The chapter ends with the judge asking Alice to pass judgement of herself. It ends with a cliffhanger: "I am..."

Chapter 9: Alice's Sin

Alice shared her story of being a rebellious child contrary to her sister, and met White Rabbit in the playground. White Rabbit told her stories similar to Alice in Wonderland, and they became good friends. Alice often gave White Rabbit food and learnt that White Rabbit had a stepmother who neglected her. White Rabbit always listened to Alice which made Alice feel superior and somewhat like her older sister. The teachers would ask Alice if she knew anything about White Rabbit, but Alice would always deny anything because she was also dependent on White Rabbit and did not want anyone to threaten this cross-dependent relationship.

In junior school, Alice meet Cheshire Cat and gravitated towards her instead of White Rabbit. Alice wanted to be as independent as Cheshire Cat. Also, Alice protected White Rabbit from bullies but was afraid when they bullied her too. Alice started to ignore White Rabbit to "save herself" from the bullies, and hung out with Cheshire Cat more.

One day, White Rabbit asked to meet Alice in the audio visual room. When Alice went, she saw the body of White Rabbit. Alice saw the note in the March Hare puppet saying, "To Alice forever after...". Alice blames herself for White Rabbit's death and rushes out to the library, apologising to Cheshire Cat repeatedly. Queen of Hearts and Mr Caterpillar found the body and investigation started though Alice was unable to help. Alice's loss of memory was a want to forget everything, that she played a part in White Rabbit's death and the creation of March Hare's character as a hallucination of her conscience.

The chapter ends with Red King in the trial room, revealing herself to be Alice. "Spiritual Judge was to punish my own sin. It is to atone my own mistake." For doing nothing, Alice was at fault for not supporting White Rabbit. As the judge places a judgment on Alice, she wakes up and have the resolve to reveal the truth to everyone. She then sees Cheshire Cat and they go to school together.
