Chapter 4
Daniel slowly opened his eyes to see that he wasn't in a dark and terrible room, but he was in a hospital. He slowly turned around and his arm was throbbing, but he swallowed the pain and saw that there was a Black Raven on the pillows head. He slowly got up and looked around.
So this is the Raven Clan huh he thought interesting and then Daniel slowly got off the bed and saw that his clothes where on the stand right next to him. Newly washed and dried, but if his clothes were there then. Daniel looked down and saw that he was in a black hospital gown, but thankfully there was no one around to see how red he was at the moment. He looked around for a bathroom and saw that it was on the far left side of the room, so he grabbed his clothes and went to it to change. When he was changed and after he used the bathroom, Daniel went back over to the bed and tossed the gown onto it before opening the door and going outside. Then he remembered about Lucy and he looked up to see that there were multiple hospital wings. He checked each one and then went down stairs and checked the lower lever ones, but when he got to the last one his heart went down a little when he saw that the person that he was supposed to guard wasn't there.
"She's not going to be in here, or the other ones" a voice that Daniel didn't recognize said form behind him.
"Then where is she" Daniel asked before taking a quick peak at his arm to see if they redressed it, and then he sighed when he saw that it wasn't messed with "I am supposed to be protecting her or bringing her to my clan for something"
"I'm sorry, but it's too late for that" the man said making Daniel look at him confused and a little worried "she was bitten when you both were abducted, but you can't see her. No one can"
"Bitten" Daniel asked "I thought that they just captured her for later turning"
"No" the man said sadly "the council is deciding what to do with her now, but you need to go back home and forget that this ever happened, and your clan has already been notified, but we didn't tell you if you were here too otherwise--"
"Otherwise they would be here to take me home, but what did you tell them to actually make them believe it" Daniel said
"We told them that you felt like you failed them, and were going to take a week off before going back" he said and it was correct, Daniel did feel like he failed them, but e couldn't go back until the full moon Eclipse was over tomorrow. The man left Daniel standing there, but after three minutes of thinking what to do Daniel left and started to leave the clans land, but he didn't leave the state just yet because he knew that if they were going to kill her they were going to make it public to destroy the ancient vampire and lure him to them, but if they were to do that then a-lot of hunters were going to die. Daniel went to the board that was at the entrance of the clans territory, and he saw that they were going to have the execution, but it was going to be on the night of the full-moon eclipse.
Daniel looked at it and then put his hands on the back of his head and paced for a second, but then he decided that if he went in and killed the monster that turned the person that he was supposed to be guarding. Then he was going to need all of the power that he could get, so he went to an apartment that the clan had rented a room for him for his stay, and we took the time preparing, exercising, and trying to get used to the constant and worsening pain in his arm that had now spread to his lower legs and his entire chest, back, and the rest of his body. It was the night before the final eclipse and Daniel was sitting on his bed trying to bear the pain, but he was still close to just collapsing on his bed in pain and blacking out from it.
It was dark out and Daniel was just sitting in his bed, trying to sleep, but it wouldn't come with this stupid pain that was going through out his body. Then two sets of steps came to his door and stopped just before it, but they didn't knock, they didn't try the door, but they just stood out his door seemingly looking at it.
"What should we do" a female voice said "we can't knock or it will wake em up, but we can't just walk in and expect em not to kill us"
"Well we could do this your way by thinking of what to do" a male voice said and Daniel got his guns from under his pillow and set them in his lap while he watched the door, and then it came flying open and Daniel jumped off from his bed and went over to the window aiming the guns at the door "or we could see what happens when the door is forced open" the man said looking at the woman who was just staring at Daniel's guns in fear.
"I don't think we surprised him" she whispered out of the side of her mouth as the man looked at Daniel and then we ducked and hid behind the door frame pulling the woman along with him, and then he pulled out a shield as Daniel quietly opened the window.
"Look we just want to talk" he said and Daniel suddenly realized why they were so fearful of him. They were werewolves, and they had come to either kill him, recruit him and make them apart of their pack, or they were seeing if we was going to become a rouge. Which Daniel was planning on doing because if he was a hunter and he could not join forces with one of the things that he kills.
"Wait if he is a hunter then why isn't he dead right now, from the others finding out that he was bitten by one of us" the female caught on and the male froze for a second before entering the room to see the curtains fluttering in the wind and the bitten hunter no where to be seen.
"If we is a turning werewolf and the next full moon is when" the male asked turning to the woman
"On the full moon Eclipse" she said a little fear fully and they both looked out into the dark fearing what Daniel is going to become, and as a rouge he would be even more dangerous than anything else.
