It's chapter 23 and I still don't own a thing. I also want to thank all my readers/ reviewers for their continued support of this fic. I really do appreciate people reading my works. Anyway, this is going to start a new phase in this epic, and I hope you enjoy it more than ever! And I don't believe in testing things on animals, though Harker does. So please don't start trying to send animal rights activists my way. Mew

~*~*~*~*~ June 12
My research on regenerators has continued, much to the disapproval of my dear cousin Teggy. I only wish to learn what the heir to Hellsing will be capable of, and if it will be too much of an unnatural creature to lead such an organization as I now lead.
Teggy doesn't want me to harm the child, so she fears that my research will lead me to hate and then destroy the baby. How could I possibly kill my own child? I would not even be able to kill my own child if he was an incubus that could perform acts of sorcery and was bitten by a werewolf, while I'm sure my dear cousin would shoot such a creature at point blank range, no matter the relation to her.
As for my research, I have discovered a way to create a regenerator in much the same way a FREAK vampire is created. Using a microchip implanted in the base of the neck, all of the rats and then chimps in the experiments were able to grow back body parts that were cut off within an hour.
This is a highly interesting discovery, as since it can be determined what chemical impulses create a regenerator, for all medical and social purposes, the scientists of the Hellsing Organization can make an inhibitor for the regeneration process, so that my son will appear to be a normal human in every medical test performed upon him, while still allowing him the luxury of being able to survive any accident or injury to his person.
I showed the results to Walter as he helped me through my afternoon and evening working the Organization, and my retainer seemed less than impressed with my findings. Perhaps he already realized this technology and research exists, but is refusing to tell me such things.
Alucard slipped out of the mansion while Teggy was still asleep, informing me via Seras that he had a personal mission he was to attend to, and he didn't know when he would return. If it wasn't his fault that we were in this entire mess to begin with, I'd be highly amused with his sudden departure away from Teggy. There is only so much pain and torture that any man can take, and my dear cousin refuses to acknowledge this concept.
I dread what will happen when Teggy finds out that he won't be returning for quite some time while he is away on personal matters. Seras has already pledged to help keep her away from me if Teggy becomes enraged with the state of affairs.
Seras is a wonderful young woman. Pity that she is a vampire, for I would love to have my fun with such a girl.
God, I pray that you will help me and your beloved Hellsing Organization through these trying times. I ask for the strength to deal with the demon that you have sent me to cleanse, and I ask for a companion to help promote your Almighty words and deeds, for I am lonely as I fight in your name.
Also, God, keep my child safe from his mother, and please help Teggy overcome the demon living inside her soul, for I know she is truly a good person that just succumbed to temptation.

Your humble servant, Harker van Hellsing
