Get out of here now!

    by: NVR Author IconMail Icon
You consider the options and reason that if you might win more knowledge on who to avoid at the cost of losing your life, the obvious choice is getting the hell out of there

Erica is still distracted on her phone call as you safely crawl out of her door and into the uncomfortable rug of the hall once again, your legs complaining about the irritating feeling as you now decide to go back to your room and reach your cellphone that you left charging on your nightstand next to the bed. With your parents out, Erica wanting to get you "out of the picture" and Lauren not being reliable enough for your standards, you feel you have no other choice.

You finish the long trek to your room and notice the door wasn't completely closed, which means you don't have to crawl under it but also that anyone could barge into your room and find you if you aren't careful enough, fortunately is not something that your sisters do a lot except if they need anything from you. You sigh with a bit of annoyance but mostly relief at your familiar mess of clothes on the floor and feeling in a safe place take a bit of time to compare your size with the objects around the room and even climb a shoe just to give your legs a timeout from that poor quality rug.

Finally you reach the side of your nightstand, thinking of using the charging cord to climb it expecting it to easily handle your weight, given how the smartphone screen is like twice your size currently. Your hope is that the thing can actually recognize your commands, and your plan is to call your girlfriend, who you know you can trust. If that fails, you can at least try and search if there is something around making people shrink for no reason and how to fix it, or just remain in a safe spot on your room until you get a better idea.. or get hungry again.

Finding good footing to climb you concentrate on the task, the nightstand looking big enough to feel like a physical challenge but small enough to feel like something achievable. As expected, you don't feel any movement from above which means you can climb safely, and after 15 or so minutes you have finally managed to get there. You spent another couple of minutes catching your breath before moving to press the button to turn on the screen and drawing the pattern to unlock the phone, from your perspective is a bit more tedious to handle and the characters are hard to read but it is doable, and you finally have a safe way to reach out to the world at your size.

What happens next?
