"It could just be a fly or something setting off the sensors,
but I need to make sure the kids didn't find their way in. Last
thing I want is for someone to end up getting into something
dangerous." Those were Kindron's words as he walks with Akiba
and Flynn towards his lab.
It was another day at Hellsing. There were many people staying
at Hellsing at this point (mostly alternates with nowhere else
to stay), but most of them knew the routine by now. However,
there was one part of Hellsing that most people stayed away
from. Not because it was taboo or anything, but just because of
the area it was in having some dangerous materials.
That area was the labs where those like Kindron had their labs.
Ever since Kindron had moved to Darkfire-Tolodora Technologies,
he hadn't spent much time at his lab in Hellsing, so most of the
projects in his lab were older projects. Even though he had
always planned on coming back to at some point, Kindron always
had other projects to work on between Darkfire-Tolodora
Technologies and Red Brand Foods.
As Akiba, Kindron and Flynn walk into Kindron's lab, they see
someone standing in the middle of the room in front of the
table, which was the last thing they were expecting.
Kindron didn't know who this person was, but Akiba and Flynn
almost instantly recognized the man standing in the center of
the room.
Man: Hello, John... He says to Akiba as he holds a pistol at his
side in one hand and his single sword drawn and at the ready in
his other hand. The man was wearing a combat outfit, along with
a helmet that weirdly didn't have an eye hole on one side.
Akiba stops for a moment, his blood running cold at the sight of
the man.
Akiba: Slade... He mutters, shaking from both fear and anger,
recognizing the man as Slade Wilson, yet another part of his
past that had come back.
Slade: I'm a ghost, here to haunt you and your friends. He says
menacingly.
Kindron, confused, leans over to Akiba and Flynn.
Kindron: Hey... Who's John? He asks, completely lost.
Akiba groans in annoyance as he face-palms at Kindron's
question. Akiba: Kindron... John is my real name. John Hellsing.
Akiba is just my nickname. He says sarcastically. Though his
real name was John Hellsing, he went by Akiba at one point to
avoid people confusing him with John Van Hellsing.
Flynn: Wow... Way to take the tension out of the moment... He
says to Kindron sarcastically.
Slade chuckles. Slade: So you're Kindron Darkfire... You're
different from the version of you in our world... The one I
killed. He says to Kindron. Kindron clenches his fists at the
mention of CM Kindron. And don't worry. I know how you brought
him back. I plan to visit him again as well. He says sinisterly,
noticing Kindron's unease.
Flynn: You look good for a dead man, Slade. I see that eye Akiba
shot out is still... shot out... He says jokingly to Slade,
pointing at the part of the mask that was covering the eye where
Akiba had shot him through the eye had no eye hole.
Slade: Flynn Hunter... Always with the jokes. I see the super
soldier serum didn't change you like it did me. He says to
Flynn. And yes... He puts his hand over his helmet where his
missing eye was. Though I healed, my eye doesn't grow back.
Kindron summons Shinso, his blade, and draws it. Kindron: This
guy is an enemy right?
Flynn draws his swords, ready. Flynn: Oh yeah. Shoot to kill on
this a*shole. He says to Kindron.
Slade: I'm not normally one to shoot first. But today I'll make
an exception... He says as he starts shooting his pistol at the
group.
Flynn, Akiba and Kindron all duck out of the way, dodging to the
side as Slade starts shooting. The three take cover in the sides
of the room as Slade runs out of bullets after emptying his
clip. Kindron tries to use his magnetic manipulation to affect
Slade, but something blocked him as Kindron wasn't able to
affect Slade or his weapons.
Flynn was the first to get close as he jumps out, and tries to
attack. However, Slade uses his sword to block Flynn's sword
strikes. Even though Slade only had one sword and Flynn had two,
Slade still manages to stay ahead of Flynn's sword strikes. As
Akiba runs in and tries to attack Slade, Slade kicks Akiba to
the side and hits Flynn with the hilt of his sword to knock him
back into the wall.
