Chapter 10

Demir and Aiesha were still at their worshipping
place with the two victims they'd chosen. Demir took the woman
and fed upon her while Aiesha did the same with the man. After
the two vampires had taken their fill, they bit into their own
wrists and fed their victims of their own blood.

"They will serve us well. We will send them
out into the city to make others to aid in our cause. They shall
be both servants and witnessess to Lilith's awakening. In the
mean time, we shall go and see if this woman, Integra is indeed
the one who's blood shall bring our dark mother back to us."
Demir said.

##################################

Integra sat at her desk as Walter knocked at her
door. "Yes Walter." She said.

"The minister is here to bless the mansion
sir." Walter answered.

"Very well. He may bless my office first.
That will give Alucard and Seras enough time to return to the
mansion. Tell him to leave the lower levels alone or those two
won't be able to return to their chambers." Integra
instructed.

"As you wish Sir Integra." Walter said
and led the minister into Integra's office. She bowed her head as
a gesture of respect. Walter took his place by Integra's side as
the minister began his work.

"God of Heaven, let this room be blessed
with thy grace. Protect Sir Integra, thy righteous servant from
the forces of darkness. Give her the strength to resist all
temptation. Let no evil thing enter this room. Let it be shielded
from all impure things." The minister prayed.

##################################

Demir and Aiesha stood outside the grounds of
Hellsing manor. They could sense the minister inside placing holy
barriers within. "The foolish minister cannot keep her safe
forever with his worthless prayers. Soon the blessings will have
to be revoked if she is to meet with her vampiric pets."
Demir said.

"YOU won't be around when that
happens." An angry voice snarled.

Demir and Aiesha turned around suddenly. There
stood Alucard and Seras. They're eyes full of nothing but utter
contempt and malice. Demir only replied with an icy smile showing
his elongated fangs. That smile mocked the rage that burned
within his enemies.

"You have caused my master enough trouble.
It's time you two rejects were dealt with." Alucard warned.

"Bold words coming from a vampire who has
become a human's bitch." Aiesha sneered.

"Alucard is the hound of Hellsing. So
technically, that makes ME the bitch." Seras growled baring
her fangs.

"That must be the reason for your insulent
attitude. Or perhaps you spend too much time on all fours."
Demir chided.

"Enough!" Alucard yelled unholstering
his guns. "You dare insult both my master and my mate!"

"Such a pitiful excuse for a creature of the
night. You must rely on the weapons of man instead of your own
powers." Aiesha jeered.

"I learned how to deal with that a long time
ago." Alucard snarled as he aimed his Jackul at Aiesha's
heart.

"Such uncivilized weapons you use. I'm
suprised you're not using a sword. You don't even use your true
name. Perhaps the son of Dracul has forgotten who he really
is." Demir refuted.

"You are one to talk...Celik." Alucard
growled. "Yes, I know exactly who you are. You may have
hidden your condition from me, but you cannot cloak the memories
I still have of you. And just so you know, these guns happen to
suit my personality quite well. Besides, scum like yourselves are
not worth the effort of a sword. I'd rather just blow you both to
hell and be done with it."

"You seem to forget something Vlad. This is
not Romania. You have no control over this domain." Demir
replied arrogantly.

"We're not in Turkey either Celik. You have
as much control over this country as I do." Alucard said
with an equally defiant tone.

"That will soon change." Aiesha
proclaimed.

"Not if my mate and I have anything to say
about it." Alucard warned and fired a single shot from his
gun. Demir however, suprised both Alucard and Seras when he
quickly unsheathed a sword and used it to deflect the bullet as
if it were a baseball being hit by a bat.

Alucard recovered from his shock quickly enough
to dodge the bullet heading right for him. "You're going to
have to do better than that to get rid of me." Alucard
sneered.

"You think so? That was just a teaser
compared to what I have planned for you and your human
master." Demir said coldly.

"You cannot harm my master. As we stand here
now a priest is putting up shields around her. They may prevent
me from getting close enough to protect her, but they prevent you
from getting close to her as well." Alucard replied.

"There is something you did not count on.
Aiesha and I don't have to be physically near the woman to take
her. She believes she is protected by God. But the priest on the
other hand is not as strong in his faith as he believes. Sin,
even when only in the mind is still sin." Demir said with an
evil laugh.

