The shopkeeper looked at the sunrise, she breathed in the morning air and then looked at her cart. She took out the sign that read “Exotic Pets” and then brought out several cages, boxes, and jars. Each one contained a different creature, big, small, with wings, or tails, breathing fire, or having gills. If you could imagine it, this “shop” would have it. She looked at her merchandise, and began to talk to them.
“Morning, everyone,” She began with enthusiasm, “It’s the big market day, so put on your best smiles, look cute… or scary, whatever you think will get you a good home.” The creatures responded with barks, chirps, or whatever you could think of. The shopkeeper smiled, and then looked at one jar and picked it up. “And Monkey…” she said looking through the glass jar at a tiny figure, “Just try to be friendly.”
Inside the jar was a three inch being… at first you would think he was human. Brown hair, brown eyes, ragged clothing, and goggles… then you would see something different… a tail! Paws! And Dog Ears! That was Monkey, the tiny dog boy. He opened his eyes, looked at the shopkeep, and gave her his middle finger salute.
The shopkeep looked at him, placed the jar back down, got a label and placed it on the jar. “Sigh… I see your in a good mood this morning.”
Monkey looked up, but couldn’t read what the label said. He sat down, and rested his back against the glass prison. He took out a bb pellet, threw it, it ricocheted off the opposite wall, and came back to him.
Business was usual for the Pet shop. Several pets were sold, every time one was gone, Monkey waved goodbye to them. They were just one less thing to talk to. Although during the day he didn’t talk much, when the shop owner was gone, he’d talk to the other creatures for company.
By noon, some shoppers had taken notice to Monkey. One shopper looked at the jar he was in and then looked at the shopkeep.
“Excuse me, but why is this one at such a low price?”
“Hm? Oh, you mean Monkey,” She replied, “He’s a runner, and not very friendly to others…” The shopper looked at Monkey, and then walked off. “Well Monkey, no matter what happens, this is gonna be your last day for sale.”
Monkey gulped, there was no way anyone would want to buy him… but if they did, he’d escape easy… no he had to get out of here now! He looked at the lid of the jar, jumped, and hit it. He continued this for several minutes, trying to break open the lid… his plan failed.
Hours passed, and the sun was beginning to set. The store would be closing soon. Monkey couldn’t take it anymore, he just had to get out of here. With all his strength, and with all his heart, he tackled the glass, trying to break free.
The girl ran through the Market. ‘I hope I’m not too late,’ She thought.
“Well,” The shopkeep said to the remaining pets, “I think it’s time we pack up.”
‘No!’ Monkey thought, and continued attacking the jar.
“WAIT!” Someone yelled. It was a girl, in her teens. She had blue eyes, and long black hair, with purple highlights. She wore a green tank top and blue jeens. She paused, and caught her breath, “I was… hoping I could buy… a pet”
The shopkeep looked at her and smiled, “Be my guest.”
“Thanks,” She said relieved that it was not too late. She looked around at the different pets. A baby dragon… two headed lizard… a duck… nothing she really wanted to buy. Then she heard a tapping sound. She looked and noticed a jar. The creature inside it was desperately trying to break out of it. He tried tried again… then again… and once more before he fell on the floor, tears running from his eyes. “Poor little guy,” she whispered. She picked up the jar and walked to the shopkeep, “I’ll take him.” She took out her money and offered it to her.
“… Ok…” The shopkeep began, a bit surprised, “But I must warn you, that one is not to be trusted… are you sure you want to buy him?” The girl looked at the tiny creature and nodded.
Monkey woke up and looked around, at first he thought that he had just been abandoned, left to die… then he noticed a girl was looking at him. They were in the park. She was sitting on a bench, and holding the jar he was in.
“I thought you’d never wake up,” She said to him in a sweat voice. The tiny dog boy didn’t say a word. “Now, I’ll let you out of this jar…” She began, those words made the tiny boy’s ears twitch, “But as long as you don’t run away.” The boy looked at her, and nodded. “Good.” She opened the jar, and set it down on the bench so he could walk out. The boy walked out… slowly at first, looking at his surroundings. Then he stopped for a moment… and ran into a nearby bush. The girl was surprised at first of his great speed… then she looked down, a bit disappointed. She didn’t try to chase him… she wanted to keep him… but she knew that the little guy wanted to be free.
Monkey laughed, he was finally free! He couldn’t believe how easy it was! He looked back at the girl with a grin on his face… then he noticed her… was she crying? Monkey shook his head, ‘Don’t look back, I’m free now… but… she did save me…’ He sighed and looked around for something.
The girl wiped her eyes, and got up. As she was about to leave, she felt something pull at her jeans. She looked down to see the boy. He was holding a flower that he had found and offered it to her.
