Authors Notes Part 1- Hello all, I would like to this time to address an interest point brought up in a review by Dogbertcarroll. O.k to start off with I never said that Ranma figure out they were good guys all I said was that he had no need to fight them. That however is probably not enough for you so here is a list of reason, one Ceres was with the military guys and Ranma saw them go in after he detected the ghouls and vampires in the building so he made the logical conclusion that they were there to stop the threat, protect the people, and at the time maybe round up a runway genetic experiment form an underground lab under the hospital (it could happen its Ranma after all). Next we have the state of Ceres at the time remember that in the anime see was extremely weak form lack of blood and could barely see strait, so we can put her out of the threat category for the moment. Next Alucard, I have a question for you how can you call him a good guy. He is bad ass and all but he dose not fit into the category in my opinion, he is on the good side but not a good guy in the sense of niceness, fair play, and the other things most people associate with good guys but that just makes him better in my opinion. O.k on to the question remember Ranma was hoping to kill the vampire that Alucard killed so Ranma's opinion was a little bias but beyond that Ranma could feel Alucard's aura and quite understandably did not want to fight him unless he had to plus at the time him and Alexander were going at it and you can guess what Alexander's reaction to Ranma would be at that point so Ranma saw fit not to get involved until he had to and study the two of them in case he had to fight one. A lesson that he learned form Nerima was to not get involved, unless he had to, in situation like that because they tend to blow up in your face. Oh and there was all the dialogue between the characters in the anime that I did not write in also, watch it, that alone is enough.
Next why did Ranma use the Demon Head well that one is a little more complicated. You know how I mentioned how Ranma improves the Demon Head well what I was waiting to explain in later chapters, I see now I should have explained it early sorry, was that he turned it into a kind of battle mode. It combines the Soul of Ice, his battle aura, and focusing his ki into his body all in one with the added bonus of him looking scary, which gives him the edge in battle by unnerving his opponent. Now you probably want an explanation of the reasoning behind this well o.k. here it is. One the Soul of Ice clears his head and cools his body so it functions more effetely and more ki can be spread throughout the body, next the whole solid blue eye thing is Ranma upping his perception to a very high degree kind of like sharingan form Natuto but without the instant copy ability, the VOCIE is due to all the ki in his body when he uses it and is also unnerving, last the battle aura is more concentrated and evenly spread because he focusing it into the flame effect. Now if Ranma had to concentrate on these three tasks at once and fight it would be less effective and spit his attention so he combined them all into one move so he only as to think about it. The move may be more complex but now his attention is only divided into two parts instead of four ways. Also the technique really works well with ice attacks and focusing them because the Soul of Ice and his battle aura were directly connected. Plus there was the psychological aspect of it Ranma had just seen a very horrific scene and as mention didn't want to feel human when he fought the ghouls and his appearance helped to detach himself form what he had seen. This is how I rationalize the technique and him using it. Please tell me what you think people I think it make sense but your input is helpful.
'Ranma's thoughts'
"Speech"
/telepathy/
Written
Family Reunions… put down the gun please
"Hi I'm Ranma, sorry about this"
Ranma was standing there in a slowly widening pool of blood as it melted form his cloths with his Aunt pointing a gun at his head, an older gentlemen 'Great wouldn't you know now that I look at him he has a fuckin huge aura why dose this not surprise me', there were vampires somewhere, and soldiers all over the place, 'and I don't know where that priest is'. He watched his Aunt to see her reaction to when he said his name hoping against hope that she believed him. There was a moment when her eyes softened but then they hardened even more and had a look of pure fury in them that he had never seen in someone before. "How dare you vile beast, using that shape to try and trick me," said his Aunt. Walter turned and gave a strange look at his Aunt and then stared back at Ranma again with a new interest.
Ranma saw Integra tense to pull the trigger (it is kind of hard to call her Aunt when she has a gun pointed at him) 'Why me' Integra pulled the trigger and Ranma dodged. Seeing him move Walter charged in an attacked with a knife strike hopping to catch Ranma off guard and finish this quickly. Just as the strike was about hit Ranma in the neck Ranma ducked and sprang back. 'How do I end up in these situations? O.k my Aunt thinks that I am some sort of a demon and is trying to shoot me and her body guard is trying to decapitate me…. Fuck. How can I convince Aunt Integra that I'm me… passport no could be forged, curse no if she thinks that I am a shape shifter and it did its homework it would know I do that, her letters to me no that to much time for her to read and there are soldiers all over the place, what then… oh I know' Ranma into his shirt and pulls out a gold chain 'The Hellsing family symbol she gave me when I was a child.'
Integra seeing the demon throw something at her she began to take aim at the object. Then she saw that it was a golden chain with… her family crest on the chain. Integra was shocked the only people who had her crest were the Queen, Walter, herself, and… Ranma. "Oh no". Hearing Integra Walter turned to her slightly to see what was the matter and really looked at the chain that the man threw and saw it was the Hellsing crest but that meant. "Oh no". Ranma saw that his Aunt recognized the crest. Integra looked up form where the crest landed and saw Ranma looking at her with a smile on his face and tears in his eyes.
