"And then- and then- hey--" She huffed. "Hey! Hey! Are you listening?" She poked him in the chest and he chuckled.
"I told you I was listening."
"And then he was like--BiTcH!" She growled, slurring. "What the hellz are joo--" She paused. "Aww screw it…" She gave up trying to act like this 'Inuyasha' person. "And then-- here's the good part-- I was all like-- Shut up!! Sit! And he kissezed the dirt and I was like HA! Fuck you!!" She swung her arm, spilling her drink everywhere.
"Wonderful!" He couldn't hold in his laugher as it bellowed throughout the large, dark room. Once his amusement subsided he raised his glass to his lips and took a sip. "Tell me another story." He ordered.
"There was the one time I was home, and then umm--" She frowned. "What was I saying?" She tried to get back her train of thought. "Oh's ya! I was like-- Sit!! FUcK You!!!" He chuckled, enjoying the entertainment he was giving her.
"Are you drunk?" He asked, a smirk on his face.
"Wa-What?" She looked at him with half closed eyes. "What the hell are you saying?! Speak up!!"
"I thought you couldn't get drunk?" He questioned.
"What are you talkin' about?"
"The other day you said--"
"STop LyinG!!" She yelled/slurred at him, face red. He laughed, taking another sip of his drink, enjoying himself. She only had one glass-- "Damn zombie…"
"I am a vampire." He corrected her.
"Whatever…" She mumbled, wiggling in his lap.
"You are so amusing, My Pet…" He patted her head in praise. This whole time he hasn't once been bored.
"I'm not a DOG!!" She growled, obviously upset. "I'm not…" She mumbled, and started to sniffle, tears forming in her eyes. "I'm not a dog…"
"Hmm…" Does it really bother her that much? He smirked and grabbed her chin, tilting it up. "So innocent." He bent down and licked her neck, making her shiver. So she does enjoying it after all. "How about you agree to let me take that innocence away from you?"
A loud crack tore through the room, followed by a splash. He blinked, eyes wide, completely stunned.
"Jerk!" She huffed, now standing, and stomping her foot on the floor.
"So feisty…" He chuckled, and rubbed his bruised cheek.
"S-shut up!!" She yelled, face red with anger. "Sit! Sit! Sit! Sit!!!" She growled and stomped-- more like stumbled-- out of the room, slamming the door shut.
He chuckled and ran his hand though his wet and sticky hair, from the drink she so generously decided to share with him-- Amusing indeed…
Kagome groaned as she sat up in bed. She placed her hand on her skull and moaned in displeasure. What happened? Why does her head feel like a train wreck? She wobbled as she got out of bed, standing up. She looked down and raised an eyebrow noticing she was covered in wine. She stumbled to her dresser and pulled out an extra outfit that Walter was kind enough to make, and walked to the bathroom. What happened…?
She sighed as the warm liquid fell unto her skin. Raising her hands to her face she rubbed it in frustration. Why can't she remember? The last thing she could recalled was that she was drinking with Master…
"Master!" She yelled out.
"Yes?" His amused voice called above her. Time seemed to stand still as she slowly raised her head, afraid of what she would see.
"AHHH!!! PERVERT!!!" She reached over and grabbed the shower curtain, wrapping it around her. He chuckled at her embarrassed expression. "What the hell is wrong with you!? Don't you know anything about privacy!?" She started to throw bottles and razors at his head that was sticking out of the ceiling.
"You were the one who called me." He argued, while dodging the flying bathing utensils. After she ran out of ammo he deemed it safe and he gently floated into the tub, after turning off the water with his magic.
"Why are you here?!" She questioned him, fire in her eyes.
"Well, I wished to speak with you, but you were busy. Yet luck would have it that you called me, so here I am." He smirked.
"If you want to talk to me, use telepathy!" She yelled, poking him in the chest, while making sure to hold on to the curtain with her other hand.
"And miss this?" He smirked. "You look so heated, it makes my own blood boil seeing you this angry." He hissed in delight. She sighed, rubbing her face in frustration.
