Do not own! Not mine!
Flora's POV:
I quickly drew the knife, aiming it at the window, before sheathing it again. Even as a novice I could tell I was doing it too slow. I tried again, getting it a little bit faster. "You're getting scary." Pip said, watching me out of the corner of his eye. "Will I be fast enough to kill a vampire?" I said hopefully, and he snorted. "Only if you are very, very lucky." He said, snickering. I sighed, continuing my practice. We stopped, and I peered out, seeing police lights and sirens. I gulped. That probably meant there was some ghouls wandering around with guns out there. We got out and Pip and the others did some badge flashing, while I nervously hopped from one foot to the other. We got cleared and I did as Alucard said and stayed to the back of the others, watching as they shot the ghouls and picking up some tips.
Suddenly, I found myself all alone. "Guys?" I called softly, swallowing hard. No answer, and I heard moans and groans coming all around me, and I whimpered, unable to pinpoint the source because of my fear. I inhaled slowly, closing my eyes. I had a weapon. I wasn't defenseless. I quickly opened them. I also had a ghoul right in front of me, mouth open and gaping. I squeaked and backed away, only to hit the slimy cold chest of another. I drew my knife, jabbing it into the ghoul's chest and spinning to take out the other. I watched in disbelief as they poofed into dust. "They...POOF!?" I squealed, giggling. I was suddenly much more cheerful. Then I realized I was surrounded by more of them. It was only a loose group, and I may have been able to dart away from them, but I remembered that they had a really strong grip, and if they touched me it was probably all over. I giggled. "Come at me bro!" I whispered, remembering a shirt I saw once.
They stumbled forward, and I stabbed them through the eye sockets, which was the easiest to penetrate. I dropped two in front of me before spinning and slashing the chest of the one just behind me, doing nothing but making them back off slightly. I stabbed it through the heart and it poofed into dust. Five minutes later I was running through the forest, panting as a ghoul with a gun stumbled after me slowly. I didn't want to take the chance of it shooting at me if I attacked it, so I just ran. I sheathed my knife, seeing some lights up ahead. Wouldn't do to scare the populace with a knife-wielding teenager. I skidded to a halt, seeing a creepy Goth looking guy slouching by a lamppost. "Took you long enough. I was beginning to think I would have to go after you myself, instead of sending my ghouls." He said causally, flipping his hair. "Excuse me!?" I spat, hand inching towards my knife. "Well, since the exterminators showed up, I might as well have one last meal, and you're the only female for miles." he said, shrugging.
"Besides, a virgin's blood is a rare treat in this modern age. I plan to enjoy you." he drawled, smirking. "You're about to die and all you think about is your food!?" I snarled, gaping at him. His smirk fell. "Little girls should be seen and not heard." he said coyly, and I stuck my tongue out at him. He snapped his fingers and a line of ghouls advanced, some with guns, some without. I backed away as he watched in morbid fascination. "I wouldn't try anything aggressive. They'll shoot." he yawned, looking bored. I gulped, moving away from them. I drew my knife slightly, and a bullet slammed into the pavement a few feet away from me. I quickly sheathed it. My back suddenly hit a flat expanse, and I risked a look over my shoulder to see I had run into a building, with no doors or windows on my side. I quickly looked back as the line of ghouls stopped. "That's good. Hold still." the vampire said, and I edged a little to the right, where I was closer to the open air.
He growled, and suddenly a couple of the ghouls went poof. I glanced up to see Alucard emerge from the shadows under the buildings, reloading his gun. "That trap with your ghouls was quite interesting. Most of the mercenaries are still tied up with it." he said casually, smirking as he said it. The vampire shrugged. "Win some, lose some. You've won some, and I've won some. But we've both lost something." he said and suddenly there was a blur in the air where he was and Alucard was shooting at something I couldn't see, and I started to draw my knife, but suddenly the vampire was lunging for me, and I closed my eyes. There was a yelp, and I opened one to see the vampire still an inch or two away from my face, eyes bulging. I looked down to see my knife embedded in his heart. "Ha! I CAN draw it fast enough!" I said, coughing, but still smiling proudly. There was a slight sting of pain, and I looked at my own body. "Oops." The vampire's hand was deeply embedded in my own chest, and I tasted blood. "Well that's...not fair." I hacked, blacking out.
