Fateful Convergence

At the last possible moment, another pillar of flame erupts around Nigel. However, unlike the last one he used to transform, this one seemed more controlled, and yet much, much more powerful. As the flames dissipate, the only evidence of Nigel's presence is revealed to be a circular scorch mark in the floor. "I'm not going to be killed that easily," he says, his voice seeming to come from everywhere and nowhere at the same time. In the middle of the room, black flames begin to gather together, forming the likeness of a man. Then, the flames disappear, revealing Nigel in a new form: Large horns curve forward from his temples and a cloak of dark fire covers his shoulders and conceals his entire body, except for his feet. His hair burns with silver fire, as if each strand were set alight, and his eyes were now black instead of their usual dark brown. Fixing his dark gaze on Arlia's father, he says, "Now, then, let's start over, shall we?"

Fateful Convergence

Beast Sean: *Continues purring and nudges his head against Eryn a bit harder*

Beast Nigel: *Licks Arlia's cheek and places a clawed hand on top of her head*

Isaac: *Thinks for a few moments* I'd say Sean. I mean, he can control shadows, so it'd be easy for him to use sneak attacks and whatnot

Fateful Convergence

Despite his bulk, Nigel was able to avoid most of the attacks. However, one beam managed to hit his left eye, causing him to roar in pain, which distracted him enough for another beam to pierce through his chest. Falling to the ground, wheezing as his lung collapses, Nigel glares up at the man, defiance burning in his good eye. Then, the flames completely cover his body. As the fire burns, his body begins to grow smaller as his bestial characteristics burn away. Soon, he was lying in a pool of his own blood, still wheezing and unable to see out of his destroyed left eye. "I'm...gonna...kill you..." he rasps.

Fateful Convergence

Beast Sean: *Purrs louder at Eryn's touch and licks her cheek*

Beast Nigel: *Growls happily and presses his head against Arlia's hand*

Isaac: Well, this is gonna be interesting, isn't it, Hayley?

Beast Nigel: *Growls happily and presses his head against Arlia's hand*

Isaac: Well, this is gonna be interesting, isn't it, Hayley?

Fateful Convergence

Sean: *Morphs into his beast form and nuzzles against Eryn, purring*

Vincent: Great, here we go, again =_=

Nigel: *Transforms into his beast form and sniffs Arlia*

Fateful Convergence

Nigel feels Adriano beginning to pry his jaws apart and attempts to back away. However, unable to escape the man's iron-like grip, he summons a ball of black fire in his mouth, which suddenly explodes. Using the explosion as a diversion, Nigel quickly pulls himself out of the man's grip and jumps back. Even though he was in this primal state, he could still realize when a situation was too dangerous to pursue. Glaring at the man, deep in his mind, Nigel begins to desire more power, enough to make good on his earlier threat, enough to protect the woman he loves. As he charges again, a ball of black and purple fire in each large, clawed hand, the flames enveloping his body begin to intensify once more as they spread down his back, arms, legs, and around his face.

Fateful Convergence

That's not true. Eryn has a shadow-beast at her beck and call XD

Fateful Convergence

Alright, if I don't see you anymore, have fun and I'll see you later :)

Fateful Convergence

The stinging sensation in Nigel's eyes was completely forgotten as Adriano practically tore his elbow apart, causing him to feel indescribable pain shoot up his arm and down his forearm. Taking a step back, he holds his arm, feeling blood, warm and sticky, run over his hand as he attempts to staunch the bleeding. "That's it," he growls. Suddenly, a pillar of black fire envelopes him and, a moment later, he bursts out of the fire in his beast form, his arm appearing to be healed, roaring as he charges toward Adriano once more.
