Classes were, different. Everyone but Algebra had changed to relating to vampires, and their weaknesses. The school was not taking this lightly. Mr. Strider stood at the front of the class. "Can anyone tell me the three major anti-vampire groups?" Brit raised her hand. "Anyone except Miss Malacent?" No one. "Fine. Miss Malacent, can you tell us?"
"Iscariot, Hellsing, and The Templars of The Holy Roman Empire. Each has a different way of dealing with them."
"Very good. Now, can anyone tell me how they deal with vampires?" Akumura stood up, "Iscariot attempts to cleanse us, Hellsing tries to murder us, and The Templars do both." Scorpio leaned next to me, "Didn't Brit say that guy who Akumura and Naomi almost lost to was part of Iscariot?" I nodded, "Isn't the head of your company a Hellsing?" She nodded. "It's almost as if they're being drawn to the city."
"Is there something you'd like to share, Mr. Walker?" I looked at Scorpio. She shrugged. "Actually, yeah. There are members of both organizations in the city. Alexander is with Iscariot and the current C.E.O. of the Topaz Mining Company is with Hellsing." Mr. Strider sighed, "Do you have any evidence to back that?" Brit stood up, "During Akumura and Naomi's fight in the first round of the tournament, Alexander used a spell that is only known by members of Iscariot. And for the Topaz C.E.O., that'd have to be up to Bill or Scorpio."
"Well," Scorpio pulled out her phone, "her name is Helena Von Hellsing, and she is openly a vampire hunter. When we first spoke, she said she had no interest in the company, instead she wished to use it as a front to kill Alucard." He shrugged, "Alright, I'll talk to Chasan about that later." We sat back down. Naomi and Akumura looked at Scorpio.
I threw away the trash I had. "I wouldn't worry too much." Jamie had that tone in her voice, where she was trying to calm someone down, but couldn't keep her own composure, "Just because you're Vampires, do you really think the school's going to deny you basic education? Neither of you are Alucard, we know that." Akumura slammed his head on the table, leaving a small indent in his forehead, "True, but the school doesn't. Right now, being the only Vampires they can be sure of, we're suspects number 1 and 2. Completely interchangeable, but that's aside the point."
"Well," Scorpio looked at her phone, "If it helps, Helena talked with Chasan and is going to be stationed here until Alucard and Dracula attack, or we attack them." Naomi shook her head, "Nope. That puts me more on edge, probably Akumura too. We've experienced Hellsings before, when it comes to us, they're ruthless. Who knows if she'll show up to our dorm one day and kill us."
"I've told her you helped kill Alucard," Scorpio was trying to reason with Naomi, "She's agreed not to hunt until they come. Even so, she's said she'll only kill them. As long as you aren't a threat, you'll be fine."
"Alright," Naomi didn't sound convinced, "But we're going to be on guard at all time."
We sat on the bleachers. "Weird to think that just a few days ago you two were fighting here," Naomi looked at Akumura and me, "Already seems like ages ago to me." A woman walked next to the coach. She had long, dirty blonde hair. The only person I know who could rival her height was Alucard. She was wearing a suit with two bayonets strapped on her back. I leaned next to Scorpio, "Is that-"
"Helena, yes. She really wasn't kidding when she said she'd be here asap." She looked directly at Scorpio, then at me. "My name," she glared at Naomi, "is Helena Von Hellsing. I've worked my entire life as a vampire hunter. I've been contacted by your headmaster to train you how to kill vampires. No doubt you've heard of the, conventional, ways to kill a Vampire. Holy Water, wooden stake to the heart, Decapitation, removal of the spine, disintegration, consumption of a Fairy's blood, and having their own blood consumed by another Vampire." Naomi and Akumura both tensed up at mention of Fairy's blood. "So, let's get to the basics."
I held a small vial in my hand. "I feel like I shouldn't be holding this," the label read 'Holy Water', "I mean, it's specifically created to kill Vampires, yeah, but just, the name. It probably would do harm to Demons too." Helena walked up to me, "Correct. It was a major weapon used by Angels in the war, Humans didn't start using it until Fairies disguised as Angels showed us, some 3,000 years ago." Brit started taking more notes. "It has drastically different effects on the two, but yes, it is harmful to both." I tossed the bottle to Jamie. "What am I supposed to do with this?!"
"Let's start by not letting me handle it." I felt a burning on my hand. I looked down, and there was a small crater in my flesh, "See? It's already hurt me." She shook her head, "Fine. But don't expect me to know what to do with it."
Akumura groaned. "Yeah, I feel ya'." I looked out the window. The room had a view over the entire campus. I sat on my bed, "So," I took off my jacket and let my wings out, "What was with that form?"
"Huh?"
"Come on man, everyone knew that wasn't what you're normally like. In our fight you entered a state like when you fought Alexander. What was with that?"
"Oh, that. Yeah, it's a form that I enter whenever my body decides I'm in danger. Naomi scolds me for using it, but I don't really have much of a choice in the matter. Kind of like your new form." I moved my wings, "Yeah. Mine's a bit more, permanent though. Not to mention I still have no idea how to use these aside from moving them a little. I might try to get some training from Jamie or Chasan, but I dunno. It might be best to let them be simply an extension of me." Akumura shook his head, "Nah, definitely learn to fly. I would if I had the chance." I shrugged, "Maybe. I'd have to completely change my fighting style, but it would be cool." Akumura nodded, "Hell yeah it would be."
I woke up in Hell. My dad stood next to me. "Good," He motioned for me to follow him, "It's time you meet your subjects."
"What?"
"The rest of the Demon race. They've been waiting, ever since I've managed to contact you."
"Uh, alright?" We walked to the edge of a cliff, at the bottom, millions of beings cheered. "SILENCE!" Everyone stopped. "Today, you once again have a prince! My son, Bill." He looked at me with a combination of admiration, and twisted pride. "He's finally awaken his true form! Now," I looked closer at some of the Demons in the crowd. It was like a rainbow, each one having a slightly different color than the other. Children being restrained by adults, elders releasing tears of joy. "We finally can return! Be released from this prison, and lead the lived we've longed for!" There was more cheering. We walked back to where we were before. "So, you did it. Was it, painful?" I nodded. "I expected so. For most Demons, it's a completely painless process. But, since you are half human, I wondered. You have a much lower tolerance for pain than we do. So, tell me, what's it like, finally achieving what you were meant to be?" I shrugged, "I mean, it's alright. Nothing, world shattering. For the most part, I just have wings now."
"That's right now. Your body is capable of so much more now. Do some research on our people, and try to do some of the things we can. I think you'll find it, intriguing." He turned around. "You are capable of so much more than you know."
