LXG: The vanquisher of evil.

The League was walking through the woods, trying to get to the small Transylvanian village. The League had arrived in Transylvania that morning and was following Mina's directions to Dracula's castle. On several occasion they had had the feeling that they were being followed. But everyone except Helen, who continued to stay vigilant, quickly dismissed these feelings.
'We've been walking for hours, don't we get a break?' Skinner was, of course, the first to break the long silence.
'Skinner, if we keep taking breaks we won't get anywhere.' said Mina.
'What do you mean keep taking? We haven't had one yet.'
'Stop whining Skinner,' said Helen.
'Perhaps Miss. Hardings could take a look over the top and see how far we are from the village?' said Nemo.
'Good idea.'
'There's a gap in the branches just there.' Jekyll pointed upwards and Helen moved behind Sawyer to get a better view. When she saw it she sprouted her wings, getting ready to take flight. She then heard a noise, a voice.
'Look out!'
A spinning, razor sharp piece of metal flew through the air towards Helen and she flew upwards to dodge it. As she landed, a man in a long, black coat ran at her. It seemed he was not warning her about the spinning disc, but warning Sawyer of Helen. Helen flew upwards once more and kicked the man in the back as he ran past. He crashed in to a tree. Once Helen landed once more, Sawyer ran in front of her to prevent the man from attacking again. The man turned around.
'What are doing? She's a vampire!'
'She's no Vampire!' shouted Sawyer. Helen folded her arms, slightly offended that anyone would think she needed protecting. The man pulled his hat up from his eyes, revealing the confusion in them.
'No but I am.' Mina walked in front of the man.
'Mina? Is that you?'
'Can someone please tell me what's going on.' said Skinner.
'Yes, Mina, can you tell us who this man is?' said Helen as she pushed past Sawyer.
'Everyone, this is Mr. Van Helsing. We met a long time ago.'
'Pleased to meet you, but can I ask one thing? Is she's not a vampire then what is she?'
'She's the dragon lady.' said Skinner.
'Can we ask you something?' said Jekyll, 'have you been following us?'
'Now that's a good question.' said Helen, wanting to see Van Helsing in any kind of trouble.
'No I haven't. I only noticed you a few minutes ago. You must have heard the werewolf.'
'Werewolf?' said Nemo.
'Yes, he's the reason why I'm here.'
'I see,' said Helen, 'you're here to kill him. Have you ever thought that he might actually be a good person, that's unlucky enough to become a wolf every full moon? Look at Mina and I, just because we might seem frightening, doesn't mean that we're not good. Look at Skinner, just because he's invisible, it doesn't mean that he'll use it for bad...well maybe that's a bad example.'
'Is this because I tried to kill you?'
'Funny isn't it? How someone can get tetchy over a little thing like that.' Helen gave him an evil stare and he looked quite bewildered.
'Maybe we should keep going, we must be near the village by now.' said Sawyer. He shouldered his gun and began moving and the others followed. Van Helsing began to walk next to Nemo, someone, he felt, which would give him a straight answer.
'So what are you all doing here then?'
'We are here to stop someone who has taken certain possessions from us.'
'What possessions?'
'Our powers,' answered Jekyll. 'He has taken Mina's vampiric abilities and Skinner's invisibility.'
'I've had some experience in killing vampires; I could help you if you like. That is, if your friend would cooperate.' Helen suddenly turned on him again.
'I would cooperate, Mr Helsing, if it was for a good cause.'
After being told everything about Farling, Van Helsing left them, saying that he would help in anyway that he could. He told them that there was a very effective way of killing vampires. He said that if he could come up with a way to make it work, then he would return with the best weapon against anything vampiric. Even after being told, he didn't quite get the idea that there were more things than vampire abilities on Farling's side.
Once in the village, they found an old inn where they would spend the night. The next day they would go to Dracula's castle and stop Farling by any means necessary.
