05x05 - Sisterhunt

[bunniefuu]

Previously on "Van Helsing"...

The Dark One got inside my head.

- Violet!

No!

- I wasn't prepared.

I can feel my power returning.

But only just a taste.

Part of me still remains c*ptive.

AXEL: There's some orange powder floating around out there.

It's deadly to both humans and vampires.

You got to avoid it at all costs.

Use masks whenever you can, you got me?

Go my pet!

Fetch my desire!

[EVIL LAUGHTER]

♪♪ ♪♪

♪♪ Ever since the rising my primary goal is to protect you.

Look, I've made some mistakes and there are things I wish had gone differently, but you, Violet, I wish I could tell you how important you are to me.

Don't go...

[GROANS IN PAIN]

[SCREAMING AND SOBBING]

You know what I miss more than chocolate?

[LAUGHS]

Yeah, I haven't had a man in centuries.

I only ever had two or three.

At a time.

I highly recommend it.

- [LAUGHING]

- Whore.

You?

You need to catch up.

How old were you, your first time, Ivory?

Oh, you don't wanna know.

Violet?

Violet?

How about you?

How about me what?

Ah.

[LAUGHING]

Just ignore them.

Come join us.

Come on.

Now you are part of the circle and you must tell us everything.

When was your first time?

Alright, let's just say what happens in m*llitary school stays in m*llitary school.

Yes!

Yes!

- Yes, yes!

- What did you do?

- [LAUGHING]

- Okay, okay.

It's more pressing than first times.

Who's having first watch?

I will.

I haven't been drunk in a long time and why waste the buzz by sleeping?

Claire, wear your mask.

You can't see that orange dust in the dark.

Hey.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

No, I'm alright.

Scared, actually.

I'm not used to that anymore.

It's been a while.

Now that orange powder kills vampires and people, it's a lot to worry about.

Yeah, it is.

But we'll get through this together.

Hey, Claire?

I'll take second watch.

She was supposed to wake me to keep watch.

- Claire!

- Fan out.

We have to find her.

- Claire!

- Claire!

Claire!

Claire!

Claire!

Where are you?

- There!

- Where?

There!

Right there!

Claire!!!

Claire!

Claire!

Oh, my God.

No.

Claire!

- Zuma.

- Claire.

Zuma, wait.

Zuma, wait!!!

Claire.

Claire.

[SOBBING]

I should have taken first watch.

This isn't your fault.

I know their kind.

I would have sensed them coming.

Who?

And why put her heart in her hand?

'Cause it's a warning.

It's to mark their territory.

Desert vampires did this.

How?

There are no tracks anywhere.

She would have wanted you to have this.

You know, I used to send them to their deaths without even a second thought.

And now I...

The vampires that did this...

They're gonna pay the price.

[SMASH]

Smells like something rotted in here.

Hey!

What do you think you're doing?

I'm making sure that whatever's in this place dies.

We clean these rooms together as a unit, okay?

Groups of two, room by room until we're certain it's all clean.

Don't let your guard down and don't leave your partner.

Understand?

Zuma, Mira, you guys take upstairs.

Ivory and I will take this floor and the basement.

If it moves, k*ll it.

[DOOR CREAKS]

Hey!

Hey!

I know you're pissed off about Claire, we all are.

But this sh*t right here, revenge, it's reckless.

It's not just about Claire.

Jack.

I miss her, too.

We're gonna get her back somehow.

Just keep searching.

What is that smell?

[FLIES BUZZING]

I found the stink.

Mira!

[g*nshots]

No, no!

Mira!!!

[STRUGGLING]

Fight!

Fight Mira!

[STRUGGLING GRUNTS]

[FIGHTING GRUNTS]

[g*nf*re]

This is for my sister!!!

Mira!

Are you okay?

- How did you let it get so close?!

- Hey!

- Huh?!

- It just grabbed me, I don't know.

Come on.

We should make sure that's the last of them.

Zuma, why don't you get her downstairs?

Let's go.

Come on.

She was a great fighter in the Sisterhood.

But this Mira?

I don't understand.

She's not a vampire warrior anymore.

