Walter and Integra just stood there in shock. The sight and sound of Vlad the Impaler was write in their view. However, instead of looking menacing he was actually smiling and holding his daughter in his arms. Alucard just stood there in shock as he looked at his future self. His future was in his ultimate form, his TRUE form. Why would he be in that form?
"Ugh . . . your majesty?" Vlad looked at Walter. "What do you plan to do now?"
"Well first, we must return to Romania and rescue Seras. I fear that the bastard who kidnapped her has put her in grave danger."
"Who kidnapped her?" Alucard's voice cut in the conversation.
"His name is William." He looked at Alucard. "He's had an obsession with my mate since their meeting ten years ago. He's been pissed that she already had her heart belong to someone else. He didn't take that well and vowed to take me down once again. I hate to admit it but he nearly kept his promise. He had managed to capture and keep me silent for over five years, but he underestimated my mate?"
"What do you mean?" Integra asked in a polite manner.
"Alexis" Vlad looked down at his daughter, who was smiling back up at him. "He underestimated my mate because if she could manage to keep Alexis safe, then there was a chance for us to win the war. She managed to complete her plan, but she recently had fallen, as you know. The only way to have her awaken is to kill William."
"Can I do the honors?" Alexis asked with a grin. She heard her father chuckle. "Seras is right. You are becoming me." Walter and Integra widened their blue eyes.
"How do you know she said that?!" Integra asked in a yell.
"I have a question for you Alexis." Vlad ignored Integra. "Why did you name me 'Sphere'?"
"I don't have much creativity" She mumbled with a pout. However, the face became serious when the mansion began to shake violently.
"Damn! They must have set bombs on the whole damn manor!" Integra growled out before looking at the king. Vlad just let out a smirk. He snapped his fingers with his free hand, making a blue portal open.
The image inside the portal was the castle, looking the same as it did when they left. However, the earth below it was completely covered in red. On top of the ground were mutilated bodies. Heads, limbs, torsos were scattered everywhere. They don't just belong to the soldiers, some parts of the vampire servants have been spotted as well. Alexis widened her eyes when she spotted the heads of the maids she had grown attached to. Anika, Kendra and Lizzie were all dead. Proof was their limbs spread out through the area. The only living thing that Alexis could see was Ashlee, but it looked like she wouldn't last long either. Her face was covered with her blood coming down her cheeks. It looks like she was panting heavily.
"My god!" Alexis gasped as she covered her eyes from the scene. Though she had grown much more sadistic, it was hard for her to see those close to her being killed. Vlad held his daughter tighter in his embrace.
"This is what war does to you. You see those close to you be killed or die right in front of your eyes." Vlad whispered softly against his head. "This is what your mother didn't want you to see."
Alexis kept her head inside of her father's chest. He looked down at her in sympathy, making the by standers watch in wide eyes.
"Daddy?"
"Yes Alexis?" Alexis looked back up at him with her red eyes glowing red and her shadows appear around the group.
"Make him pay!" Vlad and Alucard then grinned at their daughter's anger coming to the surface. He nodded to her before heading into the portal with Alexis in his arms, letting the bright blue light overcome his senses. He was dragged to Romania by the portal in less than a second. Alexis widen her eyes as she stared up at him.
"How did you do that?"
"My teleportation power is much stronger now since my body is back." Vlad replied with a smirk. A cloud of footsteps occur behind them. Vlad turns to be greeted by the sight of the entire group. Integra, Walter and Alucard all held smirks on their faces.
"The castle!" Alexis' scream alerted the group to look up at the castle. Hovering above the castle was Seras. She looked down at them with red eyes, except they were missing their pupils. She wore her normal Hellsing uniform, but it was torn all over the place. She must have been tortured to get into this state. Beside her was the notorious William. He looked at the group with a smirk, making Vlad growl lowly.
"What in the world is wrong with Seras?" Walter asked, flabbergasted.
"She's been put under William's spell. Though he is human, he is able to cast powerful spells. Seras is not a full fledge vampire so she has fallen victim under his trance." Vlad explained as he growled. His mate's past was in one hell of a situation and now he has no choice but to fight her.
"That's right king! I'm shocked you managed to get out of my spell. I thought that brat might have had something to do with it!" William sneered at the group. He snapped his fingers with a grin. Seras then held her hands out in front of them, creating a small shadow ball. Her first aim was at Alexis, however; Vlad blocked the attack with a force field. He didn't even have to lift a finger to create it. Alexis widen her eyes.
"Seras! What are you doing?!" Integra yelled out to the blonde. Seras gazed her sight as Integra.
