Hello everyone! Happy Summer! Today we have a little crazy. Some more of my favorite from wonderland. Hope you enjoy.
Wonderland Gone Mad
Flash fiction
There was no control and
for some that was the fun part.
But for the rabbit, it
was chaos and madness that only ended up in the worst possible situations.
It all started with that
kid Alice although the rabbit wasn’t sure that was her real name. He suspected
her name was Ruby. You can’t trust a Ruby he thought.
So, here they were with
all of Wonderland running around like a bunch of crazy loonies.
The only solution was to
bring them all together for a gathering of sorts and set them all straight.
Make some of them say they’re sorry for whatever it was. It wouldn’t matter as
none of them would remember anyway.
The table was set. It was
a very long table with a tattered cloth on top. Got ripped up from the last
party. It would do.
The rabbit invited the
right ones he thought. Left out the trouble makers.
For the most part
everything was going smoothly. There was no fights and they all sat around
drinking their tea and eating their sweets.
The rabbit was happy.
Then she showed up. His ears perked but no one appeared to be too upset
by it. So he just watched her as she set down beside the faerie queen. The queen
smiled at her so that was a good sign.
The rabbit was happy
again.
It all started with the
clink of a glass against the tea pot. Those sounds are never good.
He looked in the
direction that the incident came from. Some butterfly creature was trying to
get nectar out of one the flowers on the table and knocked a glass up against
the tea pot. He shook his head and thought he should not have invited them.
His ears started to flop
down his face when he saw who entered into the party.
“What do we have here?”
Everyone looked up and
they all started to chatter amongst themselves.
That’s when Alice got up and the rabbit started to
tremble.
Alice pointed
at him. “You.”
He smiled back at her and
pointed back at her. “You.”
The rabbit started to
shake his head as the chatter got louder and suddenly music started to fill the
air and they all rose from their chairs and started to dance.
Cups and glasses feel to their
sides and tea was spilt staining the thin tablecloth.
“Get out,” the rabbit
shouted at the mad hatter.
But it was too late.
Alice and the mad hatter
started to dance and the others cheered and everyone started to join them.
The sound of the tea
party brought more creatures from the forest out. Strange bugs with many eyes
danced with lady bugs.
The dragon flies wooed
the butterflies and the faeries started switching foods around.
The rabbit ran from one
to the other, trying to get them out and then they started to form a dance line
and where headed for…
“Don’t go there!”
But they didn’t listen. “Don’t
go down the hole!”
He ran as fast as he
could and he made it. He blocked his hole.
The mad hatter laughed at
him. “You have two holes don’t you?”
The rabbit shook his
head.
“Don’t be coy with me
little fuzzy one, let’s go find the other hole.”
And wouldn’t you know it,
Alice found it.
The rabbit couldn’t run
fast enough. “Stop! Don’t you dare!”
But the silly thing
slipped and fell and into the hole she went.
They all stood around the
hole and looked. The rabbit pushed them out of the way to look. All he could
see was blackness. It was too late.
He had to go after her so
he jumped head first in.
The mad hatter grinned. “Tea
party time.”
He jumped in followed by
all the guest.
What followed was all
chaotic. Smiling cats and a queen with a paint brush in her hand that was
dipped in red was chasing everybody around.
They all laughed and
where having the time of their life.
The rabbit sat in the
corner watching the madness.
Now, how was he going to
get them out?
