The story of the horse is finished, however Roody the Rottweiler will taste the goods of being an alpha and having a pup


Instinctive Domination (part 2)

Outside of the house of the Rottweiler there was a sound of a commotion. The Rottweiler went to the back of the house and he saw the bear standing next to a fallen tree, it had crushed the fence, a chainsaw was broken and stuck in the log of the tree, it was his chainsaw! Half of the tree was in the backyard of Roody, luckily it didn't hit any house nor felt on somebody.

"Yo! Diggy doggy! Now you have work to do, and next time, buy better tools!"

Rudolf returned with his red eyes, he looked straight of the kangaroo as a rabid street mutt.

"So, you said you can teach me how to control anybody? ..."

Next morning I woke alone, on my bed. The fresh memories hit my floating head. I wanted to repeat the experience. But I thought about it and at the end, it felt as I was only used. As if I was just a dumb animal who only is used to reproduce and to look good. Is it wise to let those feelings taking control of you? What about my old dreams like founding a videogames producer company? Will they disappear? Because their plan was to live simple, and it implies not complex things like videogames.

I did sit on the edge of my bed. Now that I satisficed one of my primal animal necessities, I had the feeling that this was not a good way to live. Always expecting to be ordered to do things, having the uncertainty of keeping your own identity, falling victim of the time to rut, and overall, sharing your couple. I tried to hate Jamal but for some strange reason, I changed that feeling for respect. Anyway, I had to take my wife and we could escape to some wild place in the mountains, maybe I learn to cut trees and to farm. I came to the conclusion we must leave the herds.

I got out of my room and I didn't find Carol, I was getting worried because that donkey could take her to someplace. So I prepared to go to work. I had to wait the moment when we are alone. That day when I arrived to the main entrance, one of the officers received me with a warm smile, he smelled me and treated me well. Then I waited an hour to go to the testers' office. There, in the team now were 3 donkey males, a female, 2 horse males and a female. They were doing nothing important, only 2 of the donkeys were testing a program for horse people. I asked to the horse lady to come with me.

I came to notice she was Britany, we started to work there almost the same time. I asked politely to test my program, she inhaled and shuddered a little while she explained me Mr. Miller gave her a free time. I explained her tenderly this favor was only matter of horse honor, I rounded her 2 times while I let her to sniff me. I stood behind her, I approached my horse snout on her left shoulder while I rubbed her belly, near her breasts.

She shuddered again, I felt her hot, then she told me she wasn't allowed to mate me, I told her I was a loyal horse and I'd never do anything contrary of the will of her leader. I said to her if the leader gave her free time means she would work in what she want if she pleases to. She received my Pen Drive and started to work. We didn't noted A04 was looking, but he had a horny stare and a big grin.

I was proud, my last project went so good and so smooth! Britany congratulated me, and the boss didn't knew about it. It was a shame my program won't be used. I was worried because my little problem with the donkey server. So I went to look for him and he was alone in the stairs, as always in the same hour as scheduled. I ask him what he saw and fortunately he didn't see the Pen Drive, only two horny beasts. I got closer to him slowly, I rubbed his ears and I told him it was an error and nobody would know.

He told me he should tell what he saw, if his superiors (Scout, or Charles) make the question. I'm straight and I thought he was too but then he sniffed me and moved his ears to the back, I rubbed his head and made it touch my chest. I bet his eyes rolled to the back. I commanded to forget he had seen me this day and he was reluctant to nod. I pulled his head and we walked side by side while I lead him to walk a little. I came to the realization equine people were genetically engineered to obey. It was supposed they would do it to their superiors and they would respect all humans but as everything in live, the scientist had mistaken because they miscalculated the impact of pheromones.

Carol was ready to runt and all the time I felt submissive but somehow I got self-confidence. Maybe I was producing an excess of pheromones too; sorry for Britany and A04, I was doing the same they did to me. The donkey server only nodded, he was mine for now. I slapped his butt cheeks and commanded him to get back to work and he brayed as saying "yes sir". The day went with no more problems, I was so happy.

There back in my home I was received by Mr. Johnson, you know, my herd leader, there were 2 donkey males and another horse. He told me he had to put that beasts in 'our house' before they were put to work in an office he had acquired recently. So, I would share my wife, and my home to that person? That moment I felt as if I can resist his charming, but I felt not enough to trying to tame him. So I accepted. I had to look for my wife and maybe I could talk with her in her saloon.

Days became not so important and I found my influence in the mini herd was growing, the horse was there for reinforcing my tie to the herd but all the 3 beasts started to act as I requested sometimes, some others I had to obey to not arise suspicious. My life for 3 more weeks was divided in serving two leaders. The company were I worked was totally assimilated, Mr. Miller gave me the privilege of converting 2 of my coworkers by injecting them the transformative serum. Charles invited Jamal to a reunion into a neutral site, ruled by other horse, but that boss only offered the restaurant. Mr. Miller offered his servers to act as waiters and chefs.

