London, England...

Once a peaceful capital city for all ages is now a land without children, as England soon is starting to become as well. With each new child it claims, the range of the P3 Syndrome gets broader and broader and will continue to until all of England, and eventually the world, becomes effected by this comatosing disease.

However, for Alice Crowley and Adam, this isn't really a concern. They were far past their childhood, and in Alice's case, in her college years while Adam just started his junior year of high school. As they go about their normal lives, they see the city has also been unnaturally normal, considering the pandemic of P3 Syndrome. Since it only effects young children, they're probably trying to ignore it, not worried due to either not having children, or having children that are too old to be effected. It's almost amazing how people can care less about this kind of disaster, so long as it doesn't fall on them either. However because of this, the city is aging and anyone not within their age are either older or in the hospital under a comatose.

As they're both about ready to start her classes tomorrow, they head off to bed early for a good night sleep, hoping to have a good year ahead of them.

However, right at the stroke of Midnight, they, and others within the town, would suddenly feel strange. A pulse, that would make them normally jump out of their sleep as if reacting to a jumpscare, would push through their minds, and their dreams would fade away to black. Yet it would feel as real and deep as if it was in fact reality. Then, in front of them, a light shined through the darkness, revealing some kind of giant rectangle, and despite there being no light anywhere else, they would be able to see themselves within this rectangle, clear as day. A full-body mirror, perhaps? The reflection becomes more and more transparent, and beyond it, what should be absolute darkness is in fact what appeared to be some kind of...land, a beautiful green forest, its beauty somewhat ruined by the grey clouds covering the sky, blocking out the assumingly blue skies and sun, but seeping the light of day through it. If they looked behind them, they would find nothing but black, yet the land in the rectangle was still there. This wasn't a mirror, but a window it seems.

Suddenly, without warning, they would be pushed, or rather pulled, into this window by an invisible force, going right through the window, feeling almost a refreshing feeling upon contact, as if passing a wall of calm water, before they all land on the meadows before them. If they looked around, they would see that they indeed landed in the strange land, appearing to be a beautiful summer woods by the looks of the number of incredibly massive green-leaved trees around them and the pleasently soft though oddly tall and large grass on the oddly felt texture of the dirt on the ground. Alice and Adam, in particular, needed a little bit of time to catch their breaths and realized what just happened, when the sound of moving plantlife and footsteps was heard.

If they look, they would see a small figure walking up to them, covered in the tall grass, but revealing itself as it got to them. The figure appeared to be a little white rabbit with red eyes and what appears to be a red coat of some kind. Besides the coat, and the fact it was on its feet almost as if standing up like a normal human, it looked like your ordinary bunny rabbit, size and all. It simply looked at the humans, taking a closer look at them before pulling back and sighed.

"Hmm...Well, This is... surprising, that we got so many at once but... disappointing to say the least. Why, they look no different from any other humans." It said. Unless there was also an incredibly good ventriloquist near by, there was no doubt that this Rabbit just talked, it's mouth moved to talk as he shakes his head. Alice jumped when she looked up to see it. Adam simply looking at it in awe, while looking around. So many questions was going through his head that he couldn't think of which one to ask first. Alice on the other hand... simply looked at the Rabbit in awe, poking it on the head to see if it's real, and sure enough, she could feel the soft fur and hard skull beneath it.

"...Please stop that." He simply said in an irritated tone.

"...Who...What are you, and where are we?" She asked.

"I am simply a White Rabbit, I have no other name, nor a need for one, ...and this is a place known as Wonderland." The rabbit simply said.

Today went by as any other day. Axel was stuck to the TV the whole day, playing one of his favourite games, for, what? The fiftieth time? He had already lost count of it. He knew that the next day he'd have to wake up early to go to school, but he didn't really care, he would pull an all-nighter and finish it again, since he loved the game. However, his mother had other plans for him. Axel heard his mother shouting on the other side of the door leading to his dark room, the only light in it was that of his TV.

