Chapter 1 – April 1, 2029
It's been thirty years since the unknown Nazi attack here in England, and so much has changed since that horrific day… The round table conference was restored with the grand children of the old goats. And we had replenished our number of troops with more mercenaries, on the request of Seras, who has taken a liking to them after getting to know Captain Bernadette before his demise…
Other than that, we have a new staff to run the household here at the manor. Minus a certain roll I don't believe I'll ever have the heart to fill with another. Not after Walter, who perished in the Nazi attack, after turning traitor. His betrayal just hit too close to home. Especially after what Sir Isaac had revealed to me after everything was said and done…
But on to others less depressing topics, there have been a couple of things that have not changed in the least.
One of them being Seras… She still looks the same, of course, that is due to her status as a vampire. Though I must say that I am surprised that she managed to stay herself once she drank blood of her own free will. All she gained was the confidence to be herself. A cheeky, foul mouthed little brat as I had once suspected… Really, you wouldn't believe the mouth on her… I don't need children to know how it feels to be a mother. Not while I had Seras with me.…
A single mother at that, with the way my loyal servant has skipped out on his dark daughter. Speaking of which, that is the second thing that has not changed. Alucard has not returned. We've seen not one sound of maniacal laughter, nor a single black tendril of a shadow of him. He is late, and I will have words when and if he returns. I do not have the luxury of waiting centuries for him to return like Seras has. As it is, I have already grown old and grey… Alucard needs to return soon… I would like to see him at least one last time before I die of old age… Until next I write.
Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing…
…
Reading the last entry of the little book my master had given me to help catch me up, I couldn't help but chuckle at her antics. She was right on all accounts save one. I did not skip out on them. The truth of the matter was that I was lost within myself, and it took thirty years to kill enough of myself off, just to be able to come back. Someone who has lived as long as I have, would have a lot of self to kill.
At least my master got her wish… I thought, as I thought back to the same day this was written. Not but mere hours after this was written to be more realistic. Don't misunderstand, Integra is still very much alive and kicking, and shooting… Still, I find it funny that she believed that I would find her blood repulsive. Virgin blood is still virgin blood. Age does not really make it loose its potency, but it has a certain taste only true vampires who have lived a long while could appreciate and savor.
Nonetheless, I also knew how she felt about Walter. It was a shame really, that such a beautiful old man threw his ability to age and die like a proper human away. I really hope that he eventually understood that I would have killed to be able to grow old and die before he died in that fire Integra had told me about.
"Master, we're about to land." The Police Girl said, as she sat down across from me in her seat on the plane we were flying in.
Nodding my head once to show that I heard her, I closed the book. A few hours ago, my master gave my dark child and I a new mission. Our first since I returned four days ago. We keep getting reports of ghoul activity, only to later piles of dust when hunters were sent out to search and destroy. And ever since I was told about it, I've found myself curious…
"Sir… Do you think that another vampire could be doing this?" the Police Girl asked, reflecting my thoughts out loud. Seems like I wasn't the only one who was curious.
"It's possible… However, if that is the case, it's probably some sort of pathetic vampire creating them, then killing them off as if he didn't do anything to start with to get under our good graces." I said, as I looked up at Seras. "Then again, it could be something else entirely." I suggested, as the Police Girl looked at me with wide eyes.
"Wait! It could be something other than a vampire?" she asked, as I felt the urge to shoot her out of irritation. Honestly, how in the hell did she survive around Integra for thirty years?
"We exist, do we not?" I asked her sarcastically.
Feeling a bit sheepish, she looked elsewhere and shut her mouth thankfully. Ever since she drank that blood from that French mercenary, she really had become rather cheeky as Integra had put it.
"I'll ignore your ignorance for now. Seeing as you've only been dealing with vampires your whole draculina life." I said, only to pause as I remembered that silent man from millennium. "Well, save that werewolf thirty years ago." I said, as I remembered the smell of wolf that seemed to cloak him.
"Oh, I had forgotten about him… He was happy that I killed him." Seras said, as I stood to my feet. Moving into the back, I slipped into my coffin. I was too tired and irritable to put up with Seras antics any longer. Especially with it being in the middle of the day.
Getting comfortable, I let myself slip into a dead sleep. Or so I had thought it would be…
…..
Elsewhere...
"Oh no, not this again…" I heard myself say as I woke up in that familiar field of flowers once more. "Come on Miku. You've got to wake up now." I whispered to myself, as I heard the faint sound of running water. Glancing around, I looked to see if he was here yet. When I didn't find him, I decided to do as I always did when I couldn't wake up from the dream, and went to find the source of the sound.
