CW: Animal Transformation, weight gain [sorta], human testing

Giorno Giovanna was walking down the streets of Italy, minding his business until he got struck in the head by something. That was all Giorno remembered before blacking out.  

The 15-year-old woke up on a hard metal table limbs held down by clamps, making it hard to move. 

"Ah, so you're finally awake." A sinister voice asked, coming out of the shadows, revealing a green haired man. He was wearing a dirty lab coat, which was stained with what looked like blood. "Wh-where am I? What are you going to do to me?" The blonde squeaked as he tried to squirm out of his restraints.  

"Oh don't try to escape, boy. You're stuck. Now then, Secco, please film this. If you get some good shots, I'll give you some sugar cubes~" The man purred. As he said that a low muffled bark was heard from the corner. It was a terrifying sight. From the corner was a dog human hybrid, dressed in a burlap sack that was sewn to look skin tight.

He held a camera in one paw, or was it a hand? This creature, Secco as the scientist called him, had thumbs like a human, but sharp claws where nails should have been. In his other claw was a syringe filled with a clear liquid. "You have my special serum! Such a good boy you are." The green haired man cackled, giving the dog hybrid chin scratches and a handful of sugar cubes. "Aaah, you got me a little lamb. I think it's fitting for this boy, he should have known better than to wander off on his own, when he could be snatched from his herd by a hungry wolf." 

Giorno's eyes widened as the syringe moved closer to his neck, giving him a prick. "I've had a craving for roast lamb, oh I'm only joking. Although you leave and I'll sick Secco here on you! Once he's bitten a hybrid, he will get a taste for blood." 

The blonde squirmed and struggled as much as he could, he wanted to get as far away from this deranged man as possible. Metal dug into his skin as he flailed about, he screamed once the contents in the syringe emptied into his bloodstream. He could feel his hair fluff up further. "How intriguing, results already? It seems your panicking is making that sheep DNA pass through your system even faster, must be the increased heartbeat. Secco! Get me my notebook." 

Giorno would have cussed him out, only for a sheep bleat to come out of his mouth.

"My, the transformation is almost complete!" The scientist exclaimed as he wrote down everything that was happening. Giorno could feel his hands harden into hooves as he became more sheep like. All the shock caused by transformation caused him to pass out. 

"Ah, seems like this lamb couldn't handle it. No problem, now which cage to put him in...?" The green haired man stated before carrying him to the pens.  

After twenty or so minutes, the Lamb boy reawaked in a dirty pen, with a variety of other animal hybrids. "Holy crap, how many people did that mad man turn?" The blonde thought as he saw the other hybrids. "Looks like there's a new guy." The goat hybrid stated. "Wha- How come I can understand you?" 

"Hybrids can understand other hybrids. We just can't be heard by humans." An alpca hybrid stated. "So, what's your name?"  

"Giorno..." The blonde stated.

A much larger hybrid awoke from the sound of the meek sheep, the figure jiggled as he stood up, it was like the ground shook with each step he took. Giorno squeaked and backed away as the figure grew closer. It was a massive pig man with black hair, dark eyes looking down at the teen. "You're just a boy, he has gone too far this time." Was all he said. 

While he looked serious, there was something comforting about the half man, half pig. He curled up on the soft hay, it would take a while for him to get used to his new form. "Why did this happen to me?" 

The older man took a seat, petting the lamb's wooly hair. "Ciccolato, that madman has experimented with animal DNA and wanted to create a new race of creatures as he put it. His first test subject was Secco, although I'm sure you've already seen him. There were two others, but no one knows what happened to them." The pig hybrid explained. 

Giorno looked up at the pig, huddling closer. "But he won't be doing this for much longer, we're breaking out. And he will pay for his crimes, with his life if it came to it." He declared, keeping the lamb close. "My name is Bruno, the alpaca is Fugo, and the goat is Mista." 

"I don't see much point, your last escape plan nearly turned you into bacon." Another large figure grumbled, his tail flicking angrily. He turned to look at the frightened sheep hybrid. "So, he decided you would be his latest experiment? Be glad he won't do anything worse to you, like Bruno and I. I can't remember the last time I even saw my feet."

