My Life as an Otherkin Ch: 41

Chapter 40

The stage is cleared up and the next act takes place, something out of the Prince of Persia game.  I notice Nick appear as Dastan when part of the music starts, the one where the Prince is sailing to the Island of Time in order to prevent the sands to be created.  The scene starts where Nick swings his hardened-plastic blades at the sand creatures assaulting his 'ship', only to go to the part where he faces against that pirate lady in black, Shaudee I think her name is.

Wow I am such a nerd. I think as I watch Shaudee jump back from his blades, blocking with her own swords as they dance.  Silver lets out a whistle as she watches the dance, both warriors flashing their sticks out as the scene flashes past the beach and first fighting Kaileena.  The audience watches with captive eyes as 'Dastan' swiftly takes out the sand warriors left and right, even throwing one of the more plastic blades at one of them.  When Nick stumbles off to the side upon finding the Mask of the Wraith, I see a very familiar Sand Wraith pop into the area.

Kind of ironic how the wraith is playing as a sand wraith… but she plays the part very well. I muse while watching her fight smoothly against the new sand creatures, moving with grace and agility instead of full blown swings.  She has been trained in using a dagger, but she somehow manages to pull it off with the blades.  Much to the surprise of all, even Silver; she does the hand-stand whirlwind kick-slice.  

As soon as she's finished with the sand warriors, she turns around and Nick 'stabs' her in the stomach, felling the double-Dastan.  When the fight against Kaileena comes back, they fight and the Prince kicks his foe to her knees; crossing the blades at her neck.  He takes a few huffs and puffs as if he's about to slit her throat before removing the blades.  Guitar music sounds out as all of the fallen actors stand up and everyone else appears from behind the scene.  I find myself grinning at the beat of the electric guitar music, knowing full well what music this is; I Stand Alone; the theme song of the Warrior within, courtesy of Godsmack.

Soon they all exit the stage and everyone else meets up with his or her own groups.  We're all patting Nick and Angel on the back in congratulations and getting Angel to smile more.  It's then that I realize that this must be the first time I've really seen her smile.  With no one else signed up for any more cosplays, we just spend time wandering around at other stands and areas.  I contemplate about buying a few cloths, but decide against it as there can be other things to buy.  However I do not wish to leave without some souvenir and settle upon a six-piece throwing knife set.  Much to my surprise they're actually weighted and slightly sharp; but some work on a grinder will make them deadly.  Five of them go onto my shoulder and the last one goes on my boot.

"No, no, no, no way man.  Itachi can totally beat this Wesker guy with just one look." I hear Nick's voice from around another stand where Patrick is, my brother holding a copy of Resident Evil 6.  

"Nuh uh, Wesker won't look into his eyes because he can move as fast as a car and has his bad ass sunglasses to protect him." Patrick defends as he shoves in the fact that this Wesker guy is some sort of super human.  The argument then goes back and forth.  Itachi was an Anbu captain at age 12 or something, Wesker was a STARS captain and a billionaire who worked on some super virus, Itachi slaughtered his clan... I just shake my head as it seems the argument is a tie.  That's when I see this tall, and I mean TALL, guy walk near the two bickering males.  

"I know one guy who can kick both their asses while still not even breaking a sweat."



"Oh yeah, who?" Both boys state with some friendly anger before craning their necks to look up at the tall man in the red hat.  He smiles, showing plastic (but still very realistic looking) fangs while he looks through yellow tinted glasses.

"Alucard of course.  Hellsing," he'd state with another fanged smile, both of my friends looking at one another before launching into another argument over who would win.  Unfortunately it would seem that Alucard being immortal and how he would be "only able to die when he wants to" triumphs over all else.  Then when the topic of firearms comes up from Patrick, this tall vampire man pulls out two fake but large looking hand guns; guns that look like they're about the size of sawed off shotguns.  The guy would go off to tell my brother and my friend about Hellsing, specifically Alucard.  He'd state how this vampire guy has immortality and invulnerability, advanced regeneration, superhuman senses, speed, strength and a whole long list of other crazy abilities with the one big thing being;

"And he cannot be killed as long as he wills it."  The guy finishes up with a grin on his face.  Both of my arguing friends blink for a few times and put on their 'thinking faces' as they'd try to come up with SOME way to get rid of him.  Even if it were some sort of tag team fight with Wesker, Alex Mercer, Itachi and Naruto all against this vampire guy.

"Well all it takes is a stake to the…"  "Nope."  I blink in surprise and look up at the man dressed in the red hat.  "What do you mean 'nope'?"

"Technically, he can be killed by a stake to the heart, but he can just 'swap' one of the souls he's devoured when he'd die.  The souls would be scapegoats, sacrificial tokens to be like a life counter in a video game.  If he loses all his souls its game over," Alucard would correct.  Silver comes over, drawn over to us for some reason or another.

"I'm pretty sure the Reaper would be able to kill him." She'd comment as she'd look up at the vampire man with her silver colored eyes.  Alucard opens his mouth to speak when Silver cuts him off.  "You can't kill Death; he's everywhere and nowhere, like a shadow in the night and he always collects his quota."

Alucard actually thinks for a moment, tapping his chin in thought before he'd give my sister a fanged grin.  "You know, I think you actually might be the winner in this little 'fight'."  Nick and Patrick would reluctantly nod in acceptance at the facts presented, but that still doesn't stop the others from arguing over who the second best is.