I was invited to that event, just like Britany, Scout and others, but of curse Jamal and Charles were in the table of honor. Charles had a mature but well looking mare, Jamal was presuming my wife. My boss served me and others who shared my table, it felt so wrong, and so alluring, having my old boss stripped of any identity and addressing me as 'sire'. Carol looked elegant and hot; however she seemed so entranced, I bet she wasn't aware of her own thoughts. And here came the event that got me here.

Jamal told to Charles that Carol was pregnant, she bowed at Charles; then, everybody congratulated to Jamal as if he was the father of my colt! My head boiled, I wanted to fight. I wanted to show them who truly was the strongest stallion of that place. I only clapped. At the beginning I thought everybody was just assuming there would be ok with a mule to come. Once the dinner finished and everybody started to talk. I discretely approached to them and I heard the plans for me, that donkey would rise my foal, he would give me to Charles to do the same, to give foals to designated females and then they would bet me as prize, to try to break me and put me to work as a gelded and mindless animal.

One part of me was proud, they recognized me as a good fine horse. My genes could make their herds better, the other side was insulting because my offspring and I will be reduced to slavery. I totally forgot my cold plans to take over the herd of Jamal while he was distracted with Carol. Once the meeting finished I followed Jamal and Carol and I started to fight. I stood in front of them, she tried to refrain me but her pheromones were not influencing me. It seemed Jamal was losing his mind, he didn't acted straight and cold as the moment I knew him.

But he still was able to command, quiet contrary of what anybody could think, he won the fight. Not only that, Charles sent his men, well he sent his horses to grab me. I had lost my wife completely but I refused to see the true until now, they captured me, they submitted me. The next days they shared a dungeon where I was strapped by hooves and arms, I was drugged with aphrodisiacs and put to reproduce, once they got what they wanted, 2 male and a female foals for each herd they sold me to a barn to other horse leader. There I saw how were submitted the ones who resisted the pheromones.

A huge horse dressed in pure leather pants and leather vest ruled with iron hand, all his equines used harness, bridles, leather muzzles, and reins. Well! I made Jamal and Charles to be united, and I wondered to myself what would happen, will they make a big herd? Will one try to dominate the other? Anyway that wasn't my business now. I was forced to live in a stable inside a barn, with many other horses, donkeys and feral counterparts. At the beginning I wasn't aware of how the things would go, but a whip in my back was what I needed to understand it.

I was sold to this slaver, however he had another function and he was paid in some manner I didn't get. Herd leaders used to go to that barn and they left their most rebellious equines, the task of this mad horse was to break the conflictive element and make them obedient. Even by cutting their ... you know, their pair of ... you know. Fortunately I escaped on time.

Poor slaves, it was sad how they were tamed. Before me there was a foolish donkey and a stubborn horse. I started to refrain my instincts so I was getting harder to control, however... when Casius, (yep, that was his name) ordered me to bring things I tried to complain a little. Then that pair refused and you know, Casius used to take the whip and stuffs. He knew what he did, every punishment seemed so calculated, however he didn't tame me. Nobody will tame me!

The broken equines reacted quickly at signals given every time. In the morning, at 6:30 am, the sound of a bell travelled across the barn and every slave woke up and put in the garments by themselves, the harness, the muzzle, the bridle, their loincloths and their leather wristlets and anklets, then they formed a line and marched sounding their hooves on the ground, once they were out, they stood, waiting for their commands. Casius checked his notes and assigned to every horse and donkey their chores. The new 'recruits' always got the hardest chores of the barn.

10:00 o'clock they were called to eat. An assistant of Casius ringed a triangle where every 'worker' was and if they could stop immediately they did and followed, if the task couldn't stop, the worker knew where to go. Casius didn't allowed them to eat at a table, the meal of every equine was served into a bag, they had a through full of fresh water to refresh. The workers only received oath, pasture and sometimes other grains. When they finished their food they were allowed to horse around, for 20 to 30 minutes until a new alarm ringed to their time to go back to work. They had to work again until 4 in the afternoon, they were fed again and they had to work from 5 until the sunset.

Nobody talked too much. The only thing that mattered to them was to work hard, to obey and to gain muscles. Casius, with the help of some of his slaves tied the three of us with a plow and made us to work as beasts of burden. The donkey fellow pulled for 2 yards and stopped, the other horse and I pulled in different direction of we were told and obviously the slaver whipped us. I suffered a little but I felt I could resist his whiplashes; but the other two went wild and they were whipped more.

He went to his house and a pair of horses who looked similar to him, a mare and a stallion, they took us by the bridle and made us to repeat the chore. Both horses were weaker than the big daddy; although they had much strength. I did my work the best I could, however the other two refused to play cool. The son of Casius took the horse by the bridle and made his subject to kneel. Then, he whipped the back for many times and I lost the count, then the colt strapped the rebel by his wrists and ran with the rein, the other horse was forced to follow.

