Chapter 4 - The Escape

Chapter 4 - The Escape

The same day in the shadows of the night a fully alert Michael woke from his realistic sleeping facade. Quietly he hopped out of his cot and walked over to a chest near the cot where various clothes were. 

"These won't do! I need more cloth.", Michael impatiently whispered to himself as he realised the lid to the chest.

Currently Michael was reenacting the escape plan that he had thought out oh so carefully the past week he was here. If everything went as planned he would be long gone before his 'family' even noticed his little disappearing act.

Quietly Michael tip toed along the floor trying his hardest not to make any noise. Truth be told, he needn't be so careful about noise as he could just mask the sound with a quick and simple wind spell to remove the air around his feet.

(To stop vibrations in the air. Which is sound... I really don't like this sciency mumbo jumbo but I think this will work.)

But unfortunately Michael needed his meager amounts of mana for a grander spell later on in the plan.

As Michael reached the edge of the door to his room he slowly opened it a small sliver in order to check of the coast was clear. Which it was... So using the strength of a ten year old in his weak baby body, Michael easily opened the door just enough for himself to slip through and proceeded to sneak down the corridor.

The corridor was a whole ten meters long with a few door on the sides leading to various other rooms and a large front door at the end. If Michael's plan had perfectly worked out then there would have been a nice pile of laundry just in front of the front door to be hung up outside the next day. Alas there wasn't and it seemed Michael's plan was going to get a whole lot more complicated.

Michael needed to steal some clothes out of either one of his sister's rooms or his parents. Not wanting to wear worn female teenage Orc clothes in this period of his new life, he opted for the more difficult option of sneaking into his parent's room.

Creeping up to the door in question and slowly prying it open, Michawl managed to see inside.

'Well fuck subtlety.', Michael shouted in his head as he just up and walked in ton the room and over to the set of drawers where he knew his parents kept their clothes.

Michael clambered up and started opening drawers.

Not knowing what would happen in the next part of his plan, Michael grabbed a bit of everything before tying it into a ball and dragging it across the room and into the hall.

'Well that turned out alright.',

The pudgy Orc baby thought as he released a breath of air he didn't know he had held.

Slowly, Michael dragged the clothes to the front door and then to the outside of the house, after spending the best part of an hour trying to open the tall front door without magic.

After another hour of covertly making his way to the exit of the village whilst avoiding anyone or any light, Michael  was finally free.

"Okay, now for phase two.", Michael said out loud now that he knew he was out of earshot of anyone in the village.

"Right then. How does this 'all knowing' thingy work?", and as soon as Michael had finished asking the question he already knew the answer.

"Oh well I guess that's one question solved. Then, does body modification work the same as my old world?",

"...",

"Oh it does.", Michael said rarther depressingly.

"Never mind I always knew it was a possibility when I thought of this plan when I had thought it up in the first place.",

"Map?",

Surprisingly in Michaels field of view a small map type thing appeared in a box and it seemed that if he focused on it would grow larger.

After comparing his map to his surroundings he quickly figured out the scale and positioning of the map.

Michael then set of to find an area in order to cast his very first spell and summoning since coming to this world!

...

Yay!
