Welcome,
I don't own RWBY or Hellsing and make no money from this fan made fiction.

I hope you enjoy the story.
RWBYsing
A lone man stumbled slowly through the forest near Vale, his red overcoat and hat striking contrast with the dark earth below.
"Damn you Abe!" he seethed before his shortening breath hitched. "I was supposed to go out in an epiphany of violence, a dance of gore, a glorious duel; not by some trick of fate!" Spurred on by the sounds of violence that had died out a second ago, he continued in the direction of the likely concluded skirmish. As the man travelled a black trail was left on the ground, bubbling and slowly evaporating into smoke as the vile liquid bled out onto the already shaded forest floor. "Not much time left." He thought, suddenly coming across a peculiar and – to him – wonderful sight.
In front of him lay a freshly broken body sprawled across the large roots of a tree. The body was that of a girl. The girl was still breathing, albeit barely, as blood formed a pool below her, some of it clotting in her nearly black, red hair. She was quickly dying and her unfocused eyes betrayed a look of surprise left over from whatever must have dealt the fatal blow.
The man took note of a scythe laying a few yards away, noticing the loading chamber and ammunition cartridge and dripping blood. Casting his sight back to the young woman in front of him, an idea came to his mind and he smirked: "Beautiful." he breathed out, it once again hitching; but he still managed to finish the last syllable.
"Girl, do you want to live?" The glaze over her eyes sharpened ever so slightly, it was obvious she had lost most of her bodily functions; but the man approached anyway. "Tell me, are you a virgin?" The girls eyes began slowly moving in the direction furthest from the man who held out his arm on top of her. "Take my legacy, young Draculina." He used his other hand and drew across his wrist, causing it to open up while letting a black substance pour out into the girls mouth. He began to laugh maniacally as his form dissipated, the laugh increasing in intensity and volume until the only thing that remained was his clothing.
Ruby awoke from on of her strangest dreams to date, her eyes focusing to see the underside of the forest canopy. "What's a Drac- huh?"she spoke."I don't remember falling asleep." She looked around to see her scythe extended and with blood on it. "Right, I was attacked." came her thoughts: suddenly remembering why she was in the forest, she cried out "Yang, where are you?!" After a minute with no response Ruby got up and went over to Crescent Rose; there was blood on it but she couldn't figure out why. "Oh well." She said aloud, "hopefully yang isn't too far off:" Though she didn't voice the rest of her thoughts. "she owes me an explanation."
Ruby cleaned the blood off before picking up and holstering her beloved weapon so she could continue the search, unsure as to how far she could continue: she was getting thirsty and her own reserves of fresh water were gone thanks to the pouch being leaking from what looked to be a jagged cut.
Mercury Black, the grey haired son of an infamous assassin was just finishing repairs to one of his two prosthetic legs after his fight with arguably the greatest threat to his side's cause: Ruby Rose. The girl was strong, too strong; and it would have ended badly if not for his newest associate Yang Xiao Long. It was her initiation mission, a test to gauge her loyalty: She was to help apprehend her sister for an experimental brainwashing process they were trying out. That's what she was told, though Mercury knew differently, he knew the true intent of the mission.
After Yang's surprise attack, which knocked her sister out cold, he faked a mechanical problem in his leg, the whole farce worked brilliantly:
"Gah, shit!" Mercury spoke.
"What's wrong?" Yang asked, turning to her new comrade.
"One of my legs won't work. I guess your sister nicked something in the fight. Nice job by the way."
"It's no big deal." she curtly replied before going to pick Ruby up.
"Hold on, this is your initiation; we need to test your resolve, that you trust us. I'll be the one to carry her back. Just go on ahead and explain why I'll be late – we are on a schedule here."
Yang had hesitated for a few seconds before her face hardened and she agreed. After he was sure Yang was far enough away he took Ruby's scythe and cut her across from the shoulder to the opposite waste. It was ironic, and not how he wanted to kill her, but the weapon was lopsided and not easy to wield; and from the amount of blood and some guts that spilled out he was sure multiple arteries were cut: she would be dead within minutes if she wasn't already.
