Chapter 6
Constance and I sat in silence, staring at the four walls solemnly. The walls seemed to enclose us, looking down at us scornfully for invading their master's haven. I carefully traced the patterns, on the wall ,onto my dress with my fingers.
" Alice, dear, lets go to Wonderland now. I need to clear my head." Constance stated. She pressed her fingers on her temples.
"No. Ann says never to go to Wonderland without and escort." I repeated Ann's words.
" Alice, let's just go without that escort nonsense. We can spend time together." Constance persuaded. There was,somehow, a tinge to desperation in her voice.
"Ann said Wonderland is a dangerous place. Let's tell her first." I tried to convince my stubborn sister.
"Alice, can we please go for just half and hour and we will be back. I promise." Constance stated as a matter of fact.
I pondered over her statement for a brief moment before agreeing. It's only half an hour right?
"Good! Father and that Miranda is leaving for Berkshire this afternoon. That leaves us plenty of time!" Constance smiled as grabbed my hand.
I pushed aside the love seat, revealing a trapdoor. It was locked with a titanium lock. Carefully, I placed a small key ,that I had strapped on my tigh, inside the lock and twisted it slowly. The lock unlocked and landed with a loud thud on the floor. Constance and I grabbed the rusty handle of the trap door and lifted it up. Below the trap door, was a spiraling abyss.

Hand in hand, Constance and I jumped, out feet leaving the ground, as we fell into the rabbit hole.
The colours around me swirled. Pink, blue, yellow , lavender. A bunch of furniture had someone found it's way into the hole. I was apparently sitting on a firm mahogany armchair.
" Constance!" I cried.
Silence was my reply.
" Constance!" I cried again, this time even louder.
Still no reply.
The armchair landed safely on the checkered flooring. I got up and looked around, alas, there was no sign of Constance. I walked down the curious hall with many locked doors. Each was different.
"Help! Alice!" I hear Constance scream.
I turned around to find a tall stature of a man watching me curiously . Towering around Six foot one, he had a crooked grin on his powdered face. He took of this overly large top hat and hot tea spilled out of it. I let out a yelp as the hot tea came into contact with my arm.
" Coming to Wonderland without an escort Alice ? What a shame, we wouldn't want you and your friend to miss the tea party." he said mockingly.
"Hatter. I do not want to join the party. I want to see the white rabbit." I said firmly. Ann always says that if you see any mad citizen of Wonderland, never show fear. Those idiots take it as madness, as if your one of them
