Author's Note: Sorry for the delay with this one. Our internet had a huge hiccup and was out for three days.
Chapter Ten: An Interesting Predicament
Maxine awoke to a familiar and wholly unwelcome ache in her lower belly and back. “Oh great, this is just what I need in a den of vampires,” she hissed out as she got out of bed. It had always been interesting when she had her monthly around Raoul, she really didn't want to find out how Alucard reacted. With current events, the most responsible thing she could do was tell Integra what was going on as soon as possible. With an irritated sigh, she grabbed a black suit and went into her bathroom to get ready for the day.
Integra pinched the bridge of her noble nose as she let out a slow, irritated breath. Her faithful servant Walter stood behind her, gently massaging the tension out of her shoulders while the female glared down at the paperwork scattering her desk. “The bastard has been dispatched and yet ghouls continue to spread like a plague,” she growled out, taking her cigarillo out of her mouth to take a sip of her steaming tea.
“It is rather concerning Sir Integra,” the wizened butler replied, smiling slightly as the uptight female slowly relaxed under his hands. He had been working on a particularly stubborn knot and was fairly sure it would only take a few more moments to finally work the muscle loose. A soft knock on the door broke the quiet moment and undid all of his careful progress.
“Get the door Walter,” the heiress sighed, sounding just as aggravated as he was to be interrupted. So, with a sigh and a regretful smile to his mistress, the old warrior moved to the large door and swung it open to reveal Max in her servant's uniform.
“Good morning Miss. Stone! I'm so delighted to see you are well,” Walter exclaimed enthusiastically, all his earlier irritation fleeing for relief. The woman before him looked much improved since last night, her emerald eyes holding her usual spirit instead of looking dull and lifeless.
“Oh, hey Walter. Didn't expect to see you there. Could you please just call me Max?” she pleaded, giving him an irritated but playful grin.
“It's no use Max. It's taken me years to get him to even call me Sir Integra instead of Sir Hellsing,” sighed the woman she had come to meet. Walter only grinned in response before slowly making his way back to his earlier position next to the platinum haired commander. He opened his mouth to respond when he was stopped by Integra holding up a white gloved hand.
“Save it Walter, we will simply have to agree to disagree on that point,” she bit out, as if interrupting a speech she had heard many a time before.
Max could only smile at the semi-playful exchange before she made her way into the large office. The tall, maroon walls loomed above her and the dark alcove beside the desk made her nervous as she approached. That particular alcove was where Alucard usually showed up and she had no desire to run into the overpowered vampire at this moment. In fact, she would rather avoid him for the next week or ten days. “Uh, Sir Integra I need to talk to you about something,” she began, jumping a bit as Walter shifted slightly to the left. The imposing female only quirked a silver brow as she waited for the soldier to continue. A blush of mortification came over Max's face as her emerald eyes flicked to Walter.
“Well Sir, I'm um, I'm er….,” she stammered, unable to get past her embarrassment enough get out what she was trying to say. It was just Walter for crying out loud! The man has no doubt dealt with this problem for Sir Integra for several years.
No one in the room seemed to notice as the air got subtly colder and a dark shadow began to form on the wall of the alcove near where Walter was standing. In mere seconds the small spot of swirling darkness on the wall grew to a huge portal of living shadow. Within the writhing darkness, a pair of red eyes glared out at the group in the office. “You're on your period,” came an unholy, accusatory voice, making all the humans in the room jump and turn to the dark vortex in the alcove in the wall.
“Get the hell back to your room Max! I'll hold him off as best as I can! Do not leave your room for the duration of your cycle,” Integra commanded, immediately getting to her feet and placing herself between the soldier and the nearly feral nosferatu. A low, demonic growl filled the room at her order as thick tentacles of shadow began to crawl their way out of the shadowy portal.
Max didn't hesitate to see what would happen, immediately making a break for the door. Then, as if in slow motion, Alucard was forming out of the ground in front of her in the span of a literal few seconds; his crimson eyes glaring dangerously down at her. His shadows were flared in an amorphous cloud behind him with thick tentacles sprouting from the inky blackness. Her emerald eyes filled with fear as she tried to halt momentum to no avail, slamming right into the demon's crimson clad torso.
