The Gwy, YD Series: Alternate Realities

Chapter 6

A FEW DAYS LATER

Vlad was once again walking through the streets, trying to clear his head. He looked up at the stars, walking through alleyways, not really paying much attention to where he was going. He didn't notice when he bumped into someone. He muttered an apology, and continued walking. Well, he tried to keep walking but someone tugged on his arm, pulling him back, and forcing him to look at them. He looked up to see five menacing looking vampires, two boys and three girls. The two guys wore leather jackets and leather trousers with spiked black combat boots. One guy had spiked brown hair and green eyes and the other had curly blonde hair and hazel eyes. The girls were all dressed in leather cat-suits, all in dark shades. One girl had mocha skin, chocolate brown eyes and medium brown hair. The other girl had tanned skin, golden brown eyes and light brown hair pulled up into a high ponytail. The other girl, who was clearly the ring leader of the group, had ivory skin, grey-blue eyes and natural long red hair. The guy with brown hair introduced himself as Chet, and his friend with the blonde hair as Charleston. The girl with the medium brown hair introduced herself as Charlotte and her friend with the brown hair as Charlene. The ringleader introduced herself as Chaney.

Vlad: So, you're names all begin with CH? That's cool.

Chaney: So, what's the famous Grand High Vampire doing in this part of town?

Vlad: Just… taking a stroll.

Vlad frowned; these guys were obviously not satisfied with that answer and were obviously looking for trouble.

Vlad: Look, I'm not looking for any trouble…

Chet: Well too bad, cause it looks like you found it.

Vlad sighed; he was so not in the mood to deal with these guys. And five against one isn't exactly fair odds.

Charleston: It's time for the beating of a lifetime.

Charlene: Yeah, let's see how Mr. Powerful handles some conflict.

Charlotte: And how he deals with all five of us.

They broke out into a fight. Punches flew, kicks landed and vampire fire power was tossed through the air. The fight lasted about five minutes, most of it having been in fast vampire speed. Vlad had managed to take them all down, but now he was exhausted. He stopped, looking at the piles of ash on the ground. He had managed to find something to use as a stake amongst the rubbles of the alleyway. It wasn't really his fault that he got into a fight, but he still felt tremendous guilt over the lives he had just taken.

Vlad returned the castle once more. He had had a long, hard think about everything and came to a conclusion about what course of action he should take. He had realised that he had to accept his mistakes and live in the real world. This world was worse and not the world people should live in. He shouldn't subject people to this. He had to change it back. He had gathered all the ingredients he needed and was ready to perform the spell to change everything back. He sighed. He had been so stupid. He tried to fix his mistakes and in doing so just made more. He had shunned the people who care about him, particularly Gwynn. He had forgotten everything good that his world offered. He didn't know if Gwynn would ever forgive him for this…. For what happened with Erin…. And for everything else… But he knew now. He knew what he wanted. He wanted his sister back. He wanted the real world. The world that was meant to be the one he lived in. And, most of all, he wanted Gwynn back. He had realised that she was the one he truly loved. He would try his best to make this up to her, somehow, even if it took an eternity. He performed the spell, determination sinking in. He opened his eyes and found himself in the throne room of the castle. His Dad was there, Gwynn was there and Ingrid was there! He looked out the window and found that everything was back to normal. He couldn't help but grin. He was so relieved. He ran over and hugged Ingrid, almost afraid to let her go. She looked shocked, making her best effort not to spill the glass of red wine she was holding. Then he ran over and hugged Gwynn, softly kissing her on the lips. She looked like she wasn't sure what to make of it. Then, just for the heck of it, he ran over and hugged his Dad.

Ingrid: What's up with you, freak?

Vlad: I'm just really happy to see you guys!

Gwynn: So, you finally changed the world back.

Vlad: Yeah. Listen… maybe we should go somewhere and talk.

Gwynn: Listen… Vlad… I've been doing some thinking. And this whole experience has been… interesting for me.

She didn't make it seem like that was really the word she wanted to use.

Gwynn: I know you still have feelings for Erin…

Vlad: I don't! I love you!

Gwynn: You said that before! And then, this happened. How can I trust that you won't change your mind again?

Gwynn was obviously upset and Vlad was beginning to feel the same way. Vlad held her hands.

Vlad: Please. I know I messed up. But I will spend an eternity making it up to you. I'll do anything. I love you.

Gwynn: I love you always, Vlad. But, I just don't know if I can trust you. The stunt you pulled. And how do I know who you love more?

She sighed, running her hands through her hair in frustration.

Gwynn: Look, I think we just need some time apart. Figure out what we want, and-

Vlad: I know what I want! I want you! I love you! I'm not gonna change my mind!

Gwynn shook her head, not as a no, more of a reflex. Her eyes were beginning to well up with tears, but she told herself to be strong.

Gwynn: I'll make you a deal. I'm gonna go away for a little while. And, we'll both decide what we want. We'll talk when I get back. And if it's me you love, and if you stay faithful… then we'll talk…

She sighed one more time, knowing that this had to be done if they were going to get anywhere in their relationship. She had to know if she could trust him. She had to know she wasn't second best. She wouldn't live like that. It wasn't fair to her.

Gwynn: Goodbye, Vlad.

Gwynn picked up her suitcase and left. Vlad watched her go, tears threatening to spill. He didn't go after her, as he knew she was right.