She's human.

You should get to know that person.

VIOLET: So you two knew each other before you were turned?

IVORY: Yes.

Zuma lived just a few houses down from my family.

ZUMA: And then the Spanish arrived.

They were convinced we had a stock of gold hidden somewhere.

At first they tried to trade for it.

And our leaders tried to convince them that we simply didn't have any.

My father was the first to be slaughtered.

And then your father just a few days later?

And all my brothers, too.

Right in front of me.

I tried to fight but there were too many...

... around your house.

You know, Zuma was one of the best warriors in our village.

I mean, the men would never admit it, especially the ones she bested.

What happened next?

They tried to convert us.

Accept their faith like it was a gift.

And when we refused they b*rned us at the stake.

One by one.

The flames went out before most had d*ed.

They left us like that.

Chained, screaming.

How did you guys survive?

Michaela.

She came from the darkness.

She turned us.

Forced us into the Sisterhood.

Salvation.

There were just centuries of darkness and death.

I need some water.

I had no idea, all these years.

These memories...

They don't really live in me as a vampire but now...

But what about your life, before Michaela turned you?

I don't even know your story.

Michaela?

Yeah.

What was that?!

There's something out there.

Where?

I don't see anything.

It's something, I swear.

The darkness can play tricks on your mind.

I know what I saw.

Where's Zuma?

Zuma?

Zuma?

Zuma?

Zuma?

- Zuma!

- Zuma!!

I don't see her.

Down there.

Zuma?

Zuma?

Zuma?

Zuma?

Zuma.

Zuma, what're you doing?

Zuma?

Zuma?

Stop this.

What the?!

Zuma!

Zuma, what're you doing?

Alas, the darkness, it calls.

[ECHOING]

Can't you hear it?

Zuma, listen to me.

Listen to my voice.

Your voice?

There's only one voice now.

It wants.

[ECHOING]

I can't stop it.

And you will not deny me.

[SWORDS CLASHING]

Everyone down!

Mira wait!

Mira!!

Zuma, no!

Mira!

Stop her!

Don't let her open the amulet!

[WHISPERING VOICES]

Mira!

Mira, do something!

[THUD]

[GASPING]

Why didn't you do something, hmm?

Are you a coward?

- Hey!

- Are you a coward now?!

- VIOLET: Okay, stop it!

- Is that what you are?!

- Stop!

- We could have saved Zuma!

- You saw her...

- We could have done that.

You saw her, okay?

She was-I don't know what she was, but it wasn't Zuma.

It wasn't her.

It was the shadow.

I saw it down there right before she att*cked you.

- What did you see?

- I don't know.

It was like a shadow came alive.

It did something to Zuma and I think it k*lled Claire and now it is going to k*ll us.

What is it?

I'm...

I'm not sure.

Remember that piece of whatever this is that got out?

What if it got back to the Dark One?

You know, like what if it kinda just went home, like it's a piece of her?

Zuma was trying to get this, which can only mean that whatever was controlling her was sent by the Dark One.

She knows a piece of her is in this and she wants it back.

There was this tale that went through the Sisterhood.

- What tale?

- It was long before you were turned.

It was a hunter, the Vanator.

Michaela tried for decades to conjure one up.

It's a spirit form the Dark Realm and it hunts its prey in the darkness.

It-it kills anyone that stands in its way until it gets what it wants.

It's unstoppable.

It's un-killable.

So you think that's what this is?

A Vanator?

Well then there must be some way to destroy it.

No.

Only the one that summons it can destroy it.

Well, I don't think the Dark One is gonna have a change of heart, so...

I don't know.

Like, we-we try to outrun it.

- Yeah.

- Get it to lose our trail.

[THUNDEROUS SOUNDS]

We can't outrun it.

It's not gonna be safe out there until dawn.

Can we keep it out?

I mean, maybe?

I mean, we're gonna try.

We gotta mark our territory.

How?

What does any of this have to do with The Vanator?

We need to protect ourselves right now!

We've gotta bind our territory.

A mark a line of blood in every entrance.

We gotta mark the whole house.

Mira, upstairs.

You take the bedrooms on the left.

