Alexandria had fallen asleep in the office, doing paperwork. It was just so damn boring. No wonder her mother had never liked doing it. She always teased her a bit about it, too. At the behest of Walter, a maid, Diane, had come in to give Young Alexandria her dinner. She hadn't eaten in days; they had all noticed this... She needed her strength. "Miss Hellsing?" She knocked on the door quietly. No answer. She bit her lip and slipped in, smiling seeing her sleeping. She closed the door behind her and stepped towards the desk.
Alexandria had heard something and jumped up alarmed, her eyes wide and fearful. Diane screamed a bit and dropped everything she was holding. Alexandria blinked and stood, letting out a sharp breath. "Oh... I'm sorry, Diane." She rubbed her head softly, the left side of her face red and puffy. She walked towards Diane and bent down, trying to help her pick up the broken glass and porcelain. "I'm sorry, Diane."
"It's alright, miss... Ouch!" She pulled her hand up. The jagged porcelain had cut into her finger. Alexandria looked up into her eyes and pulled her hand closer. "Are you okay?"
"It's nothing, miss. I'll take care of it once I'm finished cleaning this u--" Alexandria's grip tightened. "Miss?" It tightened once more. "Please, miss... That hur--" Alexandria looked up, an evil grin spread across her face. The stream of blood had dripped down her arm. The warmth like a serpent, cutting through her sanity like the Devil's own voice, destroying the fragile fabric of her humanity. Her eyes glowed a bright red and she gripped Diane's hand tighter and tighter until she screamed.
"Ah.. The Music I want to hear." Her voice was like a demonizing whisper.
Diane's eyes widened. "Please, Alexandria, don't hurt me!"
Alexandria's body shivered and she let go of her. "Run..." She could still smell the blood. God, it was so alluring. So beautiful. So... She clenched her fists and looked up as Diane turned to run from the room to find Walter. She didn't get that far. Alexandria charged towards her, slamming her against the door. She grinned, locking it. "Too slow."
Alexandria laughed. This didn't happen many times, but... it wasn't very pretty when it DID happen. She pinned Diane against the wall, laughing at her screaming for Walter, for anyone to save her from this demonic child. "No one can hear you, darling..." Her eyes burned brightly. She could smell every ounce of blood in this woman's body, every pint that she wished to drink. The small fangs pierced her lip and she licked Diane's throat...
"SOMEONE! PLEASE?!"
Her hand wrapped around Diane's lips. "Sh... I want my food to be silent."
The door beside Dianna seemed to shake for a moment before it suddenly fell to the ground in pieces, looking as if it was cut by a razor-sharp blade. A dark figure stood at the door his arms outstretched as if he was holding something unseen to Diane's eyes. "Now...Ms. Alexandria, please do be a good girl and put Ms. Diane down." he said with a bow.
She grinned widely as she turned back towards Walter, her dark hair falling into her face covering only one her eyes. The other -- so deadly, so dangerous... Her innocence was twisted, like the raging fingers that wrapped around Diane's neck. She laughed to him and looked back to Diane. "Aw, why? I haven't scarred anyone for life in a long time..." She tilted her head, observing her prey.
"Now Ms. Alexandria...We've been through this before. What would your mother say?" Walter asked as he stepped forward. "What your feeling now is not who you are, it's just an urge that you must overcome Lady Hellsing." he continued as stopped before her. "Now please...Let Ms. Dianna down."
"You know, Walter. You were never much fun... Just an old fart my mother liked to keep around the house for company." She sighed and tightened her fists around Diane's throat. "Why are you negotiating for her life when you and I both know she's a thief anyway..." She laughed and gripped Diane, throwing her passed Walter. She hit the wall hard and fell the floor, unmoving. She laughed. "You're little threads don't scare me anymore, Walter. Maybe when I was younger... Not now." The room around them grew cold. She blinked. "So, how are you going to do it this time? Tie me up? Try to sedate me? Or do you actually want to fight me?" She gave a fanged grin.
With a slight shift of his hands, the garret-wire in Walter's hands formed a wire prison around Alexandria and he smiled at her. "Don't count me out yet Lady Hellsing. Your mother had more faith in me then that and I intend to insure that faith by making sure you are raised as your mother wanted you to be." he replied with a small smile, his monicule flashing in the light.
Alexandria laughed. "I don't need to touch you to hurt you... You should know that, Walter." Her eyes grew wide and a shadow burst towards him, not as big as... let's say Alucard's... or Seras's but... big enough to scare the shit out of someone... and if she really wanted to, she could do some damage but there was this weakness within her, not allowing her to do fatal damage to really anyone including herself.
Walter frowned at the shadows as he moved his fingers around slightly to hit the shadows around him. "Hmm I see you've been watching Ms. Seras..." he said with a slight sigh as his fingers twitched and tore another shadow in half.
