I forgot to mention that these were chapter titles as I have yet to find a suitable title for the story.","content":"The afterlife must be a cruel joke.\u0026nbsp; It seems that way as I munch on the scrap I was able to steal away from the human clan.\u0026nbsp; I watched them settled down on their grassy knoll as I watched from the tree.\u0026nbsp; They do not seem to be able to climb trees or show much intelligence which bothered me.\u0026nbsp; However, they become aggressive and seven to one, I am at a disadvantage.\u0026nbsp; I swallowed the last bit of food and looked to the night sky.\u0026nbsp; I want to escape and explore this world. \u0026nbsp;\n\nWhen I first woke, I thought a bunch of dogs broken into my home.\u0026nbsp; As my vision cleared, they looked large and grunting loudly.\u0026nbsp; Fear shot through me as I tried to get up and run, only to find myself bound to the bed.\u0026nbsp; I tried to scream out but I had no voice.\u0026nbsp; As I struggled, strong hands held me still as I watched one them held up a device and jam it into my arm.\u0026nbsp; I felt a warm sensation coursing through me, a moment of panic then euphoria.\u0026nbsp; in my calm state, I watched the world unfold as I was lead from room to room.\u0026nbsp; Seeing different \"human-animals\" along the way and listening to their grunting language.\u0026nbsp; At some point I fell asleep and when I woke, I was caged with these primitive humans.\n\nI stretched out my hand and finger each thought out.\u0026nbsp; One, I am not dead, possibly.\u0026nbsp; Two, this world is rule by anthropomorphic animals.\u0026nbsp; As it was obvious by the way they view us through the glass.\u0026nbsp; Three, this is a zoo as I can see other exhibits from my perch on the tree.\u0026nbsp; Four, thank goodness this tree has wide and smooth branches as I was thrown in here without clothes.\u0026nbsp; Five, I seem to be young again as I am able to do many things without hesitation or pain.\u0026nbsp; As well as noticing my soft taught skin and the return of certain desires.\u0026nbsp; Six, I lost my voice which was a shame.\u0026nbsp; I had made a living with my singing.\u0026nbsp; The lack of talking has me worried the most.\u0026nbsp; It has been difficult to attract the attention of the keepers without getting shocked from their rods.\u0026nbsp;\n\nI sighed and tremble with desire, again.\u0026nbsp; The cool air swooping and caressing my sensitivity but I have to resist.\u0026nbsp; There was no way to clean up after and I reek.\u0026nbsp; Needless to say how badly but it has been a week's worth since being locked up.\u0026nbsp; Maybe more prior to being here.\u0026nbsp;\n\nTomorrow will be my gamble.\u0026nbsp; If I fell on plan A, then I must go all out into plan B.\u0026nbsp; I tossed a small rock at the dominant male that tried to stop me from getting to the food. It bounced off the wall hit the glass making a small crack that the keepers have yet to noticed.\u0026nbsp; Honestly, I do not want to risk plan B.\n\n  \n  \n\n"}
