CHAPTER 10

A.N. Warning to young readers. Let's just say there is a rather somewhat graphic sex scene. Basically your imagination will give away what is happening, though I tried not to go into a lot of detail about what happens. This will probably be the only story I have and plan on writing among the others that I have going on that will be this intense along the sex lines. The others have been suggestive while this one delves very close to X-rated or Mature like Fanfiction has their rating system as.

For any of you Stargate readers of mine, and anyone who is thinking I am some sick deranged pervert, I am not. I just think Seras is an exceptionally beautiful woman and, I do admit that I still have my virginity and if Hellsing was real, I would go work there and ask for her to change me so that I would be forever her fledgling. Seriously, I would. I think between the two of us we could help each other keep our humanity while learning to become powerful vampires for Sir Integra. Anyway, enough of my useless ramblings yet again……

The attack inside the Tower of London continued and was getting bad for the Hellsing soldiers. It wasn't the outnumbered problem they had, it was the supernatural and faster, besides also being more powerful enemies they had that was the extreme trouble they were dealing with.

"This is squad three inside the Tower and we are surrounded! We need backup!" came over the line. "We need back up…."

The rest heard over the line was his screaming death. A couple men that were trying to get to them were near a hallway inside and started checking it out. One guy stayed behind to keep watch on the other guys back and didn't notice the Freaks were behind them in the water. He saw the other guy walking down the hallway turn around as a Freak from above dropped down and stabbed him in the head with a knife. He fired his explosive round and was surprised it didn't kill the Freak, which ended up having a demon face. Two Freaks behind him slit his throat making him drop his weapon that exploded as it went off on impact of the ground. The Freaks jumped away and ran quickly as part of the Tower wall came tumbling down.

As the attack continued and explosions kept taking place, the news kept reporting it instead of it being stopped like it normally would have been. The Hellsing troops inside were loosing quickly. They had little chance against the enemy since they didn't know they were more than just Freaks and the fact it was a trap. Outside in one of the A.P.C. units, Ferguson was trying to contact different groups as he heard cries for help or reports of other squads doing in the enemy, which was far and few between.

"Montelbon, head around and back up Gambles unit." Peter said over the gunfire on the line. "Montelbon!"

All he got was static on the lines.

"Damn!" he said tossing the CB unit aside.

He got out and looked back across the bridge while seeing a couple helicopters above them. He watched as a few other A.P.C.'s came in and rammed or knocked the Hellsing ones out of the way.

"What's going on?" Integra asked as Walter followed her out of the catacombs.

"The British Army can hardly overlook a large, full-armed unit attacking a National Monument, especially with the Queens flag raised." he said. "Nor can they confirm the existence of a demonically possessed occult, or a state sponsored, demon hunting organization with vampires on the payroll. Therefore the Army has been ordered to rescue her Majesty at any cost."

"But we all know that the Queen isn't even there. Why hasn't the Round Table stopped…." she said suddenly stopping at the stairs going up to the level with her office. "It's another trap. Someone at the Round Table put this into play well after the incident with the General in that conference."

"Someone is getting revenge on us then. Obvious only because the Round Table gave the order to attack." he said.

"Whoever it was in that room that is doing this will pay dearly." she growled.

There was a lot of people watching the attack on the Tower from a distance, but the army was keeping them behind a line. Ferguson was still by the command A.P.C. and not moving away for cover or anything else.

Inside, a group of three men were fighting a few of the Freaks and doing a good job, or at least better than most of the other troops. Another Freak went down in a hail of gunfire quickly from two men.

"This is Pickman." the Captain that was given the orders earlier by Ferguson said into his mike. "We are headed towards Beacham Tower."

He didn't get a response though and tapped the mike on his helmet.

"What's the situation outside? Portney?"

He turned to look as one of his men was pulled into the trees dying horribly.

"Blast." he said pointing his MP-5. "Hmm?"

He turned to see a couple of Freaks walking towards him so he pulled his pistol firing. Seeing it was doing little good, he used his MP-5 as well. But the two kept walking towards him.

"Damn!"

The Freak that killed the man behind him jumped from the trees and was almost upon Pickman when his head exploded.

"Alucard?"

"Sorry, I'm running a bit late." he said holding his smoking Jackal. He fired taking one of the Freaks out in front of the man.

"I abhor tardiness." he said firing his weapons into the other until it dropped dead.

He turned and said a prayer over the other guy that died and then shot him in the head to ensure he didn't get up. Alucard watched from one of the walkways above before starting to walk off.

"After loosing so many men, I better be victorious." Pickman said as he tossed his helmet aside.

"Heh. Spoken like a true soldier of Hellsing."

"Where the hell is Sir General and Miss Victoria?!"

"They are on their way as we speak."

"Good. The enemy will lose for sure and maybe I'll make it out of this alive." he said reloading. "Then I will yell at them for not being here before hand."

Back in her office, she was watching the news with Walter nearby while she was yelling at someone on the phone as the news talked about the army surrounding the Tower of London. Someone obviously threatened her over the phone because she instantly counter backed saying the General would call upon help that not even the Chinese Army could stop before slamming the phone.

"Sir Integra. Um, is that actually possible?"

"Partially. Unfortunately, because this is a internal British matter, those SGC people can't help us. And it would take a week at the most for the General to get the help he would need here, but it would be too late by then. Damn it! They are not only taking my men but trying to take my families honor as well!" she yelled slamming her hands on the desk. She stopped as Walter started to speak. "Yes, I know. Don't get so worked up or stress."

She took a deep breath and let it out a few times.

"Get me Ferguson."

He was currently standing by the entrance to the command A.P.C. as the phone inside was ringing. Several Army troops lined up pointing weapons at him while he had his hands out on either side of him. Lights from the helicopters were pointed at him and the vehicle. Integra hung up seeing as Ferguson wasn't picking up the phone. She was about to yell again when she saw Walter hold up a finger.

"Damn bloody time to pick to be pregnant." she growled. "And I can't ever smoke away my frustration!"

Alucard was having lots of fun as he just walked around blowing heads off. No Freak could even get near or hide from him. If they were hiding behind anything, he just fired the Jackal through it. Pickman, the last of the troops alive, fired off several dozen rounds into a room, and then tossed a grenade before moving on. He was following or going with Alucard, depending on your point of view. With no other back up, who else should he follow he figured in his own mind. The grenade exploded taking out the other enemies and Alucard walked out of the smoke as he reloaded.

"I will not allow, under any circumstances, the Hellsing Organizations mission to be impeded!" Ferguson stated as he took a step forward. "Even if you are British military soldiers!"

A news camera shined a light down on him as he was speaking and waving his arms slightly. He reached into his holster and fired two rounds into the ground and everyone watching that news channel saw what he did.

"Stand down your…." he began saying.

The men started to knell when everyone heard above all the noises going around a strange horn sound and the roar of an engine. The people in the crowd screamed and started running as bright blue lights came at them and once again the Dixie horn was blown. Several men opened fire only to move as the car came at them as the bullets bounced off. The camera turned to look as the car jumped before the line, going at least twenty feet into the air. The soldiers near Ferguson dropped their weapons and scrambled out of the way as the car slammed down and spun around hitting the army A.P.C. and taking a chunk of the track off. It spun around, turning towards everyone as he turned the brights on high as she got out of the car and grabbed the shocked Captain as a bullet impacted on the A.P.C. where he had been. The news caught all of this and watched as several men opened fire as the door closed. Seeing as Peter was trying to ask questions, she gently knocked him out and set him in the back seat as the General pushed buttons.

"I SUGGEST TO ANYONE WHO WANTS TO LIVE, LEAVE!" he shouted through the cars mike. "TTHIS IS YOUR ONLY WARNING!"

Bullets and several explosives hit the car and then the army waited as did the camera crew above for the dust to settle. Integra was watching the whole thing and thought all three were dead. But something told her otherwise, mostly because she remembered him saying the car was a special car, other than being bigger than a normal 1969 Dodge Charger, is also had special features that no other car had. She accounted the jumping factor as one since it did so with no ramp. As the dust settled, the lights were still shining very brightly, and there was a few small missiles that came out of compartments on either side of the doors. Plus a couple short version fifty caliber machine guns that came above the fenders next to the hood. People screamed and ran as the missile fired taking out the Army missile trucks and a few of their A.P.C.'s. When the guns started firing, everyone was running. They fired at anything that moved and could do so in a 180 degree mark. With the Army occupied with running, the two got out and she entered the A.P.C. quickly tossing a high caliber sniper rifle to him which he used to kill the men in the apartment building that, BG's sensors told him about on approach. Right now, he didn't care that the Army men were fighting against them and not knowing what they were doing was wrong. She walked out with her backpack and her large cannon as he was reaching back into the car, grabbing the mike as the guns quit for a moment.

