Chapter 5: A look into the history of Sieghardt
Disclaimer: Same as always
Seras had already left her room, not having entered it more than ten minutes ago. She was unable to sleep for one reason or the next, and had decided to see if the new resident of Hellsing, Sieghardt, was up at all. As she made her way down the darkened catacombs of the mansion she came to the door that she had been searching for. She knocked on it and a simple, "Come in" was the only answer the she received.
When she opened the door she looked in and saw that Sieghardt had kept on his somewhat baggy pants, and taken off his vest, hat, and original shirt. Replacing it with an average t-shirt. His room was the same as hers, only that he had a duffle bag placed near the wall next to his coffinbed, and his gun-belt was on top of the bag. His guns were on the table, along with, what looked like, two sword scabbards. One still contained its sword, while the other was in the hands of its wielder, being cleaned and inspected.
" May I ask why you have sought out an audience with me Seras?" asked Sieghardt. He then set down the sword on the table. It was silver with symbols that looked to be some sort of ancient writing on the sides. The hilt was a simple rod-like design, with the blade becoming a slight bit thicker towards about halfway up toward the end of it, the beginning of it's width gain started with an upside down V in the thinner part of the sword. It was about 3 feet long but it's width looked to only be about half of a foot, with a curved back to it.
" I wanted to ask you some questions." Began Seras
" Alright, what do you wish to know?" asked Sieghardt, leaning back in the chair on the table at the center of the room.
" If you are Alucard's son, then why do you use swords, if at all?" asked Seras, she was a little confused that the offspring of her master would use anything other than guns, or his own powers.
" To tell you the truth, I can't unlock my full power." Began Sieghardt, " The ability restraints that Integral has on my father are the same sort of thing that I have on myself. Only mine do allow me to channel some of that power into my weapons, which would give me something of more control."
" So, who is the one who can release the locks?" asked Seras
" That I entrusted to my mother." Began Sieghardt, Seras looked somewhat dumbfounded and was about to ask why, he cut her off, " If you are wondering why, then ask yourself if you truly want my father to have control over that, I mean his original name was Vlad Tepes."
" WHAT!" exclaimed Seras; she had read about this man and what he had done. " You mean to say that… Alucard, my master, is also Dracula?"
" Yeah, I can guess why he didn't want to tell you, but couldn't you have figured it out after the Incognito incident, when the found the son of a bitch impaled on that silver pike?" asked Sieghardt
" No, but I could have guessed. So he was really human once, wasn't he?" asked Seras, her hope gaining somewhat to know her master had once been like she had been.
" Yes, but I don't think you need to really bug him about it. There are too many memories attached to that part of him, that is the reason why he left the human side of him behind. And even though I was never human, with what I have seen over the years, it personally doesn't surprise me a bit that he would do something like that." Said the young Nosferatu, with a bit of pity sounding in his voice.
" Oh, I can see what you're talking about, it must have been hard on him." Said Seras
' Why wouldn't he tell me something like that, I mean don't I have a right to know at least a little on his past and what he was. Why can't he just open up to someone at least once.' Thought the young fledgling. She had begun to search her feelings for her master, especially since Sieghardt showed up.
" Hey, how long have you been in the Hellsing Organization, I mean you can't have lived that long?" asked Seras, this man was talking about seeing stuff like this, but he didn't look to be out of his twenties.
" Actually, I was on Hellsing for about 5 years. Before I was thrown into that time portal that formed when I had that fight with Kagan. And I have been in the past for a little over 350 years. And to tell you the truth, I'm only 20 years old, considering I haven't aged at all since I fell into that time portal; and probably won't until I reach the second that I was thrown through that portal." Said Sieghardt
" So, you were powerful enough to fight with this organization since you were only 15? Whoa, you must have been really powerful." Said Seras
" Actually I could have done it sooner; however, my mother wouldn't hear of it." At this he began to chuckle, " I mean, you would think a vampire who had been around since the 15th century wouldn't be afraid of anything, but when my father began to talk about me going into the organization when I was only eleven." At this he began to go into a side-splitting laughter, nearly falling out of his chair.
Seras could only picture what he was thinking about: simply Alucard cowering at the form of a woman, but that woman was herself in her imaginings, and at that point the No-Life king decided to enter the room after looking into both of their thoughts.
He let out a loud "Ahem" to announce is presence.
" I suppose you think it must have been very funny to see me cowering in fear of your mother like that hmmm?" asked the agitated vampire.
" Yes, actually, it was one of the damned most funny things I have ever seen in my entire life." Said Sieghardt as he began to recompose himself.
" Right…, Police Girl, I believe you and o… my son have been at your conversation for a bit too long, and I suggest that you return to your room. You still need to be rested for the tomorrow night." Said Alucard
" Yes Master. Goodnight Sieghardt."
" Good night, Seras." With that said she left the room to return to her own, but she was wondering why Alucard had changed what he was saying so suddenly. The No-Life king and Sieghardt were left alone to discuss a few things.
" I see you have figured out who my mother is, by seeing into my memories', of course." Said Sieghardt, " But I don't sense any disappointment from you on the matter, so I would guess that you are pleased with the outcome of this?"
" I would be, if I don't have to experience something like that for a while." Said Alucard " But why did you tell her of my past life; that was something for me to do, not you, even If you are my son."
" Yeah, but I did anyway. It needed to be done… Vlad Dracula, son of the Dragon Vlad Dracul." Said Sieghardt
Alucard began to chuckle at this: here was his son, calling him by a name he had not heard in many a year. And calling him the son of his father no less. This one was smarter than he let on.
" I suppose I will see you when we discuss this tomorrow evening?" asked Sieghardt
" Yes, but there is one thing I would like to look at." Alucard then walked over to the table where Sieghardt's weapons lay. Picking up one of the blades he took it out of the scabbard. It looked like its silver counterpart, but it was black, its blade looked to be made of Obsidian.
" Forged by a Vampiric swordsman, payment for saving him from an assassin sent by the Vatican. He may have been good at swords, but he was weak. Even though he was a true one." Said Sieghardt as he described the sword's creation.
" I see, these are good weapons." At this he gained his normal sadistic smile " I hope to see you use them soon."
" If we run into any of the people I have faced in my time then yes we will. And I also have I feeling you would like to see my channel my energy into those blades, and see what kind of power I am capable of, even with these locks on my powers." Bragged Siehardt.
Alucard merely chuckled. He put the sword back in its scabbard and phased through the wall.
Sighing, Sieghardt shut off the lights into his room, and then went over to his bed and closed the lid. Gaining some well-deserved rest before the next day, when he would find the exact location of the next piece by using the shard, which was in a pocket in his trench coat.
AN: Sorry to make this chapter kind of short, but I wanted to get into Sieghardt's history a little more.
