Hotel Transylvania: Johnny is THE BATMAN (Part 1)

Chapter 24

A few days later....
The Count woke up from his coffin in his room feeling sorrow. That's because it was the day of his special occasion with the love of his life, it's the day of his wedding anniversary with his late-wife, Martha Lubov-Dracula. As Dracula tiredly dresses himself up, he heard a knock on his door.

"Who is it?" Dracula asked. A familiar female voice answered his question.

"It's me, dad. Can I come in?" Mavis said behind the door.

"Of course, honey bat. You can come in. The door's open." Dracula quickly answered as Mavis entered his room while holding a tray.

"Rise and shine, daddy! I've brought breakfast for you to eat. Hope you like it." Mavis cheerfully said as she puts the tray on the table and removed the cover revealing the monster's traditional wormcake.

"Oh thank you so much my little poison berry!" Dracula cooed truly appreciating the breakfast Mavis brought for him. It always made him happy that his daughter would always cheered him up.

Dracula ate his breakfast but he wasn't really in the mood for excitement. That's the moment when Mavis noticed her father was looking all depressed and knew that something was bothering him.

"Are you alright, dad?" Mavis asked.

"Yes, dear. I'm quite alright." Dracula said while making a fake smile but Mavis knew better.

"Come on, dad. I know that something is bothering you. Now please tell me." Mavis calmly said as she gently puts her hand on Dracula's shoulder worriedly. It made Dracula smiled at how much Mavis really cared and loved him, it reminded him of Martha. Dracula sigh before he started to talk.

"Honey bat." Dracula softly said as he held both Mavis' hands. "You probably know that today is the anniversary of me and your mother's wedding. Usually we visit our old home every year to pay respect for your mother. It's also the times that how much I miss your mother and wishing she was with us right now." Dracula frowned.

"Aww, daddy." Mavis said hugging Dracula. "I miss mom too. I'm sure she doesn't want to see you all depressed in your wedding anniversary." Hearing Mavis' words, it made Dracula feel better again.

"You're right, Mavy. I shouldn't be all depressed and I would rather be happy to spend my time with my family." Dracula smiled at Mavis hugging her back.

"I also talked to Johnny earlier. He said they'll be coming along with us at our old house." Mavis explained.

"How very thoughtful of them!" Dracula exclaimed. He truly appreciated that Johnny and his family would be there for Dracula in times like this.

Later that night....
The passengers of the two hearses quietly sat on their respective seats waiting to arrive at their destination, the Castle Lubov. Everyone could only feel pain remembering that tragic night that Martha died. The humans didn't get to know Martha that much but all they knew is that she was a kind and wonderful mother and they feel sorry for Dracula and Mavis' loss.

A couple of minutes later, Dracula, Mavis, Frank, Eunice, Hank, Murray, Pedro, Wayne, Wanda, Wendy, Griffin, Johnny, Brett, Kent, Melly, and Alfred arrived at the ruins of Castle Lubov.

"The castle of Lady Lubov." Johnny whispered looking at the ruins of the castle. This was his second time being here at the castle.

"Have you been here before, Johnny?" Mavis asked surprisingly.

"Yeah right before I arrived at the hotel I got the chance to visit this place. I didn't knew she was your mother at that time." Johnny explained.

Just then, Brett, Kent, and Melly went closer to Mavis for comfort. The Loughrans can all relate to Mavis' pain because they also lost their parents before.
