When Hell gets Loose
By:Danni Lynn
Chapter 1:Death
~+!Seras's Pov!+~
I leaned back in my coffin thinking of my old life in Chedar. Everything changed so fast when I met master Alucard. That reminds me where is master Alucard? I haven't seen him in what? A couple of years now? Major escaped and is loose. Walter is dead. Pip survived and the rest of his fleet but the manor got burned down. Mistress Integra was pissed but it was pretty funny. I sighed lost in thought but then there was a knock on the door.
"Miss Victoria. Miss Integra would like to see you."
A voice called from the door. I pulled open the lid and crept out of my coffin.
"Thank you."
I replied as I fazed from my room into Integra's office. I stared at her from the shadows as she lied on her bed.
"Seras. I know your there. Come to me."
I walked over to her. She looked at me through dull and tired eyes.
"Seras. I'm dying."
Miss Integra told me as her voice cracked with age. I looked down at the ground trying to hide my burning eyes. A small smile formed on the once iron madain fairly known as Integra Hellsing. Miss Integra had cuaght a disease after the fight with Major and had been bed ridden since. The disease had gotten worse over the years. The doctors couldn't find a cure to the unknown disease and Miss Integra was getting weaker and her body was aging faster than a human should.
"Don't cry Sares. You'll be free soon. Able to live life as you please. The doctors say I've only got a couple of days to live that's what they think. I think doctors are all quacks but who am I to speak against them when I'll be dead soon?"
Integra sighed with a hint of saddness edged in her voice.
"I can always kill you know and get it over with."
I offered teasing Miss Integra. She looked at me and smiled as she pulled out a rifle from under her covers. She pointed it at me as she unlocked the safty swich.
"Say that again and you'll be joining me in hell Seras."
Integra snapped as she put her finger on the trigger. I put my hands up in defense.
"Alright. Alright. Calm down old lady. Jeez who knew half dead poeple could have the strength to point a rifle at a vampire?"
I pressed as I grinned at her. Integra's lips twitched and she pulled the trigger but shot at the ground near my feet. I jumped back in surprise.
"Call me old lady and I'll make sure you have no body parts left to bury."
Integra warned me as she put the rifle back under the covers. Why does she have a gun under her bed? What does she think? That Major is going to come in and kill her right on the spot? I luaghed at my thoughts. But got back to reality as Miss Integra coughed to get my attention.
"I called you here Seras that I want you to burn my body when I die. And that the entire Hellsing organzition is to be ended. The troops are to be gone. The Hellsing manor belongs to you and Alucard. That is all. You may go."
Integra finished telling me her will as she closed her eyes and fell asleep. Her breathing was wheezy and shallow. I nodded to her in respect and fazed out of the room. Leaving my sleeping master to peacefully rest.I stepped out of a portal and walked out onto the cool grass. The wind rustled the trees making the branches sway as the moon radaited above lighting the darkness like a shinning star. I walked along the fence that bordered the Hellsing property. Where was Master when you needed him? I sighed as blood filled tears ran down my pale cheeks. I ran my fingers along the bars of the fence feeling the cold metal against my skin. I looked out at the land that seemed to stretch as far as I could see. What was the point of having enternal life only to see poeple you cared about die and age when you know niether? My mind raced like a storm that felt like would never end. My bloody tears felt like drops of my unlife that I would never get back. I knew I shouldn't be crying because I knew Miss Integra was going to die eventchually but why did it have to be so soon? I cried out silently as I strolled along the fence. I was so absorbed in my thoughts that it was dawn already. The sun peaked out behind the hills to the east. I opened a portal and fazed back into my room and slid back into my coffin and let sleep comsume me like the shadows I walk in.
There was a sudden knock that distrubed me from my dreams. I tried to get up but only wounded up bumping my head on my coffin lid. I slid it open while rubbing my sore head.
"Yes?"
I called out as I walked towards the door. When I opened it there stood a doctor with a frown. His medical clothes dyed blue as he looked at me with frightened eyes. I smiled hoping to reassure the scared doctor but that only seemed to make it worse.
"Mistress Integra has passed. That is all."
The doctor quivered and fled as soon as he finished the massage. My eye brows furrowed togather as I tried to wrap my head on the situation. But when I finally understood I crumpled to the floor like a crushed leaf. My shoulders drooped and I stared at the floor like a lifeless corpse. Then I remembered Miss Integra's will and knew I had to carry it out. I got to my feet and walked up to Integra's office. I passed soldiers and painting that filled the manor. The laughs of the men echoed on the walls as the paintings stared at you as you walk down the manor's corridors. When I reached Integra's office a couple of doctors walked out of her room but when they glanced at me they stared at me like as if I was the devil itself. I walked past them without a second glance and trudged up to my master's bed. Integra was pale and lifeless. Her face was cold and blankless. I ran a finger down her cheek and felt the skin of the dead against my own lifeless skin. Her hands were locked togather over her chest as her blanket was pulled up to her waist. I pulled my hand back and silently nodded a goodbye to my Mistress Integra.
