Chapter 16: A different Vlad
Marie saw him, her biological father sitting there like nothing was wrong and reacted. Black rings flew up and down her body as her skin turned green, her eyes became completely red, her hair turned black, and her clothes became a white jumpsuit with black belt, boots, and gloves and a white cape. Vlad read her intentions and went Ghost himself just as Marie grabbed him and intangibly tackled him out of the dorm. Vlad blasted her off of him and said, "What is the meaning of this?!" "This is for every evil thing you have ever done!" Marie shouted and blasted at him with her lightning. Vlad blocked it only to be attacked from behind when Marie used her super-speed and punched him into the air. She blasted lightning again, which hit home. Vlad went intangible as Marie tried to kick him, letting her pass through him before sending a ghost ray that Marie effortlessly dodged.
Marie powered up her lightning just as Vlad blasted another ghost ray. "STOP!" Nathan yelled, just as he was hit by both attacks. "NATHAN!" "NATHANIEL!" Marie and Vlad screamed as he was knocked unconscious and began to fall. Vlad and Marie raced to save him; Marie got to him first and held him up. "LET GO OF HIM!" Vlad threatened her. Marie's eyes glowed as electricity threatened to leave her eyes and blast Vlad but she kept it from escaping, barely. Marie ignored her and Nathan's biological father and flew Nathan into his dorm room and set him down on his bed. Vlad shoved her aside and said, "Nathaniel, please, get up." Marie glared at him and grabbed him, "Don't try acting like you care now, you bastard!"
Vlad pushed her off, "This is your fault, whoever you are!" Vlad yelled back. "This is all on your head, starting with the day you returned to Earth!" Marie yelled back, lightning glowing in her hands. Vlad's hands glowed with ectoplasmic energy as he got ready to fight again before they heard Nathan yell, "Stop it now, damn it!" Marie and Vlad turned to see Nathan glaring at them. Vlad and Marie let go of their built up energies and Vlad said, "Who is this girl? She is half ghost, and has the same look as us, but she is no relative of mine." Marie became human again and said, "I'm your daughter, from another dimension." Vlad looked at her like she was crazy, but Nathan nodded, "It's true."
Vlad turned human himself and asked, "How?" Marie glared at him as she said, "In my reality, it took you nine years to come back to Earth after the Disasteroid Incident. When you got back, you rebuilt your fortune by stealing and paid assassination. And just for your own enjoyment, you raped seventy six women. My Mother was one of them, and I'm the result." Marie continued to stare daggers at Vlad the whole time she said this, gaining a dark joy at how horrified he looked. "You made me watch a video of my conception," Marie finished, and Nathan turned pale as he remembered seeing that along with her, and Vlad looked like he was about to throw up.
"I-I don't know what to say. He, I, that man isn't me, what he did was unforgivable. But I'm not him," Vlad managed to say. "You're still the man who cloned a girl then rejected her love, and held the world hostage," Marie pointed out, unwilling to let go of her hatred. Vlad looked down and said, "That was one of the worst mistakes I ever made in my life." Vlad then got up and said, "Nathaniel, I just wanted to come and see how you were doing. Obviously, you are doing well," then he got up and left. Two minutes later Rodney came in and said, "I just saw Nikolas Matthews pass by, what was he doing here?"
