Author's Note; Err, this is shorter than I wanted. Mostly due to the fact I had an important idea for chapter three~ e.e So I had to move this along and get it out of the way. I feel I'll be to OOC for Julius and Gray, so I apologize if they're not seen much… Nightmare I'm making him well as my friend does with more nice-ness to him. (She doesn't like making him so nice~ xD) Oh, send me PMs if you have any ideas, if you don't like reviewing, or if you just want to guess what might happen next~ (Enjoy the few people who have read and liked it!)

Chapter two; A day at the clock tower

"Good afternoon, Julius, Gray, Nightmare!" Alice spoke in a chipper mood, pulling me into the clock tower. I sighed heavily, eyes half lidded as I looked around. "Good afternoon, Miss Alice." My head tilted to the side. It was an unfamiliar voice, oh wait… I frowned. I really didn't know much about the people in this world… "Oh, Gray! This is my friend, Kiana. Kiana, this is Gray, he works for Nightmare."

I looked up to him, long lashes fluttering in my view, not fully closing my eyes. "Err… H-Hello, it's nice to meet you, Gray…" He nodded his head, soon asking if we wanted anything to drink. Alice just responded saying we'd take some tea before he walked off. I wouldn't doubt he'd ask Nightmare about me; after all, he'd most likely get more information from the dream demon than he would from me…

I groaned softly, my eyelids becoming heavier as we walked. "Ugh…" Was I passing out? My head felt light… Before I knew it I was surrounded by nothing but black. Grunting shortly, I lifted myself into a sitting position. My eyelids opened and soon half-lidded as I blankly stared ahead towards the dream demon known as Nightmare Gottschalk.

"Good evening, Kiana~" "Ugh, the time's already changed?" He laughed softly. "Yes, it has." He responded, watching me run my hand through my hair. He wasn't always so… nice. He had his moments of good and bad. He seemed to be in a good mood today… What happened in the first place…? "You passed out." Ugh! Stupid incubus and his stupid mind reading ability…

He laughed again, floating at an odd angle over head. "Alice caught you before you hit the floor, so no head trauma." "Yay… Lucky me, I won't be stuck looking at you until I'm better…" He frowned lightly, holding his hands in the air as his shoulders gave a small shrug. "It just seems your immune system is weak. Pierce has a cold, and well, it appears since he liked hiding behind you, you caught it. Looks like you won't be heading to the Hatter's Mansion or back to the Heart Castle anytime soon…"

Speaking of the Heart Castle… My eyes wandered towards my body, seeing new clothing on it in place of the maid's uniform. My eyes widened lightly, cheeks turning a soft pink. It was an oddly short silk night gown, silver cloth shimmering against my pale skin. It was short sleeved and had a gold trim with a black bow in the middle over the chest area. "What the hell?"

He snickered, watching my reaction to the new clothing. My brows furrowed, trying to hit him. "You tell me what happened!" I hissed, glaring at him. "I have to admit, I didn't think he'd buy something so skimpy, but Gray bought it… and, well, you can figure out on your own who undressed you…" He floated a bit further away from me, already reading my thoughts. I wanted to kill him…

An innocent smile crossed my lips. "You'll tell me what happened!" I hissed as I pounced on top of him. "Get off of me!" He yelled back, struggling to remove me. I didn't budge. He was sickly, I was healthy~ I had the advantage… or so I thought. "Your nightgown's lifting~" I squeaked, quickly getting off of him as I cursed under my breath.

"Well… Looks like you're waking up…" He spoke, his grey eye looking away from me and off into the distance. My head tilted in slight confusion. "I'll get you in the real world~…" I spoke a little more cheerful than I expected. "na…? ana…? Kiana? Kiana! Are you alright?" My once heavy eyelids flew open, staring into the blue eyes of Alice Liddell.

I put on my usual grin, scratching my head. "Yeah, I'm fine… How long was I out for? Nightmare told me it was evening, but I'm sure it's past that now…" No one really knew how long the time would last, or how long dreams really lasted. A few moments with Nightmare could be an entire day in the real world. It could be a bit frustrating at times.

