An Alice for the Vampire

I woke up dizzy and confused. A train? A Madland? What was that?I looked around to see some letters the maid left on my table.“That’s strange, I thought my brother forbade them from giving me my mail.”To my surprise, the letters were even sealed.“That’s even stranger! They didn’t check on my mail! Wait… What if it’s not a maid that got me those letters?”I held my breath and opened the first letter that was an invitation.Greetings,After studying your application under a full scholarship, we are glad to announce your admission to our exclusive school, Madland, where the secrets of the universe are waiting to be uncovered.At Madland, you will be challenged to think deeply, to question everything you thought you knew, and to explore the depths of your own mind.

"Good God…”Next day, I was speechless when opening the class door. Behind it, there was a man that God made in his spare time. He had a striking appearance, with chiseled features, sharp cheekbones, and piercing eyes that seem to glow even in dim light. He was tall, with a lean frame and carried himself with an air of sophistication. In fact, he was the most sophisticated professor I met in my life!I was late, gasping for air as I spent the last ten minutes running as a mad man. But when I saw him, I had a strange feeling of serenity. “This is not a deja vu. He is indeed the man I dreamt about in Eden…” I told myself.“Ahm,” on the other hand, he didn’t look that happy to see me. “I don’t believe you break on that late miss, AND on your first day.”The professor took off his glasses and smirked, “In fact, I need a good reason to accept you in my class.” The class got silent. How mean! It was nine and a minute! One minute! You won’t humiliate me for being one minute late! “I apologi

I opened the door. But behind it, there wasn't a room. In fact, there was a garden.As I stepped through the doorway, I was hit by a gust of warm, fragrant air. The garden was like nothing I had ever seen before. Lush greenery, exotic flowers, and a sparkling pond surrounded me. The sunlight shone down on me from above, casting dappled shadows over the ground.I looked around, my eyes wide in wonder. The garden was incredibly beautiful, and I couldn't believe that it was hidden behind a door in the school. As I walked deeper into the garden, I noticed a figure sitting by the pond. It was Mr. Darking.He looked up as I approached, his eyes meeting mine. "Amira," he said, a small smile on his lips. "What a naughty girl you are.""What is this place?" I asked, looking around in amazement."This," he said, gesturing to the garden around us, "is a sanctuary. It's a place where I come to escape the chaos of the school, to find peace and quiet.""It's beautiful," I said, taking in the scener

"Ladies and gentlemen! I brought you Alice!" Mr. Darking announced, his voice echoing through the room. The black-coated and white-hatted individuals turned their attention towards me, their eyes wide with curiosity. I blinked, feeling a bit overwhelmed by the sudden attention. "Um, hello," I greeted with a sheepish smile. "Nice to meet all of you, I suppose." A man in a black coat with a remarkably long and crooked nose stepped forward, adjusting his hat. "Ah, the elusive Alice! We've been awaiting your arrival for quite some time," he said, his voice nasally and dramatic. "And who might you be?" I asked, trying to keep a straight face but failing miserably. "I am the Notorious Nosedive, the Grand Inquisitor of the Black Coats!" he exclaimed dramatically, striking a pose. I stifled a giggle. "The Notorious Nosedive? Well, that's quite a name you've got there." Meanwhile, a woman in a white hat with a fluffy feather stepped forward, her voice tinged with excitement. "And I am Mis

"Come on, darling," Mr. Darking said, extending his hand towards the Chronically Delayed Bunny. The bunny hopped onto his palm with a grateful smile. "We should go back to school. They are searching for you everywhere. It's no longer safe to continue our magical trip.""May I bring the bunny?" I asked shyly."Of course, honey," Mr. Darking replied, his voice filled with warmth and reassurance. Mr Darking touched my forhead gently casting e sleeping spell on me. And I felt even dizzier.As we floated down from the teapot saucer, I felt exhaustion wash over me. The adrenaline of the chase had finally caught up, and I couldn't fight off the weariness any longer. Mr. Darking noticed my drooping eyelids and gently lifted me into his arms."You've had quite an adventure, my dear," he whispered softly. "It's time to rest now."He carried me through the enchanting land of tea-induced madness, past the peculiar creatures and the chaos of the chase. As we wa
