Comments: Thank you to everyone who reviewed my first Chapter. That was very sweet of you all to be so nice about my first attempt into the Hellsing-verse. Grins And it was so fun too! I'm finding all sorts of mischief with Seras locked up in a cell for a month...but that's a little in the future for you all, so I won't spoil it. I'm not too fond of Integra, but I felt that she was certainly needed in this Chapter. I also read somewhere that she and Seras don't have such a cold relationship in the manga, so I tried to relax their meeting somewhat and perhaps interject a little woman to woman understanding into the mix. In a world of men, perhaps the women-folk should bond, hmm?
Reviews would be wonderful! It means so much to an Author to hear how you liked their Fanfic, and what parts of the Chapter drew your attention. :) Also, if you spot discrepancies, or think that we can improve somewhere, that feedback is very welcome also.

Chapter Two
'Police Girl. Wakey, wakey.' A voice murmured, a soft gloved hand moving down over the skin of her neck. 'It's time to start the game.'
The blonde's eyes opened slowly and she blinked, disoriented. "Huh?" She said, not sure what had woken her up. Her body told her it was evening anyway, so she decided it was time to get up. She rose to her elbows on her mattress, blinking in the darkness. "Hmm...” She licked her lips, tasting the residue of something faintly coppery.
A split-second later, her mind identified it with blood and everything came flooding back. Stevens! The fight! She bolted up and promptly smacked her head on the top of her lid. "Ouch!" She moaned, crouching. She felt around for her remote and the bed rose.
"Great start to the evening!" Seras said as her room came into view, lit with candles. She climbed out of bed and padded over to the table in her underwear, yawning. Sir Integra would want to talk to her, of course. She winced as she remembered how violent she had been to her soldier. Oh yeah, the woman was going to tear strips off of her.
"I was provoked." She muttered darkly, trailing a hand over the table surface, ignoring her blood pack as usual. She was starting to feel really weak, especially after yesterday's fight, but she refused to drink. She wasn't like master. She wasn't going to lose her humanity! Her clothes were also lying neatly over the back of one chair, ready to be put on.
Seras rubbed at her eyes and ran a hand through her messy blonde hair and then she paused, something flashing into her mind. Long black razor-sharp claws ripping into soft flesh... With a gasp, she quickly felt at her face, frantically feeling at the skin and expecting to feel great rents. Nothing! "What? That's just impossible." She exclaimed, feeling nothing but smooth unblemished skin.
The blonde raced to her mirror and stared into it in shock, the color ebbing from her skin as she paled. Impossible. There was just no way she could have healed that quickly. Only master had that sort of regenerative power! "Am I more powerful than I thought?" Master had never really explained about how her vampiric powers worked. Could it be that she had healed that fast? Calming, she thought about it. Maybe...
But a nagging thought told her that she was wrong. She was half-starved and even more weakened by the battle. Seras blinked as she stared at her refection, recalling something else. She'd been brought back by master with blood all over her face and clothes...and...
She spun to face the table, red eyes flying wide. The clothes were pressed and clean. She knew Walter's handy-work anywhere! She'd woken in her underwear...and her face was also clean. Her red eyes went wide as she recalled lips moving over her cheeks before everything had gone blank and she passed out.
"No, that can't be right." She said nervously. "Master wouldn't have licked my face clean!" Giggling at her own stupid joke, she picked up the clean uniform and slipped it on. She paused, about to button up the jacket. Still, it remained that her uniform had been on her when she came back to the room, which meant that someone had undressed her!
"What?!" The word exploded from her. The vampire rushed to the door and she almost flung herself into the hall. Five minutes of frantic searching found Walter. "Walter, who undressed me?" She demanded, grabbing at his lapels.
He blinked at her. "I thought it was yourself, Miss Victoria." He said, surprised. "I found your bloody clothing outside your door in a heap and washed them for you."
She let go of his jacket slowly, rapidly thinking back. She couldn't have undressed herself, could she? Last thing she remembered was Master and then-nothing. Master had undressed her?! Seras slowly flushed red, her heart beginning to thud hard in her chest. Her Master had seen her in only her regulation cotton panties? Oh my god. Humiliation filled her and her hands went to her cheeks. "Oh no." She groaned.
"Miss Victoria? Are you quite alright?" The man asked in concern. The young girl was acting very strange. Then again, she had almost killed someone. He put a hand on her shoulder hesitantly. "I heard what happened and I understand completely." He said in a gruff tone.
"Huh?" She said intelligently, peeking at him from between her hands. He'd heard about Master undressing her? Her eyes went wider.
"That soldier had no right to provoke you like that. We have it all on tape, never you mind." The butler said in a steely tone. "Sir Integra watched the entire affair."
