You can't hide from the beast.

0 · 425 views · located in The House

a character in “The House That Animals Built”, originally authored by TheSpaceInBetween, as played by RolePlayGateway

Description

Image

Mysterious. One word to describe Tristan Noble he is the one you see behind the groups of teenagers moaning about minuscule problems in their lives, that shadow in the dark, the face in the woods.

Most of his exsistance is based on blown up over emphasized stories and rumors about a wild man living in the woods who controls a pack of wild wolves...that is more or less true. He does live in the woods, but is not at all wild.

Tristan is like most average eighteen year old guys. Well not exactly. He is a decent enough guy if you find him in a good enough mood when he is not battling with his inner self. One half of him is calm and collected, protecting even the weakest life giving them one last chance and he will do his best to confront people who are causing harm to others not really caring about his own safety.

The other half causes him the most pain, under the moons light he is turned into something he never wants to be..a bloodthirsty creature that destroys everything in it's path Tristan tries in vain most nights to calm the beast. It never works and Tristan pays for it the next morning with new scratches and bruises. The process before a full moon is a long and grueling one Tristan become angry at the slightest thing, and become even more protective, thats why he stays in his room.

His sanity however is slowly slipping away from him with each turn of the moon. He has become more aggressive and irritable as well as staying away from other people to avoid hurting them. His room is full of deep scratches against the wall whenever he has lashed out in anger it looks more like a prison than a bedroom.

Tristan keeps very fit and has a decent enough body to show for it with running around 10 miles a day every morning as well as other exercise that expels any energy within him due to the wolf blood flowing through his veins. His senses are enhanced giving him a keen sense of smell and hearing even if he is miles away. He is strong too and is able to bring down a man larger than him. He stands at a tall 6 ft exactly so is an intimidating force to come against but his light green eyes tell another story.

So begins...

Tristan Noble's Story

Shadow shifted into a chibi-like version of the Cheshire Cat, lazily stretching out her paws and tail. Tristan should have finished off the teenage girl by now, she figured. So...why not have a little fun? Tristan wouldn't kill her, anyways. Crawling through a small hole in her bedroom wall that she had dug in case of moments like this one; it lead directly into Tristan's bedroom. It was easy enough scrambling through the pathway and bounding into Tristan's room...onto his bed, and attempting to get his attention by cocking her head to the right and perking up her ears. "Mrow?"

"I will check on Tristan if you so desire. But then I'm going out to party at the club. Don't be surprised if you see some blood coming out of my door in the morning, as the poor sap deserved it for coming home with me." Arisu called to Shadow. She let the new girl inside, then went to Tristan's door and knocked on it. "Shadow wanted me to check on you. Are you okay?"Arisu asked, and added, "Sorry if you are sleeping."

Tristan didn't sleep for long, well then again he never did although the transfromation from man to wolf always tired him out more but he was strong. Sitting up he rubbed his eyes, looking over at the dead body of the girl. She was no use to him now, sure he could eat the flesh off her bones. But nothing was more satisfying than blood.

He left his room closing the door behind him, even though there was nothing of value in his room he didn't like people going in there. He walked down to the living room sitting down and flicking on the television. He could go for a run but that was something he did of a morning. He stretched out his arms and legs feeling his joints crack and points, exhaling a deep breath he looked outside. Contemplating his next move.

Tristan stood up quickly taking of his shirt, he walked through the the laundry room. Tossing the bloodstained shirt in with the others pressing the button to wash his clothes. It was amazing the fight that his victims out up when he was just about to claim them, some ripped and pulled his shirt trying desperately to get away.

Walking through the house he came to the hallway of rooms, passing the new resident asking for a room. He glared at her and growled for good measure. Walking into his room he picked up a shirt from the floor, looking around the room the blood Nan's body from last night had disappeared. He was surprised but perhaps it was the house it seemed to adapt to its occupants.

He stepped out of his room pulling the shirt over his head. " I'm going out" he called out then took off running through the house out of the front door. He would go to the edge of the forest to begin his run, but the sound of crying infiltrated his ears and he ran to the direction of the crying. Perhaps it was a snack for him this morning, he skidded to a halt when he saw Shadow sitting on the floor crying. Next to her were a number of bodies, most of them who he killed.

