Family Blood

Chapter: 3

Sir Hellsing

Well another chapter up and now enter Integra.

She sat in a comfortable lounge chair while she waited on the arrival of the heiress of the Victoria estate to arrive. She pulled out a cigar and went for a light but stopped as her butler pulled out a lighter saying, "Allow me Sir Integra."

Integra accepted the light before taking a puff and exhaling. "Thank you Walter. Now we just need this heiress to show up so we find out if she is going to be up to her family duty," Integra replied as she looked back outside.

Outside a storm had kicked up with rain and wind that attacked the old mansion with its never ending assault. Ever once in a while a lighting bolt would arch down to the earth soon followed by a thunderclap that sounded like war drums being played from across the valley. The wind whipped back and forth as anything not firmly attached to the ground was moved from its base or toppled onto the ground in the vicious dance of the elements. It was in this environment that Integra Fairbrooks Wingate Hellsing waited for what was to be the new owner of the mansion. Integra's family had been friends with the Victoria's for a long time and now she was here to honor that tradition by befriending the new lady of the mansion. "I just hope she is ready for what is ahead of her," was all Integra could say.

Walter adjusted his monocle before saying, "Mr. Elberton said that she had no idea about her family history. That's why he asked us to come so you can help teach her about what is to come."

Integra sighed while thinking, 'This is not a good thing. It is not her fault that her father was selfish but this could cause a great problem if she can not learn quickly.'

Integra looked up to see headlights heading up the drive. She stood and started walking towards the door while saying, "Well, shall we go meet our new heiress."

Charles pulled the car into the garage before quickly jump out the car. He moved to Seras' door before opening it and quickly moving the young girl into the mansion. Once they were inside Charles breathed a little easier. As he looked up he noticed the two visitors head down the stairs. "Ah yes, Sir Hellsing so good for you to come. This is Miss Seras Victoria who will be inheriting the mansion once the paperwork is finished."

Seras looked up to she a young woman a little older than herself. She was dressed in a green suit that seemed to be more towards a man clothing than that of an aristocratic women. Sir Integra's vibrant blue eyes looked the young heiress over before she extended a gloved hand and said, "It is a pleasure to meet you Lady Victoria," in a voice that exuded proper upbringing and confidence.

"Just...just Seras will be fine," Seras said somewhat meekly before shaking.

Integra watched as the young heiress jumped at the sound of a thunderclap and began to look around frightened. Integra could not help but raise an eyebrow at this action because she could see the pure fear that flew through the young woman's eyes. 'What on earth...she can't be that afraid of thunder,' Integra thought.

"Lady Hellsing I need to speak with you in private if you would follow me," Charles motioned as he showed Integra into a room.

Seras looked around worriedly. Ever since her last dream she could not relax. She was always on edge that he was lurking just around the next corner. Waiting and watching her until he was ready to strike out at her and harm her again like last time. She shivered in fear as she thought about what she would do. She would need to go to sleep sometime and when she slept she knew he would be there. He felt a hand on her shoulder and jumped. She spun to see the older butler that had accompanied Sir Hellsing looking at her. He wore a monocle over his left eye, and his suit was spotless, not even a wrinkle anywhere. He smiled warmly at Seras before saying, "Are you okay Miss Victoria?"

Seras shakily replied, "Ye...yes, I guess I'm just a bit worn out after the last two days."

Walter smiled with taking Seras hand and saying, "Follow me. I know the perfect cure. A nice hot cup of tea will have you feeling better in no time."

Seras smiled at the older gentleman before saying, "Thank you."

Integra sat down in the study as Charles closed the door. He came to stand in from of Integra before she asked, "So what is this about?"

"It's as we feared...he's awake," Charles said lowly while looking around.

"What," Integra shouted as she stood, "How do you know that. The seal should not be giving out for another few weeks."

"I know...I know," Charles replied, "But, he is awake and he has found Seras. Just last night Seras was screaming her head off in her sleep and when I awoke her she had asked where this man from her childhood was."

"So, she could have just had a nightmare that does not prove anything," Integra replied as she tried to discount the idea that he was awake.

"That's not all. Look at her once we are done. Her left ear has two puncture wounds that match fangs. As well she described him to the point. His inhuman height, his long ebony hair, and those blood red eyes that stalk its prey. She has seen him and he is coming after her. I'm sure he is trying to sway the decision she must make soon," Charles replied.

"We will have to watch her...does he only come to her in her sleep," Integra asked.

"So far as I know. When she sleeps he comes to her. I need to begin work on make a stronger talisman for her," Charles replied as he began to research.

"I'll go check on Miss Victoria," Integra replied as she walked out of the study while thinking, 'God help us if he gets to her.'

Seras sipped at the hot tea that Walter had prepare for her and sighed. "This is great. Thank you Walter," Seras replied as she smiled at the butler.

Walter was about to reply when Integra walked through the door. "I hope your meeting went well Sir Integra."