Hearing the shoots the soldier form the surrounding area moved towards the disturbance thinking some ghouls had escaped the sweep of the area. What they saw was not something they expected. A guy in a torn and bloody outfit bouncing around like a pin-ball dodging bullets form Integra and strikes form Walter. Suddenly the soldiers snap out of there daze at seeing the spectral in front of them went the strange guy in the bloody outfit reached into his shirt and threw something at Lady Integra. Seeing the man land away form Lady Integra and Walter the soldiers took aim and opened fire on the enemy that was attacking their leader.
"Ran…"
"Aun…"
BLAMBLAMBLAMBLABLAMBLAMBLAMBLMBALAM
A hail of bullets tore through Ranma's unprotected body.
"RANMA"
Ranma's body fell to the earth a pool of his own blood pooling around him "Aun..ty"
The soldiers were once again shocked to see there leader the Ice Queen of London (pardon the pun) run to the downed vampire with tears in her eyes shouting. Then something struck the soldiers that vampire did not turn to dust and was bleeding… one though went through all the soldiers mind as one 'We fucked up' and then seconds later 'Integra is going to kill us'. Walter was startled as well seeing Integra in such a state. He knew of her nephew Ranma and that she had been in almost constant contact with him through letters for over ten years but it was a shock to see that boy here dying in front of him and Integra crying her eyes out over his body.
Silence spread over the yard except for the sound of Integra sobs as she stared at the body of her nephew. She knew that he was as good as dead from the number of bullets that had hit him. His head rested in her lap. "Ranma I'm sorry this should never have happened" said Integra looking down at the dieing body of Ranma, his eyes were closed and he was becoming paler and paler as the seconds ticked by. Suddenly a red clad figure stepped forms the shadows. Integra looked up and saw Alucard standing there with his usual insane smirk on his face. Integra looked back down to Ranma slowly dieing in her arms because of her, "Save him" Integra whispered. Walter was shocked that Integra would ever say that. Alucard was also shocked but it did not show on his face. Alucard looked down at the body of the boy seeing that his life energy was almost gone. Then he focused on the smell of he boy's blood and it faintly smelled of… Hellsing. It was almost none existent but it was there. This boy was related to his Master and that meant that he was the Hellsing heir by blood… this was perfect.
Time seemed to slow down as Integra moved back a bit and Alucard moved in to bite Ranma. The soldiers were standing there stunned as Alucard moved in. Walter was looking at Integra as if she had snapped. Integra was looking at the body of her nephew the only blood family she had left and the boy who she sometimes though of as her son. Even though she could not be there for him in person she person she felt that she had raised him, taught him, and cared for him as a mother would. She couldn't bring him here though because he would have been in danger, even more than being in the care of Genma, and when she finally brought him to her but now he was dieing next to her with his blood on her hands. It was one of her greatest fears and now it had come true.
--------Ranma's Mind-------
"What the hell just happen" said Ranma. Looking around he saw that he was on a dark plane with nothing but emptiness round him. "This place sure is bright and cheerful". Thinking back Ranma suddenly remembered meeting his Aunt and then the sound of gun shoots. "Damn the soldiers. So I'm either dead and his is limbo or a really low cost after life, I'm unconscious, or last I'm dieing and this is an out of body experience". Ranma then the though to check his body "I seem to be all here and whole". Ranma then checked his ki his reserves were bleeding out at and his own life force was almost nil. "I'm dieing check, so how am I going to fix this."
After going through his ki system again he was able to piece together his injuries. "Lets see 35 gun shoot wounds check, most of my vital organs were hit check, a ton of broken or shattered bones check, and I'm bleeding to death check. The only thing that is keeping me alive right now is the fact that my body is pumping most of my ki directly into me to keep me going. O.K I don't know any techniques to get out of this one. So I get to sit here and watch myself die it would have been better if they had just shoot me in the… head…". This being Ranma's mind when he got a brilliant idea a light bulb actually did appear above his head and click on. "O.K. that is odd but never mind if I can get the priest technique right then I might be able to get out of this." Ranma began to concentrate on his aura and tried to imitate what he saw the priest aura do when he was shoot. "Almost got it just a little more… GOT IT"
-------Back to "Reality"-----
Alucard was just about to bite into Ranma's neck when his eye suddenly popped open and he took in his situation. 'A vampire is about to bite me…'. Realizing his he reacted how any human would react in this situation. The people watching the scene were quite understandably shocked to suddenly see the boy that was bleeding to death and about to be bitten by Alucard suddenly roll away and pull a pair of desert eagles out of his coat and unload on Alucard. Then to their further disbelieve pull a pair of swords out of his coat and start swinging. (If you haven't guess yet the normal human response would be violence if they had the means and Ranma has the means to bring much violence). Alucard finally recover from the shock after the third stab to his head and tried to hit Ranma away, at that point the people reacted. The soldier repointed guns at Ranma, Walter pulled out his gloves, Alucard reformed form the black puddle that was him and pulled guns, and Integra shouted "STOP THIS AT ONCE".
