Magicand VampiresDon't Mix
Chapter 1:Blood Sucking Weirdoes
Plot by: The Can-Can group
-------------------------------------------------------------
It was weird.
She felt herself float around in the nothingness. She was the only thing that existed. There wasn't dark, nor light. There wasn't any Earth, Solar system, Galaxies, the Universe, just the unbearable pain blossoming from her head and flowing to all parts of her body.
Then it just…
…Stopped.
That's when the change happened. Her canines became white and pearly daggers hanging from her gums. Her muscles became stronger without gaining any of their mass. Her blood left her, leaving her very weak and tired.
Wisps of her auburn hair floated around her gently, like she was in water, swimming gently with the current. She felt free and happy as she just floated and wished that it could remain like this for the rest of her life.
Unfortunately, that blinding light coming at her in masses had other plans for her. She wasn't sure if it was causing pain or if there wasn't any pain there at all.
In her mind, she was screaming for someone to help her…
&&&
The energy hit her hard and fast. It had felt like a beacon of some sort and came from someone who needed help, immediately. Her crystal blue eyes blinked as she looked towards her master, whom seemed to have felt it too, judging by the way his skin was paler then usual. "Master?" She asked questioningly as her master, the feared Alucard, got up and made to leave the room.
"Come police girl, we shall see what caused it." Seras sighed, she wished that her master would stop calling her that; it's starting to become annoying.
The humans in the room looked up as the two vampires made their way to the only set of doors in the room. They were having meeting about the sudden rising of more ghouls and Seras and Alucard were to partake in the meeting since, essentially, they are the ones to get rid of them. The humans looked back to the one that called them all there, the one who ruled the Hellsing Organization, and the only female to have done so in the past two hundred years, Sir Integra Fairbrooks Wingates Hellsing
The cigar in her mouth laid lazily to one side as she looked up to her servant and the girl. "Where are you two going?" She asked in an exasperated way. The two vampires were suppose to help give ideas about what to do with the sudden surplus of the ghouls, but if they aren't there to help plan, then they can't deal with them and then the meeting would become pointless.
His blood red eyes could be seen through the space between his yellow glasses and his red hat as they fell onto the blond haired woman sitting at the head of the table. With a small smirk he replied, "There's something that we need to see too." Short and cryptic, the usual Alucard way of answering direct questions coming from anyone, even if the question is from his master.
Seras could tell that Integra wanted to pound her head on something, she would too if Alucard were to do that to her, but he does, on a regular basis and she has become accustomed to it.
"Fine, just be back sometime before sunrise so that we might have a meeting about the ghouls," Integra sighed. She dismissed the rest of the members of the "round table". Immediately they all got into discussions about politics and what not.
Alucard went out of the room wordlessly, with Seras following behind on his heels. They walked the maze-like corridors of the building, coming out to the front of the building, where the gate is only a few yards ahead at the end of a dirt road that only members were allowed to use. Just as Seras was about to open the gate, Alucard stopped her. "Here," was all he said as he handed her one of his "precious" guns. "I have a feeling that we weren't the only ones who was called out to."
Seras looked at the gun, it was light as air, of course, even her huge gun felt that way too, but that was because when she was changed, she grew stronger than the average human(s). She looked at it happily as they went through the large black gate, leading to the streets of London. To her, the gun that Alucard gave her, was a symbol that he actually cared for her and wasn't some bastard with no emotions what so ever. He was like a father to her, an uncaring one at that fact and matter, but a father nonetheless.
"The reason why I gave you the gun is because we don't have enough time to go and get yours." Alucard said over his shoulder.
Seras glared at him. "Stop reading my mind, and if you do, don't tell me that you did."
He smirked at her. "But I wasn't reading your mind my dear police girl, I can read your face like an open book."
"Well, stop reading my 'open book face' then!" she growled out.
They fell into a silence after Seras's last comment. Their shoes made light tapping noise as they walked along the dark, misty streets of London. If Seras hadn't lived there for all of her life, she'd probably be scared of any rapists that lurk in the shadows of the alleys. The thought made her laugh, for a second there, she forgot that she was a vampire and didn't really need to worry about and rapist or anything that might attack her. If she really thought about it, it would be kind of ironic if someone were to attack her, especially since weren't the vampires the ones that used to stalk its prey before they started pilfering the hospitals of their blood donations?
