Werewolf

Chapter 21

After all Eric had seen and done he could never get used to any of it. And now he was almost sure that Remy had killed that poor young woman he had just heard scream. But what if he hadn't? What if Eric could save her? Not much good to her though without any weapon made of silver. He had to know for sure though. So he took upon himself to run to where the sound had come from. He ran in what seemed like circles. It reminded him of the time he had been going in circles when he was following Grey Wolf. Grey happened to be a very old wolf who was more concerned in feeding for the night than tracking down and killing Remy, which was the idea Eric had in mind. This was a very different situation though. They couldn't have gotten very far in that short of time. Then he stumbled upon the entrance to an alley. Then he saw what had become of the innocent victim. She lay there lay almost unrecognizable as a large part of her one beautiful flesh was now missing. He then looked around for the wolf Remy had now become. He had seen Remy transform only once before and he never wanted to face that again. He barely escaped last time from that ordeal. He knew Remy had to be close though. Then all of a sudden he could feel his hot breath on the back of his neck. He was growling behind him.

"No, how can it be him? How can he be the sleepwalker?" Sadie asks this of Christian as she keeps her eyes on Chance.

Her would be boyfriend can do nothing save look at the both of them stunned.

"Don't you get it? For one thing a werewolf's blood is like poison for a vampire. He must have been about to transform or it wouldn't have affected Lacee. It had to be have been potent and ready for the change. And so it clashed with her own blood in her dead system. The wolf demon is stronger than the vampiric demon therefore causing her blood flow to manipulate itself within her. And on top of that she had him drink from her which would normally cause him to be made a vampire as well, only because he was already a werewolf the vampire couldn't live within him at the same time. This has never happened you see. No vampire has ever sired a lycanthrope. It's not supposed to happen and by all theories can never happen."

Finally Chance speaks up as he is listening to what has apparently happened to him.

"Look, I still don't understand this. All I know is that last night I was bitten by a werewolf and today I had the sign of the pentagram on my palm. Only now it seems to have gone."

He shows them his right palm, which is indeed clear from that mark. Sadie then looks over at Christian with a look of fear.

"Then it is true."

He nods. Chance finally gets up albeit a bit slowly as he still is feelings the effects of Lacee's attack.

"Look, why can't we just say that I'm not gonna be a wolf? At least not for tonight anyways."

"What your gonna be as you put is something far more dangerous."

"But that's crazy. I mean I feel fine now."

"But you're not."

Christian then slowly backs away and he casually grabs Sadie's right arm and backs her away with him.

"He's not the same person he used to be."

Sadie shakes her head but then notices something odd. Chance has his head down.

"Are you OK?"

She then loosens from the grip of Christian and goes to over to Chance.

"Babe? Are you OK?"

At that moment he slowly raises his head and his eyes are now pure white. The pupils are completly gone. This makes Sadie jump back in surprise. Then Chance looks up at her, but with a look of menace. Then he lets out a loud roar that frightens both the vampires. She looks to Christian but he has already fled. She then starts to run outside but Chance grabs her arm. Only what she feels on her arm aren't fingers. At least not human ones.
