The Gwy, Young Dracula series: War Torn.
A/N: This is the next one in The Gwy, Young Dracula series. You thought it was finished didn't you? You thought The Gwy, Young Dracula series: Gwynn's 16th was the last story in this series. Well it wasn't. There's more! Are you pleased about that? I know I've taken a long time to get this up and I'm sorry for that. I took a little break from this series to get my other stories done. So I am sorry for the delay but here we are now. The plot for this story is not my idea. I read someone else's story and had a few ideas from that. I can't remember the story or the author but thank you to them anyway. I'm not gonna tell you what it's about. I'm just gonna say that I had to borrow a time travelling coffin for this story. Ok. Thank you guys for being patient. I hope this will be ok for you. Oh and remember last time on this series Gwynn turned 16 and is now a full vampire, and a scary one at that. Will she be the same? Or will there be drastic changes to her personality? Also we find out where Gregg and Sarah have been all this time.
Disclaimer: I do not own the time travelling coffin or the idea of it. I do not own the world war two ideas. I do not own Young Dracula or its characters. I do not own the German, English or other armies. I do not own anything! I only own my dear Gwynnovere, Sarah and Gregg.

Previously on The Gwy, Young Dracula series: War Torn:
A bunch of rogue vampires are still on the loose and are working with Vlad.
A taste of human blood has made Vlad turn bad. Will they get him back?
They are all back in their own times.
Gwynn is hurt still but slowly healing.
George and Jeremy are trapped in the cave, being held hostage by the cave vampires who want their revenge.
Vlad is bad! What lengths will he go to? And how far will he go?
Vlad knows it was Ingrid and Bertrand that sent him and Gwynn back to the past.
Vlad and Bertrand fight over Gwynn and then disappear.
Vlad zoned Bertrand! He keeps him in his pocket!
Thank you to everyone who has reviewed, favourited, and supported this story and/or me so far!
And has Ingrid betrayed her family? Will she really work with the cave vampires?
A/N: Again, so so so so sorry for the delay. I got stuck at multiple various points and it took a long time to finish this. So, Gwynn's getting better, Vlad and Bertrand fought over Gwynn, Vlad shrunk Bertrand and trapped him in crystal, and it looks like Ingrid has betrayed everyone for her own purposes. Also, I'm sorry I haven't included Erin for a long time. She is still part of this series. I have certain plans for her for the future and I think my brain was trying to tell me that I'd already carried out those plans when I hadn't. So, sorry about that. I'll do my best to include her a bit more and remember that she is still in this story. Time to see what happens. Please do leave a review! Thanks! Love you all. Thank you to everyone who views my stories, adds me or any of my story's to alerts and favourites and everyone who reviews or PM's me! Thank you!

