Chapter 2
A female scream pierced the darkness as blurry figures started to take shape; there are tall trees, the form of people running wearing old-fashioned clothes. "Constantine what are you waiting for run!" said a familiar female voice, Constantine turns to the source of the voice and sees a blonde girl about 16 years old running towards him "I can't run Genevieve they'll get you " says the Constantine " please come they will kill you if you stay". "No I will not leave Genevieve ". "Here they come "screams another villager "I must go now Genevieve. Go! Go with the others and get inside ". "No I will not leave you my love "replies Genevieve "no, go inside Genevieve" snaps Constantine with an expression which says no questions and reluctantly Genevieve embraced her love and kissed him tenderly before reluctantly letting go "will I ever see you again" says Genevieve in a shaky voice, Constantine removed his wolf fang necklace and put it around his lovers neck "as long as you wear this I shall find you, now go".
Genevieve takes one last look at her lover before finally following the others inside the house. Constantine picks up his musket and takes his place amongst the other men fighting to protect their village. They hear a growl from the woods and lift their muskets to their shoulders and take aim. "What's the date" asks Constantine "July 12th 1805"replies the man nearest to him.
With a howl from the woods out come slavering animals drool dripping from there jaws they stand a foot taller than a man with massive claws, huge hind legs and an animal tail there faces are that of a wolf, they get down on all four paws and charge at the men who stand there ground. "Werewolves" calls one of the men down the line "aim for the heart" screams Constantine and with that a hail of gunfire follows and smoke fills the eyes of the men "whatever you do don't let them into the village" screamed another man.
The werewolves were almost upon them now tearing through the trees and fences as if they were tooth picks but the men held fast with the courage and bravery of the bravest men. Constantine drops his musket pulls out his swords and prepares to go into close combat and screams a motivational speech being the head of the unit "if its our time to die its our time all I ask is, if heaven is waiting for us lets make Saint Peter wait a little longer". A roar of cheers in agreement came up from the surrounding men Constantine smiles but cannot shake the feeling that he was leading these men to their death.
The werewolves were upon them in an instant the men screamed a battle cry and charged head first into the fray. The werewolves fought ferociously as did the men, the men were falling dead left, right and centre, for every werewolf killed three men died in a wash of blood, screams of dieing men echoed through Constantine's head but he held firm thinking of the only thing that mattered, that Genevieve was safe and that he killed the beasts that had tried to take her from him.
At the precise moment a woman's scream from the village tear through the air like a animal claw "Genevieve" screamed Constantine as he ran to the house were Genevieve was, "hold the line I'll me back" screamed Constantine over his shoulder to the men. As he raced to the door of his family's home kicked the door down and saw it…
A towering werewolf leaning over his lover, his cousins and his mum. His grandfather was the only thing standing of the way and the Constantine realised that the animal was toying with him. In a fit of blind rage he tore the musket from the wall behind him and pointed at the animals back. "hey you, animal" said Constantine still aiming at the werewolf, the werewolf turned with a snarl and started lumbering at Constantine slowly "obviously your new, well I'm an exert marksman and your…"Constantine pulled the trigger and the bullet pierced the animals heart and it fell lifeless to the ground "dead" taunted Constantine.
Genevieve ran into her lovers arms and embraced him "I knew you'd come and all the others crowded around him thanking him and at that moment another werewolf burst into the room and charges at Constantine who pushes the rest of the family away as the animal leaped at him and knocked him off his feet they got into a mighty tumble and they fought but the werewolf was more than a mach for the unarmed Constantine and he easily tore landed some bites on him and a ton of slashes.
His grandfather wouldn't let his grandson be killed in front of him and leapt at the animal but was caught in mid air by a beastly claw around the neck and the animal snapped his neck as if it were made of tooth picks and with the screams of the woman and children Constantine witness them torn to pieces one by one. First his mother then his sisters and cousins his grandma put up a fight but was still slaughtered and his nieces and nephews and then it turned to Genevieve with its eyes blazing like the fiery flame of hell.
Just as the towering werewolf was about to pounce an Genevieve a huge bat looking creature smashed through the window of the old house. The werewolf turned his head to see what had happened the creature rushed up to the werewolf grabbed its neck and with an animalistic snarl snapped the werewolf's neck. It then turned its sights onto Genevieve and walked briskly over to her. Bent down as if to kiss her but then Constantine realised the horrible truth "vampire" muttered Constantine under his breath the vampire takes one look at Constantine and then sinks his teeth into Genevieve's throat. Genevieve screamed in pain. As Constantine tried to get up from the corner, but he had lost too much blood in his tussle with the werewolf and could barely move. He could only watch in horror as he saw the life slip from Genevieve's body.
After what seemed like a lifetime and a half the vampire stood up wiped the blood from his lips and just waited and watched Constantine in the corner sadness and anger flaring in his eyes. Then suddenly Genevieve sat bolt up right and looked around. She got to her feet and swayed a little before regaining her balance, she walked over to be Constantine lay still saddened at what he had lost. She asked the vampire casually "can I turn him. Please." As she looked into Constantine's eyes he stared back into here eyes. Hers had gone from a bright green to an icy blue. His had gone from a light brown to a flaring yellow. The vampire answered Genevieve's question "no you can't turn him he is a werewolf now if you bite him he would surly die. "Oh well then I guess this is good bye then my love but I'm sure our paths will cross again in the future" said Genevieve in a calm and plain manner she bent down and kissed her lover from her previous life tenderly then she walked into the open arms of the vampire. Before they left Constantine had mustered enough strength to say only a fey words "So long as you wear that necklace I will find you Genevieve". Genevieve turned around with a smirk on her face and said "I'm counting on it". Then turned and linked arms with the vampire and exited the house. Gone forever
Fang is snapped wide awake he sits bolt upright and screams as if in pain "Genevieve". In the depths of the mansion another person a female is snapped wide awake and says "my god no Constantine found me".
