Becoming Inhuman

Becoming Inhuman
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I had become so used to the Hessian Hex curse that I was enjoy it,   becoming the Hessian was great -  it made me feel powerful and strong,  like nothing could ever stop me from going on my rampage.

That is apart from one thing...having to revert to human form once the blood moon went back behind the cloud,   and not being allowed to drink blood when around Ariana,   I understand she was trying to look out for my safety so that I wouldn't kill anyone but she didn't understand what I was going through.

I needed blood in order to survive...to keep my strength up...the more I stayed as a human...the more I wanted to be the Hessian and to stay that way.   I didn't want to be cured.

One night I came to Eliza for help,    I knew if there was one creature who could do it - it would be her.

"Aaaargh...being human is horrible.  I can't stand it."

"Nathan...I know something that will make you feel better."

"Huh?  You do?"

"I know how much want to be the Hessian and that you desire the taste of human blood..and I know how to fix that."

"How?"

"I can take your humanity away.."

"You can?  But how?"

Eliza turned to me and picked up a large book of arcane spells and incantations, it looked similar to the Necronomicon.

"I've been reading this one book and saw that if I take away your human soul, then you'll be just the Hessian.. That's how it works for vampires."

"Will it hurt?"

"Hm.. I don't think so.."

"How does this work exactly?"

"Um.. well...it is very complex."

The book appeared in Eliza's hand as she floated in mid air and flicked through the pages,   trying to think what page it was one.

"Okay.. so is this an exorcism or something?"

"Kinda.."

Eliza began to read the spell aloud and she sighed,  looking through it to see if there was anything she missed.

"Uh...what are you doing?"

"Let's see.. hm... Ah ha!"

"Are you sure this works?"

"I think so.."

She laughed nervously as she read it aloud,  she could read and understand the language it was in rather well.

"Okay..."

"Ah..umm.."

She looked down at me nervously,   she had a very unsure look in her eyes.

"So what happens after you read it? Do I turn right away or does it happen over-night?"

"I believe it happens over-night.."

"Do I keep my memories of my friends and family or are they gone? And does the transformation hurt?"

"I.. I don't know.."

"How long does it normally take for my humanity to dwindle away?"

"Well,  for me.. it was just over-night.."

"I'm guessing it will be a lot quicker for me because Ariana already did say I was losing it."

She nodded and looked at me nervously for a few seconds before continuing,  I turned away.

"So how does this work?  Is this like an exorcism or an uber-curse or something?"

"Well.....

She looked at the page some more and tensed,  turning to me with a rather grim expression on her face.

"What?"

"......I'm not doing it.."

"What? You have to! I'm sick of being human. I'm sick of having to deal with the guilt that comes with killing people.  I'm sick of having to keep my Hessian side under control when around Ariana, i'm sick of not being able to drink blood...you just have to...you have no idea how much i've longed for this."

"I have to kill you in your human form.."

"I don't care..do it...do it..do it. I'll even volunteer to do it.."

I held up a cross,  causing her to hiss at me and back up slightly,  she knew that the cross was her weakness - what being a vampire and all.

"Put that thing away!"

"That thing is my weakness when I am the Hessian..I cannot cross holy grounds or running water."

Thinking quickly...I thought of another way to kill myself in my human form as I leaped over to a bed of spikes and was impaled on the chest.

"Nathan!"

"Aaah..aah..aah..aah..h.."

She looked at me as I laid on the bed,  bleeding and dying,  shaking and convulsing as I moaned.

"You really are desperate to get rid of your human form, aren't you?"

I nodded,  moaning softly and looking into her eyes before I gave my own last word..moaning as I continued to die.

She bit her tongue and kissed me on the lips.

"Drink my blood.."

With a series of moaning sounds...I started to lap up her blood,  it tasted good,  it tasted delicious..and so lovely and rich.

"Okay.. when you die, my blood will overcome your human blood, taking away your humanity.. you'll wake up later.."

"Aaaagh."

I moaned as I closed my eyes,  Eliza kissed my cheek and carried me over to a bed - where she laid me down to sleep and put a blacket on me.

