Storyline
Alice Liddell, at only the age of 6, found a world of particular fantasies, where animals were equal as men. Going to this wonderland though only twice, she knew this place was no mere figment of her mind.
Though being denied that Alice's adventures in "Wonderland" were supposedly "dreams", it was one matter she considered false. 16 years after, she began her search for the rabbit hole she had first taken to wonderland. Though 6 months of returning to the hole, nothing changed.
Until one golden afternoon, she heard something inside of the hole, the sound increased. A man came out of the enlarged hole, wearing a tailcoat, gold pocket watch, and oddly, had snowy white rabbit ears sprouting from the top of his head.
Considering what both the man and Alice had just witness, they were both speechless. Though White instantly knew who she was. "Alice?" He questioned.
"Mister...Rabbit?" She questioned back.
That was 4 weeks ago.
White has been shot in his own home, his love, Alice, being taken.
The Lion and the Unicorn fight over the White King’s widow, the White Queen. They both seek the throne, and the Unicorn may join any side to gain her crown.
The Red Queen and the Queen of Hearts have designed a large plot to take the White Queen’s throne by means of murderous usurpation. The Duchess, meanwhile, seeks help to kill all three in the form of her cook, her footmen, and a mock turtle who believes its beauty can be restored.
The White Queen, pure and kind, has the help of only two people: the March Hare and the Mad Hatter, her messenger and Guard Captain respectively, who try to protect her in times of crisis. To save the White Queen from all of this, they’ll need more than just plain luck.
The worst part?
The White Queen has no idea of any of this.
Locations ((More might be needed if necessary.))
Entrance
After the rabbit hole is the the hall of doors, a long, seemingly endless stretch of a sterile white hallway, with matching doors on either side, the doors seem to all lead to the same place though. There is one odd door, quite small, it leads to Heart Castle.
Pool of Tears
A large body of salt water, formed by Alice when she had cried while being quite large in the hall of doors.
Caucus race
On the shore where the pool of tears ends, is the caucus race, held by Mr.Dodo, people will race around in a circle to become dry from being in the pool of tears. At the end, Mr.Dodo assistant, Ms.Lory, will hand out the prizes, comfits to all of the "winners", which happens to be all of the people in the race.
Tulgey Wood
A vast forest that seems to run though much of Wonderland, it is home to many of its inhabitants. At the most northern point, is where the houses of White, Marche, and Hatter lie, along with others.
Duchess's Home
To the western point of Tulgey Wood, is the duchess's home, a small, quiant house, the area around it reeks of pepper, often her footmen are either locked out, or do not want to enter.
Hearts Castle
A large elaborate castle with many piercing spires, with a hedge maze at the entrance, red rose garden inside of that, and a green manicured lawn for croquet.
White Castle
A lavish castle, created out of white marble, with a gate-garden of pure silk white flowers. Every part of the castle is bathed in the hue of white.
Red Castle
A gothic styled castle created out of dark red stone. After the front rot iron gate is a simple red carpet leading up to the front entrance. Red covers the castle in a dark, ghastly color.

Played By: Miss Lovely Rita
Personal Name: Gwendolyn Fehér
Titles: Your Majesty, Ms. Baa-baa [Sheep form]
Physical Age: 17
Side: White
Occupation: Queen
Personality: The Queen is an odd thing; she barely understands what goes on around her.
She has an odd ability which lets her unwillingly change the area around her to another location, and can turn into a sheep if she becomes flustered. She is very kind, warm-hearted, and loving to everyone, and views them as her children, especially Alice.
Her shawl, which resembles a giant sheer ribbon, is very important to her, as her mother gave it to her. The White Queen views the Lion and the Unicorn’s conflict for her as simply a battle over ‘her famous plum cake’, which she makes for them once a day. She is a widow, but acts as if she was unmarried for all of her life. Also, The White Queen, for some odd reason, thinks she's 101 years old.
She is very confusing in manner and speech, as she lives backwards.
Also the essence of purity, the White Queen, despite being a widow, is still a maiden.
History: The White Queen was given the throne by her mother, and married her former husband the White King when she was of marriageable age. Though they never consummated, and the White Queen never noticed his importance to her, the citizens of Wonderland took his death as devastating, while she floated through life. Naïve, kind, and innocent, she bakes a single large plum cake for her suitors [the Lion and the Unicorn] every day, and is kind to the other Queens, without knowing any of their intentions.
Skills: Baking, etiquette, addition, running [she’s a Queen chesspiece]
Weapon: None
Hobbies: Knitting, drinking tea

