"Ugh she isn't a very pretty flower," sighed the tiny petunia with elegant feathers. The bulb that wasn't fully grown shook his head.

"Because 'she' isn't a flower, Yumi. By the way, 'she' is a 'he-"

"Ikkaku," Yumichika snapped. "I know a flower when I see a flower-"

.

"I'm Shiro." said the pale albino boy with white ears. He flicked his tail at Ichigo's nose. "You're quite the cutie, aren't you? Wearing a little blue dress and a white little apron. I think I might just-"

.

"Grimmjow Jeagerjaques," the blue haired boy said, putting a hand out with a crazy yet charming grin. "And your name is?-"

.

"Off with his head!" cried a little brunette, eyes flaming up. "NOW!-"

.

"You must slay the Jabberwocky." said the little white queen, Shinji. "The fate of Wonderland lies with you-"

.

"You did it." Grimmjow whispered with disbelief. "You killed the Jabberwocky! Ichi-"

.

"You can stay, you know." Grimmjow fiddled with his top hat, glancing at him pleadingly. "You can stay. I-"

.

"I don't want to go."

.

"Mom." Ichigo said, brown eyes watering as he clutched at her dress. Masaki smiled down at her son before giving an apologetic look to her business partner, Ilyfort. Ilyfort nodded his head and waved to the little boy, Ichigo giving a shy wave back.

Leading Ichigo back to his room, Masaki laid him on the bed and kissed his forehead. "What's wrong, dear?"

Ichigo sniffled, tears running down his face. "I had the strangest dream."

"Oh?" Masaki asked curiously.

"I was in a strange land, and there was a boy with cat ears and a tail, a rabbit with a purple mask, a girl who had mouse parts, a red queen how liked to play croquet, a white queen who was very kind, and a boy with top hat with bright blue hair!" Ichigo bit his lip. "But then it all ended after I got rid of their problem. And I'm back here." Fingering the bed sheets Ichigo looked up at his mother. "For some reason I thought it was all real, and I wanted to stay on top of that! But, of course, I'd bring you and Dad with me, also Ulquiorra! But...have I gone mad?"

"Mad?" Masaki grinned a bit at the boy who looked up at her with awe filled brown orbs. "Whatever do you mean?"

"Am I crazy? Have I lost my mind?"

Masaki giggled a bit, tickling Ichigo's stomach. Ichigo squealed, tinkles of laughter streaming out of his mouth. By the time she was done tickling him Ichigo was trying to catch his breath. Masaki placed a gentle hand on his forehead and she frowned. "I'm afraid so. You're entirely bonkers." Ichigo gasped. "But I'll tell you a secret; all the best people are."

Ichigo opened his mouth, before shutting it closed. He laughed, hugging his mother tightly.

-CHAPTER 1: Curiosor and Curiosor-

--

Ichigo bowed at the picture of his mother; a beautiful woman with auburn locks of hair and warm gentle eyes. Ichigo's heart clenched. "I'm going out now, Mom. I'll be home soon." Ichigo turned on his heels but paused as two kittens came tumbling behind him. Smiling warmly, he crouched down with his dress sweeping on the floor lightly.

"I'll be back, Yuzu, Karin." He giggled a bit (much to his pride's displeasure) as Yuzu, the golden furred tabby, licked his hand affectionately. Karin, a black furred tabby, bumped her nose against Ichigo's hand before rubbing against it. With a reluctant sigh Ichigo got up as he waved to the kittens, shutting the door behind him.

He blinked hurriedly as light penetrated his vision, his chocolate brown eyes adjusting to the bright melancholy sky above him. 'It's like it's going to rain, but isn't...' A cloud shaped as a rabbit caught his eye as he sprinted towards the carriage, way down the cobble stone pathway, making him slow down slightly.

Then he envisioned his infuriated brother's face, so ignoring the cloud, he made a mad dash towards the black rickety carriage. Huffing and panting, Ichigo pulled himself up and opened the door before shoving himself in. Wiping the sweat off his brow he met the duly unimpressed gaze of his elder brother, Ulquiorra and the amused gaze of his father, Isshin.

