Alice's point of view:

‘‘Oh Alice, so we meet again.’’ The figure grinned, a wicked crackly laugh escaping their tainted lips as they began to twirl a freshly painted red rose amongst their fingers. ‘‘What a beautiful girl you have become, with that enchanting blonde hair and those mesmerising blue eyes.’’ They spat.

‘‘We never did finish our game, did we?’’ They asked in a rhetorical manner.

‘‘No, what a shame’’ I murmured sarcastically not daring to look into their vicious and poisonous eyes.