She wears a simple little chesspiece-modeled crown, and a hand-knitted robe made of wool. She always wears her sheer shawl that resembles a huge bow-tied ribbon, with a brooch fastened at the neck; the loops of the ‘ribbon’ rest on and bare her shoulders. Every piece of clothing is white, and her skin is very pale. Her hair is white, as is her irises, and her fingernails/toenails/tips of her eyelashes are painted to match.
Role: The March Hare
Played by: Miss Lovely Rita
Personal Name: Marche Franziback
Titles: Haigha [by White Queen], Hare [others]
Physical Age: 21
Side: White
Occupation: Messenger, errands-man
Personality: Marche is a self-proclaimed ladies’ man, and will do anything he can to please a charming young lady [especially his employer, the young White Queen]. Every March to June, he flips from a calm, debonair gentleman to a frothing-at-the-mouth lech, which dwindles as the months as the months pass by.
History: The last so far in a line of hares serving the White Kingdom, Marche is a total player who was unfortunately stuck in a state [along with two friends] where he always needs his tea-break, by the Queen of Hearts. This denies access to many attractive young women, save his boss, the always-ignorant White Queen. He’s her messenger, and he is dedicated to protecting her.

Weapon: A huge-a** mallet, which he pulls out of nowhere.

His eyes are navy-colored [bloodshot in March through June], with thick black eyebrows. Marche wears a scarlet-colored suit-top, with a white undershirt, ribbon-tied with navy-blue leather cord. He wears black slacks, oxford saddle-shoes, and white tea-gloves. He has a light-brown hare-tail, and two large ears that are 1.5 feet wide, and, when slightly perked up, reach his ankles in length [they drag on the ground when they aren’t perked up]. His feet are also human-like, but somewhat large in proportion to his body.
Role: The Cook
Played by: Miss Lovely Rita
Personal Name: Eileen Tinker
Titles: Miss, Ms. Pepper
Physical Age: 32
Side: Duchess
Occupation: Cook
Personality: The Cook is generally very quiet, unless if she runs out of pepper. Then, she goes into a mad rage; her taste buds are horrid from accidentally sipping soups while they were in a boil, so pepper is the only things she tastes any more.
History: The Cook was a normal maid who was hired by the Duchess to cook soup broth for her sickly little son. However, as she had to live off it too [since the duchess wanted to prevent the Cook poisoning it], she would accidentally sip the broth when it was too hot, so her taste buds were fried. Her tongue could only taste pepper, so she began to add more and more into it. Due to her love for pepper/her horrid tongue, she has been promised by the Duchess to have her tongue fixed, and, if that fails, all the pepper she could ever want. She once had a romantic relationship with Marche, but it became tumultuous after she nearly died from internal bleeding.

Personality: Hatter tends to be introverted, however if you mention anything that has to do with killing,torture, or pain he will gladly spend a few minutes with you. Hatter gets easily sidetracked but keeps a level head, which is odd considering the White Queen's confused manner; he never smiles and is afraid of rabbits. Hatter views the world as a giant battlefield and treats it in an animated way.
History: The 13 year old Hatter was raised by a widowed mother and lived on a farm that they inherited after his fathers death. Money was tight and the landlord threatened to take their house if the three-month late payment wasn't at his doorstep the next day. Irritated that this fat, and often drunk, man demanded what his mother obviously could not provide pissed him off his rocker. The next day, Hatter most definitely had the payment this fur ball deserved; as the landlord opened his front door, scratching his flabby chin, Hatter pulled out a revolver and shot the b*****d twice in the head.

FAQ
[This is for those questions that show up very often.]
Q: What are the sides?
A: There are five:
White- Alliance with the White Queen.
Red- Alliance with the Red Queen.
Hearts- Alliance with the Queen of Hearts.
Duchess- Alliance with the Duchess.
Other- Alliance with a third party or only one's self.
Q: Why are OCs under heavy consideration?
A: Look up 'mary sue' in Wikipedia, if you must. We don't want any 'White's brother who owns the Kingdom of Mickey' or some weird crap.
Q: Why not goth/emololi? After all, the story is about Lewis Carroll being on drugs and having an attraction to a young girl!!
A: First of all, AiW is based on a boat trip, with absurdist humor and Victorian wordplay thrown in. Alice was a family friend who he was friends with. Would you like it if I said you and your father's coworker were in a affair?
I thought not.
Also, we do not wish to spoil the integrity of the book with such foolish fads.