"Goodbye. I will follow out your last cammand my Mistress."
I gave my farewell and walked up to the only doctor left in the room. She looked at me with curosity as I walked up to her.
"My Mistress was asked to be cream maded can you handle that?"
I asked the young female doctor. She nodded and I dragged my feet out of my late master's office. I went up to a soldier that use to be part of Pip's old troop but when Pip died many quit. The soldier turned to look at me and grinned.
"Miss Victoria what can I do for you?"
The soldier asked me.
"Assemble all of the troops and send them out to the front of the manor for anounement. Quickly."
I ordered the soldier. The soldier nodded and ran off down the hall. I stared at the soldier till he turned a corner and was out of sight. I ran a hand through my blond hair and heaved a sigh of unneeded breath. Damn Master Alucard your a bastard not to be here on Mistress Integra's death. I cursed my master. I fazed out onto the front of the Hellsing manor and saw the rallied soldiers. Their faces marked with confusion and interest as they chatted upon themselves like a flock of birds. As I walked out of the portal and into view they instantly became quiet and turned to look at me waiting to be told the ugent news. I stared at them with fierce and commanding eyes.
"I have called you all togather to tell you that Mistress Integra Hellsing has passed. She has told me to tell you all that you are free and can no longer come back to the Hellsing property. You have twenty-four hours to pack up your stuff and leave. That is all. I bid you farewell."
I finished with a bow to the Hellsing soldiers. Many cried out with rage and others with pleas. I took no notice as I sulked back into the manor and fazed to my room. I walked over to my chair and pulled it out from under the small wooden table. I sat down and lied my head on the table and let the tears fall down. I cried myself to sleep while leaving a puddle of blood filled tears on the table.
Weeks pasted and Seras is growing weak from the lack of blood packets. She simply refuses to drink the blood of the living which is turning out to be fatal.
I walked throught the empty chambers of the Hellsing feeling more alone than ever. As each day passes I feel weaker. I miss the laughs of the soldiers they made the manor feel lively and happy. Now it just feels like a old house. The soldiers are gone. Miss Integra is gone. Alucard is no where to found. And yet I am the only one here who has bothered to stay. The nights are peaceful and quiet but lonely. I'm to weak to faze so now I have to walk what a bore and annoying away of getting around now that I know how to faze. These thoughts whirled in my head as I walked up to the roof of the manor. I sat down on the roof and stared up at the star filled sky. The Hellsing property is vast and wide but when only person owns it you might as well be better off with a home under a bridge. I wonder what Master Alucard had been doing all these years. I think next month will make it twevle years since the battle with the Major? I don't know I lost count the second year.
"What's the point of being a vampire and not having anyone to share it with? It sure is lonely."
I muttered to myself as I pulled my knees to my chest and glanced out onto the Hellsing property.
"I think your finally starting to understand what it means to be a vampire, Police girl."
A voice came from behind me. I didn't look back to see who it was but peered into the darkness. I rested my chin on my knees and closed my eyes.
"Your late."
I answered knowing the replie. Anger and joy flarred in my belly like a spark of light.
"So where is everyone? Its awfully quiet around here. I believe I should stirr somethings up. Would you like to come Police girl?"
My Master Alucard chuckled as he walked in front of me with his long red coat flapping slightly in the wind.
"Master, your an arrogant fool. Go look for yourself."
I told him but he looked at me as anger began to set off like a bomb fuse.
"You shall not talk to your master like that!"
Alucard snapped as he picked me up by the collar and bared his fangs at me. I stared at him emotionlessly waiting to see his reaction.
"What is wrong with you?"
Alucard growled as he stared at me in the eyes. A flicker of rage sparked a fire in my mind. With sudden strength I pushed Alucard off me and threw him off the roof. But he fazed behind me and slammed his heavey boot on my body pinning me to the roof. I grabbed his leg and twisted his entire body and tossed him away from me a couple of feet away. Alucard skidded across the shingles of the manor's roof-top knocking off some shingles off the roof. He stumbled upward to gain balance once more. I ran to him ready to punch him but I was already at my limit and instead wound up collsaping into his arms. I fell to my knees as I clung to his coat. He caught me while I was falling. My senses faltered and my vision was starting to blur.
