Taker remembers the time he was cursed, there was fire, the black book, his father and it was dark... He must put everything in place to break the curse and recite the reverse spell that his father. He gains more and more powers than his father, Mendal begins to tire, he feels that his son is starting to take powers against him but he is not going to let him win...
Taker suddenly has a terrible headache that causes him to roll on the ground, Mendal keeps his power in his son's head. "I'm the one who made you transform when there was no full moon my son.." Mendal admitted laughing while watching his son suffer then Taker has a vision of the full moon in his head and his eyes start to turn black.
He tries to control it but Mendal's powers are too strong, his 8 legs pierce his muscular back... Diana wakes up and sees Taker transforming, black legs coming out of his back, the howls become growls, Taker tries to resist but nothing works, his eyes turn black, his nails become claws. She looks to the side and sees her mother, lying on her side, blood flowing below her. She crawls where her mother is and puts her on her back, Anastasia is injured but alive, she smiles at her daughter. "My dear..." Said Anastasia in a whisper, very proud of what her daughter has become. Mendal looks over his shoulder seeing that she has woken up then smiles evilly as he looks at her. " Kill her" Ordered his cursed son who turns sharply towards Diana who gets up and runs into the fortress. Taker smiles revealing his very sharp teeth loving to chase his scared prey, he seems amused by his prey. He's not himself, she reminded herself.
She tried to run away but Taker walks with his paws to go faster, she falls and cries no longer having the strength to continue running. Suddenly, Tigress arrives at full speed and rushes towards Taker who loses and crashes a little further from her. Tigress is in front of her mistress, on her paws, facing the cursed form of Taker, ready to hurt him. Taker uses his paws to hit the creature but Tigress manages to defend herself, planting her fangs in Taker's thigh who screams in pain but Tigress does not see Taker's paws going straight towards her and propels her onto a wall which collapses on the creature.
Diana is in tears seeing that Tigress is surely dead, she has nowhere to escape now, it's her and Taker cursed into a dead end. he stands in front of her, his paws are planted around her against the wall, he licks his lips, growls so much that drool flows from his mouth, he grabs her waist hard making her bleed, she cries, begs Taker to waking up from his curse by caressing his cursed face. Taker seems to calm down as if it does him good to feel her touching him, he stops growling, still looks at her with the desire to kill her. "I love you Majesty... please wake up..." she begged, crying and in a burst of courage and last hope, she brought her face closer to his and kissed him passionately, giving him all the love she had for him from the time she spent near him.
Suddenly, Taker's spirit takes control of his dark form, as if Diana's kiss had given him the power to control. The good times resonate in his head, the meeting with Diana and the times spent with her. He knew it... he knew this girl had something he needed... He knew she had something special... She was that thing, that simple thing.
Taker begins to control his emotions which become full of passion as he kisses Diana, he blinks realizing he can see, he can control his curse, his paws are still planted on the stone wall. He looks at what is happening around him, his hands move to Diana's sweet face noticing his claws. He looks at Diana who has her eyes closed and is still kissing him. She wanted to do this since the first night together... She wanted her first and last kiss with him before she died. The man who saved her from Mendal's soldiers, the man who gave her a home, the man who was always kind and respectful to her. she wanted this man. This cursed man but a dark lord who protects his people.
They broke the kiss, he placed his forehead on hers... feeling that he could finally control his curse thanks to Diana, he looked at her, still with his dark eyes, his paws still planted in the wall, he opened his mouth several times when trying to speak for the first time as cursed form. "Thank you princess..." he said in a voice even darker than abnormal.
~!~
Markus felt that Taker had become stronger, he felt his body shaking and stiffening causing Orok to recoil in fear. Markus' skin cracks, and suddenly the creature comes out of its old skin, it's finally molted, Markus' black skin with purple lines, purple chelicerae. Everyone is surprised by Markus' moult, which has become darker and his legs which were broken are repaired; Markus has his eight legs back and his chelicerae are there too.
~!~
Taker returns to where Mendal is, still his dark form, standing, seeing very well from afar seeing that Markus has become darker than before. He notices a molt near his creature and realizes that his creature has finally molted.
Mendal frowns seeing the blond behind Taker who is still alive, he closes his eyes trying to control his son's actions but he can't even get into his head anymore. Taker looks at Mendal, his father realizing he can no longer control him, his son is now stronger than him. he looks behind him to look at Diana who is near him. "Stay hidden." » he said in his dark and dangerous voice before moving dangerously towards his father. Mendal casts spells at him but avoids them with his paws. He sees that night has fallen, and he grabs his father by the neck, he was ready to say the spell, but Taker hesitates, either he keeps his dark form since he can control it, or he does what Scott wants, or he says the spell, removes his curse and does not kill his father.
Taker looks at his father, he laughs and makes fun of his son about his hesitation. "A Calaway never hesitates!" Said to his son laughing loving to see the hesitation in his eyes even cursed his son is not capable of accomplishing actions on his own.
Taker still looks dangerously at his father, his eyes are still black, it's raining, there's thunder, fires and death everywhere. He now understands Scott's sentence, Scott wants to punish his father for breaking the family rules. "What are you waiting for my son? Are you waiting for your beloved ancestor to give the order??" » he asked jokingly mocking his son, Taker tilted his head to the side.
"Go to hell!" He said that before planting his eight legs through his father, Mendal looked at his son and spat blood, touching the face of his son, the Tenth Lord. His own son decided to kill him for the good of all. Mendal loved his son more than his own life, but felt betrayed by him because of the way he wanted to be with others, he hated his son for that.
Taker puts him on the floor, Mendal smiles and coughs, grabs his son's hand. "Mark..." He started to want to speak to him by calling him by his real name but Lucius was losing too much blood and didn't have time to tell his son something he wanted to tell him. Taker feels his father's hand let go of his, his eyes open, blood flowing everywhere; He looks behind him and sees that Markus is violently killing Orok.
~!~
Suddenly a spirit appears and it is Scott with his black cane, he kneels next to Taker who turns his attention to the lifeless body of his father. "You made a good choice Mark, even a Calaway must not betray his own family, you must bury him in the same place where the Calaways rest, but he will not have his statue, he will just have a miserable plaque." » Scott said, patting his tenth generation on the shoulder before standing up. He briefly looks at the woman Taker is in love with who had just come out of hiding then disappears.
He feels a hand on his shoulder and sees that it is Diana who is kneeling next to him, she rests her head on his shoulder feeling that Taker is still sad for having killed his own father but he did not have the choice. He placed a soft kiss on her forehead before looking ahead, seeing in the distance a woman escaping from the castle with a child in her arms. He decided to let her escape, not wanting to know anything about this woman, nor this child who are probably his father's slaves.
