Jealous Green Monster

"Get out of my house, right now!" screamed Alexander Tillman. His neighbor, Jason Felix had just broken into his house, armed with a .22 Glock pointed right at Tillman.

Jason yelled back,  "If I don't deserve to live a fancy life like you, than neither do you," drunkenly slurring his words and flexing his finger on the trigger.

"I don't know what you are talking about and my wife is calling the police right now, so better leave right now!"

As Jason moved toward him, Alex did what he believed was his only option. He woged, revealing his true form as a Fenghuang, a magnificent phoenix Wesen. His body sprouted bright yellow-orange feathers, with a crest of longer feathers on his head. Tillman's nose curved down into a short, black beak and his hands, as well as his feet, sprouted fearsome talons. His eyes began to glow an entrancing gold. Alex opened his mouth and released a jet of golden flames directly at Jason. Jason hissed at the fire and fled out of the house. Alex's wife, Sarah, came running down the stairs and, seeing the fire damage in the living room, woged. She looked very much like her husband, but lacked the crown of feathers on his head, as it is a trait only seen in male Fenghuang.

"Are you okay, did Jason hurt you?!" she questioned.

"I'm okay, but this neighborhood isn't with that lunatic running around. That eel is one crazy son of a..."

When Jason got back to his home, a dingy one-story house hidden behind untrimmed shrubs only five houses down the street from the Tillmans' lake front mansion, he stumbled to his refrigerator and downed half a beer in mere seconds. Then he woged out of pure fury. His skin became slick and slimy, covered in dark green to brown scales. A fin that started at the top of his head, which lost all hair, ran the length of his spine. His face elongated slightly, forming an almost reptilian snout and his mouth was full of hundreds of small, needly teeth. His eyes glassed over and became unblinking fish eyes. Wrinkly skin formed on his cheeks and gills appeared on his neck. Then, he hatched a plan.

Jason Felix was a Gestrecktenfisch, an eel-like Wesen known for their reclusiveness and jealousy. He was a shaggy, unkept drunk that the neighborhood knew to stay away from. His neighbors, the Tillmans, were a prime target for him because Alex Tillman made a large amount of money from the advertising firm he co-created. The Tillmans were a very good looking couple, as most Fenghuang are, and lived in a large, beautiful house; many people would be jealous of them.

A few days after the first incident, Jason watched the Tillman house from afar until he saw them leave in their Jaguar convertible. He rushed to his house and grabbed a bottle of vodka from his refrigerator. He then ran to the Tillman house and stopped at the front door. He woged, drawing strength from his true form, and punched his hand through the glass door. As he entered a loud alarm went off, but did not deter him. Jason ran to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator, where he found a half-full soda bottle. He opened the bottle and poured a portion of the vodka into the soda; enough to take affect, but not enough to distort the color. Then, he replaced the bottle and ran away.

About an hour later, the Tillmans returned home. When they reached the end of the cobblestone walkway, they saw the broken glass and heard the alarm.

"Probably, the lunatic down the street again," said Alex. "Stay here, I'll check every room."

Only 20 minutes later, he came out after finding no trace of Jason being there. "He probably just wanted to break our stuff and the alarm scared him away."

A few hours later, Alex mindlessly opened the fridge and drank from the bottle of soda that Jason had altered. He became suspicious of the taste and even more scared as a hot pain formed in the center of his abdomen. The pain turned to agony and Alex screamed as the center of his torso ignited in flames. There was nothing he nor Sarah could do as the flames ravaged his body and burned him to death and beyond recognition.