"You'd better prepare yourself, there's some ghouls up ahead," Alucard's smooth voice said, breaking her thoughts.
Seras instantly cocked her gun, moving it side to side in a sweeping motion so that she can destroy the ghoul on the first try if it moves to either her left or right. Alucard had his other gun prepared in one of his hands. He walked forward, with no care about his safety (like he ever has…) where as Seras walked behind cautiously, a habit from when she was still a human and could feel actual pain.
Another wave of power hit them as they walked along the block. It was stronger than the first and seemed to drag a feeling of fear along with it. "Who ever just sent that is very afraid," Seras said, looking up at her master. "Do you think they found him all ready?"
Alucard shook his head. "By the way, there's a ghoul on the building with his gun pointed towards you," he said in a nonchalant way.
Seras nearly panicked as she pointed her gun in the direction that Alucard had just pointed to. With a small hesitation, Seras pulled the trigger, blasting the other ghoul's head off. "Next time, give me a better warning ahead of time!" She yelled at her master, momentarily forgetting that he could kill her, despite the fact that vampires aren't that easy to kill in the first place.
"Okay then, there's another behind the dumpster," Alucard said a ghost of a smirk on his face as the girl destroyed the ghoul in a heartbeat.
They continued their trek slowly, killing and destroying the ghouls as they go along. It also seemed that the pulse-like energy wave was getting stronger with every step and was becoming more frequent. Its power made Seras want to go and suck in whatever was causing, if she had that much power, then people will finally have to give her the respect that she so richly deserves. She could be the master and Alucard could be the helpless servant that can't do anything right. She smiled gleefully at the thought and was about to make a run for it; unfortunately, Alucard's white-gloved hand was restraining her from doing so. "Control yourself, try not succumb to the power, you'll just be leading yourself to your ruin."
She blinked her eyes, regaining some of her senses in the process. "What was I doing again?"
"Nothing, I think we are almost there, considering the fact that there's ghouls all over the place."
What Alucard had just stated was quite in fact literal, they were all over the place, on roofs, behind trees, trashcans, newsstands, parked cars, out in the middle of the street, everywhere. In the center of it all, was a girl, curdle up into a small ball, her hands on her head. A shinning light surrounded her and in the center was a wing-shaped shield suspended in the light. The ghouls kept jumping towards the shield, only to be thrown away from it in the next moment. The ghouls were so preoccupied that they didn't even notice the two vampires that had just joined them.
The girl in the center of the masses started to cringe and wince at something. The shield/ barrier started to flicker on and off, as it grew weaker and weaker. "Master! The thing is starting to give!"
"Cover me." Alucard made a path for himself by shooting the ghouls out of his way. Seras just stared after his back, somewhat surprised at him. After a few moments, she remembered his parting words and blasted any ghouls that got close to Alucard.
Alucard himself just went through the crowd like you would through air. If they attacked him, he would just heal and give them a taste of lead. He moved slowly towards the girl, taking deliberate steps and shots along the way. The shield finally gave out as he reached the girl. Immediately the masses made a rush for her, but weren't fast enough to get there in time before they were all shot down by either Alucard or Seras.
In the next few moments, most of the ghouls were lying in bits and pieces, littering the road with their organs.
Seras rushed to the girl's side in order to see if she was still alive, and if she was, ask her about the weird shield that was protecting her from the offending attackers. She first checked her vitals to see if she is still alive, and upon discovering that the girl was still alive, she checked to see if she was scathed in any possible way. Her dress was torn in several places, most of which had blood soaking the material, suggesting that she was badly hurt, but she wasn't. All the wounds were healed; they didn't even leave any scars behind. This prompted Seras to check the girl's mouth to see if she has any fangs…
She did.
"Master!" Seras called out for her master, prompting him to come over to her too see what the matter was. "Look, she has fangs and all her wounds are healed."
Alucard gave his servant an 'are-you-an-idiot?' look. "Those are normally signs of a vampire," he said as if he was talking to a child.
"I know that," Seras huffed. "It's just that… she has a pulse, a small one and it's almost gone, but a pulse none the less."
