Saving Me

Chapter 4 Gavin Van Helsing

Mina had eventually convinced Sam to come out of her room. They all soon walked out of the ship. Transylvania looked dirty, grimy, and deserted; for good reason. The atmosphere was dull. Buildings were either abandoned, torn down, or collapsing. The streets have mostly rotted away. The sky was always dark.

"Jack the Ripper has found his way here too" Skinner remarked.

"Sam, do you remember where Gavin lives?" Mina asked Sam.

Sam frowned and answered miserably. "I remember like it was yesterday." She led them down several blocks and across several streets. She stopped at a huge mansion with a wrap-around porch and balcony. She knocked on the brass knocker.

A tall handsome man with medium-length brown hair and forest-green eyes answered the door. "Samantha Quatermain, what brings you here after all these years?" Gavin Van Helsing asked curiously. He nodded in greeting to the rest of the League.

"Dracula's not dead after all, and he's taken the Frankenstein monster," Sam explained.

"We need your help," Mina added.

Gavin invited them inside. They sat themselves in couches and armchairs. The place looked similar to Dorian's manor. Gavin glared at Sawyer because he was sitting awfully close to Sam on a couch. Sam pretended not to notice.

"Now tell me what this is about?" Gavin asked when everyone was comfortable. Sam told him of her vision. "That's strange, we thought Dracula had been dead for all these years." He said.

"And he seems to be living in your backyard by the looks of it" Skinner remarked. Nemo smacked him on the arm. Gavin glared at Skinner, but restrained from commenting.

"Skinner likes to make everyone's lives miserable," Allan said apologetically.

"He does a good job at it too," Sawyer said.

"Will you help us Gavin?" Mina asked.

After a brief moment, Gavin nodded. "I will," he said. He never took his eyes off of Sam.

"What's the plan?" Jekyll asked.

Gavin thought for a moment. "Alright, here's the plan…"

Thanks for the lovely reviews, I'll try to update as frequently as I can, if doesn't occupy my life at the time. Next chapter is the plan on how to rescue Frankenstein, I'm going to start writing Frankie because his name is too long to type.
