More Walter goodness ^_^ and thanks for the reviews to those who took the
time to do so ^_^ It just makes me feel special. Or something like that.
And if you're a genius like me and don't ever go look at the extras on dvds, I do highly recommend that you go look at the Music Video Preview on disc 1 of the dub. It's just bloody awesome. . . . .Though Father Anderson's laugh kinda frightened me. . . . .as does his Japanese voice. *shivers*

Before sunset when the next meeting would take place, I waited for Sir Harker and his wife to leave their home for the day to meet with the Queen of Holland, hoping to secure better funding and whatever else we need for the Organization in this country. As is my daily routine when a vampire is present, I brought a blood packet to Argetni's room just before she rises for the night, which with one as strong as her, is about noon each day she spends the entire night before awake.
But instead of leaving so not to be seen as any good servant must do, I took a seat in one of the many cushioned chairs Sir Harker insisted on placing in every room, patiently waiting for her to stir.
It was quite amusing to see the reaction on Argetni's face as she noticed me sitting across from her coffin-bed, as first shock, then fear, then finally rage played across her face. The verbal lashing was quickly ended as soon as she noticed the packet of blood on the table, which she opened and devoured, apologizing for her rude and inappropriate behavior.
I had no idea at that time if she took my suggestion of dressing more business-like for tonight's meeting, but I do know that she braved the afternoon sunlight, covered as a Muslim woman might be so as to not be burned, and bought something from a clothing store. I prayed that she decided to be proper. . . .
Upon nightfall, Argetni arrived in Sir Harker's office, dressed in a woman's black dress suit with the skirt cut to her knees and her collar buttoned as to not show cleavage. I was pleased to see the Vampiress deciding not to offend her keepers, though I could not say this in front of the group.
Mistress Lillith looked down at this new attempt at humanity, as she described Argetni's dress and demeanor, and immediately closed her mind to the opinions of Argetni, even though the Vampiress had the most rational ideas to find Devries of the group.
Sir Harker still insists that we try to utilize the mortal police units around the world to find Miss Devries, which would be a good idea if not for associations like the Vatican Section Thirteen, for example. News of the disappearance of an heir to Hellsing would just prove their point of our incompetence, and naturally, they would ask for our Organization to be dissolved.
Argetni argued the same point that I wished to mention, and though Mistress Lillith was not speaking to the group, which must have meant that she agreed as well, Sir Harker refused to see the folly in having mortal lawmen involved with his daughter's case. But, instead of arguing the entire night about such a trivial matter, Harker finally asked Argetni what she would do to find the girl.
Smiling, but not flashing her fangs as she usually would, Argetni leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes, loving the opportunity to be the leader of this small group yet again.
The plan she created to find Devries is quite simple. Lieutenant Seras Victoria and myself would travel wherever her and Alucard directed us, as they would be watching her bank accounts and credit card activity, as a child raised as an heiress will soon find that she cannot deal without what she considers the norms of living.
Both Argetni and Harker stared at me awaiting my reply, and as always I stated that it is my duty to serve the family above all else and if finding Devries was how I should serve the family, then so be it.
Mistress Lillith snorted with disapproval at this idea, reminding us all that the Vatican will not stand to allow even one of our vampires the freedom to leave the countries they are confined to serve. She also does not wish for me to travel for Devries alone, as she kept stating that if my health failed me, who would help me back to Holland for treatment?
My health will not fail me, but Harker agreed that it would not be in the best interest of the Organization to send me trekking across the world alone, but he could not offer a suggestion of who would be better qualified to go than me, nor could he think of a replacement for Seras.
I don't think that Argetni meant for the words to slip from her tongue, but as she lit a cigar she mumbled bitterly that perhaps Anika could go on the adventure.
God help me, as I will be babysitting the youngest Hellsing member as we travel across Asia and most likely to America.
I cannot believe that Mistress Lillith liked the idea of her daughter searching for Sir Integral's daughter, but she feels confident that I will train Miss Anika better than anyone else for service to the Hellsing Organization if our search is in vain, and traveling the world would be quite useful for a young socialite.
I believe that Mistress Lillith's decision shocked Argetni as well, but the Vampiress just chuckled at the offer, deciding it was good enough for her as well, then standing and dismissing herself from the meeting, asking for a daily email correspondence from me to keep her updated with the actual search, while she would keep me posted of Devries' activity and sightings by local peoples of a tall blond haired tanned girl with a British accent.
Leaving the office, Argenti allowed Sir Harker and his wife to speak freely to me, and we determined that the search would begin in two days time, with me escorting Miss Anika to Moscow so we can pick up a trail to follow. Mistress Lillith immediately phoned Anika to tell her the news, and exuberantly, the girl agreed to meet me in Amsterdam tomorrow so we can prepare for the journey.
I do pray that all goes well and we can find Miss Devries quickly, for though I love the Hellsing daughters as my grandchildren, I do not wish to spend months in close quarters with either of the girls, as both are the worst traits of their parents combined.
