Hello Fred

It was no surprise that the rain was falling outside and the dark night was only made gloomier by the overcast. Another lovely British summer night, not the moon nor the stars dared shine through the heavy dark clouds setting their tears free on the earth. The Hellsing headquarters were nothing more then an ancient building surrounded by a grey and dark blue backdrop with the emerald grass trying to make its claim on the world and add color to the gloom. Warm yellow light made its way free of the windows that lined the great walls of the Hellsing manor.

A faint cry echoed down one of the large halls, the red carpet lining the seemingly endless stretch of finely furnished corridor. The faint cry slowly grew silent as the storm clouds let out a fierce roar outside. Like an African lion it let out its call making the earth shake as flashes of light spilt the darkness in half like a double edged sword. Hiding away in one of the room two women ran about franticly with excitement both of them clad in white nurses uniforms. A rather skinny brunet nurse rushed the door swinging it open with the force of a strong gale and panted in excitement, "Ha, I think we can take visitors now. Anyone want to meet the new Hellsing member?" She let her lips twist into an overly happy and energetic smile.

Alucard stood next to the wall with his hat tipped low over his eyes as the new butler William sat on the ground looking up to the nurse with sparkling grey eyes. His short brown hair slicked back and his young tan face stuck between a worried and happy expression. Once the words left the nurses lips Seras seemed the first to react jumping at the door like a dog who desperately needed to be let outside. "I want to hold the baby first. Oh please can I, can I?" The nurse seemed intimidated by her sharp toothed smile, like a predator staring her down with such glee in her bright blue eyes.

William looked up and asked folding his hands and resting them on his knees. "So what's our new Hellsing member like?"

The nurse backed away from Seras still guarding the entrance into the room and smiled down at William. "She's a bright eyed little angel. The cutest little thing I have ever seen looks like her mother already."

Seras let her eyes grow even larger as she clapped her hands together and almost dribbled, "A girl, good to hear we have another girl around this compound. What's her name, does she have one yet…is it long and completely complicated?"

"Winifred Intergal Wilhelmina Hellsing, not too complicated."

Seras whispered in reply, "Hmm…Fred." With that she caught the nurse off guard and pushed her way into the room making the young brunet startle and jump back. She slowed her excited running skip to a calm walk as she moved closer to the bed where Integra was holding the little bundle of blankets in her arms. She didn't want to make it cry or frighten it…or make Integra feel uncomfortable so she did best not to hover over them or crowd them. Instead she took a seat that was resting beside the bed and looked down at her master's tiered master. A friendly smile crossed her face as she looked down at the fragile little infant in Integra's arms; the baby looked up at her with bright blue eyes that matched her mothers, her head covered in dark hair.

Seras smiled at the baby waving her hand lightly as she spoke softly, "Welcome to the world Fred."
