ROAR continue on Chapter Two!
DISCLAIMER: HELLSING IS NOT MINE IN ANY WAY EXCEPT KATE IS MY OC!
"IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!"
That was happening at the Naomi Residence. And Walter said it would be fine…"HELL NO HELL NO HELL NO HELL NO!!" She continued screaming and 'killing' Alucard. In other words, slapping his face rather hard and punching with her kendo sword out and slicing. Her heart was now going 'baku baku baku baku' and she had an IMMENSE blush on her face. Now Alucard's face was covered with red slap marks from her hand and sliced up.
-Earlier…-
When she turned around to 'travel' to Naomi-san's room to choose her outfit, Alucard was suddenly in front of her and had his arms around her waist. They were EXTREMELY close to each either, and luckily she had her arms in front of her, touching Alucard's chest. He could have kissed her if he wanted, but he decided that was too far for a day.
"I'LL be your guardian." He smiled devilishly. To hell with that, he was the devil. Her face was now flushed, and she was so embarrassed she completely ignored the flow of memories. She couldn't talk with all the surprise she had. Then she came back to reality and came…
"IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!"
-Present…-
"Ouch…That hurt." Alucard had a mock face of hurt. In reality, it really didn't. She turned away still with a flushed face and dashed to Naomi-san's room. His face instantly changed to a smirk. 'She's even cuter when she blushes.' He thought.
Yup. He's in "love" head over heels with the half-vampire.
A ring from Integra's phone in her office rang.
'Alucard.'
"Alucard, what are you doing?!" She yelled into the phone. He was laughing his undead ass off on the other end.
"Apparently she wants to stay until she finishes school."
"And that would be??"
"In a week." Her loyal servant replied. "She also has the prom and a Ceremony." Integra suppressed a groan.
"And??"
"She needs a guardian for both days." Alucard was restraining to smile like a fool. "I said I'll be her guardian." Integra nearly fell out of her chair and was REALLY holding back to laugh. Her servant and a new vampire.
"Tch. Fine. Does she need only one guardian or two?"
"One, my Master." He smirked. "And she's already at work." Integra was surprised at the fact.
"She works?"
"Apparently yes, my Master." He picked up the paper lying on the table in her room. "Do you want her schedule?" The kyuuketsuki was enjoying this.
"Iie. But only what jobs."
"A bakery, restaurant, and a convenience store." Integra raised an eyebrow on the other end.
"Three jobs?" She recalled to the recent job. "Keep her out of reach from Millennium. And tell her about going to South America with Seras."
"Yes, my Master." The call ended.
Integra, in London, was having a hard time. She rubbed her temples. First finding the 1,000 year old vampire…almost a thousand years. Then going to South America. Sending Alucard on a 'Search and Destroy'.
'What…Am I going to do??'
Kate looked at the clock in Naomi-san's room. 4 PM.
"HOLY CRAP!! I'M LATE!!" She hastily put in a suitable outfit for her restaurant into a small bag and flipped her hair into a high ponytail, then with two revolutions around the pony tail, she inserted a black chopstick into the 'bun' and the end of her hair hung over the left side of her bun.
-The Restaurant-
"Kate! You're late again!" Her boss exclaimed when she burst through the employee doors.
"I know! I'm sorry! I was in the hospital!"
"…I heard what happened to Naomi-san…" Kate looked up, the end of her hair swishing.
"It's ok…I'll make sure there's a proper burial in the way of her culture." As soon as she had changed, her outfit was a black skirt above her knees and a black blouse on top. She tied on her white lower apron and she dashed out to start serving.
At 8 was the surprise.
"Jake, for a party of two." The couple came up handing over an electronic device that was blinking. Kate had her two menus ready in her hand.
"Would you like the bar or a regular seat?" She asked.
"A regular seat would be fine." The man replied. Kate led the two to an unoccupied seat with only two chairs and set down the menus in front of them.