"You no longer control me" She stated in a distorted voice. Her pure innocent voice held a demonic tone in it. Alucard and Vlad widened their eyes.
"This isn't good" Alucard growled.
"What do you mean?!" Integra turned her sight to him as she yelled at him.
"William is forcing Seras to turn into a full-fledged vampire. She hasn't consumed blood properly into her body. If this process continues, she is in grave danger." Vlad explained as he set Alexis down. If they don't free soon, Alexis would disappear.
"Correct. I was actually mad when I found out that she wasn't the queen. However, with some hard thinking, I could MAKE her into the beautiful queen. Getting into this trance was proven rather difficult. She fought against me so hard. All she screamed was for her precious master to come and save her. You managed to find me quicker than usual and if you had continued to search for her, you could have saved her. However, you had to get your precious king instead! It's your fault!" William let out a mad laugh. Vlad and Alucard narrowed his eyes at him.
Alexis widened her eyes, letting blood flow out of her eyes. It was all her fault. If she hadn't distracted with finding her imprisoned father, then none of this would happen. Her body started to shake as she hugged herself. She looked up at her possessed mother, staring down at her. 'This isn't the time for tears!' She thought to herself. Taking an offensive stance, she looked at Vlad and Alucard.
"Daddy." Both of them looked at her. "Why don't you take care of William while I try to get mom back into her right mind."
"Are you sure?" Alucard asked. His reply was a nod. Her hard eyes were set on her mother. Vlad let out a small smirk.
"Let's go then" He proudly stated before turning to his daughter. "You have your mother's spirit. You can do this" With that said, both Alucard and Vlad flew into the air. At the same height were Seras hovered. Alexis was second to join them in a matter of seconds.
Walter and Integra watched from the ground. "Walter, do you think that they can do it?"
"Let's not forget who we are in the presence of. I'm sure they can pull it off" Walter replied with a smirk. Integra's worried look was gazed at Seras. The wind blew against her warm skin, telling her to stay calm and have faith.
"Why don't we get to the main showdown?!" William yelled, snapping his finger. Seras flew another shadow ball at her opponents. They simply dodged it, letting the ball hit a nearby tree. "Aren't you going to attack back?! You'll never win by just dodging like a coward!"
"He's actually right. We'll never be able to get him as long as Seras is in the way" Vlad comment, observing the battlefield.
"Then how the hell are supposed to get to him, king?" Alucard sneered, earning himself a glare from the king. Alexis just started at Seras' eyes. Though her mind was not in the right place, she was still in there though.
Ashlee looked up at the sky from her position on the ground. Her eyes widened when she saw Alexis with two Alucards'. One of them was the king! He's returned. Her sight then turned to other side of the field. Her face contained shock as she saw Seras and William on another side. Sera's eyes didn't look normal. She must be under a trance!
Using the last of her strength to stand, she stared up at the sky. She had to do something! A bright pink light behind her intruppted her thought. She turned to see a pink glowing sphere floating there. The sphere then took the shape of the queen, only she was more like a hallowgram. The queen looked at Ashlee through her hood, her red eyes shining brightly.
"Milady..." Ashlee whispered as she stood there shocked. The queen looked around at the earth around them, intaking the sight of the mutilated bodies around her. Her look was sadden by such a sight.
"Ashlee." Her gaze turned back to her servant. "Consume the blood from your comrades. Don't let their sacrifice be in vein." Ashlee widened her eyes before nodding. The blood suddenly started to swirl towards her, going into her feet. Her body began to glow red slightly as she wounds began to heal. Her strength was returning to her. Ashlee and the queen looked back up at the battle in the sky.
It seems like they couldn't get to William with Seras in the way. Spreading her arms out, she felt the ground shake slightly before sending sharp, thorned vines towards Seras. Seras looked at the vines, but before she could create and attack, the vines connected to her ankles and pulled her down to the ground forcibly. Landing on her back, she groaned slightly. She moved to sit up, but she was strapped down to the ground as multiple vines wrapped around her. She struggled to get out, moving and groaning while using her strength to get out.
Alexis, Alucard, and Vlad watched in shock as Seras was just pulled to the ground. They looked down to see her wrapped in thorned vines. Ashlee was clasping her fingers in a fist, making sure that the vines hold Seras down.
"Goddamn brat!" William screamed as he sent down an offensive blue spirit ball down. He laughed as it drew closer and she didn't even move a muscle to defend herself. The ball made a smokey contact, but behind it was blue force field. Ashlee was safe. "How?!" William shouted in shock.
