A/n: Alright, I know it sounds weird for Alucard to be walking during the daylight... but if you read the manga version of Hellsing, you will noticed that he can walk in the day light... he just hates the daylight... he's a bit of a night owl...

Chapter Three:

Aura

Integra opened the door and looked at Walter. "Sir Integra... I'm happy to see you home." he stated, taking her coat. Seras walked passed them, heading upstairs for some sleep. "You have a guest in your office." he stated. Integra looked at him and then looked around. "Where is Alucard? He should be here." she thought, heading up to her office. She wondered where the hell he had gone, considering he was here when she left. She opened the door to her office and looked at the guy with short blond hair. "Anderson... what brings you to my organization?" she asked in a cold voice. Anderson looked at her. "You can't welcome me in a nicer matter, lass?" he asked. Integra rolled her eyes and walked over to her desk. " I don't have time for this. If you have something to say then you ne-"

" It's about Angel..."

Integra looked at him. "What do you mean by that?" Anderson looked at her with a smirk. " Angel is here for Alucard rather you like it or not." he told her. Integra raised an eyebrow. "Angel is human... nothing more." Anderson stood up and walked towards the doors. "If you must know, Alucard isn't here. You can't feel it in the air." Integra watched as he walked out the door. "What the hell do you mean by that?" she asked, walking after him.

Anderson walked down the stairs, Integra following close by. "I still don't understand what you mean by-" the front door opened, revealing Alucard and Angel. Integra and Anderson stood there in silence. Alucard looked up and noticed that Integra was glaring at Angel. "Alucard, you mutt! I should ban you from drinking blood for a whole-"

"I asked him to show me around this morning." Angel interrupted. She looked over at Alucard and showed him a slight smile. "Thanks, Mr. Vampire. I'm forever in your debt." she stated. Alucard watched as she went to the door and then watched as Anderson walked passed him. "Just what the hell were you doing here?" Alucard asked, looking at him. " I was merely talking to your boss... just about the investigation that's going on." Anderson stated, walking out the door.

Anderson closed the door and noticed Angel leaning against the door. "Well, I didn't expect you to be here.. Do tell me Iscariot didn't send you as a watcher? I'm telling you now... give them a message for me." she pulled out a Revolver and placed it against his head. " Tell them that they will not keep me away from Alucard. I will awaken him fully, rather they like it or not." she stated. Anderson smirked and replied, "Put that thing away. I was just wondering why Integra hasn't told Alucard about you yet. I didn't come here to place a damper on your game." he told her. Angel watched as he headed towards the gate. "Just some advice, though... Integra won't give up Alucard without a fight." She placed her Revolver back in her jacket and looked up at the sky. She had to think of something... something that would...

Alucard walked over to the window and watched as Angel walked out of the gate. "Well, I must say the way things look is this: you're attracted to her." Alucard looked at his Master, shock upon his face. "A-Attracted to her? Master, do you really think I'm attracted to her!" he asked, trying to cover up everything. Integra walked up the stairs and replied, " it's just a feeling... anyway, we have to leave soon. There were three murders last night and the Queen wants us to look into it." Alucard watched as she went up the stairs. He then returned his gaze to the outside world. He had been attracted to her... but the thing was... there was a reason for it... an unexplained reason... but there was a reason. He looked down, fearing that he may have that human emtion called... dare he say it... Love. Integra closed the door to her office. She wondered what Anderson meant by 'it's about Angel.' The young woman was only human... right? I mean she knew everything there was to Angel and Ryuku... there nothing else... no secrets, no lies or cover ups... the both of them were Human...

Angel closed the door behind her and looked at Ryuku. "You know you had me worried." he stated. She looked down and replied, " sorry... I just met up with Alucard and we were talking... he told me that he has been dreaming..." she stated, walking to her room. Ryuku walked behind her. "Do you know what of?" he asked. She shook her head no as she looked at the glass of blood on her nightstand. " I knew you would be hungary when you came in." he stated. Angel smirked a bit and picked it up. "Thanks..." she whispered, drinking it. "So, what did Alucard say?" he asked. She licked her lips and looked at him. "Nothing... he doesn't remember anything... I'll have to tell him soon... before it's too late. Those murders that happened last night was a warning." she stated. Ryuku placed his hands in his pockets. "No shit it was a warning. He knows what you're trying to do and he'll stop at nothing to get you." Ryuku stated. Angel placed the glass on the nightstand and went to the bathroom. " I'll have to do something quick..." she thought out loud.