"What happened last night?" She asked.
"You got drunk." He answered.
"Drunk? I don't get drunk…"
"That's what you said, but I guess you were wrong." He smirked and lifted her chin in the air. "You were so innocent." He mumbled. "When I asked you if you would let me take it away, you slapped me, and threw your drink in my face." He chuckled.
"Well, if what you said was true, you deserved it!" She blushed, huffing.
"I guess so…" He leaned further down and licked her rapidly beating pulse, causing her to shiver. "But such disrespect to your master." He sighed in disappointment, but she could feel his fangs as he smirked. "It seems you must be punished…" Her eyes widened and she swallowed the lump in her throat.
"But I was drunk." She argued.
"I thought you couldn't get drunk?" He questioned, amusement laced in his words.
"I thought so too…" She mumbled, obviously upset with this new information. Lately she has not been herself…
"I suppose I could over look your punishment." He told her. She sighed in relief. "The reason I wanted to talk to you, was to inform you that I will be leaving for a short time."
"You are going to leave?"
"Yes. My new enemy is around and I wish to confront him." He said with a grin.
"You sound like your enjoying yourself."
"Oh, but I am." He hissed in delight.
"You want me to accompany you?"
"No. What I want you to do is look after Integra for me."
"Hmm…" She smiled.
"Something wrong?"
"No." She shook her head. "It just sounded more like a request from a friend, instead of an order." She noticed.
"I see…" He smirked and backed up into the wall. "I'm counting on you, My Pet. Do not let her get hurt while I'm gone."
"Of course not."
"Good girl." His grinned widened as he dissolved into the wall, out of sight. Suddenly the water turned back on and she was doused with the ice cold liquid.
"MASTER!!!" She shrilled.
His chuckled echoed throughout the bathroom, showing his amusement.
Kagome sighed as she walked out of the shower, drying her hair. She placed the towel in the hamper and walked up the steps, out of the basement. When she arrived on the first floor she was greeted by Walter and some blonde headed woman she has never seen before.
"Hey Walter." She greeted him.
"Ah, Miss Kagome." He greeted back with a smile.
"Who's this?" She asked, motioning towards the woman.
"Why this is Laura. She is Integra's younger sister." He introduced them.
"Oh?" She looked at her more closely. "That's funny, you don't look anything alike." She blushed. "Sorry. That was rude of me."
"No harm done…" She gave a smile, yet she could tell it was fake. Strange--
"Speaking of Integra, where is she?"
"She is on her way back from a mission at the castle."
"I see. Inform me when she gets back."
"Of course." He bowed and she turned going back to the basement. She frowned when she felt a heated glare boring into her back, yet when she looked, that woman was openly staring at her, an angry look plastered onto her face. Hmm…
Kagome sighed as she stared at her ceiling. It's already been a while, why hasn't she showed? She shifted from one side to the other. Suddenly a feeling tingled at the edge of her senses and she quickly sat up. She frowned, for it quickly left just as fast as he appeared. Something doesn't feel right-- She left her room in a hurry, closing the door behind her.
She swiftly scaled the stairs and found herself on the first floor. She easily spotted Walter and walked up to him.
"Hey. Has Integra arrived yet?" She asked.
"Oh. Yes. She came back a while ago." He answered.
"I thought I asked you to tell me when she showed?" She allowed the shocked and hurt tone to slip though her voice.
"I'm sorry Miss Kagome, I must have forgotten. I am getting on in the years."
"Yes…" She raised an eyebrow at his strange behavior. He would never forget something like that. He is Walter for Pete sakes! "I'll umm, go see her now." She turned around and quickly scaled the stairs, going to her office. She arrived and gave the door a gentle tap.
"Enter." She spoke. She sighed in relief, glad she was okay. She didn't know why but something seemed wrong, and it made her feel on edge. She opened the door, walking inside.
"Hey." She smiled.
"Hello Kagome. Was there something you need?"
"Master told me to look after you. So I was just checking to see if you were alright."
