It was a wonderful day in Wonderland, and Alice was making an order for a customer, all the while humming a song. Repeatedly. For nearly seven hours. So needless to say, her friends were starting to get a little confused about all her humming. "Hey, Alice." her best friend, Fergie the White Rabbit finally called out, "What's that song you keep humming?" "Oh." Alice began, the question snapping her out of the hum-influenced trance she seemed to be in, "Sorry, everyone. I tend to get like that every September 21st." "September 21st?" Hattie the Mad Hatter repeated, "Is that a special holiday outside of Wonderland?" "Not in the way you think," Alice explained, "This day carries a special meaning for me and anyone else who likes the song I've been humming." "How so?" Rosa the Princess of Hearts wondered. "Well, to explain that..." Alice began, and then paused. Had she ever suggested this idea before? Well, she made this bed with her humming, now she has to sleep in it. "...we'll have to come over to my place. If that's OK with all of you."

The three thought about what Alice had suggested. "We finally get to see where Alice calls home!" Hattie exclaimed excitedly. "Ooh," Rosa added, "I hope her family is nice." "I haven't been outside Wonderland since I accidentally brought Alice here," Fergie observed, "Are you sure it's a good idea, Alice?" "Don't worry," Alice assured her bestie, "I've told Mom, Dad, Mark, and Jenny all about you guys and everything we've done in Wonderland. Plus, don't forget who my great grandmother was." She pointed to the picture of Alice Pleasance Liddell on the wall. "You'll all be welcome." "OK, new question." Rosa asked, "How are we getting to Alice's home? I doubt any of us can just climb up the rabbit hole to the surface, except for Fergie of course." "My great grandmother thought of that." Alice explained, "Follow me!"

Once the four reached Alice's room within the Bakery, they saw a Looking Glass the remaining trio had never seen before. "It's like the Looking Glass in our pantry," Alice said, "But whenever she was needed back on the surface, all my great grandmother had to do was step through this mirror and, poof, she was home." "And she used the same method to get back!" Hattie added. "Yup." Alice said, "Welp, see you on the other side!" And with that, Alice stepped through the mirror, back to her bedroom on the surface. It was a decently sized room, with blue and pink walls, several shelves lined with various figures and books, and a twin sized bed. "Mom! Dad!" Alice called out, "I'm home! And I brought my friends over!" Perfect timing as her friends stepped out of the mirror. "Woah!" The three said in awe as they saw Alice's room for the first time.

"Guys," Alice announced, "welcome to my home!" "What is all this stuff, Alice?" Rosa asked, looking at the various items on the shelves. "Some of these are my books," Alice answered, "Other items are things that highlight my other interests. What? You guys didn't think baking was the only thing I was interested in, did you?" Admittedly, some of these items were odd to them. "What are those small, hairy dolls?" Fergie asked. "Those are my Trolls!" Alice answered, "These three are part of the Pop family of Good Luck Trolls. The one with the pink hair is named Poppy, she's the queen of the Pop Trolls. The blue troll with black or blue hair, depends on the mood, is Branch. He was once down in the dumps, but Poppy helped him find his happiness. And the blonde troll is Viva. That last one is Poppy's sister." "Is that supposed to be a Jabberwocky?" Hattie wondered, looking at a dragon stuffie. "No," Alice answered, "That's Toothless the Night Fury! He's a dragon from one of my favorite movie trilogies." "Woah!" Rosa said in awe, "What is that golden glove with all the little gems inside it?" "That's the Infinity Gauntlet." Alice explained, "It's a powerful artifact meant to store the six Infinity Stones."

Then Alice realized something, "Right! My family! They're going to be happy to finally meet you! Come on!" She then led her friends to the living room where they found her older siblings. One was a 14 year old boy and the other was a 10 year old girl. "Mark! Jenny!" Alice called out. "Little Sis!" They replied in unison. "Welcome back!" said Jenny. "How was your adventure?" asked Mark. "It went great!" Alice replied, "These are my friends, Fergie the White Rabbit, Hattie the Hatter, and Rosa, the Princess of Hearts! Guys, this is my brother Mark and my sister Jenny!" "Hi." Jenny introduced. "Don't mind us, we're just getting ready for a little something." Mark said. "And what's that exactly?" Hattie asked. "Ally'll tell you!" Jenny explained, "We're just setting it up!" "Ally?" Fergie confusedly asked. "That's the nickname I go by up here." Alice explained. "I chose to go by my full name in Wonderland since it reminded folks of my great grandmother."