"Why...? Why would he do this?" Giorno asked. "Dunno, either he's just a bored psycho, or he's trying to do something fucking weird." Mista stated. "Wha-" 

"Lemme explain. Cause if he's gonna use us as human livestock, it would be weird since he hasn't killed anyone yet, and like half of the hybrids here aren't even usable. Since I'm a guy, it's not like I can make Goat milk, same thing with Abbacchio." The goat man continued. "Like, you and Fugo can produce wool and shit, but I don't see the purpose on making us useless ass animals." 

Speaking of which, the green haired scientist returned to the cages, holding a bunny in his arms. "There we go. Your vitals are good and you're soon will be breedable in two years, and you know what they say about rabbits breeding." Ciocolatta laughed before walking off to the next set of cages.   

He was asleep, similar to Giorno when he was done being experimented on. "Is he alright?" the blonde sheep asked as he went to investigate the bunny boy's situation.

"Unharmed, but in a state of shock. Just like the rest of us." Bruno explained. "When he awakens, we'll have to explain what happened to him." The massive pig waddled forward, taking a seat as he waited for the rabbit hybrid to finally awaken. 

Giorno didn't know what else to do, so he sat beside the older man. Very soon a soft moan was heard from the bunny, his eyes fluttering open. "Oh my head.. Gah!!" He squeaked. 

His ears twitched as he sat up, scrambling onto his feet. "I was just minding my own business when that dog freak pulls me off the streets and sticks me with a needle! Now I'm surrounded by anthros?" The newest hybrid snapped. It was then he realized he wasn't exactly human anymore either. 

"Mister, it'll be alright-" 

"How can this be alright?! I'm some kind of bunny boy now?!" The rabbit grunted. "Am I gonna have to eat carrots and lettuce for the rest of my life?" 

"Well, technically carrots aren't good for rabbits since they have too much sugar-"

"That doesn't help!"

Speaking of food, trays with different dishes were sent out to the cages. Most of it was grass, with the occasional hay bale. "Ugh, guess it means I won't be getting a margarita pizza here, huh?" The rabbit mumbled. "Uh, I'm Narancia."

"Greetings Narancia. I'm planning an escape." Bruno said. "Hate to argue with you Bruno but, why should we?" 

All the hybrids looked at the alpaca for even suggesting the idea of giving up. "Fugo, why wouldn't we want to escape?!" Mista asked, completely confused at the thought of not getting the hell out of there. "I mean, I still have my memories of before this. And my life wasn't great. I don't want to go back to that. Besides, it's not like we'd be accepted back into society being hybrids, Bruno would probably be slaughtered and turned into prosciutto." Fugo explained. 

Bruno just listened to him. "I see... Well, we can't force you to break out if you really don't want to. But you can't stop us either." 

"I understand..." the alpaca stated. "Right, so I have a plan that involves the hybrids of the other pens." Bruno stated. "Really? I mean, not to be rude but what are two fish guys going to do to help us escape?" Mista asked. 

"There are fish people hybrids?" Giorno asked. "Yeah they're like mermaids, or more like Mermen, since Ciocolatta only seems interested in experimenting on men."

Abbacchio's tail twitched as he thought of them. "He's split the pens between those he injected with the DNA of common animals and those of more exotic fare. How someone as deranged as Ciocoletta was able to fuse a man with something like a walrus I will never know, my only guess is someone is funding his experiments from behind the scenes." 

Giorno didn't want to know who would do such a thing, all he wanted to do was to get as far away from the lab as possible. Although he was unsure of where to go once, he was out, he never knew his mother and his stepfather would treat him even worse than he already did. "Um, will we find a place to live? Is there a way to change back?" He mumbled. 

Bruno's face softened as he looked down at the lamb, scooping him up. "Abbacchio and I have found a tunnel under our pen, the only problem is it's flooded and freezing. We will need aid from the other prisoners, as much as we don't get along." He explained, gently petting the lamb's soft wool. 

