Yay the first double digit chapter. Sorry I wrote this chapter like 3 different ways. Also I couldn't figure out what people were talking about when they said Vladcard so I googled it. I'm a dumbass. Anyway I have lots of hilarity when little Vlad finally gets brought to life in this story, but he's still a couple chapters away.
Oh and another question: what color did they make Vladcards eyes when he was human in the OVA my Tv is from the 90's and I'm blind as a bat… well a blind bat anyway. Shouldn't they be blue?
Tucking her black jacket tighter around her Ari grinned up at the vampire bouncer watching as he inhaled lightly before letting her pass. She caught only some of what he muttered into his radio but she frowned hearing it. "Red halter… black jacket… Found one." Stepping into the club she winced, the music was loud and she could feel it rattle her bones. Pushing her way over to the bar she waved a bartender down, and when she ordered a Bloody Mary nearly jumped as a deep chuckle sounded in her ear. 'I thought I told Ryan not to let the bloodsucker have the mic.'
"Really my pet could you have picked a more ironic drink?" Sipping it she tried not to shot the hidden camera that was her watch a dirty look knowing that Alucard was enjoying watching her squirm. Tapping her silver nails on the counter she looked around, now she remembered why she didn't go clubbing, there were too many people crammed together trying to fuck each other's brains out. Spinning around on the stool she gave a little squeak coming nose to nose with the brown haired vampire from the video.
"Hello beautiful. What's a pretty little thing like you doing here all alone?" Making her eyes tear up the raven haired teen sniffed looking down at the drink in her lap.
"My boyfriend broke up with me about an hour ago. So I decided to make myself feel better and have some fun. I left in such a hurry I forgot to tell anyone what happened or where I was going." The brunette's smile seemed to widen if that was possible.
"That's offal why don't you let a real man treat you like the queen you are?" Looking around nervously she took the offered hand. Letting him lead her to a private table she downed her drink. "My names John, what's yours?" Leaning forward to give him a chance to look down her shirt she smiled what she hoped was a flirtatious smile. She'd never been to a club before and had no clue how to act around a guy who was making advances.
"Alex." Grinning he took her hand running his thumb over her palm.
"Well Alex why don't we get to know each other?" She nodded blushing prettily trying her best to ignore the Romanian curses ringing in her ear. She assumed they were curse words from how mad the vampire spitting them sounded. Chancing a glance into the brunette's muddy red eyes she smiled.
"Why not I'm feeling adventurous tonight?" Frowning John scooted around the table tucking a piece of hair behind her ear when he got close.
"I'm having a hard time placing your accent. Where are you from?" Jerking when a waitress placed a drink in front of her, her eye twitched seeing the fuzzy outline of two sleeping pills at the bottom of the glass. Wrapping her hands around it she smiled taking a large gulp.
"Funny you're one of the few people who notice I have an accent at all. I don't really sound like anyone back home in Indiana." Hearing a snicker in her ear she almost rolled her eyes.
"That's cause you tried to speak in different accents the whole time you were little. Maybe if you had stuck with one you would be able to say salt right." Seeing a tick form over the ravens eye Ryan rolled away from the computer when Alucard leaned over him baring his fangs watching as the brown haired fledgling played with his mate's hair. Pulling the microphone to him the Nosferatu had to remember to use English when speaking, he didn't really know why he reverted back to Romanian when he was furious.
"Artemis if you do not wish for me to rip that boys head off, remove yourself from him." Looking over John's head when he leaned in to sniff her neck she glared at the camera she knew the nightwalker would be watching from. Rolling from under the pissed off bloodsucker the ginger scoffed.
"Ya know she's not doing this to fuck the guy. If you notice she's almost completely stopped breathing because he's so close." Pulling a cigarette out of his pocket he frowned seeing only 2 left. Rolling over to Integra he smiled. "May I have a light, Dame?" Throwing the lighter harder than necessary at his head she gritted her teeth.
"Alucard leave the poor girl alone. You're only making this harder for her." Pouting he crossed his arms never taking his eyes off the screen. Seeing her laugh at something behind her hand the No-Life-King realized he had never seen her laugh like that.
"Dude relax you're more tense than she is." Debating whether or not to pat the vampire on the back he decided against it. "She's uncomfortable as hell right now. She only covers her face when she's nervous. It's one of her little habits." Crimson eyes flicked his way before returning to the monitor.
"She never exhibited this behavior with me." Running a hand through his hair Ryan sighed.
"That's because she likes you. I don't really see why, you're creepy as shit man. You just need to ease up on the possessive stuff; like telling her who she can hang with, that's a big no go with Ari." Handing the knight her lighter back the red head caught her hand, placing a kiss on it. "Thank you, mi lady." Frowning and rubbing his red cheek Ryan shrugged. 'I like um with some attitude. She's actually what I've been looking for in a women.'
'You had better keep your hands off my master human. I let you live because my pet is fond of you; do not push your luck.' Blinking wide eyes at the pale man the teen nodded. Seeing the raven haired girl move on screen Ryan rolled back over to the desk.
Glancing at the small female's drink John smirked seeing the two pills were gone, now all he had to do was wait and Alex already looked sleepy. The brunette wrapped an arm around her shoulders laughing when she sneezed into her jacket. "Sorry I have allergies in the fall, pollen sucks." Watching her cover a yawn he decided now was the time to act.
"It's alright Alex I still remember what it's like to have allergies, but don't most people have them during the spring." Yawning again she slid out of the booth when the male gestured for her move.
"Yep but I gotta keep um guessing, ya know?" He steered her to the back, completely missing the two little pills that dropped out of her black jacket. "Where are we goin'?" Chuckling the brown haired vampire pulled her closer.
"Don't worry babe, you look like you're about to fall asleep so I'm taking you to the back to lay down." Snuggling into his side she nodded.
