Chap. 19: Vampires, Familiars, and… Chips?

When Vladimir got back to Hogwarts that night, he was still grinning.

"What's up with you, mate?" Ron said as he walked out of the Great Hall, Hermione close behind.

"How did it go?" she said, a hopeful tone in her voice.

"Oh, it went horribly. Yup, completely hate them, their all gits." Vladimir said, still grinning as they walked up the stairs.

Hermione frowned, but it was Ron who asked, "So… why do you look so happy?"

"Oh, you'll probably find out tomorrow. All I can say for now is that my father and I had a bit of fun." Vladimir said, and gave a little snicker, along with Crimson.

Ron shuddered, having met Alucard and was able to imagine only too well what kind of fun the two could have done. He just felt sorry for who their victim was. Hermione on the other hand could only guess based on what she'd seen on Vladimir. It still made her feel sorry for the poor victim.

"I just hope there was no lasting damage." She said, and Vladimir gave her an innocent look before they reached the dorm.

When the three entered the Great Hall the next morning, there was quite a commotion going on, mainly with the Slytherin's and Gryffindor's- Slytherin's yelling in anger.

"What do you reckon that's all about?" Ron said, sitting.

"Let's see, shall we? Hey, Lee, mind if I see that new paper you have there?"

Lee grinned, "Shore thing mate. You'll want to read this!"

Taking the new paper, Ron and Hermione surrounded him, reading over his shoulder, eyes growing wider and wider with each word, and trying very hard to resist laughing so they could finish the article.

:Snakes in Malfoy Manner!:

At around 7:00 pm last night, the Malfoy Manner had a sudden and unexplainable attacked by snakes. Indeed, it almost seemed like there was a never ending flow of them, as they covered the floor, and crawled up walls.

All seemed to have been of one breed though, as they all were black with red bellies, and had six eyes. These snakes are very similar to the snake one Vladimir Hellsing has, who is currently attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

It has been found that that snake is actually a familiar of a vampire. Vladimir says that he acquired the snake because his family beat the vampire it was a familiar to.

So this brings us to wonder if anyone had actually been hurt. Do vampires familiar still drink blood?

We asked the Malfoy's currently in the manner at the time and they said that they had been bitten, and felt slightly weak for quite a few hours afterwards, but when we asked to see the bite marks, they said that they had already healed.

Is he lying about being bitten, or is there truth to vampire bites healing?

Also, were the snakes that were so similar to the snake Vladimir Hellsing has because they were from the same vampire? Does this mean that that vampire thought to have been killed by the Hellsing organization was not killed after all?

In any case, we can't deny the fact that the familiars didn't intend to actually harm the Malfoy's, as they are still living, and now quite healthy and back to normal.

Finally finished reading, the two burst out in laughter.

"Okay, Vlad, was this you're doing mate?" Ron whispered.

"Of course. Thought it would be funny to attack the Malfoy's with their traditional house's mascot." Vladimir said, grinning.

"Okay, I take back what I thought last night." Ron said.

"What?"

"I don't feel sorry for them. That was bloody brilliant mate!"

"You should be more careful though, Vladimir…" Hermione said, but she too was still grinning.

"It's okay. For one, they were lying about having been bitten. Father didn't want to drink blood from them, saying it was probably too laden with inbreed blood. As for the healing factor about a vampire's bite, it depends on the vampire."

Just then, Malfoy walked up, his face dark and stormy. Vladimir blinked innocently. "Hello Malfoy. Have you read the paper? Tragic isn't it? At least no one was harmed."

"Hellsing, I demand to know why you did this." Malfoy said, gaining the attention of a few people around them.

"Do what? Oh, what's in the paper? How could I have done that?" Vladimir asked, and it really was the truth. He'd had nothing to do with the attack- well, aside from suggesting it.

"You have that snake, and I know-"

The look in Vladimir's eyes stopped him. While his face was anything but warning, his eyes had a light in them that only Malfoy was privy to, and the boy realized that perhaps it wasn't in his best interest to spout off that he knew that Vladimir's father was a vampire. It had been a small prank before, but still terrifying. Malfoy knew that most could be done if pushed.

"Just watch yourself, Hellsing." He said before leaving.

Vladimir couldn't help himself as he called out, "You really don't want to challenge all of Hellsing, Malfoy. My mother could have your father quivering at her feet if she wanted to. If you wish to threaten me, use my name, not Hellsing. It's really in your best interest."

A few people snickered at this, but they didn't seem to realize that there was a fire of anger in Vladimir's eyes. One does not simply threaten the Hellsing Family.

Later that afternoon found the three alone in the common room, everyone else out enjoying the sunny day- the cold snap had finally started to ease up and this was one of the rare moments where it was actually warm.

