Ahhhhh, screw it.....I'll just pretend I never saw anything weird instead, save myself from a whole bunch of trouble. I thought, face-pawing myself.
The absence of a soft and fluffy feeling of my paw-pads and fur made me look down questioningly at my paw-err, hands?!?!?! Why the f*ck do I have hands?????? OH crap Eva, I'm sorry for swearing!!! But seriously, I'm an adorable white-furred Samoyed dog, aren't I? Then why do I have human hands?!!!?
Having a bad feeling, I quickly checked the rest of my body.
My cute, big tail was gone! GONE! Only to be replaced by a lizard-like, no, it's definitely a dragon-like tail that was covered in rough, pure black scales.
What? Have issues with my assessment of my new depressing dragon tail? It's definitely a majestic dragon tail I tell you.
Ahhhhhh....but even so...it's still way inferior to my old fluffy white tail. *sigh*
Wait. If I had a dragon tail........doesn't that mean I'm also a lizar- ahem, dragon?!?
Ai, what a disaster.....afterall, don't humans like to capture rare and valuable things? Tsk tsk tsk, so shameless......
But of course, Eva is an exception!
Putting aside my endless sorrow from the replacement of my old tail, I started inspecting my strangely black nails and toenails that tapered into points.
Wondering how sharp they were, I stabbed a nearby swirly tree on the trunk.
c-crack!
And the abused tree with the honour of being my test subject fell sorrily to the ground after my hands had punctured the trunk directly.
I gawked at my lethal weapon of a hand in awe and horror......looks like I'll have to be really careful when I scratch an itch........
But still, for this new body of mine to have so much strength is unreal. How old am I here now anyway?
After some consideration, I decided that I could look for water to use as a mirror so I can look at my new face. Or in coarser words, I "wanna take a look at my new ugly mug." Kekekeke
I could also use the water to guess how old I was by judging my face. And so, I sincerely prayed to any passing by kindred spirit or god, hoping my face wouldn't be too horrifying to look at.
But I never really believed in all this supernatural stuff anyway, so I immersed myself in tilting my head left and right to see if I could hear any sound of rushing water.
This story originates from Royal Road. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.
Now that I was actually paying attention to sound, I finally noticed that there was no sound of any other living being except for me. There were suddenly no sounds of the rabbits or any sound that a normal forest would have. But then again, this forest is super weird so I guess anything could happen. Who knows if they actually have normal animals? They could all be three-eyed like that rabbit from before! I could just totally imagine them with hidden power, suddenly springing up to catch you in the face!
*cough* Well, nevermind that. Best to go back to trying to listen for water using my awesomely superb hearing!
Still....this is really eerie to hear no sound except for myself... I thought mentally.
I suddenly heard the noise of a few droplets of water trickling to my left, so I followed the sound and started hurriedly walking with a nervous grin plastered on my face.
It turned out it was a stream not too far from where I woke up. But heck, this forest definitely shouldn't be from Earth, I mean, even the water has serious issues, like how it was a suspiciously ambiguous yellow colour.........it wouldn't be that right? Haha...there's no way, definitely not.
Well, either way, I'm not going to be drinking from it so what's the harm? I thought, trying to reassure myself.
I peered into the yellow water only to see an unfamiliar looking face. It looked alien....nothing familiar to my old appearance, except for maybe the narrowed and wolfish eyes.
Nothing else retained any semblance to my fluffy-moe filled face from before.
Though the shape of the eyes were similiar, there were still large differences. Like how the whites were completely black just like my tail and nails, and the pupils sported the look of a dragon. To be more precise, the look of a cold-blooded creature.
I was thankful to at least see a little bit of my old self in my bright, sky blue pupils, the eyes that Eva had loved so much before, even when my eyes were born with a seemingly dangerous glaring demeanour.
Thinking about how Eva would be alone and with no one to take care of her brought tears to my naturally glaring eyes. I shook my head as if to forget, but I knew I would remember my previous owner for as long as I live. For her, she who raised me, and taught me wholeheartedly and gave me love, I will live as freely and as happily as I could muster.
Forcing myself away from that train of thought, I focused on the rest of my new body. Shockingly, it seemed to be about the age of a 6-year-old child. I nearly cried with injustice me, an elderly and wizened lady got turned into a brat again?! (she is elderly for a dog)
I gave myself an awkward smile through the reflection, what reflected back was a child's pale glaring face with traces of intelligence beyond her years. I tugged at my lips, revealing gleaming, obsidian coloured black shark teeth.
No longer shocked by everything I saw, I only smile wryly and decided not to test my teeth or horn which for sure are definitely razor-sharp.
Oh right. Did I mention I had a horn now? And that I had snowy white hair? Well, the white hair part wasn't much of a surprise as I always have had white fur. But the horn.......it stuck out from the right side of my temple, curving slightly upwards. It too was jet black and although the length was about as long as my middle finger, the sharpness of the tip was no joke. Basically, I'm most-likely this half-breed or human form monster from an all-powerful demonic liz- dragon bloodline and was cast out because one of my parents were probably a human. Thus, making me, a half-breed.
Wow, I should really be a writer, look how I thought up a weird and meaningless backstory for myself. Hahahahaha.
Speaking of weird, how do I get out of this strange as heck forest?
