Chapter 5: Furinkan

Entering the school gates Ranma noticed the various military vehicles strewn about the parking lot haphazardly as if a cyclone had been through recently.

"Sarge what happened to the Company?"

"Only God can answer your question Smith, for now look out for any survivors."

Bending down to pick up a shell casing Andy inspected it.

"What ever happened here must have happened only a few hours ago. Look at the shell casings, some of them are still slightly warm…the only question is where are the bodies?"

Picking his way through the debris Ranma glanced up at the clock tower of the school sensing the dark presence emanating from that position.

Looking up Ranma saw a cloaked figure gazing down on the men with glowing red malevolent eyes.

[Who are you.]

[Who I am is none of your concern fledgling. You like those before you do not know whom you are interfering with.]

Drawing his Desert Eagle Ranma aimed at the figure.

[All I know is that you are threatening innocent lives and that you will die.]

[Humans are only cattle, useful only for their blood. You are one of us; join us or die.]

Signalling to his men to take aim at the figure; Ranma barred his teeth.

[I choose option three; kick your ass and ram my boot so far up their you'll be using my knee cap as tonsils.]

"FIRE!!!!!!"

Before the rounds could impact the figure burst into a cloud of vapour fading into the night. His voice echoing in the winds as the smoke dispersed.

[We'll meet again, for now enjoy the company of your friends.]

[Fuckyou.]

"Sarge we've got armed ghouls on our flanks exiting the buildings and entering from the street!"

Looking at the rotting corpses of the JSSDF troopers stumbling towards them toting their m-16 rifles Ranma felt his rage build.

Walking towards them with his sword drawn; lighting crackling across the blade Ranma let out an audible growl. Anger coming forth from the sword; anger for the death of the men trying to protect their nation. Good men did not deserve this sort of fate.

"For those who have fallen to the darkness we shall bring the eternal light of hope back. Amen."

Dashing forward as a black blur Ranma zipped between the crossfire occurring between the knights and the ghouls.

Approaching one of the ghouls Ranma leapt over its spray of bullets firing a round from his Desert Eagle down its head imploding the skull and sending a geyser of fetid blood spurting out of the entry hole.

Charging at another group of ghouls Ranma inverted his blade and slashed vertically sending a vortex of darkness spinning towards the ghouls enveloping them in a miasma of blood leaving the remnants to fall to the ground as heaving droplets of goop.

Throughout Ranma's headlong charge the other members of the platoon had formed a harbour around one of the trucks providing covering fire for Ranma and suppressing the clumps of charging ghouls with automatic fire and grenades.

Skidding to a halt Ranma slashed with his hand at a ghoul that had come too close for his liking. Standing up Ranma tapped the ghoul on the head causing it to fall off along with the rest of its body, which fell into neatly sliced sections.

Retracting his `claws' Ranma faced his palm towards a group of ghouls approaching from the wall. Gathering his energy Ranma pushed with his palm causing an invisible force to press the ghouls into the wall.

Eventually causing blood too erupt from their respective orifices as the ghouls began to be reduced into a fine pulp from Ranma's ministrations. Lowering his arm Ranma left the bloody stains on the wall to puddle on the ground.

Turning to face another howling group of ghouls Ranma raised his Desert Eagle in preparation to fire only to get blown back as a sudden explosion ripped through the ghouls tearing them asunder. The concussion blast causing a wave of compressed air to blow Ranma a few feet backwards.

Looking to his left Ranma saw Andy waving at him as he lowered an Anti-tank RPG.

"Hey Sarge look what we found in this truck, looks like the nips were playing for keeps."

"…"

"Hey Yoshi bet ya I can get more kills than ya!"

"Your on shit for brains."

"*BOOM*!!!!! *BOOM*!!!"

The remaining clusters of ghouls disappeared in flashes of light sending arms and legs into the air trailing streams of sticky blood.

"Ha got twenty in that last one."

"Toss on Smith, if you got twenty then the Sarge is a saint."

"Bite me Yoshi….hey man I've been thinking."

"Fuck take cover the word's gonna end."

"Har har well do ya reckon God has a hard on for Knights, because we kill everything we see. He plays, his games, we play ours.

To show our appreciation for so much power, we keep heaven packed with fresh souls.

God was here before the Knighthood, so you can give your heart to Jesus, but your ass belongs to the Sergeant!"

"Amen to that man, A day without blood is like a day without sunshine."

Seeing no more ghouls within the immediate vicinity Ranma called an `O' group around the trucks, giving Yoshida and Smith a wide birth as the two men contemplated the philosophy of killing ghouls.

