Death is Certain
A/N: Hello hello! It is me again and I have at last managed to edit the second chapter before I change my mind and dump it all in the trash. But I thought it'll be such a waste if I did that! So here it is! Please enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do NOT own Van Helsing or any of the characters in it! I DO own Sivishya and Vacharise and all the other characters I made though!
Chapter Two – Changes
"Natalie, over here!" Vacharise shouted softly and Natalie scuttled forth, her eyes round with curiosity as she gave out a girlish giggle. Sivishya smiled and led them through the living room. It was decorated with the emblem of the house, but other then that, it was just a normal living room with a few chairs of sorts.
Natalie ran for the chairs as the two adults came a bit slower, settling on the other two open chairs that were beginning to be worn out. Vacharise raised an eyebrow as the chair below him gave out a creak that sounded like a tired moan. And then Vacharise looked up at his sister, as if he was examining her and then opened his eyes in a curled smile.
"Siv, you've changed!"
Sivishya immediately felt herself burn brightly, though she knew she looked absolutely calm outside. It was years since her brother ever mentioned about her looks, good or bad. It brought back both great and unpleasant memories to Sivishya. But Sivishya grinned anyway.
"You as well, brother! Natalie has grown up to be quite the little girl! She can even walk on her own now!" Sivishya exclaimed and Natalie jumped off her chair, running for carved emblem of the serpent on the black metal walls. She gave out a 'oooo' and leaned forward in fascination. Vacharise, on the other hand, only smiled, but a frown mixed with it, making Sivishya question that frown.
"Well, I heard Dracula had finally been vanquished. It seems the village doesn't need us anymore, eh?" Vacharise said and laughed, shrugging a bit as he scruffed up his already untidy hair. Sivishya rolled her eyes at the old habit her brother still had. "But who did it?"
"Can't you guess, Ris?" Sivishya said with a teasing smile as he saw the look on her brother's face turn to delighted astonishment. Vacharise's eyes widened and his mouth gaped for a moment, before shutting back in its place.
"The Valerious! They really did it then?"
"Of course they did it! They had to do it eventually, y'know! I'm really happy for them. They've been suffering these past few months, the villagers said. But now their at peace," Sivishya said and relief filled her. The Valerious Family was really at peace. But this time, they will never come back to save the world from more of the evil creatures roaming the Earth. Sivishya felt sad of this.
"But how? They must have got some help from someone to destory Dracula and his brides!" Vacharise said, as if he was denying that the Valerious had did it at last. And maybe he was. Sivishya couldn't tell.
"How should I know, Ris! Aren't you supposed to be the smart one?" Sivishya said and laughed. "No I'm joking, Anna and the others probably found something they didn't think had existed."
"So did Anna do it alone?" exclaimed Vacharise, and his eyes darkened. He was happy for the Valerious to have vanquished the monster at last, but it didn't mean it was over yet. And if someone had been helping them, there might have been some twist to the link the Valerious Elder had asked of God. He, for one, didn't think the skinny little girl he knew as Anna Valerious was capable of defeating a beast as clever as the count.
"I don't know. The villagers did mention strangers helping Anna. But it might just have been a rumor. I think it was Van Helsing, but if it were…" Sivishya stopped, biting her lips bitterly. No contact. No Nothing. She was bruised and hurt inside that she felt like ripping away her heart from her body to ease the pain. She knew it was impossible though. She would have to deal with the pain later.
Vacharise snorted, a mixture of disgust in them and hissed, "Of course, Van Helsing will always be there to save the day…"
"Drop it Ris!" Sivishya growled back, fighting back tears and holding back the urge to leave, she just stood up and turned her back on Vacharise. Vacharise closed his eyes in irriation and looked away towards the window.
A/N: Well that's it for now! I will keep updating (and editing) pages up. I hope you like the story so far and please review if you do! Feedback will be much appreciated. And if you see a spelling mistake, I'm sorry but you can ignore it. I don't have a spell checker so I'm doing the best I can to get all the paragraphs, sentences, words, etc right. Thanks for reading and ciao for now!
