Welcome to Wonderland

Chapter 1

~I don't own Heart no kuni no Alice or any of their characters~

"Isabelle… Isabelle, c'mon, wake up!"

I slowly opened my eyes, annoyed at whoever had woken me from my napping. I turned me gaze to my left. There was a little blonde girl there. She had emerald green eyes that sparkled in the sunshine, and her glossy, sleek hair almost glowed in the mid-afternoon sun. Her pink-rimmed glasses let off a small glare into my face.

I sighed "what do you want, Tylah…?" I asked, really annoyed that my little sister had woke me up. I sat up into a sitting position as I said this.

"Well..." she murmured as she rubbed her arm "I was wondering.. if you'd play with me?"

"No" my answer was immediate.

"Why? You're not doing anythi-"

"Nya~" I mewed, putting my hand out and curling my fingers up like a cat paw. I knew she hated it when I cut her off, but I really didn't care at the moment, since I was sleepy and ticked off.

"God, you're so mean!" She hissed and stormed away

"~I hate you too!" I sung sarcastically, waving to her. I sniggered at her when she slammed the door shut.

I tipped myself over onto my back and lay my head on my arms, then sighing. "Well, I guess I'm gonna go back to sleep… it's still sunny out…" I murmured to myself, staring at the clouds in the overly blue sky.

I loved to sunbathe, it was really warm, and it made me happy-which was one very hard thing to do, especially here on my family's estate. The spot I was lying on was about the only spot I could sunbathe in peace. My family- the Reeves family- is one of the most famous and richest families around. Our estate is about a billion acres (not really, but if feels like it). Its hard to believe there only one or two sunning spots in our whole estate, but it's true.

Well, let me introduce myself to you before we continue my story. My name is Isabella Reeves, the eldest daughter of our family. I don't really like the name "Isabelle", I like "Izzy" or "Iz" better.. Now usually, being the oldest daughter would be an exciting title, but it's awful for me. Ever since I turned 14, my family has been trying to marry me off to some rich guy from another rich family. The problem with that is, I don't really get to meet the guy. I mean, he could be abusive or something like that. I don't wanna be with a man like that. My mother keeps telling me that I need to get married soon, or else no one will want to marry me and I'll have to live a lonely life. To tell you the truth, though, that sounds a hell of a lot better than having to marry someone I don't know. Well, back to the story.

I gazed at the slowly moving puffy clouds and they drifted across the sky, picking out different shapes as the shape-shifted. I saw a lion, a boat, a duck, a dragon, a wolf, a tree and a rabbit.

"Weird... That looks exactly like a rabbit…" I said to myself. It was true, clouds that may look like things have some flaw about them, but this one had no flaws at all. It could be a real rabbit in the sky, because it was that accurate.

"Hello? Miss?"

I nearly jumped out of my skin; they're weren't supposed to be any guards or servants here! I hopped to my feet and looked around, but no one was there.

"Oh, perfect. Now I'm going crazy, am I?" I sighed, sitting back down and looking forward, but I stopped dead. Right there in front a bush was a little white rabbit; nothing unusual about that, except for the fact he was wearing plaid clothes and glasses. I cried out in surprise and fell backwards.

"Oh, no, miss, please do not utter, we would not want to cause a flutter!" The rabbit whispered franticly.

I blinked. Did that rabbit just…rhyme? Very, very odd, but then again, so is a clothed, talking rabbit…

The rabbit got down on all fours and started hopping in one direction, but after a few hops, stopped and looked back at me. "Well, are you going to follow the white rabbit, or do you still plan on having a fit?" he asked me

I was still dumbfounded by the strange rabbit. "I must be dreaming or something..." I said, talking to myself, but the rabbit took it as if I was talking to him

"Oh, that's quite wrong, miss. You are very much awake right now"

"Hey! You didn't rhyme that time…" I said, blurting out of habit.

The rabbit sighed and murmured something to himself, like "not again" or something. Then, the strangest thing happened; he turned into a man right in front of me! I was even more stunned by this, that I didn't say anything when he picked me up off the ground and started carrying me bridal-style across the yard.

"Wait! Where are we going?" I asked, not very worried, since this was obviously a dream. Rabbits didn't turn into people; it must be a creation of my imagination, I concluded.

I looked at the top of his head, since I was up there from his carrying me. He had rabbit ears on him head. Rabbit ears! Seriously? Well, that settles it, this is a dream.

I looked in front of us to see where we were going, since he didn't answer me, and was surprised to see a huge, circular chasm I the middle of the yard. I really need to stop being surprised at this stuff… "Whoa! Since when is that there?" I shouted pointing at the hole with one hand and holding onto the rabbit-guy's shoulder with the other.

"Since now" he answered simply and continued walking towards it.

I started to squirm; trying to get out of his grasp, but it was no use.

"I don't wanna go in the hole!" I screamed, hoping I would hurt his ear.

He ignored me and we stopped in front of the hole.

"Okay, let's go!" he said merrily, as if we were going on a stroll instead of jumping into a deep rift in the ground.

"NO NO NO N-AHHHHH!" I screamed as he dropped me down the hole.

"Oh, isn't it fun to fall?" he said, not really asking me

"NO! What if we die when we get to the bottom?" I screamed, totally forgetting this was a dream.

"Die? Why, Isabelle, what would make you come to that conclusion?" He asked, obviously really know knowing.

"WHAT THE HELL! WE ARE FALLING IN A HUGE HOLE AND YOURE ASKING HOW WE COULD DIE! BY HITTING THE DAMN BOTTOM OF COURSE!" I yelled at him.

He didn't seem to hear me, somehow, because the next thing he said was," Ah, here we are! We're finally reaching our stop!" He was smiling widely as he said this.

I looked down and my eyes widened, we were falling into some sort of illuminating white light. I shut my eyes tight and prepared to hit the ground.
