I don't own Hellsing, and I'm not making any money from this.
I'm going to make a confession: I really don't like writing extremely long fight scenes. It's psychologically draining for some reason. Anyway, since there's going to be a lot of fighting from here on out, I'm just giving you warning in advance. I'm doing my best with it, but I still think some of it sucks.
The Major was perched on top of the balloon of the Deux ex Machina, conducting the war orchestra only he could hear. Fires blazed, buildings crumbled, and screams of agony and terror filled the air. It was a sweet, entrancing melody of sounds...
"Herr Major!" The doctor sputtered, from behind him. "You should not be out here! It ist not safe!"
The Major turned and waved a hand at him. "I think ve've gone far beyond the point of staying safe, Doktor. Besides, I can hear the music so much better from here." he paused when he saw two figures step out from the shadows on either side of the doctor. "Ah, Schrodinger! Vhat news do you haff?"
The young cat-boy's ears twitched. "Zorin vas squashed like a bug, Herr Major." he reported with a grin. "Had her face ripped right off."
The portly man smiled. "She should haff known better than to taunt that girl. She ist stronger than she appears. Und Radu?"
"The human girl tortured him und vhen she vas finished, Alucard impaled him."
The Major's brows shot up. "Vhat a pity. I thought he vould be better than that." he waved his hand. "But it ist no matter! Ve haff our new ace, Ja?"
He gestured for the second figure to step forward out of the shadows. It was a young man dressed in black, his dark hair swept back into a ponytail and a monocle over one eye.
"Five decades is a long time to vait, mein butler." the Major said, still smiling. "You haff been most useful, und never faltered from the course! Are you looking forward to the fight you've been vaiting for so long?"
The man didn't say a word, but simply inclined his head.
"Vonderful!" the Major gushed.
He looked back down at the scene being played out below. Integra and her new troop of Iscariot bodyguards had encountered a large group of his vampirized soldiers. The Vatican's military forces had come in on their helicopters to drop in huge masses of white robed priest-soldiers. So they thought to wage a crusade? He thought with a laugh. That Maxwell who led them was calling out orders from a bulletproof glass box suspended from one of the choppers. They fired missiles that left smoke trails that appeared to be winged angels when reflected by the firelight. Not just two, but three armies had gathered together on a single battlefield to wage war with one another. This was better than he could have hoped for.
He watched from above as the young draculina, Seras, suddenly swooped down from the sky and landed in front of Integra. She called up dozens of angular looking shadows to surround and protect her master from the carnage going on all around them. Then Alucard appeared, rushing through the groups of men and slashing through them as he moved. And what was that? In the distance, the Major could see heavily armored trucks resembling small tanks driving through the streets. When rocked by explosions from his Nazis missile launchers, they simply lurched and kept going. How incredibly interesting...
"Herr Major!" the doctor shouted at him again, struggling to be heard over all the noise. "Ve must go back inside!"
His shoulders slumped. "Very vell, Doktor. Be that vay. I haff enjoyed mein symphony, und I can vatch the remainder of our opera from inside."
There were too many of them, Syn thought. The Nazis on their own were bad enough. Now they had the fucking Iscariots showing up with a huge army decked out like bloody KKK members. But it was clear the Vatican forces weren't there to give them assistance. They were shooting at Hellsing too.
She raced through the streets on her bike, picking off the ones she could with her gun. She had to switch back to using one while driving. Pip was running around here somewhere, having fun testing out his new vampire powers. He was turning out to be a bit of a prodigy. He was already doing things it had taken Seras over a year to learn. The redhead caught sight of group of vampires and white robed soldiers huddled close together, fighting.
"Hey guys!" she called out, using her earpiece to communicate with the mercenaries in the trucks. "Big group at 6 o'clock! Use the cannon!"
As she sped past, one of the Grizzlies whipped around, opened it's back doors, and fired a single shot with the rail gun inside. The whole mass of men were blown to kingdom come.
"Hey! I like this thing!" she heard one of the Geese exclaim. "Can I get one for my birthday?"
Syn shook her head and kept going. If they survived this mess, she'd think about it.
Up ahead, she caught sight of Integra surrounded by Seras' shadows. The girl's were more angular and pointed than Alucard's were. The No Life King was ripping through everything he encountered like a madman. She skidded to a halt behind Seras, who was plunging her arm through a vampire that had gotten too close for her liking, and shot down another who had crept up behind.
"Sir Integra!" she shouted. "We can't keep fighting them like this. We're outnumbered."
The knight put a bullet through the head of one of the Vatican soldiers and whipped around to face her.
"I suggest you use that damn magic you demanded Alucard learn, then." she snapped.
Syn blinked. She and Alucard had only worked on summoning up a handful of souls at a time. With all the chaos going on around them, they would need an army of them...
"Sir..." she began, then fired at another target that was approaching. "I don't know if we can call up that many without a full seal release."
The implications of that were staggering. Releasing the seals to give Alucard full control of all his powers was frightening enough. Add to that the fact that summoning up a huge amount of souls could make him crazy and powerful enough to break the seals completely...
Integra studied her for only a second. "You had better be able to hold him back, Miss Newsom." she said in a warning tone, then raised her voice. "ALUCARD!"
The vampire immediately snapped to attention and made an astounding leap towards them. He came to a halt directly in front of the knight.
"Your orders, my master!"
