Phil laid in Lyra's bed tossing and turning from the nightmare he was having.

Sweat ran down his temple as he kicked the covers off him. He gripped the covers as his nails began to turn into claws.

He thought maybe just maybe digging his claws into something could alleviate the pain, but it didn't work so well.

Phil took long deep breaths as he felt his jaw break, that's when he screamed.

"Dan, DAN!!!!!" Phil yelled

Dan must have heard his call because he ran in followed by Lyra

Dan saw what was happening to Phil and was shocked beyond belief.

Phil quickly stood up and looked at Dan and Lyra, his eyes the color of the sun

"I need.... Help" Phil said strained

Dan unsure of what to do ran over to Phil and hugged him tightly

Lyra was shocked

"Dan what are you doing, Phil could kill you!!"

But he didn't, he just embraced the hug as his claws turned back to normal and his jaw went back to normal .

Dan let go of Phil and laid him back down on the bed, he was fast asleep

Dan got up and walked out of the room followed by Lyra

"You've got to find the cure, fast, Phil doesn't deserve this much pain,... But I do " Dan said sitting on the couch

Lyra without saying a word, ran to her healing area and grabbed her spellbinding, she came back and started researching

A couple hours

Phil walked into the room stretching his arms and yawning

Dan and Lyra watched as he went over to the fridge and open it

Phil grabbed a raw pork chop and pulled it from its packaging with his teeth.

He went over to Dan and Lyra and began to pull at the meat with his teeth, the blood coursing down his chin

Lyra looked at Dan wanting to throw up

Phil swallowed the raw meat and laughed

"You should the look on your faces, priceless!!!" He licked the blood off his lips as he finished the meat

"I hope I wasn't like that when I was a werewolf" Dan said groaning

Lyra giggled as she kept on looking through her book

Then she found it

"Dan, Dan!!! I think I've found the cure" Lyra yelled

Dan looked at the page she was on and smiled brightly

He looked back up and saw Phil pacing back and fourth

"What do we have to do?"Dan asked

Lyra looked at Dan and frowned

"I can only cast the spell when he is fully transformed"

Dan got wide eyed

"No, no we can't let him transform fully!"Dan yelled

Lyra shook her head

"The spell won't work if he's not in his wolf form"

"We've got to act fast before Phil does anything stupid"

They both looked at Phil
