A/N: Hey sorry about the cliffhanger last chapter. Oh, there is just one
more chapter after this. Then, I'm sorry to say I've come to the end.
I've really loved your reviews, thank you sooo much!!
Dracula was savoring the fear from Gabriel, and he was glad to know that for once he would be the one doing the killing instead of the one being killed. He never knew triumph could be so glorious because he had never been allowed to triumph before. Gabriel always stopped him before he could succeed at anything, but Gabriel would finally pay. That made Dracula very pleased, and he bit down into Gabriel's neck and felt Gabriel's neck muscles tense up. 'It will only hurt more that way, Gabriel,' he thought.
Gabriel would have cried out for help had he been able to speak, but Dracula had a grip on Gabriel's throat to prevent him from speaking. Gabriel saw all the memories of his past life flash before his eyes, and he finally saw the order they were suppose to go in. Gabriel wished that had gotten to spend more time with Anna and thanked Carl for his help, but that was not going to happen.
Dracula didn't hear Anna step a few feet in front of the plexiglass room holding the crossbow that was once Gabriel's. She had found it with Michelle's help; it had been in Cameron's personal locker, which Michelle had gotten the key for. No one noticed because they had a big trauma in the E.R. to deal with. Anna stood steady on the ground and aimed the crossbow, and she wasted no time in firing. The crossbow's force threw her back a few steps, but that didn't affect the arrow that had been shot from the crossbow.
The plexiglass was not made to withstand weapons made in the late 1800s, so the arrow pierced the plexiglass with ease. It flew threw the air at light speed towards Dracula, who was still ignorant to the arrow. Anna pleaded that the arrow would be accurate, and she squinted as she watched it fly. 'Come on,' she thought.
Dracula was enjoying the bittersweet taste of Gabriel's blood, but he felt when the arrow pierced his back. He released Gabriel, who slid down to the floor, and backed away. Gabriel saw the arrow sticking out of his back and then Anna holding the crossbow. 'Thank you, Anna.' Gabriel thought as he put his hand to his neck. Dracula turned around and saw Anna standing there with a smirk on her face, and he started to go after her.
There was a problem, and Dracula couldn't move any farther. Blood began to run out of his mouth, and he glanced over at Gabriel, who had rose up off of the floor. Dracula staggered back and slurred a curse word as he reached his arm around and pulled out the arrow. There was a darkness that overthrew Dracula's sight, and he fell to his knees. Gabriel walked over and watched Dracula writh as his body died once again. Gabriel was glad that Dracula hadn't transformed into his powerful former self. The arrow from the crossbow couldn't have had such effects on Dracula had he been as powerful as Gabriel had remembered him.
Dracula gasped for a moment then collapsed on the floor. His mouth was open wide in a silent scream as his eyes stared up at Gabriel. Gabriel watched as the enemy he'd faced slipped away to death for the third time, and he felt a shiver travel down his spine. He looked up at Anna and saw her toss the crossbow down. She ran into the room and pulled Gabriel into a kiss first thing. Her kiss was passionate, and Gabriel was glad she felt the same joy for him being alive to be with her that he had.
Gabriel set his forehead against Anna's and told her, "Thank you."
She caressed his cheek and replied, "I had to. I couldn't watch you die when I had a chance to save you, and us."
Gabriel felt a rush of emotions, and he leaned down and kissed Anna hard. "I love you," he told her.
Anna kissed his lips softly. "I love you, Gabriel."
Gabriel and Anna heard distressed screams from the hallway, and they ran from the interview room. They found Michelle hovering over Cameron, who was bleeding steadily from the wound in his chest. The scalpel had been removed by Cameron when he couldn't take the pain of it any longer, but he was in a lot of pain. Michelle was worried about Cameron's condition when the bleeding persisted, so she paged the E.R. to come get Cameron.
As the E.R. doctors came up, Cameron grabbed Michelle's wrist. "Will you call my apartment and tell Jessica how I am?" Michelle nodded. Cameron told her, "The number is 555-1031."
Michelle went to the telephone on the psychiatric ward and dialed Cameron's apartment phone number. It was only a few rings before Jessica picked the phone up. "Hello," she answered.
"Hello, is this Jessica?" Michelle asked just to be sure.
"Yes, who is this?"
"Dr. Englehart from Mariana Hospital, and Cameron asked me to call you. He's in E.R. righ at the moment, but he asked me to brief you on what is happening. He was stabbed by a crazed doctor--"
"Dr. Dragulia." Jessica stated.
"Yes. I forgot you know about his past." Michelle stated scratching her head, once again a habit.
"I didn't know he told anyone else. How is Gabriel?"
"He is well, and Dracula is once again dead. Anna helped with that."
There was sigh of relief. "That's good," she replied. "I'm glad Anna is there with Gabriel."
"But, Cameron may be hurt pretty badly if you want to come down and check on him." Michelle informed.
"I think I will come do that. I'd like to see how he is. Thank you." Jessica told her.
"You're welcome." Michelle heard Jessica hang the phone up, and she did the same.
Michelle leaned up against the wall and let out a sigh. She slid to the floor and rubbed her eyes. 'What a stressful day,' she thought.