The mare did almost exactly the same to the donkey, but she put her nice hoof in the neck of the donkey and she obliged the male to kiss the ground. She pated my nose and took both of us by the rein. She tied me in a pole and showed me how his brother had bought 2 big pieces of wood, my fellows were there with their hands at their back and both brothers proceeded to attach the two wooden pieces on every slave. Once with the wood on their neck, they untied the hands and tied them in the ... I don't know how to call it, the piece of wood. The horse and donkey had their hands suspended at the level of their muzzles, they were forced to stay stood and she gently drove me to work again.

I worked hard, I followed my commands while I was analyzing all the farm, looking for a way to escape. From time to time I saw the poor horse and donkey standing, with their mouths open, they were thirsty, their knees shaking, strapped and attached to a lone wooden pole. I saw the donkey starting to break. The horse wasn't even near. When the time to rest came, another bell sounded and everyone went to rest, even the bath was scheduled, some horses and donkeys went to shower and others went straight to their stall. I was forced to walk along with the mare. She wasn't of my type but... I refrained of that feelings because pheromones are dangerous here if you let them acting.

She took the donkey by the reins, we left the horse with a face of hate and deception. The donkey had his stare low, his ears down, I was walking normally and with a discrete sense of pride... I would leave once they were distracted enough. When she got us into the stables, she left me and said "you may rest, slave" I bowed and went to prepare to sleep. From far, I saw how she treated the ass nicely. She retired him the wood and touched it to make he see it, as a warning. He simply nodded and brayed.

More days went by and I saw the donkey fellow falling into the role, still we the three new beasts didn't answer the sound signals as we were supposed but the donkey and I were making efforts, meanwhile the other horse... Every time he was behaving rebellious I tried to make signals asking him to stop, to trust me, but he looked at me with a stare of deception.

For 2 days the other new horse disappeared, I felt afraid, I thought he would be murdered, but the 3rd day he appeared, very submissive, he didn't have the pride he had showed. I didn't get why he had been broken so quickly until the time we were on free time, he used to cover his privates, we didn't have normal cloths, but loincloths, there were nothing to be ashamed... unless he had lost his... you know... so sorry for him. That horse and donkey soon joined the herd as physically as mentally. They showed respect to Casius and his sons, they adapted to the role.

I won't tell you how I escaped, for now. Tomorrow or other day I'll do. Meanwhile, why don't we go and walk around before they call us to eat? And, I assume you are vegetarian, aren't you?

"So kanga-Roody, will you play that file when he tells how he escaped?"

"Maybe Rottie-Roody, but other day. Do you want to know how we escaped and what happened to him?"

"Yes! Sure I do!" the dog wagged his tail happily and eager to listen.

"I was surprised how that equines were so submissive, Fausto was somehow in control of many equines inside the research facility they put us together. Some scientists had protections like gasmasks and counter pheromone inoculations. They committed the mistake of taking my futuristic stuffs in the same building because nobody knows. You know, that place was made to biologic researches, they were looking a way to convert donkeys into horses and vice versa. The human population dropped to 30% and also they planned to convert them into bulls and sheep, instead to assimilate them all. So they shared info with the facility designed to that experiment, they didn't know what to do and dropped me there"

"So, I suppose the escape was easy"

"Not so easy, as I said, the important things were secured with prepared horses, one night Fausto went to my cell and he got me out using a key, it seemed he had controlled some janitors. We went to the store to get my stuffs, nobody was aware of what was happening. We got my stuffs and I asked him if he wanted to stay here, if so we would escape by using my hypno-pendulous, when he was thinking about his options, two big horse guards found us on the corridors. Instead of calling for reinforce, they tried to grab us, big mistake. Fausto went into some kind of fight position, standing tall, with his chest inflated and his hoofed hands in front, I bet he tried to look fierce but he looked like some kind of dumb feral horse on his back hooves and near to fall."

"Woof! And what did you do?"

"I showed my kangaroo powers. I jumped and charged against them. A yard and foots before the crashing I jumped to a wall and punched one of them straight to his face. He collapsed. The other neighed and stood in the same weird position, I used my nice and strong tail to get support and I kicked his chest. He flew, his back crashed in the other wall and like so, both horses were knocked out. We heard hooves approaching quickly and he told me 'please! Take me out of this world'. So we ran to outside of the building, we were trapped between the walls, so we saw how the other guards came to us. My horse friend was resigned to finish this adventure before it started, and then... do you have some milk? And a piece of bread, it's 7:00 pm and I'm craving for it! "

The dog frustrated a little, the kangaroo made a big pause, the dog invited him to the kitchen and the marsupial resumed his talking, once both ate their milk and bread.

"We were outside of the buildings, in the middle of the yard of the complex. We saw some equines coming to us. In our running I noted he has a good speed. I looked for something we could use and I found a bench near a wall, that wall was a border of that complex, so I said him he should trust me and he must run straight to that bench and jump with all his strength. We ran together and I stopped. I grabbed my IJG" Kangaroo Roody showed his device like gun. "You know, Interdimensional Jumping Gun, and I shot some 5 ft. over the ground. The portal was formed in the wall, he jumped just on time, fortunately for me, once he got in the other side I saw how the 7 or 9 equines stopped their tracks and amazed of what was occurring, then I jumped with all speed and I crossed"

"Oh, that was great!"

