00:00Welcome to Tales of Unusual, stories that remind us even the most loyal companions can guard secrets too heavy for us to carry alone.

00:11Tonight's tale is about loneliness, loyalty, and what lurks behind a pair of trusting eyes.

00:19This is the story of a man and a dog.

00:22Sit down, get comfortable, and listen closely.

00:26Not all best friends are what they seem.

00:28Thomas lived alone in a small house at the edge of town.

00:34He was quiet, invisible to his neighbors.

00:37Just a tired man with a job he hated and an empty bed he never made.

00:43One rainy night, he found a stray dog curled under his porch.

00:48A big, black dog with matted fur and eyes too bright for the darkness.

00:53Thomas brought him inside, fed him scraps, wrapped him in an old blanket.

01:00When the dog looked at him, Thomas felt seen for the first time in years.

01:06He named him Shadow.

01:08In the weeks that followed, Thomas and Shadow became inseparable.

01:13They walked the same lonely streets every night, the dog patting close, never barking, never pulling away.

01:22Neighbors started to notice Thomas again.

01:25They smiled at him, commented on his beautiful dog.

01:29Shadow never growled, never bit.

01:31But sometimes, at night, Thomas would wake to find him sitting at the foot of the bed, staring at him with unblinking eyes.

01:41Once, Thomas swore he heard a voice when he drifted back to sleep.

01:47Good boy, or good man.

01:49He laughed it off in the morning.

01:52Maybe he just needed sleep.

01:54One night, a man tried to break into Thomas' house.

01:58Thomas froze in his kitchen, clutching a knife.

02:02But Shadow moved first, a black blur, teeth flashing in the dark.

02:08There was a scream, a crash, then silence.

02:11The intruder vanished, leaving only blood on the porch and a trail that led into the woods.

02:18Shadow returned to Thomas, tail wagging, tongue warm against his trembling hand.

02:24Thomas didn't call the police.

02:25He buried the memory deep.

02:28From that night on, he trusted Shadow with everything.

02:32His safety, his secrets, his fears.

02:35But Shadow was changing.

02:37He grew larger, too large for the small house.

02:41His eyes seemed brighter, his fur darker, his paws silent on the creaking floors.

02:48Thomas found himself confiding in the dog, whispering old regrets.

02:53Drunken confessions at 3 a.m.

02:57Shadow listened, always watching, tail flicking slowly.

03:02Sometimes, Thomas woke with scratches on his arms.

03:07Not bites, just marks like claws had traced his veins.

03:12He told himself it was nothing.

03:14But at night, the dreams came, of teeth, fur, and a voice that said,

03:20We're the same, you and I, one stormy night.

03:24Thomas heard scratching at the door, not from Shadow, but from something outside.

03:30Shadow sat by the window, staring at Thomas, instead of the noise.

03:35Thomas opened the door.

03:37Another dog stood there, identical to Shadow, but dripping wet, eyes dull.

03:43It collapsed at his feet, its fur falling away in clumps.

03:48Thomas turned to Shadow, but the dog was gone.

03:53In its place stood a figure, tall, lean, eyes shining like a predator's in the lightning flash.

04:00It spoke in a voice that filled the room.

04:03I kept you safe, I fed on what you gave me.

04:07Now, we are one.

04:09Thomas ran, but the house stretched on forever.

04:13Hallway after hallway, each wall covered in deep scratches, fur and teeth in the shadows.

04:21He saw himself in the mirrors, changing, growing dark patches of fur along his arms,

04:28his teeth sharper when he screamed.

04:31You were lonely, you called me.

04:33You fed me with fear and secrets.

04:36The figure stepped closer, half man, half beast, a shadow of Thomas himself.

04:42Now stay, be loyal, be more than alone.

04:47When the neighbors found the house weeks later, it was empty, except for muddy paw prints that

04:53never dried.

04:54They say sometimes, late at night, a big black dog can be seen walking alone on Thomas' street.

05:02Fur slick, fur slick, eyes too bright.

05:04It stops by dark porches, sniffs at lonely windows.

05:10Some say, if you let it in, it will keep you safe.

05:14Some say you'll never be alone again.

05:16But remember, loyalty has a cost, and sometimes the thing that guards you the closest is the

05:23thing that wants you the most.
