I don't own Hellsing, and I'm not making any money from this.
Maybe if she hadn't stopped the car to get petrol, J.J. Wouldn't have been ripped in half and they would have made it home.
Maybe if she hadn't been worried about making Chris more upset than he was, she wouldn't been wearing the damn skirt that kept her from running as fast as she normally could.
Maybe if she had taken Edmund up on his offer to teach her how to hot wire a car when they were teenagers, she would have been able to steal one instead of cowering while the door was ripped off, and then being dragged out and across the parking lot by the hair.
Maybe if she had practiced more with Lasher, she would have been able to land a shot on the target that moved too damn fast for her to hit, and she wouldn't have had to watch her gun crumpled like paper in the monster's hand.
Lasher...
Maybe if she hadn't been jealous about Alucard flirting with other women and actually listened to him, he would have been there and none of this would have happened.
Oh god, I'm so stupid...
"So you're the one they used." her attacker said, pulling her head up by the chin. "The very same eyes." he smiled cruelly. "We are going to become very well acquainted, you and I."
The inky black hair had more curl to it, and the face had a more delicate, slightly feminine structure. Alucard's eyes were a sanguine crimson, and Radu's were like liquid gold. But the familial resemblance was unmistakable. Syn wheezed, trying to blink past the pain of several broken ribs where she had already become 'well acquainted' with his foot.
"Fuck you."
Those gold eyes danced in amusement. "Oh yes, but not the way you imagine." he told her, one of his elegantly structured hands drifting down to grab her necklace. "My brother has always had an unusual fondness for spirited women."
With a quick jerk, the necklace carrying Alucard's bullet she had once been shot with was ripped from her neck. Then, while she kicked and screamed and spat at him in fury, the bastard pulled off her ring.
"Oh, how precious." he cooed when he glanced at the inscription inside of it. "He calls you his queen. A lofty title for a human whore." he slipped both the ring and the necklace into one of his pockets for safekeeping while his other arm kept her pinned to the floor. "Now then, they tell me you are a maker of weapons. A great artisan of your craft. It would be a pity for such a person to lose the use of their hands, yes?"
Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit. Syn didn't know what to do. Her only weapon was gone, and Radu was too strong to fight. There was no way to twist out of his iron grip to search for something she could beat him over the head with. It might not have done her any good anyway. But Alucard had taught her how to jump. She could use their connection to get to him. Find the soul fragment within and... ohmygodmakeitstopmakeitstop!
The vampire was meticulously breaking each one of her fingers. He began with the right, and Syn had only a moment to regain control of her breathing before he moved to the left. Then the bastard decided that she had lovely ears, and he simply had to take one of them as a prize. Her head was jerked to the side, and a knife bit into the flesh of her right ear. Syn howled between clenched teeth and kicked out – landing a solid hit right in a very sensitive spot. Radu fell back with a pained growl and she took advantage of the opening to scuttle away. Something warm, wet, and sticky poured down the side of her face. Was that blood? How much of her ear was gone? Broken fingers and shattered ribs made it hard to crawl, but maybe she could get to the door. She didn't know what the hell she was going to do once she got outside, but maybe a car would come by. Maybe she could bless the door so Radu couldn't get out. Maybe...
Too many maybes and not enough time.
The breath whooshed from her lungs when her head was jerked back by a handful of hair.
"You are more trouble than you're worth, human!" He snarled, then slammed her face back down on the linoleum.
It wasn't enough to knock her unconscious, but stars shot before her eyes and she momentarily forgot that she was capable of movement. She heard a harsh voice right next to her wounded ear.
"I will break you, and I will hear you beg for mercy."
Oh no. No. Alucard was the only creature on this earth capable of making her beg. No one else was getting that. No one.
Unable to move, she lay there, too weak and in too much pain to do anything while she was dragged up onto her knees. She felt her clothes ripped by claws.
Why did I wear a skirt again? Oh... right. Chris made more money when the girls dressed up like...
Her thoughts froze when she felt the knife.
No... not like this. Please God, not like this. I will not beg, I will not beg, I will not beg.
