 Loud noises are everywhere. Every single corner is lit with these ling poles that reach to the sky. strolling past, many humans are in a box-like things making all sorts of turns, while other humans are walking. . . IN MY DIRECTION! "Quick gotta hide!" Looking around there was no place to hide. The humans are getting closer. I froze. I was expecting the worst. Already thinking of death, instead I felt a hug around my neck. I opened my eyes and saw a tiny human. I tried to back away but the tiny human had a strong grip. Another human is coming. 

I was more in shock because this one was bigger, "No Elizabeth, don't touch that dirty dog." The tiny human lets go and walked towards the other human. "Shoo", the human was motioning her hands for me to leave.  

I turn and walked off to my left, getting a away from those two. Aloud noise was beeping towards my direction. Turing my head in the direction of the noise, the box-like thing was flashing its lights at me. Already panicking from before, I ran straight hoping to get away, but realizing I ran into more humans. Not wanting to stop, I continued. Some humans gave me cute looks, while most humans gave me disgusted looks or completely ignored me. Still Panicking from every human I have seen, when I calmed down enough, I saw that I was in a dark place. I took a sniff of the area and did not pick up a scent from the humans, letting out a sigh of relief.

Many days had pass and I have only been surviving from scraps I find, or when humans throw their food towards me. It gets tiring from running away from specific humans. I do not understand what they are trying to do, but them having a large stick with a loop at the end is not helping. I can not trust them.

 Walking around the human world on a hot day, can really leave a wolf thirsty. Not knowing where I am going. I stumbled upon a large bin, and let me tell you the smell was horrible. There was only trash in the large bin. 

Trying to get away from the smell, I found a small stream. Trying to lick at the very little water available, it looked like it was coming from up hill.  Not giving it a second thought I ran towards it. Following the scent that it gave, making turns left and right, to finally find the main source. Only the weird thing it was not a lake or even a stream but water was dripping from it. Carefully walking towards it I take a sniff and I get two different scents, the smell of water, and the smell of humans and I mean a lot of them. I continue to sniff out the area and it is the only thing I pick up, the human smell. 

Thinking if I should turn and leave, my thirst had got the better of me. At this point I am trying to break whatever the thing holding the water is called. only to manage to leave scratch marks. "What is this thing? Wolf proof?" speaking to myself out loud. 

Frantically trying and finally managing to break it, there was no water.  

"Are you KIDDING ME!" 

Pacing pack and fort. A sound of a bell went off. Looking over from the corner, slightly peeking, a huge swarm of humans were forming. "Oh no, Oh no," exhausted from my fight with the machine. Two humans were pointing in my direction, "HEY LOOK," the human shouted. I looked where the human was facing and noticed a whole group of humans were coming towards me. Six. Six humans were coming plus the other two. I did not want to stay any longer.

"Gotcha."

I let out a whimper feeling my tail being grabbed and pulled simultaneously. I try to run, but still being tired, and now with an added bonus, with my tail being pulled. 

"Come on guys, look over here" A human pointing in the direction.

"Ew, what is that thing," A human covering their face with a rectangle object.

"So, Billy, what is it?" 

By now every human surrounded me. I barked to show them I meant business. 

"It's just a stupid dog. Let's beat it up." The human named, Billy, gave the order, "hey Patrick, hold it down."

They grabbed at my neck and forced me to the ground, Billy started with the first kick, right at my ribs. Letting out another whimper, but they continued. Another kick. Another punch. They got creative and started bringing items to beat me with.

Losing my breath, I slowly started to close my eyes, thinking this was it. Every part of my body was numb. I could not take it anymore, yet I could not move. 

As I laid there, there was another, sweeter voice, "Hey! Stop that!"

I laid still, afraid what might happen if I open my eyes. 

"You can be hurting animals just cause you want to!" the sweet voice of the human said.

"Come on Scarlet, don't you want to join in the fun?" Billy trying to pull at my fur.

I opened half of my eye to see what is going on.

"Get lost. Before I call the cops. I recorded everything on my phone." Scarlet holding an object in her hand. 

"Whatever." Billy leaving while shoving Scarlet.

Watching every human leaving. Scarlet stayed. "Oh you poor thing." Scarlet petting my head. Trying many ways to pick me up, "don't worry, you'll come home with me." Still in pain from the beating, I passed out.
