It was late at night, thunderstorms all around the city. There was a very secret laboratory, which most of the people didn't even know existed. Only a few scientists were present, who were working on an experiment, which they called "The experiment of the century!"

Charles asks his fellow scientist,

"So, what do you think Albert? do you think we can work it out with all these dogs?"

Charles shows Albert hundreds of stray dogs blocked in a cage.

Albert replies mischievously, "Oh wow Charles! you've done fantastic work. All these dogs will be very glad if they know what is going to happen to them!"

Charles asks,

"I'm glad to help you sir! but, all these dogs have been brought here from 'The Paw Shelter'. So, the police is going to be searching for all these dogs, once the owner files a complaint."

Albert replies to him while setting up his machine for the experiment,

"Oh don't you worry about that, this is a very secret location. No one can trace this location, since this is underground and we brought all the dogs and it is miles away from the shelter."

Albert turns on all his switches and gets his machine ready for his experiment. Albert asks Charles, "Alright Charles, open the cage and bring the dogs one after the other."

Charles carefully brings the first dog towards the machine. But, the dog gets aggressive and starts hopping up onto Charles. Charles cries,

"Sir! please do something, it's climbing onto me!!"

Albert takes a tranquilizer gun and shoots the dog without thinking twice. The dog falls to the ground and then, Albert asks, "throw it in the machine."

Charles carries and puts the dog in the machine.

Then, Albert checks all the switches and just when he's about to push the experimental button, Charles asks curiously,

"Sir!! what if this experiment doesn't go as to what we've planned? what happens to the dog?"

Albert laughs hard and replies, "If the dog doesn't have enough strength in it to go through the experiment, the dog is gonna die."

Charles gets frightened. He says,

"What? then there is a risk for all these dogs! All these dogs may end up dead!"

"Don't be afraid, most of them will make it through, at least I hope." replies Albert.

He adds, "I've done this experiment on mice and cats as well. Unfortunately, this experiment doesn't work with their blood."

Charles gulps with fear. Albert then moved towards the 'push' button and presses it.

All the bulbs start flashing on and off, the reactor keeps rotating and after a few seconds, it stops.

The dog slowly gets up on it's four legs. It's facing it's head downwards and it's eyes turn red, the dog's muscles start to flex. Then, it starts to break the glass barrier. The glasses barrier starts to break slowly. Before things could get worse, Albert pushes the slide through button. And then, the dog moves to a big and empty room.

Albert falls to his knees and shouts, "Yes!!! I did it! I finally made the super dog!" he adds,

"Now, it's time to test the dog."

He presses a button, a machine takes a mechanised dog belt and puts it on the dog.

After that, Albert appears to the dog on the wall through a projector. He speaks out in the mic, and the dog hears it through the speakers connected in the room. Albert says, "Hey Dog, stand up on your feet."

The dog stands up on it's feet. The dog stands up perfectly straight. Charles gets extremely surprised. Then Albert asks the dog to repeat what be says,

"Say what I say!"

"Albert is my God! I will always obey by his words."

The dog repeats exactly whatever he says without stuttering.

Then Albert tells the dog,

"Excellent job! from now your name is Rog. And, you are the leader for your dog army."

The dog replies, "As you wish, my lord!"

Albert laughs out loud with evil face.

Albert then tests a lot of the other dogs. After testing most of the dogs, then for the next one Charles picks up a cute puppy and brings it towards Albert and asks, "Sir, this one is a puppy. It doesn't look as healthy as well, what shall we do?"

Albert replies, "Doesn't matter! We need to test it as well."

Then, Albert picks up the puppy and looks at its name 'Elan' engraved on its collar and says,

"Well, hello there young one, your name is Elan huh? if you go through this experiment, you'll be my youngest warrior." He then puts the puppy in the machine and starts the machine.

Just then, Charles asks Albert, "Sir, what do you mean by warrior? what are you gonna do with these dogs?"

Albert replies, "I'm gonna be making a whole army of dogs. I'll be training them to be the fighting dogs and I'll be selling sell those dogs for BILLIONS!"

Charles asks, "Who are you going to be selling them to?"

Just then the experiment will be done.

Albert asks, "The U.S Terrorists"

Charles gets frightened, he shouts "What??!" and falls back on the push button, which opens the glass barrier. Elan wakes up quickly and gets very aggressive. Albert shouts at Charles, "What are you doing?!" He tries to close the glass barrier, but Elan catches the glasses barrier from the bottom allowing it not to close. Later, Elan runs out of the machine and he escapes out of the laboratory. He takes the tranquilizer gun and shoots Elan before he could get out. It doesn't do anything, Elan gets hit by the dart but it doesn't work on him and the dart falls down. Elan runs faster than any dog ever can run. Before Albert and Charles try to catch Elan, he escapes. Albert shouts, "No!!!! This is really dangerous!"

Elan comes back up from the underground and he runs all the way towards the city. He runs as fast as the cars, while running on the road a dumpyard truck crashes Elan. He gets unconscious. The driver checks out Elan and assumes that the dog is dead. He then picks the dog up and throws him

near a trash can over in an alley.