"Listen up; we have to find out what's happened here. Green and Blue sections will maintain perimeter guard while myself and Red section will enter the gym and try to find any information the JSSDF had on what's been going on here."

"Sarge who was that guy on the clock tower?"

"He's open season if any of you ever see him. Shoot first, keep on shooting - forget the questions. Got it."

"Yes Sergeant!"

"Let's go Red section, Andy you've got drag. Murphy you've got point, let's move out."

Tapping the microphone on his headset Ranma raised the RATEL Knight for Three Platoon.

"Charlie Three this is Alpha One Sunray over."

"Alpha One this is Charlie Three loud and clear over."

"Charlie Three this is Alpha One requesting Captain Hiro over."

"Wait One Alpha One."

Moments later after a brief pause in the other end Captain Hiro's voice came across the tac net.

"SITREP Sergeant?"

"The JSSDF Company stationed in Nerima has been wiped out to the man and my platoon's incurred casualties from a new breed of vampire. Requesting a research team and support from the JSSDF and a medivac for the seriously wounded."

"What happened over there?"

"The HQ over here apparently fell to the vampires a few hours prior to our insertion. The ward has been under attack for the past few weeks but the JSSDF managed to contain the threat until tonight. I've sent a team into the HQ to recover any useful information pertaining to what's happened."

Approaching the gym Ranma began to signal for the men to fan out.

"I'll inform the JSSDF immediately and request for reinforcements not to mention I'll send a dispatch to Hellsing; Sir Integra will want to know of this.

Secure the ward and sit tight until reinforcements arrive and try to find out as much as you can about the vampires operating there.

Currently your platoon is the only one that has encountered any vampires; once Two and Three platoon have finished their sweeps I'll send some sections to support you."

"Thankyou sir. We'll get payback for what those bastards did. Ranma out."

***

Coming to the gym doorway Ranma called a halt and pulled out two grenades.

"Take note men; throwing a grenade into a room insures a friendly reception."

Putting words to action Ranma kicked the doors in and threw the grenades in before stepping back out.

"*BOOOM*!!!! *BOOOM*!!!"

"Ummm Sarge wasn't that a bit excessive?"

"You're right Andy they might still be alive."

Pulling out a thermite grenade Ranma lobbed it through the doorway.

Staring blankly at Ranma for a couple of seconds Andy's mind struggled to catch up with his CO's actions.

"Fuck take cover!!!!!"

"BOOOOOOOOOM*!!!!!"

Diving out of the pathway the rest of the knights watched as Ranma moved to the side of the doorway as the explosion ripped through the building. Sending what was left of the door along with some parts of the wall into the night sky.

"Are you done yet ladies? We have a mission to finish."

Drawing his Desert Eagle again Ranma entered the building followed by the apprehensive knights.

***

Entering the gym Ranma stepped over the mangled remains of ghouls.

"*SQUISH*"

Ranma looked down at his boot and lifted it to reveal what were probably male organs at one time dripping in little globules of his boot.

"Hmmm that must have hurt."

Surveying the open hall Ranma realised they where in the sleeping quarters of the JSSDF while at the other undamaged side was the intelligence section.

"Andy take Wilson and sift through the files looking for any relevant data. Murphy, Erickson find the generator. The rest of you fan out in twos and secure the building."

Tapping his microphone again Ranma went to stand in the doorway facing the direction of the other two sections.

"Smith do you read me?"

"Loud and clear Sarge."

"Take Red section and clean up the area. Retrieve weapons, police the bodies and build defensive positions around the gym with the sand bags already out there, bring the vehicles within the defensive perimeter.

Fokker I want you to take Green Section and secure the rooftop of the gym and establish sniping positions and provide cover for Red Section. On the double men I want this place battle ready before sunrise."

"Yes Sergeant!!!"

"Blue Section once you've done your duties clean up the inside of the gym and move the bodies outside."

"Yes Sergeant!!!"

***

5am…

Watching the members of Red Section sleeping in the old cots of the JSSDF Ranma exited the gym and saw the reflections of the telescopic lenses of the members of Green Section acting as snipers on the gym roof, glinting as the sun rose over the horizon signalling the beginning of another day.

Walking towards one of the trucks with the members of Blue Section waiting inside Ranma leapt up to the passenger seat next to the driver.

"Andy on the double back to the location of our engagement with the new type of vampires. We have to clean up the mess before the press get a hold of any pictures of dead men next to vampires."

