Sharon followed Break and Gilbert cautiously, following at a distance so they wouldn't notice. It seemed to work, because the two seemed more focused on finding their way to the mission spot then paying attention to people following them. Just as the sun began to go down, they found another victim.
Sharon peeked out from her hiding spot behind a tree with a frown. What were they doing?
Break sighed, "Another victim. Those vampires just seem to dine and dash don't they?" "Yes, because they know we're hunting them." Gilbert grumbled in frustration. The vampires lived in a clan, it would make sense that they were taking turns at hunting with different members in different spots. It was hard hunting a clan of vampires with only a werewolf and one hunter and when you didn't have much evidence.
Sharon frowned at their words, Vampires? What were they talking about?!
As if to answer her question she was pinned down by a man who bore a pair of fangs. Sharon screamed as she was pinned down and the man grinned, about to sink his fangs into her neck when Gilbert and Break flung the vampire off her and attacked it with several stakes. The vamp was soon dead, no question about it.
Break's eye widened once he saw that the vampire's victim was none other than, Sharon. The person he hoped to hide his secret from the most. "Milady…what are you doing here?" The young noble was seething with anger and confusion as she yelled her reply at her knight. "What am I doing here?! What are YOU doing here?!" He cringed slightly at her words, but it was nothing he wasn't used to. "…Special Pandora assignments only me and Raven are capable of doing."
She frowned at that and narrowed her eyes, "Then why wasn't I told about it?" Break bit his lip, running a hand through his short white hair, "It's….a long story." She frowned and crossed her arms. "I have all night." Gilbert frowned, concern in his yellow eyes once he noticed the state of the moon, "Yes…but he doesn't."
Sharon looked confused "What do you mean?" While Break turned and saw the moon come out from behind the clouds at its fullest. There was no hiding now…
His heart beat faster as his eye widened in fear. The albino felt his entire body begin to burn. He grit his teeth in pain and collapsed to his knees with a grunt as the pain worsened. His teeth sharpened and lengthened into fangs, rearranging themselves in his mouth. His nails lengthened and curved into claws while his ears began to point and lengthen. Sharon watched him with alarm and worry, "w-what's happening to him?"
Gilbert looked down at her, a bit of sadness in his yellow eyes. "He's…a werewolf…he's turning into his…other form…" As the Nightray spoke these words, Break yelled out in pain as his bones began to shift under his skin. The knight was now on his hands and knees, gripping the ground with clawed hands that began to grow pads and fur. His feet changed shape and tore through his shoes, as they too grew pads and claws replaced his toenails. The white fur that had started on his hands, began to grow all over his body as his muscles rippled and bulged slightly, giving him more strength then before.
Sharon watched all this take place with wide eyes, "He's a…werewolf?" Gilbert nodded, "He just turned last week…I told him to tell you about his condition…but he kept refusing to."
As the two discussed, Break's transformation carried on. His shirt became too tight for his growing body and the seams ripped, unable to bear it any longer. Break grit his teeth in pain as a sharp pain hit his lower back and a long furry white tail sprouted forth just below the waist of his pants. He growled in anger and chocked a bit once his scarf became too tight as his neck thickened. He tore it free with his clawed hands, getting his breath once more.
Break was soon unrecognizable as the fur grew over his face and his ears moved to the top of his head and grew fur. His face began to stretch and lengthen into a muzzle as the finishing touches took place and the pain subsided. The large white werewolf remained on his hands and feet for a moment, panting from the pain.
Sharon remained silent as she stared at the creature before her, was that thing…could it really be Break? She stood still, not wanting to run, but not wanting to get closer either.
Raven looked down at her silently before approaching the white beast, and gently helping it stand. "Are you alright Break?" The werewolf nodded a bit, the pain had left his crimson eye, but not his worry. He met Sharon's violet gaze hesitantly, hoping she didn't fear him because she knew he was a monster now…
Sharon relaxed a bit upon seeing his eye, the one thing that had managed to stay human. She hesitantly approached the large wolf, "…Break?" He nodded a bit silently, confirming he was really her Break. She gently hugged the large beast. "Oh Break…" She said sadly.
Break relaxed at her acceptance and gently wrapped his furry, slightly muscled arms around her as he hugged her back. Sharon buried her face into his furry chest; he had kept his secret…this burden for so long…she hugged him tightly as she leaned into his warmth, "You should have told me…"
He regarded her with a soft whine, he was a fool….he should have known that despite how abusive his lady could be, she could be really kind and accepting…..such a fool he was to not come to her in times he needed her most…
Sharon looked up at him sadly, he looked so different…yet she knew he was still her Xerx-nii. He looked down at her and she smiled up at him gently, putting a hand to his furry cheek. "It'll be okay….."
