Disclaimer/I do not own Van Helsing….
Chap. 10
Van Helsing, Anna, and Carl walked into the heart of Translvania. Carl looked around terrified. "alright, there's nothing here, let's go!" Carl said as he turned around. Van Helsing grabbed him and was about to say something, when a bright light flashed through the sky.
"Van Helsing, that's the bright light I saw a few days ago!" Anna explained. Van Helsing heard a noise behind him. He turned around his gone propped up, ready to shoot. When he saw nothing he lowered his gun. He heard Anna scream behind him. He turned around and saw a bunch of skeletons attacking Carl and Anna.( the skeletons are not mine, I got them from the Van Helsing video game.)
He shot the one's near Anna, then the ones near carl. Carl was breathing heavily and started walking backwards. He bumped into something and turned around. It was a skeleton, he stared at it for a few seconds then said, "hello, how are you." The skeleton didn't do anything. "are you going to answer me or not?" Carl asked. The skeleton tilted it's head back and right when it was about to breath stinky green acid breath into Carl's face his head went flying off it's neck and into the air. Carl watched it go off into the distance. "well that was rude." He said. Van Helsing and Anna ran up. "Carl, why didn't you move that was a skeleton!" Van Helsing exclaimed. "it was going to smash your head into mashed potatoes!" Anna yelled at him. Carl looked at them confusion. "That was you who took his head off, well that was not very nice I was talk…SKELETON!" Carl put his hands up in the air and ran off screaming. He stopped screaming when he bumped into something and fell to the ground. He looked up at it. It was another skeleton. Carl stared at a moment then said, "Hello, my name is carl!" Van Helsing slapped his fore-head as he watched Carl greet the skeleton. The skeleton looked like he wasn't doing anything, just staring at Carl with his eye-less eyes. (if that makes sense.) Carl got up and put out his hand. "I see you are shy, that is alright." The skeleton looked down at his hand and with it's bony fingers took and threw carl over his shoulder. Carl screamed as he went flying threw the air. He landed on the hard cement. "owwie." He said slowly. "if that is how you treat your friends, I don't want to be one of them!" Carl yelled after the skeleton who was walking towards the other skeletons. Van Helsing walked over to Carl and helped him up. "when will you ever learn, carl." Carl had a very confused look on his face. "what do you mean?" "that was a skeleton!" Van Helsing said pointing to the pack of skeletons. "Van Helsing what is wrong with you! It could of killed me! You could have warned me I was talking to a skeleton." Van Helsing sighed. "I did carl!" Carl glared at him. "no you didn't!" He yelled at him. "carl, I did I told you that it could have killed you, you ran off screaming and then stopped when you ran into a skeleton and then started talking to him!" Van Helsing said getting annoyed. Carl narrowed his eyes. "sure you did." He said sarcastically. "Carl! I did!" Van Helsing said gritting his teeth. Carl looked over Van Helsing's shoulder and smirked a bit. "Van Helsing anna's Getting attacked. Van helsing spun around and saw Anna sitting on one of the steps looking bored, no skeletons around her. Van helsing turned back around. "carl…anna is not…" He noticed carl was not here anymore. "CARL!"
Carl laughed as he heard his name being yelled. He slowed down to a walk and then walked into something again. He turned his gaze to whatever it was he bumped into. (just guess what it was? Guess!) and you're right(or wrong) it was a skeleton. But this time Carl headed Van Helsings warning. He took a gun out of his cloak, (who knows what he hides in there.) and pointed it at the skeleton. "Alright…I've got a weapon and I know how to use it." He said, his hand shaking. The skeleton, to carls surprise, backed up raising his hands in the air. "please don't shoot me…I mean no harm." The skeleton said. Carl raised his eyebrows, or at least tried, but kept the gun up. "You speak?" Carl asked. "I do…yes. But them over there, they do not. I am a peace seeker. They believe humans are evil, I do not. The humans did nothing to us, I said. And they just shunned me. I…I…" The skeleton explained. "how can I trust you." Carl asked shakily. "You don't have to…but all I want is a friend. I have no friends in my skeleton family. No one likes me…as you can see they like attacking humans. I do not." Carl lowered the gun slowly, staring sideways at the skeleton. "what's your name?" Carl asked. "George." Carl placed the gun back into is cloak. "I'm carl." He held out his hand. The skeleton stared at him, disbelievingly. "you trust me?" Carl nodded. "YaY!" The skeleton shook his hand.
After a while all the skeletons, except George, were killed and Van Helsing and anna are exhausted. They were sitting on the steps of the well. Carl on the other hand was chatting with George on the other side of town. "Maybe we should go find carl." Anna suggested. "I guess." Van helsing said, just then Carl walked into view. "Hello Van helsing, Anna." Van Helsing leaped up, raising his gun. "Carl…don't move…there is a skeleton behind you." And of course carl moves, turning his head. He turned back to van helsing who's fingers were on the trigger. "No! Van Helsing stop! He's my friend."
