I don't own anything!
Anna dodged his attack and rolled out of the way. Josh growled in annoyance. "Come on Anna. I don't have time for games right now!" Dracula hissed in pain as he felt his strength going. "Fight him Anna. You can do it!" Dracula whispered to her as Anna rushed to help him out of the net. "Your tangled in here! Why didn't you just stay still!" Anna cried out in frustration. "That way I wouldn't have to save your sorry butt!" Josh lunged again at Anna this time pinning her down. "Now princess. You can do this the easy way or the hard way." Josh said hoarsely. "Don't choose the hard way please"
"Well since you asked nicely." Anna thrust her palm smashing Josh's nose. "I'll do it the hard way." Josh growled once more. "Hit him again, Anna!" Dracula hissed.
"I didn't want to have to do this Anna." Josh said. "Do what? You can't even beat me." Anna smirked.
"Getting beaten by a girl. How pathetic." Dracula smirked.
"How much do you want a bet?" Josh asked transforming into a beast that wasn't known in any parts of Transylvania.
"What are you?" Anna screamed as she turned to run.
"I'm fear. I am terror. I'm evil. My powers are great. Even greater than Dracula's." Anna looked at him in fear. He had fur that was reddish brown. His teeth were large and two fangs protruded from his upper lip. Claws contracted from inside of the massive paws and his piercing red eyes glared at Anna.
"Well, that's not good." Dracula said, fear burning in his eyes.
"What am I is what you want to know? I'm a shape shifter. I'm one of the very few. We are called heavens worriers. We fight evil and kill it." Josh grinned.
"But. I thought you were a werewolf?" Anna asked.
"I used to be that! Until someone dear to you gave me this wonderful power." Josh said. With that he transformed into a huge black eagle and picked Anna up. "Now, we're going"
They went through the large window in Anna's room leaving Dracula there. Dracula transformed with the amount of energy he had left. Josh maybe strong, but he isn't smart. He underestimated his powers. Dracula ripped the ropes apart and staggered to his feet. He would find Anna. Even if it killed him.
Anna struggled in Josh's grip. "Let me go!" Anna cried.
Josh kept on flying until they reached the town. There he transformed into his human form and dragged Anna in the inn.
"You did not bring me here!" Anna said sharply. "I HATE THIS PLACE!" Anna cried out.
"Why is that dear?" Mary came in the room.
"Your working with him as well. Are you trying to ruin my life!" Anna said with anger rushing out of her and throwing it into anyone's path that dared to stand near her.
"We are only trying to help you princess. To help you get away from the monster." Mary said surprised at Anna's temper.
"I was fine there. Dracula is not a monster, but of course you wouldn't know that now would you!" Anna asked dangerously.
"He enslaved us all." Mary said.
"I'll be right back." Josh said interrupting the fight between Mary and Anna. Anna grabbed Josh's collar and pulled him back to where he was standing.
"Your not going anywhere!" Anna said icily. Josh stayed rooted to his spot fearing what Anna might do if he dared to move. He couldn't help but think why he was so scared. He could obviously overpower her.
Anna returned to glaring at Mary. "He may have enslaved you, but he released all of you when I asked him to. He kept his promise. Now you turn on him and plan to kill him!" Anna yelled. "Are you bent on destroying everything I loved. First you make me lose my freedom by keeping me in this crappy inn, then when I start to actually love him, YOU TRY TO BLOODY KILL HIM!" Anna was now screaming.
Josh took this moment and broke away from Anna. As he ran towards the door he banged into Van Helsing.
"Watch where your going." Van Helsing growled.
"Sorry," Josh said and ran out of the room away from Anna's fury.
Van Helsing approached Anna with caution. "Anna? Calm down, everything will be fine. Your just a bit shaken up that's all." Van Helsing said putting his hand on her shoulder.
Anna not recognizing his voice turned on him. "Listen buddy, I'm in no mood for your…" Anna stopped when she saw his face. "Your,… alive?" Anna asked, tears flooding her eyes.
"Yes, I'm back." Van Helsing said wrapping his arms around her.
Anna cried into his shoulder. Van Helsing thought it was because she was happy to see him. The real reason was because she didn't want to see him. Now she would have to choose between Dracula, or the one she used to love. Or was it that she still loved.
Dracula called upon his servant axel. He was a replacement from his other servant Igor. Axel carried his master into his bedroom and laid him in his coffin.
"Is there anything I can bring you master?" Axel asked.
"Get me one of the betrayers from the dungeon. I need something to help me restore my energy." Dracula said.
Axel obeyed and went into the dungeons. He picked out a strong looking fellow and dragged him back to his master. He had to knock him out first though.
Dracula smiled. "Thank you." He said and drank from the man. Yet, he didn't kill him. Dracula had other plans.
"Tell me Axel." Dracula said as he dropped the near dead body on the ground. "How old are you"
"I'm twenty five master." Axel said.
"Isn't that nice." Dracula smirked. "Come here. I want to tell you something"
Axel leaned in and Dracula grabbed him by the shoulders. Axel screamed as Dracula bit into him. As he drank his blood Axel became weaker. When Dracula nearly drained him he let go. He wiped the remaining blood off of his mouth and watched as the once dead prisoner raise. "What is thy will master?" The prisoner asked Dracula bowing on one knee.
"I want you to turn every prisoner into vampires." Dracula said.
Axel arose just as the other man walked out of the room.
"Why did you do that?" Axel asked.
"I need soldiers if I want to win this battle against werewolves." Dracula stated. "Now go and help our new friend turn some others into prisoners. I need my rest." Dracula said.
Axel nodded and left.
Dracula smiled. He wasn't about to lose Anna. Tomorrow he will call in all the other vampires he knows. If a battle was what they wanted. Then hell, there's going to be a battle.
Anna sat at a table talking to Van Helsing.
"How are you back?" Anna asked.
"Josh brought me back. He said he needed my help. I'm here to kill Dracula." Van Helsing explained.
"Speaking of Josh. He told me that he is a shape shifter. He's called Heaven's worriers." Anna said curiously.
"So you figured out huh? I told him not to say anything. Dammit! Now Dracula knows our best weapon." Van Helsing cursed.
Anna looked at him wide eyed. "Your one as well?" Anna asked.
"I turned him into what he is." Van Helsing sighed. "Everyone here is what I and he is." "Why?" Anna asked.
Van Helsing chuckled a bit. "I see that you haven't lost the trait of asking a lot of questions." Van Helsing grinned.
Anna grinned as well. " I missed you." Anna said.
"I missed you as well. But now I'm back. So we can be together." He said looking at Anna.
Anna just smiled. In her heart she knew that, that is not what she wanted. If he came back earlier, it would have been great.
"What's the matter?" Van Helsing asked looking at Anna.
Anna looked at the table, tears coming into her eyes.
"Don't you want to be together?" Van Helsing asked.
Anna didn't know what to say. "I need to go to bed. I'll talk to you later." Anna said getting up and kissing him on the cheek. "I really missed you." With that Anna went up the stairs.
Van Helsing smiled. He was oblivious that she no longer cared for him but only as a friend. She was in love with Count Dracula. Not Van Helsing.
