The continuation of Old Man No More. I forgot to mention that these were chapter titles as I have yet to find a suitable title for the story.

The afterlife must be a cruel joke.&nbsp; It seems that way as I munch on the scrap I was able to steal away from the human clan.&nbsp; I watched them settled down on their grassy knoll as I watched from the tree.&nbsp; They do not seem to be able to climb trees or show much intelligence which bothered me.&nbsp; However, they become aggressive and seven to one, I am at a disadvantage.&nbsp; I swallowed the last bit of food and looked to the night sky.&nbsp; I want to escape and explore this world. &nbsp;

When I first woke, I thought a bunch of dogs broken into my home.&nbsp; As my vision cleared, they looked large and grunting loudly.&nbsp; Fear shot through me as I tried to get up and run, only to find myself bound to the bed.&nbsp; I tried to scream out but I had no voice.&nbsp; As I struggled, strong hands held me still as I watched one them held up a device and jam it into my arm.&nbsp; I felt a warm sensation coursing through me, a moment of panic then euphoria.&nbsp; in my calm state, I watched the world unfold as I was lead from room to room.&nbsp; Seeing different "human-animals" along the way and listening to their grunting language.&nbsp; At some point I fell asleep and when I woke, I was caged with these primitive humans.

I stretched out my hand and finger each thought out.&nbsp; One, I am not dead, possibly.&nbsp; Two, this world is rule by anthropomorphic animals.&nbsp; As it was obvious by the way they view us through the glass.&nbsp; Three, this is a zoo as I can see other exhibits from my perch on the tree.&nbsp; Four, thank goodness this tree has wide and smooth branches as I was thrown in here without clothes.&nbsp; Five, I seem to be young again as I am able to do many things without hesitation or pain.&nbsp; As well as noticing my soft taught skin and the return of certain desires.&nbsp; Six, I lost my voice which was a shame.&nbsp; I had made a living with my singing.&nbsp; The lack of talking has me worried the most.&nbsp; It has been difficult to attract the attention of the keepers without getting shocked from their rods.&nbsp;

I sighed and tremble with desire, again.&nbsp; The cool air swooping and caressing my sensitivity but I have to resist.&nbsp; There was no way to clean up after and I reek.&nbsp; Needless to say how badly but it has been a week's worth since being locked up.&nbsp; Maybe more prior to being here.&nbsp;

Tomorrow will be my gamble.&nbsp; If I fell on plan A, then I must go all out into plan B.&nbsp; 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.&nbsp; Honestly, I do not want to risk plan B.
