INTEGRA LOCKES AND THE

THREE VAMPIRE BATS

Once upon a time, in the cursed woods of Transylvania lived a family of vampires. There was Alucard, the strongest and most powerful of the undead. His sister Girlycard, who was master of cunning and mind manipulation, and their ward Seras, who was master of nothing, yet, but there was always hope. Seras was an odd one for a vampire. She hated hunting and she wouldn't drink blood. She hadn't even grown a full set of fangs yet, because she refused her master's blood. She preferred to remain a servant vampire, and so Alucard and Girlycard treated her as such. Seras did all the cleaning and "cooking" and washing. But as harshly as they treated her, they also protected her as fiercely. Seras feared very little, safe in the fact that Alucard and Girlycard would protect her.

Anyway, it was after Seras had poured out their evening meal into expensive crystal wine goblets that Alucard decided that tonight was the perfect night to go hunting.

"But I just poured out dinner." complained Seras.

"It'll keep." said Girlycard, pushing Seras out the door. "Besides you need the practice."

"But I don't wanna hunt humans." objected Seras.

"And what would you do if Girlycard and I were no longer here?" asked Alucard, as he stood staring at the stars.

Seras thought about it.

"Starve to death." she said, sadly.

"Come on." pressed Girlycard, dragging a reluctant Seras behind her.

Alucard just laughed as he picked Seras up and threw her over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes.

"Master." whined Seras.

"Tonight will be fun Seras. You'll see." he smiled.

Not soon after that, a young woman dressed in a green uniform, with a silver cross tiepin arrived at the three vampires' home. She was tall and angular. She eyes bluer than the brightest sapphire and her hair kissed golden yellow by the sun itself. She smiled wicked as she could smell the scent of death lingering in the air.

"This must be the place." said Integra, as she walked around the large cottage. "Cunning, I would never have thought to look here for them."

Integra Wingates Hellsing, aka Goldilocks, top agent of the Hellsing Wild Creature Control Unit, looked over the Vampire's cottage as she placed sacred signs and spells around the cottage.

"Vampires are supposed to hang out in big dark looming castles." thought Integra, with a chuckle. "Maybe this is their summer home."

The cottage was large, bigger than most average houses. It had a thatched roof and black painted windows and doors. Integra couldn't see in the windows, and she wondered if they could see out. Either way, sunlight wouldn't be getting. Integra did notice something or the lack of something rather. This house had no chimney. But what would vampires need with a fireplace anyway. They didn't cook their food, nor did they need to heat their home. So why have one.

Complete in her sealing of the house with sacred spells, Integra went inside the house.

"Ugh." she complained, as she covered her nose with her hand.

The smell of darkness, damp air, and ancient days now filled her nostrils.

"Wish I had some Fabreeze." thought Integra. "Or even some pine sol with lemon."

Integra pulled out her guns as she went room to room looking for her prey. However, she met with no resistance, not even a guard dog familiar.

"They must be out having someone for dinner. Guess I'll just wait here. They have to come back at sunrise." reasoned Integra.
