Chapter 20
"I don't like this?" Yugi grumbled.
"Well we can't stay any longer," Joey said. "Our money's about out, and we need some to get home."
"And you can't fly in your condition," Tristan added.
Yugi grumbled under his breath, but he knew they were right. His ribs still weren't completely healed after three weeks, so he couldn't go home yet.
"Hey I can't go home yet either," Bakura pointed out to Yugi. Alucard had told Bakura that he still needed time to perfect his demon powers, and according to the red-clad vampire, Bakura still wasn't ready to go home. The scar on his eye had faded a little but it was still somewhat visible.
"We don't leave for a few more days," Tea added. "Maybe by then you'll be able to come and see us off." They really couldn't stay much longer, Bakura's parents had left a few days before, and the Ishtars had left not long after Bakura had killed Kasumari.
"I don't see how that helps," Yugi grumbled.
ooo
Three days later, Tea, Joey, and Tristan were getting ready to get on the plane. Bakura, Seras, Walter, and Yugi were there to see him off.
"See you in a few weeks," Tea said.
"It will be a few weeks, right?" Joey asked unsurely.
"I hope," Bakura answered. "From the way Alucard has been working me, I don't know whether I've made progress or not."
"That doesn't sound good," Tristan said. "Although that vampire has never been one to give a straight answer now has he?"
"Not for as long as I've known him," Walter answered. The old butler looked at his watch, "You three should be getting on the plane, it's going to be leaving soon."
The three nodded, and without another word, they headed onto the plane.
"Do you two want to stay and watch the plane leave?" Seras asked Yugi and Bakura.
"Not if I don't have to," Yugi answered. "Standing still isn't easy." He turned to Bakura, "What about you?"
Bakura sighed, "Lets just go, watching it leave will just make things harder."
"You'll see them again soon enough," Walter said as they left the airport.
ooo
Several days later, Bakura was lying around in his room after a training session with Alucard when Yugi walked in.
"Got any energy left?" Yugi asked.
"Why?" Bakura asked without sitting up.
"I'm feeling pretty good today," Yugi said. "Good enough to leave this prison for a few hours."
Bakura laughed and sat up. "So what you're basically saying is that you're bored and you want me to entertain you by taking you around London, right?"
Yugi shrugged, "If you're not too dead from Alucard's harassment."
"I'll ignore the pun," Bakura said. He groaned and got to his feet. "Why not, I haven't left this place very much since we went to airport, so I guess we're both due for a little fun time."
Yugi grinned and they walked out of Bakura's room. They left the manor and headed for no place in particular.
"So where are the fun places to go?" Yugi asked as they walked down the street.
Bakura glared at Yugi, "What am I, a tour guide?"
Yugi smirked, "Well I don't know anything about this place."
Bakura sighed, "Now that I think about it, I really don't know any good places anymore. At least none that would be of any entertainment to us."
"So you're telling me you sat around the house when you were a kid?" Yugi asked.
Bakura laughed, "No, I didn't." He thought back to his childhood, but he really couldn't find anything good to talk about. "Well, maybe I did. Studying mostly."
"You're telling me that all you did when you lived here was buried your face in books?" Yugi asked.
"Pretty much," Bakura answered. "I didn't really get into anything until I moved to Domino. Of course, that was when all Hell broke loose for me." He heard the spirit smirk. -Shut up, it was your fault anyway. -
-And it was fun too, - the spirit replied.
-You're a psycho, - Bakura told him and erected mental barriers so he wouldn't have to listen to the spirit. "Speaking of which, Yami hasn't been showing his face much.
Yugi shrugged, "Nothing for him to do." He got a weird look on his face and grimaced.
"Did he just give you an earful?" Bakura asked.
"I've actually had mental barriers up for a while. He hasn't had a clue about what's been going on," Yugi answered, and then made a face again as Yami yelled at him some more.
Bakura laughed, but then asked, "Why did you put the barriers up?"
Yugi didn't answer at first, but finally said, "I can't exactly remember why, and then I forgot I put them up, and I know just realized they were up."
Bakura sighed, "I doubt Yami wants you to make a habit of that."
"You got that right," Yugi replied as he grimaced again.
ooo
Bakura found a bench for them to sit on while he waited for Yami to finish giving Yugi a tongue-lashing. By the time Yugi relaxed with a sigh, the sun was beginning to set.
"How is he?" Bakura asked.
"He won't let me forget it for a long time," Yugi answered.
Bakura shook his head and got to his feet, "Come on, we should head back. I know Kasumari is dead but there is still a chance that another vampire will make an appearance."
"So much for doing anything," Yugi grumbled as they started walking.
Bakura shrugged, "Hey, if you had told Yami about that was going on, we wouldn't have spent the entire afternoon sitting on that bench.
Yugi grumbled as they crossed the street.
ooo
About halfway back to the manor, two armored trucks passed them, and Bakura recognized them. "Looks like they've got a job to do tonight."
