I don't own Hellsing, Kiora is mine though.
"You won't get away this time little one."
Purple flames shot out of Jaeger's hand toward me. I managed to dodge it and landed away from the ring of fire around us. The wires were out of my gloves and I slashed at him. He was unchanged, as if I'd missed.
"It's no use little one. Just give up."
"Never!"
He launched another set of flames and me and I dodged. This time, however, I wasn't lucky. One of the flames hit my leg and I gasped in pain. I landed hard and I felt something snap.
"What is it little one? Are you hurt? Do you want your Daddy to save you?" Jaeger jeered.
"Shut up Jaeger." I growled.
Slowly, I managed to stand. The pain radiated from my ankle and it was almost too unbearable to stand. Just then, I noticed another spread of flames coming at me.
Grimacing, I jumped out of the way. Then, the ground seemed to ignite. Landing hard, I looked around. I was standing on the only part of the floor that wasn't covered by the purple flames.
"Don't tell me your done little one?" Jaeger's voice came from above me.
He was standing on some crates piled high towards the ceiling. Summoning all of my strength, I leapt onto one of the bottom crates. I could hear him laugh as I scrambled to the top of it. Glaring at him, I started to climb the crates.
Each time I touched one it would wobble and almost give way. They seemed to be trying to throw me into the inferno below. Inch by agonizing inch, I made my way up the crates. Hours seemed to pass as I climbed and I never seemed to go anywhere. Finally, my hand grasped the edge of the top box. I heaved myself over the edge and sat sprawled on the box for a few seconds.
"It is about time you got there little one. I was beginning to think that my little trap had killed you."
"You can't get rid of me that easily Jaeger." I spat as I stood up.
My ankle felt like it was on fire. The rest of my body was sore from the climb and dodging so much.
"I know that little one. Now, let's end this."
He lunged at me but I was ready. The wires sliced through him, yet he was unfazed. I was able to dodge at the last second. Somehow, I managed to stay on the crate, but not by much. Another burst of flames came at me but I didn't have time to dodge. My arms went in front of my face and I waited for the impact.
When the flames hit me, I could feel all of the air rush out of my body. I felt myself being thrown backward, off the crate. The force was so great that it threw me into the wall. As I hit the wall, I could feel my shoulder pop out of the socket. Closing my eyes, I waited for the end.
As I hit the ground, ever part of me seemed to break. All I could feel was pain, no fear or sadness or anger, only pain. Everything around me seemed to spin.
An evil laughter surrounded me. It barely registered. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Jaeger land next to me. He was smiling.
"It seems as if I have defeated you Kiora. The Princess of Death has succumbed to what she has been fighting against her entire life." He laughed.
"No." I managed to whisper.
"Pardon?"
Slowly, I managed to raise myself to my elbows. My heart was racing and I felt my breath become ragged.
"You can't defeat me Jaeger."
"You are dying little one, there is no way you can fight back now. And even if, by some miracle you do survive, your illness will kill you."
"How do you-?" I could feel blood dripping from the corner of my mouth.
"I know many things little one, you that. And now that you are gone I will be able to end this all. Armageddon is here!"
"No!" I screamed.
A white light enveloped me. It didn't bring me pain; instead it made me feel powerful. That power began to grow and grow. Suddenly, there was an explosion and the whole room shook.
I opened my eyes to see Jaeger leaning against the wall, blood pouring out of numerous wounds. It looked like he was struggling to stand. Fear seemed to radiate from him. He glared at me.
"This is not over little one." He growled before disappearing in a purple flame.
My world suddenly became fuzzy and then went black.
A/N: I would like to mention that my beta editor, Jen, edited this chapter. She is my hero because most of the things she found I would have never seen. Thanks Jen!
Anyway, please keep reviewing, I love seeing reviews when I come home from school.
