Seras lay on her coffin face up, holding a wine glass full of blood delicately above her. She lazily rotated it around in her fingers, entranced by the liquid spinning within. Seras mentally reviewed all that had happened to her from the night she was transformed.

Alright, so in that time I became the fledgeling of the most handsome and the most powerful vampire, joined a vampire hunting organization, learned how to shoot like a vampire, got stabbed by a catholic priest, fell in love with my master yet kept it secret, protected the Hellsing manor from Luke and Jan, somewhat helped make them into our operatives, met Pip, met GC and became her 'mommy', slept in the same coffin as my master, got in a plane crash in Mexico, made Pip my own fledgeling, watched my Master get robbed by a transvestite,

Went to Rio de Janeiro, actually fed from a fresh human, got accused of terrorism, killed a whole bunch of police-people, fought against the 'Dandyman', went to New Jersey and almost got arrested because Alucard shot the bellhop at a motel, went to Canada and stayed there, confronted Anderson again, went home, went to a round table conference at the palace, found that my daughter loved a catboy, got into a few romantic situations with Alucard, shot down some zeppelins when war broke out, fought to protect the manor, made my master not my master, told master I loved him but didn't wait for his answer,

Became a true vampire, decimated the enemy, came back here, my master became my lover and now I'm here. Seras thought, sighing like she had said all that without taking a breath.

"Hmm, you fell for me that long ago?" Seras smirked at the sound of her ex-master's cold, deep voice as he phased through her wall. Alucard chuckled and said,

"I'm going to miss seeing you jump in surprise at me randomly phasing in."

"Some things have to end for others to begin." Seras said simply. She gestured to the table, which had another blood packet and a wine glass, and said,

"Help yourself." Alucard nodded in acknowledgment and walked over to it, pouring some when he got there.

"We got lucky. It's virgin this time, and our favorite type." Seras said, still engrossed in her drink. Alucard grinned and as he poured some of the AB positive blood Alucard said,

"It could never compare to yours my dear kitten." Seras chuckled and sat up as he walked back over to her. Alucard sat across from Seras and the two clinked glasses to nothing in particular. After they (classily) downed their glasses of blood they were immediately making out, blood is an aphrodisiac after all. Seras broke away for a second to ask flirtatiously,

"How do I look?" Alucard chuckled and kissed her on the forehead.

"Beautiful... Seras." he murmured. Seras giggled and kissed Alucard.

Meanwhile, Yumie was sitting in Pip's room, having a staring contest with her blood packet. The reason she was in his room was because pretty much everyone(minus Alucard and Seras of course) was in there because they were bored.

"This is dinner?" Yumie snorted, looking at the blood packet disgustedly.

"Yet you haven't touched it." Pip noted. He had already downed his about five minutes ago and was now staring at Yumie. Yumie glared at him and said sarcastically,

"Well maybe I'm not as good at adapting from CATHOLIC to heathen as you people are."

"I was never Catholic. I'm actually hard-core atheist." Yumie's eyebrows shot up then her face twisted into a snarl.

"Hienkiel, would you please do me a favor and hit Pip?" Yumie asked.

"Nah. I vas fakingk Catholic because I had novhere else to go." Hienkiel said, taking a drag of her cheap cigarette. If it weren't for her ripped up priest's outfit and the sunglasses you could hardly tell it was Hienkiel, seeing as she was exposing some cleavage and she had gotten extensions. You could actually tell Hienkiel was a woman now. But this caused problems from a certain frenchmen.

"You know I'm glad you took my advice." Pip said, sauntering up to Hienkiel with a perverted grin. Hienkiel kneed him in the groin before he could get any closer. Dok, for no real reason, was sleeping on the floor. And yes, there was a puddle of drool right by his mouth.

"Hey, let's draw stuff on his face." Jan snickered, pulling out a rather menacing Sharpie. Pip grinned maniacally and the two vampires snuck up on the sleeping Dok and were about to put their pens on his face when Dok's arm shot up and grabbed their arms in a vice grip. Dok growled and glared at them, murder in his eye.

