Hessian hex remake part 5
Following from what happened last time, me and Rebecca had left the alchemist and headedback to the inn to go and think things through. I was concerned for the both of us now, not just for myself but for her as well. I feared that this whole thing would get in the way of our friendship and I might end up turning against her in someway. And at the rate things were going now, it would only be a matter of time until I would start turning. 'Rebecca. Thanks for helping, I was not myself back there when I got corrupted/turned in the previous version of this story, forced to act on evil impulses and a bloodlust I normally would be in control of but when under the influence of evil I am not.' 'No worries...i've seen much scarier things before, i'm pretty sure there is nothing that can scare me. After all, i'm friends with a sorceress who lives in a real haunted house.'
"Are you sure?"
"Yep. I am used to this kind of scary stuff."
'Oh well. I can certainly say you're a lot braver than my other friends are, normally about this time they would start freaking out over the fact i've been put under a spell/curse.' 'Well i'm sure that we'll get through this A-Okay. As long as well nothing happens that will get any supporting characters killed off.' 'Yeah...you're probably right.' I started freaking out a little, I felt more worried and tense than usual - knowing that it could probably happen at anytime.
"Nathan. Are you alright? I mean I know it's going to happen anyway but..."
'Ummmm.....no, not really, just a little anxious and freaked out. I mean I did nothing to this one time villainess that resulted in me being cursed but here I am. Fearing I might end up killing someone out of my uncontrollable bloodlust.' 'You've been acting strangely all night long, it's due to the spell that's been cast on you - it's slowly turning you into the Hessian. And I was there when it first happened to and it must have been horrifying for you.' 'I know. And the scariest thing about it is - that I actually think I am starting to enjoy the process. I mean I can't fight these urges and instincts. They're too strong. Normally I can but the dark aura is stronger than any aura i've ever picked up.' 'No, Nathan, no! You must fight them. No matter how difficult it is, you have to fight them, you have to. You're not a killer and you wouldn't harm anyone.' "Maybe you're right. No wait, scratch that, you are right. Harming innocent people is something i'd never do unless under the influence of evil, I mean I have strict rules about brainwashing and MC. I don't allow them here. But maybe..."
'Maybe what?'
Before I could reply, I felt a wave of pain jolt through my body and I doubled over in pain - this wasn't going to be good in the slightest as I clutched my stomach and felt those dark urges coming in, you know when you have the urge to just attack random people and drink their blood and you just feel like there is a monster inside wanting to jump out, well that's how I felt at this exact moment. 'Aaaaagh.....aaaaaaagh...'
"Nathan! Are you alright?"
"GET AWAY FROM ME! RIGHT NOW. I am saying this because it's happening now and you should run and not be a female in a horror movie.' I snarled and as I did my eyes turned from brown to aquamarine blue as my clothes started turning black and my teeth started sharpening, at first with the canines resembling typical vampire fangs but then the teeth looking like 80s horror movie monster teeth. 'No....Nathan...you must fight this. This dark side of your personality is not you, this is a dark alter-ego.' 'Aaaagh........Aaaaaagh! Oh god, this hurts. Oh good god it hurts! Of course it hurts, it's a painful transformation and ones like these are never pleasant yet sick weirdos in fandoms dedicated to making painfully cutesy werecreature content on Youtube and DA totally are into this for completely wrong reasons.'
"Nathan...you must fight this, you must. Don't worry I can help you."
"Aaaaaaaaaaagh! Stupid dark instincts."
"Come on Nathan, you can do this."
"You're right. I can!"
I calmed down for a second as my eyes returned to their normal colour as did my clothes and
my teeth returned to normal.
"Phew! Good job, Nathan."
"Thanks...I think I got that under control...."
"Well that's good. For a second there, I was worried that you were going to turn and start going on a killing spree. I mean I know you wouldn't harm anyone but I was so worried i'd be one of the next victims for sure.' 'Don't worry Becky, I would never do that...remember what I told you earlier, no matter what happens we'll always be friends.' 'Aaaw..come here.' She reached out to hug me but as she did, a cold chill ran through my spine as I sensed that something wasn't right. Another wave of pain jolted through my body as shadows started creeping up behind me, causing me to double over again.
"Ooh god, again."
"Nathan.....what's wrong?"
"Run....get out of here, now...before it's too late!"
"Why?"
'Because you don't want to be the victim in this, trust me, in the original it got to the point I went on a killing spree and went after numerous people.' 'No, i'm staying here with you.' 'I think it will be better if you left because this is a mini-series based on a horror movie made by Tim Burton and you don't want to be a slasher victim.'
"No. You're my friend and i'm going to help you get through this!"
"But I might end killing you, not that it will likely happen but it might."
'Nathan....you could never do that, you're the opposite of that Hessian - you're kind, you're
heroic, you're sweet - you're not bloodthirsty or vicious.' 'True....BUT THE ONLY ONE WHO'S
STOPPING ME FROM A GOOD OLD FASHIONED KILLING SPREE IS YOU! LEAVE THIS PLACE AT ONCE! LEAVE! I am only saying this because the Hessian is controlling me and giving me dark urges that I cannot surpress.'