"Axel, you have school tomorrow! Leave that thing alone already, for god's sake!" His mom said to him, in an angry tone.

"Yeah, just lemme finish this level and I'll head to bed immediately." He grinned at the thought of it. Oh, how silly was his mom, to believe that an RPG had such things as 'levels', other than those of the characters.

Then again, she had been dealing with Axel for a long time now. "You won't fool me, Axel. You have 10 more minutes or I'll turn down the electricity."

Funny thing, she wasn't joking. She'd seriously leave all the house without electricity if Axel didn't comply. He clicked his tongue and hurried into the menu to save his game. His fingers moved swiftly through the controller. "Okay, gotcha. I am already saving my game. I'll turn the console off after it finishes saving." He announces and his mother replies with a simple 'yes' and then Axel hears her walk away. He lets out a sigh as the game finishes the saving progress and reluctantly turns it off. "Ugh, it is a drag to wake up early in the morning." He lumps his body towards his bed, well, at least he'd get to sleep a good amount of time and not wake up tired for his first day of college. He lies on his bed, still dressed and wearing his favourite hoodie, thinking he'll be able to wake up and take a quick shower the next morning. Axel closes his eyes and prepares himself to go to that wonderland called the dream world.

He never thought he'd end up in the actual Wonderland, though. He felt, well, there wasn't really a way to describe it, he just knew he felt strange and then, as if looking through the glass of a vitrine in some shop, he saw a landscape. Truly something wonderful and pleasant to the eye, he thought. His dreams had never been this vivid before, so he felt quite privileged to be experiencing such a thing. Though, the believe that it was all a dream was disturbed by the fact that he was pulled into the glass-like visage and then fell down.

Even if it didn't feel at all unpleasant, something was definitely odd. As he fell down, everything looked as if he was in the actual Wonderland of the story. When he landed, he tried to get acquainted with his surroundings, moving his head in all directions to make a little map inside his head, though to really accomplish something like that he'd have to explore his surroundings. There were others with him, but he didn't paid them much heed. Rather, Axel was more intrigued by the walking rabbit. The probability of all of this being a dream was decreasing exponentially with time. So, he stood up and walked to where the rabbit was, other girl did the same but flinched back as soon as it talked. Well, even through his realism, it was obvious this wasn't normal at all, dream or not, he should at least try and get some info out of the rabbit.

He felt oddly at ease with the fluffy talking rabbit, so he didn't act shy around it. Maybe it was because it seemed more as something fictional than something real. Axel poked the rabbit's head, as if to confirm it was real. "So, White Rabbit, today ya aren't late for anything? In the books you seemed a lot more lively than this." He said in a monotone voice. "And, I'm figuring we're here to do something. What is it? Beat the Red Queen? Slay the Bander-whateveryacallit?" He really didn't seem interesting, but hey, it seemed better than sit and do nothing.

Tokyo,Japan

Kouichi was in the airport with his family just to say goodbye to him.

"Awwwwww.... My baby is not a child anymore" Kouichi's mother weeped

"Good luck there son!" Kouichi's father encouraged him

"Don't forget us o-onii-chan!" Kouichi's little sister cried

"Haha... Don't worry about me okasan,otosan,and my little sister" Kouichi comforted them so they cannot worry about him while he is in London with his uncle.

He smiled and waved at them before he enters the airport.

September 4th, 2010
London,England

Kouichi was riding a car with his uncle to escort him in his new home.Kouichi is peeking at the window while they are on their way.He was very confused why he isn't seeing any children.He then became curious and he asked his uncle.He knows how to speak English a lot so it won't be a problem.

"Uhh... Uncle why am I not seeing any children?" Kouichi asked

"Oh... It's because it is already 11:00 PM and they are already asleep" his uncle answered but it was a lie since he thought that letting him know about the P3 Syndrome might make him panic although he is a teenage boy.

"Oh really? In my country, kids can still be seen in the streets hanging out with their friends in the time" Kouichi added

"Well... This is not Japan anymore" his uncle smiled.

