Chapter 26- Start of a war.

'What?!?! Will!!!" Ingrid yelled after Will who was walking away. She pushed Bertrand away. And ran after Will. "Please!! He was the one who kissed me!! not the other way around!!"

"You really expect me to believe that?" Will snarled.

"Yes." Ingrid was becoming more frustrated as each second passed.

Will looked at Ingrid's hand. To check if she had the engagement ring. She did. Maybe the couple shouldn't have hid this. It was the one thing everyone should know. And it would mark Ingrid's as 'His'. "It's still off." He said stubbornly.

"WILL!!!" yelled Ingrid. Why did this happen. Oh right. She seemed 'attractive' to two vampires. She literally felt like her heart was bring ripped apart. She had confused feelings... For both of them.

Will walked away, speeding away. To a random place.

Ingrid stomped her feet on the ground. "No! Just no!" She stormed to where Bertrand was. "Look. I like you. As a friend. BUT /YOU/ JUST RUINED /MY/ MARRIAGE! MY LIFE!!" She slapped Bertrand then stormed away.

The Count paced the throne room. "They're going to find out."

"Find out what?" Asked Bertrand. He had his suspicious on what Count Dracula was referring to. Of course. Vlad and Erin.

"Well... You see... The Draculas made a pact with the Nobles before Erin's parents 'died'. You see... Gwen was bitten. When she was pregnant with Erin AND Ryan. What does that make them?"

"But..." Now Bertrand was confused. "They're human. Till three years ago."

"Vlad completed the process. Erin had breather genes all these years. The vampiric genes were dormant until... Vlad bit her. And we were supposed to take care of Erin and Ryan if Gwen and Anthony died! But the slayers got to them before us. The same applied for Ryan. But Erin's that powerful because she's Vlad's first bite but mix that with the dormant vampiric genes... She is so damn powerful."

"But hang on!! Aren't they're alive? And that's interesting..."

"No. That was just a delusion and longing of Erin's."

"So you basically saying Ryan's and Erin's whole life was a lie?'

"Yep. Apparently... Yes. They were basically supposed to grow up with... Ingrid and Vlad."

"So it was destiny for those two to marry one day...?" Bertrand was getting more and more confused as each second passed.

'Yes. And destiny for them to meet. I never realized that was ACTUALLY the Erin and Ryan I was supposed to raise."

"Or it was your Dracula pride which got in the way. Again."

"What are you accusing me of?"

"Well... You were too lazy to get them."

"I tried!! But the slayers took them away..."

"So you're saying Erin was a vampire. And the slayers basically turned her against her /own/ kind?"

"Yep."

"And..." Bertrand was fitting all the puzzle pieces together. "Oh! Gwen and Anthony wanted their kids to grow up in the world they accidentally forced them into... Vampire. And didn't the name Erin and Ryan Noble ring a bell?!?!?"

"No. It didn't actually. Now shoo."

Bertrand glared at the Count before speeding away.

Vlad and Erin stood by each other in the abandoned building.

Olga sped in front of them. "Why did you call me? If its to stake me. Forget it. You both don't have the guts..."

"Actually. We were wondering if we could have a truce?" Vlad wrapped one arm around Erin's waist. He hated this. He was only doing it for Erin and /his/ baby.

"In your dreams garlic-munchers!" Olga smirked.

Erin had a startled look on her face. As well as Vlad.

"/You/ two are a huge roadblock, as well as the brats, in my quest for power! The title 'Chosen One' belongs to /me/!"

Vlad glared at Olga. "This is war."

"Yes. Indeed... It's going to be my pleasure to dust you all. I will enjoy seeing you watching Erin turning to dust." Olga's smirk widened.

Erin stepped closer to Vlad. As if in fear. She couldn't use her abilities at the moment because of pregnancy. Well she couldn't use it without effecting the child's health.

Vlad wrapped both of his arms around Erin. As a gesture to say 'I will always protect her.'

Olga smirked. She knew what to do to get through to them. She sped away. After saying five words which shook the couple to the bone. "You'll be dust by dawn."

__________________________

Vlad and Erin was pretty sure they would be able to deal with the hoard of vampires which would be out to kill them. They stood in the middle of the empty room. If they both were breathers. Their heart-rate would be extremely high.

Their high-sensitive hearing picked up footsteps. Then seconds later they saw fifteen stakes being thrown at them.

They quickly entered another room. Slamming the door.

This room was dimly lit by a single light bulb. They darted to the farthest corner.

Vlad stared at Erin. They both made a silent agreement.

"No!" Erin whispered. Vlad couldn't do that.

"Erin..." Vlad whispered. He was doing this for /his/ family. It was a risk he was willing to take. For the safety of his family. And Erin. "Sorry."

Erin's eyes welled up with tears. She couldn't lose him. She made no effort to wipe the tears away. "Sorry... Won't... Cut it. We stick together, got that?"

"Erin. It's dangerous!!" Vlad voice became desperate. He wanted Erin safe...

"Look out!" Erin yelled as a stake got thrown at the two. She sped in front of him. Ignoring the pain shooting through her body. The stake got caught mid-air with telekinesis. Erin focused on it.

Vlad wrapped his arms around Erin. "Stop." He wasn't letting Erin risk her life for him.

"No." Erin said stubbornly.

"I'm not having you risk your life for me!! JUST GO!" Vlad snarled. "I swear to god I /will/ lock you up where you wouldn't see the lights of the day! If that's what it takes to keep you safe."

"You do that!! But remember this Vlad!! I can't go into the light without burning! After /you/ killed me!!"

Vlad looked down. Feeling guilty. Really? Erin just had to use that against him. Well luckily for her it worked.

"Don't worry about it okay. After all I was 'dying'. Lets kick some vampire butt."

"Yea." Vlad muttered. He checked their surroundings to check if they weren't about to die. He grabbed Erin's wrist. He really didn't want to fight. He sped out of the building. With Erin. He wasn't confident about the chances him and a pregnant Erin beating hoards of vampires.

___________________________

They entered the throne room. Erin was so close to kicking Vlad. This made them look like cowards.

The Count clapped his hand slowly. " so you're back. Did it work?"

"Uh.... Long story short.... Olga declared a war." Vlad slowly shuffled out of the room.

"WHAT?!?"

"Yea. I know." Erin muttered.

Ingrid walked in. "Guess what? ERIN IS GOING TO MISCARRY!"

Everyone stared at her.

"Excuse me sis. But how is that good news?" Vlad had a bitter look on his face.

Erin glared at everyone. "Is this some sort of sick joke?" She said before storming out of the room.

"Now you've done it." Vlad folded his arms.

They suddenly heard a crash followed by a bang.

Then they heard a yelp of pain.

From Wolfie and the twins.

The war officially started.
