Krin wasn't sure how he got there, but when he woke up, he knew he wasn't home.. or anywhere he recognized. He could tell that the world seemed a bit... different-- taller somehow. And as he was getting up to try and move around, he stumbled right to his butt, almost like his legs had atrophy and wouldn't function properly. Upon his bottom making an abrupt contact with the ground, he heard a distinct crinkle sound, making him freeze before he hesitantly looked down to find out the truth. His body, now returning to being small and toddler-like horrified him.
He gasps out, about to speak out by opening his maw, but somehow all that emerged was incoherent mewls/babbles. He suddenly slaps a paw over his maw and widens his eyes; His brain to his body wasn't functioning all that well, leaving him incapable of adult speech. He had retained his memories and intellect, but he still was no more useful than a legitimate toddler by the looks of it. What's worse, he glances around the room, seeing other toddler cubs in the same predicament, but instead they seem completely out of it.. almost like in a trance.
Krin was all too aware of that familiar expression, knowing these cubs were under the effects of hypnosis of some kind. That would explain why he wasn't affected by that at least, since he isn't affected by other hypnotic powers when he also has similar powers of sensory manipulation himself as a demon.
Was this a set up? What in the world is going on here? He picks himself up, using the wall as support, before he shifts his body weight against the railing of the dividers for the playpen, getting a glance at the rest of the room-- and to his horror, he wasn't alone. He could see others being regressed down to toddler form as well, some were more aware of their surroundings than others-- but it was true... somehow he had let his guard down and allowed himself to be put in this predicament.
The only question remained... "Now what?"
I dunno, just some dramatic variation of this, since Krin's expression here tells the story. XD But something compelled me to get in on this YCH, so I did. =w= Enjoy the rare sight of bab Krinny.
