Lilac in Alice's land, chapter 3, Lilac falls

Chapter 2 : Lilac follows the rabbit

Lilas was falling very rapidly head first.

She just had the time to think "I am the size of a mouse and I will soon be broken in microscopic bits"

Tac, her fall had stopped suddenly..

Vzzzzzzzzzzz. She was now falling backwards and was going up quicly.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Tac, Vzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…. hhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Tac, Vzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz… Again and again. Each time she was going less high.

In the end, she quite stopped moving.

She sighed profoundly and realized she was alive and whole but she was hanging by the feet one meter high. Her dress was wrapped around her legs knotted with a big pink ribbon !

Her mind was not on the decoration. Otherwise, she could have noticed that the wall were adorned with graffitis. All of them said the same thing :

Lilac in Alice's land

Chapter 1 : Lilac meets the rabbit

Lilac was reading in the garden. Well, to be more precise, she was pretending to please her parents.

They had told her that she had to be able to read at six.

She was six since yesterday and could not read yet. Well, could not read a book like this one.

She had yet explained to her grandmother that she preferred stickers and toys. Her grandmother had said she got the point and gave her stickers, a game and ... a book.

That book, full of words and letters.

She began to yawn from boredom. Her vision got blurred and the letters began to dance.

The paper started making waves and the white rabbit walked out of the book.

Lilac knew him already. She had met him two years before in december during one of the journeys she had made with her magic bed.

She saw him darting to the back of the garden mumbling :

- Oh dear ! Oh dear ! I shall be to late !

And he disappeared behind the bamboo trees.
