The Lost Priest

Chapter 30

Final Confrontation Pt. 2

(A/N I'm slowly coming to a closing. Let's see if I get this done in this chapter or if I have to do another chapter. I really want to bring the story to a close but it's like the never ending story. Anyways please review. It would make me feel better in knowing I'm doing this story right.)

SOUNDS/sounds

Thoughts

Telepathy

(Last Time)

"So she has mets ze good Captain, eh? Vell, she von't last long on her own," The Doctor chuckled only to get slugged by Seth.

"Hold thy tongue, cur," Seth growled as she bared her fangs and fanned out her wings. "She will make it! I have full confidence in her and everyone else here!"

"What are the codes, Doctor?" William asked, turning to look at the man.

"Vhat codes?" The Doctor grinned.

"Sound Fire, if you would be so kind and finish our game one knuckle at time," William said as he and Isaak tried to hack into the system.

Seth walked around the Doctor as he sat in the chair. His hands were bound tightly to make sure he didn't get way. Seth pulled a dagger from her armor and starting working on his ring finger one knuckle at time. She made the cuts as long and agonizing as possible until he started screaming out the codes for the operating system.

(Present Time Hindenburg II main bridge)

"Vhat is zis?!" the Major yelled as he rose from his seat looking at the screens surround him shutting down.

Everything on the main bridge was powering down and all programs were rerouting to the sub-bridge. The Hindenburg II was lowering altitude and rapidly.

"Mien Herr, ze enemy has control of the sub-bridge," an operator said, turned to look at the chubby man behind him.

"Gets control back! Gets its back now!" the Major snapped.

"Ve can'ts! Zey have uploaded a virus und reprogrammed ze computer," the operator said. "Zey now have full control of ze Hindenburg II."

"Zey are planning to crash us! Ve are accelerating downwards rapidly!" another operator said.

"So, there you are, you cubby little bastard!"

Everyone on the main bridge quickly turned to the doorway to see two women armed and aiming right at the Major. Everyone quickly reached for their own guns and aimed at the women.

"So you are as vell, I see. Sir Hellsing and Cardinal Sforza. How delightful. You've come all ze vay here just to kill me? I'm greatly honored," the Major said, trying to grin but it came out looking more a snarl. "You have done quite vell for yourselves. I'm impressed."

"Don't you dare flatter us, you filth," Caterina spat out. "You have any idea what you have done?! All of the innocent lives you've destroy?!"

"Yes, I do und quite enjoyed its! All ze screaming und crying! Ze smell of blood und burning flesh! All of its!" the Major snorted. "Just like I'm going to enjoy watching ze both of you die! KILL ZEM!!"

On that order everyone in the control room emptied their guns at the two women in the doorway. Seconds later the bullets returned with just as much force as when they left the barrel of their guns. The stray bullets pelted everything in the room. From machine to FREAK vampire. Blood splattered everywhere and poured on to the floor along with the bodies.

Those that remained stared on in horror. Caterina and Integra were still standing without so much as scratch on them. In from of them was a shimmering force field of some sort. Smug smirks split their faces as they looked at the Major and what was left of those in the room. The Major had suffered a few hits himself but nothing that was life threatening.

"Methuselah technology at it's finest, Major," Integra grinned. "It was a gift from Empress Augusta. You didn't honestly expect us to come after you as we are, did you?"

"I see," the Major growled. "I should have expected as much."

"Is that so, you chubby little thing from hell?" a voice said over the speakers and video flashed in with Isaak. "Greetings from the sub-bridge, my ladies. We are currently heading towards the ground, not that I need to tell you that, but we do have the controls locked and we have about 7 minutes to get off this ill-fated airship! Just thought you ought to know."

"Understood, Panzer Magier, this won't take any time," Caterina said as she lowered the Aegis Shield and took aim at the Major. "It's over, Major!"

"ZAT'S VHAT YOU ZINK!" the Major laughed, holding up a small remote in his hands.

He pushed down the button and small explosions erupted in the main bridge. Smoke filled the room and obstructed their sight. Caterina took a couple blind shots but only heard the bullets hit metal. When the smoke cleared enough the Major was nowhere to be found. There must be a trap door somewhere. That meant he could be anywhere on the ship!

Seras rolled along the ground after getting slammed by the Captain. She slowly pushed herself up and spat out a little blood. This guy was strong, really strong. She had to destroy him. But how? Seras quickly rolled out the way as set of massive jaws snapped down where her head been.

