Surviving Vampiric War Fare
CHAPTER SIX
SINS POV
I stood a few feet from him as he leaned against the wall bloody tears slowly falling down his pale marble cheeks, though he did not tremble, or a sound escape his lips, I knew he was greiving, apparently the real Alucard had hit hard in this dream Dracula's dark heart. I took a few steps closer out reaching a hand but stopped as a loud growl rumbled in his chest as his auburn eyes looked up at me, glaring, as if I had won some sort of battle, perhaps I had, perhaps the pain was to great and now it was realized for this No Life King. But I had little more time to contiplate this sudden breakdown for he quickly rose to his feet looking in the direction of a balcony, looking much like a dog who has heard something that does not belong in their yard. He quickly wipped the bloody trails from his face before running out onto the balcony and gazing out, I followed quickly behind, causing him to glance side long at me before looking back out. It was early morning, the stars and moon low in the sky, and the fading tinge of pink remaning painted upon the horizon. My mouth fell open at what lay before my eyes. It was a hundred, no five hundred men approaching our location, some shouting threats no doubt to the vampire who stood before me. "Will they ever give up?" I heard him muttered before I gazed up at him. Who where those men? He turned sharply to me. "Sin." I looked at him directly. He sighed. "It seems you are now my problem, and I must protect you, stay here while I go," "No! I'm not letting you go out there alone! Are you crazy?" He looked down at me as though I were crazy. "I took four years of fencing lessons, I'm sure I could at least fight a few of the guys." "Noble, but I can't let you die." He snapped before picking me up and throwing me over his shoulder before walking away from the balcony. I smacked him on the back and shoulders trying to get him to release me but with no avail. "Besides, I will not be alone." He stated as he shoved me into a room and locked the door. I banged on it before running to the window as to watch the battle that lay ahead. My eyes widdened as around twenty of the men were taken quickly to the ground as a large pack of wolves attacked from the forest edge. 'Holdy crap, he can control ANIMALS?!'
HELLSING STINS POV
I sat at Sins bedside, I couldn't believe how fast my life seemed to have been going downhill. How do these nightmares get created? Their like, real, but not, how could I have had the sent of Vlad upon me when I actually never met the man, only the vampire upon my awakening? If only had hadn't had that nightmare two years ago, Sin wouldn't be laying in this bed helplessling, the nurses and doctor Integra had called did all they could for her, and now, she was in a coma. A shiver ran down my spine at the thought of losing my only friend. A tear fell from my eye and slid slowly and hottly down my cheek when a white hanky was waved in front of my face. I blinked surprised before looking up to see Alucard had joined me, odd I hadn't noticed his arrivel. "Thanks." I took it and wipped my eyes. "You should rest Stin." He stated before grabbing another chair and sitting down next to me. I looked at him as he eyed the slow rising and falling of Sin's chest. I absent mindedly took his hand in mine, causing him to look at me surprised by the gesture. I stood and his eyes followed mine as I held his hand. "Its not to late Count." I whispered before squeezing his hand before giving him a side ways hug. "Good night." I whispered before walking out of the hospital wing suddenly feeling very tired. My shoes made quiet pitter pattering upon the marble floors and I paused as I passed Walter who had just entered the hall from the study. "Walter?" "Yes miss?" I turned and looked at the older fatherly gentlmen. "Do you think, Alucard...longs for salvation?" The butler gazed at me for a long moment before setting down the book he was holding and taking my hand before leading me into the study, sitting me down upon the sofa near the fire, taking a seat near me, holding my hands in his much larger gloved ones. "Stin, I have known Alucard for many, many years, and though he truley enjoys the kill and slaughter, he detaste the slaying of the innocent, no one ever seems to notice this. He would never kill a innocent human if he had a choice, now, if ordered to by Sir Integra, he will merely because he has to. But he truley appriciates life, and I think he misses it. I think he wishes to be forgiven, and longs for salvation, but I do not think he knows, or remembers how to ask for it. For salvation is a free gift given, all we must do is recieve it." I smiled at him, understanding him completely before gazing into the fire. "Perhaps, all he needs is a little help from those who love him." Walter smiled at me and gently rubbed my hand with his thumb. "And I believe that, we all love him, and would all love to join him in paradise."