A low, inhuman growl left the creature as his strong arms wrapped around her tightly and his nose burrowed itself in her ebony hair. Another demonic sounding snarl escaped him as his entire body shuddered and his powers flared, causing the candles in the chandelier above to almost entirely snuff out as a thick, red glow began to surround his shadows. “Alucard!” Integra warned, instinctually going for the cross that normally adorned her tie and sprinting towards the pair. Her fingers grabbed thin air, drawing a displeased growl from the now frightened heiress. Without the cross to boost her holy runes there was little chance she'd be able to hold Alucard for long.
The nearly crazed vampire snapped his glowing, blood red gaze to his mistress, a snarl on his pale face as he bared his mouthful of fangs at her. Black slowly began to spread in his glowing eyes like ink as his arms tightened around the human female, causing her to make a noise in discomfort. Then they both disappeared into thin air, drawing a venomous curse from Integra. “Walter come with me! We have to get Max away from that creature before he does anything they both regret,” the heiress snarled, leaving her office and heading towards the stairs that lead to the first floor at a fast clip.
Max struggled against Alucard's iron grip as the world swirled around them and they transported to the vampire's dungeon-like room. Once they were there though, he dropped her like a hot potato and began to pace like a caged tiger. Watching him with a cautious look, the female began to slowly back towards the steel door. As if sensing what she was doing, the nosferatu whirled to face her and snarled harshly with bared fangs; his nearly all black eyes glittering dangerously. “Easy, easy. It's just me,” Maxine soothed, sincerely hoping this reaction was normal for him and not because of what she suspected.
Alucard's shark-like eyes narrowed as he let out yet another demonic sounding growl. “That is exactly the problem,” he bit out aggressively, his gloved hands flexing restlessly as he began to pace again.
“What on earth…?” she began to ask before Alucard interrupted her with a loud roar of frustration.
“Do not act as if you are ignorant! Not after what you went through with the hybrid!” the demon practically screamed, rage flashing in his entirely black eyes as his powers flared and caused the candles in the room to flicker.
Understanding came into Maxine's emerald eyes and she began to shake her head in negation as she pressed into the cool metal of the door. Was that what all her dreams had been about lately? Was that why she had that odd dream last night about a man that looked suspiciously like him and a woman who looked just like her? Was Alucard the one who held the brand on her very soul? No, that couldn't be true! He had only treated her with disdain or rage, not like someone whose soul longed to be with hers. “No, no, you have to be wrong,” she whispered, her voice shaky and full of fear.
The seething demon stopped in place, his entire body going stiff as he closed his eyes in frustration. “I am not wrong, as much as I am loathe to admit it. As much as it enrages me, our souls are intertwined,” he bit out, his voice low and full of deep rage. Max only stared at him, her jaw hanging slightly open in astonishment. If it weren't for the danger thick in the air she would have started laughing out of simple shock. His statement was such a contrast to how he treated her that she almost suspected he was trying to tease her in some way.
“If this is some sort of joke, I don't find it funny,” the soldier bit out in a far too unsteady voice.
“I am not joking, human. My own past self is starting to come forward more and more, showing me memories of things I'd rather not remember,” he snarled viciously, his shadows flaring behind him as his powers flared again and effectively snuffed out the candles in the room.
“The scent of your blood, of your heat, is driving me insane,” came an inhuman growl right by her ear, drawing a shriek of fear from the now shaking woman.
“That's not my fault! Why the hell did you even bring me down here? If you don't want to act on the way our souls are calling to eachother, why are you acting like a vampire protecting a prospective mate?” Max bit out shakily, her scared voice holding an angry undertone.
“Because he wants you, you little fool! I would much rather you be as far away from me as possible, especially in your current condition!” Alucard hissed venomously, staggering slightly as one of his hands came up to grip his head.
“Who is this 'he' you keep referring to?! Look, I don't know what the hell is happening here but I sure as hell don't want to be anywhere near you right now either,” the female grumbled, exasperation clear in her voice as she tried to make anything out in the pitch blackness.
“My past self, my other half, the person I used to be centuries ago,” he gritted out his voice sounded strained and a bit doubled, as if there were two of him speaking at once; one voice slightly deeper than the other.
“A-alucard?” Maxine whispered, apprehension beginning to fill her at what she heard.
“R-run. He's coming and he aims to claim you, something I'm sure neither of us particularly wants,” the nosferatu bit out, his voice sounding even more distorted as the door behind the woman opened.