Integra narrowed her eyes. "I want every last one of our enemies bathed in blood, monster! Declare your repatriation! Full seal release to level zero!"
Alucard looked like he was overcome by a wave of pure bliss. "Yessss master..." he turned and lifted his guns, speaking in a low, deadly sounding voice. "The bird of Hermes is my name, eating my wings to make me tame."
It was the same quote from the Ripley Scroll engraved on the lid of his coffin. It was striking that a piece of the instructions for creating a substance that would give eternal life was the very thing used to bind the vampire. The moment those words left his lips, a huge wave of power and energy flooded off of him. Syn momentarily forgot how to breathe.
Our master calls for an army. She heard him growl into her head.
Oh, right. She thought. She had to help him summon up his souls. Feeling the overwhelming sense of power suddenly flooding through his veins made her forget what it was for. She inclined her head and focused.
The redhead knew Alucard held millions of souls within him. He had told her as much before they began working on this. But she had no idea how large the scope of this would be. She thought he would call up the soldiers he had devoured in the past. Thousands, maybe even a few hundred thousand. But the vampire collected far too much energy for that. When he forced it through the connection into her, she fell to her knees from the weight of it. It was... Jesus, no wonder this could drive him insane. She was fighting to retain some sense of herself just holding it. When something wet dripped from her nose, she wiped it away with the back of her hand. Blood. He was pushing so much power into her it gave her a nosebleed. Taking a deep breath, Syn focused on transmuting the energy he gave her into a force he could use – infusing it with her living characteristics. When she pushed it back to him, she still had no clue how many he was summoning. It was going to be a hell of a lot more than a few hundred thousand.
Her eyes widened when his black shadows flowed out and filled the city streets for as far as the eye could see. They spanned up the sides of buildings and filled every nook and cranny of available space. Everyone was so shocked by it that the fighting momentarily stopped so they could gape at the sight. When the shadows began to twist into the forms of human bodies, Syn suddenly realized what he had done. Alucard had summoned up everything. Every single soul he had ever devoured. Every man, woman, and child... there were even thousands of those bloody war horses. Janissaries, soldiers from various countries and wars that had taken place through the centuries, the SWAT team from Brazil... even peasants and armies he had commanded himself when he was human were there.
"Holy fuck." she whispered.
If Integra wanted an army, she sure as hell got one. There were millions of summoned souls filling the streets so completely they were actually piled on top of each other. They moved more like an ocean wave than a march of soldiers. There were so damn many, the redhead couldn't even see Alucard any more. But as the shadowy bodies of the souls collected together into group formations, she finally caught sight of him. He hadn't moved from where he was before. But he definitely wasn't the same. Alucard's jet black hair was flowing in the wind like it had a mind of it own, whipping across his face like he couldn't be bothered to push it out of his eyes. He was dressed out in full battle armor – complete with a huge ass sword. This was what he had looked like when he was human... All the same features she was so familiar with were there, but she had never seen him with facial hair before. Syn pushed herself up off the ground and gently prodded his mind. She had to take a breath at what she felt. Not evil, but it was so fucking dark and powerful it bordered on complete chaos. The No Life King was capable of pretending to be human when he wanted to. He was capable of holding back and showing restraint. But like this... there were no chains, no leashes, and nothing there to stop him. And if he snapped, she had to be the one to stand in his way. Sweet Jesus, give me strength... she thought.
Alucard? She questioned carefully. Please don't make me fight you, because I really don't want to die again.
The vampire's eyes lit up in amusement. I'm still here, little goddess.
The redhead sighed in relief. Thank God. He was still in there. She watched as he stepped forward and dropped to one knee before his master. Integra looked around at all the souls he had called up, then studied him a moment.
"Welcome back, Count." she said.
It was an acknowledgment that he was different now. As he straightened, Seras stared at him with wide eyes.
"Master..." she breathed. "You... have a... mustache..."
Of all the things the draculina could have noticed or commented upon, she chose that. Alucard grinned down at her, then reached out his hand and ruffled her hair.
"Seras Victoria." he said, looking both amused and pleased. "Guard our master."
Syn just kept staring at him. All she could think was there was no possible way he could even be considered a vampire anymore. If she had encountered this level of power anywhere else, she would have thought it came dangerously close to being a god...
You like what you see? He purred, teasing her.
It was a familiar tease. Something he always did with her. The redhead sucked in a breath.
"Yes..." she said, not realizing she had spoken out loud until she caught sight of Seras and Integra blink at her.
Alucard chuckled, then turned on his heel and pointed a single finger. His army of souls rushed toward the enemies around them, picking up anything available to run through them. Flag poles, pieces of pipe and rails from fallen buildings, even rifles and missile launchers were used to impale them. It went so fast... almost the blink of an eye. Within the few minutes it took to do it, thousands of dead and dying were hoisted up into the air on poles to display their death.
Still? Syn heard in her mind.
Apparently, he was prodding to see if she would have the same opinion after watching him kill so many. She couldn't move or breathe. Just stare, awestruck. Yeah...
The masses of souls were beginning to pull back when a figure stepped out onto a large pile of rubble. The man's black cloak flowed out behind him, and firelight flashed across his bayonets.
"It's about time, monster."
Damn it all to hell. Alucard hadn't killed everyone. Some of the bloody Iscariots were still there, and Anderson was looking for a fight.