"Understood Sarge, how long until we can receive any support from the JSSDF?"

"Captain Hiro informed me that the forward elements of the new Company wouldn't arrive until lunchtime and the tech unit from Hellsing won't arrive till tomorrow."

"…ummm out of curiosity Sarge but how come the place isn't in an uproar about having military men operating within the school?"

"The public have been informed that there are a group of terrorists operating in then area and that the army is there for their protection…. the shootings at night have been related to the JSSDF raiding suspected terrorist houses."

"Don't the public deserve to know the truth."

"Sometimes it is better for the truth to remain masked until the recipients are ready to accept it."

"Understood Sarge."

"Good because we're here. Okay men fan out and put the bodies into the back of the truck. Retrieve any stray ammunition and mop up the blood. Andy you're in charge, I'm going into the household to insure that the girl from last night won't speak of the event."

"Yes Sergeant."

***

Knocking on the door Ranma was surprised to be answered by a beautiful brunette holding a broom with a radiant smile on her face.

Ranma found himself brushing imaginary specs of dust from his combat uniform. He was almost embarrassed for turning up in the blood soaked clothes, even though you couldn't see the red stains on the jet-black uniform.

"Hello there how may I help you Mr….?"

"Ranma Wingates, I'm here to see Nabiki Tendo concerning an incident she had last night."

"Oh my is it anything serious."

"No not at all, I just need to insure we have the right facts."

Noticing that Ranma was still standing outside of the house Kasumi lead him towards the reception area.

"How rude of me, come inside and please wait while I go wake Nabiki up."

Kneeling next to the table Ranma marvelled at the amount of heritage that the house had managed to preserve in today's society.

Lost in his thoughts Ranma was staring at the koi pond before the insistent voice of Knight Nilson buzzing in his earpiece snapped him out of his daze.

"Sergeant we're all done here. Do you want us to do anything else?"

"No Corporal, return to base and relieve Green Section of their guard duty and send them to bed and wake up Red Section and have them start breakfast. I should be there by the time they are finished."

"Do you want me to leave an escort here for you?"

"There's no need, I'll find my own way back."

Finishing his conversation with Andy Ranma turned to the doorway as a dishevelled Nabiki entered while Kasumi stood in the archway as Nabiki sat down.

"Please excuse us Kasumi-san."

"Of course Wingates-san."

Turning to Nabiki Ranma assessed the tired looking girl as Kasumi left the archway for parts unknown.

"You are aware that what occurred last night is to be kept under the strictest confidentiality If you attempt to go public it will be denied and following that you will be detained for a prolonged period of time."

Eyes sharpening at the veiled threat Nabiki leaned forward.

"Last night was a nightmare I don't want to ever think about again. What will you do to stop this from getting out, there must be more witnesses out there?"

"I will do everything in my power to insure the public stays ignorant of this threat and that those rumours you spoke of last night stay as rumours. I'm here to put an end to those beings you saw, as for any other witnesses…those nightmares of yours… ate them."

Backing off at the golden glint Nabiki saw in Ranma's eyes she sat back on her heels.

"What's happening here…."

"Something that shouldn't be happening, what happened last night never happened. As far as your involvement goes you left the nightclub and arrived home without incident. I'm sorry but that is the way it has to be for now."

"How will you stop people from asking why people are going missing?"

"Terrorists taking hostages."

Nodding her head Nabiki realised the chaos that would happen should word get around, then she heard footsteps behind her and saw it was Akane in her morning running clothes.

`Shit.'

Overhearing the part about not speaking of what happened last night Akane assumed the man sitting in front of her sister was talking about having done something ecchi to her sister.

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY SISTER YOU PERVERT!!!!"

Picking the table up and raising it behind her head Akane prepared to smash the face of the pervert into the ground.

"*CLICK*"

Freezing in mid action Akane's eyes went cross-eyed as she stared down the barrel of an extremely large gun placed against her nose.

"Alright, you primitive screwhead, listen up: THIS... is my BOOM STICK! You do not want to fuck with me. Now drop the table or else I will make you drop it."

Growling through gritted teeth Akane raised the table higher.

"How dare you!!! Threaten me in my own house; you're a pervert and it's a martial artists' duty to protect the innocent."

Eyes flaring in anger at the audacity of this girl Ranma could see the lack of control that a true martial artist has, he could see she was a wannabe more of a bully than a true practitioner of the art.