"Nathan...i'm scared. I know I should help you in someway but I am scared.'
"I'm sorry...it's just....Aaaagh...aaaagh...aaaaaaaagh!"
The shadows creeped up my body and slowly but surely my clothes turned black, as did my shoes - changing them to a pair of black boots. The process was quite unpleasant and quite painful, Rebecca wanted to leave but she knew that if she were to leave me alone - then it would only worsen.
"Nathan! Nathan! Come on, you can fight this...I can help you!"
"I'm afraid I don't think there's anything you can...grrrr...do about it!"
The shadows slowly crept up on my hands making a pair of black gloves appear on them, my clothes were now looking more Hessian-like. I was overcome by more pain and feelings of bloodlust as I grew slightly taller and the shadows appeared behind my back, forming a cape of sorts. Which I do admit looked good but I wasn't there to impress her with my fashion sense, I was suffering due to the curse.
"Nathan...d...oh no. Come on Nathan...you can do this! I have faith in you..."
"Grrrrr....no, I can't. The urges, the bloodlust...the instincts! They're just too strong, but I can do it this time, I swear!"
"Come on. You can do this, we can do this."
"No....get out of here right now!"
My hair slowly spiked up and turned jet black, as my skin turned pale. I closed my eyes, but they
opened up again as they turned from brown to aquamarine blue with a rather ghostly tint. My eyebrows arched and turned black, becoming more menacing in the process. I couldn't help
but let out a few growls and snarls as it happened.
"Nathan!"
"Grr...grrrr.....GET OUT OF HERE NOW!"
"No...i'm staying here with you."
Dark makeup appeared around my eyes as my lips turned a pale shade of pinkish. I growled in
pain as the changes progressed further. I felt a rather unusual stinging sensation in my mouth, and as I felt my teeth with my tongue - they started to sharpen and resembled vampiric fangs at first which I admit was kind of cool, 'Okay I admit that fangs are quite cute and I do look good with them, not that I have a thing for thing with characters with fangs or anything, oh no.'
"Rebecca"
"Yes, Nathan?"
"There's something I just want to say to you before this process completes itself and grrrrrr...the
Hessian takes over, and sorry about the growling - it's just the dialogue sometimes switches to monster talk."
"What is it?"
".....I.....I.....I......Want to say thanks...for being my friend and everything. And well when the original supporting character left to go to home to their home world, you were the right to choice to replace them."
"No problem, Nathan."
"Now....there's something I want you to do for me.."
"What, Nathan?"
"Promise me that no matter how dark or gruesome this gets, you won't end up being the first victim that I kill off in this. In the original well this was a whole lot worse."
"I promise."
"Aaaagh....aaaaaaagh...thank you...now...grrr...get out of here!"
"I'm staying here with you. We can get through this...."
I growled in pain some more as my facial features morphed and reshaped themselves until they
fully resembled the Hessian's features. In addition to this my already vampiric teeth sharpened
more until they now resembled the Hessian's teeth. 'Aaaaaagh......aaaaagh...aaaaagh. Damn
this hurts. At least I can talk this time, last time I had trouble with it.' 'Nathan, i'm here for you.
Don't worry....'
'I know...it's just stupid dark impulses, I am starting to think about blood and not in the usual way..' I held my head in pain as the more vicious instincts and urges of the Hessian slowly took over me, but I was actually still me on the inside unlike in the original where I was fully corrupted into acting like a violent fanged psycho, I was still myself but partially still Hessian-like.
"Nathan....you've got to keep control."
"I'm trying...but say, I bet you'd make a good addition to the collection."
"Nathan!"
My horrifying transformation was complete and I was now the Hessian but at least I could
speak, last time when this part happened I could not speak, I could talk but my voice was
deeper and Walken-like with a slightly ghost-like echo to it, making me sound like I was a ghost.
"AAAAAAAH! RAAAAAAAAWR! Sorry, force of habit."
"Nathan...I know it's you in there. Don't worry, I might be able to fix this."
"Oh I do hope so, I mean I know it will eventually get fixed but still."
"Just don't go killing anybody now."
"Raaawr? Sorry about that, had the dialogue for this part set to monster talk."
"I know you are far too good to be so vicious."
"Actually you're right, this may have happened in the original but in this remake, not so much."
She went up to me and tried to talk me out of this and luckily I was able to hug her without attacking her this time.
"Nathan! Nathan!"
"HAAAAAAA! RAAAAAAWR! AAAAAH! Sorry, this form is hard for me to adjust to because it's taller than how I normally am."
"Oh no...this isn't going to be good."
Now that I had fully transformed into the Hessian, I had more reason to be concerned, I mea yeah this happened in the original mini-series too but this was more about me worrying about having to replace Rebecca if she was to you know...die. Which I did not want to happen, no sir. I loved Rebecca, she loved me, not in a weird creepy way, just more in the way that friends do. She really wanted to help and to figure out a way to reverse it and to cure me, but somehow she knew it wasn't going to be easy.

Our hero has now turned into the Hessian. Has the spell fully affected him completely? Will he
come to his senses? Or will be Michayala's ruthless cold-blooded killer?