Chapter 14: Shit hits the fan
Gwynn was now all healed up, sitting with Count Dracula and Erin around the dining table.
Gwynn: So... I wonder where Vlad is right now.
Count: Yes. Quite. But don't worry. He'll return to us.
Gwynn: I hope you're right.
Count: My dear, I'm always right.
Gwynn smiled.
Gwynn: Yeah, he'll come back. And when he does, you realise when we get married, you'll be my father in law?
Count: Oh yes. Oh yes, I will, won't I? Does that mean I'll have that dreadful mother of yours as an in-law?
Gwynn smiled and chuckled lightly.
Gwynn: Afraid so.
Erin: Oh come on. She can't be that bad.
Gwynn: Trust me, she is.
Just then, Renfield came into the room with a tray of disgusting looking food. He set it down on the table in front of the Count.
Count: Ah! Blood Sausage! My favourite.
Gwynn and Erin looked at the food and rose an eyebrow. They both thought it looked rather unappetising.
Gwynn: Thanks Renfield.
Renfield: Ah. Of course, mistress Gwynn. I also may inform you that the meeting between the slayers is today. They wish to talk about the peaceful co-existence deal.
Gwynn sighed.
Gwynn: Ok. Thanks for letting me know. I'll have to sort something out.
Renfield: Of course. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go and sort my potion jars out.
Gwynn nodded and smiled.
Gwynn: See you later.
Count: Yes. Be gone, you ignorant buffoon.
Renfield nodded and left to go to his potion lab. Gwynn looked back at the Count and sighed.
Gwynn: The meeting. That's all we need. Vlad's not exactly in the right state of mind to go and convince the slayers he has everything under control. He doesn't even have himself under control.
Erin: Yes, it is a troublesome time. If they find out Vlad's not currently fit, he could be done for. We need to reassure them he's in control. Even if he's not, technically speaking.
Count: Perhaps I should go. I am know for my...
He flipped his hair.
Count: ... Charm.
Gwynn rose an eyebrow, looking unconvinced.
Gwynn: I don't think that's a good idea, given your history with Mina.
Count: Oh but I-
Gwynn: No. I mean it!
Count: Oh but-
Gwynn: Do I have to get Erin to put you in a UV cage so you'll stay away from her? Because I will!
Erin: And I'd be happy to do it.
Count: Oh fine! I'll stay away from her! You two and Vlad take all the fun out of things.
Gwynn: That's because we're the responsible ones. We'll go. We'll be the one to talk to the slayers.
Count: Very well.
Gwynn checked the time on her phone.
Gwynn: We should go. We're supposed to be there in ten minutes.
Count: Well goodbye and good luck.
Gwynn: Thanks. See ya.
Erin: Goodbye.
Gwynn and Erin then walked to the slayers guild to meet with the slayers.

AT THE MEETING PLACE
The meeting place was at the slayer's guild, in a closed of room. Gwynn and Erin got there with a minute to spare. Mina and Johnno were already there. Gwynn and Erin smiled and sat down opposite them.
Gwynn: Hi.
Johnno: Hi.
Mina: Where's Vlad?
Erin: He couldn't male it. What with being who he is, he's very busy.
Gwynn: So we've come in his place.
Mina: Very well. I trust he has informed you on everything.
Gwynn: He has.
Erin: I understand you're worried that the vampires have been getting out of hand.
Mina: Yes. Vampires have been biting humans still. Picking them off the streets.
Gwynn: I assure you we are doing everything in our power to control the situation. We are doing everything we can to make sure that this peaceful co-existence thing works.
Mina: What about the fact that some humans are still being bitten? Hmm? Or is that just collateral damage to you.
Erin: Collateral damage? No!
Gwynn: Of course, it's not collateral damage! We do care! And we are trying! But you must understand that vampires have lived this way for thousands and thousands of years. It is not going to change overnight. We are trying. We are doing the best we can do. Vampires are brought up this way. It's how they're raised. Raised to believe that it's ok to do the things they do, ok to bite people. Most vampires are raised to believe good things are bad and bad things are good. It's going to take a while to change that. And, sometimes, if you try and control them, it just makes them rebel more.
Erin leaned over to whisper to Gwynn.
Erin: Nicely done.
Gwynn nodded and whispered back.
Gwynn: Thanks.
Mina nodded.
Mina: Very well. Just as long as the situation is resolved. The co-existence deal will stand.
Gwynn: Thank you.
Erin: It's what's best for everybody.
Mina nodded again and left the room. Johnno stayed behind to talk to Erin and Gwynn.
Johnno: So what's really going on with Vlad?
Gwynn and Erin gave each other a look.
Gwynn and Erin: Nothing good.
They informed Johnno on everything that was going on and he promised to help them any way he could.

