27 Chapter 27 - Day 5 (2/2)
”Of course. Humans are such simple creatures, but vampires are more complex.”
”Really?”
”You'll understand in time.”
After they drink the blood, Alucard gets summoned by Integra and seras has to go too.
”Seras, snap out of your daze. Integra is calling us.” Alucard states looking at seras' dazed expression.
”Oh! I'm sorry master.”
”It's fine, now come along.” He says before portaling to Integra's office.
”Yes master.” She affirms before doing the same.
Just as seras is about to come out of the portal, she senses multiple people in Integra's office.
'I guess everybody's here. Even that Yumie chick.'
They portal out of the wall that is to the left of the desk if you were to look at it. Integra and Walter are by the desk, while the Iscariots are at the wall on the right side of the room.
When they appear all of the Iscariots glare at them, well mostly at seras.
”Ooh, the tension in here is very high. Why is that?” She asks knowing the answer.
Before any of the Vatican members can yell back, Integra speaks.
”Please stop taunting them seras. After yesterday we're lucky they didn't declare war on us.” She rubs her head showing that she is getting a headache.
”Yes sir.”
After their exchange, Maxwell speaks.
”If you're through with training your pets, I would like to get the interrogations underway.”
”That's fine by me.” Integra gets up and follows after the Iscariots.
They all convene in front of a set of doors inside the basement. Integra recognizes it as the family library that houses all of the Hellsing organizations knowledge.
”What are we doing here?”
”This, is where you'll be staying until we come and get you to start the process.”
”What? Why couldn't you just get us from our rooms?” Seras asks.
”.....”Maxwell doesn't even give her any attention.
'Is he hoping to anger me by ignoring me? How childish.' She chuckles to herself.
{After many days of being antagonized by you, I believe this is his only option.}
{True, but what will he do when he has to interrogate me? This is going to be fun.}
{remember Police Girl, no harming them physically or mentally without cause.}
{I know.}
{Good.}
As they're talking telepathically, the Iscariots are also talking to each other.
”What's with the wait, I don't want to be in this hellspawn infested hole a second longer.” Anderson complains.
”It's procedure Anderson. I'm not going to be breaking it just because we're angry.”
”I know Maxwell.”
”Good, then let's go outside and let them stew.”
When they all leave, seras brings out a deck of cards from her inventory.
”So, what's your poison?” She shuffles them professionally while asking.
”I'm good with any.” Walter chuckles confidently.
”I prefer rummy, but I could play 5 card as well.” Integra states.
”I'm with Walter.”
”Great, then we'll play some old fashioned Rummy. What should the penalty be for the loser?”
”Penalty? Nobody said anything about that!” Integra denies this.
”Aw come one Sir Integra, what's the point of playing cards if the loser gets away scot free?”
”She's right sir, competitions have losers and they should be punished for losing.” Walter brings out his inner teacher.
”Or, are you afraid that you'll be the one to lose?” Alucard suggests tauntingly.
”Ridiculous. In fact, let's make it official. The loser will have to wear a frilly pink tutu for a week.”
”””Deal.”””
”Then let's get it on.” Seras starts to deal out seven cards to everyone.
A few hours go by and it's around 11:00 PM, Maxwell is finally done completing the preparations for the first interrogation. He commands Anderson to get the first victim.
When Anderson gets to the room he hears yelling and opens the door roughly silencing the people inside.
He storms in right after and gets frozen at the sight in front of him.
'Alucard is wearing a pink tutu?'
”What the hell is happening!” He yells out.
Alucard gets angry that he was seen like this before his body is covered in black shadows. When they get released, a young girl wearing a white suit is in his place.
”Master, you look nice like this.” Seras jumps at him and catches him off guard for the first time.
She gives a quick hug while trying to pick him up. Before she can though, her master punches her into the ground causing a crack to form.
”Are you going to talk or are you going to continue to gawk like an idiot Judas Priest?” Alucard asks with his normal voice making the contrast striking.
”You're Alucard?”
”Yes? Oh, would you rather to fight me in this form from now on?” He twirls a couple times showing himself off.
”Shut up! You heathen!” He yells and goes to leave before remembering why he is there.
”Sir Hellsing, you will be the first one. So follow me.” He leaves hurriedly after saying so.
Integra stops laughing and gets up from her seat to follow Anderson.
”I wonder how it will be? Not as bad as I'm thinking probably.” She mutters to herself.
”It will be fine Master. They don't have the balls to do anything anyway.”
”That's true.”
”We'll be here waiting for your triumphant return, Sir Integra.” Seras says while pumping up her fist.
As soon as they leave and the doors closed seras stops it with the act and gives a serious face for the first time in a while.
As she is facing toward the door in front of the other two roommates, they don't notice her drastic change. She puts her face back to normal and turns p her master.
”Master, is it ok if I go somewhere?”
”Go? Where?” He asks twice.
{It has to do with the future. Will you let me use my powers?}
{it's not life threatening is it?}
{not to me, but to someone I care about.}
{I see, then I'll allow it. Don't be too long.}
{Don't worry master. I don't just have the ability to teleport anywhere, I can also make it so it's anytime as well.} She says this telepathically and gets her ability ready to go.
{What?} he tries to ask when she leaves.
”Damn her. Always keeping these secrets from me!”
”What secrets? And where did seras go?”
”She went somewhere far away. Don't worry though, she'll be back soon.”
Seras reappears in the cold tundra. She lands in front of a temple that was somehow built in the North Pole. She is surprised that she doesn't feel the effects of the in sub zerotemperatures despite wearing a mini skirt and short sleeved shirt.
”The things I do for people I care about. If Walter gives me any shit about what I'm doing for him, I swear I'll kill him myself.” She speaks to no one while walking to the front doors.
'Hmm. This wood somehow looks new yet I know for a fact it's ancient.' She thinks to herself as she touches The wooden doors.
Seras phases through them and enters the main area of the temple.
'Well that's pretty creepy.'
There are horses everywhere inside this temple. Statues, paintings, carvings, drawings, everything about horses.
'Oh my god, there are even horse clothes!' She sees a bunch of horse masks and hoof gloves and shoes.
”These people were insane.” She says again not being quiet as it looks like nobody has lived in this place for decades.