“But if he forced you to bring me down here, what makes you think he won't simply chase me once he gains control,” the soldier reasoned, eyeing the open door restlessly. It made her feel only slightly safer that there was now an escape route and she doubted she would make it very far anyway. Alucard had vampiric speed, while she was a mere human; it would be basically useless to run. That being said though, the female doubted she would be able to resist the urge once the nosferatu's past self made an appearance. Right now the last thing she wanted was yet another past life to be awakened and she would do anything to prevent that from happening.
“Maxine!” called a familiar and very welcome female voice from just down the hall.
“Go! Get to her as fast as you can! Just get the hell out of this room or he'll trap you in here,” Alucard snarled, his voice growing more deep and heavily accented every second that ticked past.
Not wasting another precious moment, Max darted from the room and fairly streaked up the stairs leading to the hall. It was like running in a nightmare, the steel door that lead to possible safety growing closer at an agonizingly slow rate. It certainly didn't help that she could hear Alucard's inhuman snarls as he fought the part of himself trying to push it's way to the surface. If she could just make it out to Integra she would be safe! The heiress could subdue the 'No-life King' with the odd runes on his gloves and she could safely sequester herself in her room.
Just as her hand came to rest on the cold, steel doorknob she heard a soft, achingly gentle male voice call her name from the room she had just fled. “Maxine, please. I will not harm you,” the strangely familiar sounding voice pleaded, the accented voice almost sounding heartbroken. Something sleeping deep within her cried out at the pain in his voice, giving her an unwelcome flash of a memory that wasn't hers. A memory of being held in an oddly familiar man's arms, a man she recognized from the dream she had after the first encounter with Raoul.
“No! No! No fucking more!” she screamed out in a nearly hysterical voice as she practically threw the door open and flung herself down the hall. Running in a blind panic, Max ran smack into poor Walter; nearly knocking the retired warrior on his ass. Just behind her a mass of living shadow was now clogging the door she had just opened.
“Hold Alucard!” Integra commanded, holding up a gloved hand and narrowing her icy blue eyes. The King of Shadows merely flared his powers in response, rage and dominance flowing thickly in the air from his overwhelming aura. In response, Walter shoved Maxine behind him as he came to stand beside his mistress; effectively making a human blockade.
“Get to your room Maxine and revoke any invitation I or you may have given this beast to enter. I will hold him off as long as I can,” the commanding femme snarled, her face tense in concentration as she began to murmur quietly under her breath. Not wasting a precious moment of the time Integra and Walter were giving her, the soldier sprinted up the stairs as fast as her legs could carry her.
Once she was gone, Alucard formed out of his shadows looking very different. His eyes glittered a sky blue and a thick, black mustache adorned his upper lip. His inky hair now cascaded down his back and he was wearing the form fitting, black, strap covered suit he had been when Integra had first found him. His face was a bit more rugged and his very presence spoke of power and authority. The runes on his snow white gloves glowed an angry red as the furious demon glowered at his mistress. “You dare to keep me from my intended?” the barely contained vampire snarled, his voice low and demonic from his deep rage and indignation.
“I am keeping you from forcing yourself on her. Vladimir Tepes, neither she or Alucard want this as you well know,” Integra tried to reason, her teeth clamped tightly around the smoking cylinder in her mouth.
“I will never force myself on Maxine. I am a man of honor! As for my other half not wanting this, he does not yet remember what she was to us once. What she will continue to be until her dying day. We will never know peace until we finally claim her once again,” 'Vlad' hissed, his voice trembling from his steadily increasing rage.
“Dracul! While I am well aware of just who she was at one time you cannot simply just kidnap the poor woman and force a mating on her. She doesn't yet remember that part of her past nor do I think she's ready to,” the heiress yelled, her glasses flashing and hiding her blazing eyes.
“As I already said, I had no intention of forcing myself on Maxine. I need to protect her,” the shadowy creature bit out, his aura flaring again and exploding a few of the light-bulbs in the ceiling.
“No, you need to leave that poor woman alone! After what that... that abomination put her through she doesn't need another past life brought to the surface right now! Your continued presence could very well inadvertently wake Elizabeta up and drive poor Maxine insane,” the flaxen haired femme nearly screamed, frustration clear in her stern, accented voice.