“th… thank you,” Monkey said. This was the first time he had actually spoken to a human in a long time. The girl looked shocked at first, then she smiled, picked Monkey up, and gave him a hug. She felt warm, and for the first time in Monkey’s life he felt safe… safe from the harshness of the world that he had been accustomed to.
“Your welcome little guy, my name’s Dea, what’s yours?”
“… Monkey…”
“Nice to meet you Monkey,” She replied, she held Monkey in front of her and asked, “So would you like to live with me and be my little pet?”
‘Pet?’ that term still hurt Monkey, what made him lesser than others to be considered a pet instead of a friend. Then he looked at Dea’s face… she was actually, quite beautiful… he looked into her eyes, smiled and nodded.
“Great!” Dea exclaimed, and gave Monkey a kiss. His face turned bright red and she giggled. She placed Monkey on her shoulder and walked home.

Chapter Two : The Goddess and The Little One
“Well, here we are,” Dea said as she unlocked the door to her apartment. Monkey looked around as she gave him the grand tour. A small kitchen, a bathroom, a closet and her room. It was for the most part clean, a few papers or peaces of trash littered the floor. She had a desk with a laptop, that was right next to the window. On one side of her room was a TV that rested on a drawer. Connected to it were several wires from her video game systems. On the other end of the room was her bed. “It’s not much, but it’s home.”
“Not much?” Monkey replied, “this is way better than living in a jar!” Dea giggled at his little joke (no pun intended). She picked up Monkey and gently set him on her desk. Dea took a seat and looked at him.
“So… how did you… you know…” Monkey smiled.
“A year ago… life was boring, I was normal… physically anyway. I wasn’t motivated in school, I didn’t know what career I wanted, I didn’t care. I wanted adventure! One day… I got my wish… I was wandering around and I noticed this weird tent, curiosity came over me so I went in. There was a gypsy or maybe you’d call her a witch. She looked at me and told me to sit.”
Flashback
“I would like to offer you one wish,” The witch said.
“… what’s the catch? I believe in magic, but I know it comes at a price.”
“Then you are a wise young boy, but tell me this, what do you think of your life?”
“Well… it’s… fine”
“What about your future, what is your purpose?”
“I… I have no purpose.”
“Then you have nothing to lose.” The witch replied with a grin.
“…ok,” Monkey replied, “I… I wish I could have a life filled with adventure.”
The witch nodded and began a chant, the room got dark and Monkey blacked out.
The Present
“And so, when I came to, I was three inches tall and part dog, I was stranded in some field. A few weeks passed, and things were for the most part good… then that Shopkeep caught me and I was trapped in that pet shop for a month or two.”
Dea closed her eye’s and thought about all Monkey had said, smiled and looked at him, “Well, I’m sure you’ll be much happier here.” Monkey smiled in reply not knowing what to say. Dea looked at the clock, it read 8:30 P.M. “Hey Monkey… before you shrank, did you play video games?”
“Yeah!”
“Wanna play?” She asked.
“Um…” Monkey looked at his tiny paws with a frown. “I don’t think I can.”
“We’ll see,” Dea said, sat up and started looking through a pile of video game accessories. She picked up a Xbox 360 wireless controller that was 3/5 the size of a regular controller. Monkey was about to stand, “No, sit, I want to see something.” Monkey sat back down and Dea placed the controller on the desk. She looked at Monkey and gently moved his legs so they were both facing outward instead of crossed. Then she picked up the controller and placed it on his lap. His feet were right next to the triggers! Monkey rested a paw on the joysticks and tested it out. Although it took a bit of strength he could pull the L and R triggers. Dea smiled, picked him and the controller up, then they both sat on the floor, and Dea started her Xbox. “Is Halo 2 a good game?”
“Yeah!”
“Great.”
Monkey went into the settings menu, and created a new character. It was an Elite with Green and white armor. His emblem was a Grunt. Then he fixed the controls and sensitivity settings so it would be easier for him to play. Finally he entered in the name “Little 1” Dea’s character was a Spartan, she had purple and grey armor, and a heart for an emblem. Her name was “xXGoddessXx”
The two played a practice game for ten minutes. In the end, Dea had won, just as Monkey had guessed. The score was 21 to 15, which was pretty good for a three inch gamer. After that they played a real match on Xbox live, Dea put on the head set. It was a team slayer match, four vs. four. Little 1 and xXGoddessXx were on blue team, along with two other people. The TV began to beep as the timer counted down 3...2...1...
Little 1 looked around, it the map lockout. Cold, you could fall, and limited explosives… He looked at xXGoddessXx and the other people on his team. They were both Spartans.
