[Her crew has surrounded the ship, undead thralls in boats and lesser vampires hovering or jumping to pursue Alucard. Some are already making for the ghost ship.
Hector's hand goes for his hammer, but he hesitates, trying to judge the right moment. The second he strikes out, there is no going back, and this close, surrounded by this many of Carmilla's loyal minions as well as the vampiress herself, he has to make it count.

Smirking, she flies in pursuit of Alucard, carrying in her clawed hands the one piece of leverage that would actually serve to keep Hector at bay.]
