Chapter 17- Capture.
Arsitoph's P.O.V-
I arrived at my destination a half an hour later. Apparently some of the villagers thought they could harm me. Pathetic fools. I looked up at the door to the Valerious Manor and took my normal form. I knocked on the door and stood, as if this was merely a social call. A young servant answered the door, she looked up and her face froze in horror. Casually reaching out I pinched a nerve in her neck and down she went. I crept into the home and followed the scent of the boy.
Last time I nearly killed him. He should not prove that much of a problem.
I was up the stairs and outside of a room. I sniffed the air and caught Kyle and Van Helsing's scent right behind the door.
Kyle's P.O.V-
Van Helsing suddenly sat up and motioned for me to be very quite. He eased over to his bedside and grabbed his crossbow. I looked at him as if to say evil? He nodded his head and tossed me a pistol. We turned toward the door and I listened. I could hear a deep breathing that was Van Helsing's and something outside of the door. I flicked my eyes to the bottom of the door and saw a shadow where light should have shown. I moved my pistol to the door and waited.
Arsitoph's P.O.V-
I heard them moving and they got unusually quite.
They must know I am here...no matter.
I grabbed a hold of the doorknob and wrenched the door open, I felt it collide with a solid object and I heard a pistol go off. I felt the bullet burry itself in my shoulder. I looked down at it and dug it out and flicked it with great force at the boy. It hit the wall about an inch from his head. He remained cool.
"I thought Libby and Anna killed you. Animal." Kyle said with a smirk on his face.
"I can't die. Boy." I spat back.
I jumped at him and he dove to the side and scurried out of the door. I bounded out of the door and followed him. Anna skidded in front of us. Kyle flew by her and I grabbed her pistol and dragged her along for a few feet before letting go.
Why couldn't I just fling her aside?!
Another group of children came flying around the corner. The girl was one of them. I shot out my hand and brought them all down like timber and pulled the girl along by her shirt. Kyle whipped around at a window, he raised his pistol and pointed it at my head. I raised Kate up in front of my face and smirked.
"Oh hell"
I pounced on the boy and all three of us went through the window and down onto the hard ground below. Glass flew around us and sliced into my skin. I heard Van Helsing's yell. I landed effortlessly on the ground heard the two dull thuds of Kyle and Kate crashing into the ground. I moved to pick them up when a foot connected with my jaw, knocking me back.
"Get away from me and Kyle you freak!" Kate yelled.
I glared at her.
"You stupid beast. You have no place to touch me!" I replied
"Don't piss me off."
"Scared of yourself?!" I let out a laugh and tossed a punch at her. To my amazement she caught it!
"What in the seven levels of hell?!"
She looked as if she was fighting two battles, one with the beast and one with me.
"I will NOT let it control me! I am NOT afraid!!"
She planted her feet and whipped me away.
Kate's P.O.V-
I felt the beast in me rise up when I threw Arsitoph but I capped it and I was truly fighting two battles.
"Kate! Calm down!! I'll handle this!" I heard Van Helsing yell.
"Back off Helsing! I got it."
"But." I cut him off.
"I said BACK OFF!!!" I whirled around as I said this and my voice took on a deep beastly tone and my eyes flashed red. Van Helsing backed off, stunned.
I turned around only to be kicked in the face by Arsitoph, he was smirking.
"Lucky shot. I will not let some beast defeat me!!" He bellowed and picked me up by my neck, I wrestled with the beast, to keep it safely locked inside but use it.
I said something that made Anna yell.
"WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE!!!"
"Such foul language for a child."
My fist collided with Arsitoph's jaw and his head twisted around and his jaw stuck out at a funny angle.
"I'M A TEEN GOD DAMN IT!!!!"
I pounced on the monster and began to pound furiously at him. He turned into mist and picked me up by the back of my neck.
"Your just a scared little girl. You can't fight." He whispered in my ear. That's when I snapped. The only thing I couldn't stand more then being called a child was being looked down on because I was a girl.
"AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!"
I let out an earth-shaking roar and I felt my skin split open and the beast come out, I fought for my mind. I won it.
I picked him up by his neck and squeezed with one hand and twisted with the other hand. He let out several screams of pain before bursting into mist and forming into another beast.
"I'm a woman!" I spat and slammed my fist into his stomach and extended my claws, they burst through his back making him cry out yet again. "I can do all kinds of things."
I dropped him and I brought my foot down on him and he turned into water and slithered back into the form of a beast with a smirk on his face.
"Your pathetic. I can tell that you're fighting to keep control of your pitiful mind. You will soon give in. I can sense you are tiring. It's so easy to give in...just do it."
"Go to hell" I pinned him to a wall and crushed his windpipe.
He began gasping for air and coughing, before he healed.
She is strong!! Perhaps too strong...I need to get out of here!
I saw him turn and dash for Kyle, he took the form of a giant falcon that looked slightly human. He scooped Kyle up and took off. I dived for them both but only succeeded in getting glass jammed into my arms and legs. I let out an angry roar and suddenly I felt very light headed. I could feel the true me sinking to the bottom of my tainted soul and that beast rising up, like bile in my throat.
NO! I must fight it! BACK OFF YOU BLOODY THING YOU!!!!
I felt my vision growing dark and clouded. I heard someone drop onto the ground and run up next to me.
NO! NO! NO! NO!!! I will not let you w-wi-win!
I dropped to my knees as I felt my skin reform and I knew I was winning, I just had to think calm thoughts.
Beach. I'm at a beach. The wind is playing a crossed my face and the ocean's smell is mixed with hotdogs and it is mingling in my nose. It is sooo warm and comforting lying in the sand...
Darkness consumed me. I was starting to dislike all these passing out spells.
A/N: I got "I'm a women. I can do lots of things." From league of extraordinary gentlemen.