“Hi everyone!” xXGoddessXx said politely as she went for the sniper rifle.
“Holy S#i%! Your guest is an Elite?” One of them said, what a n00b, no not even a n00b, he’s a nub, that’s like a million times worse than a n00b.” And with that, the person left the game.
“That’s not good,” xXGoddessXx said as she sniped a guy off the other side of the map.
“Gained the Lead”
“Dea!” Monkey yelled, “your standing in front of explo-”
BOOM!
“Tied the leader”
After that they things just got worse, the other team was filled with a bunch of really good gamers, who… liked to… talk. Little 1 shot at one of them with a battle rifle, and then was no-scoped.
“Ha! What Now! You suck at LIFE!”
With five minutes to go the score was 35 to 27, red team was winning. The other guy on blue team quite seeing that it was hopeless. Cla-click… BOOM! Went xXGoddessXx’s shotgun and they got another kill. Little 1 ran, shooting off his SMG and filling one guy with lead.
“I need Ammo,” Little 1 said.
“Ok, don’t worr… crap,” xXGoddessXx replied. She looked in front of her and saw a red Spartan with an energy sword. XXGoddessXx shot what was left of her clip, but ran out of ammo, the red charged and slashed her. The respawn would take a few seconds, but it gave the blue team enough to see that red guy… t-bagging her!
“Dude!” Little 1 yelled, “You should respect the dead!” He yelled throwing a grenade and shooting his battle rifle. There was a loud explosion, and the red was sent flying. Little 1 reloaded the rifle and looked around.
The blue team continued on fighting. With a minute left they had gotten a score to 36 to 35. xXGoddessXx ran, two guys were chasing her, she jumped off the ledge to land by a nearby bridge… and missed. She fell to her death.
“Suicide”
There was a ten second penalty, and they lost one point. The timer was at thirty seconds left. Little 1 turned around and saw all four of the red team. He ran behind a wall for cover. He counted to three and charged them, guns a blazing. He dodged their shots, but still got hit a few times. As his shield was dying he ran towards the four and threw a plasma grenade at one of them. BOOM! With that one grenade he had killed all four of the reds, and himself, but it ended the game at 36 to 37 red team wins.
“That is soo cheap, your just a lucky n00b.” One of the reds said.
“Goddess, ur a total sl##” Another one said.
Monkey looked at Dea… she looked a bit pissed… “Oh YEAH YOU F#%* FACE!? Well, at least I have friends. Go have sex with your boyfriend over there!” And she exited out of the game.
“Dea?” Monkey asked.
“…”
“Don’t listen to what he says, he’s just an idiot.”
“… yeah… I guess so”
“After all, he doesn’t no how great a goddess can really be.”
Dea looked at Monkey and smiled, “Thanks, I needed that.” She looked at the clock, yawned, “Well time for bed.” She picked Monkey up and placed him on the desk. “Be right back.” She walked into the closet, and from what Monkey could hear, was changing her cloths. Monkey looked around the desk and grabbed two tissues. One he folded into a pillow, the other he used as a blanket.
Dea walked out of the closet. She was now wearing a matching pair of pajamas that were a light purple. The sleeves looked like they had been cut off of the shirt, to show off her slender arms. The shirt was also kinda small, it let Monkey see Dea’s flat belly.
“Well, what do ya think?” Dea asked Monkey.
“Y… you,” Monkey began his face a bit red out of shyness, “You look beautiful.”
“Aww, thank you.”
“Well… goodnight,” Monkey said and he tucked himself in.
“What are you doing?”
“Going to sleep,” Monkey replied.
“Not there.”
“Then where, and it better not be a cage or something like that.”
“No silly, I trust you enough so you don’t need a cage.”
“Not a dog house, that’s even more humiliating!”
“No not a dog house either.”
“Then where?”
Dea plucked him off the table and jumped onto the bed. “With me.” She said with a smile, she was even blushing a little.
“Um… wha? Me… slee…. Sleep… you… me?” Monkey said now really scared.
Dea giggled. “Yep, unless you don’t want to,” She replied and began to make a sad puppy dog face.
“… Ok,” Monkey answered, knowing there was no way out of this.
“Great!” She said, and gave Monkey a kiss goodnight. She tucked herself in, and held Monkey so that he was warm and comfortable… right between one of her arms and her chest. “Goodnight”
Monkey’s face was bright red, he didn’t know what to do, he had never felt so nervous… it was comfy though. “Goodnight,” He finally replied, “And Dea?”
“Yes my little one?”
“Thanks for… everything.”
“Your welcome,” She replied, and the two fell asleep, it had been an eventful day, and they both couldn’t wait for tomorrow to come.