After all the conversation, Kouichi arrived at his new home.Kouichi then enters the house and goes to his room then he unpacked his stuff.While he is in the middle of unpacking his stuff, Kouichi's uncle named Fred knocked at the door.

"Kouichi?" Fred called his name

"Yes?" Kouichi responded while still continuing to unpack his stuff.

"I already enrolled you to a school and you will start by tomorrow so after you're done unpacking your things.Go to sleep" Fred said

"Ok!" Kouichi replied and continued to unpack his stuff.

Just like what his uncle said.He immediately goes to sleep right after he is done unpacking his stuff.Before he can sleep, he looks at the clock and it was already 11:59 PM.

"It is almost midnight"Kouichi said to himself and slept.

As the midnight strikes,Kouichi's dream that was about his family waving at him turned into black.Like he was in an endless void,it was darkness everywhere except for the light in front of him.He approached the light and as he reached it, it is a window.Kouichi was confused what was happening and he was pushed all of a sudden.

Now, he realized that he was not alone.There are other people pushed to the window and entered this strange world.A rabbit appeared and spoke.

"Haha... what is this some kind of entertainment number?" Kouichi laughed.Well he laughed because he never take any situations seriously and he does not know that he is in danger.

He then approached the rabbit and hugged him.

"You're so cute!" Kouichi said while he is hugging the rabbit.

Following the White Rabbit receiving a poking from Alice and a hug from Kouichi, both of it's large ears got pulled upwards by another of the gathered 'humans'. "Oooh, they feel so real!" the girl spoke slowly in fascination as she instead began stroking his head alongside the Japanese kid as he hugged the.. talking.. rabbit.. Oh yes, it spoke - quite formally at that. This felt too weird to be real, but everyone else in Hayleigh's dream sure looked real enough!

"I must be losing it... Maybe I should start directing more time to sleeping after all." Arthur's dull tone sounded as he strolled towards the White Rabbit. The bored-looking young man began rubbing his eyes, opening them again only to frown. He was supposed to be sitting at his desk in front of a laptop, not in some random forest clearing... His sister was here, too. Perhaps it wasn't some extra-wild dream.

"You, rabbit. Explanations - now," he said.

Hayleigh meanwhile was absorbed in petting their well-dressed talking animal.

September 4th
London, England

Liz sat at a table playing chess with her foster father. Well, it wasn't really Liz playing the game, it was Robin.
" Checkmate," Robin called out in glee.
" Robin, we started this match five miutes ago. Oh, and what's the score?" He responded.
" Overall score or tonight's score?" Robin asked. She always kept track of win lose records.
"Overall," father told her.
" In that case, 264 Wins and 0 loses for me, and 0 wins and 264 Loses for you," she responded grinning from ear to ear.
" In that case, go to bed it's 11:30," he told her.
Robin switched with Liz. Liz went to her room and fell asleep instantly. A force pulled her into Wonderland. Liz stood up and looked around. There were people around her and a... talking bunny. Okay, this was certainly wierd. Liz walked over to the bunny. He looked real. And the people who were around her looked real.
" Um, Mister White Rabbit, where are we, and why are we here?" Liz asked shyly.

Even though he was supposed to be off work an hour ago, Connor was busy as always, today he got stuck with the phone calls, every now and then the police would be receiving calls from panicking parents, about how they suspect that their child was going to be the next victim of p3 syndrome and how they needed police protection, because the police were the obvious go to choice when something seems abnormal, or when you just need someone to blame, in most cases though, it was the latter.

. "Seriously, if you think it is going to be a problem, contact the hospital lady, I can't do anything about it." Getting rather annoyed with a frantic mother, Conner sat at desk, hand bracing his head up, he had been on the phone for hours, this was probably his least favorite duty of his job, and this lady in particular was just not listening to reason at all.

"But you need to do something, that's why we pay you so much! What good are you for if not protecting the citizens of England? You know this is why no one respects you guys anymore, and to think that I am talking to a child! why don't you get the chief on, he will listen to me, and I am sure with his vast experience and knowledge he has gained over time, he would be able to think of a way to protect my child, so why isn't he answering my questions?" The tone of the woman's voice giving away that she was past reason.

