AN: (ducks sharp objects and rabid reviewers) Heh. I'm sorry I didn't update for a while. Busy. And lack of inspiration. Well, this is the next installment of 'The Next Angel of Death.' I forgot to say when this fic takes place. Since the fic will mostly take place in the hellsing universe. This fic is kind of a Hellsing spoiler too, so you have been warned. I will be using elements from both the manga and anime series, but mostly from the manga because I like the manga better. Lots more dark humor. So the setting when after the Valentine brother attacked the Hellsing HQ. I hope this chapter doesn't seem half-assed and boring. Tell a sistah how you feel in your reviews but don't flame. Flames will be used to light my chimney fires and to laugh in your face from your immaturity and ignorance. So lets get this party started people!
Disclaimer: I don't own shit. So leave me alone! (sniffle) ;-;
The Next Angel of Death
Kagome was lead into the imposing house with a briskness and excitement. The Hellsing residences followed the related duo into the house. Walter took his niece's hand and led her up the winding stairs to the second floor. Sir Integral raised a finely shaped eyebrow at her butler/bodyguard's subtle show of affection. She just shrugged and headed to her office for her afternoon tea and smoke. So it only left Alucard and Seras alone.
"Police girl, there is something off about that girl. Keep an eye on her and watch her closely. I felt something strange come from her aura when I touched her hand. I don't trust her," growled the Hellsing pet.
"Master, I will do as you said," murmured the young vampire.
"Good. Go drink your medi-blood and meet at the firing range. You have much to improve on Police girl," The No Life King said while phasing through a wall to his quarters.
"Yes Master!" chirped Seras. The young vamp-ling ran off to the kitchen to feed and then get ready for her master.
- Kagome and Walter -
Walter escorted the young girl to her living quarters for the next year or so. The young miko light out a squeal of delight when she saw her new living arrangements. The décor was blood red, black, with hints of purple. There was a huge dark red oak, four-poster bed. There was a desk, wardrobe closet, dresser, a vanity dresser and chair, and night dresser with a lap next to the bed. A pretty and very exquisite room. The duo placed the suitcases and bags on the floor to be unpacked later. The young miko was going to explore her room farther but her uncle took her hand again to escort her to his Mistress's office to formally meet her. He gave her a short and informative tour of the house along the way. They reach the desired door and knocked on it. A stern "Come in" came through heavy door. Walter opens the door and ushered his niece through the door and in front of the infamous Sir Integral Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing. The said woman was hunched over some papers as she puffed on her over-priced cigar. She looked up and straightens up immediately when she saw that she was not alone. The imposing woman gave Kagome a once over then she held out her hand. Kagome meekly walked up to the intimidating woman and shook it. Integra gave her a small half smile and stood up.
"Welcome Kagome to Hellsing manor. I am Sir Integra, leader of the Hellsing Agency where we protect the innocent masses, The Protestant and her Majesty, the Queen from the evils of the night. I will not feed you a bunch of crap about vampires and such not being real because they are real and will take pleasure in drinking your blood and making your life a living hell. We were attacked a few weeks ago some rogue freak and vampire nazi organization called the Millennium Empire; they killed off all my men and I had to hire a mercenary group to work for me now. You will meet them tomorrow; for now we need to give you proper training if you are to survive here. Commander Fargason will start you out on your weapons training and then you will be handed over to Seras and Alucard for further training. For now, head do to the shooting range to start your target practicing training. Walter show her where that is," instructed the Hellsing Mistress.
"Yes, Sir Integral, I will show her and come to serve you your mid-afternoon snack," Walter murmured.
"Come Kagome-chan."
"Yes Uncle Walter," Kagome answered.
"Kagome, just call me Walter dear," the former hellsing opt said.
"Ohh ok. I'm coming Waallterr," Kagome stammered, still getting used to calling her uncle just by his first name.
"That's better dear. Lets go," Walter smiled as he beckoned his niece to come along. The duo murmured 'good day Miss Hellsing' and exited the office leaving a slightly smirking Integra. The mistress sat down and started puffing on her cigar. She let out sigh and uttered, "It's not nice or proper to eavesdrop on people's conversation Alucard." A dry chuckle was heard through the office as the nosferatu phased into office from the ceiling upside down doing a flip to turn right side up. He was had an intrigued look on his face as he sipped on his type A medi-blood while staring at the closed front door.
