[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nRight, of course, stupid, you know the way. \u0026nbsp;We just need to hit Pea-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]Take the freeway east.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nWait, but work is south. \u0026nbsp;Why would I go-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]I will take the freeway east. \u0026nbsp;That will get me where I need to go.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nOf course, right, I know where I'm going. \u0026nbsp;East. \u0026nbsp;That will get me… south… \u0026nbsp;What? \u0026nbsp;Wait, WHAT THE HELL IS-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]There is nothing in the car with me. \u0026nbsp;I am not going to work. \u0026nbsp;I am going to visit my friend. \u0026nbsp;There is nothing to worry about. \u0026nbsp;I have been overworking myself. \u0026nbsp;I need a vacation and some time to relax.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nRight. \u0026nbsp;God, I really must be overworking myself. \u0026nbsp;I feel like I'm seeing things, scaring the hell out of myself, and my mind feels so… fuzzy… \u0026nbsp;Ugh. \u0026nbsp;Dunkin' Donuts. \u0026nbsp;I'm getting some damn coffee. \u0026nbsp;And some donut holes… \u0026nbsp;Everyone likes donut holes, right? \u0026nbsp;I'll get two. \u0026nbsp;One for me, and one for… my friend. \u0026nbsp;How long has it been since I've seen… my friend?\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]It has been too long. \u0026nbsp;I really need to see a friendly face and relax. \u0026nbsp;Nothing else matters.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nWe're gonna just take it easy, and I can just let all this tension and pressure blow away. \u0026nbsp;Mmmmm… coffeeeeeeeee. \u0026nbsp;Yessssss. \u0026nbsp;Sweet, sweet, caffeine, you complete me. \u0026nbsp;You had me at hello. \u0026nbsp;Wait, is something in my car? \u0026nbsp;What-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]There is nothing in the car. \u0026nbsp;I should continue. \u0026nbsp;My friend is waiting for me. \u0026nbsp;Then I can relax.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nIt'll be great to relax. \u0026nbsp;Work has been killing me. \u0026nbsp;I should call Jackson, make sure-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]I do not need to call anyone. \u0026nbsp;They all know their duties. \u0026nbsp;No one will be affected by my absence.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nBut I still have to-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]Everything will be taken care of. \u0026nbsp;All arrangements have been made. \u0026nbsp;I deserve this vacation and have made sure my tasks and duties will be seen to.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nRight, how could I have forgotten? \u0026nbsp;More coffee. \u0026nbsp;Soak it in. \u0026nbsp;Oh, wow, I forgot how good donut holes are. \u0026nbsp;I need to hit up Dunkin' Donuts more often. \u0026nbsp;And the coffee isn't bad either. \u0026nbsp;Great way to start a great morning. \u0026nbsp;I've got… vacation… how long did I-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]I will be on vacation for as long as want. \u0026nbsp;I have taken a leave of absence. \u0026nbsp;The stress was becoming too much for me.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nAll that pressure, all that stress. \u0026nbsp;I just need to take a breather, de-stress, get myself some space and distance. \u0026nbsp;Then I can go back refreshed and reenergized and ready to face the world again. \u0026nbsp;That reminds me, I should make sure Jackson knows to-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]I do not need to contact anyone. \u0026nbsp;They all know what to do. \u0026nbsp;I have made sure all arrangements are taken care of.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nRight, he knows what to do. \u0026nbsp;Of course. \u0026nbsp;If nothing else, there are plenty of other people he can ask. \u0026nbsp;He's been there long enough that he should know the job without someone looking over his shoulder constantly. \u0026nbsp;I hope...\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nIt's been a long time since I've been this far out of the city. \u0026nbsp;It's almost like an entirely different place. \u0026nbsp;Big empty fields, big houses on big plots of land. \u0026nbsp;Oh, there's a subdivision being built. \u0026nbsp;I guess they're developing the area. \u0026nbsp;That'll bring in more businesses, more jobs. \u0026nbsp;People will want convenience close to home. \u0026nbsp;It's almost a shame, but that's progress for you.