"Maybe I'll change you back in a week or two," said a hairy naked young man who appeared over Chad as he lay helpless and shrinking on the field house floor.
Chad stared up with his unblinking eyes. He should know who this guy was. He looked familiar, but Chad couldn't place him. Then he recognized the dog collar around the man's neck.
When he was a kid Chad had a friend named Tommy or Tomtom. The kid's family was going to move away, and Chad and Tommy swore they would be best friends forever. Tommy then changed into a puppy. Chad took his puppy home, and Tommy's parents reported him missing to the police. Chad told everyone who would listen that Tommy wasn't gone, he had changed himself into his new puppy Tomtom. His parents let Chad keep the dog, but Chad spent a year in therapy until he realized that Tomtom couldn't really be Tommy. Damn, guess he was right, and Tommy was Tom-tom.
As Chad watched, the naked young man shrank into a golden retriever, and picked Chad up in his mouth. Chad was now his best friend's new chew toy. Ooh, payback was a bitch. Chad realized he had neglected Tomtom during football season, and even after it. He had discovered women, and was too old to play with dogs, he thought. Well, he'd be playing with Tomtom whether he wanted to or not - or rather Tom-tom would be playing with Chad.
