"HEEEEL!" a loud voice boomed through the air.
To both girls surprise the chimera obeyed the command and ceased its attack and instantly ran to someone behind them. The girls turned around from where they had fallen on the floor hoping to bathe their rescuer in thanksgiving. But as the turned this felling of relief soon turned to a feeling of dread!
Standing before them was the strange old man from the front of the store! And sitting next to him calmly was the chimera that moments ago had been their best friend Jess!
"Ah, good to see you again my little ladies!"
"Who the hell are you and what the hell have you done to our friend?!" Lina demanded.
"Ah my little chocolate princess, I am the Master! The Master of all Transformative arts! I am the Master of all anthromorphic beings throughout history! As for your friend she is now MY friend. Any memories she may have had of you are now gone I can assure you." he replied as he patted the chimeras head with emphasis. To Amy and Lina's surprise their old friend accepted the patting and purred in reply.
"The Mmmaster of Transformmmation? Yeah right, sounds like sommme fairy tail."
"Do you doubt me my little dairy queen? You may have heard of some of my finer works in the Grecian "myths". But I can assure you they were all real! The centaurs, Real! The satyrs, Real! Harpies, nagas and even the ferocious minotaur, all some of my finest creations! Yes those were the glory days of transformation! And now I will bring back those glory days! You three were simply a practice run. Simple experiments of a few new transformation methods and I can see they all worked very well! Now that the testing is complete you three will merely live to serve me!"
"You BASTARD!!!" Lina yelled as she began to run at the old man. She didn't know what she was going to do when she got to him but she had to do something! She couldn't just let him take Jess lie that!
Before she ran five steps her motion was suddenly arrested! A glow of blue light radiated from the old man's hands and locked her in place!
"Ooo a feisty one. Well don't go melting yourself my little hershey kiss. I've got plans for you and you're other friend here." he said motioning to Amy and laughing manically. The demented laughter was the last thing both girls heard as they blacked out into nothingness.