I continued to moan as she held my hand tightly and looked at me with a sad and grim expression on her face.

I moaned some more and fell asleep,  permantely as I closed my eyes as she stood there, sighing as she kissed me.

As I slept....I had vivid dreams/visions of the original Hessian and of joining him in his rampage.

"Goodnight...Nathan."

Eliza walked outside and headed to the tree of the dead while I slept,  meanwhile I was sleeping heavily as my still beating heart began to pound with adrenalin.

She closed her eyes and listened to my heart beating,  as I moaned in my sleep - breathing heavily.

From within her blood slowly started to taint my own human blood and overcome it...taking over and making it as dark and twisted as hers.

She sighed as she watched it happily,  as I continued to have more Hessian dreams - this time from the point of view of the Hessian himself.

All my human thoughts were slowly taken away along with my humanity,  replaced with dark,  sick,  twisted thoughts of blood,  death, killing and gore.

She headed back to the house as I moaned some more,   as the blood moon appeared behind the clouds - the light shining over my body

The dreams I was having were getting more and more intense but I was enjoying them,  I was seeing things from the Hessian's point of view and enjoying every second and every little death that occured.

She sat beside the bed and watched me,  as my dreams got more intense still as my human thoughts dwindled away completely.

"That's it my Soon-To-Be-Hessian friend.."

"Aaaa..."

She watched me as I breathed heavily and moaned for a few seconds,  she turned and smiled softly.

I continued to moan in my sleep as she whimpered in a slightly frightened manner,  but she knew everything was going to go as well as played.

She looked around as my surroundings started to blacken,   my dreams continuing to become intense and dark in nature.

I had another dream,   this time I was in a darkened forest as the blood red moon peered out from behind the clouds...I saw a man  standing by one of the trees.

Feeling a huge rush of adrenalin and bloodlust flow through me,  I lunged at the unsuspecting man as my teeth sharpened and I snapped his neck with inhuman strength,   I growled and sank my teeth into his hand,  as blood started to drip from it and I lapped it up.

After that I looked up at the moon and let out a loud ferocious roar,  meanwhile Eliza closed her eyes and coughed as she watched me.    She opened her eyes and looked down at me as I slept.

A couple of hours later I awoke from the dream,  as I rose out of bed like a vampire rising out of its coffin in a horror movie.   She shook me slightly by the shoulders, as I yawned.

"Nathan?"

I looked up at her with a slightly devious glare in my eyes,  as I stretched my arms and got out of bed as she smiled gently at me.

"Hey.."

"Hey Eliza.."

"So.. how do you feel?"

"I..i...i..rr..feel so aggressive...evil..and bloodthirsty...it feels nice..rr.."

"Welcome to the dark side.."

She smirked as she laughed and leaned over to kiss me,  as a soft growl emmited from my throat and she hugged me tightly.

"So..what happens now?"

She smirked at me and stood up,  she knew what exactly we were going to do next.  And she knew that it was going to be good.

"We hunt."

"Yes..but how? Rrr.."

"You'll find out..."

Just then I heard another low growl coming from the darkness,  as it got closer and closer - I listened to it.

A shadowy figure was steathily prowling from behind as the growling got closer, eventually the figure leaped out of the shadows and lunged at me.

It was Hessian-like,  resembling the original Hessian -  the Hessian-like creature roared and then sniffed me before it morphed into a man,  and not just any man - but a rather familiar figure -  it was my friend/mentor Chris Walken.

"Your scent...your blood...it smells...dark and evil."

"Chris?"

"I hear you've turned evil,   Nathan."

"I have,  yes..rr..."

"Good.  I knew it would happen one day."

"You did?"

"Yes...and i'll be more than happy to join you on your hunt."

"That's good.   And btw...we're going to be needing Morgoth's help with this."

"How come?"

"Let's just say i've got a bit of a surprise for Ariana."

"Do you want me to inform her?"

"No...let's keep it a surprise.."

"Sounds like a plan to me.."

And with that the three of us went to go and head over to Morgoth's store in order to get the items needed to put our plan into action.

I am now free of my human form...and all that came with it...I feel much better now.