"My mother is an amazing vampire. Even in her spirit state, she can use her power as if she was awake. Speaking of that . . ." Alexis watched as her father's began to prepare attack of their own. Alucard pulled out his Jackal with a grin. Vlad pulled out an old rusted gun that resembled the Jackal with a smirk. Both guns were aimed at him, which made him cower in fear. "It's time for her to wake up!"
Gunshots were heard and the bullets were traveling at a very fast speed towards their target. A loud explosion collided with the tower as part of it came down. All three of the floating vampires were smirking.
"That was very nice try" The voice said, making their eyes widened. As the smoke cleared, William was still there with a smirk on his face. However, he was missing his left hand. He widened at the sudden pain before looking at his missing limb. "My hand! Fuck! Not my hand!" All hope was lost for him.
"Why do care about your stupid hand?" Alexis asked as she rolled her eyes at his stupid, dramatic expression.
Ashlee looked up at the progression at the battle. She ignored the struggles of Seras, but she didn't realize that the queen's spirit disappear from her sight. Unknown to everyone on the surface, a familiar coffin lid began to slide off until it landed on the ground. A hand came up from the side as a body came out of it. "Alexis . . ."
A huge heartbeat echoed through Alexis and Vlad, making their eyes widened. Alucard looked at the both of them.
"What's wrong now?"
A loud scream and crack caught their attentions. Williams' body was falling towards the ground. A loud thud erupted as he landed on the solid ground with his own limbs spread around a pile of blood. It was finally over.
The three vampires looked up to see who had defeated him. The hooded woman looked at them for a moment. Her red eyes were present under her red hood. She looked down at Seras on the ground, who in turn had stopped struggling and fell unconscious. Ashlee untangled the vines from her body.
"Mommy?" The hooded woman looked at Alexis for moment before teleporting beside Ashlee's side. The three followed her without a word. When landing, Alucard scooped Seras' body in his arms. His own red hues gazing down at sleeping face. Vlad on the other hand walked over to the woman. His eyes met hers. He got on his knees before taking her hand and kissing it.
"I'm sorry my love for my absence."
"It's alright my king." Her voice made his eyes shot up at her covered face. He knew that behind that darkness, she was smiling. Alucard looked up at the queen with Awe. She really looks beautiful.
"What about Seras Milady?" Ashlee's question made the queen look at her.
"She'll be alright. She'll have a headache, but she'll be back to normal." She looked at Alucard. "Doesn't this bring you relief?" He sneered before looking away. Vlad stood up with a smile before turning to the small little girl.
Alexis's eyes stared at the woman in front of her. "Mommy . . ."
"Hello Alexis" Her mother whispered in a soft tone. With that, Alexis ran to her mother and gave her mother a big hug. Her mother got on her knees to at level height with her. She put her head on her mother's shoulder and began to cry. "You did it Alexis. Thank you my daughter."
"Mommy . . ." She whined as she started to sob out of happiness. Alucard looked back at the scene and let out a small smile. He stood up with Seras' head on his chest.
Letting her mother go, she looked around them to see the mutilated bodies. "Mom, what are going to do about the mess?"She pointed to the bodies. The queen looked at Vlad.
"And you say she has my attitude" She commented at him, earning a chuckle. She turned back around to look at corpses. "Only a few can be saved."
"What do you mean?" Alucard asked.
The queen then put her hands in front of her chest, making a small yellow ball of energy. Once it was formed, she held it over her head. The next scene caused everyone, except Vlad, to widen their eyes. Some of the bodies began to glow a yellow outline as the yellow sphere began to connect to them. All their parts began to float back to the main body and connect, forming the bodies to be one again. Everyone watched in awe. Even Ashlee and Vlad began to glow a bright yellow.
"How is she doing this?" Alexis asked.
"Your mother has let some of the servants consume her blood over the years. They are connected to her and she is connected with them. Since she has the ability to heal herself, she can heal the others she has connections with."
"How can she heal in the first place?" Alucard's voice pitched in this time.
"Though she is a creature of darkness, there is light in her heart. She has been through hell and back, but not even then has she lost her kindness. She has made mistakes that she regrets horribly, but it has helped her learn. I couldn't be any more proud to call her my queen." Vlad looked at with a loving expression.
She let the sphere disappear before putting her hands down. She watched as a few servants stood up and looked around in confusion. One of the servants was Anika. She looked at the group in front of her before letting out a smile. Everyone of the servants did the same as she did before bowing to the king and queen. "Welcome back!" They all shouted in unison.
Seras stirred from her sleep from a groan. Alucard looked down at her. "Master . . . did I miss something?"
