I heard steps and didn't knew of what should I be afraid of. The unknown was a great thing to fear ! I stood up, dizzy and confused, covered in my own blood. I didn't saw the angel but a message was written on the wall "This is the ascension". I stood there just looking at it, trying to understand it all, trying to connect it to the war that happened ten years ago. Would it happen again ? I had to warn Integra yet I had a strange feeling that she already knew.

I thought that the angel was gone but as I saw the white figure I immediately knew I was mistaken. I grabbed a piece of the broken glass and tried to leave the room but the door closed with a big bang. I was terrified but the concept of "family" wouldn't leave my head. I craved it more than anything else and now that I have found blood of my blood I ran away, terrified because Death can touch her at any time.

I tried to open the door but it wouldn't budge. The killer angel grabbed me once again by my neck with such strength that it could simply snap my spine. My feet didn't touched the ground and my face felt like it was going to explode, oxygen was running thin. With the broken piece of glass in my hand I tried to stab him in the face but all I did was cut the hood that kept his face a secret of the shadows. But not anymore, his skin, his hair were as white as the moon, his eyes were light grey and cold. It was Devin Byrd, I knew him. He was the one who helped me the most when I came here. I was lost and alone, didn't had a single familiar to cry for help, yet that miraculous bird came.

Shock stabbed right through me, punched me in the heart and it would be the last thing I would see before I die. He did not belonged to this world, not anymore. Tears came to my eyes and I heard my heart break. As darkness came to take me away, my last thought screamed in my head. I couldn't abandon Integra again. I would come back and join Hellsing.

In a desperate act I squeezed the broken glass and pierced his eye. He let me go and I tumbled on the floor and crawled to the door that would not budge, I had to find out a way to get out. He stood still and I could see confusion in his eye, confusion mixed with pain and covered in blood. I could see him fighting against himself. He fell on his knees and stared at his own hands, terrifying and shaking. He slowly threw a dagger at my direction and forthwith covered his face as if he could torn off that mask. I came closer.

-Devin ... Please Devin ... Wh-what are y-you? -I asked afraid.

-Ki...kil... -He whispered slowly. -KILL MEEEEEEE !

Suddenly he threw him self at me and insanity took over him again. In a quick motion I grabbed the dagger he threw at me and stabbed him in his heart, if he still had one. Everything happened so quickly and everything ended so fast. I saw relieve on his face, with his hand he told me to come closer and so I did. He put his hand on my blinded eye and I closed them. I felt a burning sensation as if he was stinging me with needles in the eye itself. And when I opened them once again I could see. He was reduced to ashes. My angel and my bird flew away.

I grabbed the dagger and started walking and walking, I would not stop until I would reach to Hellsing.
