So the pictures of the characters' dog forms are posted on my profile. Just click on the link.
Disclaimer: I don't own Glee. All I own is the plot.
Something wasn't right at McKinley. Maybe it was the fact that nobody had ever seen this girl before, yet she knew everybody by name. Maybe it was the fact that this girl dressed in clothes that looked like they belonged in the old Shakespearean days. She wore a tight, black corset with an equally black skirt. Over her shoulders, she wore a hooded cape… yes a cape. This made her bright blonde hair pop against the dark color. Nobody really knew what was wrong but something was defiantly weird about her. All they knew was she called herself by the name Anita Goodwill; sort of ironic considering she put off a bad vive.
Everybody seemed to be waiting for something… anything to happen. The girl was strange. She seemed totally comfortable at the school; like she had been attending it for years. Something about her was off though. Sometimes the things she said… it made her sound ancient. In World History, she talked about the horrors of the blood shed in the Civil War. She described it so thoroughly it was almost impossible to believe she was only their age. Still people waited though. Nothing truly eventful happened; other than her rant on the war.
That is until Glee Club.
The typical things were happening. Santana, Britney, and Quinn were gossiping in the corner. Artie, Tina, Kurt, Mike, and Mercedes were doing runs. Puck was chatting with Sam about Mario Kart and Rachel and Finn were fighting.
"It's simple Finn. It's a high B. I've heard you hit it before! Just do it!" Rachel exclaimed, clearly fluster.
"Well maybe if you would stop being a perfectionist we'd be a better group. Instead you're always on our asses and it's pissing us off!" Finn yelled back.
Rachel rolled her eyes. "If I don't push, you won't do it." She glared at the taller boy. Neither backed down from their defensive stance, trying to intimidate each other
Mr. Shuster walked in and took in the sight in front of him.
"Well you don't always have to be a bitch about it!" He exclaimed and then he realized his mistake. Her tiny form was shaking. She lunged at Finn and began to pound at his chest. Mr. Shuster intervened then.
"Hey, hey, hey! Knock it off you two!" He grabbed Rachel around the waist and dragged her away from Finn. He put her back on her feet and stood between the two teens. "Now you two used to be best friends, even if you weren't dating. You're acting like children. What is going on?" The man asked, frustrated.
"She's being a controlist!" Finn exclaimed.
Rachel made a noise of protest, stomped her foot a bit and said, "He's being difficult" and under her breath she added, "controlist isn't a word."
"Well you both need to grow up and figure this out!" Quieter he said to them, "you two are my leads. You need to be roll models for this group. You're acting like animals with all the fighting over nothing," he said.
Something very strange happened then. A strong wind blew threw the room and every one closed their eyes against it. The temperature dropped suddenly and a strange feeling entered the room. It wasn't good. It wasn't bad. It radiated power though.
When the wind stopped, everyone opened their eyes and looked to the doorway and in it stood the new girl. She leaned against the door frame, looking at her nails. She wore a smug expression on her face.
Mr. Shuster was the first to recover from the shock of seeing a new person in the room. He cleared his throat and spoke, "Can I help you?"
The girl looked at him. She had a devilish look on her face and when she spoke they cringed at her voice; it to radiated power. "No."
Rachel got frustrated. "Well if you're not here for anything perhaps you would be interested in auditioning. Trust me, swaying in the back round behind me while I sing a solo-" Rachel was cut off.
"Can it, Man Hands. You are the most annoying being on the planet. Seriously, have you considered getting sterilized?" Quinn asked.
"RaPual, maybe if you shut up for more than four seconds, you would realize that nobody likes you!" Santana exclaimed.
"Oh, you're one to talk! You act like a slut and make fun of everyone," Tina said crossing her arms.
"Let's be fair now. You lied about your stutter to everyone in this club. You aren't innocent either," Artie said.
As arguments broke out and people started screaming, the girl watched from her position on the doorframe. Mr. Shuster scrambled to try to get control over the class. He tried to separate a screeching Rachel from Santana while calming down Tina and Artie.
The girl had finally had enough. "SILENCE!" She yelled. Instantly all attention was on her. She straightened up and began to walk towards them while a smug expression. This is why she was here.
Slowly the group began to back away from her, the power she was radiating enough to strike fear into their hearts. Something was off about her only now it was more obvious. Her eyes glowed an unnatural shade of blue. Literally, they glow.
"Now what is all this yelling going to accomplish? You all need a lesson in team work," she said as she stalked towards them. Mr. Shuster stood in front of the kids trying to defend them.
"Look, if you're a counselor how about you tell us what to do," Sam advised as he tried to keep the peace.
"Look white girl, tell us you're name. We don't even know you," Mercedes said. Kurt looked at her. The clothing and the eyes were all so familiar. Then it hit him and his eyes widened. "It can't be," he whispered.
