Warning: If you want to know the base of this story, read my Van Helsing 2, for this is merely a revision of my original story.
Disclaimer: Universal Studios, Stephen Sommers, and the crew of Van Helsing own the base characters, but I own Alvonia Elra, Sereno Harven, Enchantress, Darkbane, and Hervok Vorra. I don't own Vampire, The Gillman, The Invisible Man, The Wolf Man, or the Banshee. Thanks.
Author's Note: Thanks for any reviews! As you may have seen, I put the first chapter of The Wallowing Whispers: Krel's Journey! I will update that soon! UPDATE: Sorry for the delay! Two of my stories got taken off, so, my creative writing juices have sort of seeped out, so, just consider this a filler chapter! Sorry! Please review!
Van Helsing: Legends of Blood Reign
Chapter 18: The Life Bringer: A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing
Enchantress narrowed her eyes and looked straight at Ayannae. She walked over to her and smiled, her canines pressing upon her plump lips.
"Hello Ayannae" she said simply. The woman looked at her with apprehensive eyes. She raised an eyebrow.
"Enchantress, dear friend, all the years that I have known you…" she stopped, looking at her more closely. "…you have never greeted the ones around you with such pleasure" she stated. Enchantress smiled and walked up to Ayannae. She placed her hand upon the woman's shoulder and smiled at her.
"When have I never greeted you with pleasure, Princess?" she asked. Ayannae curved her eyebrows.
"Princess?" she snapped. Enchantress looked down to the ground to see a large casket with a half-open hood. Lord Harven had sent her and Darkbane to 'where the sea meets the sky' and that is what they had done. They had successfully taken a Princess from the grave and brought her here. Darkbane had traveled back to Fortress Miles to report their actions to their Lord. Enchantress walked next to the casket and smiled at her opposite. The woman shook her head, stepping backward.
"What are you doing?" she asked. Enchantress laughed and finally pulled a crucifix from her pocket.
"Stay calm, Ayannae! You know that this must be done!" she said calmly. Just then, the ground shook violently. Enchantress turned toward the Mausoleum, eyes wide. A smile curled upon her lips. "The Life Bringer!" she hissed, eyes glowing red. Ayannae screamed and began to run away, but she was too late. From deep within the ground came mountainous spikes. The shot from the earth and held as a strict barrier between her and freedom. Enchantress laughed and held the crucifix tightly in her hand. She fixed her eyes upon the Mausoleum as it broke open. The words ANTICIO that had been carved into the door were scratched away as the whole foundation broke to pieces. Each grave in the cemetery cracked and flew away as the earth was pushed upon by the deceased. Ayannae screamed and tried to find a way out, but there was nothing, not even a wall to climb over. The casket that lay on the ground flew fully open. A white light flew out of its shelter and pierced the sky. Enchantress and Ayannae saw that a being could be seen in the light. It looked around and finally stared at Ayannae. Enchantress ran up to her and plunged the crucifix into her chest. Ayannae screamed again as it pierced her soul. The being in the light flew down toward the crucifix and Enchantress fell back to the ground from astonishment. Ayannae's eyes went a piercing white as the being began to possess her. Her head shook violently back and forth as it overruled her. The casket upon the ground lined up with the woman and she finally fell down into it. The light commenced and seeped back into the grave. Enchantress sprang to her feet and looked as a being stepped from the Mausoleum. It had deep black eyes and was wrapped in a red cloak. The being's hair was raven-black and its features were ghostly. Enchantress' eyes widened as she saw it advance toward her.
"Stay back" she hissed, her voice failing. Her head turned toward the grave upon the ground. It was slowly opened. "No!" she yelled. The being from the mausoleum's steps echoed through Enchantress' mind as it advanced.
"Enchantress! Awaken the one with blood-royal! Complete the incantation! I beg you" it said, voice mixed. It sounded as if it were braking away. Enchantress' eyes were now filled with tears piercing as acid. She looked down on the ground again and shook her head.
"Who are you?" she asked slowly, the tears falling on her front. The creature pulled the red cloak down across its face and pointed an ancient finger.
"The incantation!" it hissed. Enchantress kept her eyes on the grave and sniffed air in.
"Winds of life, May the s…soul be blessed. Call the life bringer, ruler of all!" she choked out. The creature nodded and gave a small laugh as the casket shot open. A light like none other seared out of it and pierced the sky.
"The life bringer" the creature mouthed. A cackle came from deep within it's throat as a being rose from the ground. Enchantress stepped back to see a woman cloaked in blue. She shook her head.
"It can't be!" she yelled. The creature in the red cloak held his hands out.
"Yes!" it lulled. The woman looked at the both of them and narrowed her eyes.
"Tepes!"
Author's Note: That's all! Probably shortest chapter yet! Review Please!