"Where is your corsage, Ichigo?" the pale brother asked frowning slightly. "Your dress...it is different than the one we picked out for you. What happened to the white dress?"

Ichigo scowled. "That dress was way too frilly and its ribbons were all over the place.

Isshin smiled stupidly, leaning forward to hug his son. "My darling son! You look so beauti-GUH!"

Ichigo elbowed his father square in the face, hissing. "Don't you dare call me what you were just about to say!" Ichigo looked at his wrist as something slid on it. The redhead frowned as he noticed a white rose corsage adorning his wrist. "Ulquiorra!" he whined indignantly.

"You're lucky I had an extra corsage with me, for situations just like this. Thankfully it matches your dress." Ulquiorra sighed. "It's very casual, though."

"Casual is good. There's no need to be so formal." Ichigo said, more than a little miffed. He looked down at his dress. It fit perfectly, hugging his body in all the right spots. It was a pale, almost periwinkle blue; dull faded lace encircling his poofy sleeves and the front of his bodice. It was almost like a pretty night gown. The dress his father and brother had wanted him to wear was way too extravagant; it was more like a bridesmaid dress or a wedding gown, if you asked him.

"Try not to look like you are going to strangle something." said Ulquiorra as he gently rubbed Ichigo's tense shoulder.

Feeling like a spoiled brat, Ichigo frowned deeply. "Mom wouldn't have minded if I had a pretty dress or a lovely corsage. She would've have told me I was already a pretty as a rose without a corsage."

Isshin and Ulquiorra visibly winced, and Ichigo regretted his comment immediately. "Dad...Ulquiorra...I shouldn't have brought that up-"

"It's fine." Ulquiorra stated. "Mom would have said that exactly. But for now, please wear your corsage." Ichigo gave a reluctant sigh before retracting his hand to the side.

The carriage came to a screeching halt and Ichigo nearly got whiplash. The doors opened, one after the other left the carriage carefully...well, Ichigo leapt out ungracefully; his dress going up showing off his knees (and almost his thighs) before falling back down. Looking up, Ichigo nearly groaned.

Szayel Aporro Grantz stood in front of him, leering and smirking intensely at him. Beside him was his brother, Ilyfort Grantz.

Ichigo really didn't like Szayel. He was sadistic, creepy, perverse and god did he have the brightest coloured hair Ichigo had ever seen! Ichigo often pondered on the fact if Szayel's head could be used as light when in fog or some other strange weather-oriented situation. Not only that, Szayel asked the strangest questions! Glaring at Ulquiorra, he scowled miserably.

Isshin was busy shaking Ilyfort's hands, talking animatedly while the blonde talked just as wildly back. Ulquiorra shook hands with Szayel and when Ichigo didn't move, Ulquiorra discreetly elbowed him. Ichigo snapped out of his daze and at once curtsied.

"Hello, Szayel."

"Ichigo." the pink haired man purred. Ichigo shivered in disgust. While Ilyfort was whispering something to Szayel Ichigo took that chance to tug on Ulquiorra's dress sleeve in earnest.

"Ulquiorra why do have to greet with these two?! Szayel...ugh. He's so weird! He asked me one time if my underwear was combustible!"

Ulquiorra's emerald eyes widen for a fraction of a second. "You'll have to bear with it for the moment." Ulquiorra patted his younger brother's head before walking off. "I have to go see Kenpachi now."

Ichigo pouted. That's right; the only reason Ulquiorra was with him and his father in the carriage this morning was because he helped plan what dress Ichigo was to wear to the party. Otherwise, Ulquiorra would have been back at his home with Kenpachi. Ichigo scratched the back of his head thoughtfully. What was this party for, anyway? Shaking his head, he waved goodbye to his pale brother who was going to see his husband and was immediately repulsed as Szayel's hand groped his ass.

