Sitting up in her room looking up at the night's sky a clear midnight blue that only occurs after a good long rain storm. Jumping out the window she sat herself outside her window on the roof. Looking out over the edge she began to wonder. Wonder how easy it would be to just stand up and take that one fatal step. Who would miss her? Not her parents they loathed her. She had never understood why it wasn't any reasoning she could figure out. She had a feeling why but every time she tried to point it out of course they always got defensive but well it was her fault but she didn't ask for it that was for sure. She wondered what it would be like to feel that feeling of dropping into the abyss. Would she regret killing herself? Or would she be fine with it? Would she be fine with the wind passing by her as her body fell rapidly towards that hard earth?
"I don't think you'll be happy with the end result my dear little sister." A familiar voice behind her whispered softly.
Turning around she saw that it was her older brother Christopher. He never really bothered her like normal big brothers are supposed to do; he also always knew what she was feeling it was like another sense with him. He was really the only one in their small little house that made her feel like she belonged here. She smiled at him a little smirk of her sorrow. He was the prize of their family; Chris was everything that she wasn't. Smart, athletic, and just pure normal, he was a handsome young man now going on to be 21. He was four years older then her. He had short-cropped dark brown hair in some lighting it looked almost jet black. His eyes were that deep hazel that would shine amber when in direct contact with the sun. She loved those eyes they always had an accepting light to them when they'd look at her.
"Haley come on its not that bad one of the doctors will find a cure for you." Chris whispered softly sympathetically, "Then you'll see mom and dad will love you as much as ever much. Then we'll be that family from before."
"Chris come of it!" Haley snapped glaring at him, "Even you can't bet that naïve."
"What? What's wrong Haley?" Chris asked dreading the answer, "Don't you have any faith Haley?"
"You know as good as I do that the doctors can't find a cure for this anymore then they can find a cure for stupidity!" Haley shouted at him she turned sharply to look back at the stars. She felt her anger slipping turning into her sorrow, "Chris I'm cursed with this till I die no matter what you say or anyone says. If mom and dad would just accept it then there wouldn't be a problem at all."
"Haley you know they can't accept this." Chris said laying a hand on her shoulder he gripped on to her holding her back from that edge, "They're just not that strong."
"Haley! Chris! Come inside and downstairs we need to talk to you!" There mother's voice shouted from down the hall.
"Alright mom coming!" Chris hollered back at her climbing back through the window.
"Always the perfect son." Haley muttered.
"Shut up you brat and get in here." Chris stated grinning at her as he slapped her playfully on the head.
Her mother avoided Haley's room as much as someone would avoid a leper's room. Whatever this was her mother obviously thought that it was contagious. Her mother was a graceful respectful lady beautiful and strong. Haley had always admired her ever since she was a child that is what a child is supposed to do. Look up to their parents even if the parent hates the child. But now, with her new condition her mother had become distant and less loving as though this was a horrid embarrassing display that Haley had conducted. She had not asked for this curse it had been given to her. Well forcefully given to her when she thought back on the memory, she was sure that the person that bit her hadn't wanted to give this to anyone. It was something in the eyes she just had a feeling.
Haley looked much like her mother Kimberly. They both had a rich deep red hair and green eyes along with a lovely slim figure. Though her mother looked a lot healthier then Haley did. Even before the incident Haley had always looked sickly and almost anorexic. She was a very sick child even before any of this happened. The kids at school had always said she was a faker, but it didn't matter she did have a couple of girls at her school that were cool and well great friends. Haley was a small almost average height for her age. She was of course slim and skinny her shoulder length red hair was curled at the bottom giving it a little lift to her pale face. The best features of her were her eyes, they were a bright green that sparkled when she laughed, or so her brother had always told her.
Sighing Chris motioned for Haley to follow him once they were both standing in the room. Rolling her eyes she followed her brother grudgingly. She loved her family she did she really did but sometimes it was hard to love them with the way they treated her. Chris and she went downstairs ending up in the upper living room. She had expected it to be just her father, mother, and her other brother to be waiting for her. But there were two other people. People she didn't recognize or know anything off.
