Chapter 5: "Here We Go Again"
"Please…please…"
"I said no!"
Alucard sighed and hung his head, arms lips at his sides. He hurt all over, was tired, hungry, and now thoroughly annoyed with his Master's stubbornness. Opening his mouth once more to argue, he didn't even have time to take a breath before a small shock zapped him. Jumping slightly, he growling in agitation while glaring at Integra.
"Stop it."
"Um…no." A sigh.
"Please…?" The request came out choked, as though the word did not want to leave his throat. Integra smirked slightly, shaking her head. Alucard's eye twitched. He couldn't stand it any more. Grabbing the metal tray, he inwardly cringed.
"Forgive me, Master," he muttered before whacking her over the head. Integra slumped over on the gurney knocked out. Grumbling, Alucard quickly drew her blood. (Walter decided that after four hours of their bickering, he deserved a coffee break…thus he was unable to rescue Integra from the blood drawing. Heh)
Alucard looked over at Integra after she hadn't woken up for three minutes.
"Um…Master…?"
There was no answer. The vampire, now just a smidge worried, poked her gently in the arm.
She rolled over.
"Okay, Master, now would be a very good time to wake up…"
"What in Her Majesty's name is going on?" Alucard whirled at the sound of the voice, his face like that of a deer's caught in the headlights.
"I uh, she, err….she's having a kip. That's all."
Walter sighed, sounding defeated. "Alucard…"
"Yes, yes, I know…she's going to KILL me when she wakes." He held up a unit of blood, grinning evilly. "But I won in the end."
The Retainer rolled his eyes slightly, shaking his head. "It won't matter if you got the blood or not." His voice trailed off as he stared at the vampire. "You didn't drink any did you?"
"No."
"Are you sure?"
"Fairly certain…"
"Swear."
"On what?"
"Just do it."
"Why?"
"Because I want to be sure."
"So now my word's not good enough anymore?"
"When was it ever good?"
"Oh, now that was low."
"I'm terribly sorry but-"
"No you're not. Don't lie."
This continued for close to five minutes and would have gone on for a much longer time had it not been for Integra moaning and waking. Both vampire and human looked over at her as she slowly sat, holding the back of her head.
"Bloody…what happened?"
Alucard blinked. "You were having a kip."
"No she wasn't."
"Don't start this again."
"Oh, now that was with the blood."
Integra stared at them, her patience quickly dropping. "What are you two on about?"
"Alucard drew your blood."
"He's lying."
The Director slid off of the gurney, glaring darkly. "Alright, you two. Enough. Obviously I was" -she felt the knot on the back of her head- "knocked out and my blood was drawn… (Alucard wilted) I don't want to know what you two were arguing about seeing as how I now have a headache (The vampire at this point was inching towards the door). However, due to the fact that SOMEBODY still has work to do, I'll deal with this later."
With that said, she gathered herself together and stalked out the door, and right into the next person.
"Hey, watch it!"
Integra jolted slightly, her eyes widening. "Mind yourself, boy," she snapped before walking off, grumbling something about respect, young bloods, and something not so good about the Vatican. (Walter had used his magical Retainer powers and ended up ahead of Integra).
Alucard looked at the "boy". 'Heh, Master must be older than what I thought if she's calling him boy,' the vampire thought idly.
A man no older than 30 stood in the doorway looking drenched and sour. He wore a short-sleeved white tee and dark jeans. His dark brown hair seemed a bit thin at his crown, yet his green-gray eyes were giving him a younger look as they stared sharply at Alucard.
"………"
The man glared and slunk over to the makeshift bed. "Bloody rain," he swore, getting up onto the bed. Alucard could now easily see his stomach was a bit larger than what it should have been.
"And you are…"
The man blinked at the question and the sound of annoyance in Alucard's voice.
"John."
"Right…" The No Life King's eyes narrowed slightly as he moved over to the human, quickly getting to work. He could feel John follow each and every movement he make and it was starting to get on his already frayed nerves.
