Matthew P.O.V,

You weren't sure wether you were just tired or you actually enjoyed it, but you snuggled up to him. You felt his soft fur brush onto you, like you were laying on the world's comfiest matress...

Zircon: There we go!~ Good boy!~

Matthew: ...

You still know you don't belong here. But...a little nap won't hurt, right...?

Zircon: Shhhh...go into slumber, sleepyhead. Don't worry about a thing, your master will take care of everything...

You know that isn't true. You aren't a pet, you're a human being! But here...you have been reduced to...that...but even so...why are you closing your eyes?

Zircon: Did you have a long day? Oh, there there...stay right there...

His fur now somewhat covers you. His arms move around you, so that you can feel the fur, it's all so...fluffy...

Zircon: Y'know...it's kinda sad.

Matthew: ...Hm? What is...?

Zircon: In a few years, you'll be...gone...your life span is incredibly short. Hm...maybe I can...well, I'll tell you another time, pumpkin.

Matthew: Hey, Zircon... why did you k-kill every...o-one...?

Uh oh, that just escaped from your mouth. Well, there's no going back.

Zircon: That's...w-well...you see...the thing is...you don't have to think about it!~

Matthew: ...Huh?

Zircon: A pet doesn't need to be concerned with all this...you don't need any responsibility, pumpkin...

Matthew: But...I w-wanna...kn-kno...w...

No, stop it. Don't say any more. You might upset him, and you'll be in trouble.

Zircon: What's with that tone, hm? Don't worry, you aren't in any trouble! 

Oh.

Zircon: Say, when all of this is over, do you wanna go for a walk? I already picked out the cutest leash!

Matthew: A-Ah...!

Zircon: Or maybe...want another kiss, cutie?~

Matthew: N...N...o...p-plea..se...don't...

Zircon: Oh, was it too much? No, don't look so pale sweetie...I'll respect your wishes...unless you want me too... But for now, just relax.

This was all too confusing. Life span, walks, leash...it's all too much. You need to lay down...luckily for you there is a warm cozy-no, stop. This isn't supposed to...

Zircon: You're still awake? Hm...how about I sing a lullaby? *ahem*

Zircon started to hum a soft melody. Why...does it sound so good...? You're eyes are closing slowly... In hindsight...did you make the right choice?

Kayla P.O.V.

Well, this was unexpected.

When we set out to save Matthew, we got ambushed. We ran away, but got completely separated. Where am I now? Well...

Kayla: So where the hell am I?

Doctor: Just call me doctor. You see, we found you and your friends strolling about. So, we used gas to knock you all out. You are in the Protogen Resistance base.
