Ok so I have my idea for the next chapters! As you know the next one will be about trying to get Abri's emotions back! It will be about the 12 days of Christmas. Also important stuff like the 12 days of Christmas will be in Bold and Italics also her emotions she got back but I'm not going to put every single emotions for the chapters, just the ones that will fit the story :D but keep a lookout for them!
Adi sat there in her chair with her hands on her chin and elbows resting on her knees.
'She has sat there for forty minutes straight!' She narrowed her eyes as she watched Abri sitting up in her bed with the covers up to her waist. Her head lagging looking down at her hands in her lap.
'Come on Abri do something...' she halfway begged as she was also silently waiting for Abri to do some kind of emotion.
"Look! A BUTTERFLY!" She shouted jumping up pointing to the window. Adi held her pose listening for a sound, but nothing was heard. She sighed as she turned her head and looked at the bed to Abri who didn't even turn her head.
"UGH!" Adi screamed.
"I WILL GET YOU TO REACT!" She growled and waited for Abri to yell back at her something funny and they both laugh and smile. She groaned and then went to her chair and sat in it so tired like that it hit the wall.
~Alucard~
He walked around for a while after checking on Abri from the shadows. For some reason he couldn't go in the room. There was something bothering him that just wouldn't let him see her. But after walking in the woods for a long time he finally figured it out.
'I need to see what happen to her.' He thought as walked to his destination. He tried to clear his mind as he did but he couldn't help but feel anger build up inside him.
'Almost there.' He removed his hat and glasses to see the body of George, or what was left of it. The blood was still everywhere on the floor and half of it almost touching his shoes. He frowned and growled looking at the blood but nonetheless started to absorb it. His eye when he saw what he say.
"ALUCARD! PLEASE HELP! HELP ME PLEASE!"
He heard Abri's voice crying out in pure could see her covered in cockroaches and her clawing at her skin to get them off.
"Scream all you want! No one can hear you!" George said as he laughed.
"He'll come! I know he will!" She screamed back still panicking.
"Ah~" He said scratching his chin.
"It seems you have gotten the emotion of love and hope back...this is very strange...Guess I might have to keep you for a while...but Falco is a problem...guess I have to kill him off if he starts to get suspicious." George smiled and then grabbed her by her throat and smashed her against the wall. She gasped and the sick sound of crushing roaches was the only thing that broke her fall slightly. She was going to crawl away but then he grabbed her shoulder and held her against the wall taking his other hand under her chin and making her look at him.
"I guess I have to take your emotions right now before you get any ideas." He said as he moved close to her face.
"W-what are you-" She was not able to finish her sentence as he hovered two inches from her lips and she felt like she was getting her soul sucked out of her. She watched as he breath in bring some kind of clear looking mist past her lips. She started to make a choking sound as it looked like she couldn't breath and was trying to grab his hand and get it off her. She tried to dig her nails into his arm but it was too late, her strength was already starting to vanish.
Alucard couldn't and didn't want to see anymore but the memories, the thought, and the thrilling joy that George was feeling was running in in his mind. Alucard took a step back and the blood stop flowing into his body and ran down past him as he sidestepped it.
'If only he was still alive.' He growled and his fist shook in anger.
"ADI! DID YOU HEAR?!" Seras came running in the room only to find Adi face first on the floor with different items around her that looked like it could make lots of noise. She still had her hand on a blow horn but as she could tell there was not more 'blow' in it.
"hn?" She asked in a weak voice sitting her head up that had a bright red mark from laying on the floor.
"Uhh..what happen?" She asked and pointed to the pile of noise and ish.
"Well um you see," she started as she paused so she could get up and dust her cloths off.
"I've spent the last few... whatever minutes, I lost count, trying to get her to react but she won't react to anything." Adi said jumping and waving her arms around. Seras blinked for a second and looked at Abri who was still sitting like she was the last time she checked.
"She's not moved at all?" Seras asked and Adi shook her head.
"I had to make sure she was still alive I'm not sure how many time! I'm surprised she blinks!" Seras couldn't help but smirk at how worked up Adi was getting over her best friend.
"Oh that's right!" Seras snapped her fingers and Adi stopped holding up another blow horn in Abri's ear.
"The building that Abri was is was destroyed!" Adi dropped the horn and snapped her head to Seras.
"WHAT?! HOW?!" She asked and Seras shook her head.
"We don't know! All we know is that it's a bunch of rocks!" Seras tried to think hard of what could have happen but she couldn't.
"Also Integra is holding a meeting and it's mutual we are there. The Iscariot decides to come at a bad time..." She mumbled and Adi's eyes went wide.
"No! I need to stay with Abri then and-" she stopped as Seras shook her head.