"We need to find him, and soon" the male said before turning and leaving the room with the woman hot on his heels.
"You'll never find me" Daniel whispered listening from underneath them "or you'll end up just like the wolf that bit me" and then he walked along the building and into the forest behind it, and he walked for miles before settling down on a tree, and finally getting some rest unlike when he couldn't in the apartments. The branch that Daniel was sleeping on shifted down from the muscle weight that Daniel had gained from exercising making Daniel shift in the tree, and then the base of it cracked waking Daniel up with a start before the branch fell with a screaming Daniel just above it. He landed on the tree and a piece of wood embedded itself into his arm, and Daniels screams went through the entire forest.
He slowly sat up and gripped the piece to pull it out and then he braced himself and pulled it out, and another scream echoed through out the forest and the smell of fresh blood coated it for miles making some wolves sniff in it's direction and start heading towards the wounded prey. Daniel got up with his shoulder bleeding furiously, and then he fell and screamed again as his entire body racked with pain, but his shoulder felt much better. He lifted his shift to see that the wound which was at least a foot wide and all the way to his arm's bone was only the size of a quarter, and Daniel watched as it disappeared completely, and then a couple of howls echoed through out the forest.
Daniel recognized them as the regular howls of the grey wolves, and they were getting closer by the second. He looked into the sky and saw that it was almost midday, and the moon was already starting to cover the sun. Daniel fell to the floor again in much more pain than yesterday, but he gritted his teeth and bit his tongue to keep from yelling again. Then he started to walk back to the building slowly, and not even trying to hide the unimaginable pain that was going through out his body.
He saw red and blue lights and some cops where going through the things in his room, and one of them held up his rifle as he went to the window. He looked out and a howl echoed through out the forest again, and in fear he dropped Daniel's rifle and backed away from the window as he ran through the place telling people to block their doors, and get as far away as they could from them. Daniel hobbled over to his gun and strapped it to his back just as a large grey wolf came running into the street. It looked at him and growled before stalking forward slowly eyeing it's prey.
Daniel looked at the sky again and the moon was almost covering the sun, and the wolves seemed to see this too. They looked at the sky too and seemed to falter a little, and then they looked at Daniel who was now on the floor writhing in pain. The bigger wolf howled and they all went away leaving the man-turning-wolf to destroy everything that was around him. Daniel's pained scream went through the empty and silent forest, street, and building as we shook from the pain on the floor. There were other pained screams that were far off, but they all didn't add up to the pain, agony, and loneliness that Daniel was in at the moment.
His body started to grow, and grow until it was the size of a house, but almost twice as long as the hair follicles on his body started to shoot out and change color till they were black as the day was under the eclipse moon. His mouth, teeth, legs, arms, and hands grew and expanded until they were almost as thick as a hundred year old tree's trunk, and then paws started to form at the end with three foot claws that were sharper than even diamond. A half hour passed and the sun was just starting to show behind the moon, and Daniels transformation was finished, and his clothes lay in shreds right next to him, and his rifle lay in pieces under him. Daniel's eyes opened to show that they were completely black, but there was a glowing silver pupil hidden inside of the dimmed silver third eye-lid. The area that was supposed to be white was a black void that surrounded a silver star, and his teeth were sharp silver razors gleaming under the eclipse moon.
Daniel slowly got up huffing from exhaustion from the change, but the feeling soon went away as his new body gave him extra strength and power as he stood. A door opened and a police man came out to see if the wolves were still out there, and Daniel hid in the shadows of the house making the sheath of his third eye-lid slide over his eyes. The man slowly got out his gun and checked around the corner, but couldn't see anything but the shadows and his car. So he put his gun away and went back inside to get some eclipse glasses to watch the rest of the eclipse peacefully. Daniel slowly backed out of the shadows and then ran as the door closed creating sparks in the street's pavement, and creating claw mark dents inside of it as he ran along the road to the Raven Clans territory.
As Daniel ran the trees bent in his direction like a magnet, and then the gate came into view and Daniel could see the floodlights of the execution coliseum. He let out a large bark and the gates in-front of him as well as the pavement under him cracked apart and split as the sound wave went through it. Daniel went left and slowly traveled in the shadow's to the coliseum, and then he smelled something that had such a big stench that it gave him a little headache. The vampire was inside of the coliseum, but Daniel couldn't try to search for him without being seen. He slowly went around the building smelling for where the stench was the worst at, but it seemed to be all over the coliseum and not just one place. Then it clicked, they wasn't just one vampire here, almost the entire place was filled with them, but they were waiting for something. A signal maybe, or just for her to appear in-front of them before they attacked and killed everyone.