Alucard snapped his attention to the girl. It isn't possible, there are no such things as half-vampires, it physically can't be done. Either you area human, a ghoul or a vampire, there is no mix between any of the groups. How was it that this girl is the only one of her kind? Who did this to her? Why? Alucard pondered the unanswerable question as he lifted the girl up from her huddled position on the ground.
"What are you-?"
"We are taking her with us, she's most likely cause trouble if she is left her to her own devices," Alucard explained as they began traveling back to the building.
"What happens if her master comes looking for her?" Seras asked in mild confusion.
Alucard looked down to the sleeping girl in his arms. "I don't think that she has one, there isn't any bonds of ownership between her and another."
Seras pondered on what her master had just said. This girl is unnatural; she's a variable that can change everything and challenge the laws of species and any other rules of nature. Seras began to doubt if it was a good idea to bring the girl with them.
…………………………
A warm smile, a kind face, they are starting to blend into the darkness and slowly disappearing, never to be seen again.
……………………….
Her emerald eyes opened up, a sleepy glaze still enthralled inside of them. Her hand fluttered up to her head as the pounding headache settled in. Her eyes began to focus and that's when she realized that the ceiling wasn't familiar, or at least, what she suspected to be normal…
She leaned up and caught sight of a young woman with short blond hair, sleeping on a chair near to the bed, drool slowly coming out of the side of her mouth. Just as she was about to wake the woman up to ask where she was, the door to the room opened up with a loud bang, waking the other occupant of the room.
"How many times do I have to tell you to keep your damn fangs to yourself?" A woman with longer blond hair came in, screeching at the trailing vampire behind her. "First Seras and now this? Who are you going to change next? The hot dog vendor down the street?"
"Why? Do you want me to change-"
"Don't you get smart with me!" The woman reprimanded as she turned around to face her subordinate, whom was now smirking at her. "Why did you change her?"
"He didn't," yawned Seras as she got up from her uncomfortable position in the chair. "She was changed by some else."
Integra calmed down at the new info, at least her vampire wasn't the one to do the changing. "Then how come she isn't with her master? If her master was dead, wouldn't she be dead too?"
"That's the problem," Alucard said as he stared at the girl who was staring right back at him. "She seems to only be half vampire, meaning she can move around independently, also, there's something that is off about her, like something's trying to cleanse her of the vampire part of her."
Integra glanced at the girl in question. "Is that even possible?" Alucard not responding meant that he had no clue, and was just as confuse as everyone else. She sighed as she made her way to the girl. "What is your name?"
The girl just blinked. "Name?"
"Yes, what is your name?"
The girl closed her eyes in concentration. She seemed to be thinking long and hard about the question for a few moments. When she finally did reopen her eyes, she said, "I think its Sakura."
Integra was in mild surprise. "You think its Sakura?" She turned to the other occupants of the room. "She defiantly has amnesia," she said slightly disappointed, she wanted to know more about the girl.
"Amnesia?" The girl, Sakura asked, confusion and a feeling of lost ness evident.
"Its when everything you know, cherish, remember, love, hate, leaves you for an unknown length of time," Alucard answered, his smile was twisted and cruel, like he enjoyed tormenting Sakura.
"Can you help me find those things?" Sakura asked, putting her complete trust into their hands. Seras was the one to smile and reply, "Of course! We are somewhat nice people, we'll help you."
"Now?"
Integra shook her head. "No, you need to rest first, afterwards, there is some stuff that we are going to have to explain to you. Walter will show you to your room."
An elderly gentleman entered the room. His grey hair was pulled back into a ponytail at the nape of his neck and a spectacle overtops his left eye. He gave a small bow to Sakura and to Integra. "Will this be all for now?" he asked Integra.
"Yes." Integra and Alucard left after that, both heading to the meeting that they were suppose to have earlier.
"What's a vampire?" The girl asked as she got up from the bed.
Seras went over to Sakura to help her up. "We are supposed 'mythological' creatures that drink blood in order to sustain ourselves."
"Blood?"
Seras could tell this was going to take awhile.
…………………………
Dreams, hopes, goals; they vanished without a trace, into the dark abysses…
…………………………
The room was small. It had a small table, a door leading to an even smaller bathroom, a small freestanding closet, and a small coffin for sleeping in during the day. Sakura now, was inside the coffin, opening and closing the lid as if she really enjoyed doing it, either that, or the creaking sound it made as the hinge moved.
