"Alice." A voice called.
"Alice."
"Alice, come back to me." A voice full of pain and desperation called out.

A young girl was walking inside a forest trying to find her way back home when she saw a white rabbit run pass her. She was curious as to why the rabbit was wearing a monocle and walking on its two hind legs so she followed the white rabbit. She could bet she could run faster than the rabbit, when they reached a river the rabbit quickly leaned forward into a crouching position
In all fours and crossed the river using the log. As was trying to balance her step trying to fall and get herself when she stepped on the slippery side and fell of the log landing on the running river. The young girl was trying to keep her head up trying so hard to not swallow and water and keeping herself afloat. She was kicking the water to try to lift herself up and flailing her arms trying to move herself towards land.
Her vision started to get cloud, she was slowly losing her breath, and her body was freezing from the cold water. "Will this how she will die?" She thought as her strength slowly leaves her body. When suddenly an arm was around her waist quickly hoisting her up and trying to make her stay awake, but before her strength left her she saw the most beautiful eyes she had ever see. It was like seeing the stars she loved dearly.

Eyes quickly opened squinting from the bright light she closed and opened her eyes again. She sat up and realized she wasn't in her room anymore. She surveyed her surroundings, white walls with intricate gold lines, a giant crystal chandelier in the middle, a painting stood across from her.
A face so familiar, he had dark midnight hair, his eyes were the most beautiful eyes she had ever seen. It was as dark as his hair with little golden flecks, it made her feel like she staring into the universe itself. The person in the picture looked so familiar but she couldn't pin-point where she had seen him.
''Welcome, Alice,'' A dark voice whispered. Alice turned towards the sound and saw a man sitting on a chair. He was wearing long sleeve polo and pants she had never seen before.

''Where am I?''
''I am called Nightmare, I'm a demon and we are inside the Red King's bedroom when he was a child.''
''What?'' What is this weirdo talking about? Demons don't exist and who's this Red King?'' Alice all but demanded. How did she even get here? She couldn't quite remember what happened after she went home from work.
''Well, you better start believing because they exist especially here.'' Nightmare deadpanned.
''Here? Where is here? How did I get here?'' Her eyes widened as realization dawned on her like a bucket of water. "You're the one who pushed me!'' She accused.
Nightmare raised both of his hands, feigning an innocent smile like he did nothing wrong.
''I just gave you a push.'' He clarified.
''Push?'' Alice's face scrunched up in confusion her previous anger gone.
''You were destined to come back here.''
''You haven't answered me, where is here?'' She demanded anger rising again.
Nightmare gave her a soothing smile. ''Wonderland.''
''Wonderland? I have never heard of that place, please!-just let me go home! If you want money I can give it to you,'' She pleaded. Her fears consuming her, he might rape her or worse kill her if she-
