You regain consciousness in a dark warm place. It seems like a giant sack and periodically the entire sack containing you and what feel like various size manhole covers bang against a padded wall. It's all very disorienting as you appear to have been transformed into a hula hoop except metal. You try to imagine what a metal hula hoop or manhole covers would be doing in a bag. You try to recall what happened last. You were a bucket and mop and oh, that had hurt. Though kind of in a pleasant way, you reflect with a great degree of perturbation.
You hear giant muffled voices.
"Good thing you found that ring, Justin," the first voice said.
"Yeah, I thought it was lost when it rolled down the grand stair and into the mainhall. Fortunately, as I rushed down the steps, I caught a glimpse of it rolling into the janitor's closet," said the second voice.
"Good now, you're sure you can change when you read the inscription?"
"I've been able to were shift since I was a puppy," Justin says with a laugh.
"We have to convince Edward that this is the genuine Borgia ring that can turn men into dogs," the second voice says.
"Oh, we will, but he's going to be pissed when he finds out it cannot."
"Let me worry about that," said the second voice.
You now realize that you are a ring in a guy named Justin's pocket, and they're going to use you in a scam. You have a bad feeling about what might happen to a worthless ring when this is done. Smelter comes to mind.
"Edward!" shouts the first voice. "This is Justin. The guy with the ring I told you about."
