I know most of you didn't know him, but for everyone that did I wanted to let you know that my Master, Alucard, has been ported out. I haven't seen him for a few days now and the blood in the fridge I set aside for him hasn't been touched. And I know he didn't go somewhere because his coffin is still here and he wouldn't leave the city without it so he has to have been ported out.

I guess that's all really unless someone has seen him, which if you have please let me know.

[blood

coffin]

Dhd is hh h fhkhn vhmpmr?

[Huh, why does that voice sound familiar.]

Yes, he's a vampire just like me. It doesn't mean he's evil, or anything like that.

[Well, Master was a bit...dangerous maybe, but not evil.]

[that incredibly muffled voice?]

Vhmphrs dnnk blhd.

[he's pretty sure that makes a dude evil]

[If only she could hear it a little clearer.]

Donor blood! From bags like in hospital.

[IF ONLY.]

Dmm hm buy ht hr smfhmng?

No, we get it at the clinic. They're nice enough to give it to us.

Hr you h vhmphre too?

Yes and I'm also a cop too. We're not all monsters.

What?

I'm sorry, Seras.

[For her. Screw Alucard.]

Thank you.

I just...I thought he'd be here longer.

You're going to be okay though, right?

Yeah. It will be sort of lonely around the flat again, but I'll get used to it again.

You know, he'd finally stopped calling me Police Girl?

No, I didn't know that. What caused that to change?

Because I drank Captain Bernadotte's blood when I was ported home for that short bit. He was proud of me.

Because you drank, huh. Not because of anything else you did, any of the things you told me about.

Figures.

Well he did seem happy with how I dealt with the bitch that killed the Captain.

[From the way Jack sounded she knew this was probably going to lead to an argument, but she still had to defend her Master at least a little bit.]

We can agree on that much, at least.

[Time to change the subject because they have something else to argue about.]

Seras, you're not going to be seeing me in the City for a while.

You're going somewhere?

Yeah, I'm going somewhere. I don't know when I'll be back.

What do you mean?

Please tell me you're not going to try to sneak into one of the countries that signed on to that stupid act.

No, nothing like that. There's not a lot I can do about the situation right now.

It's related to the Iron Crown op. There's... there's just something I have to do, and I need to do it on my own.

I need to know you're not going to come looking for me.

Why not? What happened?

You remember how the last Dependables op was exposed earlier this year? The whole world knows I do things like what we just did, and it's no secret I've targeted Zero's Children.

Someone was always going to do the math eventually. It was inevitable. So I planned for it. There are going to be consequences for this operation, but they're not coming at any of you, and they're not coming at the City. I've made sure of it.

So what, you're going to take on everyone they send after you all on your own? Also we need you here. With everything Vulcanus is getting up to we know they're going to try something.

The entire City doesn't depend on me to handle Vulcanus, Seras. Some of the best operators I've ever seen are there, along with people a lot more qualified to handle the politics of this Act than me.

What happens to me isn't important. Right now I'm more of a liability than anything else. We committed an act of war, I can't just walk away from what comes after that.

What happens to you is important...to me. And I know it was an act of war, but that doesn't mean you have to take it all on yourself. They had it coming.

I don't think the Dolvanian government is going to see it that way. And even though they have it coming too, we can't just take them on and overthrow them. I'm not willing to go that far.

I appreciate how much you care. You know I do, I always have. And... you mean a lot to me too. These past two years wouldn't have been the same without you.

That doesn't change what I need to do right now. This is just what needs to happen, for the good of everyone.

Thank you...

I still think this is a stupid idea though, but I know I can't talk you out of it so promise me you'll be careful. Promise me you'll make it as hard as possible to find you. Promise me you won't do anything else stupid on top of this and if things do get bad that you'll let me know where you are so I can help.

I promise it won't be easy. And if I do need help, you'll be the one I call.

[Gently avoiding the 'don't do anything else stupid' promise]

[Because asking Jack to not do something stupid is like asking the Earth not to orbit the Sun.]

Just stay safe and come back in one piece, alright?

[If he can't promise to not be a big damned hero he can at least promise that.]

Edited 2012-08-21 02:20 (UTC)

You do the same, Seras.

I will, Jack.