Eyes flaring with black lighting Ranma bored his eyes into Akane. Ranma never did like people who abused power. Created an aura of menace, one that entered the soul of the victim and displayed part of his dark heritage caused the victims to know true fear.

"I don't like you."

Scared by Ranma's actions Akane dropped the table behind her head and began to stumble backwards out of the room. Falling on to her back as she tripped over the table before scrambling back up and dashing up the stairs.

Staring at Ranma dumbstruck Nabiki couldn't get the image of Akane the eternal man hater running away like that.

"I can understand you being angry but wasn't that a bit much?"

Dropping the aura and masking his power again Ranma turned back to Nabiki.

"I've been getting that a lot lately… and no my actions weren't excessive, your sister had it coming."

"I agree with you there, ever since I left for university Akane has always been acting like a spoiled brat. She did need to be taken down a peg or two."

Heading towards the hallway Ranma turned back to face Nabiki.

"I feel we have an understanding Miss Tendo. If you have any questions you can find me at the gym in Furinkan High School."

Walking down the hallway Ranma came across Kasumi sweeping the floor.

"Leaving already Wingates-san?"

"Yes Nabiki confirmed her statement last night, it all seems fine. I bid you good day Kasumi-san."

Watching Ranma leave the front gate Kasumi turned to the creaking of the floorboard behind her.

"Oh Mister Saotome, Father what are you doing up so early."

"Saotome thought he heard the voice of his son a few moments ago."

"Yes oh the shame of that worthless boy surrendering himself to the black arts…wahhhhh."

"There, there Saotome I'm sure we'll meet him again and then we'll convince him to unite the two schools."

Supporting each other the two men stumbled into the dinning area to wait for Kasumi to serve them breakfast and some green tea.

Turning to face the direction Ranma left a dark sultry smile came across Kasumi's face as she watched Ranma walk out the gates after seeing Akane dash to her room in fear.

For a brief moment black tattoos appeared on her face before fading away as Kasumi's normal radiant smile reasserted itself.

***

Strolling down the brightening street Ranma was lost in his own thoughts.

`Strange, I could almost feel a familiar presence… almost like Oyaji was there…nahhhhh the worthless piece of human trash would stay a hundred miles away from any sign of danger.'

Shrugging his thoughts Ranma continued down the walkway towards Furinkan High School.

***

Walking into the open area of the schools' front yard Ranma saw the member's of Red Section having their breakfast around the machine gun nests next to the doorway of the gym.

"I'll tell you what your problem is Yoshi, you don't like me because you're a racist!"

"What?!"

Pointing an accusing fork at Yoshida Smith got into a holier than thou pose.

"You're a racist! You don't like me because I'm white!"

"I don't like you because you're going to get me *killed*!"

"Oh…you don't trust me at all, do you?"

"Well, I'll tell you what. You make it through tomorrow without killing anybody, especially me, or yourself, then I'll start trusting you."

"Fair enough."

Watching the banter of his friends Ranma smiled at the constant antics of the two, even in the middle of a firefight they can be arguing over bets or telling each other how much the world sucks for them being in it. Ranma wouldn't have it any other way.

`God I hope these two never get the proper motivation to join politics.'

Shivering at the thought Ranma raised his voice over the din of breakfast.

"Corporal Smith on me."

"Hey ya here that Smith he wants you."

"Fuck you."

"Corporal Yoshida two hundred push-ups"

Dropping his plate of Wheat Bixs Smith came to attention in front of Ranma. While the rest of the men began to count aloud the number of push-ups Yoshida was up to.

"Yes Sarge."

"After breakfast I want you to take Red Section in to the intelligence section of the gym and rifle through the data Blue Section separated and bring anything of any value to my attention. But before doing so move the body bags into the refrigeration unit the JSSDF have behind the gym, try to clean up any signs of blood; I don't want to expose the students to anything unnecessary. If you find anything you can reach me on the tac net."

"Yes Sergeant….ummm Sarge how do we explain the place being fucked up the way it is?"

"Tell them it was a drive by shooting by the terrorists."

"Yes Sergeant."

***

Somewhere in the Sea of Japan…

Standing next to the porthole of the ship covered in wet-weather clothing a figure stared out into the stormy seas.

"That fat-man will pay great grandmother."

"*BOP*"

"Start using Japanese Shampoo you must start practicing otherwise you'll never make a good matriarch."

"Yes great grandma."

"Do not worry he will pay for disgracing the Amazons. That is why we are bringing the hunting party"

"How we know where he go?"

