The Changed: What Are We?
This curse that is upon us started 7 years ago. We didn't know what was happening until it was too late. Wolves and dogs from near and far were being slaughtered or so we thought. One by one our numbers dwindled, our family members and friends disappearing. They were always taken in small groups and at night. We created a plan and sent out a group of three while we hide nearby. We were ready to attack, but we followed the humans after they had captured our fellow comrades.
We stayed close behind them and eventually came to a large compound. We could not enter those gates and helplessly watched as they took our unconscious comrades within that prison. We sent word home of our findings and stayed to find a way in. We tried in vain for months to save our comrades.
One day, we were finally found out and captured by our enemies. What we saw inside that camp, even I cannot repeat in full detail for to this day it still sends shudders down my spine. Some of us were brought in unconscious and some of us, including me, were awake and kicking when we were taken.
Hundreds of metal cages were stacked five high. Each cage had a wolf or a dog in it, though they looked strange. They appeared to be mutilated, some with stubs sticking out of their backs, some with several tails, or strange colors and some with all of the mutations.
We were taken deeper inside the compound and taken into a large room with many tables. The tables had thick chains and straps on them. Each of us was tied down to a table and was surrounded by people in white coats. We were injected with painful things.
From there, the changes and pain began. We were within that hideous place for almost a year, maybe longer. We won't know until we make our way back home. We will escape soon, for we are growing stronger than the humans anticipated. Out of the hundreds of us in this place there are only a handful left. The rest died during the process of becoming, what we call ourselves, The Changed. Will you help us, the surviving Changed, to escape? Will you be a human that helps or one of us?
We do not know the challenges that await us beyond these walls. This will be the journey of a lifetime for everyone. I won't say that we will get along and that we will all live. I will only say that we will do what we must to survive in the unknown wilderness beyond this prison's walls. Will you join us?
