The image of Max pulling the trigger on me made me jump and with that a wave of pain traveled my entire body, my mouth so dry it's driving me insane but a gentle touch helped me calm a little.

"Calm down sweaty everything is all right, now drink some water." I feel a glass and the water is just what I needed.

"Thank you so much I... I really needed that." I tried opening my eyes but something was covering them. "What's on my face?" I asked curiously.

"Well, I was trying to clean you up but you woke up and scared me." She said worried.

When my hands rose to my face it didn't felt right, as I took the towel off, my eyes adjusted to the room light just to see my arms extremely hairy, a small gasp leaves me but before I start to panic, next to me I see who was talking to me, was a woman like camel the sight of her makes me jump out of the bed and into the ground.

"Y... y... you are a camel" I said while standing, my body shaking from pain and fear.

"Sweaty try to take a deep breath, try to calm down." she said while she moved her hoof's up and down slowly.

I did as told and after a moment I was somewhat better, I looked up and said. "where is a mirror I need to look at myself"

she pointed at a small table a couple of steps next to the bed, as I approached it my body cried in pain but I didn't cared anymore, when I got in front of the mirror my eyes widen in disbelieve as I examined every detail of my new face, the memories of max putting those two bullets in my chest and all came back to me and made me think, maybe just maybe I did die but how did this happen is this really real or a pretty long dead dream, at the end of that thought the only thing that went through my mind was (Well, here goes nothing) my hand rose up high and then fast down right in the cheek sending me fast to the ground.

"Ok that hurt like hell... this is real." I said in whispers as she came close to me and helped me up.

"What was that all about." she said with a worried face.

"JAJAJAJAJAJA, HO MY GOD this is real, THIS... IS... REAL, and I am starting to get dizzy." I said as I stumble and fall again this time the camel helped me to get to the bed.

"You are still very weak, you better rest I will come and check on you every now and then." she said as she helped me into the bed.

"What is your name." I said as my body started to give in to the tiredness and fatigue.

She looked at me softly and told me "My name is Martha, now rest."

When she left the room I felt in peace for some reason, even though I was a fox it didn't felt wrong anyway it's still me but in a fox suit.

The next morning my body felt light, I stood up and looked around and saw my jacket and my pants, got dressed and got out of the room only to find that Martha was about to get in.

"You are up early, are you feeling better?" She said while looking at my eyes.

"My body still is a little sore, but I'm better now, thanks for helping me Martha, there must be something I could do to repay your kindness." Her face light up and grabbed my arm to guide me to the living room downstairs where an older camel was sitting reading a newspaper.

"So fox, are you going to leave or what?" He said in an annoyed voice that shocked me for a moment, my smile got replaced for a serious face.

"I'm really thankful for saving me and I wish to repay you for saving me." I said while I bowed down which made the eyes of the camel too wide a little.

"JAJAJAJAJA I have never seen a fox bow down to no one, you must be pretty serious about paying us..." he fell silent for a moment then his hoof was on my shoulder making me stand straight. "There is something weird about you but for some reason you don't look like the common fox."

"I only want to pay you back for your kindness, to do something like that to a complete estranger is something not to be taken lightly so please tell me how can I repay you" he looked at me in disbelieve but then he smiled and said.

"You see I actually work in a small store with my son but he is out of town for this week, maybe you could help me here until he comes back. What do you think?" He just looked at my waiting for me to answer.

"I would love to, thanks for the chance to help." I said with a smile then Martha came into the living room which I never noticed she left.

"Breakfast is ready, would you guys want some." she said with a giggle.

(Up until now everything is going good maybe this is a second chance for me to have a better life, so for that I'm going to be the best I can.) I thought as I walk with them to the kitchen as for the beginning of this new life.
