WARNING: VIOLENCE/TRAMA/SEXUAL HARASSMENT

Oliver's POV

The bully dragged my face against the cement, scraping my cheek making it bleed. The guys kept beating me up while one dude managed to step on my arm. I just bit my lip to not say anything, but after another 15 minutes or so the guys left me in the alleyway. I struggled to my feet, holding my arm steady, and started to wobble my way home. I got some weird looks from people, so I pulled my hood up to keep my face hidden. Since I lived close to the school, I only had to walk a little way to my house. I stumbled in the front door and grabbed a snack from the kitchen. I'd clean myself up after a nap and changed clothes. I saw bruises forming all around my abdomen as I pulled a sweater over my head. I'd make dinner after my nap. I could feel my nose was still bloody, but I was too tired to clean it. I flopped down on my bed and felt my eyes get heavy. Soon enough I fell asleep. It felt like I had only slept for five minutes before I woke up. My eyes slowly opened, I didn't move at first looking to see it was almost 3 in the afternoon. I stretched and noticed my legs felt weird. I tried to sit up and got a glance at my arms. They were brown and furry. I started to panic, what kind of dream was this? I tried to speak but all that came out was,

"Ruff, ruff!"

I stood up and jumped off my bed. I stumbled on the landing and realized I had four paws. I padded down to my bathroom and put my front paws on the counter and balanced on my hind legs. I saw my face and nearly fell over. I looked like a German Shepard. I jumped down and started pacing, I'm a dog now? That makes absolutely no sense. I kept pacing along my living room, Maybe I should go and  retrace my steps, I don't know. I went and jumped on the door handle to dislodge it, then I pushed it open with my nose. I padded along the route I took when I heard shouting, I went to go check it out, I mean why not I'm a dog now. I glanced around the corner to see a guy pressed against the wall as a guy who held his collar shouted at him. There was a group of people laughing at him.

I realized it was the bully and his group. Once the main guy stopped yelling, I saw a lackey whisper something to the boss. The boss laughed and grinned evilly the bullies left except for the lackey who forced himself onto the guy. The guy tried to push him off and I could hear him say,

"Stop it! Get off! Stop! Help! Anyone?"

But the lackey ignored him and used his knee to put pressure in between the guy's legs. I growled and started running towards them, I launched myself at the lackey, knocking him off the guy. Growling at the lackey I looked up at the other guy, he was crying and breathing heavily frozen against the wall. Probably hyperventilating, I thought. I recognized him as the bystander in my fight earlier. The lackey got up and tried to advance to the guy again, but I moved in his way barking and growling. The lackey grabbed my scruff and threw me away from the guy. I was sent rolling and quickly got back up on my feet to see the lackey was once again on the dude. I saw the lackey's hand move towards the guy's zipper on his jeans. I howled and threw myself on the lackey and bit the guy's hand. I dragged him away from the guy then stood between the two I could hear people running towards us.
