(sigh) "I see this is going to be a long fucking night." This thought crossed Ranma's mind as he over looked the city from where he was perched. The entire city seemed normal with nothing out of the ordinary happening, except people living out their everyday lives.

(beep beep) "Yeah what is it." Ranma said as he continued to look around.

"Gee what's with the crummy attitude?" The voice of his field-handler came through the com-link.

"Sorry slow night." He respond.

"Well I got something that will raise that your spirit of yours. A hot tip came in that there is going to a gathering at some place called "The Pit". You need me to send you the location." Gareth said as opened a can of beer.

(Heh) "No I already know where it is. So how many are we talking about?" Ranma said as was now standing up getting ready to make his move.

"Quite a bit of them. It's cover is probably one of a those dance club. Also be sure to make sure that the human casualties are down to a minimum, and by the way the yanks want an answer to their proposal." Gareth said as he took a sip from his can.

(sigh)"Tell them that it's a yes, but to give us a complete list of people who they suspect are going to have these powers as well as the ones that already do." Ranma said as continued his move from building to building.

"O.K. but are you sure about that. I mean all this trouble for "sleeping beauty" over here." Gareth said as he looked at their still sleeping guest. That they now had moved to one of the beds in the guest rooms.

"What choice do we have, you used all our resources and you still couldn't find out who she is. So we have to play ball with them." Ranma said as leaped one more time to come to a stop at the location of "The Pit."

"True I just hope we get something out of this I hate to have us do this for them and get nothing out of it." Sighed Gareth as started to get access to the "yanks." "Also HQ will be sending over the clean up crew tomorrow. So they will be continuing where we left of, so no worries right?"

"Yeah I hear you. Well I got to sign off I am at the "The Pit" so see you later." Ranma said as walked into it.

"Right no problem just don't fuck up." Gareth said before hearing the link die down. With that he began his typing on the computer.

"Well now I do hope you have an answer to our deal now right? We have sparred two whole days since we suggested it." The same man with a cigar in his mouth asked.

"Yeah we will accept your offer." Gareth said as he looked at the man before mumbling "Damn yank."

"What was that?" The "Yank" said with a smirk as he heard what Gareth had called him.

"I said yes we will accept. All right Fury!" Gareth said as his blood started to boil.

"Hey take it easy you I heard you, we will be sending you some of our agent to take out of New York." Fury said before disconnecting the link between them.

---- The Pit's entrance ----

"This place sure has a long line." The feminine voice said as she and several others were waiting.

"Can't argue with that." The male wearing red shade that was standing next to her.

"Oh come on this place is got to be big. I mean just look at that line." The other female with brown hair said.

"I still think this is a bad idea." The second male said as he too was waiting in the line. "Also why didn't you object to us sneaking out of the hotel aren't you suppose to be "Mr. Follow the Rules." He also stated as he looked at the other male in their group.

"Well um." he said as he found it was hard to argue with the statement. "Am I really that bad?"

(giggle) "Yes you are sometimes, but I think you are getting better." The female besides him said with a small smirk. "And besides I don't think the professor will object to us having some fun. After all we are still young, and we do need to have some fun every now and then."

"Jean's right we deserve to have some fun. Even after everything we have been through. I mean all we have been doing seems like work, and more work." "Not to mention you as well." The shorter of the two females said as she mentally added as well also hoping that Jean didn't use her power to read her thoughts they started to move slowly as the line started to move.

--------15-20 min. inside The Pit--------

"Double-shot Vodka please." The pigtailed vampire said as he sat the bar.

"You sure about that kid. Wouldn't want you puking here at the bar." The bartender said as he eyed Ranma.

"Sure I'm sure I can take anything you got behind that counter." Ranma said as he smirked while showing his growing fangs.

(Heh) "I hear you here you go." The bartender said as he poured the drink.

"So when is it going to happen. I am kind of new here." Ranma said before he took the drink and downed it. "I just came here from England few months back, and a friend of mind said this is a hot spot."

"Yeah it is. Look you see the two emergency light over there." The bartender said pointing to the far end of the bar. "Well the right one to it is the fake. When it lights up red that is when the fun begins."

"O.K. when it lights up red right." Ranma said as he was now standing off the barstool.

"That's right. A word of advise be careful though. about two or three months ago we had a problem."

"A problem?" Asked Ranma as he raised one of his eyebrows

"Yeah one of our regulars was going at it when he started to feel bad. I mean real bad we had to put him in one of the tanks for three weeks." The bar tender said to the now interested vampire.

"What happened?" The interested pigtailed vampire.

"That's just it we don't know. But we think it had to do with the girl he was feeding on. You see she was a mutant. Problem is we have not been able to find one to test on. So just giving you the word up." The bartender said as he left to help others.

