I hold no claim to the characters from this kick-ass movie and Velkara and Mikeal are my only characters.
A little short, but it is an introduction :D
Chapter One
Werewolf Hunters
"I'm telling you that this is a bad idea," Velkara Valerious whispered to her brother again in worry as she tied him to the post. "Why must you harm the creature? He feeds on cattle. That's it. He has yet to harm us."
"He works for Dracula," Velkan told his sister.
"There is more than just one werewolf, brother," She told her twin. "What if this is not the one you're after?"
"Either way," Velkan shook his head. "When both of them are dead, we will be a step closer to killing Dracula."
Velkara sighed at her twin and shook her head. "Just be careful." She gave him a swift kiss on the cheek before taking off into the cold trees. Everyone was in position so she quickly made her way to hers.
She paused at the sight of a man in her section and then sighed.
The man had long silver hair that he kept tied behind his back and shining golden eyes. Dressed in black leather pants and boots, all he wore was a white shirt and a golden, knight chess piece on his ear(if you have read any of my other stories, you will have seen that earring before. That is a trademark of the characters my little brother wanted me to add into my stories for him, lol. That, and Rush in the last name of many of my characters too. XD).
She could hardly believe that he could stand the cold like he did, but she knew that he wasn't cold.
"So, is he in place?" The man asked, scratching the side of his face.
"Yes," Velkara nodded. "Be careful Mikeal," She told the man beside her. "Don't let your brother hurt my brother too much."
"That beast is not my brother," Mikeal growled. "Dracula is just trying to get what he does not have and his tactics are foolish."
At Velkara's chuckle, Mikeal took a glance at her. The woman's dark brown hair was pulled back into a braid and her green eyes were fierce. She dressed in leather pants and boots herself, but her shirt was black as well, not the white that the others in her family wore. No jewelry, beside the Gypsy pendant her mother had given her, was on her body, and a white jacket much like her sisters was on her shoulders as a sword hung on her hip and a whip on her back belt-loop.
"Just don't do anything foolish, Mikeal." Velkara told the man as he turned to leave.
"You know me." He laughed as he hurried off into the trees.
"That's why I warned you!" She called after him and then turned back to the scene with a smile. It fell though as a sudden, dreaded feeling wafted around the trees. She watched as her twin stood there at the post, ready to move.
After a few moments, at a low growl, Velkan lifted his head. "Come on. Dracula unleashed you for a reason." He growled.
It took a moment but the grey and black Werewolf finally broke out and Velkan moved, pulling himself onto the tip of the post he was tied to. As the beast clawed at the post, Velkan grabbed the rope that hung above him the men began to pull him up.
The rope got stuck though and it left the Prince stuck in the air like a treat for the roaring Werewolf that was trying to claw at him as it jumped in the air.
Velkara watched as Anna drew her blade.
"Anna, stop!" Velkara called to her sister, but she was ignored. With a roll of her eyes, Velkara blew a loud whistle before running forward and jumping onto her sister's back. Both women fell to the ground as a large bundle of silver fur jumped onto the other werewolf that had just spotted them and across the clearing both of the werewolves rolled, clawing and biting at the other. It was then that the silver Werewolf kicked the other one with its hind legs, kicking it off of him and into the pole as Velkan screamed for them to cut the rope. As the beast fell, the trap fell and it dropped into the cage they had set up and yanked him into the air.
"There are two of them!" Anna cried out if fear, backing up a bit as Velkara stayed in front of her.
Velkan's shots with his gun made both women turn to their brother, giving the silver werewolf time to jump back into the trees. Velkan was hit by the cage and his gun was knocked out of his hand.
"Velkan!" Anna cried as Velkara bit her lip.
Into the tree their brother jumped as the werewolf continued to ravage in the cage. The men around the sisters began to fire at it and Velkara shook her head.
"You need silver bullets to kill a werewolf!" She reminded them as she and Anna searched for the gun their brother had dropped in the leaves.
Like idiots though, the men continued to fire and one of them shot the rope holding the cage. Combine that with the weight and the fact the werewolf was struggling to get out, the cage, of course, dropped…right in front of Anna and Velkara.
Velkara grabbed her sister's hand and dragged her behind her as she ran. The cold air was stinging her throat but Velkara was not going to stop. Until they reached the cliff. Velkara placed her sister behind her, pulling out her sword, but sighed in relief as the silver werewolf appeared again, knocking the other out of the air and back into the trees. Snarls and growls were heard as the snapping of twigs and thundering against the ground.
"Why do they fight each other?" Anna demanded, breathing hard from the running. "Why are there two of them?"
Velkara kept silent as she prayed for Mikeal to stay safe. Velkara was the only one that knew Mikeal's secret. She had found him wounded and half-dead in the alleyway one night years ago when she was a child. She took care of him, brought him back to health so the two of them bonded over years. She had kept his werewolf blood secret for years, due to one thing.
Dracula had been after Mikeal for years. He was the only true werewolf in the world, the others being created by Dracula through tests and examinations. And with him being a true Werewolf, Mikeal didn't have to wait for the Full Moon to transform into his beast form. He could transform whenever he liked and so, he did, but in secrecy. It was lucky that he could control himself, too.
Mikeal had been hidden from Dracula since Velkara found him. This was the first time in years that Mikeal had transformed in his wolf form for battle, and that was a good thing.
Roars brought Velkara from her thoughts and she froze at the sight of the giant ball of blood and fur rolling towards them. As the two werewolves continued to tumble towards the sister in their fight, Velkan came out of nowhere and pushed them both out of the way. He turned in time to shoot a silver bullet before the trio went over the cliff, splashing down into the water below.
Velkara pulled herself out from under her sister and ran to the cliff. "VELKAN!" She cried, reaching down for him.
But the three forms were already washed away in the water. She didn't know how to react, so she just staring down after them as she gripped the edge of the cliff in her hands.
"God," She heard Anna pray behind her. "Help us."
Please Review! :)
