DAMN! Two chapters in one night! I need to sleep more. Anyway, here is chapter 7. Sorry that 6 was so short.
Chapter 7 : Nightmare
Alucard had phased into Seras's room to see Aqua sleeping on the spare bed and Seras sitting next to her on her favorite chair. Alucard grinned, for he did not need to have the Master-Fledgling bond to know what Seras was thinking.
"She truly is quite a prize, isn't she," Alucard remarked. Seras sighed. She couldn't help but feel so close to the girl. Feeling abandoned and alone was something she understood completely.
"I heard the entire conversation with Integra. I didn't plan on turning her unless she asked. But, with Integra's orders; I won't be able to unless absolutely necessary. Alucard, she really is so much like me." Seras tried to hold back a tear. She saw how Aqua felt towards her Master. He is the closest thing to a father that she has. Yet; a hint of darkness, and she's punished! It wasn't right.
Alucard's grin disappeared. He still really did care for Seras as a daughter. He walked up to her and put his hand on her shoulder.
"Seras, this is something I have learned from experience. From You. Those difficult times and hardships that a person goes through are what make a person stronger. They forge your character from the inside out. This is how you became strong, Seras. It will be the same way with her," he said in a fatherly tone. Anymore; he really hated seeing Seras cry. It reminds him of when Mina would cry in his chest and he would do his best to hold her tightly.
Seras and Alucard's touching moment was interrupted when they noticed Aqua beginning to shuffle a LOT. The two of them looked at each other and knew automatically what was wrong.
Nightmare.
Alucard then used his powers to sneak into Aqua's dream. The mental walls she had put up were quite impressive. They were quite difficult to penetrate. Alucard could only laugh.
When he reached her mind; what he saw made him actually breath in in shock. She was fighting Heartless while another version of her that was much darker and evil (yet extremely sexy-looking) was screaming while the Hellsing Seal circled her and three phrases began to echo. Each in a different voice. "The Bird of Hermes is my name, Eating my wings to make me tame." "Madness and Genius are two sides of the same coin." The third one was in her voice. "Darkness and Light are One and the Same."
Alucard was stunned. He pulled away from the dream to keep his head in one piece.
With a flick of her eyes; Aqua woke up to find Alucard and Seras looking straight at her. Alucard had spoke up with a serious expression.
"We need to talk."
AGAIN, it's extremely short! I seriously need to sleep more and find more free time to do this. Sorry for the fact that these two chapters are really short. I promise, Chapter 8 will have 2K+ words. It might not be done for the next couple of weeks, though. PLEASE REVIEW!
