Alucard's Familiar: "Yay, I fixed my bug problem, and wrote a chapter fun fun! A note for a reviewer. I spell Alucard this way because that's how I've always spelled it. Please just bare with me on the spelling, it's the way my fingers know it. Sorry.
I don't own Hellsing or pokemon. Story Time!
Chapter 7
Her eyes fluttered open some time later. She sat up and looked around the empty room, surprised to find herself inside. Integra sat up and looked around, then she realized she was inside Professor Oak's lab, lying in one of the random couches placed all over the lab.
She looked out the window and found the sun setting. She wondered how long she had been asleep, and where Alucard had resided during the day.
Brock came in yawning, with Ash close behind doing the same. Misty followed carrying Mew and Professor Oak and Mewtwo came in at the end.
"I see we're not the only ones who just woke up," Misty smiled as she looked over at Integra.
"How long have we been asleep?" Integra asked.
"Well, Ash, Brock, and I slept all through yesterday and we've been up and around a little bit today, though we did manage to fall asleep again about four hours ago." Misty said. "You on the other hand have slept for two days straight. You haven't woken up for anything, even when Alucard threatened to bite you, you didn't even stir. It was kind of funny when Alucard made a face when you wouldn't wake up."
"I usually would at that threat," Integra said as he stood. "Where is he anyways?"
"We've had him locked in a closet for a while," Oak answered.
"And he's stayed in there?" Integra asked.
"Yes, the doors locked, I can't imagine how he could get out," the professor said with a frown.
Integra looked out the window again and confirmed it would be dark enough. "Alucard." She called his name softly as she stood up, and the tall vampire appeared by her side. She smirked as she watched their faces go pale and their mouths dropped. Even the two psychic pokemon looked a little queasy at the fact that they had just been fooled into a false sense of security.
"He...just," Oak stuttered.
"He was being good," Integra smiled. "He could blow this place up if he wanted to."
"You're kidding right?" Ash asked and Integra shook her head. Ash went pale and fell over, along with the rest of his companions.
"Well, while they're napping, I want to have a talk with you," Alucard said as he picked up his master and draped her over his shoulder like he would a sack of grain. Usually he would have expected his master to fight, but all she did was chuckle a bit and let herself be carried outside and set onto t he grass.
Alucard lowered himself down onto the grass as well, accepting that it was now the usual way his master sat when in this world. His hat, glasses, and coat disappeared as he settled on the ground facing his master, ruby red eyes staring into sapphire blue ones.
"What has been going on since my disappearance?" Integra asked before Alucard could say anything. She was still as sharp and clever as ever.
"We haven't had much of anything going on," Alucard answered. "None of the men go out, and Seras and I usually do a sweep of the city every once and a while, keeping the ghouls and other undead freaks at bay a little at a time." He looked at her for minute, trying to decipher how she would react to the next bit of information he was about to give.
"The Vatican is trying take over the situation now," Alucard said with a bitter distaste in his voice. "I haven't been able to corner that damned Anderson either. He keeps running away, coward." He paused, "Maxwell has taken over your position at Hellsing, much to all of our disapproval. He threatens to kill off families to keep the loyalties. Unfortunately, it's been working."
Integra was furious. There wasn't any denying it, but what sort of action to take was another question entirely. The question was, was she going to go back at all?
"I'm not sure I can go back Alucard," Integra said truthfully. "I've changed from the person I was four years ago. I'm not the same cold hard person that I left as. I care now, and I don't think I could keep an emotionless look anymore."
"But you will need that if you face Maxwell," Alucard said. "It is your duty."
"Duty," Integra sighed. "That's what got me into this mess. I thought if I could get away from duty for a little while I would stay sane. It seems I've stayed away for far too long." She looked at the ground. "I can't go back, I wouldn't survive. It would be like you going into a pack of ghouls. The ghouls are dead the minute you see them. If I go back there, I will be just like them, dead once they look at me."
Alucard frowned, he had never known his master to try and run from a problem. Yet again, she had never been faced with one quite like this before. "The choice is yours, no matter where you go, I will find some way to follow you."
"But you can't stay here," Integra said, "There would be no place for you when the sun comes up."
"If that is my fate then," Alucard said.
Integra stared into the vampires ruby red eyes in surprise. She had never known that Alucard would go to giving his own existence just to be with her. "I won't let you do that. The end of your existence will not come from me staying here."
"Then what do you propose we do?" Alucard had his mind made up. He wouldn't let his master disappear from even his senses again.
"I'm not sure," Integra said.
"Before you make up you mind, let me give you one more bit of information," Alucard said. "I have already told you that Maxwell has taken your position at Hellsing? He's also taken your position at the Round Table. His decisions are brash and not thought out. Not to mention it has brought about attacks to the Hellsing Manor itself, by both FREAKS and true undead alike. He nearly ordered Walter executed for trying to give him advise." That's what he wanted out, the Walter part, but he had to put it out in such a way that it wouldn't seem so, malicious.