"Take a seat Chris and you too Haley." Their father stated himself taking a seat down beside their mother.
"Here Haley sit here I can stand for this." Chris stated standing behind the chair close to Haley he had a feeling would need to be by him for strength, "Mom Dad who are these people? What's with all this cloak and dagger? How about giving us some answers to all of this would be well appreciated."
"Chris this isn't about you, you're not in trouble so don't fret about that." Their mother stated not looking up from her hands, "This is about Haley, only Haley no one else."
"When isn't it?" Haley muttered rolling her eyes.
"Yes truly when isn't it about you Haley when you were supposed to be a good girl listening to your parents!" her father snapped at her, "If you'd just stayed at home like we told you to and not gone outside you would never have been bitten by that monster!"
"Well if you had just told your children the truth about there be a wild beast out on the loose then I would've stayed home like a good little girl!" Haley countered back with, "Now did you? No you didn't you decided to try and ground your teenage daughter. Oh yeah that was a bright decision when I've been rebelling ever since I learned to talk!"
"That is well enough Kenneth fighting solves nothing." The woman that sat across the room from Haley whispered softly, "Seeing how time is valuable to us I don't believe you want to waste it."
"Fine sister you know better after all." He replied his gaze still upon Haley glaring at her fiercely.
"Aunt Integra?" Chris asked astounded by his fathers reply, "I didn't recognize you at all!"
"Yes little Chris it is I." Integra replied smiling softly at him, "It has been quite a while since we've seen each other. You and Kyle haven't come to see me since well before your sister here was born. What fun those days were."
"So you hate me as much as everyone else in this room does." Haley stated glaring at this woman she had never heard of.
"No Haley I do not pass judgment on those I do not know." Integra whispered shaking her head smoothly, "It has just been hectic where I live that we have not been able to properly invite you and your family out to see us. I'm sure you will love England as much as your mother does."
"Will love?" Haley asked her voice a little shaky as she jumped to her feet she unconsciously grabbed her older brother's hand, "What do you mean? What is she talking about mother father?"
"You are going to go and live with your aunt Integra in London England." Her mother stated still not looking up from her hands. Not taking one gaze at her own daughter, "We can't help you here, no doctor knows how to. Your aunt can help you she specializes more in this field then anyone in the country."
"You don't want me anymore?" Haley asked her voice choking up with tears she squeezed her brother's hand he squeezed back. He was letting her know that he was here for her that he wouldn't let her go, "None of you want me here anymore?" She appreciated what Chris was doing but she was beginning to panic.
"Haley once you start to transform we won't be able to contain you." Her father stated frowning at her, "There is nothing we can do, you're aunt at least can. Believe me more then anyone that she can she's far stronger and strict but a good candidate for the job to help you. Our father entrusted her with the family organization more so then I."
"But you're my family!" Haley screamed at them backing away from them all, "Chris Kyle don't you want me here?"
Her Brother Kyle wouldn't even look at her as he whispered, "You're a danger to our lives. Its best if you go with them."
"Chris what about you?" Haley asked her tears falling delicately from her green eyes she couldn't help them or stop them, "Chris?"
"Haley you know that I want you here how am I supposed to protect you when you're all the way in London?" Chris shouted wrapping his arms around her he stroked her back in comforting circles, "I won't let them take you." He whispered into her ear alone.
"Chris unfortunately this isn't for you to decide." Integra stated shaking her head as she walked over to the two of them, "Haley this is serious you are infected you will shift you will change and you will turn on your family. You don't want to wake up the next morning with you're brother's head in you're hands believe me that's not how you want to start this new life out."
"Trust it from one monster to another you're aunt is correct." The man that had remained quiet whispered she had expected his voice to be soft and pretty much quiet. But his voice was filled with a sort of condescending tone that irritated her and angered her actually.
