==Summary==
Henry walks through the door of the storage shed and into a dark room. The room is only lit by a small red light in the center of the room. He feels blindly around the room, finding three of the walls feel the same except for one wall that feels like glass. He finds a door, but it won't open. He can hear some muffled noises behind the glass wall. He goes back to the middle of the room where the red light is and finds there is one button on either side of the lit one. He leans in close and sees that the lit button in the middle has no label, but one button is labelled 'Sammie' and the other is labelled 'Bjorn.'
Henry does not want to press any of the buttons. He sits there and waits to see if anything will happen. Nothing does, apart from hearing the muffled noises. He finally decides to hit the lit up button. It turns lights on behind the glass wall. He can now see Bjorn and Sammie are hanging by their wrists in the lit room, blindfolded and gagged. There is a note written in blood that says, "Choose." The whirring sound of saws begins. Henry bangs on the glass to try and get their attention. They are unable to talk through their gags. The circular saws are moving closer and closer to Bjorn and Sammie. 
Henry tells Bjorn he's sorry and then presses the button labelled Sammie. The saw on Sammie's side stops, but the one on Bjorn's side moves faster. The saw hits Bjorn's scales on his neck and then cuts through. Henry can't believe what he's seeing. The room around him seems to shimmer for a moment, he's almost able to see through it, but when he reaches his hand out it feels so real everything snaps back into place. He then hears a door unlock behind him. As he starts to leave through the door, he hears the saws start up again. Henry tries to tell himself it's not real and he doesn't turn around to look. He hears Sammie scream as he exits. 
Sammie suddenly finds herself in a forest. She seems to be in the middle of nowhere. She looks down and notices a blood trial leading farther into the forest. The door she's come through is still behind her, but closes on its own. She hears a growl in the trees above her and beside her. There is a loud thump behind her. She is slashed across the back as she turns. Sammie is suddenly face to face with the wendigo. 
The wendigo looks different now, dripping with its poisonous black blood. Sammie tries to slash upward at its throat with her knife, but the wendigo bites down onto her shoulder and throws her into the woods. She tries to run away, but the wendigo slashes at her back. Sammie shoots a fireball at the wendigo, managing to blast it back enough that she can get to her feet and make a run for it. She follows the trail of blood through the woods that she spotted earlier and soon notices a door down the path. She makes her way to it as fast as she can, but the wendigo manages to get one more slash in across her back before she can make it through the door. 
Bjorn's door has led him into a library. There is a large skylight in the ceiling of the room that shines a beam of moonlight down onto a pedestal in the middle of the room that holds a single book, which appears to be open to a specific page. Bjorn is a bit confused and disoriented, but decides to search the room. Keeping his gun at the ready, he searches the edges of the room away from the moonlight first. As he searches, it seems like just a regular antique book collection. 
As soon as Bjorn steps into the moonlight, the sick feeling he's been having intensifies tenfold. He falls to his hands and knees. He watches as his hands and arm start to distort. He feels his bones snapping and transforming and he is suddenly covered in thick white hair. When the transformation is complete, he is a werewolf. Once the transformation takes place, the sick feeling is gone. He is a large, pure white wolf. Bjorn suddenly realizes that when they fought Winston, the werewolf bit through his scales.
A man walks into the room. Bjorn hides behind a bookshelf to avoid being seen. The man approaches the book on the pedestal. Bjorn, in his new wolf form, has heightened senses. Even from a distance, he can hear the man's heartbeat. He suddenly smells his blood, realizing the man must have cut himself somewhere, and the blood smells delicious. Bjorn fights the need to lunge at the man and devour him, but finds himself stepping forward into the light. The man notices him and immediately looks scared. Bjorn growls at him in an attempt to scare him away and is successful. Bjorn then manages to exit through another door.
