Date: Present: Thursday June 25th

Time: 7:56pm (meanwhile)

The Wild Geese were extremely quiet when both Seras and their captain left. Both John and Cyrus began pacing back and forth as they noticed Bernadotte was gone for around a good twenty minutes.

"Damn…I wonder what's going on." John finally spat out breaking the silence.

Cyrus finally sat down near a chair and sighed. "I dunno. Fuck I feel so bad. Really bad."

"We all do." Doc replied as every man in the room nodded and sulked.

They remained quiet again until they heard stomping footsteps.

"I am so outta here!" Candy, there what would have been their source of entertainment, announced as she put on her coat.

"EH!" Tony muttered out as now all the men gave him a glare, which shut him up. "Have a nice drive."

Candy rolled her eyes as she grabbed her purse. "Hopefully. I mean I guess a nice drive will be the highlight of my night cuz this whole night stinks so far."

She walked toward the exit but then the front door was kicked open. Entered Bernadotte, his hat hiding his eyes while his hands were in his pockets. The Wild Geese knew immediately this was not a good sign since this meant he was either really pissed off or depressed like recently the time he lost his eye. His footsteps were heard until they heard a slam indicating he went to his room.

With his head still hanging down, he walked past Candy, and his men. No one dared to ask what happened but still that didn't stop Candy saying something despite the weird atmosphere.

"Well. I guess my "work" here is done. You know come to think of it…This was one of the best nights ever. I didn't have to take off my clothes in front of you and I still got paid! Life can be so wonderful! "

The Wild Geese blinked at Candy as she shrieked with laughter.

"Sayonara boys! Hope you all have a great life or whatever those farewell greeting cards say. Oh and do tell Pip this…Next time he wants a girl to entertain him, let it be with the RIGHT girl. Not some greedy glam girl like myself."

Candy waved as she stepped out. "Toddles."

The Wild Geese all dully said bye as Doc commented as he closed the door behind her.

They remained quiet for a few moments until John regained his senses. It was now time to temporarily act as captain.

"Alright men. Clearly there ain't no party tonight. Let's go to the rooms and get an early night's rest." He shouted.

All the men all got up and slowly made their way into the rooms. They hope that somehow in the morning or should they say the next night, everything will be solved.

Location: Hellsing-Barracks-The Captain's Room

Date: Present: Thursday June 25th

Time: 8:05pm

Pip Bernadotte has officially deemed this night the worst night of his life. He knew deep down his soft spot for women would one day get him into trouble. He didn't think it would be so soon and let alone he'd fall in love ever.

He truly thought the only way he'd ever get close to love or at least have a family was to get himself a bearable and pretty girl pregnant. Of course he would do the right thing. Marry her and from there he would teach his son about his family ways.

Although unlike all the men in his family, he will allow his son to make the choice whether or not he wanted to be a mercenary. In some ways, it was if Bernadotte planned out his life.

Clearly this all changed when he met Seras Victoria, a skittish yet very sweet girl who happened to be a vampire. She was warrior of the Hellsing Organization, a vampire beauty to behold, and the most compassionate being he has ever met. She was everything that he hadn't expected his dream girl would be.

No.

Seras Victoria was even better then he ever dreamed off.

But now it was all over. He let his own selfish assumptions get the best of him. He managed to lose not only the chance of being with Seras but now he just lost their friendship. Somehow knowing that she won't be acknowledging his existence…Somehow not having Seras in his life anymore…It was all too much for him.

'Mignonette.'

Pip buried his face into his pillow. He felt so terrible he thought he might actually cry. Although he felt like he didn't deserve too and settled for watery eyes and some sniffles.

As he began shifting around in his bed to try to get comfortable, he noticed on the right side in the room, there were all of his presents. But that wasn't what caught his eye. What caught his eye was the extremely large, pink present in the front and middle of them all.

He sat up from his bed as he remembered whose present that was.

'Oh Seras…'

Pip now was torn. He didn't know if he should go and open the present at the moment or to just ignore it. Of course, curiosity had won of him over.

'I wonder…'

Slowly, he got up from his bed and walked for about fifteen long steps until he reached the present. He grabbed it and held it for a while and then he slowly walked back to his bed.

He observed the baby pink present and then he noticed under the magenta bow was a white card. It read:

To: Captain Pip Pervert Bernadotte. From: The eternal YOUTHFUL, Seras Victoria

Pip smirked for a second before frowning. He held the present until he finally found the courage to untie the bow.

Instead of finding one huge present, he found himself looking at numerous of presents, each stacked neatly on top of each other. Each present contained a tag that had a number and he thought.

'The hell? '

He took each gift and placed them down. He was confused with the first thirteen presents but that didn't stop him from laughing. Then he out right hollered with laughter at the other twelve boomed with laughter.

In the box contained the following.

1) A baby sea foam green baby blanket.

2) A cuddly brownish red teddy bear.

3) A sippy cup.

4) A hat.

5) Playdough

6) A soccer trading cards.

7) A tiny jar of marbles.

8) A sling shot.

9) A pet rock.

10) A water gun.

11) A jar of candy.

12) A glass bottle of soda.

13) A car magazine filled with sexy pin up girls.

14) Cigarettes. (The bubble gum kind)

15) A pair of combat boots.

16) An AK-74 assault rifle.

17) A pair of matches and lighters.

18) A carton of empty boxes of cigarettes.

19) An overly filled cartoon of nicotine patches and gum.

20) A can of his favorite beer.

21) A first aid kit.

22) A guitar pic.

