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.179Please respect copyright.PENANA8Hxf4LXQAY
179Please respect copyright.PENANAipPsBfZXNp
That was my reaction as I woke up in the body of Ross Boiler, even the name screams TO BE IGNORED.179Please respect copyright.PENANAdX0x2a84WQ
179Please respect copyright.PENANAXPbNe7KZG2
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAjgvvqNUmYu
179Please respect copyright.PENANAE5Y3rZGCqT
And this was a dream that refused to let me wake up.179Please respect copyright.PENANAP0Cv4o3JoG
179Please respect copyright.PENANAPtCmO0YxC4
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAwDdlF2YMwP
179Please respect copyright.PENANAz8V5PXQ0Tu
I can dream about it can't I?179Please respect copyright.PENANAK5LtOPVdmx

Prologue- Beats the moon upon my window179Please respect copyright.PENANAjECZswyu65
179Please respect copyright.PENANAaUmV0Jzhgd
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAK8HaOfFISa
179Please respect copyright.PENANAfciQCXQBlX
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAKParIV1uiV
179Please respect copyright.PENANAyd8zvKciXu
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANA7Zg3lpvdh7
179Please respect copyright.PENANAJGKPP223Ss
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAw0ojNFkJup
179Please respect copyright.PENANA1HKL6LE0nr
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAgyvI6vOFdG
179Please respect copyright.PENANA2fpJP0r5Qy
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANALb067nPllO
179Please respect copyright.PENANA0oeMEZoOPP
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAWy6AclXYpm
179Please respect copyright.PENANAnr1rETXZyG
Why should he be concern about something that only exists in his head?179Please respect copyright.PENANA1xDBnaxcE0
179Please respect copyright.PENANA6uIQHwM8tr
Then he stumbled onto something.179Please respect copyright.PENANAaOp0wNeBZ5
179Please respect copyright.PENANAzqh9SLf3J9
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAWNplvlWCym
179Please respect copyright.PENANA80WWqLpep0
"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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAgqbUDxnSul
179Please respect copyright.PENANA9bNL1JiZhS
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANA4yOprv9TnA
179Please respect copyright.PENANAiiOAvFpkcS
All he could find was some candy.179Please respect copyright.PENANAvp704Cvtns
179Please respect copyright.PENANAYqioyG1zQt
He took one to calm his nerves and after about half an hour he was now more calm.179Please respect copyright.PENANAklwxoTmlRv
179Please respect copyright.PENANAMDI5mFN0Lx
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAj2D3Yffewb
179Please respect copyright.PENANAxVY20oRgdv
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAJcxqWzGzFd
179Please respect copyright.PENANAjicvNYrJwM
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAFQiIrvGd0B
179Please respect copyright.PENANAyZxIORVj2r
And as the light flooded the room, revealing all so too did it reveal what his candy was.179Please respect copyright.PENANA1IxSncEwcV
179Please respect copyright.PENANAjVMFMhKvrJ
It was anti-psychotic medication.179Please respect copyright.PENANAz2kwB5X9xZ
179Please respect copyright.PENANA2VrqmKgBS9
Once more he was uncertain and confused.179Please respect copyright.PENANAjCSiO1ilRt
179Please respect copyright.PENANAAYMLkWWpnP
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?179Please respect copyright.PENANAu9g6G9PHwa
179Please respect copyright.PENANALMlrAm2nca
Or was this just part of this new world?179Please respect copyright.PENANAY8tdjyI5fj
179Please respect copyright.PENANAukLDag67dP
What if the body that he currently inhabited's sickness was what enabled him to leap from his previous world.179Please respect copyright.PENANACOwXfzvAtD
179Please respect copyright.PENANAJTCeB0pWIq
Ross did not know.179Please respect copyright.PENANA1RRgf9g2I2
179Please respect copyright.PENANACrM0xV6S14
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAlQ5kWiY2MH
