ELISE SNOW, ever after high.

XVIII | WAY TOO WONDERLAND (PT. 4)

[I'll be skipping a lot of parts and only show the parts of the girls and the trio. Once I finished this book, I might edit this out later on and add the missing parts]

A card pushed the girls inside the detention room after the trial. They let out grunts and groans as they stumbled on water. There they saw a bull/turtle who who woke up from its nap. "I am the Mock Turtle. But, do not mock me. For I am as every bit as good as a real turtle. This is detention, there is no escape!" The Mock Turtle immediately went back to sleep after he introduced himself.

"Quick! Let's escape!" Kitty told the girls and they quietly tip toed over to the door, to which they opened and went inside to. Sadly, it was the same room with the same Mock Turtle as before. "What? No, it can't be! We're right back where we started!" Apple exclaimed, confused about what happened.

"I'm getting tired from all of this Wonderland school stuff." Elise sighed, slumping her shoulders. They tried to leave once again, but the result was the same. "There's no way out!" Briar said. "I'm so, so sorry that I brought us to Wonderland!" Raven apologized.

"It's not your fault, Rae. Maybe there's still a way for us to leave here." Elise assured her best friend, putting a hand on Raven's shoulder. "My mother... I can't save her from Courtly. There's nothing I can do!" Lizzie sobbed, her hands on her face, while the girls comforted her.

The seven girls all stood in silence whilst being stuck in detention. Lizzie saw the clock hanging on Kitty's tail ticking. "My mother's birthday party starts  in only a few minutes. Is there no way to escape from here?"

"I would teleport out of here to get help, but my powers aren't working." Kitty demonstrated by trying to teleport which only failed. "See? No good." She slumped her shoulders down.

"You all have studied here before right? Is there like some place that you guys know of that can maybe help us escape?" Elise asked the girls from Wonderland. "Not really, considering this is Wonderland and where everything's mad, there's not really a specific place or thing that can stay put and help you escape." Lizzie's answer only made Elise let out a sigh.

"This could take a hundred years!" Briar exaggerated, holding both of her hands together.

"Aww, chin up, you can sleep right through it, Briar." Maddie joked, letting out a chuckle while Briar only groaned. "We just need to stay calm and think about the problem logically. Maybe there's something in this room that could help us escape or give us a clue." Apple suggested to brighten the mood of the room.

"I'll go check the books. There might be something written here that tells you the escape routes." Elise started browsing through the pages book by book, but it's not really helping with the fact that it was mostly about detention, school rules, and lessons. "Well, this sucks."

The giant clock displayed in the room ring loudly, startling Lizzie. Raven then accidentally stepped her foot into the icky water. The teapot from Maddie's hat started whistling and flying off across the room. It hit the sewer, letting some of the dirty water dropped on Raven's face. "Ew. This place is extremely icky. Somebody better think of something fast."

"We tried everything"

"And the only door out brings us back in."

"How can we stay here forever when we can't stand it for only a few minutes?"

"We will really be here for life!"

"That's longer than forever!"

The girls started causing a chaos and tried finding more clues while panicking at the same time.