Arriving at a small stream, I knelt down to look into it. And when I did, my reflection shimmered before the image itself changed to show the tree from my childhood…
It was when my younger twin brother and I were seven years old, that we would climb and play up in that tree. But it was on that particular day, that I sat at the base of the trunk, while my brother swung around in the branches, that I reflected on the very strange dream I had had the night before.
At this thought, the image in the water shimmered again, and changed to show me the field I was currently standing in, only it was showing me standing in it as my childhood self. And across from me was the tall man dressed in a red trench coat…
I could clearly remember asking myself why I wasn't afraid of that dangerous man, and how I was able to feel so at ease around him. A man who looked, and had a scent and aura that could only describe someone from a horror story. A story that a kid's imagination would never do justice to…
"I see you've grown up…" I heard a deep voice say from behind me, as I jumped up to look at who it was.
Looking up, I saw the same man in the water, and he looked exactly the same as he had when I was little.
"It's you." I said, as I looked up into his red eyes. Once again, I couldn't help but wonder why I wasn't trying to get away from this man. This strange being…
Seeing my inner confusion, I was given the evil version of the Cheshire cat's grin that was all teeth and sharp, sharp fangs. And if his scent was anything to go by, then I'd say that he was a vampire…
"Who are you?" I asked him then, as I moved to the side, so that I wouldn't be between him and the stream. Sure, I could jump over it, but that would put my back to him, and my instinct told me that I would be hunted down the moment I did such a thing.
"You'll know soon enough, little one… You'll know soon enough." I heard him say, as a familiar voice broke through the haze of the dream.
"SIS!" It was Sai, my brother.
Looking back behind me, I felt the dream world shatter, as the man's maniacal laughter filled my mind as consciousness snapped me back to myself…
Jerking awake, I felt my body move to jump up into a defensive stance, only to be hindered by my brother's hands pulling me by my arms back into my seat.
"Easy Sis, it's alright, you're not there anymore." He said, as I snapped my head around to look in his direction.
"Sai?" I said, as I took deep breaths, trying to calm my heart rate down.
"I'm here Sis…" He said, as he put an arm around me, and hugged me to his side. "What was that all about?" he asked me a moment later, once I had caught my breath.
"You know those dreams I use to have when we were little?" I asked him, as I pulled away, and rubbed the sleep from my face.
"Those?" He repeated, before raising an eyebrow at me. "I thought they had stopped."
"They did… But something must have triggered them into starting up again. I'm not sure what, but maybe it's something waiting for us in England…" I said, as I opened the window, and looked out over the top of the ocean from the plane we were flying on.
We were on our way to England, where we are to begin college. Sai was really excited when we got our acceptance letters. I was happy, but something deep down made my stomach flutter; as if my instincts were telling me that going to England would change our lives forever.
But despite my strange feeling, I didn't have the heart to say no to my kid brother; and it was the perfect excuse to finally get away from that bastard Kai Shimada who believed he was my fiancée or something…
"Maybe… We'll just have to wait and see. It's all we can do. For all we know, our fears could be founded; or it could be nothing." Sai said, as he shrugged his shoulders, his concern for me clear as a bell. "And look on the bright side. We did some major cleaning up before we left. We left home safe." He continued, trying to cheer me up.
Giving him a soft smile, I settled back down in my seat. He always did that when I was down. Sai really hated seeing me upset. Almost as much as he hated his first name, Mafuyu.
"Thanks…" I said, as I leaned my head on his shoulder.
"Hey, anything for my awesome sister." He said, as he leaned his head on top of mine. "Did you at least figure out what he wanted this time?" Sai asked a moment later.
"No… He said that I had grown up, and he looked to be surprised… I asked who he was, and he told me that soon enough I would find out..." I said, as a shiver ran down my spine at the cryptic words…
"Like I said a long time ago, we'll figure it out eventually." He said, as he gave me a gentle squeeze.
I can only hope. I thought, as I went back to looking out the window from my brother's shoulder.
UK here we come…
…..
Alucard…
Opening my eyes, I couldn't help but blink in fascination and disbelief. That little girl I had discovered long ago was still alive, and a young woman at that. When I had awakened from my thirty year slumber, I had thought about her, but I had also thought that she had grown old and died by then, or if she was still alive, a beautiful old crone with several grandchildren.
