kept walking to her, my body. Ice blue eyes stared at me when I came near, and I finally stopped cold.
My voice rung as it spoke from my empty body. It was a gentle voice, as sweet as a baby's gurgle, and I couldn't talk like that. "Rowan. Its been awhile." The light around my body dimmed, but Rowan Louise tried to move, my body's hands twitching.
I heard a gasp from someone as two pairs of running footsteps came to a stop behind. At the same time, both of us looked towards the gasp. A flashlight passed right through me, like I was a ghost, which I technically was. Tears started to fill my eyes when I heard Other Me speak. "Lupi! Han!" Turning slightly, I saw her struggle to get up. Hana and Lupin's eyes were staring at her, Lupin looked relieved and Hana confused.
"Ugh! Help me, please!" Rowan Louise whimpered. Before they could move, I was talking to her, "You have magic, too. Use it." I stared at her hard, using the same technique for the door and with all my mental power, I lifted her half way up before my friends came over. "I can. They can. Your welcome. Now give me back my body."
Hana was there in front of me before I could finish.Something really hot went through me. I cried out. Hot, too hot... Then, Hana went behind me and I felt something REALLY hot got through me. I fell to the ground, crawling towards the old, Other Me. "Rowan, I'm giving you a break! Take it seriously. Figure things out. Right now there's a serious danger." Hana crouched down in front of me, "I'm sorry. I was just curious..." Her eyes were sad, but they looked through me. She couldn't really even see me.
The tears that had filled my eyes before where overflowing. They hit the pale ground, the only visible thing from me. What should I expect, I am and will always be invisible to you, I thought to myself. It was all so strange, and I didn't know what the heck was happening. I shook my head, and as the tears kept falling, I started to get sleepy again. Hana....I reached out to her, and I watched with self-disgust as she shivered at my touch. I fell into a different darkness.


Alice




I didn't wake up this time. The darkness was too deep to escape. In the darkness, I awoke to a dark sky. Though I just woke up, it wasn't like when I woke up to the sun or I awoke in the cool darkness with Hana and Lupin. This kind of dark scared the crap out of me.
I sat up, looking around. Trees seemed to come out of no where when I look down into the bottomless hole I sat on. The air around me, was dark like dirt. It reminded me of my favorite book, Alice In Wonderland. My smile didn't last long, I remembered Loki, and watching my body move without me in it. And Rowan Louise, the Other Me, the one that's from the past. At least that's what I had thought...
My legs pulled me up, and I almost fell from stiffness. I looked down, trying to balance myself. What I saw literally almost made me topple over, but not from clutziness. Instead of my silk nightgown, I was wearing a blue satin dress, and on top a crisp lace apron of silver. I lifted the hem to see black ballet flats, my hair coating my cheek. It layed in a twist with a matching silk bow. I felt my heart leap as I thought of Alice. Looks like I filled her slot.
The trees I saw earlier were physically there now, and footprints jotted out in front of me. They looked like.... You have gotta be kidding me! I threw up my hands in disbelief. Of course, of course they were rabbit prints. I rolled my eyes, and took a step towards them. Why not just go along with it? Why pass up an adventure? At least sarcasm was still on my side.
As I followed the Rabbit tracks, there were more things off the path now. It reminded me of old dreams. Little birds with scissors for beaks and squirrels with dusters for tails came out to watch me. Other animals were more unique, like geckos that lit up and moved like slinkies, or deer that had stilts for legs and hat racks for antlers. My favorite was the butterflies that looked like china cups.
It was a while before I stopped walking. That's when the tracks stopped. I blinked, and I yawned. I started to look around when I stopped. I yawned again; huh, no sound. Weird... It seemed like I was still in 'spirit form'. I still wasn't used to it, and I felt real enough, so that really was bizarre.
All of a sudden, a giant building appeared before me. It was as silver as my apron. It was beautiful, white rose bushes surrounding a great marble arch. The windows were bowl like, and I edged closer, I was amazed by the craftsmenship done to the perfectly etched walls. I blinked, amazed by how just the building caught my attention.
I walked closer till I pressed up against the carved marble. My hair looked do much darker than it usually did, but then again, my skin was pretty darn paler when I heard two familliar voices. I edged around the corner, and as I looked past the stone, I let out a gasp.
