== Incorporated themes ==
After 5 months passed, after the old town was destroyed by Michelle's father. They started a new life in a new city.
Sophie Goss, who had never met her biological father, was finally picked up by her father at the airport. Galang also moved to a new city as well as Sisi who was moved by his parents. Whether it's a coincidence or not, the Valen, Simona, Galang, and Sisi families are actually one city. On the other hand, the Vallen family has a new member, Tania. Tania eventually becomes part of the Vallen family.
The war between the Wolves against the Vampires was still going on, but in the end, they made peace, but then Vee was not satisfied and devoted himself to being Dracula. The Wolf and Vampire camp was then overwhelmed by Vee's action which caused the deaths of several Werewolves and Vampires as well as local residents.
In later years the series explores other complex issues such as maintaining peace between rival groups and dealing with family feuds. Agra and Renfield are dead set on revenge against the Vlad family. Necessary violence is also a theme and the protagonist makes several decisions which are questioned by the other characters. The series is perhaps unafraid to have an element of darkness about it, making it different from quite a lot of other children's series.
