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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAmieyybScT5
374Please respect copyright.PENANA4uISTcNQWc
That was my reaction as I woke up in the body of Ross Boiler, even the name screams TO BE IGNORED.374Please respect copyright.PENANA4cTbyJk6cB
374Please respect copyright.PENANAadM9M6Xjef
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAoS0r9oUavz
374Please respect copyright.PENANAgrabSJ0Bg1
And this was a dream that refused to let me wake up.374Please respect copyright.PENANA2QpJxELfxV
374Please respect copyright.PENANA6uU6Gyi9tM
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANArKJF3gUeXd
374Please respect copyright.PENANAdU8P22XFIT
I can dream about it can't I?374Please respect copyright.PENANAqWJzDJJGdh

Prologue- Beats the moon upon my window374Please respect copyright.PENANAVw8O708hl7
374Please respect copyright.PENANAv5OTiGHw4j
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANACQBfDlNyxI
374Please respect copyright.PENANAVOoCE09Trq
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAZn1ESRAeJe
374Please respect copyright.PENANAcCG2ezN6Y7
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAIguaJum15p
374Please respect copyright.PENANAkF58pTpy5g
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANA6bKWy6olZF
374Please respect copyright.PENANAZtuFAi9smm
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAvA1jzWA8LM
374Please respect copyright.PENANA9UWxw6pkEy
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAYlJWSpleQn
374Please respect copyright.PENANAKPTiXn62PQ
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAKMKTyxKQSh
374Please respect copyright.PENANAlyJvxutFzo
Why should he be concern about something that only exists in his head?374Please respect copyright.PENANA52HMyyG7DE
374Please respect copyright.PENANA3sBabdBnG6
Then he stumbled onto something.374Please respect copyright.PENANAKNv0Ed0umX
374Please respect copyright.PENANAFrqI2Ryz7M
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANA2ia104HJat
374Please respect copyright.PENANAe8wg3Wf8GD
"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.374Please respect copyright.PENANASnlTjgHHQS
374Please respect copyright.PENANAQM44cagX26
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANARF9ChV3gW2
374Please respect copyright.PENANAdzzCqbU7LX
All he could find was some candy.374Please respect copyright.PENANAaJOMiGMUaa
374Please respect copyright.PENANA81d3r1ZZCB
He took one to calm his nerves and after about half an hour he was now more calm.374Please respect copyright.PENANALpTKbsyOMX
374Please respect copyright.PENANAbY3M3TJDww
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAT2wkJEV3y1
374Please respect copyright.PENANA58pIrlne3R
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANATlMhuU10cD
374Please respect copyright.PENANAE4iy0biNSK
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAcFzltDidfh
374Please respect copyright.PENANAcjXk9r5Odm
And as the light flooded the room, revealing all so too did it reveal what his candy was.374Please respect copyright.PENANALwEl4m1BzU
374Please respect copyright.PENANAD38mXAWmpL
It was anti-psychotic medication.374Please respect copyright.PENANAcyizoBY21c
374Please respect copyright.PENANAinBw9Em092
Once more he was uncertain and confused.374Please respect copyright.PENANAadimbjqnmw
374Please respect copyright.PENANAYbv1HMjSSB
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?374Please respect copyright.PENANAH84exZFtSj
374Please respect copyright.PENANAgeAHZLgQ2C
Or was this just part of this new world?374Please respect copyright.PENANAAQVGOwzClo
374Please respect copyright.PENANA2ASa5FeSj0
What if the body that he currently inhabited's sickness was what enabled him to leap from his previous world.374Please respect copyright.PENANAFOWTUEaiSB
374Please respect copyright.PENANAGhaFGdVkQ6
Ross did not know.374Please respect copyright.PENANAROI86XL3ZN
374Please respect copyright.PENANAkQJ3phOE9Y
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAcOu5c7iSjN