"Don't. You. DARE." Dok growled. Pip and Jan made a 'meep!' sound and hid behind Yumie and Rip(in that order). Dok went back to sleeping... and now snoring. Everyone stepped back about a foot.

This, is beneath me. Walter thought irritably, walking up to Integra's office. He at the moment was also drinking a blood packet with a straw like some sort of macabre juice box. Integra insisted-no, commanded he not phase anywhere and walk at a normal pace to wherever he's going when doing things in the manor except if it was deemed urgent by anyone else. And Walter had just noticed how big the Hellsing manor was.

God why can't that woman be a LITTLE nicer to me? I practically raised her for fuck's sake. Walter thought. As he passed the kitchen he threw his empty blood packet into the trash can with surprising accuracy. Only because he would have to clean it up later if he had missed. Suddenly, Walter heard footsteps directly above him. He looked up and saw Schrodinger walking on the ceiling above, looking conceited.

"Vell vell, vhat haff ve here? Hello Butler, vhatcha doingk now?" Schodinger taunted. Walter groaned and kept walking, still looking up at the catboy.

"How are you walking on the ceiling?" Walter asked. Schrodinger stopped in his tracks, looking genuinely surprised.

"I'm valking on the ceilingk?" Schrodinger echoed. He then fell headfirst to the floor, making a weird mewing/whining sound when he got upright again.

"Hmph, I thought cat's always landed on their feet." Walter mocked. Schrodinger frowned at Walter and followed him down the corridor.

"For your information Valter, cats only land on zheir feet because of zheir tails, und because Dok was a lazy ass I don't haff a tail." Schrodinger huffed. Walter raised an eyebrow and said,

"Are you sure about that?" Shcrodinger cocked his head to the side and asked,

"Sure about vhat?" Walter groaned and said,

"Are you sure about not having a tail when one seems to be coming from behind you." Schrodinger looked behind him and indeed their was a fuzzy tail swishing back and forth like it was it's own being. Schrodinger, being the distracted little catboy he is, started 'pawing' the end of his tail with interest. Walter raised an eyebrow yet again and continued towards Integra's office.

Thank god it's just up these stairs and down the corridor. Walter thought, breathing a sigh of relief. He wasn't tired from the walk, of course not. He was just bored from walking that far in complete silence and the chatter of the occasional cat boy. Walter started up the stairs, but he was knocked over by a flying red and black, mostly black, blur. GC stood on Walter's stomach, grinning triumphantly down at the butler.

"'Ello there Wally!" GC called, her fangs glinting 'merrily'. Walter groaned and glared at the little ninja. Suddenly this situation triggered a flashback.

A shit-load of years ago...

Young Walter had walked through the entire manor searching for Arthur Hellsing's office, and finally (after throwing his manly pride out the window and asking for directions) he had found the right place.

"Finally, after I just walk up those stairs and go down the corridor this walk through the entire crazy place will be over." Walter sighed, relieved that his trek was finally over. He started up the stairs, but was knocked over by a black and white blur. Walter was shaken up by the sudden fall(and the foot on his stomach) but he regained his senses. He didn't expect to be pinned to the floor by the foot of a lolita looking girl wearing a white suit with a fuzzy hat.

Walter was mostly staring at her red eyes and her fangs though.

"Too slow!" she said in a singsong voice. Walter frowned at her but she continued, saying something he didn't expect.

"How do ya' expect to hunt vampires like that?" she taunted.

"Vampi- what?!" Walter stammered, not knowing what in the world this crazy girl was saying. Her grin widened and she extended her hand to him, saying,

"Welcome to Hellsing Walter. My name is Alucard, and we're going to be good friends." Walter stared at her for about five minutes before asking,

"Ms. Alucard are you trying to seduce me?" Alcuard laughed maniacally and stepped on his face. Walter swore he heard her growl,

"I'm a GUY goddammit!"

