A Painful thing

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Its first strike of the club had only narrowly missed his head. This was not a normal ogre, it was an large Ogre lord bigger than Zeth had seen before. And it was smarter than a normal Ogre also. For as it missed with its massive club. and the wolve had flinched back. The Ogre had brought a kick with its massive foot, the foot had caught the wolf just behind his front leg. The force of the blow had broken ribs, and had sent the wolf flying into the air. A large tree had stopped the wolfs flight thur the air but only added more broken ribs. As the wind had left Zeths lungs he had felt the familiar changes coming over his body as the transformation began. This puzzled Zeth for he was already in his wolf form.
It was as if Zeth jumped out of his body an watched as the beast appeared, it was the first time Zeth had gotten a good look at the beast. It had the furless head of a wolf, The muscler body or a wolf, but its front legs were those of a rat. Right behind the front shoulders where a pair of wings, Zeth could see that they where too short to provide the creature with the ablity to fly. It's hind legs where those of a creature with great power and the feet had long talons for claws. The tail was long and smooth covered with scales.
Zeth watched as the creature stood and faced the Ogre, it opened its mouth to reveal large fangs like a serpent and also the sharp teeth of a wolf. It roar was something that sent shivers down Zeths spine. As the Ogre came closer, the beast sent a large flame out of his mouth right into the ogres face. then it struck the ogre in the leg with its mouth injecting the large ogre with venom. Zeth watch as the ogre press forward, blinded by the fireball it swung its club as it came forward. the beast set itself and with great power leap into the air it spread its wings and as it got just over the ogres head it attacked with its back talons, scratching and clawing at the ogres head and face. It landed hard behind the ogre and crumpled to the ground. As the ogre rubbed at the gashes on his face the creature regained his legs and wheeled around for another strike. this time it stayed lower to the ground and charged. Its teeth ripped into the back of the ogres lower leg. Muscles and tendons gaveway under the pressure of the creatures jaw. The ogre screamed in pain as his large leg could no longer hold his massive wieght, and he crumpled to the ground. The creature backed off from the ogre and collasped. Zeth could see blood comeing from its mouth as it labored for breath. Zeth felt himself being pulled back into the creature and when he openned his eyes it was wolf eyes he was seeing thruogh once more. Zeth was in great pain and he crawled off in his wolf form.
That had been a day ago Zeth now lay in wolf form in his cave. it hurt to breath and every now and then he would cough up blood. He knew that if he could only transform back to human form he could use his skill in necromancy to heal some of his wounds, but everytime he tried the pain would block his transformation.
All Zeth could do was to lie there and hurt and think.

I have no one to blame for this but myself, if I had just left well enough alone. If I had just been happy being the way I was and not so surefired in a hurry to better myself. I have not bettered myself I have turned myself into a freak. Mixing different blood with my own Lycan blood maynot of been the best idea. You greedy fool, You had to have the wolf, you couldnt be happy with what you were you had to go and tamper to try to make things better. look at what it has cost you. That pour girl you transformed into who only knows what. then you took her life out of pity for her. The countless bodies that lay buried around umbra of those you exspermented on and had to kill. Look at Dae and what you have done to her. You called yourself giving her a gift. all you really did was curse her just like yourself. You made it so that she could never leave you even if she wanted to. You with your tampering with nature, made her even posions to here own off spring. Look at the pain you have caused her. You abandoned her once before when she needed you the most. And now here you are again snuck out in the middle of the night leaving her when she needs you the most. Why couldnt you have been happy the way you where Lycan and proud. No not many people even know of were rats, so you had to go and get the all famous werewolf, but even that wasnt good enough for you you had to go and start drinking that mixture of dragons blood to try and live forever, and look at what its got you. Out here laying in a gave away from all that you love with who knows what type injuries.
