Welcome To Wonderland Babe. Do you know our darling Alice? Oh really, have you seen her lately? All of wonderland has felt the misery of her leaving. At least, most of us. We've just not been the same since. Well, do you know what we did next? It was mad, I tell you, simply mad. 'Rabbit Holes' were opened all over the world! Slowly, children began to trickle in, drawn by Seekers, cards who's job it was to find young boys and girls and lead them here. It was going just fine for a while. The children would come, explore, have fun, and then they'd go hope at supper time. Everything was fine and dandy, until he showed up.
Oh dear, I suppose we really should have expected this. I mean, the Rabbit Holes were always open, just in case a child should happen to wander in. Nobody expected somebody a little older to fall in though. What his name really was, who knows, but we called him Joker. As in that card that rarely gets used in games, but when it is, it tends to beat everything else? Yeah, that Joker. He was probably 18 or 19. It was enough though. His mind was old enough to warp our beloved Wonderland. Many of it's animal inhabitants, including the Cheshire Cat, grew human forms, so they could switch back and forth at will, and all seemed to be growing up somewhat. Exchanging childish ways for a more adult point of view.
Now you might say that this could be a good thing. The good guys, the ones who always wanted to help the children, would simply grow even kinder. Wrong. Because see, there are no good guys in Wonderland. Everyone is mad, simply mad. All Joker has done is twisted our madness. And take over, too. No longer does the Queen of Hearts rule our beloved place, though she was a cruel and spoiled lady, but now Joker does, merely keeping our Queen as a pet.
And now teenagers are falling into the Rabbit Holes, drawn by Joker. Oh deary me, what shall we do? We all know the mad thing to do, but then, our definition of mad has changed drastically. Well then, what would you do?
