Wonderland chap 1 part 4

At first all Alice saw was complete darkness, she couldn’t even see her outstretched hands that were only a few inches away from her eyes. Then she felt something cool, thin, and distinctly metal like which, as she felt it up, found it was a chain. When she tugged there was a distinct click in which she could suddenly see everything around her. Lamps of all different shapes, sizes, and colors floated around her as she made her slow descent. Some floated on their own while others stood on little coffee tables or stools. There were also several cupboards and book shelves lining the walls they to floated randomly about the tunnels space.
Still not being able to subdue her curiosity Alice reached into one of the passing cupboards and took out a dusty little glass jar. Dusting it off she read the words ORANGE MARMALADE which made her mouth salivate after half swallowing a mouthful of dirt. But to her great disappointment it contents were gone and she solemnly left the jar on a levitating table.
Some of the furniture often came into Alice’s path or bumped into her. Once an old creaking rocking chair came out from behind her and nearly sent her crashing into a round table laid with broken tea cups.
After a few moments passed Alice began to think why she had not reached the bottom and but then again, she thought was there a bottom? And why couldn’t she see the rabbit anywhere? Surely with all of these lights she would be able to see him below her? But all she was an endless tunnel of lights.
I wonder what Charlotte would say if I told her I fallen this long it must have been about five minutes at least. She’d probably think I’m so childish. No she’d probably put her no nonsense face on and won’t even give me a second thought.
All of a sudden Alice felt this strong pulling on her feet as if a pair of hands was tugging on her ankles. Alice was able to let out a little squeak before she was yanked so hard and fast she could only see the lights around her in a swirl together violently into a blended blur.
A cold hard surface met with her body with a loud thump which winded her for several moments. Well that was rather an abrupt ending, she thought. Looking up she saw she was in a rather large room, so large in fact that she couldn’t even see ceiling above her. When she finally got up she looked to her far right and white rabbit scamper towards a two large red doors.
“Oh there he is.”
As she got closer she began to hear the rabbit talking or what sounded like bickering. But when she looked about herself she couldn’t see anything besides the distant walls of the room, the doors, and the rabbit.
“Are you talking to yourself Mr. Rabbit?” Alice asked when she was nearly beside the little creature.
The rabbit whipped around so fast Alice barely had time to react.
“HOW IN THE QUEEN’S NAME DID YOU GET HERE?!!”
Alice blinked a little surprised that such a small animal could make so much noise. And she somehow managed to say her answer.
“Well I followed you down the hole you went through, that’s how. And might I add that it is a very long tunnel. Just how long exactly is it? And-”
“BUT HOW COULD YOU HAVE FOLLOWED ME! THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE!” He started to pull his ears again and Alice started to get this urge to touch them. I wonder if they are soft.