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nOof, there's the sun coming up. \u0026nbsp;Put the visor down. \u0026nbsp;I hate driving into the sun, glad I don't normally have to go east. \u0026nbsp;How long do-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]Another five miles, then I will turn north.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThat'll be a relief, at least, not having the sun in my eyes. \u0026nbsp;There's a reason statistics show the most traffic incidents during dawn and dusk. \u0026nbsp;The glare alone is enough to kill. \u0026nbsp;At least there's not much traffic. \u0026nbsp;Then again, there's not a whole hell of a lot out this way, is there? \u0026nbsp;I've been passing horses for the last twenty minutes, and I haven't seen a gas station since the one by the Dunkin' Donuts.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]I should take the next left turn.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nI guess this is why they call it the freeway: you're free to take your life into your own hands trying to get off of it if you aren't making a right. \u0026nbsp;Who thought it was a bright idea to make you cross three lanes of traffic anyways? \u0026nbsp;At least they have a light, but does the sensor even work? \u0026nbsp;I've been sitting here for at least five minutes, and it's not like anyone else is coming. \u0026nbsp;Ugh, finally.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nThat's better at least. \u0026nbsp;Turn the other visor and put mine up. \u0026nbsp;Yeah, that's better. \u0026nbsp;No more sun glare. \u0026nbsp;This is really beautiful, though. \u0026nbsp;I wouldn't mind getting a place out here when I get older. \u0026nbsp;I'm sure as hell not going to be farming or ranching, but just a nice little place with a view out over all the rest of this. \u0026nbsp;Then again, this is kind of out there, so far from everything...\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nMaybe somewhere further south would be better, though. \u0026nbsp;I do like this wooded area a bit better, and that Spanish moss looks really beautiful with the sun streaming through it. \u0026nbsp;Yeah, somewhere further south, closer to the city but definitely outside of it.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]I should take the next right. \u0026nbsp;It will be a dirt road. \u0026nbsp;I am almost there. \u0026nbsp;It will be two miles down.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nAlmost there. \u0026nbsp;Finally. \u0026nbsp;Bleh, coffee's gone cold. \u0026nbsp;Oh, well, it did its job. \u0026nbsp;At least it won't be much longer. \u0026nbsp;I hope… my friend… likes coffee? \u0026nbsp;Why don't I-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]That doesn't matter. \u0026nbsp;I will just be glad to get there. \u0026nbsp;Then my journey is over.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nRight. \u0026nbsp;They say the journey is more important than the destination, but that's usually bullshit. \u0026nbsp;The journey is usually shit no matter how you travel. \u0026nbsp;It's either hours in the car, hours on planes, or, god forbid, hours and hours on a bus. \u0026nbsp;Is that it coming up? \u0026nbsp;I think I-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]I should park by the barn. \u0026nbsp;That is where I am expected.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nWhy would I be expected at the barn? \u0026nbsp;That doesn't-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]I am expected at the barn. \u0026nbsp;That is normal. \u0026nbsp;That is where I should go.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nRight, the barn. \u0026nbsp;I'll just pull in here. \u0026nbsp;Wow, the air smells really different out here. \u0026nbsp;I guess you just get used to the city smells. \u0026nbsp;It smells so… fresh.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]The [i]barn[/i]. \u0026nbsp;I need to go into the barn. \u0026nbsp;The small door on the right.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nRight, the barn. \u0026nbsp;Wow, it's dark in here. \u0026nbsp;Wait, what- Oh my god! \u0026nbsp;What are those people…? \u0026nbsp;Shit, I need to get-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]I need to stand very still and turn around. \u0026nbsp;I will not be afraid.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nOh, god, what is-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]It is my Master. \u0026nbsp;I will not be afraid.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nMaster? But-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]This is my Master. \u0026nbsp;He is of a very ancient and powerful race. \u0026nbsp;It is an honor that I am allowed to serve him.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nWait, serve? \u0026nbsp;No, no, n-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]This is my place. \u0026nbsp;It is the place of every good pet.