Marche, though he dearly missed his friends, still preferred his work.
Endless tea-drinking... Endless eating of bread-and-butter...
'Every man had lunch break, but every man had to return to work'.
That's what his philosophy was, now.
These were hazardous times to his the White Queen, and, sadly, those two rogues fighting over her hand did not pass his screening. Poor little Majesty herself thought they were after her cake.
It was splendid cake, but...
He snapped out of his stupor by the White Queen pointing a knitting needle at him. He was currently in her castle, and she was lying on a pure white chase, covered with a white blanket, in a white room and... Marche's head was starting to hurt.
"Haigha..."
"Yes, Your Majesty?"
She blinked.
"I'm very tired. Since your carrying bag is full of straw... could you... could you tuck me in and turn out my lights?"
Marche blushed slightly.
"Your Majesty, it's noon."
"But I'm so very tired..."
Marche undid her brooch pin, and placed it alongside her crown on a white table. He tucked her in as he did to his younger siblings, but with less roughness [and he didn't have to pin the limbs down].
The blanket was made of soft, ultra plush terrycloth, and his hands ached with want after touching the soft fabric.
So... lush...
He snapped out of his second stupor to hear the White Queen's sniffles, and then, snuffing out the candles, he left to go back home to his never-ending tea party, until she was to wake again.

"Help me...."
A young voice called out from the darkness. A young woman, wearing a dark blue dress with a white apron over could be seen, her brown hair hung low. Her arms were held up, she had a pair of cuffs over them. She was dangling in this darkness
A cynical laugh came out, an axe held by an invisible force raised above her head.
The woman's head looked up. Flesh dripped off her face.
WAKE UP WHITE!
***
The man awoke, his head shot up. His torso rose next. Light filled the mans eyes and a small grunt came out, followed by several deep breaths came out.
His dilated blue eyes looked back and forth, a dying coals in the fireplace in front of him, a flight of stairs going up to the left of the fireplace. The right wall was nearly an entire window itself, light shooting into it. A pure white sofa was in front of the fireplace, several photos were above the mantle of it. The walls were tinted beige, the left side of the room had a hutch on the wall, a stove, and a many cabinets lined the left part of the room.
A pulse rang out in his mind, his blood soaked hands left his chest and held onto the sides of his head. Bile began to climb up his throat. The torrent of vomit fell onto the already blood covered rug. He yelped out in pain. He looked down to his chest, the coal black tail coat was splattered with gore, some even reached his pants. He reached for the sofa he was next to, placing two hands onto it, pushing himself up.
His legs were much like rag doll's, he stood for a brief second before falling, leaving behind faint bloodstains on the couch. Gravity took him to the ground, and he landed on his chest. In response, he gave out another cry, this time, he had more of a reason to. From underneath him, he noticed a small gold chain going from underneath him, and returning. A quivering hand pulled the chain out, revealing a golden pocket watch. Pressing the button to open the cover, he looked upon the watch as it read, 8 hours, 27 minutes, and 54, no 55 seconds.
Who the hell was he?
Where is he?
Why was he in such pain?
He could not answer these questions. What was important at the moment was surviving. He began to pull at the rug, and the hardwood floor that surrounded it, something told him he need to get up those stairs.

Back at home, Marche, bored, decided to try and go to sleep.
However, his body, locked in the tea-time stasis, wouldn't let him.
Why, of all the...!
He put this into retrospect and realized that he had not slept in the past 3 years. He stood up, hobbling, and then left his garden and his friends to return to the White Castle.
Once there, he quietly sat inside of the Queen's bedroom, and, sitting down by her bed, he went to sleep.
Uhnnnn...
Though the rational 'Fall' part of his mind told him that this could risk unemployment, as he was sleeping in a Queen's chambers, the irrational and impulsive 'Spring' part insisted that he get some sleep.
He dreamed that the Queen was in danger, and that a series of horrible tortures came upon him. When he woke, the Queen was standing over him, holding his shoulders.
"You were screaming."
Marche looked away in embarrassment, and then stood.
"I-I'm sorry, your Majesty. I had a horrible dream..."
He then winced.
"A-And I'm sleeping here since I haven't slept in three years! Tea-party stasis, you know."
The White Queen yanked him up by his arm, and took off his shoes.
She lifted him up, displaying odd strength, and placed him on her bed.
"Lie down, Marche. I wish to knit, anyways."
She began to walk away as she picked up her current project [a small hat] and then turned back around.
"If you wish, I'll make you some of my world-famous plum cake, and make you some bread-and-jam."
"No thank you, your Majesty, though you're very kind."
He fell asleep, now immensely comforted by the White Queen's soft-as-a-rabbit's-fluff bed, blanket and pillow.