As the two are knocked back, Kindron jumps in to try and attack
Slade, using Shinso. Since they were in an enclosed space,
Kindron couldn't use his other, more bulky swords. Kindron
clashes swords with Slade, and the two dual, trading sword
strikes, for a moment before Slade knocks Shinso out of
Kindron's hands and punches him hard. Kindron is sent flying
back into the shelves with glass and chemicals on it. The sound
of shattering glass can be heard as Kindron gets up and tries to
attack Slade again, this time trying to use martial arts. Slade
manages to dodge all of Kindron's attacks, and even catches
Kindron's fist when Kindron tries to pour his power into a power
strike, which surprises Kindron since not many could keep up
with his raw werepyre strength and speed.
Slade: You're pretty strong, kid. He says to Kindron, still
holding him back. He then grabs Kindron and throws him into
another shelving unit, knocking everything over and raining
glass down on Kindron. Thankfully, the glass doesn't do any
permanent damage, but the glass does cut Kindron, and some of
the chemicals leak on Kindron's clothes and dissolve his shirt.
Kindron: I'm over 500 years old, a*shole... I'm pretty sure I'm
older than you. He says to Slade sarcastically as he tries to
recover, pulling the glass from his wounds.
Slade: 500 years and still an amateur? You should train harder,
kid... Your form is garbage. He says condescendingly to Kindron.
Though Kindron was far more experienced, it seemed like Slade
was still able to beat him in hand to hand combat.
Flynn tries to jump up and attack Slade again, using his two
swords. However, Slade just Sparta kicks Flynn, sending him
flying back into the wall. The impact knocked the wind out of
Flynn, and Slade reloads his pistol and shoots Flynn in the head
and chest, causing Flynn to slump over. Thankfully, the bullets
didn't negate Flynn's healing, but did stop him for a bit since
the shots were fatal.
Kindron gets up and attacks again, grabbing his sword and
attacking. At this point, Slade's comment angered Kindron, and
he got sloppy as he tries to attack Slade out of rage. However,
Slade just pulls his sword to slash Kindron's chest (Not a fatal
slash, but one that did pierce Kindron's tough skin) and kick
Kindron's sword out of his hand. Once Kindron was unarmed, Slade
slams his sword into the table and starts punching Kindron over
and over again, beating him up as he knocks him against the wall
and then throws him across the room again into another wall.
This time, Slade had used a two handed throw, and had thrown
Kindron with far more force than before. Kindron lays on the
floor, spitting blood from the beating he took, and was barely
able to move as his wounds weren't currently regenerating due to
the sword Slade had cut him with being carbonadium, a metal that
negates supernatural and technological regeneration.
Akiba, who was finally up again, grabs a small piple and attacks
Slade using his Eskrima training. Slade pulls his sword from the
table and blocks Akiba's strikes, parrying Akiba perfectly. The
two trade blows, with Slade predicting and blocking all the
attacks Akiba could throw at him. Akiba knocks Slade's sword out
of his hand, but Slade grabs the piple Akiba was using and
bashes him across the face with it and knocks Akiba down. As
Akiba is knocked down, Slade drops his knee onto Akiba's chest,
causing Akiba to scream in pain as he feels some of his ribs
shatter from the knee drop.
While kneeing Akiba in the chest to hold him down, Slade leans
down to Akiba's ear as he picks up his sword and whispers to
Akiba. Slade: Don't forget who helped teach you how to fight,
kid. He says as he jumps up and grabs his sword.
Flynn slowly gets up, his wounds healing as the bullets were
forced out of his wounds.
The lights go out for a moment as Slade throws a knife at the
light, and when the backup lights come on a moment later, Slade
was gone.
Kindron coughs up blood as he tries to move away from the glass
all over the floor. Kindron: What the h*ll was that?! He says,
still coughing and unable to move well. He slowly tries to get
to his knees.
