"Strip." Larry demanded.

"No way in hell." Nancy clutched at her clothes. She was terrified. *I'm going to change. I'm going to become the big bad fucking wolf in the dark. I will not be naked in front of Larry.*

Oz dropped his pants. Nancy stared at him. "You have no modesty, do you?"

"Nope." He stepped into the cage. *Still can't look at me. Still feels guilty about all this shit. He gets bit by his cousin. I get bit by him and we all live merrily ever after as house pets for Larry. Get in the cage bastard.*

"Your clothes will be torn off anyway. When you wake up I'll see you naked anyway. Besides, I don't know if you've noticed but I'm gay." Larry winked at Oz who actually blushed.

*This is going to be the best fucking night of my life. I can tell that much already. I think I'll glare at Larry until the floor drops out from under him and he lands on the devil with his big fat ass.* She growled and tore of her shirt and pants. Stepping into the cage in her bra and panties, she deliberately looked Oz up and down.

*Blush. Go ahead blush. I'm just going to stare right down there until...*

"Nan." Oz was speaking. Her eyes rose to meet his. "I'm sorry."

"Sorry you bit me? Or sorry that for three nights a month I get to see you naked? I could still kill us both you know." Nancy growled. *Yeah I know. I could be nicer. I know I could be gracious. This isn't his fault. He didn't know. And I promised I'd do this and because despite everything he is hot naked. We never did get a chance to sleep together.*

Oz gave her a weak grin. "We'll be fine."

*I can feel it.* "Can you feel it?" *It's like my skin is screaming to get off of me and my mind is scared of thoughts it hasn't even had yet. Damn it I want to go home and pretend this isn't happening. I'm not a werewolf. I'm not living in a world of vampires and I most definitely am not shivering in my underwear in a cage with a naked Oz and not having sex.*

Oz shivers. He can feel it. He knows the change is coming. "Larry, lock us in."

"I don't know man... You sure about this? What if Nancy doesn't change until next month? Or you're done for this month. I'd feel bad if I locked you in and left you for vampire bait." Larry held up the keys.

"The sun goes down and we scent you in here we might eat you." Oz told him.

*My insides feel like somebody dipped me in that shit on buffalo wings. I need Larry to go. Now. Move it asshole.* "Lock us in. Then get the hell out of here before I decide to eat you out of spit. You think this cheesy mesh can hold me?"

Larry backed away. *Run meat run.*

"Lar, lock us in first. Run from Nan second." Oz started to pant. He could feel something inside of him pushing it's way to the surface. Larry slammed the key into the lock and turned the key. Both of the werewolves relaxed.

Oz sat down and reached up to drag Nan down with him. She pulled off her bra and dropped it on the ground. "I hate the panties. They can stay. I need some dignity."

He kept her hand. *I love you.* Nan thought as her insides fluttered a little. "Feel like I'm on a caffeine high the way my body jitters around. I hate being in cages. Do you hate it? Because I hate this shit! I hate it. Oz, damn it. How did I let you talk me into this?"

"Relax."

*Oh yeah. I'm at a picnic. I'm Mary fucking sunshine. What if we tear each other apart and I wake up with a mouth full of Oz? I know I was going to kill you yesterday you cute little bastard who is by the way incredibly naked...Oh God.* "We're it." She whispered, jumping to her feet, Nancy grabbed at the mesh. "We're the big bad thing in the dark. This isn't going to work. Get Larry back. He can shoot us when we're not..LARRY!!"

Oz grabbed her. "Stop it! Stop it. I don't want to be fighting you when we change. I don't want us to tear each other into little pieces. I don't want to wake up and find..."

*I'm so scared. No, I'm not. Nancy Doyle does not get scared. I am going to shit myself. I don't want to die. I don't want...* Oz held on to her and she turned to face him. Hugging they sat back down on the cage floor.

"We can get through this together." Oz breathed.

*Is that why you just hissed? Oh God. Ow. Serious ow.* Nan tried to fall forward as her insides boiled. Starring at her hands she watched the fingers elongate, the fur grow and the claws burst from the tips of her skin. Oz wouldn't let her go as he grunted with pain. The arms around her waist became furred. Choking on the pain she couldn't even manage a scream as her mouth changed and filled with sharp teeth.

*Holy shit.* Was her last conscious remark as her mind was sucked away and all that was left were two wolves, howling.

The End.
