First arc : Reincartation : A feeling of déja vu. (Complete so far)
Second arc : Reincarnation : Saving master Integra
Hi lads, hope you like the new plotline.
The sun was rising at a snail pace above the manor. It has been five of four days since Alucard told Walter about the guitar incident, and Walter is known to be very reliable for gossips.
Integra was having her breakfast at the manor terrace.
Walter came to her table as she sipped another gulp of coffee. "Here's the morning mail Sir Integra." he said. "Thank you Walter. You may be dismissed now." she replied, taking a look at the letters, one wore the Royal seal of the queen.
"I hope she understood our situation..." she thought sighing.
But another letter caught her attention. It was obviously a love letter judging by the pink tint of the soft paper and the rose perfume coming from it. The usual stoic heir of Hellsing allowed herself a furtive smile when she placed the two letters in her suit's pocket.
Walter left with the service tray just after whispering at her something. "Be wary of Alucard, I saw him lurking around with Seras."
"Alucard? Lurking around during daytime? I supposed she somehow made him forget why he hates the sun... Gha... At least I am glad to see that he's back to normal."
She thought pushing out of her mind impropriate thoughts.
About twelve minutes later in her office.
"... I am glad at the prospect that you will support my initiative. Therefore I will announce the restructuration plan at the reception."
She thought as she wrote down the end of her response to the Queen.
Alucard phased in the room with a soft grin on his face, wearing his new glasses and his now too usual white shirt + black trousers + red tie combo.
Integra was pouring hot wax at the joint of the letter. "He's definitly faking this smile... Could it be that he..." She thought, tossing a furtive look at him.
He smiled at her as he sat on the armchair that faced her desk and stretched his limbs to set himself comfortable.
"You look pleased today, as well as the previous days, since you mated with Seras." she said as she impressed the Hellsing metal stamp on it with a tip of jealousy in her voice.
"And what's up with your new clothes... I don't get it, three days ago you were depressed to a point I would have never suspected and now you are happy like if... like if you..."
He laughed out loud an unpleasant sneer. "It's not your nature to have such thought master..."
Integra's face took a peachy tint a few seconds. "Come on, I just thought that, you and Seras, you... You finally did the thing and all the rest you know..." she finished searching her words.
The vampire smiled at her, one of those yournotmistaken smirks on his face. "Anyway tell me if I am right, I heard from the soldiers that most of us are going to a party very soon. What's the matter?"
Integra focused her attention back to her stamped letter. And left it on the corner of her desk, where Walter would come lift it soon or later.
"And what does it have to do with you? You hate parties; you literally burnt the place the last time. Plus Iscariot and a lot of human trash as you call them will be there." She threw to him with condescension.
"Let me guess... Will your..." He chuckled in the middle of his sentence and continued "...anonymous lover be there?"
Integra froze. How came that he knew it, she had tried to not think about this letter since this very morning as Walter warned her.
She tried to keep it cool. And teased him "Sounds like you're jealous about it. And when will you ever stop reading my mind..." she finished with an annoyed tone.
He leaned with his elbows on the edge of her desk; sustaining his head with his hands; his face started to bear a melted expression of boredom and pondering.
"No. I am just wondering how a cross dresser like you managed to get the attention of some guy." He teased as took back his previous posture on the chair.
To be honest, Integra teethes were grinding at this very moment, a hand already clutched at the nearby silver ashtray. Which was oddly empty since Seras accident.
"Hey, I didn't' red in your mind yet..." He came closer to her, and whispered. "I just smelled it. You know the... Love Perfume on it, amongst other things."
Accentuating the "Love Perfume" part with the intonation an ad speaker would have whenever he spoke the name of the fabulous product. (AN: Ok I stole this one. It was such a nice piece. Wasn't it? Anonymous Psychofan :3)
Seras was waiting for him just outside the office all the time.
She startled when she saw the door open itself, then Alucard's back slowly exiting the room, backwards. "So, did you found out what's going on?" she asked.
"DON'T YOU EVER COME HERE AGAIN AND STICK YOUR DIRTY NOSE MY STUFF YOU FILTHY $#!& !" The squirming voice of a shouting Integra yelled.
Alucard closed the door and faced Seras, she was like "Wtf?" when she saw smoking bruises slowly healing on his face.
"Well, I just did her one or two remarks about..."
"Enough! It's ok I get it." Seras sighed.
They started to walk side by side in the manor."So, did you found any hint about what's the reception for?" she asked as Alucard had just offered his arm, wanting to go somewhere else.
Alucard perverted grin faded. "Not a single... Except that Integra will meet her secret lover there."
He started to grin again as his mind came up with a crazy thought.
Seras sighed and stroke him in the ribs. "No you're not going to mind probe every soldier. "
"I want to know if it may be somebody from here." he snarled back.
"Don't you think there are more important things to find out?! I feel like Walter and Integra are hiding something bigger from us!" she asked point blank with a thoughtful stare at him.
"I don't know about you but... All I want now is just to enjoy the last decades of this Hellsing like I told you earlier... There's nothing we can do right now." he softly sighed.
Seras started to think over what would happen when Integra will give along Hellsing command. "Would they lock us in the basement? Or even worse, get rid of us?" she thought. Nevertheless having a doubt about how they could kill Alucard.
Alucard froze dead near a bench and proposed a little rest as they walked by the garden. The sun was washing all over them, blending on their shapes, warming them up.
She had so many things to learn about him, thus they were always discussing about something somewhere in the manor. Every little stone had its history with Alucard and Integra.
As she grew in his company in this very place, every object had a recollection to bring up in the matter. And Seras enjoyed learning more about them and their strange relationship.
As far as she knows it has been for long a father/daughter relationship. But since she came to Hellsing it has become quite formless. But he clung to his master maybe as much she clung to him.
Now sat on the bench, removing his new favorite glasses to gaze at the clouds, he said. "You feel it Police Girl? That's why I hate the sun usually. It makes me warms me even if I have no reason to feel this way."
"I understand you. If it means as warm as you were this night..." she chuckled mischievously biting her lip.
"You didn't smell it, didn't you?" he just said with a critical expression on his face.
"Smelled what? What's wrong?" she asked, hesitant, for the reason that of what he always used to kiss her every time she did that.
"This subtle scent in her breath... The reek of a breeding cancer." he coldly added.
Seras swallowed as her face saddened. "Are you sure? Does she knows about it?" she muttered as she started to shed tears.
Her mate took her hand and started to squeeze her against him. "But we can't let her die..." Seras mumbled "As far as I know, she'll rather do anything from now to have an heir to succeed her instead of resigning to our condition." he whispered.
Seras stopped to sob and moved a little aside of his embrace. "What do you plan to do so?"
She leaned her head on his shoulder. "Wait and see first, she won't die before long, the scent was quite weak. She will be visiting the doctor very soon. Her behavior will let us know soon enough." he calmly said as he kissed her.
