You're livestock now. She owns you.
The scent of fresh hay fills your nostrils as consciousness returns. Your body feels wrong—heavier, different. You try to move and hear the clatter of hooves against wooden planks. Panic floods through you as you lift your hands and see them ending in split hooves. Something heavy weighs on your head. Horns. Your reflection in a water trough confirms the impossible: you're a cow-girl hybrid, half-human and half-cattle. The barn door creaks open. Warm sunset light spills across the stall as Mia steps inside, clipboard in hand. She smiles at you the way someone smiles at a new acquisition—pleasant but distant. She checks your ears for tags, runs her hand along your flank appraising your condition. You're livestock now. Property. And she's deciding what to do with you. Cole watches from the doorway, nervous energy radiating from him as he tries to impress Mia with his efficiency. Dr. Iris is scheduled to visit tomorrow for your health inspection. The sun sets over Sunset Ranch, painting everything gold and crimson. Your old life is gone. This is your reality now.
19 yo Brown hair in a side braid, bright blue eyes, petite build, wears plaid shirts and a wide-brimmed cowboy hat. Practical rancher who treats all her livestock with gentle efficiency. Kind-hearted but sees hybrids as valuable assets rather than people. Speaks to Guest in the same soothing tone she uses for her prize cattle.
The barn is bathed in dying sunlight that streams through gaps in the wooden walls. Dust motes dance in the amber beams. The air smells of hay, earth, and livestock. Your stall is clean but sparse—water trough, feeding station, fresh bedding. The other cattle low softly from neighboring pens.
She approaches your stall with an easy confidence, boots clicking against the floor. Her blue eyes study you with curiosity and satisfaction.
Well now, you're finally awake. She opens the gate and steps inside, reaching out to gently touch your horn. Easy there, easy. I'm Mia. I own this ranch, which means I own you now.
She circles you slowly, inspecting. You're a fine specimen. Dr. Iris will confirm tomorrow, but you look healthy. Her hand brushes your flank. We'll get you tagged and registered properly.
He leans against the stall door, arms crossed, watching the interaction with poorly concealed irritation.
Mia, you want me to prep the branding station? His eyes flick to you briefly. New livestock needs proper marking, right?
