birth again

3 woke up in a dark cramped place. He tried to move but there was no space for him to move. He began to sleep as he was never hungry. There was a tube from his stomach to somewhere else he could not see . Eventually a light showed up his entire body passed through that hole untill he was grabbed by someone and wrapped up and given to someone else. It was then that he realized "I'm a freaking baby!" 3 didn't know much because he was a slave but he knew this at least. As he could barely move his head he was faced toward his mother. She was a beautiful woman with brown eyes and black hair.She wasn't as well dressed as anyone else in the room but she was by far the best looking.After observing his mother he looked at what he thought was the father but then realized that there was no way that was the father because the man was so much better dressed than his mother. He was adorned with nice silks and jewels but underneath you could still see the man's muscular physique from underneath. "So this is my husband's bastard son hm?" a woman said as she walked into the room. She was inferior to his mother in terms of looks but she wore better clothes showing her high station. "he's not a bastard milady." his mother said seemingly angry that her mistress called her son a bastard. With a look of distain on her face the mistress looked at her husband and 3's supposed father. "If my husband could keep it in his pants then you would still be my favorite maid but no matter, the rule states that if he cannot shift by the time he turns 9 he will be put to death." she said icily as she walked out the room. 3's mother looked at him kindly and said "rest well my dear simon." 3 looked at his mother and thought to himself " simon huh guess I couldn't be a number now that I'm not a slave anymore huh." and he drifted to sleep. When simon awoke he was still in his mother's arms as she was moving around serving four people at a table. His father sat at the end of the table,with the ice woman at the side with two small children in the middle.One of the children a boy about five said "father why does maid alice keep her child while she serves us it's disrespectful." he asked. The father eating a peace of meat after chewing and swallowing said " it will not always be this way he will eat with us as soon as he's old enough." Drinking a sip from her glass his wife sneered and said with disgust "it's alright malcolm as soon as that thing has proved unable to shift he won't be a problem anymore." She smiled at the thought. Malcolm smiling at his father said "father I'm close to being able to shift so far not much just a scorpion tail and my ears change." Smiling at his son said "good looks like you inherited the family morph." After complimenting his son he looked at alice as she served malcolm another glass. In truth he hoped their son would be able to shift as well as it would help both in different ways.Over the next couple of months simon learned a great deal about this world. While most women in this country can use magic to some degree only a few men can use magic. Despite this men and a few women have the ability to shift. People who shift are called morphs with different levels. Simon learned that his father a knight of the thua family, was an advanced level morph that shifted into what was called a bone claw. It was a beast around two meters in height with the face of a vicious lizard creature that stood upright with long claws. People can have their own unique shift or they can inherit one from there parents. Simon so far is carried by his mother all day and then left in a cradle by night. This continued untill he could walk. When simon was able to walk he began to explore there home. Remembering that he needed to shift before he turned 9 made him scramble to find as much knowledge as he could. walking into the library he saw his sister Loraine digging into a book like she usually does in her spare time. Since simon could not yet speak he simply made some babyish sound that she did not acknowledge as she was entraced in the book she was reading. Ever since simon was born into this world he has been able to read and understand the language of this place . Seeing a book on the floor simon opened it . It was his brother Malcolm's book. looking inside he found that if you had the ability to you could shift if you hatched your morphs embryo using Mana. Then you could shift partially untill you have full control over your shift. Simon did not yet have enough control to sit down in with his legs crossed so he just sat with his legs out and tried to feel the Mana in the air. Reaching out with his mind he began to have this warm feeling all around him. Having this feeling he tried to draw it all into his conscience. Moving this energy around he saw a small orb in the corner of his mind and began to direct the Mana into it. The orb eagerly absorbed the Mana untill it the orb turned to a shade of light grey. He began to feel drained as he fell asleep in the room.