"Come after us if you wish to die. I don't give a fuck right now. The guns have a auto track system as well so come close if you wish. Oh, and if any idiot decides to try and blow up the car and actually succeeds. Everything within a two block radius goes up with it."

"Seriously?" she asked as he hit some switch on his watch that put the car in lockdown mode, but also in defense mode as the panels on the side closed back up.

"The fuel isn't gasoline. Didn't you know that?" he said as they ran in quickly.

"What is it then?"

"Hydrogen."

"Like the bomb?!"

"Well, it is the liquid version, but still dangerous. I may have exaggerated on the block radius a bit. There is more explosives in there. I did forget to take that bomb out of the trunk."

"And you hang out with me more than Walter?"

"If you mean what I think you mean, that is beyond disgusting."

"No, I meant….oh never mind."

"He'll watch our backs. Mostly because he is programmed too."

"Well, I think he is…getting his point across." Walter said.

"Jesus Christ." she muttered as the camera looked over the destruction. "How many people did he just kill?"

They listened to the reports that the news was getting as the camera panned around the area. According to the info, several Army men had been injured. The people in the A.P.C.'s and missile trucks had been able to get out, but not unscathed. Even with all the firepower the car had unleashed at everyone, it had managed to somehow not kill anyone either. As far as everyone could tell, no civilians had been hurt, mostly because many were still running. One Army helicopter fired several rounds from its gun only for the car to suddenly drive sideways and back up into the battle area firing off a few rounds back. The helicopter started smoking and ended up landing on a nearby building, thankfully not exploding. Everyone was staying away from it after that. Especially after more missiles came out of the side again, but didn't fire.

The two looked up from the news screen as police drove into the driveway and started into her house.

"Sir Integra, whatever you order. I, Walter Dolnaise, will protect you." he said holding his gloves close together as he got his wires ready. "Even if it cost me my life."

"That will not happen. We have lost enough people today."

"We're surrend…."

"Hell no!" she said standing quickly. "We will not surrender. Our forces are not totally lost. We still have hope. But we won't resist either."

"Then what is your order?"

"We wait."

Alucard was proud of the feeling he was sensing from two very important people. He had heard everything that the General had said back at the entrance and was especially proud of the fact that the man wasted no time to get the job done even if it mean killing people in his way. He could feel them both more than beyond pissed as they slew everything that got in their way. Nothing had a chance. Even though she was walking around with the large cannon on her back, she was still cutting the enemy up with her sword or using her pistol. The General had dropped the sniper rifle and was cutting everything in his way, not even bothering to use his guns at all. Alucard thought the new addition to his sword was interesting. The chain he had attached to the bottom of the handle to allow him to swing it around and throw it at enemies was something Alucard thought was really cool. More than once he had taken out several Freaks by just swinging it by the chain. Only once did he almost hit her though and since then quit tossing it around when she was nearby.

The two climbed over a pile of former wall and diced another couple of Freaks.

"There was only sixty six men. They must have made more Freaks or something."

"We've been killing our own men turned into ghouls as well."

"Oh right." he said sadly as it hit him. "I forgot that could happen. More caskets to put into the ground. More to mourn."

She shook her head and turned sharply to slice another Freak that jumped at her with a knife that connected with her blade near the hilt. His knife shattered as her blade cut him in half.

"Nice."

"I saw him coming a mile…ah damn." she said as her blade broke near the hilt. "Guess I'm back to this."

"I like the cannon."

"You like mindless destruction."

"What can I say, I'm a guy." he said shrugging. "Seeing explosions is always cool."

"Lame excuse. But I still love you anyway." she said as they continued over the pile to find several of the Freak demons eating on some of their men. "Filthy demons!"

He raised his blade to cover his face as she fired the cannon and caused a massive amount of smoke and debris to come at them.

"See, that was cool."

She ejected the spent shell and put a new one in as they moved on.

"Enjoy it police girl! Feel how the General feels when it is time to battle! Reveal in the massacre!" Alucard said with a laugh as he crossed his arms pointing his guns and firing at two Freaks near him. "What does not kill you makes you stronger. And as long as the General is always there for you, you will only get stronger still. Especially off his powerful blood! Who knows, you may yet even succeed me!"

The two went through quite a bit more, him following her since they were looking for Alucard anyway. She fired the round at point blank range into one guy who caught the round. However, it exploded anyway as the General got behind his blade and covered his head as dust, smoke and debris flew past him and her once again. He laughed before getting up and shaking everything out of his hair.

"Now wasn't that fun?!"

"Yes!" she said with a certain tone. "I want more of these bastards to come out!"

"Enjoy it, but control it Seras. I don't want to become your next opponent." he said grabbing her shoulder.

"I have control." she growled with her fangs showing.

"Are you hungry?"

"No. I think what I am feeling is mostly from you, which feels really good." she said with enjoyment and malice at the same time.

"And that is?" he said with a small smile.

"The joy of battle and untold destruction, mostly of my enemies!"

"Oh, yeah, that's from me." he said squeezing her shoulder.

"This way." she said with a smile that would make Alucard proud.

Alucard felt her feelings and was proud as he killed another enemy behind him.

"Alucard…."

He turned around and walked over to Pickman who was sitting against a metal fence.

"There is a bullet in your stomach."

"No shit." he said coughing up blood. "Please…uh…I want to be human…"

He gasped in pain a moment before speaking.

"For Hellsing…."

He fired his last round in the clip putting Pickman out of his misery. Ejecting the clip he reached in finding his last one, which made him grunt in disapproval but also smile as he realized he'd be fighting head on with his bare hands very soon. He set his hat on Pickmans face before turning to the large building that looked like a church.

"Incognito!" he shouted. "How much longer must I play with your pathetic golems?!"

The top windows lit up and he laughed before walking in.

The other two were running up a hill with trees towards the building Alucard was in when she suddenly stopped. It took him a moment to notice she wasn't beside him.

"What's wrong?"

"Master said I would learn to enjoy this feeling. And I'm getting a lot of it from you!" she growled. "I hate it! I don't want this feeling!"

"Seras!" he said grabbing the end of the barrel as she started lowering it towards his head. "Have you used your power to kill innocents?! This feeling, that you are not only getting from me but from your vampire side, have you used it to kill innocent people or to save lives?!"

"No! I try to save people!" she said as he pushed the cannon away and got in her face. "I'm not a killer!"

"Remember that! Remember that one thought and you won't have lost control! You control it, not the other way around!"

"But it is still killing!"

"Search my feelings! Search deeper!" he exclaimed as he put his forehead to hers. "Why am I feeling this way and why do I do this?!"

"That's why you don't kill indiscriminately." she said as she searched his emotions. "That's how you maintain your control after every battle you've been in."

"Yes!" he said clenching his fist near her face. "Because I know when to stop. Even in the mist of extreme battle, you keep telling yourself that once the enemy is gone or fled, you stop. You don't turn into a monster or on your own people as long as you keep that thought. Killing for the fun of it makes you a monster, doing it to save others, makes you a hero, even if you never get recognized for it."

"But you're enjoying this!" she exclaimed in anger.

"Because it helps! We're saving the pour souls of those turned! Once they are truly dead, they are at peace. And those people who were turned evil and embraced it because they were evil as humans to begin with, once dead, can't harm innocent people or our allies!"

"I understand. I know how to control it now. Oh god, I almost shot you." she said as fear crept into her voice.

"Your training is complete Padawan." he said cupping her cheek a moment before backing up and bowing slightly as he changed his voice. "Here now, shall your training further, become easier, yes."

"What?" she asked totally confused as the barrel hit the ground with a thud. "What is with the weird voice and reverse talking?"

"Star Wars. Yoda." he said shrugging.

"Haven't seen it." she said shaking her head.

"Oh god." he said rubbing his face. "No wonder you have trouble and have conflicting emotions. It's, we'll watch it later and you'll see what I mean. Though I can't think of any character off hand you could represent."

"Who would Alucard be?" she asked putting the barrel back on her shoulder.

"Darth Vader, to a point." he said as they started running again.

"The very name sounds evil."

"He's the villain. Not the head bad guy though."

"Oh, how sweet. To find you both here and talking like real acceptable lovers. It makes me sick. You should be with me and reveal in your true existence. Forget the human you once were. Enjoy the thrill of the hunt of the prey humanity is."

They looked up to find the man from their nightmare dreams that one time.

"You son of a…." the General growled with extreme contempt as he started forward.

"He's mine. This I will enjoy." she growled as he started to move. "Hold this."

"Yes ma'am." he said taking it in his left hand at the tone of her voice. "How long?"

"If it takes more than a minute, then I need harder training." she said walking away with clenched fist.

They both suddenly vanished from his sight. He started looking at his watch when he was slammed into, knocking him, the cannon and his sword different directions. Shaking his head to get rid of the dazed feeling, he looked up to see the blonde man looking down at him.

