It had been a few weeks since Dec, Amy, Caroline and Jesse had been taken and experimented on and since then they had all bee trying to learn how to control themselves. Dec had grown used to the full moon transformations over the last few years and he knew that it was the same for Amy but the heightened emotions and bloodlust were new for both of them. Dec had been doing his best to be there for his sister ever since then and he had confided in Julian about what had happened. It had made it easier having a different perspective on what was going on and his brother was doing his best to be there for him as much as he could. As difficult as the bloodlust was for Dec to get a handle on, he knew that it was going to be that much worse for Caroline and Jesse when the full moon came around. Dec had tried to prepare them both for what was to come but it was one thing to tell someone about the pain of every bone breaking and it was another thing entirely to experience it directly. As time went on the pain got easier to manage but it never went away completely and Dec wasn't sure if it ever would. They were experiments, they weren't natural so Dec didn't know if it was going to go the way it had for every full moon prior to this one but he knew that they would figure it out together. The sun had already set by the time they headed out to the woods. Stefan had promised to meet them in he morning with some clothes that they could wear until they got home so that was one less thing to worry about but they still had the hardest part to get through and that was the transformation. Dec had thought about asking Amy and Jesse to join them but he could still remember his first full moon and having two new werecreatures transforming at the same time in such close proximity wasn't a good idea. Pain could make people unpredictable and even though it could help knowing that someone else was going through the same thing Dec knew that it would be better to keep this private. He was going to be helping Care through her first full moon and Amy was going to be doing the same for Jesse so he knew that they would all be just fine. Walking hand in hand with Caroline, Dec gave her hand a gentle squeeze as they reached a clearing. "Are you ready for this?" he asked as he turned to face her, reaching forward and taking her free hand in his as his eyes met hers. CAROLINE FORBES

Caroline was scared and that doesn't exactly happen often. Or maybe it does and she's just good at hiding it. It took her a long time to come to terms with the fact that she was a vampire when she was first turned against her own will. The concept of control was a little blurry to her. Actually, scratch that. It was very blurry. After killing that man, she felt as though she had lost a part of her. It was quite possibly the worst experience she'd ever gone through and there was no doubt in her mind about that. But then she was taken along with Declan and experimented on by those dread doctors and it only made things worse for Caroline because once again, she was battling for control. But that wasn't the only issue. The threat of a full moon approaching continuously loomed over her head and it made her wonder just how people actually go through it. How Declan goes through it. God, it made her stomach twist just thinking about it. She was just not ready for it.
But she knew that she had Declan by her side through it and it made things better for her, actually. Just knowing that someone she loved and appreciated was going to be there for her, guiding her through it. She was grateful. She looked over at Declan, smiling a little at him, still feeling very nervous about what was to come. "If I'm being honest... No." Caroline chuckled briefly, her eyes moving to look at the clearing. "I guess I'm just really nervous." She added a moment later before her gaze found Declan's once more. "But you're here with me and that's more than enough for me." Caroline said with a gentle smile resting on her lips. "I can do this." She mumbled mostly to herself to encourage herself to face this with no fears. She had a feeling it'd be worth it in the end. She gave Declan's hand a gentle squeeze before her eyes drifted up to look at the sky before her gaze found Declan's. "I never thought the day would come where we'd shift and run together. It feels so... surreal." Sometimes she even doubted that she had changed at all but then her claws would come out and it'd be enough of a reminder that she wasn't just a vampire anymore. "But... I know this pain will be worth it in the end."

Dec knew that he would never forget what his first full moon as a weretiger was like. He’d had his parents and siblings around him and they had done their best to prepare him for what was to come but the truth was that nothing could prepare a person for the pain that they were going to feel when every bone in their body broke and reformed. In a way he knew that he and his family were lucky, they turned into tigers with every full moon rather than wolves so their forms were bigger and the transformation wasn’t quite as bad but it was still difficult enough. Over time it had gotten easier and even though Dec knew that the pain would never go away completely it was something that he had ended up getting used to over the years. One thing he knew for sure was that it was worth it to be able to run as a tiger during each full moon. Dec had shared what he was with Caroline some time ago but it had never occurred to him that they might end up sharing this together too. It seemed crazy to think that they had both been experimented on and their DNA had been mixed together to turn them into vampire-weretiger hybrids but that was exactly what had happened. Mystic Falls had certainly changed a lot from the way it used to be when they were younger but they were doing their best to make the most of it. Caroline had been teaching him how to control his vampire side and he had been doing the same for her with her weretiger side. It was much more difficult than Dec had ever thought that it would be and now he could definitely understand why Caroline had lost control at prom but they had been helping each other through this and he knew that over time they would get the hang of it. Whether Caroline would end up turning into a white tiger like he did or a regular tiger he wasn’t sure but either way he knew that they were going to find out soon enough. Dec knew that he never would have wished what was to come on Caroline but he knew how strong she was so he was certain that she could get through it. “It’s natural to feel that way, I did for a long time at first,” he admitted. It had taken him a while to start feeling comfortable with what happened every full moon but he had ended up getting there in the end and he was certain that Caroline would as well. “You can,” he agreed as she said that she could do this. “You’re one of the strongest people I know, you’ve got this,” he assured her as he let his hand rest gently against her cheek and offered her a smile. “You know what to expect and I’m going to be right here with you. I’m not going anywhere.” He would never let her go through this alone and he hoped she knew that. As she spoke again, Dec’s smile widened slightly. “I never thought this would happen either. It seems crazy sometimes but this is really happening.” Dec had never thought that it was even possible before he and Caroline woke up in that cage. It wasn’t supposed to be possible and yet it had happened to them and similar things had happened to others around town as well so at least they weren’t alone. “It will. Once you’ve shifted the pain will feel like nothing more than a memory.”CAROLINE FORBES