" what are you doing here?"

Shadow attempted to wipe the blood off of her fingers and onto the fabric of her dress as she saw Tristan stride out of the House. But when she noticed him actually walking in her general direction she knew it was too late. All other traces of blood were gone...so maybe he wouldn't suspect anything. β€œT-Tristan...I...I have to go...” She stood up hurriedly and bolted into the woods, accidentally dropping the knife she had used to get the rest of the blood off the bodies Tristan had finished off. The piece of metal landed at Tristan's feet...Damn it, Ari!

Tristan's head tilted to the side as Shadow spoke very quickly excusing herself and running off. He picked up the knife slipping it in his pocket. He looked at the bodies, he had no idea that there were so many but he had an even less of an idea why Shadow needed them. He wanted to find out.

He ran after Shadow quickly, she had got some distance between the two of them but with the wolf blood in Tristan's viens he easily caught up enough so to get in front of her and stop her in her tracks. " what's going on Shadow? Why do you need the bodies "

She's probably doing so weird voodoo stuff to them so she can control you, you should kill her.

Tristan shook away the voice in his head, knowing full well what was really controlling him.

Shadow lowered her head, her black hair falling over her eyes. The words came out as a simple statement, meant to drive home a single point... "I need blood." She vanished, grabbing the knife out of Tristan's pocket and pinning him to the ground in a flash of black and silver.

"Now get out of the woods."

Tristan was certainly caught by surprise when Shadow pinned him to the floor, he got up quickly his fists clenched his eyes turning dark briefly, snarling he roared loudly at shadow. He closed his eyes and spoke calming down " I won't leave.I can help you Shadow,whenever I get someone you can have the body when i'm done. There's always a bit more blood left in the body even after i've fed"

He wanted to help, he always did. Tristan was always different compared to his wolf counterpart, where the wolf was aggressive, Tristan himself was kind and protective. At the moment it was a losing battle, between him and the wolf.

" Please Shadow" he asked softly, not really knowing how she would react.

Shadow smiled weakly. "Okay," she said quietly, standing up. "I know voodoo like the back of my paw, but I would never use your name in anything...Tristan." She turned her hand over, revealing two distinct markings. "Wolf blood runs in my veins...it's not as strong as yours, though." Before she knew what she was doing, Shadow hugged Tristan. It was a small hug, not meant for affectionate gestures.

"Come on...it's just one more body one more person who have come to the end of the line"

Tristan turned around sharply gripping tightly to a shovel that he had been using. " no...no more three body's a month, that was the agreement. But you keep doing things like this. Things that got us in trouble like last time. That's why I hide away because I know that if I go outside things will fall and I can't stop it happening anymore" he turned to continue digging.

" it's what we are, who we are meant to be. Mom and dad would have told you the same thing"

Again Tristan turned slamming the shovel into the ground,pushing the man against the tree, " Don't even talk about them, you didn't know them, your just a bloodline. I should have died with them instead of hiding away. I never wanted to be like this, I never wanted you"

The man laughed deeply " well you've got me wether you like it or not, unless you get shot with a silver bullet, were together forever" he pushed away Tristan with one hand and looked into the deep pit." Why are you doing this anyway? It sort of gives the wrong impression of the Beast if the bodies are buried" he pushed one of the bodies into the hole watching as the body crumpled as it landed.

Tristan shook his head " I never wanted that title, that was all your doing, now just disappear!" he said as he picked up the shovel swinging at the man, which just passed through him and he vanished. Tristan continued to fill the hole with the bodies and covered it over with soil and leaves.

( thought I'd give a little insight into Tristan's battle with the wolf )

"Tristan..." Shadow placed a gloved hand on the boy's tense shoulder, smiling shyly. "You're not the only one that is afraid of getting shot with a silver bullet," she said quietly, lowering her head so that her striped bangs fell over her eyes. Her wings dropped as well, black feathers dragging along the ground. "My master always threatens to kill me if I don't...behave. Not like you would understand...you don't have to wear a collar..."