“I cannot let her out of my sight right now! Don't you understand!” the now shaking Prince of Darkness hissed out, a desperate edge to his voice.
Understanding came into both humans' eyes at once and Walter turned his head to face his mistress. “Sir Integra, it must be his instincts acting up due to Miss. Stone's current condition,” the old butler murmured.
“Vladimir, if you are worried about her being claimed by anyone else; I can assure you that it won't happen. There are no other vampires here besides you and Seras, not to mention the fact that she's so close to my own chambers that none of the male soldiers would dare to even knock on her door,” Integra tried to soothe, not daring to move a muscle as the vampire before her began to actively fight against the runes.
Thick, red tinted arcs of electricity shot from the glowing symbols on his gloves as his entire body went board stiff. A low, entirely inhuman growl ripped from his chest as his eyes went pitch black and the entire manor began to shake violently, causing bits of ceiling to fall on them all. “I will not be kept from her!” he snarled, his voice deep and sounding like a chorus of demons talking at once.
All of a sudden several silver lines wrapped around the creature's writhing, jolting body, effectively trapping 'Vlad' in place. “Lord Vladimir!” Integra yelled, waiting until the enraged creature of darkness' dark gaze was focused on her before slipping to one knee and bowing her head in subjugation.
“Let my servant come back to his senses and I swear to you that you will at least be allowed to be close to her room. I cannot promise you more than that,” the normally in charge woman bit out, sounding as if it galled her to the bone to be doing this. In truth, this was one last ditch effort to try to regain control over a quickly degenerating situation. If this didn't work she would have to force Alucard into dormancy until the end of Maxine's cycle, something that could prove to be dangerous under current circumstances.
“Very well but do not think this will be the last you see of me little Hellsing. When I claim what's rightfully mine, we will become one again,” the nosferatu half threatened half promised, his visage growing faint and finally disappearing as Alucard came back to the surface.
Maxine paced her room a bit frantically, the cross Integra had given her held tightly against her chest. Logically she knew it would do her no good but she still derived comfort from the holy object. She had already revoked any invitation for Alucard to enter her room but she still felt ill at ease. It almost felt as if he was watching her from the blood red walls. Then the lights in the room began to flicker and the very building began to shake as the air around her filled with oppressive rage and indignation. “Oh shit,” she whispered to herself, her heart beating hard in her chest as she cowered slightly.
Then everything just stopped, the mansion becoming far too quiet and still. Even the feeling of being watched and the oppressive feelings in the air faded to nothing, making the soldier feel highly uncomfortable. Her instincts as a warrior were pinging like crazy, telling her that something wasn't right. What had happened to make everything go so still? It made her uneasy and anxious so it was no surprise that a soft knock on her door made her nearly jump onto the ceiling. “Wh-who's there?” she squeaked out, hating how high pitched and fearful her voice sounded.
“Open the damn door,” came a venomous, angry hiss from the other side, a sharp contrast to the knock before.
“A-a-alucard! I don't think that's a good idea,” she stuttered out, backing away from the wooden portal slowly. Fear and downright panic began to fill her as that sleeping part of her once again began to stir, reaching out for the seething vampire on the other side. She desperately didn't want that small part of her to wake up right now, if ever. If it did, she was sure she would go utterly insane.
“Open the door or I'll fucking kick it in!” roared the pissed demon, followed by a hard bang on the only barrier between her and the vampire.
“Go away! Just go the hell away! Oh fuck,” she hissed as another memory slammed into her against her will. A memory of her and a man who resembled Alucard snuggled up by a fire with him gently running a loving hand through her ebony locks.
“Maxine, you already revoked my invitation to enter. I cannot enter that room until you invite me again, you know that better than most humans. Now open the door before he fucking takes over again,” came a strained voice as the sound of claws scraping down wood came through the door. The nosferatu sounded right on the edge of losing it so she began to cautiously move toward the door. He was right about what he had said just seconds before but it somehow didn't bring her much comfort.
“What the hell is going on?” she asked through the still shut entry. She had a suspicion of just what was wrong with the vampire but it was so outlandish and out of character that she found herself needing confirmation. If what she suspected was happening, things were getting weird fast.
“I don't have time to explain. He's coming fast. Open the door!” Alucard ordered, his baritone voice strained but full of authority.