"She what?" Seras squeaked in horror. Oh god, she was so fired! But why hadn't Integra ordered her off the compound by now? Or left her to fry in the sun?
Walter frowned. "I don't pretend to know Sir Integra's mind, though I have known her since she was a child, but I believe that she is entirely on your side with this one, Seras Victoria." He said, using her full name with a gentle smile. "Her expression was quite fierce as she watched-" He broke off and coughed. "But that isn't for me to say." He straightened. "Sir Integra wanted you to report to her as soon as you emerged from your room."
"Er-right!" Seras said, startled. Sir Integra was on her side? She'd watched?! Okay, this she had to see for herself. In a daze, the vampire made her way through the manor, for once not seeing the wide berth everyone was giving her was even wider than usual. And that their expressions were now tinged with slight respect and even a little of the fear they regarded Alucard with.
"Come in, Agent Victoria." Sir Integra called out when the knock came on her study door.
Seras entered and saw her Master's master sitting behind her large desk as usual, surrounded by stacks of paper, her glasses resting on her nose. She was subjected to a cool stare for a long moment before being asked to sit in a chair that had been place there. How unusual. Sir Integra's study was usually devoid of chairs and Seras had always been made to stand before the huge desk uncomfortably. The vampire looked for her master, but could not see him anywhere.
"I asked Alucard to be absent from this one." Integra said dryly. "Considering the circumstances, the dratted creature was too damned smug for his own good!" The elegant blonde woman lit up a cigar and frowned through the smoke. "His behavior last evening after the fight was beyond bearable when reporting to me. I had to order him from the compound before I had him staked out to wait for the sunrise."
"Smug?" Seras echoed, sitting in front of the desk and fiddling with the edging on her skirt. She eyed the older woman warily and wondered what was going to be said. Despite Walter's words, she still felt what she had done was grounds for dismissal. She blinked at the rest of Sir Integra's speech, wondering why Master was acting so strange. Was it just her, or was he acting unlike himself since last evening? Acting smug and unbearable to Sir Integra over the Childe he'd previously ignored? Licking Seras' face and undressing her when she was unconscious? She flushed at that last thought.
"Oh yes." The blonde woman said, placing the cigar down on the ashtray. She sank back in her chair and crossed her legs, fixing Seras with a stare. "He was fairly crowing with delight that his protégé had finally shown her true colors, as it were."
"I am so sorry." The girl said in a hushed tone, looking unbearably ashamed. "I don't know what came over me."
"And it's for that reason alone I haven't had you destroyed." Came the chilling reply.
Seras' head jerked up, her red eyes shocked.
"I don't let my vampires go around maiming and killing, Agent Victoria as well you know. The blood bags aren't for show. Even Alucard knows he isn't to feed from a human without explicit instructions from myself" The Hellsing heir went on, tapping a finger on the table rhythmically. "Protect and serve, Seras Victoria." She murmured.
"I know. I was provoked." Seras said, sighing. "He...he grabbed my-"
"I saw." The woman said icily. "I saw it all. Which was why I chose not to interfere. I was impressed, I must say, by your self-restraint."
"My...my self-restraint?" The blonde said, licking her lips. She was confused. Her eyes flittered about the room, taking in all the books lining each wall.
"You were weak from being half-starved, but you also did your best not to harm a human. If it had been Alucard, he'd have snapped that man in half like a twig." Integra said ironically.
"He would have." Seras giggled, and then stopped when she remembered who she was talking to. "Umm-I don't know what happened later on. I sort of went-"
"It's called going berserk." Sir Integra said clinically, picking up her cigar again. "When you tasted his blood, it set off certain, shall we say, instincts inside of you. A vampire’s base instinct called a blood-lust."
"I see." Seras murmured. So that was what it had been. "I couldn't control it. I saw into his thoughts too and it enraged me more."
"Oh?" The older woman leant forward. "Tell me, what was he thinking? I saw your face change, but I couldn't see why you threw him down like that"
How strange to be having this conversation like this, Seras thought. Integra was almost-nice? Almost human. Certainly not acting like the ice-queen she'd always appeared to be. Was this who Walter and her master saw when they were around her? "He was thinking I was an easy lay." She said bitterly. "He'd challenged me for that date for a fuck. He heard somewhere that vampires were the best fucks in the world."
"Ah." Sir Integra Hellsing frowned deeply. "I see. Yes, that would infuriate any woman." She sighed. "But it remains that you almost killed him. I got the medical report last night after Alucard put you to bed." She paused as Seras turned red in the face. "What is it?"
"Nothing." Seras muttered, reluctant to tell her boss that her master had undressed her. Certainly it wasn't something in their contract and it would have gone beyond the bounds of propriety. A slight frown pulled at her brows as a flash popped into her head again from the night before. Master's face coming closer, darkness rushing in and then the feel of hot lips on her face. Had Master licked the blood off? No, it couldn't be! But, she didn't remember cleaning herself off at all and those gashes she'd given herself couldn't have possibly have simply disappeared.