"When I landed I saw the poor horse on the ground, as he didn't know what to expect, he landed in a bad way. His snout was bleeding, he had some injuries in his knees and his forearms. I tried to help him but a sound was herd, a dumb donkey guard jumped and as soon he landed, in the same bad way as my fellow, the portal was closed."

"What a fool equine! What he was thinking?"

"I don't know, he pointed his stunt gun at me. He was still on the ground, with a huge headache, I distracted him while Fausto recovered and when the donkey was distracted. My horse friend grabbed him by his neck. He was using a gasmask, the moment Fausto pulled away it, the equine relaxed little by little. The grip on his neck cut his air and he fainted.

We landed in one of my 3 homes, you know, I have 3 universes that I call my home, the first one is where my family is, the second and the third are universes where there's no any of us and had some special characteristics. The one where I took Fausto is populated by all kind of anthropomorphic animals, even reptiles and dragons, but they are only few, there I have a grange"

"Impressive! How was it possible to have any kind of anthropomorphic animals? I bet cat people and dog people fight every time"

"Nah! Just the usual. We were very close to my house; there I have a hypnotized cat butler, he's a nice guy. He is chubby, he has orange and white fur with yellow straps across his back, as if he was a cute and cartoonish version of a tiger. I screamed to call his attention and he went to help us. He strapped our unexpected visitor and I helped my horse to get inside. Once Fausto rested in the living room I ran to help Snuggles to take the donkey to my basement. Yes the name of my cat is Snuggles."

"Let me guess, you helped to Fausto and then he lived a happy new life; after, you punished the donkey and sent him back to his universe"

"Not even near. I had something in mind once I got two weak minded beasts of burden. My house needs work and dedication that I cannot give it and if I let those going there I don't know what kind of evil animal could do with them; besides, Fausto told me he would never be tamed, he was challenging me, how can I refuse? I felt like a cheater because I used everything he told me to tame him. That's the bad side of being open and not keep some secrets on you, your weaknesses could fall in the hands of the wrong person, or in this case, the wrong marsupial."

"That was so funny, I'm eager to listen it too"

The kangaroo was tired and both Rudolf went to sleep

###

"I will tell you just a brief because I HAVE to teach you, not only how to be a good alpha, but being a good handler to our bear-dog subject".

The dog did want to know every detail but he thought it was better to have some other adventures by himself.

"Fausto had near a year without tasting sugar, his food was awful and sometimes he missed soda and other things. Firstly I commanded Snuggles to hiding any good meal we could have except for the meat. The horse was shocked to know I am omnivore while he lost all his like for meat. I encouraged the white horse to go and 'show his abilities' to the donkey to the basement. Every time I saw a good advance of the domination I offered to Fausto a big and juicy apple, or a delicious carrot. When he needed a shower, I put Snuggles to brush all his body, to caress him.

I bought some gear to him and his donkey, muzzles, bridles, harnesses, and everything they could need. When the donkey was dominated, Fausto showed me his work, he had said he was straight but I have my doubts. Maybe he is bi. He patted the donkeys snout, touched the chest and the waist, he rewarded any order well executed and gave the treats to the donkey in a way the former guard had to lick the hoof-hand of the horse."

"And then, were you controlling the horse yet?"

"Not so much, I did exactly what he did to his donkey, plus more rubs on his face, more attention and more sugar. When he started to address me as sir, I reward him by going out to run to the near town, I commanded him to treat me as a friend in front of others and to keep it as secret, people love secrets! I showed some videos and movies I brought from other earths where feral horses were loved by their owners and at the same time they and their owner had to face a not so big problem. Most of those videos were about a racing horse or a horse that had to work or the owner could lost a big farm.

When we watched those videos, I told him many times he was my pet, pets don't have to do other things but love their owner, relax and work hard. When he nodded or said he was agree, I gave him cubes of sugar or sodas. I repeated that so much, I was getting bored, until surprisingly he told me 'A proper beast of burden must live in the barn, we, your beasts of burden, will sleep in there, if it is your wish, my lord'. I enjoyed it, I didn't used my pendulum; I didn't have to record a hypno video or a hypno record. Obviously as reward of their total submission, I had to look for some horse lady who can fulfill their desires. Now I have 3 slaves keeping my house. Snuggles is in charge, he have to keep well and clean my equines, the other 2 were reduced to being pets and they love it"

"Nice work!"

"It's nothing, now let's watch the TV. I read the news and it seems there's a soccer game this afternoon. After that, I will train you!"

"Neat!"

###

The kangaroo and the Rottweiler were walking to the bear neighbor's house, and they were talking in low voice.

"First question, you said the facilities were connected, and then you said you convinced the horses to be an experiment of other facility, how did believe you? They could call to verify"

"It was easy, they doubted but as Fausto said, some herds hate others and they were afraid I was an invader of other herd... they were equines but the base is the same, hairless apes. Complex and political beasts who overthink a lot. And the other?"

