Thread: Hellsing - Switching the Roles.- [Karameida x Remec]

RE Hellsing - Switching the Roles.- Mentally, Victor knew exactly how he should have felt on exerting himself as he had in escaping from the restraints on the hospital bed and vaulting to the floor before Alaina. Breath in a slight pant, eyes slightly bulging, both eye extension and breath pulsing in an echo of the increased rate of his heart in his chest. None of which he was going through. He merely sat where he had landed and waited for her response to his slightly smartmouthed question. When nothing came forth from her right away, Victor was almost certain he'd screwed up and was going to get shot for his troubles anyway. Then she spoke and, despite how short a time he'd known her, the constable's world was bouyed up and he knew he was smiling. Potential...the Master thinks I have potential... He reined in his elation and listened to what else Alaina had to say, nodding as appropriate, and casting a slight glance back at the thick, metal-and-nylon restraints and sighed to himself. I shall have to get hold of some of those things and practice ripping them asunder. I wonder how strong we really are now? Victor's attention was snapped back to his new Master when she touched and manipulated his face...and nearly his whole body. On being released, he also sat back somewhat, but remained on the floor before her and listened. He wanted to answer her back, to defend himself about how he had handled being among the zombies and ghouls. He knew had put down at least half a dozen while still human and didn't think another six would be that much more trouble now that he was a vampire. It grated on him, but she knew more than he did and if she said he needed to improve he'd wait until he challenged her on that point. He watched Alaina leave and got up to do the same, then realized he was in a hospital gown. He was sure the clothes he'd been wearing had not survived, and looked to see if anyone had thought to bring him a change. The closet in the room held his own coat, where and how they had found it, Victor had no clue. His own boots had been there as well, which he was more glad for than he had thought he ever would be to see those beat up pieces of leather and metal. Hanging above the footwear was a uniform he had not seen before. He quickly slipped it on, as well as the boots and the overcoat, and tried a few times to exit the way Alaina had. Obviously, not something I can do at will, if at all. Victor wondered if each vampire had special tricks unique to him or herself and how one went about discovering what one was capable of. Making a note to ask Alaina about it, he placed his hand on the door and started to leave the old-fashioned way, but stopped. Try not to eat any of the members or hospital staff of your way out, hero boy, Alaina had thought at him. Victor considered it and nodded to himself. Why tempt myself, when I can tempt Fate? he said as he moved to the window, opened it, and looked out. He thought he remembered the layout of this facility, but he had been wrong in that these rooms did not have direct access to the fire escape. It was several dozen feet away, with nothing between it and him but a small ledge...barely the width of his foot. He smiled and slipped out the window on to the ledge anyways. Practice speed and strength, eh? May as well start now, he said as he gripped an ornamental external molding that jutted out from the building and ran along with the ledge towards the escape. Victor pumped himself up and spinted towards the metal staircage. When he realized he wouldn't make it all the way, he suddenly kicked off from the building at an angle and caught the side of the fire escape several floors down. He didn't bother pulling himself inside, just used the speed and momentum he'd built up and scampered down to the ground and entered the hospital just as Alaina was entering the main lobby from the other end. He stopped and stood in the vestibule and smiled at her. His smile was no match for Alaina's but it was not the smile of the man he had been. And where are we off to now, Master? he thought to her.