"Seras what happened?"
Alucard softly whispered to me as he tried to keep me standing. I leaned into his chest trying to stay awake.
"Please..."
I whispered to him before everything grew dark.
~+!Alucard's Pov!+~
I stared at Seras as she grew unconscouis. Seras lost gripped and went limp. I wrapped her in my arms and picked her up into my arms. Her body was cold and paler than usual. She mustn't be eating properly. No wonder she collasped. I fazed into her room and lied her down in her coffin. I pulled a chair from the small table and pulled it next to the coffin and sat in it. I stared at her sleeping face. She'll get angry if she finds me sitting here next to her coffin. I can't wait to see her expression. Heh heh. This'll be funny. I smirked as I leaned back in the chair. I looked around her small room. Nothing like my chamber. I rule. I exaggerated to myself. How long has it been since I was last here? I can't remember I didn't have time to keep count. Damn that Major. I cursed silently. I took out my jackel and ran my hand around the muzzle. I was awed at its bueaty that such a weapon was so deadly but yet so magnificaint in everyway. As I admired my Jackel a piece of white caught the coner of my eye on the table. I got up and picked it up. It was a piture. It held a family of three. They were all smiling without a care in the world. It reminded me of my family I had before I became a vampire and all the walls came crashing down. I flipped over the picture and saw writing on it.
I'm sorry.
Was the only thing that was written on it. I placed it back on the table and sat back down. I leaned forward and brushed Seras's bangs out of her face. She looked as peacful as the dead itself. Her eye lid twitched. She opened her eyes and looked up at me. She pushed my hand aside that was holding her bangs. She blinked then frowned as she sat up in her coffin.
"What?"
I asked with disappointment that her reaction was so casual. Seras turned her pale face towards me and narrowed her eyes. She put her hand to her to cover her eyes as if the light was annoying her which was unsual.
"Turn of that light its bothering me."
Seras ordered me like a little servant boy. I leaned back in my chair with a smirk as I tipped my hat up to see her better. She looked at me and rolled her eyes.
"Fine. I'll do it myself."
Seras grumbled in anger as she got out of her coffin and flipped the switch off leaving her whole room covered in total darkness but I could see just fine in the dark. Then she got back in her coffin and grabbed the lid to pull over but I put my foot on the edge stopping her from covering the coffin with the lid.
"What do you want?"
Seras snapped at me as she glared at me.
"What happened to everyone? Why is the manor quiet and where is Integra?"
I simply wanted to know. Seras casted her eyes away from my direction and avoided my gaze.
"I'm tired let me sleep."
Seras mumbled as she shoved my foot of the lid and covered her coffin with her lid. I knocked on the coffin.
"Police girl, can you at least tell if there is any blood packets still fresh?"
I wondered as my hunger made me forget about the poeple in the manor.
"There are none. They ran out about five weeks ago. Now go bother the wall or something."
Seras retorted to me through the coffin. I kicked her coffin in anger and pushed the lid of the coffin. Seras looked up at me pissed off. Her normal blue eyes turned to red. I grinned in satisfaction that I was finally getting a reaction. But it didn't last long and her eyes switched back to blue. Seras lied back down and looked up at the ceiling.
"You haven't been drinking blood have you Police girl?"
I asked her as my hunger increased. Seras averted my eyes. She mumbled something I couldn't hear.
"What did you say?"
I asked her.
"Is that any of you business?"
She barked at me. I took of my hat and covered her face with it just so I could lift her up and pull her over my shoulder. My hat fluttered to the floor as Seras pounded her fists on my back like a child throwing a fit.
"It is when my own fledging is starving herself. Now let us go find something to eat. Your to weak to escape and you know that."
I told her as I opened a portal and walked through it. I fazed into an alley behind a building. I set Seras down on the ground and grinned at the sight of her pouting.
"Your a jerk. Has anyone ever told you that?"
Seras sighed as she stood up and scraped off dirt from her skirt.
"Plenty of times. Well just not to my face at least."
I replied as she gave me a death look. I lead her onto a street that led out to a bar. A group of men stumbled out through the doors and into the cold night. Seras turned to look at me dumbfounded.
"Your not seruoisly suggesting..."
Seras stopped as I pushed her into the middle of the street. She fell down and gave a yelp of surprise loud enough just for the tipsy men to hear. They looked up at Seras and grinned. The bounded up towards her and took out some cash. I pressed myself into the shadows waiting for the right moment.
"Heyos chicky. Wanna have a good time with me? I'll make it worth your while."
One of the men hicced as he waved cash in Seras's face. She looked up at him and shyly shook her head.