Giorno calm as he remained in the arms of the pig, a sort of comfort he never had before. "Every night at nine, Ciocoletta leaves the lab and doesn't return until sunrise. Secco is ordered to patrol the pens with a camera, I will distract him while the rest of you find a walrus man named Ghiaccio. He should be able to make it to the end of that tunnel." 

"B-but what if he returns early?" 

Bruno looked down. "Revenge."

"Got it, I'll headbutt him in the balls so hard he'll be unable to breed!" Mista exclaimed. 

Soon it was 9:00 PM, which was the start of their plan. "Ah, guess it's quitting time. Well, see you tomorrow Secco~ Make sure nothing happens while I'm gone. If you do, I'll give you two handfuls of sugar cubes~" The green-haired scientist smiled and petted Secco before walking out. 

Secco barked as Ciocolatta left the building, already missing his master. But that doesn't stop him from going guard dog mode, patrolling the halls. "Okay, Secco's out on Patrol, how exactly are we gonna break outta here to talk to this Ghiaccio guy?" Narancia asked. This was then answered by Bruno ramming his fat body against the gate, wearing it down to the point of it breaking. "Ah, I see." 

However, this got the attention of Secco. "Huh? Is someone trying to escape? Grr... I thought we've been over this." He growled, putting the camera in his mouth and running on all fours towards the noise.

He growled the moment he saw the pig stand up, he was jiggling like a massive bowl of jelly from even the slightest bit of movement. But Bruno didn't worry about that now, he could handle any of Secco's scratches from the amount of blubber he gained over the years of living as a pig hybrid. He stomped forward towards the guard dog, bracing for impact as Secco lunged forward. 

With the guard dog too focused on fighting Bruno, Giorno, Narancia and Mista rushed off towards the exotic hybrid pens. "He should be somewhere around here, a walrus can't be too hard to m-" But before the goat hybrid could finish his sentence, he got sprayed with saltwater. 

A purple haired man leapt up from his pool, water coming out from the top of his head. He glared hard at the three hybrids. "What do you want? Haven't I suffered enough from Secco demanding I jump through hoops in front of his stupid damn camera?!" The man snapped. "Last time I nearly drowned because he thought I was a fish! He should know a dolphin's not a fish if he lives with that maniac of a biologist." 

Giorno shook the water out of his wool, then he turned towards the hybrid. "Bruno sent us, do you know someone named Ghiaccio?" He asked. 

"Oh? He needs our help? I've seen his last escape plan, he and that cow thought they could crawl through the air shaft. Ciocolatta wasn't happy about that, not one bit. I could hear them being stuffed all the way from my pen." The dolphin grumbled. "And I also overheard about that tunnel. I guess being part dolphin has some perks." 

"Sir, please. This plan might work, we just need to find this walrus." Giorno begged. 

The dolphin would have responded if another hybrid didn't pop up, he had a human face with two long tusks coming from his mouth. He was chubby but not nearly as large as Bruno, with cyan hair and glasses. "Melone? What does this lamb want?"
"Oh, Bruno wants you for his escape plan."

"Are you serious? Why should we help him?" Ghiaccio asked. "Uh, the escape, obviously. Do you want to stay here for all your life?" The goat exclaimed, trying to reason with the walrus man. "Honestly, I don't want to end up any fatter than I already am so even the chance of getting caught isn't appealing."

"Honestly, you should be lucky that Ciocolatta won't stuff you as punishment. He may be mad, but he's being choosy with what morals he has." Melone commented. "Besides, what exactly would Ghiaccio do on the outside? He'd probably get shot on sight for being a hybrid. In case you haven't realized, we aren't societies standards anymore." He added.

"You're giving up hope this early? Besides, there could be a way to fix us!" The bunny boy stated. "Oh? Are you some sorta Biologist?" The walrus man asked, silencing Narancia. "What's it going to take to convince you to help us?" The sheep asked.

