Chapter 1

"Dorian!" Little Dorian looked up. It was easy to see through the bars of his cage, but he had to squint through his tears. He could see his parents. His father had his back to Dorian, looking over his shoulder at him as he was being carted away. His father was also restraining his mother. "Dorian!" she cried again, arm outstretched to reach her son.

"Mom! Mom, Where are they taking me?" Dorian started crying harder. The carriage went around a corner and he could no longer see his mom. He looked at his surroundings. It just looked like bags of animal feed and boxes of canned goods. Dorian decided he was alone, so he backed into a corner and cried the hardest he'd ever cried. He eventually cried himself to sleep.
