--Failed Antidote--

A/N: Thank you for the reviews! Sorry I updated a bit slow!
And for some who think the trailer was a bit meaning less, I'm sorry I didn't post a chapter instead. I was just new to the idea of writing a chapter! (Ugh, this whole thing about no being able to answer back reviews is starting to get on my nerves...) Anyways, if you haven't noticed, I put in two trailers for the story (sorry it must be annoying in the scrolly thing, cause I think its a bit annoying, lol) So if you wanna have a read, please do! Have a good read and please review!

Summary: What if the antidote didn't make the werewolf venom disappear? What if Anna wasn't killed in the process? And what if without the antidote, Van Helsing is free to roam about without Dracula's will over him? What if another monster hunter is now after Van Helsing... to kill him, who happened to be Van Helsing's son? What if Dracula's alive and he chooses two ladies to become his Brides?

Disclaimer: Yahooooooo! (rides car with stolen Van Helsing) I stole Van Helsing! Mine now! My own... my precious... (wasn't focusing on the car and swerves towards nearby tree) ... BANG! ... (gasp) I don't own Van Helsing!

Chapter Eleven
The Hidden Book

Carl, Nemamiah and Anna were all running through the cold, harsh weather back to Castle Frankenstein, which had, yet again, experiments strung on the building. They ran quickly and they knew they had to act fast. All had determined looks in their eyes and this time, they were not going to run from the enemy. They needed to get Van Helsing back, and destory Dracula, his brides and the eggs.
Nemamiah thought over his plan while running and smiled.

Flashback

Carl and Anna quickly looked around at Nemamiah and his grin spread wider than ever.

"Come on, tell us your plan! We don't have much time!" Anna barked and Nemamiah nodded.

"First we enter the castle together and go up the steps. Dracula and his brides will be preoccupied with whatever... experiments they are trying to do to my father," Nemamiah began but Anna interrupted. "But that does not mean Dracula will not attack!"

"Yes, but there's only Dracula and his brides isn't it? One of us can go and destroy the machine before it's too late."

"Hmm interesting. But what about the brides?" Carl spoke and Nemamiah nodded.

"Ignore them as much as possible, unless they try to attack you, in which case, attack. But we need to focus on rescuing my father and destorying the equipment!" Nemamiah spoke. Carl raised an eyebrow.

"Let's go then! We can't wait any longer!" Anna shouted and started to run towards the Castle but then Nemamiah grabbed her hand.

Anna turned towards him and said, "What?"

"What weapons do you have on you right now?" Nemamiah questioned and Anna stopped.

"I... don't actually have any weapons in particular."

"What about you Carl?"

Carl looked around and he had some stakes, a few holy water and garlic. Nemamiah sighed. He took out one of his extra guns and gave it to Anna and a large stake from his belt to Carl.

"I have about 20 bullets in one of my pistols and 10 in another. It won't be long till we will get destroyed instead. So we will have to work swiftly! Ok, now let' s go!" Nemamiah shouted and motioned his finger at the Castle.

End of Flashback

"We find Van Helsing first! I don't care how we do it, we find Van Helsing!" Anna shouted from the sound of the sparking machinery. Nemamiah started to protest but stopped. He wasn't going to be able to convince Anna that stopping the machine, breaking it would be a lot better for Van Helsing because then he wouldn't be harmed. He too also wanted to rescue his father.

"Alright, we rescue my father first. But we will have to destory the equipment!"

"Of course!" Anna answered and she led the way towards the highest part of the tower where Nemamiah and Carl followed. Their footsteps echoed but the sound of crashing equipment was louder, hiding them. The shadows also stretched and hid them. It was almost as if the place wanted Dracula destroyed.

The three passed through towards the top and then just before they climbed another flight of stairs, they saw a glimpse of Dracula raising both his arms at the air, his two brides purring up at his neck.

Anna looked at the brides with disgust and looked above at the object being raised up towards the sky. She saw a quick glance of something white, maybe a hand, on the thing and immediately knew her theory was right. She looked back at Nemamiah and she could see the horrified expression on his face.

"That's Van Helsing! We have to get to him!" Anna whispered and both Carl and Nemamiah nodded.

"Anna, rescue my father from that horrible machine and Carl too, you should go with Anna. I will break all the equipment before Dracula tries anything!" Nemamiah instructed and Anna ad Carl nodded and ran together towards the stairs, trying as hard as they to be unseen.

Nemamiah also ran back to the sparking equipments as well but then he heard a rumble from above and saw a huge flash of lightening. Quickly he grabbed a nearby object that looked like a metal pole and slammed it down on the machine, whatever it was. It immediately gave out more sparks and a sharp, loud bang of metal. He looked around nervously. Dracula would have heard that. He looked again at the machine and swung the pole down again, and the machine gave out one last spark and died down.

Nemamiah's lips turned into a smile and then he turned around, still holding the pole until he came face to face with Lucrezia. She immediately swung her claws at Nemamiah and he was knocked off his feet onto the ground, the metal pole flying out of his hands.

"Why, nice of you to join us!" Lucrezia cackled and she turned into her white, vampire form. Nemamiah felt claws sink into him, making him gasp out painfully as the vampiress lifted him off his feet and bringing higher towards the sky...

Anna and Carl ran as fast as they can towards the stairs leading upwards to the machines Van Hlsing was most likely trapped in. Lightening flashed up above the castle and crackled down on the castle, though not on the equipment. The two heard a hiss and they turned back to see the other vampiress, Jezanna, flying at them. Carl instinctvely ducked and the vampiress crashed into Anna. Carl gasped ratherguiltily as Anna screamed and Jezanna screeched delightfully.

"Hello, princess!" Jezanna cackled as she knocked Anna off her feet. Anna quickly grabbed for her gun and shot at Jezanna. She screamed, wailing painfully at her body. Carl also grabbed for his stake and threw it at Anna who was about to strike it right at Jezanna but she kicked it out of Anna's hands. Slowly the wounds from the bullets started to heal and there were small sounds of a clank that signaled that the bullets had been removed from Jezanna. Jezanna snapped her head at Anna furiously as Anna ran for further up the stairs.

Carl gave a frightened yelp as wings smacked him off balance and he fell down the stairs rather painfully. He felt an awful lurch and at last he stopped, dizzy and sick to his stomach. He quickly got up to his feet and then his woozy eyes focused to see that had had just dropped down some sort of secret room. He looked up and saw how he had dropped down from the stairs.

"Oh my..." he whispered as he turned around to see a book case and small fragile looking objects on one small table. There was also a small chair to go with it. Carl walked quickly towards the book case and noticed there was only one book on the book case. That's strange... Carl thought as he took it off the bookcase and looked at the cover. He gave a sharp gasp of disbelief at what he saw written on the front cover. There, on the cover, was a bold title, 'Vampire & Werewolves' with a small latin inscription that wrote, if translated in english, 'How to cure and kill them.'

Carl's eyes seemed to bulge out of his sockets as he immediately, or rather frantically, flipped through the pages. His face seemed to light up at hope at the words written on the book. He had finally found the cure to the werewolf curse.

A/N: I'm sorrrrrrrrrrry! I'm guilty, very guilty that I had to stop it there. If this chapter was a bit short, I'm also sorry about that too! I will write longer next time! Anyways, please review!
