Mason Lockwood sipped from his beer bottle in his local bar. "All right, Carlos. That's it for me." He informed the bartender as he got his money from his pocket. "You got it. Good night."
Mason left the bar and headed for his car in the parking lot. A man following him. The man pushed him forward as he said his name.
"Whoa!" Mason turned to face him. "Hey, Jimmy, easy. Let's get you home."
"Screw you." Jimmy pushed him once more. "I know about you and Marla."
"What are you talking about?" Mason asked utterly confused. "You've has too much to drink. Let's- -" He was cut of by Jimmy grabbing him around the neck.
Mason grabbed his arm and pushed Jimmy away from him. "Dude. What's up? It's me Mason. I'm not messing with Marla. You know that."
Jimmy was first to throw a punch. Right into Mason's face. Mason lost his temper and pushed the man. "You don't want to do this, buddy."
"I'm gonna kill you." Jimmy gritted through this teeth. He shoved Mason to the ground. Kicked him twice and punched 3 times before mason held a strong grip on the mans hands and pushed him over.
He went in for another punch but Mason grabbed him and threw him over his shoulder. And with that he smashed Jimmy to the ground.
Leaving him dead.

"Wait, so your telling me the guy died?" Veronica asked her uncle. "You killed him?" Her brother asked from beside her.
"He kept coming at me." Mason explained. "He got it in his head that I was sleeping with his girlfriend."
"Well, were you?" Ronnie asked.
"No. No." Mason answered taken back by his nieces question. "I wouldn't do that. He was my friend."
"He was drunk and attacked me. It was self-defence." He explained once more. "And it triggered the curse." Tyler finished for him.
Mason covered in sweat, gasping for breath as his eyes glowed yellow.
"On every full moon, I lose control. If I don't sedate myself and chain myself down, I'll kill anything in my path. You have to be careful." He begged his brothers children. "All it takes is an accident, a car wreck. Any death at your hands, and you'll have a lifetime of this. You don't want it, kids. Trust me."

"A deals a deal. I answered your questions." Mason said referring to the moonstone.
"Um.." Tyler dragged on as he got up from his seat. "I'm not sure, but I'm guessing it's in here."