"Do we have to do this? And now?"

"You refused to be hypnotized, because you are very distrustful, the same as me. Just stop with your whining and show me the alpha that is inside of you! Don't worry, I came prepared in case something goes wrong"

The Rottweiler knocked at the door, the kangaroo situated at the back, assuming a role of a beta. The bear lived alone and he didn't have regular visitors. The bear opened the door and showed his chest as a good beast showing his strength. The Rottweiler gave a little step back because of the dominant posture of the ursine. The marsupial touched the back of the dog as if he was supporting the dog wordlessly.

"You took my chainsaw and brought down my fence. You'll pay the damage, I have the feeling you have no money but I have thought in some ways you'll start to pay for it"

Rottweiler Roody was trembling by inside but he hid very well his feelings, he somehow moved his tail slowly from left to right, showing confidence. The kangaroo was starting to feel the same sensation when he enslaves to someone.

"I don't know how you can come here to BLUFF and say I have no money, dumb mutt"

Inside of his mind, Roody was near to collapse and offer apologies; however, a little foreign feeling filled him, that feeling encouraged him to follow the plan. What was that plan? Simple! Taking aggressiveness smoothly, showing dominance, submitting the bear by the neck if needed. After, they will take things easy.

The dog doubted the bear would act as a dog because of the change of species, but the kangaroo convinced him to try.

"First, I will go inside and see for myself if you don't have my lawn mower." The Rottweiler got inside the house with the kangaroo. At the beginning the bear was confused, then he growled and stood in front of the dog again.

"Who said you can come here like that?! Take your boyfriend and get out of here!"

The tail of Roody stopped of moving. He stood and stared the face of the raged bear. The bear growled, the kangaroo smiled by seeing the bear didn't raised his hand paw, neither opened his mouth nor swelled his chest. The bear hybrid was acting more like a dog than a bear!

Roody moved slowly, the bear followed the dog and snarled more. The dog snarled to answer the aggression, he became more confident. The bear started to stress, he felt himself weird, as if he was losing a battle without fighting.

"I warn you, mutt!" The Bear growled more.

"Look Ethan, I can sense you. You cannot stop me, so, you have to clean the mess you have done. If you go to police and report this incident, you can respond with all you have done, I have a video camera in my garage" The Rottweiler lied. "I have videos of how you have been taking without permission all my stuffs... so"

"My name is DYLAN!" The Bear shouted and extended his right hand-paw to punch the dog; although the dog used his left hand-paw to sink his nails into the gut of the ursine. It wasn't painful but the bear distracted a moment and shocked. The dog pushed the bear and stood there. Rudolf showed his teeth, Dylan just saw him with confusion; then he moved his ears to the back and his little tail shacked a lot in sign of stress.

"Ok, Dylan. When will you start to clean the mess of my backyard?"

The bear felt humiliated, he knew he could crush the dog but he had company and those videos, Dylan had to clean the mess, later he would think in a way to deal with the dog.

###

The next day was Monday, Dylan promised he would clean after work, for an hour or two. He expected a moment to see Rudolf alone, but the kangaroo always was in the house while the dog went to work, and the Rottweiler used to came home before the bear.

The bear cleaned his own backyard days before, he cut the fallen tree with an axe and he got rid of all the logs and wood. As the other part of the tree was drying, it would be harder to use the axe... and as the bear had broken down the chainsaw.

When the bear arrived he didn't waste time and he got hands to work, however Roody expected him in case the bear simply jumped the fence. When he was about to cross, the dog made a sound of "SHHHH!"

"Now what, mutt?!"

"I have not given you permission to enter, doggo"

"I'm not a dog anymore!"

"Shhhh!" The Rottweiler raised a finger and the bear trembled a little. The bear snarled again, but this time, Roody stood firmly. 6 minutes passed, the kangaroo counted them while he was inside the house, just watching. The bear relaxed, once he surrendered, the dog let him getting into the backyard.

"Ok Daniel, It's evening, I'll get some lights on, so you can see better, do you want to hear music? What kind of music do you like? Or maybe you just want to connect your phone to a Bluetooth spea..."

"My name is DYLAN! And I brought my cellphone and free hands"

Dylan was tired and he didn't imagined he would be this exhausted. He cut the wood in a slow way. He tried to keep a rhythm, so, he would finish as soon as possible. The bear spent an half an hour to advance, when he rested, Roody brought him a couple of sandwiches. But when the bear extended his hand-paw, the dog sunk one of his fingers into the neck of the bear, not so aggressively to injure him, but not lightly to be unnoticed.

"Easy boy! Relax, sit and stay"

"Are you crazy? What's your plan, doggo?!"

"Easy boy! Relax, sit and stay"

The bear wanted to argue, he wanted to comply; although he was exhausted and mildly hungry. Dylan obeyed.