"Thanks." Keeping an eye cracked open Ari inwardly cursed seeing that the door handle was silver, which was proven when one of the humans guarding the door reached out to open it when the fledgling approached practically dragging her with him. Whatever the silver eyes teen was expecting was not what greeted her. Behind the door was a long wall way littered with doors, and being pulled past one she glanced in. A girl with brown hair was chained to a wall; the chain was long enough she could reach the makeshift bed and the toilet. Ari was tugged further down the hall, each room had similar scenes with girls chained up, still wearing what they had disappeared in. Coming to the end of the passage way she was dragged into a room and laid on a mattress before an ankle cuff was attached to her foot. Repressing a shudder when John leaned over her licking her neck she thanked who ever had interrupted him.
"Oi hands off the goods you know Maximus doesn't like seconds. Come on it'll still be a few minutes before he gets here." Leaving the room John slammed the door behind him. Cracking her eye open Ari sit up as Ryan laughed in her ear.
"Your acting still sucks." Pulling her watch up to her face she flipped the little screen off knowing the ginger could see her. The redhead really was a genius when he wanted to be. "Fuck you. Now how much longer do I have to stay here, I have to pee; and I'm not using that toilet." Hearing a commotion over the earpiece she sighed shaking her head.
"Artemis you must stay there until this Maximus shows up, it sounds like he's the master vampire." Standing up the teen explored her small area. Bringing her watch up again she grinned.
"How' Red doing? Is he still functioning like an abnormal individual?" She got a snarl as her reply. "Really I'm in a life or death situation and you can't even talk to me?" She heard him sigh and nearly laughed.
"You are not doing anymore field work. I will not have my mate put in such un-necessary danger on a regular basis." She frowned down at the silver watch.
"I thought you would be happy. I'm doing something useful and helping your master. Plus I wanted to try out my special nail polish, complete with blessed silver thanks to Walter." Pausing she wiggled her fingers letting the dim light reflect off of her nails. "By the way you may have some trouble getting in here. There are some weird shaped runes craved beside the door and the handle is silver. So unless you're Dracula or something I'm pretty much screwed."
"You mean you haven't told her yet? What have you been doing the last 2 months?" Cocking her head when Integra's voice came over the earpiece Ari blinked.
"Hasn't told me what?" Not getting an answer she glared at the door until Ryan grabbed the mic away from Alucard.
"That's not important right now, focus on what you're doing Arz. As soon as this Max guy gets there signal us and your fanger will come get you." Flicking the microphone off the ginger frowned at the sulking vampire. "Ari may be smart but she's kinda slow on most days. Even I knew you were Dracula, Alucard is sort of a dead giveaway." Shaking his head the teen ran a hand through his hair deciding he needed a haircut. "When she finds out she's gonna murder you. She's been writing her history paper over Vlad Tepes, and so far she has six out of seven pages. Man she's gonna be pissed, she hates doing research and when she realizes she could've just asked you... I'd hate to be you." Blinking the Nosferatu turned away from the computer.
"Why would she write a paper on me?" Shrugging the teen turned to watch as the lady knight gave orders to someone who had knocked on the door.
"It's not my place to tell, you'll have to ask her yourself." Glancing at the screen Ryan cursed seeing the room rush by like Ari had been thrown.
Hearing the lock click on the door Ari turned towards the sound as a gray haired male walked in frowning. "How are you awake? Those pills should have knocked you out for at least 6 hours."
"That would probably be because I didn't swallow them." Casting a nervous glance down at her watch she gulped. "You might need to see about getting a better fledgling." Before she could blink the male was across the room, and she was flying through the air before smashing into a brick wall. Feeling her left arm snap she whimpered as her vision dimmed. Someone grabbed her arm making the world come rushing back with a wave of pain. Blinking her eyes clear a second she saw John's blurry outline, throwing her right arm out she racked her nails over the vampire's face getting only a small feeling of satisfaction. The bloodsucker snarled, wrapped a hand around her foot and squeezed. Screaming as the bones were crushed she kicked out with her other leg knocking him away. Screeching when the room was bathed in darkness she distantly realized the club music had stopped too. Screams echoed down the hallway followed shortly by a barrage of gun fire. John jerked her up by her bad arm again grinning as his fangs extended. The stress of the jagged bone was too much for her skin and the broken bone tore through. A snarl resounded around the room before the metal room was ripped off its hinges. Seeing Alucard's glowing red eyes gleaming in the darkness Ari slumped with relief. "Invocation of Cromwell confirmed. Levels 3, 2, 1 released." Darkness slithered from the true Nosferatu's form covering the walls, lighting the room with illuminated scarlet eyes just enough for Ari to make out the leather covered form of Hellsing's trump card. Catching the master vampire Alucard sank his teeth into his throat releasing his venom, letting it eat the weaker nightwalker from the inside out. Tossing the body away the No-Life-King grinned stocking towards the only other people in the room. Pulling Ari against him John backed up shaking.
"W-Wait can't we talk about this? I'll give you the girl if you let me live." Smiling bigger Alucard held out a hand willing his shadows to wrap around Ari's form pulling her from the other medium's arms. Cradling her arm to her chest she gave a small smile up at him. Patting her head once the ancient vampire dashed forward gripping the back of John's neck, digging his fingers in and ripping the fledgling's spine out. As a later thought he shoved it through his chest giving a growl of approval when the boy exploded in a shower of blood. Darting back to Ari he snarled taking in her condition, he couldn't heal broken bones. Lifting his mate into his arms he let his shadows consume them.
Well Ari's hurt and the vampire bar arc is finished. How will Alucard handle his poor little injured mate? Sorry if the chapter sucked I'm distracted, watching Yu Yu Hakusho and typing. Review!
