This choice: You climb down the desk to escape • Go Back... You decide that despite Mai's seemingly cheery exposition, you don't feel safe in her clutches. Especially if she's going to prolong the experiment on a whim. You look around the expanse of the desk, hoping for some sort of way out. You see that her phone is plugged intot he wall at the edge of the desk, with the cable reaching down into the wall below. You feel as though you could be strong enough to climb down, and looking around the room, there isn't really much else of an option for you. You throw caution to the wind and jump at the cable, grabbing on with both arms and your legs for good measure. You find it surprisingly easy to latch on, and slide down safely inch by inch. Luckily, the cord is a bit long, so you're able to ride it all the way down. And it shouldn't be much of a surprise that your body is so small and light, you don't budge the phone on the desk in the slightest. You collect your bearings and go straight for the door, taking in the sight of Mai's oversized bed and furniture as you pass by it. It's truly a remarkable sight, and if you weren't in such desperate need to escape, you'd really want to take it all in for a few more minutes. You make it to the door, thankful that Mai hasn't returned yet. You are in no condition to actually reach the doorknob, but luckily there is another way out. Dropping to your stomach, your body is just small enough to slide underneath the door with relative ease. You crawl on your hands and knees under the door, into the open world outside. You walk to the middle of the hallway taking note of your options. There is a staircase down the hall that you are in no position to climb down just yet. There are three rooms fairly close to each other. You suspect at least one of them must be occupied, but you hear noise coming from all of them. Mai's mother or sister may be behind one of them.
Your train of thought is interrupted by the sound of giant feet climbing the staircase. Not wanting to be caught, you run quickly to the nearest door and dive underneath it, crawling quickly not to be seen as the huge figure approaches. Taking a peak outside at the booming footsteps, you see Mai coming back into her room, a huge smile on her face, and underneath her arm she's holding a fairly large pink dollhouse. You also see in her other hand a small rubber piece of lining. It's a door blocker. She had been looking to trap you in her room with no means of escaping! Looks like you made the right decision. You quickly shuffle under the rest of the door, popping out the other side with relative ease. Brushing yourself off, you hear the blasting volume of of something in the distance, and that's when you see who's room this is:   indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
