We rushed through the house listening to the intense crashing, banging and various sounds of destruction. Screaming and shouting from above. when we reached the main lobby his mother ran through leaning on the ledges at the top of the staircase in shock. I was terrified but I moved forward and was taken back.

The tall third-floor ceiling of the lobby with the large staircases to the various places in the house, The tall chandelier had fallen to the ground shattering across the floor. I expected to see the man-sized bat creature the true form that I had seen of his mother days before but... that is not what I saw. 

I saw this HUGE creature.

It was at minimum the scale of a two-floor building, as wide as a lorry, the creature barely fit in the lobby of the manor house, the claws of the creature on the stairs, the wings half folded in and half folded out as if it was attempting to fly, The left wing was clearly damaged broken in odd places but well healed, The ears of the creature against the roof, its teeth must have been the size of rail spikes, The creature was attacking anyone who was anywhere near it, some of the staff tried to go near it and calm the situation but all of them were left as a bloody mess.

"what the hell is that!"

"His true form"

"His? Thomas!"

"Yes."

"Okay... What are we going to do?"

"I don't know"

"Well, what how did you get him back last time he went into his true form?"

"We didn't"

"well, how did he go back!"

"He ate Lillibeth!" she yelled back "the last time he had a blood lust was when Lillibeth ran, he got so angry and transformed. We couldn't do anything we let him hunt her down and he transformed once he ate her"

"Okay... right. So uhhhh" I nodded "His wing?"

"Lillibeth did that. she kicked rocks from the south tower down onto him" she explained "I don't know what we're going to do. neither me or ava have a form big enough or strong enough to keep him down. and if he gets outside in the sun... it'll kill him"

"okay. right. Well we have to figure something out" I nodded