"Aw come on."
The man grabbed her arm tightly. She tried pulling him off but she was so weak she was no stronger than a new born infante. Another man grabbed her hair and yanked her up. She squealed with fright.
"Stop being so stubborn come with me."
The other man tugged her hair while the other men grabbed her and pulled her like a toy. I stepped out of the shadows and appeared behing one of the men.
"Hello."
I greeted him as I kneed him in the back that he went sprawling to the ground. I knocked the rest of them out and tried to help Seras up. She slapped away my hand stood up.
"I don't need your he-"
Seras growled but stopped as she swayed and crumpled to the ground I caught her in mid-air. For a couple of seconds she didn't say anything as she leaned into my chest. But she pulled away and looked at the men that lay splayed around the ground.
"Go ahead and eat. Cause if you don't then I'll have them all to myself."
I suggested as I picked up one and pulled it towards her. She weakly shook her head and pushed the man away.
"I'm not hungry."
She told me. I shrugged and devoured the man for all his worth. I didn't waste a single drop on any of them. When I was done I licked my lips savoring the test and grinned with satisfaction.
"Your loss. I can force you to where I want but I can't force you to drink. You'll regret that later. Now let's go back. It'll be dawn soon."
I pulled Seras into my grip and led her into a portal and fazed into her room. She didn't say a thing as she got into her coffin and went to sleep. I fazed into my chamber and walked over to my chair. I sat on it and smirked. Can't wait till tomorrow. I thought as sleep pulled me under beneath the tide.
~+!Seras's Pov!+~
The wail of sirens rung out in the dark. It grew louder and louder. I tried to block out the sound by putting my hands over my ears but I stopped when I felt something wet on my hands. I looked at them only to find it covered in blood. I looked around wildly only to see blood stain the ground and people looking at me with disgust and hatred. I wailed to them it wasn't my fault but as I stepped towards them they backed away. Then someone grabbed my hand and pulled me away.
"Stop! Please Stop!"
I screamed as I bolted up. I blinked trying to comprehend what was happening. I was holding Alucard by the throat while my nails into his flesh that I was drawing blood. I quickly let go.
"Sorry, master. I didn't mean to."
I apologized. I felt a hand on my head. I looked up to see Alucard grinning.
"I told you that it was your loss if you didn't drink. Now look at you."
Alucard sighed. I wiped the blood on my shirt but Alucard stopped me.
"Don't waste it."
He stated at he let go. I nodded and licked my fingers clean of the blood. My hunger intensified and my body craved more. I tried to calm it but try as I might it wouldn't work. Alucard looked down at me expecting what was to come and stayed silent as a grin made its way on his face.
"Seras come here."
He softly ordered as he pulled me into his arms. I looked up into his red eyes and felt a chill run down my spine. Without noticing it I was already reaching up to his neck but flashes of my dream caused me to stop. I shook my head trying to rid my mind of the images but then the faces of people I once knew appeared in my mind. Their voices rung in my mind all togather making my ears hurt. I cupped my ears with my hands trying to block out the voices as they kept screaming at me. I shook my head as they just kept getting louder.
"Seras! Seras!"
I stopped dazed as the voices just suddenly disappeared. I blinked as my gaze went to Alucard's face. He was gripping me on the shoulders. His face lined with concern. I broke down and cried into his arms.
"Its not my fault. Its not my fault."
I sobbed as I slowly fell to the floor. The memory of that dream was like reopening long forgotten wounds that I thought I had cut ties with. I thought I was free but I was wrong. Alucard slowly cooed to me as he rocked me back in forth. When I finally calmed down Alucard stood up. I looked at him with a questioning face.
"I'll be right back Police girl."
Alucard fazed out of my room. I leaned against my coffin and wiped away my remaining tears. I stared at the wall because I could no longer stand. My head felt light and my vision was blurry. I barly had the strength to lift my arm. My body was weak and it reminded me of the time when my life had ended and my unlife had started. Dieing felt like as if all the joy is getting sucked out of you because you know you will never again watch the sun rise and feel the water on your skin or run through the fields and felt like you were flying. Being on the border of life and death is like feeling your body rip in half as you slowly loose your sight and shadows seem to be everywhere and voices ring in your ears beckoning you to join them in thier ranks of dead. They softly pull you towards them and being a vampire is no help. Being a vampire means your a being of taking life and giving unlife in return. You will never know the glow of the sun or the warmth of its rays. Only the darkness of moon and cold of the biting wind. You are meant to be alone for enternity. If being alone in ever lasting darkness was the main package of the deal than I would have let my life end. But oh well I'm still alive and standing in some way or another. I reasoned with myself.
