Alucard's little sister: I'm sorry about not updating this sooner. To tell the truth I kind of…forgot about it.

Vivian: backhands the writer How could you?

The cliché 'greeting' scene

Seras Victoria watched as a small plane land at the 'black' airport. She looked at it carefully and gasped. Of all the planes she'd seen landing in Russia, this one was different. "Why would Sir Hellsing come to Russia?" she asked herself. "I better go and see what's up."

Alucard trailed behind Vivian and Anderson as they walked though the small airport. He wasn't sure why, but he had a bad feeling about something. He knew at any moment now, Integra would find a way to get to Russia as fast as she could, to get him. There was something else though, that was bugging him more. "Could this get any worse," he muttered.

"Hey!" shouted Vivian, "Don't ever say that! You know something always happens when you say that, so keep it down!"

Anderson crossed his arms. "Please, we already know the worst that can happen is Integra getting here before we turn Alucard back into a vampire." he said as they left the airport. "And, there is nothing worse than an angry Integra."

"What in the world is going on?" asked a voice that sounded very familiar. "Anderson, what are you doing here? And, who is the freaky human dressed up like Alucard? Who's the werewolf?"

Alucard was taken aback. There standing on his left was Seras Victoria. "You were wrong Anderson, this is worse," he said. He sighed, "Hello, Seras, the werewolf is Vivian McCoy."

"Oh, my gosh! Alucard! But you're human now! But-but how is that?" Seras cried.

"Long story, which is better said somewhere else," growled Vivian. She pulled on Alucard's sleeve and the four of them headed away from the airport. "Alright," said Vivian. "I know of an old abandoned hotel that still has heat, thanks to the Mob."

Later, after a long (and some what painful) explanation

"I still think that's a bit crazy," said Seras. "So, how are we going to turn Alucard back into a vampire? Not only that, but how in the world are you going to break into H.A.N.D.'s headquarters?"

The others were silent for a real long time. Vivian coughed nervously. "Well, actually I've just been improvising since we started," she confessed. "But, hey, if you can think of a good plan to get in, I'm all ears."

Seras thought about this for a moment. "Well, I did see a spot where there was hardly anyone there," she said "We could use that to get in. But, a good question right now, is what are they going to do with Alucard's essence as a vampire?"

"That is very clear if you know the history of H.AN.D.'s, Miss," growled a voice with a Russian accent. "If it is true then we don't have much time."

"And, how do we know that we can trust you?" asked Anderson. "You are part of the Russian Mafia, are you not? What do you have to gain from helping us?"

To everyone's (except Vivian) surprise, the Russian started laughing. "I like you, right to the point," he said. "The reason I, the leader of the mafia, am helping you out, actually happens to be for two reasons. One, revenge for something they had done which I won't go into. Second," he pointed to Vivian, "She and I go way back and I'd be happy to help you out with any weapon you might need to get into H.A.N.D.'s headquarters."

While Anderson talked to the Mafia leader, Alucard pulled Seras out of the hotel room and into another, where there was no one around. "Look," he said, "I know why you left the Hellsing Organization. So, tell me have you found him? Any trace?"

Seras became sad. "No, I have not found him yet," she said. "I only heard rumours that he was here in Russia, but no, he is no where to be seen."

"Damn it!" snapped Alucard. "He would be perfect for this 'mission' considering he's the master of stealth. Not that it's enough that Anderson knows right now I'm human. I hate being human. I just can't wait to be a vampire again."

Anderson rubbed the side of his head. "What I really want to know now, is what will they do with Alucard's vampirism?"

"In two days, the moon will turn blood red and the ghosts of Russia's bloody past will gather in one spot, causing all sorts of strange things to occur." It seemed like he was avoiding the question. "Now, someone may have hired H.A.N.D.'s to turn Alucard human and kill him, but they (the person or people who hired them) never said what to do with Alucard's vampire side once they made him human. Which bring us to your question," he lit a cigarette. "A few years ago H.A.N.D.'s lost their most powerful and their best leader they ever had. Rumor has it that during the blood red moon, with the help of those gathering ghosts and a vampire's power, you can bring someone back from the dead. I believe that is what they are trying to do."

"And, who knows what will happen if they succeed in doing that," said Vivian. "I'll tell you right now, I'd hate to be around to see it."

Anderson stood up. "Well, what are we waiting for!" he demanded. "Vivian McCoy, why don't you go get Alucard and Seras, and let's get rolling! There's no time to waste!" He ran out of the door.

The mafia leader looked over at Vivian who was laughing at Anderson. "You just have to tell me where in the world you find these people, my dear," he said.

"I don't 'find' them," she said. "I run into them wherever I go. Oh, please don't tell mother I changed my name again. I don't think she'll like it."

"For you, my lips are sealed."
