Yami To Boushi to Hon no Tabibito: Ever After
Three
Lilith's long blond hair flowed around her as they made their way through the throne room, the battle rippling around them. Seres Victoria and Integra Hellsing had lead them on this raid of the vampire lord's home, the two English vampires determined to destroy their foe and dangling Eve in front of Hatsuki to get her to help!
'Tho I doubt they lied,' Lilith admitted, staying close to Hazuki as the agents of Hellsing fought the vampire horde. Whatever else could be said about Sir Integra, Lilith felt certain she wouldn't lie to someone when the truth would work just as well.
Hazuki was a dark wave of death, her shining katana slicing down vampires left and right. Lilith followed her close, watching her back as she used her limited magics to keep them safe. "Where is she?" Hazuki asked as she cleaved another vampire in two.
"Up ahead of us," Lilith pinpointed the energies associated with Eve and pointed across the vampire infested room, "that's the chamber Seres thought was a harem."
"Harem?" Hazuki growled, offended by the very idea of her sister Hatsumi in a place like that.
Lilith shook her head as they charged forward through the vampires, once again astonished by her companion's single mindedness. "Heh."
"Alucard!" Integra yelled as she swept the room with her guns, the woman dressed in a red suit cutting the vampires down with bursts of firepower.
A black shadow seemed to flow through the wall into the room, materializing as a dark, regal figure. Black sunglasses concealed his eyes, matching the pure ebony of his suit, the cloth seeming to suck the light in. His skin was eerily pale and his fangs gleamed as he said, "Sir Integra, it's been so long since I saw you."
"Not long enough," Integra growled as she opened fire on him with what were once his own guns, two replicas of the Jackal.
The powerful arms staggered even Alucard, but he shook it off as he looked Integra over. "And you've been raiding my closet?" he teased.
"I thought the trashman of Hellsing should be easily recognized," Integra answered simply.
Alucard casually sauntered over as the battle died down, most of his ghoul servants struck down. "You know, I was really too hasty trying to kill you," he reached out to Integra, "I should thank Seres for turning you."
"You're welcome," Seres Victoria said coldly as she rose from across the room, hefting her heavy cannon Harkonen. An explosive shell screamed across the room to impact with Alucard's chest, exploding as it blew him apart.
"Come on!" Lilith said as they scampered across the battlefield to the door to the harem. She tugged on it, frowning as it wouldn't budge. "Locked," she pouted.
"Step back," Hazuki ordered then swund her sword, the silver blade glowing a eerie green as it sliced the metal easily.
The door swung open as they entered the harem to be greeted by a scene of horror. The many young women taken by Alucard had already been fed on, the virgins becoming vampires while the others were mindless ghouls. From the back the vampiresses commanded the ghouls to attack, the shambling wrecks charging blindly.
As Lilith generated lights to blind them Hazuki attacked, her sword cutting into the undead as they pushed forward, both searching for something amid the attacking dead. 'Where is Eve?' Lilith thought, trying to see past their attackers. "There!" she pointed.
"Hatsumi!" Hazuki yelled to the achingly pretty blond vampire, the girl tilting her head to the side in mute question. "It's me, Hazuki! Remember!"
Eve hesitated, something in her eyes changing as she watched them fight nearer. Then her expression blanked oddly as a eerie green light began to engulf her.
"No!" Lilith bitched, "Not now!"
Before they could get any closer Eve disappeared, presumedly moving on to the next universe down the line. "Damn it all!" Hazuki cursed, taking advantage of the confusion that mysterious event caused and fighting to get them clear of the vampires. They reached the doorway and ran through, slamming it shut as Hazuki asked, "Can you follow her?"
"Not immediately," Lilith admitted as they barred the door behind them, "I'll need some time to gather my strength."
Outside, the battle had come down to three figures, facing each other by the throne. Alucard looked as deadly and confident as ever, his smile a mix of cruel and amused. Integra faced him confidently, Seres by her side, the other vampires and her army having destroyed each other in battle.
"This has been very fun," Alucard admitted with a smile, "in fact, I haven't enjoyed myself this much since I gutted that old hag, Queen Elizabeth." He dropped the smile as he said coldly, "But now it's time to bring things to a close."
"I won't let you hurt Integra," Seres said as she moved in front of her protectively.
Alucard nodded, "In fact, I wasn't going to hurt her."
"Huh?" both Integra and Seres looked startled.
Alucard gestured towards a broken window, showing the battered, deserted city of London outside. "It would be far more interesting if you would join me," he told them, "I could teach you the hidden depths of a true nosterafu's powers."
"No way in hell," Integra said in her usual crisp manner.
"Should we...?" Hazuki murmured.
"No," Lilith shook her head, marshaling power for the jump between words.
"Then I suppose I must...," Alucard sighed as he stepped close to Integra.
"No!" Seres tacked him, the busty blonde struggling to hold the taller man back.
"Alucard," Integra met the struggling man's eyes, "Codeword: Mina Harker!"
The vampire Alucard stiffened in shock as he felt controls he had long thought destroyed kick in once more. "How...?" he demanded as his own body reshaped against his will, reforming the straight jacket he had worn when Integral had found him as a child.
"You don't think my ancestors didn't expect you to betray us eventually?" Integra asked him coldly, her hair gleaming.
"What now, master?" Seres asked Integra softly as Lilith's transport spell began to carry her and Hazuki both away.
Integra pointed her gun at Alucard's head, "I won't pass this mess along to another generation." With that, she pulled the trigger...

The familiar sense of vertigo washed over Hazuki and Lilith, the two thankfully emerging in what appeared to be a deserted wood in the height of suimmer. The two gore splattered heroines soon found a stream where they washed off, then reluctantly stripped to clean their clothes.
Lilith enjoyed watching the nearly naked Hazuki wash up, taking in the tough girl's surprisingly well developed body. 'She's so cute,' she thought, wishing Hazuki had chosen to wear a set of more revealing underwear.
Meanwhile, Hazuki was trying not to notice the very skimpy bra and panties Lilith wore, feeling vaguely disloyal to Hatsumi. It didn't help that Lilith wore what resembled thong panties and a bra that was more lace than bra, if you know what I mean.
Lilith looked up, her breasts bouncing a bit as she frowned, "Someone's coming!"
Hazuki grabbed for her sword as she saw two women fly up over the hill then descend to the clearing where the stream ran through. The blue haired girl's boots seemed to generate a path for them in midair that she rose, while beside her a orange haired girl rode along with her while carrying two advanced looking pistols.
"I am Enforcer Teana Lanster of the Time Space Administration Bureau," the orange haired girl declared, "you were detected using an unauthorized gating method into a protected zone."
"Easy," the blue haired girl put her hand on Teana's shoulder. "I'm Enforcer Subari Nakajima," she smiled at them, "mind telling me what's going on?" She smirked, "Getting dressed might help, too."
As the fiercely blushing Hazuki jumped for her clothes, she wondered how they were going to talk their way out of this one...
To be continued!
Notes: Sorry for the LONG gap in updating. I had started this chapter earlier but lost my first draft in a computer crash. And for a while, I was so annoyed over the lost chapter I didn't WANT to update.