She looked over at him glaring at him her full anger showing well in those clear green eyes. She wanted him to see her mad she wanted to know that she did not approve of his tone with her. She didn't know him and she really didn't want to have to live in the same house with him he looked pompous and arrogant. But something about him let you know that he had good reason for being that way. She didn't think anyone had a good reason for being rude but she couldn't get past this weird feeling that he knew how she felt, that she should listen to him. That didn't sound like her at all; she had to be wary of this man. This man dressed from head to foot in black with red sunglasses. He was tall and broad shouldered he practically towered over Haley. He had long black hair that he had tied back probably at Integra's request she thought. Looking at her aunt she could tell that if she did go they were going to be fighting quite often.
"Doesn't matter how mad you are at me you know that I'm right and you're wrong so get over it kid." He stated smirking at her.
"That is enough Alucard the girl has been through enough." Integra snapped at him.
"That's enough! I'm not girl I'm not kid I'm Haley use my name it was given to me by them!" Haley screamed pointing indignantly at her parents. Taking a calming breath she closed her eyes she whispered softly, "I'll leave mom and dad, I don't want to continue to stay here when it's obvious that I'm not wanted."
"But Haley…" Chris began holding onto her hand, "I don't want you to leave."
"Don't worry Chris I'll be back plus maybe you can come visit me, wouldn't that be fun?" Haley stated smiling at him trying to make this situation a good one as much as she loathed it.
"Yeah I guess as long as you're happy Haley." Chris whispered letting her hand slip from his. He felt almost as though he was letting go of her forever, "I'll come and see you during the summer and you can give me a grand tour."
"Yeah I will Chris it'll be great." Haley stated as she went up to her room, "You'll see I'll come back and be a success while the rest of you rot here in this little house."
As she climbed the stairs she didn't let them see that her eyes were a little shiny with the beginnings of tears. As much as she didn't like living here in Alberta she still didn't want to leave all of her friends. She like her friends she liked that she knew where she was. Where this and that was, she didn't have to frantically look at street signs to know where she was. Maybe she just wasn't able to have that life where you had friends since you were a kid. Her parents were all about moving whenever the going got tough. Sure she and her brothers had seen amazing places but they really had no childhood friends. That kind of friendship was lost to them they would never be able to know that kind except for that bond that the three of them had forged through the moving.
As she entered her room she saw that her parents had even brought the luggage up for her earlier to pack. She hadn't noticed it earlier when Chris and I had come back in from the outside. She picked up the larger of the suitcases thinking that she would pack everything she owned. Then realizing that she didn't want to bring anything that her parents had bought her, she didn't want to for some strange reason. Probably cause of the betrayal they had committed. She couldn't bring herself to forgive them after this was all done. She searched through her closet thinking what was a gift and what her parents had bought for her. Thank god she'd begun to grow up and start to actually buy her own stuff.
When she'd finally gone through everything she found that all her belongings that were hers filled the huge suitcase and the little carry on. She grabbed her back pack of books and her laptop. She went for the door as she went to grab the handle she fell to the ground as her insides began to feel as though they were on fire. She grabbed her stomach screaming as she let go of the bags she was holding. Gasping for breath she tried to get to her feet only to fall and crash to the floor hitting her nightstand her lamp came falling down near her head. In the dark she curled up holding her stomach thinking that she'd been forgotten she began to listening to the weird sounds in her head. A growling sound she found that she was intrigued by it, more then that though she felt safe with that growling sound. That sound comforted her fears and worries, she could just feel them all disappearing as she lay there on the ground still in pain but slightly comforted. A little stronger to leave her family she thought.
The door burst open; Haley looked weakly up and saw her older brother standing in the frame. The light around him hid his face. She couldn't judge his expression but she had a feeling that he was worried and stricken like he always was with her. Kneeling down beside her he took her hand in his. She faintly looked at her hand in his and saw that he really was bigger then her. Her small pale hand stood out in contrast to his tanned huge hand.
"Haley can you hear me?" Chris asked softly his fear lining his voice.
That wasn't right. Chris was always able to keep his emotions out of his voice what was going on? She shouldn't have been able to tell that. Chris had seen her way worse and been able to keep a hold on his emotions. Just like that in a flash the pain was gone the growling the senses were all gone. Her eyes cleared up and she was able to grab a hold of Chris's hand rightfully with a strong grip. Her body protested to her moving about as she stood up leaning a little on Chris and standing herself.