Yet, here I am, just finding out that not only is she alive, but she is still a young woman. Then again, I really shouldn't be surprised. She is of the Sanguine blood line after all; even if it's only half of her blood…
I was pulled from my thoughts when I felt the plane tilt slightly, indicating that we were landing. Climbing out of my coffin, I walked back to the passenger area to find the Police Girl looking out the window. It was dark out, so I didn't complain or order her to shut it.
Sitting down in my own seat, I too looked out the window.
Moments later, we were getting off the plane, and into an awaiting car. And from there, we were brought to where the piles of ash still sat. Phasing out of the car with my hat and sunglasses in place, I walked right into the middle of the area.
"Wow… Looks like a hell of a fight broke out." I heard Seras say, as she walked up behind me, glancing around as she went. Ignoring her obvious outburst, I closed my eyes, and breathed in the night air, and what it had been witness to. The moment I did, I two figures. One was a male who fought off several ghouls at once. And from the way he moved, this was nothing new to him.
The same went with the other figure, who happened to be a female look alike. A look alike I surprisingly found myself pleased to recognize as the woman I saw in that dream… She fought off the master vampire, and any of his top minions who happened to get in her way. And once she had struck the vampire in the heart, she then turned gracefully to start killing off the ghouls surrounding, what seemed to smell like her brother…
And I couldn't help but admit that the way she danced with a blade in her hand, covered in the blood of her enemies struck something deep within my long dead heart…
The way they moved was quite graceful, and well-coordinated, and synchronized. And once again, it was obvious that they had been doing this a while. In fact, I'm confident that they were the ones who kept taking care of the ghouls right after the distress calls had been made.
Letting the air I had sucked in out in a darkly amused chuckle, all the while drawing Seras' curious gaze, I turned, and began walking towards the edge of the crime scene the humans had set up.
"Wait Master! Did you find out anything?" I heard Seras ask from behind me.
"Smell the air, it'll tell you what transpired." I said, as I kept on walking.
As I walked, I spanned my senses out to try and find the main sources of the smalls that had been left behind this night. Only to find that they had already flown out over the sea, towards home no less… Not to mention that vampire activity was nonexistent in this area…
Lady Descendant of the Sanguine… You are most interesting indeed… Never before would I have thought it possible for a being to be half vampire, and half something else besides human… I thought, as I pulled out this thing humans now a days call cell phones… Now to report to my master.
…..
Integra…
"Alucard, to be perfectly clear… You are telling me that someone who is a vampire, but also at the same time a werewolf killed those ghouls and the vampire controlling them?" I asked my servant, to make sure I had heard him right, and not because I was becoming senile. I am only 52 damn it!
"Yes, my master… From the similarity of their scent to one another, I'd say that they were brother and sister. Twins by the age of the smell…" Alucard responded, as a very reasonable question popped up in my mind.
"Wait a minute… I thought vampires cannot reproduce. How can they be half vampire, half werewolf?" I demanded, my patience growing thin, as the urge to smoke came to mind. Only to shudder in fear when I remembered what had happened the last time Seras had caught me smoking…
"That is where things get interesting… They are part of the Sanguine blood line." He said, as I raised an eyebrow, as that name struck a chord of familiarity.
"Sanguine…" I said, as I thought it over. "Wasn't that an ancient blood line of vampires that died out centuries ago?" I asked.
"Many of the Sanguine perished during my downfall as Dracula… However, there was one branch that escaped… A branch that the humans said were cursed, while we vampires called them blessed." He said, as a slightly annoyed tone entered his voice, which I ignored. After all, whenever his past was brought up, he always became rather unamused…
"Cursed from the human's perspective, and blessed from a vampire's. How on earth would a family be cursed and blessed at the same time like that?"
"It's quite easy… Simple really… Those of that Sanguine branch were… How do you say…? Vampires that could pop out infant children who could also pop out infants later on in life…" He explained, as I gaped at the walls in shock. "It wasn't easy though, for from what I had heard once, they could only make a female conceive during a certain time scale…" He continued, as I sat down behind my desk in disbelief.
"So they can reproduce…" I said, as I tried to process that into my mind. "Are you sure of this? Are you sure this wasn't some sort of court rumor from that time?" I demanded.
"I can assure you that it is no rumor… One of the females mated to a Sanguine male suddenly dropped, and gave birth right before our eyes unexpectedly. We all thought it would be still born, only to be proven wrong by the infant's cries…" He said, as I sat back.
"Well, your vampire self be damned…" I said, as I closed my only remaining eyes, and pinched the bridge of my nose.
