In seats were hundreds of men, women, and children watching us, just hoping to be able to buy one of us.

Mr. Hill walked onto the stage with a microphone in his hand. He gave the people an award winning smile and if I hadn't met him already and known what all he's done, then I would've thought he was a nice guy. I wonder if these people know what he's helped do to us or if they know and just don't care. "Welcome everyone to the Hybrid Auction House! Tonight, we have five more wonderful selections including an exotic hybrid. To start the auction we have a turtle hybrid. He's male, biologically sixteen..." I zoned out after that. I couldn't concentrate on anything else other than the crowd in front of me. I was terrified beyond belief and not just because I was now part dog and was about to be sold to some stranger as a pet. I'm stuck in a cage in a HUGE crowd. I never thought I'd say this but, I miss the lab.

I put my tail in between my legs and flattened my ears against my head, backing into a corner again in my cage. I never knew how much I'd like it it in here until now... Suddenly, a bright spotlight shined in my face and Mr. Hill's loud, booming voice filled my ears. "Finally we have a Black Labrador hybrid. She's female and biologically fifteen. She's just recently transformed so she'll definitely need to be trained. We'll start the bidding at $1,500." Immediately bids started flying through the air. "$5,000!" "$10,000!"

"$50,000!" Finally, all bids stopped when someone yelled, "$100,000!" It was a deep, male voice that sounded older than I was. "Going once, going twice, sold to number 105! Mr. Mitchell! Thank you all for coming, that's all we have for today. We hope to see you next month.", Mr. Hill ended, leaving the stage as an orderly picked up my cage and carried me behind him. He carried me to a room and put me down on the floor, exiting through another door. Not even five minutes later, a man walked in and stopped about a foot in front of me. Staring at me with his hands on his hips, he smirked in satisfaction.

He knelt down and said, "Hey there. You're coming home with me." Grabbing my cage, he carried me out of the room and down some halls to a big metal door. There was an intercom button on the side of the door and a camera in front of the door and above the intercom. He pressed the button and spoke, "Leaving the auction with a purchase. My name is Eli Mitchell." "Show me your ID, please.", the intercom's speaker rang out, causing Eli to hold up his driver's liscence and a badge. Buzzzz. "Enjoy your purchase, Mr. Mitchell."

Eli pushed open the heavy door and walked out of the building towards a pretty, blue car. It wasn't super fancy but it was still nice. He opened the backdoor and settled the cage down on the seat before slamming the door shut and getting in the car himself. We drove around for what seemed like hours until we finally arrived at a house. He got out of the car and grabbed my cage from the back before heading to the house. Once we entered he set down the cage and closed and locked the door before he finally knelt down and unlocked the cage door, allowing me to slowly crawl out. I had shifted back into my human form while we were driving here and it was really uncomfortable in that cage.

He had walked off to another part of the house so I was able to look around the room for a moment and maybe try to find a way out. A few minutes later, he walked in with what looked to be a collar in his hand. I backed up in panic at the sight as he knelt down in front of me. "Woah, calm down. I'm not gonna hurt you.", he cooed soothingly, trying to make me feel better and failing, "Now listen, I'm going to put this collar on you. I want you to cooperate and let me, ok?" "W-Wait a minute! Look, I don't know why I'm like this or who you are but you have to let me go! Please!", I pleaded, my voice hoarse and quiet from not being used in so long. Eli just stared at me for a moment before his face turned to a look of disappointment. He lowered his head slightly and shook his head with what appeared to shame, at not himself, but at me.

He glanced up at me and spoke, "Look..you're mine now. I OWN you. You can't leave and I won't let you go. So you can give up with the pleading. You're never leaving." He quickly put on the collar while I was distracted, "Enjoy your new life, pet."
