[The screen flickers on and before it stands a pale creature with black hair and a long white coat. His eyes are red as rubies, lips bloodless pale in a faint smile

He tips his head to the side, hands clasped behind his back and when he speaks the voice is childish, affecting a lilt at the end of his words]

Canada. Aha.

[His tongue is pointed as it darts out to wet his lips]

I see through your trap. Nazis. You’ve mastered killing off your own kind but fail so badly at humor.

[Those red eyes take on an inner glow, burning like hellfire. Shadows thicken and draw forward, velvety fingers licking at his boots, at the shadowed hem of his coat]

I’ll have my Coffin and my human, now. [He looks left. Then right.

Then up.

Then down, back on the NV.

His tone is solemn, scolding, though the smile at the corners of his mouth deepens] No? [His bloodless lips pull back in a ghoulish smile, revealing dainty fangs that grow longer, sharper, two sets of upper canines, two sets of lower canines]

Then I shall huff and puff and tear this whole island down.

Two. [He supposes that would make sense if there is a command center and an experimental facility]

Yes. Show me.

I'll find you.

[ Not that he suspects it'll be difficult. ]

I'm waiting.

[And he will be. On the baseball diamond. Poking at Darkness with his own shadows and eyes.]

[ And it won't be long before he arrives -- a tall, dark-skinned creature with pointed ears and claws, clad all in red.

He passes neither through doors nor any other entrance; he is simply there, another shadow simply moving into the half-light. Looking at the other, he feels no fear, only regards him with a sense of curiosity. ]

It would seem that I have found you.

As you said. Not difficult. [Alucard isn't threatening, this is no vampire, he can feel that. Something else. Not demonic. Though he gets the feeling it has power.

Hands behind his back, he looks over the figure before him.]

What are you?

[ A simple question with a rather complicated answer. Having made the effort to appear, he still does not care to share.

Some secrets, after all, are better left as they are. ]

An agent of the Creator.

[ And save for the "fledgling" and his departed shadow, there are no others like him.

He indicates a nearby roof. ]

Shall we?

[ It's foolish, after all, to simply stand here in the open. ]

[He raises an eyebrow at that description but says nothing more. There is no point, so many things are strange here already.]

Yes.

[And then Alucard is moving, a blur of shadow and pieces of bats and eyes, he's on the roof, whole and still dressed in unblemished white.]

[ There's little to it. He simply moves, and he's there, a blur of color and motion before his feet come to rest on the roof.

He glances at his companion, his eyes strangely bright. ]

Our first stop is in Sector Two. [ A beat. ] Follow me.

[ And with that, he's off, traversing the city's towers with preternatural speed. His companion, he expects, is more than capable of keeping pace. ]

Lead on.

[Color the vampire even more impressed. He follows with little strain, simply leaping from the building and alighting to the next, bats or shadows might be easier, but he doesn't like easy.]

The two companies control all of the sectors?

[ He likes to run. Some days, it feels as though he could do so for an eternity and still never tire.

Here in the Siren's Port, where the expanse of space is comparatively limited and his actions restricted by the light of day, it helps to stretch his muscles. ]

In certain aspects. Afterglow, Inc. has a hand in business, the entertainment industry, and a system of legalized slavery. SERO, on the other hand, prefers research and science. Some say they even experiment on those who fall into their clutches.

[Alucard likes to chase. To fight. To stretch his limits with a worthy opponent. Though for now, he listens, arching a brow] Slavery or experimentation. Sometimes they go hand in hand.

[He taps a finger to his mouth] Why are they put up with if each company is so deviant?

Fear. Complacency.

For most, this is the only world they've even known; and for that, they live to survive.

[ He stops finally, his perch one of the tallest points throughout expanse of Sector Two. The seat of SERO's power lies just ahead.

There's plenty here to see. ]

We're here.

Tch.

One should never settle. They should strive.

[He looks over the sector, finding it curious, far more advanced than London when he left it, the shapes of the automobiles, the styles of dress. So very different.]

Some do.

[ And they fail. Completely and absolutely, in more ways than one.

He comments no further, however, allowing his companion to observe all there is to see before he mounts on the edge of the rooftop. ]

Our next stop is Sector One.

[ He'll wait for confirmation from Alucard before setting off once again. ]

After you. [Alucard partially melts to shadows, preparing to follow in his bat form]

The press of life is vibrant. I'm excited to know more.

[ He notes the change with a flicker of interest, there and gone in a moment. He has no small measure of curiosity for beings such as these -- those who, like him, also breach the eternal and do not smell of humanity.

Perhaps it's that he himself is a creature of legends, the ever-elusive monster wearing the shape of its Creator.

Either way, it matters not. Their tour is not yet done. ]

You will see.

[ He turns -- ]

This way.

[ -- and with that, he is in motion, the effortlessness of thought itself translating into action. It doesn't take long for them to arrive in the neighboring district. ]

[He follows bodily this time, leaping from building to building. Growing more and more curious about this creature.

There are things here- he can feel them in the press of humanity, they are not human. All around.

Like this one, but not as powerful, or different in their power. Some he cannot even begin to rate.

He wants to test them. All of them.

But the desire for battle is lost out in the spread of lights before them.]

And this? Whose territory is this?

[ The creatures, yes. Those things which dwell in the night only to disappear at the advent of day. Like him, they are restricted to the night and its shadows. Though they are far from kin, he feels a strange sort of sympathy for them.

Trapped forever in a cycle of desolation. ]

Afterglow Incorporated.

Everything you see all belongs to them.