"Glad it's not you?" Yugi asked.
"I've had enough with fighting to last me for a long time," Bakura answered.
Suddenly another armored truck came up the street, and this time it pulled up beside them. Seras jumped out of the back and went to Bakura. "My master said that he wanted us to bring you along on the mission."
"What?" Bakura asked, "Why?"
"Master said it was to help with you training," Seras answered. "I'm just following orders. If you don't want to do it, you'll have to go back to the manor and argue it out with Master."
Bakura sighed, "All right, I'll go with you. But what about Yugi, I'm not letting him walk back to the manor in the dark like this."
Seras sighed, "He'll have to come with us then." She looked at Yugi, "Although this time you will not be part of the fighting."
Yugi looked relieved.
"Come on," Seras said as she grabbed Bakura's jacket, "let's go."
"Where are we going?" Bakura asked as they got inside the truck and the truck started moving."
"The Brutish Museum," Seras answered. "A vampire went loose in there obviously. Some people were able to get out, but now the place is rampant with Ghouls, and of the course the vampire we have to dispose of."
"Wonderful," Bakura muttered. He glanced at Yugi; "You're staying in the truck the entire time."
"Gladly," Yugi said. "I wouldn't leave this thing even if you paid me."
"Just in case," Seras said as she pulled out a spare handgun. She handed it to Yugi. "Can't be too careful."
Yugi nodded and stowed the gun away.
ooo
When they finally arrived at the museum, Bakura followed Seras inside. The two of them stayed in the shadows and searched for the rogue vampire.
"We aren't getting very far," Bakura pointed out as he shot another Ghoul. He loaded his second magazine into his gun. "I only have one more, and I really don't want to waste it on Ghouls."
"What are you worried about?" Seras asked. "If you run out you can just use your powers."
Bakura sighed and peered around the corner. He spotted several Ghouls staggering down the hall. "They just keep coming."
"I'll cover for you if you want to make a run down the hall," Seras offered.
"What makes you think I want to do that?" Bakura asked.
"Because Master told me that you can dodge bullets," Seras answered. "I can't do that, so it'll be more effective if we do it that way."
Bakura sighed again, "All right, but if I get hit and turn to dust Yugi gets full right to shoot you."
Seras giggled, "I won't hit you, as long as you don't run straight in front of a Ghoul."
"You sound like you're enjoying this way too much," Bakura said as he prepared to run.
"Go!" Seras yelled.
Bakura sprinted down the hall. He heard the shots as Seras fired at the Ghouls, but all he really concentrated on was the next corner he could get behind. When he reached it, there was a Ghoul behind it. Instead of wasting a bullet, though, he jammed the muzzle of his handgun into the Ghoul's face. It turned to dust at his feet.
"Ready?" Bakura asked as he turned around. Seras was walking up behind him. The look of triumph on her face made it seem so, but when it suddenly changed to a look of fear, so did his feelings about the easy part being over.
"Look out behind you!" Seras yelled.
Bakura ducked just as something swung at his head. He spun around, lashing his leg out and knocking his attacker off its feet. He shot to his feet, only to be tackled into the wall by the vampire they were looking for.
"Bakura!" Seras yelled.
The vampire sank its fangs into Bakura's right shoulder, thinking he was a normal Hellsing soldier. "Oh thanks, that's just what I need!" His gun had been knocked out of his hand when the vampire had tackled him, so there was only one other way to get it off. His left hand began to glow, and then shifted into a dragon's claw. "Dinner's over for you!" He stabbed his claws into the vampire, his hand emerging from the vampire's back. The vampire turned to dust on him.
"Are you okay?" Seras asked.
"I have a gash in my shoulder and I'm covered in vampire dust," Bakura grumbled. "How would you feel?"
Seras made a face, "I think I know what you mean."
Bakura grimaced at his shoulder, "Well, this won't be fun." He raised his glowing claw above the wound.
"What are you-?" Seras started, but then stopped. She watched as Bakura grasped his wounded shoulder with his claw. He hissed in pain for a moment, and then pulled his claw away. His wound was gone, covered by a silvery white scar. His claw shifted back to his hand.
"Don't ask me to do that to anyone else," Bakura said as he got to his feet. He dusted himself off. "Come on, I'm sure there are still some Ghouls left here that need to be dealt with."
Seras nodded, and pulled out her radio. "Target vampire has been silenced. Do one last sweep for Ghouls."

Author's Note: Oh my god! I updated! Isn't it a concept? Sorry I took forever, but my first semester of school was so loaded that I barely had time to sleep. I've been trying to do some writing, but it's been hard. Not to mention that the past few days have been weird for me. I had some minor surgery done, so the painkillers I was on just made me want to sleep. I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter, and I'll try and update again as soon as I can. Reviews me and tell me what you think.
