I know I've kept you guys waiting for too long, but I'm back with a new chapter. For future reference, the story will contain a mixture of the original Hellsing and Hellsing ova, with my own plot line. I just wanted to warn you now, just in case you get confused later on. Disclaimer: I don't own Hellsing. All rights belong to Kohta Hirano. Ocs and other plot line belong to me.
Big Boss
It's been a while since I last heard anything from Hellsing. Only two weeks or so. I highly doubt Integra hired any new recruits since I've been gone.
My hearing has returned to normal. No more constant ringing in my eardrums. I could fully understand someone without sign language or trying to read lips.
My brothers have been keeping me company the whole two weeks. Neither had let me out of their sight. It's endearing, but gets tiresome after awhile.
My eldest brother, the real Kosuke, was overly concerned with my well being. He's always been like that ever since we we're kids and reunited so many years ago. Kai, my youngest brother, is very clingy when it comes to me, not that I don't mind.
Ever since he was a baby, mother would put me in charge of him when she had to leave for months to take care of war affairs. Every now and then, Kai slips up and calls me "mother." I've gotten use to it, but I am motherly when it comes to him.
It was around afternoon when masters called me to speak with them. Walking through the pristine hallways, I made sure to keep my guard up. Sometimes the other warriors here have a habit of sneaking up on me to fight for my position or just looking for a fight in general.
Especially the number two ranked warrior in our organization. Her name is Senta and ever since we've recruited her from Germany, she's been out for my blood. You see…all of the warriors employed here are all human to an extent.
Mostly humans with rare abilities and such work here. So, Senta thinks that a lowly vampire shouldn't be given the rank. And yet all of the battles we've had, she has never won. That and someone always cut in before I take her head.
Reaching the office, I rasped on the door twice to signal my arrival.
"Come in."
I walked in to find the two sitting behind a large desk, big enough to accommodate the two. Everything in was white and gold, except the carpet we walked on every day. The carpet was a deep indigo blue, royal color. The only color besides the gold in the porcelain palace.
"With all this white, it would possibly make Alucard go blind by it," I joked. The two tried to stifle their laughter, but failed miserably.
"So…what did you call me for?" I asked after they were calm enough to be serious. Timothy and John both shared a nervous glance at each other before deciding to answer.
"I know this is short notice, but…we called…Integra for a meeting today," spoke Timothy.
"Here?"
They both nodded their heads, ginger hair swaying with the motion.
"And judging by the time…she will be bringing her two vampires as well," I stated. Again, they nodded their heads.
"And they're staying for dinner?"
Nodded again. I sighed. Those two really had a habit of late notices.
"But don't worry, dinner has already been taken care of," reassured Timothy.
"All we want you to do is to direct the meeting since…you know," remarked John. He gave me a serious look meaning that he wouldn't take no for an answer.
"Alright…what else?" I sighed.
"Change into something else hen your normal garb. We can't have you looking like that," they pointed out in harmony. I looked down at my usual baggy shirt and pants.
"Fine," I sighed again.
I walked out of the office when I heard them yell out, "And no chest bindings!"
'Great…now I'll have the great vampire staring at my physic during the meeting and dinner.'
Closing my bedroom door, I sifted through my large vanity dresser to pull out some clothing. I pulled out a pair of black waist high bell bottoms and a white long sleeved blouse. Ruffles adorned the top where the buttons were placed and the ends of the sleeves.
Taking a quick shower, I made sure to wear a bra at my masters' request. The blouse strained against my large bosom, but otherwise stayed intact. The waist high bell bottoms accented my curves in all the right places and flared nicely at the thighs.
I put on a pair of black high heeled shoes, even though the pants pretty much covered them. As I was brushing my hair, my brothers barged into the room.
"Ah…there you guys are. It saved me the trouble of finding you two," I said turning around from the dresser mirror.
"What do you need Onee-chan?" asked Kai as he looked at my sudden change of attire curiously.
"Integra and her vampires will be here for a meeting shortly. I want you, Kai and Kosuke, to stay away from the office until I come and get you," I explained.
They both nodded their heads in understanding. Kosuke walked closer, placing a hand on my head.
"If you need anything, don't hesitate to call us." I muttered thanks, turning back to the mirror.
