31: The End

It reminded you of a story that your mother used to tell.

Once upon a time, a vampire embarked on a voyage to England to attain one woman he so thirstily longed for. The crowded ship on which this vampire sailed skirted over wave after wave, amid the mist, in a heedless jaunt. Its crew massacred in their entirety along the way. At length, the ship made port in London, awash with corpses and a long coffin. The ship's name was Demeter. Demitri in Russian. And the vampire aboard was the most dashing undead to have ever been seen.

"And that was me, my love." Alucard interrupted your thoughts. "I had not originally come for a woman, contrary to that lovely story... but I am certainly leaving England with the most perfect of all."

"That is sweet, Alucard." You noted calmly.

"You haven't been suffering your compulsions. Nervous, are we?"

"No. No need to add extra pain when everyone hurts the same."

He found the statement strangely deep for the Lolita-styled girl, but was equally impressed by it. "Master! My master Integra Hellsing! Orders!"

"My slave!" Her voice rang in Alucard's head. "The vampire Alucard! Your orders are to massacre everyone. To not allow one single soul to escape this island alive. Dye crimson all white-clothed warriors wielding silver! Dye vermilion all black-clad warriors wielding iron! Stain red  the clothes of our enemies; kill every enemy in your sights. Lay to ruin every enemy you see!"

"Yes, as you wish my master!" Alucard's face grew a seductive, twisted smile. The control art restriction system was now set to level zero. A slaughter was going to happen.

"Search and destroy, servant! My orders are final! No matter what, all those who oppose us must be laid to waste!! Anything that stands in our way will be completely obliterated. Crush everyone and anyone  who stands in our way. Whether it be friend or foe, we must win at all costs."

"Such nice women I have around me." Alucard cooed to you. "They'll be all mine and only mine. A beloved master only for me, a loyal servant who serves only me and a delicious lover who loves only me. None of you will ever be anyone else's!" He pulled your waist into his. "You will stay here and I will slaughter anyone who opposes that idea."

"Alucard! I am only yours and I would die by my own hand before allowing any sentiment otherwise! And I would massacre anyone who dares to come between us!"

There was a pregnant pause.

"Let me tell you this now." He started. "You are to stay on this ship because after I kill these humans, I must venture inside myself and kill all the lives inside of me. And I am a selfish being... I must have you by my side... even if it takes thirty years to do so."

With a deep breath you looked into his dark eyes. "I would follow you to the ends of the universe."
