Diane Malone walked into her house and instantly went up the stairs to her room. A second later, there was a knock on the door.
"Diane?" said a female voice, one much younger than Diane's.
"Whattaya want?" said Diane, as she began to change out of her school clothes into her "regular" clothes.
"Have you seen Dudley?" continued the voice, which belonged to Tina, Diane's little sister.
"No, I haven't seen your stupid stuffed dog. What would I do with it?"
"Nothing, I know," said Tina. "But I thought you might've seen it somewhere. I gotta find him. He gets lonesome if he's by himself too long."
Diane huffed out of her room and confronted her little sister. "He doesn't get lonesome! He can't! He's not a real arf! RUFF!"
Tina laughed at her sister's imitation of a dog. "Do it again!" she said.
"ARF!" said Diane. "BOWOWOWOWOWOWOWWW!" Tina thought Diane had a funny look on her face. Then, Diane began to try to reach behind herself.
She looked at Tina and pointed down her own back.
"What's wrong?" asked Tina. She looked at her sister's backside and was surprised to see a tail growing just above Diane's butt.