Connor's eye twitched, but his tone remained the same, "Woman, I have given you more than answers to the questions you have, if our chief had an answer don't you think he would have given it by now? And lastly, if you are so worried about your child, how about you spend time with him, and if you think we are wasting the british taxes, then you can stop paying them and leave the country, that also could be a way to get away from our medical plan problems, and away from areas that have children with p3, can't afford it? well you should have gotten a job instead of sitting around on benefits. Have a nice day." Hanging up the phone, he let out a deep breathe, relief, people like that annoyed Connor to no end, why complain if you are just going to sit around and never try to change anything yourself? He stood up and put on his coat, he was supposed to be off already, but due to someone calling in sick last minute, he had to fill in. "Chief, it's late," pointing to another officer at the coffee machine, "My replacement came in twenty minutes ago, and I'm tired of people who are willing to call us, but not do anything more. I'm off for the night, See you tomorrow." He looked at the chief who seemed swamped in work, he simply nodded and waved.

Upon his arrival at his flat, he tossed off his coat and got himself ready for bed, he was going to watch something on his laptop, but he was just to exhausted after dealing with so many fools in one day. Normally he would be out on patrol, and at least then people would act a bit different to him, they seem to think higher of themselves when hiding behind the phone. He let out a sigh as he flopped down on his mattress. His place was a small bachelor suit, but it would do till he got a better pay at work. The pay he deserved.

Before he knew it, he had drifted off into a dream, this one seemed a bit off though, at first, like most dreams, he couldn't put his finger on it, however, after the strange mirror incident, and now being with a group of others and witnessing a talking white rabbit and people poking at it and forcing questions, he concluded this wasn't his dream. there was a lack of police force, and it seemed a bit too unorganized to have been generated by his mind.

"Clearly none of you have ever done interrogation before, you ask a question, then wait for an answer, you don't bombard the subject." He addressed the others bluntly, then stood in front of the white rabbit, inspecting it, looking it up and down examining it with one of his arms grabbing his elbow, and the other rubbing his smooth chin.. He had many questions, but he knew that if they were here, where ever here is, for a reason, they would be answered shortly.

A faint groan could be heard as Cronic picked himself up off the ground.

"What in the nine hells is going on...?" Cronic said, rubbing the back of his neck as he got to his feet, looking around, making a note of the people present, but more importantly, the talking white rabbit.

",,,Did someone spike my drink...? This ain't my hotel room." Cronic said to himself, rubbing his right eye sleepily as he kept his distance from both the rabbit and the others, his common sense telling him to stay away from them.

"Who knows, maybe I'll wake up in a few minutes, and this is just one messed up dream." Cronic thought to himself, as he sat down on the grass, not caring about what the others were doing, staring off into the distance.

Was this a dream?
She hazily worked trough her memories of the day. Studies at the UNI, then sports afterwards and a hanging with her friends at that bar in the evening before heading to bed.
Dad was still working to. And now she was here. in what could be the weirdest dream she coulld even imagine.

No it is to vivid this had to be something else.
She looked at the others around the talking rabbit. It had shocked her at first. But then some of the younger ones had walked up to it. Just like that. Interacting with this strange thing. Maybe it was a dream after all. She didn't know anyone that stupid.

But at least there where some hope a few seemed to have brains. Huh wait a moment what had that rabbit just said.
"wait other humans?" She said out loud. the words for some reason making her nervous.

For the - How many times now? She couldn't remember. It had been too many times. Too many times. - Evette Rossen lay awake in her bed, looking up at the dark ceiling. She was tired, but that was okay since she was always tired recently. She could sleep, but if she did... Evette let her eyes droop shut.