The man peered though the small pair of golden glasses that sat crookedly on his face up at the flight of stairs. Looking towards the wooden hand railing, both hands jumped towards it. His hands took the railing with a weak hold. He pulled up, going to the first white carpeted stair with his knees. He advanced to the next stair. His arms pulled up and he proceeded up the stairs.
After the railing ended, he ripped at the carpet to get up the last steps. Leaving a small blood streak one the stairs. He grabbed at the carpeted floor to keep advancing. Both eyes darted across the room, seeing the wooden walls of the hallway, a closed door on the right, a door in front of him, and a left turn in the hallway. Another urge told him to go to the left. He painfully gripped the carpet and turned. Continuing to crawl, he turned left again, seeing an open door.
With in the room, was a bath on the left wall, hutch and small window on the right, on the back wall of the flowery wallpapered room was a sink and toilet. Up above the sink was a mirror with an odd handle. His hands leaped at the threshold, holding on and pulling himself in.
Once again, carpet turned into hard wood, except for rug in the middle of the small bathroom. He crawled on the ground. He came to the toilet, reaching for the sink next to the toilet he pulled himself up. He sat down on the toilet. His arm shaking, he reached for the handle on the mirror, opening it, there was a medical kit inside. Pulling it out, he placed it on the sink. He pulled on his tailcoat, the buttons shooting across the room, he did the same for his vest and formal shirt. Seeing the grisly wound, he dug in the medical kit. Taking out a tweezers, he inserted them into the wound. He grunted, gritting his teeth as the tweezers took something extremely hard. He quickly he tugged the tweezers out, seeing they held a lead piece. A load came off of him. Taking out cleaning alcohol, cloth bandages, he dumped some of the alcohol into the wound and began to wrap the wound.

Marche got up out of bed later, and when he saw the White Queen, he bowed.
"I thank you, Your Majesty. If there's anything I need to do for you..."
The White Queen grinned.
"Don't be silly. We're friends, right?"
Marche smiled to himself secretly.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Oh, Gwendolyn...
Marche saw the empty throne beside the Queen's.
"Have you found a new King yet?"
The White Queen looked to the side in dismay.
"Poppycock! I'm perfectly fine on my own!"
"As you say so, Your Majesty..."
Marche looked outside.
"Wow. The Lion and the Unicorn must've sent you a lot of chocolate..."
"But I'm allergic to cacao!"
Marche, knowing this, pulled out a white chocolate bar. He had special ordered it, and although it came out of his paycheck, he was happy, as long as the Queen was.
"Well, for you, Your Majesty..."
The White Queen smiled happily, like a small child on Christmas day, and took the bar politely.
"Thank you, Haigha."

The man took in several deep breaths, each bringing a slight calming wave over him. His hands still twitched, but, slowly, they came to his shoes. Undoing the knots in his shoes, he took them off, followed by his sweat soaked socks. His eyes stared at his feet. "....Move your toe..."
Nothing happened.
"Move your toe."
Nothing again.
"Move your toe."
The big toe on his right foot quickly went down before coming back up.
It was a start.

Marche was given a letter from Gwendolyn Her White Majesty to the Rabbit, as she wondered if he should wish to purchase wool from her. Marche wondered how wool could possibly be relevant to 'Mr. White', as she called him, but decided not to question it.
He walked up to the house, noticing that the gate had been forced open, and immediately walked up to the house, knocking raptly on the door.
I hope nothing happened...

The man stared back at the pocket watch. The inside cover seemed to have been engraved with Sole property of White Rabbit
Was he this person?
Suddenly, a rush of information filled his head....
White Rabbit, age 28 years, 8 months, 19 days, 23 hours, 54 minutes and 02 seconds Herald of Queen and King of Hearts.
His blood splattered gloves went to hold onto his head once again. Then, his rabbit ears perked, standing in excitement. Someone had rapped on the door. His eyes opened. He quickly stood, but his legs were still slightly limp. He limped out of the bathroom, turning, his hands grabbed for the railing. Guiding him down. He saw the door, limping towards it, he saw something on the ground on the blood and bile covered rug. He tried to scoop it up, finding that it was a gun.
Mirror Breaker Revolver, double action, takes ..45 Colt, clean firing...
He held onto it with his right hand. He limped into the porch, and saw the front door. His left hand seized the brass handle, twisting it, he swung the door open. His right hand aimed the gun at the man at the door. His thumb pulled back the hammer.
"....Who the hell are you?" White questioned.