"You were hanging around the Police Girl the entire thirty years weren't you?" Alucard asked me, as an evil smirk I had picked up from him crossed my face.
"You have no idea, my servant. You have no idea…" I said, before turning serious once more. "Very well… You and Seras are to stick around for a day or two… I want you to find these hybrids, and bring them to me." I ordered, only for Alucard to speak up.
"I'm afraid our staying would only be a waste of time." I heard him said, as I paused, my ire rising at his words.
"Why is that servant?" I demanded.
"They are no longer here. And there is no longer any vampire activity here either. It is also my belief that they are already on their way to you as we speak." Alucard said, as my interest sparked.
"Oh really… I can't wait to meet them…"
…
Miku…
The rest of our flight was uneventful as we landed in the city of London, and I found first moments in England to be exhausting. After waking up after that dream, I just couldn't get my nerves to settle back down enough to go back to sleep. At the moment, we were standing in front of the small apartment my brother and I were to occupy during our stay here.
It had two bedrooms, a small hallway, living area, kitchen behind a wall with an empty slot to walk through to get to it, a walk in pantry off to the side in the kitchen, and a small bath room right beside the little entry way. Not to mention that it was dirt cheap compared to all of the other places we had found. Not that we couldn't afford any of the other places, it's just that despite coming from a rich family, Sai and I don't like to wallow in it.
We both knew money never made the holder happy, so we only found it useful to an extent. Housing, food, and cloths was all we really needed, plus just a little extra, but not a whole freaking lot for other things…
All we were trying to do was be as normal as possible, and being vampire werewolf hybrids, that was a mission easier said than executed…
Grabbing our personal suit cases, we headed for our individual rooms.
"Are you sure you don't want the bigger room Sis?" Sai asked for the millionth time.
"No… You're getting that one end of story." I snapped back. Ever since we accepted this place, he had been going on and on about how his awesome sister should get to slightly bigger bed room.
"Fine…" he sighed a moment later, as he turned down the small hallway, and opened the door to the room he was getting. Secretly, I wanted him to have that room because an intruder would have to get past me first to get to him. Of course, he would freak if I were to tell him that, so I found the perfect excuse that isn't a lie.
I didn't like wide open spaces when it came to resting. I loved to feel a bit cramped as my brother called it. For some reason, I always felt as ease when the space I was in was small. I could easily curl up into myself with a good blanket or my brother and just cuddle… I really love to cuddle, but then again, who with wolf blood in them wouldn't?
Dropping my suitcase off to the side for later, I then went to find my brother. As I was about to go down the hall way to his room, I paused when I spotted him standing at the entry way.
"Oh there you are…" I said, as I walked over to him. "I was coming to tell you that I was about to go get a few groceries until tomorrow." I said, as he leaned up against the door. Blocking my way out of the house. "What are you doing?" I asked him, as I crossed my arms over my chest.
"How about I go get the groceries, and you rest up a bit." He offered, as I glared at him.
"Sai, I'm fine… Now just move so I can go… Besides, we both can't go because the rest of our stuff is due to arrive in an hour or two." I said, as I moved to push him out of my way, only to pause when he did those puppy brother eyes at me.
"Sai…" I whined, as I looked over in another direction. "Do you have to do this to me?"
A small whimper escaped his lips, making me gape and look back at him. Something that ended up being my downfall as I threw my hands up in surrender.
"Only for you, pup… Only for you…" I said, reverting back to the nickname I always used back when I had to not only raise myself, but him as well. "If you'd been anyone else, you'd be short a ball." I muttered, as I wandered back towards my room.
"I'll be back soon." Sai called after me, as I heard him open the door and shut it.
"Just come back safe Pup…" I muttered once more, as I opened my door, and walked over to my bed. Kicking off my shoes, and popping the clasp of my bra, I collapsed on the bed. Not long after, I thankfully, fell into a dreamless sleep…
However, right before my thought process completely shut down, I got that feeling that things were about to get weird. If only I'd known then, just how right I was going to be…

Okay, just a heads up! I own nothing of Hellsing, and the OC's and main idea behind this story belongs to Dragonmaster789, who requested that I write this story! Thank you for reading, and I really hope you enjoyed it! I will have the next chapter up as soon as I can.
And those of you waiting for Hellsing Forever, I will have the first chapter out as soon as I can. I completely forgot about the date I had set for it. For that I apologize. And if you're hearing about this story for the first time, then I recommend reading Demented Angel first. Seeing as it's the first part, and Hellsing Forever is the second.
