And there they were, Ceras Victoria and Alexander Anderson, with
Anderson blocking the way for Ceras to get out, simply because he wants yet
another duel to the death with her master, Alucard.
"I will destroy that bastard if it's the last thing I do." Anderson had that grin on his face that made his confidence show.
"Then why wait? Why not get it over with right now?"
Anderson looked up to the rooftops to see the dark figure of Alucard. No features could be seen on him, except for his glasses, which reflected the light from the lampposts littered throughout the streets, and his large, ghastly grin. Aside from that, he was nothing but a dark outline.
"Alucard! For once I'm actually happy to see your wretched face! Get your worthless vampire hide down here and fight me now!"
"But of course." Alucard went from the rooftop of the building to the street in one leap, landing almost twenty feet away from Anderson. "But first thing's first, let the policewoman go."
Anderson changed his grin to somewhat of an open-mouthed frown.
"Fine, but then get over here, so I can plant these blades right through your heart." Anderson quickly signaled for Ceras to get out of the alley, and she ran out toward Alucard.
"It's okay policewoman. I'll put this idiot in his place...again."
Alucard raised his .454 Casull, aiming it for Anderson's chest, as Anderson raised two swords (one in each hand) into a cross. Anderson quickly broke his stance for a split-second, threw a smaller knife at Alucard like a dart, and charged at him. Alucard countered this by shooting the knife thrown at him right out of the air, and jumping six feet into the air, right over Anderson, and landing with Anderson right behind him, finishing his charge.
"Bloody wretched vampire!" Anderson yelled.
"You say that as if it's an insult." Alucard taunted.
"It is! Vampires are filthy creatures that do not deserve to live!"
"And who decides that? You? Hardly. Don't make me laugh!" Alucard finally turned around to see his opponent. "You haven't beaten me once so far, so I see no reason to have to listen to the likes of you."
"That will change very soon, vampire."
"What makes you think you will beat me this time, priest? What makes this occasion so special?"
"You've been lazy lately, from what I've heard from the girl. Taking a free night without working on your skills? Heh. You're bound to slip up tonight."
"I've been walking on this world for longer than the history of your family name, and I have yet to 'slip up'. Tonight will not be the night that it happens, if it ever does."
"We shall see."
Anderson rushed at Alucard yet again. Alucard didn't do anything this time. He just stood there and let his adversary come at him. This time, he retaliated by dashing to the side, and using his incredible speed and reflexes, he grabbed the sword out of Anderson's left hand. After pulling off this feat, he twirled around swiftly, brought up the blade, and blocked the other with it. Alucard had the upper had in skill, as always. He would make sure that he let Anderson know it.
"It seems that you're the one that's slipping up, priest. You're not even trying, it seems."
"I'll show you!"
Anderson brought the blade back, circled it around his head, and tried to bring it down through Alucard's head. But Alucard, seemingly always one step ahead of the priest, simply brought the blade up horizontally, and without much effort, again blocked the blade.
"I'm still waiting." Alucard still had that ghastly grin on his face, which, at this point in their history with one another, didn't seem to bother Anderson one bit.
Anderson jabbed his blade at Alucard several times after this, but Alucard just simply slipped them all off. After a while, he just dropped the blade he had swiped from Anderson's hand, and brought his gun up. After a few more slips, Alucard pointed his gun and shot the sword his enemy was holding, shattering it, forcing Anderson to stop his assault.
"This is beginning to bore me, priest." Alucard said with a slight yawn. "This battle is turning out like all the rest."
Anderson was getting frustrated. It was turning out like all the rest.
"It may be, but it only means to me that I am one battle closer to wiping you from existence. I only need to win once, and your wretched soul will be gone forever."
"Stop dreaming. You and I both know that you will never get the best of me!"
"Your overconfidence will be the end of you, vampire Alucard. And I will be the one to bring you that end." And with that, several hundred pages of the bible floated out of his coat, and wrapped around him like a tornado. Then the pages all separated and flew of into the wind, and Anderson was gone. No where to be found.
"Are you alright, policewoman?" Alucard asked Ceras, now that Anderson was out of the way.
"...Yes. I am not hurt in any way, master." She still had an uncomfortable feeling in her neck from that gang member strangling her with the blade up to her neck, but otherwise, she was okay.
"Good. It looks like you're going to need more training policewoman, if four fake vampires managed to get the best of you, and especially if you needed the help of that...disgrace of a warriors' help to survive."
"I'm sorry master. I don't know what happened..."
"You'd better be. What do you think my master would say if she knew how this happened?"
Ceras couldn't think of a decent answer.
"It doesn't matter now. What is done is done now, I suppose. Just don't let it happen again, or I will tell her."
"Thank you, master."
"I trust you can take care of yourself now?" After what happened, Alucard was actually worried about the safety of this policewoman.
"Yes master, I can find my own way back to headquarters." Ceras was getting annoyed, being treated like a child because of this one incident.
"Very well then. I shall go enjoy the rest of my night." And with that, Alucard faded away into the shadows.
"Did you see that, sir?"
"Yes. His abilities are extraordinary indeed."
High up on the rooftops, a man in a black stealth suit, different from the one before, had been watching the whole fight between Alucard and Alexander Anderson, and he also had a camera set up next to him, recording the whole thing. The man on the other end of the communicator was watching the fight through the camera.
"I don't know sir. This vampire may actually have what it takes to get the better of you. You saw how fast and skillful he was."
"That does not worry me one bit. He is still a vampire, and that puts him at quite a large disadvantage already." The man on the other side of the communicator did not seem to show any emotion in what he was saying. No fear, anger, joy, or hate. He just said what he said in a very neutral voice.
"I am aware of that sir, but this Anderson character looked like he had tools on him that were specially designed to use against vampires as well, but this...Alucard got the better of him without even seemingly trying." The man on the rooftop didn't want to anger his boss, but he really was concerned about what his boss was getting into.
"Yes, I know. I know of Anderson. I have been watching him for quite some time as well. He is no match for this vampire, and he never will be."
"And you think you are sir? I don't mean to say that you're weak or anything, but Alucard is by far the most powerful being we have ever come across."
"That is what makes it so interesting. In all my years doing what I'm doing, I have never failed. This vampire will be no different. I will catch him, and I will destroy him."
"...Yes sir. Do you have enough information yet to make your move?"
"Almost. My time to strike is near. Alucard will finally have met his match!"
Ceras didn't know what to think. How could I have let four measly teenage vampires get the best of me, she thought. What's wrong with me lately?
She decided to walk around for a while, trying to get that catastrophe out of her head. It was embarrassing even to think about. She would get to the subway that would take her back to the Hellsing Organization headquarters eventually, but she just had to walk around for a while to get these things out of her mind, even though she knew they wouldn't.
So, she just decided to make her way to the subway, so she could go home and get some rest in her coffin. That's probably what's best for her right now.
Despite feeling all of this shame, Ceras couldn't find any reason to be in this place any more, and she worked her way to the subway to catch her ride home.
"I will destroy that bastard if it's the last thing I do." Anderson had that grin on his face that made his confidence show.
"Then why wait? Why not get it over with right now?"
