My plan consists of three steps. I wait to tell Anita and Jenai while Morpheus leaves to grab a dress. I want to look particularly Wonderlandish (if that's even a thing) while he grabs it, I say the genius plan. "First, we find the wedding and hide close enough to hear what their doing. Then, when they say, 'anyone who objects to this Union, speak now or forever hold your peace' or whatever, I'm going to jump up and scream. That is step one. Any questions?" I say. Anita shrugs. "If we mess up this book I'm all in!" She says. Jenai just sighs and shakes her head. "I'm not one to be negative or whatever, but this is a stupid idea. Plus, it will ruin the book." She says. "For you!" I say. "On to step two. Alyssa will come over and you know, ask what I'm doing. I debate with her to keep her away. "WHAT?! ARE YOU INSANE?!" Jenai screams. "No, let me continue." I say. "Now, while I'm debating with her, Anita, you go and tie Jeb up. "NO, DO NOT TIE JEB UP!" Jenai shrieks. Anita shrugs. "Ok, then what?" Jenai shrieks again. "THIS IS MADNESS!!" "No" I say calmly. "It's Wonderland. And Wonderland thrives on madness." Jenai grumbles, "Why is she right?" I turn to Anita. "And last, step three. I'll try to bring Alyssa over to the Rabbit Hole. You come up behind her and push her in!" I say. Anita nods. "I'm down." She says. Jenai had given up and sat shaking her head mumbling something about jail. It's just then that Morpheus rushes in. "Children, please, Alyssa must know that I tried to stop you!" He pleads. It's hilarious to watch the confident netherling plead his case. "We will." I say. As long as he stays out of our way. "Children in the mortal world these days." He says, walking out, leaving the dress. It's a black tulle skirt with a red corset top and shimmery silver sleeves. "Pretty." Anita mumbles. "Why do you wear it?" She says. "Because." I say. She'll find out. We find the mirror room after ten minutes of agrivating searching. Jenai sighs. "This is where Jeb and Alyssa fist kissed." She says. "Shut up." Me and Anita say together. We envision Alyssa's wedding and jump through the mirror.
