Alucard: ...
Me: Anywho, there was a whole reason to Anderson going chibi!
Donovan: really?
Me: (nods) yes, yes there is... but moving on, here you go... enjoy!
-------------------
"You're back early this night, to cold for you?" Kunisaku chuckled as both and his own queen glanced over when Zuranna drew into the catacombs. The American smirking slightly shrugged as Ty, Sorah and the Hellsing stood nearby ending their chatter to listen in. "Nah, where's Donovan?" Zuranna asked as she glanced around, her red eyes scanning the surroundings. Ty hearing smiled and timidly headed over with his wolf ears perked forward. "He went to find you... but where's Seras, was she not with you Lady Zuranna?" asked the wolf servant. Zuranna smiling slightly, itched the back of her neck as her eyes bore a uneasy look. "well, she was but... I don't know, we were watching the boats covered with lights out on the river... then she flipped out and ran off, Alucard followed after... oh yeah, Sir Integra." Her eyes losing the uneasy stare, looked right over to Integra as Zuranna stood tall with concern on her very form. "You've worked with Seras for a few years correct... maybe you can answer why she suddenly became so depressed." The American asked.
Integra merely watched her for a few seconds before answering. "Seras Victoria... is an orphan, and it was during the Christmas holiday when she was the first and only eyewitness to the violent deaths of both her parents in her very home, she even took a very bad gunshot wound to the side that should have killed her but didn't." as Integra slowly relayed the news to Zuranna, the American just stared in horror at Integra. "shit... no wonder she freaked out... something that traumatizing would haunt even us vampires..." hearing a loud metal door scream nearby, all defenses were up as muffled footsteps were heard slowly making their way through the echoing catacombs. "Honey... I'm home..." Zuranna's defense was the first to melt as she feeling him and heard his oddly very disturbed and annoyed voice. The queen didn't care as she laughing turned around to see his golden red eyes meet her own. "About time you got back dear, did you bring a roast home for us to... bake?" losing her childish southern mockery tone, Zuranna glancing down saw a small child clinging tightly to Donovan's left pant leg. "Donovan... you haven't been hanging around any other vampires have you?" Zuranna slowly spoke as she looked back up to her lover.
Donovan gave a weak dry laugh as his smile was very small and pathetic looking. "No... but it's far worse then that... uh... meet Alexander Anderson... everyone." He spoke as he hunching to the side ever so slight, with his callused hand, pushed the child forward from his pant leg. With big frightened eyes, Anderson still cuddling his bundle of clothing, looked weakly at the gathering audience before him who all bore hostile looks. "Alexander... why bring that slayer here!" Yelled Integra with a voice filled with vile hate as her eyes shined with her livid rage. "I agree with Hellsing, that man has killed many wolves and even vampires." Kunisaku growled as his wolf queen who having spoke, with a strong yet elegant gait, went to Kunisaku's left side. With radiant gold eyes blazing, she had in the hitch of her left arm, a wide eyed near brand new infant as in her right hand, the home casually held a machine gun with no sign of it being heavy.
Donovan nodding sighed deeply, a look of wondering why he even brought the kid here reflected in his gaze. "Please... just listen... Now Alex... please tell the nice adults what you told me." The man going from a weary voice to cheerful and childish, his golden red eyes looked down as the mini Anderson looked up at him with uneasy saucer like eyes. Donovan smiled gently to the youth "no need to rush it... they won't bite, I think... go on." Donovan spoke with a soft tone making the mini slayer, swallow uneasily as he looked at those before him with his near terrified golden red eyes. "um... uh... it's M... Max... uh... what's his name... uh..." Zuranna couldn't bite back her grin as she watched the little Anderson try and recall a name, a deadly slayer yes, but not when he was a mere five year old boy. "Maxwell?" Integra spoke, her voice still stiff as she and Walter were clearly not enjoying Anderson near them, be it he's only a child.
Anderson though not hearing the bite in her words, give her a big grin and nodded tossing his short blond hair with the motion. "Yeah! M... Maxwell... he said something.. before... it's all hazy... but... um..." with a slightly flushed face, Anderson with his child eyes, looked at Donovan for help. The man blinking, gave a odd sound as she clearing his throat sighed and nodding looked to the others before him gaining their stares. "Maxwell with his defeat in London will gather all remaining fighters, slayers, whatever you damn call them... that man is gathering them all for one final show at the Vatican's main base in Rome... and something about our little Seras gal... can you tell them a bit Alex?" Donovan spoke in a gentle tone to the little Anderson who swallowing weakly still clung to his clothing for security as he once more looked at those who stood before him, watching. "Seras... has a chip.. inside her... reporting all... information to Maxwell's men... been in her since that black Alucard p... p... prototype." Anderson spat out the last word as the words seemed all new to him, his memories in his mind seemingly like a dream.
