VANESSA: Previously on Van Helsing...
- I will raise the Dark One. - Yes.
And then I will carve out his heart.
Here goes everything.
Don't follow me.
As if I'd leave you on your own.
He is found with her. She returns to the crypt.
DOOR LOCK BUZZES
SHE SCREAMS
Julius!
Frankie!
Do you wanna walk to Renfield House?
I've gotta be there for Vanessa whether she wants me to or not.
Only one can make it to the end.
I make my own fate.
SAM'S VOICE ECHOES: Mohamad...
- SAM GROWLS - My Mohamad.
IN SONG-SONG: I found you!
You're a part of me...
heart and soul.

Bad dream?
HANSEN: So there's no way you could have prevented Caitlyn's death?
DOC: No.
The vampire bit her before I could do anything.
By the time I got my gun, it was too late.
HANSEN: Why didn't you report it straight away?
It wasn't exactly a priority. The whole city was in chaos.
I don't know. Maybe I was scared.
- Hm. - I got the hell out of there.
I mean, I could have been killed too.
You know... you know what I can't work out?
How this vampire got in here in the first place.
Eh... it's, uh...
it's odd, don't you think?
We lost a whole sector of the city to vampires.
If that can fail, who knows what else?
Hm.
You know, I gotta give it to you. It's so... effortless for you.
Not even a hint of remorse in your eyes.
We didn't catch anything on that CCTV in the hallway, but...
- we buried one in a wall. - CAITLYN SCREAMS ON VIDEO
Caitlyn didn't trust you.
She would have told you that herself
but you found this very unique way of keeping her quiet.
OK, look, look. She was blackmailing me, OK?
- You don't understand... - Sit the fuck down.
All that matters now is what we do with you.
OK.
Just send me to Loveland.
- Loveland. - HANSEN LAUGHS
You'd like that, wouldn't you?
Unfortunately, you're still too valuable for me here.
How?
Well, we have this little vampire problem
and since you are the supposed expert, you're gonna solve it.
Assuming you ever wanna see your girlfriend again.
DISTORTED VOICE WHISPERS: Vanessa...
Vanessa Van Helsing.
Destiny...
VANESSA: Turn around.
Face me.
I sense something so...
HE SNIFFS So sweet, yet sour.
SHE EXHALES
Love those eyes.
SAM CRIES
I have a destiny.
So do I.
SAM: You have become stronger than before.
What have you become?
The end of you.
Perhaps.
But what have you done to become this?
- HE YELLS - SHE GRUNTS
Nice knife.
HE YELLS
DISTORTED CROWS CAW
DISTORTED VOICE: The darkness summoned you.
But from two, only one may be.
VANESSA: Only one?
One what?
Liege to the Dark One.
An Elder.
Him, or...
Me.
Oh, yes.
You're not the fourth Elder.
So close.
Close enough to see...
and yet still so blind.
There is no fourth Elder, yet.
VANESSA: But the prophecy.
- My mother... - What's wrong?
What truth they never told was about the fourth.
The fourth...
must be made.
DOOR RUMBLES
THUNDER CRASHES
And now... here you are.
I don't believe you.
In your heart, you know the truth

This compound of yours is going to work, right?

No, no, no. You're coming with us.

Now.