"Grrr, I would like to know what happened to Sorbet and Gelato. They were taken before us and are somewhere around here, if you could find them maybe we can reconsider." Melone grunted. "Of course, that is if they're still alive. For all I know he turned them into rats and fed them to Secco over there." 

Giorno shivered at the thought. "We'll find them, they should be around here somewhere. We can split up and search." 

"You're really going through with this? We don't have time! What if Ciocoletta decides to return for some reason?" Mista snapped. 

"We'll just have to be quick, but we'll get nowhere if we just argue. This is what Ciocoletta wants I bet, to have us all fight when we should be working together to flee this place. Maybe we can even return to being full humans, but all of us need to cooperate." The lamb boy explained. "I know you're going to say it sounds corny, I might not have been in here as long as you all, but I'm not ready to just spend the rest of my life in a pen." 

Melone was taken aback by how passionate Giorno sounded, he was this determined to escape? "You really think so, huh? I admire the optimism, although I'd like to see how long it'll last."

Now the mission was to look for Sorbet and Gelato. "Guys there's only three of us, how is it fair to split us up?" Mista commented. "You're right. I'll go alone, Mista and Narancia you two go together." The lamb stated. "I- Are you sure?" 

 "Of course, I'll be back." Giorno stated before running off to investigate. He looked around, not really knowing where to go. 

 "Man, this place is huge, I don't even know where they would be stored." He thought, walking down the corridor. 

 But his venture was halted when he was startled by the sound of a hand slamming against slotted plexiglass. 

"Gah! Who's there?" Giorno asked as he looked at cage. Inside was a snake hybrid, with his lower half being turned into that of a snake. "I should be the one asking that, who the hell are you? Are you one of that doctor's guard dogs, or guard lamb?" 

"Uh... I'm looking for two men, um. Two hybrids, I assume they must be if they were taken here before any of you to this... hell house. We're breaking out tonight." 

The snake man hissed, slithering forward towards the boy. "You? You're not even a fully grown sheep, Secco would tear you apart and eat you bones and all." He sneered. 

"Well, it's a risk I'm willing to take. If it means at least those who were here longer than I was get to see daylight again." Giorno insisted. 

"Such strong words, and you barely even know those animals. I suppose I should tell you my name before you go off to your doom, it's Prosciutto." The snake man hissed. "And I suppose those two men you're referring to are Sorbet and Gelato, that couple. I wouldn't be surprised if what was left of them was fed to us, ground up and covered with enough grass so no one would know what happened." 

The lamb had to hold back a gag from that remark but stood his ground. "No, they should still be around here. If I can find any proof of them being left alive, it should be enough to motivate Melone to letting us have Ghiaccio." 

Prosciutto scoffed, laying against the glass. "You're loyal to your cause, I'll give you that. But if they're not dead, that madman may have given them a worse fate." He hissed. "Before Ciocoletta left he was carrying a bag of pellets into an old storage room, if they're in there-" 

But Giorno didn't wait for him to finish, he rammed headfirst into the door, breaking it off its hinges. Two low, painful moans were heard the moment he entered, it was a horrific site. One creature had cat ears with a scorpion tail, frog legs and dragonfly wings while the other was hunched over in a snail shell, clawing at the floor with hawk talons, on its nose was a rhino horn.

"S....Sorbet? Gelato?"  

The cat eared one looked at the lamb, letting out a low pain filled groan. The other was letting out cries of shame and torture, it seemed like neither of them could speak anymore. Using the little strength he had, Sorbet dragged himself to Gelato, gently rubbing his shell. 

"Jesus, they're suffering..." Giorno thought as he looked at the two creatures. One might have just mercy killed the two onsite, but not Giorno. The lamb had to help them, help them return to normal.  

However, since the door was opened and was across the way from the naga's tank, Prosciutto saw the two beings. "Wha... What did he do to them?!" He exclaimed. This got the attention of the tank next to him. "Big bro what's wrong?" A koi man asked, being unable to see the storage room from his tank.  

"Pesci! The bastard that fucked us up turned sorbet and gelato into unholy things, truly abominations to God!" Prosciutto hissed. "Wait they're alive?" 