"I'll kill you and then she will…"

Blondie cried out in sever pain as a large blade impaled him from behind at the same time the General had pulled his gun and fired, only to miss and burn the guys face as his head snapped back. The sword came back out quickly and then sliced through him several dozen times before going up through his groin and out the top of his head. She held the sword over her head as the body turned to dust on the General.

"You used me as a distraction." he said dropping his arm to the ground that had the gun. "Why didn't you say something?"

"No. I didn't." she said lowering the sword. "He managed to knock me aside and during our fight talked about killing you and then having me to himself. I dropped my guard when I shouldn't have and he went after you. I saw your sword and, well…."

"A little warning would have been nice." he said rolling over and shaking the dust off. "Ugh, at least it is ash instead of blood and guts."

"Sorry, heat of the moment thing." she said shrugging as she gave the blade back and got her cannon. "That was less than thirty…."

"That was less than ten! But you let your guard down.." he said following her towards the building.

"You would have done the same if he had been fighting you and talked about me."

"Yeah. I would have." he admitted. "Nice job by the way."

"We need to work better on watching around us while in the heat of the moment."

"That's rather hard to do when…"

"Not sex! How can you even think about that right now?"

"I got a nice view when you stood over me a few moments ago. I prefer the blue instead of the black. Though those really tight white ones really define…"

"Pervert." she said shaking her head as she looked away while crossing her arms. "But it explains why you are not a breast man."

"But you still love me." he said into her ear as they kept running.

"I can't deny that." she said as they continued forward. "Now get your mind out of my underwear and back on the mission."

Two men from the Queen, always the same men that came with messages from the Queen when she couldn't be reached by phone or it was something that had to be reached by person, came to the Hellsing property and was allowed to see Integra. She was still sitting at her desk where the police had left her and Walter.

"We have brought with us a message from her Majesty." one of the men said.

"Go ahead." she said standing.

"These are times that test the heart, Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing. The Royal Family shall not forget the contributions of the Hellsing Organization over this century. Please stand strong in this fierce night and take solace that at sunrise, your Judas shall be punished."

They turned to leave and then orangish haired man turned back a moment.

"Remember that her Majesties prayers are with you."

"Stand strong through this? It seems we've been abandoned."

Alucard went through the place and down into the deeper parts to find what he was looking for, sitting on a wooden device that held a variety of weapons. A couple halberds, a trident, a spear, and a sword.

"Come now, let us begin this, he who is nobody. Incognito!"

Incognito lifted his head and opened his right eye and then his left one just appeared turning bright red.

"Alucard."

Alucard laughed darkly as his opponent got up.

"Control art restriction released to level two. Situation B. Keeping power restriction unlocked until the target has been silenced." he said laughing more as Incognito pulled that Armscore out. His glasses disappeared and the wind began whipping around as his power level increased.

She got tired of waiting seeing as there was no new developments with the news. The police and Army were staying out because the car kept firing a few rounds every time anyone got close, so the news couldn't give anything new. Being tired of the same scene and news, Integra and Walter took a secret passage and got to the helicopter. A few of the police ran up to stop them when their weapons all suddenly fell apart as though they were just sliced into sections.

"I suggest you cease and desist immediately." Walter said as his silver wire floated from his fingers. "Or you may yourselves be next."

They ran away quickly as Integra told him to get in.

"It's been awhile since I flown one this one being as I have been being trained on the others Sir Integra. Forgive me if I am a bit slow."

"Just hurry Walter."

"Yes sir." he said flicking the final switches and making it take off.

Incognito fired and missed only to blow several large holes into his coat as Alucard moved and fired off a couple rounds. One blew a large hole in the column next to him and the other put a large hole that would have killed a normal vampire because there would be nothing left of the heart. How his arm was staying on had to be from power of the dark continent because he had no shoulder to keep the arm on either.

"Yes, shoot more Alucard!"

"Yes! At last, a opponent that is worthy of my power!" Alucard said happily as he ran around the room.

Incognito fired hitting the side of Alucards face. He slightly leaned back from the blow and then moved so quick he vanished as he ran towards him quickly using his vampire speed.

"I just don't like the look in your eye!"

Incognito only laughed as Alucard was now in front of him with the Jackal pointed directly as his large red eye.

"Please try again in your next life!" he yelled as he pulled the trigger.

It put a large hole where his eye was and took a good portion of that side of his head knocking him to the ground. He dropped the gun in the process and groaned as Alucard stood over him.

"Before I kill you I need to know, since we are both serving human masters, who is your Master Incognito?! Give me the name of the one who would make cheap copies of us with their bugs!"

He turned his head and looked at Alucard laughing hard. The room suddenly lit up as lines glowed on the walls like they did on his body earlier. Alucard looked around and then pointed his gun.

"You just don't know when to quit!"

"You've run out of your puny man made bullets, blessed with the power of your puny god." he said as the hole in his head started glowing red as the eye was coming back.

"Clever bastard!"

Blast or lines, he wasn't sure, hit Alucard like a sword cutting through him. Though he didn't fall apart, he was cut clean through several times across the chest and waist area. One going across his wrist holding the empty Jackal. The weight of the gun made his hand fall forward but he didn't loose his grip on the gun much less loose his hand which was barely hanging on.

The two had entered the building and when everything lit up with the strange lines, she lost her ability to locate him as something blocked it. They both went down to the lower sections only to find branching areas that went many directions. Reluctantly, they decided to spilt up and search, seeing as they were both very fast, they could cover ground quickly and find each other quickly as well. The telepathy thing was really cool he mentioned before running off one direction. She guessed at what direction he could be and started off when she smelled a whiff of his blood in the air and when that way instead. As she got closer, she could tell he was totally out of ammo and wasn't surprising with the enemies that were in the area. She had two shells left and one clip for her gun, plus two clips for Alucard in her bag. Running down a small flight of stairs and whipping around a corner, she found him standing before Incognito. Quickly dropping, she opened her bag and pulled out a clip.

"Master!"

"Police girl!" he yelled turning his head to see her as another beam hit him across the chest again. "Run away!"

"Master, I have…" she said holding it out.

"Run away, now!" he shouted.

Anger, hate, and rage ran through her as she felt the need to run and try to help her Master. She could feel he was in trouble and saw the attack, whatever it was, hit him, causing him serious injuries. When she saw a beam of that light coming at her, she knew there was no way she was going to avoid it, much less possibly survive. If Alucard was, as she could best describe the feelings she was getting from him, getting his ass kicked, then she, barely knowing her vampire powers technically, had little chance of survival. Fear and sadness rushed through her as she silently called for help since she was to scared to cry out for it.

The sound of metal hitting stone and the sound of someone grunt in pain startled her from shock. She slowly looked up dropping the clip to find the General's hair in her face as he was kneeling down holding her. The large sword right behind him blocked most of the attack and what little went around the edge caught him and his coat instead. It burned the coat and the metal underneath slightly along with some of his skin. But it failed to go through him and into her.

"General." Incognito growled before laughing. "It is fitting you are here to die with the rest of the pitiful fools who thought they could stop me!"

"Seras, run, you can't help or be here right now."

"But…." she said as Incognito was speaking.

"Trust me. I'd only kill you. Cover your ears, now go!"

As he quickly stood, pulling his sword, as she bolted quickly in tears while covering her ears. A beam of that light went for her but it suddenly cancelled out half way there. She kept running and after a couple dozen feet or so, ran into a wall that wasn't there before. It wasn't very intense and excruciating pain, but it made her cry out as something was hitting her that she couldn't see or feel a few moments later.

"Drac, that isn't vampire you are fighting, but a fucking demon vampire straight from hell!" the General yelled as he pointed his sword.

"I shall be the vessel that brings forth Set into this world. You fools along with everything and everyone shall be destroyed…."

Suddenly the General wasn't there anymore. But they noticed him rather quickly seconds later, however, as six of the blades were spinning in the air around Incognito while he was still holding the seventh blade which was the main double sided blade. The blades weren't being held in the air by any sort of power, since the General had none to begin with. But by the shear fact he was moving so fast going from blade to blade, switching one for the other that they didn't have a chance to hit the ground. As he would grab one, he hit Incognito in some way that put the blade through him as he moved onto the next weapon. Being injured as he was, Alucard only could really see that there was six weapons spinning and changing from what they were before as he did this several dozen times.

Pain like no other hit Alucard and Incognito as, while running and swinging, he recited a set of words that were suppose to be a last resort attack only, plus words adding to the effect. Take the enemy with you was the sort of thing he was going for but he wasn't even sure if it would work. Alucard fell to his knees as the words affected him and then it all stopped. Six blades were stabbed to the hilts in different areas of Incognito's trunk and one up through his crotch area. The General came down from a jump and stabbed the large knife blade into the top of Incognito's head with a yell. He let go and stumbled away hitting the wall as Alucard slowly rose back to his feet. Incognito roared in pain as light burst forth from the areas the blades had cut him and from the areas where the blades were currently at, spilling his power out.

