Chapter 16: The Final Curtain Part 3
Alucard swung his ax once more, but an unseen barrier deflected it, and Walter electrocuted the World Eater once more before slinging him into a building, said building came crashing down as previously received damage let Alucard's impact be the final nail in it's coffin.
"I know it's filthy rich coming from me Walter, BUT YOUR POWERS ARE BULLSHIT!!" Shouted the World Eater, frustrated that he has yet to lay a finger on him.
Walter replied by electrocuting him again.
Alucard exploded into a shower of gore... his Bloodthirster standing in his place.
The greater daemon raised it's ax and swung, but to Alucard's surprise, the ax exploded.
"I'm afraid you'll have to do much better than that." Walter said before his warp lightning drilled into the greater daemon's chest and pulled Alucard from it, separating them for the first time since their deal.
The daemon barely had time to comprehend what had happened before Walter electrocuted it, the warp lightning tunneling into it's skin like a million parasites, overwriting it's nervous system.
The Beast of Tartarus could only roar in pain as Walter threw it towards Alucard, swiping it's claws at the World Eater and tearing away one of his arms.
"I truly feel bad for you old friend, all these years dreaming of the chance to kill me, and now you can only do so as the puppet of a traitor." Alucard said as he regrew his arm and resummoned the lost weapon.
The Bloodthirster was made to lunged at him again, it's mouth agape.
Alucard waited for the last moment and leaped onto the daemon's head, imbedding his ax into it's skull, and bearing his plasma pistol. "Farewell until you return from the immaterium."
BLAM!
Alucard barely pulled himself from the Bloodthirster's disintegrating corpse before Walter was upon him again, the warp lightning keeping him stunned while the chaos sorcerer drew a tainted power halberd and began hacking his limbs off one by one until only his torso and head remained.
But suddenly, Walter dropped the halberd and clutched his head with both hands. "Was it worth it Walter, receiving a geneseed at your age, accepting the corruption of Slaneesh, betraying everyone who trusted you, just so you come at me here and now, all these years later, was it worth it, WAS IT!?"
"...it will be, but don't worry, I don't plan to live long enough to regret this, but you will die first..." As Walter said this, he reclaimed the Halberd and rammed it through Alucard, tearing through both of his hearts.
"heh heh...wait...this isn't..." Alucard's corpse disappeared, but not before revealing that it wasn't Alucard at all, it was the Night Lord: Luke Valentine.
Walter backed away... until a hand grabbed his shoulder.
"Nice try Walter, but as I've said before, I cannot be killed by dogs." Walter turned just in time to see a fist coming at him before he was knocked off his feet.
Walter turned to his attacker and saw neither the World Eater nor the Blood Raven, but a young Eldar woman, a maskless Howling Banshee of the craftworld Biel-Tan, and yet, it was undeniably Alucard.
"Surprised, the poor thing chose to become one my slaves after she was left for dead and her Soul Stone was destroyed, can't say that I blame her, but I won't give you the same mercy." As Alucard said this, Walter once more clenched his head in his hands, screaming in agony as the hastened implantation of his geneseed and Slaneeshi taint took it's toll.
Walter's eyes burned with warp fire, tentacles grew from his face and the gaps in his armor.
The psyker was gone, the traitor was gone, the person was gone, all that was left was the taint, the living corruption that manifested in the form of a monstrous abomination known as a Chaos Horror.
"Now we will end this." Grinned Alucard.
