First Test.

It had only been a week since Walter had officially become a member of Division 13 and had somewhat gotten associated with the others in this group. However one thing that irked him was that their was not one missions.

It was like all supernatural things just decided to stay quite and for his sake he had asked around about certain creatures. Funny thing was when he asked about vampires, he was told they never went out of Romania and were isolationists. That was the biggest buzzkill as he had wanted to earn his own Vampire Hunter title.

He had asked John about werewolves and he was told that they were unaging could live for thousands of years or forever as long as they were not killed. Yet much to his disappointment again, they kept mostly to Europe and most did not cause trouble.

That was just the start to his biggest annoyance as this budget was also crap. What Nathan had said was totally true that their budget was small. As such he and Poppy the red-haired half-devil who looked to be about 25, but was actually already 45 which was quite a surprise for him, were in line at a giveaway.

Not only was it still technically the depression right, but most foods were either charity or MRE's which ended up being better than the stuff that Owen had to eat in the war.

He looked at Poppy next to him and being in line was quite boring. He might have had Walter and Owen's memories, but he was still just a teenager. He took a drag on the cigarette in his mouth and he sighed in boredom.

Poppy looked at him and patted him on the back

"There, their little Walter. It is not so bad as on Fridays John makes some of the best food with this. For a werewolf he is really good at cooking. If you want you can blame the government for our troubles."

He looked at her and took out his cigarettes from his mouth to speak clearly, still had to have manners after all."

"Ok, but why am I here in line? I don't mind, but it looks like I got pushed into the job."

Poppy placed her hand on her chin and got all serious. She tried to imitate the tone that Nathan spoke in."

"According to the words of The General and I quote. *Cough* 'Get Jolly Wally to go with you. He is the new kid and has to pull his weight.' End quote."

Walter had several tick marks on his face while he was shaking in annoyance.

"Damn I hope the war breaks out already."

Poopy glanced at him and pocked him in the ribs.

"What war?"

Walter looked at her and found a way to explain it.

"Well Hitler and his Nazis are not going to stay neutral forever now, are they. Knowing the Europeans I would not be surprised if another war breaks out like the war in 1914."

She frowned and shook her head at the thought. She put her hands around his eyes, picked him up and shook him around. He had to say that she really had a grip on her and was quite tall at 5'11.

"That is bad luck to talk about Walter. What if it comes true?"

He was now off the ground and people were watching them. A few woman were looking at his suit and smiled at them. They thought he was Poppy's son or brother as she looked to be having fun.

"Can you put me down, Poppy?"

She noticed he was off the ground and placed him down. He was just a little over 5'7 which was average. He thought that being as tall as Owen would be too much and he would be happy to just be 6'4 which was fine by him.

He just did not want to be as thin as Walter was and a even balance was better. It was not going to be hard at all, but for now he would stay like this for a few decades if he wanted to.

"Sorry Walter."

He waved his hand and went back to smoking.

"No big deal."

While they talked he kept an eye out for anything supernatural and just his luck he got nothing. He sighed as it was like while this world had supernatural creatures they just did not show up when you look for them.

Did he have to wait till he went to Europe? He just thought a really bad idea and shook his head to ignore that.

'Wait, what if we don't get sent to Europe when the war breaks out? Will I have to sneak over there in a crate? No, that sounds so stupid. I think Alucard once stuffed Seres in a coffin, I do not want that.'

In the end, they got their rations and returned to base. Well, it was more like Poppy used him like a porter which he did not mind. After all, as a butler Walter had to take out the trash from time to time, both living and literal trash.

When they returned Nathan was waiting for them and just for what Walter was waiting for.

"Walter, you are going on your first mission with John and Isabella. In Texas, we got a report of a stray devil for the first time in a while. Of course, Richard will take you guys there. Put those blessed wires to use won't you."

Walter's bored eyes lit up when he was promised a fight. Of course, someone had to pour a bucket of disappointment on his head.

"You will provide support as this is training for Isabella. She is after all only 12 and needs all the training she can get. John, I leave you in charge of this operation."

After John and Isabella who like usual was on his shoulder saluted while Walter gave a monotone cheer.

"Hip hip hurray."

After they placed the food in the kitchen and Richard was waiting for him snapped his finger opening a portal to Texas. Walter wanted to see how Texas was in 1938 as Owen was born in 2032 he was interested how country it was.

Richard smiled and moved his glasses up his brown.

"Alright, let's go."

John, Isabella and Walter all followed behind Richard when they walked in the portal they were in Dallas. Of course, Dallas at this time was just a small town getting built up so when they arrived Richard looked at them.