"What?" Integra hadn't thought about threats to the people closer to her.
"He's threatened, Walter, Seras, and me with deaths that we cannot get away from so we obey him," Alucard explained. "When I saw that portal open and felt your presence I dove for it, not before putting a few bullets through it to make sure there was nothing seriously threatening on the other side."
"You nearly put a bullet through me you dunder head," Integra said lowly, without putting any true force behind it.
Alucard grinned, "I had noticed, and I was almost sorry I missed. Do know how utterly furious I was with you when you disappeared? I swore I would put ten bullets into you, bring you back, and do it again!"
She blinked at him. She hadn't expected him to say that, or confess to it at least. "Alucard."
"I said I would stab you, do something to you!" Alucard was blurting out everything he had to say. "You scared me dammit! You scared the hell and fight out of me when you disappeared! Are you happy? You made your vampire curl up in a fetal position and sit in the corner of his room sulking. Are you happy?"
Integra thought about that one and started laughing for all it was worth. Alucard in a fetal position, that was something she never thought could happen. She doubled over with laughter and Alucard looked at her as of she had gone crazy. He had never heard his master laugh like that before.
"That's funny, you, in a fetal position!" Integra managed to say before a new round of laughter bubbled up again.
Alucard smiled at the memory and realized it was rather funny. He joined her in the laugh and soon they found themselves snickering in each other's arms. Actually it was more like Integra sitting in Alucard's lap and he holding onto her.
They were quiet in an instant and Integra looked up the vampire. She stole herself and said it would be worth it as she wrapped her arms around him and hugged him tightly.
One shock right after another. Alucard was taken by complete surprise at his master's show of unexpected affection. He didn't know whether he should be yelled at or shot in the head by one of the weird creatures that she used to fight with. He decided to throw caution to the wind and hugged her back, hoping he wouldn't get stung.
To his surprise, Integra just tightened her grip on him and sighed with contentment.
He decided just how far he could push his luck and tilted her chin up so he could look at her. He slowly lowered his head so his lips brushed against hers. She didn't object, and Alucard kissed her, defying every rule in Integra's book.

Misty watched from the window wither mouth hanging open.
{So this is the forbidden love she was talking about,} Misty said. {I guess I can understand why. But I've never seen anything so meant to be.} Misty pulled her gaze away from the window, "I don't think I was supposed to see that."
"Not meant to see what?" Brock asked.
Misty made a hushing motion with her finger, the motioned for him to look out the window. Brock took one look before pulling away. "Darn."
"What?" Misty asked.
"I wanted to ask her out!" Brock cried as stupid tears came to his eyes.
"Not a chance with that one Brock," Misty said with a sweat drop. "Besides, it looks like she's already been taken." Brock made a pouty face as stared out the window at the romantic seen.

Alucard pulled away from there kissing moment and looked down at the woman in his arms. She had a slight blush on her face, which made Alucard smirk.
"Shut up," she said as she sat up and rolled out of his lap. She stood up and went to walk back over to the table when Alucard spun her around and kissed her again. She fell limp against him, enjoying the moment of pure passion and love. She had never known something like this, and now it was all coming at her in a rush.
She finally pulled away from him and looked at her watch. It was 8:00pm.
"I have plenty of hours to spend with you," Alucard said.
"I need to decide Alucard," Integra said as she turned away from him again and wandered over to the table she had sat at two days before.
"If it is my opinion at all Master, I think you need to go back and claim your place as the Hellsing Lord," Alucard said. "You can't let Maxwell take your place."
"Don't you think I know that?" Integra asked as she slumped down on the bench.
"So what are you going to do?" Alucard asked.
"I don't know!" Integra said as she as she stared up at the stars. "I don't know." Alucard sat next to her silently and gazed up at the stars with her. "We really need you at home."
"I know," Integra said as she closed her eyes. "I keep running away from the decision."
"Then stop running," Alucard said.
Integra darted into the lab.
"Where are you going?" Ash asked as Integra ran back into the lab.
"I'm going back!" Integra shouted as she grabbed her pack. "I'm not running away anymore."
"Do you know how?" Ash asked as he and his friends raced out the door after the woman.
"I have to go back where I started," Integra answered as she made it back to Alucard.
"You're going back to Hoenn?" Ash asked.
"Yes," Integra answered as she flicked out a pokeball.
"I'm going with you, I have a Pigeot that lives in this forest, I can follow you guys," Ash said.
"All right, but you'll need to keep up," Integra said as she released her Tropius. She got on and Alucard floated up and sat down behind her. "We'll head on up and wait for you in the clouds. Don't wait too long, I need to get there before dawn, or I'll lose Alucard."
"I'll be there," Ash said as he ran off into the forest.
"Let's go Tropius, to Professor Birch's," Integra said to the giant pokemon. It rose into the air with one stroke of its wings and then they were soaring high above Pallet town.
