Go off on your own.

You were not sure if you could find your way through the forest...but you felt certain that the Knight was not to be trusted. There was something so terribly wrong with him and, though he made as he might help you, you did not trust that.

Something that frightened you.

There was something there lurking behind his handsome guise that frightened you. Something...dark about him and you wondered...what did he actually want with you? Nothing good. Nothing that you wanted. So rather then go with the Knight...

You refused his offer.

"I'm sorry. I have to go."

He looked shocked at you reply and you almost felt bad...but that awful feeling grew still and you knew that this was the right choice. Turning away, you began to walk quickly down the path, wondering where you ought to go. And Allistor...

Allistor began to laugh.

Softly at first and then much louder, a deep laugh penetrating the cold air of the Wild Woods. It was angry and amused and so very, very unnerving. Why was he laughing? What was he doing? Turning about, you looked back at the knight, wide eyed and so very confused. Allistor shook his head, looking at you with his pitch black eyes.

"Alice!" He said. "You just don't remember!"

Remember? Remember what?

He had acted like he'd known you before...he said that you were different...and now he was saying that you didn't remember...

Oh, why was this knight so strange!

He turned around, the blackness of his eyes burning into you.

"You never do...always different, always new...and you never remember." He laughed again, shaking his head. "It's best that you don't. But I must teach you again, dear Alice."

"Teach...teach me what?"

He didn't answer.

Instead, he stormed forward, arm outstretched as he reached out for you as though he meant to grab you. You never gave him the chance. You ran.

Bolting down the path, the knight was right behind as he shouted into the night,

"Alice!"

You kept running.

Heart beating, mind racing, screaming. Down the path you ran and ran, praying to the gods of this so-called Wonderland that you might lose him.

Allistor was right behind you.

Furious, wild, screaming. He was so, so close, his voice ribbing through the cold air as he chased you down. The gods turned a blind eye tonight...

"Alice!"

"Get back here!"

"It's not safe!"

"The game must be played!"

"I'll keep you safe!"

"The rules must be followed!"

"Alice!!"

He caught you. Hands grasped you and pulled you back into his chest, arms wrapping around you and holding you tightly. You screamed and struggled, fighting against his mighty grip and he...he laughed. Wickedly, loudly, his caught slicing into the night air like a sword.

"Alice," he hissed in your ear, "come along, dear. We have to go home!"

Into the darkness you went, Allistor dragging you away as you screamed and screamed.

Whatever this game was...you did not want to play it. But something told you that it was too late for such a wish to come true. You were in Wonderland now and, for better or worse, you were a player in this terrible game.

You are...Sour Alice! Allistor is pretty annoyed with you right now, dear. But once he sits you down and teaches you the rules of the route, he's certain that you'll behave better...won't you?
