Laughing and giggling Zepar danced about on his crabclaws. The big yellow eyes beamed with demonic satisfaction as Elsie 1 and Johnny began to mate.
Mister Boot also looked out the barn museum windows but he had only tears for the youngsters. "Their accepting those animal instincts and putting them into practice I see! I still wish Master Zepar you'd left them as humans, I think...."
"Think, Boot you have compassion, you don't think!" replied Zepar from his captive corner.
"The boy Johnny, he's lost all he was and now services the cow as a bull born bull does! There see the cow bellow as his load fires into her virgin's body, they're lost to the world!" whinned Boot.
"No Boot no, they are not lost to this world! Instead they now offer much to this world, see he's done and soon another cow shall walk the Earth. They in time shall offer their bodies for food to humans, dogs, and kitties. Remember what the humans say, they use everything but the Mooo! Laughing," Zepar turns his gaze upward.
A hatch in the above floor opens as both Zepar and Boot look up.
"I saw and heard the two of you!" said a young male voice.
"Ahh another cow for the pasture!" said Zepar as he looked up.
"Careful child he mean's what he says!" called Boot to whoever was up there.
The shuffling about up above made Zepar look at Boot and then to the open hatch.
"Demon Zepar, I demand you change my friends back to their human forms!" said the young voice.
Zepar laughed, "I think not, indeed if I get my way you will join them very soon!"
Suddenly a thin trickle of white dust rained down onto Zepar's head. As it touched his gray skin the laughing Demon began to scream in pain.
Boot looked at Zepar wondering if this was part of a coming trick. A trick that would doom another youth to bovine life. Yet as Zepar danced about in pain small curls of smoke came up from where ever the white dust landed.
"My Daddy always told me that Devils and Witches didn't like salt, now I see why! Laughing, I see Demon you have a different tune! Now I say again do change my friends back to human or I have almost 600 pounds of refined salt ready to make you burn, and burn you will Zepar!" said the voice from above.
Zepar's pained hide made his yellow eyes glow with the fired hate from Hell. Yet the salt continued to rain down, a little at a time.
"Get the beasts and bring them to me!" ordered Zepar to mister Boot.
An hour of torment passed as some small foot kept kicking down a little more salt just to keep the spirit aglow in Zepar. At last in walked Boot with one bull and two cows in tow.
"There, now do your work Zepar!" demanded the voice.
The Demon mumbled his Latin words as he directed the black powers of which he had controls. As he mumbled the words he'd look up at the sifting salt still raining down.
Elsie 2 was first to change as then Elsie 1. "The first shall be last and the last will be first!" remarked Zepar as he continued to mumble.
Soon Johnny was regaining his youthful human form. The three lay out flat on the cement floor, but looked almost dead.
"Their as you demanded, human again!" spouted Zepar.
A thick rain of salt rained down on Zepar's head as he screamed of pain.
"Not so Demon, they must be alive as humans, their memories restored, and just as they were before entering this Hell hole." said the voice.
Boot watched and smiled to see the Master Demon wiggling in pain. The kids began to move and soon sat up looking about.
"I was a cow!" said Ryan.
"I was a cow too!" said Angela looking toward little Johnny. "You nasty kid you were a bull and mounted me!"
Johnny sat with a smirk on his face and one hand in his pants.
"Now one more thing Mister Zepar Demon sir, change Mister Boot back to the total man he was once!" demanded the youth in control of one ugly demon.
"WAIT !" yelled Boot. I've been here so long as keeper of this place that all my relatives are dead. I have no life to go to and no family who would remember! I ask this Demon to complete my change and let me live my life out as a true stallion. Please let me walk from here as a stallion, a horse, and live the animal life, PLEASE!" begged Boot.
"Do IT, Demon!" said the voice again.
The sound of ripping cloth found Mister Boot rapidly changing to a large black and white marked Shire stallion. The animal shook it's great head and snorted. As it's tail swished over big rounded hairy buttocks it watched with interest what might happen next.
"Ryan, Angela, Johnny, and you stallion get out of there quick!" said the young voice from above.
A big kick of more salt rained down on Zepar. "I have but one request Demon! I, me, the nasty kid up here wants your power to change people into animals. I want the people to remember their lives before the change and have a will when as the animal forms they would be like unto. I want to live a very long rich life with all the money I'd ever need! Plus at no time will you or your demon host bother me or my friends! Oh and one last thing, you agree to remain where you are till God calls your name, RIGHT?" said the voice with a laugh as more salt rained again.
A growl from the smoking demon and one word, "DONE!"
The hatch closed and the museum was again it's dark self with only two big yellow burning eyes giving a glow to the polished floor.
"Ryan, Angela, and Johnny, I'm so happy for us all!" said Jeff Ryan's
second younger brother now only six years old.
The black shire snorted a hello and rubbed his big head into Jeff's small chest.
"You can life at the Markley Farm, they have shires and other breeds of draft horses, you'll like it!" said Jeff as he patted the black face.
As the five walked along back to the manor and a exit from the terrible night they'd had together, Jeff began to plan.