"Interesting. That is very interesting indeed. This could be brought on the fact that they are only rogues." Ranma thought as he look at the wall and noticed that the lights had just turned red. "It's showtime!" Ranma thought to himself as he smirked, and proceeded to walk away from the bar.

"Oh I'm sorry." Ranma said as he had bumped into the red haired woman.

----- min. before -----

"I can't believe this place at all." The red glasses wearing youth said.

"Yeah I can't believe either this place is great." The red haired girl that was seated beside him.

"Oh you two come on we have sat here long enough. Let's dance!" The brown haired girl said as the grabbed the male she next to.

"You know Kitty's right Jean." The glasses wearing youth said to the redhead known as Jean. "That's a bad omen." He joked as he motioned the girl to go with him.

(giggle) "I think your right Scott, but I don't think we have to worry to much." She said as the two of them made their way from the tables to the dance floor.

"Oh I'm sorry." Jean said as she had bumped into a man wearing a large black coat. When it hit her memories which almost caused her to fall had it not been for the fact that she was leaning against Scott. Memories that wore so vivid that it was as if it was hers and she was re-living them.

"Jean!" Scott yelled out as she was flood with images.

---- memory ----

"Foolish boy how many time do I have to throw you in there." Yelled a large man wearing a gi as he made a swift and hard punch. When it hit her the pain etched across her face which only added to the pain that she was already feeling through her body that was covered with lacerations. When she heard a voice that was not her own.

"Please pop don't throw me in there again please." Cried out the voice that she heard.

"FOOLISH BOY! I said get in there!" The large man said as she felt him he grabbed her and threw her into a darken hole. "And I am nailing it shut until you learn the Neko-ken. It's for your own good boy!"

"POP PLEASE! NOOOOO!" She hear the voice yelled as she hear the growls and hisses drowned the voice that she was hearing. When she hit the bottom of the dark hole that was now being nailed shut.

---- flash ----

"Don't worry Ranma there will be a little discomfort, but you will find that it will pass and a new feeling will come. Sadly it is hard to describe the feeling." The little girl said as she was now inches away from her.

"Is it a bad feeling?" The same voice from before only now older sounded.

"Oh no. It is like a tittle wave of joy, and pleasure is hitting you all at once, but even that is as inadequate description of it. It is best felt first hand." She said as she started to approach her. "Remember this is only you first step in joining us, until I feel that you are ready." She said as she was now at the neck area.

"I understand Helena." The voice said as she felt a sharp pain around her neck. Which only lasted a few seconds, but what came after was incredible it was as a different sensation hit her. And it was just as the girl had said her description was inadequate. It was indeed a feeling that was best felt first hand.

---- flash ----

"I am going to do to you what you did to Helena. You took away the only family that I know. She w....was like a sister, or even a .. a mother to me." The voice said as she felt tears were running down her face, and was also raising a nickel plated fire arm with a blood cover hand. "You bastard you killed her, and I felt every ounce of pain she was feeling."

(heh heh) "And what of it. If your precious Helena had not informed Hellsing about me she would be alive right now. Well as much as anyone of us can be anyway." The naked man with weird marking all over his body said. "Besides what do you think using that gun would do. I am far to powerful to even worry about those bullets. (heh heh) Even Alucard found that out before I destroyed him and the other gun he was using. Do really you wish to die by my hands just as they have Ranma." (HAH HAH)

"If you are that power then why built this circle." The voice said as there on the floor was a blonde wearing business suit over a circle with strange writing on it.

"I will use her to gain the power I need to bring chaos, and destruction to ravage the world and in doing so I will send this world straight to hell." The naked man said with a demented smirk.

"Then I will make sure that you won't gain that power!" The voice yelled as she felt herself move and delivered a hard kick to the man sending him through the mall. "Come on get out of here." The voice said as she felt herself remove the objects that was restraining her on the floor. She watched as the woman staggered to her feet to flee when an intense pain came, and it was coming from her throat. It caused her to fall to her knees as she felt her windpipe was severed with a sharp object still implanted in there.

"Really did you think freeing her would save this world from being sent to hell." The naked man said as he appeared in front of her. "Not very smart Ranma." The man said as his hand pulled the object that had pierce her throat. The pain that came was even more intense then when it had impaled her as the man was grabbing her be the neck. "You see all I need is pure uncorrupted bodies blood. And I am pretty sure that your body is still untouched even though your master was a female." The man smirked as he squeezed her neck tight as the blood was still flowing through the hole, and somehow started to flow into the mouth of the man that was holding her. "Now be gone!" The man said as he throw her through the walls of the building straight to the outside of it.

---- end----

"Jean are you O.K.?" The man named Scott said to the fallen redhead.

"I...I saw that man's memories." Jean said and would have said more except hers, and everyone's attention was drawn to the scene that was unfolding before them.

(Bang)