She wondered suddenly if Master had healed her...with his...
Her fingers clenched hard in her lap and her heart started to beat uncomfortably. "Sir Integra?" She asked nervously.
"Yes?" The lady asked curiously, possibly seeing the expression on Seras' face change to anxiety.
"Er...would you happen to know...does vampire saliva have...healing properties?" The blonde asked tentatively, feeling around her idea. If she was right, then-
"Why, yes." Integra said, surprised. "How on earth did you learn that one so early on in your training, or did Alucard let that one slip?"
Seras gawked at her, face going as red as a tomato. Master had licked her face clean! Oh my god! She was right. She hadn't healed herself with her regenerative powers. Her hands went to her cheeks and she shook her head back and forth, dimly in shock. He'd licked her face clean of blood while she slept and it had healed her cuts. What did she think about that? Was that yucky or...
She blinked... it was actually quite disturbing a thought, Master’s lips moving all over her sleeping face.
Near her mouth-
"Agent Victoria!" Integra snapped.
"Yes, Ma'am!" Seras straightened, blinking.
"Pay attention, if you please. Stevens has three broken ribs, a fractured leg, a broken ankle, a broken collarbone, a broken jaw, every bone in his hand crushed and minor blood loss." The woman's stern face had reappeared. "If you had not been restrained by Alucard and the other soldiers, you would have killed him."
"I'll leave the Hellsing Organization, Sir Integra." Seras said miserably, getting to her feet.
"Sit down!" Integra barked. "I did not dismiss you, Agent Victoria."
"Yes, Ma'am." Seras sank down again in abject misery.
"I don't want you to leave. But I am punishing you." Integra said more gently. "Stevens is also being reprimanded." she added. When the vampire blinked at her, she smiled grimly. "Oh yes, I don't let that kind of behavior slip. He will serve his punishment, and then he will be leaving us permanently."
"You're killing him?" Seras stared at her boss, mouth falling open. Okay, so Sir Integra could be ruthless, but to knock a guy off for man-handling the staff?
"Not that permanent!" The woman said smiling.
Whoa, she could smile? Seras blinked and found her mouth was open. She closed it and smiled back hesitantly. "So what is my punishment?" She asked tentatively.
"Confinement to quarters for a month. There will be some duties, of course. You will not be idle." Came the answer.
"A month?!" Seras almost howled, leaping to her feet. "I'll go batty, Sir Integra."
"I can make it a year," The Hellsing heir said coldly, eyes chill as an iceberg. "You are a vampire, so a month should be a walk in the woods."
"I only just became one," The girl protested, slumping back into her chair and moaning. "I'm not old and musty like Master is!"
Integra's lips twitched and she and Seras almost laughed as it crossed their minds that Alucard was probably listening.
"Look, can you give me two days?" Seras pleaded, leaning her elbows onto her knees. Her red eyes became puppy-dog like. "I want to stock up on stuff."
"What sort of stuff?" Integra said. Then she frowned at the girl disapprovingly. "Are you trying to barter with me, Seras Victoria?" She said.
"Er-" The vampire blushed. "No? But see, if I'm confined, I'll need things."
"Walter can get them."
"Personal things." Seras stressed.
Integra sighed and pressed a hand against her forehead, feeling a headache coming on. "Walter is quite used to getting those sorts of things, I can assure you." She replied.
Seras gaped. "Really?" She said, awed. "Isn't that sort of..."
"Girly?" Integra said, eyebrows lifted sardonically.
"Ehehehe." The vampire girl said sheepishly. "I was going for really embarrassing or personal, but yeah, girly will do."
"He's used to it" Integra stressed.
"I'm not!" Seras growled, baring her teeth. Integra's eyes narrowed warningly and the vampire quickly put a hand over her lower face. "I forgot my teeth! Really." she winced, covering her mouth.
"Hmm." The slender woman said thoughtfully, letting it slide. She was starting; it seemed, to regard Seras as a brat. Well, it was better than a half-starved useless vampire. Seras sighed. "Very well, two days, but then-"
"Can I be confined to the house, not the room?" Seras asked tentatively.
"Get out of my study this instant!" Sir Integra shouted, pointing at the door.
Seras scrambled to her feet and bolted for the door. "Thank you." As she left, she saw her master materialize out of the wall.
"That went well." he said with sardonic amusement to Integra. "You sure showed her, Master."
"Shut up, Alucard."
The blonde closed the heavy door and leant against it for a moment, listening.
"A moment, Alucard." Integra said, obviously halting the vampire's leaving.
"Yes?"
"I wonder if you might explain to me your recent actions."