"Why master, I was only just making my own observation of her. There is something about that girl I can't put my finger on but something is off about her," the vampire uttered.
"I since that about her too Alucard. Keep an eye on and make sure she doesn't get killed," Integra said.
"As my master wishes," smirked Alucard as he phased out the office.
- Kagome and Walter. Shooting Range –
"Ok Kagome. I will equip you with what you need to fight these ghouls, freaks, and vampires," Walter said as he dragged an extremely heavy black case up to the table. He gave one grunt as he slammed the case on to the table.
"Yes Walter," Kagome said. Kagome was excited. She fought and faced off against all sorts of demons but never these kinds of demons called vampires. Strangely, Kagome never thought vampires existed even after fighting all sorts of demons. The young teamed with excitement over her new training. She new this was what she needed for now. She had to get away from the Feudal Era and Inuyasha to clear her mind and find herself and inner strength.
"Ok. This will be your instruments of doom in fight the evil of the night from now on," Walter deadpanned as he flicked the switch on the black suitcase. Kagome let out a small gasp, as she looked at all the deadly goodies in the box. She ran a slim finger over the crossbow and arrows. The bow was made of dark mahogany painted a dark almost black purple with tiny crosses engraved at the bases of the bow with real melted down bless Lanchester Cathedral crosses. The string on was strong and sliver. The arrow was made with same wood and the arrow tips were from the same blessed sliver. Right next to the bow and arrows was a dark purple version of Alucard's Jackal but much smaller and doesn't weigh as much and with small modifications. Instead of 6 rounds the gun held 10 bullets in it's magazine. The writing on the gun said, 'Speak with dead' and 'Jehovah is among us as in Heaven.' The set back to the gun was that the recoil kick was powerful enough to take a normal person's arm off. Next to Jackal jr was an a silver .9mm Smith and Wesson handgun, a 5 inch dagger with dark purple handle, and a pair of buttery smooth black gloves like Walters'. Kagome turned to her open with her mouth hanging open. She ran her slim fingers over her deadly equipment again.
"Th- th- these arrrreee mind?!?" Kagome babbled.
"But of course Kagome. These are yours for you to keep, train, and do as you please with. I will help you along the way but you will be in good hands with Commander Fargason and Officer Pickman," answered Walter. Right after he said their names to uttered gentlemen came through the door. One was an older balding man with a scar on his left eye; the other was a handsome, sinewy, youth with dark brown hair and amethyst colored eyes. Kagome blushed as the younger man sized her up with his intense eyes. Walter stood and greeted the men.
"Gentlemen, I'm glad you came. I would like you to meet my niece Kagome. Kagome this is Commander Fargason and Officer Pickman. They will be training along with Seras, Alucard, and myself," Walter said. The commander took Kagome's hand and shook it firmly. Pickman bowed over Kagome's hand and kissed with a slight smile.
"Pay attention to what these men and women say Kagome dear, it will be life saving and will determine if you come back alive or dead," Her uncle stated gravely. Walter gave his niece one last hug and left in the care of the two men.
- Time leap. The next night. Storage room. –
You can here the rough voices of a bunch of rowdy men come from the large room. All the men sat around on crates and such. They were talking amongst each but most of them were gathered around one. Here was their leader, Captain Bernadette of the mercenary group called the Wild Geese. The said man was tall and lanky boarding upon lean. He wore an eye patch over his left eye, a bandage over the bridge of his nose, and his dirty blonde hair was long and braided into one single sloppy braid. He had a beat-up safari hat plopped on his head and beige army looking wear. He let out an annoyed sigh while he lit up his cancer stick that was a cigarette.
" When in the bloody 'ell iz zat damn woman comin'?" Bernadette growled. His long time chum, John Pickman gave him a tip about a job opening here at this manor that required men and women who could be guns for hire. The mercenary captain thought of this new job as the big money maker. From what his buddy was telling him, it looked like this noble chit was will to pay big for soldiers and any type of professional killers. So the mercenary captain jumped on this opportunity and pounded out the details with the woman's butler. As of right now the said noble woman was running late and his men were getting antsy and impatient among with himself. He was about to tell his men to pack up and get ready to move out when the noble woman stormed through the door with her butler and a young woman in the Hellsing uniform. The woman was imposing and intimidating. She sized each one of his men up and sign as she turned to her Butler.