179Please respect copyright.PENANAeaL2GXQrKr
And he realized something else.179Please respect copyright.PENANAVoXQVAmFJa
179Please respect copyright.PENANAhgjgaDpHYy
"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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAK78q2GertN
179Please respect copyright.PENANAh48nprAH4n
A memory triggered by the sight of him finding himself in front of a fearsome demon in the woods again.179Please respect copyright.PENANAtaNaXwtlPk
179Please respect copyright.PENANA3K0ygNSTZw
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAJwT8RR9Ao0
179Please respect copyright.PENANAk0oFnIP0ri
"Good thing I'm crazy." Ross said as he remembered past echoes of a past life and noticed that the demon was four legged.179Please respect copyright.PENANA7ssVQUtO7H
179Please respect copyright.PENANATIp3VcgC3f
An animal.179Please respect copyright.PENANAUBB3cUgMep
179Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9IcAvw62L
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAhfyqm8upc0
179Please respect copyright.PENANANauCECsUPC
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAkg2xOzEF2x
179Please respect copyright.PENANAWNVTQlNo9g
Ross relaxed and thought the worst to be over, only to be tackled hard by something unknown.179Please respect copyright.PENANArhR82QqQUh
179Please respect copyright.PENANAIikjA6Lzkk
"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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAtgMxU4qc4W
179Please respect copyright.PENANARG8B9Tv1Cb
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAoFvW9Y1lBY
179Please respect copyright.PENANA08EPKgMsgT
A witch?179Please respect copyright.PENANAHNrVpCkJYZ
179Please respect copyright.PENANA2Nst12rQpe
An elf?179Please respect copyright.PENANAjDZCpexNQs
179Please respect copyright.PENANAFX0P8BfGjg
A demon?179Please respect copyright.PENANAgFR2QdqaYL
179Please respect copyright.PENANAxMsN1kL85F
An angel?179Please respect copyright.PENANA8qxwoeLhFE
179Please respect copyright.PENANApFB0mFiLHH
A fairy?179Please respect copyright.PENANA9CwitMvWlV
179Please respect copyright.PENANA34GbZMDH9c
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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAaD76gOCSLe
179Please respect copyright.PENANAVTpm8ArEJR
"I'm fine, just stumbled onto a big wolf." Ross said.179Please respect copyright.PENANAQVrvqQZmMp
179Please respect copyright.PENANAegzHtQWzTF
"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.179Please respect copyright.PENANA5h7zRFmr5g
179Please respect copyright.PENANAo5rp9vw923
A spell then. To do what? Erase his memory? Hopefully. Do worse? Hopefully not.179Please respect copyright.PENANAuNKUeqbunN
179Please respect copyright.PENANAzAEYtdxbGS
"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.179Please respect copyright.PENANADiarXgzxEW
179Please respect copyright.PENANAA4WUTJmkH2
"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.179Please respect copyright.PENANAMNr8xFJ63Z
179Please respect copyright.PENANAGtefDi4CGi
Either way Ross decided there and then to do 3 things.179Please respect copyright.PENANAFg9Of1wOJO
179Please respect copyright.PENANAiD5KW1OIcb
1. Get strong.179Please respect copyright.PENANA27YJMLlDil
179Please respect copyright.PENANATpx73qVL7o
2. Be prepared.179Please respect copyright.PENANABMe5aAcbF6
179Please respect copyright.PENANAjpn5ILJenk
3....Never.....ever....make an enemy out of Hexen.179Please respect copyright.PENANAfb4dLJrPLP
179Please respect copyright.PENANAHDpR5HDf8A
"Wouldn't dream of it." Ross said as Hexen then cheerfully embraced his left hand in hers and escorted him out of the woods.179Please respect copyright.PENANAmvlYuBK5P5
179Please respect copyright.PENANA5hLoJB4kxt
"Wouldn't dream of it." Ross repeated quietly as he reached for his pocket and gripped the pill bottle there.179Please respect copyright.PENANAQJdWcblMiE
179Please respect copyright.PENANAG0AJQKWX3q
Just another day Wonderland. He thought.179Please respect copyright.PENANAXPQ7uKsY5O
