a w o o --- a short story, by slipstream/RoL for blender 2017!
Awooooooooooooooooo!
Dave looked up from his campfire, at the full moon, wondering what he just
heard.
Dismissing it as nothing, he went back to his task. He was making some food,
smartphone in one hand, so he could consult the recipe on it. Sure, he was
camping, but it wasnt like he didnt have mobile signal. He was only cooking
something pretty simple, as he didnt want to spend too much time on it.
And then Dave heard the noise again. Louder this time. Awooooooooooooo!
Dave gasped as he saw some kind of a wolf bound out of the entrance to a
forest near his camping spot, and rush towards him. His first instinct was,
naturally, to run.
So he did in the other direction of course, smartphone in one hand, the
other hand holding his saucepan by the lid.
As he ran, the wolf followed, and as it howled, more and more wolves showed
up.
Dave swung his saucepan at any wolves who got close enough, but for each one he
toppled, another one joined the race.
He kept running, and as he was starting to run out of energy, his smartphone
in his hand pinged. He half-read the notification as he ran.
EMERGENCY ALERT, it read.
INFECTED WOLF OUTBREAK, WOLVES SPREAD FATAL DISEASE.
STAY INDOORS. LOCK YOUR DOORS.
STAY AWAY FROM WOLVES.
Dave knew he wouldnt be able to keep running. He was slowing down, his
saucepan was getting colder and wouldnt have as much effect too.
The food that was in it had fallen out at some point too, so he didnt even
have that.
Dave got slower.
Slower, and slower.
And finally, succumbed to the wolves.
Each scratch and bite made him transform further.
He grew snout, and ears, and tail. Fur spawned on him.
He wasnt a furry. He didnt know any furries. He, however, knew what a furry
was. He had trolled his children often by claiming they were furries publicly,
in front of their friends.
And now he was turning into... no, not a furry. He was turning into a wolf.
A very specific type of wolf at that. It was the full moon, after all.
Dave finally stood up on his paws, shook himself off, and started to run with
his pack.
And as he ran, on a mission to transform the entire world, he howled happily.
Awooooooooooooo....
