I have recovered from that last....ahem, anyhow this part shows you people of my first "pet" experience. And let me say.....I didn't deserve it at all......I also want to note that this IS NOT SEAN'S STORY. This is from my experience.

A China Conflict

I laid there motionless in the box. I was yet again trapped in a place with no protection at all. Isn't it enough that I lost the only power that doesn't work in this world! Now, I cannot even move! I was helpless...

Randall:.......

I stayed there, my eyes in tears for what two humans could do to me....there might be even more than two of them.

Randall: ( I will kill Sullivan for this!)

There I was now. Stuck inside a crate, motionless and unaware of what would happen next to me. I didn't even know where I was.....

Randall:.....Huh?

For some reason, I could hear more voices. Allot more voices. Then I found my "crate" being lifted. Without moving I looked through a small crack in the crates exterior.

Randall: ( Oh my god!)

Outside was a whole ton of humans! Crowds!

Randall: Ehh!

With how I am, I could get killed!

Randall: (Don't let me out! Please don't release me into that crowd!)

I wanted to get out, but I couldn't now! Pleading to be set free was something I never got.....even from Sullivan...

Randall:........!

I listened to hear a voice near me.

Voice: What do I bid for this sea creature captured at Japan's Pacific Ocean!

Randall: (Sea creature!?....Bid?.....!!!!!!)

I was being sold! Those incompetent humans! They were going to money me off!

Voice: I bid 2,000 yen!

Voice: 3,000!

Voice: 4,500!

Randall: (I cannot be sold! I have rights as well!)

Voice: 4,500 going once!

Voice: Going twice...

Voice: 6,000!

Voice: He bids 6,000!

Voice: Going once....

Voice: Twice....

Voice: Sold! To the man with the brown hat for 6,000!

Randall: ( 6,000!? If I was worth something to these people, I would be a heck of allot more than that!!!)

Suddenly I found myself being carried again. To the sides of my crate, I could hear very loud voices. I was going through a crowd of humans! Then and there, I was lucky to not be seen. I found myself being lifted once more, then back down to the normal elevation.

Voice: This will scare off those dang hoodlums coming at my door!

I wasn't going to like this at all.....

*

I was set into a car and was driven off once more. Then was stopped. I peeked through the hole to see that I was in a rundown house. I could feel that this human was heading up some stairs, then I heard a door close, and then my "Transport" was dropped to the floor.

Randall: Ow!

Then I saw a crowbar stick into the top of the crate, then it was lifted off. It was then I could finally see the buyer. He was tall, had green eyes, a brown hat, black hair, and some kind of gray suit.

Buyer: So this is what I spent my money for!?

He placed his hand into the box. I wanted to chomp his hand off, but he grabbed my fronds as hard as that kid did......and lifted me out of the box.

Randall: OW! EHH! ARGH!

He dropped me onto the floor and kicked the box into a corner. recovering from the pain of that grab, I used my eyes at that point to see that I was in a room with two windows, ragged blue wall paper, a desk with ink pens, and a closet and bed which would be of no use to me. I still couldn't move.

Buyer: Hmph....

He crouched down near my face then grabbed my fronds again, and lifted my head so it would be at eye level at his.

Buyer: You better do what they told me you would!

He slammed my head into the wooden floor as I whelped in pain once more. The human then grabbed my neck and threw me into a metal cage that was beside the desk. The impact of my head and the metal back nearly knocked me out, but it just hurt allot....and I mean allot. The human locked the cage then just exited without even taking another look at me.

Randall: Ehh! Human! You'll die after this! Ehh!

I found my head bleeding again, this time it was my fronds. I was a little lucky that my back didn't....fully stop me from using my top arms. So I raised my left one up slowly and touched my fronds.

Randall: ARGH!

They were not only bleeding, but if I even touched them it would burn!

Randall: Err! They'll all pay for this! When I find that kid I'll!....I'll!...

I was unsure if I really was going to make it back home...I'm alone here....Surrounded by humans.

Randall: Sullivan just chucked me through anywhere he'd liked!

I could finally, not though it was strange to me, speak to myself with the human gone. I was the only person I could relate too....

