Hello, all! I decided to write another chapter of Kenpachi vs. Everyone, because, hell. I wanted to. So, please sit back, relax, and enjoy the magical tale of Kenpachi VS. Alucard. (from Hellsing, not Castlevania.)
Kenpachi looked around. It was near midnight, and he had sent Yachiru to bed long ago. But something had woken him up. A strong scent wafted through the air, similar to his own. It was the scent of blood, and it invaded his nostrils and quickened his pulse. This much blood... there must have been a battle nearby. He would be downright offended if he got there and the combatants had all killed each other, seeing as he had gotten up in such a hurry he hadn't even bothered to spike his hair.
Alucard inhaled deeply. There was blood everywhere. The scent was overpowering, and yet he wanted more. Ever since he had turned the police girl, vampire activity had tripled. It was wonderful to have missions like this, where he got to take on groups of vampires that actually put up a fight. He smelled something else, though... among the fresh blood, the scent of stale blood was unwelcome. He turned, facing the source. A lone man, holding a sword that looked as if it had seen as many battles as he had, (which was really saying something) stood before him. His black hair lay flat, with bells tied to the ends. He grinned as if he had just found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. "Oh? And who might you be?"
Kenpachi grinned even wider. He was terrible at sensing reiatsu, but this guy had some serious power behind him. He pulled out his sword, then answered the mans question. "My name is Kenpachi Zaraki. And if this," he motioned to the bloody battlefield, "is your handiwork, then I'm gonna have to be your opponent."
Alucard grinned as wide as Kenpachi. "Oh, really? Well then, I suppose it's only polite to tell you who you face. I am the Nosferatu Alucard, King of Vampires!" He responded, Drawing both of his massive handguns. "Don't die too fast, I'd really rather enjoy this." Kenpachi laughed, and replied "That's my line, buddy! I have a feeling this is gonna be fun!"
Kenpachi charged at Alucard at speeds beyond any human. Alucard fired three shots from the Casull, and was genuinely surprised when Kenpachi avoided one shot and deflected the other two with his sword. Kenpachi's first swing missed, but he caught Alucard's face on the second stroke, cutting off the goggles and his hat, and drawing a thin red line up the No-life king's features. Alucard aimed again, and fired the Jackal at Kenpachi's head. Kenpachi moved back faster than expected, dodging the bullet and bringing his arm around with a third slice that cut off Alucard's right hand.
Alucard stood still, and glanced at his hand on the floor. The Jackal was still in it's grip, and hadn't discharged accidentally when it hit the ground. He had gauged from that single swing how powerful Kenpachi was, and knew that once he began using his regeneration techniques, he would win easily. He brought up the Casull and fired, but his opponent had anticipated the move, and the saw-like sword collided with his gun. He spun and aimed again, but Zaraki had closed the distance.
Kenpachi swung, cutting Alucard in half at the waist. He waited a second to see if there was any life left in him, but the corpse was still. He sighed, and turned to leave, when a voice behind him said "Are you finished already?" Kenpachi turned, insane grin having snapped back onto his face. Alucard stood before him, regenerated to his full glory. The Vampire fired the remaining ammo at Kenpachi, who blocked or avoided most shots, but took a few of the non-fatal ones. His strong body reduced what would be enormous bullet holes into what he considered minor wounds, barely a millimeter thicker than the bullets.
Alucard dropped the spent magazines to the ground, and reloaded his guns. "Are you surprised, Kenpachi Zaraki?" he asked. Kenpachi chuckled, and responded "Surprised? You just made me the Happiest fucking man in the world! Against you, I think it's alright if I go full strength. The old man may not like me releasing the limiter without permission, but I'll just say it was some kind of powerful Hollow." With that, he pulled off his eye patch, and a column of gold energy erupted from him.
Alucard whistled. This was some serious power. He focused his mind's eye on Zaraki, and Telepathically sent the image to his master. Hearing her approval in his head, he grinned, and released his powers to level 1. To his joy, Kenpachi did a similar release, and grew even more powerful, putting them on almost equal footing. He couldn't tell who was more powerful, and he couldn't wait to find out.
Bullets pinged off of Kenpachi's spiritual barrier. At this point, the guns were useless. Alucard evaporated into a dark mist, a mere moment before Kenpachi would have cleaved his head off... again. Alucard reformed himself behind Zaraki, having changed form from his usual guise to his original appearance. Drawing his sword, he charged Kenpachi, and their blades collided with a spark. They sliced at each other, and Alucard's vampiric strength did what his bullets hadn't, a gash forming on Kenpachi's shoulder. Alucard, however, had been more seriously wounded, and his breastplate fell to the ground, broken. His arm fell to the ground, but evaporated to mist and regenerated even as Alucard and Kenpachi attacked again.
They went back and forth, attacking relentlessly, until it was nearly dawn. Alucard had sustained the heavier wounds, but he always regenerated. Kenpachi, on the other hand, had been hit with multiple light wounds, but was losing strength and blood. Alucard looked at the horizon, and frowned. The sky was getting brighter, and the sun would be up soon. He had to get to the Hellsing manor before the sun was up, or Integra would lecture him again. She never let him stay out late.
"Kenpachi Zaraki," he said. "I am afraid that our fight must end for now. However, the next time you're in England... Find the Hellsing manor. We can continue there." Kenpachi looked at the brightening sky, then nodded. "Creature of the night, huh? I'll remember that. Might just bring my squad. We'll throw a barbecue." Alucard grinned. "Battle and barbecue... sounds great. Seras will love it."
And so, with the sun rising, the Man and the Monster went their separate ways.