"Alive but suffering, we have to share this to the others." the Naga stated turning to the cage to his left.

"Wow... They're really alive. Y-you don't think that madman would do it to us, right?" Pesci mumbled. "What if he decides one animal isn't enough for his experiments?"

Prosciutto bared his sharp fangs at the thought. "No, they were Ciocoletta's first and its clear they didn't turn out the way he wanted. Why else would he keep them locked away with no one to gaze upon them while his lapdog films us plenty?" 

He turned back to Giorno, the lamb had offered a portion of his wool to the monstrous hybrids, just so they had something soft to lay on before he left. "That boy, he really thinks we're all going to escape?" He muttered. 

Pesci swam closer to the snake man's pen as best he could, his eyes widening at the state of Sorbet and Gelato. "I'm not the bravest hybrid here, but if those two aren't dead, who knows what other miracle might happen?" He added. 

Prosciutto sighed, he slithered towards a ventilation shaft beside his pen. It was his way of moving from pen to pen once Ciocoletta was out, but there was one pen he rarely entered. A massive hippo hybrid grumbled as he sat in his pen, tearing up the grass in his food bowl. "Risotto..." 

The hippo man grunted. "What is it now? Did Pesci get his fins caught on some weeds again?" 

"No, it's Sorbet and Gelato they... They're alive. Some lamb boy found them." 

"Lamb? One of Bruno's crew no doubt, thanks to that pig I'm huge! I told him we should have tried changing back before leaving."

"I know, but I mean I don't believe him and his plan on getting outta here, but the fact Sorbet and Gelato are alive is just shocking and I thought you should know." 

"Hey, stop dick riding Risotto and let me hear this plan." A voice called. "Formaggio..." 

A medium sized man with bat wings for arms appeared out the vent Prosciutto entered. "You're not the only one who uses the vents. Anyway, spill the details on the escape plan." Formaggio said. "Listen, I don't know anything about the plan, but newbie from Bruno's crew said he was planning something that involved Ghiaccio." The snake man explained. 

"Ah, well, guess I should talk to him and Melone then." The bat man stated before going back through the vents to the dolphin and walrus' cage. For some reason, Ciocolatta put Ghiaccio and Melone in the same cage, yet no one else, probably grouping them on their aquatic vibes.

"So, Sorbet and Gelato are still alive? Hard to believe, but Prosciutto claims he saw it with his own eyes." The hippo hybrid grunted. He then turned to the farm animal hybrids. "Fine, if this is our only ticket out of here, Ghiaccio can go with you. But if this goes wrong, I will have all your heads for it!" 

The walrus man was being carried by the entire team towards the farm animals' pen, Bruno was sitting right on top of Secco to keep him from catching up with the rest of the hybrids. "Abba, open up the trapdoor. Ghiaccio, you'll make it to the end." 

Risotto grumbled as he watched the walrus hybrid take orders from the pig. Giorno shuffled by the massive pig, wary that at any point the hippo could attack them. "He really doesn't like you." He mumbled to Bruno. "Did something happen between you?" 

The massive pig scooped him up, letting him get comfortable. "Our first escape attempt didn't end so well, Ciocoletta punished us by treating us like the supposed fat animals we were. He wanted us to be too fat to even move." 

"Worked a bit too well if you ask me." Abbacchio grumbled, waddling beside him. "I couldn't move an inch until Bruno rolled me up to my feet. Risotto didn't take it well."

"Why? because Bruno caused him to get fat or because he helped you instead of him?" Narancia asked, assuming that Risotto and Bruno had a romantic history and that Bruno and Abbachio were an item. This causes both a Abbacchio to blush a little. "Well, most likely the former since I don't think Risotto likes Bruno the way I do-" 

"You like like Bruno?" Narancia asked, only to get bonked lightly in the back of the head by Mista. "Narancia, we don't have time for that, we have to help.""Oh yeah. I mean I don't know how we can help, but I have an idea. We should just kill Ciocolatta." Narancia said. "Wha- Are you serious?" 

