Barely two days had passed since Alice became ruler of Wonderland, and she was already wondering what was going on up on the surface.
The creatures of Wonderland had already begun fearing her, saying she would turn out just like the Fat Queen.
Alice, of course, knew this wouldn't happen.
I think I'll take my first diplomatic trip to the surface! Yes, that sounds rather nice...
Alice stood and walked toward the door, which led to the forest, which led to the tunnel, which led to the surface.
Goodbye for now, Wonderland.
Alice traveled through the forest and finally reached the tunnel. At the very bottom of the tinnel, where Alice was, a letter signed Cheshire B. Cat lay there, adressed to Alice.
What's this?
Alice read the note, her look of happiness turning to one of anger.
Why, that little...I must go to the surface right away!
Alice stepped into the tunnel, and it carried her to the top, the tree opening for her.
Now, where is- oh, God!
Alice looked around to see the trees dead, along with the grass... The field was on fire next to her house... Or what used to be her house! It was now just a pile of stones!
Oh, dear!
Alice walked gracefully to the horizon, only to see more destruction.
Oh, Cheshire Cat-what have you done!?
"Hello, Alice."
Alice breathed heavily, fear overcoming her face.
She turned around to face the terror that was behind her, as black ash from the burning field clouded her view.
"I hope you like what I've done with the place."