Alucard thought it was finally over, and very disappointed that the General had been the one to finish the job, but instead he felt Incognito's power rise suddenly. The General must have saw this or possibly felt it as he pulled his two guns. However, he never got the chance to fire as a blinding light came forth from Incognito and all the blades blasted out of his body shattering like glass. Some blast of evil, or what Alucard figured was actually part of the side effect of the attack that the General did with the words, slammed against him. It could have also been a evil power from the dark continent as well, he wasn't sure. Whatever it was, one, the other, or a combination of both, the General was blown back and thrown through the concrete wall knocking Seras's bag away and bouncing the clip off a wall and into the room near Alucard. Normally, Alucard would have seen the General get up from something like that, since Seras had thrown him through a couple walls during training. This time, he saw a major difference. The General looked like he had been put through a grinder, literally. He was bleeding heavily and all his clothes including his coat were practically shredded. His guns had been blown away, shattering into pieces as well. The shredding part didn't really bother Alucard, but the fact that the General now looked like he was really, really old made him cringe. Whatever those words were he used, he used his life force as part of the attack, and it failed. Blood was pooling out of him quickly and it was evident he was already dead and had been before he hit the wall.

Though he was heavily injured and bleeding out whatever dark energy was keeping him alive, Incognito still laughed and mocked the General's attempt.

Outside, the news reported that the Queen and Royal family were completely safe and that from other areas, since the strange Dodge Charger was keeping them from entering the front, the Army and police forces were now entering the Tower of London to quell the forces inside. However, all they found was mass dead bodies and piles of ash.

He was still laughing when he looked at Alucard.

"This Tower cries out in hunger to consume your blood. Yours, along with his and your pathetic fledgling will make for a great sacrifice to Set!"

"This Tower is a old and decrepit ruin. It suits you perfectly as your place of death!" Alucard yelled as he summoned the clip nearby to his hand. "I'll send you back to the deepest pits of hell! While you are there, you can lick the devils ass, Incognito!"

It quickly came up and he slammed it into the Jackal as Incognito was causing more of the strange waving light beams to appear. Five rounds out of the six round magazine was all it took to take Incognito's head off. He kept the gun pointed as he watched for the body to fall. After several seconds, the lighted lines on the wall began to flicker and then faded away. Suddenly they appeared on Incognito's injured body. Some of the lines on his body included a section on the back of his head along with the left side of his face. It turned to Alucard, looking at him along with the bullets he fired suspended in the middle of his head. A smile appeared as the large red eye showed up and the bullets in his head turned. The Jackal took a lot of the brunt almost being destroyed as the bullets were thrown back at him, taking large sections out of the right side of his body, which was already injured badly from the light beam attacks earlier and the General's words. Blood splattered the walls behind him as the bullets bounced off the walls.

"How does it feel Alucard, to have a taste of your own blessed silver bullets?" Incognito asked as his head came back.

Alucard slowly fell, or more like melted to the floor with what was left of his head in the middle. Seras felt it as she came crawling on her hands and knees around the corner to also find the General against the wall dead in a massive puddle of his own blood.

"General…" she muttered crawling up slowly and then seeing Alucard. "Master!"

Walter was flying with no problems as the Tower of London came into view. A couple Army helicopters came flying up beside them quickly as they continued.

"Attention, Hellsing Organization helicopter, you will turn around immediate…"

Walter had to pull the helicopter up as the Army one on his left, which had been talking suddenly started smoking from having the tail end blown off by some missile.

"Walter?"

"It wasn't me Sir Integra."

She crawled over to Alucard seeing Incognito had walked off.

"Master.."

"Police girl. I am your master. You should have listened to me, or at least the General."

"I….."

"Seras…" he said as his eyes closed.

"No, Master…."

She grabbed his head as it started to sink into the pool of blood that had been his body. Not even thinking, she licked some of the blood off his face and then jerked but kept hold of his head when a large halberd axe head stuck into the ground near her.

"Even if you drink every drop of his blood, you will never become powerful enough to become a true Nosferatu. You will die here, alone. A fitting place for you three insolent fools." he said laughing before disappearing as she called him a bastard.

The other helicopter started to fire on the Hellsing chopper thinking it had attacked them. Walter quickly managed to avoid getting them and their ride riddled with bullets as he fired off one of the sidewinders. It sent the other helicopter to the ground as a burning wreck. The third Army helicopter moved in and firing hitting their side and tail before it took several rounds from a fifty caliber before sending it crashing like the other. Walter still had control, for the moment, but hydraulics were failing quickly, fuel was depleting from a hole in the tank and oil pressure was going down fast.

"Walter, what are you doing?" she asked as he put it into hover mode.

"I must protect you, even if it cost my own life Sir Integra." he said pulling his wires.

"Wait, what are you…"

The door suddenly was blown away as his wires cut it off, wrapping around her quickly as she was pulled out by the air pressure. Not being able to move, she only cried out his name as she jerked in midair and was slowly lowered to the ground just inside the Tower area. Other than getting the air knocked out of her when she hit the grass, she was okay. The wires slipped away and she cried out his name again as she watched as a small explosion happened and the helicopter start spinning out of control crashing further into the Tower area. She slowly sat up and looked over seeing several police troops and Army officers headed her way.

"Great, I doubt telling them I'm preg…." she began as the men suddenly stopped and then ran away quickly as bullets riddled the ground near them.

She cried out and jerked back as bright blue lights came at her and then turned away only to seconds later see a big 01 a foot from her face. She lowered her arm as the car moved forward and the door opened.

"Get in Sir Integra. We have little time and I haven't much ammo left."

"What?" she said seeing no one in the passenger or driver seat.

"Get in. Or would you like to be killed by the enemies that may still be around. I can't understand what it might feel like, since I have no real feelings, but from what I hear, being eaten alive isn't fun."

"What are you?" she asked getting in and seeing an unconscious Ferguson in the back seat.

"Captain Ferguson is perfectly fine Sir Integra. I am called the Big General, or BG for short. I was created by the General and Seras. My orders are to protect you if they are not around." BG said as he turned and blasted the wall nearby with a missile. "Hang on to something if you would please."

"What, wait…." she said grabbing the seatbelt and quickly putting it on as they jumped out onto the street and sped away quickly.

Incognito was really pissed. He was losing energy fast because of the attack, not only by Alucard, but by the General. Mostly he was pissed that he couldn't find Integra. He had felt her earlier and knew she was nearby, but now she was gone, and he wasn't sure how. Seeing as what he needed was a virgin to call for Set, he found one nearby in one of the crowds, scaring many people away before bringing her back to the chapel area inside the Tower of London. Fear overtook the poor young woman as she was placed in the middle of the circle in the room. Seeing him take four pike weapons out, she passed out soiling herself in the process. He stuck one in each side of the dress on her arms and one on either side of the dress at the hem near her knees, keeping her legs apart. It took some time, more than he wished it had, but he didn't worry because he was sure all his opponents were finished. He walked up to a window nearby and turned around gathering what power he could as he started chanting away the summon needed to call forth Set. Occasionally, during the chant, he had to groan in pain as more of his energy left his body, making it more difficult to finish the job. Had he had Integra, the blood he was about to get would have been more powerful, but using a virgin would do the job, just not as great as she would have been considering her blood line even though she wasn't a virgin anymore.

Several blocks away, hiding in the dark near a communications/cell phone tower, was BG and Integra.

"What are we doing here?"

"Waiting for further orders." BG said.

"Which don't come from me?"

"Normally they would, seeing as you are one of the General's wives." BG said as Integra's eyebrow raised. She didn't say anything, figuring it was probably a programming issue. "However, my programming states that you are to be taken care of and protected if you are in trouble. Seeing as the British Army and the police wish your capture, I cannot do anything that will possibly cause you harm. Therefore, I cannot accept any orders at this time."

"Damn." she muttered looking out the dark window. "Can you tell me anything about what is happening at the inside of the Tower?"

"All the Hellsing troops have been killed. From the Generals and Seras's last report, before heading for Alucard's position, they had eliminated the rest of the Freaks and ghouls. Since I cannot detect undead creatures but only movement, I am unable to confirm this data. The British Army and police had entered from other areas I could not cover at the time they had entered a building where they said Alucard had went."

"And what of Walter? Do you know anything?"

"He managed to escape the helicopter before it crashed. However, I was unable to rescue him because of his location, nor do I know his condition after the crash."

"You were with me."

"Affirmative."

"Can we contact the General at all?"

