Good and evil fight over a werewolf.
 



It was nearing dawn when he came upon the clearing. The moon was full
and the sky clear that night and there was not a sign of anything about 
that he could see, smell or hear. Yet he could sense something, 
something that he did not like. He was a creature of darkness and was 
afraid of nothing, yet this scared him and also drew him as it had 
drawn him to the clearing in the first place. The feeling of serenity 
and peace that flowed from this place pulled on some deep inner part of 
him, a part that his animal mind could not comprehend, a part that 
wanted the peace that this place promised. The Werewolf stepped out 
from the cover of the trees his yellow eye's scanning the area for any 
sign's of danger and finding none. These where eye's that could see in 
the dark as if it where a clear day, slanted like a cat's but without 
compassion or feeling only a look of hunger and hatred that had been 
the last thing many a poor soul had seen. The creature walked on it's 
hind leg's and although no taller than a man was enough to strike 
terror into the heart of the bravest warrior. The course brown hair did 
little to hide the bunched up muscles that could snap a man's neck like 
a twig or cover the claw's on his finger's that could rip out a man's 
heart. Yet these where nothing compared to the face, a slight muzzle 
sat under those horrible yellow eyes hiding canines that were nearly an 
inch long. He snarled and bared his fang's to warn whatever was out 
there that he was not to be messed with but still he could see nothing. 
So he stepped forward into the centre of the clearing, the monster's 
mind not knowing why only knowing that it would kill and devour 
whatever showed itself. When the light appeared above his head the 
werewolf just stood transfixed looking up into the air. Then it started 
to happen, the muscles began to relax and the hair started to recede 
and the man beneath began to emerge. Within moment's the hair was 
almost gone, the eye's had returned too normal and the creature had the 
look of a man who had found paradise. "NO" shrieked a voice deep and 
angry that shook the whole forest and suddenly a man stood in the 
clearing. A tall man in a long black cloak, handsome with jet-black 
hair and eyes that burned red. He held out his hand and darkness leapt 
forth and hit the Beast full in the chest halting the cleansing process 
dead. "I will not let you destroy my creation," shouted the man "And I 
have seen your evil destroy enough men and it stop's here," replied the 
light. And so the fight was started between God and Satan over the 
possession of a man. At first it swung one way and then the other 
neither wanting to give in and neither wanting to destroy the 
man/werewolf either. But after several minutes the strain started to 
show on the man/werewolf as he started to twist in agony his very 
fabric being torn apart. "Look " shouted Satan "he's dieing, see if I 
care there are plenty more out there ". Then the werewolf started to 
impose itself again the fang's returned and so did the hair. Satan 
pushed harder trying to win now at all cost's nothing else mattered. 
The werewolf grew bigger now, stronger, much larger than it had been 
before, over seven feet tall a longer snout, a chest a fully-grown man 
could not put his arms around and bicep's like tree trunks. Then the 
battle ceased and the werewolf fell face down exhausted. Satan looked 
up to the light and laughed, "look's like I win ". "We shall see," 
replied the light, "You really shouldn't mess with my undead you know" 
"How about a deal" "Go on " "I won't destroy your undead, if you don't 
make any more, just let them run their course." Satan looked down at 
his most powerful undead yet asleep on the floor and laughed. "I agree, 
" he shouted before disappearing his laughter still echoing through the 
woods. "We will see who has the last laugh" said the light as it to 
faded away. The werewolf awoke several minutes later and looked out 
upon the clearing but this time it was different this time he looked 
out with the eyes of a man.
