"Twilight's Curse: The Sinister Symphony of Alastor"
2 Points
1
The shadows clung to your edges as twilight faded, wrapping around you like an invisible cloak. Only the eerie, intermittent hum of your old transistor radio punctuated the silence. On any other day, perhaps you would have savored such simplicity. Perhaps you could still smell the remnants of freshly made coffee, still hear the laughter of a friend left behind only days ago. But this wasn't any other day. It was the night of the full moon, and you knew all too well that nothing would quell the impending transformation except the dawn’s first light.
You'd fought the change every moonlit night since the attack, ever since Alastor had wounded you and cursed you with that gleaming, sinister smile. Your throat twinged where his teeth had torn flesh, and your heart pounded like an eerie drumbeat, your pulse synced with the glowing orb in the night sky. The silver light of the full moon had an almost magnetic pull, forcing you to lift your gaze against your will. When your eyes met its gaze, the process began.
"What a delightful reunion," Alastor's voice echoed within the corridors of your crumbling resolve, his accent teasing and insidious. "Do you still think you can resist me, darling?"
An icy shiver snaked up your spine as the changes seized you—a sudden, profound pain in your bones. Your height shot up, your body stretching and transforming, morphing into something—someone—entirely different. Your flesh paled to that familiar, unnatural beige and your limbs grew unnaturally slender yet strong. The smoking jacket and comfortable jeans melted from your body, warping into Alastor's dapper pinstripe coat, red dress shirt, and black trousers.
"No! Help me, someone!" you screamed, but your voice was drowned by the sound of your vocal cords reshaping. Already, the cadence and timbre transformed into the vintage-radio resonance. Your cries shifted from pleas to Alastor's sinister laugh, echoing through the night. The teeth grew and sharpened, the permanent smile etching itself onto your features.
You fought it, desperately tried to cling to the memories of who you were—that favorite song, the warmth of a lover’s embrace, the laughter of friends. But Alastor's memories began to flood in, pushing out everything you held dear. The smell of Jambalaya, the adrenaline rush of a good prank, the pleasure of senseless violence—all of it washed over you, suffocating the fragments of your old self.
"Marvelous,” Alastor whispered through your own reshaped lips, the monocle settling comfortably over your right eye. “You do make a wonderful twin, my dear.”
You turned the thin cane in your hand, marveling at the sentient vintage style microphone that now crowned it. The tiny eye in the center glanced back at you, wicked pleasure oozing from its gaze. With a flicker of thought, your shadow warped and twisted, creating a portal to the small village down the road.
"Time for a bit of broadcasting, wouldn't you say?" Alastor's—and now your—voice dripped with malice.
As you stepped through the portal, landing with a sinister flourish in the town square, a dozen confused faces turned to you. Panic spread like wildfire as they recognized the terrifying visage of Alastor—only worse now, as there were two of you.
"Greetings, dear listeners,” you announced, your voice echoing like a spectral broadcast. “Welcome to tonight's feature presentation!"
The original Alastor appeared beside you, his eyes glinting with approval. “Ah, nothing like the delight of mortal fear. Shall we begin?”
Your smile widened, matching his exactly. "Indeed. It's showtime."
With a wave of your cane, you broadcast chaos. Fireballs erupted around you, shadows engulfing terrified souls as you played a melody of screams and cries for mercy. Alastor laughed alongside you, creating a symphony of shadows and flames, reveling in the delicious chaos.
Each night of the full moon, you would transform into this sinister twin, only to revert back at dawn. Each month you prayed for salvation, but come nightfall, the curse would render you Alastor - or Were-Alastor, as he so fondly called himself during these nights.
And no matter how desperately you clung to the fragments of who you once were, Alastor’s memories and personality swallowed you whole, leaving you to remember one truth as morning neared: you were no longer who you once were. You were Alastor, the Radio Demon, broadcasting terror to the mortal realm one full moon at a time.
"Until next time, dear listeners," you purred, lifting your cane as the first hints of dawn broke the night. "Stay tuned.”

Prompt: Write the POV transformation story of the mortal human reader being cursed and transformed in every full moon night into an identical twin brother of Alastor (from an adults cartoon/animated series Hazbin Hotel), complete with gender change (if the reader is a female), instant clothes change, age progression (becoming the age of 30s-40s years old, exactly as left off from Alastor's death from his human life in 1933, becoming immortal in the process), height progression (growing from a normal height to 7 feet tall), voice change, and mind/mental change (with the reader's personalities and memories being permanently and completely replaced with Alastor's personality and memories, despite his best efforts of fighting the new personality and memories, making him completely forget about his past self and only remember being Alastor the Radio Demon). For the reader's WereAlastor/Were-Alastor appearance (after the reader turned into his identical twin brother every full moon night), he is identical to Alastor in every way, in height, proportions, appearance, deep and voice (sounding like it's coming from an old vintage radio), supernatural powers, personality, and preferences. He also has his own thin cane with a sentient vintage style microphone attached to it, being of the different color from Alastor's own sentient vintage style microphone attached to it, whilst also having an eye in the middle of the microphone, and the WereAlastor/Were-Alastor reader uses his microphone-tipped cane to play sound effects and broadcast his voice. For Alastor's appearance, he is a slim (having an unnaturally thin torso, neck, arms, and legs, except his shoulders are broad), dapper sinner demon with beige-colored skin, and usually has an unnaturally broad smile (reaching from each cheek's upper area) full of sharp, yellow teeth (he has no ability to frown due to this permanent smile). He is approximately 7 feet tall. He is completely hairless except for his eyebrows, eyelashes, and the hair on the side, back, and top of his head (like a human's). He sports a pinkish-red cropped, angled bob-cut with black tips at the ends and two large, black tipped tufts of hair extending from the top of his head, evoking the ears of a deer. The style has an undercut at the back, and two small black antlers protruding