"Chris something's happening to me." Haley whispered softly scared and trembling. She didn't want to ever feel that pain again, "It felt as though I was being torn a part Chris."
"Haley you don't have to go to London I can convince mom and dad to let you stay here just give me some time wait here." Chris stated helping Haley to sit down. She could still here his panic and fear, "Stay here don't move and don't go anywhere."
"No we can't Chris. I have to go with Aunt Integra and her friend." Haley replied softly shaking her head, "I'm changing you know it I know it there is nothing we can do. I have to go with them to keep my family safe. Well really just to keep you safe no offense to the others but I really couldn't care if I woke with there head in my hands the next day."
"You don't mean that Haley you're just kidding." Chris stated laughing her off.
"No Chris I'm not kidding about any of it." Haley whispered her eyes going to the floor as she continued, "After what they've done to me I don't care for them, and I'm old enough to know when I have to go. It'll be fine Chris I promise I'll phone you every night promise!"
"Fine Haley but I'm still coming this summer." Chris stated looking seriously at her, "I will get their and by gosh darn it I'm going to make sure you will still be able to get to you're dream."
"Oh Chris I don't think I could have left without hearing you say those words. Or even being supportive of letting me go I know this can't be easy." Haley stated crying just slightly as she jumped into his arms hugging him tightly, "I'm lucky to have you as family."
"Of course you are silly." Chris state laughing as he ruffled her hair he picked up the larger suitcase and whispering, "Just promise that you'll keep you're guard up while you're around Alucard."
"Who's that?" Haley asked as she stiffly moved to pick up her other bags.
"That would be the man downstairs with Integra." Chris said his gaze grave and a little terrifying to her, "You have to promise me that Haley just please promise me."
"Of course Chris I promise calm down now." Haley stated quickly, "Why wouldn't I? I'm not crazy here he gives me the creeps after all."
"Thank god Haley its just he's different like you Haley just in a different sort of different look its hard to explain just ask Integra." Chris said smiling again as though his serious face had never existed.
After that she followed her brother downstairs where she good bye but the only one who cried was the last you'd ever expect to cry. Her brother Chris of course, her parents and other brother Kyle were just happy that they would be able to sleep with out having to worry about her killing them. It was kind of hard to let go of her brother Chris but she was strong enough and was able to get in the car and drive away from the one place she had begun to feel at home.
Sitting back in her seat beside her aunt Integra that's when she finally realized how out of place she was compared to the others in the car. Even the driver was dressed well then her. Haley was a book worm and hard core working girl so she was dressed in her jeans and a baby tee that had her number and school name from her soccer team. With her short hair tied back and old style chucks on her feet the same bright blue of her shirt. The man named Alucard was wearing a pure black suit, at least it suited him somehow she thought. Her aunt was also dressed in a suit the color of olive green with a blue tie with a pin of a Lancaster cross. She looked at the cross and was horribly reminded of her own cross. Her hand went to her neck and she realized that her cross wasn't there cause of her new curse. She cast her eyes downwards as the memory haunted her and would continue to. She now kept the necklace in her backpack now.
"What's wrong Haley?" Integra asked laying a hand on her back.
"My cross, seeing you're cross just reminded me of my own cross and what happened." Haley whispered softly crossing her hands over her lap as she raised her head and looked at her aunt, "I just miss the comfort of having it around my neck."
"Let me guess someone has a cross shaped burn on there chest now." Alucard's mocking voice sounded from the front, "Oh that is too rich."
"Excuse me, too rich? Are you freaking kidding me?" Haley stated glaring at the back of his head wishing that her glare could kill him, "How about I put one down your pants and see what happens to something valuable down there? But then again it might be too small might not even hit it!"
"Oh we have a little sass on our hands." Alucard chuckled as he turned his head slightly to look at her, "I can see that I'm going to have fun with you around the mansion."
"Don't count on it buddy if I were you I'd sleep with one eye open." Haley replied grinning a little herself at all the horrible things she could do to him. The thought was pleasing even if she probably wouldn't accomplish any of them.
