Walking to Father Van Moore's house front door, I walk in with the house key and I see Father Van Moore and Ian fighting and all I see dear Father doing is holding a gun and pointing it at Ian. Ian had a split lip and baring his fangs at him. I can tell, this is bullshit with what Ian is doing and he knows how to piss Father Van Moore off.
"You are such a jackass for this Ian, you better not threaten my daughters again, I am in a good enough mood to give you quick death, what do you think about that, you bloodsucker?" he says with a cold tone to his voice. Ian gets up, he straightens himself out and breathes with the scent of rage and the blood of innocent humans that could have been either turned into vampires or just drained of blood to death. Somethings never change with Ian, never have I ever seen this kind of monster…never. Sighing in irritation, I finally think of what to do and who to summon.
"Father transfer us to your office, I think we should summon him; I feel as this man I am thinking of can be the best one to have the power to straighten Ian out, what are your thoughts?" I ask him suggesting to him. Father smiles
"Yes, that idea you have is perfect," he says. Transferring to his office, I begin to breathe in and out and focusing on my powers, I raise my hands above my head and keeping them still into the air, I summon him.
"Pahla loom dayla grant me the power to summon Father Van Helsing!" I call out then the ground starts to shake uncontrollably and Father Van Helsing shimmers into Father Van Moore's office room and looks all around the surroundings. To be quite honest I can tell by looking into Father Van Helsing's steel gray eyes, his emotions they show that it was a good move as he can see Ian, a stuck-up hero wannabe that wants to save the world himself. He says that he is in love with the real hero that has things that he wants. The powers that he can use to kill his own big brother, Vlad Tepes. Ian still blames him for something that Vlad did not do on his own awareness, Ghost possessing him to do his personal sick games to get close to John. Looking at Father Van Helsing and Father Van Moore, Ian can see that he will not win in this argument that is for sure. Directing my eyes and letting them sink deep into Ian's eyes, he knows I'm serious about my choice, John will fight in this war, and we all have faith in him and we all will have a way to help him both in life and in death.
"Kate—" he says, but then Father Van Helsing stops him.
"Do not even think to say another word towards Kate, the reason for why I came to the world of the living is to warn you dear Ian, either you stay out of Johns way, or you will end up in worse places other than where Ghost was born in, I am serious Ian…do not do anything or I will have to step in to make sure you know your place in the war against the monsters of the night," Father Van Helsing says warning Ian.
"Are you kidding me? Father, John has nothing but a dead Father and a bitch for a Mother!—" Ian tries to explain, but all Father does is flashing in front of Ian and punching him in the face. Ian may have not fallen, or landed across the room, but he does is spit out blood and glare at us.
"You are a pathetic Bloodstone, I should get your nephew to put you in line," Father says then moves his eyesight to my direction.
"When I see John, I'll make sure to give him the full story about this war by doing what I am not supposed to, but I'll show him about how he's connected to our enemy," Father Van Helsing says quietly. Looking at all three of us, he sighs.
"This better be the last time that I need to be summoned from the other side, Ian, so you watch it or I'll get someone very dark, very much more powerful than even John and his true other half, I'll see you once again Kate, when you remember these words once again," Father Van Helsing says then vanishes without another single word and leaving me, Ian, and Father Van Moore all alone in Father Van Moore's office.
"I am not mad about you Ian when it comes to Johns powers, there is nothing to do with anger, but you are in my way of me creating a healthy relationship between me and John," I explain.
"Your son is just human, and he has absolutely no place to fight in this—" Ian growls then Father Van Moore takes a gun to the side of his head.
"Watch what you say, you are still a vampire and I am still a hunter, get out before I send that bullet from this gun right into your ear and popping it out from the other side of your head," Father Van Moore warns. Ian looks at the both of us and his eyes turn jet-black like the midnight sky, he better not screw with my son.
"Your son needs to know his place and so do you Kate, if he tries to fight in this war, I will make sure to step in—" Ian says then with that threat coming passed through his foul inhumane lips, I sucker punch him in the face, sending him across the other side of Father Van Moore's office. As Ian looks at me, he bares his fangs at me and all Father Van Moore does is point the gun towards Ian and before that bullet was able to hit Ian, Ian dodged it and jumps right into my face. His eyes drowning in his desire for the kill towards John, I can see his fangs baring at me, trying to see if I can get scared of him and along with the scent of his breath that had the scent of blood in it and I know because Johns Father, Dan turned me into a vampire and made sure that no one could be able to kill me, not even the real monster behind me and behind Ghost himself. I know and what no one else knows is that his world was once part of this cosmos and Earth had his family hunting humans for disturbing reasons.
"Try it Ian, Dan maybe dead, but he can still send his servants to kill you, as you are still just a turned vampire," I tell him warning that I became the Princess of the vampire kingdom in Hells Capital.
"By the way, I will be sure to make sure you will not even lay a finger on Johns head, because if you do, I will kill you, you, stupid son of a bitch," I say to Ian. Ian backs off and takes looks at both me and Father Van Moore, before vanishing, he says something that I will make sure that he will not do in any way known to mankind.
