CH2

A few days later, everyone managed to settle in.

Late the first night Integra had gone to the kitchen to make herself a sandwich instead of bugging Walter or Jeeves who had decided that helping out walter would pass the time. She had only to open the fridge to find a sleepy Yuki munching on a popsicle. she quickly slammed shut the door, getting shouts out of the ice jin. that woke up Honou who was sleeping in the stove. the burner flared up and out he came, rubbing his eyes and wondering what the hell was going on. Integra just stared at him before her gun was out and aimed at him. It took Alucard, Ceras and Walter to calm her down and Mosquiton to explain about his familiars, both of which has when back to bed in their respective places and ignored the rest of the house hold.

After that,things started to become quiet. Everyone had settled into a comfortable routine. Wolf Lady had decided to help Ceras teach the troop for lack of anything better to do. This... spelt trouble for Pip. On the first day, the austrailian hit on Ookami, triggering her curse. In no time she was in her wolf form and kicking his ass all around the training grounds. Ceras watched the entire scence, laughing before finally stepping in.

Mean while the two Alucards avoided each other as much as possible. Neither one really wanted to see eachother let alone talk to each other. Their last meeting.. had left some 'bad blood' between them. So currently Alucard was in the dungons, waiting for an assignment to alieviate him from his bordem. Mosquiton hung around Inahao, following her everywhere for the most part.

A good week passed like this. Quiet. Unnerving some members of the group, like say, Integra who could never remember everything being this quiet.

----

Integra grumbled as she lit another one of her cigars. She was taking a break from the constant pile of papers which for the first time in her memory,was actually getting smaller, not bigger. She let out a puff of smoke just when a certain No Life King literally popped his head thru her ceiling, three feet from where she was sitting.

" Alucard. Do you always have to phase in like that." she stated as she glared at him. Even after years of seeing him do that, it still unnerved her slightly. Not as much as it used to, but still a little bit.

"But of course My Master. " Alucard said with a sadistic grin on his face. "What better way to keep you on your toes." he added as he phased fully into the room, appearing to be standing on the ceiling for a moment before switching to the floor gracefully.

Integra grunted slightly as she stubbed out her cigar in her ash tray. "At least refrain from doing that around our guests. " she muttered as she rubbed her eyes.

Alucard snorted slightly. "Your guest. That... other doesnt even deserve the title Vampire." he mumbled out.

Integra sighed slightly as she went back to her paper work. "Alucard, deal with it, he's here so just make the best of it. Thats an Order." she stated as she picked up a report and started to read it.

Alucard shrugged and muttered "Yes, My master." before disappearing again. he was off to the dungeons again to search for some pests to impale. One thing Integra never needed was a cat. Instead she had an insane vampire that did the job for her.

----

The rest of the day was peaceful, if you ignore the fact that Pip was constantly being chased around, Honou and Yuki thought it was hilarious to give soliders 'hot feet' and 'cold feet', Inahao was trying to convince various people to invest in things or to buy something or to get in on one of her various schemes for money while Mo-chan followed her around like a puppy dog. Other than that, the only two that had a 'normal' day was Walter and Jeeves who were doing their duties.

That night however was anything but ordinary.

----

Ceras and Ookami were sitting in one of the various ground floor rooms, beside a lit fire place talking when they heard the doorbell ring. they blinked and looked at each other and went to investigate. This was especially odd since the doorbell hardly ever rang. most people were stopped at the gate and checked by the guards before being let in.

As they reached the door, Walter was just opening it. In the doorway stood a tall man with a wide brim hat that covered his moonlight pale face, hiding his eyes. The hat also had an odd gem or something on the side. He had on a long cloak with odd shoulders that looked like they came to a point, looking reminicant of a soliders shoulder things only gothic and not with fringies. Next they noticed his skin tight clothing, it looked like it could possibly be armor, but neither Ceras or Ookami could tell. Then they say his sword. As to how they didnt notice it until now they had no clue, it was huge and has what looked like a skull it and they handle made out of bone. Their eyes wandered back to his face and the long mass of rich dark brown hair that framed it, and of course the gem around his neck that looked unique. Ookami knew strait off this guy had money... and she knew that as soon as Inahao found out, the guy wouldnt get any rest. All and all though the new arrival was handsome. Perfectly scuplted body.. It was enough to make bother Ceras and Ookami drool.

