She fell forward onto all fours, her hands now giant paws with razor-sharp claws. Gabriel watched in stunned silence as the woman he loved completed her transformation into a massive dire wolf. She was easily five feet tall at the shoulder, with eyes that glowed an eerie yellow. The crew reacted with a mix of fear and awe. "Seven hells!" cried out Remus, the cook.

The storm raged, waves crashing against the hull of the black ship as it cut through the violent sea. Rain pelted the deck, stinging the faces of the grim crew as they worked to keep the vessel on course. At the wheel stood the captain, tall and imposing, his face marred by a jagged scar crossing his left eye, now milky white and blind. Captain Marcus Drago gazed out into the tempest, seemingly oblivious to the elements assaulting him. His jaw was set, his posture rigid, exuding a palpable menace despite the storm's fury.