"W-watch where you're touching!" Ichigo nearly screeched, if it wasn't for Szayel's soft hand covering his mouth. "Shall we dance, Ichigo?"

Staring at him in hate, Ichigo was about to decline (with a pleasant 'Fuck you, pinky!') when Isshin patted his back reassuringly. "Go on, son! Enjoy yourself!"

Ichigo glared at his father heatedly as he was dragged off forcefully. Isshin's happy face remained until Ichigo faded into the crowd of dancing couples. Isshin frowned. "Ilyfort, Ichigo won't be happy with him."

Ilyfort nodded his head. "As I suspected; but this is arranged. My husband's wish before he died." The blonde patted his back. "Ichigo will live a stable life after he accepts it."

Isshin shook his head, chuckling dryly. "I can't believe you set this up. Ichigo's engagement party. He'll blow a fuse when he figures it out."

"I wouldn't doubt it. The twins down there are blabbering Betty's. Sooner than later, I suppose. He'll get out all his potty mouth words by then."

--

"Ichigo for the love of god, snap out of it!" Szayel drawled.

Ichigo blinked, looking away from the sky. He smiled a bit at Szayel despite his hatred for him. "The clouds look like circus animals!"

Szayel looked at him stupidly, twirling Ichigo once more before stopping. "They did say you were easily distracted..." Shaking his head and putting a hand to his forehead flamboyantly he smiled. "Meet me under the gazebo in ten minutes, sharp. I have something to tell you."

Ichigo raised a quizzical orange brow as Szayel strode off. Shrugging to himself, Ichigo walked off to find some refreshments...

Until a VERY hard head hit his own.

"OW! WHAT THE HELL?!" Ichigo hissed out, rubbing his abused forehead. He blinked with tears dotting his eyes at a beaming auburn haired girl. "Inoue? And let me guess...Matsumoto?"

As if on cue, a strawberry blonde popped up beside Orihime, giving an equally scary smile. "Hi Ichigo!" they said in perfect unison. "We have a secret! Wanna know what it is?"

Rangiku snickered. "I don't know, Hime. He doesn't seem like the type of person who'd keep a secret."

"Neither are we, though, Ran." Orihime chided with a silly giggle. The two girls burst into a giggling fest once more.

Curious as always, Ichigo nodded his head quickly. Orihime and Rangiku looked at each other, grinning stupidly, before turning their gaze back on the cutely staring Ichigo. "We won't tell you!"

Ichigo pouted and scowled at the same time, crossing his arms. "What? Now you have me all worked up! Just tell me!"

"Nope!" they giggled, linking arms and their grins increased in size (a size in which would rival their astounding busts).

Ichigo about to complain more, stopped when he thought of a very devious blackmailing idea. Smirking, he said lowly, "Your mother doesn't know you two went skinny dipping together, does she?"

Orihime and Rangiku's eyes widened like saucers. "You wouldn't! You couldn't!"

"Oh I would and I could..." Tea eyes got a sudden sadistic look to them. "So, wanna tell me your secret?"

Looking at each other in haste they both blurted out, "This party is actually an engagement party for you! Szayel is going to propose to you under the gazebo!"

Ichigo's mouth hung open, looking at the two beauties incredulously. Ichigo had NOT been expecting that. With a look of disgust he shivered. "N-no way! That's just...no!" Orihime gave him a pitying look, and was about to comfort him, but she froze as a pale hand clutched her shoulder.

Ulquiorra.

"You two; you've spoiled the surprise."

"Quick, Hime!" Rangiku laughed. Making a mad dash, Rangiku pushed Ulquiorra and grabbed her sister's wrist, running away speedily with their pink dresses trailing behind them. Ulquiorra sighed while shaking his head. "You weren't supposed to know that."

Ichigo glared fiercely. "There is no way in hell I am marrying him."

