(Thank you very much! ^-^)

Ana blinked to suddenly find herself surrounded by the tallest grass she'd always dreamed of. The heat of the shining sun felt warm on her pale skin, and she relaxed on the cushioned mushroom. Mushroom... That didn't sound right. Her eyes shot open and she jolted up; falling head over heels, her skirts flying, and off the giant mushroom. "Ow..." she groaned, rubbing the back of her head. As she did so, she touched heavenly soft hair and ran her fingers through it. The dark, luminescent gold hurdled and captured the sunlight in its silken, elegantly curved stands. Ana gawked at her now flawless hair. What was once a frizzy hindrance to her, was now the gift of a goddess.
She stood up, but found her legs give in as soon as pressure was added. Thankfully, her second attempt ran successfully. Grasping the smooth mushroom and hoisting herself up, she looked down to see frills. Her hair hung to her knees in arcs. (She's wearing the second link of the dresses; the more common one) "Huh. Will you look at that? If I'm not as crazy as a loon, I'd say I'm Alice!" She twirled and giggled. In her head, she could see sparkles fly off her very being. Ana, or "Alice", was certainly rejoicing in a fairy tale if her own.
Alice skipped down the trodden grass, which had been paved out by the wheels of a carriage, and sang giddily.

"Cats and Rabbits
Would reside in fancy little houses.
They'd wear shoes and gloves and hats and trousers!
Within that world of my own.
I could listen to a babbling brook
And hear a song that I could understand.
I keep wishing, It would be that way
Because my world would be a Won-der-land!"
~ Alice in Woderland, Disney

She was soon on a quest to find cakes with an ornately written "Eat me".

I hear the voice belonging to a girl once again but closer. My feet, quietly walk along the forest-road but stop as a girl, older than me with some not-so-fairy-tale clothes appears on it. Hi... Who are you? I asked with a small voice. My voice seemed to have changed with the rest of my body. I sounded like a child, looked like a child, but I really hope I won't start acting like a child. That would be the doom for me. I realize the girl is silently judging how I look. I never thought about my hair being the same as before until now.

I pricked my ears, hearing the murmur of voices upwind. I followed the sound, paws skimming over the ground silently. Another plus to being a wolf. Silently, I slipped between the trees. The voices grew louder as I got closer, and I could make out individual voices. One of the voices sounded like the ones I was used to hearing: the voice of a teenage girl. The other was more high-pitched, like that of a young girl. I inched closer to confirm my suspicions and was not disappointed. A teenage girl, somewhere around my age, stood there. Her attire, a miniskirt and combat boots, were surprising for a fairy tale character and lacked the medieval look my clothes and the little girl's clothes shared. They were probably her own clothes.
The other person was a young girl under ten. She had reddish hair and blue-gray eyes and was wearing a stereotypical medieval dress. She was carrying a basket filled with cookies, and their warm aroma made my stomach grumble. The surprising thing was the startlingly red cloak draped around her shoulders. It resembled the cloak I wore, but mine was dark crimson and had obviously been put to good use many times. Hers was bright red and looked as good as new, the result of careful care in a loving home. It had folds where there should be folds and was straight where it should be straight. The hood balanced perkily over her red hair and the bottom of the cloak swept in a graceful ark around her ankles. Not at all like mine, then.
"Hi, who are you?" A soft, child-like voice grabbed my attention. I flicked my ears back defensively, but then I realized she wasn't talking to me. The other girl started to reply, but I decided that I had enough of lurking in the bushes. Either I step up to them, or I leave. I silently sprang out of the bushes and landed in front of them.

My eyes were starting to droop when I heard some other voices. I looked up to see that the sun was already coming up (Because you are all rping in the day, and I was doing it at night...). The sky here was really beautiful, at least compared to where I lived. Relief flooded over me as I realized that there were other people nearby, so I quickly stood up and ran towards them, assuming they were all friendly, and couldn't possibly be murderers; you know, all that good stuff. I saw them on the side of the road as I came closer, but I also started to gain a few questions. One was wearing normal clothes, or at least the kind I used to see when I was in my normal world. The other was Red Riding Hood, or at least from what I could tell. I slowed down as I cam up to them, accidentally kicking up a cloud of dust. "I thought I was the only one! Wait, are you from my world, or here, or-" I stopped myself when I realized I was rambling. "I'm Evana." I said, not knowing what to expect. But I braced myself to run, just in case they were really from here, and not my world.

