The Youngest Valerious

2. Warewolf and The Frankenstein Monster

An hour later, Van Helsing was in the bar talking to Annabelle even though he wasn't drinking anymore. Anna woke up and was looking around for him until she ran into her brother and realized he was a warewolf. She screamed and Van Helsing looked in the direction it came from. "I think your mother's in trouble." He said to Annabelle and the two ran off to find Anna in the armory looking shocked and crying. Van Helsing shot at the warewolf knowing who it was and Velken jumped out the window. "Anna! Are you alright? Anna!" He said shaking her shoulders then turning to open the door and go after Velken.

Anna just stood frozen in place and Carl ran in. "Why does it smell like wet dog in here?"

"Warewolf!" Van Helsing said.

"Oh. Right. You'll be needing silver bullets then." He said tossing him the said bullets.

"Very good, Carl." Van Helsing replied putting them in his gun and running out the door to find Velken.

Annabelle ran to her mom. "Mama! Mama!" She said pulling on her pant leg.

Anna snapped out of it and realized what was going on. "Annabelle, stay here. Carl, take care of her!" She said grabbing her cloak and heading out to follow Van Helsing.

Annabelle looked at Carl and walked over to him. "Who was the warewolf?"

"I'm not positive, but going by your mother's shocked state, I would say it was your Uncle."

Annabelle's eyes widened. "Uncle Velken's a warewolf?"

"I believe he is, Little One."

"NO!" She yelled and started to cry. She hugged Carl and he picked her up.

"It's gonna be alright, Annabelle. How would you like to help me in the tower?"

She wiped her eyes and nodded.

The next morning, Gabriel Van Helsing and Anna got home. They found the Frankenstein monster and are going to take him to Rome. Gabriel looks at Anna. "Stay here and watch the carriages. I'm gonna go get Carl and Annabelle."

"Go."

Gabriel ran inside and got Annabelle from her room. Then quickly grabbed Carl and started explaining what the plan was as they walked back towards the carriages. "Now whatever you do, Carl, don't stare at him." Gabriel said opening the carriage door.

Carl leaned against the side wide-eyed. "I'm staring at him. Is that a man?!"

Gabriel pushed him in the carriage and handed Annabelle to him. "Actually, it's seven men. Parts of them anyway." He said and closed the door.

Anna faced him. "Nothing is faster than Transylvanian horses. Not even a warewolf. Anything else, you're on your own." She said giving him a slight smirk and playfully hitting his arm. She then got on the carriage front grabbing the reigns.

Gabriel watched her and slightly smiled. Then he went to his own carriage which was a decoy and the two sped off.
