Men of the Night: Chapter One: A Dark Reunion~
It was the year 1889, Sebastian Michaelis, the butler of the Phantomhive manor, was just finishing up the last of his duties for the night. He'd already put Ciel to sleep, and was making sure the manor was spic and span, but as he did so, he began to think of his old friend. Within just a few minutes he was lost in his mind. Old memories taking him back in time. Sebastian wanted to see him again. This wasn't the first time, he found himself doing this. The butler walked the halls till he reached his own room, and went inside, closing the door behind himself. He sat on his bed, continuing to think of his friend and the times they shared together, when he remembered one thing that was said to him.
His friend's voice played in his head, "If you ever break free from your contract, come visit me again in the future."
Even though Sebastian's contract remained intact at the moment, he still wanted to visit his friend, now. "If I do leave now, Master will never know. I've been to the future a few times, so I know that it'll be as if I never left in the first place, if done correctly. I better leave now, before any of them wake."
Sebastian walked to his forbidden closet, turning the knob, swinging the door open to walk inside. He made sure to close the door behind himself and walked to the back, moving some of his uniforms to reveal a secret door. This door could only be opened by Sebastian. The door led to a room with a portal to the underworld, and his time machine, along with other demonic trinkets and things. Sebastian ran his gloved fingers over the cold metal of the time machine. If anyone found out about what he possessed, things could end up well... Bad. The demon pressed the "On" button and watched as the machine lit up, and became ready for use. He removed his gloves with his teeth, and punched in the date he wanted to arrive. With a slight grin, he stepped inside the machine, pulled on the lever and with a blast of light, was sent in to the future.
Sebastian arrived in the year 1999.
In his pocket was a slip of paper with the address to the Hellsing Manor. He looked around at the street signs, and began on his way. He rode on a bus, where he was looked at oddly by strangers, due to his attire. Some admired the quality assuming it was for a convention or something, and others shrugged it off, assuming he was a butler for someone really rich, which he was. After the interesting bus ride full of questions and stares, he walked a few more miles till he arrived at his destination. Sebastian knocked heavily on the large door, and within a few seconds, the butler, Walter answered it.
"Hello there. State your business."
Sebastian smiled softly and said, "I'm here to see Dracula. He's an old friend of mine. He gave me the address, as a matter of fact. I'm not sure if he's ever spoken of me, but my name is Sebas- Malphas."
Walter placed his hand on his chin in thought, then paused for a moment. It's been an eternity since anyone called Alucard, "Dracula". With that, Walter knew he had to be an "old" friend of Alucard's. Not to mention, he recognized the name. "... Yes, as a matter of fact, he has spoken of you. You may enter." The Hellsing butler stepped to the side, and granted Sebastian entrance.
He smiled slightly as he walked in looking around, admiring the beautiful manor. He looked closely to see how clean everything was, and he was impressed. "Do you like what you see, Malphas?" Sebastian gave a nod of approval to Walter before replying. "Indeed I do. Now, if you don't mind, could you take me to Dracula's quarters?"
The butler nodded and walked in front of Demon, to lead the way. "Follow me." He followed closely, and before he knew it, the two were there. Walter smiled and whispered, hoping to be quiet enough for Alucard to barely hear. "Here we are." He walked back up the stairs leaving Sebastian.
The demon stood there for a moment, feelings rushing inside of him as his hand headed for the knob. He didn't know why he felt this way, but he ignored it and opened the door, and in the center of the room sat Alucard in his throne.
"Hello, old friend."