BANG

Her eyes snapped open, pulse quickening. She could sleep, but if she did the memory would pounce. She tried to keep it back, to just not think about it, but it was there when she closed her eyes. Just like that night, when she'd opened her eyes to a black ceiling and the sound of shots already fading into silence. Then breaking glass as he fell, hitting the table and sending a vase off the edge. She tried to fight it, but she remembered it all.

Evette looked at the clock beside her bed. It read just past ten. She'd gone to bed at eight. She needed to sleep. Her body couldn't go on any longer without sleep, so why did it feel so awake? She got up and walked to the bathroom. Filling a cup with water and tossing a handful of relaxant pills in her mouth, Evette downed the glass. Her body needed sleep.

At some point after that she must have fallen asleep, or blacked out, because she found herself dreaming. For once her head wasn't filled with the sound of gunshots. She didn't even think to get up and look at the strange square of green and blue, she just lay on her back and closed her eyes. It felt too good to move. Apparently she wasn't supposed to go back to sleep, as the invisible floor she rested on seemed to tilt to make her fall into the strange hole.

The new dreamplace was brighter than the black room, but the ground was softer. Evette just lay her arm over her eyes and rested. Whatever this dream was of, at least if had the decency to let her sleep. She heard loud noises, like children playing, or fighting, there really wasn't much difference between the two sounds. Evette couldn't have cared less about her surroundings. This was her dream, and she would do what she wanted in it. Right now, she wanted to sleep.

For Adrian it had been a fairly ordinary day. He'd met up with a few friend, or rather some minions. Subordinates really. No true equals as far as he was concerned with his royal subjects. Together the small group played a few sports. Adrian's team did fairly well. Out of 10 games they won 7. He felt proud about this considering he did a fair amount of the work. Still those around him weren't the pictures of perfection, so to speak. He had no real problems though. The day went on without a hitch. They got some food. He watched as his "friends" failed at trying to flirt with a few girls. He made no attempts. He felt no need to. Adrian wasn't dissatisfied with his life in the slightest.

As he separated from his friends the young man made his way home where he was sure his mom would have dinner ready. He smiled all the while thinking today had been a good day. Now he could eat, relax and rest. That what he did too. he greet his parents happily, ate the dinner his mother had made and then proceeded to his room where he would use his time wisely and do something productive to society... NOT! He turn on his TV and put on a game. He smiled as he began to play until about 11:30. "Finally done with this one." He said calmly. It wasn't like he'd just started the game after all. He got up and went to the bathroom with a towel and some clothes to sleep in. When he finished it was about 11:45. He went back to his room, set the alarm and laid down to sleep.

It didn't take long for a pretty awesome dream to begin, but it was cut short, much to Adrian's dismay. He found himself standing in a black area with what looked like a mirror. Or... A window? It made a fairly quick transition which he didn't quite understand. "What the hell?" He asked before he was pulled through. "Oh fuck..." Everything was happening so fast. The arrival of the white rabbit. The questioning of others. "Geez... You better talk quick rabbit. I'm not partial to having my dreams interrupted." He said in a rather annoyed tone acting as if, not only his dreams, but his being as a whole was more important than everyone else's.

Once again, like every other night, Nat was sat on his old, wooden chair behind the register of his book store, reading a different book each day, waiting for a customer to walk in... but like every other night, no one. He glanced at the old grandfather clock that stood behind him to check the time; 10:30, thirty minutes already past closing time. He slipped a black bookmark into his book, stood up, and walked towards the entrance of the store. As he stood before the door, he looked out the glass window to see if there is anyone outside, but all he saw was the dimly lit, empty street. He locked the door and drew the curtains, then returned to his wooden chair and continued to read his book.

As the hour passed, Nat grew tired. Within a few minutes of completing his book, he drifted to a deep sleep. At first, his dream felt ordinary... until the stroke of midnight, when a pulse made him feel as if he woke up. However, rather than seeing the dusty old shelves and piles of books, he found himself in a dark room among several other people, with a grand rectangular window. Out the window was a lush and beautiful landscape, too beautiful, looked too much like a scene described in a fantasy book he once read when he was a child. Am I still dreaming, he wondered. The land in front of him looked far too beautiful to be seen in reality, yet he had a strange feeling that it was too real to be a dream.

