Chapter 10: Insanity and Rage

There was a lone figure in the room. Alucard and Seras slowly approached it. As they got closer, their eyes widened with recognition.

"Oh my God…" Seras whispered.

Her low whisper caught the figure's attention. The figure turned around to reveal Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing. Bathed in blood and looking like a mess. A chain was around her neck, chaining her to the bloodstained floor. A human bone was in her mouth, clamped tightly between her sharp teeth.

"Master…" Seras asked, "what did they…"

"They turned her." Alucard whispered.

And that wasn't all they did. Insanity blazed in her red eyes as her fangs bit down so hard that the bone in her teeth broke in two. She began crawling across the floor, blood and saliva spilling from her mouth.

"Alucard… Seras…" she whispered. "I WANT!"

She pounced at them, held back by the chain around her neck. But that didn't stop her from trying to get at her prey like a rabid animal. Integra was clearly insane. And not the kind of insane that Alucard was, but the in desperate need of a straightjacket insane.

Seras stepped back in horror and disgust as she looked at what her good friend and mentor had been reduced to. "Sir Integra, what did they do to you?"

Alucard remained silent. He slowly reached out for his master and Integra bit down on his hand and began draining him of blood. Behind his glasses, his copper eyes burned with fury.

"Do you like her?" came an evil, yet familiar voice from the shadows. "She's a real work of art."

Seras looked around for the speaker, but saw no one. "Where are you? What did you do to Sir Integra?"

The person laughed again. "Isn't it obvious? I drove her insane. She was in my custody for over a month. I had a lot of fun with her. Oh, Alucard, you would have been so proud of her. She was very difficult to break, but the human mind can only take so much before it snaps. And after I got her just the way I wanted, I turned her. Now she's perfection."

Integra began lapping up at the blood on the floor like a dehydrated puppy. Her eyes rolled around in madness, showing nothing of the old leader of Hellsing. She turned to Seras, grinning an insane grin.

"Seras, Seras Victoria." She hissed. She reached up and dragged her nails down from her forehead to her chin, slitting her face open. She looked at the blood on her fingers before lapping it up and looking back at Seras. "I want your blood. I want your BLOOD!"

She began clawing and snapping at thin air, trying to reach the young vampire. Seras backed up, unable to believe that the creature before her was Integra. She just didn't want to believe it.

"You'll have to forgive her." came the voice, sounding much closer. "I twisted her mind into thinking that she's always hungry. Sometimes she'll even feed on herself. One time she even bit off her own tongue to get to her own blood. She threw such a fit when it grew back right away."

""You're sick!" Seras shouted. "Hurting innocent people is bad enough, but driving a good person into madness… that's… that's…"

A hand rested on her shoulder. Seras looked up at Alucard. He had an expression on his face that she never seen before. He stepped forward, making sure to remain out of Integra's reach.

"Who are you?" he asked, his calm tone filled with cold fury. "Show your face to me. You will pay for what you've done to our master."

Movement was heard as something crawled across the floor. It grabbed Integra's chain and yanked her back, pulling her into an embrace. The creature came out of hiding, keeping a tight hold on Integra as it dragged its tongue over her face.

Seras made a disgusted face when she saw the creature, but Alucard's eyes widened in surprise. "What are you?" he whispered.

The creature chuckled. "You know what I am, Alucard. You sense it."

The creature came into the light, revealing its hideous features. Seras gasped in surprise. The creature had a resemblance to Alucard, enough that it could pass off as a relative, a severally mutated relative. Its eyes were as red as blood, and what should have been the whites of its eyes were as black as night. Large teeth were aligned in rows like a shark's and its lipless mouth was twisted into a permanent grin that was made even more eerie by the fact that it didn't have any cheeks. Long white hair fell down to the waste of its mutant body, and veins were clearly visible over its bare chest, arms, and face, pulsing with each beat of its heart.

Seras took a step back. "What are you? Master, what is he?"

Ordinarily, Alucard would have grinned at this unexpected challenge, but he was too enraged by what had become of Integra to feel any excitement. "I knew that they wanted a creature like me in their services, but I never thought that they would try something like this."

The creature cocked its head to the side. "Well you certainly leave a lot of blood samples behind. Still, you're DNA is so warped that the process failed countless times."

Seras looked from Alucard to the creature in confusion. "Um, excuse me, but what the hell is going on?"

"Don't you sense it?" Alucard asked. "His aura is the same as mine, just extremely warped. If they did it to The Major, they can do it to me."

"Huh?"

"He's a clone of me, Seras."

