It is a pity that the failings of my father were not more closely observed.

You should have paid attention, Sephiroth. For now, allow me to give you some advice.

Problems are best solved by dealing with them in their entirety. Half measures tend only to exacerbate the difficulty.

Mr. Shinra, thank God you have finally recovered.

Your stand was courageous. I regret to not be able to help you but my men were in dire condition at the time. If you require of anything, ask me without delay.

Our conversation was interrupted, but I am Sir Integral Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing. It's an honour. Truly.

[ashenice]

Please, call me Rufus. Anything else sounds too reminiscient of my old man.

I am glad that no one attempted to interfere with him. Had they done so, he might have turned his attention on them.

I would ask only to join with you in your plan to find the keys and, if it becomes necessary, to overthrow Kadmon and his Avatars. I fear I have shirked the responsibility for dealing with Sephiroth for too long.

The please is mine, Sir Hellsing.

As you like, Rufus. Call me Integra, then. How badly are your current wounds?

My plan, in first place, isn't as radical as to destroy Adam Kadmon and the Avatars. But to gather information to protect ourselves and the worlds we love. I agree that an Order is needed and this is that angel's world. Now, that doesn't mean we are subjects to their whims but if their actions aren't unreasonable, we don't have to act violently in return.

The keys and the nature of the angel (then his Avatars) are the first goal. Then comes the protection from power abuse. If things become to worse, an uproar and violent action should be taken. I prefer to avoid the later. I was taken right from a war and I don't believe that is the way to solve conflicts. Negotiation could be open once we have a key or two, I am unsure yet.

Rufus!! ..Gaia.. you're awake.. I didn’t think--I mean I knew you'd--I should have been--Damnit!

You're okay, right? Please say you are?

Listen.. about Sephiroth. I'm taking him away from here.. No one else will have to be hurt by him ever again! I'm sorry I couldn't do much else..

Just don't over exert yourself now, alright? I'll be back when this is all over.

[ashenice]

Sephiroth is my responsibility, Zack. My father's sins, now mine to bear.

Please do not worry yourself over my injuries. They have provided me with the resolve necessary to see this through to its completion.

[zaxissupersexy]

Errr.. Not to be rude, sir. But you're hardly a match for him! Gah-A-andI'mnotsayingyou'reweakoranything!

What happened there in the square.. Should be enough proof to the power he has. If Mr. Valentine hadn't of been there--!

Look you KNOW where I'm going with this, sir. You're a wonderful leader, and you CAN fight.. But he's not a responsibility you can take on your own when you haven't the strength.

Eight years ago.. It's been coming up in my mind so much lately.. History repeats really suck sometimes. I took it as my responsibility as second in command when my leader was incapacitated.. to take care of the situation..

I didn't get to finish the job, sir. And I'd like permission to reclaim my duties..

Please. I don't want to see you die over something as stupid as 'inherited sin'.. Geez if I inherited all my parent's problems, I'd be REALLY screwed!

[ashenice]

You worry yourself unduly. I am dead already.

[sparkleginji]

Mr. Elena's Big Brother Sir! :D You're alright! ♥

[ashenice]

Yes. I suppose that I am.

Elena is here once more. I shall tell her that you are as well.

[demonvalentine]

Do not provoke him, Rufus.

[ashenice]

Forgive me, Vincent. It is not in my nature to accept defeat, and though he is unaware of his victory, I intend to make him pay dearly for it.

[demonvalentine]

This is not a matter of victory or defeat, but of tolerance. You will have your chance, but that chance is not now.

[ashenice]

Neither one of us shall be happy until the other is dead. He has won. But then, so have I.

[holyknightky]

Rufus! It's.. I saw what happened and..

How are you now..?

[ashenice]

I apologize for Sephiroth's exhibitionist leanings, Ky. No one should have had to witness that. I hate to imagine what that must have looked like to observers.

I am... I must be fine, because I feel no pain. Whatever was used to heal me was successful in that regard.

[holyknightky]

It.. isn't something I am not used to, Rufus. You needn't apologise.

..? I am glad you are healed, but.. if you shall forgive me for saying, you seem different.. but it is understandable. You have been through much.

[ashenice]

I am merely resolved now. Before I was weak. I had things to lose. Now my way is clear. Maybe this is some form of peace.
