Canid Fever

## **Canid Fever** *by Bloodyspaghetti*

Something bit me last week, a dog, a mutt. A piece of shit covered in fur. Was it last week though? I don't remember. Maybe it was two weeks ago. It's been a while ago, the wound's already closed up. I kinda forgot where it bit me too.

Usually, I don't dislike dogs but after being bitten I've been feeling like crap. I keep getting hot flashes and fever, not to mention the crazy fever dreams that come along with it.

I did get myself vaccinated against rabies, but I doubt that's what I would've gotten from this mut. What I have is something else. My appetite had gone down, I can barely stand to eat lately. I've lost a bunch of weight. I am constantly thirsty and it doesn't hurt to drink at all, so probably no rabies for me.

My sense of smell had improved crazily, which is probably the most annoying problem I've ever had. Every little scent feels amplified by hundreds of times and it's driving me crazy.

Did I mention the fever dreams?

Every time I attempt to get some sleep, I end up dreaming about having my skin torn off by a pack of monstrous dogs. It hurts like the real deal; I wake up in the middle of the night feeling like I've been bitten and clawed at all over. It hurts so badly that yesterday I couldn’t even get out of bed. I was this sore.

I think I might be losing my mind, whenever it's completely silent I can hear feint howling in the distance.

The longer it stays quiet, the louder the howling becomes, it gets closer, and closer.

It gets so close sometimes that I can hear it coming from right behind me.

The hairs on the back of my neck stand up as the howling becomes painfully close and loud, drowning out the shrieking silence in my room.

That's why I haven't turned the TV off in a while now, otherwise I'll hear that wretched howling again.

I can't have that.

Howling is bad.

There are dog heads sometimes pushing through my walls.

Whenever that happens, I just freeze in place; I hope they don't notice me, I can't fight them off after all, my body is too weak right now. I am too weak to do anything; I can't defend myself right now. I can't defend myself after that dog… bit me…

What if the government sent it after me? What if I was infected with some experimental virus these bastards created to use as biological warfare, it all makes sense now. Everything makes sense now. They knew I figured them out, I was about to expose all their corruption and they had me taken out. They thought they could make me the insane scapegoat. Who would've believed a mad man?

Didi mention I was bitten by a doog?

Well me am not mad!

I got you Obama! I got Bush! Kennedy was never shot! He belongs to the illuminati, they all do… The dogs, yes, the dogs… They are slaves of the werewolf race. They all are… it all makes sense, otherwise, why would we be catered to love these fucking fur monsters with sharp teeth?

Mustard, you freaks! I mustard you!

If I had the strength to get out and tell the world the truth – I would, but you're lucky fucks, you know I can't. I'm too weak, every time I try to walk, I fall down. My body isn't my own anymore. You've put a remote control in it, didn't you? I got you figured out, that's why I laugh every time my body hits the floor. It doesn't hurt at all, it's just funny. I forgot what it's like to hurt, I've fallen so many times now that I feel funny all the time.

The neighbors don't even complain anymore.

Did you inform them? Well shame on you.

I'll let them know the truth… I'll tell them everything about your dogshow.

Speaking of dogs, there is one standing right behind me; laughing at me, I can see it in the reflection of my screen. Why does it have human teeth? My neck is stuck in place, I can't even face the dog. I am too weak to move. My body started shaking from the stress of thinking of what I should type.

I don't like it…

Why do I hear claws tapping all over the floor?

I don't have any pets…

Oh, there's a dog head trying to push its way out of my screen.

Did I mention I ran out of sleeping pills? Eh I guess I should be going to bed now.

I feel really tired.

nO.