"What did you mean?" Hermione asked, "About the whole 'depending on the type of vampire' thing? Is there more than one?"

Vladimir, having been engrossed in a new book, looked up in confusion for a second before he remembered. "Oh, well, there are the Nosferatu, which is what my father and sister are. And then there are… artificial ones lately. They're made with these little chips-"

"They're made with a food?"

"No, micro-motherboard chips," Vladimir said, and decided to explain this later to Ron, though Hermione understood. "My family is still researching it, trying to figure out how its working and who's making them, so, as far as I'm aware, we don't know yet. But anyway, back to the main subject. Nosferatu can heal, if they want. The artificial vampires can't, and it's why their victims always end up bleeding out and dying, unless someone saves them."

Hermione sat back, astounded, and horrified. Ron was still confused about the chips thing, but he too understood everything else, and looked horrified too.

"Don't worry, as far as we've seen, they still have mostly human bodies, though their just more sensitive to certain things. But they still age. We believe that they think the more victims they take, the closer they get to immortality, but we're still looking into that…"

"Vladimir, are you sure you should be telling us this?" Hermione said suddenly.

Vladimir blinked. "Well, I don't see why not. I trust you guys, and know you wouldn't go gossiping about it. And really, it's not like my family is trying to keep it a big secret. We only keep it a secret because there are people out there that would want something like that. I know you two wouldn't, so it's fine."

Hermione still looked troubled but that was due to the news she'd just heard. She gained new respect for Vladimir and his family, but mostly Vladimir.

AN: Sooooo…. How you guys doin'…? Um…. Please don't hurt me….?

I'm really sorry guys, really. I've given up on trying to constantly update. I swear that I will continue this. It might take me a whole two years to update, but I won't give up on it. I really do have a plot I'm trying to work my way up to, but it's trying to get there is the hard thing. And anyone that's a writer on this sight too should know that it's hard, especially if you're one that gets a billion fic ideas and have to write them down and they find that you have yet another fic to attend to.

But, hey, at least I update a lot of chaps. this time... hehe... o.o

Huh….

Anyway, I just needed to get that out of the way.

And also… well, this is kind of new for me to do this, but I don't trust myself enough with Doctor Who, so I'm asking Doctor Who fans this. Please, can you do anything with this? I came up with the idea a while back, but again, I just can't trust that I'd get the character's right. But I think the idea itself is brilliant, if someone can just come up with a plot to go with it.

Okay, here it is:

In the wizarding world, many things are kept secret, or blurred to the public. One such secret is kept from none other than Harry Potter. Now, many secrets are kept from him, but none greater than this. In fact it is a secret so secret that even Dumbledore doesn't know. Only one woman knows, one woman that has long since been cast into darkness.

When Lily and James had their baby at St. Mongos, without their knowledge of it, it had died of a heart defect. But before anyone could have realized this, the woman replaced the baby with another, one that would live on and keep her race from dying completely.

Haven't you ever wondered what kept Harry alive that fateful night? It's been theorized that it was his mother's love that protected him…. But what if it was something else. Something that no one, wizard or human, could do?

Regeneration is a powerful thing, and this is what happened.

When Harry, a baby Time Lord, regenerated, he'd used memories, his mother's eyes, so green and caring, and his father's looks, strong and determined… He adapted these features and now looks like the real son of James and Lily Potter.

And Voldamort? How was he hurt so badly that night? The blast of the regeneration cells caused some sort of reaction, and he was turned into nothing but a mere phantom.

Harry has his magic out of being around magic people, and consuming the magic during his regeneration, he gained the ability to control it too.

But no one knew of this. Not Harry, not Lily or James, not the Wizengomot, and not Dumbledore.

So what would happen when the Doctor, with his two companions, Amy and Rory, suddenly popped into his life?

Okay, so I know there are some things that would need working on, like, how is it no one noticed he has two hearts? I was maybe thinking that his Time Lord DNA was locked away in something, perhaps that night. Of course, that thing would still be there, so he's not technically a Time Lord at the time the Doctor appears.

Which brings us to the next hole. How is it they come together? I think that's simply explained away because of Harry's tendency to get into those kinds of situations, and the Doctor's tendency to draw in people like Harry.

Harry would of course show a remarkable intelligence for his age, more than just what he's thought in school, but things with science and such.

Anyway, like I said, I'd like it if someone could take this idea and use it if they think they can do it. No one needs to claim it as their own, anyone can use it.

But, in the chance that there is a story like this that I've not found for the HP/DW fanfics, please link me to it if you think it's good.

Again, sorry that I'll be taking so long to update, but I've decided that I have a life I need to live(I'll be going to college in just a few days! Woot!). I can't just sit and force it all or else it'll look like crap.

Well that's all…till next time, whenever that is, bye!
