1Chapter Ten: Alucard vs Lui
"Hehehehe..."
"Lui?" Johnny asked, turning to see his brother smiling evilly at him, fangs and all.
"Hahahaha..."
Johnny felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand on edge. His brother only laughed like that when he was waiting for one of his pranks to go off. And the trouble was, Johnny had no idea what it was. He glanced about him quickly, but saw nothing.
"Have fun Johnny." Lui said, then stalked out of the basement.
Johnny put down the book he was reading. He looked around again carefully, then slowly moved from the room. Whatever his brother was going to do, he probably wasn't going to like. And darn it, what could it be? Horrible images involving soap, ice, rocks, sticks, knives, guns, and other such devices filled his mind. He ran from the basement before whatever was going to happen happened.
Seras yawned and stretched as she got out of her bed/coffin hybrid. She smiled, feeling tonight was going to be a good night. She got up, and began to change into her uniform, then stopped. No, she wasn't going to wear her uniform. She wasn't on duty, she was going to wear whatever she bloody wanted!
She picked out a longish denim skirt, a blue t-shirt, a light jacket, and tennis shoes. It felt so strange to not be in her uniform, but also relaxing. It felt like she could breath again since she didn't have the weight of the Hellsing crest on her shoulder.
She walked up out of the basement, noting that everyone else seemed to be up already. She hummed a little as she walked into the kitchen. At first she didn't notice, then she did a double take.
Were Alucard and Lui having a drinking contest?
Yes, it seemed that they were. Five bottles of what looked like vodka sat between them, two of them empty, and one about half. They each had a small glass in front of them. And both looked very, very ill.
Lui held his stomach in pain. Alucard put his hand on the table and breathed heavily. Oh, what had he done to deserve this.
"Give it up Alucard..." Lui said, his voice laced with pain, "You aren't going to win."
"Talk to me when you can let go of your stomach Luis."
Walter walked into the room and chuckled. He walked up beside the dumbstruck Seras and told her, "Through the course of the evening Alucard said that there was no contest that Lui could challenge him to that Alucard wouldn't win. Lui took him up on it, and challenged him to a drinking contest. I'm not sure where they got the vodka, but I must say that it's been most enjoyable to watch them suffer."
"Shut up you sadistic butler!" Lui yelled at him, his face turning green. He had been fine for the first bottle, and most of the second, but after that the human food hit him hard. Human food tasted the same, but it didn't fill any hunger one could mention, but too much of it totally wrecked a vampire's system.
As was happening to Lui and Alucard.
"Luis, if you can drink one more, you win. I can't take this anymore."
Lui smiled, and poured himself another, "Sure, no problem."
However, his hand was shaking. As he brought the liquid to his lips, his entire body was vibrating, telling him 'NO!'.
But he opened his mouth, and forced the liquid down. For a second he felt nothing.
Then both he and Alucard ran to find the nearest bathroom before their vampiric bodies purged themselves of the human food all over the place.
Seras found them both slouched on couches in the living area, still looking green. It had been a few hours since their little 'contest', but both of them felt horrible.
"Alright Luis, I admit it. You beat me."
"Gee, thanks. Perhaps you could have said that before half the blood and everything else in my body decided to pour itself up my throat."
"Are you two alright?" Seras asked happily, plopping down beside Alucard. Then they noticed she had a camera in hand.
Lui looked at her, stunned, "You didn't."
"Yep. Walter got most of the actual drinking contest to, so we have the whole thing."
"Great. I'm sure watching us vomit for a while will provide much entertainment in the future." Alucard muttered, "Luis, is their anything on this stupid box tonight?"
Lui shrugged and looked at the TV guide which was on the table by the couch, "Says that 'Interview with a Vampire' comes on in a little while."
"Seen it, read it, it bored me." Alucard said, his voice even.
Lui shrugged, then asked, "Uh... 'An American Were-wolf in London'?"
Seras shook her head, "I hate that movie."
Shrugging again, he turned back to the guide, then smiled, "Heh, 'Dracula, Dead and Loving it'."
Alucard eyed him coldly, "Do I want to know?"
"No, probably not."
Johnny walked into the room, then left emmediatly at the evil smile his brother gave him. He squeaked as he turned and ran.
Seras looked over at Lui, "What was that about?"
"You'll see. Here, you find something to watch. I'm going to my room."
Lui tossed the magazine to Seras, who began to look through it lazily. He whistled a tune as he walked, then opened the door to the basement.
He didn't see the trip wire at the top of the stairs. Needless to say, he face planted the stairs, rolled down them, and someone had conveniently placed a small kiddy pool filled with water at the bottom of the stair case. He mumbled underwater for a minute, then got up and walked, soaking wet, to his room, past a very amused Walter.
"Tell me sir, did you have a nice 'trip'?"
Lui turned to the butler, "That's corny and overused Walter. Think of another one.", then he promptly slammed the door.
Johnny was truly panicking now. What was his brother planning? What tortures had he set up? The suspense was killing him more than anything. He felt like there was a sword hanging above his head. He knew it would fall, and it wouldn't be good, but at the same time he wanted to just to get it over with.
The next night, Seras found Lui and Alucard at it, again. However, they weren't in the kitchen. They weren't in the mansion at all. Or at least, she hoped they wouldn't be.
Lui and Alucard rode horseback, where they got the horses no one knew, around the grounds. Alucard laughed, "I was doing this before your master was born Lui!"
"I highly doubt that Alucard!"
The horses jumped over a line of boxes, interrupting there conversation for a moment.
"Really, why is that?"
"My master was born around a thousand years ago Alucard. Last I checked you were what, six, seven hundred?"
Alucard glanced over at him, "A thousand years old? And she isn't on the Ancient Council?"
Lui shrugged, "Actually she is. She just never goes."
They both had to duck to avoid getting hit in the head by branches of a tree.
"Alucard, out of curiosity, do you remember where we were racing to?"
"Yes it was... Wait, did we ever say where we were racing to?"
Lui hit his forehead, "Darn it, fine whoever get's to the other side of the mansion wins."
Alucard nodded, then watched as Lui veered to the right. Then Alucard caught the younger vampire's meaning, and followed him.
Seras watched in horror as the massive animal barreled towards her. She barely had time to jump out of the way before it ran through the door, followed closely by another.
"MASTER! LUI!"
The horses steps echoed in the house as they trampled through it, laughing the whole way. They crashed through almost everything that looked slightly fragile, and dodged everything they couldn't brake.
"You'll never catch me Alucard!" Lui yelled back.
"We'll see about that Luis!"
Lui looked back to Alucard, "What are you going to do about it Alu-"
He never finished the word. Suddenly a rope came from nowhere and clothes lined him, catching him dead in the chest, knocking him off the horse.
Alucard tried to stop, but soon suffered the same fate. They both lay on the ground, aching from what they had hit, when a loud female voice yelled, "ALUCARD!"
Walter suddenly stepped from the shadows, and he pulled the rope from the wall, "Be glad I was in a good mood. If I wasn't I could have easily cut you in half."
Lui tried to sit up, but couldn't, "Walter, I'm going to beat the crap out of you, as soon as I can feel my body again."
Alright, chapter ten. Guys, I need help. I'm running out of pranks. So, come on, ideas, ideas, ideas, and reviews! Come on, come on, come on!