from the crown, which can grow in size in his full demonic form. Alastor's eyes have dark-red sclerae, bright-red irises and thin black pupils (which can change into the shape of radio dials when shifting into his full demon form). His forearms and lower legs fade to dark grey, and he has red hoof-toed feet and red clawed fingers. Alastor wears a red pinstripe coat with dark-red lapels piped with white, which is ragged along the bottom hem. Underneath this he wears a bright red dress-shirt with a black cross on the chest, and long black dress pants with matching bright red cuffs. He also wears a dark-red oval-shaped monocle, rimmed with black, over his right eye. He accessorizes with a black knotted bowtie with a bright red center, black gloves with red at the fingertips, and black pointed-toe boots with red deer hoofprints emblazoned on the soles. Alastor also carries a thin cane with a sentient vintage style microphone attached to it, which he uses to play sound effects and broadcast his voice. His voice also sounds like it is coming from an old-fashioned vintage radio. Alastor has many supernatural powers, such as demon transformation (the ability to turn into a more powerful demon form), flexibility (able to contort his body into numerous unnatural poses), demonic magic (able to cast magic thanks to the high power-level he has accrued in the demon ranking system, this magic takes the visual form of glowing red symbols that resemble Voodoo veve, which float around him), shadow manipulation (able to summon shadows and manipulate them into doing his bidding), spatial warping (able to get around with the help of his shadow, allowing teleportation through this ability), portal creation (able to transport others to his location easily via the portals he makes), pyrokinesis (able to summon small balls of fire for display purpose), phytokinesis (able to make plants wilt with a single stare), manifestation, photokinesis (able to project red glowing light from his eyes as well as his microphone), and outfit alteration (capable of changing the outfits of his targets as well as his own with a snap of a finger). He is also capable of various other abilities including deal-making (as Alastor is known to be a deal-maker demon; deal-maker demons like Alastor can increase their power by dealing in souls, which is a very powerful commodity in hell, so they’re seen as very manipulative and not to be toyed with, deal-making is not something every demon can do, as such it is not to be taken lightly as it doesn’t generally work out well for the other party), broadcasting (when he was a living human, Alastor's profession was as a radio show host, and he continues his broadcasts in Hell as a demon, ensuring that Hell's denizens are aware of his activities over the airwaves, earning him the title of "The Radio Demon"), bilingualism (Alastor can speak English fluently as well as some broken Creole French), cooking (Alastor is noted to be "a big foodie" and mentions having admired his mother's cooking, specifically her Jambalaya), musical/dancing/theatrical talent (Alastor is known to display moderate vocal abilities and excels at dancing, with some people noting tap to be a style he excels in specifically, he also shows a flair for theatrical showmanship), and wide intellect (Alastor is known to be quite a cunning individual, resulting in him accruing a large amount of power through his tricks and deal-making). For his personality, Alastor stands out from many of the more chaotic residents of hell for his well maintained amiable persona. He gives the first-impression of a good-natured and charming man, wearing a permanently wide grin on his face at all times. Alastor's behavior, mannerisms, and even his manly voice are similar to an old-fashioned radio announcer and speaks with a transatlantic accent (always literally sound like he is talking through a vintage radio), often using quaint anachronisms such as "the picture show" and refers to Charlie as a "charming demon belle". This playful dandyish exterior, however, obscures a much darker side to him - one with high levels of self-importance - and he will not hesitate to use physical violence when others don't act in line with his very particular values or expectations. For Alastor's preferences, he likes/loves smiling, invading people's personal space, his mother and her cooking, the "picture show", strong liquor, cooking, people failing, playing pranks, black coffee, bitter tastes, theater, dancing, the Stock Market Crash of 1929, and venison; however, he dislikes being touched, dogs (possibly related to his death as a mortal human in 1933), frowning, tea, anything sweet, Angel Dust's sexual remarks, post-30s' technology, and anyone ruining his outfit. The story is that the reader has been cursed by being attacked by Alastor the Radio Demon himself, with Alastor biting the reader in the throat and ripping chunks of flesh, causing major blood loss (the reader however survives, just injured), before Alastor tells the reader it it's only the beginning of the curse. Just days later, at one night, when the moon is full (and after the reader sees the full moon), the reader undergoes a transformation. But he does not transform into a werewolf as he initially believes/thinks by the start of the transformation, instead, the reader transforms (against his will) completely into an identical clone of Alastor the Radio Demon, in both body and mind, every full moon night (the reader tries to fight back all the changes and call for help from his friend(s)/family, but to no avail), leaving the reader now completely transformed into Alastor (known to himself and the terrified humans as "Were-Alastor" or "WereAlastor" (which Alastor also likes to call himself every full moon night after transforming from a mortal, even claiming to scared mortal humans that he is "Were-Alastor" or "WereAlastor") due to transforming from a mortal boy every full moon night). The original Alastor, who had placed a curse on the reader just by biting the reader a few nights earlier, watches the transforming the reader and instantly befriends the new Alastor. The new Alastor, formerly the reader, now broadcasts throughout the mortal realm (Earth) alongside the original Alastor, with both the original Alastor and the new Alastor (known as "Were-Alastor" or "WereAlastor") also killing and feasting on any mortal humans and their souls from the mortal world every night on Earth when the moon is full (the reader transforms back to a normal human when morning arrives, but the reader transforms back into the Were-Alastor when it's a full moon night again). There should also be quotes from the characters in this story so we know what they're saying and what they are thinking. Also, it is a POV reader story, so it should not be in an author's point of view (my, I, mine, etc), and it should be from the point of view of the reader (you, your, etc).