Seras was the one watching her as she opened the lid for the umpteenth time that day. After taking a few moments to explain what a coffin was, the girl instantly jumped into the wooden structure to inspect it. Now that Seras thought of it, Sakura seemed to be child-like, her innocence and naivety was in leaps and bounds and seemed to make anyone happy just by being around her.
"You know, you have innocence too," Sakura said softly, as if she wasn't the one who was speaking. "You may think that you don't, especially with the fact that you had to kill your enemy, most of which were humans, just like you once was, but you do. So don't ever forget that."
Seras smiled and laughed. "And how is that you know all of this?"
Sakura blinked, coming out of her trance and memory relapse. "Did I say something?"
The police girl frowned at the girl as she gave her a confused look at her. "No. You didn't say a thing."
"Oh."
Seras gave a small yawn, signifying that it is time to go to bed and get some sleep. She stood up from the chair that she was sitting in. "I'm in the room across from this one if you need me. Make sure to keep your lid closed so that the sun won't get into the coffin and burn you, okay?" Sakura nodded showing that she understood her instructions. Seras smiled as she turned off the lights and headed into her own room.
After Seras left, Sakura pulled out a deck of cards. "So, what do you guys think?" she asked them, not knowing that the colorful cards understood what she had asked. Smiling at them, she put the cards back into her pocket.
Sighing contently, Sakura pulled down the lid to her coffin and fell into a dreamless sleep.
………………………
The despair came closing in on the heart, making everything seem bleak and hopeless…
………………………
The meeting between the members of the "Round Table" and the leader of the organization, Hellsing, had just finished. Unfortunately, the meeting was very unproductive and they came up with little about what to do with the ghouls that are now starting to overrun London. If one were to ask Integra the reason why that the meeting wasn't fruitful, she would reply that it is her vampire's fault since he was the one who left during the middle of the meeting, causing the rest of it to go unbalanced.
All the members had left all ready, and the only ones who were left in the room was Integra and Alucard.
"What are you planning to do with the girl?" Integra asked as she picked up papers off of the long table. "Do you think it is wise to keep her here?"
Alucard stood in the shadows; such is his usual way, his expression being covered by the shadow of his hat and the glasses that cover his eyes. "I think it is foolish to allow her to walk the streets by herself. She has an enormous amount of power, so much that she was able to call all the ghouls in a 30-mile radius. No, she would be safer to the public if she was here and not out there."
"Its funny," Integra said as she placed the papers inside of a brief case with a bunch of others. "I'm the leader of Hellsing, and yet, I'm taking suggestions from you. I wonder why?"
Alucard said nothing as his smirk could be seen underneath the layers of shadows. With Integra's silent permission, he phased out of the room, leaving Integra behind.
"So," she said to no one in particular, leaving the empty room. "I guess that means that she stays."
She turned the lights off.
……………………
Crying out and screaming for help, she wanted the pain to go away, and stay away forever…
……………………
He knew something was wrong the moment she left the large mansion.
Its been two weeks since she had last contacted him, telling him that she would return the very next day, via the plane.
He never found her in the bustling airport in the heart of London.
And he was scared.
He should've gone with her when she received a startling note that someone was threatening her family. She left so fast that he didn't even have enough time to tell her that her family wasn't being threatened, and was safe and sound. If they were being attacked, he would've surely sensed if one of the members of the small family in Tomoeda, Japan, was in trouble. Instead of taking the next plane out, he stayed, hoping that she'll realize that nothing was wrong and will come back to his "ancestor's" home, safe and sound.
That wasn't the case.
Instead, she called him, saying that everything's fine and she'll be back soon. Sometime, during one day, he felt her presence completely disappear. This is odd, because the only time, even if the person is dead, that someone's aura leaves if someone or something uses an aura shield so that no one could find that person. Sakura isn't one of those people, she likes having her aura run free, not to flaunt it to other people, but to allow other people who have the "heightened" senses, feel her joy and happiness.
He wasn't the only one who was affected by her strange disappearance. Her sun guardian, Kero had went days without eating, as if unintentionally saying that if she comes back, he'll stop eating like a pig. Her moon guardian, Yue, seems to be even more secluded, so much that the only person he will talk to is Toya, Sakura's older brother.
