Groaning in slight discomfort the new bride rolled over stopping when she realized a massive weight was holding her red tinted hair in place. Peeking through her unruly bangs the 20 year old smiled seeing her husband's pale face inches from her own. The only problem was that he was also on her hair which had grown since first meeting him. Slipping a hand under his bare shoulder she lifted his dead weight enough to tug her tresses free. Continuing what she was doing the silver eyed female flinched feeling an unfamiliar pain in her middle. That was to be expected though even with how gentle Alucard had been. Finding the clothes she had stashed beside the bed before she had been whisked away to get ready for her wedding, the girl pulled her basketball shorts up, quickly slipping her shirt over her head. Leaning over she patted Alucard's cheek grinning when a blurry crimson eye cracked open. "You can move to your coffin now, honey. It's well past 10 in the morning." Rolling sleepily to his feet, naked mind you, the vampire trudged over to his own personal kingdom disappearing into the darkness within before the lid closed. Shaking her head Ari wondered if Alucard had actually been aware while he did that. Sure her Mate wouldn't be getting up for a good 7 to 8 hours at least the hacker walked up the stairs pushing the heavy metal door open with ease. Taking the time to peek in all the doors on the first basement level she concluded that yes it really was a five story mansion. Every room was ready to be used should the need arise. Shifting the painting blocking the entrance to the above ground levels she rolled her shoulders. A shower was in order she just couldn't reach the torch to open Alucard's bathroom door. She'd have to get a stepping stool if nothing else. After that she'd ask Cole to take her to town, she hadn't really talked to the soldier since coming back from the past and that was nearly a month ago.

Half an hour later she shut the door to her own room leaving a trail of water droplets behind her as she searched for her blond friend who had declined her wedding invitation. The female really hadn't expected to see him there but it still made her feel a ping of something, she still wasn't very good at describing emotions sadness was her best bet though. Running a finger down Salim's feather she inhaled, the tiny dragon had been curled up on her pillow when she'd opened the door. Realizing she really didn't know Cole's scent at all the girl thought it best to try the shooting range outside the manor. Pausing when sunlight warmed her face she hummed, she loved Alucard but it was really cold down in the dungeon and he didn't have any body heat to share. Feeling the violet eyed dragon coil around her neck she waved to the other soldiers that were standing beside the range door. Ducking inside the raven haired hybrid watched the blue eyed soldier unload a full clip of ammo before tapping him on the soldier. Jumping slightly the blond spun around.

"Ari what're you doing here?" Tilting her head to the side she raised an eyebrow.

"I kinda live here now, ya know? I was wondering if you could take me to town I need to pack a few things and pick up a few things." Looking from her to the clock he smiled, even if he wasn't completely happy about her choice in life partners he still held a special place in his heart for her whether she knew it or not.

"Sure, I'm supposed to train for thirty more minutes but after that I'll take you." Nodding she wondered over to the spot beside him pulling her gun from the holster tucked under the back of her shirt ejecting the clip full of silver bullets and sliding a normal magazine in.

"Loser buys breakfast?" Giving a stiff nod the Hellsing soldier squared his shoulders the raven doing much the same.

Smiling around the light and fluffy eggs in her mouth Ari hummed in delight licking a fang out of habit once she'd swallowed. Reaching for the bottle of syrup to re-cover her pancakes the same time the baby blue eyed male across from her did she blushed jerking her hand back as his brushed against hers. Clearing his throat Cole scratched his stubble covered cheek. "So you and the blood sucker tied the knot yesterday, huh?" Taking a long gulp of her orange juice she nodded. "I guess I don't have to ask if he turned you then, since you're still eating human food." Scowling she tossed a piece of sausage at him, the hybrid wasn't one to waste food but she had only ordered it for Salim and the dragon had already eaten his fill.

"Why does everyone assume he's going to change me?" Picking at her plate more than anything now she pushed it away. It smelled good but the taste was a little off. "He regrets his choice, and it is partially my fault. He renounced his place in heaven because he hadn't found me yet. If he wanted to change me at all do you think he would've done that?"

