Kagome smiled as she gazed at the deep blue sky. Such a lovely day. The men have stopped pestering her-- For now-- And she felt like today would be a calm day. Nothing seemed to be going bad, and even she felt a sense of peace.

Though she was not happy to admit that she has not spoken to the new member of the crew yet, and it was daytime, so she cannot see her now. She sighed. It's too bad, she wished to see her, she really did, but every time she thought about it she felt nervous. In the end she was unable to gather enough courage to find the girl and introduce herself. It has been so long since she has talked to a woman, a real woman-- What if she forgot how to be a real woman!? She rolled her eyes. It hasn't been that long!

If that was not the cause of her nervousness, then what was? Maybe she did not wish to talk to a girl about fuzzy things? She was not very fuzzy anymore, not like she use to be, anyway.

She was surrounded by men every since she came back to Earth. All she can say is: 'Yes Master' this, or 'Right away Master' that. She was use to it by now, but it was starting to get under her skin by this point. Men ogling her. Her master's are complete nut jobs. Just the other night her master said the strangest things to her, just to see how she would react! All of this, yet she has no control over it!

She sighed and rubbed her face in frustration. Maybe he was right for once. She does need some girl time. Then again, it's best not to get attached to the people around her. She is better off not making friends. She will just lose them in the end anyway, like always.

She groaned, wondering how she gets into this sort of mess. She shouldn't even be thinking things like this, yet here she is, doing something she doesn't really need to be doing. After all, she couldn't help it that her masters were strange, and the one she currently has now takes the cake. Men won't stop trying to feel her up, and she was a complete wreck because of the whole thing!

She resisted the urge to shout into the sky, willing to vent her rage onto the peaceful surroundings. Just when she thought this was such a lovely day too. Why did she have to go and turn it into a bad one? She gave a soft huff. This day couldn't possible get any worse-- Feeling a tug on her senses she rolled her eyes. She stands corrected. He was calling her.

"Best not keep him waiting." She mumbled. Extending a small amount of her powers, she made a portal and quickly walked through it. She sighed. If only she had this power so long ago. Would have saved her a lot of trouble…

Alucard sighed as he slouched further into his chair. He twitched his hands while they were resting peacefully in his pockets. He shifted his feet as they sat unto the table that was stationed in front of him.

"Hmm…" He mumbled.

He lowered his head so that his hat blocked his face from the rest of the world, and he closed his eyes. Such a lovely day, too bad he can't enjoy it. He almost chuckled at his own thoughts. Not like he cared about daylight anyway. It was vastly overrated by the humans. He found darkness to be much more 'lovely' then anything the sun ever gave him.

Then again, his pet was able to bask in the sun while he can't. Not that he was jealous, or anything like that-- It's just that it bothered him that the sun made his eyes sting and his skin tingle if he ever got the chance to expose himself to it. Yet his pet was free to roam and do whatever she pleased, unharmed by the effects of the hellish light sphere in the sky. He snorted and removed his hat, placing it onto the table next to his feet. No, he was not jealous, not jealous at all…

That was another thing that has been on his mind. Was she even human? She walked in the sun, so she was not one of his kind, yet she had powers that he has never seen before. But he has been fighting these, so called, freaks lately. They were not his kind-- He huffed. Not by his standers, anyway-- but they were not human either. He hummed and took off his orange spectacles, placing them near his hat. Yet her powers made his skin tingle and his body shiver, not the kind of reaction he got from the freaks. If she was not one of them, then what was she?

"Hmm…" He sighed and put his hands back into his pocket.

She was a mystery, he gave her that. He did not know what she was, yet he was not curious enough to care. He shrugged, closing his eyes. Doesn't matter to him if she was Satan or God, she was still his servant and that is how he will treat her. Whether she is able to keep his interest or not is how he will value her worth. He smirked. And lately she has been proven to be worth much of his time.

She has loosened up to him, and does not simply say 'master' or agree to everything he says. She showed signs of curiosity by asking him about her new 'playmate', which surprised him at first, but he soon recovered and enjoyed her new found courage. He then started giving her small 'tests' to see what she would do or say.

He chuckled, remembering. They weren't much, but she took him literally when it came to his orders. He just gave her a few tasks, no harm. Though she did not seem to enjoy the jobs he assigned to her, he found them quite hilarious. But his master did not seem to find it quite as funny when Kagome walked into her office, and started to clean it from top to bottom, wearing only a maid outfit… He chuckled. Maybe he was being a little too tough on her? He smirked. Nah.

"Pet." He called her. He needed some more entertainment.

He physically shivered as his body started to tingle from the raw power flowing into his room. What is this power? He grinned, enjoying the vibrant touches that moved around his frame. A spark clashed between his aura and a new threat that appeared in his room. A pinkish portal hit his own dark energy and he hissed in delight. Ah, what a wonderful feeling. He should call her more often if this is the outcome.

He watched with interest as she slowly walked out of the portal and it closed behind her, taking the shocking power with it.

"I am surprised to see you awake, master." She spoke first.

"I've had a lot on my mind." He stated.

"I see." She said nothing more, while she continued to take in his relaxed figure. "Was there something you need?" She asked. He grinned, his fang poking from underneath his lips.

"My boots." He stated, pointing towards his feet resting on the table.

"Your boots?" She sounded confused.

"Yes. My boots, take them off." He commanded. She took a deep breath and her eyebrow twitched in annoyance. He couldn't help but chuckle in amusement.

"You and I both know that your clothes are physical manifestations, Master." She spoke the word 'master' with much bitterness.

"Are you refusing me?" He asked.

"I simply cannot comply with requests that I can't do." She confessed.

"That's too bad." He tried to sound disappointed, yet it was not to convincing since he was unable to remove his smirk. "And here I thought I was finally going to free myself from these reached boots."

"Sigh…" She purposely narrated her action, while sighing in disappointment. "Call me when you find something I can do that's actually useful." She waved him off and went though her newly made portal, before it closed behind her.

He smirked and rubbed the back of his neck, soothing its tingly sensation. He then slowly reached out and picked up his hat, before placing it back unto his head.

"Pet." He called to her once again. A grin was plastered onto his face as the portal reappeared and she stuck her head out of the entrance.

"Yes?"

"My hat." He stated, pointing to his head. "Remove it."

"Ugh!" She growled. His chest rumbled from his low, and slightly amused chuckle, as he watched her cheeks heat up with anger.

Feeling his hat slowly lift off of his head, his low chuckle turned into a deep and greatly pleased roar of laughter...