Akiba holds his ribs, groaning in pain. The adrenaline was
keeping him from completely feeling the pain, but he was in
pain.
Flynn gets to his feet first, having regenerated his wounds.
Flynn goes over to Akiba, noticing Akiba was having more
problems than Kindron was trying to get up.
Flynn: What was Slade even doing here? He says, curious.
Akiba: Slade... never does anything... without a plan. He
didn't... pick this lab... by accident. He gets out, his voice
cracked from the pain he was in.
Kindron: What? You mean kicking our a*ses on our own turf and
asserting his dominance wasn't his main goal? He says
sarcastically, gritting his teeth through the pain.
Akiba: No way... He was here... for a reason. He says as he
tries to stay conscious.
Kindron: Darn. With all the mess, it's going to take me weeks to
figure out what was all here and what is missing. He says as his
wounds finally start to heal, as the carbonadium damage he took
earlier started to wear off. He uses the counters for support as
he tries to get to his feet.
Flynn: Then get to work... Because we need to know what he was
here for. He says to Kindron.
Kindron walks along the counters, holding them to keep himself
upright, still spitting blood. Kindron: Yeah, I'll get right on
that. He says sarcastically to Flynn. Grab my sister (Kierra)...
You need to heal Akiba. My wounds are regenerating. And I'm
guessing yours already regenerated. He says to Flynn.
Flynn: Yeah, I'm okay. I'll go find some help. He says as he
takes Akiba out of the room, followed by Kindron who was slowly
following behind.
A few days later.
Aftermath Theme: Secret Destiny (

)
Akiba was in a recovery bed in the infirmary, still recovering.
Though he had been healed of his injuries, it had taken longer
to heal him safely do to how broken his ribs were and the
beating he had taken from Slade.
Kindron walks in. Kindron: How do you feel? He asks Akiba.
Akiba chuckles. A bit better. I'm not in pain anymore, so that's
good. Your sister is a pretty good healer.
Kindron just laughs a bit. Kindron: Yeah... Kierra's job in the
alchemist society is healer. So she's way more skilled at
bioalchemy than most alchemists and knows a lot more about
healing people than anyone I've ever met.
Akiba: So? Did you find anything? He says, remembering Slade's
attack.
Kindron: Yes... I had my AI companion, Luxion, do some scans of
the lab. There were traces of some kind of harmless radiation
that distorted the sensors so they wouldn't pick him up. That
must be why he didn't trigger the sensors, and why Phoebe didn't
detect him while he was fighting us. It's hard to explain... He
must have used something else to trigger the sensors to lure us
there. And I'm sure someone like him could avoid the drones and
cameras if he knew where they were. My lab is one of the few
places without a camera, and I'm guessing he knew that. He
definitely studied Hellsing from a distance, or had someone who
knew Hellsing's layout. He looks to Akiba and Flynn.
Akiba: Slade's always been resourceful, I'll give him that... He
says sarcastically. He's good at infiltration, almost as good as
he is at killing people. And he is the type to always know his
opponents, so if he was going to attack Hellsing, he'd study us
first before going in.
Kindron finds a spot to sit down. Kindron: Well, Luxion is
working with Phoebe try to and figure out how to detect him if
he tries to pull this trick again. Hopefully, we'll detect him
next time. Whatever radiation he used to distort the sensors
should hopefully be detected next time. It was harmless and only
in very small traces, so I'm guessing Phoebe didn't think
anything of it. Probably thought it was energy from one of the
residents left behind. A lot of people run through these halls,
so it's not always easy to dissect who's energy belongs to who
when its detected.
Akiba: What about your lab? Please tell me you know if
anything's missing. He says to Kindron.
Kindron sighs. Kindron: Maybe. I noticed a few things missing in
my lab that are unaccounted for. I'm still going through
everything and trying to account for everything, though. But a
few things were strangely missing that shouldn't have been.
Akiba: I knew it... He says with a sigh. I knew he was up to
something.
