/// DISCLAIMER ///
Unfortunately, this story was never continued.
I've moved into my own projects, I've grown to be more mature, and I've grown out of Changed, in fact, I've sort of taken a slight tint of dislike towards it, I'm still proud of the original book, I won't lie, it was the best I could do in a while, but there's so much better I can write and make.
This story helped me create plenty of characters and finetune some already existing character lore I have, in fact, I've been working on an original story for a potential game or animatic utilizing the protagonist of the main book with my refined art skills, it does resemble the original in that it takes place in a facility infested by humanoid-half animal monsters, but that's about it.

Who am I? Who was my family? Where are my friends? Why am I here?
This story takes place in an alternate timeline to the Changed video game, but everything remains practically the same. It takes inspiration from Awful Hospital: Seriously the Worst Ever, and combines it with my writing style. This story tries to put aside the transformation fetish aspect of the original game to provide a solid story.
Meet our protagonist, you should probably know the drill by now: They awoke at a facility. Weird furry things are trying their best to catch him, but unlike the last person that tried to survive in this facility, he's been lucky enough to have come across several tools to help him out. The story is told through the entries and sketches our protagonist uses to remain calm.
This story contains slightly-gratuitous coarse language from our protagonist every so often. Although no sexual content is present in the story, it was built under a furry transformation game, thus it can be slightly uncomfortable to certain groups of people.
"Changed" made by DragonSnow.
You weren't supposed to be alive, and Arkin wasn't supposed to survive.
You weren't exactly happy, but you were surviving in your little life with your abusive father and his whore of a stripper girlfriend. And then you saw a man throw someone down the flight of stairs next to your apartment. Throwing caution to the wind, you didn't care what happened next. You just didn't know you'd get a friend, a family, and maybe even a lover.
But Arkin can't run from the past for forever. Only question is, how much is he willing to risk to keep you safe?
*****
Many of you may remember my story Basically Strangers. This is the better version, rewritten to make more sense. Its yandere x nonbinary reader. I've changed the story and edited the characters. The reader uses they/them pronouns.
Okay, so. This is going to be a weird thing to say, but Arkin has a caregiver personality towards the reader. Anyone who knows about or takes part in age regression will recognize that fairly quickly. If his personality and actions make you uncomfortable, stop reading. Don't get mad at me for my character. This was originally based on the idea of "I like you and literally nobody else".
I originally wrote the story when I was 14. I'm rewriting it as a 17 year old. Let me know what you think of the newer version!