I've been here before.
But it was different.
All will become clear.
You will see and know everything.
I don't need clarity.
The truth is clear now more than ever.
KNIFE CLATTERS
SAM: Tell me.
Then tell me what must be done.
The totems.
You have yours?
All I have...
is this.
Symbol of your pain.
Your suffering.
Made in darkness...
SAM RASPS
...from darkness.
Yes, this will do.
HE GASPS
And you.
One from your kindred.
But more.
The ring of the B'ah.
The bracelet of Abaddon.
Defeated them and stole theirs, didn't you?
And now all I need is Sam's
and his path to darkness ends.
What of yours?
Crafted one, did you?
This wasn't my path.
Was... always.
And you have it now, even if you do not see it for what it is.
Ah...
Give that back.
Precious.
Special.
A symbol of your pain, as are they all.
Offerings so beholden, you may become to the Dark One.
I'll never become an Elder.
This path you have always walked
towards your true purpose.
Which begins and ends with killing all of you.
Blind still...
and yet drawn to this, you are.
Always were.
All you need to do is embrace your true nature.
I'll never be like you.
Or him.
Still, you choose blindness!
All your life I have watched you walk a path you didn't know you were on.
Open your eyes!
I'll never join you.
If not you...
then him.
One will.
Yes.
Let it be me.
Let it be me!
Then you know what must be done.
THUNDER RUMBLES
So the security gate wasn't breached.
There's been no sign of vampires for the last 48 hours
so I think what makes most sense is we hold fast.
Wait for help to arrive.
- From where? - We called in reinforcements.
- That's all you need to know. - Reinfor...?
No, you don't get it. We need to go in there now.
That's too risky.
Listen to me, on the other side of that fence
they're figuring out a way to get in here and kill the rest of you.
They don't have that level of sophistication.
- They're ferals. - No. Not ferals.
Not anymore. They're Daywalkers.
Smart, tactical, harder to kill
and to top it off, they're immune to the sun now.
NGUYEN: No shit.
They walked right through the UV lights in quarantine like they weren't even there.
That's right. Now we have to take the fight to them.
That's all that matters.
He's right.
We wait and they can figure out a way around our defences, and then
game over.
Are you sure we're up to this? What if we don't have enough fire power?
We do now.
Ammo tipped with concentrate and aluminium silicate.
The hell is that?
DOC: A poison I engineered.
It's made from the same base chemical Blak Tek was using in your repellent.
Weaponised against vampires.
So in theory, a concentrated dose of the chemical that repels them
could also poison them.
Maybe even kill them.
In theory.
Has any of this been tested?
At all?
You wanna wait while we conduct trials?
Yeah, go ahead. We'll all be dead by the time the results come in.
NGUYEN: I'll take a squad of men through the gate.
Two other teams can enter here and here.
Any vampires in the area, we open fire, kill as many as we can.
Rescue any human survivors.
We'll need volunteers. Three teams led by me.
I'll do it.
What? Julius, you don't have to do this.
Yes, I do. For Frankie.
AXEL: You sure about this?
SCARLETT: We missed something the first time.
You didn't miss anything.
Vanessa killed Captain Forehead and, uh... the Susan Elder.
Yeah?
Well, where are the bodies?
AXEL: Uh, someone must have taken them, or... some thing.
Well, why is she still here?
I don't think that psychic vampire was trapped.
I think it was sent to be a guardian.
By who?
- And to guard what? Lily? - I don't know.
I mean, something brought her back here all those years ago and...
it's brought Vanessa back here, too.
AXEL: You think Vanessa's here already?
I don't think so, I know.
The maze in the book.
Whatever Jacob told her on the island.
See, now I don't know what you're talking about.
There's a feeling in this place.
A darkness.
I think it called out to her.
- How would you know that? - Because I feel it.
But every part of me wants to run and get the hell outta here.
- Well, let's trust your gut, babe. - No, I can't.
I can't. I really feel like I'm meant to be here too.
You can go. You don't have to stay.
Really?
And let the wonder twins have all the fun?
That's not gonna happen. You know the deal.
It's you and me to the end, babe.
That cross.