Nat continued wondering until his thoughts are disrupted by being pulled into the window and falling in the land he was just admiring. After the fall, anything else going to happen, he thought... And sure enough, a talking, red-eyed white rabbit that wore a red coat and stood upright entered Nat's view. After the rabbit spoke, many questions ran through his head, the most dominant questions being, what did the rabbit mean by 'they look no different from other humans'? He really wanted to ask this question, but the answer he wants will most likely be related to why he's there, so he just waited for the rabbit to answer.

Mina allowed herself to drop onto her worn out cottage, a yawn escaping her. She was exhausted after her day of work, her eyes immediately closing when she managed to get part of the covers over her battered body.
If it was up to her Mina wouldn't be working this hard, she would rather go to school, but her situation didn't allow that. Mina's family didn't have the money to pay her school, so she was forced to stop going. Her younger sister was still going to school, so Mina worked to save up for her college and made sure her sister had all she needed.
It didn't help that their mother was an alcoholic and didn't have a job either. She got into fights with her almost every every day and they never ended pleasantly.

After closing her eyes she immediately fell into a dreamless sleep, her own safe haven of darkness. Only when she slept was she at peace.
Unlike any other day of sleep though, her dreamless sleep was different. She felt herself floating in the darkness, and then a shape appeared out of nowhere.
What was that.. a square? No, it was too uneven for that, more rectangular. She glanced at the shape and found out it was a mirror, her reflection staring back at her.
She couldn't see her own body, but her reflection was there, clear as day.
Her hand touched the glass, even though she couldn't see it, and suddenly she was dragged into the mirror as if it was water she could simply flow through.

She landed on a soft meadow, grass around her, a soft breeze brushing over her skin. The ground was warm, the dew of the grass dripping down her skin, it was more comfortable than her bed, but where was she?
She heard talking.., other people? Was it a dream?
She didn't know the people in that stood near her, speaking to something she couldn't see through the high grass, so it was unlikely she was dreaming. She lay there for a few moments longer, before sitting up and looking around.

Alice and Adam both looked at everyone, realizing that, sure enough, they weren't the only ones here. Adam particularly notices three (Chase, Evette, Tyggvi) that are still asleep, or at least seems to be asleep. ...Wait, they're asleep? But it's the dream world, how is it possible to dream in a dream? He then looked at the Rabbit again, who seemed awfully...agitated not only from the asian hugging him but a girl petting him, as the rabbit tries to release himself from Koichi's grip, his legs twitching at fast speed. To Koichi and Hayleigh, the rabbit's soft fur, its small physical frame, it all felt real like and rabbit would.

"Get, OFF!" He yelled out as he body, color, and texture began to change. His entire small body turned from a small white rabbit to a blob of some kind of black, inky goop that melted away from Koichi's hands and moved, on its own, away from the others before reforming itself into rabbit shape and regaining its colors and textures again, much to Alice's shock and Adam's surprise.

"...These are the ones with Potential? They're more childish then the children." He thought as he sighed, dusting off his red coat as he looked at the group.

"...What...What are you?" Alice asked.

"Listen closely, we don't have a lot of time, so I can't explain everything right now. I am what you may call a Shadow. Through the Looking Glass, I have summoned you all here, to Wonderland. This place is a plane only accessed by the ethereal realm, or the planes of dreams if you will. In other words, you are still asleep in your world. However, this is still a dangerous place. Reality and its boundaries are irrelevant in this world, and while these woods somewhat safe, they are not going to be for very long." The White Rabbit said.

"Woods? ...You mean, these aren't grasslands?" Alice asked. Adam looked up to the blue sky, and noticed something.

"Those are some trees..." Adam said. Alice looked at him and up towards the sky, and sure enough, the sky was being covered with the branches and leaves of giant, colossal even, trees, about 50 times bigger then normal trees.

"...What in the world!? Those trees are huge." Alice said.

