Buddy was stretched out on a table, his belly facing the ceiling. His entire world was upside down. Just then, he heard the vet walk in. Turning his head to see her, his eyes grew big when he saw the syringe in her gloved hands. "This might sting a little," the vet warned as she filled it with a sleeping sedative. Buddy began to panic. But it was too late to run as he felt a small sting and then his vision faded to blackness...

Waking up, Buddy realized with horror that he was in a dark room very similiar to the one he was currently sleeping in. Heart pounding, he backed up slowly, only to bump into something. Lifting his head, he met the red glowing eyes of a giant wolf. "Hello there," Scourge rasped. Buddy jumped away from him as he started laughing menacingly.

"You stay away from me freak!" Buddy shouted, holding his paws up in small fists. He had no idea how to fight but it wouldn't hurt to at least try. However, Scourge showed no signs of aggression as he sat down and began licked one of his big paws. "Relax, I have a message for you," he reassured the dachshund. Still on edge, Buddy asked, "And what would that be?"

Smiling, Scourge whispered, "Boo."

Yelping in fear, Buddy woke up way before the sedative was supposed to wear off. He stumbled around though, his limps still asleep. Rolling off the table, the dachshund accidently landed on a bunch of sharp equipment, one knife imbedded deep into his chest...