Tristan shoved Shadows hand away grabbing her by the throat shoving her against the tree his hand squeezing tightly. " you think I'm afraid of a silver bullet, I'm not. I'd actually welcome it. You say I don't have to wear a collar? He is the collar the wolf inside my head" he snarled behind him and turned back to shadow " so I do understand shadow we are no so different " he added releasing her neck and walking to the hole picking up the shovel and walking back to the house.

Shadow pulled her knife, slashing it across Tristan's neck. Something had snapped; it was that literal urge to kill that resurfaced at this particular moment...Dammit, Tristan! She growled angrily, dragging the knife across his wrist smiling as blood began to drip from the two deep gashes creating a large maroon puddle on the dirty ground. "If you had realized that four years ago you wouldn't have kept hunting! Your blood is the same as mine; different reactions only because of the experiments, I tied down my wolf and stopped, you told me that you would bite me to save all of these - " She gestured towards the pile of bodies. "Screw this..." With one final growl the shifter stabbed Tristan's shoulder digging in the silver blade as far as possible, muttering something in another language...some sort of mark burned itself into his right arm, she took the form of a sort of dark angel and vanished, kicking Tristan to the ground as she did so.

Blood filled Tristan's throat and he gasped for breath, he spat out a mouthful of blood. He hardly had time to react to the deep cut in his wrist, as Shadow plunged her knife into his shoulder he screamed out in pain as the wound began to burn and shock him at the same time.

Falling to the ground with a thud Tristan writhed in pain watching as Shadow disappeared. He clutched his throat tightly. To slow the flow of blood, but it wasn't working. Stumbling off the floor he tried to walk but all of his energy had been sapped away, he dropped to the ground again suddenly feeling cold. What had she done? He started to crawl but even that was causing pain, he finally came to a halt leaning against a tree his eyes slowly fading out of focus.

Shadow sat down on the ground only a few feet away from Tristan, grinning. "Let's play a game," she told him, eerily calm. She pulled both her knife and a doll from her coat pocket. The doll was fashioned to resemble both a boy and a wolf, pins stuck out from various places. It was indeed meant for Tristan as well as whatever she had in her pocket - a strange assortment of items such as a spirit board and...chains? Bottles, jars, candles.....even vials filled with Tristan's blood.

Tristan growled as soon as soon as Shadow sat down, he didn't even know what she was doing or even where he was. He blinked a few times and he tried to see where he was. But he had no idea...it was dark, did he fall asleep? He watched as Shadow took out a small doll that looked like him with pins sticking out of it.

He tried to swing out at Shadow but he couldn't move, " what are you doing?" He asked his voice still weak but the wolf blood was healing his wounds. But it was struggling had Shadow taken some blood, while he was passed out? " Where am I?" He mumbled.

Tristan cried out in pain as the knife tore through his flesh, blood dribbled out of the wound the worst thing was he couldn't get away. Tristan growled loudly trying to pull his body forward to attack Shadow but he was rooted to the spot. " Why Shadow? I said I would help you but I didn't mean like this. What do you want with me? I hink we've gone beyond the point of friendship now"

He thought about what the wolf had said about Shadow being into voodoo, he should have listened and kept to himself. Like the old days.

β€œI'm trying not to get punished...hold still, Tristan.” She pressed some sort of folded piece of torn cloth against the wounds she had inflicted, wiping away the blood. She wasn't a voodoo priestess she was a voodoo healer. β€œSomeone poisoned you. I was only trying to drain it so you wouldn't die...please, please believe me...brother.”

Shadow pulled back, startled. β€œI lost my entire family including my older brother when I was seven, Tristan, I lost them to a fire started by an arsonist in the same gang I now lead. Of course you wouldn't remember, they told me you wouldn't....” She pulled a folded picture from her jacket pocket, unfolding it and giving it to Tristan. The photo showed a girl and her brother standing together outside of a rather large house. The girl was smiling but deep cuts covered her arms as if she had taken a knife to them for hours on end, at the bottom of the worn, crumpled photograph written carefully in red ink were the words β€œAri Alrea and her older brother.”
