Alice and the White Rabbit. An unforgettable duo. But their story isn't just that of a little girl following a perpetually late bunny into Wonderland. No, it's a tale of a master and apprentice, whose affection and trust is destroyed thanks to corruption and a lust for power.
Upon hearing that the Marquis de Hoto had been seen in Mousewood, Alice Liddell hurries to see for herself if her fallen teacher has truly escaped. But what's worse; eternally living with the guilt of having betrayed the mentor she once admired, or the fear that he's returned and is out for revenge? Or perhaps, the knowledge that no matter what, a piece of her heart will always belong to him?
(I’m always a bit nervous posting my fanfics on Tumblr, especially for ones that don’t have a huge fandom like “The Night of the Rabbit,” but I’m really proud of this one and if posting it here gets more people into this lovely game, it’ll be worth it. So please give it a read.)