Something in his voice made her immediately reach for the door and fling it open. She had an idea that if this mysterious part of himself made an appearance again it would be dangerous for everyone involved. As soon as the entry opened she was greeted with the sight of Alucard's blazing crimson eyes glaring down at her. Yet, despite the angry look, the vampire physically relaxed at the sight of her. “Until your cycle is over, I will be outside your room,” he snarled bitterly, sounding exasperated as well as pissed off. Maxine's jaw dropped open in astonishment as she staggered slightly from the shock of his declaration.
“Alucard, do you realize what you're doing? How you're treating me?” the nervous female asked, disbelief clear in her slightly shaky voice. He was acting like he was protecting a perspective mate against other suitors while she was in estrus. It had to be because, much like her, the vampire's past self was making Alucard feel his emotions.
“I am well aware of just what me doing this means,” he bit out, his hair lengthening briefly as his powers flared from his rage. He hated the fact that he was being compelled to stand guard over this female. While she may mean a lot to the troublesome shade within his mind, she meant nothing to him! Yet his instinctual reaction to hearing her distress through the door proved to be a sharp contradiction of this conviction. When he had heard her utter the words 'Oh fuck' it had taken everything he had to reign in his urge to simply kick the door in and force his way into the room, regardless of invitation. An action that would have surely ended in his very painful death.
Maxine sighed as she pinched the bridge of her nose in exasperation. “Why, why the fuck is all this happening? You don't want this, I certainly don't want this. Why can't our fucking pasts just leave well enough alone,” she growled, two tears of anger and frustration rolling down her pale cheeks unnoticed. The vampire before her shuddered slightly as he let out a low, quiet sound of distress.
“He believes we fucking need eachother, that neither of will know peace until we give in,” he bit out in a strained voice, fighting against his extreme urge to reach forward and brush her tears away. Not only would he be rebuffed by the current barrier of the revocation but he didn't want to give in to any part of him that was drawn to this female. He was already feeling more than enough for the infuriating human and he didn't want to encourage new feelings to appear.
“How can his wishes be so out of synch with your own if he is you?” the confused and frankly fed-up soldier asked, giving him an impatient look.
“He is not me! He used to be me a long time ago. Now he's just a part of myself that I thought was long dead,” Alucard replied, sounding just as frustrated as she felt. It seemed like both of them were in the same boat and were slowly being forced closer and closer together.
“Well I have a message for him so I hope you don't take any offense to what I'm about to say. Whoever the hell you are, just leave me the fuck alone! I was perfectly happy until all this past life and soul brand bullshit entered my life!” snarled the angry, black haired woman, her emerald eyes flashing with confusion, rage, fear and bitterness.
Alucard hissed and staggered as if punched in the gut, his blood red eyes flashing blue for a brief moment. A low, rage filled growl left the nosferatu as pain briefly flashed through his flickering orbs. “He didn't like that,” the strained nosferatu gasped, sounding amused despite the anger and faint heartbreak in his baritone voice.
“Well good! He can go choke on it for all I care,” Max retorted, staggering a bit herself as pain not her own began to fill her heart. Seeing the mighty vampire look so stricken by her words caused the mysterious, sleeping part of herself to reach out in an attempt to comfort and offer apology. A fact that made her both frightened and pissed off. She didn't like the fact that something inside her was forcing her to feel things she was fairly sure she normally wouldn't. She wanted to feel things because she felt them, not some sleeping, forgotten part of her soul.
“Ah, I see that things are perfectly alright here,” came a calm, British accented, male voice, making both turn to look at the source. There, beside Alucard, stood Walter; a vaguely concerned look on his pale face.
“Yes, the revocation worked as expected and Alucard cannot enter,” the soldier replied, only relaxing slightly. The butler's sudden appearance had caused her stirring past to retreat to the back once more, bringing her some measure of relief from the confusing emotions that belonged to it.
“Very well. Now I'm afraid I must give you some bad news. Sir Integra just got a note on her desk from our good friend, Radu. He is threatening to find and steal Ms. Stone again. If you are both up for it, Sir Integra would like you two to go and put a stop to him before he has a chance to pull anything,” the retired warrior informed them, with a faint smile on his face.
“No,” Alucard answered in a clipped tone, causing both humans to gape at him in shock. His jaw was tense and his hands curled into tight fists as his whole body went ramrod stiff.
