It was never as they describe in the stories. Isekai, waking up in another world, magic ticket, whatever you call it but going down the rabbit hole and waking up in the body of a character from a story that you read is never, ever like they describe it.373Please respect copyright.PENANAktcz8JK2Ck
373Please respect copyright.PENANAzBAiLOKupg
That was my reaction as I woke up in the body of Ross Boiler, even the name screams TO BE IGNORED.373Please respect copyright.PENANAD3JQ27IRED
373Please respect copyright.PENANAlrecrHbpea
And immediately my first reaction was to go back to sleep and try to wake up, not to scream or be confused, for when you find yourself in a different world, a different body, you always assume it's a dream.373Please respect copyright.PENANALzS3H0ZskY
373Please respect copyright.PENANAylErp8nQA0
And this was a dream that refused to let me wake up.373Please respect copyright.PENANAcSS6Pqq3Em
373Please respect copyright.PENANAsiWHSo0MUs
So I decided to go outside and see just how deep the rabbit hole goes. I just hope that what's awaiting for me is Wonderland and not something worse.373Please respect copyright.PENANAEp2gVocvdY
373Please respect copyright.PENANAv2KaIviGlx
I can dream about it can't I?373Please respect copyright.PENANAl73vEBWdev

Prologue- Beats the moon upon my window373Please respect copyright.PENANAdLQZNh9xMt
373Please respect copyright.PENANAxMa3mntzS8
The wind blew through the hair of Ross Boiler, or rather of the body of Ross Boiler and the one who now occupied his body as the young boy had snuck out of his house and now wondered the woods outside.373Please respect copyright.PENANAXUHBf6BYiQ
373Please respect copyright.PENANA1XozXelVab
To the one that was now Ross he wandered through the dark ground and woods in order to fully grasp his new state. Having remembered that in a previous life he had read many stories with a similar subject Ross was confident that this was just a dream, born of flight of fancy.373Please respect copyright.PENANA1FKl3Gj2b9
373Please respect copyright.PENANAZ88kqUwHaQ
So he went without fear into the deep, dark woods. Woods that where unnaturally easy to traverse than the real ones that he spend his childhood in, a first clue that this was not like the real world.373Please respect copyright.PENANAAipONtqkUw
373Please respect copyright.PENANAFrZzRzqCH4
And the same could have been said by when he encountered a gathering of banshees in the woods. Fearsome corpse like apparitions of women who were mistreated and they all looked at him and started to circle and spread their dark arts around him.373Please respect copyright.PENANAyfIr7nyPnw
373Please respect copyright.PENANAXu8DQvAWyQ
Banshees could not truly kill their victim, no, they had to have their victim give into their hypnotic songs and arts. And Ross just walked through them, their songs had no effect as he treated them as one would treat the Boogeyman.373Please respect copyright.PENANAmVbrSSgLAS
373Please respect copyright.PENANAasaKCDIgfP
An apparition that only exist in one's imagination. The stunned banshee's followed this unnatural boy as he had seemingly defied magic itself as he went deeper and deeper into the woods.373Please respect copyright.PENANA9neiJBXQb6
373Please respect copyright.PENANAAMoVOt8Wzj
Past gatherings of undead that starred at him in surprise as he looked at decay on two legs with a passing curiosity. Ross walked deeper and deeper without fear or concern.373Please respect copyright.PENANAqdQlqfxNHA
373Please respect copyright.PENANAQOk2OybF4L
Why should he be concern about something that only exists in his head?373Please respect copyright.PENANAIPCd5cXfGJ
373Please respect copyright.PENANAnhPXvzf1Tp
Then he stumbled onto something.373Please respect copyright.PENANA9obk43DjbJ
373Please respect copyright.PENANA7EHqCb10Wr
He had tripped and hit his knee and the pain made his blood run cold. For he had never sensed pain in a dream before and he realized that he was now alone in a dark unnatural wood, filled with terrors of a dark nature, and bereft of the ignorance that acted as a shield against the dark creatures.373Please respect copyright.PENANAy4K25a6yv4
373Please respect copyright.PENANATJIyx7YpOZ
