CHAPTER 6

Back with Marcus, he stars hearing hunters talking nearby of his castle, so he sends some of his soldiers that were still alive to kill those hunters. Then he approached Valmir.

"Valmir, we need to talk!! In private!!" Said Marcus seriously.

"Yes, my prince!" She replied.

Both of them enter in Marcus Chamber and start arguing about how they could stop William and Bloodmir from this nightmare.

"Look Valmir we need to do something quickly before William does another terrible thing, so I suggest that you start summoning them," Marcus suggests.

"I know my prince, but we first need to get Edward here." Said Valmir seriously, so Marcus would understand that Edward is important to summon them.

Then a vampire working with Marcus enters the chamber.

"Oh! Sorry my prince and lady Valmir, we finish killing the hunters that were nearby." Said the vampire.

"Perfect then!! Could you excuse us." Said Marcus.

"Of course, my prince." Replied the vampire.

The vampire left the chamber and Marcus and Valmir were looking at each other. Marcus approached Valmir and he says to her ear that if he doesn't come, she has to summon them, then Valmir says to him that she doesn't remember the rune to summon them that's why they need Edward.

Back with John and Conor, they both wake up in an old house and then someone appeared from the shadows and says to them.

"You two are really lucky that I was there." Said the mysterious man. He was old, you can say that he looks like he had 61 years old, he has white hair and brown eyes.

"Thanks, sir for saving us." Said John thanking the new mysterious man for saving their lives.

"You know old man after all this time I thought that you were killed by some werewolf or something, haha." Said Conor enjoying himself.

"Hahaha you haven't changed a bit Conor, just so you know I might be old, but I know how to fight. So, who is this young man in here, you know if I would guess I would say that you have 26 years old, boy?" Said the mysterious man very intrigued to know John.

"Actually, I'm 29, sir! If you don't mind if I ask, who are you?" Ask John intrigued too to know who he is.

"Aren't you going to tell him?" Said the mysterious man talking to Conor.

"He is the one we are looking for. You know when prince Marcus sent us to look for you, I thought he was out of his mind because I thought you were dead." Replied Conor.

"Oh but no hunter and werewolf can kill me that easily. Hahaha. Well let me introduce myself, my name is Edward, Edward Reed." Said Edward introducing himself to John.

"A pleasure to meet you, sir." Replied John.

"Oh no! Quite the contrary, it's a pleasure to meet you, sir. So, what's your name young man?" Ask Edward.

"My name it's John Brown and I am a doctor." Said John introducing himself.

"A doctor!? Hahaha. I didn't expect that. So, tell me, Young Doctor, how long have you been a vampire." Said Edward looking at him into his eyes.

"How did you...." John got interrupted by Edward.

"Oh, come, young doctor, I know that you are a newborn. Don't be surprised."

"How can you tell!!?" Said John very concern about it.

"Experience, I guess. Hahaha."

"Edward! Prince Marcus wants to see you, we need to go. Now!!!" Said Conor with a hurry.

"No! Wait, we can't go yet. I need to see my family, they should be worry that I never came."

"Why do you need to see your family right now exactly, Young doctor?" Said Edward looking at him with distrust.

"It's a family matter." Answer John.

"What family matter?" Said Edward trying to keep digging into John's truth.

"Look we don't have the bloody time for this. We can discuss it later back in the castle." Said Conor trying to hurry up the others.

"No, wait! My sister it's going to get married two days from now, so we were supposed to all get in my parents' house to celebrate, I even buy her a clock." Answer John, finally revealing the truth about his family matter.

"Well young doctor, we can't go." Said, Edward.

"And why is that?" Ask Conor.

"The sun it's about to come out," Edward answers looking at Conor serious.

"If we go now we might..." Conor got interrupted by Edward.

"The Castle is too far away from the city, we will never make it in time, our only option it's to wait." Said, Edward.

Back with Marcus and Valmir, both of them start getting concerned that they haven't come back yet and that the sun it's about to come out.

"Valmir!" Call's out loud Marcus.

"Yes, my prince!" Replied Valmir.

"In the meanwhile, we wait for them you should repair the castle. I don't want my father to come and see all this mess." Said Marcus worried that his father finds out that the two brothers are making such a mess.

"Of course, my prince!" Said Valmir understanding Marcus's problem.

Valmir and the other witches were repairing the castle with their magic, lifting pieces of rock and putting them back together.

Back with John, Conor, and Edward, the three of them were waiting for the sun to go down and they were talking.

"So, Conor why those the prince summons me?" Said Edward trying to figure out why prince Marcus summon him.

"He needs your help, after all, you are the strongest vampire we know."

"The strongest vampire?!!" Said John's surprise.

"That's right! He was the second one of being bitten." Said Conor.

"I beg your pardon! I think I don't fully understand?"

"Look what Conor it's trying to say it's that I was the second one of being bitten by Dracula, the first one was Lord Victor Cornivous, he was the first one being "transform" by Dracula and believe me, young doctor, Lord Victor it's really strong."

"WOW!! I..." John got interrupted by Edward.

"Which reminds me Conor, where is Lord Victor? Why didn't he summon me?"

"I don't know where he is, he left the castle, and no one knows where he is."

"I do. Prince Marcus said to me that he went to Egypt trying to look for or fighting something called "The Mummy"." Said, John

"The Mummy?" Said Conor not understanding what John is saying.

"Oh, no old friend." Said Edward worried.

"What? What happened?" Ask John.

"He is not looking to fight The Mummy; he is looking for the mummy's magic." Said Edward very serious and with a worried face.

"For what?" Ask Conor.

"So, he can revive his wife."

"His wife!!" Said John not understanding what Edward is saying.

"That's right, young doctor, this is not the first time he does this, the first time he left me in charge of the castle when the two princes were young, so he could look for this doctor or scientist called "Victor Frankenstein"."

"Victor Frankenstein!!?" Said John very surprised to hear that name.

"That's right, he heard that this mad doctor or scientist made a living thing with different parts of the human body. They call that thing "the Frankenstein's Monster", but we call it Frankenstein."

"Why!?" Conor asks intrigued that they only call it Frankenstein instead of Frankenstein's monster.

"Oh, believe me, Conor! I once encounter that thing, he hates to be called a monster, I try to kill it once, but in the end, I almost got killed, if it wouldn't be for Lord Victor I would it be dead. So, now Lord Victor and I, we call it just Frankenstein."

"Another legend that I thought didn't exist!! Conor I have a question." Said, John.

"Huh, What?" Said Conor paying attention to John.

"Why did prince Marcus seem upset when I told him I was saved from that lady?" Said John eager to know why.

"Isn't that obvious? I was the one guarding you John." Said Conor like if it was very logical.

"But still he seems, upset when he told me she was a general from Dracula."

"A general from Dracula!! So, that means that it could be a sign of the Great War!!" Said Edward extremely concern and stun about what John said.

"A sign of what!!?" Ask John with confusion.

Then the three of them heard some hunters entering the house that they were in.

"Shut up! We will discuss that later! Now we need to kill these bastards." Said Edward with anger.

Back with Marcus and Valmir, Valmir finishes right in time to repair the castle before the sun came up. Then Marcus gets out of his chamber and speaks to everyone in there.

"Listen, everyone! My brother declared war on us! And then he disrespects us by entering our house like that and attack us! We will not tolerate this thing again! We won't kill him and his followers!" Said Marcus looking at Valmir. "We won't! But we will stop them! That's why I am going to summon our greatest defense to stop William and his followers from all this madness!"

Everyone yells "Yeah!!!" With pride and start preparing to stop William, getting their swords ready to fight.