"I'll be back in a few minutes for your orders." The bell jangled from the front door. She rushed up to confront with her new customers.
"Welcome to…" But they were people she knew. It was Alucard in a suit, Integra-sama, and two others, a priest, by the look of it, and another man. Kate blinked rapidly a few times to make sure she wasn't seeing mirages. It really was Integra and Alucard. Alucard even LOOKED different… Turning her head to the right, she lifted her hand to cover her mouth as she was slightly shaking with laughter, her hair concealing her face for a few moments. Then she regained her posture, and it was obvious Integra wasn't in her best state, twitching away.
"How many?" The priest was looking at her as if she was from outer space.
"Two."
'That's odd.'
"Under what name?" Kate looked at Integra, but the other man spoke up.
"Maxwell."
'Eh? Wasn't that for the reserved room?'
"So is it the reserved room?"
"Yes." He replied. Kate picked up two menus and started walking toward the reserved room he had held in reserve for about two days. She opened the door and in went the men and woman. Alucard and the 'priest', which Kate assumed what he was, only stood in the corners of the room, Alucard close to Integra, the priest close to Maxwell, Kate vaguely thought. Only Integra and Maxwell sat at the table.
"I'll be back in a few moments for your order." Kate started a bow but stopped. "Actually, one more thing." She looked at the priest. "You were the one that tried to kill me, weren't you, twelve years ago, on THAT day, saying 'Iscariot. Thirteen Division. AMEN.'" With a bow while closing her eyes, she shut the door.
Maxwell flashed a glance at his escort after Kate had left.
"So was that your new servant, Integra?" Maxwell inquired with a curling lip.
"She is not my servant, and is free to choose whether or not she will be under me." The head master replied coolly. "Her name is Kate Naomi, free to be my 'servant' or not." She placed her hands in front of her, only showing her eyes. "And what is this 'killing?'"
Kate thought about the time when she had seen Alucard's memories earlier. It dealed with when Integra had first found him, as a corpse, until her Uncle Richard burst into the basement where her father had told her there was a secret weapon. That secret weapon was Alucard, without tasting any blood for 20 years.
Richard wanted her death painful, but as soon as Alucard had sensed blood, he immediately went to slice off a man's head in half and gulped the pouring blood into his mouth. Richard's gang sprang into action, but Alucard made a quick haste of it. Richard was the only man left, and as he shot bullets at him, Alucard was able to catch all bullets and slivered his hand. He approached Integra and knelt down before her, and he was now her servant.
It all began to make sense. That vampire on THAT day, her killing her parents. Alucard killed the accomplice, and she had run. Then that priest had come after her.
"Kate!" Her boss hacked her out of her trance. He came over. "Are you okay?"
"…Yeah, I'm fine." She shook her head, as if still in the memories. "Sorry…I was thinking about something."
"That's fine." Kate's boss had a soft spot for her, after he found out her past, and how hard her life was. Kate then left with a pitcher of water to refill, and after, went into the room to get their orders. She raised her hand and was about to knock on the door when she heard her name.
"Kate is not an ordinary girl, Maxwell. She is beyond anyone's skill. She can steal memories, manipulate them to her own, and more." Kate practically felt Integra's defensiveness and slight anger. "Answer me, Maxwell, that ghoul killing in the village was with Alexander, wasn't it?" Kate finally knocked on the door. Her intuition had been right. The voices in the room stopped, and she swung the door ajar, approaching the table.
"Would you like to start off with any drinks?"
"Red wine would be fine," Alucard said in the corner. Kate smiled inside.
"We would also like a bottle of that. That's all," Maxwell ended.
"I'll be back with your orders." She closed the door behind her and added up the total meanwhile. 50 bucks was a lot of money. Then add tax…oh giddy. Kate entered the winery and came out with 2 goblets and 2 bottles of wine. Once again, she knocked on the door to the reserved room and entered. Settling the bottles on the table, she took out a cork opener and unfastened the corks, pouring wine into the two goblets, and giving one of the wine bottles to Alucard. She slipped a piece of paper face down onto the table.