"Don't worry Alucard is going to be here in a few minutes." She said and Adi held her breath before she sighed and in a flash of a minute removed everything that she had.
"Ok lets hurry, the faster we get there the faster it's over." She grumbled holding the door waiting for Seras to exit. As soon as she passed, Adi took another look at Abri before she hesitated to leave.
'It's fine Alucard will be here in a while...wait..' A thought came in her head.
"Was it him?" She said out loud to herself.
"Adi come one!" Seras shouted and Adi flinched and took one last look at Abri before closing the door.
As soon as the door closed Alucard stepped out of the shadows beside Abri's bed. This was the first time he really got a look at her since she left three days ago. She was still pale, a bit more skinny than before, her hair now was to her middle back and her eyes as dull as raw silver ore but was waiting to be opened and shine.
"Abri... look at me." He asked and she did nothing.
"Abri..." He mumbled and brushed the back of his hand on her cheek with a sigh before sitting on the bed and making her look up at him. He wanted to think that she was looking at him, but he could tell that her eyes were seeing right past him at nothing but darkness.
'What should I do.' he asked himself and he slid his hand away from her slowly and just when his hand was resting on the bed, Abri blinked and something sparked in her eyes. He didn't move as Abri's eyes started to focus on him slowly looking around him, from his eyes, his forehead, then back to his eyes taking in every inch of his face slowly. her fingers twitched a little bit, then a soon after she reached up her hand and brushed her hand on his cheek like he did her but her palm was touching him and cupping his face.
Her eyes narrowed slightly as she curiously like she was looking at him for the first time. She then took her other hand and put it on the other side of his face and shifted so she was on her knees standing up so she could be eye level with him. He sat there and waited for her to realize that he was really there and she was home again. But it seemed she was having a hard time. He took his hand making her grab his hand and put it on her face so she could feel he was real.
"Welcome home." he said and pulled her hand forward and she fell onto his arm. Even if she couldn't feel the emotion of joy and happiness. He knew somewhere deep down she was. But she seemed to get that she needed to wrap her arms around him too and he held her there not wanting to move or let go of her. But the moment was cut short as there was a knock at the door. Growling slightly he gently took his arm from around her and detached her arms from him to answer the door.
"What is it Police Girl." He asked as he walked to the door knowing she could hear him.
"Why do you keep calling me that! I'm over 100 years old!" She whined and epped when he halfway jerked the door open to see Seras waiting there holding a box.
"I will call you whatever I want." He commented and then looked at the box.
"Oh right! Integra wants Abri to get out and see if we can trigger anything and ignore the box I'm running an errand." She said and Alucard nodded then turned to Abri who was leaning forward a bit to see Seras face. She looked like she was in a bit of pain because her body shook to hold her up as she leaned forward. Then she collapsed on the bed falling to her hands and knees.
"I'll get her out, she seems to need to get her body stretched out." He said and Seras smiled then went off on her way. He turned around to see Abri had slid herself on the edge of the bed and was about to stand up.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you." He said and but she was going to anyway and he poked her forehead making her fall back on the bed. She rubbed her forehead and looked at him in wonder why he didn't let her get up.
"You would have fell." He said and she just stared at him and sat up again and held her arms out to him. He looked at her arms then back at her before sighing and picked her up and cradled her in one arm letting her rest her head on his shoulder and her arms around his neck.
"Lets go say hello to everyone." He said and Abri nodded her head halfway. After going around the house and everyone almost crying and cheering happy that Abri was back, because the last time they saw her they were mean because of George's meding with her so they all felt bad. But when Alucard explained that she had to get her emotions back and that saying sorry was useless. So soon everyone just left Abri and Alucard to roam around the house. But mostly she was pointing to things she didn't see in a while or some new changes. When they went to the drawing room, there was Walter with a fake toy partridge and a small pear tree decoration he was setting up in there.
"Ah Alucard, and Mikayla is with you. Glad to see your up and about." He said and there was a silent death tone as she didn't say anything.
"She's coming around." Alucard said as he saw but butler's face sadden.
"I hope so..." He said and Alucard couldn't help but nod.
"Also Integra will need a report on how she's doing if anything changes." He said as he started to fix up the room.
"So far as emotions-" Suddenly Abri pointed at the christmas decoration.
"Oh, this?" Walter asked and looked the small potted fake plant she was looking at.
"It's something we always put out on the first day of christmas." He said and Abri keep pointing to it until Alucard walked over to it and sat her on the couch next to it where she gently touched it's leaves.
"I see she's has her curiosity back." He chuckled and watched as she keep with it.
"Yes." Alucard replied and watched as Abri looked over the small plant.
'I just hope that it's soon.' He thought.
So she has got her curiosity back :D
