Adrian was pleasantly dizzy, the blood loss giving her an ethreal state of mind. She woozily sat up, the world around her blurring in and out of focus, and every sound she heard almost seemed kind of flat. As if she was encased in a small metal box, even though she saw that she was still in the same corridor. Her hand slid a little in what she saw was a pool of her own blood. That certainly explained as to why the world was tilting like a ship at sea. She figured that Walter knew that her body couldn't make up its own blood, and simply laid back down, waiting for the medical team to arrive, or something to the sort.
Of course, that went out the window when she heard an explosion rock the building. Her ears were ringing, and even from here, she felt the shockwave of the explosive shaking the floor beneath her. "Awww... Damnit..." she cursed, and tried sitting up again. She tried, and she failed, her head hitting the hard floor. So much for that. She wasn't dumb, she knew what was going on. The man in the green jacket must have been sent by her uncle, knowing that they would probably bring her to have it checked, and when it was checked, it blew up. It was an attempted hit. But, being in a state as she was, there was nothing she could do about it... But she knew Hellsing's policy. They'd want to question her before outright killing her. Hopefully, she'd get a chance to explain.

It didn't take Dauru long to get to where he'd left Adrian, slightly amazed she hadn't tried to run on him before shrugging slightly to himself. 'I have been given orders to detain you with whatever force would be required for taking part in an attempted hit upon the Hellsing hq, you don't have to say anything but anything you do say will be used against you,' was all he gestured even as he slipped into his room to pick up his sub machine gun. 'I'm sure you can use your own blood to make yourself something to help you to walk with so if I were you I'd get to moving'

Adrian knew when to talk, and when not to. This was one of the latter. Not only did he have the advantage in almost every way, but she was being suspected of almost everyone in the building right now. If she tried anything, she would die. Simple as that. So, instead of making a snide remark or trying anything, she closed her eyes and shaped what little blood she had into the shape of a regular cane. She used it to push herself up, making the pool of blood underneath the cane so that it didn't slip. She steadied herself, feeling extremely lightheaded. She nodded wordlessly at Dauru, waiting for his lead.

Dauru took the lead, though only by half a pace, no where near trusting her. To be honest he hated stepping foot in the dungeons, it all seemed too closed in, but... orders were orders. He wasn't one to argue with them in this case. He'd have rather killed her out right but... Hellsing had to obey its standard procedural protocal.

Adrian followed Dauru toward the dungeons, knowing where this would probably wind up. She'd get questioned, possibly tortured, interrogated, and after that either get a major lecture or executed. Truth be told, she was ready for either at this point. She'd be lucky to see her next birthday, the way she was going through life, and how much she had basically just lost the trust of everyone inside the building. She'd seen it before. If she lived through this, she'd get slowly worse and worse contracts, her connections with the building dissolving bit by bit, and eventually, she'd just not wake up one morning. She wobbled a bit on her makeshift cane, and continued falling in step behind Dauru with nary a peep.

Dauru pushed open the door to the basements, well what were now known as the basements, they'd originally been dungeons. It didn't take him long to find an empty dungeon that was unlocked and unused and used a motion of his gun to give the silent order.

Adrian opened the cell door with her free hand, and stepped inside. Dark, dank, and completely contained. She hobbled inside, and allowed the cane to turn into liquid form again, forcing her to slap her back up against the wall just to stay upright. She looked over at Dauru, a frustrated, but not completely angry, look in her eyes. "Let's just get this overwith. Dragging it on longer than the need be just wastes both our time." she grumbled, her expression as blank as a sheet of paper.

'I've only been ordered to guard you until one of my superiors gets down' was all he gestured in response. He himself was unable to lean against the door frame, well he could but it took him friggen ages to ensure that the doorframe itself would rest down the center of his back out of the way of his wings. So he kept himself from leaning, instead staying upright, watching her.

Walter strode towards the dungeons. he had left shortly after the medic had tied the wound on his shoulder. The pain was still there though... "Damnit" walte thought to himself, never has Hellsing HQ been succesfully bombed before this, there must be something going on. An information leak maybe? Or possibly even a traitor.....? there had been many new recruits recently, so it was propable that something would happen. But that's the risk he had taken.
He was almost at the dungeons, it took longer than normal due to the wounds. "I just hope that things haven't heated up too much..."

Dauru hadn't moved an inch, just keeping himself in a position it would be near on impossible for Adrian to get past him to escape. He heard Walters voice echoing ahead giving him some indication that finally someone superior was on there way. good he thought to himself, hating every mere second he spent in the dungeons.

Walter arrived at the dungeons, seeing Dauru standing at the door of one of the cells. Relieved to see that he didn't look like a battle had ever even taken place. Then Adrian should be at least in some condition...
"Dauru, Adrian's inside?" Walter looked into the cell and saw a bloody Adrian leaning to a wall. She looked terrible, even worse than he himself did. And somewhere in him walter felt pity for this poor girl...
"Dauru, please leave the two of us alone. Go back to the examination room and tell the staff to send the medics here. After that you can leave." Walter patted Dauru on the shoulder, turned away from him, closed the cell door and turned towards Adrian. "Now, I'll ahve you tell me everything."

Dauru gave a low grumbling growl. As far as he was concerned it was her own stupid fault she was in such a state. But again, rolling his eyes as he thought it, orders were orders. He darted off to give the instructions, grateful to be out of the dungeons.
He obliged with Walters orders, and not knowing what else to do headed back to his own quarters.

Walter heard how dauru left, growling as usual. He could understand Dauru's intention, but it was more beneficial to have Adrian in somewhat reasonable shape.
"Now, Adrian. I would like to hear everything. Everything that you might know about this package. Who might have sent it? Why did the contact you? I do not wish to harm you any more than you already are... so it would be in your best interest to answer truthfully."

Adrian almost flipped off Dauru again when he walked away, but kept her pride tied down. Walter was right in front of her, anyways. "My best interest, at the moment, is not dying. If you want the truth, then I'll tell you what I already told you. Someone in a green jacket gave it to me and demanded I bring it to Dauru. He wouldn't let me in until I did. I just figured he was someone who outranked me, so, I carried out my orders." she explained, and propped herself up by her shoulder so she could face Walter completely. "Odds are, he was trying to target Dauru... I'm very new here, I barely know anybody, so he probably knew I wouldn't know all of the staff yet and assume that it was an order. I'm just a bystander here, sir, I didn't attempt any attack. If I was, I wouldn't have delivered the package myself."

Hmm... She sayd that she has no idea whatsoever who was behind the attack... It is a high possibbility that she is lying, But she does make a good point in one thing... the fact that it was intentional to use her. And that Dauru was the target...
"So you are saying that whoever was behind this attack had detailed information on our personell. Knowing you were a new recruit and had knowledge of Dauru." Walter shifted around the cell a bit. "Next question: Have you told anyone that you work for Hellsing?"