She scrambled to her feet and tried to find something to fight with. A gun, a blade, anything! This was looking bad for her. She jumped out the way as the large wolf charged at her only to be swatted out of the air like a fly by his tail. She managed to land on her feet this time but just barely.

"Dammit!" she hissed, looking at him transform back his human form. "Dammit to hell!"

She charged at him with great speed and her gloved hand in a tight fist. Fuck she missed. She flipped around and went to try again only to get slammed in the stomach but the Captain's own fist. She was flung back through a wall. She couldn't move. This was bad, this was very bad. Her vision was getting a little blurry but she could still make out the Captain's tall form looming over her. She needed to get up.

The Captain leaned over and grabbed Seras by the front of her shirt. She in turn grabbed a piece of debris and slammed it into the side of his head with all of her might. He dropped her and quickly put a hand to his bleeding head. Seras quickly picked up some more large debris pieces and started throwing them at him to keep him at bay until she could come up with way to beat him.

"Captain! Let's gets outs of here," some yelled, running towards them.

Seras saw a large furry blur rush pass her as she turned. Farther down hall there was the Captain with the Major. The short chubby man climbed on the werewolf's back. What was he doing here? Caterina and Integra should have dealt with him.

"Hey, wait just a minute," Seras snapped at them.

"Good bye, Fraulein. Sorry, buts I can'ts stay und chat," The Major said, hurrying down hall, riding the Captain like large horse.

"Cowards, get back here!" She yelled at them as she felt the ship take a sharper dive. "Whoa! What going on?"

She started to give chase only to have hand put on her shoulder. She turned around ready to slug the FREAK behind her only to find a man with long shaggy blond hair and a uniform that looked similar to Isaak's. Was he also from the Orden or was this a cheap trick?

He bowed to her slightly and she raised an eyebrow. Just who was this guy and why didn't he speak? He was just as silent as the Captain. A moment later hurried footsteps started her way. She turned her head to see Isaak, William, and Seth running towards her.

"Police Girl," William called out as they reached her. "The Major got away. We've been trying to contact you. We need to get off this airship. We've reprogrammed this airship to crash."

"You did what?!" Seras snapped at William.

"I don't believe it," Isaak said, looking at the man beside her. "Guderian! How did you get here?"

"You know him?" Seras said as Isaak walked up to him.

"Yes, he's part of the Orden," Isaak clarified. "But I don't understand why he's here."

"Where did the Captain go?" Seth asked, looking up as Seras. "Did you get him?"

"Oh, no! The Captain took the Major with him and fled. I have to go after them," Seras said, hitting herself in the head totally forgetting her objective. "I'm so stupid!"

"Seras, before you go, am I to understand that the Captain is a werewolf?" Isaak asked, looking at Seras at then at Guderian.

"Yes," Seras nodded.

"Perfect. Guderian, go with Seras. She's going to need your help," Isaak said, looking at his fellow Orden member. "And from the looks of it—a lot of help."

"Geez, thanks a lot," Seras hissed at him. "You know, I really don't appreciate—EEEEK!"

Seras was jerked down the hall by Guderian before she could finish her sentence to Isaak. So, he must be a werewolf too, considering Isaak sent him with her. If he was, that would must definitely even the odds a bit. Just one thing bugged her. Didn't werewolves talk? First a silent enemy and now a silent partner and both werewolves.

Seth set William and Isaak down on the ground as did Abel with Caterina and Integra. They turned to watch the Hindenburg II continued its nose dive. Hopefully Seras and Guderian made it out. They had no way of contacting them. Seras' radio was cleanly no longer working and Guderian didn't even have a radio.

"It should crash in about 1 minute. We need to get to a secure area away from the blast," Isaak said, quickly running.

Everyone quickly followed after him, looking for a place to hide. They got down in a crater in the pavement behind some large debris. They waited for it to hit. They heard it crash into the ground with twisting of metal and shattering of glass but there was no boom. William and Isaak took small peak around the chunk of turned up pavement and saw the large airship only wedged between to buildings. It never made it to the ground.

"Oh, fuck," Integra growled, looking out from behind William and Isaak. "Why am I not surprised…?"

"In any case it's not going anywhere," Seth said with a sigh. "We might as well get back to the front lines. They are going to need us."

"What about Seras?" Abel asked. "Where is she?"

