Your skills with a gun were a major plus in your relationship with Alucard. He enjoyed being able to take you with him without having to worry about you all the time. That doesn’t mean he completely ignored you though.
You two were on an important mission; your target was a high-level vampire that had managed to build up a pretty large ghoul army. As soon as you two stepped foot on the property, ghouls were popping up like cockroaches. Everywhere you looked there were tons of them clambering toward you, but this was nothing you couldn’t handle.
The two of you split up, Alucard going to the left and you going to the right. With your trusty gun, you mowed them down one by one, their heads exploding with each shot.
From the corner of your eye, you could see a ghoul trying to sneak up on you. You whipped around, raising your gun to fire, but before you could pull the trigger the ghoul’s head exploded. Following the direction of the shot, you found Alucard standing there with his gun.
“I saw him coming you know,” You yelled to him over the sound of your gunshots.
“I figured, but I just wanted to make sure my dear,” He yelled back.
Since the ghouls all seemed to be surrounding the house that stood on the property, the two of you assumed that the vampire was probably hiding in there. Focusing your shots, you two pushed your way inside.
Your hunch was correct. In the room at the top of the stairs and farthest to the right, you found him hiding in the closet with a gun in his hand. When he saw you two, he blindly fired shot after shot at you, which Alucard shielded you from before killing him.
With him gone, it was easier to wipe out the remaining ghouls. Once they were all gone, the two of you started heading back.
“Wait, turn around,” Alucard commanded.
Rolling your eyes, you lifted up your arms and started spinning around, allowing him to check for any bite marks.
“Come on, do you have to do this every time?” You groaned as he looked you up and down.
“Of course, no matter how good you are, you’re still human.”
“But you know I’m better than your average human,” You protested.
“I know, and I have a lot of respect for you, but that doesn’t mean you’re invincible,” He replied, finished with his inspection.
“Alright. Can I drive back?”
“Hell no.”
