In the Depths of Hell

by spideyfreak16

A disturbance comes up in Transylvania again. But what Van Helsing finds there isn't a monster. He finds the doorway to hell and maybe a chance to bring Anna back. But Van Helsing isn't the only one retuning to Transylvania... R&R please. Chapter 5 is up.

2. Back in Rome

Chapter 2: Back in Rome

Van Helsing rode his horse up to the big cathedral where the Vatican hid. He dismounted and walked quickly into the church and over to the confessional booth.

"Forgive me father for I have sinned," Van Helsing murmured crossing his chest.

"Yes, yes," said Cardinal Jinette pressing the button that opened the doors to the armory. Van Helsing followed Jinette down to the armory. "Well you don't seem to have Hawley Griffin with you," Jinette sighed

Van Helsing chose not to answer. All he said was, "what's my next mission?"

"Well," Jinette said leading Van Helsing over to their image projector. "We need you to go back to Transylvania."

Van Helsing's eyes darted over to Jinette. "Why?" he asked.

"There have been an unusual amount of monsters showing up there and we need you to do two things. One is to kill them, two is to find out why."

Van Helsing just stared at the map of Transylvania. Neither he nor Carl had told the Cardinal about his and Anna's love. He didn't want to go back, but he knew he must.

"Fine," he murmured.

"I also want you to bring Carl again."

Van Helsing turned and walked over to where Carl was working on something.

"Oh, Van Helsing," Carl said a little surprised. "How'd it go with the Invisible Man?"

Van Helsing's silence answered the question for him.

"You killed him," sighed Carl.

"Yep, but that's beside the point. I'm going back to Transylvania and I'm going to need some weapons."

"I or we," asked Carl hesitantly.

"We, now I need those weapons."

"Follow me," sighed Carl.

Van Helsing followed as Carl stuffed the regular stuff into his bag (holy water, silver bullets, crucifix, a silver stake) and handed him his crossbow, dual pistols, and tojo blades.

"By the way, Van Helsing," Carl said excitedly, "I just came out with a new invention. It's brilliant but risky."

"What is it," asked Van Helsing.

"Well when we were last in Transylvania I was able to extract some werewolf venom from Prince Velkan's dead body."

"Yeah, so?"

"Well... we don't exactly know for sure if Dracula is dead."

"What?"

"Well there have been more there have been more Vampire cases there lately and... well it's just a thought."

"So if he is back we'll be able to turn myself into a werewolf to fight him," Van Helsing exclaimed. "But do you have an antidote."

"Do I have an antidote," Carl repeated offended, "of course I do."

"Good," said Van Helsing walking out the door.

"Hey, wait for me," Carl cried trying to carry all the stuff.
