Peace Village. Alucard absolutely hated this place. It went directly against his nature of freedom and chaos. It was too peaceful, following the law and having little to no fighting. It was simply impossible for him to enjoy such a place. Alas, he must suffer through this terrible village for a short time longer, as he had a mission here. He was to place a small snake, hidden deep inside of his trench-coat. Of course, this was simply to send a message to his father, so it had to be de-fanged. This father was a captain of the Rune Knights, which seems to be planting an annoying number of their people here, so many in fact, that Basilisk Fang has had to get rid of a number of them. This was hopefully going to be the last time that happened, but Alucard doubted that it would be. This was simply one of the many endless cycles in life, Rune Knights place a captain, Basilisk Fang scares them off, rinse and repeat. Right now Alucard was just scouting out the area, memorizing entrances, exits, weak points. From what he had seen so far, the best place to enter would be the second story, on the back balcony. All three bedrooms were on the second floor, including the little baby's, directly across from the parents. The other was simply a guest room, and according to what he had seen so far, no one was staying in there. So long as he went in at night, he should be able to get ther snake in there and get back out, no problem. So, he continued circling the building, keeping an eye out for any unexpected occurences, until nightfall, at which time he struck.
As night fell, Alucard was leaning against a building across the street from the captains home, waiting for them to lock up for the night. The captain was currently out, attempting to make good on his little vow to stop the dark guilds or whatever, so there shouldn't be any real threats in the house right now, although it would still be fairly bad if ALucard was to be caught by the wife or anyo f the neighbors. This meant that he would still have to sneak around as though there was an S-Rank mage around every corner, as if he was caught, he would no doubt have to deal with one from his own guild. So, he looked both ways before crossing the street, making sure no one saw him moving into the back-yard of his intended target. Then he proceeded with his plan, climbing the balcony until at the door. He then prepared to pick the lock, before realizing that the door was carelessly left unlocked. If this guy wanted to keep his family safe, he would need to show them how to lock a damn door when he was gone, seriously. Entering the second floor, Alucard quickly and quietly made his way to the first door he found, and looked through the lock. He saw a large bed, so it definitely wasn't the baby room, and there was a woman laying in the bed, so it was the master bedroom. Next door then. This one had another bed in it, unkempt, apparently recently used. So there was a guest in the guest bedroom, and they weren't in there now. Realizing that he would need to hurry now that there was someone awake and wandering the house, Alucard silently ran over to the final room. Slowly opening the door, he saw a crip at the far end of the room, a small mobile with intricate decorations spinning over it. He quickly stalked over to the crib, shutting the door behind him, and began his work. First, he bit into his thumb, causing it to bleed, then drew his guilds symbol on the side of the crib in his blood. Then, carefully, he wove the fangless snake through the decorations on the mobile, knowing that it would eventually fall onto the child, causing it to awaken and cry, alerting the rest of the house to its presence. When the father got home, he would know what it meant due to the snake and the symbol on the crib. It was rather nicely done if he said so himself. His work finished, Alucard creeped out of the window of the little baby's room, jumping down and creeping back across the street to wait for the screams to start.
Within minutes, Alucard could hear the baby crying, then the womans screams, along with a mans screams. His personal theory was that she had been cheating, but who knows? All that mattered, was that the message would be received by the Rune Knight captain who was foolish enough to openly declare war on the dark guilds. Now all that was left was to leave this disgustingly peaceful village with a little tidbit of chaos.
