His own reflection filled him with disgust. A mule, dirty pack mule that no one would care about, no one would admire. Sterile to that. Soon they were back on track hauling all the thing they stole back to her cabin. He was going to do everything just to be changed back. After some time which seemed to be hours, they finally arrived to the place.
"Good boy, now let me take those things back, then we'll talk about you, you deserved some reward!" witch said taking the things back from his body, including the goose which was looking tired, also stared at the new mule with a compassion.
Chris was thirsty again, he found a bucket with water. He closed his eyes to not stare into his reflection this time and started to drink, hoping his nightmare will end in few moments. It took quite long for the witch to take care of her stuff and he started to feel hungry, but he didn't even wanted to try eating hay or fresh grass, however tasty it looked for him right now.
"Oh, here you are!" the witch says finding Chris walking around. "You were obedient and didn't done anything that I wouldn't like, I promised you something and I always keep my word!" she says teasingly petting his neck. The touch on his furry neck feels even more humiliating, he feels like her pet... But he brayed happily hearing he will be rewarded.
"I bet you feel bad as a mule, dirty..." she says grabbing his mane, pulling it a little, causing him some pain. "ugly muzzle" adds grabbing and lifting his chin, still wet from the water and his saliva. Then she walks to his side, stroking his fur along his body, then grabs his tail "and that tail... no grace in that... and no use in that too" says getting her hand close to his genitals. "Definitely just carrying packages and carts is not what you want in your life, isn't it?" she asks, and he nods braying. "Now, as I promised... You won't stay in that long-eared body anymore" she says, then giggles
He wanted to jump from happiness, but then notices she didn't said he won't be four-legged, just not long-eared... He feels his body starting to change, but his fur doesn't disappear
"You'll make a fine..."
