*I'm skipping a few years here, Mina is four, her mother is away on a
meeting with the Queen and Seras is watching her and it's just a narrative
for now.*
"Seras? How come my mommy left again?"
"She and Walter went to see the Queen again, they'll be back."
"Oh. Is there someone else in the casle?"
"Like who?"
"I saw a man last night after my bath, and mommy talks to someone but when Walter brings my in to say good night there's no body there."
"I don't know, sweetie, I'll be right back ok, can you stay here in the hall until I come back?"
The little girl nods and Seras goes to the basement. She knows very well who the man is that Mina had seen, Alucard has been watching her again. He seemed to drop off the radar for a while, missions were completed, but Seras hadn't seen him around the mansion much for the past few years. Why did he start now? She was half the way down to his chamber when she heard a scream, scuffling feet and a gun shot.
"Mina!"
Dashing back up the stairs, she finds Alucard in the hall where she left the girl his gun drawn and smoking, but the doors are open and the child is gone. Her toys are scattered and her favorite toy is broken. Stuttering, Seras comes up beside her master and stares at him.
"Master? Where is she?"
"Gone."
Integra and Walter came back later that night only to find Seras in Mina's room and no child. Alucard was against the wall, glaring into space.
"What do you mean she's gone? What happened Seras, where is my baby?"
"I don't know ma' ma..I told her to stay in the hall, I'd be right back and then I heard a scream, something that sounded like someone scuffing the floor, and my master's gun."
"A-Alucard, you were there? Where is she, where is Mina!?"
Alucard didn't answer her, only watched his master fall to the floor in depression. The phone on the desk rang; Walter answered it and stood there for a moment before putting it down and coming towards the broken woman.
"FREAK attack, Sir Hellsing. Downtown in that old bar, it seems to be a factory for them now."
"Alucard..Seras...you go, now..."
They followed the order, Seras apologizing yet again for her mistake. The bar had been a vampire haven by day and a strip joint by night, though now it was a mess, burned and black, empty. Or it had been empty for several years now, but now it seemed the FREAKs had taken over again, using it for their own benefit. Hellsing operatives blasted their way in there, but found it empty, except for one vampire and small child.
The vampire was Yan Valentine, the child was Mina. The agents didn't want to kill the child, though most of them didn't know it was Integra's kid either. The commander called Victoria in who merely growled as her master appeared behind her. He didn't seem too surprised that it was Valentine; in fact he seemed to be a little pleased with it.
"Daring move, taking the daughter of Hellsing, you're pathetic, turning into a kidnapper rather than a vampire."
"Shut the fook up! The girl will die if you try anything, Hellsing. And you killed my brother and I want payback."
"Try me you punk ass piece of shit."
Yan pushed the child into a booth and yelled at her to stay quite or die, he had one of his ghouls sit there and watch her, a gun to her head the whole time. Seras could do nothing to help the child, or her master, she was up to her arms in ghouls, shooting them as fast as she could and trying to keep an eye on the fight and the child.
Alucard resisted the urge to play with his prey; he took the easier route of shooting Yan in the head with the Jackal and ending it. As he burst into dust, Mina screamed again, the ghoul pulling back the trigger and getting his own head blown apart. She was terrified of everyone, when Alucard came towards her to take her home she screamed and pushed herself away. He stood there, just staring at her, trying to get her to come to him, but there was someone else there as well. Taking this as an opportunity, the stranger through a sword into the vampire's back, knocking him down."
"Hellsing is now a rescue service is it? Well now this is an interesting turn. I will kill you this time. I am the Divine Messenger of God, and will purify this place and you right along with it."
Alucard just laughed at him, an evil laugh, angry and full of malice.
"Judas Priest now is not the time for this. Destroy the building and this child and your master will have mine down his throat for a very long time."
"She has a child does she? Come here little one, I won't hurt you."
Her fear of Alucard subsided and the girl went to Anderson, he looked like a father from the church and being young she took him as such, holding out her arms for his comfort. He took her and proceeded to leave with her, abandoning Alucard and the rest of Hellsing's agents.
"Integra's not going to like this, is she master Alucard?"
"No police girl, she's not."
"Seras? How come my mommy left again?"
"She and Walter went to see the Queen again, they'll be back."
"Oh. Is there someone else in the casle?"
"Like who?"
"I saw a man last night after my bath, and mommy talks to someone but when Walter brings my in to say good night there's no body there."
