A growling lament of pain escapes your lips as your tail-bone pushes out further, wagging as golden sandy blond fur sprouts out of it almost immediately. You bite down on your lip as the bones in your legs crack and shift around, reforming into a digitigrade stance. The inflammation caused by this is so intense, you wish someone would put you out of your misery.
While biting down, your teeth begin to elongate, nearly piercing your bottom lip. You let out a whimper and quickly refrain from clenching down on your lip. However, as you do this, your tongue suddenly rolls out of your mouth and hangs there. Due to the friction going on from the re-arranging of your bones and the fur spreading over your body, producing a lot of heat, you can't help but pant.
The panting actually helps you relieve some of the pain you're feeling, making you more relaxed. Granted you still feel like you're being tortured but the sensation seems to be overridden some by just panting.
You hold up one of your hands to your face to watch black leathery rough paw pads form on the tips of your fingers and your palm. Not long after, claws emerge and push out. The sensation is reminiscent of having carpenter nails shoved into your fingers, piercing the meat. You're nearly tempted to going back to biting your lip but decide against it due to your better judgment.
As the fur crawls up your neck, you notice your nose is cold, wet, and wiggling some. Strong odors fill your nostrils, making your nose wrinkle in disgust. It's your clothes! If only you could get out of them but unfortunately, despite your changes, they still won't fall off.
A howl of distress escapes your lips as the lower part of your face pulsates and begins to push out. Deciding you have to see the changes for yourself, you use your still slightly human hands to pull yourself up using the sink and look into the mirror. You let out a bark of surprise when you see your reflection. Your face and body has been completely covered in golden sandy blond fur as your face pushes out into a muzzle. Getting a glimpse of the changes sends the realization you are no longer yourself through you. You don't even recognize yourself with that wet black nose, fur, floppy ears, small sloping forehead, those fangs, that panting tongue, that dog muzzle, and... your eyes! Your eyes no longer resemble any sign of humanity. They're just black animal eyes staring back at you with a white glint.
Suddenly your head feels swimmy, causing you to feel dazed. You place a hand to your forehead but find that your fingers have become stiff and shrunk in size, your hands now paws! You lose your grip on the sink but scrape your claws against it, trying to keep your grasp. However, your attempt is futile and you fall to the floor on all fours. You feel completely dizzy now and your head hurts, like you have have a clamp-like headache. You close your eyes and grit your teeth, whimpers and growls escaping.
As the pain subsides, you open your eyes and find everything is in different shades of grey. However, it's as if your mind is no longer your own. Your fear of the change has been replaced with the fear of being enclosed in a foreign place. What is this strange room anyway? Why are you trapped inside it?!
You begin to whimper, very scared of your environment. You begin to pace around in circles but find your locomotion is tripped up slightly by some strange material covering your canine body. Aggravated, you try to shake and rip the material off of you. You manage to free yourself of the restraining device around your legs and lower waist but no matter how hard you try, the fabric on your upper body will not come off.