"I see." She took a small puff of her cigar and sighed. "As you can see, I'm fine."
"I know. I was just wondering if I could stand outside your door." She asked.
"As long as you don't bother me."
"Thank you." She smiled and turned, about to leave, but then stopped. "Umm…"
"Yes?"
"About your sister?"
"Yes, what about her?"
"Where is she?"
"She is in one of the rooms, resting."
"So you do have a sister?" She was surprised. Why hasn't she heard of her till now?
"Yes--" She paused and reached up, rubbing the bridge of her nose. "Ugh…" She groaned as if in discomfort. "Yes, I have a sister."
"So you talked to her--"
"Get out." She ordered, making Kagome jump in surprise by the sudden outburst. "Can't you see I'm busy?" She barked out.
"Right." She bowed. "Sorry if I upset you." She quickly turned and walked to the door, closing it behind her.
Alucard smirked as he walked though the castle's dark hallways. He is here, he can feel it.
"What are you doing here? Has your hunger driven you here?" He asked. "I do not know your name yet, but I think we have a lot in common." He spoke into the shadows, knowing he was there. "You've also put aside your pride and learned to bow before human masters. Hmm. How pitiful." He smirked. "I assume you have some power to back up your pretension?"
"Alucard." He slowly spoke his name, finally stepping out of the shadows and showing himself.
"What is your name?"
"Incognito." He answered with the same slow manner.
"A nobody?" He laughed at the thought. "Well, I don't mind that. My name is an anagram too." He confessed. "We're two originals who are kept by humans." He spoke, pulling out his Jackal. "Let's take our time and have some fun." He smirked.
"…" He said nothing.
"What's wrong Incognito? Don't you have any human weapons?" He questioned.
The man slowly extended his arm and a large gun flew out of his jacket sleeve and into his hand. His grin widened, impressed.
"An Armscore 40mm MGL." He easily recognized the weapon. "What kind of ammunition? Explosive tips?" The man reached into his slot and pulled out his casing and squeezed it. Dark, twisted metal fell out of it. Man of few words, uh? He smirked. "The curse of the Dark Continent?" He hissed in delight. "Let's begin!" He raised his weapon, taking aim.
"You and I are different." He spoke, his purple markings glowed.
"What did you say?" He lowered his gun, surprised by his words.
"You don't have a master to serve, anymore." Incognito smirked. His eyes widened.
"What have you done!?" He snarled. The strange man took that time to fire his weapon, catching him off guard and hitting him in the shoulder. "Damn…" He hissed.
She couldn't help but yawn, leaning further against the wall. It hasn't been too long, but the quiet atmosphere seemed tiresome and depressing, making her sleepy. That fact was very strange. She just woke up a few hours ago--
"Excuse me." A soft voice called to her.
"Uh?" She turned, seeing Laura. For some reason she looked surprised. Was there something on her face?
"Is it alright if I go see her?" She asked.
"Sure." She looked at her with half open eyes, and yawned lazily.
"Thank you." She said with a grin, and quietly entered the room.
That was strange. She yawned again and clicked her tongue together, shifting in her spot. She wasn't sure why, but she doesn't feel anything when she is near that woman. No evil intent, or anything-- If she was a vampire or something like that she would sense her. She doesn't sense anything, so she must not be one, but why does she still get his strange feeling when around her? She shrugged. She didn't know.
Now that she thought about it, she did sense-- something-- not too long ago. It was barely there, but it was something. She shook her head. Something that weak couldn't do any harm to them, besides it went away after a few seconds--
Her eyes widened when the smell of blood entered her nose, followed by a grunt. She quickly ran towards the door and rammed it open. What she saw made her blood run cold. She watched as Laura licked her lips, that were covered in blood, while Integra sat in her chair, shirtless, and a large stab wound on her stomach. She cursed inside her head. How could she allow that to happen?!
She called upon her bow, but then looked at her hands in confusion when nothing happened. She shook her hands, as if that would allow it to show itself. She growled in frustration and charged her instead, quickly noticing she was moving much slower then usual. The woman laughed at her and jumped in the air, dodging her attack, the bloody letter opener still in hand.