"It's morning… Nightmare informed us you got sick… I don't know how he knows, since he hates doctors… But I got you some medicine! Take it once a day until you feel better… Alright?" My lips pursed, sticking my tongue out as I took the pill from her. If I didn't take it myself… she'd force me to. And I really didn't want that to happen… Sipping the water from the glass, I swallowed the pill.

Soon I walked out, with a lot of help from Alice, heading to the breakfast table. Before we even made it into the kitchen, my hand was clasped over my nose and mouth. There was black awful smelling smoke emitting from the kitchen. "Dear god… What is that?" A bead of sweat rolled down Alice's cheek. "G-Gray… I told you it'd only take a moment…"

Gray had a somewhat frustrated frown on his face, sighing in defeat. "I'll let you finish everything up then…" A pink was somewhat flushed across his cheeks, taking the pink apron off and handing it to Alice. Nearly bumping into me on the way out, his golden hues looked down to me. "Are you sure you should be out of bed, Miss Kiana? Lord Nightmare informed us that you were sick… Shouldn't you be resting?"

I waved my hand back and forth, sticking my tongue out. "No!" His brow arched, but decided not to take the conversation further. Grinning in triumph I strolled into the kitchen. "Alice you should let me…" I spoke. "But you're sick…" She protested. "But Alice…" I whined like a little kid. I loved cooking! Well, sometimes… Other than when I absolutely had to for Peter, I liked cooking on my time.

Alice looked at me sternly causing me to frown. "Yes, ma'am…" I said sulking out of the room. She seemed confused by this statement. "But you're older than me!" She yelled from the kitchen. "Yeah, by a few months…" I retorted. "Still older." I rolled my eyes, sulking into the area Julius always worked on his clocks. My eyes immediately landed on a sickly man sitting in front of the fire place. "… You!"

A familiar groan sounded through the air, the man under the blanket turning to me. "Stop being so loud! I didn't get much sleep last night…" I put my hands on my hips, leering at him. "That's hard to believe, considering we were talking for so long in my dream…" The sound of a pot hitting the floor echoed from the kitchen. Soon I ran in, seeing if Alice was okay.

"Allliiiccceee!" I said, highly over dramatizing her name. "It's nothing; it was just too high…" Alice responded, looking at the cabinet that was opened. I didn't hear much, but I could understand she was muttering something like 'How did it get way up there?' Not completely sure though. "Gray is right though, go back to bed. I'll give you your food when you wake up, okay?"

She smiled at me, but I could see beyond that. She was concerned for my health, she always has been. "Fine…" I muttered defiantly, trudging back to my room. Maybe I could get some sleep without Nightmare bothering me… He seemed pretty awake in the other room… I slowly crawled back into bed, grumbling that I needed to get a new nightgown when I woke up.

Staring at the ceiling, I thought. 'It's hard to tell what those three think… Nightmare seems like a Gemini, one second he acts like he hates me, the next he acts like nothing happened… Okay well, not quite the next moment, but his attitude does change regularly, around me anyway… Julius and Gray… I can't even fathom what they might be thinking. Oh well, I guess.' Finishing my thoughts I closed my eyes. It didn't take long for my thoughts to be clouded, finding myself in dream land sooner than I expected…

So what will happen when she wakes up? What do Julius and Gray think of her? How did she end up in Wonderland? Oh so many questions!

None of those will be answered in the next chapter; next few chapters, maybe, but not the next. :D Just wanted to tell you before you got your hopes too high.

I HAVE come up with an idea of how she entered there, it's something beyond what people will imagine~

Okay, so it's not too hard to figure out if you pay attention to things but, I'll leave that to your imagination.

Small info for next chapter; It's been said early on that Alice and Kiana are close, but how close are they really?

It goes a little further into that relationship without going too far off the building storyline (Wait there is one?)

Once I get 10-20 reviews, there will be no further acceptance of possible pairing. (Meaning, once the bar hits 20 and there's an over whelming amount voting for one person, I'm most likely going to pair her with him. Now if say Boris and Ace both have like 10 each by twenty, the twenty first will be the tie breaker! Or until someone says one or the other u.u)

Okay, I write too much. Wait and see what happens next time~
