Her Transformation

Three days had passed and still Melanie was nonresponsive.

"Is she ever going to get well?" Will asked Grace who had been gone for awhile.

"I'm not sure," Grace answered looking at Melanie's sullen face.

"I can't do this without her," Will said sitting beside Grace and held Melanie's hand. "Do we really know what attacked her?"

"A werewolf for sure," Grace said pulling down the top of Melanie's nightgown. The scratches were no longer there. Grace and Will looked at her chest perplexed. "I swear those scratches were there."

"I know," Will said as he glanced down at Melanie's hand that he was holding. Her skin was peeling off, but when Will peeled it off he discovered that dark hair was growing underneath. Will let go of her hand and backed away and grabbed Grace. "Look at her hand."

"Oh my god!" Grace said and not a moment later did Melanie open her eyes and twist her head violently. Grace snapped her head to the window and opened the curtains to reveal a full moon. "Shit!" Melanie literally jumped out of bed and stood in front of Will and Grace with frightful yet evil eyes. Her brown eyes rolled into the back of her head and she sank to the floor. Will started to move closer to her, but Grace held him back.

"What's happening to her?" Will asked as Melanie's nightgown started to rip off her back.

"She's transforming into a werewolf," Grace said holding Will's hand tightly. Melanie's torn nightgown fell to the floor as she got up and faced them. Her ears rose to the top of her head and were elongated, hair appeared from everywhere on her body, her hands grew to an enormous size with claws five inches long, her legs began to grow as her height became staggering. Her nose lengthened into a snout with a large black wet nose, her jaw grew to accompany two rows of razor sharp teeth, her feet were large with five inch claws, her back was hunched, her stomach flattened, and the very last thing she did was sharpen her claws on the walls of her room. She turned around, but she did not attack Will or Grace, but instead she looked at her reflexion in the mirror. She growled and cracked the mirror. She turned, at lightning speed, toward Grace and Will who now seemed terrified to look her in the eye, but Will noticed that her eyes showed no signs of aggression. They showed fear and pain. Suddenly the werewolf dropped to the ground and skin started to appear again in patches, but some hair remained. Will looked outside and saw that the moon had been covered by the clouds.

Will ran over to Melanie and sat at her feet, "Are you alright?"

"What the hell is happening to me?" she asked in a shaky voice.

"You turned into a werewolf," Grace said as she glanced out the window and turned to Will, "you have twenty seconds."

"You are going to change again, but you mustn't kill anyone," Will said holding her hairy hand.

"Ten seconds," Grace reminded him.

"Promise me," Will said as hair started to cover her hand.

"I promise," Melanie said as Grace pulled Will away form her and she transformed back into a werewolf. Grace pulled Will aside as Melanie rushed to the window and leaped out into the darkness. She leaped out with such force that that the frame on the window shattered and exposed the frigid air.

"What now?" Will asked helplessly.

"Nothing," Grace said, "all we do now is wait."

"It is about time," Dracula said once Melanie had jumped through a high window. "I was worried that you weren't going to show up."

"I will never do your bidding," Melanie said her voice came through even though she was still a werewolf. "I will kill you."

"You can try," Dracula said smiling. He walked away leaving Melanie there to wait until the full moon had ended which was around five the next morning and then she slowly found her way back to her house. Will greeted her with enthusiasm, but she merely collapsed into his arms and fell asleep.

Will palced her in her bed and covered her with blankets to keep her warm.

"How is she?" Ryan asked holding Celeste in his arms and rocking her to sleep.

"I don't know," Will said running his fingers through his hair, "I don't know what to do for her."

"You can't do anything," Grace said from the corner of the room, "this is who she is. She will either live or die from it."

"What do you mean?" Aaron asked.

"A person who isn't a werewolf to start off with may have a hard time dealing with the transformation every full moon," Grace explained, "if she has a strong will to live then she will survive and remain a werewolf for enternity, but if her body rejects all these changes then she will surely die."

"What do you think will happen?" Will asked tears flowing from his eyes.

"I don't know," Grace said walking over to the door and opening it a crack to see how Melanie was doing. She closed it and went back to facing everyone. "With Mel, it's a toss up. It could go either way."
