"What are you doing girl?"
"Bad dog!"
With that your old body grabs you by the collar.
Quickly you try to pull free, Spike in your old body stumbles and hits the power button and the machine shuts down.
No, you try and scream, but a yip comes out.
"Kyle will have to throw this weird garbage away before somebody gets hurt!" She tightens her hold on your collar and drags you outside. "I don't know what has gotten into you Spikie."
You tug and pull the whole way out the door. 'I am not getting stuck in the body,' you try to say but all that comes out are a series of barks.
"Come on Spike...." your old body pleads as she yanks on your collar for all she's worth. Frustration sweeps over your old bodies face, then as if a light has suddenly come on she lets go and says, "O.K., Lets go for a ride,"
'RIDE!!!!!' A wave of excitement sweeps your body as you dart out the door and go running toward the pickup. You find yourself running around in circles around the truck, until you hear a loud creaking noise as the wind catches the shed door and blows it shut.
Depression hits you and you begin to whimper as you stare at the door.
A hand pats you on the head, "Don't worry girl, I promised you a ride and we'll take one." You see keys dangling in front of you and you start jumping up and down with excitement.
"After our ride I have to take a nap, I have a headache and I don't feel like myself." Liz says as she scruffs up the fur on the back of your neck.
Soon you both are cruising down the road, you stick your head out the window and feel the wind in your face, your tongue flapping in the breeze. Liz runs a series of errands around town. It's as if she doesn't even realize the switch has taken place.
Upon the return home you and your old self sit down on the bench swing on the front porch. You rest you head in Liz's lap as she reads and pets you.
As you drift off to sleep you are overwhelmed by the smells and fragrances in the air. It is unbelievable. You dream about playing ball with kids, chasing rabbits and other small animals.