Emerald eyes locked with brown eyes. "You'll be 'happy', Ichigo. Finically secure, stable; you'll have a safe and happy family. You'll be helping out father. If you marry Szayel, his inheritance will belong to you as well and putting our money together, we can afford to buy off the house for father and give him a life of his own..." Ulquiorra squeezed Ichigo's hand and Ichigo looked away as his stomach tied up in knots. "Ichigo. I won't make decisions for you. This is one you have to pick on your own."

Ichigo nodded his head, bringing Ulquiorra in for a brotherly hug. "Ulquiorra...I don't know."

Ulquiorra patted his head. "Ilyfort is coming this way. He wants to have a talk with you. Act natural and pretend you don't know anything. You know how he gets when surprises are spoiled."

Ichigo felt a tap on his shoulder as Ulquiorra walked away. He turned to see a smiling blonde. Ichigo quickly curtsied. "Ilyfort."

"Shall we take a walk, Ichigo?"

"I would like that." Ichigo replied with a fake plastered smile on his face. Linking their arms together, Ilyfort lead them to the pathway surrounded by tall evergreen hedges.

--

"...and Szayel has horrible allergies in the spring time; his face and buttocks gets all swollen and red-"

Ugh. Ichigo so did not need to know all this. With Ilyfort spilling all of Szayel's physical and emotional secrets, Ichigo wasn't so sure if he could go through with marrying Szayel. Just as the blonde got into the more sexual details, Ichigo caught something in the corner of his eye.

He cocked his head to the right, and the he nearly gasped in surprise as the hedges jiggled and shook. They shuffled and shifted and wobbled and waved, Ichigo's heart quickening in excitement. A pair of ears caught his eyes and that was when the peak of curiosity burst. "Did you see that?" he said, looking at Ilyfort anxiously.

"See what?" the blonde asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"In the bushes! I think there's a rabbit!"

Ilyfort made a 'tsk' sound before shaking his head, pulling Ichigo along once more. "We have so many of those pesky things. I'll just send the dogs out to eat it." Ichigo's eyes widen in fear as Ilyfort licked his lips. "They do love a good rabbit."

"How could you say-" Ichigo started, but was interrupted by Ilyfort.

"Oh and Szayel loves fucking missionary style. But he has many kinks here and there, judging by the strange limping strangers who leave the house at two o'clock in the morning. One left with nothing but a collar on!" Somehow this was amusing and the blonde burst out laughing.

Ichigo was staring at Ilyfort like he had horns on his head he shook the man away as the bushes moved once more. "I'm sorry but, I just have to go for a moment!" Leaving a flabbergasted blonde, Ichigo ran down the pathway following the movement in the bushes. Just as he was about to take a different route where a large oak tree stood, Ichigo froze at the sight beside him.

Kenpachi was lip locking with some brunette chick! Trembling with anger Ichigo kicked Kenpachi on his side, the girl squeaking fear and running off. "What the fuck Kenpachi?! You're making out with some random girl while you're married to my brother?!"

Kenpachi said nothing, simply eyeing Ichigo hungrily. Ichigo not noticing continued ranting. "Give me one good reason why I shouldn't open my mouth and go tell Ulquiorra what you're doing behind his back?"

Kenpachi stepped forward, the tail of his jacket swishing. He grabbed Ichigo's arm and pulled him close, shoving a large leg between Ichigo's own long legs. "Because you'll be opening your mouth for something else." Kenpachi said beside Ichigo's ear, licking the shell of it with his breath sending unwanted tingles down Ichigo's spine. Ichigo narrowed his eyes, making his knee go up to hit Kenpachi in the groin.

Kenpachi groaned in pain, Ichigo pushing him away at once. "You perverted bastard!" Just as Ichigo was going to run off to tell his brother, Kenpachi's booming voice spoke.

"If you tell him imagine how heart broken he would be? Not only that, if we got a divorce, he would be forced to live with your father again without a job." Getting up, Kenpachi smiled knowingly at him. "You wouldn't want your father and brother to go broke in that house, now would you? Without me and Ulquiorra's funds, the inheritance you gain from Szayel can't help your father."

