Jabberwock Novels & Stories

A full shiver racked Winnie's frame, and she stared at me fearfully for a moment before she suddenly shrieked at the top of her lungs while holding her head, attracting everyone's attention. "Quick, sedate her!" She ordered frantically. "She's hallucinating because of the fire, so we can't believe what she says! She's gone mad!" No one moved in response, only looking at her with puzzled expressions. Clearly, she seemed like the one who'd gone mad instead of me.

“And get a chance to dine with the Mad Hatter? Drink tea with the Hare? Hells yes. I’ll even take the Vorpal blade and slay the Jabberwocky with it. Off with his head!” Alice laughed aloud. “I had no idea you’d read the books.” “Books? There are books as in plural?” “Yes, dumbo, there’s a sequel called Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There,” she said, punching my waist playfully as we walked. “I see. I see. So where would our Alice want to travel next?” I asked eagerly. “Somewhere where she can be alone with you and have her way with you,” she said slyly, squeezing my butt.

Yellow said, his voice crisp and annoyingly smug. I nearly threw my boot at him. Behind him, two more small figures bounded out. Carotin—ever the chubby carrot-colored squirrel—chattered happily, waving his tiny paws like I hadn’t been gone for an eternity. And the apple trees? Yeah, they started humming. Freaking humming, like a chorus of nosy aunts gossiping at a tea party. I rubbed my temples. “I’ve officially lost it. I’m hallucinating woodland karaoke.” “You’re not hallucinating,” Mr. Yellow said, hopping closer. His little nose twitched, his golden fur shimmering faintly with magical aura. “You’ve begun the trial.”

“Fuck you, Nyx.” “Oh, hush. You were always so dramatic.” Something flickers beside me. A shape that I recognize. Small and white, fading in and out of existence like rapid pulses. “Bubbles?” I whisper. The rabbit flickers into full form for a breath, her ears flattened, fur standing on end, eyes glowing faintly gold. Then she vanishes again. Nyxara rolls her eyes. “Oh, for the love of the old gods, stay still, sister. You’re giving me a headache.”

An oblong, vertical cut in reality, hanging just above the drift of paper inside the monster’s broken back. It didn’t glow bright like the lockbook. It was darker than the ink we’d just crawled out of—a void edged in faint, flickering light, like someone had taken an eraser to the world and left nothing behind. Wind—or is code‑equivalent—rushed toward it, sucking stray pages and clumps of text into its hungry mouth. “Portal,” Jax said, breathing hard. “Please tell me that’s a portal and not, like, the trash compactor for souls.”

The teeth were far too long, deadly and sharp. Harris' eyes widened as he stared blankly at the creature, “What the hell is that?” I swallowed, my mind racing as I got up on my feet. “A Ratjaw.” I whispered under my breath, “And this should not be possible,” I stared at the monster rabbit for one more second before I started to reach for my telekinesis powers, “Shit.”

Ink walks over to me asking if I was okay, I smile thanking him where he shakes his head. "I should be the one thanking you, you helped me get out of a situation where I'd probably be in to the day I died" he smiles, I mean I didn't do much I just knew what was best for him "oh I got you this, back when we had our first conversation you mentioned something about mice drinking milk, so I thought I'd buy you a book" he smiles, handing me a little book with a mouse on the front, I can't believe he remembered that was so long ago. He picks Amelia up telling me he wanted to show her a cool fish tank, while I flip through the book, once I find the answer I turn to look at Blake.

They came to a shuddering halt like we were playing a game of musical statues, limbs in unnatural poses as they wobbled trying to keep their balance. “What is it?” asked Maurice. “Quicksand?” We were standing on perfectly solid ground, not sinking from view, so I don’t know why that was his first thought. “It’s the jabberwock. It’s a giant worm that’s under us right now. I think it’s attracted to movement so try to keep as still as possible.” “How big is it?” asked Claire. “Enormous,” said Jenny. “It ate Keezy.” There was a murmur of surprise and disbelief.

A low growl was heard by Stella and the same was heard by Benjamin but both thought it was just their illusion. Stella ignored her inner voice and continued to talk to Lima. But then something strange happened frightening everyone. Tehran was once upon a time called Hamster the city where Princess Veronica ruled. It was past twelve in the night. The power was down and there were no street lights glowing. Benjamin and Stella were passing through the road of the mansion Princess Veronica had locked long years ago. The street was completely dark and dead silent but suddenly strange voices were heard from the mansion. "Come on release me. Come here.... please...." There was a desperate growling

As she wanted to think of a way to get out of these chains, that voice called out to her. *Alexandra* *Find me* The same way this was happening, the human lab rat in the next room was hearing her own voice in his head. The two fell into a short dream state. The two saw each other from a far distance and were walking towards each other. They continued to walk till they had reached each other and were shocked on facing themselves. *I'm the lab rat here. He made me this* he said *My blood will be used to create a beast out of you, I'm sorry*