"I mean, yeah. We don't know what he did, he may have put trackers in us." The bunny stated as he thought about it. "The rabbit has a point. If he put trackers in us, it wouldn't matter if we escape. If that mad bastard is alive he'd just track us down." Risotto said.

As the animals were all talking, they didn't notice Secco had managed to squirm his way out of Bruno's fat rolls and towards a phone. He punched in the numbers as fast as he could, growling as he reached none other than Ciocoletta to warn him of the breakout. 

The scientist didn't wait another second, just hearing Secco growl he could tell something went wrong. "So, that pig wants to try again? Well, I'll just have to stuff him up so much he'll need to be kept in an entire new building from how huge he is!" 

He grabbed his bag loaded with vials full of DNA and a taser to knock them out. "From the footage it appears that little lamb is attached to the pig, it would be shame for him to watch as his new father figure exploded." He hissed, driving towards the lab. "You all stop right there!" 

Formaggio was just above the doorframe, eyes widening the moment the scientist returned. He flapped as hard as he could to warn everyone. "He's back, there's no time for us to escape!" He squeaked. 

Bruno growled as he got to his feet, helping Abbacchio up. "How about we give him a taste of his own medicine?" He smirked towards the blushing cow man. 

"Uh, you mean-" 

The pig simply nodded, jiggling his belly around. "I did say we would get revenge if we couldn't escape after all."

"Great, and I have just the plan to get him." 

Meanwhile, the scientist was running down the corridors, taser ready to strike. However, he trips on something. "Gah! I thought I picked up the floor before I left. I bet those damn animals made a mess..." Ciocolatta groaned before feeling something sliver around his leg. 

"Yeah, an animal made a mess alright, but it ain't one of us." A voice stated. It was Prosciutto, using his tail to contract Ciocolatta's body. "Now, tell us how to get back to normal or else I'll have to use my fangs on you." 

"Heh, I know you Prosciutto, I know you don't have the balls to bite me." Ciocolatta sneered. The snake man glared at him before biting him and dragging him to the others. "So, you're plan worked, sort of, but what exactly do we do with him. Like I know you said you're getting revenge but, how?" 

"We'll take him to the feeding room." Bruno stated simply before waddling, leading the way to the room. 

Ciocoletta was now the one squirming as the massive pig strapped him down to the very table he once laid on. A hose connected to a ten gallon tub of pure heavy cream was just above the mad scientist, making its way into his mouth. "You had the mercy to split this tub between me, Abbacchio and Risotto, but we won't be so kind." 

Ciocoletta squirmed as hard as he could against the straps, his belly swelling quickly before his very eyes. His ass grew larger and rounder next, in fact it was bloating up faster than his belly. In a matter of seconds his ass spilt out over the sides of the table, cracking it in half. His thunder thighs were nothing to ignore either, jiggling and wobbling helplessly as more cream filled him out. "S-stop!" He pleaded, although it fell on deaf ears. The hybrids watched as the man who mutated them finally got a taste of his own medicine. 

Two minutes passed and Ciocoletta had fully emptied out the tank, transforming him into nothing more than a massive blob of pure fat. "Gah!! Arrgh, even if I wanted you all to become human I only have two human DNA samples with me." He growled, letting out a massive burp once the feeding session was over. 

That wasn't what Risotto wanted to hear, slapping Ciocoletta's massive belly. "How do we get more?"The blobby scientist moaned, jiggling from impact. "Human blood, remove DNA, condensed into serum." Was all he could say between smaller burps. "So? Who among you will be human again?"

This was a difficult question to answer. Everyone wanted to become human again, but who deserved it most. "Well, who's been here the longest?" Giorno asked. "I'm fine with being a lamb, since I can just cover up my sheep parts, so I am willing to sacrifice my humanity for the sake of the others." 

"Damn, same here. I mean, I might need to get colored contacts to cover up my goat eyes but, hey, it's for a good cause." Mista stated. "How about Bruno and Abbacchio?" 