"When I see John and if he uses his powers, I will make sure that I kill John and no matter what, his soul will be the deepest depths of the chaos," Ian growls out then vanishes. All I can do is feel my anger growing and at the same time, I may feel enraged, I can still feel the fright from the thought of losing John and knowing that he is the only family that I have left ever since Dan died.
"He will not kill John Kate, I promise you, I will kill Ian if he does anything to harm our dear friend," Father Van Moore says then he goes into his pants pocket and pulls out a vile of fairy blood and directs back at me. I know what this means, I have to forget my real self and I will be back as what I was once born as; Being first born as a human. This is meant to be in the end, I guess.
"Father Van Moore, before you give me the fairy blood, call up Johns real soulmate and make sure that he straightens Ian out, promise me?" I ask him. He nods and hands me the vile and as soon as I drink it, everything turns to darkness.
Opening my eyes, I see myself eating shrimp with broccoli and sitting across from John. What just happened? How did I end up here with no memory of before sitting here with John? Whatever, maybe it is just left in the darkest part of my mind. I can tell that John seems nervous, I think it is the spirits again, I know that I have to protect him, from knowing the truth about his Father. One day though, John will know, and we will all be happy, and we may have that loving relationship that we have been needing for years now.
"Mom, what was Dad like before he left us?" John asks. My eyes widen, his Dad was a good man, but the secret is going to kill him, and I do not even think if he can handle it. Standing up, I look at him and I tell the lies that I need to tell him for now.
"It is not worth talking about because of him leaving me in order to avoid taking care of you, I am going to finish dinner when I can be alone, goodbye John," I say without letting John know that I was in pain for saying that to him. Leaving the kitchen, I feel the agony in Johns heart and soul. I can hear him talking to himself as I know that all he wants to know is that if his Father, Dan ever did love him. The pain will not go away, and I think sometimes disappearing is better than seeing John in pain, but knowing that if I do disappear, John will not have anyone but other hunters and just the only thing he will have in common with them is how they want to get rid of monsters of the night from planet Earth itself. I will always love you John, always. Listening to Ian's bitching about how John is never going to understands about the war and how he needs to stay out of the hunters' business, even though he himself isn't human and that we hunt vampires too. So, he needs to stop being such a hypocrite with John and Ghost wanting John, my one and only son dead and never coming back.
"You need to stop acting like John can be a hero, Kate, you know that we're all strong enough to defeat Ghost—"
"No Ian, John's fighting alongside us and that's end of discussion, now leave," I say since this is my house, and I do not want people keeping John in the dark. What people in the group of hunters don't know about, it's that me and Johns Father are planning on coming out as I got a spell from Hope to summon Dan for the both of us to tell him everything. Then I hear that psychos voice and his energies close by John.
"Leave Ian, I got this," I say. Ian then leaves in a flash and I go running up the stairs and I run straight into Johns room and I kneel beside him.
"John, are you okay? The spirits told me that someone came to you from years ago," I ask.
"I'm fine Mom, I'm okay," he says. I am surprised that he is okay, at least for now.
I get John off from hid bed and I sigh.
"You better not get John away from me Ian, I'll send Father Van Moore after you with other hunters and I'll make sure they kill you," as I Mumble underneath my breath in Romanian, something that I could never teach John so he cannot understand what I say, or he will freak out on me. Leading John into the kitchen, that bastard came in even when I said not to show up used a memory erasing spell and flashes John back into his room.
"You son of a bitch! I was going to talk to John, my own son about his future with school and what his dreams are! You son of a bitch, Ian!" I yell out in rage. All Ian does is glare evilly.
"Keep your place from us, you're no hunter, you're just a person that has nothing but hopeless and empty dreams," Ian says cold-heartedly then vanishes into thin air and leaving me alone with no one to yell at but myself…something that I will always do until I die. Walking out and up the stairs, I walk to Johns room and I open the door, seeing John sleeping soundly makes me happy. I just want him to be happy and healthy with a bright future, closing the door in silence, I walk into my room which is across from his room and I get into my night gown and get into my bed.
"Dan will John ever see me as his Mom?" I ask, but then he will not answer because we both know he is always seen me as his Mom. It is just something that we need to plan out on how we can tell him that we both love and care about him.
"Kate, I'm here," Dan calls out. Getting up into a sitting position, I see Dan standing by the foot of the bed smiling. His eyes showed such promise and I know that he is the only one of us that are trying to defeat Ghost that knows that we need John more than ever and in order for him to fight and defeat Ghost, he must know the truth and we must never keep him in the dark anymore.
"Dan, what's wrong with me? Ian is fighting against us and I'm starting to wonder if he's on our side or not, can't you see where we stand up when it comes to both us and that bastard Ian?" I ask him. Dan just sighs, he knows something that I do not know about.
"Kate, Ian just wants to help, he's just mad that John's not his soulmate and how Father Van Helsing is giving him the truth, that he has no place in helping John win," Dan explains. Dan then vanishes away and leaving me alone. Looking at the ceiling I close my eyes and I let darkness take over and I then finally falling asleep within utter dead silence.