Kindron: To start with... My spyrix samples are gone. They were
in a safe that wasn't affected by the fight. The safe was
locked, and the safe wasn't damaged, but my samples were still
gone. The fight didn't disturb the safe, so the stuff inside
shouldn't have been disturbed.
Flynn: Spyrix... What does that do again? He says to Kindron.
Kindron: It's a material that naturally gives off spirit
destruction energy. It can be used as a power source for
technology generating a lot of power, or it can just be used to
outright destroy spirits. But it's dangerous, because the
radiation from it doesn't just destroy spirits, it can destroy
someone's soul with enough exposure. But it takes a decent
amount of exposure.
Akiba: I don't even want to imagine what he might use that
for... he says, wincing, realizing just how bad things could get
if Slade were to kill any of his family or friends and then use
spyrix's spirit destruction to destroy their souls.
Kindron: But that wasn't all. He also took some of my old mana
formulas. They were mana amplification formulas designed for
energy weapons. I designed the originals for Hei's guns I made
for him, and the weapons I made for Alucard and Raven. But they
can also amplify the abilities of people by amplifying their
mana, which I originally gave to Akuto, Lily and Integra to help
boost their mana abilities. I developed not only normal mana
formulas, but holy and dark mana formula variants as well.
Akiba sighs. Akiba: Great. Just what he needs. Something to
amplify himself further.
Kindron: But that still wasn't all.
Flynn: Dude... Seriously? What else could he have taken?
Kindron: Yes. Seriously. He says to Flynn. The next thing on the
list I suspect was stolen were some bonding chemicals I
developed. They were originally used for my mana formulas. With
the mana formulas, they could be used to bond other aspects to
the formula, like bonding energy to the mana in the mana
formulas. The problem is, some of the chemicals vials in my lab
were broken during the fight. So I can't confirm that the vials
weren't broken in the fight. But if he did steal them, then the
bonding agent could be used with certain other formulas or
energies to enhance the mana formulas.
Akiba has a thought. Akiba: Or bond another enhancement
formula... The Mirakuru. He says to himself.
Kindron: What's the Mirakuru? Seriously, I feel like I don't
know anything about what's going on... he says sarcastically to
Akiba.
Akiba: Slade was enhanced with the Mirakuru serum. It was a
super soldier serum. It turned him into the monster he is now
and gave him that strength he has now. In our world, he worked
with the Order in order to recreate that serum because he was
going to give it to those that followed him so he could create
an army of super soldiers. If he's human and that strong with
the Mirakuru, imagine him giving it to not just the humans, but
the werewolves and vampires who follow him... He could create an
army of super soldier vampires, werewolves and humans loyal to
him.
Kindron's face goes pale. Kindron: Oh... he says simply.
Akiba: With the mana formula, if he bonds that in, who knows how
strong he could push that Mirakuru formula. And Flynn is proof
that he can make a version without the same mental issues he
suffers. Slade's formula made him unstable, but the stuff used
on Flynn didn't hit him the same way, which means the Order
probably figured out the formula.
Flynn: Yeah, the Order had mostly perfected the formula when
they tested it on me. And I wanna guess that Slade could get
that formula.
Kindron: Wow. I'm already scared and I haven't even gotten to
the last thing on my list. But knowing he has werewolevs and
vampires who follow him, make this last one make sense...
Flynn: Dude. Was there anything LEFT in your labs? I know Slade
is strong, but dude would need a cart to carry out all this
stuff... He says sarcastically, having a hard time believing
that all this stuff was stolen by Slade.
Akiba: Either that or he had help... I doubt he was doing this
alone. I'm sure his son and some of the people who joined up
with him probably helped him.
Kindron: Well, I don't know about that. I do know the last thing
I noticed missing was the old artificial food I was working on
that I made years ago.
Akiba: Artificial food? But isn't Red Brand Foods selling their
artificial food meals in London now? What would he need to steal
that?
Kindron: No... This isn't the Red Brand foods version. This was
the old version. Before I changed the formula.