The girl smirked. "Very good, Kurt. You figured it out didn't you? You always were a clever one," she said. Then she turned to address the whole group. "I am Anita Goodwill; contorter of forms and voice of reason," she said and she raised her hand. A blue energy filled it and she tossed it from one hand to another.
The group was backed in a corner. Quinn had tears in her eyes as she wondered what would happen to herself. Britney was looking at the blue ball with inertest. "What does that do?" She asked innocently. She didn't understand why the boys had forced themselves in front of the girls.
Anita grinned devilishly. "How about I demonstrate for you," she said. Before anyone answered, she took the ball of energy and threw it at Shuster. He blocked his students but the ball passed into him.
Something strange began to happen. He felt his organs shifting and his bones reconstructing themselves. He shook his head and tried to speak but it came out funny. "Rhat are roo rying to ro to re?" The simple question of 'what are you trying to do to me', turned into a barking sound and he soon found that he could no longer form English words. He felt something erupt along his arms and when he looked down, dark and curly fur had covered his whole body. As his face contorted and his spine extended, he realized what had just happened. He was now a dog.
Anita smiled at her handy work. "A very handsome Airedale Terrier if I do say so myself." She waved her hand and Mr. Shuster's feet left the ground. He now found himself in a cage. He scratched at metal door and whimpered. He tried to say "Leave those kids alone!" but it came out as a series of barks and yips.
The kids quaked in fear. The large cage had appeared out of nowhere. It was a typical crate build except that it was huge; large enough to hold several full grown St. Bernards. It had a door in the front that swung open and it had another on the top so you could add food and water without the dog running out. The scariest part was seeing their teacher looking at them in the form of a dog.
Anita laughed. It was a dark sound and the kids crowded closer to each other. "Now to deal with the rest of you. You should be puppies. Closer to your development group, she cackled. They had pulled Artie back with them and Anita's eyes fell on him. "I suppose I'll do you a kindness," she said. She conjured another energy ball and it began to float towards Artie. He tried to lean away from the ball but it still entered his body. He felt his body shrivel and shrink. It contorted and he tried to scream yet it came out in a howl. When he felt his body settle he blinked and looked around.
Anita walked forward and picked him up by the scruff of his neck. Artie whimpered and tried to wiggle away. Then he froze. He could wiggle… his legs were working. "I see you realize that you can move, even if you are an Ibizan. Consider it a gift," she said and she opened the top of the crate. Mr. Shuster saw what was coming and was able to catch Artie as he fell from the hand that held him. He put the pup version of Artie down and tried to watch the outcome of the situation.
Throughout all of this, Britney watched with tears in her eyes. Santana quickly grabbed her hand and Sam's. "We need to get out of here," she whispered to Britney. "But what about Artie," Britney whispered as Santana began to pull her. "We'll save him but right now we need to get away," Sam whispered and then he, Santana, and Britney crept away from the group and raced for the door.
Anita seemed to be a step ahead of them though and she shot blue energy at the door. A shimmer ran down the length of the wall and the group of three hit the ground. Sam was the first up and he tried banging on the door. "What the hell! It's like a wall!" He exclaimed. Anita smirked and held up her hands. Three big bursts of energy erupted from them. They raced over to the teens and the changes began instantly. Britney began to sprout black fur over her body. Sam's ears began to travel up his head and they became pointed. Santana shrunk and grew a snout. Britney finished first and in her place sat a small Labrador. Santana bared her small fangs and Sam stood on shaky paws.
Anita smiled. "A Doberman seems fitting but I didn't expect the blonde young man to be an Australian Kelpie. She picked up Santana and Sam and dropped them into the cage one at a time. Mr. Shuster caught them both and set them on the ground. He hated biting their necks. He felt especially guilty when the girl dropped Britney and he caught her. She started to whimper in pain and he put her down. He yipped and strangely the members who were canines understood him. He had said, "I'm so sorry, Britney."
Anita was moving along quickly. She saw Puck shaking with anger. "What's wrong, Puckerman? Afraid are you?" She asked. He let out a shuttered breathe. "Why are you doing this? We aren't animals!" He could barely contain his rage. "Watch your tone. I have the power here. Now who's next," her eyes swept over the group and landed on Tina. "I think you would make a nice little Yorkie, Tina." Mike stepped in front of her. "Don't you touch her. Let the rest of the girls go. Change back Brit and Santana. Keep us guys but don't hurt the girls," he pleaded.
"Sorry Michael but your chivalry will not pay off here. Your group needs to be taught a lesson," Anita said. She raised her hand and flicked her finger. Mike fell to his knees as it passed through him and in to Tina. There bodies shifted and within a minute, they to were in their new forms. Anita frowned in sadness. "I thought you would be a Yorkie Tina. I never thought you would be an Akita. Michael you make a very cute Boxer though," she picked them up and dropped them in the cage
Now half was in the crate and the remaining members were huddling together. Finn was holding Quinn as she watched in horror. Kurt, Rachel and Mercedes were all near tears. Puck was shaking in rage. Kurt swallowed and spoke. "Excuse me Anita. My fellow diva, Mercedes, and I would like to offer a treaty. We can go to the mall and give you a fashionable look. Just let us go," Kurt tried to reason.
