"You're going to go get Police Girl?" Sir Integra asks Master Alucard the next night.
"Yes. Why?"
"I was just wondering. No need to get angry."
"Sir Integra?" Walter says from the doorway.
"Yes, Walter?"
"You have a message."
"Yes? What is it?"
Walter hands Sir Integra a piece of paper and walks off.
After a few moments, Master Alucard asks, "What does it say?"
"…It… It says that she isn't coming back," she says.
"Who?" Master Alucard asks, although he already knows the answer.
"Police Girl. Seras Victoria."
"What do you mean, 'she won't be coming back'?"
"Here. Read it yourself." Sir Integra hands him the piece of paper and starts to pace.
"We regret to inform you that Lady 'Seras Victoria', also known as 'Police Girl', by her own free will, has chosen to remain on the Caidoz Premises, and that she has chosen, of her own free will, to switch employment from the 'Hellsing' company to 'Caidoz VH'.
Sincerely,
Yuki Caidoz."
Master Alucard stares at the paper then reads and rereads it. "The little…" he says, before fading into the night.
Seras's POV
"Are you sure you can do this?" Anilucard asks doubtfully.
"Well, we're about to find out."
"What?" she asks, rather dubiously.
"Sir Integra's bound to have gotten the message by now."
"And she'll come and get you?"
"No, not Sir Integra. Master Alucard."
"Master who?" she asks, confused.
"Alucard," says said Master behind you.
"Master Alucard!" you shout joyously, turning around.
Master Alucard glares at you, then says, "Don't 'Master' me. Why did you run away!"
"What?" Anilucard says, obviously surprised, "You ran away!"
"Yes, she did. And I'm still waiting to know why."
Two pairs of bloodred eyes focus in on yours, the same question in them: 'Why?'
"I… I don't know…" you manage to stutter.
"Well, then, find out!" Master Alucard yells.
"I said I don't know! Why don't you just go look to your almighty vampiric powers! I don't know why, so stop asking me!" At this, you run from the room.
"Not again…" Master Alucard says, exasperated.
"What?" Anilucard says, confused.
"This is the second time she's run away in a fit of rage. It's getting quite annoying, actually." Master Alucard prepares to follow you, but Anilucard's hand on his arm stops him.
"I want to help," she says, her voice firm, "and I will."
Anilucard and Master Alucard follow you, Ani on foot, and Master by mythical means.
"Seras. Seras!" Ani shouts, hot on your heels. Something inside you said that you could trust her, that listening to her would be for the best, but still, you power on.
When Master Alucard appears in front of you and grabs your hand, you try with all your might to break free. "Stop struggling," he says. When you realize that struggling won't help, your hand goes limp.
"Alucard," Ani says, materializing beside you.
"Yes?" he says, taking his attention off of you for a moment. Mistake. You break free and begin to run again.
You run until you hit an invisible wall. "A barrier," Master Alucard says behind you.
You didn't care what it was. It was in your way, but not for long. A flare of flame devoured the slip of paper, effectively removing the wall. You run and run, not caring that no one was following you. Your mind didn't realize it, but your feet took you on a course straight toward the area with the highest freak population. To where Hellsing was about to strike. Where Sir Integra already was.
When Sir Integra felt a rush of wind surge by, she looked up. And saw you heading full speed toward the ghouls.
You ran straight into the horde, claws tearing at you. You sent them away with fresh bursts of flame. It felt so good to watch them burn, to hear their suffering.
When Master Alucard and Ani materialized beside Sir Integra, she looked at Master Alucard in disbelief. "What in the world is going on!" she shouts, her infamously dangerous temper rising.
"I don't know," Master Alucard says, "As soon as I figure it out, I'll tell you."
The left half of your body was covered in blood; the right side, ashes.
You seemingly disappear into a sea of flames, and appear in a coil of black smoke beside Master Alucard. "What is your bidding, my maaaasssssssterrrrr?" you hiss, steam crawling from your mouth and blood dripping from your matted hair. (A/n: 0.o)