When the blade sank into her flesh and began to cut, Syn started screaming.
The Hellsing manor was quiet in the early morning hours, and the No Life King was lightly dozing in his chair down in the dungeons. It was a light sleep. The sort of thing that didn't allow for any sort of dreaming. It was a good thing, not dreaming. The few he had were never pleasant.
"Mr. Scary Man, Mr. Scary Man! You's needs to wake up!"
Alucard frowned with his eyes closed. What the hell was Syn's gun spirit doing? The last thing he needed was that annoying thing flitting around his head.
"Go away." he muttered, waving his hand near his head to shoo it away.
"MR SCARY MAN!" the spirit shouted again, then wailed in despair. "Jackal! He wont listen to the Lasher! Do something!"
An older male voice snorted. "Amateur. Get out of the way and let a pro show you how it's done. Hand me the willis pipe!"
Alucard came awake with an angry snarl when something heavy and metal slammed on top of his head.
"Get your vampire ass up right goddamn now!"
The vampire came out of his chair, guns drawn, fully intent on blowing whatever had woken him up to pieces. But he went still and blinked when he saw his surroundings. This wasn't the dungeons. This was... unreal. Pale, neon green grass, a pink sky with a happy, dancing sun, and... was that Bruce Willis?
"Welcome to fairy spirit land, willis." the Bruce Willis clone announced. "We have a willis code red situation! Damsel in serious willis distress!"
He felt something tugging on him, and he looked down to find Syn's, young, black haired spirit wrapped around his leg with tears streaming down his face.
"Monster broke Lasher's gun, and he can't do nothing! Monster is doing bad things to Mistress!
With sharp, pointy things!"
That got the vampire's attention. Lasher only called Syn his mistress. But wha...
"You need to wake your willis ass up and save your willis woman!" The other spirit, his Jackal apparently, yelled at him. "Right now, willis!"
Alucard's eyes snapped open and he was back in his chair in his rooms. Fully awake, he heard Syn for the first time. Screams of agony echoed through his mind, and when he looked through her eyes, he saw blood, Radu with a knife, and he was...
The No Life King let out a bellow of pure fury and shot through the door.
Police Girl!
Seras nearly fell off the sofa at the sound of her master's enraged voice inside her head. When she and Pip had gotten back from their date, they had curled up on the sitting room sofa to watch a movie. The film itself was still playing, but both of them must have dozed off at some point. She grabbed Bernadette by the shoulders and shook him awake.
"Get up! Something's wrong!"
Pip bolted upright and looked around with a bleary eye. " 'uh? What'z wrong?"
"I don't know, but Master is pissed." The police girl paused and tried to focus on him. Alucard wasn't talking to her, but she got a mental image of what was going through his mind. She gasped in shock.
"It's Syn! We've got to go now!"
A funny thing happens when you're tortured to the point of death. When the body is pushed beyond it's limits, the mind protects itself. On one level, you're still aware of what's happening to you. You still see, hear, and feel everything. But on another level, your mind goes to another place where it can watch from a distance and be safe from the carnage. And when you're in that place, you start thinking about the strangest things. The simple, important things you don't really pay attention to, but probably should.
That's where Syn found herself. Floating in the mists of her own mind, surrounded by memories and thinking of the things she would probably never see again. Seras had gone on her first date with Pip. She wasn't going to have the opportunity to tease the girl into revealing all the gritty details. She wasn't going to be able to finish that gun Edmund wanted for Integra. She would never see the look on the knight's face when she saw it for the first time.
And Alucard... she would never again hear his beautiful laugh when she called him an evil bastard. And she wasn't going to hear him tell her how beautiful she was when she was angry anymore...
So this is what dying feels like. Huh.
She was only half aware of when the torture stopped, and vaguely registered her head being pulled back to expose her throat. How ironic was that? After all this, the bastard was going to bite her now? That was strangely funny. When Radu's fangs sank into her throat, she started laughing.
Yes, drink. Drink every last drop. Enjoy it. Then choke on it.
