Hello and to a sort of soft reboot of an old story I removed a few years ago and here it is refreshed.

New York 1890

A large boat docked at the harbor as a body with a wooden steak fell into the water as the plank dropped as a man walked off the boat holding a crossbow. "God the second I left England they try to kill me." He said to himself as he left the port and walked inside a hotel as the receptionist looked and starred at him. "Room for two." the woman simply checked the book she had as she shivered and gave him a key as he walked up and opened the door to the room to find a woman in bed laying down. "I was wondering when you'd arrive no trouble?" "A few stragglers but they were runts." He then took off his coat as the woman removed her dress as they started kissing and making out.

New York present day

"Helsing!" Venessa Van Helsing was startled as she woke up and shouted "Yes?" as her fellow classmates laughed at her while Venessa groaned as the bell rang as it was lunch as she got up and walked to the cafeteria with her only friend Mina Harker as they held hands so mina wouldn't slip and fall passing the crowd of students as many of them would commonly mistake them for being a couple as they sat down next to Masilda Talbot a young gypsy who's mother Maleva ran a fortune telling shop who sat next to them as she would practice Palmistry and made a bit of money from it from students. "So are you royalty?" Masilda asked Venessa as she was always asked this question due to her long last name. "Don't know and frankly I wouldn't care about it." "Why?" Mina asked as Vanessa simply continued eating her hamburger and potato skins while Masilda began chewing on hers fast getting ketchup on her shirt and face as Mina gagged a bit when she was then slammed into her tray by high popular cheerleader Lucy Westenra and her three friends as Masilda growled at them and stood up starring at her. "You punch me and your looking at a week's detention." Lucy told her despite Masilda being six foot five with a strong build being the only girl in the school's wrestling team as Masilda simply grunted before sitting back down at her table while Venessa was wiping Mina's face. "God i wish that bloody bitch could just go to hell." Venessa said with her deep English accent having come from an English family while Mina was half English half Romanian.

"So we're a few months from graduation and prom so... any plans for the future?" "Well if being a writer doesn't work out then maybe a teacher and Masilda is totally going to be a bodyguards or something like that." "Actually i was thinking more of a bodybuilding model." "Well you are very uh... bulky? no offence." "None taken what about you Venessa?"

Venessa tried to find the right words to say about her family bloodline of monster hunters from vampires to werewolves and a few mummy curses but to say that to them would make it sound like she was insane as she simply said "Accounting?" Mina squirted milk out of her nose as she laughed. "Really out of anything you chose that?" "Yeah." "Whatever." Masilda then stood up and left and soon when it school was over Venessa walked out and entered her family apartment as she greeted her grandmother who was from her mother's side of the family with many hunters in the Helsing bloodline were always male but she was the first woman to take up her family name while she looked at a photo of her parents.

"Hi mum, dad I'm almost going to be an adult soon and... god fucking shit... sorry about the swearing about the lord but I miss you and I know that you'd say that I was young and it wasn't my fault but every night i can barley sleep without hearing your sc... I'm talking too much."

She walked to her room which she made into a small work station/study room where all her family diary's and journals were kept as she grabbed the oldest one as she blew the dust off it as she opened and read it. "Let's see ghouls, witches, magic, werewolves, ahh here it is Vampires." She then read the almost two hour writings before putting it in her satchel as she then grabbed a short crossbow along with a sling full of wooden steaks and silver pointed crossbow bolts before loading silver tipped bullets into two twin Smith & Wesson Model 500's. "How did father even carry these?" She thought as she placed them in their holsters as she then walked out putting on a black coat and a large black Stetson hat as she kissed her sleeping grandmother before walking into the night.

New York was mostly dark at night as about six shadows appeared at a graveyard where they then held hands near a grave and began chanting as one of them asked "Uh is this right?" "Oh shut up you bitch." "Excuse me." The six blood suckers then saw Venessa standing a few feet from them. "I'm afraid the place is closed and also how rude bringing the dead back and make them feast on blood." "Get the stupid cun.." BLAM! Soon the head vampire's face had a large hole in it as Venessa then pulled out the other revolver and quickly fired at the rest of the vampires who charged at them as they were riddled with large bullet hole as the one and only female in the group made a run for it as she was shot in the leg as she screamed in pain and was now crawling away. "No please I have a..." She then felt the hot gun barrel in her mouth as Venessa looked at her. "Linda right?" The vampire nodded "Born in the early 20's and bitten in the late 50's am i right?" "Yes... Van helsing..." Linda said as venessa lifted her up and handed her a vial of blood. "A positive i suggest you save it." Linda simply nodded before vanishing in a cluster of bats. Vennesa shook her head as the sound of banging caught her attention as she stood by a grave as an undead walked out as Venessa quickly shot it. "Sorry for disturbing you." She said as she kicked it back into it's coffin and walked out of the cemetery as a wolf's howl was heard all around.

First chapter complete hope you enjoyed it.