374Please respect copyright.PENANAVQ5zwbPwa7
And he realized something else.374Please respect copyright.PENANA8arXeLTQhA
374Please respect copyright.PENANAFwgy5Ro1mT
"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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAt910bIPl8G
374Please respect copyright.PENANAjebXqPWYE5
A memory triggered by the sight of him finding himself in front of a fearsome demon in the woods again.374Please respect copyright.PENANAUSX2wRvxbW
374Please respect copyright.PENANAKlujkgCLnf
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAdcZN7LBM5m
374Please respect copyright.PENANAu0t5qoQfqL
"Good thing I'm crazy." Ross said as he remembered past echoes of a past life and noticed that the demon was four legged.374Please respect copyright.PENANAAFWk9aZrSN
374Please respect copyright.PENANArcmn2sC6le
An animal.374Please respect copyright.PENANARhSQj8zqDq
374Please respect copyright.PENANAY9VmbvXY4x
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAjfnSA4wRMg
374Please respect copyright.PENANAy1XrEzzk4S
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAuxhVNkncp8
374Please respect copyright.PENANAGGus4kJ8YZ
Ross relaxed and thought the worst to be over, only to be tackled hard by something unknown.374Please respect copyright.PENANA8AHIRe8lqU
374Please respect copyright.PENANARA1XtvGUjT
"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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAgSY1dUTJSz
374Please respect copyright.PENANA1szdB6IXeD
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAqOn1yjqeLi
374Please respect copyright.PENANAYosjXl5h5w
A witch?374Please respect copyright.PENANAtQ5wqK9Yhd
374Please respect copyright.PENANAX3fA9rZZVr
An elf?374Please respect copyright.PENANAIgl8yoj94e
374Please respect copyright.PENANAQYfXbmiRMj
A demon?374Please respect copyright.PENANAE4NjxeKiJO
374Please respect copyright.PENANAzPPVkQsnE1
An angel?374Please respect copyright.PENANAvNM6N37c10
374Please respect copyright.PENANAqSE5aInlhN
A fairy?374Please respect copyright.PENANAkuK8CfI2so
374Please respect copyright.PENANAhs6QKsJFHO
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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAirruXxbQ8S
374Please respect copyright.PENANAmngj6ranEz
"I'm fine, just stumbled onto a big wolf." Ross said.374Please respect copyright.PENANAymxRhUFmNI
374Please respect copyright.PENANA7BA9rCxboq
"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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAgp80LOTi23
374Please respect copyright.PENANAwhGOm1x6Gl
A spell then. To do what? Erase his memory? Hopefully. Do worse? Hopefully not.374Please respect copyright.PENANApE9xJquFgT
374Please respect copyright.PENANAcgbp1xSgqt
"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.374Please respect copyright.PENANAe0Z369aepz
374Please respect copyright.PENANAcnombV1vTy
"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.374Please respect copyright.PENANATqTSOBpJok
374Please respect copyright.PENANALhYJLFMXV2
Either way Ross decided there and then to do 3 things.374Please respect copyright.PENANAA8s6npUW3M
374Please respect copyright.PENANAGingwWw1zU
1. Get strong.374Please respect copyright.PENANAiBHSyqDiD0
374Please respect copyright.PENANAsIFioUiNFJ
2. Be prepared.374Please respect copyright.PENANASJZcLxOCjC
374Please respect copyright.PENANAkLIj9TWtzq
3....Never.....ever....make an enemy out of Hexen.374Please respect copyright.PENANAriEw68KBGU
374Please respect copyright.PENANA5A6OXNmlmj
"Wouldn't dream of it." Ross said as Hexen then cheerfully embraced his left hand in hers and escorted him out of the woods.374Please respect copyright.PENANAUZrDBYRrgq
374Please respect copyright.PENANArEhzuzJvC1
"Wouldn't dream of it." Ross repeated quietly as he reached for his pocket and gripped the pill bottle there.374Please respect copyright.PENANACuVt7jbHy6
374Please respect copyright.PENANAnXcjwshkRP
Just another day Wonderland. He thought.374Please respect copyright.PENANAWjiNsMo1eX