"He spoke Japanese and was headed in this direction, the only problem is we must contend with the other two tribes for his head. But one benefit is that after hundreds of years of war the three tribes of Jusenkyo are finally cooperating for one goal; the death of that man."

Glaring at the choppy seas Shampoo remembered that fateful day.

***

Several months ago…

Knocking Dowel off the tournament log Shampoo turned to receive her victory banquet to see an obese man feasting on her prize.

`How dare he!!!'

Raising her Bon Bori she hurled it at the man's face only to have him look up at the last moment and dodge out of the way and start running away pushing men and women out of the way on his mad dash towards the gate.

Jumping down Shampoo raised her voice in a battle cry and charged after the fleeing man, gathering numerous warriors on her way, all intent on the death of the fat man.

***

Coming to a stop on top of the cliff overlooking the valley of cursed springs Shampoo saw a boy dressed in a red yakuta chase the fat man over a cliff face and into one of the springs.

Smiling in satisfaction Shampoo watched in anticipation with her fellow sisters waiting to see what the fat fool cursed himself into.

But before she new it shadows filled the sky as a flight of phoenix landed next to the springs. Followed by a pack of Musk exiting the forest next to the springs.

Looking in dismay as the two respective parties began to face off against each other. Shampoo signalled for her hunting party to leap down next them causing the phoenix and Musk to stop and think about the coincidence of the three tribes entering the neutral ground at the same time.

"Why are you here?"

Eyeing each other the three parties surrounded the spring that Genma fell into.

Wary of each other the leaders of each hunting party stepped forward. A woman dressed in battle armour holding her spear to the side gestured toward the spring, her wings flapping to emphasise her statement.

"I am Kiima, protector of Lord Saffron and this infidel was caught attempting to enter our sacred grounds."

Growling a man dressed in tiger skins slammed the butt of his axe into the ground.

"I am Tigar Captain of the Royal and this man pushed Prince Herb into the spring of drowned woman. For his actions he will die."

"And I am Shampoo heir of the Amazons claim this man as our because he has disgraced a holy ceremony."

Looking at the other two leaders Kiima glanced towards the spring.

"It appears we have a common goal, I suggest we let our leaders discuss the matter, rather than shedding blood over this useless man."

Nodding her head in agreement Shampoo gestured towards the group Amazons behind sending one of them back to the village.

"Agreed, first let us detain him and send our runners to our tribes to gather our elders."

Before anything more could be said a blur shot out of that spring knocking the leaders into the air to land in their own respective springs.

Unknown to the tribes Inu Yasha had leapt down next to the fallen Shikon Shard and retrieved it fading back into the shadows to watch the events unfold.

Coming out of the water Shampoo began to swim towards the edge of the spring. By the time she got there she was breathing hard, Shampoo didn't realise how large the spring was. Rolling on to her back she came face to face with the gigantic face of Ling Ling.

`Huh?'

The only problem was her question came out as a prrrr. Fearing the worst Shampoo raised her hand to her face and saw a paw. Screaming in shock Shampoo blacked out as more faces appeared over her.

***

Back to the present…

Holding her fist in front of her Shampoo let out growl drawing a tiny rivulet of blood as her nails bit into her palm.

`That man will pay for cursing me, even though I don't know what his curse is, I will make him pay!!!'

Stepping away from the porthole Shampoo walked passed the forlorn looking Kiima and steaming Tigar as they sat in their cots' brooding. Coming to her cot Shampoo laid down and closed her eyes to dream of her eventual revenge. Dozing off to the sway of the ship as it combated the stormy sea.

***

Furinkan…

Sitting under the tree that was next to the entrance Ranma watched as students made their way into their morning classes unaware of the violence that had befallen the JSSDF men the previous night.

In his half dazed state Ranma managed to catch a few students looking curiously at the bullet holes in the ground on the school walls, some even openly stared at his armed presence under the tree.

Looking towards the commotion at the front gate Ranma saw Nabiki's sister, Akane entering the gates while shoving a boy dressed in the a traditional kendo uniform away from herself.

In the corner of his eye he could see Knight Riley approaching the disturbance who was doing his rounds after eating his breakfast.

"But my fierce tigress Akane Tendo, thou has earned the right to date my glorious self."

"I said go away Kuno."

Finally reaching the disturbance Riley saw a girl being harassed by a boy dressed in a gaudy outfit.

"Excuse young man but would you please desist from harassing this young lady."

Placing his hand on Akane's shoulder Riley drew her away from Kuno.

"Unhand Akane Tendo nave."

Glaring at the boy Riley pulled Akane behind himself.