He let out a small chuckle before kissing her forehead. "Nothing important." He taunted. She laughed slightly before getting out of his hold. She looked in front of her before widening her eyes as her gaze saw the queen turn to her.
"Welcome back Seras." Her voice held amusement in it. Seras looked at Alexis' smiling face before she nodded. Seras looked back before bowing. The queen came closer to her. "There is not enough gratitude I can show that to you for raising Alexis in my place."
"Your welcome."
"You have my gratitude as well Police Girl" Vlad came forward this time with a smirk. Seras looked at him with a shocked expression on her face.
"Master!? When did you grow a beard?!"
Epilogue
With the war finally ended, peace had once again returned to Romania. There was only one problem for the Hellsing group, getting home.
"Sorry it's taking a long time for you getting you back home." The queen apologized as they sat at the table in the dining hall. She looked at her guest through her hood. Walter and Integra were having breakfast while the vampires were having blood. Integra found it hilarious to have breakfast at two o'clock in the morning.
"It's fine. It allows seeing Alexis longer" Integra replied as she took a bite of her food. Alexis and Seras both made a sad face.
"Also, it allows us to see more of the beautiful country of Romania." Walter chimed in. Vlad could swear that he was just being a big suck up at that moment.
"Thank you for your generous hospitably milady" Seras stated sweetly before drinking some of her blood. Alucard let out a grin as he watched her do so. The queen had managed to get Seras to drink blood, even if was for a little while.
"You're welcome Seras." Her majesty replied with the same sweetness.
"Where is Alexis?" Vlad asked, looking at his mate.
"I believe she is resting up. She has gone through a lot." She replied before sipping more of her blood.
"Milady . . ." The queen looked at Seras. "I was just wondering if you would remove your hood?" Everyone looked at Seras like she was nuts! There was no way she would agree with that!
"If that is what you wish." She replied before grabbing her hood and pulling it down. The only person who looked at her with pure shock from the whole entire company was Alucard. Behind the hood was a future Seras, looking exactly as her past, only with pure red eyes and longer hair.
"I saw that coming." Integra commented, earning a chuckle from everyone. Alucard didn't hear his master's remark. He focused all his attention on the queen. Seras looked at her master.
"Master are you shocked that it's me?" The queen looked at Alucard before standing from her seat. She walked over to her mate and whispered something in his ear. He looked at her with an odd look but he nodded. She then walked over to Alucard, who never kept his eyes off her as she did her actions.
"Excuse me everyone, but I need to speak with Alucard alone." They all nodded before she pulled Alucard's hand, and they walked out the room. Seras looked at her future self with an eyebrow arched. Vlad on the other hand held a smirk on his face.
The queen and Alucard arrived in the throne. She locked the door before turning to him. The look in her red eyes was loving. "Hello master."
"All this time. It was you all this time." The queen nodded to him. "I feel like an idiot for not being able to figure it out."
She let out a small giggle before putting her palm in his cheek. "It's not your fault Vlad. I guess I was too cunning." He let out a small smirk.
"Are you shocked that I have become a queen?" Her reply was a shake from Alucard's head.
"It was bound to happen." She smiled before wrapping her arms his waist. She rested her head on his chest. His warmth then engraved her body. She closed her eyes and in took his scent.
"You're not going to cry are you?" He laughed for a second at that comment.
"Do you want me to?" It was her turn to laugh. However, her laugh caused tears to come out. He looked down at her with a shocked expression. "What's wrong?"
"I'm sorry. I couldn't keep my promise to you!" Her blood escaped from her eyes. His expression softened as he wiped the blood from her eyes with his white covered thumbs.
"A creature of darkness with light in her heart." He murmured as he leaned his face closer to hers. His forehead touching hers. She gave him a skeptic look. Why does he say that? "I was blessed." His lips touched hers lightly. She smiled against the kiss as she wrapped her arms around his neck.
"I never stopped loving you" She said in between kisses. His arms were around her waist as he shared this one last loving moment with her. He pulled back with a sigh.
"You don't know how much relief I feel from you saying that." She smiled as she loosed her grip from him. She looked sadly at the ground. He sensed that she was in some emotional turmoil. "What is it Seras?"
"I need you to do me a favor. It's going to be a selfish one that will hurt both you and my past self, however; it must be done." He understood this term and nodded in agreement.
"What is it?"
Seras walked around the courtyard that the castle had. It was nice with the nature growing around it. In the center of the courtyard was a big tree that provided a nice shade if the sun was out.
"Having fun?" The voice made her jolt slightly. She turned to see her future self staring at her with a smirk. Seras grasped her heart with her hand.
