The Second Glass

Chapter Twenty-Four

Authors Note: Alright this is my first Hellsing FanFic and I got the idea while watching Hellsing (duh).

The story as a whole will remain RATED M FOR LEMON.

Also I do not own Hellsing or any part of it.

Enjoy.


Anderson sits calmly in his chair, his assortment of bayonets arranged before him and glistening in the light fromt he lamp overhead. He finishes the last blade and lays it beside the rest, studying them a long moment before smiling.

"Time to learn the true warth of our lord God, you Hellsing dogs." Anderson murmurs as another explosion rocks the building. He can hear shouts as the remaining forces call out orders, reports flying back and forth.

"The captive vampire has disappeared! Target aquired and heading west along the far corridor. He is alone and on foot. Go! Go! Go!" Anderson grins and sheathes his blades in thier proper places, stepping from the room and locking the door behind him. The soldiers in the corridor all stop as they see him, silence reigning in the hallway as all eyes watch him depart.

...

Daniel sprints down the hall, backtracking toward where he had last seen Amanda. As his thoughts reach for her he sees a flash of auburn. Daniel skids to a stop, pressing his back against the nearest wall.

"Amanda!" The vampiress stops and turns, at his side in a moment.

"You got her! Thank the gods. She's still alive right?" Amanda asks in a rush. Daniel growls at the barrage of questions.

"Send word to Alex. Everyone emergency evacuation right now. Tell everyone to get the hell out now!"

"What's going on?" Amanda demands. Daniel shifts his grip on Seras, shifting her weight in his arms.

"Just tell them and follow me. We need to get out of here now!"

...

Across the compound Alex stops, throwing out both arms to stop Samuel and Walter behind him. He does not move for a moment than spins, glancing at Samuel before meeting Walter's gaze.

"Orders from Amanda. She says to retreat immediately. They have Seras and apparently Daniel says Alucard is about to go nuclear." Walter's brow furrows and he lets out a low hum.

"That cannot be good." Walter says quietly. "That could only mean that something has happened to Seras, otherwise Sir Integra would not release Alucard's restrictions." He looks up sharply than points up.

"We need to get above ground immediately. Let's move."

...

"They're on thier way out, they're not to far from here. What are we going to do?" Amanda says, following close behind Daniel. He does not glance back, focusing on the hallway ahead.

"We need to evacuate, get above ground and clear of the compound. We meet up with Walter and the others than tend to Seras. Alucard can handle himself and I sure as hell don't want to be here when Alucard let's loose." Amanda nods in agreement than backpedals, skidding to a stop as Daniel comes to an abrupt halt before her. The long passage before them leads to a staircase, Amanda catching the brief whiff of fresh air and pine from the far end of the corridor.

Only two doors, one on either side of the hallway, are between them and the door and Daniel turns slightly toward Amanda.

"Take Seras. Keep low and against the wall. Don't move until I say too." He murmurs. Amanda obeys, taking Seras and backing up several paces before crouching against the wall. She rests Seras on the floor, cradling her against her body and watching Daniel in worried silence.

Daniel takes a slow step forward, gaze focused on the door to the left. It does not open yet he can smell a being behind the door lying in wait. His heart starts to race as he takes another step forward.

This one is different. His heart does not race in fear or anticipation, he is calm, confident. I have to be incredibly careful with this one. If i can just get Amanda and Seras through, that's all that matters.

"Come out already. I know you are there." Daniel calls out, his commanding tone echoing through the hall. The door creaking quietly as it is opened is the answer.

A tall, incredibly tall person steps out, shutting the door behind him. He walks in long strides, slowly working his way up the corridor toward Daniel as he speaks. His voice is low, sounding barely restrained as blue eyes focus on Daniel.

"I shall cleanse this land of thy heathens i see before me. Praise be to thy lord in heaven. Amen." Daniel takes a step back as a memory comes back. Seras and thier group sitting together in the conference room back in America, sharing stories.

"Of all the missions i have been on, i would have to say that the one that scared me most was my first. Not only was it my first mission but we ran into an agent of the Iscariot organization. Father Alexander Anderson. I have never seen anyone fight head on with my master Alucard like he did. He's a monster."

"Did he look like one?" Amanda had asked.

"Oh no. I remember he was tall, impossibly tall and blonde. He had blue green eyes and a scar down his left cheek. He wore a cross and fights with bayonets. If you ever run into anyone from Iscariot, and especially him, do not fight. Run. That's the only chance you'll have."

I can't run Seras, not this time. I will get you out of here, you and Amanda i swear it. Even if i have to die at his blades i will get you out of here.

"I have heard of you." Daniel states. Before him the figure stops.

"Oh really now." Daniel nods, refusing to glance back at Amanda no matter how badly he wants to.

"Yeah. Seras told me all about you." A low chuckle fills the hallway.

"That little draculina? I bet she did have alot to say." He starts forward again, a wide feral grin spreading as the ice blue gaze shifts behind Daniel.

An icy breeze brushes against his back and Daniel can't help but flinch as a gun appears beside his head. A white glove grips the handle, a black clothed arm appearing and hovering over Daniel's shoulder. A lock of long black hair slithes along the sleeve as if it has a mind and will of it's own, more locks joining it to create a quivering mass near Daniel's ear.

"I thought I told you to leave." A gravely voice growls in his ear. He shifts his head just enough to see an enraged red glow behind him. There is insanity in his gaze, power fluxuating wildly around him and Daniel can only nod, slipping to the side swiftly and ducking behind Alucard.

"The Hellsing family dog Alucard. I knew you would show up eventually. You're to good to rely on weaklings to do yourjob for you." Anderson sneers. "I must say her screams were quite delectable."

Daniel backs up, looking away only long enough to retrieve Seras and shoo Amanda down thecorridor back the way they had come. He glances back once, his eyes widening in terror before he turns, swiftly fleeing down the corridor.

We've got to get out of here now. All hells about to break loose.

Boom Boom Boom...