Come on!!!

[WHISPERING VOICES]

JACK'S VOICE: Violet, come quickly.

I'm here.

Come outside.

We'll be safe.

Jack?

I'm coming.

I'm coming!

Jack, I'm coming.

Jack!

Jack!

I'm coming!

She left us.

- What?

- She just walked out.

It's that thing, isn't it?

The Vanator.

Violet!

Violet!

Violet!

Jack!

JACK'S VOICE: Violet!

Come find me.

Jack!

Jack, I'm gonna save you!

JACK'S VOICE: You're close.

Jack!

Tell me where you are!

IVORY: Violet!

Violet!

Violet!

Violet!!

VANATOR: Violet, we can be whole.

IVORY: Violet!

Violet!

But I shouldn't.

IVORY: Violet, no!

I really shouldn't.

Violet, no, no!

- Yes.

She must be free.

- Close your eyes, Violet.

- No!

- I will free her.

Violet, Violet don't!

Don't do it!

No!

[g*n sh*ts]

This needs to happen.

Ivory.

Violet!

Come on.

Come on.

Come on, wake up.

Come on.

Come on.

Mira!

Mira!!

Mira!!!

Close your eyes!

Call out to me so I can follow your voice!

Mira!!!

This way!

I'm here!

[BANGING]

You k*lled her?

[STAMMERING]

Uh...

uh...

I had to.

The thing wouldn't let her go!

What if she's still under the influence of that thing?

Come on, Violet.

Fight.

Fight!

Fight!

She could k*ll us if you're wrong.

Just shut up, okay?!

[SOBBING]

Fight, please.

Come back!

Come back!

[GASPS]

[CATCHES HER BREATH]

Where's the amulet?

Where is the amulet?

Where is the amulet?

I have it.

Put the g*n down.

Is it empty?

Did I open the amulet?

No.

Just put the g*n down.

Okay.

How are you feeling?

Like I just got stabbed in the heart.

You looked right at it, didn't you?

That's how it gets control.

I thought I was talking to Jack.

But it wasn't her.

It got inside my head.

It didn't want you dead.

No, not until I opened the amulet and let the darkness get out.

I'm sorry.

For what?

I'm gonna get us k*lled.

I just know it.

Why would you say something like that?

Because I don't wanna die, okay?

After what I felt earlier.

What you felt?

Mira, you better tell us.

When that vampire att*cked me upstairs I was so scared.

We're all scared.

This is different.

I'm not used to feeling the human emotions and it overwhelmed me.

But you're a sister.

You've been trained to fight.

I'm not like you, okay?

I was a normal person with a normal life and you took that away from me, Ivory.

When I look at you, when I close my eyes and think of what I'm most afraid of, it's you.

What?

You turned me and you don't even remember.

You stormed my parents' house.

You and your Sisterhood.

You drank my family dry.

My baby brother.

My real sisters.

My mother.

Mira, I'm sorry I caused you that pain...

I know that wasn't you, Ivory, but when I look at you all I see is that monster.

[THUNDEROUS SOUND]

It's trying to get past our defences.

Maybe we should just give it what it wants and it will leave us alone.

That will never happen.

What's inside my amulet is too powerful.

It's not gonna be safe out there until dawn.

It only hunts at night.

We won't last that long.

Listen, Mira.

I know I'm the reason why you're here.

I know it's my fault but you have to listen to us.

Together we're gonna get through this, okay?

- Okay.

- We're all exhausted.

We're all scared.

We just stay downstairs until dawn and then we'll just get as far from here as we can.

Okay?

- Okay.

- Okay.

Hey, what're you reading?

The history of vampires.

Maybe there's something in here about b*ating a Vanator.

You know, it's worth a sh*t anyway.

What're you doing?

It's cold.

I'm gonna light a fire.

Mira?

Mira?

We're over here.

We need your help.

Have you come back for us?

Help us.

Mira please, we're in here.

Mira, Mira please.

You said that Michaela tried to conjure a Vanator.

Mm-hmm.

Do you remember anything about that?

IVORY: It was so long ago, those memories are kinda hazy.

