I do not own Van Helsing. I only own Tiffani and Lexi.

Story Start

"I have a feeling I'm missing all the fun," Tiffani said with a pout from her seat on one of the beautiful beds in the castle. She had grown bored quickly after looking through the rooms and only finding beautiful clothes or knick-knacks. She had found the weapon room, which had been amazing for a few minutes. She had already seen all of the weapons before. However, she stayed far away from the large stakes that were in the room.

"I wonder what Lexi and the other two are doing?" she whispered before standing up from the bed. "Oh well, time to sneak out of here. I'll meet the others in town," she thought and put the blanket back on the bed. The castle was freezing in the area where she was. The rooms were extravagant and beautiful, but the heating system was lacking.

"Oh electricity, I miss it," she muttered while leaving the room. She made sure to carry around a wooden chair leg, which she had broken off a chair in a room earlier. She was not going to be caught roaming around this castle without some type of weapon against the vampires. She knew it would not do any good against Dracula, but the brides were another story. "I hope Lexi is safe or kicking somebody's butt," she thought while quickly making her way through the castle.

"Quit shooting at the babies, let's just get out of here," Lexi hissed at Van Helsing as he kept firing at the children of Dracula and the brides.

"They're heading for the town," Van Helsing yelled back at her.

"Well give me a gun or let's head to the town so we can help people," Lexi argued back at him. She just wanted to take off his hat and smack him in the face with it.

"Dracula," Anna's voice jolted both of them out of their argument. They looked up to see Dracula slowly walking towards them on the roof of the tower. He looked furious about Van Helsing shooting his children.

"Time to go," Lexi said and grabbed a grappling hook from Van Helsing's stuff. She shot the hook at a tree far away. Van Helsing stabbed Dracula with a silver stake, but Dracula just laughed at them.

"That will not kill me, Gabriel," Dracula hissed at Van Helsing, who gave him a confused look at the name.

"Well you heard the vampire, move," Lexi yelled and grabbed Anna and Van Helsing. The three used whatever they had on hand to zip line down the grappling hook and to safety. The ferocious growls of a werewolf made them look back to the castle. A werewolf was diving off the side of the tower after where they had just been zip lining.

"We must get back to the town and help Carl," Van Helsing ordered and the three rushed towards the town. They were not sure, if the werewolf would be on their heels or if it did not survive the fall. Lexi was worried to death about her friend, but strangely, things usually worked out in Tiffani's favor towards her survival.

"Wait," Anna started to say, but the ground giving away beneath them only turned her words into a scream of fear. She, Lexi, and Van Helsing fell with the falling ground. They ended up in some cave. New bruises were already forming on their bodies from the fall. However, the dampness in the cave made the pain fall onto the backburner as cold took over their bodies.

"Where are we?" Lexi said as she stood up with the help of Van Helsing.

"We're in some cave system," he said while making sure that she was all right. Slight warmth reached her cheeks at the concern and care he was showing for her.

"I'm fine, thank you," she said to him and he gave her a warm smile, which sent her heart into a faster rhythm.

"How are we going to get out of here?" Anna shouted over at them before the sound of deep breathing made all of them freeze. Van Helsing drew his gun and spun around quickly only to almost drop his gun in surprise. Lexi's jaw dropped at the large Frankenstein monster in front of her. His deathly pale skin and huge stature made her hope that he was not ready to rip them apart. He would not have an issue with tearing them to shreds if he was violent.

"The Frankenstein monster," Van Helsing said and he started talking with the monster. Lexi went to stand by Anna because she had a bad feeling for some reason. She took the crossbow with the stakes from Van Helsing before she went to stand by Anna. Anna gave her a confused look, but Lexi knew something was going to happen.

"Where the hell is the way out of here? I mean an Exit sign would totally be helpful right now or even some bread crumbs, something," Tiffani said growing aggravated at not being able to find the way out of the castle. The sound of crying brides did not help her stress level. "If I see either of those women I'm just hitting them to get out of my stress," she thought getting more aggravated by the second. She was not a patient person. She also wanted to use the stake that she had been holding the entire time she was trying to find a way out of the castle.

"I've been wondering where you were. Your friends ran away and left you here after they killed my young babies," Aleera's voice screamed behind Tiffani. The anguish in the woman's voice almost made Tiffani feel bad for her, but the bride was rude to her earlier so she did not care.

"Oh that's what was in those weird punching bags," Tiffani said thoughtfully even though she was smirking. She was a bit nervous keeping her back to the bride, but she had a plan.

"Insolent human," Aleera screeched and Tiffani wondered if the vampire was becoming her bat form.

"Well I didn't know what was in those slimy things. I mean, if you guys put up a sign or something, like babies sleeping or dead vampire babies in cocoons, please don't touch, then I would have left them alone," Tiffani said with a shrug hearing Aleera's unnecessary breathing deepen and quicken in pace.

"How dare you insult my children," Aleera roared and Tiffani knew from the sound of her voice that she had to be in her bat form. She was just surprised that Aleera had not tried to attack her yet.

"Well they were dead when I poked the cocoons, and they are dead now so they are not hearing my insults. Anyways, how would you show that many children equal affection? There is no way to escape showing favoritism to some out of the hundreds or even thousands of them," Tiffani said with a shrug. She was starting a countdown in her head and the stake was gripped firmly in front of her. She had hidden it in front of her when Aleera appeared behind her.

"Face me, or are you afraid of me?" Aleera growled and Tiffani heard her take a few steps towards her.

"I'm not afraid, why would I be afraid of a big bat that needs to learn how to adjust her attitude?" Tiffani said and smirked when she heard Aleera's feet leave the ground. She quickly spun around and slammed the stake into Aleera's heart.

Aleera's face was only inches away from Tiffani's face. The vampire's breath was icy as it huffed onto Tiffani's cheeks, which became cold at the feeling. Shock registered in Aleera's wide eyes. Anger and sorrow also shone through while the mouth full of gleaming fangs opened and closed as if gasping for a last breath of life.

"Who is an insolent human now?" Tiffani whispered before backing away from the vampire. An unearthly scream left the bride before she exploded into white ash.