They may not like the child standing before them, but the news made all trade uneasy glances. "A chip... how did it get inside of her, and how did Alucard not find out?" Integra asked eyeing the child who with a small sound, coward behind Donovan's leg as the American vampire king watching him, gave a small sigh as he looked back to Integra. "he doesn't know how... but apparently it has something in it that no vampire can find-"
"Lord Donovan... I think... that's not... true..." the group peered to the side as Kunisaku's young daughter came over timidly. With her ears hanging low from uneasiness around these people. The girl with a small motion drew forth her hand and uncurling her little fingers, a chip hung in her palm covered in very old blood. Kunisaku's mate was the first to move. Kneeling gently by her daughter, the woman's gold eyes softened as she smiling gently looked at her own pup's set of worried gold eyes. "you needn't be so worried Riho, where did you find this?" the woman asked. The girl's ears perked slightly as a smile found its way to her small mouth. "Lord Alucard, he gave it to me when we got here..." Riho spoke with her smile growing ever so bit. "Alucard! Tell me Riho, did he say anything?" the wolf queen murmured trying to keep her voice low from the shock she felt inside. The girl wiggling on her feet like a anxious puppy, giggled "yes mama, he said... it was a good luck charm and I should keep it with me at all times... why are you so afraid of him, he seemed really nice." Riho laughed as her ears perked forward all the way.
Integra and Walter staring at the child, slowly looked up and traded glances with each other, red eyes to red eyes. Kunisaku watching his queen smile and ruffle Riho's hair, the king sighed deeply as he rubbed his eyes. "That man is a smart basturd..." grumbled the wolf as Zuranna understanding it all, chuckled gaining Donovan's gaze with a raised eyebrow over his left golden red eyes. "he truly is, Maxwell will be foaming at the mouth if not already when he discovers most of the information that damn chip gained was that of a young wolf pup!" and with that spoken, Zuranna resting her bent left elbow heavily onto Donovan's side, the woman began to outright laugh enjoying the idea. Hearing his small chuckle, Integra's sharp red eyes shot over to Walter who looking back at her with a sideways glance, bore a timid smile on his own lips. "You must admit... it is rather amusing." The former retainer spoke with a light tone to his voice. Integra merely blinking, sighed harshly as she hanging her head rubbed her weary eyes. God damn vampires.

As the wolves and vampires chatted in the catacombs, Maxwell... his right eyebrow twitched as with narrowed eyes, gripped the stapled paper forms tightly in his left hand making them crunch ever so slightly. "Sir?" he retainer nearby having delivered the papers to Maxwell, watched his Director with fatigued but sharp eyes. Maxwell with his gritted teeth bared, clutched the paper even tighter making the edges tear ever so slight. "This.. is not the proper reports... where is the information on that Seras Victoria?" the man's tight voice spoke, the tempting to keep his temper in check sang loudly in his words. The retainer blinking, nodded ever so slight, "Those are the reports... or at least the reports gained from that device that was implanted in her." The retainer didn't even flinch as Maxwell giving a enraged yell, crushed the gathered papers tightly in both his hands. Mangling the paper even more into a mashed paper ball, tossed the crumpled mess onto the ground and the man rising to his feet headed for the door with a enraged gait. "I'm going for some personal time, no one bother me for an hour, good night." The man spoke harshly with his words like spears, Maxwell not even looking at the retainer, threw the door open hard making it crash into the wall.
With a deep growl rumbling from his chest, Maxwell stormed out as the retainer watching swore under his breath that he could physically see the dark storm cloud over the Director's head. Yet... the old man seeing his boss going down the hallway with a look of not returning, the retainer looked slowly to the crumpled heap on the floor. With a slow and weary sigh, he heading over with his feet a bit wobbly due to age, hunched down and curled his callused fingers onto the paper. Rising back up with a few bones cracking, the man tenderly unfolding the paper treating it as if a treasure, the retainer seeing the words in black ink, began to read. The silent stuffy air was soon broke with a small chuckle as the man continued to read. It was clear now, t his was the proper paperwork from the chip, but something had gone astray with it. With a smile on his middle aged face, the retainer sighed deeply. Astray was putting it lightly, there was no doubt this was not Seras for she wouldn't go wishing for toy dolls, stuffed teddy bears, or... squeaky toys? Shaking his head, the retainer sighing, crumpled the paper up once more and giving it a toss onto the floor so to not be questioned later. The man turning on his heels, left softly leaving not a trail of him reading that document, but in his mind, he was greatly amused. Yet one question hung with his amused mind, what was to happen now?
-----------------------
Me: I love pissing off Maxwell, I'll make sure he has a very fun death... just don't know when or where.
Maxwell: I feel so loved.
Donovan: Why, you're clearly not.
Maxwell: ...