"Do not make me detain you, I would suggest backing off and leaving this be young man."

Placing his hand on his rifle Riley glared at Kuno before turning around at the low grumbling emanating from the girl.

"I am a martial artist and I don't need your help!!!"

"Huh?"

Raising her fist Akane backhanded Riley in the cheek sending him flying into the concrete wall impacting with a meaty thump.

"Serves the pervert right, he was probably helping me so he could seduce me later on…. hah I know better than to fall for cheap tricks like that!!!"

Staring shocked at Akane the surrounding students began to back away.

"What's wrong Sayuri? Yuka?"

"Akane you just hit a soldier!"

"So what he was a being a pervert."

Standing bolt still Ranma felt the unbridled rage come from the sword and from within himself. His vampiric heritage taking hold of his physical form as he willingly released it. Canines extending and nails turning into claws were the more obvious side effects.

"Sarge! This is Andy I'm on sniper duty and I just saw a girl smack down Riley, requesting permission to fire."

"Negative corporal, I saw it too. Provide suppressing fire should it go out of hand. Smith I want Red Section at the gates with a medic on the double. Man down Copy that!"

"Yes Sergeant!!!"

Pulling his Desert Eagle out of its holster Ranma aimed at Akane.

Growling Ranma drew Akane's attention to himself.

"I told you not to fuck with me bitch."

Ranma's deep voice carried across the yard causing everyone to pause as Akane stared at the gun same gun pointed at her from earlier on in the morning.

Mustering her courage Akane stared defiantly back at Ranma knowing he wouldn't shoot a student in public.

Turning to look at the crowd Ranma's malevolent smirk appeared on his face.

"Planning on using the crowd as a shield Akane, well it is also a double edged sword."

Addressing the crowd Ranma began to slowly approach Akane, gun still aimed.

"You are all witness to the attack of a military soldier, this is what happens to you when you fuck with the law."

"*BLAM*!!!"

Akane fell to the ground in a shriek of pain as a fountain of blood exploded from her left leg. Rolling around in pain Akane continued to wail in anguish.

"I am the law….and no one fucks with the law."

Returning the gun to its holster Ranma drew the Sword of Truth slowly; it's unique metallic ringing filling the courtyard as students stood still in shock.

Bending down to raise Akane by the hair Ranma raised her to his eye level. Being so close to Ranma Akane could finally see the needle sharp teeth and demonic glint in Ranma's eyes…to put it simply she was afraid.

"Consider this adequate retribution for this morning and what you just did."

In a deft slash Ranma brought the sword past Akane's head, send some of the surrounding girls into shrieks of terror expecting to see Akane's head role off her body.

Instead most of Akane's hair fluttered to the ground to be blown across the yard. Feeling his hatred for the girl he had only met twice Ranma came to the conclusion that what Akane was receiving was justice.

"How dare you harm the fare Akane Tendo! Prepare to die peasant!!!"

Reaching his hands to the skies Ranma had the `why me?' look on his face before it hardened and the golden flecks in his eyes became dominant as most of the anger he had released in removing Akane's hair came back to the surface as Kuno charged at him with his wooden sword.

Finding no real threat in Kuno Ranma re-sheathed the Katana and began rummaging through his pockets.

`I know I left a grenade in here somewhere.'

Reaching into his pocket Ranma pulled out the mobile phone he had acquired all those months ago and stared at it until recognition lit his eyes.

`Haven't used this in a while.'

Winding back Ranma hurled the phone at Kuno's face shattering his nose and sending spurts of blood into the air as Kuno's headlong charge was reversed into a flight into the concrete wall a few hundred metres in the opposite direction, ironically hitting the spot where Ranma's power wave pulped the ghouls the previous night.

Walking over to the phone Ranma picked it up and flicked the cover off and pressed a few buttons receiving a healthy beep for his troubles.

"Cool it still works."

Pocketing the phone Ranma began to walk towards Kuno's imbedded form.

Managing to pull himself out of his indentation and with shaking hands raised his boken into a guard position; Kuno began to stagger towards Ranma in another charge.

"Insolent whelp how dare you lay hands on one of noble birth."

"Were you born worthless or did you have to work at it?"

"How dare you!!!!"

Shattering Kuno's wrist with his boot Ranma did a rising round house into Kuno's chin sending him into the air to land on the statue of a man with a pineapple on his head.

Hearing the thumping of running feet Ranma turned to see the members of Red Section surrounding Akane and Kuno while a medic attended to Riley as Smith approached himself.

