A/N: Alrighty!! I finally got the newest chapter for The Hellsing Documents up. Yay! takes a bow

I have no clue when I will get up the next one, however. But I have it all planned out in my head, so it shouldn't be too long. R&R please!

Chapter IV

"But, Sir!" Seras protested many days later. "I'm a soldier, not a babysitter! I should be out there with Master Alucard!"

"Seras, I understand, but I need you here with Elizabeth while I am at this meeting at the Vatican." Integra replied simply, not looking up from her computer. "You're master Alucard has agreed with this."

Seras snapped to attention. There was no getting around it if both of them wanted her here.

"Where is the little lady, then?" She asked.

"I believe Walter has set her up with more of her studies in the Library."

Seras bowed and left. It was going to be an interesting week.

"Hello there!" Seras called to the young girl sitting at a table in the far corner. The girl jumped lightly and looked up to find the source of the disturbance.

"Hello." Elizabeth called back. Seras couldn't help but stare at the girl while she walked forward to sit across from her. The girl has such soft, coffee-cream skin, with wide green eyes and dark brown hair. Something about her made her familiar to Seras, though she couldn't put her finger on it.

"Integra sent you to look after me while she is away, didn't she." Elizabeth asked.

"No! Not at all!" Seras started. But Elizabeth's unwavering stare crumbled her pitiful lie. "Well, yes, she did…kind of…..yeah."

Elizabeth nodded, letting out a sigh.

"It hasn't been a month yet and already she feels I'm not cut out for this line of work." She said, turning back to the research she was assigned.

"It's not that." Seras tried to explain. "She just feels you're too young to stay by yourself here. Hellsing does come under attack sometimes you know. I think she just wants you to keep safe until you're older and can handle things on your own."

"Alright." Elizabeth replied, looking rather defeated. She worked quietly for a while, then Seras thought of an idea.

"Would you like to do some weapons training this week?" She asked, and Elizabeth's face lit up.

"I'd love that!" Elizabeth exclaimed, her face lighting up.

They left the library and headed down to the Firearms Range. It was empty, all the other soldiers having been sent on other missions. Seras picked up a small caliber shotgun, loading it before she handed it to her charge.

"Have you ever used on of these before?" She asked. Elizabeth nodded.

"My father taught me a little before he died. I was too young to use one this large though." she replied, looking down at the weapon.

Seras nodded, and helped her set up a target to practice. Elizabeth took aim, and fired. The target exploded in a cloud of paper, and when it cleared, there was a large hole in the center of the target dummy.

Seras blinked, and looked down at Elizabeth, who smiled sheepishly. It was indeed going to be a very interesting week.
