CHAPTER 6
I do not own Doctor Who or Dracula and I am making no profit off of this.

This story takes up the story of War of the Guardians and Children of the Wolf. It picks up where Children of the Wolf left off.
The woman who had been known as Daisy was brought inside of a TARDIS that had been captured by the vampires during the ongoing fighting. She stood in front of the TARDIS' console, and some of the Cybermen used their great strength to open it and expose her to its heart!
The Cybermen were instantly vaporized by the power of the Vortex, but Daisy was unharmed. She used the power to reconnect with her Ouroboros self that still existed inside of the Vortex where it had gone when she had been changed into a human, and then she used its power to change herself back into a Time Lady once again.
She now was once again the Ouroboros, but it was not enough. She wanted the power of the Great Vampires. She wanted that power combined with her own. She was sure that it would make her the most powerful being in all of reality and would give her more than enough power to wipe out Rose Tyler once and for all!
"Are you certain that you want this? Once it is done, it cannot be undone. Lesser vampires like Cleopatra may be able to be cured, but a vampire created by me is permanent unless I am permanently destroyed. You may well be the undead for all eternity," Dracula warned her.
"Yes, I do want this, but I don't want to be immortal with this face. This is the face of the Ouroboros, and I am no longer her. I wish to be a new entity once you change me with a new name and a new face," The Ouroboros said.
Dracula stood back as the alternate universe Arkytior began to glow with regenerative energy, and then it exploded out of her head and arms as she regenerated. As the glow faded, Dracula gasped in surprise as he saw that she looked exactly like Rose Tyler now!
"Don't be so surprised! I am the Arkytior of an alternate world. Of course I would more than likely have the same look to my regeneration as Rose Tyler's. This is the face I want to wear, Dracula. I want her own face to be the one that she sees destroying everything that she ever loved! Now go ahead, and do what you must," Ouroboros said as she bent her neck back.
He began to drink her blood; and as he did so, he made a cut in his arm. She then proceeded to drink some of his blood as well from the open wound.
He drank until he had drained her completely, and then she fell dead to the ground. Normally it took a while before a vampire would rise again once they had been drained, but this vampire was not a normal one. The Vortex energy within her instantly brought her back to life, and she rose from the dead with an evil parody of the real Rose Tyler's face wide grin on her face!
"I am returned! The Ouroboros is dead! I am the Pythia now!" the evil Arkytior said in a posh version of Rose Tyler's voice.
"How do you feel? Is your power any greater now after having combined the power of the Vortex with that of the Great Vampires?" Dracula asked her.
The Pythia smiled at him that same evil smile as before as she said, "Oh yes. I can now not only control the living but also the dead. The natural and the supernatural are now both mine to command."
Her eyes glowed with power as she instantly connected to all of the vampires on Earth. They all obeyed her now as well as Dracula. She could also now see and hear all that they could hear in addition to being able to sense their presence and read their thoughts. She was the queen of a new vampire hive mind.
"It's time to create the first of a new race of vampires I think. A new species of vampire with the power of the Vortex! The first one though must be special. They must be the prototype. I think that I know how I have in mind. I will win you your war, Dracula. I will win it in short order, and then the two of us will rule side by side together for all of eternity!" the Pythia said as she vanished in a shower of ebony energy. Her connection to the Vortex had now become dark with the loss of her soul.
She appeared in front of Jenny who was doing very well as the commander of a battalion of Time Lords on the front lines. She had managed to use her training to keep every single of them alive and unconverted so far.
The Pythia put on Rose Tyler's accent and impersonated Jenny's mother in order to entrap her.
"Mum, what are you doing here? Do you need my help with something?" Jenny asked innocently.
"Yes, I need you to follow me for a few minutes. There's something I need to show you. Something that will change the outcome of this entire war and end it that much sooner," the Pythia said with a near perfect impersonation of Rose's smile.
Jenny nodded and followed the woman that she thought was her mother for several hundred yards until they were far from the front lines and also far from sight and earshot. They stopped at a running stream, and the Pythia stood staring at it for a moment with her back turned to Jenny and not speaking.
"What did you want to show me, mum?" Jenny finally asked after several minutes of silence had passed. The young Time Lady was totally confused.
The Pythia suddenly turned around and hissed at her with her fangs revealed as she said, "This, my dear!"
Jenny screamed in horror as she now thought that her mother had been changed into a vampire. As the Pythia advanced towards her, she stood there in total disbelief of what she was seeing and unable to move.
"You are to be the first of a new breed of vampires, my dear. You will be the first of the Time Vampires. No one will be able to withstand your power, and you will obey only me!" the Pythia said as she advanced on the frightened young Time Lady.
Suddenly Ileana appeared and stood in front of Jenny protectively.
"I'm afraid you're a little late. There's already been a Temporal Vampire, as I call them, around for a hundred years or so now. Me! I certainly don't want poor Jenny to join me. Trust me, Jen. It's not a club you want to be a member of! She's not your mum, Jenny! Your mum's safe!" Ileana said as she tried to calm the upset young Time Lady.
Jenny looked very relieved at that but still frightened. Ileana couldn't blame her.
"Step aside or I'll rip you apart," The Pythia said to her with a menacing tone in her voice.
"You and what army, dear?! You see, I brought my army here with me. I have this little trick that I can do where I can convert regular vampires into my kind of vampire. I just did that to a whole bunch of yours," Ileana said with a big grin as a large group of vampires with glowing eyes appeared behind the Pythia.
The Pythia looked behind her just in time to be overwhelmed by Ileana's vampire army as they began to try to suck the life force out of her!
Next: Ileana vs. Pythia with Jenny caught in the middle. Meanwhile, Rose and her army get in even deeper trouble. Plus a member of our heroes falls victim to the bite of a vampire! Will they change?
