Hellsing : Vampire Uprise

Chapter 11: Last Stand

(A/N: I'm sorry this took so long, but with Thanksgiving and everything, I haven't had much free time on my hands. Plus this chapter was difficult to write. But it's here now, so I hope you enjoy it.)

Seras gulped as they approached the church. She really didn't want to go back in there. She didn't think she could handle seeing Integra in that state again. Not to mention there was the freak that drove her insane.

Glancing at her master, Seras wondered if he had once been as twisted and evil as his clone. She knew he had been monstrous in the past, but he changed since then, though he was still undoubtedly sadistic.

'Just remember what he told you' she reminded herself. 'Acting out on your nature is one thing, to do it just for the hell of it is another.'

"You worry too much, Police Girl." He told her.

Seras jumped and blushed. Was he reading her mind again? She hated it when he did that; she felt to exposed. Maybe that was why he did it; he loved pushing peoples' buttons.

"Can we really do this?" she asked uncertainly. This so-called Dracula had managed to overpower the king of vampires. Could her added strength really make that much of a difference?

"You doubt yourself too much, Police Girl." He told her. "You are a vampire. One of my own making. You have power. Now that you've accepted yourself as you are, it's time to behave like a proper vampire."

Seras made a small squeaky noise. "I'll try."

"No. You'll do it."

He kicked open the door. The church was, predictably, empty. But underneath it, through the secret door, body of humans and other dark creatures littered the floor, courteous of Seras in her state of bloodlust.

Alucard gave the mutilated bodies a look of approval. Turning to Seras, he gave her a grin. "An impressive job on taking out your enemies, Police Girl. I applaud your work."

Seras felt her face heat up in embarrassment. "Um, thanks… I think." Was this something to be praised for?

Alucard noticed her discomfort. "Don't forget, Seras, these people would have done the same to you and anyone else for mere sport alone, and they would have dragged it out and made it a lot more painful than you did. Don't pity them."

Seras' eyes narrowed as she remembered what these creeps had planned on doing to her. She kicked a dismembered head with such force that it splattered against the wall.

Alucard smiled. "Good girl. Now lets go."

Feeling more determine, Seras nodded. "Yes, sir."

They continued through the hideout in silence, the only sound coming from the sickening crunch of meat and bone beneath their feet. And soon they came to a large hole in the wall that had once been a door to Junior's so-called thrown room.

Alucard traced his finger over the broken stone. "You made quite an entrance."

Seras bashfully looked down, tapping her index fingers together. "I guess I got a little carried away."

"On the contrary. I'm glad you enjoyed yourself."

They continued into the room and came to the door that led to Integra's prison. Once they entered it, they saw the former Hellsing leader still chained to the floor, looking like she was attempting to ripe open her mouth wider than it allowed. Her cheeks were already ripped open as she pulled on her lower and upper jaws.

Seras made a small noise and looked away. Integra turned to them and let go of her mouth, the rips in her cheeks immediately healing. Her red eyes lit up with excitement and insanity as she crawled across the floor to get as close to them as the chains would allow.