'This is going to be a hell of a night.'
"Welcome to the Claymore manor! Sirs Claymore has been waiting for your arrival."
Integra nodded towards the maid, making her way inside along with Walter, Seras, and Alucard. They all wore their usual attire, except Alucard didn't wear his red fedora and tinted glasses.
"Please follow me."
As they were walking, Seras couldn't help but be amazed by the place. The walls were bright white with gold embroidery and the carpet was indigo blue. She wasn't use to bright colors, so she had to squint until her eyes could adjust.
"Sir Integra, you know the Claymores will more than likely make you apologize for your display," commented Walter. Integra ignored his comment and kept her eyes focused in front of her. Finally coming across it, the maid held the door open for all of them, closing it behind Alucard.
The office was somewhat like Integra's office, except there was a couch and the color scheme was different. At the front of the desk stood the Claymore twins. John on the left and Timothy on the right.
"Welcome Integra. We hope you found the place alright," spoke the two.
"Please take a seat." They both gestured to a chair in front of them. Walter stood behind her while Alucard and Seras took a seat on the couch near the small desk.
"Now that we're all settled, shall we begin?"
I waited outside the doors, patiently waiting for the signal to come in. I could hear them arguing over what happened at the Hellsing organization weeks ago.
"If you expect me to apologize to that lousy agent of yours-,"
"We don't expect you to apologize, but you will listen to what we have to say," interrupted John. I heard John and Timothy call out my name, signaling for me to come in. Opening the doors, I briskly walked past everyone to sit behind the office desk.
"She will tell you everything and you will listen to her decree."
"What do you mean she?" inquired Integra.
"Why is it so hard to believe Integra? That the agent you had for a week was female," I spoke coldly.
"That's Sir Integra to you," she replied bitterly.
"Not anymore. Do you know why I was late to every reporting, hmm?" She said nothing, I continued on.
"The reason why is because I report to a higher authority than you: her majesty herself."
"You lie," Integra spat out.
"Why should I lie? Her majesty was greatly disappointed at your lack of control. She gave me her decree following the orders of the late Arthur Hellsing," I commented, keeping my voice bitter cold.
"What did the queen order?" she asked, but more like demanded.
"Under her decree: You, Sir Integra, are unable able to make precise decisions pertaining to the Hellsing organization. Elizabeth placed me as temporary head of the organization until I see fit that you are able to run it without guidance. Your father ordered me to do so, many years ago.
"That's preposterous! The queen would never order something as drastic as that or my father!" Integra yelled, jumping out of her seat in rage.
"You dare question her majesty's orders. Kosuke has Known the queen for many years before you were even thought of," stated Timothy enraged by Integra. That's a first. He always the level headed one.
"And Kosuke has known you father and grandfather for years as well. After all…she use to be your nanny," explained John. Integra was about to disagree, but Walter stopped her.
"My lady, what they state is true. When I told you that your father requested their service, it was to hire someone to take care and protect you from any danger. She was the perfect candidate," remarked Walter.
"I use to have red hair back then…The reason why you don't remember is because…before your father passed, he requested for me to erase all memory of me from you. To keep an eye on you from a distance. Only when you show signs of weakness that endangers the organization, to reveal myself to you and to take over when necessary," I explained, but my voice sounded distant as I thought back to that depressing day.
Integra calmed down enough to sink back into the chair. She heaved a heavy sigh. I did the same, moving a bang from my left eye to expose a red orb forgetting who was in the room.
"So, what are you? Seeing that you have a red eye, I can assume that you are a vampire."
"You are correct." She was bound to find out sooner or later.
"Walter…and Seras also knew about my gender as well."
"May I ask what my duty is if you're in charge?" questioned Integra.
"You will have input in decisions, but I have control of what will be put into action. Look…I'm not doing this out of spite, I'm doing this because Arthur asked me to," I admitted.
"I understand. I just don't know how the Knights of the Round Table will react to this," she stated pinching the bridge of her nose.
"Oh don't worry about that. They know who I am, just not what I am," I replied grinning sadistically.
"Now we can continue with questions momentarily. I believe dinner is ready. I've also prepared things for Alucard and Seras. Now please follow me to the dining area." I got up and walked out of the room, the others following suit.