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nPet? \u0026nbsp;What? \u0026nbsp;I am [i]not[/i] a-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]Human being. \u0026nbsp;I am not a human being. \u0026nbsp;I am a pet. \u0026nbsp;I am a pet to my Master. \u0026nbsp;I belong to him.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nBut… I don't-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]I am a pet. \u0026nbsp;I am my Master's pet. \u0026nbsp;This is my Master. \u0026nbsp;I am his pet.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nHis eyes are so deep, it's like I could fall into them forever…\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]A pet should not look too long into Master's eyes. \u0026nbsp;A pet could become lost in them forever. \u0026nbsp;Master would not like a mindless pet.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nRight, look away, look down at- holy fuck! \u0026nbsp;What are-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]Those are Master's other pets. \u0026nbsp;I am a pet. \u0026nbsp;They are pets. \u0026nbsp;We are the same. \u0026nbsp;What they do, I shall do, because Master wills it.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nBut I don't want-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]My wants do not matter. \u0026nbsp;My needs do not matter. \u0026nbsp;My will does not matter. \u0026nbsp;Only Master's wants matter. \u0026nbsp;Only Master's needs matter. \u0026nbsp;Only Master's will matters.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nBut… but I…\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]Master is all that matters. \u0026nbsp;I live for Master. \u0026nbsp;I die for Master. \u0026nbsp;I serve Master. \u0026nbsp;I am his.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nI… \u0026nbsp;I don't…\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]Master will care for me. \u0026nbsp;Master will protect me. \u0026nbsp;I have no more worries, now that I am with him. \u0026nbsp;I have no more fears, now that I am his. \u0026nbsp;All I need do is what Master desires of me. \u0026nbsp;All I need think of is Master's desires.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nMaster's… desires… But my family! \u0026nbsp;My friends!\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]Are of no consequence. \u0026nbsp;They do not matter. \u0026nbsp;Master is all that matters. \u0026nbsp;Master's other pets will be my new friends, my new family. \u0026nbsp;All united under Master. \u0026nbsp;All devoted to Master.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nDevoted to Master…\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]Master is all. \u0026nbsp;I live for Master.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nLive… for Master…\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]I should follow Master to my new home.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nNew home… but what about my apartment?\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]That was never my home. \u0026nbsp;That was only temporary until I could join Master. \u0026nbsp;Now I am with Master. \u0026nbsp;I have found my true home.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nI am home…\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]I should kneel in Master's presence and bare myself to him. \u0026nbsp;Pets should never hide themselves from Master. \u0026nbsp;A pet's place is at Master's feet. \u0026nbsp;Pets are not equal. \u0026nbsp;Pets are below Master. \u0026nbsp;Pets are below everything. \u0026nbsp;I am a pet.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nA pet… yes. \u0026nbsp;Yes, I should be bare before Master. \u0026nbsp;This is my place, at Master's feet. \u0026nbsp;This is where I belong, but why is he-\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]My collar is a gift from Master. \u0026nbsp;It marks me as Master's pet and property. \u0026nbsp;I must never remove it or allow it to be removed by anyone but Master.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nYes, my collar. \u0026nbsp;I am Master's. \u0026nbsp;I will never take it off. \u0026nbsp;I belong to Master. \u0026nbsp;This is my home. \u0026nbsp;This is where I belong. \u0026nbsp;I live for Master.\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\n[b]I should sleep. \u0026nbsp;Master will come for me later to begin my training. \u0026nbsp;I must be ready for him.[/b]\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nYes… Sleep… Sleep for Master...","series":{"name":"Personal Writing - General","previous":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1192102-i-dream-of-deadpool-no-really-this-was-a-dream.json","next":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1199866-a-change-in-thinking-sexy-version.json"}}
