Chapter 4

'Cause nothing's as it seems...

I woke up early as expected, my eyes still droopy with the remnants of sleep. I look around in a daze, still pressed against someone's chest.

As my mind slowly comes to, so does my vision allowing me to see the weird world outside this cave like structure we were inside. I shift slightly, trying to get a better look.

"What are you doing?"

I look at Pan with a look of exasperation, "What do you think I'm doing?"

Pan rolls his eyes, shifting to look outside as well.

"Bloody hell..." He muttered to himself.

Outside the cave, a beautiful yet strange place lay. Large mushrooms replaced trees, twisting pathways intertwined as sign did their best to confuse travellers. It was—

"A wonder..." Pan spoke breathlessly , his gaze still on the land before us.

"Wonderland."

"This isn't time for jokes, Ella." Peter scolded.

"No. I'm serious. This is Wonderland."

Panic rose in both of your chests, Pan hiding his well.

"We need to get out off here," He says aloud, making a move to get out of the place we slept for the night.

"What if there is something out there?" I ask, but he ignores me walking outside.

I follow him shortly after, admiring the place a bit better. I notice a small flower near my foot, moving to pluck it to show to Peter, he lunges at me.

"Don't touch anything!"

I jolt as he grabs me away from the flower which appeared to be a weird beetle. It shrieks at us before trodding away.

"See." He points out.

"Right," I press my lips into a thin line, internally berating myself for my naive tendencies.

"We need to get out of here."

I stayed silent, knowing he was right. We had to get out of here.