"Unfortunately I cannot locate his wrist watch beacon nor his cell phone anymore. I have linked up and hacked into the communication tower near us, which has given me a considerable boost of range, including network searching by orbital satellite means. However, I still cannot locate his watch nor cell phone signal."

"Maybe the batteries are dead." she muttered.

"Even if they were, I would still be able to get a partial trace at least from the watch. I have however located Seras's Victoria's cell phone signal."

"Huh?"

"It is currently in the Tower of London, somewhere underground."

"Is it possible to contact her?"

"Because of the upgrade she and the General did on their phones to enable contact with me, yes."

"Then call her. Maybe we can finally get some answers."

"Dialing now."

"If it wasn't for the fact I deal with undead creatures, the fact a car is talking to me would seem crazy." she muttered looking out the window as she crossed her arms and legs.

"I find the fact that Seras Victoria is actually alive despite my sensors saying otherwise very confusing myself. My definition of life, medically speaking, says she should be dead. Along with Alucard. If it wasn't for the complex computing of my program to accept the facts based on everything concerning the Hellsing Organization, I am quite sure my system would have a total meltdown and crash permanently from the illogical notion behind what the Hellsing Organization does and is."

She only grunted as the phone kept dialing.

Seras was lying in the blood of her Master, feeling very tired and weak. At least she was lying in it at one point. The blood had spread out and from the taste in her mouth, she was sure she had drank some at one point to try and rejuvenate herself. It didn't seem to be working as well as she thought it might and chalked it up to the fact Master was dead, so his blood lost its power. A beeping noise made her sit up and look around as it irritated her. Finally, she realized what the noise was because of the familiar tone. She managed to get to her feet and walked over sitting near the General's body as she pulled her cell phone from the small pouch on the side of the ammo bag. The General had talked her into putting a pouch there for the phone in case of an emergency or something. He kept his with him at all times even in battle. She thought it was stupid thinking it would get damaged, but did it anyway and part of her wondered who was even calling and swore if it was a telemarketer, she was going to find out where they were, and kill them.

"Hello." she muttered weakly.

"Miss Victoria? This is Sir Integra. What is going on?" she demanded.

"Sir?" she asked confused.

"Yes, it is me. Forget about how and why I am calling. Now report."

"Um…the General and I are stuck down stairs in a sub level of the Tower. He tried to help Master fight the demon Incognito, but they both failed." she said as tears formed in her eyes. "I tried to run as they told me to, but couldn't get out."

"The General is dead?" she asked with fear in her voice.

"Yeah. Whatever happened, he hasn't came back yet. I think he will, but given how he looks, I don't know. Yes, his head is still in place." she said feeling her hand across the General's bloodied face.

Other than the fact his clothes and coat were pretty much totally destroyed, he didn't look old anymore and had stopped bleeding at some point. However, he had lost most of it because he was still sitting in a very large pool of it as she was. He was red from head to toe in his own blood. As she touched his face, he fell over into her lap getting more blood on her chest and skirt. She looked at the blood on her hands and, more or less unconsciously, started to lick it off.

"From everything he has told me about Immortals, they can't die unless they loose their heads. What about Alucard? Where is he? And what do you mean by he lost?"

"Incognito threw Masters bullets back at him. His body melted shortly after into a large pool of blood. He….told me I should have run away and then closed his eye. There is nothing left but a large blood stain where he had been." she said barely noticing she was running her hands over his face and then licking her fingers.

Integra grunted over the phone and then laughed.

"That demon is a fool to think he has won. Hold your phone out towards where he was Miss Victoria."

She did so wondering what was going to happen as she kept licking the blood off her fingers.

"Situation A. Unlock limited release control to level one. Activate the Cromwell Initiative. Your Master, Integra Hellsing commands it!"

Incognito had finally finished speaking the words he needed and then walked over to straddle the waist of the young girl. He tilted her head to the side to feast on her virgin blood when she woke up and screamed in his face. She had no power, but fear made her rip her dress getting free enough she started punching his face. He back handed her and then bit into her neck enough to make the blood flow out, causing the young girl to pass out again. Using his power, the blood flowed out of her neck and into his mouth. He roared saying something as he continued the chant and drink.

Set had been called and was free, however, he wasn't doing much other than hanging around the Tower, killing people in his way and destroying vehicles. He was summoned and the one who summoned him to join with him to cause untold and unimaginative destruction upon the world was currently too injured to join with, plus the added fact he had not finished the chant to allow them to both join. Most of the Tower of London Monument was being destroyed as the gigantic white energy snake moved around and just outside the Tower. It wanted to go forward and destroy the city, but something kept it in that area, a power it could not break free from.

Seras felt a surge of power not only in her, but around her. She at first thought it was the General coming back to life, but he was still dead. Or so she thought until she did feel a pulse under all the blood on his neck. It was very slow and beating so quietly, she couldn't hear it like normal. When all the blood on her and him, plus blood started coming in through the walls and anything else it could going to one point, she realized what was happening.

"Limited release approval is confirmed! Releasing control art restriction system to level one! The Cromwell Initiative is now in effect."

"Master…" she said dropping the phone accidentally, breaking it. "Ah, not again."

The sky outside turned red as blood and the moon shined even more brightly under it. Bells across the London area rang as a six eyed dog raced through the town hitting them one at a time. An extremely large blood red pentagram appeared on the city, showing up even in the water. So big and bright it could be seen from space. The SGC did read the power spike in the area and even were watching as the unknown to them, demon Set was causing damage to that one area. They even saw the large pentagram to which Daniel instantly said they could do nothing but watch and pray for the best outcome for humanities sake.

Up on top of the Tower area, Incognito was standing there laughing as he watched Set cause mass destruction. It wasn't until he had to stop for a moment of pain that flashed through him releasing more energy that he noticed that Set hadn't been very far from the Tower area. It was then that he figured out what the General had done as Set turned around and went past him, drawing in the energy his body was releasing. It wasn't only an attack to try and kill him, but an attachment enchantment as well. The General knew what Incognito was planning to do, or had a good idea of what it was. Though the swords did hurt, they were part of a blinding agent as it were. One blessed sword could do it, but seven were used when he recited words that the world was suppose to have forgotten centuries ago. Set was bound to him because of the energy he was releasing, which was also very slowly killing him, making it so that Set could only go so far from him before having to turn around. Just like a dog on a leash. It pissed him off greatly that he didn't devour the General personally like a starving man put before a buffet. Had he ate the General or at least fully killed him, the enchantment wouldn't have any effect as it did now. He quickly dismissed the idea of going back and continued to get ready to join with Set as planned, then they would destroy the world. Once joined, the enchantment would dispel.

Alucard was standing before her with black hair down past his waist. He was wearing a blood red outfit that was close to his body and had a lot of buttons holding straps across his chest. She knew it was him, but he didn't look like the Alucard they were used to seeing. His power was much greater and he seemed more evil looking than before.

"Master….."

He shook his head lightly then laughed.

"Another beautiful moonlit night." he said laughing as he faded away into the wall.

She looked down seeing no blood on herself or in her clothes, much less on the General or his clothes either. She couldn't even smell blood anywhere, but she did still taste it in her mouth.

"Why did he shake his head?" she muttered in confusion a moment later.

Incognito was looking over the city and had become one with Set when the moonlight behind him suddenly went away. He turned to see Alucard holding the moon, or so it looked, when all he really did was use his power to cast its light away.

"Oh, its you." he said seeing Alucard.

"I have feasted on the untold rivers of blood that have soaked into this cursed fortress. The bloody tower has revived me! Not only that, but the blood of an Immortal has made me much stronger!" he said laughing evilly. "Now, which of my many techniques shall I use to send you to a purgatory of eternal pain and torment?!"

"Set, god of chaos who dwells within me, consume this vampire in the flames of hell!"

His body erupted and turned into Set as lightening struck throughout the sky. As Set flew up into the sky and started to come back down on him, Alucard changed into a black mass of eyes with several branches becoming dogs. Their fighting erupted into a massive battle causing more damage to the Tower and the area within it as they flew up fighting in the air. Every attack Set used was blocked and easily countered. Only a minute or so after rushing into the clouds fighting back and forth, they both came down slamming through the many floors.

Seras, feeling a lot better after Alucard's return and him leaving her, picked the General up and got out of there quickly. She easily kicked down the wall and then ran out of the building, getting out a good minute before the two came flying down and crashing through the floors. Feeling a lot more stronger than before and her abilities feeling much more easier to control than before, she sniffed the air and located what she was looking for. Jumping the wall with ease, leaving Alucard to fight alone, she scared several people including the police as she landed outside in the street causing the pavement to buckle. Before the police could do or say anything, she had already ran off quickly following her nose before they could get a good glimpse of her face.

