John becomes something he once believed existed only in myths and make believe. Or has he? Whatever he has become, he must use it to protect his new found friends and himself. Facing battles both within and without, he must rise above his circumstances and embrace the changes he is going through. There is no other way, because the changes offer the only possibility of survival. Especially those things that make him something that breaks his heart. He must become the monster to protect his friends and the one he loves. Feeling he has become something dirty and unworthy of love, still he embraces the changes for the sake of love. If this is the sacrifice required to save them, he finds the cost more affordable than saving himself from what he has become. Yet perhaps, there is still hope. Love can do that.