I'm thinking that if Michaela knew then maybe Abraham did, too.

And maybe he put something in this book.

Mira?

Mira, put down those swords.

She must be whole again.

Ivory, somehow The Vanator got her.

Give me the amulet.

Get back.

Mira, don't listen to what it tells you to do.

Don't listen to them.

Help us.

Give it to me.

Mira, I know you're in there.

You need to fight it.

Help us.

[SOBS]

I can't.

Yes, you can.

Yes, you can.

Yes, you can.

You can.

I'm so scared.

No, don't be scared.

Fight the fear.

IVORY: Come on, do it.

You can do it.

Listen to us.

Give me the amulet.

Oh, Mira.

I know you're not that monster, Ivory.

I'm sorry.

No, no, no, no, no, Mira.

Please don't.

Put down the swords.

Mira, please.

Don't do it.

Mira!!!

[GASPING]

[SOBBING]

She did it for us.

She was my last sister and now it's just me.

I don't deserve to be the last.

Ivory.

Ivory, don't break now.

We need you, okay?

I don't remember changing her.

It's true.

Because there was so many.

It's not your fault.

It's not.

I was a normal person, too.

I was gonna have a family.

I was gonna give my mother grandchildren.

This is the Dark One's fault.

All of this.

This sh*t is what her evil does.

You say that but you don't really know, Violet.

You've never really felt the darkness.

Watching my dad try to fight his darkness and die trying, seeing the Dark One take control of Jack, I've felt it.

Believe me.

But you've never felt it inside of you.

The people that I've drained and left to rot.

Mira's family?

I don't even remember.

Because the enjoyment that I felt in k*lling, the pleasure that I took in people's pain.

[SOBBING]

That's not who I was before.

It's not who you are now.

Okay?

Okay.

[THUNDEROUS SOUNDS]

[GASPS]

I'm never gonna forget that darkness.

That despair.

And you're never gonna understand it.

But I will, though.

I have to, because this sh*t ends now.

Wait!

No, wait, wait, wait, wait!

Violet!

Wait, wait.

What're you doing?

Enough hiding.

But The Vanator, it's gonna make you open it and then it's gonna k*ll you.

That's all it knows what to do.

You said that The Vanator could be stopped by whoever summoned it, so if the Dark One summoned it and this is part of her...

But we don't know that for certain.

What choice do we have?

We might survive 'til dawn but what about the next night?

And the next one?

We can't outrun this thing and we can't even k*ll it but the Dark One can so I find...

Violet.

Don't.

I've never felt the darkness like you have, you're right.

But I'm a Van Helsing and it's my duty to resist and destroy the darkness.

But are you strong enough?

I guess we'll see.

Oh, Violet.

Come to me.

Come to me.

Come, I command thee.

Come, I command thee.

Come to me.

Don't listen to them.

You have served your purpose.

Help me purge the darkness.

The darkness must be purged.

No.

Give it to me.

[GASPS]

Give it to me.

[GASPS]

♪♪ Close it!

Close it!

Quickly!

Close it!

Close it!

Argh!!!

You did it.

Did what?

The Dark One's still out there.

All I did is buy time.

But it's something.

It has to be.

We've all lost so much.

Jack, Vanessa, your sisters.

That's why we need to end it once and for all.

I know what you were trapped in all those years.

Nothing was your fault.

It was all I could do not to fall off the edge.

What?

What?

What'd you find?

It's Jack.

It's Jack!

I- I've flipped through this book over and over.

This-this definitely was never here before.

Jack Van Helsing, - ?

Do you think this has anything to do with the amulet changing, too?

I don't know.

But if Jack travelled back in time...

To .

She could have changed both these things.

- No way.

- What?

These numbers.

See?

Yeah, what about 'em?

They-they look like coordinates.

She must want us to go somewhere.

But this is a place that Jack knew?

It must be.

And these numbers, they tell you where?

Um... latitude and longitude.

It's on the east coast.

Orientation class was my favourite and Jack knew that.

I can't believe she's gone.

But she left us a sign, and we're gonna find it.

Together.

You know the darkness now.

And we're gonna k*ll it.
