Chapter 1, Sneaking in
? London, England
'Ugh' both woman cried out, 'stupid old man' They slowly sat up and were greeted by a gate surrounding a huge, old looking mansion. 'God damn it, what's this and where are we?' miss Anderson asked herself more than miss Valentine, but she answered anyway, 'I really have no idea, but I've got a huge head ache' miss Anderson laughed slightly at her expression. They looked at the gate and both thought the same thing: 'how are we going to get in?'
'Need some help?' Ravenwoods head suddenly popped out of the ground. 'Yes' they both said. 'She grabbed a few bars from the gate and bend them , so the woman could pass trough. She immediately disappeared after, because of her dislike of the sun. 'Lyra, don't you think it looks so different here then were we come from?' Myra asked her friend. 'I agreed with you' she answered. Suddenly an alarm started ringing.
'Ah, shit, both woman' screamed, 'they found out there are intruders' They jumped behind a bush, just in time before a group of soldiers came running out of the building. 'You all heard Sir Hellsing's orders, capture the intruders, if he or she is a vampire, destroy it, if its humans we take it to Sir Hellsing, understood?' a brunet man with a long braid and an eye patch told his man. 'Yes, captain understood' all of them said.
'Listen Lyra, this is the plan, as soon as a soldier comes this way we knock him out and I will dress up as one of this mans soldiers, so I can slip in this building easily , you will hide, I will come back to get you, okay?' Myra said in one breath. 'Nice plan, Lyra, I like that' They silently waited. One of the soldiers walked before their bush. 'Excuse me, sir, can I ask you something?' Myra asked the man in her most seductive voice.
'Yes, of course' the man said blushing a bit, not even realizing they were the ones who snuck in. 'Who lives in that mansion?' 'Ah, that's sir He…, hey wait a minute, you two must be the intruders' 'Ah, shit, you got us, sir' Myra smirked. Just in the seconds the man wanted to grab his pistol, Myra hit him over the head with her own, 'Never underestimate a woman' She pulled the man behind the bush and started to strip him to his underwear.
Then she stripped herself and put on his uniform. 'How do I look?' she joked Lyra. 'Perfect, I wouldn't even suspense you're a woman or an intruder' she laughed. 'Okay, see you later, watch me' She stood up from behind the bush, looked around and disappeared trough the front door of the mansion…
Lyra POV
I heard the soldiers running past and I hoped they wouldn't discover me, when suddenly a voice popped up behind me, 'Bonjour, miss, what are you doing here?' I jumped and he grabbed me. I started kicking him. 'Miss, easy easy' he said. 'He has a French accent' I thought to myself, 'wait, maybe I can talk myselfout of this'. I calmed down a bit. 'Sir, would you please let me go? I don't like to be touched, especially by men' I said calmly. 'Sorry miss, but I cant, we are looking for some intruders right now and you could be one of them'
I smirked at him, 'very smart, how right you are, sir' I lifted my knee and kicked him in a for men very sensitive spot. He let go of me in pain and I ran. 'Get her' he screamed. The soldiers turned around, saw me and sadly, decided to chase me. 'Ah, shit, they are catching up to me' I whispered to myself, but I have a plan. I reached the mansion and they were almost caught up to me. 'I will get you all' I screamed at them. 'I ran up the side of the building, jumped off and landed behind all of them, pulling out my two katana's, I screamed: 'don't come any closer or I will attack'
'Miss, calm down a bit, we don't want to hurt you, why is it that you are here?' one of the soldiers asked. 'I want to speak to your boss' I said firmly. 'We will bring you there then, put away the weapons!' 'Fine' I put away the weapons and let them take me to their boss. 'No tricks or some of you will get hurt' 'Of course not, miss' everyone said, most of them a bit afraid of her attitude.
Myra POV
I was sneaking trough the manor carefully not to be seen. 'How big is thismanor?' I wondered. I rounded a corner and reached a staircase that went down into the dark. 'What's this, the sublevels, the basement?' My curiosity led me down. My hands feeling the walls while the darkness engulfed me. 'Where was I, what was this?' Suddenly my hands bumped against something hard, iron. I felt around and found a handle, a door. The door swung open revealing a dark, but lightly lighted room. Candles decorated the walls, some lit, some not.
I looked around, it was beautiful, it looked so old like it came from the Victorian time. I walked in and the door closed. 'Ah, shit' I thought. A large, high throne stood on the left side of the room. Beside it was a small table with a few wine glasses and a bottle of wine, at least I presumed it was wine from the red color it had. I looked to my right and my eyes went wide. A large black coffin stared back at me. I carefully walked to it and let my hands slide on the surface, something was written there.
'The bird of Hermes is my name, eating my wings to make me tame' I red out loud, 'that sounds beautiful' 'Thank you, my dear, now what are you doing here?' A voice piped in. I immediately turned around, my eyes focused on the beautiful throne that was now occupied. A large man sat on it, he was dressed in red, a red coat, a red hat and even red sunglasses. He poured himself a glass of the whine. 'Who are you, woman or are you perhaps one of the intruders?' he asked with a smirk that reminded me too much of Ravenwood.
'Yes' I answered with a firm voice, 'I'm one the intruders and I want you to lead me to your boss' For a second he looked at me and then he burst out laughing. 'You are an amusing woman' he said, 'normally I don't take orders from anyone except my master, but for once I will listen, follow me' He stood up and started walking. Silently I followed him, but never taking my eyes of him. I knew to never trust a vampire and I knew this man was one.
