A Fated Meeting (Part 1)

It was the first time Gary had ever looked Lupus in the eyes, their first meeting, and it was happening with both of them fully transformed into their monstrous werewolf forms.

Lupus stood tall and imposing, his Predaclaw Ascendant class on full display. Thick, coarse fur trailed down his back like a mane, and white energy leaked ominously from his fingertips. He looked less like a man and more like a force of nature.

And Gary? He was in his Shadow Ash Lycan form. His usual brown fur had darkened into something coal-black, wisps of smoke curling from his back like a cloak of burning ash. It was strange to him, almost funny in a grim way, that the first time he met his uncle… it wasn’t as a man, but as a beast.

I’m using the Shadow Ash Lycan form… but since the sun is out, I’m not getting any boosted energy or regeneration, Gary thought, glancing quickly behind him. I won’t last long in a fight like this. So I’ll have to count on him.
