Background[]
Once Upon a Time in Wonderland[]
In "Down the Rabbit Hole," Alice was locked in an asylum, believing Cyrus to be dead until Will Scarlett broke her free and told her that the White Rabbit saw him alive. Returning to Wonderland, they are told by the White Rabbit that Cyrus was last seen at the house where the Mad Hatter once resided in.Alice got Will to help by promising to give him one of her wishes on Tulgee Woods, where she climbed up top to gain a better view, leaving her boots that contained the red gems. She encounters the Cheshire Cat, believing him t be a friend until he tries to eat her. Will comes to rescue her at the last minute by shrinking Cheshire Cat, who runs off. Alice and Will make their way towards the Mad hatter's home, only to find it empty. However she finds his talisman that she remembers him wearing, which gives her proof that Cyrus is still alive.
In "Trust Me," after gaining new clothes, Alice wakes Will up and they decide to find Cyrus' bottle, which she claims is buried in Mimsy Meadows under the Tumtum tree, which is false, but she says this to throw off anyone who may be eavesdropping. They encountered a lake and the only way to cross it was with help from the fairy Silvermist, whose heart was broken by Will, who provokes her and causes her to let him fall, with Alice following after. Escaping the lake on the back of a mock turtle, Silvermist confronts Will about the bounty on his head by the Caterpillar. After Will apologizes to her and reveals that Alice has lost her love, being Silvermist to not let her and Cyrus suffer. Knowing they are up against Jafar after lying about the Lamp being hidden there and witnessing the Agrabah sorcerer finding it, Alice takes Will to where the Lamp really is, in the Greener Pastures near a dandy-lion sculpted tree, only to find it gone. Just as Alice is about to give up hope, a paper swan lands on her and she immediately opens it, to find that it is a message from Cyrus which tells her to leave Wonderland for her sake. Instead. Alice writes on the back of the paper that she's coming for him before sending the paper swan back to him.
