Al in Wonderland

Locked In

The sun shined brightly as he went into the mushroom woods. He found himself astound by everything.

With a smile he was greeted by large fat lightning bugs that curled around him and lit his way in the easing darkness.

A bunch of smoke filled the air very soon. He coughed, it smelled of burning petals and leaves, he couldn't help but waft it away with coughing followed shortly after.

He couldn't see through the thickness and bumped into a large wing falling over on it.

"Oh, my," Al slide over as it lift up and into the air.

He fell softly onto a furry body and heard the puffing.

"...Uh," the face soon revealed as a large butterfly's.

He got off with its help and went around slowly to its front,

"Uhm,"

"Who are you?" The butterfly asked with a deep calm voice much like a gentleman's.

"Uh... I am Al..." He replied to the question with slight ease.

"Al? You must be mistaken, you are not simply Al, you are Alice." The butterfly fluttered his wings seeing that the smoke hurt him.

The pink-purple smoke cleared and he breathed easy again.

"No, I'm not Alice. I'm not a female," he said feeling insulted.

"You are not?" The butterfly brought out some spectacles and put them on, "Ah, I see, you are not Alice if you are not female." He said wisely.

"I just told you that, did you even listen?"

"That is beyond my care, why are you here? Who brought you?" He asked keeping calm and breathing out some smoke into the around him.

Al couldn't help but cough, "Can you stop that! It hurts," he said.

"Hm?" The butterfly stretched its wings high.

"I followed a rabbit here, he pushed me through the door and I fell. So here I am!" he said not even believing it at all.

"I see," he put down the smoke pipe and flapped his wings grabbing hold of Al by the torso and arms,

"W-wait!" he wasn't very comfortable with heights.

The butterfly flew high in the sky and Al could see where he came from.

"What is that?" He saw the pillar of light shooting out from the tree he came from,

"That is known as the Waren Portal, in which you and Alice both came from." He answered of free will as it shook and broke.

He gasped, "Do not worry, one Alice can be here at a time. No more,"

"Why?"

"The world would be unbalanced if two Alice's where in Wonderland at the same time. You are a curious one." The butterfly said.

The butterfly flew to a large tower.

"Where are you taking me?" He asked seeing the tower.

"If you are not Alice, you must stay here," he placed him on the balcony with an endless fall. "You must not leave, for this battle is not your's to fight ." The butterfly said with caution,

"Battle?"

"Your curiosity will only get you killed, Young Master Al, harm must not befall you." He said flapping his gorgeous wings,

"Wait, what should I call you!" He called out as he flew away.

He turned to Al who now stood on the balcony, "My name was once Caterpillar, but now you can call me Butterfly." He called back and flew away.
