Chapter 11: The power regained.
Miles stood in front of Harven.
"And how do you propose we find the Princess?" the doctor asked. Harven laughed and turned to Frankenstein's stretcher. It was reaching the highest turret.
"I have a feeling that the Adriatic Sea is where we need to look!" the vampire replied. Miles scratched his head.
"The Adriatic Sea?" he asked.
"Yes, that is where Gabriel burnt her and that is where she is buried!" Harven told Miles. The vampire spread his wings and flew up to the turret. Outside, thunder rumbled and lightning shot from the clouds. The creature upon the stretcher yelled as a bolt hit him in the chest. When Harven turned to go back into the castle, a bolt of lighting struck him and he fell down the opening to the castle. His wings disappeared and he was struck upon the stone floor. Miles walked over to him. Harven's eyes were closed. The lighting made his body writhe like he was being electrocuted. When the doctor went to touch the large, outspread wings, Harven's eyes darted open. He flew at the doctor, clawed hand outspread. The claw clutched around the doctor's neck, and he yelled. Another bolt of lightning soared down into the room and hit the vampire. Miles flew back against the farthest wall, making bricks shatter and fall to the ground. The lighting made Harven release a loud yell. His canines suddenly turned larger, eyes glowing brick red. His hair began to reach down his back, and skin started to turn a dark brown. The electricity was choking him as a Hellbeast took him over. Harven's arms flew open and the claws became larger and larger. Instead of a lonely vampire, a demon beast spread its wings and flew from the castle.
Alvonia pointed to Frankenstein. She flew the two up to the turret.
"Okay, when I drop you, stay still, I will free the creature!" Alvonia yelled down. They nodded their heads as they dropped to the stone ground. Frankenstein yelled as more lightning struck him. Alvonia flew over and placed her hand around the first strap that held him down. The creature yelled louder and thunder rumbled in the sky.
"I am helping you!" the shape shifter yelled.
"Help me! Before Harven..." Frankenstein broke off. More lightning hit him and he yelled. Carl had sat down on the edge of the turret when a large gust of wind hit his back. Van Helsing had felt it too. They both turned to see wind fluttering leaves in the air. Carl gasped as three werewolves ran out of the forest, chomping their jaws. Gabriel turned and saw them too. He pulled his pistols out.
"One, two, three" Van Helsing said. He shot one of them. It whined and fell to the ground. The other two growled and jumped up into the air. Van Helsing shot again, but missed. When the monster hunter aimed to shoot once more, he was stopped by a large figure. The Hellbeast soared through the air, growling. Van Helsing yelled and pulled a silver stake out of the weapon bag. He threw the weapon at the Hellbeast and it went straight through its heart. Harven transformed back and landed on the turret. Carl staggered backward. The vampire pulled the stake from his heart and threw it to the ground.
"Do you honestly think that such a thing as a silver stake can kill I, Count Harven?" the vampire asked his enemy. Van Helsing readied his gun and shot straight at Harven's head. He ducked as it hit the lunging werewolf behind him. The creature growled and fell forward, landing on the ground. Harven smiled as Gabriel shot him also.
Meanwhile, Alvonia had taken the straps from Frankenstein. Now, the creature stood, watching Harven and Van Helsing battling. He pointed to them, and the shape shifter turned to see the vampire drawing his canines and transforming into the Hellbeast. Alvonia quickly shifted to a Banshee and flew at Harven. He bared his teeth and bit at Alvonia. She screamed and hit him across the head. Carl moved away and stood next to Frankenstein. Van Helsing had looked down the turret and saw a wolf climbing the castle wall. He shot, but it bounced off of the creature's fur. Gabriel shot again and it went through its skin. The wolf lunged at Van Helsing. The monster hunter turned and it flew through the air. The monster now bit Harven in the back. Alvonia's wings were hitting the Hellbeast when he changed back to human form and fell to the stone floor. The shape shifter changed back and sighed. The werewolf now stare at her. She smiled and waved her finger. Wings spread, Alvonia flew at it, flaying her hands. It growled and flew at her. It stopped right as Gabriel shot it with the stunning weapon. Alvonia smiled and changed back to human form, smiling at each of them. They all looked down to see Harven disappearing. The wind was carrying away his ashes.
"That was not the last we have seen of Harven." Alvonia stated, looking at Gabriel, then Carl, and at last, Frankenstein.
"Thank you so much" Frankenstein exclaimed. She nodded. Carl yelled as a large bolt of lightning soared down and hit the turret. The stone started to fall everywhere and the brick under their feet were disintegrating. Alvonia transformed into a Banshee again and picked them all up. The clouds had opened and rain was poring out. They flew through the clouds and off. The rain kept poring harder.
"Where to now?" Carl asked Van Helsing. He smiled.
"The Adriatic Sea"
I'm sorry if that chapter lacked in plot...more to come!