Flynn: What's the difference? He asks, confused.
Kindron: Long story. But here goes. So... When Kendrix came from
the future, he warned us of Alucard going crazy. The reason
Alucard lost control was some artificial food I made, designed
to feed vampires and werewolves. However, the old food formula
had an unintended side effect. Vampires and werewolves who ate
the food of that old formula got a boost in their abilities. It
amplified their power in addition to sustaining them without
them having to eat humans. In Kendrix's time, it made Alucard go
crazy when he tried it. And according to Kendrix, in his
timeline, vampires and werewolves sought after that food to
boost their power more than wanting it to replace their food
source of humans. So it wasn't just Alucard, but the formula
became a danger that I wasn't going to risk. After Kendrix told
us about his future, and the formula I made being so dangerous
and able to be used by werewolves and vampires to selfishly
boost their abilities, I put it away. The new formula I made
doesn't have that side effect, and it's just sustaining without
amplifying the vampire or werewolf's abilities. It took a few
years of research before I was able to safely come up with the
formula and work out the side effects. The old formula,
though...
Akiba: Still had the amplification, and was stored in your
lab... He looks to Kindron. You said Alucard goes crazy from
that formula. Can Slade still do that? Feed it to Alucard and
make him go crazy?
Kindron: Thankfully no... Kendrix took measures to make sure
that couldn't happen when he came to this timeline. Alucard is
blood bonded to Raven, so if he did lose control, she could
reign him in and help him regain control. Plus, Alucard is aware
of that formula, and would be careful around any artificial food
I make. Kendra, my niece, actually told me that in the old
future timeline, Alucard eventually regained his senses a
hundred or so years after Kendrix left his timeline to come to
this one. Supposedly, after Kendrix left his timeline, Alucard
eventually manages to kill himself enough times internally to
burn off the amplification and stabilize his mental state. And
then went on, I guess, to meet Zeph in that future and
eventually destroy the Scarlet Mist before the timeline was
erased.
Akiba: That's good at least... He says, breathing a slight sigh
of relief.
Flynn: Then why would he need it if he can't use it against us?
He has to know it's not gonna be useful against Alucard. He says
to Akiba and Kindron.
Akiba: If I had to guess... I think he's planning to enhance the
werewolves and vampires who join him or work for him. I think
he's planning to use the bonding agent to bond the old food
formula with the Mirakuru for the werewolves and vampires who
work for him. Meanwhile, the mana formulas would be used with
the Mirakuru on the humans who follow him, like his son. And
with the bonding agent he took, there's no reason he can't
create two different formulas if he gets an updated Mirakuru
formula.
Kindron: Yeah. That honestly sounds about right. He says with a
shrug.
Akiba: And to make matters worse... Slade doesn't limit himself
on who he allows to work for him. Foxhound and ARGUS sat on
opposite ends of the spectrum when it came to whether humans or
supernaturals were better in our world... In our world, Slade
had worked on both sides, both with ARGUS and with Foxhound.
Slade has humans and supernaturals from our world on his side,
and most of them were people wronged by Foxhound and/or ARGUS.
They made a lot of enemies, and Slade managed get some people on
his side who hated them, including his son, Joe. And that's not
even counting any allies he may have made in this world.
Flynn: That's great. Just great! Bad enough the jerk had the
nerve to come back to life. I would rather not have to deal with
that brat kid of his. He says with a sigh.
Akiba: It makes my blood run cold... Thinking about Slade with
an army of super soldiers, human and supernaturals. Who knows
how much damage he could do...
Kindron: So. Time to tell Integra? I really don't like where
this is going. He says with a sigh, imagining Slade with an army
of swole vampires, werewolves and humans due to the super
soldier serum.
Akiba: Yeah. It probably is... He says with a sigh. It was not a
conversation he wanted to have, especially after he told Integra
about Slade and told Integra he wouldn't be an issue since Slade
was dead.
