When the black van arrived at the hotel, the air was filled with joy and happiness, as both monsters and humans were celebrating the day when Hotel Transylvania had first opened its doors to human public. No one seemed to notice the four men that walked out of the suspicious looking vehicle. But, as soon as the first bullet was shot, mayhem started. Humans and monsters ran into every direction, none of them knowing what to do. Some hid inside the hotel, some fled. No one had expected an attack, and the hotel was not fully prepared to handle one. Luckily, none of the guests was harmed, since the four men seemed to be focusing on something else.
Dennis had happily been flying around the hotel, under the close surveillance of his father. When the attack started, Jhonny had panicked. He stood there, trying to figure out how to lead his son to the safety of the hotel. Every window was closed, and the only way into it was the main door. He decided that it was too risky to enter from there, and went blank. He didn't notice the four armed men approaching his son, who had detransformed and was attempting to get his father out of his trance. It was then when he saw the cannons aiming directly at his son. The time seemed to stop, to freeze. Jhonny, without hesitating, jumped in front of his son, arms extended to the sides.
He felt his body burn, while countless bullets partially pierced his flesh, none of them managing to even touch Dennis. When the men stopped firing, Jhonny fell to the floor, instantly going limp. At the sight of this, the aggressors, who were shocked by Jhonny's action, not knowing what to do, decided to flee.
All Dennis could see when that hapoened was a green and orange figure bolting past next to him, and then, his father's body on the floor. His mind started racing as fast as it could. The first thing he did was to grab his father's body, and carried it into the hotel. The next thing he did was to scream for help on top of his lungs. And then he helplessly started crying, calling for his father's name, and trying to tell him he would be alright.
It was then, when Mavis and Dracula, having heard Dennis's scream stormed into the hall. Mavis started looking for her son, believing he had been hurt. Relief washed trough her body as she saw Dennis safe and sound. That feeling didn't last, because as soon as her eyes left Dennis and she caught sight of his husband's body on the floor, she couldn't help but think the worst had happened. She rushed to the side of his husband, and the same did Drac. They quickly checked him, and they could feel that Johnny's temperature was starting to drop. Drac shook his head, and Mavis covered her mouth with her hands, tears forming on her eyes. At the realisation of this, Dennis did the only thing he had been told to never do. He took his father's hand and bit it.
Both Mavis and Drac flinched, and they tried to stop him, to no avail.
The damage had already been done.
