I struggled and fought against the ropes. Screaming out hoarsely, the world a loud mess, tears streaming down my face. I shouted and struggled, watching them pin my parents.

I froze and fell silent, the blood pooling out of their bodies into the dirt, in the middle of our little camp.

"But... We... Weren't in anyone's territory" I whimpered, crying out as I was yanked, sending me crashing down, my eyes on their bodies. "We didn't do anything wrong" I wailed out, my body being dragged on the dirt. They didn't respond, casually walking, looking at each other, unaffected by the horrible thing they've done. I couldn't move, my breathing heavy, the image of them... Dead in pools of their own blood. I was tossed into a large sack, my world bouncing and swaying, making me feel more sick than I already did.

"Clean it up and get it trained" ordered a heavy voice. I was dumped from the sack, stripped and thrown into water, I flailed and gripped the edge, and rough hands attacked my body. I wanted to just curl up into myself in the cold water, but they pulled me apart with ease.

I was dumped onto something soft, my world crumbling. I just fell limp as I was shoved about. Dried and something clasped around my neck, it was firm and cold on my skin. A brown dress put on me, it had a few flowers on it.

"Sit down" ordered a hard voice, I didn't respond, looking around in confusion, I yelped at a strong jolt at my neck. "Sit down!" They repeated, louder, and slowly I sat. "Good. Now stand" they ordered, I stumbled to my feet. Looking around again, yelping at another shock.

"Do not move unless told to!" Snapped the voice. I whimpered.

"Pleas..." I began, crying out at another painful shock. "What's going on" I wailed, flinching at another shock.

It felt like hours as it continued, the voice wouldn't let me move, speak or fidget without telling me to. All they asked was for me to sit, stand and lie down. I collapsed from exhaustion, crying heavily, they gave me a last dissatisfied shock, before leaving me there. I woke sore and thirsty, slowly looking around, I was in a dark room, and the floor seemed to be sand. I groaned as I sat up, tension around my neck making me cringe. I tried to pull it off or find a way to remove it, whimpering softly as it didn't budge.

I heard something move and before I could turn, I screamed out at a strong shock.

"Do not remove the collar!" Snapped the voice. I could hear them moving.

I watched two bowls be set down, one filled with water, I tried to dive into it in my thirst, screaming out again at another shock.

"You will wait until I say to eat or drink. The more expensive pets are simply to be looked at, visitors cannot see one eating, drinking or going toilet" snapped the voice. I cringed and sat still. "Eat and drink" he ordered. I did, relieved to have something, anything, fill me. For days this training continued, any disobedience was treated with a shock. I learnt quickly to just follow the rules. Even forcing me to dress quickly, into new clothes, to slow I get shocked, to fast at risk to damage the clothes, I get shocked...

I tried taking my chance, sneaking to the doorway, it opened easily, I entered a stone hallway, trying to quietly run down, freezing in place as they stood before me, anger on their face as they caught me, forcing me to undress inside of a small square room, chained to a wall. My back to them. I shivered and tried to plead.

"Please..." I wailed, receiving a strong shock. Something painful whipped against my back, making me screech.

"Escape attempts are met with severe punishment!" Snapped the voice. I wailed and tried to beg for forgiveness, but that just earned me more shocks, until I was quietly sobbing, taking the painful whipping, blood dripping down my back. They finally stopped, tossing water at me, making my back sting, I yelped and cringed, being left alone in the room. Unsure how much time was passing, my pee on the floor and hunger pangs hurt my stomach, my mouth feeling so dry.
