So much for even a peppermint stick, Alice thought as the liquid submerged her completely under. She closed her eyes and breathed as if it were oxygen, which oddly enough worked. Opening her eyes, she found herself to a bit lethargic and everything around her was a light-ish blue. She tried to walk forward, but it was sort of hard when your entire body felt like jello.

"So, now what?" she asked, feeling a bit impatient -God, how she craved nicotine. There wouldn't be enough cigarettes to fill in this void, not at the time being. Alice relaxed, resisting the urge to whip out a smoke right then and there -but who knows what good that'll do. Instead, she closed her eyes once more and bit her lip, awaiting further instructions.