Down inside the Tower, they had landed apart from one another just staring. A very large and old forgotten silver cross made from the Lancaster church stood inside a large area that was on fire.

"It seems that you are more than just a simple braggart. But you cannot defeat me, for I am empowered by a most ancient god!" Incognito yelled as he called forth powers to create a Armscore gun from his right arm, literally. "I welcome eternal pain!"

"You have such disgusting taste! Is pain truly your pleasure? Then I will grant your wish!" he said laughing. "I will send you to a world where all you will know is pain! But don't let my fun end too quickly! It has just started! Show me your true power! Come on! Hurry!"

Incognito laughed as the gun finally came out of his arm as he ripped it out.

"The world began before the vampire Alucard existed, it would do the world good to see you die before it ends!" he said literally barfing up some greenish goon into the back of the guns chambers. It changed turning into bullets for the gun as he pointed it. "Now, disappear forever, Alucard!"

He fired round after round as he ran forward. Alucard dodged and weaved his way through all the shots with ease and moved past him knocking him across the back of the head. Incognito's head was nearly took off as he slammed face first into the ground and skidded into a pile of rubble. Alucard, holding what was left of the Jackal and it's last bullet, turned around. The silver cross behind him had tilted to the side melting under the intense heat and now from the power Alucard was releasing out of his head. Instead of black hair, it was a intense white light of pure power.

"Are you really thinking about shooting me with a broken gun?" Incognito asked laughing as he body flashed the lines across it and the injuries to his head and face healed.

His laughing stopped as he watched silver melt off the cross and over the bullet down off the gun. Though the gun was pretty much destroyed, the clip still was intact holding the bullet it place with the rest of the parts needed to keep it in place before firing. And the firing mechanisms still worked along with the hammer he had cocked back.

"No! It is impossible! It can't be!"

Alucard laughed loudly as he pulled the trigger. The bullet, enhanced with his power and the melting silver, sent a long pole of blessed silver and his power laced within through Incognito's chest and into the wall behind him. Blood burst out of the wound and out of his mouth as he cried out in extreme pain.

"What are you?" he asked with less than a whisper as all his power faded away quickly, not only from the injury, but from all his injuries that came back as Set was sent back to hell.

While still alive, and laughing darkly and evilly as he did so, he removed the silver spike and then shoved it up Incognito's ass forcing it out his mouth. Needless to say, he died horribly from the pain and was still alive for a few moments after being impaled. Once he was dead, Alucard changed back to normal, took his broken gun and left, feeling satisfied with the battle.

Integra could only watch the battle somewhat as they fought and then came down into the top of the building. Camera shots from other buildings nearby along with what shots BG was about to get from hacking those said cameras gave her a idea of what was happening. She tried not to look surprised as Seras and the General suddenly were outside the front of the car. The driver door opened and she set the General in the back before taking the drivers seat.

"Miss Victoria…."

"We must leave the area Sir Integra. It is not safe for any of us at the moment."

"I agree. Alucard will deal with this problem. Walter is being taken to the hospital from what BG found out."

"We can get him later then since he will be safe." she said as they drove off very quickly.

"This is not the way to the Hellsing Mansion."

"Sorry Sir Integra." she said punching in a code on a the key pad that showed up on the screen. "I hope I remembered those numbers he said right."

"Where are we going?"

"Someplace safe, according to the General's plan of action. If something were to happen that involved trouble with the authorities, we are to proceed to a location outside London and wait till it was safe to return or were found. I have no idea where we are going other than following the arrow on the map."

Integra looked at the map that showed the area there were in and an arrow starting to continue forward.

"I want you to turn this car around…."

"She cannot comply with that order Sir Integra. If she attempts to deviate off the course specified, I am to take over and continue. I suggest, as the human saying says, sit back and enjoy the ride. It will take us a couple of hours, depending on traffic and if we are noticed to get to our destination. Once there, the General should hopefully be awake. His vital signs are not good though. If not, and we are found, I will let you be taken by the authorities if you still wish it. However, at present, I cannot guarantee that they would have yours and the babies health in mind at the same time."

"I don't believe this." she muttered sitting back.

Alucard went looking for them and found they were headed away from the Hellsing property very quickly. He had also heard plus looked into her mind to find out what was going on. Seeing as he saw the General's plan, since the poor man was still completely out and his mental shields were totally non-existent, he approved of the course of action and went back to his room in the mansion to wait for the time being. He felt great, filled with power and extreme envy at his former fledgling because she got to drink blood that had more power than virgin blood. It irked him considerably, but also made him very proud that she had something he didn't. And he wasn't thinking about sex.

Seras and the other two were rather surprised they weren't followed or their location known by anyone at present as they drove down into a car garage, it still being dark out. Seras sat back as BG took over and parked in a dark spot.

"I know where we are."

"You do? Please elaborate for me then?" Integra asked.

"This is the place the General took me the first time we met. Before he came to see you. This is that apartment building." she said as they all got out and Seras lifted the still totally unconscious General unto her shoulders.

"I have alerted the owner of this establishment that we have arrived. He should be coming down the elevator soon." BG said.

"Why?" Seras asked. "We're wanted…"

"This place is a safe haven when the General is looking to hide for awhile. Though he has invested in this place heavily, he has done so under a different name and is not the owner."

The elevator opened and a man in a white suit with white hair despite the fact he looked no older than thirty, walked out and slowly over to them. He had a large gold cross sewn into the right side of the jacket with a red plus sign on the left side. Around his neck was a stethoscope and in his right pocket was a KJV bible.

"I was told the General and some friends were here, but I don't see him. Where is he?" he asked bowing to them all a moment before looking around. "Oh my, is that man still alive?"

"Yes. But the General's heart is barely beating." she said setting him down on the ground gently.

"It is the General! But that's impossible!" he said kneeling down and running his hands over his neck and chest area. "What has happened to him?!"

"Is something wrong?" Integra asked.

"I've known this man for over a hundred years." he said listening with the scope. "Was he and the rest of you involved with that Tower of London incident?"

"Yes." Integra said. "I am Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing."

"Leader of the Hellsing Organization. I know who you are and what you people do. I thank you for that as well. Though I have never seen any of you, other than the lady here, I have kept up to date on events around this area and such." he said as he continued to look over the General. "What could he have done…."

"You seem very surprised to see him in this condition? Can you explain why that is? I suspect that you are also an Immortal as well like him." Ferguson said. "Surely he has been through much worse. He's told me and the troops…."

He stopped as the three realized that there was no one left anymore. All the Hellsing troops were gone.

"He tells a lot of people his stories. Some refuse to believe them, others accept it. A lot of the people in this place believe it and look forward to seeing him tell them more of his fascinating tales. But yes, I am an Immortal. He found me many just over a hundred years ago. I was killed while trying to preach to a group of villagers in Africa. It is sad that the same problems are still happening to day. And the attacks on Christians is only getting worse."

"You are a priest then?" Integra asked.

"Yes and no. Just a humble pastor which I have been since my father taught me and since my first and only death. I have been staying on holy ground ever since then, taking care of the infirm, sick or dying as I was taught by my father and his father and father before him." he said putting his scope back around his neck.

"Impressive."

"This apartment building was built on holy ground with the Generals help. For many, many years I have been and continue to help people in need." he said standing up. "Please, come this way."

They all entered the elevator with Seras carrying the General in on her back.

"The first four floors are for all the people living here that are basically, slowly dying. Most of them are elderly people who have no families or have been abandoned by their families or put in here because they can't watch them anymore. There is one hundred rooms total with the top floor restricted to my room, the General's room and several open for special people he brings every so often who need a place to stay for a short time. People live here for free because of his contributions. I have held ownership of this place since it was built even before the war. It is to keep him from getting found in case he has to hide out, like now. If anyone comes, I shall say as I always do, he is not here. Which is rare. I doubt anyone will find him or any of you though." he said as they got off on the fifth floor and when to his room.

She laid the General down on the bed as the pastor was checking him over again and shaking his head.

"What was he fighting?"

"A vampire demon who managed to summon another demon called Set." Integra said. "Alucard defeated him in the end."

"Fighting a demon. Either the General did something extremely foolish or a terrible demonic curse of some sort has been placed on him. This is not good."

"What is wrong with him?" Seras asked.

"I know you are a vampire dear lady. Can you not sense the difference between him and me?"

She leaned in and sniffed his neck and his chest and then sat back gasping.

"Oh no!"

"Miss Victoria?" Integra asked.

"I don't understand. How…" she said confused.

"I do not have the answers either young miss. He has lost his Immortality."

"He told me to run because he was going to use some sort of old Druid enchantment that would kill me if I heard it. Alucard was effected too, but it didn't kill him. I didn't make it away and ended up feeling like I was on fire. I barely remember crawling back to them and finding him dead looking like he does now." she said holding her arms close to her body.