Flynn: I'm still curious what he stole the spyrix for, though...
I wanna know where that fits into his master plan. He says
sarcastically.
Elsewhere in the London...
Meeting Theme: Mirakuru Spreads (

)
As Slade walks in, wearing a suit, he sits at the desk. As Slade
waits, his son, Joe Wilson, walks in, who was wearing his own
Deathstroke outfit that he'd had from his time with ARGUS in
their world.
Joe: Father. I secured all the stuff from the lab. Dr. Richards
is working on the new enhancements. He's already figured out how
to replicate the mana formula and the artificial food formula.
Slade: Good. I knew I could trust you to get the job done. It
seems that modification I made to your suit worked pretty well.
He says with a smile.
Joe: But you know that will only work once. Next time, they'll
have defense against the suit enhancements since you went in and
got detected. Distraction or not, they know we're here now.
Slade: I know, son. Don't worry. We got what we needed. And I
put you in charge because I knew we only had one shot. He says
with a smile. I made enough of a mess out of the lab that it
will take them quite some time to figure out what was taken. If
they figure out at all...
Joe: I'm sure they will.
Slade: Still though... He smiles. It will be nice not to have to
sneak around anymore to keep my identity hidden. Now that John
knows I'm back, I don't have to stick to the shadows and just
manipulate events from the sidelines.
Joe: I still think we should go and just kill that adopted
daughter of his. Or kill the Integra of this world. And then
there's our Kindron Darkfire, brought back... I wouldn't mind
trying my luck against Hadis al Sayf.
Slade smiles. Slade: Patience, son. You'll get your chance. I
promise you that. But Kindron Darkfire is too strong for you to
fight as you are now. So don't get ahead of yourself. He says to
Joe.
However, before the conversation can go further, Alternate
Kierran walks in.
Alternate Kierran: What are you humans doing in my office?! He
says angrily as he takes out his sword.
Slade: Easy, kid... We're on your side. We had an agreement with
your last boss, the dark spirit. He says with a smile,
condescending Alternate Kierran, which makes Alternate Kierran
grit his teeth in anger.
Alternate Kierran: No one talks to me like that! He says as he
moves toward Slade to attack.
Slade chuckles. Slade: I thought we'd have an honest talk... At
least the dark spirit (Kuroshi) could talk business... He says
jokingly.
Alternate Kierran looks to Slade with a curious expression.
Alternate Kierran: Business?
Slade: We worked with your dark spirit friend... Kuroshi? We had
a deal to recreate special enhancement formulas. Our deal was
that they create it for us, and we use to help get rid of your
enemies in Hellsing.
Alternate Kierran looks to Slade, his expression cold. Alternate
Kierran: So... You made a deal, huh? Great. If you worked for
him, then you now work for me. He says coldly, pointing his
sword at Slade.
Slade: Sorry, kid. That's not how this works... I don't work for
you. I need your resources, but my agreement was no soul trading
between him and anyone in my employ. He says, his expression
getting cold.
Alternate Kierran: No... You don't know how this works. If you
made a deal, I OWN YOU. Any deals made with that Kuroshi guy go
through me now! And I say your souls belong to me! He says
angrily as he walks toward Slade.
Slade smiles and gets up from the desk, and takes out a box. As
he flicks the lid open, the spyrix shines as Slade holds it
toward the light so it could reflect the light from the room.
Almost immediately, Alternate Kierran stumbles back, his body
affected by the spyrix.
Alternate Kierran: What are you doing? Don't you know how
dangerous that stuff is?! Enough exposure will destroy your
soul! He says to Slade.
Slade, still smiling, walks closer to Alternate Kierran, holding
the spyrix to him. Slade: I'd sooner destroy my soul than let
any of you people have it. No soul eater will stop me. He says
sarcastically. He then looks to Alternate Kierran, who was
stumbling back as his body started to suffer due to the
spiritual nature of his death wraith and hollow powers. His body
was fine since he was in human form, but his body was weakening
due to the spiritual power of his death wraith and hollow spirit
power being affected by the spyrix.
