Edit: I have rewritten the beginning, and hopefully, it flows better now compared to before.

DISCLAIMER: DGM is not owned by me. The all-time heart warming and heart wrenching manga that has fans reeling in its plot twists belongs to KATSURA HOSHINO-sensei. (^_^) All hail. All hail. The only thing I own is the OCs and the changes caused by her interference. Please apply this to every chapter in the story. Thank you for understanding.

1st Night

Down The Rabbit Hole

"It would be nice if something makes sense for a change."

-Lewis Caroll, Alice in Wonderland

Forget common sense. That's the only thing I can tell myself because there's only so much that a human brain can take before they completely lose what's left of their sanity. And for many reasons that is too much of a pain for me to list out, I'm already in the process of losing it.

"Yu~ I want to sit with you!"

"Fuck off!"

"Yu!"

Oh God. My fingers grew tighter around my head in a poor attempt to cage in the growing headache. They're at it again. I didn't need to turn my head to see the figures of Kanda Yu and Alma Karma standing there bickering in all their pint-sized glory, I already knew they were there. As if their ruckus wasn't a huge indication.

"Qin!" My eyes lifted meeting wide blue puppy eyes. Big mistake. "Yu's being super mean to me again!"

No. No. No. Don't show me that pout.

"Ouch!" Alma's face contorted in pain as a Kanda shoved his elbow into his stomach, "What the hell was that for!"

"Are you deaf? I said get lost!"

"Yu!"

I groaned, slamming my head against the dark wood table rattling the plates and deeply wishing that one day I would just wake up in my own world and all this would just be a nightmare to be shared and forgotten. That hope was thinner than a crepe considering I've been stuck here for weeks.

"You looking for a fight?" Chaos erupted before my eyes and fine china were thrown about. The scientists started freaking out, clamouring left and right, trying to stop the two love birds who had too much fire in their souls and fists.

With general disinterest, I took a sip from my cup. Oh, it's Pu'er. How delightful.

"Qin? You're drinking tea at a time like this?" Oh, scientist freaking out two o'clock, "Aren't you going to stop them?"

I blinked, "No?"

"Qin."

"No," I could feel a scowl building on, "I don't feel like it."

More shattering chinas, "Qin!"

"It's my day off and you can't make me!" I snatched my tea up and ran out of the mess hall leaving behind the erupting disaster and ignoring every kind of screams that reached my ears.

Serves them right.

As I clicked my tongue and savoured my tea, I couldn't help but to wonder, just how the hell did I end up in this situation?

Believe it or not, it was one of those days; the ones that were so awful that all you would want to do is to scream at the heavens to give you a freaking break and then hit every bar in town to drown your sorrows…except, I didn't hit any bars, no, that's too expansive…Instead I crashed a party celebrating some university's mate birthday or something (I don't really care to recall)…heading straight for the refreshments table and chugging down whatever cans of beer I could get my hands on. Anything to get a little relief and just not think even if it was for a night.

If I had any idea what will happen afterwards, I would've just high tail it out of there and spend the remainder of my miserable week at home watching horror flicks (screaming at dumb protagonists of course) and eating ice cream out of the tubs.

But I didn't, and that was my first mistake.

Alice chased after the white rabbit…

"I dare you!" The girl stumbled forward, red lips twisting into a smirk as she jabbed her sharp manicured finger into the curve of my collarbone, "To walk on the railings of this very balcony!"

I should've said no…turn back, gone home…but in that instant, all eyes snapped towards me, shinning with expectations that built up the high walls closing in on me…and before I knew it…I was standing on the cast iron railing with nothing but a rope around my waist and a crimson umbrella resting against the crook of my neck.

My eyes couldn't help to be dragged downwards…taking in everything from the miniature lamp posts lined up symmetrically, blobs of humans going about their business in the night and the eerie blue glowing pool waters that would soon dyed red. An uncomfortable feeling tangled itself in my stomach. I didn't want to do that.

But my feet moved on their own, taking a step forward. My heart leaping into my throat as the rusted paint scraped sharply against the sole of my shoes. A nervous laughter slipped, drowned out by their incessant cheering and the nauseating beats blasting through the speakers.

I will get through this…I told myself as I held out the umbrella with shaking hands. The cold night air bit into my skin, intensifying the shivers running down every part of my body. I couldn't back down…not now…not in front of everyone…My jaw tightened. This was it. It was now or never…Deftly, I pushed the umbrella open, red flaps bounced wide, blinding me for a moment…and screams ripped through the night.

Down and down, Alice fell…

Why were they screaming? My clouded mind could barely grasp it. It wasn't until the umbrella ripped itself away from my fingers and the frayed rope fluttered before my sight that I realised with piercing dread…that I was falling.

But it was already too late.

The red of the umbrella against the white calm moon was the last thing I saw before my body hit the ground and death came, claiming my senses one by one until all that was left was darkness.

That should've been the end…but by the hand of some twisted fate…it wasn't. Because the next thing I knew, I was pulling myself out of the pit of golden sap, gasping for air and meeting face to face with something that shouldn't exist beyond the realm of ink and paper in a book that was in my dorm room…Alma Karma.

And when she awakens, Alice found herself in Wonderland…

But I'm not Alice, and this isn't Wonderland.

Welcome to my nightmare.

Welcome to D. Gray -Land.

This is the preview of the story that I'm extremely excited to write!

What do you think? I would really like to know. Leave a review (only when you want to) and tell me what you think. Believe it or not, I have big plans for this story. Buckle up, folks. It's going to be one hell of a ride. Oh, by the way, why is it so hard to write D. Gray-Man in here? It keeps erasing the D . Gray part.

The plot bunnies has been running wild in my mind ever since I caught wind that the Anime is continuing. It's like a fan's dream come true. Who else is excited for the return of the anime?

Yule.