"Haley I wouldn't be that worried about you. It should be you that should be worried meu Dragă." Alucard stated laughing as he turned back to face the front.
"What's that mean?" Haley asked confused by what he'd called her, "What does meu Dragă mean?"
"Look it up." Alucard whispered as he gazed out the window, "You have a laptop and the internet meu Dragă."
"Stop calling me that." Haley snapped angrily at him for pointing out the obvious to her.
"Why meu Dragă?" Alucard asked as he continued to laugh. He was getting great entertainment from her and it only served to anger her more.
"Is he always like this?" Haley asked looking to her aunt now.
"I'm afraid he is and you'll have to get used to him cause he will be assisting you in you're training. Along with an old friend of his." Integra stated calming even though Haley was sure that she saw a bit of amusement in her blue eyes.
"If you say who I think I'm going back to sleep." Alucard stated his voice cold and lethal it scared Haley she was surprised that her aunt was just calmly taking it, "I swear to it Integra plus I'm not helping her I hate her kind."
"Yeah well I hate you too buddy!" Haley interjected crossing her arms as she irritably looked out the window sick of him already and she'd only been in the car for 15 minutes tops.
"Hate's such a strong word meu Dragă I don't believe you hate me." Alucard said mocking her knowingly.
"Let's push him out the door and let him walk the rest of the way." Haley muttered glancing at her aunt.
"Haley it wouldn't work afraid he'd still survives the push unfortunately." Integra replied rolling her eyes, "Alucard you have no choice this is you're order you will assist in the training and Măreţ will be helping you."
"This totally sucks means I have to actually listen to him!" Haley stated aghast that her aunt was letting this jerk help her no not that actually let the jerk near her.
"I have to agree with meu Dragă on this." Alucard stated his voice bland and void of any emotion.
Integra laughed a little and the two glared at her and instantly she went quiet. She found it amusing that the two were strangely alike even though this was their first meeting. This was certainly going to be interesting she wouldn't be surprised by the end of Haley's training if the two of them didn't kill each other.
Haley woke up to find herself on an airplane with all the shades drawn on all the windows. It was a little surprising but she paid no attention to it. She looked around and saw her aunt at the front of the plane on the telephone with papers in front of her. Haley wondered who she might be talking to but she had a feeling deep in her gut that she didn't want to know. Curiously she investigated the plane her aunt paid her no mind. She saw that at the end of the plane there was a door. Well curiosity got the cat Haley went to go and look. She turned the knob and walking into the room was shocked that it was darker in here then in the other room. She flicked the light switch on and was speechless when she saw a coffin. A pure black coffin just there in the middle of the room tied down so as not to move around as the plane moved. Turning the light off she closed the door and went to sit down. She came and sat by her aunt seeing that she was off the phone.
Her aunt could tell immediately something was wrong and asked, "Haley your ashen what's wrong? Are you sick?"
"Why is there a coffin on the plane with us?" Haley asked and was a little proud that her voice wasn't shaky but the rest of her was.
"Oh that well that's just Alucard Haley." Integra chuckled a little waving the problem away, "He sleeps in a coffin is all don't worry you'll get desensitized by it."
"Are you freaking kidding me?" Haley stated shocked by her aunt's reply, "What the hell does that mean? That's just Alucard; you don't expect me to believe that he sleeps in a coffin like some sort of vampire."
"Haley that's what he is. I thought Chris had told you." Integra stated as she riffled through her paperwork, "Alucard is the pride of our organization he's the most powerful vampire walking on this earth so far to our knowledge. He has never met someone that has been a worthy adversary. Though the major was a close call but not good enough. Not for Alucard that is."
"I've walked into the twilight zone it is official." Haley stated sighing as she tried to regain control of her still shaky body.
"Haley this is what we are, Hellsing organization sworn to protect the queen and country from I guess you could say any supernatural creature." Integra stated calmly looking over at her she gave her some water to drink, "Alucard normally has one objective search and destroy. But he knows a little bit of you're kind so he's going to be helping you learn control of these abilities. Any questions?"
