When Alexa awoke, she was sprawled on a bed of soft moss, surrounded by giant, luminous mushrooms. The air hummed with an unseen energy. The sky was a chaotic swirl of purple and orange. This was no ordinary place. She sat up, her Little Miss Bliss attire seeming strangely out of place. "Bray?" she called out, her voice echoing eerily. "Bray, are you here?" A Cheshire Cat grin materialized in the air before her, widening impossibly. "He is everywhere, and nowhere, my dear. Wonderland has a way of doing that." The grin solidified into a lanky figure draped in tattered finery. The Mad Hatter, but... different. Twisted. Darker.

  "And who might you be, little miss?" the Hatter crooned, bowing deeply. Alexa stood, her initial fear morphing into a dangerous excitement. "I'm Alexa Bliss. And I think... I'm going to like it here." Meanwhile, Bray Wyatt watched from a hidden vantage point, a knowing smile spreading across his face. "Let the game begin," he murmured. "Let's see what kind of madness you can unleash in Wonderland, Alexa. Let's see if you can survive."

  He knew Wonderland was a reflection of the soul. And he knew Alexa's soul held a darkness that even he, the Eater of Worlds, had yet to fully comprehend. This was more than just a game. This was a test. And he had a feeling that Wonderland, and Alexa, were about to change everything. The rabbit hole was only the beginning.
