Author's Note; Okay, so I'm going to update this after I read all the comments. Watch out for strong language in this chapter.
Alucard
He walked back inside, only to find Claire walking down the stairs. She was ready to battle ghoul ass. He watched her with pride glowing in his red eyes. His little Claire was all grown up. He slid into the shadows, unnoticed by her. He watched her silently for a minute. She seemed to be lost in thought about something. She'd been like that for the last few days.
He wondered what was on her mind. As easily as he could have invaded her thoughts and figure it out for himself, he had made a promise to Claire that he would never do so again. Unless, it was an absolute emergency.
He emerged from the shadows, standing behind Claire. She was still unaware of his presence. This was not a good thing. If she stayed like this for their mission, she would end up dead or seriously injured. Neither of which sat kindly in Alucard's mind.
"Claire."
His voice whispered darkly in her ear, causing her to squeal and jump. He laughed softly, holding her still. "You need to be more aware of your surroundings, my dear. Next time, your surprise attacker might not be me."
Claire spin around, glaring at him. "That was completely unnecessary," she growled softly. Her violet eyes glared at the vampire king fiercely, causing Alucard to smirk softly.
"I think it was completely necessary," he turned into the hard trainer that had made his daughter grow stronger through emotions and strength. "You are not focused. Being unfocused can lead to death. What are you thinking about?"
Claire couldn't hide the blush that rose to her cheeks.
Alucard glared. "What. Are you thinking about?"
She mumbled something so softly that even his vampire ears couldn't hear. "What?"
"Nothing!" she snapped, spinning away from him. "Let's just get on with the mission."
Alucard sighed but couldn't help but smile ever so slightly. She was definitely his daughter. In every way but the one that counted. In blood. He still loved her nonetheless. She was his daughter. Now and forever.
Claire
She stormed out of the inn, rage building inside her. She was furious at Alucard. He had startled her then lectured her about the idea of focus. Who did he think she is?! A child? No! She was 18! A grown adult in the eyes of society.
She kept walking down the street, fully award that Alucard was following her at a safe distance. She sighed softly. She had to confront him about Pip sooner or later. If not, he'd figure it out and then he'd be upset because she hadn't told him. If she tells him now, he would be less angry.
Slowly, she came to a stop. "Father, stop following me." She called back. "It makes you seem like a creepy stalker who preys on young ladies."
Alucard laughed as he faded out of the shadows beside her. "I'm sorry for what I said." Is all he said before getting serious. "Now, we have a mission to do."
Alucard
He turned, red cloak furling out dramatically as he turned and began walking in the opposite direction. From then on out, Alucard's emotions became null and void. He was mentally preparing for the kill; and the thrill it would bring.
His eyes flared bright underneath his glasses, fangs sharp as the peeked out from under his lip as he smiled. Oh, how he loved to kill.
Unknown
The vampire and the girl were on the move. Electric blue eyes glared fiercely at the human. Why on earth would a vampire king carry around such baggage? She was nothing, if not holding him back.
The creature shifted uncomfortably. It was cold and he was soooooooo hungry. A wicked grin curled on his lips, revealing sharp pointy teeth. That human girl would make a lovely meal. Maybe a nice, quick fuck too. She had a nice enough body. He became hard just thinking about her, pinned beneath him as he pounded into her pussy.
He scowled softly. The stupid chip had made him vulgar. Then again, he had always been vulgar. He was just now more open about it. Rape, eat, and repeat. That was now the creature's method. Yes, this was Jaz's way.
With a sorrowful sigh, he jumped off his perch, heading off to Sussex Manor to warn his master.
Claire
The walk to Sussex Manor was a quiet, unnerving one. Alucard seemed perfectly at easy, strolling along as wind blew his cloak back. However, Claire was tense with anticipation. She was going to have her first kill tonight. Alucard chuckled darkly, tipping his hat back, looking up at the manor that slowly came into view.
Such a drama queen, Claire thought. He loved to put on a show before finishing off his enemies.
The Manor was enormous. With white marble walls and large glass windows, it almost looked like Hellsing Manor. However there were subtle details that Claire noticed that made it obvious that it was nowhere close to the glory to that of the Hellsing family.
The walls were charred along the bottom edges, suggesting a fire had once taken place in the Manor. The tall columns that held up the balcony on the second floor were scratched and scarred as the only way marble can be. Several windows were broken and the front door had been forced open. Many cobwebs filled the corners, suggesting that the ruling Lord had been gone away for sometime.
However, the largest thing was the numerous blood stains that now covered the once pure, white marble.
A spider scampered across Claire's foot, and looking down, she squished it upon detection. She hated spiders.
And that's when she heard it.
The low, pitiful yet frighteningly chilling groans of the undead. It resonated deep within her core, causing goose bumps to break out along her skin and fear begun to wrap a grip around her brain.
A gentle yet firm hand fell on her shoulder, calming her slightly. She looked up at Alucard. He kept his gaze forward but spoke to her, voice dark.
"Get your pistols out. Reload to a full magazine. Prepare yourself, my child. You're true test of strength outside of the Hellsing estate is coming."
Okay! The end for now. I might write the beginning of Chapter 8 and if I get far enough, I'll post that today too. Hope you like the story so far. Read, review and tell me what you think. Thanks!