Integra nodded at Walter before she walked up to Seras and quickly grabbed her left ear. Seras hissed at the pain that shoot through her system and jerked away before shouting, "What are you doing?"

"Just as Mr. Elberton said. You were bitten on the ear. Would you care to describe what happened," Integra asked with an all knowing look on her face as she sat down.

Seras sighed and said, "He did that to me. He keeps visiting me when I go to sleep. He constantly tells me that I have a choice to make and last time he bit me. He said it was to give me a taste of what he would do to me if I crossed him and made the wrong decision."

Integra sighed before saying, "He's right you do have a decision to make but he is trying to scare you into making the wrong decision."

"Who is he and what does this have to do with my family," Seras asked as she was tired of not knowing what was going on.

"There is not enough time to explain tonight but I will just say that he is the closest thing to a demon you will ever know. It is your families duty to keep him at rest and now it is your turn to carry that torch," Integra explained before standing.

"Walter let's show Miss Victoria to her room. I'll remain to watch over her for the night," Integra commanded.

"As you wish Sir Integra," Walter replied as he lead the women down the hall to Seras' new room.

Integra sat besides Seras' sleeping form keeping watch over the young heiress as she slept. 'I will confront you if you come for her tonight,' Integra thought.

All of a sudden gasped in her sleep and said, "Not again. Leave me alone."

Integra's eyes widened as she realized he was already here. She stood and shouted, "Walter!"

Seras found herself in the bedroom of the castle again. Instead of backing up she spun around expecting to see him there waiting for her. No one was in the room but Seras knew better than to thing that. She spun again and looked for him but he was still not there. "Looking for something Police Girl," came the baritone voice from her left.

Seras looked towards the bed to see him lounged on the bed looking at her with an odd emotion in his deep red eyes. Seras turned fully towards him and glared before saying, "What not going to hold me in place? Not going to bite my ear?"

He chuckled slightly before asking, "What you prefer that I treat you roughly Police Girl?"

"No, I would prefer you to get out of my life," Seras shouted while still glaring at him.

"Sorry, but I can't do that. You are stuck with me one way or another. The only difference is that I can be here to bring you trouble or I can aid you. It is always up to you," he replied as he stood from the bed.

"What are you doing? Stay right there," Seras shouted as she backed up.

Seras' back hit something. She looked behind her to see she had run into an old table. She turned around to come face to face with him and his red eyes. She went to push him away but her hand were caught by him. "Let me go," Seras demanded as she kicked him in the shin.

He laughed again before coming closer to Seras. The talisman began to glow but he was not repelled as he stared at Seras. "Why are you not being pushed away," Seras asked as fear began to overcome the anger she had possessed.

"Because the blood I drank from you gave me some of my old strength back. That like trinket you have there only works when I am at my weakest," he replied as he drew closer.

Seras closed her eyes in fear and looked away not wanting to know what he would do to her. She felt a breath against her neck before his lips ran across her skin. Seras grunted slightly at the feeling while opening her eyes and staring at him. He nipped at Seras' neck slightly before he heard her gasp at the feeling. "Do you like that Police Girl. I showed you what I can do to you if you make the wrong choice, but I can also reward you for making the right decision," he replied before capturing Seras lips.

Seras had been caught off guard and now his tongue slipped into her mouth. She quickly bit down on his tongue just to hear him growl that sounded more aroused than painful. Seras let go after he did not react to her bite. She could taste the copper of his blood leaking into her mouth and she began to struggle. He held her in place before she heard his voice in her head, "You should have thought about that before biting Police Girl."

Seras tried to struggle but she could not get loose. Soon the taste of blood left and she felt his tongue against her tongue. Seras tried to move away but her wrapped his tongue around her own to deepen the kiss. Seras was having trouble focusing. This felt so strange and yet so seductive she could tell that he was effecting her somehow but she was not sure how. She felt tension build even thought her truly was not touching her. She was having trouble fighting him off. Suddenly he pulled away and Seras panted while asking, "What did you do to me?"

"Like I said I can reward you. If you like that I can give you even more if you just make the right choice," He replied before he looked to the door.

There came a voice that Seras recognized as Integra, "Demon that haunts this one's dreams I summon you to are world and to leave this one now!"

Seras woke up to see Integra turned to face the walking shadow that was in the middle of the room. Its red eyes glared at Integra before saying, "Stay out of this you wench. It is only up to her and her only."

"I will not let you manipulate her. She will fulfill her destiny and put you back to sleep," Integra shouted as she held the protective talisman in front of her.

The shadow solidified to form the man that Seras was used to. He smirked showing his sharp teeth as they shown in the low light. He moved forward and reached for Integra but had to back away because of the talisman she held. He growled before backing up and saying, "I'll see you again my dear," before laughing into the night and disappearing.

Integra huffed as she tried to catch her breath. She looked at Seras before saying, "Go back to sleep I shall be here to protect you for the night."

"Thank you," Seras replied as she quickly passed out because of her lack of sleep over the past couple of nights.

"Your welcome," Integra smiled as she sat down to continued her watch.