"A couple." Haley whispered after taking a long swig of the water, "Like who and what is this Măreţ for one? And what kind of name is that?"
"Măreţ translated would be like the Canadian name you know as Grant. It's Romanian Haley he was born and raised." Integra slowly and patiently answered, "He is just like you Haley but he's still new to his abilities so that's why Alucard will be I guess not only teaching but also supervising what Măreţ teaches you."
"Alright that answers a couple other questions as well." Haley stated she turned to her aunt and smiling a little asked, "Why does Alucard keep calling me Meu Dragă? That and what does it mean?"
"Alucard well when ever we have someone new join us he never begins by calling them by their name first, less they've earned that by his views." Integra explained smiling at her niece, "Meu Dragă means my dear in Romanian Haley."
"Oh my god he's calling me my dear!" Haley shouted freaking out like a teenager does. She jumped to her feet she started rambling on and on way to fast for Integra to even understand.
"Haley sit quietly repeat what you said to me and slowly." Integra stated grabbing her hand and forcing her to sit, "Now go."
"What kind of freak calls a teenager that? The only kind of person that does that is like you're father! If he even tries being fatherly my foot is going somewhere where I promise it won't be comfortable!" Haley said throwing her hands up and around startling her aunt time and time again, "Like honestly come on he is so dead! If he's a vampire I should just be able to stab him with a stake in the heart! Then we'll see who meu Dragă is then!"
Integra exploded with laughter she was able to calm down and manage to reply, "Haley he's only saying it because he doesn't have anything else to call you. Don't worry it won't stick he'll change it trust me."
"What if he doesn't?" Haley protested whiningly.
"Haley I've known the man since I was a teenager myself he'll find something else trust me." Integra said still smiling at her, "Now go back to sleep you'll need you're rest for what's coming when you get to London."
"Alright Aunt Integra." Haley muttered blushing a little from her embarrassing predictable teenager outburst, "Night Aunt Integra."
"Good night Haley." Integra said softly as she watched Haley climb back onto the couch and fall asleep. She shook her head sighed she rolled her eyes, she hadn't believed her sister in law when she'd said a teenager girl was going to be difficult, "I may have my work cut out for me with this one."
The next time Haley awoke it startled her that Alucard was sitting in the chair right across from the couch she was on. He was looking down at her sleeping with a creepy grin on his face. The first thought she had was to lash out so she swung her leg over and kicked him in the shin. He yelped and Haley jumped to her feet a little unsteady she fell on her butt.
"What are you doing? I didn't hurt you!" Alucard snapped as he looked over at Haley getting to her rubbing her butt.
"Ouch that hurt…" Haley muttered she looked at Alucard and narrowing her eyes dangerously shouted at him, "What kind of freak watches someone sleeping? Oh my god you jerk you totally deserved that hope it hurt!"
"Not that much how about your little trip to the carpet there?" Alucard replied smirking at her.
"Not one bit you jerk!" Haley stated furiously trying to keep her composure. Whatever was left of it she thought sarcastically?
"Oh but you looked so cute with you're mouth hanging open drooling while you're leg hanged off the side of couch." Alucard stated sarcastically laughing at her expression.
"You are such an ass!" she screamed as she grabbed her carry on bag and went to the bathroom.
Locking the door she went to brushing her teeth and cleaning her face. She was so angry that she was actually doing that whole girl thing where she mocked him and mocked herself actually. Washing the crud of her face she sighed and swore to herself that she wasn't going to let him get to her. All she had to do was play it cool. Her play it cools yeah okay so not going to happen she thought. She changed into some clean clothes pulling yet again another pair of jeans on she searched through her bag and groaning couldn't believe that she had shoved a tank top into her bag.
"No way I so can not wear this!" Haley stated exasperated by her stupidity.
She looked at herself in the mirror with just her bra on she saw her scar right on her chest in the shape of her cross. She felt the tears brim as she had a slight flashback of her cross bursting into flames and burning her skin her shirt catching fire. It was a horrid day and she didn't want to ever remember it. Shaking her head she sighed and rolling her eyes figured who cares I'm really the only one bothered by it no one else is. Besides that as if someone would ask about it. That'd be rude; the English aren't rude like that.