"That's the spirit police girl. Now eat up and don't waste it. We have all enternity to sit and wait for you to eat this."
Alucard joked as he threw a body next to my feet and dropped a couple of other bodies on the table. Alucard licked his lips.
"Thanks but bloody hell did you have to get all them?"
I asked. Alucard grinned and sat in the chair next to my coffin. I tried to reach over and pick up the body but I couldn't even manage that. I closed my eyes and tried to gather some strength but it was no use. I was to weak to even drink. Alucard saw my fusterated state and picked me up.
"This is what you get for refusing to drink. When was the last time you did drink fresh blood?"
Alucard looked at me as he let me lean against his chest. I thought about it and tried to remember.
"I think about five or six weeks ago."
I replied as my body pleaded me for sleep. Alucard looked at me startled.
"Really? An averge vampire can only last at least three weeks before they turn into a corpse and just sit and collect dust because they no longer posses the strength to feed themselves. But five or six weeks? Dang even I could barly last that long."
Alucard complemented me. Sleep called for me and I wanted to take it but Alucard kept nudging me awake.
"Don't fall asleep you might not wake up for another century or two. Now drink this."
Alucard lifted up my head and sliced his palm with his nail. Blood came trickling through the cut and dropped to the floor. I watched it drip and fall hungerly. Alucard brought his palm to my mouth and let the crimson liquid flow into my mouth. As more blood came little by little my strength started to return. My fangs exstended into his hand but unluckly for me I didn't reach the vien and got little blood. I pushed Alucard to the floor and reach up for his neck. My fangs hovered over the vien before I bit down. I quickly gulped the sweet blood down as its irony taste hit my tongue. I tried to drink every drop but Alucard pried me off of him. He wagged his finger at me.
"That's why I brought them. I had my own meal last night and we can hunt again later if your still hungry. Now eat up. They're still alive just unconscuois."
Alucard explained to me. I licked my lips and headed for the closes body and drank. Even after I finishe off everyone of them were drained from every last drop my body still craved for more. Alucard grinned with he saw my annoyed face.
"Still hungry I assume. Not surprising you did last quite long without blood so you must be really thirsty but we'll hunt later."
Alucard explained I gave a snort of anger and sat down on the floor. I did feel much better than I was earlier but I was still a tad sleepy. I stood up and yawned.
"I'm going outside do you want to come master?"
I invited him. Before he could answer I fazed out onto the front yard. Alucard stepped out of a portal next to me and gapped.
"When were you able to faze?"
He asked me as he raised an eyebrow in interest. I looked over my shoulder and grinned.
"Sametime I learned this."
My fimilair came out. Alucard stared at the white tiger as her red eyes peered out at Alucard. My master smiled and let his own fimilair out. My white tiger gave the dog a supisuois look as she walked up to me and purred.
"Her name is Miya."
I told him as I gently petted her head.
"While you were away I learned a couple of my own tricks."
I explained Miya once again became part of me and I looked up at my master. He looked at me with keen interest but he didn't say anything. Suddenly I fazed out of the yard and onto the roof. I sat and waited for Alucard to find me as I looked up at the moon. Suddenly there was a screech and I looked around for what made the sound but no one was there.
"Stop Seras! Please stop!"
A voice screamed I kept searching for the person who was screaming but I couldn't find anyone there.
"Seras! No!"
Another voice yelled. I tried to block them out but when I covered my ears they still kept screaming. I shook my head trying to cut them out but it didn't help. I blinked and I was standing in a hallway bathed in blood with bodies everywhere. I looked down and saw a knife in my hand dripping with blood. I screamed as I dropped the blade. I put my hands in my face and screamed as the images stayed as clear as day.
"Seras!"
I looked up and saw a police man looking at me. Sudden rage filled me and I grabbed the man by throat and squeezed. He struggled against me as he tried to push me off. I blinked and saw Alucard looking at me as he tried to get my hands to let go that were locked around his throat. Thankfully vampires don't need to breath so he wasn't in danger just in pain. I let go and turned away.
"I'm sorry."
I quickly apologized as I fazed back into my room. I leaned agianst the the wall and stared at the floor. Why did I do that? Why does this keep happening? Am I losing my mind? I don't know! I don't know! I silenty cried out as I slid down the wall and pulled my knees up to my chest and buried my face in my hands. My thoughts whirled with fright and fear. Alucard did not return to my room for the rest of the night. I eventchually cried myself to sleep.
I hoped you liked it. The next chapter will be up soon. Please review. No mean comments you may point out spelling and grammer issues. Thank you for reading.