"Are you sure about this Walter? Some of there men may be even dirty Catholics," uttered the imposing woman.
"Why of course Sir Integra. We have no choice or spare time. We need to regroup and assemble a so what competent group of bloodthirsty men as soon as possible, My Lady. Why can't let that scum roam the earth for a second longer," the butler said with conviction.
"Yes, we most obliterate those bastards to ash. I will see them in the fiery pits of hell before I let these nazi scum hurt anymore people," Integra growled. She turned back to the mercenaries and signed. She walked up to the captain and held out her hand and shook Bernadette.
"Capitan Bernadette I presume? I am Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing. You have been hired to kill and destroy vampires, ghouls, freaks, and such," Integra stated.
"Wha--?! You most be Barmy!" the Capitan shouted.
"There is no way vampires can exist you dig bat wench!" someone shouted from the back. And eye muscle twitched in Integra's left eye but didn't pull out and unload the magazine into the crowd.. Yet.
"Well, you simply don't know. No, to be accurate, you simply have not been informed. The Hellsing Agency was formed one hundred years. We conducted our operations beneath an unsuspecting populace as an instrument in war against vampires. It's hard to understand no matter how I say it. So behold. This is your enemy, a vampire," the Hellsing mistress stated. She pointed to Seras as she uttered the last sentence.
Seras fidgeted as all eye fell on her. Everyone's mouth hung open in stunned silence for a few minutes until the Capitan shook himself out of his stupper and walked up to the young vampire. He poked Seras in the chest a few times. Seras was starting to get annoyed when the Capitan opened his mouth.
"Ah.ah hahahahahahahahahahaha!! You gotta be kiddin' me! Zes is not a vampire! If she is a vampire then I'm the bloody King of Monsters," Bernadette heckled. Seras had had enough. She lightly placed her hand on his shoulder and with a flick of her wrist she sent him flying across the room into the wall without even thinking.
"Ha! That will tell you!" Seras smirked.
"Sh—sh- she really izzzz a vampire!?!? Freak!" The Captain shouted as he picked himself off the ground. Seras was about to knock the Captain a bit more when her master phased through the wall.
"Of course she is a vampire. Among us she is the lowest of the low but she is obviously a vampire," Alucard said with a sinister grin that sent a chill down almost everyone's spine. He looked the new personnel over and snorted.
"Not much with guts I see. Will they be of any use to us, Master," Alucard deadpanned with a skeptical look on his evil face.
"Alucard!!" Integra shouted out with annoyance. She glared at her servant while he just kept on scaring the new help. Walter came running into the room with his niece followed by Fargason and Pickman.
Pickman saw his friend on the ground sucking his thumb in the fetal position and gave a long-suffering sigh and went over to help his friend. Fargason went over to Integra's side to tell her about Kagome's progress so far.
Kagome observed the entire coming and goings with wide eyes. She couldn't wait to go out on to the field and prove herself. She wanted to prove to herself that she was not weak and could defend herself and didn't need Inuyasha's help or protection. She missed her friends dearly and so much it hurts. She hopped Shippo, Sango, kiarra, and Miroku were watching out each other and taking care. She wanted to see them but she banished them out of her mind for now. She needed to concentrate on her training. She was shook out of musing as she listened on what her uncle and Sir Integra were saying.
"They sent you a letter, My Lady," Walter said as a slight evil sneerish grin formed on his face.
"Who?" Integra asked.
"Vatican Section XIII," Walter answered.
"The Iscariot Agency?! What do they want?" Integra groaned.
Kagome gave both of them a confused look seeing as she didn't have a shred of a clue on who and what they were talking about. She never heard about a section like that before. Kagome filed away that piece info to ask her uncle about later. Alucard was about make a rude remake about his master's groaning when a low level officer came running into the room.
The boy came skidding into a stumbling stop in front of the Hellsing Mistress and bowed. After he bowed he saluted as started sweating like a pig while he started to speak. "Sss—sir Integra! There has been a freak and ghoul attack down town. It's urgent and needs to be attended to right away," the boy finished.
