I don't own Hellsing. Don't sue me please! I have no money.
****************************
Her gleaming eye's shined in the darkness of the grand vehicle they were now departing in. He did not really have the slightest idea as to why he had agreed to come with her, except that he felt he must. There had been something in her voice and eyes. It was trance like. As though Satan had come to him as a snake ready to weave a spell upon him. He wanted to believe desperately that some truth might yet be revealed to him and that he would finally be enlightened in the way he longed for. Yet, somewhere in his heart he felt an ominous sting of doubt. After all once Adam and Eve ate of the tree of knowledge their eyes had been opened but at a cost too dear.
"Tell me," he said "where are you taking me."
She smiled again but the blood she had drunk earlier remained on her teeth. It was frightful seeing her long fangs tinged in red. She looked like a fierce primal animal and in a way she was. "Patience," she said.
He frowned, "I want to know where the hell we're going!"
"Shh," she hissed. "It does not matter but I am taking you to Dublin. It is far more important who we are going to see there."
He stared into her eyes. They were like to lamp lights in the darkness burning bright golden fires. No he thought to himself I shall not challenge her. It must be that I see with my own eyes. Then suddenly laughter filled his head and her smile contorted into a knavish grin.
****************************************
Integral slept peacefully in her bed. It was a humid night for late October so the windows were cast open bringing in only the gentle breeze of the wind. Alucard wandered the halls of the Hellsing mansion. He felt some base instinct to protect Integral now. Something about the night did not feel right. Rather then dissipate and appear before her he decided to tread lightly and walk into her room. Despite his lanky build he stepped lighter than air upon the stone floor. The door squeaked as he opened it but Integral did not stir.
He walked gently over to her bed. The breeze scattered the soft fabrics of her bed softly into the air. In that moment Integral slept peacefully like an ethereal angel. Her long blonde hair lay strung across her delicate silk sheets and her skin looked like honeyed porcelain. As he laid down next to her they were a sharp contrast. His dark red coat and black hair made him into some demon and made her all the more delicate. It was strange to see Integral then. She was so proud and staunch. She would never have allowed anyone to see her like this. Alucard alone had been the only person or rather creature Integral had ever allowed herself to be vulnerable with. He alone knew that underneath it all lay fragile bone and flesh.
Her skin was so soft and tempting. He longed to reach out touch her but he was after all her servant and he did try to do as she had commanded him. It had never been his intention that things should happen as they had. Thinking back onto the night when they had become far more than master and servant he could hardly believe he himself had acted as he had. He came to her offering her immortality but she lay there proud as ever and refused. In his anger he pulled her to her feet and thrust her against the wall and demanded that she choose one way or the other. Yet still, she gave him no answer except the quickening of her blood and the look in her eyes that asked him questions he could not understand. He wanted them to be partners forever. He had known she had been made for him from her very conception. She was the first woman to lead Hellsing and she had been set aside for him before she ever existed.
Though he wanted to do it with every stolen drop of blood he held he knew the choice would have to be hers. Still he had to have her just once at least. And so when he crushed his cold lips upon her warm ones and she did not resist them they fell together. He had given into his desire and settled for something simple and carnal instead of what he truly longed for and she let the walls that entombed her fall. She allowed herself to love Alucard as something different from what he was. Worse still was the betrayal to her family. Yet, it was to be. Even Alucard had not seen it coming and certainly he had not planed it. If he had thought carefully about it he might have been able to prevent it but it was so far from his mind.
It's syngamy had sent pulses through Alucard's spin and since the time of that fusion Alucard had not once lost the bond he felt to his child. He could always sense the boy. It did not matter that an ocean divided them or that he had never physically seen the boy's face. He just knew.
He did not tell her then as she lay in his arms. He had thought that it surely would self abort. These sorts of things rarely happened and when they did being something not quite human they were usually rejected by the human body that carried them. He ought to have known though that Integral was no run of the mill human being and that the child would inevitably find its way into being. When she came to him a month latter declaring her pregnancy she spoke with frothing anger. She had accused him of intentionally doing this to her. She said she could not have such a child but after she had yelled and screamed and he had not spoken a word she broke down, convulsing into sobs as she fell to the floor.
He did not comfort her it was not in his nature. When she looked up at him and said that she would kill the child he quickly pulled her to her feet as he had done the very night of its conception. "Don't be foolish Integral. This child will not be killed unless you take your own life and you have a duty to Hellsing you must complete first. What's more it is mine child as much as yours so I will not allow you to do anything to it or yourself." With that he dropped her and she fell like a limp doll to the ground.
"I can not have this child. How can I bring such shame to the Hellsing name."
"It may kill you and then you wont have to worry about it." With that he walked away but it had been his only fear that indeed the child might kill her. It had enraged him to madness when she left England for Ireland without him. He did not really give a damn what happened to the child but he worried about Integral. If the labor were to much for her he wanted to be there to change her into a vampire to save her. However, on that late October night when he sensed his son's impending entrance into the world he was filled with a calmness he did not really understand.
He was strong and though he could make an effort to sense Integral it was no easy task; however, he could always sense his child and thus was able to sense Integral during her pregnancy. Her labor was long and strenuous still he knew she was well afterward. When she came home a month after the child was born they spoke nothing of the incident and indeed rarely spoke of it now. Except perhaps for the endless allusions he would make to it.
Then suddenly Integral burst forth from her sleep. Her body seemed to convulse into a spasm. She looked over at Alucard but she did not seem angered by his presence as she normally might
"Something is wrong with the boy," he said.
She panted heavily trying to catch her breath from her frightful vision. "I don't. Alucard."
"Please do not banter. Today we must be candid. Something is wrong with my child I can sense it."
She looked at him and she wanted to yell at him for bringing up Winston but she knew some how he was probably right. After all her maternal instinct felt something was amiss and that was nothing in comparison to Alucard's ability to sense impending disaster.
Suddenly, the phone range and she reached out placing it against her ear.
"Integral Hellsing."
"Excuse me Sir but I have you listed as the relation of one Ms. Abigail Richmond."
When Integral heard this name her heart sank and she moved her head toward Alucard but he was not there. She searched the room and noticed him now sitting in a chair. "Yes," she replied and then the detective began his narrative of the events at a small house in Galway.
When Integral hung up the phone Alucard looked at her. He stated flatly "Give me my orders." Under normal circumstances she would not tolerate such words from him but he uttered the word give with less of a tone of demand then she expected. He said the word as though it were a request between to intimate friends and so with a heavy heart she sent him to Ireland to save their child.