"I haven't been watching, I've been studying her." She grinned widely as the shadows started to come from every corner, faster and faster. Those that he destroyed would only reform and attack once again. She growled, starting to get VERY agitated. She took a step forward. "You fight it forever, Walter. Some day, I will win... and who knows? Maybe that's today.." She grinned.
Walter smiled at her as a wire cage formed around him too, "But that day...Is not today." he said with a smile as wires tore through the shadows when suddenly a violent cough escaped Walter's lips. Coughing violently, he fell to his knees as his wires fell harmlessly around himself and Alexandria. "No-no..." he gasped as he coughed again, this time blood came out and hit the floor before him.
Alexandria grinned and stepped towards him, looking down on him wantonly. She shivered, her body literally needing the blood spilt before her. She closed her eyes and tackled him, pinning him to the floor, keeping his hands held up high with her fingernails digging into his wrists. "...No-no what... Walter?" She whispered in his ear.
Gunshots rang out though the room as all the remaining shadows around Alexandria and Walter were destroyed. Standing at the doorway with a twisted grin was Alucard along with Seras. "Alexandria...Alexandria.." Alucard said slowly as he reloaded his gun. "You've been a very naughty girl. What should daddy dearest do about this?" he asked with a smirk.
Alexandria turned to see Alucard in the doorway, her eyes widening. She stood, kicking Walter aside with his blood dripping from her fingertips. "Ah, my pets." She laughed and the shadows reformed around her, like black fire. She roared as it rushed towards them both.
Seras was captivated, amazed... Beautiful, she thought.
Alucard rolled his eyes as he put his right arm down and raised his left, along with his Jackal. Grinning, Alucard fired at the shadows, all of them disintegrating before him as he laughed, "You do realize this is child's play for me right? Oh wait.." he paused. "I guess you wouldn't understand that yet." he said raising his head as his glasses flashed, revealing his fangs in a grin.
Alexandria growled and took a step towards Alucard before charging at him, full speed. Her eyes glowing brilliantly like his, the beast within full of rage and bloodlust. She really didn't care whose it was... as long as she got some. Feeling the warmth on her fingertips was just the beginning of it.
Alucard vanished just as she reached him and reappeared beside Walter. "It seems John Bull just keeps getting older and older." he said quietly as he looked down at Walter. "I wouldn't have expected you to be in this bad a shape Walter?' he asked as he continued looking down at him. "I-I'm fine." Walter replied with a small smile as he looked up to Alucard, "Just help the young mistress..." he replied before letting his head fall back down to rest.
She growled and turned to face him. "You're my pet. You do as you're told. Stay, boy.. STAY!" She yelled. The jagged shadows faltered and her eyes flickered. "I am your Master. You do as you're told." She stepped towards him, tightening her fists. She was just a child; his child. She panted slightly.
Alucard rotated his casull in his right hand and smiled slightly as he looked at. "You seem to be running out of steam. You'd better rest yourself before you get hurt. Your daddy will only ask once." he replied as his glasses slid down to the bridge of his nose, he stared at her with his piercing red eyes. "You will rest now." he continued hypnotically, "You wouldn't want to make your father angry now would you?" he asked as he continued to stare at her with his hypnotic eyes, trying to entrance her.
"Shut up..." She ordered him. She clenched her fists, looking into his eyes. She took a step closer. "...My father..." She growled and rushed at him again, faster than before. She ripped at him, the bloody fingernails shortening to normalcy. Everything around her seemed to spin, the scent of blood.. the rage, the fear, the confusion. She fell to the floor, her eyes closing slowly as a small whimper escaped her lips.
Kneeling beside her, Alucard felt at her throat and let out a sigh. "She fainted...seems she couldn't handle all the fun." Alucard said to himself as he looked over at Walter. "Seras..." he called to the police girl at the doorway. "Take Walter to the medic we have below, I'll be down their in a minute with the girl."
"Yes, my master..." She stood and smiled down to Alexandria. It was purely amazing. She smiled up to Alucard and bent down to pick Walter from the ground. She turned and pulled him up without effort and walked him out of the room, leaving the door open behind her. This was... interesting. She turned to Walter. "Are you alright, Walter?" She asked with a smile.
Walter simply nodded before letting his head fall back down, "Yes Seras...just tired..." he mumbled as his eyes closed.
"You did well, Walter... She's getting stronger." She grinned widely and rushed towards the infirmary, setting him down and ordering the doctors to fix him up, warning them that Alexandria would be down soon. Diane had already told them what happened... She had left the building, and they expected she wouldn't be coming back.
Alucard looked down at the little girl, thinking about the mess she had caused. Sighing, he picked her up and cradled her in his arms, "Well...maybe she does take after her father after all." he said to himself with a small smile as he began to walk to the door to take her to the medic below. Yes things were certainly getting interesting for Alucard now that he had seen what his daughter was capable of.
