AUTHOR'S NOTES: Hello again. Well here it is chapter seventeen the epilouge. I don't have much to say really so enjoy this chapter.
CHAPTER SEVENTEEN: EPILOUGE ONE
It has been six years since Gabriel first came to the Hinata Apartments. During his stay he has done quite a bit including falling in love as well as defeating the Lord of the Vampires himself Dracula, who then revealed to Gabriel that his soul is the same as his ancestor Leon Belmont. He also watched two of his friends namely Keitaro Urashima and Naru Narusegawa get married, not to mention he also attended Tokyo U with his girlfriend or rather should I say fiancee Shinobu Maehara. On this day however the entire Hinata House is being quite loud as they make preperations for the wedding of Gabriel and Shinobu.
"Alright a little more to the right and stop. That's perfect! The banner looks great." says Naru as she gives a thumbs up.
"So what's next on the to do list for the wedding?" asks Keitaro as he climbs down from the ladder.
"Let's see. Motoko is working on the centerpiece for the party after the ceremony, Mutsumi and Kitsune are preparing the food and setting up the dinning area, Su is putting up most of the decorations, and Ema is setting up the reception table. So I think all that's left is to set up the guest's chairs set up for the ceremony tomorrow." says Naru with a smile as she marks off everything from the list.
"Well let's get to it Naru. We'll make this a memorable wedding." says Keitaro.
"I just hope nothing happens like what happened at our wedding." says Naru with a worried look on her face.
"Yeah I remember it like it was yesterday. Everyone thought that Ema and I were aliens. If not for Gabriel getting a hold of Motoko and Kanako I might not have been in shape to get married. Not to mention my accidentaly pulling off your dress." Keitaro says with a small laugh.
"Need you remind me? Just don't do anything like that tomorrow. Ok sweetheart." says Naru as she puts a hand to her forehead.
"Don't worry, nothing will go wrong I promise. Now let's get to work." says Keitaro as the two go outside to finish the preperations for tomorrow.
As for Gabriel and Shinobu the two in question are having some alone time in the hot springs, trying to relax for one of the most important days of their lives. However the young couple aren't having as easy a time of relaxing as they might wish. As the two sit next to each other Gabriel eyes wander to his beautiful fiancee. She has changed alot since he first meet her. Her hair goes down to her waist and, well she has grown in all the right places. She also is also not afraid of much any more and she now has her own restaurant. Gabriel too has changed he has grown his hair out longer and keeps it in a ponytail. He is still a vampire hunter of course, but he also helps out at Shinobu's restaurant as well as being a music teacher at a school nearby.
"Hey Shinobu?" says Gabriel.
"Yes Gabriel. Is something on your mind? You've been staring into space for a while now." says Shinobu as she puts a hand on his shoulder.
"Well it's just...I'm nervous about tomorrow that's all. It'll be the first time you've meet my parents and all. I mean I know they approved of us getting married but I'm a little worried that's all." he says with a sigh.
"Don't worry Gabriel. Nothing will go wrong trust me, and I know I'll get along fine with your parents. If your still worried I can make you forget all about that." she says with a seductive look in her eye just before she kisses him.
"I think that will definately make me forget all of my worries." he says before resumming their kiss and a whole lot more that can't be wrote about in a PG-13 fanfiction. The day passes by with everything being readied for the wedding and the night goes by quietly without any problems.
The next day guests begin to arrive for the wedding one by one. As the guets arrive Ema who is the receptionis for the wedding has them sign in and shows them to where the ceremony will take place. After Tsuruko signs in Ema noticies a couple approach the reception table.
"Excuse us young lady but is this where we sign in." says a tall man with long brown hair in a ponytail much like Gabriel's and blue eyes.
"Y-yes it is sir. May I ask your name?" says Ema a little frightened by the mans imposing aura.
"Dear! Your scaring the poor girl. I'm sorry my husband has that effect on people but he's reall a big soffty. We are the parents of the groom." says an attractive woman with waist length blonde hair and green eyes.
"Oh you're Gabriel's parents? Please sign your names in the book and I'll show you to where everyone else is at." says Ema with a bow.
"My such a well mannered young lady you are. Nicholas sign youre name and lets go I will not miss my sons wedding understood." she says in a demanding tone with a glare in her eyes.
"Of course Kathryn my dear. Right away." says Nicholas with a hint of fear in his voice.
"Wow he seems afraid of his wife. I mean since he is Gabriel's father wouldn't he be really strong. That's just too weird." Ema thinks to herself as she escorts Gabriel's parents to where the others are at.
However just as they leave another guest arrives he is tall has almost white hair is pale and dressed in a black tuxedo and is extremely handsome. One would think he stepped out of a bishonen manga with his looks.
"I guess I will have to wait for the receptionist to return so I can sign in and be seated." he says.
After a few minutes Ema returns and sees another guest waiting at the table. When she gets a good look at him she blushes at how handsome he is. The man notices Ema staring at him and simply cocks an eyebrow.
"Excuse me miss. This is where I sign in correct?" he says which brings Ema back to reality.
