“Well I don’t think we can let your outrageous behaviour go unpunished.”
Jenkins pretended to be angry with the feisty officer even though he had done him a massive favour by transforming his former boss. Now that he was in charge he could realise his vision for the future of the stables. But first he had to deal with these two troublemakers.
As Jenkins thought up a fitting punishment, the male officer struggled to say something before Jenkins removed the rag from his mouth. “Please, I'm sorry for what I did but how was I to know that would happen?” He motioned to the frisky stallion that impatiently paced up and down, eager to get at the mares in the next room. “That could’ve been me for Christ’s sake! Now you seem a bit more reasonable than that crazy bitch so I’m asking you to let us both go and we won’t say a word.”
“Let you go? Ha! I know you won't keep your mouth shut. But, we can make a deal. One of you is going to stay here as a hostage while the other convinces the police department to stay away from here. If you don't cooperate, well, you'll meet a destiny worse than death.”
“But, you can’t.” he said motioning to his colleague who had started to cry. “Alright, let her go. I will stay.”
“Good, if you keep your word I'm going to keep mine. And because I'm not a complete monster, I'm going to keep your mind intact, unlike my poor boss. That will make it more humiliating when you breed with our mares.”
Both officers started to panic as it was becoming obvious that Jenkins was just as deranged as his predecessor. Jenkins ignored their fearful looks as he continued. “Before we get started let’s see who we’ve got here.” Jenkins casually flicked through the pair’s confiscated belongings. “Let’s see… Officer Mark Nelson and… Officer Georgina Edwards.” He crouched down to examine officer Mark closely. “Hmmm… fit, strong, virile, yes I think you’ll make fine equine stock.”
Officer Mark grew increasingly terrified as he listened to this psychopath whilst remembering what had happened to the stablewoman earlier. Officer Georgina was sobbing as she imagined his partner being turned into a beast like the unfortunate female attendant. She has secretly loved him for years and this was more painful to her than he imagined.
“Now let’s begin.” With that, Jenkins carefully injected Mark with a large dose of equine serum. The startled officer cried out in both pain and panic as the serum ran through his body. Meanwhile officer Georgina sobs became a torrent of tears as her colleague was doomed to his new fate. Her crying only grew more intense as she saw tears starting to come out from Mark's eyes.
Despite the horrified reactions of his captives Jenkins retained his stone-faced composure. After all, he knew none of their pleas mattered now. Their fates were sealed.