Good times, good times. Walter thought sarcastically. GC waved a hand in front of Walter's face and said,

"Hello? Earth to Walter? WALLY!!" GC stepped on his face and Walter tried to pry it off. He swore he could hear Schrodinger mutter, "I HATED zhat movie!" in the background. Walter after ten minutes managed to get the draculina's foot off his face and stand upright again. He glared at GC and asked,

"What in the world was that for?"

"I got bored." GC answered simply. Walter groaned and stepped around the girl, going up the stairs once more. Both GC and Schrodinger followed him, the two of them chatting about pretty much nothing. Walter blocked out their nonsense talk by thinking really loudly, if that's even possible.

"Finally we're here." Walter muttered when he reached Integra's office. He opened the door and had to stifle a groan. Integra was there, but so was Luke. He was leaning over her desk and the two of them were conversing about a piece of paperwork Integra was so joyfully doing.

"I was hoping Luke wouldn't be here but I guess it can't be helped." Walter said dryly. Integra and Luke turned to face Walter, both of them glaring at him.

"What is it Walter?" Integra spat.

"I have a question: How much do you know about the Russian organization that attacked along with Iscariot and Millennium?" Walter asked. Integra was about to say something, but she couldn't. She hardly knew anything about the Russians that attacked and their leader had been no help at all. Walter smirked at her 'answer' and said,

"Allow me to inform you then. They are known as Серп зуба, or in out language 'Sickle Tooth'. This name probably comes from the fact that their Russian and vampires. This division in the Red Army is completely run by the woman you encountered on the Major's zeppelin, Admiral Zinaida Kirillova. We don't know much about her, besides the fact that she's completely human. Their goal isn't clear yet, but it is possibly akin to Millennium's goal.

"They are, as you have seen, far superior to Millennium. But, even though the two organizations are rivals, our latest intelligence reports state that the two are working together now." Integra's eyes widened.

"What? How come we never knew about Серп зуба in the first place?!" Integra demanded, standing up.

"Because they were kept secret by Russia's military ever since the Cold War. They didn't want their presence known by anyone until it was time for their attack. And now that the first attack is over we have no idea where they are now." Walter answered.

"I have a feeling..." everyone turned to the wall and saw Alucard phase through.

"I think I know where Millennium and Серп зуба are. This is all dreadfully familiar. I know the style of this kind of attack, it's the kind I would use back when I was a warmongering human. Only one person I know could remember what kind of tactics from that long ago still work." Alucard said, sounding rather serious.

"Oh? Who would that be?" Integra asked. Alucard didn't answer for about a minute, but then he spoke.

"He has many names. The Vampire Prince, Zinaida's guardian, so many more. But I know him as my younger brother, Radu." Alucard answered. Everyone was left speechless by this. Alucard leaned on the wall and continued,

"This will only lead me to believe that Серп зуба and Millennium are in Romania. Zinaida was probably told to come back to Radu after the first attack and prepare for the enemy's coming, our coming. I taught my younger brother that that was an effective tactic and apparently it still is, seeing the damage they've caused to London."

"Right, so we need to head to Romania?" Integra proposed.

"Not necessarily. From our other intelligence reports it seems that Iscariot has reformed so we can't leave the Hellsing Manor unguarded. So I propose we try and do the impossible, which would be to try and get Iscariot's support." Luke said. Everyone stared at him like he was some kind of maniac.

"Are you insane Luke? They would never join us!" GC shouted.

"Actually, according to my reasoning there are three possible ways we could get Iscariot to swallow their pride and help us." Luke said.

"How so?" Integra asked, leaning forwards with interest. Luke held up one finger and continued,

"Well the first would be to blatantly lie to them and say we've converted to their side. This would be the one that wouldn't work all that well." He paused to raise his second finger but continued,

"The second would be to negotiate simply using words, but the chances of this working are very low." Luke sighed and dropped his hand.

"The last and most effective one would probably be negated by simply our own pride or our own ethics. But, it's probably the only way." Luke trailed off.

"Vhat is it?" Schrodinger asked. Luke walked over to the window, stared out it for about a minute then he answered,

"Since Iscariot doesn't know the whereabouts of the two ex-nuns, the only way would be to negotiate using Hienkiel as a hostage."
