A blonde child named Sana escapes on a rainy night from a research facility, aided by a mysterious benefactor who helps her and tells her to "go to a large city and make a commotion".

Ignoring her and driving off, they are attacked by two blue-haired twins, Asahi Hinagiri and Yonaga Hinagiri, who materialize objects dangling from chains as well as a bow and arrow respectively. After a chase across the streets and destroying Zouroku's car, Sana departs the car and the twins attempt to convince her to return to the research facility, going so far as to tying her up and shooting her, but is stopped by Zouroku. The three girls and him are taken to the police station to be interrogated, but halfway during Sana's interrogation she disappears after revealing the twins' names but not hers, and the twins are taken back to the research facility when the police is ordered to stop the investigation mysteriously. Zouroku is also released due to lack of evidence and is taken aback to find his car in its previous pristine condition, as well as the roads; security camera footage and videos recorded by passers-by have also all disappeared from the Internet. Deducing that this is Sana's doing, she appears to him again to request that he accept the deal and reveals her past of being experimented on due to her powerful abilities of being a 'Dream of Alice', a human with supernatural powers to create anything from imagination alone. While Zouroku decides not to get involved in this, he ultimately gives Sana lodging, clothes and food in return that she help with his work as a florist and not use her powers. | |||

Minnie C subdues him, and Sana agrees to go back to the research facility to ensure his safety, believing that she's a monster that doesn't deserve to live among humans.

Meanwhile, Sana and Hatori manage to find their way out of the chasm, but the doorway Sana used to lure Hatori into Wonderland has disappeared. Sana and Hatori then take shelter in a nearby mansion. Sana explains to Hatori that Wonderland has a mind of its own and is constantly experimenting to find out its own rules, and that it uses the Dreams of Alice as a way to see into the human world to learn from them. Hatori tells Sana about how she wants to stay in Wonderland due to her parents always fighting, as well as her fear that her own mother hates her to the point where she wishes she never existed.