It's upside down.
AXEL: Oh, shit. That can't be good.
More steps on this path, you cannot take...
without this.
There is no other way.
VANESSA: Sam, don't.
THE ORACLE: You could have stopped this!
But you choose to reject the gift I offer, and so it must be.
Vanessa.
Sam? HE GRUNTS
You leave them alone.
And offerings you have brought me.
- You shouldn't have followed me. - You left me.
You need me.
Scarlett.
You need me to help you fight the dark.
It's what our mother warned us about.
Ah! Sister of yours, she is.
And this one?
A handsome sacrifice.
What the hell is this?
THE ORACLE: A new beginning.
Or the end.
Both.
Mohamad...
THE ORACLE: Do as you must.
Complete the prophecy.
Purge the light from your heart.
Mohamad! No...
Mohamad.
Mohamad...
- No... - My Mohamad, you must stay.
Stay with me.
Wh-what is this?
- Where are we? - Together.
- No... - Like it was always meant to be.
No. You turned me.
You wanted me to be a monster like you.
I know.
- But I'm not. - I know.
You left me...
in a hole to die.
But I didn't die, did I, Sam?
- I wouldn't. - I know.
But she...
she saved me.
She brought me back.
She gave me another chance.
I know.
So you see, Sam...
I don't belong to you.
I belong to no one.
Mohamad.
Strong...
good Mohamad.
You taught me... to see who I truly was.
To understand my true purpose.
And to feel love.
I do.
I did.
I hated you for that.
For making me... human.
I feel your heart beating.
My heart's beating, too.
But not with pity...
or shame, or...
or regret.
HE GROANS
Love is something I wasn't meant to know.
Love and light... are not my destiny.
MOHAMAD RASPS
They are a lie.
I hate you too, you lying son of a bitch.
I hope you die slowly, painfully
and alone.
And I wish I was the one to do it.
I know.
But this is who I am.
Who I've always been.
In the shadow of darkness.
FLESH SQUELCHES - MOHAMAD GASPS
You're not alone, Mohamad.
You're not alone.
You're not alone...
MOHAMAD GROANS
You're not alone, Mohamad.
Mohamad?
HE GASPS
HE WAILS
HE SCREAMS
I feel...
nothing now.
Julius, listen to me.
We need to get out of here. Now.
We find Jolene, we find Flesh, and go.
Not before I do this.
You don't know what I did.
They're gonna make me pay.
You just need to go back to the lab, get the results from the gene sequencer
- and get out of here, OK? - Doc, this isn't about you.
- This is a suicide mission! - Shh!
What're you gonna do? Murder yourself?
For Frankie?
I don't know if she's even dead or one of them now.
Either way, it wasn't your fault.
Isn't it?
- No. - I made Scab.
I'm the one that turned him, and he couldn't have bit her if it wasn't...
No.
I've gotta make this right.
You stubborn son of a bitch...
OK.
But you come back alive, OK?
Alive.
What're you gonna do?
Finish what I started.
DOOR LOCK BUZZES
NGUYEN: Stay sharp and in formation.
We'll sweep the roads before we clear the buildings.
First sign of trouble, look to me. Understood?
And so... the light in you is no more.
Your heart is dark.
Empty.
Pure.
It is nearly done.
Unless Vanessa embraces who she truly is.
SHE GASPS
I'll kill you, Sam.
I'll rip out your heart!
Yes, good. Let in the darkness.
- Join us. - Vanessa, don't!
You won't win.
I won't let you become Elder
- even if I have to myself. - Yes.
- Yes! - SCARLETT: No, Vanessa!
Listen to me!
You have to fight it.
Fight the rage, OK?
Like they taught you in China. You have to fight it.
SAM: You can't become an Elder.
You won't defeat me
because a light in your heart still lives.
Are you prepared to do what I did?
To snuff out the light in your heart?
Vanessa, you have to do it.
It's the only way to stop him. To stop all of them.
What?
You knew back at the lighthouse
that you were the only one who could face this.
It was your destiny, but what we both didn't understand...
I was made to make that possible.
I'm the only way that you can stop him.
That's my destiny.
Scarlett, what the hell are you talking about?
I met someone who told me that I had a purpose that I didn't understand.
I understand it now.
I wasn't meant to come here to stop you from going dark.
I was meant to give you the strength to resist it.
You don't have to do this alone.
What're you talking about?
This is insane.
- I won't. - You will.
- No... - We are born Van Helsing.
This is what our mother did.
Jacob told us that only one of us is gonna survive