"Don't know. Her radio's out. She going after the Major and the Captain," William said, looking at Abel. "She's with another Orden member."

"Rosenkruez Orden?" Abel asked, turning to Isaak.

"Hm, yes, Guderian is our Orden's own personal werewolf. The Captain she's after is also a werewolf. It may even the odds," Isaak said, pulling out a cigarillo from his pocket and cut the end off only to have it snatched away by Integra.

"Thanks," she replied as Isaak sighed and looked at his empty fingers.

"Don't mention it," he grumbled, pulling out another one for himself.

"Hey, Caterina, where are you heading off to?" Abel asked as the Cardinal started to leave.

"After the Major," Caterina said, turning her head to look over her shoulder to look at him.

"Seras has it under control," Abel said, but Caterina shook her head. "You don't think so?"

"Just to be on the safe side," Caterina said, starting to walk away again.

"Caterina, let me go with you," Integra said, catching up with her. "It was our duty to kill him and we missed that first chance."

"You have no complaints from me," Caterina said as both women walked off.

"Is it me or are they hiding something?" Seth mused, looking up at Abel.

"I don't know," Abel shrugged. "But we need to get moving ourselves."

"True enough," Isaak nodded.

(Somewhere in the London sewers)

A cubby short man walked down the slimy tunnels of the sewers. To his right was a tall silent man; well built and constantly on alert. They were forced into the sewers. Not the most glamorous getaway.

"So ve are forced to run down here," the Major growled. "Damn zem all. So, vhat if zey have won zis battle as along as I'm around zey haven'ts von zis var!"

"That's quite far enough, Major," a woman said, crawling out of a large pipe, and held up a small gun. "It's over! Just give up!"

"So, ve met again. Ve should really stop meeting like zis," the Major snorted.

"Oh, intend to make sure of that," Seras growled, baring her fangs.

"Captain, please gets rid of zis little piece of trash for me," the Major smirked as the Captain took a step forward.

"Oh, really?" Seras replied. "Funny, I seem to be staring at some garbage right now myself. Time to take it out for good."

"Tch, kill her," the Major yelled as the Captain started running towards her.

Seras jumped out of the way just as his fist came at her head. She landed farther down the tunnel with a smug smirk on her face. The Captain just snorted at her. Why was she so smug now? It's not like that little gun was going to much damage to him.

"C-Captain!" the Major yelled his voice sound strained.

The werewolf captain turned around to see his boss in the arms of a man he had never seen before. He had the Major in a headlock. He growled at the new enemy.

"What are you going to do now?" Seras mocked, walking towards the Captain. "Because it's checkmate and we've won!"

"Not y-yet," the Major chocked out as a gun slipped out from under his sleeve and place the gun under Guderian's chin.

"GUDERIAN!!" Seras yelled.

He pulled the trigger just as Guderian jumped back, avoiding the bullet. That was close. The Major grunted and pointed the gun at Guderian yet again but the chubby man wasn't getting another chance.

The next thing he knew a large was holding down the ground and set of massive jaws were in his face. The Captain stood there in shock as Seras laughed.

"I say we've evened the odds, Captain," Seras said with cocky smile. "Guderian, do it now!"

Guderian opened his massive jaws ready to rip off the Major's head only to get head-butted by the transformed Captain. The Major rolled over on his belly and pushed himself up as he turned to watch his captain and the other werewolf fight it out down in the sewers.

"I've gots to gets outs of here," the Major said, getting to his feet and ran down another pipe.

"Not so fast," Seras shouted, hurrying after him.

By the time she got to the end of the tunnel it branched off into four different other pipes and the echo was horrible. She couldn't tell which one he had gone down. One of them had to the right one. She needed to concentrate and figure out just which one to go down. She closed her eyes and slowly blocked out the noise from the fighting behind her. She remembered what her master had said about the 3rd eye. Perhaps it could see where he was.

In a blur it was like she was looking down all four pipes at once. In the third pipe there he was running as fast as his short legs could carry him. She snapped opened her eyes and took off down the third pipe after him to end it once and for all.

(Above with Caterina and Integra)

They had been searching for some sort of sign of Seras or the Major but found nothing. It was quiet in that area. The sounds of war were distant and echoing like a storm off in the distance. Caterina took a moment to sit down on an uprooted tree to get off her feet. She most certainly wasn't use to running around like this. It was true she was the one to stay behind the desk and let the others do her dirty work. She never really had any field action before. She had no need for that kind of training. Now she wished she had.