As I take the last few sips of my sprite can, I see Ian flashing in the kitchen.
"Kate," is the only thing he says.
"Ian, Dan told me why you've been wanting John to stay out of the war against Ghost and I'm not mad at you anymore, but I'm still going to tell him the truth about me and Dan when the time is right in the future and that's something that you yourself have no place in making any chance in changing it, me and Dan are his parents, you're not his Father," I say to him. Ian just sighs in irritation. He can go to Hell and get tortured by the Devil for all I care because all he does is try to protect when it makes him look like a control freak. Then as I was about to say any more about the war, we hear John walking in. He looks like the younger version of his Father. His baggy goth style jeans and long sleeved "Paramore" band shirt and sandals. All I can do is just flash a dark glare at him for reasons that only the two of us know about. He then looks at John and turns back to me.
"John, this man is a good friend of the family, his name is Derek and he's just about to leave, right Derek?" I says shaking in irritation. He looks at John and turns and leaves the house. I look at him I then take a long, deep breath and I walk up to him.
"John, there are things that I'm trying to change, and our relationship is one of them, don't forget that," I say then leaving John alone in the kitchen.
Sitting in front of my laptop working on my short story that I am still editing, I remembered that I just ordered from an hour ago! Closing my laptop, I run out and I knock on Johns bedroom door.
"John, dinner's done!"
"Coming," he answers as I get into the kitchen and the both of us sitting down at the table and I place the Chinese takeout food down onto the table.
"Let's start eating," I say. As I sit in the kitchen eating with John alone, I start to hear about how he is wondering if we are in the 'Twilight Zone' since there are not any guys here visiting me. they are just hunters that are taking turns on watching over him because of the way Ian has been acting towards John and me.
"I am coming after your soul, Johnny!" screams out a voice. Looking all around the kitchen, we both know that even though it does not look like there is anyone or anything is here other than the both of us, demons of unknown forces are here and are scaring the shit out of John and I. My heart is beating fast and yet John does not know or even pay any attention to it. I would like to know more about Johns life at school and at his job at the Italian restaurant. It would be wonderful to know.
"What is wrong, John?" I ask. All he does is the same thing and that is pretty much shaking his head in all lies, the same thing that I do when I have to pretend to not care nor love him.
"Everything is fine," he answers with lies going straight through his teeth. All I can do in playing in utter stupidity is one short answer and that is shaking my head and then going back to munching on my shrimp and broccoli that is drowned heavy in Chinese mustard. Looking at me, he finally gives in by asking me this lifelong question that I have always wanted to hear him ask me, but all I can do at the same time is lie with that question.
"Mom, what was Dad like before he left us?" John asks. All I can do is have my eyes widen in shock.
"What?" I ask in pretending shock.
"I never knew him and no matter who I ask from the other side, they do not tell me anything, so I am asking you Mom, what was Dad like before he left us?" he asks. Within a moment of him asking that question, I stand up and I look at him.
"I will never tell you in any lifetime; it's not even worth talking about," I answer. Turning my back on John, not giving the consideration for my son, Johnathon Haven Stone, to give him the right to know about his Father and our family, his two "brothers" are actually his cousins that live in Romania now as psychics. They also work as writers like myself as they, including John gave me the inspiration to write books. Spirits that haunt John, that pisses me off big time all the time, they call him "Van Helsing" which he isn't and FYI they have no right to tell him that they want to protect him, but yet they just play stupid and inconsiderate like us all, the only thing is that I'm alive and they're not. That's the difference so I have no excuse.
"If I had the choice, things would be different...much different, goodbye John," is all I can then leaving John in the kitchen all alone.
Walking into my bedroom, I see Dan popping in without me even thinking about him.
"You need to tell him, even though you and the other hunters don't think it's right, it is and now I'm getting mad at Father Van Moore for pushing you into it, I'm going there and I'll give him and Hope a piece of my mind," Dan says then vanishes and I hear something from behind me. using my shielding powers and turning around.
"La Desta Rosa!" I yell out, realizing that it's just Hope with Dan here again.
"I'll let John see Dan and you, but just this once and then he'll have to forget it, okay, Kate?" Hope asks. My eyes widen and I nod. Walking out of my room with just Dan by my side, we go into Johns room and we see him sleeping.
"I'm not waking him up Dan, I'm sorry he doesn't get good, if not any sleep because of the spirits and that bastard demon, Ghost," I say whispering then placing my hand on the top of his head, I lean down and kiss his forehead. Dan smiles.
"If I was still alive Kate, we could've seen great things with John and he could see us like humans on planet Earth can see," he says then we leave Johns room and standing in the hallway, he then kisses me.
"I know that we're soulmates, but I know there's someone that cares for you very much, I cannot tell you who it is though as he told me in confidence, I'll see you again one day but as friends only as I know you've moved on from me," he says and then vanishes. I may not know who it is, but Dan's right as I did move on. It just hurts with the fact that John never got to know him.
"Kate get some rest, I know you need it just like John does on a daily basis," Hope says then vanishes. Sighing from todays events, I go back into my bedroom and getting dressed for sleep, getting into the bed, and passing out immediately.
