Morality


After happy 18 hours Alucard was grouching, his shift had arrived again, he was jealous of Integra, the little monster slept during her shift and part of Walter's. And to spice it all up, the butler had refueled the child with several bowls of cereal and now the little imp was ready to torment the vampire again. The worse thing was, Seras had left for a mission and he had to miss all the fun because of a freaky brat which kept calling him batman.

He paced the halls grumbling to himself, However he didn't find Integra's nephew anywhere inside the house. Instead he spotted Adam sitting on the front wall of the gates, legs dangling, looking in the direction of Integra's office window through a binocular. He almost looked like a golden figurine in the rays of setting sun.

This kid really has a strange day regimen, he should be preparing for bed right now. Alucard had asked Integra about the strange behavior of her godson, all she could say, was he hadn't adjusted to the change of time zones yet. Still vampire thought it was strange. Children these days . . . . He trailed off.

The rays of setting sun weren't that annoying, he might as well take a walk.

- "What are you doing Adam?" Alucard really was curios. He also looked in the same direction the kid did.

- "Watching out for flying ink – wells, batman. Seras said they usually appear outside auntie's office." The vampire allowed himself one of his dark chuckles.

- "My you really have a sinister laugh for someone who wears pajamas with small bats all over them." Stated Adam casually. This statement deserved one wink and blink from Alucard. Now he turned to him

- "How did you get to know about that?"

- "The strange, blonde girl told me."

- "Seras?"

- "No the other one, which follows Seras around. She had a braid and an eye patch."

- "Pip?" Alucard was stunned by a suddenly calm demeanor of the child, he really was a freak.

- "Oh, yeah, I thought it was a strange name." Adam replied, his gaze still glued to Integra's window.

- "But, he's a man, you know." The kid now turned to face the vampire.

- "I don't believe you. Why is his hair long?"

- "The length of the hair doesn't define the gender. Tell me, did you think I was a girl too?"

- "Yes." The jaw of our beloved nosferatu dropped.

- "Then why did you address me like a man?"

- "I asked Walter." Adam shrugged and returned his look to Integra's office.

- "OK. Then what gender Integra is?" The boy turned again in his seat and watched Alucard with wide eyes.

- "To be honest, I don't know." A thought entered vampires mind and he grinned evilly.

- " I can go and ask her." He offered playfully,because atruly sinister idea crossed his mind and it was perfect for the occasion.

- "Yeey! Let's do it now." Some of Adam's common cheer returned.

Walter couldn't hide a smile when he saw Alucard pacing across the yard and Adam following him closely. There sure will be more mess tonight; there is no knowing of what they'll do when they're both together.

When they were just outside Integra's door, Alucard stopped abruptly, and Adam ran straight into him. The vampire faced Adam, who nearly exclaimed

- "You've got red ey…." The boy was cut off by nosferatus palm.

- "Shush, do you want to disturb your auntie, you know she's busy." Alucard whispered and received a nod from the child. "Good, now I will go in there and you shall remain hidden behind the door." Another nod from Adam.

The vampire inhaled like a student before entering the examination class and walked into Integra's office, while her nephew observed him wide eyed. The door shut and all he heard was muffled voices.

- "Good evening master, tis a fine evening isn't it?" Integra was in a strange mood but decided to make fun of her servant; after all due to him she hadn't slept her fill.

- "What now? Do I have to shoo a monster away from your coffin? Honestly, Alucard I thought you were over the fear of the dark."

- "You're in a mood for jokes, I must be lucky, master, but I still have a question for you. What gender are you?" She almost swallowed her cigar.

- "What, are you out of your mind vampire or that's just the effect of children upon you?"

Steadily Integras voice grew louder, behind the wooden door, Adam had noticed the change and soon Alucard exited the room.

- "Did she tell you?"

- "No she didn't."

- "Now what will we do?"

- "I have an idea. Would you like to know?"

- "Sure! Flying ink – wells aren't all that fun."

- "Good, but I will want something in return."

- "You name it!"

- "You will not call me by any othernamebut my own."

- "You mean Al . . , Alu . . , Alucard?" He stressed. „It is a difficult name. I'll call you uncle Al."

- "Anything but demeanor."

- "Dementor." Adam corrected.'

- "Yes, whatever."

- "Now tell me how are we gonna find out?"

- "Have you ever heard about polls?"

- "What is a poll?"

- "The poll is a summary of collective opinion on the subject, in other words we ask everybody and the most popular answer should be the correct one."

- "But that is a good idea, but also a great lot of work."

- "Don't worry, I will help and we may as well find out several other things like why is she so stressed and unhappy and furthemore, how to cure it."

- "OOO that is definitely a good idea."

Several days later Walter was astonished, first of all, Alucard had taken over the most of Adam's shifts which, of course was extremely convenient, and suspicious as well. The next strange thing was that the vampire tamed such wild, exotic beasts like PC, printerand Xerox. Seras even asked what her master was up to, but he as well as Adam kept saying such enigmatic things like "you'll see" and it "is a surprise".


Poor poor Integra, not even imagining whats floating her way next chapter will be the precise comy of the sinisterpoll

Ps what didyou think about my idea for the next fic?