"Caterina?" Integra said, turning to look at the cardinal. "I've been meaning to talk to you. Now seems to be a good time."

"Talk to me about what?" Caterina said, looking up at Integra.

"About what Alucard said. We've been avoiding each other until now because of it," Integra said as Caterina went wide-eyed for second before casting her eyes down.

"Oh, yes, that…" Caterina said in a hushed voice.

"You know Alucard wouldn't make a joke about that. He may be a wild one but he still has some manners," Integra sighed. "It's almost like history repeated itself. The more we compared our stories the more in common we had."

"Yes, I noticed that too. It just that… The odds of me being…," Caterina trailed off. "

"I can see it quite clearly," Integra said sitting beside the duchess. "You maybe from the distant future but the more I was around you the more I saw myself reflected in you. You've even eared the name 'Woman of Steel' as well, so…"

"Yes, I've been told I can be quite cruel when I want to be," Caterina grinned slightly.

Moment later something moved under the rubble in front of them. They turned to look at something push the debris out of the way. They got to their feet and took aim and the figure crawled out the whole in the ground.

Caterina got off the first shot to the person, hitting him in the leg, blowing clean off. He hit the ground about 8 feet in front of them. Their eyes widened when they realized who it was. The Major was rolling on the ground trying to keep moving. The women quickly hurried over to him and aimed their guns.

"Look what fell into our laps," Integra laughed as the Major looked up at them. "A chubby little major. How convenient for us."

"So zis is how its ends?" the Major groaned, turning his head away from them.

He looked at his gun, which had landed a ways away from him when he collapsed. So, that was it, huh? They were going to kill him. So his fun game had come to close. Even he should die here he enjoyed every moment of it but he still wasn't finished. He reached out and grabbed Caterina's ankle and pulled her the ground before taking away her gun and pointed right at her head.

"I wouldn'ts try anyzing, Hellsing," The Major grinned, keeping the up against Caterina's head. "I'll blow her head off."

"Let her go!" Seras yelled, climbing out of the same hole the Major just crawled out of. "Let her go this instant!"

"You don't have a snowball's chance in hell anymore, Major," Integra snapped at him. "Let Caterina go!"

"Oh, buts vhere vould ze fun be in zat? Lets me tell you somezing… Do you know vhy I started zis var? You don'ts know do you?" the Major grinned, tightening his grip on Caterina. "Vell, lets me enlighten you. I started zis var just for one reason. Zat being zat I justs love var. I had no real reason ozer zan to fight und kill. Everyzing about var makes me so happy I could sing. I just vanted un unending var vith ze vorld."

"Sick bastard," Caterina chocked out.

"Be quiets, my dear Duchess," the Major snarled at her.

"Sick bastard is right. All of this is just simply because you love war?" Seras hissed, taking aim at him from behind.

"Buts of course, Draculina," the Major grinned, turning to look at Seras. "I have no ozer motive."

"I've had enough of you," Integra yelled. "It ends NOW!!"

"Yes, its does!" the Major laughed, pulling the trigger.

BAAANG!!

"AAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!"

"CATERINA!!"

A body hit the ground with a loud thump and the one standing had a look of total surprise on their face as did Integra and Seras. Integra slowly lowered her smoking gun as she looked at the lone standing figure.

"M-my gun was empty," Caterina said weakly, looking at Seras.

Relieved laughter was heard from Integra and Seras both. They slowly looked back down at the Major and their eyes widened at the tattered body. The Major was…

"A cyborg?" Caterina gasped, looking down at the Major as she backed away.

"Are you surprised, Fraulein?" The Major said, looking up at her. "I took parts in Vorld Var II. I'm vell into my 80s by now und I'm clearly nots a wampire."

"Yes, I see it now," Integra said, walking up to him. "The sad disgusting thing that you are."

"Yes, I am. So, if you're going to kill me zen hurry up und do so," the Major grinned up at Integra.

"So, be it!" Integra pulled the trigger.

The bullet made contact with his head and that was that. His miserable existence had ended. Oddly enough he was smiling up at her. Apparently he had no regrets of what he had done. Integra let out a sigh as she reached for her radio.

"Attention everyone. The Major is dead. I repeat the Major is dead," Integra said over the speakers.

"We understand and it took you guys long enough," Abel said over the speaker.

"We'll meet up with you shortly," Integra said, looking at Seras and Caterina. "Let's go."

