A Formal Visit (Hellsing people)

[Maelys Knight]

[Allona, Kaley]

"Is it even worth our time coming here? This isn't anywhere near where I investigated last time..." "Due to the nature of this investigation, it's important to get as many accounts to it as we can. This Hellsing group seems to be well known around Hallowton. Besides, my brother said he didn't want either of us getting killed in the battle."

Allona knew that Kaley was only complaining because she wasn't fighting against the demon army. Maelys sent them to continue the investigation that they were originally sent for, but also wanted to make sure Kaley wasn't killed. Their investigation led them to the Hellsing manor, a very well known faction in Hallowton, where they might get some information on the source of energy.

Allona walked up to the large double doors and knocked twice. "Odds are they're going to have us do something for them before telling us anything..." She rolled her eyes before folding her arms, standing behind and to the side of Allona.

Sebastian looked up from the silver he had been in the process of polishing, gazing out of the large window before him. He was currently in the kitchen, and the scent of silver polish as well as the wet metal permeated the air around him. To a human, they wouldn't have smelled much if they entered the kitchen; but his nose was finding the stench nearly overpowering. That was the main problem he had with constantly using the soft metal. It had a displeasing smell when it was was gently surface washed with water and soap; and then the polish... He was grateful for the distraction which had drawn his attention; the sound of the iron gate opening and closing. He could see two figures approaching, and he raised his eyebrows in confusion. There had been no meetings scheduled today. Perhaps they were refugees...?

The butler turned away from the counter; he would finish the job after the guests were seen to. He rolled his white tuxedo shirt sleeves down his arms; and pulled his gloves back on. His tailcoat was neatly folded and rested on a chair; he retrieved it on his way to answer the door and put it back on; attaching the final button as he reached the main entrance. He waited for a few seconds; and then the knock came. He didn't waste a moment, pulling the doors open as he heard what one of them said. That pricked his curiosity. What did these visitors want to ask about? The demon smiled pleasantly down at them as the door was fully opened. "Welcome to the Hellsing manor. I am Sebastian Michaelis, the head butler of this estate. I am at your service." He said as was custom, bowing to the visitors as he stood back to grant them entrance. "Please, come in and make yourselves at home; we pride ourselves on hospitality. I shall prepare refreshments should you have need of them." He would wait until they entered, then close the doors behind them. Immediately asking about the purpose for their visit was something he considered quite rude; so he would allow them to get comfortable before requesting that information.

[Allona, Kaley]

To the surprise of both women, the doors opened almost immediately after she knocked. Kaley suddenly felt sheepish, as the man who opened the door may have heard her statement.

"Welcome to the Hellsing manor. I am Sebastian Michaelis, the head butler of this estate. I am at your service."

Allona gave her own bow, stepping through the doorway afterwards, Kaley following right behind. "We thank you in advance for your time."

"Please, come in and make yourselves at home; we pride ourselves on hospitality. I shall prepare refreshments should you have need of them."

"No need, thank you. We don't intend to stay very long. While Allona casually walked into the lobby, Kaley walked over to one of the couches and sat down, keying in a code on one of her gauntlets. To an observant person, there was an almost impossible to see sheen of dark purple hanging around Kaley, but upon her keying in the code, the sheen disappeared.
