But when I turned around to finish crossing the street nothing could prepare me for what was about to happen next, a car going like 70mph in a school zone came driving without showing any signs of stopping came up and hit me straight on.

And with that darkness came and I was no more.

Sooner than I knew it, I heard the sounds of birds chirping. I could feel a warmth in the air. It was morning. I could tell. It just felt so calm and peaceful. I was so warm. I felt so happy being there. Wait. That car that hit me! Was that real!?

I opened my eyes, only to have to squint again from how much the sun was bright in my face. Man, it was morning. I looked around to see where I was. I was in the middle of some sort of meadow filled flowers.

I looked around to see that the layout of this place was impressive. Where I was laying was on bed of flowers. When I turned around to look in front of me, and what I almost made my eyes pop out of my sockets. There was an enormous city, with many big buildings next to each, and with regions to it.

Where was I? I couldn't figure out where my location was. I obviously wasn't at the school anymore, because I don't recall there being a meadow or a big city like this where I am from.

I yawned and decided to go to that city to see if there was someone there that could explain to me where I am and how I got here. But before I did that I needed to get a drink because boy was I thirsty. Luckily there was pond filled what look like to me was clean water. I went over to the edge to look over at the water. As my head leaned down, I saw the reflection of a creatures face that was orange and reddish and its mouth shaped like a muzzle, it had yellow like eyes, canine like ears and looked like a fox.

AWW! A fox! How cute! It reminded me of the foxes that came around my home sometimes. The fox looked so cute, smiling into the water and looking... back... at me?

Wait a minute. Where was MY reflection? Where was my face? It wasn't showing at all as a reflection on the water. Whoa... that fox was copying my expressions. Weird. How was it doing that? I didn't understand; it made me confused.

Suddenly, something got into my left eye. I grunted and started to scrape on my eye, trying to get out whatever it was in my eye. Finally, I was able to, but my eye was a bit itchy. So, I had it closed for a while. Suddenly, I realized it; the fox had his left eye closed too. What the!? How was this possible!?

It was at that moment, my brain finally kicked in and brought a hypothesis in my head. I decided to test it. I slowly raised my left arm and touched my left ear. The fox did the same. I then wiggled my nose; it did the same. I moved my body to show my right side. When the fox did it, it showed its tail. We both widened our eyes. This was the last test. I wiggled part of my rear, and the fox then moved his tail around.

It was creepy. How did this fox have the ability to mock and copy every move and expression I did? I shook my head and looked down... only to see my arms were orange and reddish and furry and I had paws with claws instead of regular human hands, like the fox. I then realized something right there and then. I stood up and looked back at the reflection. I saw the fox was standing up too. It was therefore clear to me.

I WAS TRANSFORMED INTO A FOX!
