A single fight, out of multiple that left him in tears. I shall wish thee life away... away from this silly place people call reality... A voice in the dark whispers sweet nothings, that means nothing to anyone and everyone. He ran away, far away from him. The him in question is Alfred F. Jones. The one crying is Arthur Kirkland. Arthur, the one running, came across a willow tree dancing in the wind. Arthur sat there just crying and... wishing for better. Wish, wish, wish all you can just you watch and you shall see be careful what you wish for.

*********

Arthur sat there, underneath the willow tree for a while. He was about to go when his friend Roderich ran past muttering something. It was something like "Oh dear, I'm late! I must get going or it's off with my head!" Then he just ran off dropping a book full of music sheets.

"Roderich, you dropped your book!" Arthur called after Roderich. Roderich didn't hear nor did he really care for he was late. Arthur decided to run after him to give his book back to him. Roderich was different somehow... maybe it was his bunny ears and tail? Anyway, Roderich jumped into a hole and unfortunately, Arthur couldn't stop running and fell down, down, down.

*********

He landed in a vast room with 2 silver statues, one with devil-like qualities and the another with angelic qualities. Arthur got up, dusted himself off, then the statues came to life and advanced towards him.

"There will be enough of that." A voice said coming from the shadows of the dimly lit room. The statues quickly hurried away down a hall that glowed with candles and as they went past the candles went out one by one. Then 2 people stepped out of the shadows onto the balcony above him, one with brownish-red hair and... sunglasses on? Anyway, the other with pinkish-blonde hair and blue eyes a pinkish tinge.

"Who are you?" The guy with brownish-red hair asked taking off his sunglasses showing his piercing red eyes then he walked down the stairs with the littler man following him.

"I-I'm Arthur, who might you be?" Arthur said backing away slightly.

"Allen, your scaring him." The one with the pinkish-blonde hair said.

"Oliver... Are you sure we can trust him?" the one who is most likely Allen asked.

Oliver just turned his head slightly to the right and smiled and said "Of course we can!"

"Okay. Anyway, follow me." Allen said to Arthur then he turned and walked down the hallway opposite of the one the statues went down.

*********

"This door leads to Wonderland." Allen said.

"Thank you." Arthur said being polite."
"Oliver thinks your trustworthy..." Allen said handing Arthur something "Here."

"Thanks." Arthur said taking the item being given.

"Oh and Arthur good luck you'll need it." Allen said before turning and walking away.
Arthur pushed open the door to wonderland and never once thought of how he would ever return... He will later on because of the mischievous Cheshire neko.
