Alex in Wonderland 6

Previously...

In court the proof was interesting to say the least. They kept calling her "Alice". This Alice person sounded very naughty.

There appeared to be "Alice" clones wreaking havoc wracking up multiple crimes in Wonderland.

The Caterpillar claimed Alice took all his shrinking sides of the mushroom so she could gobble everybody up! But he was looking suspiciously well-fed..

And a last shocking photo made Alex exclaim "You aren't even in the right story that's Goldilocks stuffing her face with porridge!" Of course the courtroom exploded in mayhem.

Alex took the opportunity to slip out where she found the White Rabbit having tea. The trial had dragged on so long she was quite grown up now.
"Oh hello" she said pleasantly, "You are still here?"

"Of course!" Alex exclaimed, "I was in jail! On trial!"
"Oh you could have left at any time, they are nothing but a pack of cards.."
Alex turned to look back and..

...the Rabbit was right.
A hole began to form at her feet.

"I suppose you're off again then, where will you go?"
Alex smiled "I guess I'll find out when I get there!"

Alex in Wonderland 5

Previously...


Plummeting down a hole to a previously and always boring wonderland..

..the White Rabbit arrived to find it somewhat exciting. Clangs and @#$%&s filled the air.

The Red Queen was off her rocker. She was either making an axe or a new set of iron pointed press-on nails.. both were equally useful to her.
"Off-With-Her-HEAD-Off-With-Her-HEAD!" rang out with every hammer slam.

Some sort of jury was assembling at the courthouse and a VIP (Very Impertinent Prisoner) was in residence behind the jail's looking glass.

"Dormouse!" White Rabbit called, "Can you see her?"
"Yes" he called back, "and she looks quite mad!"

After being finger-printed and shod in the Red Queen's own designer line of red prison sandals..

..yes Alex was quite mad! She fumed to herself thinking almost out loud, whatever was going to happen had better happen or she was going to make something happen that was certain!

Alex in Wonderland 4

Part One, Part Two, Part Three...


After falling through a pleasant sky, Alex landed..

soft, safe, too safe.. it wasn't any fun at all.
"A frown?" a Butterfly spoke surprised.
"Why?" she asked, "Is everyone here perfectly happy?"

The Butterfly sighed and landed on a golden pear,
"Take it, you'll be happy you did, it makes you be what you want to be, and works in case you ever find you aren't what you are."
"But I already am what I am.." she exclaimed.
He fluttered off without a sound.
She put the pear in her pocket.... just in case.

She looked around the strange place. "What lovely leaves!"

"Shhhh.. Yes we love pretty leaves!" a lady there whispered.

Alex reached down- "..here are more!"
"Oh no.. only the perfect ones, none that are flawed or different in any way.." the lady shh'd and whispered.
"But that's what makes them special, unique!" Alex wanted to leave, she was being shushed constantly and there was something perplexing about the place.
She inquired as to the location of a hole.
"She would know," the lady gestured to the sleeping form...

"but you can't wake her. We believe our lives are her dreams, so we don't want to risk disappearing."
"You would rather be the dream of another than risk lives of your own?" Now the perplexing thing was clear.
"Of course its safer that way," the lady whispered, "she dreams and our lives are perfect, flawless..."

Alex had to find her own hole out of there, but how..? Then she remembered the butterfly and the pear.
If I believe I am the kind of girl to make her own way out without any help at all...
She took a bite and wished to be that girl... and it worked.

A hole opened. It was a quiet perfect unwonderful wonderland and she couldn't wait to leave. Alex dove in.

Her life was flawed, full of holes (of course!) but she loved the mystery, the twists and turns.. except.. some twists were stranger than others..

Alex in Wonderland 3

Part One, Part Two..


She hadn't seen the green blobby things from above. They looked cozy and soft...

...but were neither as she crashed into one.

They were also much larger in person. The biggest one had a lovely visitor centre with food court and conference rooms available to groups.. but that's not important..

Alex took a moment to freshen up and dislodge twigs and leafy things.

"What are you looking at?" the lizard said, "never seen a green spotted lizard before? It's rude to stare."
Alex had to look around for a bit before she noticed him perched on a sink.
"I had not noticed you until you called attention to yourself so how can I have been rude?"
"You are staring now," he said in a smug way, "and you are also late!"
"For what?"
"The party! You better get moving! It's that way!" He flicked his tiny tail in a general direction.
This might be important, she thought, so I better run! She stumbled forward and somehow arrived...

"Who could possibly have fun in a room like this?"

"Well lots of people!" a smiling greenman said.
"Well I just crawled out of a green leafy thing moments ago, so I am not in the mood for a party in another. I think I am on my way to somewhere.. and keep getting side tracked. Is there a hole nearby?"

He pointed down. "How about that one?"
"It's far too small.."
"Why not stay for some tea? We serve a lovely Green Tea."

Alex looked into the teapot
"There are 'things' in the tea."
"All green tea has green turtles in it!"
"Not where I come from.."
"Where do you come from?"
"Question is where am I going?"

The smiling greenman pointed in another direction.
"Now that is a good hole, but there is always a line.."
"Curiouser and Curiouser!" Alex was on her way again.. maybe it would be the last stop to somewhere, maybe another stop on the way to everywhere..

and it was worth the wait.

Alex in Wonderland 2

Part One is here..

Being flung down holes was so Alice-like her mind was still on the subject when upon arrival in the new land..

...the bounty of white roses gave her an idea.

Maybe just sprinkle them red..

...but things soon changed



A bearer of light and apparent maker of holes appeared and asked her politely to move along, as this was a calmly sedate sort of wonderland and she seemed most mischievous.
"Any chance one of those goes to a nice spa?"

Soon she was plummeting toward a world of holes..

...and then was falling downward in a pleasant sky.
"I never thought I'd say this to myself," she thought, "but I do hope I get wet or else this landing is going to hurt.."

Alex in Wonderland

She was minding her own business one evening when she slipped..

..and fell down a rabbit hole.

"This is like something I've read before.."

She walked up to the mushroom..


...and the Caterpillar behind the desk showed her to a nice room.

"Oh wait!" She suddenly remembered the book.
"But my name is Alex, not Alice."
"Oh?" the Caterpillar said, "Then you fell down the wrong hole."

A new hole opened behind her
and she felt herself being sucked in.
"Now what?" she sighed.