Randall: (Sigh).....I need to get out of h...

(CRRRKKK!)

I could hear the door opened. I turned my neck to see who it was.

Randall: Ehh!

I could recognize anyone's face. This was one of the kids I scared about a year ago! Here name was....um...let me think....Lialin. She looked about 10....Oh....great! This kid was scared of me, but who knows what she could.....

Randall: (Gulp)

Lialin: So daddy did buy me a pet!

Randall: (A pet!?)

Lialin: Wait a minute....I know who you are!

Randall: (Oh no....)

Lialin: Your that monster that scared me when I was a kid!

Randall: (Oh boy...)

Lialin: I knew I'd see you!

She unlocked the cage, then pulled me out by my tail!

Randall: OW!

Lialin: Your going to pay for scareing me!

She went over to the desk and pulled out a bat.

Randall: ( Don't please don't do that!)

She came over, and without hesitation, started pummeling at my tail with the bat.

Randall: AAAAAAARRRGGGGHH!!!!!

It hurt more than anything I had so far! My tail was could grasp anything but it couldn't take the abuse from a bat's force! Why did she have to do that! First my head now my innocent tail?!

Randall: AAAHHH! EEHHH!

I couldn't do anything! She stopped pummeling my tail after about 10 minutes, which was now crinkled and red like if it was ran over a burning hot wheel of a car! She then came over to my head, I was still whelping in pain.

Lialin: That was for making me loose my friends because I told them I was being scared by you!

Lialin: And this...!

She held the bat up.

Lialin: Is for...!

Voice: Lialin!

She lowered the bat, I was thankful for that voice.

Voice: Dinner!

She looked at me. I was still in as much pain equal to that of Sullivan hitting me in the head 60 times!

Lialin: I'll take care of you later!

She dragged me into the cage and closed it, then disappeared out of the room, leaving me in pain.

Randall: Argh!

My tail was pounding with pain! I don't believe I was beaten again by one of my kids!

Randall: They'll pay for hurting my tail!

I always considered my tail as one of my friends, it can do many things for me such as getting that water bottle for me without detection.

Randall: At least....ehh...she didn't pound my back!
I had to admit....my back was actually feeling better! If it would recover, I could get out of here! I couldn't survive more beatings like that!

Randall: I need to get out of here!

I couldn't at that point move...So I waited...The kid came up once and started to pound on my feet and hands, the pain was so immense.

[ I really don't want to remember my limbs being smashed.....]

Hours seemed to pass, and that kid didn't come up to give me a beating. I could feel that my top limbs were getting better, but then came that time........

(CRRRRCCKK)

Randall:!!!!!!

Lialin stepped in!

Lialin: Now that schools over I can teach you that lesson!

She opened up the cage and pulled me out again. She grabbed that bat again.

Lialin: This is for that summer school that I'm taking!

Randall: (Gulp)

She aimed the tip of the bat at my head.

Lialin: One!

Lialin: Two!

Lialin: Three!

I was ready for her now, the little brat!

( Swap!)

Lialin: What!

I grabbed the bat with my top right hand and pulled my body back up to my normal four feet.

Lialin: Wait! You could even m....!

I tossed the bat out of her hands, my back was hurting but I could finally move! To so respect for all she done for me, I gripped her arms with my hands tightly.

Randall: You owe me a scream kid!

Lialin: AAAAAAHHHHHHH!

Randall: (Laughing!)

I got her good! That was the loudest scream she ever did! Ha!

I dropped her to the floor and headed to the door. She was still groveling on the floor.

Randall: See ya kid!

I opened the door. That's when I understood what that human meant by hoodlums coming into his house. He wanted me to be bait for a thief!!

Randall:!!!!

Right in front of me was a human in black clothing.

Human:!!!!

Soon, I don't remember how....but I fell to the ground, blacked out, unaware of my current situation......

Ehh....I could remember that kid taking whacks at my poor innocent tail! And my arms and legs too! When I find that kid I'm going to throttle her! Jeez....I need to take a break for a while. You all could understand that remembering this is hard, and painful.....