Anita was amused by this. It was always funny when they begged. "Thanks but no thanks Kurt. I'm having too much fun." With that two balls of light soared through the air and hit the teens. As they transformed, Rachel put her hand over her mouth and sobbed. She backed away slightly but kept her eyes as Kurt and Mercedes changed into puppies. Mercedes sprouted spots as Kurt became snow white.
"You're hair is always perfect Kurt. An American Eskimo is fitting for you, but I am confused as to why Mercedes is a Dalmatian," Anita said as she picked them both up. Once they were deposited in the cage, she looked at her captives. The glee kids were all crowding towards the back of the cage in fear. As for Mr. Shuster, he had a look of despair in his eyes as he looked at his students.
Puck could no longer contain his anger. He tried to get at the blonde but she through an energy ball at the same time. Rachel had already raced to push him back and the ball hit her in the back. It sent her spiraling into the wall and she whimpered. Puck and Finn knelt beside her but the transformation was underway. Her ears were folding over and her moans of pain were beginning to turn into a whimper. Soon a small puppy was lying in a heap on the ground. Finn gently ran a finger along her puppy brow and she whimpered. He picked her up and handed her to Quinn who held her close to her chest like a teddy. Finn wrapped an arm around Quinn and together they watched her as she withered in pain.
Noah's breath grew harsher. He turned around and glared at the girl standing with a smirk. "Change them back. Now!" He demanded. Anita stepped forward and snatched Rachel out of Quinn's hands. She examined Rachel's body and ticked her tongue.
"She's lucky. No serious damage was done. Still she's a cute little Australian Shepard." With that, she flicked her hand and a blue light appeared under Rachel and carried her puppy form into the cage. It dropped her in and Mr. Shuster gently caught her. He laid her down on the ground and gently nudged her.
"Rachel? Rachel, are you okay?" He asked her. She simply whimpered in response. Kurt waddled over to her and licked her temple. She let out a groan in response. "It hurts…" she said. "I know darling," Kurt said to her and lay down next to her.
Puck looked livid but Finn was holding him back now. Anita smirked. "And then there were three. Who's next?" She scanned them with a predatory look. She sighed. "It's so hard to choose. I'll just start on the ends and work my way in," she said and threw a ball at Puck.
He howled in pain as in blasted him like it had Rachel but his landing wasn't as hard. His face contorted and he grew a long tail. Soon a little brown and black dog sat in his place. "German Shepard is fitting for you Puckerman," Anita said as she lifted him by his scruff. He snapped at her and she grinned. She dropped him into the cage.
"Down to the final two. Let's wrap this up," Anita said as she conjured two energy balls. Finn and Quinn held each other as a ball passed into them. Finn began to shrink rapidly as Quinn's golden hair shortened slightly and sprouted similar hairs all over her body.
"I knew I was right on these too. A Great Dane and a Golden Retriever was fitting. Now let's get you two with your friends." She grabbed them by the middle and dropped Finn and then Quinn. She closed the top and bolted it shut. She waved her hand and smirked at them. "Now aren't you all adorable," She said with a smirk.
Mr. Shuster bared his teeth. "Let us go!" He demanded.
"But if I do that, you wouldn't have learned you lesson," she said. Silence filled the room for a moment. Quinn then asked "Can you understand us?" Anita just smiled and nodded. "What are you?" Sam asked as he came towards the group. They were crowding together again. Mr. Shuster put his paws over the kids so he stood over them protectively.
Anita smiled. "Is it not obvious? I'm a witch," she said. The group shivered as a cold wind swept through it.
"So why are you bothering us? Leave us alone," Mercedes barked out. Anita got a sad look in her eyes. "I can't do that until you learn to act like a group. This is what killed my family. They fought over everything," she took a breath, "Hundreds of years ago, when our kingdom was destroyed, they were fighting over who should lead the army! They all thought they each held the superior power; the one that would lead to the enemy's demise. The enemy struck when we had no leader. My family didn't learn. Perhaps yours will from this… we'll call it an exercise. When you function and become a true family, your human forms shall be restored.' Anita smiled. "Now let's get this show on the road."
She flicked her hand and the cage lifted off the ground. The club fell over each other as it shifted and they tried to stay upright. As Anita walked out of the choir room, the cage followed her. The kids whimpered as they watched their choir room disappear. They were being taken to a strange place in unfamiliar bodies. Who knows what was lying ahead. One thing was for sure. This was going to be a long, hard journey.
