Simply Madness [Discontinued]

Chapter Nine

~•Maddie•~

I tossed the knife up and watched it spin for a split second. I had to have this all perfectly timed.

Right at the last second I opened my the rabbit hole and created a puff of smoke to give off the illusion I was "teleporting". The rabbit hole is the only mode of wonderland transportation, that doesn't leave a trail you could easily follow. But unless it was hidden in some way, it could easily be tracked. I was in the human world again. It been a while since I've been here, from what I actually remember.

I made my way to a dark alley way and studied the humans. I need to see how they acted and what they wore.

After a few hours I used the madness to create an illusion, so I could blend in with the humans. I now had on a black and blue striped hoodie with fluffy cat ears, ripped black skinny jeans, black and white converses, and a blue tear drop necklace. My hair was no longer striped, but rather it was black with blue tips. The only thing that stayed almost the same were my eyes since the only difference was that they didn't really glow anymore.

I transferred my madness to the necklace so I could keep focused, of course I kept some of the voices. I and as long as no one else wears my necklace, unless I want them to, the madness will be 'disabled'. Now all I need to do is find a place to stay and possibly acquire their form of currency, incase I might need it later on.

I decided to look for and abandoned house in the woods first, so that I wasn't too close to the humans. It's not like I had a problem with them, I just don't like being around them for too long. I've heard rumors that since there one of the lowest creatures, they've started wars amongst themselves. Now that's insane, what kind of creative would start a war over petty things like land or possessions. Back in
Wonderland everyone practically shared everything. They even divided themselves amongst land, the funny part is that because of this they started even more wars.

I don't really hate all humans, of course, it's just that sometimes they seemed like complete idiots. I know that we had the big war between The White Queen and The Queen of Hearts, and I can't really justify that. All I can say is that it happened before I was born, and I can't change it.

I eventually stumbled across an old cabin, that looked pretty easy to fix up. I found a few useful tools and some wood, so I got to work. I had a pretty good idea on how the humans build their houses, I mean I would probably be staying here for a while so I wouldn't want my house to look too different.

~•Time Skip 2 Weeks•~

I finally finished the house. Now I'm observing the humans and how they act. I decided that before I blended I would have to know how to blend in.

So far I've learned that at my age humans are apart of this 'organization' they call school. I also discovered that they have these 'mini wars' within these schools, I honestly think it's unfair since it's usually the bigger humans versus the smaller ones. Once I learned that I started training again incase I would need to defend me or my allies. Yes, I planned on making friends, I hope it would help me blend in.

I kept observing them for a few more weeks. I managed to 'borrow' some money from people who probably won't notice it. I got more clothes and what I need for school. I decided to attend to hopefully make friends. I mean I've pretty much mastered their language and terms. I also got a phone so I could contact people. I pretty sure I'm all set.

The next day I got up and put on the clothes I arrived here in, I decided to float until I got close to the end of the path. I was actually nervous that people would question where I came from, and I would spill. But I've been memorizing all the fake information. I was also worried about my appearance since that seemed to be everything to the humans.

I wasn't that bad looking anyways, I have my black hair with blue 'highlights' and electric blue eyes. I didn't really like to show too much skin. And I had my bangs wrapped around the back of my head in a mini ponytail with the majority of my hair down. (A/N: The pants have a black material behind the rips)

I walked up to the school, I noticed that people started to stare, probably wondering about the new girl. I didn't really care. I also decided to keep my madness in the soul stone and I taught myself how to transfer it back to myself if I were to lose the necklace. I found my way to the office and got my schedule.

1st: Language
2nd: Pre Algebra
3rd: Music
4th:  Shop
5th: Advisory
6th: Lunch
7th: Life Science
8th: World Culture
(A/N: She's in middle school or 7th grade. This is my younger brother's scheduled too, so yeah.)

I made my way to my locker, which was pretty close to the office, then I tried to find my first class. I heard the bell ring signaling that class has begun. I decided to look for a few more minutes, the I knocked on a the closest door. I was called in and then the teacher asked, "What brings you here Miss. ..." he trailed off not recognizing me.

"Maddie," I began, "I'm new here and got lost. I was wondering if you could help me find Mrs. Holtz's room?" I asked.

"I know where that is, I could take her." A girl in the front row offered, she seemed nice. Maybe we could be friends.

"Sure, Rachel. I'll write you two a pass," Replied the teacher.
She stood up and took the passes handing me mine, as we left.

"That class is on the entire other side of the building, how did you manage to get all the way over here?" She asked, curiosity evident in her eyes.

"I was never good with directions, I even got lost in my own home when I was little." I said embarrassed, that wasn't lie. I mean I lived in a castle, I was bound to get lost in it at some point. We continued to talk and get to know each other as we walked. This might not be as bad as I thought it would be.

Sorry for the late update. I've also been trying to figure out a more exact plan for it and find a cover for it. And if you'd like, you can make me one, I'll of course give you credit on it and in the description. That all I can think pf for it now, so by until next time.
