Chapter 3-

A/N: I am SOOOOOOO SORRY! For the delay, I was over at a friends house over the weekend and my summer reading list slipped my mind.... erm Embarrassed so without farther ado here is chapter three!!

Kate's Home-

Kevin flopped down on a beanie chair and wondered what was taking Kate so long to get back from Helsing's time. He opened his soda just as James walked into the room with his head buried in his History book.

"Carl, there's a wall there." Kevin said upon seeing that his friend was about to walk head long into the living room wall. Alice and Libby stuck their heads into the living room.

"Kate's back?" They said at the same time.

"No." Kevin said. At that moment James walked into the wall and fell back on his butt with a thud. The girls both sputtered with laughter and Kevin just rolled his eyes.

"Hey! Who moved the wall??" He said, at that point everyone was laughing insanely. James picked himself up and brushed away the non-existent dust before picking up his History book.

"I swear you're as bad as Carl." Libby said in between laughs.

"Shut-it Lib." James said leaning against the wall and flipping through the book again.

"Are you lookin for a mention of Van Helsing or Dracula or something??" Kevin said taking a sip of his soda.

"Oh yes that is EXACTLY what I am doing." James said sarcastically.

Kate's P.O.V-

I shot off a few arrows into one of the werewolf's back as I fell. I landed squat and rushed over to Helsing, who was currently trying to keep a rather large wolf from biting his head off! I put two fingers in my mouth and whistled.

"Hey! Dung for brains over here!!" I shouted and grazed the wolf's back with an arrow, the silver burnt the pure black animal's flesh and sent it into a roaring pissed off frenzy of anger all directed at me.

I missed!!

I then turned ran for my life as the crazed animal crushed everything in its path to get to me. At least the biggest of them was away from Anna and Helsing...but why did I have to miss? I ran like my bum was on fire, towards the rather large drop off. As I drew closer I realized with a jolt that this was the same place Valken had given his humanity to save his sister.

Oh please let this work!

I took in a deep breath and summoned up all of the courage I had within me and just as the werewolf was about to hit me I dropped off to the side a bit and fell, right off the cliff. Everything from that point on seemed to move in slow motion. I heard a gunshot and the werewolf went limp in midair and I saw it shrink into the form of a young boy and I winced inwardly at the thought at what I was about to kill. I saw Van Helsing rush to the edge, horror on his face; I saw that he saw me and I smiled. I reached into my coat and pulled out something I had slipped into my jacket before I left the Amory, a grappler. I shot it, I saw the sharp point and the wisps of smoke and I heard it eject and then shortly later I saw and heard it embed itself into the rock. I felt the forceful tug as the line was pulled taught and I was pulled up with it. I felt the air whip past my hair and the limp body of the young boy fell past me but I swear I heard a 'thank you' as we pasted, but maybe it was just my imagination. Suddenly everything seemed to speed up once again and I was roughly pulled up onto solid ground by a very shaken monster hunter and gypsy princess, Helsing looked at me sternly, but his eyes gave away his true worry and Anna looked rather pale, while trying to look stern.

"What did you think you where doing?! You could have been bitten!!" Van Helsing said, lowering me to the ground.

"Hunting." I simply replied and walked over to fetch my hat that had been turned into a pancake thanks to the werewolf.

"It looked like it was the other way around." Anna said sternly, though the worry showed on her face.

I picked up my hat and proceeded to try and fix it.

"It wasn't, trust me." I said, frowning at my hat as it was quite lumpy now.

"At least you weren't bitten when you got knocked over." Helsing said walking over to me and taking my hat and fixing it with a fine tuned skill.

"It didn't knock me over I dropped down off the cliff, I planed to use the grappler and hang around while I sniped out wolfie...but now I'm glad I didn't because I probably would have let go considering how young the kid was...." I put my hat back on my head and shuttered at the sight again. I remained like that for several minuets but suddenly a manic smile crept onto my face and I whipped around and dove at Helsing, knocking to the ground, in surprise.

"I shall defeat you Gabriel!!!" I yelled in my best Dracula voice, which was very realistic.

"I thought I defeated you?!" At that a wrestling match ensued. That always happens when me or any of my friends are around Helsing, we end up in a mass match! Anna simply put her head in her hands and muttered something about immaturity and picked up the Hourglass.

The next thing I see is a blue light.

Kate's Home-

James had finally given up on the whole History thing and was now reading a Harry Potter book with great interest. Alice walked up behind James and looked at what he was reading and jumped onto the beanie chair, Kevin was in the kitchen, and looked rather happy and smiled, Libby was in the recliner when she noticed how Alice was smiling.

"He is not hot." Libby said in a case closed tone of voice. James looked up obviously confused.

"Is too." Alice said, glaring at Libby.

"Not." Libby shot back.

"Too!" Alice growled and glared, crossing her arms over her chest.

"He's a greasy old git!" Libby yelled.

"He just needs a friend." Alice said.

About this time James realized who they where talking about and he had gone silent with shock.

"He was a death-eater!"

"He was a spy!"

"He hates Harry! The most loveable character of all!!"

"He hates him for a reason. And fame isn't everything, Libby."

"Ugh! You are quoting from him now!"

"You quoted from Potter for a while, and you know it."

"Oh come on! Snape?! Why him?!"

"You said that about Dracula too."

"Grrr."

Alice stuck her tongue out at Libby, who promptly lunged at her and a small pillow fight ensued.

Kate's P.O.V-

I found myself in the library of the Valerious Manor, having temporally pinned Helsing, I looked up to see Carl blinking in obvious confusion and Anna laughing behind her hand and trying to look disappointed. Helsing threw me off and proceeded to pin me and win the match. I scowled up at him as he stood up, laughing.

"Grrr, I shall be back Gabriel." I said in my Dracula voice and got up and brushed myself off before walking over to Carl and glomping him.

"Hey again bookworm!" I said and released the severely confused friar.

"When did you get here?" He said and I flicked his ear and laughed.

"About an hour or so ago."

"Oh." I rolled my eyes and told them about the amulet and picked up the Hourglass and pressed the sapphire eye.

A/N: Urgh I know short! Sorry! But I have my reading list and my school starts on the 8th. So if the chapters are becoming less frequent that is why. I will try and update as much as I can but this is just a warning of what MIGHT happen, it al; depends on what after school stuff I have to do. But how did you like it?!
