Well here we go again, Writers block is once more defeated and I can go on with my fanfics and torturing the mind of poor Seras...

------------------

Laughing Seras and Zuranna having left the night club sat on the nearby dock with their legs dangling over the salty waters as the two were laughing and mindlessly chattering, enjoying each others company. Drawing a long puff from her cigarette, Zuranna exhaled deeply making sure the smoke wasn't near Seras who didn't truly mind her smoking. Yet the young vampire looked at her making Zura eye her as the cigarette rested between her teeth "what is it?" she murmured.

Smiling weakly, Seras looked at the waters as they shimmered in the full moons glow. "it's just... I was wondering.. you're from America... why are you here... is it just for vacation?" she murmured. Zuranna smiling gently gained Seras's gaze as she flicking the cigarette into the waters watched it float in the gentle waves. "I came here... to find someone..." she murmured. Seras blinking saw the sadness deep within Zuranna's eyes, "Zura?" she murmured. Smiling gently, she looked at Seras... "we vampires live for a very long time... and can make very good bonds with those we meet... but at times... bad things happen and you can loss what you've gained." She murmured as she looked at her hands.

Seras blinking, looked at her with worry "did you... lose someone... very close to you?" she murmured. Zuranna sighing drew her eyes slowly shut as the bitter smile sat upon her lips. "his name was Donovan... and well... yes.. we were very close you could say..." she murmured making Seras look at her "so... where did you meet... if I may ask?" she murmured.

Zura smiling drew her eyes halfway open and peered slowly over at Seras and grinning looked out at the waters "we met... when I was dying from a fatal illness..." she murmured making Seras eye her, and smiling some more, Zuranna drawing her eyes even more open chuckled weakly "indeed... your guess was correct... Donovan... was my master... and strangely enough... we... drew closer then just fledgling and master after a few good years of being around each other... we became very good friends... and when he let me drink his blood... we got even closer..." she murmured and sighing rubbed her eyes slowly "but..." started Seras.

Zuranna gave a bitter smile "but... there were vampire slayers back then... many who knew how to hunt us down... to try and protect me... Donovan drew the slayers away from our American lair... yet they still found me and even though I killed many... they succeeded and made me go into a dormant sleep within a wasteland for a good two hundred years before awakening and finding I was all alone... all my previous friends were dead from either age or other slayers..." her smile faded and sighing she eyed her opened hands, "I thought I had lost everything yet... I had learned... that... a man with crosses on his sleeves was in the form of a stone statue with a metal rune covered steak in his heart in a old run down church... this was fifty years ago and the one who had seen this church was suddenly killed by what people claimed... a orb of light or some phantom... but since then I've been everywhere and checked many churches and have yet to find him... I'm... beginning to lose hope." She murmured with a small smile.

Seras blinking just looked at her as the sad story drew on in her mind... master and fledgling falling in love, happiness... and then they were torn from each other... she smiled at Zuranna, it was small but hopeful. "if your master... was as powerful as you guessed... he'd still be out there..." she murmured. Zuranna smiling gently looked at Seras and sighing tenderly ruffled the girl's hair making her laugh weakly. "I know... I just have to keep reminding myself that... so what of you... are you and your master close?" she murmured. Seras blushing bit her bottom lip as she looked at the rippling waters.

"um... well... my master scares me..." Seras mumbled, Zuranna eyeing her smiled "your master... he was the man in red with the unicorn correct... the man has style." She chuckled as she drawing out another cigarette from its confines in her pocket showing it had been previous used in the past for being halfway finished already, placed it between her lips with lighter in hand. "Style... what do you mean?" Seras murmured as Zuranna lighting up drew out a deep puff and chuckling looked at Seras, "I mean... I've seen him in action a long time ago when he was ruled by a past man of the Hellsing bloodline... he knows how to fight and carries himself with grace even if a servant to humans... he can always make it look as if he were the master and the human the servant... you've got a good master who is indeed dark... but in a way we're all dark." She murmured and laughing eyed Seras as she lifted a single eyebrow, "and hell if you don't want your master... I know plenty others who'd love to get into his pants... even I would, but I'm taken so to speak." She chuckled.