His reincarnated ancestor just stares into the fireplace in his living room all the time, as if the fire will give him the answers. His two guardians, Spinel Sun, and Ruby Moon, fight less. Suppi reads even more now, allowing himself to get lost in the world of books. Whereas Nakuru, isn't even as hyper as much and only gives Spinel sweets only once a week instead of the usual twice a day.
He, himself, Li Syaoran, losses himself in his sword practice, fighting invisible opponents, imagining the one who took Sakura and pretending to destroy him, knowing full well that it isn't going to help at all.
The one thing that they all agreed to do is to not tell Daidoji Tomoyo about her best friend and distant cousin that Sakura had left. Tomoyo would probably go insane if she were to find out, probably even go as far as to hurt herself since the happy girl is major part of her life.
He brought down the oriental blade down on another invisible opponent, slashing the air in a clean slice. Sweat ran rivulets down his face and into his t-shirt, the one he got from her.
The t-shirt itself was a gift from her. She was so happy when he opened the box on his birthday, that he didn't have the heart to tell her that he had one all ready at home back in Hong Kong. Now, he practically lives in the shirt and washes it on a regular bases, causing the color to fade a bit from being in the wash so many times.
He ducked as his invisible opponent swung his sword at him. He blocked the next attack and made his last move to ultimately destroy the enemy.
A clapping noise, coming from the kitchen door, interrupted his thoughts and training. "Nice job," Eriol's voice came in his usual patient way. "You sure were kicking those guy's posterior, or as you would say, 'butt'."
Syaoran sighed as he shrunk the sword and pulled it over his head where it laid, resting on his sweaty neck. He wiped some of the sweat off of his head as he regarded his "ancestor". "Its more like 'ass'. And why are you out of your chair? Finally realized that those silly flames aren't going to help you find her?" Syaoran didn't mean to be so rude, but now, he really didn't care anymore. If Sakura where here she'd probably- he stopped himself before he thought of her.
Eriol smiled in his usual mysterious way, the one that annoyed the hell out of Syaoran and managed to get him riled up all the time. "My dear descendant, I know that the flames wouldn't say anything, I was merely thinking."
"For two weeks?"
Eriol just smiled even more.
Syaoran sighed. "What is it that you want?"
"Why don't you come inside and freshen up a bit. That way, after I tell you, you can go see if what I said is true," Eriol said, knowing full well that if he didn't play "let's make a deal" Syaoran would run right out the front door without being calm about it. Besides, Eriol wanted to tell all four guardians about his suspicions at one time instead of repeating it. By the time that Syaoran would be done getting refreshed, Nakuru should be back from the store and Kero should be up from his nap.
"Fine," Syaoran grumbled as he went inside of the house.
Eriol watched from the doorway as rain started to fall. Smiling, he went inside that house just as Nakuru came in, shouting out that she is home.
…………………
But in the end, she knows that everything will be all right…

Authoress's Notie:
For those of you who have just joined my crazed world, I'm mostly a CCS fan (amongst other things…) and was recently introduced to Hellsing, most likely one of the best vampire stories I've ever read. I'm a fan of mythological creatures, but not into the movie version portrayal that you see in the olden days.
I'm really sorry if any of the characters from Hellsing are OOC, I've only read the 1st four mangas and I was borrowing them from a friend of mine 'cause I wanted to know why it was such a big deal. If they do seem OOC, please tell me so that I can fix the problem…
Also, please don't kill me about Sakura being a vampie, it just happened that way, and besides I think that it's a good idea, even if everyone starts throwing Kitchen utensils at me (please, no knives though…)
For those of you who have been reading 'Cherry Soda', I have decided to take it off. I couldn't figure out what to do, I had the beginning good and the end all ready planned out, but I didn't know how to get from point A to point B. I was having troubles with it starting in chapter 2, I had no clue as to what to do and ended up re-writing it several times, same thing w/ chp3, I've been up to at least five diff versions before I realized that it wasn't going to work. So if anyone wants to use the idea, be my guest, just as long as you don't copy any of the context from my version, okay?
One last thing, I'm going to be alternately putting this story in the CCS area and the HS area so that both parties can read and review it (hint, hint).
Okay, I'll shut up now and let you read and review now…