Alucard's POV:
"Well that's...not fair." she coughed out, a trickle of blood dripping down her face from her scowling mouth. The vampire dissolved, and she collapsed on the ground, blood starting to pour out onto the concrete. I quickly moved towards her, firing absent-mindedly at the ghouls, killing them all. My boots thudded to a stop inches from the widening pool of blood. "Why must you always be so reckless?" I asked her, picking her up and cradling her in my arms. She didn't answer, already unconscious. I sniffed, smelling the appetizing aroma of her sweet virgin blood as it dripped, thoughtlessly being wasted on the hard ground. 'Master? Flora is wounded.' I called in my mind, and Integra sighed. 'I appreciate the warning, but why did you tell me?' I licked my lips. 'I want some blood.' She growled. 'Why don't you ask her?' I groaned in longing as Flora's blood slid to the ground. 'She is unconscious and bleeding heavily. Please master? I won't bite.' She considered this for an agonizing moment. 'Fine.' I cut the link and propped Flora's body up in my arms, bringing her and her blood closer to my mouth. I gently started licking up all the blood that had flowed over her body, avoiding her clothes, and moved the fabric to one side, exposing her skin and the wound.
I leaned against a tree, lapping up the blood around her wound and then closing my mouth on the sweetest spot of all. The flavor of her warm, delicious blood exploded in my mouth as I locked onto her gaping wound. I licked it, forcibly restraining myself from sucking more of that ambrosial liquid out, knowing she needed as much as possible still running through her veins. The wound slowly closed, and I let go with a moan of regret. Her face was pale from blood loss, and I licked my bloody lips, pressing her closer to my body and getting up from the half kneeling, half leaning position I was in and walking back towards the Hellsing vans. The Captain and his men were all alive, sadly, and I tapped a foot, clearing my throat. "Which one of you has medical knowledge?" I said as they all flinched and looked up, gulping when they saw Flora. A man in glasses slowly raised his hand. I walked towards him, dumping Flora onto his lap. "Fix her." I said, phasing away.
Flora's POV:
I blinked, seeing the world around me reduced to a big white blur. I twitched. "I thought the place where people go when they die has noisy obnoxious singing and stuff?" I slurred into the silence, hoping it was not going to start. "Well, I could try singing for you if you wish." Alucard's voice said in amusement, and I breathed out a sigh of relief. "I knew the tar incident would come back to haunt me. Can't hide much from these supernatural people can you? Well, are you going to light me on fire or not?" I said, propping myself on my elbows. He smirked at me. "You seem to have recovered fine." he said, raking me up and down with his red eyes. I yawned, looking down to my chest. "I vaguely remember some creep shoving his hand in my ribcage, mind explaining that to me?" I asked him tartly, tapping a finger on the metal railing of my bed. He smirked. "Thankfully for you, you stabbed his heart and he missed your vital organs. You killed him, I drank some of your blood, the mercenaries all got away alive, it seemed it was quite a successful mission." he said proudly, and I growled. "Skip back to the "drank my blood" bit. You ate me!?" I yelped, and he smirked.
"Only a little, my young master. Does it upset you?" I let my head fall back on the bed. "You could've asked first." I said in annoyance, and he chuckled. "You are truly a strange human. Almost killed by one vampire and fed on by another, and your first concern is me partaking of your blood without permission. Quite remarkable." he snickered, and I made a "come here" motion with my hand. He obediently leaned over me, and I jabbed his eyes. "I am an intelligent life form, not a new virus Mr. Frankenstein, and I do not appreciate being talked to like one." I snapped at him as he winced. "I apologize master." he said, and then grinned. "I could speak to you as a devoted servant if you wish." he said, and I snorted. "First chance I get I'm selling you on EBay. "Tall, creepy, likes to kill things, vampire, good taste in clothing, sadistic, can walk through walls and shoot really damaging pistols, lightly used as he was preowned." They'll snap you up."
He smirked, leaning over me even more "You like my taste in clothes? Would you like to have them?" he asked, and somehow the buttons on his shirt opened, giving me a good, long look at his muscular chest. A heated blush crept into my cheeks. "No stripping." I muttered, closing my eyes and vainly trying to imagine something else. A hand gently pried them open. "Would you like an exchange then?" he purred, and suddenly I was wearing his wide open shirt and he was wearing nothing at all above the waist except for his red coat. I yanked the edges of his shirt together, feeling mortified. "Alucard..." I muttered through gritted teeth. "Yes my master?" he said, grinning. "Go swallow one of your blessed silver bullets." I snarled, as his grin vanished. "And give me my shirt back." I called out as he left, and his shirt suddenly vanished, leaving my with nothing on at all as my old shirt gently landed on my head. "I'm gonna kill him someday..." I moaned.
