The moment I said it, the moment I opened my mouth...
By the Bloody Mad Hatter.
Angela picked up a bottle that was laid at the edge of her skeleton leg bones. It says "drink me" but it's empty. Damn. It was probably useless, but it's always best to keep things for the future. She decided to take one of her leg bones (hey; she's not using it...) and use it for later. Angela looked over and in the corner of her eye to see a small blue wooden door.
The paint was chipping off, and Angela stood up slowly and curiously. She edged over to it, and immediately knew there was no way to get through. It was a bit lower then her knees, and it would be impossible to even squeeze through. She gritted her teeth and contemplated what would happen if she kicked it with all her might. It would most likely also be useless; knowing she couldn't get through. She turned around and decided to focus on the music a bit more.
"Where is that music coming from?" She thought to herself. She closed her eyes for a minute and looked down, following the sound with her ears. She walked towards the sound, and stopped looking at a wall.
She twitched one eye before looking down, hearing the music start from the beginning all over again. It seemed to be coming from a black box with a heart in the corner. It looked pretty and if someone cleaned it, it would look even the slightest bit presentable. It was something she would love to have someday, despite the whole "falling down into another world" part.
She backed up and placed her hands on her hips, tapping a foot and lowering one corner of her mouth. A vine, a shovel, a few cracked vases...
Shovel?
That's it, shovel!
Angela walked over to it and put her hand firmly on the top of the handle, getting ready to pull.
It snapped.
She closed her eyes and shrugged her shoulders, holding it anyway. Oh well, a stick, it could also be useful. Not many uses, but still a few still there!
She looked at the bone in her other hand. If she could only sharpen that, then maybe she could get somewhere. Maybe a rock?
And like an unknown force in the fabric of space, a rock appeared at her feet. She smiled to herself and wondered how she could have not seen it. It was so obvious. She mentally bopped her head and picked it up, wearing away the top of the bone.
After a few minutes it was pointed sharply and looked good enough to use as a weapon. Angela tossed the rock over to a corner with a clack and turned around to look for anything else she would need. All there was that seemed intriguing was a large tear in the wall, holding a card.
Walking over to THAT side of the wall, she reached in warily of any creatures living there. She saw a black spider with a red heart on it's back, there must be children or anything else around.
On the card, a "5 of hearts".
Angela just put it in a pocket on the end of her ruffly dress, and smiled, thinking this would also be useless, but then wondered why there would be a card in the wall...
Angela, Angela, Angela.
*!*!*
Using the end of the bone, she decided to substitute weapon for key.
She slowly inched the sharp end of it into the keyhole, and almost immediately heard something unlock.
She withdrew it and shook the door handle furiously. She sighed at the failed attempt, and banged her head on the door a few times.
Turning around, the black chest was opened widely, and she started to descend her way down the stairs.
*!*!*
It was green.
Everything, the sky, the tree, the grass, everything.
A tree stump bubbled with a strange green liquid, and she decided to take a look at it. The fumes from the outside air seemed to waft gently, but she had a hard time telling it from mist or pollution. She waved her hand in front of her face to clear an easy breathing area, and she walked towards the bubbling liquid. It seemed to not smell, but it didn't look like something she would like to touch. Then she thought to herself,
acid.
Thinking quickly, she pulled out the drink me bottle from her dress and held one side of it. She tried her best to avoid the liquid, and she managed to pull her hand away from it just as a large bubble took the place her hand once was. She swished it around in her hand, and smiled. Too much skill, right there.
She held it in her hand, trying not to risk it tipping. She turned to the left and saw a wooden door and a scanner beside it and a keyhole. She sighed, and thought more about what she was going to have to do to open it. She looked at it, and then thought of the card. Wouldn't it act the same as a key card, at least?
She pushed the card into the slot and the small light turned green.
bingo.
She turned another right, and stopped.
The Caterpillar.
Jin.
*!*!*
Jin sat there with a long pipe as he was dressed in pure white. His legs were crossed, and his eyes were closed as he blew smoke through the spider web that separated the two. He seemed to be IN the tree and one side was completely gone. He opened one eye, and smiled deviously at Angela.
"Hello, Angel"
*!*!*
"Wha... What?"
"Tell me Angela, how do you like it here, in Wonderland." He said, taking a long air of smoke from the pipe.
"Wonderland?" She said, moving to the side and turning her head to the side as well. She looked intently at him, and then realized, yes. This is Jin, no doubt about it.
"Wonderland. Have you ever heard of the old fable Alice in Wonderland?" He asked as he opened both eyes fully.
"Yes, it's one of my favorites, but... this isn't real... this is impossible." She replied to him with a thinking look.
"Oh it's very real, Angela. Your here. And unless you can find out how to leave, I guess your here forever..." He said, taking another smoke. "Unless... you can find the key."
"The key? What key?" She asked him, listening to her fullest.
"The key. It is called "The key of life" and unless you can find that key, along with the "door of spirits" you are stuck here forever. Do you like that, Angela?"
Angela shook her head and looked at him.
"I'll have to find them myself, right?"
"Well yes, unless you make some friends. Good luck with that, love, because mostly everyone here are psychotic and want you. You are the next Alice, I hope you know."
"Well where is Alice?" Angela asked once again.
"She's dead."
Angela looked down at the ground with desperation.
For she is the next Alice.
and Alice is Dead.
*!*!*
"Oh, Angela, you may need this key to open the door and get the case." Jin reached into his shirt and pulled out a gold key that hung low around his stomach. He smiled at her as he closed his eyes and inhaled more smoke.
"Can I have it?"
"Not unless you do something for me, first." Jin said, getting up from his seat and looking at her with adoring eyes... there was something else there that frightened her.
"And... what might that be?..." She said, her fingers trembling as she regretted those words that slid from her lips.
"That, my love," He reached his hands through holes in the spiderwebs. He reached over to her face, and caressed it in his hands. He smiled at her as she waited for his response.
"I want you to submit yourself to me."
Jin reeled her in with his hands as the web separated the two. He ran his hands over the side of her face with contentment and joy as his lips grazed hers gently like a butterfly rushing over someones fingers.
Angela took the sharp end of the bone and drove it through his stomach.
*!*!*
He coughed up blood for a second, and then he fell to the ground. The blood had weaved and stained grass on the ground as he had died painfully. Angela threw acid over the spider's web and it dissolved away quickly. She took the key from his neck, and ran towards the door. She tried her best not to look at the body; it would make her sick beyond belief. The door opened quickly, and the case opened with no hassle.
In it, a mirror.
I look into it, and I see myself, my brown hair is in a white headband and my face has droplets falling from one side from the last of Jin.
I am the next Alice.
And everyone in Wonderland wants me dead.
You likey? You hatey? I thank you so much for reviewing, even though it's only two...
Oh well, my other one was pretty successful, so I think this won't do too bad in the long run.
Besides, I love it to much to delete it! :)
If you would like to know who is going to be the future charactors, please, feel free to review and I'll reply. Would you like to know parts and scenes? Maybe the charactors? Or perhaps... you would like to keep it a secret.
Thank you so much, I love you dearly,
The Bloody Mad Hatter.