"Druid magic of old, as it was called then. They were in fact holy words. He told me a bit about some of it. A very old occult that dedicated themselves to ridding the world of evil even at the cost of their own lives. Sort of like exorcism. He must have used an attack that used his own life force. How foolish he was. It cost him his Immortality."

"The General is human now?" Integra asked. "I mean mortal."

"Yes." the man said.

"This is not good. He was my best man left." Integra said. "Miss Victoria, what are you doing?"

Seras was sniffing the General and then grabbed either side of his head as she closed her eyes. It only lasted a moment and then she backed off.

"He is mortal. But he doesn't know it because he is in a deep coma. I tried to talk to him, but I don't think he knew I was there. What's more, he remembers everything that happened."

"That is good. I would hate if he lost his memory. But that doesn't explain why you were hovering over him like he was fresh prey."

"His blood is very different now and the smell is intoxicating. He smells a lot like you did before you changed. Despite all our time together, I'm pretty sure with the way his blood smells, he is a virgin."

"That's impossible." Integra stated. "You two have…and even I…"

"I suggest we leave him here to rest and let his body recover for now. I can get each of you rooms of your own and will cater to your needs the best I can. I am unsure of how to help you dear lady. The blood bank doesn't come here very often unless one of the people here becomes anemic."

"I always got what I needed off him. I am fine however and have felt better than normal as of late. I think I will be fine for now. I'll stay and watch him and let you know if he wakes." Seras said.

"That must mean that you two are lovers. Can't say I am surprised since he told me about his former vampire wife. I do not really approve given what I do, but I cannot judge lest I also be judged myself. Then again, he has spoke of other non human creatures that are considered evil and yet aren't, such as you, so your relationship isn't bad. I will leave you to him and getting him into better clothes while I take care of you two. I can get anything you might need." the pastor said taking them out.

Integra wasn't happy with the fact she had no control over anything, but the fact that the pastor, Solomon as he told them about an hour later after realizing he had yet to introduce himself, was a lot like Walter in many ways, helped calm her nerves. He was able to find information about Walter that stated the man was still in the hospital and doing rather well. He was being watched by police outside the room and the current outlook on his condition was he was going to be able to walk out in several days. In about a month he would be back to normal. Part of Integra was glad for the fact she didn't have a lot of paperwork or other things to do at the moment. Another part was sad and angry because she couldn't do anything at the moment either. So she basically was relaxing in the room or doing exercises in the gym, swimming in the indoor pool or relaxing in the Jacuzzi. Peter did the same sort of things, but not at the same time. Even though they did mourn for the loss of the troops, they would deal with funeral arrangements later when back at the manor.

Seras stayed in the room with the still unconscious General even after three days. Solomon came in and checked on him, setting up an IV drip that would help his body get back the things needed since he wasn't awake and eating. She stayed in the room sleeping with him and did little else waiting for him to hopefully wake soon. Even talking to him out loud or in his mind to help him try to wake. She didn't really like it much, but had little choice in the matter when Solomon was able to get several bags of transfusion blood for her. She drank them all soon after he left and felt a much greater amount of strength than before, though the taste was different. After cleaning her mouth out, she came back and fell asleep next to him.

Day four…

After being told that Walter was going to be released to the police the next day, Integra had Alucard go get him and bring him to their location that night. Seeing as he had little else to do and the fact they were pretty far away and across the bridge near the water, he drank several bags and then grabbed Walter from the hospital when no one noticed and dropped in that night as Integra was drinking tea with her dinner while reading some book.

"Hello Master."

"Alucard. I see you are doing well."

"Very well." he said smiling. "I had a lot of fun. It is unfortunate that we don't have enemies like that as often."

"If we did, I doubt I'd be around along with most of England."

"True. That is a downside that I have to admit I would not like."

"Really?"

"If we did have that many enemies often, I would have my fun, but if you die and the General did as well, now that he also is human, sadly, I would be released from my servitude and after what I am sure would be years of fun and killing without discrimination, I would have little to look forward to afterward. As much as I do hate being a servant, there are days where I do enjoy it as well."

"How so?"

"Aggravating you and getting on your nerves makes me laugh. Not to mention, fighting for a cause is somewhat better than just killing and killing with no chains to stop me is rather redundant. Even if I was free and took out every enemy and killed everyone on this planet, then I would have nothing to look forward to anymore much less anyone to have fun with either. As pathetic as the Freaks and other evils we occasionally fight are, they are better than taking over the world and having no challenges at all. Plus, even with all my powers, I am quite sure I could not survive nor outrace a nuclear explosion."

"You outlook is very interesting and disturbing at the same time Alucard. Where is Walter?"

"Sleeping in the room next to yours. He has yet to know he has even been moved. Is there any other orders Master?"

"Has there been any Freak attacks since the Tower incident?"

"None that I have heard, seen or noticed. It seems that the evil creatures in the area have went into hiding or ran away. I did let my true abilities and power show for quite awhile there. Everyone felt it. I could feel and still do feel fear from many people that felt my dark power that day."

"Hmm. So that explains the reason the news has been quiet lately. Other than normal crimes. I have noticed that we aren't being searched for anymore."

"The Queen sent those two men to the manor and told the police to leave. Other than the servants, kitchen staff and doctors, the place is very quiet. Like a tomb. A letter was left on your desk from her Majesty in case you returned." he said pulling it from his pocket.

"Hmm. It seems that the Round Table traitor has been dealt with and we have been pardoned of all crimes. We can go back at any time and she wants to talk to me as soon as possible." she said reading it. "I shall wait until I return. This place is a safe haven that I would rather not have exposed to danger. It isn't home, but I must admit, I haven't felt so relaxed in a long time. Pastor Solomon is a very nice man and treated me much like Walter does."

"You should offer him a job then."

"I tried. He has never killed and refuses to. Which is why he stays on holy ground to ensure he stays out of fighting. He doesn't even know how to fight or ever used a gun, much less lost his virginity either. I admire and respect what he does and his decision to stay with the people in need here."

"Do you wish to return home now Master?"

"Perhaps tomorrow. I am tired and we are still waiting on the General."

"He did wake up only to go back to sleep minutes later."

"Does he know his condition?"

"He is unaware of even where he is much less that Seras is with him. His mind is, in a fog if you will."

"Not police girl hmm?"

"Seras has become a true vampire Master. She drank of my blood before you gave me full authority to use all my powers. She will become a very power vampire I am proud to say. Unfortunately, her humanity is still there and her stupidity as well." he said crossing his arms.

"I for one am glad she maintains her humanity Alucard. Though I am surprised she is free. But I doubt I will have to worry about sealing her. Why do you call her stupid?"

"She doesn't even know she has her freedom. She still thinks she's my fledgling."

"And you are not going to tell her?"

"No." he said laughing. "The General should notice though and if he does, he will tell her."

"Hmm. As much as I know you want her to become a very powerful vampire and loose her morals and humanity, I would rather not have to deal her because she turned into a monster like you are. Keep a watch on her and make sure she doesn't let the darkness in her take her over. Understand?"

"Yes Master." he said bowing slightly, but obviously not content with the idea, even though he had no choice but to follow the order anyway.

"Good night Alucard."

He fazed out through the wall and went back to his room in the manor. She went in checking on Walter and when he woke up, they talked for awhile. She gave him an update on their situation and said they would return home tomorrow leaving Seras and the General behind for now. He was happy to hear she was fine and was looking forward to serving her once again. They had a lot of work to do and seeing as Peter was the only officer they had at the moment, they were in trouble. On the bright side, Alucard had reported that construction outside was continuing and with less interruptions and no police or Army around, they were very close to be done with it all along with the areas inside they were allowed to work on.

The next morning he awoke and sat up noticing he was wearing jogging pants only with a IV bag in either arm. She had been sleeping in one of his shirts and her blue panties curled up next to him. He looked at the near empty bags and disconnected the tubes as he entered the bathroom to relieve himself while wondering why he felt weaker than usually and why he was really tired. Being in a fog as it were, he didn't even think about the IV thing that shouldn't have been there. The hunger wasn't a surprise though. As he was showering, he noticed his arm was bleeding still from where he yanked the IV tube out. He sat down slowly as he watched blood slowly bleed out under the hot water as his new situation kicked in. And then the IV thing came to mind making it sink in deeper.

"I am in big trouble."

"Yeah, I'd say so." a sad voice said.

"Seras…" he said turning to look out the glass panels to see her sitting on the toilet facing him. "You at least look good."

"I feel good actually, really great. Physically anyway." she said sadly as tears began flowing. "But emotionally, I am crushed. You've lost your Immortality. I'm afraid of loosing you."

"I can't fight anymore." he said as he noticed his arm wasn't bleeding. "I don't know what to do with my life now. I can't…."

