\chapter{Horrid Transformation}

A man lives in that abandoned house at the end of the street. He is
|
|
old and secret, nobody knows that he is in there. Those that do
|
|
know don't suspect it is a man, but maybe a dog or a cat living in
|
|
the house. There is strange foggy weather over that house. Tonight
|
|
thunder rumbles all around the house in the air.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The man sits at his counter and does not say a word. There is no
|
|
one to say it to. He is alone. Pain is in his staring eyes. Pain
|
|
from loneliness. Depressed pain. A bowl of eaten cereal is in front
|
|
of him. He is frowning, not satisfied. Some open bags of dog food
|
|
surround him, too.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Horrid thunder surrounds his house and then there is a flash of
|
|
lightning. The man has had enough! Enough of this civilization
|
|
where people shun him for his talent. They could never understand.
|
|
The man grins and puts on a collar. There is another flash of
|
|
lightning and by the end of the flash the man has changed into a
|
|
dog. He will do what he always does tonight like every night. He
|
|
will wander around until somebody takes pity on him and pets him
|
|
and feed him. As a homeless human society hates him, but as a dog
|
|
he is the greatest thing ever to them. Life is funny that way, he
|
|
silently thinks, walking out the door into the lightning.
