Casper sat patiently hidden in the brush as the light from the full moon luminated the night sky. It had been well over a week since the 27 year old hunter had taken up the quest from the local village leader to take down this dangerous monster by whatever means needed. The young man remained silent as he scanned the woodland around him with his ears and dark red eyes waiting for his chance. This monster had been hunting the poor villagers and now this monster had become the hunted.
After some time there was a rustling near by and the sounds of movement. Finally Casper could see a glimpse of the beats - its grey fur contrasted against the green of the forest around it. Casper watched as the creature moved closer. He raised his crossbow preparing to fire as the beast emerged from a series of trees into a clearing. The small 5ft tall Werewolf bathed in the moonlight as it sniffed the sir most likely knowing that Casper was nearby and thinking it could hunt him down. Casper pulled the trigger of his crossbow releasing an silver tipped arrow. The arrow flew through the air hitting the werewolf in the hip.
"Haawwwoooooooo!" The wolf screeched out in pain before turning to the direction the arrow had come from.
Casper quickly loaded a second arrow as the monster began to run at him. The hunter fired the second arrow hitting his target in the shoulder making the creature stumble back a bit. The werewolf then leapt at the hunter jaw wife open to take a bite. Casper rolled out of the way causing the werewolf to miss him and fall right into the trip. The creature stumbled into a chain net made of silver which enclosed around it hoisting the creature several feet into the air. Lucky for Casper this werewolf was a small one and not as strong as some others he had gone up against in the past. The monster thrashed around as the silver from the arrows it had been hit with and the silver from the chains it as now caught with burned it.
"Well you just stay in there until the moon goes away taking your powers. I can wait all night if need be." Casper said with a smile as he pulled out a pipe and had himself a traditional victory smoke as he did after completing each quest.
The moon eventually was blocked by the clouds but Casper hose to just wait until the morning and leave the werewolf in the silver chain net. When the sun was finally up Casper stood up and went over to his trap lowering the metal net to the ground to see the human form of the werewolf. Inside the net was a young woman - perhaps 20 in human years or so. She had long dark black hair and pale freckles skin. Her Green piercing eyes looked up at Casper as he stood above her. Due to her transformation her clothes were mostly ripped and gone leaving even her perky breasts exposed and visible. A small torn bit of dress remained to cover his hips and thighs.
"What will you do now hunter? Will you turn me over to the town as I am? Will you take my head as a prize to mount?" The young woman asked looking up at her captor who she was not at the mercy of.
"You are an abomination to the gods and must be fixed. And you should answer for your crimes against the village. However - Your fate is now mine to control beast." Casper replied smiling down at his captive.