| C aroline felt really nervous actually. She knew what to expect, but it still made her feel nervous. She knew that she wasn't alone and that Declan was right there for her, so that helped her calm down quite a lot. She was so grateful that he was there for her, though. It made everything a lot better for her. She didn't want to imagine how this would have gone if she had been all on her own. There was no denying that Caroline was scared, but she felt like she could do this because she had Declan there with her, helping her every step of the way and what more could she possibly ask for, really? Caroline felt a soft smile appear on her lips when Declan told her that she was one of the strongest people he knew. Sometimes, she didn't really believe that. Sometimes she felt like she was so weak and unable to face all the hardships life threw at her but the other part that often won was the side that was ready to face everything. The side that was ready to prove to everyone that she could do everything they thought she couldn't. She was a fighter in every sense of the term and she was proud of herself for not giving up half-way when things got too hard. Like when she was first turned. That moment, to her, was the hardest bit. Killing an innocent soul had been the hardest thing to push through because that man was married. He had a family to return to, but now he was no longer alive and it was because of her. But Stefan, Declan, and her best friends helped her push through it and from there on, she promised that she would help those going through that same type of situation. People who weren't as lucky as she was or didn't have the same type of friends she had. She wanted to help people going through the shift from human to vampire because she knew that it would possibly be the hardest time for them. Caroline sometimes forgot that she was mixed in with another species, though. It felt so strange. Sometimes, she would lose control momentarily and when her claws come out, that's when she'd fight to regain control before anyone could see them. She had told Stefan and her best friends about this because she didn't have it in her to hide them. After all, they had all agreed on no more secrets and she was going to do everything in her might to keep that promise going. "Thank you, Dec." She said in a soft voice, her eyes settling on her boyfriend once more. "For being here for me. I don't know what I would've done if you weren't here," Caroline breathed out, her tone filled with gratitude as her eyes relaxed on him. Caroline nodded her head a few times when he told her that the pain will become a memory more than anything else. "Okay," She breathed out in a relieved voice, her hand reaching up to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear. "Is it... going to start soon? Can you tell?" Caroline's eyes shifted to settle on the full moon that seemed to be glaring back at her in that particular moment. |

Dec had grown up knowing that one day he would start turning into a tiger with each full moon. It had never been a case of if it would happen, both his parents were weretigers and one by one his older siblings had started to shift as they got older so he had never doubted that it would be the same for him and Amy. There was always a chance that one of them would be different but deep down he had known that it wouldn’t happen and he had made his peace with that. He was terrified the first time he shifted but he’d had his family there to help him through it and he knew that now it was time for him to help Caroline. Dec knew that he would have been lost without his family around him and even though things were different now considering that he, Caroline, Amy and Jesse were all chimeras and they were all just doing their best to figure it out. Caroline had been helping him learn to control his vampire side and now it was his turn to do the same for her with her weretiger side. It wasn’t easy but he had seen how well she had adjusted to being a vampire after she was turned and he knew that as she got used to what would happen with each full moon from now on then she would take that in her stride just like she did everything else. He had learned a long time ago that Caroline could do just about anything when she put her mind to it and that still hadn’t changed. Shifting into a tiger always hurt but Dec was used to that pain now and the truth was that it didn’t affect him anywhere near as much as it used to. He had found an anchor to help him stay in control and he hoped that he could be that for Caroline now. They had been friends for such a long time before they got together but there had always been something more between them and they had finally acknowledged that even though it had taken time for them to figure that out. If Caroline hadn’t almost lost control while they were at prom then he wasn’t sure if they ever would have come clean to each other but he was glad that they had figured it out in the end because he had been in love with Caroline for as long as he could remember and he knew that there wasn’t anyone else that he would rather be with. “You have nothing to thank me for babe, there’s no way I would let you go through this alone,” Dec assured her. He had done his best to support her after she became a vampire even though he hadn’t really known much about them back then. That hadn’t stopped him and he knew that nothing was going to stop him from being there for his girlfriend when she needed him. He and Caroline had always looked out for each other and that wasn’t something that he saw changing at all. He hadn’t thought that he would ever end up becoming a vampire as well and it had taken him a while to get his head around that fact but in a way it was a relief to know that he wasn’t going to have to worry about Caroline watching him get older any longer. Instead they could just be there for each other and he was glad that he had that chance. As she asked if it was going to start soon, Dec didn’t even have to look up at the moon to be able to answer – he could already feel it. “Any minute now. Can you feel it?” he asked, not sure if she could just yet or not. CAROLINE FORBES