Rudolf gave him the dish with sandwiches and the bear eat them quickly. The dog rewarded the bear by rubbing his chin and his cheeks. Dylan was told he was a good boy. The bear thought it was bizarre, however he liked being praised and comforted. The hour flew, Dylan was disappointed because he didn't advanced as much as he liked. Rudolf the Rottweiler thought the same but he was happy because it would give him time enough to train the ursine.

The next day Roody the kangaroo opposed to the next maneuver of he Rottweiler. He said it was a big risk, maybe Dylan would get angry and stuffs, however if this worked, it will speed the process of training the new pup. The dog reconsidered it but thought in another step. When Dylan arrived, he, instead of jumping the fallen fence of the backyard, he knocked politely the door, however his ears were totally pointing at front, his standing was as if he tried to challenge the dog, but, his stare was more relaxed.

The bear carried his axe, or more accurately, the axe he borrowed from a friend.

"Ok, I'm here again... let's hurry with..."

"Shhh! Boy. I'm not pressuring you, I think we are cool and as to make you feel more comfortable, why don't you quit you paw blankets? I won't tell anybody, besides your home's there..."

"Just let me in and..."

"Easy boy" Roody snapped his fingers, the bear relaxed more and paid attention. "We're cool right here, look at my feet, and I think you will be cooler if you cut that tree while you touch the ground with your paw pads"

The bear thought about it, he tried to refuse but with the dog standing at the door, and he eager to rest, and maybe taste more sandwiches from the doggo. Dylan got rid of his paw blankets and folded the pair of fabrics to put them one side of the door.

"Nice! Now come in, let's see how much you can do this night"

It was strange because Dylan felt more tired, but he cut more parts of the fallen tree. When Roody, brought more sandwiches he saw how the bear was, he was afraid the ursine was over pushing his body. Once again Dylan was eager to taste the meal, and Roody corrected him and commanded him to sit and relax.

When Dylan finished, Roody told him he had to rest 2 days. When Dylan accepted the dog praised the bear and rubbed his cheeks and his belly. Dylan felt weird, but he liked it. He got back to his house, bare feet.

The next 2 days nothing important happened, Roody cleaned in his house after work, the bear didn't noticed the kangaroo was nowhere to be seen. The kangaroo made a brief travel to other dimension to bring something weird, maybe he wouldn't use it but as everything was boring.

Friday in the evening was supposed to be tavern time for Dylan, but he felt compromised to finish the job and to rest the weekend. When Dylan knocked at the door, he was bare feet, Roody raised an eyebrow and gave a warm smile, this time the bear showed himself submissive and waited patiently the time to enter the house. The dog let him in and rubbed one of his sides. The kangaroo hadn't arrived yet.

Dylan worked with more efficiency. When the sandwiches arrived he had around half of the work done. Once again the dog made that strange ritual to the bear and he took it cool. First, the bear finished his meal, then the Rottweiler did what the kangaroo told him to not, at least not yet. From his back he took an improvised set of homemade leather collar and leash, he collared the bear. Dylan panicked and asked the dog to quit it, the dog refused and instead he pulled the leash.

The bear snarled and barked, Roody once again stood and snarled back. When the bear extended his paw to give a punch, the dog pulled once more, the bear choked a little and snarled again. Roody pulled again, this time the bear tried to resist the pull, Roody threw himself and used the own force of the bear to fall over him. Both were on the floor, he snarled again, this time the bear was subdued and his ears moved to the back.

The dog knelt in front of the ursine, the bear lied on the floor, shocked. He could win a fight against the dog so easily, but something was clearly wrong, he didn't get what was happening.

"Stay ... stay... stay... GOOD BOY DYLAN! But, maybe you don't want to use your name when we play, maybe I, your alpha, think in a fine name for my good boy"

Roody rubbed the belly of the bear, he relaxed and received the pettings. Dylan felt as he had lost a fight, but somehow he felt relieved of something he didn't know yet.

Roody commanded to the bear to stay where he was, shut down the lights and graved the leash to go inside the house. The bear followed him with no question, on his 2 legs, hand paws at front, wrists and elbows folded; Dylan now looked like a dog begging on 2 feet. After an hour the bear got back to his house without the collar.

Next morning, the kangaroo and the dog were talking, the marsupial had arrived at midnight and he went straight to bedroom, he woke up with an unexplained good mood but when the Rottweiler gave the report of the last encounter with the bear...

"Did you do ... WHAT?"

"Relax Kanga-Roody! I took the chance and everything went fine!"

"You risked too much! He could have hurt you! Or worst. He could get what was going on, he could make a way to resist and get away!"

"... ... what?"

"Ok, you're very new at this. I forgive you"

"You... forgive me? Oh thanks! I wouldn't know how to live with your hate... oh multiverse traveler who I probably won't see again! "

"Hehehe ok, sometimes we're funny"

"You told me I need to listen my inner side and to let the alpha out... I did what you told me..."

