(Alice's Wonderland 1923.)
An unfamiliar location.
Alma slowly opens her eyes, as a blurry image in black and white in front of her. At first, she couldn’t hear what the blur said until it spoke louder.
??????: Alma... Alma! Wake up,
Alma!As her vision cleared, Alma recognized her horse, Button, before her eyes.
Alma: Ow. (Rubbing her head.) What happened?
Button: Thank the Lord God to the heavens and the earth, you’re okay. You… Are okay, right?
Alma: A little. I really hit my head hard though; I'm going to have a bump on my head.
Then, Alma was shocked to see her horse, Button, talking to her while Button was shock as she spoke to her rider for the first time.
Button: Did... did I say that? Was I really talking?
Alma: Button, I don't believe it. You were talking!
Button: No! No, that's impossible! Everyone knows animals can't talk!
Alma: It's... it's gotta be...
Button: A magic spell. Well I'll be.
Alma: (Laugh.) This is so amazing. Here I am talking to my horse, Button. Ah, live never seems to amazing me. Now, the question is where exactly is here and why are we all black and white?
Alma and Button looked at themselves to see they've lost their colors and everything around them was black and white, causing her eyes to go wide.
Alma: But now I know we're definitely not in Horseland, California anymore!
Then, Alma and Button noticed a little girl named Alice (Virginia Davis) on her way to see the animation studio.
With introductions on the line, the trio visits an animation studio, where the animators (including Walt Disney) show them various scenes on their drawing boards. A few of them: a cat dancing to a cat band; a mouse poking at a cat until it moves; a cat and dog boxing, while the animators crowd around cheering and acting as corner-men.
That night, as Alma and Button slept with Alice (with her mother's permission of course), they dreamed of taking a train to cartoon-land, where a red carpet reception awaits. They appeared in live action. They have a welcoming parade, with Alice, alma and Button riding on an elephant. The cartoons dance for them, and the trio dances for them.
Meanwhile, the lions break out of the zoo. The lions chase the trio into a hollow tree, then into a cave and down a rabbit hole.
Finally, the trio jumps off a cliff and awakes back in her bed. While Alice is woken up by her mother, and Alice tells her mother about her strange dream as Alma and Button listened...
But the adventure was far from over.
And so, Alma and Button went on many adventures with little Alice from Alice's Day at Sea (1924) all the way to Alice in the Big League (1927).
Suddenly, everyone heard a strange sound and turned behind them. A large pillar of light, with magical energy, shot down from the skies toward the ground. They covered their eyes from the light, before the pillar disappeared leaving a large, strange symbol on the field.
Alma slowly approached the symbol, examining the image glowing with bright light. It was the same symbol from The Book of Disney's cover.
And so, Alma gave Alice her oath that said:
No matter how far apart we are, we'll always be with each other. Even if they can't see each other.
And so, Alma and Button entered the pillar of energy and appeared to be pulled into the air. Alma looked at Alice one last time and waved goodbye. Alice waved back as Alma and Button went into the sky as the pillar disappeared and faded in the distance.
Once again, Alma and Button swirled through reality, space and time, screaming for their lives as they flew past several stars.
Now, back at Horseland, California, The Book of Disney, that laid on the center of the huge crater, opened up as a blinding light emerged. Suddenly, Alma and Button, now back in full color, popped out of the book piling on top of one another.
Yet as Alma noticed, it seemed not much time had passed since they vanished.
Alma was happy to be home again. At the same time, she couldn’t help but miss her new friends.
Suddenly, The Book of Disney began to glow as streams of beautiful aurora golden lights began to emerged from The Book of Disney and shot the ground.
Suddenly, without warning, the grounds of the Earth began to shake as an enormous, elegant, enchanting castle emerged from the ground in all it's glory.
As Alma and Button entered the castle, admiring the beauty as they noticed a beautiful golden pipe organ in all of it's beautiful glory.
Curiously, Alma approached the golden pipe organ and sat on its chair while Button watched.
Alma cautiously pressed a few keys as beautiful melodic sounds erupted from the pipes.
And so, Alma began to play a simple melody while Button smiled warmly at the beautiful melody of the golden pipe organ as The Book of Disney stood on it's wooden pedestal.