"WHAT?" Seras looked between the handsome vampire king to the ugly mutant creature drawing circles on Integra's head with it needle-like claws. "That… thing is a clone of you? It looks nothing like you. Maybe enough to be a relative, but not to be you."

The creature chuckled. "That's because I'm not an exact clone. I've been altered, improved, and mutated. I'm a far more advanced version of him. Faster, stronger-"

"Uglier." Seras added, cutting her eyes at him.

"You're breaking my heart." The creature grumbled.

Alucard growled. "Walter said that the intruder wore my face, but I never expected a clone."

"You face? Oh you mean this face?" His featured changed to that of an exact replica of Alucard's, then changed back. "Taking down Hellsing was a lot of fun. And Walter, well, he was the only one that was really entertaining."

"You bastard!" Seras shouted.

The creature chuckled. "If you want to get technical, then yes, I am a bastard. But I am also the perfect killing machine. I am the creature that your master used to be. I am the true Dracula, the one that miserable excuse of vampire should be."

"Shut up!" Seras shouted. "Don't compare my master to you!"

"He's nothing compared to me. Not only am I stronger than him at his best, but I also don't have locks on my powers like he does." He looked down at Integra and licked off a drop of blood that was hanging from her hair. "He's nothing but a pet now, like this little bitch. Tell me, Alucard, don't you miss the days you behaved as I do now. Causing death and destruction wherever you went. Looking at me, of what you once were and should be, must remind you of all the good times."

He waited for a response from his counterpart, but Alucard remained silent. This just made him narrow his eyes suspiciously. "Oh, don't tell me that you've grown a conscience. Have these humans rubbed off on you? Are you glad that you have those restrictions on your powers to avoid temptation?"

Still no response. Dracula just grinned at him. "It doesn't matter. You're nothing like you were before. As for me," he held his arm out and Integra sank her teeth into it and began gulping down blood, "I'm even more diabolic then you were at your meanest. I'm all you darkest desires come to life. I take what I want."

He moved towards Integra's neck.

"Don't touch her!" Alucard snapped. Seeing the person he respected more than anyone reduced to this pitiful state was beyond infuriating.

Dracula froze and looked up at his counterpart. "Why, does it infuriate you that I have been drinking of her blood? Ever since you awoke in that dungeon, you've wanted more. The powerful blood of a Hellsing. Delicious." He dragged his tongue over Integra's neck. "Did you know I fucked her as well? That's right, you're master is no longer a virgin in the slightest. There were times when she wasn't sure if she was enjoying it or hating it." His eyes shifted to Seras. "And I look forward to experiencing your Police Girl's flesh. Tell me, have you fucked her yet?" Seras turned beet red. "Oh my, your little pet is turning red. Is that a yes, or a no? It doesn't matter to me." He tapped his chin and licked his lips. "Hmm, I think I'll skin her then fuck her skinless body. Integra here liked it when I did that. Well, sometimes she did. Mostly she hated it."

Seras was about to say something, but then she noticed Alucard shaking. "M-Master?"

A low growl began in the vampire king's throat. His eyes and the markings on the back of his gloved hands began glowing red. "I will make you suffer like no other has ever suffered. Restriction systems three… two… one… RELEASED!"

His familiars all but exploded from his body. Dracula's eyes shined with excitement. "So, you're ready to fight now." He said, tearing his arm out of Integra's mouth. Integra pouted up at him, but he simply patted her head. "It's your turn now. Say the words."

Integra looked confused for a moment, but then her face lit up with excitement and she turned to Alucard. "Obey me, vampire! I am your master! Kneel before me!"

Alucard's eyes narrowed. "You relinquished your claim to me." His eyes shifted to Seras before turning back to Integra. "You have passed ownership. You are no longer my master, Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing."

Seras' eyes widened with realization. 'Sir Integra, you knew. You knew something like this would happen to you if you were caught. That's why you gave me control over Master's ability restrictions. You were prepared for the worst.'

Integra's eyes narrowed angrily. "No!" she shouted, pointing at Alucard. "Mine! Mine! Mine!"

"Quite now." Dracula cooed. "It looks like you were too smart for your own good before you came to me. He's no longer yours." He chuckled evilly. "So things aren't going according to plan. But that's ok, I've been wanting a challenge." His finger traveled towards the chain around Integra's neck. His needle-like claw went inside the lock and it clicked open. "Go have fun."

Integra leapt away from him and charged after Seras like a starved rabid animal. Seras squeaked and ran away with Integra right behind her, snarling and snapping.

