It has been over ten years since my mother Serenity went missing. My father tells me it was by a demon and we are both still on the hunt for her to this day.

I was only seven when she disappeared. From what my father tells me he was out getting some kind of list from the order though he says they no longer worked for them.

I remember my mother though. Her long red hair her heavenly voice and her emerald eyes that calmed me down whenever I was sad.

Now that I am older we can continue our search to the place my father believes she was taken. Transylvania. I had never been there before and had only heard stories of it.

My name is Trinity, I am the only child of Gabriel Van Helsing and Serenity.

"The carriage is ready to go Trinity. We need to leave now." my father tells me as he opens the door to my room.

"Alright, I just finished packing my bag." I hand it to him and he just stares at me. "Dad? You alright?"

"When I look at you I swear I am looking at your mother." he tells me as he takes the bag.

"We'll find her dad. I promise you have me now. If anyone can find her its us." I tell him as we walk to the carriage and Carl pops his head out.

"Carl is coming just as a helper." Dad tells me.

"What help? bait?" I ask getting into the carriage.

"Could be useful." Dad says getting into the carriage.

"Van Helsing!" Carl yelps out.

The journey is long and horrible. First the carriage, then the boat and another carriage and we finally arrive in the small town. We step out of the carriage and see few people.

"Van Helsing does it seem the population has decreased since the last time we were here?" Carl asks.

"Yes, and something tells me that is not a good sign." he replies as he lowers the brim of his hat.

"Well where do we start?" I ask them.

"The castle is up that way. We can find out more if we can get some people to talk." he tells me.

I suddenly grab a towns person.

"Found someone." I tell him.

"She does have your people skills does she not?" Carl says with a nervous laugh.

"Are they here? Is Dracula back with his brides?" he asks the towns person.

The man stays silent as he looks behind Van Helsing and his eyes get bigger and bigger. I turn around to see what he is looking at when I see winged creatures coming our way.

"What in the world are those?" I ask pointing to the creatures.

Carl looks over as my father turns around.

"Vampires!" the town man calls out.

Van Helsing drops the man and the man runs off. Carl hands my dad some kind of odd gun weapon and hands me a sword.

"Oh really he gets a gun and I get a sword?" I ask him angry.

"The sword is blessed with holy water. Do your best." Carl says as he runs to the safety of the church.

The vampires come down and somehow turn back into human. It turns out there are three women before us.

"Sister, fresh new meat. The master will be so pleased we grow tired of the country folk." one of them says to the others as they laugh.

"You will have no new blood on your lips without a fight." I yell as at them.

One bride starts to look at me odd.

"Sisters, look at this one. Does she not look like the master's favorite?" the first one says as she circle me.

"She looks just like her, maybe a sister or cousin perhaps?" the second one says.

"Take her to the master, ask him what he wants us to do with her." the third one says as the first girl knocks dad away from me.

"Dad!" I yell out as the other two brides gang up on me.

"Don't worry little one, we wont hurt you yet." the second brides says with a wicked smile.

I hold the sword up about to slash her when the third grabs my wrist.

"That's not very nice." the third one says knocking my sword away.

"I'll take her to the master." the second one says as she knocks me out and takes off with me.

"Trinity!" Carl yells out.

I awake alone in a cold dark room. I feel my face where that horrible thing hit me. I slowly stand up and feel around my waist for my sword only to find it is gone.

"Dumb whore took my sword." I say to myself as I lift my head and look around the large room. "Where the hell am I?"

"Castle Dracula." I hear a male voice say as I look around for it.

"Who are you?!" I yell out to the room.

"Your father has told you stories of me I am sure though I must admit I did know of your presence until my brides told me you were here." the voice continues as I continue to search the room for the source.

"Then come out and show yourself." I tell the voice.

The man slowly walks forward out of the fireplace. He was tall with long black hair that was pulled back. He looked like a normal man but I knew that looks could be deceiving.

"Tell me your name child." he asks me.

"You tell me yours first." I request.

"You would know me as Dracula." he says as he slightly bows.

"Count Dracula? The same man whole stole my mother?!" I yell at him.

"Ah stole? No my dear she came quite willingly, she has never left my side these past ten years. Unlike your father I was able to keep her with me." Dracula says as he looks me up and down. "You do have a striking resemblance to her though. You are your mother's daughter."

"Where is she?!" I demand.

"You wish to see her?" he asks.

"Why else would I be looking for her here?" I yell at him.

"As you wish, right this way." Dracula says walking to the door.

I reluctantly follow him to a colder part of the castle. I didn't think it was possible to be any colder. We walk into a silent room and in the center I see a tall cylinder full of water and inside of it there was my mother.

"What have you done to her?" I yell at him as I run to the cylinder and put my hand against the glass.

"Your mother is still alive child but let's just saying I am rewriting a few of her memories." he says with a laugh.

"Why? she was fine the way she was you monster!" I yell at him.

"Monster? That is one of the nicer things you have been called my dear." I hear a woman say as she walks forward.

She wasn't one of the brides you could tell that just from the way she was dressed.

"You must be Trinity, the daughter of Gabriel and Serenity. I suppose you are wanting to know who I am? I am Adela the original wife of Vlad." she says with a wicked grin.

"I don't care who or what you are? I want my mother." I yell at them.

"Well unless you can figure out how to break that glass you are wasting you time." Adela tells me.

I look up trying to find a weakness in the glass. It looks pretty sturdy. I look around the room and see the torch holders are quite sharp.

"Why do you want my mother? Her blood killed you the last time." I tell Dracula.

"Only for a few years." he says with a smart smirk on his face.

"Guess they should have added more blood and less metal." I tell him as I slowly make my way over to the torch.

"Trinity, just as beautiful as your mother. Do you have the same strong will as her?" he asks me.

I finally reach the wall where the torch it. "You bet I do." I tell him as I grab the torch holder and pull a sharp piece of it from the wall and run to the glass. I shove the shard into the glass and watch as a spider web crack appears in it.

"You fool! What have you done?!" he asks me.

The glass finally breaks and water comes pouring out along with my mother's body. I run over and pick her up.

"Mom" I ask as I hold her.

She doesn't move for a few moments then she starts to stir. She looks up at me and smiles.

"Trinity." she says as we hear yelling the in background.

"We got to get out of here." I tell her as I help her to her feet.

"Your father? where is he?" she asks me as my father as usual busts in the door a few moments late.

"Adela find the brides, we must make other plans." Dracula says as he walks forward to us

"Stay back!" Van Helsing yells at him.

"Gabriel, time after time and here we are again." Dracula says as he walks my father to the a window.

"Must we always fight and kill one another time after time? You kill me, I kill you it always ends the same." he tells him.

"Then lets add something new to it." I say to Dracula as I kick him out the window.