Slade: It doesn't take much does it? I guess I don't need that
iron ring or the blessed sea salt I brought with me. I actually
wasn't sure this would do the trick... He walks over and kicks
Alternate Kierran in the chest, knocking him into the wall. He
then walks over to Alternate Kierran, who was gasping for air.
Make no mistake, kid. We don't work for you. Try to control us,
and next time I won't be so merciful. He says coldly. I got this
little trinket specifically for Kuroshi. I had originally
planned on using this on him... After he screwed up with that
business at Stormstar Industries.
Alternate Kierran looks up at Slade, curious. Alternate Kierran:
Hold on... That's one of Nightshade's companies right? One of
the ones we took over? He says, remembering the incident at
Stormstar where Kuroshi revealed the head of the company as
being one of his familiars.
Slade chuckles. Slade: Curious, are we? No harm in telling you
now, I suppose... Stormstar was one of the decoy industries I
had Kuroshi take over. I masterminded a trap that was meant to
lure Hellsing in. We spread rumors of them associating and doing
illegal experiments and human trafficking. But in truth, the
decoy industries were never doing any of that. They were doing
nothing illegal and had no ties to Nightshade other than the CEO
being one of Kuroshi's familiars, and the fact Kuroshi had dark
spirits running around to give the impression there was more
going on. They were a company filled with innocent people who'd
done nothing wrong. The original plan was, using dark spirits
and a connection to the shadow realm, it was going to lure
Hellsing in to attack the buildings for their "connection" to
Nightshade. When they acted against companies like Stormstar, we
were going to turn the government against Hellsing by denying
any connection to Nightshade or the dark spirits, and take legal
action to disband Hellsing once we'd discredited them... But
that stupid dark spirit ruined my plan by revealing himself to a
bunch of kids. Because of that, he ruined the trap, and now the
decoy companies are useless since Hellsing won't take the bait
now. He smiles to Alternate Kierran. I hope you won't make a
similar mistake messing up my plans.
Joe: It's a cliche... But darn those meddling kids. He says
jokingly about remembering the Stormstar incident. Though he
didn't consider them a threat, he still recognized that
Chelsea's group had ruined a perfectly good trap and had saved
Hellsing without realizing it.
Slade leans down to Alternate Kierran. Slade: Know that if you
cross me, and don't do what I say... I will kill you. This is a
temporary arrangement, kid. One that benefits us both. And I
don't even have to kill you directly if you betray me. One
slipup, and suddenly Hellsing might find out what "86" truly
means. You have no idea how much torture it took to track you
down and learn about your organization you're building. No
matter how secret you are about this group you're building,
there's always going to be loose lips. That's why you use the
codename "86" though, isn't it... You're smart enough to know
not to give the real name of your organization so that people
will have difficulty tracking you down when no one even knows
the true name of your organization. He says to Alternate Kierran
before closing his box with the spyrix in it, and puts it away
before walking to the door. I will admit though... It took quite
a lot of effort to track you down. And the things I did to some
of your people along the way...Let's just say no one will figure
out your secret unless they're willing to go to the extremes I
went to.
Alternate Kierran gets up, recovering slowly from the effects of
the spyrix.
Alternate Kierran: You won't get away with this... I WILL hunt
you down and kill you! He yells through gritted teeth, his anger
reaching a boiling point.
Slade turns back and smiles. Slade: Go ahead and talk tough,
kid... But I need you to start producing my new super soldier
serums. So get to work. He says before walking out.
Alternate Kierran: When I tell Wong (John Wong) about this,
he'll kill you too! He says angrily.
Before walking out, standing in the doorway, Joe turns to
Alternate Kierran with a smile. Joe: Go ahead. We're not afraid
of him, or anyone in your little organization. Go tell
Nightshade, or the Witches... My father has plans for all of
you, and how to beat you. He says before walking out.
End.
