Finally, a chance to write. Well, lets get this show on the road. By the way, this is based after the end of the anime. Since it gives no definite closure, I figured this wouldn't be too deep in plot holes.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Alucard was sitting at a table in his room, feet propped up on a chair and a wine glass full of blood in his hand. He was rather bored these days. After the Incognito fiasco, Hellsing had been put under heavy investigation. But it eventually became apparent that Incognito had caused the conflict, and Integra was cleared of all charges. They where able to clear most of everything else up, though it took many mounds of paper work and several highly paid lawyers. And of course, nearly all of the staff and soldiers had been killed during the battle at Bloody Tower. Alucard took a sip of blood and decided to listen in on what was beeing said around the mansion.
The mansion was nearly deserted, due to the lack of manpower. The Hellsing Organization was being run on a skeleton crew, and new members where becoming harder to find. Seras was still getting the hang of most of her powers now that she was a full vampire, and she was currently sleeping in her room. Walter was in the kitchen, preparing a meal for Integra. And his Master herself was in her office, reading over some files. There where some soldiers in the break room playing poker, and the two guards on the roof where having a conversation about the attractiveness of Seras Victoria. 'I believe it may rain tonight. I hope you don't slip and plummet to your deaths,' he whispered into their thoughts. Their conversation immediatly switched to sports. He then decided it was time to go pay his Master a visit.
As Integra surveyed the files in her hand, she realized she was being watched. She gazed up and found Alucard hanging from the ceiling, his eyes scanning the papers on her desk. "What are those supposed to be?" he asked, dropping down and picking up a few for closer inspection.
"Applications," Integra responded, taking them back from him and setting them on her desk.
"For what?" Alucard raised an eyebrow. "Why do we need applications for grunts? Can't we just recruit some foreigners like last time?"
"These are for officers. I already have infantry being recruited, but we need officers, and perhaps a few spare opperatives for when you and Seras are already on duty." Integra adjusted her glasses, then handed Alucard a folder. "Read this. I think it looks promising..." Alucard picked up the folder and examined the files inside it. The person detailed within was already a member of Hellsing, but he seeked a transfer from the smaller American branch. Some parts of the file peaked his interest.
"He specializes in ghoul suppression?" Alucard noticed a description of his special attributes. "Profficiancy with close quarters combat. Standard tactical knowledge. Basic medical understading." He handed the file back to his Master. "He does look like an interesting candidate. When will he be arriving?"
"In an hour. I want you and Seras to stay out of sight. So sense telling him more than he needs to know before the proper time," Integra warned.
"Of course, my Master," Alucard bowed. He then turned and phased through the wall, flashing his trademark grin as he did so. Integra sighed, then took a cigar from her desk drawer.
"Why do I get the feeling this is going to be a long day?" Integra muttered as he searched for a lighter.

Well, hopefully it wasn't to boring. Thanks for taking the time to read. I'll write a new chapter later.