"Um yes, yes it is mister..." she says with embarrasment.
"My name is Adrian Fadenheights Tepes." he says as he signs his name in the book.
"Well sir if you would please follow me I'll show you to where everyone else is." she says as he nods and follows her.
While this occured Nicholas and his wife Kathryn have been meeting the residents of the Hinata and getting to know them a little. It is Nicholas who then Notices Ema approaching with another guest that Nicholas knows all to well.
"Alucard! Glad you could make it. I was begining to think you wouldn't show up." Nicholas says.
"Well you did ask me if I would attend. It would be rude not to do so. Plus I would like to meet your son, the one who defeated my father this time." says Alucard.
"Defeated your father? You don't mean your Alucard the son of Dracula that Gabriel has spoken of?" asks a suprised Ema.
"Yes I am. It's not a problem is it?" Alucard says.
"No. But that would make you...Oh dear." says Ema as she faints.
"Did I say something wrong?" asks Alucard.
"You sure do have a way with women don't you Alucard?" says Nicholas with a smirk on his face just before he is smacked upside his head by his wife.
"No jokes now is that understood dear. We should make sure she is alright." say Kathryn.
"I'm sorry you're right." says Nicholas in an apologetic tone.
As the three see to Ema a pair of people walk up behind them curious as to what the problem is. The couple in fact is Gabriel and Shinobu.
"Ok what's the problem here." says Gabriel as the his Parents and Alucard turn around to see who is speaking to them.
"Oh son good to see you. Well you see we were helping this young lady here. She fainted after Alucard here told her he was the son of Dracula." says Nicholas.
"Well that is understandable. I dont think Ema ever really believed me when I told her about our family. Don't worry though she'll be ok in a bit let's just sit her in a chair and let her rest." says Gabriel as he picks Ema up un sits her in a chair before he returns to speak with his parents and Alucard.
"So Gabriel you are going to introduce us to the woman you will be marrying, won't you." says Kathryn.
"Of course mother. I would like you all to meet Shinobu Maehara. Soon to be my wife." Gabriel says.
"I am pleased to finally meet you both Mr. and Mrs. Belmont. Gabriel has told me alot about you." says Shinobu as she bows to Gabriel's paretns.
"There is no need to bow to us. Gabriel has told us quite a bit about you as well, and we are glad that our son has fallen in love with someone like you." says Kathryn.
"That's right in a short while you'll be part of the family and we couldn't ask for a better daughter in-law than you." says Nicholas with a smile on his face.
"Thank you very much." says Shinobu.
"Well it seems that she will make a fine wife Gabriel. Congratulations on defeating my father as well." says Alucard as he extends his hand to shake Gabriel's.
"Thank you Alucard I feel honored to recieve such a complement from you." says Gabriel.
"Think nothing of it. It is simply the truth." says Alucard.
"Well the ceremony will begin in about thirty minutes. So let's mingle with the others till then ok." says Gabriel.
So they all go to talk with the others of things past as well as the future that lies ahead. Before to long the ceremony begins. Presiding over the ceremonies is none other than Seta. The ceremony goes off with out any problems and the young couple are soon joined together in holy matrimony. When they kiss the gathered people can't help but be happy for them.
"My little boy is all grown up now. I'm so happy." says Kathryn as she cries.
"I know how you feel dear, but think of it this way before to long we'll be grandparents." says Nicholas.
"I hope you two are very happy together." thinks Motoko to herself as a tear falls down her face.
"This sure does bring back memories doesn't it Naru?" says Keitaro.
"Yes it does, and I know they will be as happy as us Keitaro." says Naru as she rests her head on Keitaro's shoulder.
After the ceremony ends Shinobu tosses her bouquet in to the crowd of women. The lucky lady to catch the bouguet is none other than Motoko. After she is congradulated the reception party begins and everyone there has one hell of a time to. When the party is over Gabriela and Shinobu say goodbye as the leave for their honeymoon.
"Take care everyone well see you soon." says Shinobu as Gabriel places an arm around her.
"Don't blow up the Hinata while were gone ok Su." says Gabriel with a laugh.
"Don't worry about us you two just make sure to have a good time." says Su as she hugs the two newlyweds.
"Yeah we want you two to spend lots of quality time together." says Kitsune with a wink.
Everyone laughs at Kitsunes comment and they say there final farewells as Gabriel and Shinobu leave in Keitaro's van that he let them borrow for their honeymoon. Don't worry though Gabriel is a much safer driver than either Seta or Keitaro. And they lived happily ever after.

"We would like to wish all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year." the say in unison.
"For next year I will crush you all and plunge the world into darkness! Hahahahah!" says Dracula beforehe is struck a few times with the Vampire Killer.
"Stupid Vampire! I told you to behave yourself didn't I!?" says Gabriel with a scowl forming across his face.
"Come on master I don't feel like having my ass handed to me again twice in one year by a Belmont, and I don't think you do either." says Death.
"Fine! Let's go Death. Stupid Belmont and that stupid whip!" says Dracula as he and Death return to Castlevania.
"They never learn. Well see you all next time." says Gabriel as he waves goodbye.
