Alucard decided it had been too long of a time, not to phase through the ceiling right over Sir Integra. Sir Penwood gave a startled movement but the Iron Maiden simply looked up then blew smoke in the vampire's face.

"You're late, report now…"

"Miss Steiger has been dealt some sadness. Her friend Dave Prost, just died. She was on the phone making arrangements," Alucard stated, as he pulled his lips tight across his mouth, like a cat with a feather hanging out of its mouth.

"This is truly sad but not unexpected news," replied Sir Penwood.  "Unfortunately some businesses can not wait. Sir Integra has Walter picking her up and we will do the meeting at 2 p.m. tomorrow. The stone tablet needs to be seen too."

"Of course, until tomorrow at 2pm," Sir Integra stated.

When Penwood left, the Iron Maiden noticed Alucard was sitting in a chair, legs crossed and right hand with his cheek resting on it. He was sure his Master had more to say.

"Servant have you been behaving?"

"Why of course Master, why would you ask?" He truly looked like the cat that ate the canary, just no feather hanging out of the mouth this time.

"You haven't been snacking on any of the tourists have you?" She accused him immediately.

"Sir Integra, as you have stated it isn't good for business nor is bad press," the No Life King replied.

"And you have not been trying to get in Miss Steiger's pants?"

"She tends to wear dresses or skirts more if you must know," as Alucard feigned an innocent look, then completed it with blinking his eyes, as children do when they want something.

"Since the young lady is coming tomorrow, stay in your room and rest. I am concerned you will go into a bloodlust. I know for a fact you have been up alot during the day."

"As you wish, though I suggest I return to her as Baskerville. She was quite distraught since David died in her arms," the smug vampire stated.

"You said she was some kind of immortal, I wouldn't think she wouldn't be all that upset..." Sir Integra said, as she exhaled some smoke.

"It appears, she is quite fond of you humans...silly creature that she is." he chuckled softly.

" Alucard you were human once," replied Sir Hellsing.

The Unholy King nods his shaggy head,"Why yes, Master but for only a short time, I have been the No Life King for much longer."

With smoke that ros3 from her mouth,"Go now servant, I will send Walter in the morning to pick Miss Steiger up. See that you are back before then."

Alucard bowed and then actually used the door for once. He grabbed some blood from the refrigerator. Seras Victoria ran up to Alucard excited.

"Master I have missed you! Pip is my witness, I have been working on my aim, using my vampiric eye as you taught." Seras Saud almost sing song like.

"Hmmm, I'm not sure that Frenchie is a worthwhile witness though..." The elder vampire hummed.

He directs his full attention on his fledgling.

"Police girl," he paused for a moment and as expected, Seras jumped from the sound of his voice "Are you still into those god-awful vampire movies? I hear there is one called Fright Night. The vampire is named Jerry and he's a 'snacker'..."

Alucard stood a moment longer, with his head tilted and grinned like a shark.

"Forgive me Master but that is a really creepy look, even for you, " Seras replied as she looked down to the floor.

"Police Girl I am the No Life King, I am supposed to be creepy," and with a maniac laugh, he morphed into Baskerville then left the mansion.

A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often serves simply as something to aim at."