Tristian and Lupin looked up at me from the giant table they sat at. My gasp was audible...I tilted my head and yawned to myself. Yepp, I had voice. I looked back towards them and had to cover my mouth before the hysteria building inside me bursted. Lu was a dog. At least, half-dog... he stared at me with those deep gold eyes. His rose was covered in the pie he sat eating.A tail swished back and forth behing him, some red streaks visible.
The table was set with fancy china and all types of treats. My hysteria stopped when I looked up at Tristian. His dirty blonde hair wasn't curled, but waved off to the side. A silver top hat was perched on top, covering most of the hair, making his eyes look hypnotizing. What? Tristian's eyes were.... mauve...
My feet moved cautiously away from the wall, and towards the table. Their eyes followed me, and I felt self conscious. When I looked into those mauve eyes, I felt sort of disgusted. What were they up too, getting me into this? Then again, this was just a dream... Right?
Lupin looked up at me as I walked closer. His gold eyes were like diamonds, and his wagging tail had me laugh. All of this, just the dream in general, made me hysterical. My head craned back as I laughed harder. It was difficult to breathe.
I heard them laughing too while I tried to compose myself. Lupin was the only one howling. When I finally regained my composure, I looked back at them; I almost laughed out loud.How odd. They both had poker faces. I tried so hard to control myself from bursting out again. Slowly, I took a breath, "Hello."
They looked as though they hadn't remembered what had happened only awhile ago. It was odd, but I couldn't care less at this point. "Welcome back Rowan!" Lupin was the first to speak. He jumped up from his chair, revealing ruddish paws.
" Welcome..." Tristian muttered. Just then, I didn't give a damn that his eyes made my knees shake. I wanted to shake the crap out of him. Especially what had happened to me. I stared at him coldly, but his gaze held mine steadily. By my side, my fists clenched.
Lu held a chair out to me, and briskly pushed in when I sat. It was the first comforting thing since I woke up.
It was quiet as I watched him pour me some tea. Tristian was making himself at home by getting a slice of pie; I watched him out of the corner of my eye. Sadly, my stomache grumbled at this point. He looked at me sharply, which I ignored.
To Lupin I said, "Could you please explain to me what the hell is going on?"
"Manners! We are in Wonderland you know!" Lupin looked aghast. I snickered at this.
"Please tell me what's happening, sir." I had to sneer at the title. I couldn't help it! It's just my second nature...
Lupin pouted. He looked at the tea cup he held. Opening his mouth, he whispered,"I don't know what's with you Rowan. After you just came back, too..." He looked on the verge of tears. I suddenly regretted my words. I hated how I made him look like that...
I reached out to touch his face when a hand snatched my arm. Lu flinched back. Warm breath tickled my neck and cheek as Tristian spoke softly. His voice was so cold, so calm... so dead...Right at my ear.
"Don't touch my dog, Rowan. What gave you the smallest idea that you could touch him?" My bangs blew away from ribbon, hiding my eyes.
"You want to know? You're out of control. You've set Him free once again. You've caused them all pain, by not remembering and giving up." his voice trickled with poison. It felt like ice water was going through my veins. The hand that touched me scorched the skin, making my heart race.
"Damn you..." I whispered. It wasn't even audible, just a puff of wind. The tears that were in my eyes earlier came back, sliding off my cheeks. Crap.Why...Why do I feel this way?! It tore me apart, feeling so abused. For the first time in my life, I felt back stabbed... I hated it instantly. And then I knew he could tell and feel what I was thinking. He went still.
Tristian threw my arm, leaving a mark. He turned away, walking back to his chair. His brim hid his eyes, but his voice carried over.
"Where should I begin? Lu? What do you think we should tell our little Rowan Alice?"
Lu looked at me with sorrow, but his voice clear, "Everything."
Tristian looked up, his brim no longer hiding his eyes. I gasped. He smirked, chuckling without humor. His eyes burned with heat and coldness, and silver.
"Well, Rowan. Someone favors you. Welcome to Wonderland. I guess you can call me, The Hatter, for now." But when he raised his tea cup, his eyes seemed to try to tell me something. They were so deep. "Welcome." I realized Alice, was amazing, story world and out.
