"Wake up... wake up!"
I open my eyes and am greeted by an unfamiliar sight. Instead of waking up in a back alley, I was in a small empty room; a room that I recognized.
"This is..." I stand up and look out a nearby window. Judging by the height, he was in a skyscraper: the tallest building in the city he was transported to. The city below looks like a toy model settlement that someone built from where I'm standing - the buildings were miniscule from my perspective. The city is split into two by a large river, big enough for cargo ships to go through it as they head towards the ocean.
"Am I... home...?" The door behind me creaks and I sharply turn around at who it is.
It was a young girl, about Illya's age. She had platinum blonde hair styled in a hime-cut with a white band with a white bow. Her outfit consists of a black bow, blue dress, white socks and red flat shoes.
"*Gasp!*" The little girl rushes towards me and gives me a hug."You're finally awake, onii-chan!"
I tilt my head. Why is this girl acting so familiar with me? Does this girl know me?
The little girl sees my confused face and pouts. "Geez! How could you forget about me so easily, onii-chan!?"
"I..." I tried to form the words, but my train of thought was suddenly derailed by a sudden influx of knowledge. "Alice."
The little girl, Alice, smiles brightly. "Yay! Onii-chan remembers me!"
"Of course I do." I patted her head. How could I forget her? The little girl that wandered into Wonderland. The little girl who has been with me since I could remember.
'Wait, what?' I shake my head at the weird thought. "Alice," I pull her back and look at her in her ocean blue eyes. "How... how are you here?"
Alice giggles. "Gramps said that you'd have the memory of a goldfish, onii-chan. But I didn't think you were this forgetful."
"Gramps?" I said.
Alice grabs my hand. "C'mon!" She guides me out of the room and into a massive hall, the largest I've ever seen. It looks ancient yet the dim red lighting made it oddly captivating to look at. I turn to the walls to see multiple creatures doing various different things; sitting, talking, flying around, eating, sleeping, and other mundane things people do.
"What the...?" I mutter trying to comprehend what I'm looking at.
"There he is! Hey, gramps!" Alice calls out and waves.
The entity turns around and walks towards us.
I instantly recognize the being in front of me. "Y-You're-!"
"You sure took your time to wake up." Khonshu grumbles. "If you hadn't woken up, I would have gone to that room myself and nuked your sorry ass."
"Uhhhh..." I have no words to respond to that.