More strangers. Alright, then.
"I'm from er... depends on what your world is, but I am from Earth, twenty-first century, er, Solar System. My name is Mel-" I stopped talking quite suddenly as a canine shape entered the clear in a very disruptive and strange way, shooting out of the bushes. Instinctively, I pulled Red away from it, seeing it could be a dangerous forest predator, or have rabies or (this was a fairy tale, land, after all) try to eat the girl and her grandmother...
"issa." I finished, rather to my out surprise in a gasp as I figured that it was, in fact a wolf. "Or Cinderella, though I'd rather you didn't call me that..."
I let my voice trail of. This wasn't the time.
{Sorry, writer's block. }

"Right I'm from Earth too, sorry. Also, I guess I'm Belle now.." I turned to see the wolf they were staring at. SHe was huge, with gold eyes. I slowly started to back up, not sure what to do. If this was the wolf from the three little pigs, or red riding hood, we were most likely all dead. But if she was another person like us.... I froze in terror. I'm not very good in scary situations, okay? "What do we do now?" I whispered quietly, not moving my gaze. If this was just an animal... Then we could easily fight it, right? But it was obvious it wasn't just an animal. "Are you evil, because if so, I reserve every right to back you with a stick." The words seemed to just fall out. What good will a stick do? Was all I could really think though, getting side-tracked easy.

"Okay. Weapons. Right. Yeah." Still staring into the eyes of the wolf, though I knew that was a very stupid thing to do, I reached to my belt (which had a pouch on it), ruffling through it and stating what I found inside. "Paperclip.Old Social Studies notes. Oh! This is good, my brother's boy scout knife. Jelly Beans. Bell. Page 91 of the great adventures of Robinson Crusoe. I doubt that will help. Ouch! Pin. Sticky notes. Bottle of vinegar..."
I turned to red, handing her the vinegar absentmindedly. "Er. If it lunges, try to get this in its eyes. Belle, go for the nose and legs with the stick. I have a knife, and technically if I can stab it in the eye, head or the...um... heart, we have a chance against it. If that fails, try to immobilize it as much as possible with what you have and run. Ummm, the village is about two minutes of a very fast running pace away, er, that way, and there might be some one who can help there. Alright?"
Feeling like some sort of general, I looked at the wolf even more intently.
"Whoa, nelly, quiet now..."

I was just about to say my name when I too noticed the wolf and was swooped away by the girl calling herself Mel-issa for some reason. I wanted to squeak from shock but was far too terrified to even move. I just kept my eyes on a leaf on the ground and didn't let it go until the vinegar was handed to me. My wide eyes, consumed the information of the bottle until they finally managed to sneak a peek at the wolf. It's eyes seemed to dig deep into my soul, like i recognized it.
This is not the one from the three little pigs... This wolf is from my fairytale.
I said with a small and shivery voice, looking up at the not-so-cinderella girl.

(Just very quick, would it be possible for Ana, or Alice, to meet up with Lance? I feel as though they would make excellent traveling companions!)
Anne Marie Rose Lisette (Ana)~~~Alice Liddell~~~Enthusiastic, Excited, Adventurous, and Curious
"Alice" had been walking for quite a while when she noticed a light clinking sound deriving from her skirts pocket. She searched around the folds of her dress till she finally came to an almost invisible parting in the fabric. She reached in, curiosity stinging her and she closed her hand around a small vial, a most elegantly crafted key, and a glass box. They felt cool against her warm fingers. Ana pulled the box and vial out and studied her new found inventory. She grinned as she saw the unmistakably elaborate writing that instructed her to drink and eat. She placed the vial back in its place, popped the lid off the box, and took out its contents. A moist, spongy cake was becoming really appetizing to her tastes at the moment, but she knew the strong effects came from this small pastry. So Alice nibbled at and edge and replaced the cake in the box, and the box in her pocket. She grew to be just right.
She found herself at a dead end of thorn bushes, but could see a soft glow beyond. Ana moved with great agility past the prickling plants and stumbled into a strange forest. And quite strange indeed, for it had the most perplexing signs and strange looking doors, indicating to impossible ways. 'Up here', 'Over Yonder', 'Atop This Sign and Beyond' were some she had spotted. Well! It looks as though this path is a difficult one.
Ana approached a Gothic style door. The knob was a curios little trinket shaped like the head of a dragon, and she turned it. She felt a waft of hair hit her and she stepped through, the door slamming itself closed behind her.

Silver watched in amusement as the trio panicked, but her cold gaze didn't betray this fact. She took a step closer to gauge their reactions, and then proceeded to stare down every member of the group. Their reactions, while amusing, weren't enough and she leaped at Red, purposefully overshooting and just clearing the top of her head. She pivoted as she landed, spinning around to face the group again. There was a tense moment, and then Silver shifted back into a human.
Her body felt alien to her once again, and the adrenalin rush she felt when she was a wolf didn't disappear. Her crimson cloak billowed around her, the hood hiding her eyes. That wouldn't do. She threw her hood back, revealing golden eyes and a wolfish grin.
"Hey, I'm Aurelia, but call me Silver."