"Here is your tab." With a smile, she left and closed the door behind her. What she didn't notice was the hatred Alexander shot at her. Alucard didn't let that slip by. The men were now standing next to each other, since the long, droning conversation between their two masters had dulled the excitement of the day, at least Alucard's for sometime.
"Oh?" Alucard's eyes slid to his left, peering at his foe, a smirk curling up the corners of his mouth. He took a swig of the wine from the bottle.
(A/N Haha...I really had to put him drinking wine out of a bottle once…I wonder if I should at LEAST make him DRUNK...muahaha…once.)
Alexander Anderson didn't reply. He knew exactly what that girl was talking about. Before he had the chance to officially send her to the world of the dead, he had been interrupted in his work.
Kate was at the front desk updating the computer and all the records, and felt a tap on her shoulder. She jumped and saw it was her fill-in.
"Kate, your shift's over," The young man twinkled a smile. Kate's eyes became those upside-down U's, and sighed in relief inside.
"Hee…Thanks, Albert." She gathered her stuff and went inside the bathrooms to change.
After she was done, she checked up on the boss.
"Hiya, I'm going now." He nodded without looking at her, since it was basically impossible to look through that stack of papers. She took out her iPod, and started jamming. When she was walking toward the entrance, she became aware of the four approaching at the same time. Kate didn't do anything but walked out the door, heading toward her next destination. She sang the song softly while on the nearly deserted sidewalk. She was listening to her favorite artist, Utada Hikaru, and inside her music carrier, was her only 2 albums out so far and some released singles—along with Linkin Park—First Love, and Distance. She had some favorites from First Love. Automatic, Movin' On Without You, In My Room, and as for Distance, basically every song, but her favorite was Parody.

Kate smiled at the end of the song, since she had been softly singing with the song and did match Utada's pitch. She heard through the silence a swish of cloth and out appeared the favorite vampire of all time. Alucard. The song transferred to the alternative rock of Linkin Park, Forgotten.
The beginning chorus was promising, and the explosion combination of all the instruments suddenly was interesting. She liked the lead vocalist's tune in this song, Chester, who was just about screaming after his "singing", and the tune with Mike rapping was also captivating. Then the "world famous screaming" at a minute into the song, but it really wasn't that much of screaming.
Kate especially liked the part with the "Now you got me caught in the act/ You bring the thought back/ I'm telling you that /I see it right through you" and where Chester was actually screaming. It was the best part, she thought.
"Rather nice song, Kate." Kate herself was surprised that he knew her name. She hadn't even told Integra, much less Alucard. Then she wondered why she hadn't noticed earlier when Integra had said her name in the restaurant.
"Hm? What about it?" She wrapped up the earphones around the mp3 player, still humming to the beat still in her head. Kate was walking with a merry step, almost to the late-night convenience store. "So what are you doing here, Baka-chan?" He flinched at the informal calling and once again, she found herself face to face with him. An impulse to kill him would help now.
"My master said to keep a watch over you, until you return. And there is the case of going to South America." A confused expression spread across her face.
"South America? For what?"
"Millennium. They are so far, a group of Nazis that haven't been completely gone. From what Maxwell said, they were the primary support." She sighed.
"Anyway, don't forget I have the prom tomorrow Baka-chan from six to ten!" Her attitude was once upbeat again, skipping the rest of the way to her job with the beat of the song. The bell hanging from the door tinkled, and her companion looked up from a book.
"Hi Kate!" Her colleague observed Alucard. "And…"
"He's my guardian for now. He's Mr. Edward." Kate made that up on the spot. "Monica, that's Mr. Edward." She looked at Alucard. "Baka-chan, that's Monica." Monica was in a fit of giggles. Alucard didn't show it on the outside, but he was twitching. He was going to kill her someday. "Oh, and Monica, you can address him as 'Baka-chan'!" They both had wide grins plastered and were talking in low whispers. "We have the prom tomorrow!"