IN THE PAST
George, Jeremy and Carl were all tied up in the cave. Ingrid was talking to Dotty, Jenny, Kenneth and Jerry. Jerry was wearing a buttoned up navy cardigan over a white t-shirt. He paired it with black jeans and plain black loafers. Kenneth was wearing a loose dark grey cardigan over a black t-shirt paired with black jeans and grey loafers. Dotty was wearing a short black dress paired with black pumps. Her hair was curled and pushed to one side. Jenny was wearing a long-sleeved loose grey dress paired with bright pink wellie boots and a long black cardigan. Ingrid was wearing a black leather long-sleeved top with spikes, paired with leather leggings that also had spikes, and clunky black combat boots.
Ingrid: Are the prisoners secure?
Dotty: Indeed they are.
It had been almost a week since Ingrid had travelled back to the past with George. She had been working with the cave vampires to bring Gwynn back so they could have their revenge. Ingrid was slowly gaining their trust.
Ingrid: I think today's the day we put our plan into action.
Kenneth: Agreed.
Jenny: It's time for revenge.
Ingrid: I'll go get Gwynn.
Jerry: Wait a minute. Why do you get to go get her?
Ingrid: Well, the four of you can't stray too far from your pack or you'll lose control. They could easily overpower them. And taking that many vampires to the future could cause major complications. This is why I should go. I'm already from the future, so it won't cause any complications for me to go back and forth.
The four vampires just nodded.
Jenny: Makes sense.
Kenneth: Go do your thing.
Ingrid: Very well. I'll be taking the prisoners with me.
Dotty: What?! No way!
Ingrid: If I don't, how do I know you'll keep your end of the deal? How can I be sure you won't move base and take them with you? How can I be sure you won't betray me?
Jenny: Us, betray you? How do we know you won't betray us?
Ingrid: Oh please. You need me. We need each other if we're going to make this plan work.
The four vampires looked at each other, discussing their decision silently. Jerry stepped forward.
Jerry: Very well. You may go and fetch them.
Ingrid: Thank you.
Ingrid walked over to the room the prisoners were being held in. She untied them.
Ingrid: Come with me and stay quiet.
The soldiers looked at her warily, but nodded and did as she asked. She walked them out the front door. From the outside of the cave, you could see that someone had been building some kind of metal around it. It was Argentillium! There was an open gate at the gate entrance. Ingrid smile and closed and locked the gate.
Ingrid: Suckers.
She looked over to the soldiers.
Ingrid: You guys are free. Go back to base or whatever. They're not getting out of that for a long time.
They all nodded.
Carl: Thank you ma'am. We really appreciate all you've done for us.
Ingrid nodded and the soldiers left. Ingrid went back to the coffin and travelled back to her time.

Ingrid walked into the dining room of the Dracula residence at the same time as Gwynn and Erin returned from the meeting. The three of them and the Count sat down around the table.
Gwynn: Ingrid! You're back.
Erin: You were gone a while. I trust everything's alright?
Ingrid smiled at Erin in a way that was fake and sarcastic. Ingrid wasn't really a fan of Erin.
Ingrid: Of course.
Gwynn: You managed to get every done? Free the soldiers? Stop the cave vampires? Etc.?
Ingrid: Of course. I'm not incompetent. I can get a single simple task done.
Gwynn: Good.
Ingrid: And how are you feeling, Gwy?
Gwynn: All better. Thanks for asking.
Count: Speaking of, how'd the meeting with the slayers go?
Gwynn: Good, I think.
Erin: I think between the two of us, we managed to convince them we can make it work.
Count: Ah! Good. Good. A job well done.
Just then, Vlad came in with a crystal in his hand. He hissed, showing fangs, and placed it on the table.
Vlad: This used to be Bertrand. And if any of you cross me. If any of you try and 'save' me, I'll do a whole lot worse to you.
Erin stood up and grabbed his arm.
Erin: Vlad, please...
He hissed.
Vlad: Let go of me.
Erin shook her head and stood her ground.
Erin: No.
And then, in one sudden blur, it happened. It all happened so quickly. All the vampires in the room, and no-one even had a chance to stop it. He bit Erin. Erin held her neck in pain and collapsed to her knees. Gwynn flashed over to support her as Vlad flashed off. Erin's eyes went blood red and fangs protruded from her mouth.
Erin: Oh my god. No. No. I never wanted this!
Gwynn hugged Erin and held her there in her embrace.
Gwynn: Erin. Oh god... Erin. Look at me. It's going to be ok. I'll help you, I promise.
Erin looked her squarely in the eyes, and looked angry. She pushed Gwynn away and stood up. Gwynn slowly stood up, hesitant on what to do.
Erin: No. No. All of you here. Somebody could have done something.
Ingrid: Erin. He was too fast. And too powerful. There's no way we could have stopped him.
Erin: No! No! I don't believe that. All of you did this to me! I don't want to see any of you ever again! Especially not Vlad! This is the last you'll see of me.
She changed into a bat and flew off into the night.
Count: Well... she's certainly getting the hang of her new vampire powers.
Gwynn looked at Ingrid, looking worried.