23) A pair of pineapple boxers.

24) A pink shirt.

25) An eye patch that had a smiley face on top.

26) …

Bernadotte noticed that number 26 was blank and then he looked the last present in front of him. He noticed this gift was wrapped and when he did he let out a tiny gasp. He held the gift in his hand for a few minutes, as he read the card on top of the scarf again. It read:

26) An knitted one of kind scarf, for a one of a kind person.

At this point one Pip was feeling like complete shit. He got up and wore the scarf around him. He grabbed all his presents and laid them down the bed. He was going to get the empty huge box and throw it away until he noticed a white envelope in the bottom of the box.

"What's this? " he whispered.

He grabbed the letter and opened the letter slowly.

Warning: If you make fun of any misspelled words or grammar errors in this letter, I warn you…There will be blood.

Greetings Grandpa!

The day you have been dreading has finally come! Haha You're totally dying in the inside at the fact you are now officially a geezer.

Hate to be you! XD haha.

So I guess since it is your "special" day, I, Seras Victoria, former human and police girl, Hellsing's vampire huntress, and finally recent honorary female goose, made it my mission to get you a few things to get you to smile at least once on this "dreadful" day.

By know you are wondering why I gave you so many presents huh? Well if you didn't notice, I took the liberty to get you 26 things, for you! Not to emphasize your age of course. (I'm not that mean you bloody pervert!)

But rather, think of these 26 presents as the 26 years I have missed your birthday. Hehe You know, Gifts 1-12 right? Well clearly they symbolize the years I haven't met you and I decided to give you gifts the most kids would get around that ages. Am not I the sweetest thing ever? (You better think so or I'll flick you with my finger again!)

"Oh…Now I see." Pip said as he smiled. "That girl…she really is something."

As for presents 13-26 those are gifts are the things you told me you got at that age. I also took the liberty of adding in some stuff you wanted and need.

Personally I think you should take 14) and 19) under consideration. I mean come on! Stop smoking the cancer sticks! The Wild Geese and I want you to live a long and happy life…well I'm hoping you at least survive to be 27. Kidding! Haha But knowing you, you'll just roll your eyes.

I hope you enjoy the presents and at least grin once at one of the presents. You are very hard to please. (Wait, that sounded kinda wrong. Get your mind outta of the gutter you dirty man!)

Pip laughed. "She knows me too well."

Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that...As twisted as it may sound. I'm really glad this war has brought us together.

I'm so glad to have met you and the Wild Geese. I know it's been a few weeks but I truly treasure you all in my heart because despite being a vampire... you and all your men accepted me for who I am.

Thank you. I really am lucky to have such someone as special as you in my heart.

-Your Mignonette,

Seras Victoria

That did it. Those last part of the letter was what made Captain Bernadotte crack. That was the most touching thing anyone has written to him. He couldn't believe how someone as sweet Seras would think of such a thoughtful present.

Pip clenched the letter and as a tear shed from his one green eye. It was ruined. Everything was ruined between Seras and him. It was his own bitter assumptions that got the best of him and in the end he not only lost his chance with her, but he broke their friendship.

He lay down on his bed, burying his face in green scarf. He held the note in his chest as he wept silently. Rather then being the usual heart breaker, Captain Bernadotte found himself as the one with broken heart.

"Alucard was it necessary for you to scare The Round Table in the middle of the meeting? " Integra muttered as her servant opened the Hellsing Doors for her.

The No Life King gave a wide grin as he stepped in after her. "But Master, I had to do something! Three of the members tried to interrupt you! I will not have any insolent fools disrespect my master that way!"

Integra raised an eyebrow. "Honestly Alucard. I am not thirteen anymore. Besides, I am capable of handling those men myself."

"Still. You must admit my master….It was pretty funny to see those men paralyze with fear as they pissed themselves!"

Alucard laughed hysterically while Integra rolled her eyes. As they entered upstairs they saw Walter coming down the steps with an angry expression.

Integra noticed his expression and shouted. "What's the matter Walter?"

Walter blinked as he shook his head. "Nothing Sir Integra. I apologize. I did not notice you earlier. I also did not expect for you to come so soon. "

"Yes. Well, it sort of got cancelled due to some tom foolery…"

Integra muttered as she glared at an amused Alucard who was still chuckling.

Walter nodded. " I see. Anyway. Welcome home Sir Integra. Would you like some tea or anything? "

"What's the rush?" Alucard asked as he suddenly appeared before the butler.

Integra nodded. "Yes. Is there something wrong Walter?"

Walter sighed and nodded. "Not with me Sir. But this matter has to do with Miss Victoria and Captain Bernadotte."

Integra blinked. "Oh? What about them Walter?"

"My servant?" Alucard said the smile fading. "Has she done something wrong again?"

"No…It wasn't her fault." Walter grimly stated as the thought of Seras crying pained him. "I believe it was Captain Bernadotte's fault."

"Do you have any proof of this Walter? I mean, perhaps you misheard whatever the situation was and-"

"Sir Integra. I just came back from comforting Seras who was sobbing for about an hour and half. She told me everything that has happened in the past two days and of course the event that happened tonight. She was extremely exhausted and finally fell asleep five minutes ago.

Integra and Alucard blinked and looked at each other for the moment.

"Tell us everything Walter."

To be continued.

NOTE:...Yeah...Pip is depressed again! Awww Seras is such a silly sweetie!

Uh oh...I wonder what Walter was gonna do before Alucard and Integra came...HMMM...

Sorry Seras doesn't appear in this chapter. OH NO! But she will in the next!
