Kokoro – Hmm… The saints answering Dracula? Maybe they will… Maybe they already have. (That was so cliché of me to say) Who knows? … Besides me… Hehehe… Latin… yes… I don't speak it but I used to go to a Catholic school so I had to memorize all the prayers (Blegh)

Dracula: Yes… there was success… finally.

Uhuh…

Dracula: (reads your review) Hmm… I like her theory better… well mine, but also hers… errg….

Van: (appears and latches onto Dracula)

Dracula: Help?

No… But don't worry I won't attach myself to you… I have NAPOLEON BONAPARTE!

Dracula and Van: (stares… sweat drop)

Ya, ya, you two and the rest of the world.

Napoleon: Pardon, Mademoiselle, mais, what are you doing?

Hugging you.

Napoleon: Uh huh.

Ok enough of that. Yes translators are evil, and I understand the problem with writing a lot of Fanfictions at once. (Nods) Oooo, I am you favorite English author? Yay! (Feels all loved) And you are my favorite German Authoress…. Even though I can barely read your stuff and I am sure it's good. (Hugs)

Napoleon: Next!

Sheena – I am glad that you find it good. (Happy dance) hmm… please review more, I like it!

Nekodra K. Dracula L – It was a little confusing, I'm sorry. Heheh, I think we all wish Dracula was ours.

Dracula: Ha! I am loved, and you Napoleon only have one measly fan girl.

Napoleon: (glares)

Ok you two stop arguing. Heheh thanks!

Catalina Tavington – Why didn't they like your name? It was fine. Though I admit Catalina sounds better… whatever. I am glad that you like it. It's very hard to write a good slash where even the non-slash people like it. (Feels very proud) Okie, I hope you like the rest.

nonamebrand – I am glad that you like the plot, as for the modern speech, it's easier for me to write it that way. As for 'Van' I dunno… I just prefer it that way, I think Carl calls him just 'Van' in some parts of the movie… Well thank you for your opinion and I hope you enjoy the rest. And I don't mind the rant, it's perfectly fine, I rant occasionally too.

Ok thank you all for reviewing and I hope you like the next chapter.

Talkative Preists
The walk back to the inn seemed like a dream. Hell, the whole thing seemed like a dream. After the crowd dispersed Van and Dracula stood there in silence. Finally Dracula straightened up and started to head back to the inn, Van quickly followed.

"Where have you two been?" Was the first thing the two heard as they entered the room. Dracula groaned and headed over to his bed.

"Honestly Van, You have been gone for an hour!" Carl said as he paced the room. Van just rolled his eyes and sat down.

"I thought we told you to not wait up, even then we weren't gone that long." Van said in between yawns.

"But still," Carl's voice dropped, "You were out with him, I had a right to be worried." Van gave the friar a little smile.

"I understand your worries but trust me, I wouldn't go anywhere if it didn't feel right." Van said as he patted the friar on the back. "I appreciate your concern but you need not worry. I can handle myself." Van then shed his coat and shoes and slipped into bed for a few hours sleep. Carl shook his head and also retired to his bed.

Over in the darkened part of the room Dracula sat in thought, he eyes staring out the window. The sound of Christmas music floated through the cracked window.

What child is this

Who lay to rest

On Mary's lap a'sleeping

Haste, haste to bring him laud

The babe the son of Mary…

"You still don't trust me Gabriel." Dracula whispered to himself. "You never will… I am an abomination in your eyes… A thing that is to be killed… Maybe… Maybe he does… no, he's a man of the church…" Dracula stood up and walked over to his bed, on it was the pack of blades that Van had gotten him. "Maybe…" He then sat down and began to read the book he had been working on earlier. Opening to the page he had dog-eared he began to read.

"Why on earth do you want to go on fighting battles?" – Josephine "Because I am a victim of history, I have no option." – Napoleon

Soft films of sunlight began showing through the curtains. Dracula winced and slipped under the covers.

"Hurry this way." It was later that evening and the trio had met up with the priest at the edge of town as planned. The priest led them over to a set of horses. The three quickly slipped onto the horses and waited for further instruction. The preist handed each of them a package; in the package were food, clothes and water. In the case of Dracula it was just clothes.

"Ok once you leave here head north till you reach Leipzig. Ask around for a man named Macon. Tell him Gary sent you. He should provide you with food and shelter, along with new horses. From there head up to will have a red lion on its sign and stay there. In the morning take some fresh horses and head up to the coast. Preferably to Berlin, once you get there go to the first inn you see. From there go to the town of Kiel. Once you get there go down to the docks, there will be plenty of ships, look for one owned by Gunther. He will know who sent you and lend you a sled and some dogs. From there you are on your own." The preist paused and looked at them. "You got it all?"

Van nodded, "Yes, we thank you and may God be with you." He turned his horse around and started off into the forest, Dracula and Carl followed close behind.

End
Ok that was it… Rather boring… aw well, the next chapter will hopefully be better. Hmmm… Oh ya, if you haven't noticed I have added Napoleon Bonaparte to my muse list.

Napoleon: (pouts) I do not want to be here.

That's nice.

Dracula: Ha, you are short!

Napoleon: No I am not! I am 5' 6"

Dracula:… That's short.

Ok you two no arguing. Okie please review!
