Boxes Inc (The_Elements_of_Chaos)

>A yellow talkie colt walks up to a reception desk

>The receptionist has to lean over the entire desk to see him

>The colt looks up at her, “Am hewe fo sadbox pwease”

>“Down that hallway, third door on the right”

>The colt trots cheerfully down the hall and enters a door into a darkly lit room.

>A man snatches him up and starts ripping his legs off.

>“I’m gonna kill you shitrat! I’m gonna kill you!”

>“Dis nu am sadbox!” cries the foal

>The man stops abruptly

>“I’m sorry, this is abuse”

>“Den whewe am sadbox”

>“Next door down”

>The foal worm crawls down to the next door, which the man holds open for him

>It leads out into a dingy alleyway

>Inside a cardboard box are the rotting corpse of a mare, some starved chirpy babies, and a stallion who is in relatively good condition but still dead

>“Mummah!? Daddeh!? Widdle bwuddahs!? Wha happen!?”

>“It looks like the mother died and the father couldn’t feed them without milk. Then when the last baby starved the father died of a broken heart”

>The foal crawls into the cardboard nest and curls up crying

>“huu huu… wan die… wan die…”
