Chapter One: The life of a dog

I crawl on all fours like a animal next to my master. He had me on a leash like a dog.

Every now and then, he would pull it to hear me whine. That's all I could do. My knee's

begin to feel numb, I knew they were red. This leather get-up was way to tight,

it cuts circulation off my limbs. How I despise this man. He has no respect for me.

If I didn't know better I would kill him right here and now. But, I would meet a faith

worse then death if I did so.

As I crawl along with him I start to think to my self, 'Is this how my life will end?'

"My my, You seem to be tired." my master spoke out to me. I was starting to slow in

speed. "Would you like me to carry you?" He continued with a wink and smirk.

I tried to crawl faster, I did NOT by any means want to be carried by... HIM.

Im to scared he will rip out my tongue or something to. No... I need what I have left.

Some day I hope to leave away from him to go live a normal life, maybe find a doctor

to fix my eyes and vocal cord... But those are just hopes and dreams of mine. Im

still crawling my way to where we were heading.

When we finally reached our destination, he told me to go in the corner and rest.

I gladly took this opportunity to go and rest. I curled up to try and rest. Eventually, I

got tired and fell asleep.

When I awoke I was strangely hungry. I smelled my food near by. I soon found it and picked

it up to eat it. I knew my master wasn't present so, I picked up the bowl that read 'Kau' in

big letters and ate it. If my master were with me, I would eat it like a dog. If I didn't,

he would pick up the bowl and poor everything in it on my head. Then he would yell at me

and slap me. I have thought of suicide... But I am already low. I don't wish to go any further

down.

Suicide wasn't an option anyway. That would just show that im weak. I didn't want to

become weak. And I didn't intend to start now. All I could do was escape to my own little

world. In my world, HE would be no where to be found. There would be nothing but open

fields and ponds. Lots of trees to climb with cherry blossoms. That's my favorite part, the

cherry blossoms. I would sit under the tree and watch as the petals gracefully fall to the

ground. Well, I also had eyes and a voice in my world. But in real life, they were both gone.

But I did have some nice things in life. Like my imagination. Im still a human no matter what

kind of dog training I take.