"No, we're all just small." The Rabbit corrected. Adam looked at everyone else and noticed their....'variety', for lack of a better word. He knew at least one of them as a Police officer he's seen patrolling the city of London at nights. But he can't seem to find a good reason for why to choose them instead, literally, anyone else.

"Ignoring our size for a second, As everybody else pretty much asked, why are we here?" Adam asked.

"I'll explain later, right now we have to get to the Bastion. Like I said, it won't be safe here for very long. They should already know you're here by now." The Rabbit said.

"What do you mean 'They'?" Alice asked. But the White Rabbit looked at the four still unconscious, seemingly ignoring Alice's question.

"I need three of the strongest of you to pick these people up, I would like to avoid anyone having a guilty conscience of leaving them for dead." The Rabbit said to them.

Cronic listened to the Rabbit speak, and not understanding a word of it. Instead he got to his feet and turned to look at those who were unconscious and/or asleep still.

"Ok. This technically is and isn't a dream." Cronic thought to himself, as he walked over to one of them, and hauled one over his shoulder. Due to his upbringing, he usually tries to remain in good shape. Could mean the difference between life and death as far as he's concerned. So carrying an unconscious individual over his shoulder isn't much of a problem for him.

"Well, better tag along. I don't feel like going home in a box. That and I wan't more information on what's going on around here."

Kouichi is still thinking that this is a dream.He really doesn't care what happens around here because he thought it's a dream.The rabbit asked them to lift the 4 unconscious guys.

"I'll do it!" Kouichi volunteered

"Since this is a dream.... I'll use my Super Strength!" Kouichi thought.Yeah, being not serious is like being a kid though so then he did it.

"Urghhh!!!!" Kouichi groaned while he tries to lift the 4 unconscious guys simultaneously and dropped them all of a sudden.

"*pant**pant* Wait... this is not a dream?" Kouichi asked himself and realized how to stupid he was(lols)

"Where are we? White Rabbit Thingy" Kouichi asked

As people started gathering around the rabbit, Axel recoiled. This was something he didn't like, people crowding over something when he was around. He just can't stand crowds. His confident words from before to the rabbit seem to have come from someone else now that he was cowardly taking some steps back. Axel got far enough as to not feel presured by the crowd that was in there, but he intended to stay within hearing range, so he could make something about this situation. He had already formulated one theory about all this, that it wasn't a dream, after all, if it were a dream, Axel would be able to control the people that came in with him, but the all seem to be self-conscious and uncaring, seeing the other 3 or 4 sleeping guys. Well, if this indeed was some kind of replica from the "Alice in Wonderland" world, then there should be some kind of problem, right? Like, maybe some kind of tea ran out and they needed humans to get some more, or something stupid like that.

Axel was fidgeting restlessly in one place. He thought that this kind of setting was rather cliched, being sent to another world and then try to free it from the grasp of some big baddie, all of it while running along with your partners who you just kinda met when you arrived. More than a handful of games had the same theme. 'If you were gonna do that, why not send me with people I already now?! Ah, this is so frustrating!' He knew he had no confidence at all and that he would most likely stay in the sidelines, as a healer or something, or maybe as a buffer and debuffer, though he preferred the front lines when it came to epic fantasy. He puts his hands in his head and starts messing with his own hair. It was even more frustrating the fact that this wasn't a game,it was real life. No Game Overs, no continues, no lives, no fees to pay to revive, nothing... Trying something bold in here would most likely lead to his death. Maybe he was looking too much into it? What if the rabbit just called them here to have some tea! Yeah, Axel decided to go along that line of thought.

Then, what he was trying to get his head off, was brought up in the conversation taking place a few meters from where he was standing. Death. The rabbit was cautious enough not to leave anyone behind, because they would most likely end up death and someone actually tried to carry all of them by himself, with no success. The rabbit said something about seeing someone and it not being safe, so Axel deduced that the rabbit would guide them somewhere safe. The threat of danger wasn't too much as to make Axel lose his cool, but facing danger without any means to protect himself was indeed terrifying. As a kid would do, the shy Axel put himself behind the little rabbit and almost crouching completely, he grabbed it from its tiny clothes. "T-then, please just take me there. I really can't stand waiting here for whatever may kill us."

