3Dracula and the holy grail war
After master and servant settled into their hotel room they waited for night to fall, to pass the time Shirou asked Lancer what exactly he was capable of seeing as he couldn't do so aboard the plane to avoid jetlag.
"So What exactly are you capable of?" the redheaded master asked his fedora, trench coat and armour wearing servant.
The answer came with what started as an ominous chuckle but transitioned into a maniacal cackle, after which Vlad answered the question. "Oh I can do lots of things Master, I'd like to think that the only person capable of truly killing me is good ol' Michael."
A pause entered the conversation before Shirou inhaled and exhaled. "So you're telling me that you believe yourself so strong nothing could harm you short of a messenger of the Christian deity?"
A mocking snort came from the vampire. "nah, this one has a last name." Vlad told Shirou before chuckling once more, as if Shirou was missing some sort of big joke.
"But to answer your question completely I'd need another servant to test my capabilities on, after all, what better way of me showing you my power than me absolutely wrecking my opponent's shit until they beg for mercy!" the vampire proclaimed loudly.
"Very well, I guess we're going out on patrol for other servants then." The Emiya stated, more to himself than his servant, while standing up from his chair.
Illyasviel von Einzbern was expecting the War to be a cakewalk. After all, she had the mighty Heracles as a Berserker class servant. Practically a guarantee that she would win, and then she was shot at. Now normally one would expect and archer class servant to wield a bow, not a gun. Maybe an Archer that was also eligible as an Assassin class Servant could be found with a gun, but the modern day couldn't make new ascended legends otherwise someone would have summoned one already.
And then the Servant appeared in front of her Berserker, wielding two guns. And a Sword. While proclaiming himself to be Servant Lancer.
That wasn't even the worst part, the worst part was that Lancer wasn't the that shot her. This meant Lancer's Master was nearby, meaning she couldn't support Berserker fully. Now normally this wouldn't be a problem, but apparently Lancer could hold his own against Berserker.
"Aah!" she screamed as a bullet whizzed by her and imbedded itself in a tree and exploded, sending tree shrapnel everywhere.
Then there was the, currently, more pressing problem. Lancers master, who somehow got a grenade launcher (at least she assumed so as nobody would be so wasteful with their gems) and a handgun into Japan of all places! Now she read up a bit on fire-arms seeing as her predecessor and dear friend Irisviel got slaughtered by a man wielding them. Kiritsugu Emiya, the Magus Killer, was to put it simply, capable of killing the most powerful mages if he wished to. If this man was even a fraction of the menace that the current Emiya patriarch was then she truly was screwed. The only thing that gave her anxiety some rest was that this man, whoever he may be, didn't use any of the documented tactics the Magus killer had used in the previous war.
Illya plucked a hair from her head and made one of her mini-homunculi, intending it to be a distraction so she could get to safety, sadly this never happened as her Berserker was thrown through the trees and into her homunculus bird, squashing it.
A gunshot came from Lancer shooting straight through Berserkers head, meaning that those guns where A-class noble phantasms. She was scared. Thankfully that gun couldn't harm her Berserker.
She heard an Animalistic roar from the Lancer servant, something barely audible as human speech. "Come at me Alcaides, you can do better than that! Get up and face me coward!" It was that moment that truly cemented just how utterly this basterdisation of the Lancer class outclassed even her mighty Heracles.
"Berserker! By my Command Seal, beat back Lancer and his Master-" and then she was cut of by a bullet, a different one than the ones she was previously shot with she barely realized, hitting her in her thigh. The Command Seal stopped glowing. "Berserker! Get me out of here!" she managed to get out before the adrenaline lost effect.
She saw Lancer smirking, as she heard the Master ask him something about a Michael and a last name? ''Mc Doesn't exist' what kind of name was that?' those where her last thoughts before she lost consciousness.
Master and Servant walked back to their hotel, the Master not carrying any of the weapons he previously wielded, they came across a villa and then the Master had an idea.
"Hey Lancer, want to commit arson?" Obviously the Servants reaction was a big grin and a maniacal chuckle
Omake: Quotes by Vlad's friends.
"all that the light touches, is our right to flash-freeze, all that the light doesn't touch too.
Everything is our right to flash-freeze really, though the world would be very boring if we did that.

"Fuck lions, I used to hunt those bastards. Tigers is where the real shit is at! That or lizards with energy beam breath attacks, but I've always felt a weird kinship with those.

A/N: hey, so this took me a bit, but it's out. Also the Omake is cannon.
Answering reviews:
To the Guest who first commented: Suffer in my Cringe then
To KingBanana: I get that Nasuverse genderbents have at least some reason behind them, and the reason why I would genderbent Jeanne D'Arc is because it'd fit better with the way I got Dracula/Alucard from Hellsing Ultimate Abridged in the Nasuverse and will also bring a long and at least unique story to the table.
As for meeting Godlike entities still being a thing, the thing is, Shirou didn't read anything about vampire Vlad outside of Bram Stokers Dracula, which in itself is already odd. And generally a Mage has access to the real history of certain historical figures where the Magic or Magecraft involved was real, that's what unnerved him there.
And lastly as for Kiritsugu training Shirou as a proper Mage, that is a nope, wrong assumption. The things taught by Kiritsugu where only useful for passing tests in a normal school and during missions and assassinations. Think From Fake Dreams Shirou, but less interested in saving everyone and more interested in achieving world peace through human methods.
