"Kamui."
Kamui opened his eyes and after wracking his brains for a moment remembered who the man sitting next to him was. As his vision cleared, Kamui thought he saw a red crown on Kakyou's head but the man quickly reached up and brushed away the fall leaf that had landed there.
"What… happened…?" he asked numbly.
"You were dreaming." Kakyou answered softly.
Kamui pushed himself into a sitting position, trying to banish the blurs of color and madness that still haunted the edge of his vision. "It was… just a dream?"
"Yes. Just a dream."
"But… if I can see you then does that mean I'm still dreaming?" Kamui asked.
"You are."
"Oh." Silence stretched on for a few more moments then at last Kamui asked, "the most important thing… do you know what it is, Kakyou?"
The fair man shook his head.
"Wait- you saw the dream right?"
"Yes."
"Where did Fuuma go?"
"What do you mean?"
"When everyone gathered at the end, where did he go? Why wasn't he there?"
"He was."
"I didn't see him anywhere…"
"You couldn't see him."
"I- what?"
"He was there." Kakyou assured him.
Before Kamui could say anything else he woke up.
"Kamui doesn't know who he is." Kakyou said softly and looked up at the man in glasses standing over him. "Kamui doesn't know who he is." He repeated.
The man smiled sadly and agreed.

Notes:
While Kakyou doesn't appear specifically as an Alice in Wonderland character, I meant to reference the Red King by having it look like he's wearing a red crown with the leaf. (I've seen a couple of beautiful pictures of him with fall leaves.) In the book, they say that the Red King is asleep and this is all his dream.
"It's like I'm looking from a distance / standing in the background / everybody's saying, he's not coming home now. / This can't be happening to me. / This is just a dream."
