The splash of water woke Erin up... he thought he heard his name. It was so clear.

"It's Alice!"

No, not quite.

"Not quite."

Who voiced his thoughts? Weird. Erin sat up on a shallow pool, wearing his school uniform, but... it wasn't wet. His hair isn't wet either. He fell down the wall and into a sinkhole... why is he suddenly in a shallow pond surrounded by trees with butterflies as flowers? While staring at himself through the pool, he wonders why he suddenly has blue eyes. It was originally brown.

Not only that... why is the sky red?

"Alice?" Erin looks behind, only to scream and scramble against the water and away from this person.

"!!!" It's Alex! "Get away from me!"

"What? Alice, why are you scared?" Alex still has blonde hair, but his eyes are red instead of blue, and his outfit is weird. It looked to be from the Victorian Era; white with red and gold accents, and... Alex actually looks very handsome with a classy tail tied under his usual blonde shag of hair. He's extending his white gloved hands towards Erin, who is trying to get away from him.

"Finally, you've come back..." He asked, which weirded out Erin even more. This place... it has giant flowers, floating mountains beyond with waterfalls that turn into vapor before they can hit the ground. The sky is bright red, and it looks like a nightmare.

"What are you talking about, Alex?! Where am I?"

"Alex?" He laughed with the most gorgeous of smiles, "My name is Ace, I don't know who this Alex you're talking about. Knight? Something is wrong with Alice..."

"Knox?!" Erin gasps at the other familiar man who is also wearing a somewhat modern Victorian Era clothing with a leather military coat and very dark blue shirt, with a black eyepatch and his black hair looks longer. He still has a walking cane, but it suspiciously looks like a sword. He looks like a military Prince, straight from war with an eyepatch and a stoic face.

"My Queen, if you haven't remembered, I am Knight, the Jack of Clubs," he kneels for a second before standing up and holding his hand towards the blonde, who is looking at Erin suspiciously. "This is Ace. Your King of Hearts."

"M-my what...?! I'm what?!" Erin stares at them in horror, refusing to accept their help. Only then did Ace notice the short hair and quite flat chest not usual for a young lady. "I'm... I'm not who you think I am... where am I?! Why is the sky red?!"

"Something's not right..." Ace scans Erin's body with a white-gloved hand, noting that this Alice isn't wearing the wedding dress she left this world from. This dark-haired Alice is wearing men's clothing, and the shallow waters partially hide that detail. "Knight... are you sure this is Alice...?"

"Ugh, I am not Alice!" The young man stands up and tries patting the water away—or lackthereof, since he was not wet the slightest. He angrily faced the men who undeniably looked like his bullies. "My name is Erin! You should know me as the Little Bug you keep bullying!"

"Bullying?" The King of Hearts looks confused.

"My Lord, this person looks like Queen Alice, but... he's a male."

"A younger brother, maybe?"

Eric yells out, "You bastards, stop messing with me and just tell me where I am!"