The woman came down at her, attempting to cut her with the letter opener, but she dodge just in time and kicked her in the gut, forcing her to drop the weapon. While she was unguarded she reached out and grabbed her by the throat, lifting her in the air. The creature gasped and grabbed her arm with her clawed hand. She placed some of her powers into her hand but growled when she did not turn into dust.
"What the hell!!" She snarled in frustration.
The woman laughed at her, so she tightened her grip. The creature gasped for air, franticly clawing her arm. Kagome smirked and placed her thumb to her lips. She flinched as she bit the tip, and allowed some blood to flow out of the wound. She pressed her thumb against her enemy's forehead.
The monster hissed in pain as smoke rose from the burn wound caused by her blood. She started to chant a familiar incantation she learned long ago. The creature started to scream bloody murder as her face slowly got eaten away, turning into dust. She sighed as she dropped the faceless woman. When she hit the floor, she instantly turned into ash, scattering across the ground.
"You alright?" She walked over to her stabbed companion.
"Yes."
"She didn't bite you did she?"
"No, you got here just in time."
"Good." She sighed in relief. "We should get you to the doctor--"
"What's this?" A familiar deep voice flowed into the room.
"Oh, Master!" she laughed nervously. "Nice to see you back so soon."
"What happened?!" He growled, walking over to Integra's chair. She flinched at the angry tone in his voice.
"Well, there was an intruder. She somehow got past me and--"
"You let her get hurt!?" He gave Integra a look over, not liking what he saw. "I thought I told you to watch her!" He growled.
"I know. I'm sorry but--"
"I trusted you." He hissed, his eyes flashing red in anger. She winced at the hateful tone he was giving her. That's so unlike him-- "Get out of here." He ordered.
"W-what?"
"I trusted you, and you betrayed me!" He sent her a heated glare and she backed away. "I thought you was a least competent enough to do this one simple thing, but I guess I was wrong!"
"I said I was sorry!!" She yelled back, finding her courage.
"Get out of here! I don't ever want to see you again!" He snarled. Her eyes widened and she gasped. A sharp pain hit her chest and she placed her hand over her heart, trying to sooth it, but it was not helping.
"Get out of here!!! I don't ever want to see you again!!!" The voice of her late master echoed in her mind. He sounds just like him…
She placed her pointer into her mouth and bit the tip. She mumbled a small chant and created a circle in the air in front of her. A pink portal appeared and she quietly stepped through it.
"As you wish…" She whispered just before the portal closed.
He watched as the doctors stitched the wound in her stomach, while transfusing the blood that she lost in the attack. As he looked on, his mind was fogged over, not sure what to do. All he can think about was his master, and how she was hurt--
"I'm not a dog."
He growled, shaking his head from the image. He looked up and sighed, seeing his master coming to.
"Do you know who I am, Sir Integra?" The male doctor asked her.
"Doctor Trevilian." She whispered.
"Good. You're going to be just fine." He smiled. Alucard walked to her and she looked up at him.
"Tell me that the argument you had with Kagome was a dream." She glared at him. He smirked. Though she is weak, she still has that fiery spirit.
"No." He did not lie. "It was no dream."
"You stupid--!" She sat up, but then hissed as pain shot through her.
"You shouldn't get up--" He tried to warn her, but she interrupted him.
"Shut up!" She growled. "What the hell were you thinking!?" She grabbed for anything she could reach, which was an empty bedpan, and whacked him in the face with it. He laughed, finding it amusing. "What the hell is so funny!?"
"Glad to see your feeling better…"
"I would have been much worse if Kagome wasn't there." She huffed.
"What did you say?" He questioned his ears.
"I would've turned into a ghoul if she didn't show up. She stopped her just in time." She sighed. "You should find her and apologize."
"I don't apologize."
"Stubborn vampire…" She snorted. "Damn, I need a cigar, your getting on my nerves…" She mumbled.