Alucard's eyes widened when he realized what
Demir was about to do.

##################################

The priest was about to leave Integra's office.
As he was about to open the door to exit he suddenly stopped. He
could not physically move for a moment. Integra and Walter looked
at the minister.

"Minister, are you all right?" Integra
asked.

"Your will is mine. Your faith in your
God is weak. You will do as I command and call me master." The
priest heard in his head.

The minister turned around and faced Integra. She
and Walter looked at each other for a moment.

"Sir, are you all right?" Walter asked
firmly.

"Renounce your God! Embrace the dark
mother as your mistress!" Demir commanded.

The priest grit his teeth trying not to let the
words escape his lips. His eyes widened as the internal struggle
began.

"Revoke the blessing. Renounce your
maker, and be reborn as one of us!"

"You will NOT speak!" Another
voice entered the minster's head.

"Revoke that blessing and holy man or
not, I will kill you myself!" It was Alucard. He now
fought for control of the minister's will.

"Do not speak! Do not listen to this
spawn of the devil! Keep the blessing in place!" He
ordered.

"You are not to listen to him! He is
weak! I am your master! Revoke the blessing!" Demir
hissed.

##################################

Alucard and Demir stood outside the Hellsing
grounds locked in a struggle for control of the mininster and
ultimately Integra's fate. Both of them focused so intently that
neither saw what was about to happen next. Seras was focused upon
Alucard. She did not see Aiesha spring from her place beside
Demir. The older vampiress landed behind Seras and grabbed her
hair. She violently slammed Seras to the ground.

"Get your hands off me you bitch!"
Seras yelled. She reached back and dug her claws into Aiesha's
head. Aiesha screamed in pain and let Seras go. Seras then struck
back by giving Aiesha a swift side kick to her ribs. The
commotion broke Alucard's concentration. Just the moment Demir
was waiting for.

##################################

"Your God has forsaken you! Your
thoughts are as impure as your soul. Renounce the light and
embrace the darkness!" Demir commanded in the mind of
the minister.

Integra and Walter realized something was not
right by the expression on the holy man's face. The minister now
under the control of Demir ripped the cross lapel he wore from
his clothes and threw it to the floor. With a crazed look in his
eye he proceeded to stomp it into the floor.

"What are you doing!" Integra shouted.

"I revoke the blessing! I give myself to the
darkness!" The minister yelled with insane laughter.
"Lilith will rule the world!" He cackled.

##################################

Now with the holy shields removed Demir was free
to enter the Hellsing mansion. It was too late when Alucard
realized Aiesha attacked Seras to distract him from his mental
war with Demir. In the blink of an eye he turned away from Demir
for one second and his foe vanished.

"I can take care of myself! Protect Sir
Integra!" Seras shouted as she continued to tangle with
Aiesha. Alucard took to the air to reach Integra's office. He
phazed through the wall only to find Walter unconcious on the
floor and Integra in Demir's grasp. He held her easily by her
hair with one hand and restrained her wrists with the other.
Alucard glared with hellish rage in his eyes.

"Release her and maybe I'll think about
giving you a quick death." He snarled.

"Make one move and the woman will die."
Demir warned.

"You kill her and you kill the only chance
of bringing your harlot mistress back into this world."
Alucard replied.

"You are mistaken. We don't need her body.
We only need her blood to bring the dark mother back to this
world." Demir refuted.

"Besides, your young bride will not last
long against Aiesha. Perhaps the little bitch is already dead.
Perhaps Aiesha and I will have a little fun with her before we
destroy her. You may yet have a chance to save her. But you're
also bound to protect your master. Such a dilema. Women have
always been your downfall Vlad Dracula. It was because of a woman
that you gave your soul to eternal darkness. It was because of a
woman that you ended up a slave to humans. How appropriate that
it will be because of a woman that your pathetic existance will
finally come to an end."

The words only fueled Alucard's rage as he aimed
his Jackul at Demir's head. Demir opened his mouth and bared his
fangs perilously close to Integra's throat. Demir only smiled
coldly as he pressed the points of his canines against his
victim's skin.

"Go ahead. Shoot me. You may destroy me
but you will also kill your master. Perhaps that is what you
want. Her death will mean your freedom. Let's see what kind of a
monster you really are." Demir taunted mentally.