"Looks like you handled the situation Sarge, we also managed to uncover some data concerning possible vampire night clubs operating within Nerima, the data is on the table in the INTEL room."

Calming down Ranma glared at the two prone figures.

"I want those to detained, inform me of Riley's condition as soon as you're finished with finding a place to throw those two into. I will be in the gym reviewing the data you compiled. Good work."

Turning to leave Ranma saw a girl in a yellow dress approach him.

"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING!!!"

Looking down at the little girl Ranma crouched done onto his knees to come to her eye level.

"These two violated the law, I was merely carrying out the punishment."

"You're a vigilante and should be arrested."

"Sue me."

Walking away from Hinako Ranma failed to see her point the Yen piece at his back. Glaring at Ranma Hinako prepared to drain Ranma regardless of his stature as a soldier.

"*BANG*!!!"

Staring dumbfounded at her now empty fingers Hinako looked toward the gym where she saw the man pointing a gun in her direction. Glancing down at her chest she saw a red dot hovering above her heart perfectly still.

Stopping a distance from her Ranma began to speak with his back to her.

"I wouldn't suggest ever doing that again or else the coin will not be the one to get shot. I can understand your distress at my actions but they were justified. Your students will be returned in due time once they have been disciplined. Good day sensei."

Continuing on his path Ranma walked past the sea of students, which parted for him like the Red Sea did for Moses.

***

Lunchtime…

Hearing the rumble of military trucks Ranma left the files on the desk while he exited the gym to stand next to the members of Green Section who had just woken up for their shift.

Watching the 4 trucks enter the school grounds Ranma saw a Captain exit the lead truck and approach him with his two subordinates while the men in the trucks began to unload their equipment.

"Good day sergeant where is your commanding officer?"

Shaking hands with the man Ranma assessed the stern looking man.

"I am in command of this platoon, Knight Sergeant Ranma Wingates Hellsing."

Recognising the name of Hellsing Captain Shigeru looked Ranma in a new light.

"Captain Aoba Shigeru, commanding officer of the 15th Strike Force stationed in Kyoto."

Catching Shigeru's curious glance at the sword on Ranma's back Ranma smiled as he replied with a small chuckle.

"Oh this little thing….I like to keep this handy for close encounters….hehehe…."

Sobering up Ranma lowered his head.

"I am sorry about what happened your brother Company stationed here, I only wish we arrived earlier."

"If you came earlier your men would have only added to the death toll. Sergeant you avenged those men and put their souls to rest, you have done everything that a man could do in such in a situation.

You are probably thinking that we don't have a clue about what we face but remember we are as much a combat unit as you Hellsing Knights and we are all aware of the stakes involved in this game and have been fighting these vampires for the past few weeks on a constant basis."

"I'm glad we see eye to eye Captain, when will the rest of your Company arrive? What do you know of what is happening here."

"I have brought one platoon and the support staff like the cooks, medics and adjutants. The rest of the company along with the supplies should be arriving tomorrow. As for knowing what's happening here; all the data was lost when we lost contact with the Company stationed here."

"Since arriving here I've had my men salvaging the data and have discovered gathering points for the vampires. Apparently the Valentine brothers are the using their vampire powers to bring Nerima under their control. I plan on putting an end to their business tonight, I would appreciate it if you sealed the combat zone and patrolled the lines."

"Very well Sergeant, I will station one of my sections here on guard duty with the support staff and shall accompany you with the other two sections to rid us of this evil."

Shaking hands Ranma and Shigeru entered the gym to plan for the coming missions later on in the night.

***

Standing in front of the knights Ranma prepared to outline the battle plans for the night attack.

"Listen up knights, Red and Blue sections will breach the night club. The two JSSDF sections accompanying us will guard the perimeter with Green Section.

We will enter the compound; crush, kill, destroy anything that isn't human. No mercy shall be given.

It's payback time men. Load up and move out."

"Hooyah!!!!"

Rising up from their seats the men cheered as they charged towards the APC's that would transport them to the night club.

***

Staring in shock at the sudden approach of men dressed in night combat fatigues carrying large automatic weapons the bouncer stood up from his chair and reached for his Uzi.

Raising his Desert Eagle Ranma shot the bouncer between the eyes reducing the man to sparkling motes of dust.

Noticing the way the vampire died Andy perked up.

"Hey check it out guys, they're turned vampires. This is gonna be fun."

Looking down at their large calibre weapons that they brought in anticipation of facing off against the new breed of vampire the men began to chuckle evilly at the prospect of using heavy fire arms against normal vampires.

