Chapter 21- Is it over?

Kate's P.O.V-

A scream echoed through the walls of Castle Dracula making me freeze. Suddenly I felt a hand on my neck. Dracula. Then I was thrown through the air and pinned to the wall by a very large bat!!

"Meep!" I squeaked. Caught off guard by the scream.

I pulled back my fist and shouted at the others to go see about the scream.

Libby's P.O.V-

I had caused Van Helsing's death...me!!!

"No. No. No. NO!" I screamed and backed away. I couldn't believe what I had just done!

"Libby, my dear, dear Libby. You have aided Vlad and I in finally giving the taste of mortality to Gabriel." Kyle said.

"NO! It was an accident! I didn't mean it!" I fell to my knees and covered my face in my hands.

"OH MY GOD!! GABREIL!!!" I heard a voice shriek.

I looked up to see Anna and the others rushing in. Anna's face was stricken.

Oh god! I killed him! I killed Anna's true love! Me! I-I-I-I-I-I-I

I broke down into tears. In between my sobs I could hear Anna silently crying.

"Look at you two! Blubbering over a murder that should not have lived! You are all pathetic!" Kyle snarled.

How could I have been so stupid!? Van Helsing! I killed him! It was my fault that he died!!

I heard Kyle's laughter.

"I must go inform Vlad of this." He said and I could hear his footsteps moving away.

I looked up, tears in my eyes and looked at Anna.

"Anna...I am so sorry! I never meant for it to happen. I only tried to get Kyle's sword away from him.... not this. Not in a million years! Anna please forgive, please Princess Anna...please forgive me." I said looking at the gypsy princess. Only silence was my reply, I sunk down and buried my face in my hands.

Kate's P.O.V-

I felt my skull collide with the solid stone of the castle and my vision began swim. I had to fight it off and keep Dracula's attention long enough for the others to get out of harms way. I fought off the approaching blackness and stood up shakily and let out a growl.

"That all you go batty? HUH?! IS IT!!" I yelled before charging and swiping a jagged stone along Dracula's pale face. I then kicked him in the back and found myself flying through the air yet again. I did not know how much longer I could keep this up.

Come one guys!! I can't keep the beast and Dracula at bay forever!!

A fist collided with my stomach causing me to double over in excoriating pain. Then a hand wrapped itself around my neck and I was lifted off the floor and into the air, at the mercy of the vampire prince.

"Vlad I have Gabriel at my mercy!" Said a voice that was joyous, I thought I knew it from somewhere...only it was different. I felt the grip loosen.

"Wonderful!" Dracula said and dropped me.

I hit the stone floor and rubbed my neck then looked up. That voice was...was...was KYLE!!

"YOU TRATOR!!" I screamed, Kyle just laughed.

"Can I have some fun with the beast?" He said.

"You may, but not too long. You will want to torture Gabriel before he dies?" Dracula said.

"Yes." I heard Dracula leave the room.

"What did you do to Van Helsing you little bustard." I spat.

"Stabbed him, with a little help from Libby."

"NO! You lie!"

"I do not. Libby and her bad aim allowed me to ram my blade into that murder's gut."

I felt a growl rise up within my stomach and work it's way up and out my throat. It was low and inhuman, along with that came my anger. I could feel it rise like it never has before. I could not and would not hold it back this time, whatever happened to Kyle afterwards...he deserved it.

"N-no, no, no, no VAN HELISNG YOU KILLED VAN HELSING YOU LITTLE WRETCH!!! I 'LL KILL YOU!!!" My voice grew demonic and low the familiar pain that came with the change now increased a million times, I began to shake and a cold sweat leaked from my pours. "I swear it-on my life!"

"Ah, you are finally succumbing to your inner beast." Kyle voice was but an echo in my mind.

"I don't care-AS LONG AS I KILL YOU!!!!" I yelled and I could feel my true self being push down, deep down and drowned in an icy cold weight.

Libby's P.O.V-

I killed Van Helsing...me...I caused that moment that would have never happened if I had only stayed put!

"WHY? WHY GOD?! WHY???!!!!!" I shouted as loud as I could to get him to hear my plea.

"He can't hear you." An accented voice said from my left. I looked up. It was Dracula. He began to laugh. "How ironic it is that the Left Hand of God is to be struck down by a mere sword. Now...for my revenge." He walked up to Van Helsing, Anna stood up.

"Get away from Gabriel you monster!!" She said, her voice wavering.

"Move women." Dracula knocked her away as if she was nothing.

As he did this Van Helsing began to glow, faintly at first but it steadily grew brighter.

Kate's P.O.V-

I was no longer in my body but watching from outside of it. I had lost the battle for my soul but I didn't care I wanted that whelp Kyle dead. I saw the beast pick him up and squeeze him until even I could here his bones snap and crumble, his screams echoed around us. I actually took pleasure in seeing him in this much pain. The beast then threw him with great force through a wall and into the next room, the beast followed making the hole bigger. What I saw upon entering the room was Van Helsing's body glowing in a white holy light and Dracula shrinking back. Just the sight of that vampire set me off. I picked up Kyle and snapped his neck before charging at him, roaring. But before I could get my hands around his neck something stopped me in my tracks and it felt like I was on fire. The light engulfed everything around me and I could not help but scream, the pain was that bad. But I could also hear Dracula screaming bloody murder. I took comfort in that.

Libby's P.O.V-

I had to close my eyes against the light and cover my ears against the sounds of the screams.

Oh god! Kate is dieing!!!

I could not bear to loose my BBF! The light began to die down to the point where I could open my eyes. The sight that awaited my eyes was interesting for lack of a better word. A giant flaming portal to hell that was lined with the bones of the damned opened and was sucking all that was evil back into its depths. Dracula, now nothing more then a walking skeleton with hair was slowly being sucked back to hell, one bone at a time until he was no longer there. Kate, who looked like she was in terrible pain writhed and shrank back to her true self as the monster fell off her like dust. Then her mouth shot open and her eyes where full of pain and fear, a gray mist was pulled from her mouth and the black was separated from the white and sucked away, the white shot back into her mouth and she fell limp. I scrambled up.

"Its finally over." I breathed but then my eyes settled upon Van Helsing and Kate.

A/N: I am going to be wrapping this story up in the next couple of chapters and that really big thank you section to ALL of my wonderful reveiwers will come along with it .