Ichigo bit his lip. "Damn..." With a glare he snapped at Kenpachi, "I won't say a word, but you better stop fooling around!"

Triumphantly grinning, Kenpachi waved at him. "You better get going to the gazebo, Ichi." Ichigo scowled at the pet name. "Szayel would be furious if you were late."

Ichigo flipped him off before sprinting to the gazebo, nearly falling over at the amount of people staring at him. So the twins weren't lying when this was a party for him. Walking slowly up to the steps of the gazebo, he nearly cringed as Szayel's eyes looked him over with lust. Ugh. When Ichigo was finally in the gazebo he let his gaze cast onto the crowd. There was his father, looking at him with a bit of melancholy in his eyes. Ulquiorra was staring at him without emotion, while Kenpachi was checking out one of the men beside him. Orihime was staring at him longingly while Rangiku was smiling excitedly.

Ichigo was expected to this and to do that, but what about what he wanted? His poor, broke father broke into his selfish thoughts and he looking down at the pink haired kneeling in front of him.

"Ichigo Kurosaki, will you marry me?"

'Will I? I have to. Do I want to? Hell no.' Ichigo noticed the blue caterpillar on Szayel's shoulder. He pointed. "There's a caterpillar on your shoulder."

Szayel who was expecting him to say yes, smiled. "Perfect now we can- wait. What?"

"Caterpillar. On your shoulder." Ichigo repeated. And what a lovely caterpillar it was! Blue and elegant, Ichigo couldn't tear his eyes away.

...land....Wonderland...come...

'Who said that?' Ichigo wondered, eyes flickering around the area.

Szayel lifted a hand up to remove it. "I'll just take it to my lab and dissect it-"

"What? No!" Ichigo said, slapping the pink haired man's hand away. "It hasn't done anything to you." Carefully Ichigo picked it up with a serene smile, leaning over the railing to put it on the hedges. Turning back to Szayel the man huffed.

"Ichigo Kurosaki," he held out his pink gloved hand. "Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?"

Ichigo come back to us...Wonderland...Wonderland...!

Ichigo gulped. His father was watching, his brother Ulquiorra was watching, Kenpachi was watching, the twins were watching, everyone was watching. With a shaky intake of breath, about to reply yes to please everyone, movement in the hedges caught his eye and he saw the rabbit.

"I'm...sorry Szayel." Szayel faltered at once, eyes enlarging. "This is just all too much to take right now. I have to go." With that, Ichigo sprinted after the rabbit.

Nearly tripping up the muddy pathway to the large oak tree Ichigo frowned as the purple masked rabbit jumped down the rabbit hole. Ichigo sat on his knees and put his hands out on the edges of the of the base of the stump, leaning forward to get a better look. 'Wow, this hole is very deep!'

"Hello? Mr. Rabbit? Hey are you down there?" Leaning forward more, the rock he had been putting pressure on cracked and crumbled. Ichigo yelped, falling down into the hole.

"AHHHH!!!!"

A/N: Abrupt ending! :O Don't worry; I'm already into the second chapter so...I'm so excited about this project! XD Sorry if anything got confusing. XD Oh and just so this is clarified, Ichigo is 19 right now. In the flashback he was ten.

Also, all the women wear dresses at the party, so I figured 'why not all the ukes?' and BAM! Ichigo landed himself in a dress alongside Ulquiorra. XD Because Ulquiorra would NEVER top Kenpachi. Never. (If someone wrote that and actually pulled it off, I might bow down...). Gomen, KenIchi fans; Kenpachi is nothing but a side perv in this story. XD This is actually (technically) the last chapter he speaks. XO

So yessshhhh technically you guys got to see Grimmjow this chapter but at the same time you didn't but rest assured; Grimmjow shall appear soon. :) I have the cast all set up, yayyyy!! X3 When the story is complete, I'll put up the cast list for those who still aren't sure who's who. Well thank you for reading!!! :D :D