so either we are gonna be the ones to walk the path
and destroy them all with light
or we must be destroyed
to make all that possible.
No, both of you, just listen to me. Listen to me.
Fucking listen to me!
You don't have to do this.
Don't do this.
I wanna stay with you, Axel.
- Then stay. - I can't.
I was never gonna walk out of here.
What're you talking about?
Either she goes dark and kills us
or I make the sacrifice
and give her the strength to do the right thing.
- There's gotta be some other way... - It's the only way.
You have to let me go, Axel.
- I can't. - You have to let me go.
I'm sorry.
I love you.
There's gotta be another way. Come on.
No.
Scarlett, don't.
We have to do this.
AXEL: No, Scarlett, not her...
Don't do it.
AXEL: Look at me. - Don't.
AXEL: Look at me!
Kill me.
Kill me!
Not the light in her heart, are you?
But why you?
Killing me will fuel the light in her.
And the light will win.
You would do that for her?
For everyone.
Oh, my God.
MADDOX: So, what're you saying?
HANSEN: That she can't be trusted.
But she still has value to the company.
The work that Caitlyn had her doing was important.
And what is that, exactly?
Perfecting the repellent, for one.
Look, our work here is too valuable to Blak Tek
to let her just walk away from it no matter what she did.
Walking away from a murder is not something I can justify
to the people in this city.
That's why you're not gonna tell them.
That's not gonna wash.
Caitlyn was one of mine.
As far as anyone else is concerned, I shipped her out during the chaos.
And what if someone starts to dig a little deeper into that?
Huh.
We still operate under the rule of law, right?
Denver's a free city because Blak Tek made it one.
It's under your watch that it's fallen apart.
Don't worry, the company still has confidence in your ability to set it all right.
Don't make us question that.
And what about her? The doctor?
She knows the truth.
Find her and bring her to me.
Do you think you can manage that?
Yeah.
You are our only hope.
It has to be you.
Scarlett, stop.
I won't do it.
- Scarlett, don't do it. - Listen to me...
- Don't do it. - I didn't believe in you.
OK? I thought you were a figment of my imagination, just some false memory.
But then we found each other.
We figured out the truth and we remembered who we are.
Why we're here.
It was for a reason.
All of it.
What're you doing, Scarlett?
Don't do it.
- Scarlett. - You.
You will end the Dark One.
Please don't.
- Don't do it. - You.
- No. - You.
Scarlett, no.
Don't do it.
- THEY SCREAM - No!
HE SOBS
Scarlett, no!
VANESSA SCREAMS
SHE CRIES
No!
VANESSA SOBS
No!
SHE SOBS
I gave you everything.
I gave you everything I had just to save you.
And you do this?
SHE SOBS
- You could have stopped her. - VANESSA SOBS
You're the strong one!
You can't fight the darkness.
You are the darkness!
AXEL GROANS
Let me go, you miserable hag bitch!
THE ORACLE CACKLES
What have you done?
You had to purge the light in your heart, that is true
but that step, you took it already.
The darkness already defeated the light.
In your heart, you know.
What're you talking about?
Your little girl.
Dylan.
No, I... I tried to save her.
THE ORACLE: But did you?
You bit her.
Turned her human again
and then she died.
Because of you, she did.
- You meant to... - No.
No, I did not sacrifice her.
THE ORACLE: But you did!
You could have stopped her but you didn't.
That's how deep the darkness goes.
The sister, Scarlett...
she died for nothing.
For nothing!
If I ever see you again, I'll kill you.
You hear me, Vanessa?
I'll kill all of you.
THUNDER RUMBLES
My sister's sacrifice won't be for nothing.
I will defeat the Dark One...
because I am the light.
THE ORACLE: Such a gift you were offered.
Such a disappointment you have been.
Pity.

Whoever she is, you can't help her now, but you can still help us.
Over there. Survivors.
We secure them, escort them out.
Let's move.
Hold on. Wait a second.
This doesn't look obvious to you?
What, that they're being held hostage?
JULIUS: That they're bait.
NGUYEN: We can't leave 'em.
Listen to me.
This is what we're gonna do.
Scab!
I know you're in here.
It's me you want.
What're you waiting for?

It's me you've always wanted.

You can't.

There's another way.
Trust me.
There is no other way.
The Van Helsings end now.
What other way?
Together.
