Feeling the oxygen leave her lungs, her eyes closed with such a tightness, no one would be able to pry them open.

. . .

A distant ringing of an alarm clock, her eyes groggily open, a groan escaping her form as she sits herself up.

Another day. Another twisted dream.

Her body hit the ground, like her body dove into the bed of fall leaves that decorated the ground.

On the other side was no more than darkness, holding her breath like she was drowning within water. Trying to break out from this realm, to cross back over. .

Alice's eyes shook. A hand placed over her mouth as she could only scream within her mind.

A wonderland , yet a _________ .

The prey, her parents and little brother.

Maimed, and made dinner by these creatures, these beasts.

She stepped away, tripping in the process.

Those creatures bit and chewed through the intestines, like some disgusting dish of spaghetti noodles.

Their hands cracked open their prey's ribcages, allowing them to pull their still beating hearts out.

Crushing them, and allowing their juices to fall delicately into their mouths.

Red eyes, disgusting and malformed faces of beasts. Their faces stained a scarlet ichor, hands drenched in a fresh red 'ink'.

Their claws sunk deep into the corpses of three. Intestines pulled out of victims who long had the light ripped out from their being, from their vacant eyes.

The woods were thick and dense the deeper she went inside of the woods.

Exploring more and more, reaching the deepest parts.

'SNAP' 'CREEACK!'

Loud, sharp noises. She peeked her eyes through the bushes, the sight bewildering.

"Don't venture too deep into the forest." They always said whenever she went out to go play, to explore.

Yet as she matured, she cast doubt upon their words.

One day she woke up, her family gone.

Finally, she decided to head deep into the forest, since no one was around to tell her otherwise.

As a child, Alice was told countless times never to go into the forest. "There are monsters in the woods." They chimed.

"They'll do awful things to you. They'll hunt you down, then us." Such warnings would easily scare a child.

/ Motivation is low, sorry for the absence. . It's probably going to last a while.

Working on other muses in the background though.

Take care.