Walter blinked slightly as he stared at the young man. He couldnt help but wonder how on earth did he get past the gates. He glanced behind the man and saw a black horse at the foot of the stairs. He was taken aback a bit. The horse was mostly cypernetics with horns and such. Where on earth did this guy come from? He then looked back at the man and asked. "Who are you, and what brings you to Hellsing Manor Sir?"

The young man studdied the butler before him a moment before nodding slightly. "I am D and I've come looking for Dracula." he stated as he glanced around. he spotted the drooling girls and arched an eyebrow slightly. Not what he needed.

Walter frowned slightly. "What is your buisness with Master Alucard?" he asked suspiciously. Not many people realized that Alucard was the actual Dracula... even though it was really obivious.

"Is that what he's calling himself now." D stated as he glanced back at the butler. "I merely need to speak to him, nothing more. " he stated.

Before Walter could say anything more, a voice spoke up from D's left hand. "Come on old man, let us in. I know D here would love to see his Fath-" the voice said before D clenched his left hand into a fist to shut the parasite up.

Walter paled slight and took a step back. "What was that." he stated. he had never encoutered anything like that before. It sounded like something was talking from the man's left hand.

D sighed. "It. was nothing. I wish to talk to Alucard. " he stated again as he stood there, he head down, the hat of his hidding his face. The light caught his gems, giving them and odd shine in the dim light.

Again, before Walter could say anymore. The one in question walked thru the wall behind Ceras and Ookami. "Police girl, what is so urgent to call me." he stated, sounding slightly annoyed. She had inturrupted his plans to annoy that useless Mosquiton.

Ceras jumped slightly and quickly turned around and looked at Alucard nerviously before jerking her thumb over her shoulder. "Um.. someone here to see you Master.."

Alucard's gaze followed where she was pointing. He blink and froze as he saw who was standing there. After a few moments he grinned his trademark grin and walked past Ceras and Ookami and stopped just beside Walter. "The wayward son finally comes back."

D stiffened slightly, his face still covered in shadows. "If the Father wasnt soo... negligent, the wayward son wouldnt have to be wayward." he stated.

Alucard shrugged. "Heh. Oh well." he grinned slightly. "The fact of the matter is your are here Junior. Now what do you want."

D's head moved up a bit to reveal dark blue eyes which were currently glaring at his father. He hated the name junior. Hell he hated his name. It gave too much away, hence why he shortened it to just 'D'.

Alucard's smirk just grew wider as his son glared at him ."Ah, hit a nerve didnt I." he stated before laughing. "Fine then, D. Though why someone would deny a perfectly good name like yours is beyond me."

D crossed his arms and continued to glare at Alucard. "You named me after yourself." he simply stated as he stood there.

Soft giggles from behind them reached there ears. Ceras and Ookami were both trying to hide there giggles at the father and son.

Alucard rolled his eyes. "Police girl. You and that wolf go play somewhere else. " he stated.

Ceras looked shyly and nodded. "Y-yes master." she muttered before grabbing Ookami and running off.

D snorted slightly. "Another Fledgling? Didnt you learn from the Hellsing incident." he stated as he watched Ceras and Ookami leave.

Alucard shrugged. "It was a spur of the moment thing. She chose it." he stated before noticing Walter again, who was still standing there, watching them. "Ah, the ever prestent God of Death." he snickered slightly. "We will be heading up to Sir Integra's office in a bit, please make sure that annoying Inahao and that useless Mosquiton arent there." he stated.

Walter nodded before heading off to do as Alucard requested. After he left Alucard turned to his son and waved him in. "Dont be shy junior, come on in." he teased "Someone will take care of that horse of yours." he stated as his son took a few steps inside the manor. Alucard nodded and started to head for the nearest stairs. He smirked a bit. Integra was going to have a heart attack.He was actually walking up to her office and going to knock on the door. First time for everything.