LATER ON - THE ANNON RESIDENCE
Charlotte and Liam had gathered their family together in the living room for a meeting. Charlotte and Liam sat on the sofa, whilst Ross, Greg, Sarah and Grace sat on the floor, waiting in anticipation to hear what their parents had to say. Charlotte fiddled nervously with her nails and Liam avoided everybody's gaze.
Charlotte: Now, children. This may come as a shock, but... Your father and I are being transferred with our company... and...
She looked at Liam to finish her sentence for her.
Liam: And... The company is transferring to Italy. So... we're moving. To Italy.
The children stared at their parents with their mouths agape.
Gregg: WHAT?!
Sarah: We can't move to Italy!
Ross: Seriously, Italy?
Grace: Well, I think we should be happy for mummy and daddy.
Ross, Gregg and Sarah just glared at her, knowing she was just being a kiss-up. Most of the time she was a brat, but when she wasn't a brat, she was a kiss-up. They all turned their attention back to their parents, choosing to ignore Grace after sending her a glare. Gregg and Sarah turned to look at each other, panic on their faces. They started a whispered conversation.
Sarah: What about Vlad? And Gwynn?
Gregg: I don't know.
Ross: Do we have to move? Can't we stay here?
Charlotte: I am sorry children. But your father and I both have successful careers that cause us to move around a lot. You know that.
Ross seemed to mumble something under his breath, but it wasn't quite intelligible.
Charlotte: Our decision is final.
Liam: Pack your bags. We leave for Italy bright and early tomorrow morning.

LATER ON - IN THE WOODS
Gwynn: Vlad!
Vlad turned around, his fangs showing. They were in the woods, not too far from the school the Dracula's owned.
Vlad: What?
Gwynn shook her head, looking at him with disappointment in her eyes. They were watering slightly and you could see she was trying to fight back tears, not from sadness so much as horror.
Gwynn: You bit Erin...
Vlad: So?
Gwynn: She didn't want to be bitten, Vlad! She never wanted to be a vampire. You knew that! She's never going to trust any of us again! And now, you'll never see her again.
Vlad growled.
Vlad: Get off my case. You're not the boss of me!
Gwynn: No, I'm not. I'm not trying to be! I just want what's best for you. Because... one day, you're going to look back and regret this.
Vlad hissed.
Vlad: Not likely.
Gwynn: Don't pretend you don't care! I know you do!
Vlad: You don't know anything about me!
Gwynn: Don't I? I know that good or bad, you care about your family friends. Deep down. You just hide it. I know that you see yourself in two separate sides. But guess what, Vlad? Both sides are you! And until you learn to accept that, you'll continue to hurt the people you love. Your reflection isn't just a bad version of you Vlad. It's part of you. You need to learn to accept it. To be one with it. Because, if you fight it, this is what happens... Vlad, please...
Vlad hissed again. This time when he spoke, his voice was quiet with a hint of insecurity.
Vlad: You don't know anything...
In a flash, Vlad had dropped the crystal on the ground and watched as it smashed. Bertrand stood up, looking dazed and disoriented. He looked around.
Gwynn: Bertrand!
Bertrand: What-? Where-?
Faster than either of them could stop it, Vlad pulled a stake from his pocket, and staked Bertrand! Gwynn watched in horror, her mouth agape, as she saw him turn to ash. She covered her mouth in horror, starting to cry, and sank to her knee's next to his ashes. She couldn't take her eyes off of them.
Gwynn: What- What have you done?
Vlad blinked, his fangs retracting. He dropped the stake out of shock. Tears formed in his eyes too, as he too sank down next to Bertrand's ashes, his expression full of guilt and sorrow.
Vlad: Oh god...