Dropping the unruly weapon, he made his way back to the location of the carrier designated to pick everyone up. Once the news was reported they would either have a stalwart ally or an enraged – and dead – enemy. His boss was no fool, that was for sure – this whole scheme was that person's idea. Unfortunately his left leg actually did malfunction; and now he had lost a small screw while trying to repair it. That maniacal laugh had startled him.
After finding the lost screw and finishing the repair he turned to keep moving but almost fell over at the sight before him: Ruby Rose hunched over, likely still hurting from yang's punch but somehow very alive. "It must have been Emerald." he thought. His former ally had changed after one of their meetings and eventually turned traitor; he still didn't know why but maybe those nightmares she started having had something to do with it. Still, his enemy was in front of him and his mission was still unfinished. Being as stealthy as possible he approached and could hear her groaning in pain before plunging his boot's hidden dagger into her back.
Ruby was hunched over, trying to lessen the pain of the extreme thirst she felt. She wasn't sure how, and she had no idea why; but this was the worst pain she had felt in her currently hindered memory. Losing track of time, she wasn't sure how long she could continue and it was likely she was on death's door: that was, until something pierced her from behind. Turning to see the culprit Ruby saw the means to an end, an end to her thirst.
It happened quickly, too quickly. Ruby's cape must have deflected the blow and trapped his leg, which meant Mercury was in no position to defend himself. And whether it was from shock, awe or terror, he couldn't tell; but he didn't react when the young woman in front of him turned and lunged at him. And – almost as quickly – everything went dark.
Sated, Ruby finally snapped out of the trance she was in, relieved the thirst was gone. The young woman yelped and backed away from the corpse in front of her. It was a shade of pale she had never seen before and what confused her more was how he ended up beneath her. Looking around and seeing nobody around, she quickly got up and straightened her back in an attempt to look more dignified in the case someone soon ran into her – though that was unlikely. Looking down she remembered her scroll and picked it up to see it was broken, however the battery was still powering a notification light. "Maybe the others found her." she thought. "Oh well, hopefully uncle Qrow can get me another." Looking around Ruby gave a sigh. "I guess it's time to head back."
Alright, so that's a thing. Seriously, not one RWBY and Hellsing crossover showed up in my search after I wrote this story on paper in either November or December of 2015 (It's been laying around and gathering dust that long). But apparently three have been around for at least that long: I guess my search glitched or something. Well, I re-wrote everything after the first five paragraphs because I wanted it to match the RWBY lore a little better.
Anyway, this chapter is all I'm going to turn out for a long time because I'm working on my main story "Out of the Bag": A Bleach fanfic that explores the possibility of what may happen if soul reapers were discovered by the general human population [Insert shameless plug here].
So for now, this is a one-shot. I also have an addition planned for my other one-shot "Silver Linings" at some point. It will be its own self-contained story taking place within the same dystopian universe, this time focused on Yuzu and Isshin. By the way, apparently like seventeen other people have used that story title, but I've grown attached so I don't think I'll change it.
Extra info:
If you like anything from what I wrote here feel free to take it and use it: Just don't plagiarize, use your own words. I'm hardly the most descriptive or efficient writer out there, so there should be heaps of room for improvement.
I also had the idea that the Hounds of Baskerville (the shadow-like dog heads Alucard has/is) could be shaped like Zwei...
In case you're wondering, I have not read the other RWBY and Hellsing crossovers (not even the descriptions) so any similarities are pure coincidence.
Anyway, it's been about three years since I read Hellsing so I may be off about how the Cromwell restrictions work, but I remember reading something about extremely bad things happening to Alucard if the Hellsing bloodline dies out. So him getting shuttled to another dimension might sever the connection and activate the bad things (in this case, his death).
I hope you enjoyed it, and I would be really happy if you gave a review on what you thought of the story.
Have a good "until next time" and God bless,