"Understood," Caterina and Seras nodded.

Abel looked up at the lodged Hindenburg II and cocked his head to one side. The Major was dead but his zeppelin still remained lodged between the buildings. Alucard stood beside him with a big grin on his face.

"Hey, Alucard, quick question," Abel said, looking to his side. "What was the cause of the first Hindenburg disaster?"

"No one really knows…" Alucard replied. "Ah, I see so you have an idea."

"Yes, you could say that. Some theories say that the Hindenburg was sabotaged and others say it was lightning that brought it down."

"Well, the original did pass through a storm," Alucard grinned, "and think I see few clouds starting to gather now."

"Exactly," Abel said, lifting up his scythe at the large airship as it spark violently. "Lightning it is then."

The Hindenburg II went up in a mass of flames and slowly broke free from the buildings and crashed to the ground below. Abel, Alucard, and those around them watched as the airship burned to chard wreckage. Cheers were heard over the roar of the fire. Finally it was over. All that was left was to clean up the scum that was still hanging around. It was going to be a long clean up it was over.

(One Month Later New Human Empire)

Reconstruction of the Empire was slow but coming as was Albion and Rome. One month ago they were in the grip of war and now all that remained were grim reminders of what had conspired. There was a welcomed peace all around the world.

Things were slowly getting back on tray and lives were starting over. One such case was Sister Kate Scott. Her comatose body was brought into the labs of the New Human Empire. The hologram had no idea what the Professor was doing with her. She started chew him about but he ignored her as he and a few lab assistances worked on something.

"William, for the last time what are you doing?! Stop ignoring me! PROFESSOR!!" Kate yelled. "Oh, you're making me mad now! William!"

"Shut it down," William turning to an assistant.

"Yes, sir," the assistant said, walking over to the receiver to Kate's hologram.

"William, what are you doing?! Don't you dare! Will—"

"It's nice and quite in here now," William sighed. "How long until the program is updated?"

"We're already at 56 percent," another assistant said.

"The new receiver, is it installed?" William said, looking at another assistant.

"Receiver is fully installed."

"Program updated at 100 percent, sir."

"Perfect. Starting transfer," William said, pulling a cover off an automated doll, and pushed a button. "Let's see how Kate likes this. I got one look at this automation and couldn't pass this up."

"Let's just hope she's not too mad at you," an assistant said, getting the others to laugh.

"We can only hope," William said. "Transfer is almost complete. Good her fingers are twitching. Not much longer now."

Less than a minute later a pair of blue eyes opened slowly and took in area. They quickly fell on William and narrowed.

"Didn't mean to keep in the dark, Kate, but I just wanted to surprise you," William said, running a hand through his hair.

"Surprise me? Surprise me with what?" Kate snapped.

"Raise your hand," William said as Kate snorted at him.

"Fine," she raised her hand and look down at it, noticing it was solid.

She quickly looked at her other hand finding it the same way. She looked back up at William before looking back down at her body. Her whole body was solid.

"I figured you needed an upgrade. In stead of a hologram you will be transmitting through an automated doll courtesy of the palace's staff," William said, holding his hand out and she reach out to grab it. "Feel like taking it out for a test drive, Sister Kate?"

Abel stood in front of a large marble mausoleum. The funeral was held several weeks ago but it was still fresh in his mind. Guilt still hung heavily on his heart. There was not second chance like he had. This time what's gone is gone and wasn't ever coming back. He heard someone walk up behind him, before they wrapped their small arms around his middle and squeezed a little.

"Brother, if stay here you're going to be late," Seth said, resting her head on Abel's back. "Hellsing and the others are going to leaving soon. Not only that but we've got a double wedding to attend as well. I never would have pegged Asta and Virgil together."

"Seth, are you mad at me about brother's…"

The child empress paused and looked up at her older brother.

"No. I'm not mad at you or at anyone. You lost control. What killed your brother wasn't you."

"But it was my hands that ripped out his heart!" Abel said, tightening his hands into fists.

"Sigh… Only in body not in soul. Abel, come. You need to look your best. After all you're the one giving out marriage vows this evening," Seth said, loosing his hand and wrapped her fingers in his. "We don't want a run away priest on our hands. Let's go, Abel. Everyone's waiting for you."

"You may kiss the brides," Abel said, snapping his book shut, watching Ion kiss Esther and Virgil kiss Asta. "I would like to present Mr. and Mrs. Fortuna and Mr. and Mrs. Walsh."

