Digging into the archives
Anna made her way down the hall looking through every door. All it was, was hallway after hallway, door after door. All it was, was a bunch of scrap metal and papers. "What the hell. There's nothing here but crap. That's it!" By this point Anna was starting to get a little annoyed with her findings. Suddenly a door seemed to appear out of no where. It caught her eye. The handle had blue sapphire rubies in them and the handle was of silver. The door was cherry oak and the door frame was gold with bats for the engravings on them. Anna opened up the doors and gasped. Inside was a dimly lit room with shelves of books. She took a closer look and realized that they were about her family. These were family archives. She found a book about her brother. It told about his date of birth. His fighting techniques, hobbies weapons he carried school records ect. "Stalker" Anna murmured under her breath. She put the book down and drew her attention to the one with her name on it. It was a red leather book. Her name written in gold letters. A heart enclosing it in. She opened it to see it was more like a diary than a record book. I said January 22 1774 I fought Anna once more. Why does one such as herself fight me. Can she not see I love her. And only want to look out for her. It annoys me... Anna shut the book not wanting to read anymore. She looked around when something caught her eye it was a leather bound book with a symbol of a dragon on it. Anna once again opened up another book and read it. She stood there for about 5 minutes reading when a growl snapped her back to reality. Quickly discarding the book she looked around her. She couldn't find the source of the growl but instincts told her to flee from the room. The werewolf above her growled once more as he saw her run. He immediately gave chase to her. Anna looked behind her to see a werewolf chasing her. But then it had stopped. It landed on the ground and looked her in the eye. It was as if it was trying to tell her something. But what. He's seen her before in his dreams. That face. It looked so familiar to him. He couldn't harm her. He morphed back into his human shape. He was about 5 inches taller then Anna was. Had shoulder length dark brown hair. And had bright green eyes that seemed to smile down at Anna. When Anna saw this. She looked into his eyes. They were a bright green color. Like Van Helsing's. "Van Helsing?" Anna gasped. She didn't know why she just said this. It must have been hope. Hope that somehow he never died. That he came back. That somehow he would save her. But that was only a fantasy. He was dead. And no matter what he would never come back. It was just some silly girl dream that Anna prayed would somehow come true. She would do anything to see Van Helsing again.
"Sorry my name is Josh" he spoke softly. "What is your name?" "Anna Valerious" Anna said her heart falling when she realized that there was no way Van Helsing could come back. "Tell me, what is your last name" Anna questioned.
"Uhh… I really don't know. I was never told my last name" Josh responded.
"What?" Anna asked shocked by his answer. How can someone not know what there last name was. It was down right wrong. Anna kept thinking until she heard Dracula's icy voice cut into her own thoughts.
"Ah well done my servant. You found my guest and future bride" Dracula smiled but then glared down at Anna. Josh hung his head and mumbled a welcome. He felt bad for Anna. He saw how she was brought here. Against her will. And he wanted to help her but knew if he did anything Dracula would easily kill him. He was a coward.
"Now tell me Anna, where did you go?" Dracula asked accusingly.
"Why does it matter where I went" Anna spat back.
She isn't afraid to speak her mind. Josh saw this in Anna and found it as a strong point and a weakness. He then shook his head, why should he care. Why was he looking for those traits. Why was he trying to look out for her.
"Because" Dracula said coldly, "This is my house and I want to know where my guests are at all times"
"Well we can't always get what we want now can we" Anna smirked. Dracula growing rather frustrated slapped her.
At this Josh growled and lunged at Dracula. "Don't harm her!" Anna stood there in shock. Why would he help her. He's going to get killed for this. "Dracula! NO!" Anna cried when she saw him transform to punish Josh. "Don't hurt him!" Some how Anna had to help him. She couldn't lose someone who reminded her so much of her beloved Van Helsing. Her heart would shatter like glass. And this glass was that of a church. Pure, radiant, and very fragile. It broke once. She couldn't let it happen again. She moved in between the two lunging beasts. They collided straight into Anna. Anna feeling crushed dropped to the floor in a painful heap. Before she blacked out, she saw Dracula's cobalt blue eyes glaring into her brown ones. "I'll deal with you later" he whispered into her ear just before she completely lost all senses. Great she thought bitterly. And allowed her self to slip away from him as long as possible. Hopefully for eternity.