"Hee…I know. I want to see Nicole look like a retard." Monica replied. And then: "OH MY GOD, I want to see Chris!" Chris was the hottest boy in the high school, and his charm worked on basically everything. Alucard was sitting by, twitching all the way, not exactly profoundly happy that Kate found this 'Chris' hotter than him. The clock struck 11:30, and only one customer came, to buy water.
"Do you want to clean up shop?" Monica asked.
"'Kay." Kate was busy sweeping the floor while Monica stored all the cash into a storage box, eventually to be hidden behind in a locked room.
At 12, Alucard was going into active mode, while Monica and Kate were just about dead tired. Monica locked the door from the inside, and they both left, parting outside the store.
"See you!" Monica said. Kate only waved a hand. Alucard's observation was that her mood had dropped, so he took out a medicinal packet of blood.
"What the hell is that?"
"Medicinal blood." Kate sighed and walked back to her home. At home, she thought about her dress and went to Naomi-san's room while thinking of the homework she needed to do.
"Let's see…AP Cal…done. AP history…done. English…done too, no science, so everything's done!" She ended with a cheer. Looking at the clock, it was already 12:30 in the morning. Ruffling through Naomi-san's walking closet, she found a suitable but dressy dress, a strapless ruffled swishy sparkling white Christian Dior dress, barely touching the ground. It was the newest style, and Naomi-san had it modified to "skim" over the surface to match her white high heels height, and since Naomi-san and Kate were about the same height, the dress fit perfectly. It was a gift from her company. The shoes would be Naomi-san's white stylish Nicole high heels, about three and a half inches high. Kate nodded in satisfaction and decided that was enough for one day.
Rest didn't come soon enough. Alucard glided into the room she slept in, glancing at the sleeping figure. Yet with a start, the girl snapped her head at the "count".
"What the heck do you want?" Grumpy times are called not enough sleep.
"So you haven't slept yet?" The Dracula or whatever the heck he was called wasn't surprised.
"I can't, Alu-rin."
'Alu…rin?' Alucard thought while making up Plan A—kill the names. Flinging the covers aside, she stood up from her futon. "I haven't been able to since that day you and I first met. And insomnia." She drifted past him to the balcony, gently sliding the door aside. Kate didn't look at him as he came into the moonlight. "What are those wings on me?"
"It 's your vampire." He leaned against the balcony wall and looked at her. "And?"
"You're still going to be my guardian…" She thought of a name just for him. "Rin-rin?" The kyuuketsuki could hardly contain his smirk but at the same time almost frowning.
"Integra said so." Kate sighed and rubbed her eyes, then thought of the prom later today. It was past 12:30 midnight…by the way.
"Might as well get some sleep while I can…" She sauntered back into her room and settled on her bed, and the happy pair kept eye contact with each other. "What?" Alucard diverted his eyes away.
"Nothing." That fanged smile was smack on his face again. Kate felt the corners of her mouth pricking up and a blush spreading across her face.
"Are you flirting, mister Rin-rin?" The two vampires were on the verge of laughing…and if Alucard soon did that, it would be the end of the world. Figuratively. No answer followed, so the night became silent and Kate was able to get some rest. Alucard, on the other hand, had that once again devil look on him.
Kate's eyes fluttered open to the sight of sunlight streaming in.
"Boo." A voice resounded next to her left ear. She stiffly turned her head over to her left and sure enough, was Alucard lying right next to her staring at the ceiling (and probably having 'Drop Dead Sexy' written on him XDDD)…
"NANI!? HOLY MOTHER FUCKING SHIT GODDAMN WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!"
Yup...ending this chapter with some humor...I guess R&R please!