He chuckled, finding her bossy attitude comforting…
Alucard sighed as he swirled the red liquid inside his glass. For some reason drinking wine is not as fun as it use to be…
"I would've turned into a ghoul if she didn't show up. She stopped her just in time." She sighed. "You should find her and apologize."
A small pain hit his chest and he growled. He did not feel guilty. He did what he did and he does not regret it! He snorted and took a swig of his wine.
"Glad you liked it." She smiled at him.
"You spiked my drink?" He questioned.
He sighed. He did have more fun when he drank with her--
"And then- and then- hey--" She huffed. "Hey! Hey! Are you listening?" She poked him in the chest and he chuckled.
"I told you I was listening."
"And then he was like--BiTcH!" She growled, slurring. "And I was like-- SiT! Fuck You!!!"
Who knew such a tiny female had such strong language? He gave a small chuckle. He did like how she would always make him laugh with her strange entertainment.
"Was there something you need?" She asked. He grinned, his fang poking from underneath his lips.
"My boots." He stated, pointing towards his feet resting on the table.
"Your boots?" She sounded confused.
"Yes. My boots, take them off." He commanded. She took a deep breath and her eyebrow twitched in annoyance. He couldn't help but chuckle in amusement.
"Hmm…" He took another sip of his wine. She would always do what he said, if she could actually do it. She stuck by her rules and orders, no mater what they where, unless it endangered him.
"I told you before. My Master's life is my top priority. It goes above all other commands."
"Are you saying that if I kissed you, my life would be in danger?" He found her excuses to be rather amusing. "Why?" He smirked, pulling her face closer to his.
"I would zap you out of rage for stealing my fist kiss!"
He chuckled. She was a strange one. He stared at his glass, his eyes fogging over. He sighed.
"You saw my power, yet you are not afraid of me?"
"I could never be afraid of you, Master." She gave a small laugh.
"Tsk." He growled, his chest suddenly feeling tight.
"Only a fool would give up something as delicious as you."
"Grr…" He covered his face with his gloved hand. His jaw tightened in frustration.
"I was no longer needed." Silent tears rolled down her cheek.
He hissed as his blood started to heat up.
"I did as he wished, and made it so he could never see me again."
"Rahh!" He roared and threw the glass in anger. It hit the wall and smashed into tiny pieces, smearing the red liquid allover its stony surface. He took several deep breathes and huffed. "I don't regret anything!" He yelled, as if trying to convince himself.
He stared, watching the liquidly slowly creep down the wall. His chest tightened once again and he sighed. Maybe he was a little too harsh on her? He started to feel a little guilty…
"Pet." He called her. He waited a few seconds, but was surprised when she did not show. "Pet?" He tried again. Several minutes passed, but the familiar pricking of her arrival did not attack his sense. He slowly stood up.
"Pet!" He used telepathy. When he did not receive an answer her growled. He molded into the shadows and stepped into her room.
"Pet." He called to her, looking around the small room. He snorted. He walked to the bathroom door and swung it open. "Pet!" He growled when she was nowhere in sight.
"Pet." He appeared on the training ground, but she was not there either. His blood froze, and his skin felt numb. "Pet!" He slammed the door to Police Girl's room open, scaring her in the process.
"Master-! What are you doing?!" Seras objected, starting at him like he was crazy. He looked around but did not find her. He growled and slammed the door shut without saying anything.
"What is your bidding, My Master?" She spoke.
"Pet?" He softly called, his voice echoing down the dark corridor. When he finally arrived in the end of the tunnel he looked around. "Pet?" He called once more, hoping to find her. He sighed, pressing his forehead against the stone wall beside him. She wasn't here after all…
He thought for sure she would be in the cave where he first found her-- He growled. Where is she!? He looked everywhere. All her favorite spots. He even looked in the city, in the shopping areas where she goes to during the day--
"Pet…" He mumbled.
"Master…"
"Yes Master?" She poked her head out of the portal.
"Excellent shot Master."
"MASTER!!" She shrilled.
"Kagome…" He whispered. "What have I done?"