"Perhaps you didn't want me to know.
Perhaps maybe you're seeing this as your ticket to freedom!"
The words from Integra rang in Alucard's mind, the very
words from their heated argument. He gritted his teeth and
lowered his gun. Demir raised his head away from Integra's
throat.

"You truly are pathetic. You could have shot
her and still given her eternal life. Not only will you lose your
master, you've most likely lost your mate as well." Demir
said with a demonic laugh and vanished with Integra still
struggling in his clutches.

"NO!" Alucard roared as he watched his
master disappear with his old enemy.

"What...what happened? What's going on
here?" Asked the confused minister shaking his head. Before
he could utter another word he found himself slammed against the
wall. Alucard sank his fangs into the hapless man's throat. The
vampire's rage needed a victim, and the minister found himself in
the wrong place at the wrong time. Alucard quickly and violently
drained the man letting him fall to the floor as a bloodless
corpse.

His fangs retracted. "I should let you roam
the Earth as a mindless ghoul for betraying my master. But I have
my standards." He growled and fired a single silver bullet
into his victim's heart. He looked to see Walter was still
knocked out. He would have quite the headache in the morning, but
he would live. Alucard vanished from the room and reappeared
where he'd left Seras and Aiesha fighting. His eyes widened in
terror when he found his mate lying motionless upon the ground.
Two gashes marked her throat.

He rushed to her side and quickly gathered her
body into his arms. He saw her eyes were wide open. They were
turning a dull grey and she acted as if gasping for air. Thinking
fast, Alucard jerked the coat and shirt sleeves of his left arm
up to expose the skin. He sank his fangs into his wrist to draw
blood. The fresh blood of the minister would revive Seras. He let
the sanguine fluid drip into Seras's mouth. He waited for a
moment while the blood continued to seep past Seras's lips.

"Come on. Move, do something. Let me know
you're still with me." He said insistently.

Slowly the greyish color in her eyes began to
return to their normal crimson hue. Seras's fangs began to
elongate and she latched her mouth onto Alucard's wrist sucking
greedily at the blood flowing from his self inflicted wound.
Seras continued to feed feeling her strength return. When Alucard
began to feel his own strength begin to wain he told Seras to
stop feeding.

"What happened? Where is Sir Integra?"
Seras asked wiping her mouth.

"Bastard took her. She's still alive. I can
sense it. But he had her in his grasp and threatened to drain her
if I tried to shoot." Alucard answered. "Where's the
bitch?" He asked.

"She got a way. She caught me off guard and
sank her fangs into me." Seras replied.

"What happened to you?" She asked.

"The minister found himself in the wrong
place at the wrong time. Of course he had willingly abandoned his
faith so it's not like I actually killed a holy man."
Alucard answered.

"Come on. We'll take enough ration with us
to put us back to full strength. I know where those two demons
have taken Integra. We have to hurry." Alucard said as he
grabbed Seras by the hand and rushed them both into a portal.

##################################

They hurried to the place where Demir and Aiesha
often came to worship their dark mistress. Alucard and Seras
entered the dwelling only to find the statue of Lilith was no
longer there. Only the empty altar remained. Alucard looked
around desperate to find any sign of Integra. But to his dismay
she was not there.

"Where is she? They would have taken her
here." Seras said looking around trying to sense signs of
life. Alucard's search proved futile. There was no sign of his
master. Yet he could still sense she was alive, but she was not
there.

"CELIK!" He howled with rage.

His only responce was evil laughter echoing
against the walls of the room. "Where is she? What have you
done with her!" Alucard roared.

Aiesha appeared before them smiling coldly. She
was alone. Demir was not at her side. Alucard withdrew his guns
and pointed them straight at her heart.

"Where is my master, whore!" He
thundered.

Aiesha's venomous smile mocked Alucard's rage.
"Come to the abbey, and you will see. You will all
see." She said and vanished as Alucard pumped five rounds
into her fading form. Her laughter rang throughout the building.

"Abbey? What is she talking about?"
Seras asked.

"Abbey...Carfax. Carfax Abbey. That's where
they're holding Integra. That's where they intend to hold the
ceremony." Alucard answered reholstering his guns.

"I didn't think it still stood." Seras
replied.

"Let's go. We don't have time to
waste." Alucard said as the two vampires vanished.