“What? Are you going to decide for both of us? I, for one, can't just let that… that creature continue to roam free!” Maxine hissed, her emerald eyes narrowed in challenge as she moved to leave her room and accompany Walter to Integra's office for the mission debriefing.
“I said no,” the now pissed demon snarled harshly, his shadows swirling behind him as his powers flared. Just the sheer amount of power in the burst was enough to make both humans stagger in place and Max to take a few steps back from the still open door.
“You will remain in your room until the end of your cycle,” he rasped, a deeper, thickly accented voice slightly overlaid over his.
“The hell I fucking will! What the shit makes you think you have the right to order me around like I'm one of your peons!” the female soldier fairly exploded, her pale face flushing from her anger and indignation. This outburst caused the powerful, enraged 'No-life King's' powers to fairly burst from him, thick tentacles of pure darkness sprouting out of his shadows and writing in the air. Even the mansion began to shake from the sheer amount of evil power pouring from the ancient creature of darkness.
“Ms. Stone! Alucard! Calm yourselves before the entire Hellsing manor falls down around our ears!” Walter yelled, surprising both of them. When both were looking at him, the exasperated butler heaved a heavy sigh as he pinched the bridge of his nose.
“I will go inform Sir Integra of the current circumstances. Ms. Stone, please just do as Alucard says for now. I'm unsure this old mansion can take much more shaking,” the wizened servant half ordered before he turned his vested back on them and made his way back down the long hall.
Once he was gone, Maxine turned to glower at a now very smug looking Alucard. “Blow it out your ass,” she hissed, slamming the door in his face with a satisfied look.
“Fucking vampires,” she spat bitterly, still glaring at the door as she turned to go into her bathroom. Right now she had a pounding headache and she was going to use her forced downtime to take a nice long soak. Sticking her tongue out at the closed door, the exasperated warrior walked right into something rather solid.
At first Maxine thought she had simply walked into a wall due to her focus on the closed entry until a pair of arms wrapped tightly around her. “It's so good to see you again so soon my pretty one,” came a raspy, all too familiar purr as a scent resembling rotting carrion reached her nose.
“No! How the hell did you get in here! I sure as hell never invited you and neither did Integra!” she screamed, her eye going wide with terror and disgust as she twisted in his iron grip. Every part of her skin crawled at his very touch and yet some part of her that belonged to Michelle was relieved and faintly happy. Displeasure filled her as she became aware of the unwanted affection and she swiped his skull-like face with her sharp nails in an effort to make him release her.
“I am a dhampire, a hybrid my dear. A hybrid unlike any your pathetic organization has seen my precious little one. I am not bound by a lot of the rules pure vampires are bound by,” Radu rattled in a ghastly chuckle as he tipped her chin up with his horrible fingers. Then his loathsome lips were on hers and they disappeared into the shadows just as her door flew open and the cross she had been holding clattered to the floor.
There, in the entryway, stood a seriously pissed 'King of Vampires'; his shadows pouring behind him like billowing smoke. His entirely black eyes glowed an evil red as his long, ebony hair flowed in the air around his head. His very aura sparked with thick, red arcs of electricity as a deep growl ripped from his chest. Bright, whitish red light suddenly exploded from the runes on his gloves as his entire form turned into a mass of living shadows that swarmed with abominations.
Integra, feeling the sudden rush of malevolent power, shot to her feet and fairly ran from her office; toward Maxine's room. If her suspicions were correct, that the entire world was very likely in danger. It had almost felt as if Alucard had broken the seal upon himself to access all of his powers. If he had done that, there was nothing left on the powerful creature to control him; he would be free to do as he pleased. A concept that frightened the heiress to her very soul. In her panic, she never noticed Walter close on her heels; a serious expression on his wizened face as he flashed his wires briefly.
As the pair reached the room, Integra's worst suspicions were confirmed. Maxine's door had been kicked in, both her and Alucard having simply disappeared and her cross laying on the floor in the middle of the room. With a revocation currently active in the room, there was no way that even a vampire as powerful as Alucard could enter and that left only one other unpleasant possibility. “Walter, prepare a search team. We need to find Alucard and replace the runes on his gloves before he manages to save Max. There's no telling what he'll do now that he's broken free,” the femme ordered, her blue eyes holding a grim look as she stared into the empty room. Then she strode into the room and gingerly picked up the abandoned cross she had given the other female.