"Going to draw your blood," he muttered as he slid the needle into his arm. Sighing, he drew one unit. Placing it on the tray, he glanced back at the arm. The blood welled up where the pinprick was and Alucard quickly put pressure on it so it would not bruise. He contemplated for a few seconds on whether or not he should draw another half unit, but remembering what had happened not but less than an hour ago, he decided against it. After all, Integra could be watching and he wouldn't know about it.
"Alright," he growled softly. "All done."
John got up without a word and walked off, totally ignoring the vampire. (Not that Alucard could really care anymore).
The vampire sighed softly and glanced at the list. Where was he? Oh ya… Looking at it, he glanced at the next name. Caroline Wanes, age 32. Grumbling to himself, he leaned against the wall, awaiting the next victim (err, I mean donator)…
And he did not have to wait for very long! For as soon as 'John' left, a woman dragging a kicking and screaming kid walked in.
"Hello," she said, breathless as she held out the hand that wasn't glued to the child. "I'm Caroline Wanes…"
Alucard slowly took her hand, shaking it. "Hi…" He would have made a better introduction where it not for the child who was screaming its head off and tugging at the hapless woman's arm.
"MOMMY! I want to go get ice cream now!"
"Not now dear. Mommy has to give blood…"
Alucard almost felt a pang of sympathy for her.
……Almost……
The child, not giving up, continued to tug on his mother's sleeve as though that would magically drop ice cream in his lap. Caroline sighed and sat on the gurney (well, as best as she could with the screaming kid now hanging from her shoulder).
"Look Henry, look at what the man is holding…"
Henry (who looked disgusted to have been named that) now locked his gaze at the needle in Alucard's hand. Alucard stared back at the kid. This was NOT going to end well.
"What are you doing?"
"Cleaning her arm…" 3…
"Now what are you doing?"
"Drawing her blood…" 2…
"NOW what are doing?"
"I'm done…" 1 ½…
"Are you suuuuure?"
"Yes…" 1 1/3….
"I don't think you're very good at this…"
"Well, those are your own…thoughts…" Must not kill…
"What's that?"
"Blood…" Alucard was nearing his snapping point and Caroline could see it clearly.
"What's that?"
The vampire snapped. "Something I'm going to shove up your-"
"Alright, I think that's enough questions for the nice man…"
"But-"
Caroline quickly dragged her questioning son out of the room before Alucard killed him (not that it would honestly, really, truly matter…but we're going to keep this NOT rated R).
The rest of the day quite literally dragged on. By the time Walter and Integra came back, Alucard developed a twitch in his right eye, a rather violent fidget, and continuously wrung his hands. The vampire had his back facing the door as he shifted his weight from one foot to the other; eyes locked on the "wash your hands" sign.
"So trivial," he muttered to himself. "Foolish humans thinking that washing hands would keep disease away. I mean come on, look at what happened with the Black Death…" His voice trailed off to a whisper as he started spouting off diseases and viruses.
Integra slowly walked up to the slightly more insane than usual vampire and tapped him on the shoulder. "Alucard?"
The said creature stopped abruptly and whirled around. "MASTER!" Throwing his arms around her shoulders, the vampire clung to the Director, bawling his eyes out. "It's been so horrible! There was this one lady and…and…and she had a KID! A KID! I wanted to wring the brat's neck, but noooo, she wouldn't let me! And then there was this- Master?"
Integra's eyebrow twitched as she tried to control her anger. "Remove your hands from me, vampire," she seethed, hands clenched tightly. Alucard whimpered pitifully but released her with the light of intelligence shining over his head for once. Turning, Integra walked back to the car, Alucard trailing close behind.

Once in the car, Integra sat, glowering at Alucard. The vampire didn't look at her, but was rocking back and forth, whispering something that sounded much like 'I'm going to draw your blood now'. Integra sighed, however when she touched her head and winced (it was still a bit tender) her anger redoubled.
"For hitting me over the head and drawing blood when I said not to…I am sad to say you will be working at the blood drive tomorrow also."
There was a long silence that was broken by a scream.
"NOOOOOOOOOO!"
Integra sat back as she watched the vampire break down. She lit a cigar, a smirk on her face.
Ah, sweet, sweet justice…