"Right. Ok, you rag tag bunch of half-baked simpletons. This is your first assignment. Don't screw it up and for God's sake don't get killed. May God and her Majesty be with you all. Move out," Integra commanded.
Everyone started looking confused for a minute until they started getting their baring. Every one of the mercenaries locked and loaded for their first vampire assignment. Seras ran out the room to get her Harkonnen cannon and bullets. Alucard let out a bone chilling laugh and murmured something about 'Going out to have some fun and kill vampire freak scum' as he phased through the wall. Kagome ran out the room to get her equipment. She was really excited. This was going to be her first vampire hunt.
- Time leap. The thick of a vampire freak melee. -
Bullets, guts, blood, and dusk flew through the air as a fierce battle was going on. Alucard walked casually through the battle with a bored look while capping another filthy and pathetic freak and ghoul. The Hellsing trash-man turned up his nose in anger as a little turd of a ghoul smashed his sunglasses. Those were his third pair this week. The poor ghoul paid dear with his insignificant life. Bernadette and his boys were doing pretty well taking out freak and ghoul with ease. On the far right of the field was Kagome. She was handling her own. She slid through one freak's legs as she unload the empty magazine clip on her Smith and Wesson and put a new one in. Blood and ghoul dusk was splattered everywhere and on her. Kagome jumped to her feet and ran toward her bow and arrows that had been kicked out her hands awhile a go. She wasn't paying attention so she never noticed the five ghouls and freaks behind her. As she reached for her bow she let out a blood-curdling scream as she felt two freak grab her and held her down. Tear slid down her eyes as she thought she was doomed when from out of no where came an acid green whip hitting the freaks holding her down and the left over ghouls were taking care off by another guy in the shadows. Kagome got up to thank her rescuers. As she was turning around she open her mouth to say 'Thank You' she jumped back and pointed.
"It's you! What in the hell are you doing in London, England?" Kagome stuttered.
"Hn. We can be asking you the same question Kagome," the cloaked shadow growled.
"Like I would tell you Lord Fluffy!" the young miko spat. The shadow-cloaked figure growled and was going to give a scaving retort when the other shadowed figure spook.
"Kagome! It's such a surprise to see you. And you're not with dogturd anymore either! Great," the shadow said as the person stepped into the weak moonlight along with the other person. Kagome was going to say something back when she heard the recognizable sound of a gun hammer being cocked back.
"Who are you and who do you work for demon filth," Alucard barked.
Kagome stood in front of the two figures so as to stop Alucard from shooting. Kagome said to the vampire, "It's ok. I know them. They won't harm anyone. This Kogua of demon wolf tribe and is in charge of the eastern part of Japan and this Lord Sessohmaru, the dog demon lord of the west."
- Vatican Section XIII, The Iscariot Agency. Rome, Italy -
As the wind rustled through the leafs of the maple trees you can here kids laughing and running around in joy as they went back to their rooms in the orphanage of the Vatican church. As you entered the church you could see priests and nuns rushing around and such. But they are not important now. There are three with in the sea of nuns and priests that are the most of this particular agency.
First as you look through the crowd you can see priest who towered over all the others with his lean body and bright blonde hair. What stood out most about this man were his kind lime green eyes behind his gold-framed eyeglasses and soft Scottish brag. But appearances can be deceiving. This man was Iscariot's top agent in the war of suppressing heathens, heretics, pagans, and any other unholy monsters that roamed the night. His name is Father Alexander Anderson, the paladin regenerator who used blessed machete knifes and a bit of holy magic against evil. He is also on the somewhat of the psychotic side, this is a man who's bad side you don't want to get anywhere near on.
Walking next to him was a really tall and pretty nun, wearing priest attire. She wore shades over her greenish-hazel eyes and is of Russian heritage. The said woman ran a gloved hand through her short wheat blonde hair. She looked innocent enough but she too was an earthly agent of divine punishment. Her weapons of choice were guns. She is an expert marks men and a valuable asset to the agency. Her name is Sister Heinkel Wulf.
And walking meekly next to agent Wulf was a pretty little Japanese nun who wore round wire framed glasses. The said woman fidgeted with her habit as she tucked a piece of raven black hair behind her ear. But this small nun was probably the most dangerous of the three besides Anderson. The girl is a split personality berserker. Her weapon of choice was a ninja sword when she slipped into her other split personality. Her name is Sister Yumiko Takagi. Her other self is simply named Yumie.
