"Young Man, where are you going with that ball?" asked a maid. She didn't notice that the ball was really you...but she was still stern with the boy, who started to try and make up excuses.

Making the swift decision that I might be better off with the maid than this strange boy, I call out to her. "Can you please help me? This boy is treating me very roughly. And I'm not his toy! He stole me from the room I was in!"

"Who said that" she said, her eyes darting around looking for the voice.

"Uh...down here...the ball."
I look mortified at being seen like this, especially since the bouncing has scuffed me up and made me kind of dirty.

"Oh My! You have a face!" she gasps.

The maid pulls me from the protesting boy's hands to get a better look at me. Not only does she get a better look at my face, she can see my palms and socked soles flattened on the surface of the ball. Those exposed parts feel normal (but flat), but the rest of my surface feels like a rubber ball, albeit one that's been rolled and bounced around quite a bit.
"Like I said, I was in one of the rooms, trying out this gizmo with Lord Prosperio, and when I got pressed into a ball, this kid came in and stole me! And he's been very rough with me!"

"Mr. Alabaster, I told you not to get into any trouble" she said admonishing the young boy.
"Grown Down adults are always so curious." she remarks.

"Grown down? You mean...he's an adult? Man, I don't think I'll ever get used to this place..."
I look up at the maid holding me in her hands, not that I have much of a choice. "I don't even know where I am now. He was rolling and bouncing me for a while before you found us. I must be filthy from all the rough treatment."

"Hmmm, you must have been in the shape room. Trouble is, no room in this mansion stays in the same place for very long. Well, Let's see if we can get you back." she said.

As the maid turns eo walk down the hallway, I say, "Er, I don't want to be a pain or anything, but if it's not too much trouble, could you clean me off first? I don't want to go back to normal covered in scuff marks."

She smiles and begins to wipe them off with a cloth she had on her outfit. "Hows this?"

I smile and blush very red as the maid cleans me off.
"Thanks a lot. I feel a lot better now. So I guess the next question is what happens to me now? Can I go back to the Shape Room? Or am I stuck as a ball?"

"Well, you aren't stuck. The only way that would happen would be if you rolled out the front door by accident. Anyone who leaves in a changed state stays that way, but if you are still inside the mansion, you can find your way back to normal" she smiled as she took you down the hall, trying to locate the Shape Room.

"Phew! I was worried for a while there...although I suppose that means I can't be changed again until you find the shape room?"

"Yes, that's true" she said with a chuckle. "Should be around here somewhere. Keep your eyes open"