Liz walked next to the boy crouching by the rabbit.
" Calm down, we will be alright. We'll be perfectly safe, I'm sure someone here must know to use a weapon," she told the boy, though she didn't believe half of what she was saying. Liz then walked over to the two sleeping people. It looks like their just asleep they re not wounded at all,Liz thought.

"Okay, that's weird," Hayleigh murmured with worry as the rabbit morphed into black goop or whatever the heck it just did, and when it reformed she hesitated to go closer to the creature again. Why the heck did the White Rabbit call himself a 'Shadow'? Everyone here was in a dream world, but at the same time they were apparently sound asleep in their beds. Or in her brother Arthur's case, likely facedesk'd due to lack of caffeine. It was pretty clear by now that they weren't in charge here. Hayleigh wasn't even sure her mind could conjure something this magnificent or surreal. Dreams weren't easy to remember, but this one was sticking in her mind as clearly as a moment in everyday life. That one Japanese guy thought he could manipulate this place, himself, due to it being nothing but a dream. Super Strength apparently wasn't allowed here...

"One at a time! You're not a super hero... Let me help." Hayleigh said as she strolled over to Kouichi's side, leaning down and grabbing underneath one of the unconscious' arms, "Can you take their legs? I don't really want to drag the poor sod all the way to wherever we're going," she asked Kouichi. It was a no-brainer. These people were in danger according to the White Rabbit. To leave them here wouldn't only be ignorant as hell, but.. quite rude! (It can be anyone that they're gonna pick up really ;o)

Arthur rubbed his head and stepped over to his sister and the Japanese kid, eying the ones who hadn't woken up yet. You'd think that Kouichi would have woken them up by lifting and dropping them all back on the grass like that, but~... "I'll take one. No sense in leaving them here..." he muttered, nodding at a silent Cronic as he too began hauling one of the sleepy heads away. This felt like it was going to be a long night... Not giving much thought to how rough it might feel, Arthur picked up one of the unconscious and threw them over his shoulder. If danger was on its way, there wasn't much time for formality. (Again, whoever Arthur picked up is up to them)

"By all means, lead the way Rabbit. We're no good out in the open, are we?" Arthur shrugged with one shoulder and began to follow after Cronic.

Keeping a calm composure during the strange transformation of the white rabbit into a black goop, and listening to it speak more, it was just as Connor thought, more would be explained on the way. He also knew better than to just stand around when he was informed of danger, "Well, we better get going then," He turned his head to look at those left still 'sleeping' and couldn't help but facepalm after watching some of this merry group try to move them. He would help them, they clearly needed help, in more ways then one.

Walking over to a lady who seemed asleep, Connor bent down to pick her up, but thought it would be best first to see if she could wake up. He was a police officer, not a kidnaper, and he would like to eliminate all misunderstandings before they would happen. "Hey, hey woman, we need to get moving now, so if you can, get up. if not, I'll be carrying you." He gave her a slight push with his hand, hoping to wake her.

Mina looked up as she heard footsteps nearing her location. It seems the other people were still sleeping, she was laying near one.
Upon seeing a male hanging above a girl near her she blinked a bit. 'Not a dream...' she murmured lightly.
She shook her head a bit as if to wake her up some more and sat up. 'I'm awake.... I think...' she murmured to herself, looking over her shoulder to observe the teenager. No features she recognized, so she doubted it was a dream.
She was confused, but figured staying here wouldn't do her much good. The offer of going somewhere else was a promising one. With a light grunt she got onto her feet and stretched a bit, looking around.

By now she had spotted the being they had been speaking to and realized it was a rabbit, making her blink again and rub her eyes confused. 'I'm going insane...' she murmured.
She slowly approached the group of people that had gathered and stood by them, looking at them all a bit baffled about the situation.