"Stay calm....stay calm." Ross said to himself, for despite being in the body of a boy he remembered how the key point in all the stories that keeping a cool head was always the best solution.373Please respect copyright.PENANAWEo8J1f6wS
373Please respect copyright.PENANAheRczpVKVl
Ross reached into his pocked in order to see what meager supplies he had with him in order to make his current situation more bearable.373Please respect copyright.PENANALsQvyK0BRc
373Please respect copyright.PENANAntkbWyRlS3
All he could find was some candy.373Please respect copyright.PENANATp4lE4Y3co
373Please respect copyright.PENANAKD7dGFhsbZ
He took one to calm his nerves and after about half an hour he was now more calm.373Please respect copyright.PENANAuHCm5Q60u6
373Please respect copyright.PENANAcgtL7GLdv1
Deciding that the logical thing to do was to just go back and pretend that he was the same before this revelation and he turned and followed his own path back through the woods. Back through the lairs of banshee's and undead, only this time they seemed to be different in appearance than before.373Please respect copyright.PENANACCEEeEUWd0
373Please respect copyright.PENANAnYHtCIWX8x
The songs of the banshees and the presence of the undead affected him in a different way as now he knew that things where far different than the first time he viewed this world, that how he perceived them to be.373Please respect copyright.PENANAbymCDxV8Dj
373Please respect copyright.PENANAmU8UORtA07
As soon as he got back to his house and room he laid locked his window and room door and quickly lit up every light in the room, now terrified of the dark. Of what creatures it may hide.373Please respect copyright.PENANA68V3K8vmHv
373Please respect copyright.PENANANwJeXw5DgX
And as the light flooded the room, revealing all so too did it reveal what his candy was.373Please respect copyright.PENANAWGzObFl7iI
373Please respect copyright.PENANAXtNo26QfW0
It was anti-psychotic medication.373Please respect copyright.PENANAzdVDKOlcun
373Please respect copyright.PENANAMjotPpHvep
Once more he was uncertain and confused.373Please respect copyright.PENANArd0bwsuGfi
373Please respect copyright.PENANAUIaIA0TP9G
Was this world real and not a dream? Or was it real and all that he just experienced nothing more than delusions? Was his memory of a previous life nothing but the products of a sick mind?373Please respect copyright.PENANAOAzFOGjzrB
373Please respect copyright.PENANA2YRWsxABRu
Or was this just part of this new world?373Please respect copyright.PENANAF5lLNV95aD
373Please respect copyright.PENANApnAqAAMq0x
What if the body that he currently inhabited's sickness was what enabled him to leap from his previous world.373Please respect copyright.PENANAPvEuCFZlfc
373Please respect copyright.PENANApnn0tZFCtI
Ross did not know.373Please respect copyright.PENANAU8lX0eKtXH
373Please respect copyright.PENANAeDeVwMjUzW
All he did know....he knew nothing! He could not remember his previous world, his previous life, not even his own previous name. He was aware of them, but at the same time they were like echoes of past memories, shapes and shadows in the darkness.373Please respect copyright.PENANAsgNMwbd5RP
373Please respect copyright.PENANAX31aour0hv
And he realized something else.373Please respect copyright.PENANAf2V0d5eeSY
373Please respect copyright.PENANAsOHJT6dIYT
"This.....this is a flashback." Ross said to himself as he blinked and found himself in the daytime, with an older body as he realized that what he just lived through was a memory.373Please respect copyright.PENANA2EOIHMHjWm
373Please respect copyright.PENANAKGbNkoQlCK
A memory triggered by the sight of him finding himself in front of a fearsome demon in the woods again.373Please respect copyright.PENANA8ogO1hkafn
373Please respect copyright.PENANA0YGmQpyxjm
This was a moment that was common in all the old stories. The ordinary boy either died or froze and he was captured and use to give the protagonist a new story. And any san man would freeze and become useless in such a scenario.373Please respect copyright.PENANAiTFS53UXLi
373Please respect copyright.PENANASVj9C8hE4S
"Good thing I'm crazy." Ross said as he remembered past echoes of a past life and noticed that the demon was four legged.373Please respect copyright.PENANAuSQeJyuzGL
373Please respect copyright.PENANA0xQT9w84qN
