"So that's the facility?" Asked Tabitha. "Yes, those diesels are guarding the entrance so there's definitely something going on in there." Said Gary.

"Well, what are we gonna do father?" Asked Oscar.

"I have cameras and guns just in case. We are gonna record the outside then get it to the police and have them send someone to try investigate the area furthur and see if your brother is in there. Oscar, take Damien with you and go near the west and south sides of the building while I take Tabitha and go near the east and north sides." Explained Gary.

Minutes later, the four split up to see what they could see from the outside.

Nothing seemed to happen at first, but soon enough an alarm seemed to sound out throughout the building. "What's the alarm for?" Asked Damien. "I'm not sure. But I do hope it doesn't mean that they've found us." Said Oscar.

Oscar was secretly worried and tried to text his dad but even after several minutes, there was no reply. "Ok Damien, stay here while I go check on your sister and my dad. I'll be right back." Said Oscar. The boy then proceeded to sprint off into the woods leaving Damien all by himself.

He felt scared and alone, but suddenly heard someone's weak voice and crying. He hesitantly moved towards the sound and was shocked to see what it was after laying eyes on the source of the noise. It stood on two legs, but it barely even looked human. It was nearly completely covered in dark green fur with most of its clothing stripped off. One of its eyes had turned a bright gold while the other was blue. It looked like some sort of werewolf humanoid, but it seemed so familiar. Damien was too disturbed to say anything, but the wolf finally spoke with a voice that could only be so unfamiliar.

"D..Da..Damien....Please.. help me." Said the half-wolf whose breaths were extremely weak. "How do you know my name?" Asked Damien. "I..It's me....your...brother." Answered the half-wolf.

"Elliot? Is that you? What the heck happened to you!?" Asked a freaked out Damien. Suddenly, Elliot felt a sharp pain in his body and tried to fight off the beast within him and tried reaching out to Damien for help. Damien slowly backed away a much more scared boy who likely wouldn't be alive for much longer.

While his brother was slowly stumbling towards him as he was backing away, Damien noticed him changing. His arm and legs became furry and the hands and feet became paws. His black hair grew in length. The single ear that remained normal became triangular, furry and moved to the top of his head. The rest of his body became furry as his black and wet nose grew out with the mouth to form a muzzle.

"...I'm....sorry...Damien...Please....Forgive me." Said Elliot as his memories and personality slowly faded from his mind as he was being taken over by a monster. The Beast was born.

As the wolf opened its eyes, Damien noticed them beaming with red as the sharpened teeth revealed themselves within the muzzle as the wolf roared and growled at him. Damien didn't even notice that he had backed himself into a corner against a large rock. Damien now had nowhere left to run as he could do nothing but scream as the wolf lunged at him.

"1006/5
Upon conclusion of the most recent test, the subject has fully transformed along with forming a muzzle and paws exposing the claws and teeth. Some aspects were unexpected such as the fact the subject even has hair or the swap of the subject's gender but those should only be minor issues that we can let slide for now.

As for the one unexpected variable of the most recent test was that we received an intruder alert from the driver of the N&SC railway's number 10, his son, and two of the subject's siblings. One of the subject's brothers that came along is the only one that we haven't caught, but blood dripping from the subject's mouth once it returned pretty much answered our question."
