We start where we left off in Season 1. Dmitri’s citadel crumbles in chaos as Vanessa searches for her daughter. Vanessa tracks and rescues her genetically-engineered hateful vampire daughter from Dr. Shomoloke. On their way out of the citadel, they are pursued by Antonasia’s army of bloodsuckers, and Mohamad stayed behind to buy Vanessa and Dylan some time. Meanwhile, the now-vampire Axel reunites with Doc and they are on a mission to find Vanessa. Dylan escapes and runs to Julius. Vanessa then turns Julius back into a human. Vanessa, however, fails to cure Dylan, who burns up and turns to ash after being exposed to sunlight. Her screams of grief awaken an ancient, sleeping vampire. While on an adventure to unlock the Elder’s mystery, Vanessa meets her sister Scarlett Harker. Vanessa is kidnapped and taken by Dr. Harrison, while Dmitri hunts Scarlett and the group to recover the key to the Elder’s crypt. Scarlett meets their mother at Crooked Falls and they race Dmitri to the Elder’s crypt. Under Dmitri’s coercion, Abigail Van Helsing opens the crypt and frees the Elder. It turns out that the Elder is bound to the obligation to protect the Van Helsing line. He fatally injures Abigail, successfully kills Dmitri, and awakens the dead Vanessa.
