Summary
Tubalcain Alhambra sits at the head of the table, receiving reports of the teams on the ground. He tells them that they're going great. Meanwhile, the strike teams reach the top floor and breach the room. They find Alucard and tear him apart with their weapons, but he revives and slaughters them all, much to Seras' horror.

Synopsis
Anderson sits in his room watching the television. He tells the freaks to dance for his amusement. Tubalcain Alhambra is monitoring the operation to take out Alucard and Seras. He receives reports that all teams are ready to breach, and he claps his hands and tells everyone that they're doing very good, and tells them that they must work hard if they wish to see the land where there is no illness or aging.

Integra and Walter watches on from Hellsing Manor where Walter warns Integra of what Alucard is about to do. She asks if Alucard is truly willing to kill mere humans, and Walter reminds her that he isn't a normal soldier. He is a monster. At this time, the strike teams have reached the top floor and are ready to breach. Once they enter the room, they find nobody but a coffin. One of the soldiers reads off the inscription: "The Bird of Hermes is my name; eating my wings to make me tame". Alucard appears and demands that they not touch his coffin.

The soldiers respond by firing at him, shredding his body. They ask if maybe they went overboard, but remember that they have been told to kill them, and to make it look good. They then begin to search for Seras. But as they begin to search for her, Alucard begins to speak again, telling them that they were gods of war and that dogs could never kill a vampire, as that was a man's job. He begins to eviscerate them, drinking their blood and ripping them apart as they had once ripped him apart. He corners the only survivor who calls him a monster.

Alucard replies that he gets that a lot and asks what that makes the man before him; a Dog, a Man, or just another Monster. The man responds by putting a gun to his own head, pulling the trigger, killing himself. This surprises Alucard who recoils in disgust. He calls out Seras who is startled by the gore and asks why he had to kill them. Alucard said that they were humans yes, but that they had decided to force his hand. He says that this is war, and that nobody can change it. He then tells her to follow him as he leaves the room to continue the battle.