Grabbing the baby blue tank top she pulled it over thankful that she had the smarts to at least wear a white bra the day before. Black would've shown right through the shirt. Sighing she went to styling her hair straightening it and using slight hair gel to get the curls where she wanted them. Extracting her small make up kit she went to applying her eye liner and carefully she applied her eye shadow and mascara. Her mother had hated her wearing this much makes up but who cares now she's a country away from her now. Smiling just before she left the bathroom she washed her hands and put a light brown cream color gloss on her lips.
As she exited she smiled a little devil like. She was greeted by Alucard and Integra waiting for. A little surprised Integra's eyes widened at her niece's appearance. She knew instantly with that look that her aunt was all about keeping her pale skin covered. She laughed a little as Alucard at about the same expression.
"What's wrong?" Haley asked innocently laughing at them.
"Haley you can't dress like that all the time here where you're going to be. The manor won't be able to take it especially all the men." Integra stated trying to sound reasonable but she sounded too much like an overprotective parent, "The organization has a reputation to uphold."
"With all due respect aunt Integra I've moved away from the one place where I was happy. Left my family there, my friends, and my home." Haley stated she closed her eyes as she thought that she didn't even say goodbye to her friends, "I'm not changing anymore for this place. I've changed enough now lets get to this manor or mansion whatever you call it."
Integra and Alucard both had no way to argue that. They'd already changed so much in her life the way she dressed shouldn't be one of them, the others would just have to get over their sensibilities and live with it. Haley was the first to climb into the car this time she climbed into the front so that she wouldn't have to look at Alucard. Even though last time it was just the back of his head she didn't want to. He could just suck it up and sit in the back with Integra. The others got in the car with no complaint she was a little happy that they let her be for the moment.
They pulled out of the airport and Haley was amazed at how beautiful it looked with the lights and the night sky above them. She marveled at the buildings and statues and was amazed by the mere sight of parliament and the queen's castle place. She was just amazed at all; maybe this wouldn't be so bad after all. She acted like a kid in a candy store as she looked about. Her eyes wide and her mouth open in awe as she looked back and forth at everything. She once caught a glance of Integra and Alucard in the back when she looked back quickly to see a statue on the other side of the street. She was a little surprised that in that quick glance they were both smiling as they were watching her…but what amazed her was that they were holding hands. That was odd she would have to ask about that. Maybe it was a custom here in London. She didn't know she'd make a mental note to ask someone.
When they finally began to slow down and came up to what Haley believed to the manor that she'd be staying at. Though she wouldn't have called it a manor as they pulled into the insanely long driveway, she thought of the place as a fortress then a manor. The driver stopped right at the door. Getting out she was a little taken aback when people came running out from the door to the trunk of the car. They grabbed the suitcases and bags that were Haley's. She felt weird letting people take her stuff inside. Even though she guessed it was their job.
An old man slowly came down the stairs he first went to Integra bowing he stated, "Welcome back Sir Integra how was the trip?"
"Amusing in some areas and confusing in others Walter thank you for asking." Integra replied nodding her head to him showing some respect for him.
"I assume that you Master Alucard had a good trip as well?" Walter asked his gaze settling on the vampire.
"Could've been better with some fighting." Alucard stated shrugging his shoulders, "How was everything here? Did Seras perform her duties accordingly?"
"How about you ask me yourself Alucard instead of asking Walter?" a woman with bright orange hair dressed in black dress pants and a white silk sleeveless shirt.
"Seras did you or did you not?" Alucard questioned looking over at her his voice cold and calculated.
Whatever this Seras girl was supposed to do was Haley guessed originally Alucard's duties. So he took it very serious this was an extremely different Alucard from the one Haley had gotten to know. How strange she thought.
"Yes Alucard I did I'm not an idiot." Seras replied grinning at him, "So did you bring her back or what?"
"Yes we did should be interesting to have Măreţ here living with us for who knows long." Alucard said in a kind of growling voice. He was not pleased with this Măreţ coming Haley couldn't pass judgment on the man till she met him, "I'm going to end up killing him I know it."
