I do not own any characters from Hellsing.

This is my first fic so I hope everyone likes it. Please leave a review!!

"Alucard..."

I could feel my disgruntled vampire King hovering over me in the darkness. I had recently told him and my subordinates that I needed an heir to the Hellsing empire. My job had taken a toll on my body and as I get older the more pains and illnesses I seem to gain. I never planned to retire but a recent battle with some unruly young vampires had me in bed for weeks with broken bones. A 50 year old woman shouldn't be fighting like she is 20 again. Slowly the No Life King started to materialize before me.

"Integra, are you having more...interviews today?" The disapproval rolled off him in waves with his question.

"Of course I am Alucard and no one including you can tell me not to," I've dealt with his attitude for weeks now and each person I interviewed he had managed to run off. Even Seras encouraged his bad behavior and even joined in on it. I threw my covers off slowly, with poping joints, and got out of bed. Alucard offers his arm to me and leads me to the restroom.

"Do you want me to help you into the shower?" He smirks. I glare at him but then thought it wouldn't be the first time. I gave him a small nod and he quickly leaves my side to turn on the water and prepare my clothes for me. He has become more attentive in the past few years. I wish I wasn't slowly falling a part and could stay with him, but of course my body decided to tank when I hit 40. I knew I was running out of time and I needed someone competent enough to take my place and of course take care of Alucard and Seras.

The steam filled the room quickly and Alucard helped me undress. I felt a chill run through me as his finger tips brushed against my frail skin and he removed the last bit of clothing. I turned my head to see he had removed his gloves and coat, he is lanky but strong in this form. His pale skin complemented my darker skin. I felt as though we matched each other perfectly. Once I was under the slow rain of hot water Alucard grabbed the soap. He normally got drenched when he helped me shower, which I didn't understand why he never just got in with me. It's not like we hadn't shower together before. Once I was washed and dressed he escorted me to my office.

"Alucard please go and greet our guest at the door." He looks so disgruntled when he evaporates from the room.

"Here we are miss."

The driver pulls up in front of the famous Hellsing mansion. I take a nervous breathe before I step out of the car. I straighten up my pants suit and confidently walk up to the massive oak front doors and ring the bell. Not even a second after the ring the door opened. I was a bit shocked to see the tall dark brooding man in the doorway. "Good morning miss please come in I will escort you to see Sir Hellsing."

I hesitated before crossing the threshold into the immaculate entryway. The man before me seemed as though he may not want me here. We went to the left of the grand staircase down a long hall with photos of what looked like Hellsing family members that were hand painted. The tall man with dark hair dressed entirely in red opened a set of oak french doors to a huge office. A blonde older woman sat at an ordinary desk towards the back. The man guided me forward, where I stopped just in front of the older woman's desk.

"Good morning Ms. Knighton I hope your trip was pleasant," the older woman stated.

I knew Lady Hellsing was getting old, but on further inspection of her face she seemed much older than I first thought. I bow at my hips in respect, "good morning Lady Hellsing. It is a pleasure to finally meet you in person, and my trip as you say was pleasant." I take a deep breath as I stand up right again. "Great, I would like to start discussing the reason you are here and kind of interview you if I may." Lady Hellsing gestures to the metal pop up chair to my right and she continues, "Ms. Knighton I am, as you know, retiring soon. I've become too old and broken to continue my reign over the Hellsing estate. Furthermore my two vampires are not getting the leadership that they need." She then points to the tall man in red and a smaller blonde female I hadn't noticed arrived behind me.

"Of all the people I have interviewed you are one of two that I previously had letter correspondence with in the last year. You are the only one that has all the qualifications that I require."

"Which is what exactly?" I had to interrupt because I really didn't know what I needed for this job. I had been writing her as a companion for 18 months. I heard a low growl come from behind me which made me a bit uneasy. Lady Hellsing didn't respond right away she just sat there and seemingly stared behind me at the two vampires, like they secretly had some mentally transmitted conversation. "You're what I would call "fresh" to a certain degree. I need to be able to mold you into the perfect replacement, but you need a little experience in dealing with hardships and loss." I had some idea of what she ment by hardships and loss with my past.

"So to start off, are you afraid of the dark?"

I paused for a moment. What kind of question was that? I almost wanted to laugh but held back out of respect; she was so serious. "No ma'am I'm not."

"What about the site of blood? Does it make you sick?"

"No ma'am."

"Dead bodies?"

"No."

Our back and forth continued on for another thirty minutes. Then she asked about things I had already wrote to her about.

"Tell me about you're current job."

"Well I work in the city morgue over night. I'm the one that strips, cleans, and embalms the bodies, and I also help the Medical Examiner collect things off some of the bodies. I also prep some for their funerals." It wasn't the best job but it paid enough. "Hmm, so she has a little skill.Elle a l'air faible," the tall dark-haired man stated.

I glance at the black haired man I have yet to be introduced to. "I'm not weak, but please show me what you've got sir." I smile a bit as he frowns deeply. "Anastazya this is Alucard and that girl there is Seras. They are the vampires that reside here in my mansion. Alucard has many names I'm sure you've heard, like Dracula or the No Life King. Seras is his underling." My eyes widened with shock after the introduction. Who would've guess the king of all vampires was standing in the very room I was in. "Alucard has been my family's secret weapon for generations." Lady Hellsing continued to explain her history with Alucard. I was so mesmerized by him I didn't hear half of what she said. "Well Miss Knighton what do you think?" Upon hearing my name I snapped out of my trance. "When do I start?" The older woman smiled brightly and I heard groans coming from both night walkers. "Well now I haven't even told you what all you'd be doing plus both of them need to approve of you after a trial run." As far as I was concerned if the job meant being around two vampires and staying out of the morgue I was happy with it. "Well on first impression it looks like I'll have to win them over but it looks as though you are fond of me Mrs. Hellsing. If it means I'm out of that morgue I'm ready for whatever job you give me." Sir Hellsing rose from her chair and extended her hand to me and with a beaming smile and I stood to shake it. "Can you move in now? We can start your training immediately." She seemed somewhat excited about it so I noded.