Seras going beet red groaned as she buried her face in her hands as the very bad images danced in her skull making Zuranna outright laugh as Seras turned as red as her master's coat. "I hate you..." grumbled Seras making the woman laugh even louder as she smacked Seras on the back, "hey I can make it worse on ya... how about bondage and whips... ooh... what of him flashing ya right when you wake up!" she cackled... Seras yelling with a loud laugh shoved Zuranna as she laughed wickedly, "I hate you... I truly hate you!" Seras laughed as she still had blazing red cheeks yet her red eyes danced. Zura laughing pointed her cigarette at Seras, "if you hate me... why are you still here!" she laughed, Seras grumbling buried her cheeks in the palm of her hand grumbling random nonsense as Zuranna laughing drew a deep puff from the cigarette surprisingly not choking due to her laughter.

"do those sort of ideas turn you on police girl?" Zuranna eyed Seras the young vampire paling to the color of white froze like a deer to headlights with her eyes wide. "Seras... what is... oh... is your master speaking to you?" Zura murmured as her eyes slowly scanned the surroundings, still wondering even though free from Hellsing if he would go into the old hunting habits and kill any and all vampires minus his fledgling. The wicked laughter echoed all around them as both the women's eyes drew over to a nearby metal bench by the docks as there he sat. with head hanging a bit downward his face was covered by the red hat he always wore. With one arm slightly bent and hanging on the back edge of the bench, his other clutched very casually a slightly blood encrusted brown leather canister that made the hair on the back of Seras's neck stand on end as she could smell and feel what was in that canister.

With his left leg loosely crossed over his right, Alucard grinning wickedly began to chuckle deeply sensing Seras's rising fear and realization. "dear, dear police girl... you must have known at some point we would become free from Hellsing's servitude... thus, I am obligated to go back to my old ways as a true and free nosferatu." He chuckled wickedly. Seras clenching her fists tightly looked away from him and at the waters as she slightly gritted her fanged teeth. Zuranna on the other hand looking at him smirked and grunting rose to her feet gaining Seras's worried eyes.

Uncaring of the worry, Zuranna crushing the near finished cigarette under her boot eyed the man as he continued to hang his head concealing his upper face only exposing his wickedly grinning lips. "So... you're finally a free vampire... you no longer seek to rid us from the world are you?" she spoke. He grinned even more "why... do you wish to live a easy life?" he sneered. She grinning merely shrugged "not particularly, but I do have goals and wish to continue living my undead life... so..." Zuranna traded her glance from Alucard to Seras met the young fledgling's eyes, "well Seras... I must leave and continue to seek out my own master, it truly has been a pleasure to hang out with you tonight though-"

"I want to go with you." Zuranna blinking stared at Seras as she had spoken those words upon swift tongue without any hesitation. Zura grinning slightly looked at Seras "you belong here with your master Alucard... as much as I belong with mine." She spoke as her amusement slightly rose even more of her realizing how truly terrified this fledging was of her master. Chuckling, Zuranna drew her gaze to Alucard's concealed eyes "what have you done to this poor lass... it's as if you actually beat her or something." She spoke, he with his signature grin upon his lips chuckled making Seras eye the two, become conscious of the fact they were speaking in thought.

"she deserves it... she has yet to even accept feeding or even her new undead life, she is such a coward." He chuckled wickedly making his shoulders shake. Zuranna eyed him amused by the whole situation. "so tell me dear Alucard, a true no life king, if she is such a coward and shies away from her new life, why have you yet to kill her... do you have a crush on her, does she bring out your cravings, vampire?" she chuckled as Alucard suddenly in a fluid motion withdrew the Jackal and aiming it right for her head, fired.