"Whoo! You scared me Milady!" She heard a giggled as the queen walked closer to her. Her gaze is to the tree.
"This tree has been here for my centuries. I believe it's the oldest tree in Romania. It's my favorite spot to read. I come out during the day and read many novels to increase my knowledge on the world."
Seras looked at her with praise. "You must have vast knowledge on everything."
"Not everything." She turned to Seras before sitting down by the tree. She patted to her left, telling Seras to sit next to her. Seras obeyed and kneeled next to her. Her hands on top of her legs. "Seras, I must apologize for all the trouble that I put you through. It was a selfish decision to send her back on both of your halves. I'm deeply sorry."
"It's alright milady. I'm glad you did it. It showed that we are actually great mothers. I just hope you will take care of her."
"Of course. Why wouldn't I?" The queen let out a small smile. "I just hope you'll continue to drink your blood."
"Of course! With all the power I inherit, I'm going to keep drinking until I'll be like you" Her tone held a stubbornness in it.
"Now now, there no need to be egotistic. All my power didn't come from being a fully fledged vampire. I will admit most of it did, but my special powers that you witness came from something else."
"What was it?" The queen looked at her with sorrow.
"I can't tell you. You must learn for yourself." Sera's face became a childish pout, making the queen laugh lightly. The queen reached into her pocked on her right side, before pulling out a small bag. She opened it and pulled out a small blue ocarina. She held the instrument for Seras to take. "I want you to have this. This one instrument will have the answers for you when the time is right."
Taking the instrument, she examined it carefully. "What is it?"
"It's called the Ocarina of Time (1). It has special powers when you play it, however, it's purpose with me has ended. You must carry it with you now." Seras looked at the queen.
"Thank you."
"You don't want to say that." Seras looked at her confused. "I guarantee once you leave, you will hate me so much."
"Why?" The queen looked into her eyes.
"You'll find out very soon. All I can do is apologize ahead of time."
"I could never hate you." The queen widened her eyes. "You don't give me any reason too". The queen finally understood what Vlad meant by calling her with light in her heart. She finally understood.
"Thank you"
"Can I ask you something though?" The queen nodded. "Was it easy becoming queen?"
The queen arched an eyebrow before shaking her head. "No. My path to becoming queen was difficult. Once you understand him, then the path will open up for you."
"WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?!"
The portal was up and ready to go to take the Hellsing group home. They were in the throne room, saying good-byes to Alexis.
"We really are going to miss you" Integra as she pulled back from her hug from the princess.
"I'll miss you so much Auntegra" Both Alucard and Vlad stifled a laugh when they heard that, earning glares from the Seras'. Walter was the next one to hug Alexis.
"It was nice knowing you my dear princess."
"It was nice learning from you my dear butler." Walter chuckled as he pulled back from hug. Alexis walked over to past Seras and was pulled into a big hug.
"Take care of your mother for me" She looked at the queen with smile. The queen sadly looked away. Next was Alucard to say goodbye.
"Take care of yourself you brat." He simply mumbled, and looked away. She gave him a funny look before hugging his knee. He looked down at her before bending down and picking her up in his arms. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him into a tight embrace. Alucard looked at the queen, earning a nod from her. "I'll miss you Alexis."
She got down from Alucard and looked at both him and Seras. "Don't worry you guys. We'll meet again" She let out a bright smile. Vlad and his queen then chuckled before grabbing hands.
"Well we better get going. We still have to deal with our problems." Integra stated as she walked into the portal and was followed by Walter. Alucard looked back the king and queen before going into the portal himself.
"Seras" Seras looked at the queen. The queen stood up and walked over to her past self before poking her forehead with her index finger. Seras just looked at the queen with a weird look. "Trust me, it'll come in handy"
Seras smiled before bowing and walking through the portal and disappearing. The queen watched as the portal disappeared. "I'm sorry for all that you will endure Seras"
That's it! That's the end to Alexis: Draculina Princess. As I stated before, the sequal will be about Seras. If you were clever enough to figure out the clues I left in there, then I suppose that'll you be excited to see if you were write. I have the first chapter written out, all I need to do is type it. However, I will say that I'm going to be take a long break to actually write the squeal so I don't struggle like I did with this story! I also want to mention that I'm sorry for the shortness of this chapter. Hopefully the sequal will be longer Q.Q
(1) I love Legend of Zelda very much. Ocarina of Time is my favorite game, however the purpose for the instrument will actually be in the first chapter in the squeal but I did want to include it. ^_^
If I get enough reviews, I will actually post a preview of the Sequal. Until then, I'll see you next time,
