"Flashing lights and we, took a wrong turn and we
Fell down the rabbit hole
You held on tight to me
Cause nothing's as it seems
Spinning out of control" ~ T.S.

I paced back-and-forth in front of the driveway waiting for Luke to arrive. An erie feeling creeps up on me as a twist my silver bracelet. The silver cello at the end with this tiny heart bead. As the sunsets, the air gets crisp. A black Ford fusion 2015 pulled up. It's Luke. How do I know this, because Luke has that blond quiff hair and the sea blue eyes. He motions me to jump in. And so I do. Never felt so alive, so secretive. But hanging with Luke was always fun. Something I rarely ever get to experience. He pulled out of my driveway and down the road. Left turn right turn. That's when Luke skids to the right once more. My hands fly to the dashboard, as Luke tries to straighten out the car. He spins around once more and the back smacks into a tree.

"Crap." He mumbled. He runs his fingers through his hair then looked at me. "You alright?" He ask. I shake my head and nudge open the crunchy door. "I am so so so sorry." He says getting out, me following right behind.

"It's ok, really. I ain't hurt, am I?" I say gesturing to myself. He smiles then pulls his phone out.

"I guess I should call police." And with that he walked a little ways then stopped to have a conversation with a robot voice.

I look to my left and noticed tire tracks. That's were Luke must of whipped us. I thought think back to the precise moment I almost thought my neck would snap. As I arrive closer, I noticed shattered glass. Shivers race up my spine but I ignored them. My feet sink in the dirt below me, covering my black flip-flops. As I near the tire tracks, I spot a silver glint across the grass.

Instinctively, I walk over. Luke calls for me to come back but I keep heading toward the glint. I approached and nearly threw up.

There in the cold mud, lad my dead looking body. Red hair matted to my head by thick blood. My lips shot purple. My bracelet clung to my left wrist. But my body was nearly in the hole, like it owned my body. The hole was wide enough for someone to crawl through. Ideas crept up my mine, but I forced them back. My green eyes dart back and fourth at the scene.

My hand flys up to my mouth as I let out a horrifying shriek. Luke grabs my arms and pulls me into a hug. So that way I wasn't able to see my body anymore. Sobs racked my body and I kept whispering.

"I can't be dead."
"I can't be dead."
"I can't be dead."
"I think I am going mad."

Luke rubbed my back and cried with me. "I am so sorry. I should of told you when it happened."

I looked at him confused. He sighed and said,"Alice, I'm dead."

I chocked. Luke patted my back hard and I started coughing up some blood. "What?." I whisper. Sirens fill the back round and the night air instant as welcoming.

"I died. And now I am stuck in WonderLand. And now so are you. See, your going insane. Its all in your head." He motioned his hand to the body that nearly fell into the hole.

"That's WonderLand?" I ask pointing at the hole.

"Yeah." He says.

"And that's were you...you...lost your mind, the...there?" I shuddered out.

"Yeah. I did." He says once more moving closer to the hole. I follow. "Well, your going to have to get use to being insane, so," He says grabbing my hand and positioning himself over the hole.

"Welcome To WonderLand."

Then he jumped, dragging me along.