"Better get out while you can before you catch a cold." she said several minutes later breaking the silence. "Or turn into a prune."

He could tell she was aroused by the sight of him standing there after drying off and looking into the mirror totally naked. Even though he was also turned on by the sight of her sitting there practically naked, they were both not in the mood mentally. After putting a fresh pair of jogging pants on, they were both now sitting on the bed together holding each other. Her head was on his chest and he felt tears from her as he also silently cried.

"What are we going to do? I won't deny the fact I will miss drinking from you, but I'm afraid of hurting you…." she said. "If I suddenly forget….."

"Wait a minute. Look at me." he said grabbing her face.

"What's wrong?"

"Your eyes have drastically changed."

"How so?"

"They are a much darker red than before. Do you feel a lot more powerful than before?"

"Yeah. I'm not sure why though." she said confused. "I didn't make it away from there when you told me to run. I ran into a wall and then fell down feeling like I was burning alive. After what seemed like an eternity of pain, it went away and I was so weak I crawled back to find you against the wall."

She told him the rest of what happened, from finding him, his condition and seeing what happened to Alucard to Integra calling and Alucard coming back and the blood totally disappearing from the Tower completely.

"You drank Alucard's blood and gained your freedom."

"I guess I did. I didn't even notice it. Wow. Other than the power change, I don't feel much different." she said sadly, then snorted lightly as she turned away to look at the dark curtains. "I gained power while you lost yours. What a trade off."

"I really thought my attack would work. How stupid I was." he growled to himself as he got up and began to pace. "I should have realized giving my life force wouldn't have killed him. He was a lot more powerful than I thought. My gullibility got the better of me."

"What are we going to do?" she mumbled as he went into the kitchen and grabbed several items of food, most of it chocolate and cold coffee.

"I don't know. I do know I am hungry. How many days have I been out?"

"Five counting today. Sir Integra, Walter, Captain Ferguson and BG went back to the manor." she said telling him about the letter. "We are to come back as soon as you feel better and are ready to go. I guess that means tonight since I have had to drink transfusion blood."

"Damn." he said with anger. "There goes our daily walks."

"We could walk at night."

"We could. I won't be able to see anything but you can guide me. This sucks! I won't live forever now!"

"Which means you'll eventually die and leave me alone." she said wiping her eyes.

"DAMN!" he yelled as he knocked aside the empty dishes shattering them as they hit the floor. "If only I had some way to make it possible to live longer. Getting one of those aliens, a Tok'ra I think the SGC people said, would be nice. However, you still couldn't drink off me and from what little they talked about, I couldn't stay here on Earth. I don't know of any enchantments unless you make a pact with a demon which is wrong, evil and a bad idea no matter what anyway."

"There….there is one way." she muttered. "But I don't think you'll like it."

"What is it?"

"I don't understand it, seeing as everything we have been through together and you with Sir Integra. I've been thinking about it since Solomon said you lost your Immortality. I think, because you said you died all those years ago before loosing your virginity that that is why you still have it now."

"Huh?" he said confused and amazed.

"Your scent, your blood, it smells of virgin blood. I don't…" she said looking at the floor while rubbing her hands together nervously.

She was surprised when he came over knocking her back on the bed and ripping the shirt open as he began kissing her neck and rubbing his hands over her body. She had no idea why he was doing this, but her body responded quickly as he felt her up.

"Ah!" she gasped while she started to push him away. "What are you doing?"

"I want you, right now." he said licking her right ear lightly. "I want to take you while you change me."

"What? Are you serious?!" she asked as he took her panties off with his teeth. "But I am still learning to control myself. How are you going to control yourself from turning into a monster like Alucard if I did turn you into one of us?"

"You will be my Master, right? Which means, since we will be together pretty much all the time and I will ask Integra to make sure we stay together, we will keep each other in check." he said kissing her neck and trailing down to her chest.

"But…ah!" she said as he sucked. "I don't like this idea. I shouldn't have said anything. Turning you would be…."

"A great idea." he said straddling her after he removed his jogging pants. "I will live forever with you and if we start to loose control, Integra can seal us. It hurts like hell at first, but what else choice is there? I want to stay with you. There is so much I still want to do and I want to see that baby grow up. We both could become very powerful vampires, good ones though, and have a lot of fun, but since we both want to retain our humanity, we can do our best to keep each other in check and not become like Alucard."

"Wait!" she said pushing his waist away before he entered her. "If I do this, we can't have sex at the same time."

"Oh right." he said sitting up. "I'd rather not become a ghoul you'd have to kill. Sorry, I wasn't think there."

"That and Integra would kill me. As for your brain, it is in the wrong head at the moment." she said removing his ripped shirt. "At least it was one of your shirts. Do you really want to do this? Seriously?"

"Yes. More than anything right now. Besides, seeing you totally open like this makes me want it even more. And this is the only time it could happen because once we have sex…"

She sat up and closed her legs to his disappointment.

"If it wasn't for the fact I am the one you are fantasying about, I'd swear you are a pervert."

"Only for you."

He laid down on the bed as she straddled him just above the waist to ensure neither of them gave to the urge of having sex. With all that touching, kissing and sucking he had been doing to her, she was ready to explode and let him explode in her, but doing so would loose the ability he was asking for.

"This will hurt for a few moments. Are you…."

He grabbed her face giving her a deep kiss that lasted a good minute before placing his neck in her face.

"More than anything Seras. I don't want to leave you alone much less die even of old age."

"Okay." she said nodding. "I love you so much."

"I love you to."

He did grunt out in pain and ignored it the best he could as she sank her fangs into his neck and started sucking away. She was drinking rather quickly from him making sure not a drop of blood was wasted or got free from her mouth. Even though he was loosing blood quickly, the idea and the fact he could feel her naked body pressing against his turned him on even more despite how weak his body was getting. Instinct was telling him to push her off as his body got weaker and weaker. Through it all he kept thinking of all their times together in bed to ignore the sensation of the blood loss. His hands, which had been on her arms, dropped as he couldn't hold them up anymore as he felt himself dying, which, though a somewhat familiar feeling, was different this time and yet the same, but still scared him nonetheless. She stopped drinking as she knew he was ready to take hers to change and become her fledgling. After biting her wrist shortly after licking his neck for a few moments to get what was left, she held it over his open mouth and looked down to see he was still aroused despite the fact she was sure she had drained him. His heart had quit beating seconds ago. Not thinking about it further, mostly because she wanted him to change so they could have some fun then sleep the day away, she watched her blood leave her wrist and his body drink it without letting it leave his mouth. After a minute or so, she stopped and sat on his waist waiting, still surprised at his body still being hard in that area for a couple of moments more before it started deflating. After another minute, she wondered if it worked or if she did something wrong. He didn't change into a ghoul mostly because he didn't look like one. He did turn cold and then his eyes shot open looking blood red like hers a good five minutes later.

"Whoa." he said slowly. "This has to be the weirdest feeling I have ever felt. So this is undead. No heartbeat, no breathing."

"General…" she said cupping his face with her hands.

He sat up slowly and licked his lips that had her blood on them.

"You're right. Blood does taste incredible. And I have eaten many things that have had some incredible to die for flavor. I can see why you want to try to avoid drinking as much as possible. I can feel why you hate it as well and it makes me hate it. Good thing we feel the same way. This telepathic thing has gotten stronger."

"You need blood don't you? I should have realized…" she said getting up and heading towards the fridge.

She was jerked back and pulled onto his lap as he kissed her neck and rubbed her arms and other areas as he pulled her closer.

"I am thirsty." he said lightly in her ear. "But since I need to get used to ignoring the sensation, better start now then later. I'm not dying of thirst or in desperate need of it, so I can wait. Besides, there is something much more that I want right now."

"You have to remember something above all else when we have sex…."

"I prefer the term making love." he said kissing her neck and then pulling away quickly as he felt his fangs start to grow and her yell in his mind to back off causing him a bit of pain. "Ouch! What was that?!"

"You can't bite me. In fact, I order you to not even try or else. Understand?" she said turning her head so their eyes met. "I am now your Master and I will not allow you to drink my blood until I feel you are ready to have that freedom. Which I don't feel like giving up anytime soon. Probably not at all. Understand?"

"Yes Master." he said bowing his head in servitude since his body currently couldn't. "That's going to take some getting used to."

"I wonder how Sir Integra is going to take this now that I have my freedom and that you are now under me."

"In more ways than one." he said with a sly and seductive smile. That went away suddenly as his face turned into horror.

"What's wrong?!"

"I'm never going to be able to have chocolate ever again! This sucks!"

She laughed at first and then smacked him up side the head lightly.

"Idiot."

"I guess I deserved that." he said while rubbing the back of his head.

"Yes. You did. But at least you're my idiot." she said while turning around to straddle him. "Now, where were we…."