"That wouldn't be fair to us!" Melone exclaimed. "True... Wait, Ciocolatta, is it possible to give human DNA to a hybrid to make them more human even if they have multiple animal dna in them?" The lamb asked. "Yes- URP! But they wouldn't be completely human." The scientist burped. 

Prosciutto knew where this was going. "Are you suggesting we give the DNA to Sorbet and Gelato?" The snake asked. "Yes, but so they can function. They've been suffering for so long in silence, so it's only fair for them to live without pain." Giorno responded

There was no arguing with that, the couple had been locked away from humanity longest and just now were discovered to have been alive. It was clear if anyone deserved to become human again, it was them. "Well then, lead the way, Giorno." Bruno softly said, giving the lamb boy a pat on his head. 

The two monstrous hybrids were still huddled together in the storage room, looking up the moment they heard loud footsteps approaching. They didn't expect Giorno to return so soon, although they shuddered when they saw him with two needles. "It's okay.. This is to help you." He assured them, slowly approaching with a hoof held out. 

Bruno stood back; in case he would have to keep them held down. However, Sorbet and Gelato seemed to comply easily as the lamb boy injected them with the human DNA. Gelato groaned as his shell broke apart, revealing a normal looking back aside from a couple scars. His horn shriveled down into a human looking nose, although he still had slight talons at the tips of his fingers. 

Sorbet's tail shrank and shriveled until it completely vanished, his wings broke off and he found himself able to stand upright. His cat ears twitched as he stared at the boy. "W... Why?." Was all he could utter out. 

"You've lived in pain for years, probably even decades. You both deserve to live somewhat normal lives again." Giorno responded. "Don't worry about us." He assured them. 

The recently transformed hybrids stumbled forward, making their way down the hall. Now there was just one question left. "Giorno? Won't your parents be.. well, surprised to see you now?" Bruno asked.The lamb went silent. "Uh.. I.. I don't really have any."

"You don't?" 

"I don't, they abandoned me when I turned 14." Giorno explained. "Ah, I see... Well, if you don't mind, I can be your parent." Bruno smiled softly as he held a hoof out for Giorno to take. "Ah- Are you sure?" 

"Of course, you're just a boy after all. You need a father figure." The pig stated in response, softly petting the lamb's soft wool, which felt rather comforting to him. "So, guess we're just going to live together now." Narancia interrupted their bonding moment. "I guess so. We're like a big found family. And Bruno's the mom, and Abbacchio's the dad." Mista commented. 

This causes both of the bloated livestock hybrids to blush. "I mean, um... I could be your dad, I guess. If Bruno wants that." The cow spoke as he looked away. "Abba?" The cow hybrid blushed more as he felt a hoof cup his face. "Do you have feelings for me?" The pig asked, looking into the other hybrid's eyes.

Abbacchio didn't immediately respond, he just stared right into Bruno's eyes. He wanted to be lost in them forever, he was only brought out of his trance when he noticed his tail was wagging. "Erm, ever since we met. I was at my lowest point when that madman transformed me, but I knew I could always have your shoulder to lie on. But I didn't think you'd like me back.. I'm just some former policeman who couldn't even hold down his own job." He mumbled. 

Now it was Bruno's turn to blush, leaning forward to squeeze Abbacchio's love handles. The pair finally leaned in forming a kiss. "What's not to love about you? Your soft, smooth voice, your devotion to the entire family. Now we can all remain together. The countryside has an abandoned farmhouse, we can make that location our home." The pig purred, squeezing the cow's soft cheeks. 

The exotic hybrids went on their way too, going down the tunnel and finding a grotto by the seaside. There was plenty of fish for them to eat and passing ships would often lose crates of produce nearby. There was only one hybrid missing, Fugo. 

While he was reluctant to leave the lab, he didn't want to be alone either. The alpaca hybrid decided to join the found family out in the countryside. He felt safer with the massive pig and cow to protect everyone. "As long as the public doesn't find out." 

The large couple scooped up the smaller hybrids, walking off to the farmhouse. Bruno smiled as he watched Giorno curl up in the hay, he took Abbacchio's hand and kissed it. "We'll get this placed fixed up tomorrow."
