Valentine's Day is coming up! n-n I can hardly wait for it! Not only does it make me feel all fluffy and sweet, things like this fic are spawned. It MAY be done by V-Day, but don't hold your breath...o.O It's gonna be long. Maybe longer than my other fics! Anyways, I have an OC in this fic who will also be in my later fics...If you look at my profile, there will be a note on that! Ok, enough of this, I wanna get this started!
Disclaimer: I only own Harley...o.o Yup yup yup!
Note: A cookie to any and all who can tell me where Harley's last name came from. Here's a hint: Think survival horror!
Another Note: I know that Seras will seem a little OOC...everyone will be a little...And the beginning is serious, but I swear it WILL turn funny
Seras was depressed. Seriously depressed. And she had no idea why. She couldn't eat, though that was a rare occurance in itself, she couldn't sleep, she hadn't left her room in almost three days, and she just felt bad. She was curled up in a ball on her coffin bed, trying to sleep and failing as usual. There was a knock on the door, but she didn't move. "Come in," She said in a monotone, sighing slightly.
"Police Girl," She heard Alucard say as he walked up to her. "It's been three days. What's wrong with you?" She didn't answer, keeping her back to him. The elder vampire's normal smirk was instead a frown, a slight note of concern in his voice. He waited a moment before crossing her arms. "...I'd like to hear an explanation, Police Girl. You haven't acted like this in a long time...Drinking your blood has always been a problem...But now you're neglecting your need to sleep? Even I have to sleep."
"I don't want the blood," She said, curling up tighter. "And I don't want to sleep."
"Police Girl..." He warned, frowning again. "I won't put up with this. Don't you realize you're only hurting yourself?"
"Then let me," She growled, ignoring the sharp prick in her mind as he expressed his displeasure. "Leave me alone, Master. Please." Alucard was about to chew her out of this rut she was in. But before he could, he heard his Master summon him.
"This isn't over, Police Girl," He said, starting to disappear. "I'll be back later." Seras didn't say anything, curling up as much as she could before sighing heavily and pushing the button and let the coffin lid come down.
"You took your time," Integra commented as Alucard walked into her office through the wall. "May I ask what you were doing?"
"Police Girl's getting worse," He replied, unable to shield the worry in his voice. "It's been three days now, she hasn't gotten any better."
"And you have no idea what might have caused this sudden change in her behavior?" Alucard shook his head, sitting down in a chair. "At least there haven't been any attacks as of late. Then we would really have a situation on our hands." The vampire didn't reply, so she continued. "Anyways, I have some news that involves you."
"Oh?"
She nodded. "It seems we'll be having a guest in a few hours." She smiled as he blinked and looked at her curiously. She took out a cigar and lit it. "You remember little Harley Sunderland, don't you?" At this, Alucard bristled, growling softly. This made his Master chuckle. "It seems you do."
"Of course I remember that juvenile deliquent," He growled, crossing his arms. "Who could forget her!"
"Come now, Alucard. When was the last time you saw her? Three years ago? Four?" Integra chuckled again. "You're the only vampire I know who fears a teenager, and one who actually adores you."
"Adore! I don't think using me for as a target is being adored. I don't think dying my hair pink is being adored. And I sure as hell don't think hiding my guns is being adored." He almost pouted. "And whenever I do anything that makes her upset, she comes running to you and I'm the one that gets in trouble. She's nothing but trouble."
Integra couldn't argue with that. Harley Sunderland was the daughter of James Sunderland, the man who created many, many weapons for Hellsing during the former Hellsing leader's time. In fact, he created Alucard's .454 Casul Longslide. That was his last project before he and his wife, Maria, were killed during a vampire attack. Alucard had disposed of them and found Harley by their bodies, drenched in their blood and crying her eyes out. She was only 5 at the time; She had had no idea of what was going on. Alucard had took her away from that carnage and watched over her until Integra, only 13 at the time, was able to find someone to take care of her.
Since then, Harley had always taken a liking to the vampire, though she had no memory of what happen. Alucard had supressed it for her. She had been alright when she was younger, quiet and shy. But as soon as she hit the double-digits, that all changed. All of a sudden, she became a bundle of energy who loved pranks and sugar, and a knack for creating weapons and explosives. She was now fifteen years old, still as hyper as ever, still as mischevious, but now more headstrong and determined.
She could pull stunts that could make Alucard proud.
Except he was usually the one the stunts were being pulled on.
Alucard sighed. "Why is she coming here and for how long?"
Integra finished her cigar and leaned back in her chair. "Her house is being fumigated..That's at least what her guardian told me..."
"...She blew up a room, didn't she?"
"Yup. She'll be staying her for at least a week, probably more. There was no fire. Just half of the house is blackened," She said, and smiled. "At least now you'll have something to do, since you've been bored out of your mind these past few days. And who knows? Maybe Harley can help cheer Seras up."
"At my expense..." Alucard muttered and stood up. "Very well then, Master. I'll go and tell the Police Girl." He started to turn but stopped when Integra spoke up.
"Alucard. I know that this is most likely none of my business..." The blonde faltered for a split second. "But let's not do anything that may make the Police Girl's...condition...worse. Understand?"
Her only reply was a smirk and a chuckle as the vampire disappeared.
Ok, I swear everything will come together...o.o I swear on Father Anderson! And the fluff will show up soon. Anyways, please read and review, I really look forward to writing this.
On a totally unrelated note, which Integra pairing do you people like other than IxA? o.o I need to know. Adios!