That night, Alucard went downstairs, unable to sleep again. After looking over the crime scene, he went on home, telling Integra that he would understand better once he got some sleep. But... unable to sleep, he could not figure out who or what was responsible for the murders. The same dream had occured and he didn't know why. Not to mention... Angel was on his mind... but she was human... right? "Why am I so attracted to her?" he thought, grabbing his coat from the downstair's closet. He had thrown it in there once he got home, just wanting to get in his coffin and sleep. He then went to the front door and thought, " Maybe it's the fact that she's a Human... they're all intriguing." He walked out the door and closed it behind him... he just needed a minute alone...

Angel sat there in the swing... realizing what she had to do. "It's funny how we keep running into each other." she heard. She looked up and noticed Alucard in front of her. "Same here." she stated, standing up. She fixed her jacket and walked to the gate. "I better be on my way. I snuck out without Ryuku knowing." she stated. Alucard, without really knowing, grabbed her arm, pulled her close and kissed her. Angel closed her eyes, trying to find the strenght to fight against the one she had loved so long ago. Alucard placed his hand in the small of her back and broke away from her...

"What is wrong with me?" he thought, letting her go. Angel blushed and turned away. " I'll see you around." she whispered, walking out of the gate. Alucard stood there, dumbfounded to the extreme. He tried to figure out what had come over him that caused him to kiss her. But... the taste of her was driving him insane.

Angel stood there in front of the entrance to the building. She looked up and wondered why she had pushed herself away from him. She looked down, realizing the truth. "My fear that I have lost him has surfaced." she thought, turning around. She knew this was her only shot.

Alucard closed his crimson eyes, laying there on the grass. He was in the park that was only about a mile from home. He really didn't understand what had come over him when he... well, he didn't feel like thinking about it. He sighed loudly and heard singing.

Hear the chorus of pain

Taking you back to proper ways

It's so easy to find

If you could remind me

Now you are lost in your way

Deep in an awesome story

So I will find you again

Kiss you for lonesome folly...

Suddenly, Alucard felt something crawling on him. He looked up and saw Angel, her amber eye gazing at him in want. Her long black hair was covering her right eye again, which made him curious to why her hair was always like that. "I thought you went home." he whispered. She gave him a sly smirk and replied, "It's hard to go home when you have something on your mind." Alucard placed his hand on her cheek, still puzzled why he was so attracted to her. " Is something the matter, Alucard?" she asked in a soft... innocent voice. He looked at her with his crimson eyes. He didn't know her all, but it seemed to him that she knew exactly what she was getting into. He brushed his thumb against her cheek and asked, "Why is it that every time I see you, I feel like I know you?" Angel looked at him with soft eyes. She leaned forward and kissed him softly. "I guess I'll have to show you." Alucard smirked and whispered, " do you know what you're getting yourself into?" Angel looked at him, just about to answer when suddenly the air shifted. Angel looked up and Alucard grabbed her by the waist, disappearing as the large gray sphere appeared.

Alucard appeared again, holding Angel close to him. Angel looked at the figure before them and glared. " You should have know it was only a matter of time before I found you, Angel." the vampire whispered. She walked out of Alucard's protective arms and snapped, "Well, you're too late, Shadow... I will never belong to you!" Alucard stood there in the background, so confused about the situation at hand. The only thing that he knew was a fact was that this Shadow was a very powerful Vampire. Shadow looked at Angel and replied, "Too late? It looks like he doesn't even remember you." Alucard grabbed Angel by the waist and disappeared. Shadow stood there, a smirk upon his face. There was nothing that was going to keep him away from her. He would have to kill Alucard before she would restore his memory. It was a suicide mission, but considering what he had done to the other three 1/2 Vampires, it would be easy.