Again the yard was silent as all heads turned to look at Integra. Slowly Integra began to walk towards Ranma. Ranma suddenly looked down at the swords in his hands and "Pocketed" them like he was a child caught with something he should play with. "Ranma you come with me the rest of you finish swiping the area and return to base," said Integra in the kind of voice you would have to be deaf not to obey. Integra started to walk to the car with Ranma following, Integra motioned Walter to come along and drive the car. Ranma for some reason had the undeniable compulsion to open the door for Integra even if at the moment he was wondering what the hell was going on. Once everyone was in the car Walter got in a drove off.
The soldiers were still standing there wondering what the hell just happen and if they were in trouble. Even the most veteran of them who before today have swore they had seen it all were going "What the he just happened". Alucard had a insane smirk on his face and if you wanted to hear his thoughts at the moment they sounded something on the lines of a child with a new toy, o.k. rephrase that a very sadistic child with a new toy plotting the number of ways that he could play with it without actually breaking it. Ceres chose that moment to walk out of the hospital. She looked around saw a bemused Alucard, shell shocked soldiers, puddles of blood, and Integra's car moving away in the distance, "Did I miss something?"
Back in the car Ranma is sweating bullets. "Ranma" said Integra.
"Yes Aunty" came the nervous reply.
"Never scare me like that again" Integra then proceeded to break down and cried on Ranma's shoulder.
"I'm sorry Aunty I didn't mean to do that" said Ranma "From now on I will try not to be shot." Looking at her with the most honest face she had ever seen.
Integra looked up at Ranma and couldn't help but giggle at the face he was makeing "I'm sure you will" with those words Integra seemed to get a hold of herself and looked at Ranma with a piercing gaze. "Now would you mind explaining to me what you were doing at the hospital?"
"UHHH" 'How do I end up in these situations…'. Ranma then began his tale on how he left Japan and came to the hospital, by the time he was done Integra was laughing her ass off, she really enjoyed the bit with Alexander. "Umm Aunty I have a question now what was the deal with all the soldiers, the vampire in red, and all the other stuff?" asked Ranma.
"Well Ranma you see the Hellsing family has had a mission and that mission is to protect the world form the forces of the undead and supernatural."
"O.K but what about the vampire that was taking order from you?" Asked Ranma.
"That Ranma, was Alucard he is a vampire that is in the service of the Hellsing House." "O.K so basically you are the head of a fairly large organization whose mission it is to protect mankind against the occult right." Stated Ranma as if it was the most common thing in the world.
"Yes Ranma that is the jest of it." Said Integra smiling at his reaction.
"O.K then as a self appointed expert on magic and such I suggest you carpet bomb a certain valley of springs in China."
"Maybe later Ranma but now I have to ask you something. Seeing as how you are now here and you now know the history of the Hellsing family I would like to adopt you as my son."
Ranma answer was quick and decisive. He preformed a modified Amazon Glomp on his Aunt and said "Yes! Thank you Aunty".
"Ranma you do understand the dangers and the responsibility of this decision."
"Yes I have to protect the weak and those who can not defend themselves."
"Yes Ranma I had a feeling that you would say something like that. That is another reason I'm asking you to join because I know that you would somehow get involved no matter what I do."
About that time the car pulled up to the Hellsing Manor. Walter came around and opened the door for them. "Ranma welcome to your new home." Said Integra.
Author's Notes Part 2- Whew it as been awhile hasn't it but I attributed that to a combination of factors/excuses, exams and before exam school stuff(such as about 10 essays and projects due the week before exams and I like most people I did all of them the night before they were due), a sudden bout of writers block, Holiday stuff, and just plain laziness of my part. I also fucked up seriously in my plan for writing this story I planed this for as a concept and not in details so I end up with most of my later chapters ready to be written but I still have to get there arrgh. Oh well but now I'm back and I plan to stick to my goal of an update once a week. Oh and one more thing I KNOW MY GOD DAMN GRAMMER SUCKS O.K STOP POINTING IT OUT I AM WRITING THIS STORY BECAUSE I WANT TO NOT TO APPASE YOU GRAMMER MONGERS, sorry but all this review I am getting telling me my grammar sucks and nothing about the concept of the story is really getting to me and if these people really want to help then sign to be my prereader I am still in need of one. Oh and to those of you who thought the pranks that Ranma pulled at the start of the fic were bad wait till Ranma and Alucard start going at it. Oh and if you think this chapter was a little short the chapter should start getting longer after this. I hope to have at least 90 reviews by the time I next update this story make it happen.
OMAKE OMAKE
Ranma eyes popped and saw a vampire was about to bite him and he reacts. The people watching the scene were quite understandably surprised to see the boy that Alucard was about to bite suddenly roll away, pull a large mallet out from somewhere, and shout "VAMPRE NO BAKA" proceeding to smack said vampire into Lower Earth Orbit. There was complete silence till the boy said "I always wanted to do that to someone". Facefaults and sweatdrops all around.