Alucard paid them no mind. His attention was on the creature that dared to take his former name and call himself his superior. "You better summon up your familiars unless your claim to be stronger than me means your good enough to face me as you are."

Dracula's twisted body moved in an inhuman fashion as he got to his feet. "Familiars, yes. How long has it been since you've had a real vampire battle? I see that you have quite the collection there. Though I am your clone, I don't have the same ones. But know this, there were many failed experiments done here, and I took them all. They are all my familiars."

"You claim to be my counterpart, yet I don't recall ever being one to talk so much!" Alucard snapped impatiently. He wanted blood, not a speech.

Dracula snickered. "So true. Then lets begin."

He summoned up his own familiars. His body burst into a black mass much large than Alucard's. The eyes that floated with the darkness were not red, but purple like those of a ghoul's. More than just centipedes swam around in his dark aura, and his inherited familiars were mutated and more diabolic looking than Alucard's.

But the vampire king wasn't discouraged in the least, and the two black masses collided together like two raging storms ready to cause great destruction with no care of who got in the way.

Seras was having her own problems trying to keep away from her former boss. She couldn't bring herself to attack Integra, no matter what she had become. The woman may be completely insane and may now be a vampire, but to Seras she was still Integra.

"Please, Sir Integra, it's me, Seras!" she shouted.

"Yes!" Integra cried, insanity blazing in her eyes.

She tackled Seras and the two crashed to the floor. Integra bit into Seras' neck, not simple biting, but tearing it out.

"No!" Seras shouted, elbowing Integra in the gut. She managed to throw the woman off her. Quickly she got to her feet. Her hand went to her neck, it was already healing, but it was still torn open. "My god, Sir, have you really been reduced to this?"

Integra turned to her, crawling on all fours. Foam ran down her mouth as she eyed the young vampire hungrily.

Seras backed up. "Please, Sir, don't you recognize me? Don't you remember everything we did together?"

Integra made a noise that sounded like a cross between a laugh and a cough. "Oh yes, I remember. I let you taste my blood once. Now return the favor!"

She pounced and Seras jumped out of the way. Integra collided painfully with the wall. She leaned against it for a moment before screaming like a mad woman and began bashing her head repeatedly against the hard stonewall.

Seras watched her, horrified. She slowly approached the deranged vampire and rested a hand on her shoulder. Integra whirled around, her eyes widening as if she had just seen Seras for the first time.

Then she attacked. Seras was pinned beneath her and Integra went for her throat, tearing through flesh and bone. Seras struggled beneath her former master's hold, but Integra's insanity seemed to give her vampire strength an extra boost, and she held the Police Girl down.

'No.' thought Seras, feeling tears form in her eyes. 'It can't end like this. It can't end like this!'

Her eyes snapped open, glowing with red light, and she bit the top of Integra's head. The former Hellsing leader cried out and pulled away. Seras sat up and slammed her elbow into Integra's face as hard as she could.

Integra fell back, nose broken and bleeding. She ran her sharp nails down the sides of her head, drawing blood, before pouncing at Seras again. Seras responded by kicking her former friend and mentor in the jaw. Integra fell back and began rolling on the blood stained ground with her hands over her mouth. She got to her knees and punched the ground repeatedly, shattering the bones in her hand and splitting the skin open with each hit.

"Sir Integra?"

Integra jumped towards the speaker and Seras viciously backhanded her, sending the insane vampire flying across the room. She got on her knees and began pulling her hair, screaming like a banshee.

Seras turned away from Integra and ran over to the raging storm that was the two vampires battling. Every now and then she caught a glimpse of a familiar, but the movements were too swift and there was too much happening at once to be able to tell what was going on.

'Come on, Master, you can do it. This thing is nothing but a copy. He's a mere shadow of what you really are. There's no way you can lose.'

Nevertheless, she was still nervous. She had the utmost fate in her master, but if he was fighting a stronger version of himself, then the odds weren't exactly in his favor.

She cautiously glanced over her shoulder to check on Integra. She was both relieved and horrified to find her in the same place as before, attempting to claw her own face off.

Unable to watch, Seras turned back to the battle. 'Please hurry, Master. I can't stand to see Sir Integra like this. We have to get her out of here so we can help her… if she can be helped.'

Red and purple eyes swirled around as insects battled one another. A large deformed Hell Hound clamped its jaws around another Hell Hound's throat before arms made of darkness grabbed it and tore it away. Blood splashed left and right as the sound of growling and gunfire was heard from within.

Finally there was an explosion from within the black mass and a river of blood flowed from the darkness. The large black mass shrank to half its size as one of the fighters returned to normal and was thrown across the room.

