Heya I am back again! I got a few reviews this time round, one with a lot of criticism in it, I don't mind criticism, but just bear in mind that this is what is going on in my mad head. This is the way I want the story to be, and thanks to the author of 'Song of the Siren' and 'Chorus of the dark Revelation' she has told me to mention that because I have been moaned at for using a Celine Dion song in a time when pop music didn't exist, that really vampires and werewolves and other monsters mentioned in the film don't exist either. That's why they call it fan FICTION. Anyways, here we go again with Chapter 10!

Gabriel had left his home at around midday, and he had been creeping around Dracula's castle for the better part of three hours, meaning that in these winter months it wasn't long before the dark lord himself joined him. It was becoming hard to keep hiding from Dracula's servants, especially as it seemed that the closer it came to Dracula's waking time, the more of them there seemed to be around. They weren't even doing anything important in his eyes, just wandering around talking in that strange language of there's that he still didn't understand.

He was now searching a part of the castle that was less well kept as the plush rooms he had checked earlier, to no avail. It was becoming darker, the only light in this darkened area coming from the lit brackets on the walls carrying the torches. The stone walls were jammed with bits of rotting wood where they had broken and left holes for the cold to breeze in. He looked in through a door that led to a small square room that had nothing but a pile of wood in the corner. He frowned in disbelief at the abandoned manacles on the wall, indicating this was some sort of torture chamber.

Please, God. He prayed desperately, let her be all right, don't let her die. He forced himself to keep walking, intending to keep his promise to both Anna and Megan of bringing Anna back home where she belonged. He remembered dancing with her at the ball on the evening of her kidnap. She had looked so beautiful, in her silk dress, as she was held close in his embrace, the pair of them twirling around the ballroom to their daughters sweet voice. I didn't even get to spend the night of our anniversary with her he thought in dismay. He was fuelled once more by anger, Dracula always had to spoil everything good in his life.

He found himself stopping to look in a room that he had almost missed. It was one with no door, just a huge iron gate covering the entrance. It was a large chamber with an open window frame that was letting in a chilled wind that he could feel from over thirty feet away. There was a light dusting of snow all around the room save for a single space against the wall where there was a figure laying face down in the snow with a thin rag around their shoulders, which had slipped off and was half on the floor.

His eyes widened in shock, fear and anger as he recognised the dark curls radiating from the woman's body, though he could not see her face. His rested on one of her limp hands which was strewn carelessly away from the rest of her body. The setting sun at the window made a one of the last rays of sunshine at her level hit a small bad of gold around her finger, and a bracelet made of gold and rubies. A combination of jewellery that he recognised more than the hair. "No…" He whispered in utter pain. "Anna!" He whispered loudly, she didn't respond. "Anna!" He called louder this time.

His eyes began to water, as she didn't move at all. She lay there like she was in a dream, or a coma. He remembered back to years ago when Dracula had had her under his spell, and began to pray that she wasn't under it again. Hold on Anna, he urged. I came back that time for you, I'm coming this time as well.

Anna gulped in fear, but pushed it aside quickly. "Do not worry father. Gabriel will find my body, he will not let me die." She said confidently, her eyes filling with tears all the while. "He will come for me."

Boris chuckled lightly, "Ah yes, I have been watching you with him, he saved you the last time as well, he has been very good to you. Me, your mother and Velkan watched you defeat Dracula the first time with him, and we watched how heartbroken you both were when he left. We could see how much you love each other."

Anna smiled, her tears falling freely down her face. "Thank you." She whispered.

"My dear, whatever for?" He asked casually, as all talk of death was forgotten.

"Your blessing." She stated simply. It didn't matter to her that his blessing was coming eight years after their marriage, it just overjoyed her that even in heaven, he was watching them, giving them his blessings everyday in everything that they did.

"I could not give you anything else." He said, hugging his daughter once more. "Now, what of my granddaughter, how is she?" He asked, changing the subject only slightly.

"You know?" Anna asked, her eyebrows knitting together in confusion.

"My darling, I check up on my daughter every day, I think I would have noticed if she had her own child." He laughed again. "She is everything like you were at that age, loving, loyal, and most of all, she definitely gets her curiosity from her mother." He joked, remembering well how daring Anna was in her younger years, only calming down but a little to take care of her own daughter.

"She is amazing, Daddy, I wish you could meet her for real. She loves the stories of her grandparents and uncle, she wishes you would come back to us." Anna smiled at the innocence of Megan, not knowing that once you were in heaven, you were pretty much stuck there. "She has a picture of us when I was an infant beside the one of me her and Gabriel, she keeps them above her bed. She calls you all angels."

"And in a way, she is right." Boris said with ease.

Gabriel tried for ages to get Anna to wake up, but it was useless. She was under his spell once again. He was startled by a loud screeching sound, signalling Dracula's awakening. He hid in the shadows across from the door, waiting for Dracula to open the door, he would then slip in, hide in the shadows, and get Anna out of there. As footsteps approached, he braced himself.