"My actions? Whatever do you mean?" He said in amusement.
"You've changed this last day, Alucard. I know you well."
"That you do, Lady Hellsing." The vampire said sardonically. "You and I know each other...well."
"Don't presume to know me, vampire."
"I still see that little girl, defying her uncle with that little toy gun." Alucard said, voice sing-songing in an irritating way. "Oh so brave, with fire in her blue eyes-and her newly released servant standing by her side hungering for blood."
"I won't speak of that day!" Sir Integra said sharply. "We are speaking of your recent changes, Alucard. Your entire manner has changed."
"How so?" The vampire master said almost curiously.
Seras held her breath, also wondering. She had noticed the change too, but had not connected it to anything. Master had changed. How strange that Sir Integra had been the one to pick up on it, when Seras had only just noticed it in the back of her mind.
"Your bearing is more mocking, more unpredictable, more unbearably smug and yes dark. I've never seen you this way in all the years I've known you." The woman said, bringing her hand down on her table hard. "I want to know what you're up to, Alucard. As your Master, I demand it. Have you been leaving this place at night for your own amusements? Do I need to strengthen the wards upon you?"
"Most certainly not, Master." Alucard said, musing. "Something...caught my attention. Oh yes. Something quite irresistible!" He went on in a rough tone, hints of something dark in his voice.
"I see. Something in this house...then-but you know I don't allow that sort of thing." She was cut off.
"Do not concern yourself." He said, the smirk clear. "It will not go beyond a certain point. Master does not know everything there is to know about vampires. But with an old vampire like myself, it takes a very...special kind for a bond of the type you are thinking. It will never happen in your lifetime and perhaps not in mine. I have lived very long and have not met one who is my match."
"Perhaps your standards are too high, Alucard." Integra said lightly.
Seras frowned, her head against the wood of the door. What were they talking about? Was Master looking for someone? What sort of bond was he talking about exactly? And who in the house had caught his attention? Oh dear, she hoped it wasn't Stevens he was going to do something to. She's already pretty much pulverized the guy-even if he had deserved it. But still, if that was it, the rest of the conversation made no sense. She was so confused!
"No, I don't believe so. This world I live in has changed too much. As you said once, Integra, they don't make vampires like they used to." Alucard said in a hard voice. "Master, as much as I enjoy our conversations. This one is rather of a private nature and frankly none of your business, so keep your pretty little nose out of it." The vampire went on coolly.
Integra and Seras both gasped in shock.
"Alucard! Remember to whom you are speaking!" Sir Integra shouted.
"How could I forget?" He murmured. "Be careful. The walls have ears." He said cryptically and then there was silence.
'Police Girl, I thought eavesdropping was a deadly sin?' His voice said into her mind silkily. 'Did you enjoy the show? I was unfortunately a little distracted by my Master or I would have noticed you earlier.'
"Master!" Seras whimpered as his mind thrust into hers without warning, spearing through her every thought without mercy. She gritted her teeth, trying not to scream. Then the probing gentled and withdrew, leaving her gasping for breath and with a terrible headache. What an earth had she done to deserve that and what had master been looking for? He'd been inside her mind for the second time in twenty-four hours and she was beginning to wonder if he'd really made such a good choice in making her a vampire if it was so easy to invade her head that way.
'Sometimes you're as innocent as a baby.' Alucard chuckled at her, no longer angry. Whatever he'd been looking for, he'd been satisfied. 'You hear things, but it never makes sense to you, does it, Police Girl? You must remind me to train you in vampire lore some day. As it stands, I won't need to punish you after all for listening in, since you didn't understand a word of it.'
And then his mind was gone, leaving her even more bewildered. Exactly what was it about his conversation with Sir Integra that he'd not wanted her to understand? Seras' mind was in chaos as she thought back over it, but she couldn't figure it out. Drat the man!
"Very well." The Hellsing heir said to Alucard's previous question, unaware of the silent battle that had gone on. "But if you get out of hand, I will not hesitate to destroy you. Your powers and darkness have been restrained for a reason."
"I feel the love in the room, Master." Alucard said with heavy irony. "I'll bid you goodnight."
Seras bit her lip and quickly slipped away from the door, running down the hall as silently as she could. What on earth had they been talking about? Something in the manor had caught master's interest? Someone?
A brief surge of jealousy caught her unawares and she blinked. "Huh?" She said. Why would that bother her? Master had never really paid any attention to her anyway. She did wonder what it was that had made his personality change so much. So, that explained his weird behavior lately. Well, she'd just put up with it and ignore him if he got too unbearable. Meanwhile, she had only two days to make her room livable enough for a month's confinement!
Seras winced again as her head throbbed. "Ugh, ouch. Master, why did you have to do that?" She moaned, touching her fingers gingerly to her temples. "Now I need some aspirin!"