"Zo there iz more to zhe monster than a monster." Yelping the silver eyed female spun around gun firmly planted between the cat-boys eyes before she knew what she was doing. Grinning he disappeared, reappearing beside her in the booth. Sensing another aura moving closer she groaned, great the albino werewolf was here too. Holstering her favorite Christmas present she tapped Cole's own 9mm down towards the table. She didn't trust these two Weres yet but openly having firearms was bound to draw unwanted attention. Scooting closer to the cat eared boy so the white haired male would have room she blushed realizing he needed more room than she had made. Being sandwiched between the two Germans she fidgeted with her t-shirt. Rubbing a hand down his face Cole sighed, it was always something with this girl.

"Who the hell are they?" Wiggling around she tried to make herself smaller.

"The big one is Hans and the cat-boy has a really difficult name to pronounce so I adoringly call him Kitty. I don't know if he'll let you do that though." Ears twitching the youthful male let his eyes roam over the blond on the other side of the table.

"My name iz Schrodinger." Pushing his plate back Cole stood.

"I think it's time we go. We still have a lot to do." Looking up at the pink eyed male blocking her way Ari stuttered.

"E-Excuse me please." The wolf was un-nerving, he'd been staring at her since he sit down and he hadn't blinked. Moving silently Hans slid out of the booth nearly dwarfing everyone that stood beside him. Nodding the 20 year old wiggled her fingers in a good-bye wave. Quickening her steps she rushed to the counter throwing a twenty at the hostess. "Keep the change." Catching the blonde's wrist she nearly pulled his arm out of socket as she drug him along.

"Ari! Stop!" Slowing down she glanced back over his shoulder seeing Schrodinger and Hans round a far off corner no doubt following their scent. Seeing the bruises that were already forming on Cole's wrist she let him go.

"I'm sorry; I keep forgetting that my strengths increased over the last few months." Stuffing her hands into her shorts pockets she sighed waiting for the supernatural beings. Eyeing one then the other she wrinkled her nose. "I suppose you're going to follow us so we might as well walk together." Pointing a finger at the ever silent Captain she raised a brow. "And you need to blink." Shifting a little he did blink several times. "There that's better." Feeling his eyes on her again she fiddled with her Black Butler necklace, which also doubled as a tracking device, even though Ryan didn't think she knew. Turning away she ducked into an alleyway deciding to just go to her apartment and pack some stuff and transfer it to the redhead's name. She didn't think he was quiet ready to pop the question yet so he still needed a place to be a guy at. Clearing the maze of streets she started up the metal stairs to her home. Fishing for her keys the silver eyed girl smiled hearing Vladimir's claws click against the door, he was amazingly smart when he didn't act like a giant puppy. Nudging the door open with her foot she laughed when the wolf-hybrid stood up and licked her giving a slow tail wag. Ears perking the black canine turned towards the werewolf before lowering his ears and tucking his tail, clearly a sign of submission. Tapping her dog's head she ran a hand down his back. Breezing past her like he owned the place Schrodinger looked around inspecting everything, even going through her cabinets and fridge.

"Zo thiz iz how zhe middle clazz live? It iz… homey?" Snorting the girl watched Hans sniff take another step then sniff again before nodding and taking a seat on the off white couch Alucard normally took up. It probably was the only place where they could sit comfortably as everything else she owned was made for normal sized humans. Leaning over the back of the sofa the cat-boy grinned baring tiny little fangs. "That iz odd. Zhe Captain really must like your zcent." Both Cole and Ari had stayed rooted to their spots watching the weres move around the 2 bedroom apartment, neither knowing whether it was safe or not to relax. Laughing the omnipresent male flashed beside them. "If zhe Captain wanted you dead you vould be. Ve are no danger to you." Rolling luminous eyes he tapped his chin with a gloved hand. "It vas clever to lead us avay from humans, vithout being overly obvious." Giving a lopsided smirk the raven shrugged.

"I try." Stepping away from the door Ari walked around the couch not missing the way Hans inhaled deeply when she passed. Now she was really happy she'd taken a shower this morning. It was weird seeing someone that wasn't Alucard take up that much space on the sofa or stare at her without blinking for so long. Clearing her throat she curled her finger at Cole. Leading him into the kitchen she slumped against her counter pinching the bridge of her nose. "I have no clue why they're here, but Alucard's gonna be asleep for at least 5 more hours so we'll have to grin and bear it. I'm not smelling any ill intent from them but Vladimir doesn't like Hans." Patting the wolf's head she rolled her eyes. The black canine was used to being the big wolf now that another had ventured in he was feeling unsettled. Casting a nervous glance towards the living room where Schrodinger was still snooping in everything, even going through all the movies lining the shelves Cole patted his jean pockets looking for his phone.

