Chapter 11: Wonderland: A Cat From The Past

"Is it safe?…"

I wasn't sure if is safe myself.

I thought about Alice how she meet the people living in the house.

I had this feeling that 6 would get hurt inside or worst?!

I can't leave him out here either, it was best that he stay with me no matter what.

We walk closer to the house, it look normal, but what about the people inside of it.

I was sure if 6 coming with me is still a good idea I have.

I promise 1 I made sure I will keep everyone safe.

I hate the life and death crap.

"Are we going in…?"

I look at 6. I didn't realize I was in front of the door.

"Oh yeah, we're going in."

I open the door, the inside look a hunted house.

I dreamed a hunted house once, it was a thrill ride.

Even if I was scared. It look like the one I saw in my dream.

It hard to tell now.

But, it life I guess.

I never thought I would be here again.

"6, stay by me close. I don't want anything to happen to you."

I let out my hand for him to hold to.

It was a bit scary to come inside.

The way it look in my dream, the smell of dust, spiders' webs everywhere you turn and the smell of blood.

It felt like I was in Silent Hill.

The place smell like blood and rust the most.

It wasn't the best dream I had, but I made it though without having a nightmare that time.

"This place…is nothing like your room Lulu…"

"Yeah, let look for the twins first and we'll get out here."

We were in a hallway, it only had windows.

I could see the forest we came from.

Am going to get use to this all the time.

I wonder how the others were going on their search?

"Lulu…what are those…"

6 look at my arm, he was looking at all the scars on my arm.

"Did someone hurt you…?"

It was along time ago that they been their.

I was worried if I tell him, he'll think I was crazy to do this.

"I made those…a long time ago."

6's face was filled of confusing.

"I made those when I was in elementary…I wasn't sure if I was under stress or I was mad at myself at the time…"

"Why…?"

"Remember I told you I had hard time with stuff. I felt like I was being useless…"

I was feeling that pitiful me again.

Before I could say anything else, we heard something.

It was that sound from other day.

It was outside, I hope the twins were alright.

My heart was jumping up and down.

It was causing another panic attack on me.

"Lulu…should we leave…"

It would be the best.

The twins would hear us by now.

We look around about half of the place already.

The smell was making me sick as well.

"Let go Lulu…."

I was with 6 on that.

Till we fall on the floor.

I hit my nose hard enough to cause it to bleed.

Reminder not to hit floors before my dog hit a wall.

"Lulu!"

"Am fine 6. I been getting hurt way to much."

Someone handed me something to wipe off the blood.

"3! 4! What are you doing here!"

I was happy that they were safe and sound.

"Wait, if you two are here…"

All were outside of the house, the sun was out finally.

6 found some paper inside and grab while he can.

I was still trying to clean up the blood.

I was wondering what that sound was.

But, it didn't come after us.

The twins show me something they with them?

"What is it?"

The show me a card, it had a heart of it.

Then it show a picture of the back.

It show 5 and 2.

I had this feeling that they must have ran into the queen of this world. I

n Alice, I remember that they were going to take them into trial.

I was scared if they done something to upset her, wait, the queen is crazy about decapitation.

I wasn't sure how long I had to get to them.

6 show me the drawing he was working on.

It was me again, I was with 5 and 2 while the others stay behind me.

I wasn't sure what was going but…I had this feeling that I was trying to save their lives.

Then, I notice a path, it lead into the forest again.

I heard music, it was a song I listen.

It was beautiful listing again.

The twins started running to the music, 6 grab his drawing and caught up to them.

I was behind them, the music got louder by the time I was running.

I notice another path next to us, I saw 9 and 7 running too.

"9! 7!"

"Lulu, you found them already."

"Yeah, they were inside this house."

The paths finally meet each other and the music got louder.

The song was clear now, I know it now.

"That song…it that love song."

I was a sucker for love songs.

They were great for ideas for stories I was working.

"That music seem…cute?"

Did 7 use the word…cute?

It wasn't long till the music disappeared, my heart was beating slowly.

9 could tell I was up set about something.

"Lulu? Can I ask you something?"

"Sure 7..."

"What animal smiles?"

What?! I had a feeling that something was going to give us a helpful hint or not.

"Well, it the all knowing cat."

The cat was gold, but it remind me of a cat I had once…I love it so much, I wouldn't let go of him.

"What wrong? You seem you're about to cry?"

"It nothing…can you tell us where our friends are?"

I ask it, he smile at us, I smile back not trying to be rude.

"You mean, the two that adds up to 7?"

"Hey."

"Yeah…"

"Well, they're wait for the rest of you."

9 and 6 were confuse, but 7 show a fearsome face.

"What that suppose to mean?"

I was worried, I think that cat was a remind of my past.

I think I was starting to think why it look so familiar.

"She promise you to be safe and then it will repeat."

"What does that mean, what do you mean repeat."

"My cat…"

I finally said something.

I remember my cat, we found him in the streets, well he found us, and took care of him and saved him.

But, I couldn't save when he was hit by car.

The cat was gone when I look up.

I felt like crying over that bad memory.

It wasn't something I didn't want to think about.

"You had a cat?"

"Yeah…he was my little buddy…it was my birthday…my family and I were going to the city for the day…I heard him meowing his little head off. But…I want to see him when got back to see what was wrong with him…but…"

I was going to cry, 9 place his hand on my shoulder.

"That won't happen. We're friends…and you know that."

Did 9 just said we're friends?

The twins and 6 smiled at me, they must have been thinking like 9 was.

"You wouldn't be going after 5 and 2 if you weren't friends."

It was nice to know that.

6 did say I look like I was hurt.

But, the pain was healing slowly as they gotten to know me better.

But, now wasn't the time to cry over the past now.

We have to save 5 and 2.

Not the best chapter, but I felt like this was too emo. I didn had cat once, it too sad to think about, but, no use of crying over the past right^^ I think I sort did a crappy job on this chapter, but I hope you all it. If this makes you cry, sorry.

5: We're not going to lose our heads...right?

Me: Don't worry 5, am going to save you and 2.

1: Then, why haven't 8 and I showed up yet?

Me: You will in the next chapter....beside...every wonderland must have a Mad Tea Party.

8: Mad what?

7:Try not to hurt 8's brain.

9: AlysonOfrell Doesn't Own Alice in Wonderland.

2: 9 BELONGS Shane Acker.

6: Remember, no rude comments only helpful ones.
