Wonderland In Ruins

Chapter 11: Sweet Surprises!

The three of them are looking at me, the Hatter is smirking.

What?

I look down at myself and realize that I'm sinking back into consciousness.

Goodie.

I'm never going to get used to the random pattern this World has in bringing me into, and out, of it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My eyes open to catch the last of the sun.

It's 6 o'clock already? Geeze.

I speed down the stairs to get dinner.

Fried chicken? UHM yes please.

I walk up the stairs slowly and slide into bed.

Still planning.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I awake to a start. My nightmares have been getting worse.

The clock says 3am.

The witching hour.

I giggle. My life has become a cliche horror movie. STAHP.

Lying back down, a picture is burned into my memory.

Me, 6 years old, on a swing set with a blank expression on my face.

Wonderland..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There was a knock on my door.

I groggily get up and open it.

"Alicenne!"

My ears hurt.

I am then being hugged by 2 pairs of arms.

uhhh

"Dylan! Matilda!" I've become elated.

My very best friends are here!

~Side note: I'm not so crazy and far gone as the other children here, so when I have visitors, I can be alone with them.~

Matilda holds up a bag and squeals with excitement.

Let the fun begin..