"He's only here till she learns how to control her shifting Alucard suck it up!" Seras stated pushing at him a little in a playful fashion.
"Hey people! Over here can you stop talking about me as though I'm not here?" Haley asked kind of annoyed that they were being so rude to her.
"Yes so what is this girl even like? All we know about her is that she's a Canadian girl from Alberta." Walter stated rolling his eyes, "Not appealing seeing how that's…how would they put it…ahhh yes hick fill."
"Are you freaking kidding me?" Haley snapped glaring at them, "You are all ignoring me. Wow real mature there adults!"
"She's a teenager yes Walter but not that horrible. She's quite an appealing girl." Integra stated, "I find that she's mature for her age, though in certain times you can tell that she's still growing up."
"Are you jesting Integra? I'm going to end up killing her too." Alucard scoffed laughing, "Appealing girl? Yeah sure appealing to a chimp."
"Oh you ass you are so dead!" Haley stated a little hurt and annoyed that they were all still ignoring her. She was standing right here and they weren't even talking to her. Or having the decency to introduce themselves, "Yeah the English have better manners then we do. Surrrrrrre! I'm supposed to be the chimp, fine I'll show you how to be a chimp you jerkface."
They were on a gravel driveway she picked up one of the rocks. Hey she played football she was a quarter back she thought lets practice some aiming. Taking four rocks a bigger one especially for Alucard. She couldn't help herself this wasn't the first incident that he was being a jerk or being an ass as she'd come to call him. She threw the first one at Integra hitting her squarely in the middle of the back of her head. Throwing the next one at Walter hitting him right between the eyebrows she marveled at that hit a bit proud. Throwing the next at Seras a little higher then she'd meant to she wanted to try again but once was good enough. Then taking the bigger and last rock she threw it at Alucard only for him to turn around and catch it.
"Hey that's so not fair!" Haley protested stomping her foot.
"Wow real mature Haley." Alucard stated grinning at her.
"Oh shut up you ass! This coming from of all people you sure whatever." Haley rolled her eyes crossing her arms in front of her.
"That wasn't nice or polite Haley apologize." Alucard stated glaring down at her.
"Don't glare at me you jerkface! You were all talking about me as though I didn't exist, excuse me this little hick would call that rude." She stated pursing her lips raising one eye brow as she said, "I thought the English had better manners then that."
"So we forgot that you were here get over it." Alucard stated walking up towards her he dropped the rock to the ground.
She didn't know why he was walking towards her and she'd prefer it if he would leave her because really she didn't want him any closer to her at all. She felt that pain again in her stomach area. Gasping she fell to the ground once again curling up as she screamed against the pain in her gut. This felt way worse then last time when she was back at her home with her family. What was happening to her?
"What's happening to her?" Seras asked looking on at the scene with remorse.
"Her beast is trying to get out. It feels threatened and she needs the comfort of pack to settle her beast." A smooth cold voice said.
Haley was able to open her eyes slightly to see a man as pale as she was coming towards her. He knelt down beside her and soothingly brought her head to lie in his lap. It was comforting she could smell something about him that soothed her. She felt that growling sound inside her calm itself with him nearby. Slowly Haley felt the pain disappear as she uncurled herself she settled into his lap comfortably. She now was able to look at him with her eyes fully open. She saw that he had gray eyes that showed to her warmth. He knew what she was going through, he was on her side. That sheer thought made her eyes water up with relief that someone else knew how this all felt. He took one of his hands and wiped at her eyes smiling a little for her.
"Don't worry Haley it'll be alright from now on." He whispered to her, "Rest your body has already been through two almost shifts you need the rest. We'll talk more when you've fully rested."
She felt herself slipping she was so tired now he was right but she had to know his name before she fell asleep, "Who are you?" she was able to whisper.
"I am your mentor and your teacher Măreţ." He said petting her hair down he continued to give her that shy smile, "I will be here to help you from now on."
She was only able to nod her head and then she simply fell asleep in his lap. All her pain and fears were taken from her that easily. How he did that intrigued her. Maybe this would be better then she thought.
