Sweet Silver,Bitter Red.

Pars III: Tender gesture

Another evening. It was only today when I realized, I can only find myself awake at night, my new self already used to such a drastic change in sleeping patterns. I was able to bathe, though I hardly noticed a smell, and pretty much soaked in the bath. Curious, I slit my wrist with my nail and I watch the cut heal nearly as fast as my nail went across it. I wanted to know what color my blood was. Was it still that Vibrant red? Or was it some sort of strange alien like color? I lifted my hair and put it in a bun, The weight of it becoming heavier. The rest of my body was well rinsed and I finally make my way out. Sitting on the coffin in my towel, I bring my hand around my hair and make a fist, drying it with the strength in my palm and sliding it down. Easily, the water left my strands and were only damp for a few moments after. I throw on something modest again and make my way to the door, Meeting her.
" Evening." I say first this time. I had no shame in what I did to her. I was learning, was I not? " Evening" She says awkwardly. " Did you..? Did you eat last night..?"
" No." I respond probably as rude as ever.
" Why? I was expecting you.."

" It's hard to do. From eating Solid to liquid is already one thing, but It's blood. It isn't like it's chicken. Drinking..that is going to take some getting used to. I won't have a problem consuming it once I grow less disgusted." I explain to her.

" Well I haven't yet either. Don't get so defensive. No one is challenging you." She remarks.

" Let's make it a competition then. Nothing like a Who is better than who, am I right?"

" Annaia please stop. Why can't we just be friends. We're going to be working together so please."

" My alliance may be with you, but I am only obligated to respond to My master and Sir Integra. I'm sorry, But I don't want to have any other intractions with you. This will be our last outside the field." Leaving her, I walk around to explore the building really. I just wanted to be alone. Suddenly I see a red coat and I instantly prepare my self to fight. Then I hear a familiar Chuckle and I glare.

"No need to make fun of me." I say walking past him, he, following close behind.

" You are always in a bitter mood, Annaia. Accept your fate and move on."

I stop and turn around.

" No disrespect," I start carefully. " But don't you have something to do? You know-- killing? Destroying and what ever else you do?"

" Until Integra says so, No. I do not." His expression the same as mine, annoyed.

" Why follow me? Isn't that Victoria girl around here some place--"

" She's training in the advanced artillery right now. Any more questions?"

" What do you want?" I ask once more. Alucard lowered his eyes to me and I realized, he isn't the one to have an attitude with. " Sir." I add to recover but even that sounded pretty rude.

" Would you rather me observe you from the shadows? Watching your every move?"

" It's more difficult to speak with you.."

" That can be fixed. Talking is always a good way to practice."

" We have nothing in common."

" How do you know?"

" I don't need to." I say, him getting quiet and sighing.

" You are the most difficult woman I've ever met in all my existence."

" Well I'm not going to be budy budy with a man I don't know. You are like those things right? You rape..! Kill and Kill.. Then set fire to everything you see--"