Three had just come from a briefing from their commander and chief of the agency Enrico Maxwell. They had received an order from his Holiness himself, the Pope. They were to fly out to South Africa to squash and stamp out a rebellious bunch of dirty heretics in order stop them from going globe with chemical warfare. As the three headed out the front doors you could see in the far corner of the courtyard was a window where their chief, Enrico, watched them go. The said man let the curtain drop back in place and heaved a long-suffering sigh as he sat back in his chair. The tired political priest ran a gloved hand through his long ponytail that was tied back with a simple silk black ribbon. He too, had orders from the Pope. He was to meet with that filthy Protestant piglet, Sir Integra Hellsing. Oh how he loathed those Protestant heretics with every fiber of his being. But he would do it anyways, because his Holiness said so.
- Feudal Era. With Inuyasha and Co. -
Groans could be heard as Inuyasha yelled at them to move their asses and speed up. Miroku gripped his staff a little harder. He was ready to fight Inuyasha if had to in order for them to stop for a moment of rest. Ever since Kagome left, Inuyasha went nuts and started hauling them to and fro in a frantic search for the jewel shards now. Shippo cried his self to sleep at with Kirara offering a little comfort; by licking away his tears. He still called out for his adopted mom from time to but knew she couldn't come back for now and her disappearance was just as hard just as hard on everyone else. Everyone was on pins and needles around Inuyasha and Kikyou now. The crew would admit but they were worried a lot about Inuyasha a lot and it didn't help with Kikyou's presence being around. Inuyasha was slowly losing it. Sango and the rest of them hoped Kagome came back soon. They don't know how much longer it before it becomes not safe to stay and be with Inuyasha anymore.
- A damp abandon cave -
"ku ku ku ku ku!!! It looks like the poor little mutt has lost it. And the fool still holds a flame for that whore of a wench Kikyou. He still doesn't get that Kikyou doesn't want him. She wants to kill him. Ha! Simpleton. It will lead to his downfall. For now I will let him think that he actually have a chance of defeating me and getting all the jewel shards. Oh, that reminds me. Kagura! Come here," murmured the infamous and most foul Nuraku. He signaled for his other incarnation Kanna to put her mirror down so he can watch his other incarnation walk up to him.
His incarnation slowly made her way up to him and bowed her head, waiting for orders. The air was so thick; you could smell the hate and murderous thoughts waft in the air and around Kagura and Naraku.
"Kagura, you are to find out where that other meddlesome miko went and steal those jewels shard from her. And please refrain from killing her. I want that pleasure to be my own," Nuraku said with an oily sinister smile.
Kagura fought back a shudder and nodded affirmative.
TBC…
AN: (lets out a tired sigh) Yes! Done for now. You like? I hope you do. This will be the last chapter I will upload until the New Years. If some of you fans of the Hellsing manga don't recognize John Pickman and Peter Fargason, that's because they come from the anime. If some of you Hellsing anime fans don't recognize Bernadette, Yumiko, Heinkel, or Enrico Maxwell, that's because they come from the manga. One of my favorite manga characters is Capitan Bernadette. I really like when song that silly and dirty army ditty from one of my favorite army movies of all time. It went something like this:
I don't know but I've been told,
Eskimo pussy is mighty cold.
Tastes good!
Mighty good!
Good for me!
Good for you!
If any of you can name the movie from which that line came from then I'll make the next chapter 4 pages longer than this chapter and have the next chapter come out within the next week.
I need some help though. I have some sort of ideas on couples and pairings but I need other opinions and ideas. So tell about pairing you want to see in this fic besides Alucard/Kagome because they are the main pairing. How about Kouga/Seras? Bernadette/Seras? Enrico/Heinkel(read the manga to know what I mean) sexual tension or one-sided love/admiration? Some Pickman and Kagome flirtation? Some friendly Anderson/Yumiko brotherly and sisterly fluff? Yumie and any other guy(hey, yumiko's other self needs some action too. ;)? And finally, some major Integra/Sesshomaru back and forth barbs and snide remarks that will lead later into a coupling? Tell me!!! Happy Holidays reviewers! And a Happy New Year! Don't forget to R&R!! Later! .V
