AN: Done in response to Phantom R's challenge of AXS. Hope you like it. I own nothing.

It was a cloudy Tuesday evening, and one Seras Victoria was sitting in her four-poster coffin, reading a book about chickens. Or was it chicken soup? She paused and looked at the cover.

"Raising Chicken Stock"

"Oh."

She shrugged and went back to reading it.

There was a horrifying scream. Seras snapped to attention.

"Police Girl! Come here, now!"

So she jumped up and whacked her head – "Ow!" – Before rushing out the door.

She ran up five flights of stairs, and then down two long hallways.

Then, she ran down one small flight of stairs.

Whereupon, she crashed through a closed door and landed in a pile of red hair and uniform on the ground.

"Oowwww..." she moaned in pain.

There was a growling coming from under her. Something was moving!

"Eeyow!" she said and sat bolt upright, exposing a very small, and very angry-looking, version of Alucard.

"Master?" she said nervously.

"What?" he said in a clipped tone of voice.

"Um...what happened to you?"

"I was just walking through, and all of a sudden I shrank!"

"Shrunk." Sir Integral said, as she walked through the door with her nose in a book.

"You shrunk." She gestured to the pages of the antique-looking spell book in her hands. "I'm working on a reduction spell. Apparently it works very well."

Nodding to the mini-Alucard, she sniffed and continued.

"Perhaps a little too well. I've yet to find the counter-curse. Well, good-bye to you all for now."

She walked out.

Seras stared.

Alucard stared.

Then Alucard opened his mouth.

"D'you mean to say I'm stuck like this??" he roared.

(Well, when one is no more than eighteen inches tall, one does not roar.

One squeaks.)

"I guess..." mused Seras. "That makes sense, though..."

"I don't care how much it makes sense!" protested Alucard. "I will not remain this small for long; she has to come up with the counter-curse soon!"

Seras looked at him.

"She looks tired, she'll probably take a nap, then she needs to eat, then she'll have to find the spell, then practice it..." she tapped her chin and thought about it.

"So what you're saying..." moaned Alucard.

"...Is that this might take a while." Seras finished.

Alucard curled his lip. However, since he was now the size of a two-year old, it was irresistibly cute. Seras picked him up and squeezed him to her chest. Alucard found himself in a tight hug, his face in her chest, his nose between her...well...

'I could get used to this.' He thought smugly.

Part two coming soon!
