Beta readers: Thanks to Melissa_actress and IceAngel for the wonderful comments and critique they offered with this story. It's a better story for their involvement with it. If you find something wrong, it's not because they didn't try. I probably changed something after they were done. :)

Summary: TITLE: Battle Cry (or Your Momma)

AUTHOR: Cousin Shelley

FEEDBACK: Sure! csnshelley@yahoo.com

FANDOM: Van Helsing

WARNINGS: Slash

NOTES: There's this little WonderfulAwfulHorrible meme going around LiveJournal called "What's your battle cry?" that sparked the following tragedy. Sairalinde 's battle cry was sufficiently funny that I tried it. Then she commented something to the effect of "Can't you just hear Carl saying that?" After reading the battle cries of several people on my friend's list, I found myself, against my will, imagining Carl saying most of them, in the context of one of my favorite movies. Remember when Robin William's character is trying to teach poetry and he gets an introverted student to blurt out 'sweaty toothed madman' in The Dead Poets' Society? *sigh* This is dedicated to, and completely blamed upon sairalinde. Her fault. Aim whatever things you throw in her direction, please. Though from what I understand, fruit will only encourage her.

Summary: A very short 3-part story.

Part 1, Nothing, is the beautiful work of Marylou at ktrianta2001@yahoo.com and is actually a stand-alone story that I loved so much, I was inspired to write two companion pieces. I appreciate her letting me grab her baby and tousle his hair, and for the permission to post her story along with mine.