ALUCARDS POV
I watched as Sin held onto life by mere threads, and I knew, deep down, she wasnt going to make it. I couldn't let her die, I wouldn't. I rose to my feet and walked over, gently removing the blankets form her body before sitting on the edge of the bed and pulling her into a sitting position. I lifted the night shirt she had been changed into and let it rest upon her shoulders before carefully removing the gazz and medical tape that covered the whip wounds. It pained me to see the still open wounds, but ignored my sudden longing to tear into some one for hurting this girl before leaning down and slowly running the tip of my tongue along one of the gashes. I lifted my head and watched as it healed. I repeated this gesture for a good five minutes, being careful as not to cause her any pain, though I doubted she could feel anything. Soon all the wounds were healed and the skin merely tinged pink before I gently lowered her night shirt and lay her gently back upon the bed. I pulled the blankets back over her, remaining where I sat gazing down at her, listening to the beating of her weakened heart. "You really do have a beating heart under that mask of yours." I started before looking up towards the door to see Integra standing there, cigar held delicetly between her long gloved fingers. I rose quickly from the bed. "Sir Integra." She smiled and entered farther, her healed boots tapping against the marble floor as she approached the bed, looking down at Sin before gazing intently, yet warmly up at me. "No matter how much you denye it Alucard, I know you care for us all here at Hellsing." My eyes narrowed. "And what if I do?" She dropped the cigar and stepped on it, the maids would have to clean that up, before walking around the bed and approaching me, like a fox approaching a rabit, and I was the rabit. I took a step back to find myself pinned between the wall and my master who stepped closer, leaning against me as she took my red tie in hand tugging a bit causing me to hunch, or noses mere inches form each other. "I want to hear you admit it."
SINS POV
I soon grew bored watching the battle, it wasn't very interesting to see a large hellish beast dog thing devouring people, so I trudged over to the bed and flopped down upon it, actually rather bored out of my mind. "Tell me Alucard, tell me the truth." I sat bolt straight up at the voice of Integra. A frown line formed upon my face. "Alright, I do care." 'Wha the hell? Whats going on?' "I care about Seras, and really only want her to be happy, that is why I have yet to kill Pip. I care about Walter, for he and I were once very close, the best of friends, I care about Stin and Sin for, though always under misfortune, they have become a part of the Hellsing Family. And I care about you," A pause, why the hell was I hearing a conversation between Alucard and Integra? Either this dream was getting weirder, or something good was happening? "...my master, I have always cared about you, and would do anything for you." "And what if you were ever to be unleashed? If I were never to bare a heir, and die?" "I would morn for you, I would fall to my knees upon your grave and morn." "You wouldn't begin where you left off over a hundred years ago?" "No. My life has meaning once again, and that is to serve Hellsing, and to serve God. The Hellsing orginization is on a mission for God, and I am only one of its soldiers. If you were ever to unleash me, releasing me from Hellsing, I would not go, I would vow to be your bondservant, a slave by choice." I felt myself smile idiotically and sniffle. "Ah, thats so sweet! ITS ABOUT FREAKIN TIME ALUCARD!" I shoated to the empty room before falling back onto the bed, a warm fuzzy feeling warming me up. I was loved.
I KNOW THE END WAS VERY MUSHY AND LOVY DOVY! But I am a hardcore Alucard/Integra fan, and I believe just by watching the OVA that Alucard knows that he'll end up losing Integra in the long run and regrest turning from God. So deal with it! On a lighter note, the next chapter should be long, and it is the last chapter, so yes it'll be long. So you have one more chapter and a proloug or epiloug what ever a loug of some sort to look forward to. Please review, CRITIZISM IS WELCOMED AND NEEDED!