An animal.373Please respect copyright.PENANA89MZDZqkKM
373Please respect copyright.PENANAEt2Jt4OnpX
Immediately the echoes reminded him of wolves and bears and so Ross did not run or attack, he simply kept facing the demon like beast and lowly backed away.373Please respect copyright.PENANAloAvQTOAY8
373Please respect copyright.PENANAtHCFxSGeNW
With each step the snarling demon calmed down and when enough distance was between the two of them then the demonic beast turned and left.373Please respect copyright.PENANAOQHd3l52NJ
373Please respect copyright.PENANA7IdzNqTRx5
Ross relaxed and thought the worst to be over, only to be tackled hard by something unknown.373Please respect copyright.PENANAFIewM2pvWd
373Please respect copyright.PENANAhB1wO3h7iP
"ROSS! Are you okay?" The voice of a petite girl said to him, the voice that belonged to the one that leaped at him for a hug.373Please respect copyright.PENANAep2717cNyr
373Please respect copyright.PENANAWEOmdcCon9
Memories flooded him this time, not just mere echoes, but of this girl. Hexen a childhood friend, one that was painfully obvious by her clothes, he eyes, her hair, by the way that she had suddenly appeared next to him and there was not visible trail of footsteps for her, while Ross had a noticeable trail that this was the magical protagonist of this story.373Please respect copyright.PENANAlVDY4GCZLI
373Please respect copyright.PENANAnkmt3GrmW0
A witch?373Please respect copyright.PENANAAMol3m3wN9
373Please respect copyright.PENANA33JsVpKQHC
An elf?373Please respect copyright.PENANAMRquWljtlr
373Please respect copyright.PENANAUOGMn7WxX7
A demon?373Please respect copyright.PENANAjfcN01bKpy
373Please respect copyright.PENANA3CO1Ot4urM
An angel?373Please respect copyright.PENANA7SwrW04je7
373Please respect copyright.PENANAWZxiSBLaTU
A fairy?373Please respect copyright.PENANAm72SJuI6QO
373Please respect copyright.PENANApKNgjHu8fY
Ross did not know, all he knew was that someone had come to his aide and was hugging him and after facing a beats in the woods, Ross needed a hug.373Please respect copyright.PENANAJriOTSglla
373Please respect copyright.PENANAps2x6bDce1
"I'm fine, just stumbled onto a big wolf." Ross said.373Please respect copyright.PENANAiZLgtSYix3
373Please respect copyright.PENANAScSc4NNIWk
"A wolf? You sure it was a wolf?" Ross heard Hexen said and he felt a chill down his spine as a strange sensation was felt behind him, probably magic.373Please respect copyright.PENANA9IxGpZo5bn
373Please respect copyright.PENANAEktFAxfFZ4
A spell then. To do what? Erase his memory? Hopefully. Do worse? Hopefully not.373Please respect copyright.PENANA1JXoU9Ve2t
373Please respect copyright.PENANAqpDi8A31jw
"Yeah, a big wolf. They're more common than you think H." Ross lied through his teeth and that seemed to work as the spell disappeared and Hexen broke the hug and gave him a cheerful smile that could make a soldier weep.373Please respect copyright.PENANAn0cm4ktbO2
373Please respect copyright.PENANA58pXN5WcYL
"I'm so happy that you're okay. But don't wander around here alone. Don't get into trouble Ross....Don't." Hexen said with what could either be anger born of concern or...or of something else.373Please respect copyright.PENANAx6zaUHKNoJ
373Please respect copyright.PENANAzG5u4wWyED
Either way Ross decided there and then to do 3 things.373Please respect copyright.PENANAioVG4v9RSU
373Please respect copyright.PENANAAlH2ptQFz7
1. Get strong.373Please respect copyright.PENANA1N85n9r4mF
373Please respect copyright.PENANA5fWYEWySsx
2. Be prepared.373Please respect copyright.PENANAMgY5QJ8Aiz
373Please respect copyright.PENANAlsFn5zKjTV
3....Never.....ever....make an enemy out of Hexen.373Please respect copyright.PENANAfsvZifWSjy
373Please respect copyright.PENANAuZ1lpAU8RH
"Wouldn't dream of it." Ross said as Hexen then cheerfully embraced his left hand in hers and escorted him out of the woods.373Please respect copyright.PENANAmywBxmkzkx
373Please respect copyright.PENANAB0UPBYzHR7
"Wouldn't dream of it." Ross repeated quietly as he reached for his pocket and gripped the pill bottle there.373Please respect copyright.PENANAfjsQB9eOGe
373Please respect copyright.PENANAvDwVwpjKRh
Just another day Wonderland. He thought.373Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8w5dxP2z3
