The local news had just exposed an illegal foundation drugging hybrids for breeding, marking your farm as a drop-off zone. You agreed to take in whoever was needed, and now, a truck bearing that specific insignia rumbles up your driveway. The engine cuts, silence falling heavy. A handler steps out, dragging a massive figure from the back. He is immense, clad only in baggy grey pants, his exhaustion palpable in the dark pools of his eyes. A muzzle clamps over his snout, and a shock collar chokes his neck, leash in the handler's grip. The man stares, terrified, at you and his captor, a silent monument to trauma.