There was a loud cheer from everyone in the grand ballroom of the palace. It was the only room big enough to house so many people. It was grand wedding indeed to be sure. Mirka was crying her eyes out that little grandson had gotten married and Vanessa was cheering her heart for her brother.

Once the newly weds left the grand ballroom everyone stood ready for the reception but after the reception Hellsing and her party will return to their era for good this time.

Abel needed some air and he needed to get out those heavy vestments. It would be the last time he'll ever wear them. He made up his mind after this that he would stay in the Empire with his little sister. He knew Caterina wanted him to go back to Rome with her but for now considering what happened… It was best he stayed here. Besides he didn't look exactly human anymore. He could no longer hide the fangs or talons. His blacked lips and black ringed eyes didn't help either. Not to mention he had developed a much stronger thirst. It was just best if he stayed here.

After he had changed into the cloths of empire nobility he headed to the gardens where the party was being held. He felt good about this party. Like nothing could go wrong. As he continued he heard voices in alcove not far from the gardens. He dismissed as some servants but paused when recognized the voices. It was Hugue and Integra. He started towards them only to be pulled to the side by someone and a hand put over his mouth.

"Shhh, don't let them know we're here," Alucard said, letting go of Abel's mouth.

"Are you spying on them?" Abel asked only to Alucard's hand back over his mouth.

"Just listen," Alucard said as they edged a little closer.

Integra leaned up against a tall column and Hugue stood in front of her. This would be the last time they would see each other. They were leaving at dawn. She might as well tell him. It has been a little over month now. This would be her last chance. He should know after all.

"Hugue, the reason I brought you away from the party wasn't just so I could say good bye to you," Integra said, looking at him for a moment before casting her eyes down. "It's about that night a little over a month ago just before we returned to the past."

"Are you regretting it, then?" he asked and she let out long sigh.

"No, I'm not regretting what we did that night but you should know this," Integra said in a low voice. "I believe Alucard already knew but remained quiet about it. He doesn't like you—at all."

"Yes, I got that feeling when I woke up two nights ago with bugs in my sheets," Hugue grumbled and Integra looked horrified. "And before that I was hanging up side down from the canopy of my bed."

"Oh, good Lord," Integra groaned, shaking her head. "Uh, listen… Back on subject. What I'm trying to say is that… I-I'm…Well, I'm…"

"You're what?"

"I'm… I'm late…"

"'Late?' For what?"

"Noooo… I'm LATE."

"Late for—oh, good God!"

"Yes."

"You mean you're… With yours and mine…"

"Yeees."

"You mean that you're really…"

"Yes."

THUD!

"Well, who know you'd take the news so well," Integra sighed, look at the grounded, out cold Hugue.

Abel just looked on shock as Integra tried to Hugue to wake back up. The crusnik turned to Alucard. Alucard didn't look too happy about this but Abel did get the feeling that he had accepted it.

"So, there's going to some little feet running around the manor, huh?" Abel said as Alucard grunted.

"Can't be helped. The bloodline had to be carried on somehow," Alucard sighed. "I'm sure you remember General Heling, don't you?"

"How could I forget him? Wait… You don't mean…"

"Great-grandson. Another thing, you may want to ask Caterina what her little secret was with Integra. It would be best to hear it from her mouth than mine," Alucard turned and started for the party. "Come, Prince of the New Human Empire. The night is still young and I intend to enjoy it here for one last night."

Abel nodded after adjusting his blue imperial clothing. That's right. Seth made him crown prince. This was going to a handful but he could handle it. He followed after Alucard and straight to the party.

He spotted Caterina and quickly made his way over to her. She stood and bowed to him and he did the same to her.

"Prince Abel," she said with a smile.

"Cardinal Caterina, may I have the honor of this dance?" he said taking her hand into his.

"Most certainly," she flushed as he guided her to the dance floor. "You look good tonight, Abel."

"So do you, Caterina," Abel said, putting her into a spin. "By the way what was this secret between you and Integra? Alucard said something about but…"

"Later, Abel, later…" Caterina said, putting a finger on his lips. "Let's just dance."

"Yes, of course," Abel said, resting his head on hers. "Whatever you say. My master."

THE END!!!!!

(A/N Tell me what you think. I worked hard on this ending. Lord knows just how hard I did. Please review. I would make me feel happy. Thank you.)