"Shouldn't we call HQ or something?" Shaking her head the raven pulled a box off the counter planning on packing some of her stuff she had left here.

"Why? The only person who can take them is still asleep and will be for a while. They're not really hurting anyone by being here, it just means they're not causing havoc outside. Besides the werewolf likes my scent for whatever reason and given that olfactory is his best sense that's gotta be a compliment." Running hand through her hair Ari sighed. " I've seen them before I just can't remember where…" Amking sure the Weres were behaving themselves the 20 year old ducked into her bedroom to pack some of her things. Cole had taken it upon his self to keep an eye on the unwanted guest while packing photo albums and other small items in the living room. Stuffing all of her clothes into one box she grabbed another to start on her DVD collection.

Humming to herself she tried not to focus to much on the glowing pink orbs that had been trained on her the whole she had been bent over to stack the movies on the bottom shelf. Scowling she looked up at the top row wondering if she would be able to get Alucard to help her pack. Frowning she tucked her hair behind her ears. The vampire probably wouldn't help. He'd already told her to hire someone to do this for her, and offered to buy her a all-new wardrobe. She of course declined and scolded him for being so lazy.

"Well crap." Tip toeing, her fingers could barely reach the edge of the shelf. Yelping as an arm reached over her head to easily gather the Anime there. She jerked away blushing when the werewolf held the movies out for her. Gingerly taking them she made sure not to accidently touch him again, heavens knows how weird it felt to have his body heat against her back. "Thank you." Giving one silent nod he gathered the rest of the cases giving them to her and pointedly ran his hand along her wrist. Apparently werewolves were social creates and would make a point when they felt like it. Stepping away she blushed deeper, remembering to late that the top shelf was also where Ryan kept his Anime, that was in no way suitable for anyone but him to know about. Raising a snowy eyebrow he pushed those DVDs farther back. Taping the box shut Ari smiled.

"Ve must go now." Screaming the 20 year old lashed out nearly scratching the cat-boy with her silver coated nails.

"Would you please stop doing that? I might hurt you on accident." Laughing he bounced over to the Captain.

"I am everyvhere and novhere. Nozhing can hurt me unless I allow it too." Rubbing her temple the female gasped pointing a finger at Schrodinger.

"Like the cat experiments, right? That's why your name sounded familiar, kitty." Grinning the boy nodded before hooking an arm through the werewolf's and they both blinked out of sight. Inhaling deeply she sighed sinking on to the couch next to Cole. "At least their gone now. Alucard won't be happy about this."

Sometimes Ari really hated being right. Not only had the Vampire not been happy but he had nearly shredded the blond that had taken her out of the Mansion to begin with. That had narrowly been avoided thanks to quick thinking and a bribe or two. Now unpacking the third box from her apartment the raven looked up and sighed. Her husband was beginning to pace a trail in her room's carpet.

"Honey, will you please stop walking? Its starting to give me a headache." Baring his fangs in a sneer that would have anyone else running he huffed flopping down on her bed and knocking a pile of books off. "Okay, Alucard I understand you're angry, but nothing happened. I'm fine." Grounding his teeth together he rubbed a hand down his face before turning burning Crimson orbs to her.

"My Mate, do you not realize I have only just forged my bond with you? It is still developing and you allow other creatures near you, close enough to break it if they have a mind to…" Giving up on folding the shirt in her hands she tossed it aside and crawled beside him using his chest as a pillow. Wrapping his arms around her he pulled her until she was straddling him, causing the prettiest blush to dust her cheeks. "Promise you will stay in the manor until the link has solidified?" Nodding she traced a pattern on his vest looking anywhere but his face. Grinning he caught her hand and brought the pale digits to his mouth nipping them playfully. "Surely my blushing bride is not truly embarrassed." Smacking his chest she rolled her silver orbs fighting the ever growing blush coloring her face.

"Give me some credit, I was a virgin until last night. This is still weird." Smirking in a way that had her heart racing the vampire's hands moved to the front of her shirt tugging at the buttons keeping in closed. Letting them sink through the floor into his chamber he chuckled pushing the cloth from her shoulder.

"We shall have to fix that, my love." Her squeal was the only answer as he flipped them over and pinned her to the scarlet covered bed.

Okay I'm alive. For now anyway. I've had major writers block and college… yea I've pretty much been lazy sorry.

Anyway Read and review please.