"Ok, you're the dog here and it is good to learn, and to enjoy the control over others" Roody the kangaroo let escape some evil laughs, like a classic James Bond's villain. The Rottweiler just looked at him and inclined his head as a curious dog. "And what's the plan? When will your pup come?"

"He will come at noon, I think you can watch only hidden, or If you like, I can set a camera so you can analyze my moves"

"Sounds neat! And guess what... I brought some gifts for your pup there." The kangaroo pointed with his hand to a carton box on a table in the living room. "You'll open it only when you're sure you are the alpha and handler"

##

The bear knocked at the door at 12:00 pm, the kangaroo went to his room and the dog opened. Dylan was behaving more submissive, his snout was so low; it was touching the chest of the bear. He awaited until the dog let him in. This time he was wearing his paw blankets but as soon he was inside, he got rid of them and stood bare feet.

"Ok boy, you can start to work, you know the way. Just keep it cool, rest when you need to. Good boys listen to their alpha, don't they?"

The bear felt a weird sensation on his neck, alphas know best, don't they? The bear shuddered and nodded.

"Yes, alpha... I mean, yes Rudolf. I will work at a good pace"

"Good!" The dog hugged the bear and went to the kitchen.

The bear resumed his work. He cut more logs, he was doing a good job. The backyard now looked well. When the Rottweiler saw the bear, he was in the middle of his work, he approached the ursine in a predatory way. The bear didn't look tired, that didn't stop the dog to play again with his new friend.

"Good boy! You're doing very well. Now let's rest, does it sound good?"

"Sounds cool but I have to finish with this, I want to watch the football game tomorrow and..."

"It's cool! Even you can come to watch it here, I like football too. After the game, we can play a little, just like now" Roody collared the bear and attached the leash. The bear tried to resist but his body betrayed him. He lowered his ears and left the axe in the place where he was working.

"That's it, good boy! Now pup, come here I have to train you. You'll be a good dog"

The bear followed the dog, they got inside the house; the dog covered all windows with curtains so nobody would see what they were doing. Roody started by asking Dylan to go on 4 legs, he complied; then, the dog led the bear all around the first floor. Dylan was lost in his own thoughts while he was receiving orders and obeying them with no question. His mind was escaping from that awkward situation; however, his remnant dog genes were acting as if it was the right thing to do.

The mind of the bear became fuzzy, this experience was a relief of his own stress. Roody commanded the bear to bark, the 'pet' barked and wagged the little piece of tail he has. Then the Rottweiler showed the bear a tennis ball and squeezed it, the bear frowned but he couldn't stop staring at the ball. Roody played a little with the ball and threw it gently, the bear barked and as for instinct he went to catch it and took it by... his mouth!

The dog praised the bear and rubbed his cheeks, the dog fought a little with the bear for the ball, for instinct Roody snarled a little but he remembered the training with the kangaroo, he refrained his grunts and got the ball for throwing it again. They were playing like this for 30 to 40 minutes, the kangaroo was watching thanks to a hidden camera in the living room.

When both bear and dog stopped of playing, the bear lied his back on the floor, he was smiling with his feet and hands up. The dog-minded boy was expecting his reward for being a good boy, the real dog-man didn't get it so quick. Once he understood he rubbed the belly and the ribs of the bear and shared a good time. By this time, the only thing left was the new name of the bear.

"I got it! Your pet name is Docky, you like that, don't you?"

"Woof, woof!" The 'pet' accepted the name.

"Let's state the triggers. When I say: 'time to wake up Dylan' our game will finish, do you understand?"

"Woof!" Docky nodded and wagged his tail.

"And when I say: 'come here Docky', you'll become the good boy that you are, ok?"

"Woof!" Docky nodded and wagged his tail.

"Good boy!"

Next day in the morning, Roody the marsupial and Roody the canine were chatting in the kitchen, the kangaroo praised the dog for being such a good boy. The dog was wearing a pet collar and a tag with his name on it, however he felt a little uncomfortable but it didn't start any feeling of submission or belonging. The kangaroo was playing with another tennis ball; from time to time he just throw it above his head, other he just bounced it to a wall or on the table.

The Rottweiler male was struggling with his instincts, he wanted to play with the ball! But he remained quiet and cool. The Kangaroo smirked as if he was proud of training a dog to stop being a dog in this world where all people lived in denial and worried about prejudice and appearances. The marsupial knew sometimes it is needed to let go; however, even that feelings need control because some evil people could corrupt any nice stuffs.

"I want you to stay with us and watch the game"

"Are you sure, doggo? I feel he could be ashamed of his behavior"

"That's the point! I want to test an idea I had; but I want you to go out and come here at 12:30 or a little later, maybe you can go to the mart and bring some snacks!"

"*laughs a little* it would be fun doggo, and I'm eager to see that pup"

The kangaroo went out at 11:00; the bear appeared in the front door at 11:45 with the same submissive behavior. This time while the bear prepared to get inside the dog opened the box the kangaroo left for him, inside there was a strange mask of fake leather. It resembled a dog face. The sides of the snout and the 'eyebrows' were blue, the rest was black. There was a leather pet collar with the tag 'Docky'; the Dog shocked, he didn't talk with the kangaroo about that name; even he remembered Kanga-Roody had given him the box before the bear was submitted! Inside the box there were 3 more masks and 3 collars.