But apparently Radu was smart enough to realize when something was dangerous. He jerked away from her with a hiss before taking enough blood to kill him.
"This is... what are you, woman?"
In her half-dead, delirious state of mind, Syn looked up at him and wiggled her broken fingers. "Surprise."
Ooh, that pissed him off. He ripped, kicked, and howled at her in anger. She didn't show it on the outside, but inside, she was laughing at him. He acted so upset about not knowing what she was. Maybe he had expected her to tell him? Oh, Mr. Big, bad scary vampire, sir? Before you start cutting pieces out of me with your pretty knife, I just thought you should know that I'm poisonous, so no biting, okay?
A swirling mass of shadows appeared out of nowhere and knocked Radu off of her. Was that Alucard? Oh goodie! She had made Radu sick, and now Alucard was going to whip his ass. She listened to the commotion of the two of them trying to rip each other apart. Yep, that was definitely her vampire. Her most favoritest vampire in the whole wide world. She'd recognize that sexy snarl anywhere.
"Oh my god, there's so much blood... Syn? Syn! Talk to me! I need you to stay awake!"
Big blue eyes and spiky blonde hair appeared above her as someone lifted her head from the floor. Why did she sound so panicked? Everything was fine. She wasn't even cold anymore.
"Hi Seras." Syn mumbled, admiring how pretty the girl's hair was. "Your hair looks like sunshine..."
Those were the last words the redhead managed to get out before her head slumped back.
"Jesus! Get zhe medic over 'ere!"
The medical team got Syn's battered form onto a stretcher and raced her back to the manor, leaving Alucard behind to deal with whatever had done this to her. Seras and Pip hadn't even bothered to change clothes before they left the house. They rode in the back of the truck looking like they had taken a bath in the woman's blood.
When they arrived at the house's medical wing, Integra came marching in with Walter at her side. Someone must have just woken her up because she was still in pajamas and slippers, a white robe tied tightly about her waist. She took in the state of the Captain and the Police Girl's clothes.
"What happened?"
"I don't know, Sir." Seras said, her eyes glistening with tears she was trying to hold back. "There was so much blood..."
The knight whirled on Bernadette. "You were supposed to send a bodyguard with her!"
"I did! 'e waz ripped een 'alf!"
Edmund came running in, looking like he had thrown on clothes and hadn't bothered with much else.
"I just got here, I..." he skidded to a halt when he saw all the blood. "No. Don't you dare tell me she's dead."
All of them rushed to the observation room to watch through the two-way glass as the doctors and nurses worked. Transfusions were started. Major arteries and veins had to be sewn up. The pressure and fluid had to be taken off of a collapsed lung. But Syn's blood pressure kept dropping, and her heartbeat grew weaker and weaker. When the monitors flat-lined, they frantically tried to get it beating again. They did CPR, used the paddles, kept turning up the voltage... hoping that something would work.
But they couldn't bring her back.
When the main surgeon looked up and shook his head, Integra never looked away from the glass. She simply drew a deep breath and reached over to squeeze Edmund's hand. His jaw clenched.
"She's like my sister..." he whispered.
The knight inclined her head without looking at him. "I know."
Alucard showed up just as they were turning off the monitors. He looked through the glass, his eyes blazing with intent, then walked right past them.
"Alucard!" Integra shouted at him. "You can't go in there! Alucard, stop!"
For the first time, the vampire actually ignored her. He strode right through the closed door without acknowledging that she had spoken at all. Inside the operating room, he glared down the doctors.
"Turn it back on." When the staff remained frozen in fear at his appearance, he snarled at them. "I said turn the damn thing back on!"
One of the nurses jumped and flipped the switches on the heart monitors, then quickly got out of the No Life King's way. He went directly to the side of Syn's stretcher and forcefully pressed something into her broken hand. In the observation room, none of them could make out what it was, but there was a small reflection of light – like it was something attached to a chain.
"You remember this." he said in a low voice. "You are too stubborn to die this way. You remember this, and you come back."
Well, I told you guys you would hate me. Next chapter in a couple of days!