| C aroline felt grateful to have Declan in her life because having him here made it so easy for her to feel like she could face anything in her life. Especially this tough situation. The sound of his voice eased her a lot, too. The tension in her shoulders was definitely lessening, making it easier for her to take a deep breath and release it slowly, whispering a soft 'I can do this' under her breath as a silent encouragement to push through this. She had Declan right there beside her which definitely made her feel like she could face anything. "I know, I still wanted to say it, though." Caroline said with a soft smile resting on her lips, her eyes resting lovingly on Declan, the man she loved more than anything. Caroline could feel the build up of it under her skin. "It... feels like a buzz under my skin?" She explained in a confused voice but it soon turned into something else when the pain started setting in and that's when she realized it will become more than just a buzz under her skin. It will become something a lot more painful and so she braced herself. The first break caused a loud yelp to fall from Caroline's lips and when it healed only to break again, Caroline found herself in continuous torture. It hurt so much but she pushed through it, knowing that she wasn't alone right now. The pain lasted for God knows how long, she had lost her grasp on the time but eventually, she finally shifted and turned into a beautiful white tiger. It felt so ... freeing.She felt so powerful and ... elegant. She felt like a powerful creature and she felt free too. She turned to look at Declan before she light-heartedly pounced on him before getting off him not long after as she started running through the woods, feeling so relieved and happy. So this is what it felt like, huh? |

Dec had grown up knowing about the supernatural world. Both of his parents were weretigers and as each of his siblings got older it had always been expected that each one of them would shift when they were old enough. It was the same for Dec and Amy, they were both told fairly early on what they would become and their parents had done their best to prepare them for what would happen when the time came. They were a few years younger than all of their older siblings so they’d had plenty of people that they could go to for advice but aside from turning to Julian a few times he and Amy had tried to figure out most of it on their own. Now things had changed and they were no longer just weretigers, they were vampires as well. Dec still didn’t know how that was possible since it went against everything that he had always been told about the supernatural world but he and Amy had completed the transition and both Care and Jesse were now able to shift so he knew that it was true. Whatever had happened to them the day they were taken had resulted in their very DNA being changed. Caroline’s blood had made Dec a vampire and Jesse’s had done the same for Amy while their blood had made the two of them weretigers in return. It really was incredible but they were all dealing with it as best they could. Now it was Caroline’s first full moon and Dec knew that he wanted to be there for her through it all. She had been helping him get to grips with his vampire side and he knew that now it was his turn to help her. Amy was doing the same for Jesse and he knew that once they got the first full moon out of the way and knew more about what to expect then it would get easier after that. “I know and I love you for it,” Dec said, a smile forming on his face as he looked over at his girlfriend. He could still remember just how scared he was during his first full moon shift and he wanted to try and help her as much as he could. He loved Caroline with all his heart and he knew that if he could spare her from the pain that was about to come then he would but he hoped she would think it was worth it once she got through it. “That’s how it always starts. Soon your body will begin to change,” he explained. Dec’s heart ached when Caroline cried out as her bones began to break and he kept talking to her, coaching her through it as she began to shift. The first one always took the longest so Dec had time before his own shift began to start but eventually they both finished shifting into white tigers and Dec looked over at Caroline, trying to figure out how she was feeling about it. He knew that it was easy to let the tiger take over and lost control but Dec had found an anchor and he hoped that now he could be that for Caroline as well. It wasn’t long before she pounced on him and he nuzzled his head against hers gently before taking off after her as she started running through the woods, enjoying the feeling so much more than he ever had done before now that he had Caroline there with him. Things were going better than he had thought so far and he hoped that things were going just as well for Amy and Jesse. CAROLINE FORBES