"Let's play Docky!" Roody shouted and the bear just frowned and looked the dog in a face that said 'cringe'. The dog gave himself a face palm for missing his trigger.

"You want to see the game, don't you?"

"Yup, but I want to watch the game with my pup, come here Docky"

The bear went on his 4 and approached Roody. He barked and sat on the floor like a feral dog. The Dog put the collar of Docky and the mask.

"Nice! Who's a good the boy?"

The bear barked and looked at the TV

"*laughs* sure thing! I promised it, and a good handler always reward his well-behaved dogs"

Roody turned on the TV and found the game, Packers at Cowboys. In this universe the Football was full of bears, wolfs, big dogs like Saint-Bernard, Mastiffs and some felines like tigers or lions. They didn't have the possibility of becoming bulls or rhinoceros. As they have lots of money, they were more than happy to change their species, even some teams paid the reconversion to their more promising rookie players.

Between ads the dog trained the bear, he asked the ursine to bring a beer, to stay, and many things. During the game they both were watching the TV. Roody Found that the bear was a Packers' fan, he just liked the sport and his favorite team, Steelers, rested that week. The sound of the door opening made the bear panic and sheer. The Kangaroo got inside and watched the dog and the bear.

"Come in! Roony." The dog changed the name of the kangaroo hopping the other could follow the trick. They were connected and the kangaroo seemed to understand. The bear stood on his 2 legs and watched the kangaroo reaction, he was so ashamed.

"Rudolf! Who's this good boy? He looks so friendly and fuzzy, can I pet him? Does he bite?"

"Oh no, he don't. He's a good boy, you can take your bags to the kitchen and come here to know him" The dog rubbed the checks of the bear and pated his back, the bear was shocked but followed the unsaid directions of his alpha. He got back to his role of a dog.

The kangaroo left the things he bought and went to the living room.

"Docky, this is my friend Roony. Give him your paw"

The bear was so nervous, so embarrassed, however he got back to his 'pet' role. Docky gave the kangaroo his left paw.

"No buddy, your other paw"

The bear again gave his wrong paw.

The kangaroo and the Rottweiler laughed a little, the dog insisted to the bear and the bear gave his right paw. Both Roody and 'Roony' said to the bear he was a good boy.

The three males watched the game together. When the Packers made a good play Docky barked or he got out of the role and celebrated. The Rottweiler and the kangaroo praised the dog and celebrated with him. Roody prepared plates of snack so they could eat. Roody placed the dish of Docky on the floor because he was a pet after all. The Packers won the game, Docky was happy and so absorbed into the role. He kept still into his role for 1 hour more, until Roody got him out of his trance and the bear went back to his house.

"I want to stay for more time but I have to go"

"OH! Sorry for that, you're free to come here. I thing you can track me with your futuristic gadgets"

"Actually yes, I have a gadget that analyze some quantic tracks and it is the one that set me on the pats of possible megalomaniac 'Rudolf Smith' people."

"Oh I see."

"Do you like the mask I gave to Docky?"

"Well, I like them but not on me. I wouldn't play the alpha or the dog stuff. Maybe I want to wear it but staying 'human', you know... like some dog handler, or some anonymous boy who wants to go out and scare people"

"I see, and, now I assume you're thinking in expanding the pack"

"Indeed! Maybe I get 2 or 3 more pups"

"Nice decision, I asked because here I found a dog who works with leather and rubber, he can make more things for you. I hypnotized him, so he will come here at Saturday in the afternoon and he will offer his services to you for free. "

"Woof! Sounds great! And how will I recognize him?"

"Well, besides of acting like a robot and doing exactly what you tell him? He's a mutt, he has genes of a Husky and a German shepherd. And I will leave you a task. Once you have total control of Docky, ask him to tell you what did happened once he went converted. I feel like there are some fishy things to the government, it is unusual that people on Twitter don't be so violent or aggressive here. In other dimensions even there are 'woke' people talking about changing politics or going to rebel acts and even terrorism. They are just mad people who wouldn't act the same in person; but still they show disagrees. The users here are more relaxed and even they are more willing to cooperate. It is strange some marsupials, tigers and lions I have meet are still behaving more like dogs than their new species"

"So, you want me dead?"

"Nope, unless you want to 'wake up' the mases. As I said, there are things that can be corrupted, for example you can start a tendency that can help you to conquer more weak minds. You can use what you learned to get more things and even get a better life, by behaving like an alpha. Just keep all things at low. If the government comes here, just act like a dog and let them think they got you. Just don't act like a hero and you'll be ok."

Then the kangaroo shut his interdimensional travel gun at the roof and jumped with all his strength. The dog just saw his pair disappearing.

Rudolf Smith the megalomaniac Rottweiler former human has many things to do, and too little time.