Seras was horrified to see Alucard's broken bleeding body lying unmoving on the floor. "No, it can't be. It can't be. Master!" She ran to the fallen vampire's side. He seemed to be unconscious. "No, no, Master! Get up! You have to get up! You can't be defeated!"

"Apparently he can be." Seras turned and saw the black mass that was Dracula closing in on them. "I was created to be his better. I was made his superior. I am his death, and now I will finish the job."

"NO!" Seras cried, throwing herself over her master's body.

Unaware that she was even doing anything, Seras summoned up the darkness and surrounded the two of them with it. Their bodies transformed into a swarm of bats and took flight, fazing right through the walls in retreat.

Dracula frowned and returned to his normal state. "Flee for now if you wish, but it will only buy you time. I'm in no hurry." He grinned. "Why would I want to get rid of my greatest rival so soon?" He looked at Integra and watched as she gnawed at her own ankle. "Besides, being his clone, I know Alucard better than anyone. He'll be back. They both will."

(-)-(-)-(-)-(-)-(-)-(-)-(-)-(-)-(-)

The bats flew through the sky. Dawn was already here and the rays of sunlight burned greatly. It was ten times worse than running into the Hellsing headquarters when it was up in flames. They had to get out of the sunlight, now!

The swarm of bats flew towards the closest shelter. They fazed through the walls, feeling immediate relief from the sun's burning rays.

The bats came together and Seras and Alucard reappeared. Seras' body was burned in various places, but Alucrad was unharmed except for the wounds he had received in battle. But both his and her wounds were already healing, however Alucard remained unconscious.

"Oh Master, how could this have happened?" Seras whispered, cradling the vampire king's head. Tears of blood began pouring down her cheeks, yet she did nothing to wipe them away. "How could things have gone so wrong? Things were going so well. Millennium had finally been destroyed, Iscariot was defeated… but then, these damn rogues come and ruin it all. I've lost everything, Master, I can't lose you too!"

Her fingernail began extra sharp and she sliced her neck open. Blood spilled out, and her regeneration powers kicked in, but she wouldn't allow it to heal. She lifted Alucard up and pressed his lips to her wound. The moment his lips touched her blood, his tongue snaked out and dragged over the cut. After a few seconds his eyes snapped open, glowing with red light, and he bit down.

Seras winced as she felt Alucard bite into her and drink her blood. She was surprised by what she felt. It hurt, yes, but it felt incredible! This had to be better than sex. How could it not be? She had heard that have a vampire feed on you felt good, but this was something else entirely.

"You drink too, Police Girl." Came Alucard voice in her mind. "Feed from me! Take my blood!"

Seras' mouth watered and she was suddenly unbelievable thirsty. Unable to resist, she turned her head and bit into Alucard's neck. The pleasure increased tenfold and she was soon gulping down mouthfuls of her master's life essence.

She wasn't sure how long they remained there drinking from each other. For all she knew, it was probably her own blood she was drinking from him now. But finally Alucard pulled away and carefully pushed Seras back.

The younger vampire blinked a few times as she returned to herself. Looking up at her master, she was overwhelmed by relief and embarrassment.

"M-Master?" she muttered, unable to think of anything to say.

"He's strong." Alucard whispered. "He's even stronger than Incognito was after he invoked Sett." He sighed. "It seems I made a mistake, one I do not intend to repeat."

Seras blinked. He seemed a little too calm after what had just happened. "Um… Master, are you alright."

Alucard looked at her. "I have long since returned to full strength, Police Girl. However, that does not change the fact that his claim is true."

Seras looked down. "Then… there's no way we can win?"

After a few seconds of silence, Alucard spoke. "I didn't say that."

Seras turned to him n confusion. "But… you just said that-"

"It is true that he has more power than I do… but I have something he doesn't." A knowing grin appeared on his face. "He's all alone, while I have you Police Girl. I said before that perhaps it's time for a vampire that doesn't walk alone at night."

"But," Seras whispered, "but he's not alone either. He has Sir Integra."

"It's not the same. "Alucard told her. "He's twisted her mind so much that she is more like a wild animal than a companion. But I have you by my side, Seras Victoria. And with the two of us together, we will take down anyone in our path."

(A/N: I know, that's really messed up. I feel bad for what I did to Integra. But she's been in the hands of psychopaths for over a month. What did you think would happen? Oh, and about Dracula, he's basically just a clone of Alucard that was altered and mutated, then decided to take on the name Dracula. Things are coming to an end, so stay tuned.)
