Chapter 4: Dracula Factoids
Hermione simply shrugged her shoulders and said, "I'm bored, I wanna see if I can help bring down another, 'Dark Noble'."
"Okay," said Riley, stretching out the word. "What do you mean 'Another Dark Noble'?"
Raven took over the explaining here, "well, you know that Dracula calls himself 'The Dark Master' and 'The Dark Prince', though everyone knows that's Ozzy Osbourne, but we've also taken down a man who called himself 'Lord Voldemort'. As a show of respect Voldemort's followers called him 'The Dark Lord'."
The only one in the room who didn't look confused, other than Raven, was Hermione.
"We'll tell you later."
With that said Hermione handed over the book to Riley. However, before she let go, she said, "I DO want my book back. If you don't give it back after this week is up it'll come back anyway, but I trust you to...deliver it."
POV change
Sitting on the armchair, her laptop computer balanced across her legs, Willow Rosenberg suddenly bounced up and down excitedly.
"I have Dracula Factoids," she proclaimed proudly.
"So?" Said Xander, "they're not going to help stop the Dark Master."
As he said this everyone looked at him.
"Bater," said Xander covering his mistake.
"Anyway," said Buffy, stretching out the word. "What you got Wills?"
"Well, you know how he can turn into a bat and fly and stuff?"
"Yeah."
"Apparently he learnt it all."
"And? How does it help us kill him?" Asked a slightly miffed Buffy.
"It doesn't," admitted Willow. "But an interesting fact about Dracula is, he likes to have a connection to his victims. He wants them to want it."
"Still not going to help kill the Dark Prince."
Once again everyone turned to Xander. "Bater?" Xander tried again.
"Whatever," said Riley looking slightly put out. "Listen, I popped in to see our little friend."
"Miss Kitty Fantastico?" Asked Willow.
"What? No," Replied Riley. "Spike. Anyway, he had some guests over. They where vampires, but the thing is, they want to help get rid of Drac."
"Why?" Asked Willow, curious as to why a vampire would want to do this.
"They were bored and wanted to 'get rid of another Dark Noble', as they put it."
"Right," said Buffy. "So...where is this going down?"
"They gave me this book," said Riley. "It was from a library that was behind a door. But the thing is the library wasn't meant to be there."
"What do you mean?" Asked Giles.
"Well when Spike said he didn't know it was there, the elder female said it wasn't."
"Weird," said Buffy.
"I know," Riley replied. "The book was called Dracula: The Facts and Myths Thereof. I put it in my bag and brought it with me but the main things I found were things like, when Dracula gets dusted he can use magic to resurrect himself so only magic can make him stay as dust. Also, as a human he was a wizard and was considered one of the most powerful of the time."
POV Change
The sun had just gone down, which made Raven, Hermione, and Hamisi thankful.
"Thank the great bastard called God for night time," said Raven, as he stepped through the cemetery gate.
"Come on," said Hermione. "I wanna take out Dracula and we're not gonna be able to do that if we wait."
At this Raven rolled his eyes and, after grabbing onto Hamisi, apparated to the centre of town. He was closely followed by Hermione and, after she arrived, said, "okay, so what do we do now? Wonder around 'till we find something?"
"No, you ejit," said Hermione, rolling her eyes. "Look for a big arse castle."
"Leave things like 'big ass' to the Americans," said Raven getting cheeky. "Big ass, sounds much better than, 'big arse'."
Hermione then swotted Raven on the back of the head and, as she saw a castle, used the brief contact to side-long apparate them to the building.
After braving the knocked out Xander and the open door to the three sisters' room, which Raven said would be nice to visit after they'd finished, the trio made it to the centre room where there was Riley Finn, standing next to a short blond girl, and an old Englishman.
A pile of dust on the floor then reformed into a tall, pale man with long straight black hair. He was immediately staked again.
'That's just cruel,' though Raven. 'She could have at least let him make the 'you cannot defeat me' speech'
The dust then started to reform again. In responded to this the blond said, "I'm still here you know." This caused the dust to blow away.
"Well that's Dracula taken care of," said Raven. He then ignored all the looks that the trio in front of them were giving him, as he muttered, "now which way was it to the three sisters' room?"
The blond immediately leapt into attack, only to be hit with an Depulso , which sent her sprawling, and had an annoyed Raven standing over her.
"You know, it's not very nice to just attack," said Raven sounding bored. "Generally, if you're going it fight someone you don't know its good manners to at least find out their name's, and if possible give your own."
The blond merely glared.
"Fine," she huffed. "Who are you?"
"I'm Raven," Raven replied, a grin spreading over his face. "Nice ta meet cha."
"I'm Buffy," she said warily.
"Don't worry," said Hermione. "Raven's just anticipating 'staking' the three sisters." This was said with a somewhat cheeky grin on her face.
"And you are?" asked Buffy.
"I'm Hermione Jean Granger," she said, bowing with a flourish.
"I'm Hamisi," said Hamisi, peeking out from behind Hermione.
It was at this time that Riley came over and said, "hi, thanks for the book."
"You're welcome," said Hermione, smiling. "Just remember to return it. You may not like what happens otherwise."
"Was that a threat?" Growled Buffy.
"No, it was a warning. All the books have a spell on them to return them to the library after a stated time limit. I said one week, so Finn here has one week before the spell activates and kills him and then returns it to the library."
The Englishman then came over then and said, "that's a little extreme, isn't it?"
Raven shrugged, and replied in a nonchalant tone, "yeah, but the family of Black has always been extreme when it came to protecting what's theirs."
"How would you know?" Asked Riley. "And how do you have access to their 'portable library'?"
"I know," Said Raven, starting to walk off. As he did this the others unconsciously followed him wanting to know more, except Hermione who wanted to leave. "Because before I was turned, I was the mad Head of the mad Family. As soon as I get staked and die permanently, my will shall be read and the next head will be chosen."
AN
I know it's not as long as the other chapters and people probably want to chase me down and attack me for not updating in so long (or is that just wishful thinking that people would be that dedicated) but for the most part I've had...I guess you could call it writers block but instead of not getting any ideas I've been getting too many and most of them are focused on different stories. As well as this I've just started college (yay me) and I've been distracted for the most part. For these reasons I may not be able to update as often as I might like and I personally hate it when someone just abandons their story so in an attempt to not be a hypocrite I shall continue this through to the end, though it may have updates few and far between.
For those of you wondering Miss Kitty Fantastico is the name that Willow and Tara gave their cat. I included this bit for comic relief and don't want to insult any die-hard Willow fans.
As I put at the end of every chapter reviews and ideas are always welcome. Flames will have a cursory glance and if they are too offensive I may try to publicly flog the Flamer. Remember, you have been warned.
As of now I am opening a poll on my profile due to writers block. On the 31st of Jan it will close and then I will work on that idea.
