I only own my OCs, I do not own Tess, Bentley, Qwark, Carmelita, or any Van Helsing characters.
Taylor and Van Helsing soon climbed up the tower and found Frank strapped. Taylor began to turn the wheel to so Van Helsing will free him. Frank sees them, and asked, "What are you two doing? You must find the cure!"
"Our friends are doing it for us," Taylor said.
"Friends?" Frank asked.
"Yes," Van Helsing replied, looks at him, and asked "You want one?" He looks at straps, and said, "I cannot unscrew the bolts," he looks at Frank, and said, "This is gonna hurt."
"I am accustomed to pain," Frank said.
"Let's you know you're alive," Van Helsing said, and rips the strap off, causing Frank to scream.
"Oh, that's worse than ripping off a band-aid, if they were invented," Taylor muttered, but soon looked and saw a flash of lighting, causing her to grab Van Helsing and shout, "Van Helsing look out!"
The lightning struck, hitting Frank, causing a huge pulse of energy, which shoots downward.
The pulse goes down the lab, causing explosions, making Nosfearatu use his warlock powers to save the dwerger as they were jumping and flying.
Dracula moves and says while moving up his arms, "Give me life!"
The pulse moves all the way to the lobby, causing the eggs to move.
Carmelita's fur was all stuck up, and Chiyo even said, "So it's starting."
Every dwerger were falling, but Nosfearatu keeps on saving them. Dracula then said, "One more bolt, Nosfearatu, and my children will live."
"Yeah, but ve've got to make sure not to lose some dverger vhile ve're at it!" Nosfearatu replied, he looks up, and said, "Dracula, ve've got company." Dracula looks up and sees Taylor and Van Helsing trying to free Frank. Enraged by this, causing Nosfearatu to say, "Uh oh, they're in trouble." Dracula soon turns into his demonic form while screeching, flies off.
"You're almost out, my friend," Van Helsing said continuing to unstrap him.
Taylor notices something, and said, "Van Helsing! Vampire!"
Van Helsing looks, but too late, for Dracula hits him, causing him to fall down, Taylor however went down to join him.
But not before seeing Frank trying to get out, but was still strapped, but then lightning struck him again, causing another pulse.
The vampire bats were all hatching, with Qwark and Carmelita shooting them. Chiyo however grabbed five of them and opened her mouth to bite them.
The pulse caused the castle to shake, and eventually hit the woman as well, she soon opens her eyes and moan. "SHE LIVES!" Victoria shouts.
Suddenly some loose debris shook and began to fall, Boris looked at it is falling toward Lupe, causing him to say, "Lupe, lookout!"
He pushed her out of the way. However, Boris wasn't so lucky, he was then crushed. This caused Velkan to say, "Father! NOOOOOO!" Both him and Lupe changed into their werewolf forms and began to dig him out.
Once he was found, she felt a pulse, and said, "He's alive, but not for long, I am sorry, Velkan."
Seeing Van Helsing fall, Nosfearatu said, "Looks like that's got to hurt," he soon notices the Dark Crystal that Dracula had, and it was failing, until its power was gone completely. "Someone is dying, meaning Dracula has broken the oath of the Fear Clan, but then felt something, as if someone was going to die. He then went off.
Taylor watches as the shock eventually broke the last strap, freeing Frank, causing him to fly off, she knew Frank would need help, but before she could help him, she felt a vibration on her goggles, and the diamond on her staff glowed, she puts on the goggles and sees what in the diamond.
She sees Anna running at a giant black werewolf, which pounced at her. The wolf had something in it, a syringe by the looks of it, and notices Anna.
Carl was there too and said to his shock, "She's dead."
The image then faded.
Taylor knew Anna will die, she knows she had to do something, but then remembers she has an ace in her hole, the Extra Chance from when she was in Neurosis's lair, though despite it is limited, she hasn't used it much. She decides a strategy to save Anna, so she went down to the lab using her Surface Walker.
Nosfearatu was flying with his abilities, and watches as Frank was falling, but was grabbing onto cables, but slipping off of them. He then grabbed one and notices some small sparks on the bridge.
That spark was Igor still chasing Bentley and Carl, which Nosfearatu watches as well.
On the cable, Frank watches as it breaks, and he swings down to the bridge.
Nosfearatu watches as well, but then Bentley sees Frank swinging down, catching another cable in the process, the cable skimming through the bridge, and shouts, "Duck!" Bentley then withdrew into his shell while Carl ducks. Igor however wasn't so lucky as he was flung down off the bridge as Frank was secured hanging for dear life.
Igor screams as he plummets down to his death, however his plummet was stopped, and noticed Nosfearatu. The fearpire then said, "You know, I alvays vanted an assistant, and a hunchback no less, since Dracula has failed to prevent casualties," Igor was shocked, as Nosfearatu asked, "Vell, you vish to join me, Igor?"
Igor then replied, "I will be at your service, new master."
"A vise decision," Nosfearatu said, he opened a portal below Igor and said, "This portal vill take you to vhere Fear Clan member number two is, tell him I sent him, and he vill take you to a place to hide for the time being."
"Of course, new master," Igor replied, and floats down into the portal.
Once it closed, Nosfearatu said, "Now to get the dverger as vell," and flies off.
Back at where the cure was, Anna and Tess keep their eyes peeled for Aleera. Tess hears a hiss, but she knows Aleera was taunting them, watching them. The turned when they heard a cackle, but then, despite being dark, Tess can see Aleera looking at her nails, causing her to say, "Anna, look out!"
Anna looks and Aleera slaps, knocking both Anna and Tess down.
On the bridge, Frank continues to hang with his dear life. Bentley and Carl look and him, then the former notice an action, and said, "He's slipping!"
"Help! Help me!" Frank begs.
"But you're supposed to die!" Carl said.
"Carl!" Bentley scolds.
Frank then said, "I want to live!"
Carl thinks then said, "All right!" Carl looks around and thinks of something.
Meanwhile, Anna was lying down, while Tess tries to her and saying, "Come on, Anna, get up!"
However, Aleera grabs Anna by the throat, causing the latter to gasp, while the former said, "Be happy in the knowledge," she then turns into her demon form and flaps her wings as she continues, "that I shall weep over your dead body," she then looks at Tess and said, "Then I will have the little rat as well."
Tess was shocked, but disgusted as Aleera licks Anna and was ready to bite her.
At the bridge, Carl then said, "Hang on!" he and Bentley then push the big torch next to them as Carl explains, "We'll swing you loose!"
"Push, Carl, push!" Bentley said.
The torch was pushed, causing to fall and Frank begins to swing again towards a window.
Just as Aleera was about to bite Anna, Frank came bursting through a window, knocking the vampire down, dropping Anna as well.
Tess looks and asks, "Anna, are you alright?"