"Alright, here is the thing for Walter. To find a devil we look for their demonic energy signature which is not hard to find. Isabella you might be young, but you got your parent's inheritance right?"

She nodded and walked up to Walter.

"I can help him feel magic like I did for everyone. Can you kneel, you are tall?"

He kneeled down and a small magic circle appeared on her finger which she poked him on the forehead. The moment the magic entered his brain he felt like his senses got overload which were already very strong.

His silver eyes glowed for a split second and then it stopped, already he could slightly feel the magic in the air. Isabella walked back to John who let her go on his shoulder. He had adopted her when her parents died.

She looked at Walter and smiled.

"Can you see magic now?"

He looked at her and he noticed how magic seemed to be all over the air. People like Isabella, John and Richard were like beacons, while normal people were only fireflies.

"Yeah, so this is magic? Can I learn this?"

She thought about it and gave him a answer.

"You can, but it is not easy. It takes a lot of calculation for human magic. Unlike Poppy who is a devil she can use her demonic energy to use devil magic."

John walked away while he smelled the air.

"I found it, Walter did you?"

John was getting a few glares as not only was he a black man in the deep south he had a white girl on his shoulder. Some of them were thinking of calling the cops, but Isabella snapped her finger causing their minds to go blank.

"Let's find it and get out."

Walter walked past John, but patted him on the shoulder.

"Well let's get to work big guy."

Walter looked at the trails and normal magic was blue, demonic energy glowed red and a small trail was going deep in the city. From time to time, the trail went cold, but Isabella magic and John's werewolf sense of smell could find it.

Walter did not even have to look for it as the closer they got the more it smelled of decay was getting stronger. He took a deep breath and he pulled on his fingerless glovers while John looked at him.

"You said you were made in a lab right? What is that like?"

Walter was technique not lying as Owen was genetical engineered and upgraded so many times he was less human than.

"From the moment of my birth and before my genetics were hand picked of only the strongest humans, animals, and experimental performance enhancing drugs. Add on whatever voodoo they tried to use on me and I am the result."

John, Isabella and Richard all looked a Walter with a bit of pity. Walter waved his hand as it was not his trauma, he just had the memories of that.

"Don't pity me, I am fine. Now, shall we kill this thing?"

They looked at the larger trail and they went forward which meant they were extremely close to it. Walter could even feel the things killing intent, but he was unimpressed.

Isabella snapped her fingers and a bounded field appeared in the large area keeping the isolated. Seeing that reminded him of the spiritual barriers of the Vatican in Walter's world, but better.

"Well time to take out the trash right?"

Walter wires spread through the area in a large area and even a slight vibration went up his fingers. John avoided the wires as they contained trace amounts of silver in their special alloy to deal with vampires and unholy creatures.

"I found you."

Walter waved his hand with a grin and the wires blocked all escape and the stray was forced from his hiding place. It was a mix of a bear, and man while looking like a mutated beast.

The stray roared at them and began to curse then out while snarling like a beast.

"*Growl* Die, YOU WILL DIE!"

HE charged out at Walter and swung his claws at Walter's face, yet a mere movement of his fingers and his wires wrapped completely around the strays arm and started to sizzle.

He clenched his hand and the strays arm was reduced to chucks while the stray roared in pain while the silver and blessing in the wires caused the pain to be even worse.

John waved his hand and punched his hand through the things chest ripping the heart out. He held the still beating heart and he was going to put it in a cooler. They had experiment's on criminals' to see if they could use supernatural genes for super soldiers.

"Richard, we are bringing it back for study. Every stray is a recourse and we don't want to loose out on this genetic material. Walter, good work. Isabella your bounded field is much better than last time. Good work."

Walter stored his wires while he looked at the strays body.

"So this is a devil, kind of weak."

John looked at him and nodded.

"This was nothing but a small fry, a escaped stray. The devils would have put it to death for a slave to escape. Their are much scarier devils that could destroy cities or more. Which is why the General is a asset to this country."

Walter tapped his foot and he was interested just how strong those powerful devils could be. Yet, now he would have to learn magic if he wanted to make some of his favorite weapons. Maybe he could recreate Alucard's near infinite clips.

When Richard opened a larger portal and they dragged the strays body back to base where it would be put on ice and taken to a lab for study. Of course they would get paid for it, and they were not cheap.

If they wanted to make up for their low budget they would not give up any chance to get some money. One thing was that before Walter went back he stole a pack of cigarettes' from a store.

'Consider this payment.'

His first mission was complete and he got to resupply on his cigarettes. Plus he benefited from now being able to see magic. He was interested to learn more about it and he would ask Poppy about devil magic soon.
