Angelica slept fairly well for once. She felt somewhat safe but it was not night yet. She went and found a step ladder in the machine shop. She finished the blessing symbols on the ceiling. She felt much better about that.Vampires had different powers and one could not predict their powers. She was just making sure this one couldn't go mist or phase. If it was Vlad the Impaler, Stoker's book said bats and mist but the book was a work of fiction. She highly doubted it was accurate...vampires are arrogant but old ones were smart and cunning.
The young woman then headed to go through the machine shop. She would probably be busy starting batches of ammo. She took the ladder back and placed some more blessing symbols around that were discreet. You can never be too safe.
Completely safe was a lie parents told their frightened children.
Time passed quickly and then she noticed it was dark outside. "Here we go..." she mumbled.
She grabbed some elk jerky and dried fruit, in a bag, and headed to the exercise room. Fighting the combat dummy maybe would calm her nerves. She left her shotgun in the machine shop. Her trademark coat was over her left arm. Never go unprepared.
Angelica set the stuff down next to the combat dummy. She had her guns on with a bullet belt but the leather vest was on the floor. She did some stretches to warm up and then started to box, with marital strikes incorporated in the attacks. She was deep in concentration when a crawl of skin went down her back. She yanked the Desert Eagles in record time and crouched into a defensive position. Her eyes were scanning the room from wall to corner to wall and back. The vampire was here somewhere.
Alucard heard her heart rate beating quickly but she just kept her stance. She should have shaking legs and cramps, in her muscles, from the position she remained in. She was quite still actually, making no sound. He then noticed her squint her eyes and scan the room again.
She paused at the corner he was casting shadows to hide himself. Her aura vision had spotted him, black shadows swirled and concealed him.
'Sigh... Master Vampire extraordinaire... the No Life King,' she thought.
He is already breaking the rules. Though she would have been shocked if he didn't. Predictability can be nice. Angelica let a breath out, in hope of fooling him into a position of weakness. She rose up but walked so her back never turned to him. She holistered one eagle and placed the other on the table.
"Master-elder vampire I can sense you but I know I have no right to demand you to appear for me. So I am asking, please," She spoke low and polite. She did not expect the No Life King to appear, he was a vampire.
Why would he listen to a mere walking meal?
A large toothy smile crossed his face. "Master-Elder? A polite human who understands her place in the order of things."
Angelica took her dual weapon gun harness off and set it on the table. The second Desert was holistered. She started a light step and boxing the air. Alucard, raised an eyebrow. As she rolled her neck loose, her body gracefully swayed. Angel wore leather pants, low cut on her hips. There were Egyptian style tattoos, just above her waist band of the pants. There were also tribal tattoos, like her upper arm bracelets.
Then there were two belts. One had bullets but the other was a large silver beaded rosary with an Ankh on the end. That was unusual, not Christian? And what is it with the tattoos?
He knew the ones above her hips were Egyptian but what were the others? He wanted to take his fingers and trace the patterns...
Angelica then started a series of martial art moves. She did kicks and strikes in fast succession. Alucard had no idea about the martial arts moves and how well her form was. He saw how her muscles rippled and flowed. Her body moved fast, delivering accurate hits on the dummy. Her breasts were just the right size for her.