Feeling around the solid steel doorway Ranma looked for a keyhole or door nob that may have been hidden in order to allow entry.

"Maybe I should have asked the bouncer before killing him…. oh well I guess knocking might work."

"*TAP TAP*"

Opening the hidden eye slit a bouncer stared at the gun barrel that was shoved into his face.

"Knock, knock."

Eyes widening in shock the bouncer attempted to hit the emergency button.

"*BLAM*!!!"

Turning to the knights behind him Ranma gave the thumbs up.

"See I told you courtesy wasn't dead."

Sweating a bit Yoshida shook his head.

"Ya Sarge, if you call courtesy knocking on the door before blowing their brains out I'd hate to think what your idea of bad behaviour is…besides the door is still closed."

"Easily solved."

Placing a lump of plasticine on the door Ranma attached an electronic device to it before walking around the corner of the hallway.

Following Ranma's lead the rest of the sections also took their own cover.

"You're only supposed to blow the bloody doors off! Not blow the shit out of the building with enough C4 to make Hitler sweat in his bunker."

"Meh."

Pushing the red button Ranma smiled.

"*CLICK*"

"*BOOOOOOOM*!!!!"

Walking around the corner Ranma stepped past the blasted remains of the door and entered the dance floor where an assortment of vampires were aiming firearms at him.

"Welcome Hellsing to our little party."

Running to catch up with Ranma the knights took prone firing positions behind him. Looking at the sheer number of vampires positioned on the second floor and dance floors armed to the teeth some of the men said their final prayers; Smith summed the common thought of the knights.

"We're fucked."

Glaring at Smith Yoshida took aim at the vampires on the floor.

"Shuddup Smith."

Looking at Yoshida Smith began to whisper quietly.

"We both know why I was transferred. Everyone thinks I'm suicidal, in which case, I'm fucked and nobody wants to work with me; or they think I'm faking to draw a psycho pension, in which case, I'm fucked and nobody wants to work with me. Basically, I'm fucked."

"Guess what Smith?"

Looking to his left Yoshida saw Smith aiming his Browning M-60 at the vampires on the rafters.

"What?"

"I don't want to work with you! You're bad luck, besides what does you being suicidal have to do with this."

Pumping his OICW chambered a HE round into its grenade launcher.

"Fucked if I know I just wanted to say something before I die and if you don't like it don't work with me then."

"Ain't got no choice! Looks like we both are fucked!"

"Terrific."

Looking up into the `sky' Yoshida shook his fist at it.

"God hates me. That's what it is."

" Hate him back; it works for me."

Phasing out the nervous talk of his men Ranma focused on the leader behind the group of vampires on the floor.

"What do you want?"

"Simple really, I want you to die."

Recognising the voice of the man standing behind the armed henchmen Ranma grabbed the handle of the Sword of Truth. Grasping his sword Ranma felt its power surge forth and mix with his own vampiric powers.

"You!!! I know your voice from this morning at the school. It was you that killed the JSSDF Company!!!"

"It doesn't matter you're all going to die here."

"YAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!"

Drawing his sword and driving the sword into the ground in front of him a dark barrier split the room in half protecting the knights from the onslaught of bullets that erupted from the vampires' on the rafters and on the floor.

***

Staring at the dark barrier in front of them the knights breathed a sigh of relief as the bullets from the vampires caused ripples from their impacts on the barrier instead of tearing them to pieces.

"It's all well and good that we're not getting shot to pieces Sarge but how're we suppose to waste their fuck'in asses if we can't get to them."

"Simple Andy, I can enter my barrier and pass through it. I cannot allow you men to fight now; too many of you may die. Besides this is the kind of situation why mom placed me in this unit to handle."

Walking towards the barrier Ranma felt the arms of his men holding him back.

"Sarge don't go you'll die."

"You forgot one thing Smith… I'm already dead."

Turning around to face the knights before entering the barrier Ranma gave his Alucard smirk.

"I'll be back."

Shit I just realised there's a lot of people reading this crazy fic. On a side note I won't be posting for the next two weeks, going on holiday…. sorry guys (don't have a laptop so I can't keep on typing). ^_^

Although I will be writing the old fashion way and developing the plot more on paper so expect a lot action filled episodes when I get back…considering at a leisure speed I can type 60kb in two days so once I get back I'll be posting pretty frequently.

Review away fanfic readers. I'll try to respond as best I can from those computer cafes Australia seems to be getting know days.

Paalam