The whole time I felt Alucard's red eyes on my form. I didn't like that, not one bit.
"Please make yourselves comfortable. I will be back shortly."
I let them into the room before heading down the hall to collect my brothers.
"So, Sirs Claymore, where did you come across Kosuke," questioned Integra. She and the others sat on the right side of the large table while John and Timothy took a place at both ends of the table.
"She saved us from a demonic beast when we ventured into a forbidden territory in Japan," stated John.
"When we first saw her, she had an appearance of a six year old girl and she had choppy pink hair…but she couldn't see at the time," described Timothy.
"A blind vampire, that's impossible," she remarked.
"Well, when she use to take care of you, she was still blind except she had a build of a teenager and red hair. She is one of the rare ones. She told us that her clan had been massacred and her human foster parents had died centuries ago."
"A vampire living among humans," commented Alucard showing off his sadistic smirk.
"Her clan was known for taking in humans who were affected by the warring states at the time, so it wasn't uncommon… but we rather for her to tell the rest."
I was able to find my brothers in the music room quickly and phased into the dining room. Snapping my fingers, servants began serving food and drinks. I had servants bring Alucard a bottle of blood and a wine glass. For Seras, I would have to make hers myself.
"Integra, I would like you to meet my brothers. This is my eldest brother, Kosuke,"
He bowed at her.
"And this is the youngest of us three, Kai." He smiled and waved before we took our seats on the left side of the table.
"Wait, so…both of you are named Kosuke?" asked a confused Seras.
"No I'm the real Kosuke. She only uses that during certain situations. My sister's real name is Tsuhgi," explained Kosuke.
"Oh."
"Where is your sire?" we all tilted our heads in confusion at Integra.
"Sire? We have no sire," answered Kai.
"We were born the same way you were: a mother and father," I countered.
"You could say we are royals by blood. Mother was the main ruler of our clan with father by her side," replied Kosuke.
"It's rare, but there were some females capable of carrying offspring," I commented.
"So does that mean you as well, Tsuhgi?" inquired Integra.
'Ok moving on…'
I saw that my brothers weren't eating any of the human food that was prepared. I guess they weren't in the mood for it tonight.
"I'll be back." I quickly got up to take their plates, trying to avoid Integra's burning stare.
"I'll take that as a yes," mumbled Integra before taking a bite of her chicken.
I came back with two blood sundaes for my brothers and a regular sundae for Seras. She took a hesitant spoonful at first, fearing that she wouldn't be able to stomach it. Surprisingly, she was able to eat it without complications.
"You're corrupting the Police girl."
I turned my head to gaze at Alucard's menacing form.
"She needs to drink blood like a normal vampire," he remarked, swirling glass full of blood in his hand, not taking his red eyes off of me.
"Well your methods aren't working. With my approach, I got her to at least have two spoonfuls of it. So if I were you, I would stuff it," I commented, letting venom seep out at every word. He didn't reply back, but continued to smirk.
I walked back to my seat fuming all the way. I began digging into my food when I heard him speak again.
"Says the vampire that eats human food," Alucard taunted.
I gave him an inhuman growl sounding like an agitated tigress. The sound caused Integra and Seras to jump slightly. Walter flinched, not liking how this was going.
'Arthur, please give me enough strength to get me through this.'
Thankfully the rest of the night went smoothly. My masters gave Integra and her posse a tour of the place. Kosuke and Kai ventured off somewhere leaving me alone to fend off Alucard. He kept lagging behind to get closer to me.
I would either speed up or slow down when he invaded my space. I tried so hard not to rip his smirk off his face.
Thanking us for our hospitality, Integra was about to leave until I stopped her.
"Integra, I will be back in two days. From there, we can discuss our plans." She nodded and got into the car. I gave Seras and Walter a hug as they got into the car with her. I was about to go back inside when Alucard blocked my way.
He grabbed my hand and gave it a lingering kiss.
"Till next time, my lady." He vanished in a mass of shadows.
'Great I attracted unwanted attention from him, of all vampires.'
Sorry for the late update. I keep having problems with fanfiction. Every time I published a chapter for my other story, it won't show up in the archives as another story update. Anyway please review the story. See you next time.
