Chapter 7

Seras

The day went by as usual; Sir Integra insisted that she could manage the Royal Order of Protestant Knight's affairs, although she needed Jefferson to give her coffee instead of tea, black with 5 sugars. Jasmine was a little better; her coffee only needed 2 sugars. Today Mr. and Mrs. Fenton took it upon themselves to show off some of their anti-ghost weapons, which Sir Integra admitted was quite impressive. Seras stayed up all day to ensure that nothing went wrong. Danny was acting very cautiously the whole day, watching over his older sister like a hawk protecting a baby chick, it was actually quite adorable.

After Dinner Danny approached her, "Anything?" Seras shook her head, "Nothing, I haven't seen, heard, smelled or sensed anything undead. The problem is that it's the daytime; my powers are very limited in the day." "Man," Danny said, "I wish I had a vampire sense, or something." "So being around me hasn't affected you at all?" Seras asked, curious. "Not that I know," Danny said, "but that's not important right now. We need to come up with a way to find the guy that's attacking Sir Integra and Jazz. You have any ideas?" I…never really thought about how to find him… "Well, I reckon we need to get Sir Integra's permission to leave the Manor; then we can search the nearby areas, the problem is that Sir Integra never lets me out unless there is definitely a vampire attacking innocents. We don't really have any solid proof that a vampire is causing her and Jasmine's dreams, which is our biggest obstacle." "So what, we just sit here and do nothing!?" Danny angrily asked.

"Unfortunately, yes," Seras told him. "What's the use of having so many powers if you can't protect anyone?" Danny said aloud. "Listen Danny, this isn't some children's show where you can just magic up a way to find the bad guy and beat him. This is the real world where a lot of times we can't find him until he makes a big move. We'll wait until tonight, I want you to go into Sir Integra's dream and fight off her attacker. Maybe he'll leave a clue or something." "And just let him do whatever the Hell he wants to my sister!?" Danny yelled. "It's not like that! Last night he clearly went after Sir Integra first, it's obvious she's his main target. Your sister was probably just an afterthought for him," Seras told him. Danny sighed and turned away, "I'll see what I can do. You have any idea what to expect?" "Sir Integra may dream about Master Alucard…or Walter, her old butler. The two of them practically raised her after her Father died," Seras said, and disappeared into the shadows.

Danny

Danny woke up at night to see Seras next to his bed. "Come on, Sir Integra is finally asleep, we need to act quickly," Seras told him. Danny went Ghost and flew through the mansion, following Seras as she ran to Sir Integra's room. Inside Danny saw Sir Integra in bed; she looked exhausted, as if she had used up all her energy during the day. "Okay, here goes," Danny said as he became intangible and floated over to her. "Be careful," Seras told him, and Danny entered Sir Integra's body and mind. Inside Integra's dream he turned invisible and heard…laughing? Danny looked around and noticed it was a bright and sunny day at Hellsing Manor. Danny followed the laughing to the front, where he saw a young girl wearing a white shirt and blue skirt with long platinum blonde hair and glasses with blue eyes.

So that's Sir Integra as a kid? She looks a lot happier. He watched the girl running around kicking a ball with an old butler. "Careful Integra, we don't want to get the ball too close to Alucard now," the old butler said, Danny figured he must have been Walter. Danny then looked as the young Integra looked over at a shadow with glowing red eyes. Danny shuddered just looking at it, that's Dracula. He's even creepier than I thought. The shadow creature then walked into the light and Danny saw Alucard. He was a tall, thin man in a black suit and boots with white gloves and a red overcoat and fedora hat, and a pair of orange sunglasses on his nose which did nothing to hide his red glowing eyes.

"Why can't I play with my new master, Angel?" Alucard asked; his voice was a lot deeper than Danny expected. "Your idea of play usually involves dismemberment and gore," Walter said. "You didn't complain about that during the War, and I remember you having just as much fun as I was," Alucard said, and Danny saw the old butler wave his arms and shining lines appear in the air. "No fighting you two," the young Integra admonished, "It's time for Afternoon Tea anyway. Please bring it to the garden, Walter." "No, I don't think I will," the butler said, then all of a sudden his black hair turned blonde and his grey eyes glowed green as he became a little shorter and his face became more handsome and younger.

"You!" Integra yelled; she was now an adult. "You're mine," the blonde man sneered, "Now and forever." Danny quickly took control of Alucard's body and punched the blonde man away. His mind was filled with memories of Integra, of Alucard killing hundreds, thousands without mercy using guns, his bare hands, and powers that came straight out of a horror novel. This guy is Evil! Danny thought as he then got between Integra and the blonde man. "You're not doing anything to my Master, scum," Danny said in Alucard's body. Danny-in-Alucard's-body then drew two massive handguns from his coat and pointed them at the blonde man.

"Begone," he said and started firing away. The blonde man dodged his bullets then all of a sudden the ball Integra had been playing with came speeding towards him. Danny shot the ball and turned around to pistol whip the vampire as it ran towards Integra while he was distracted. The vampire was sent flying and Danny-in-Alucard's-body fired away with his guns, turning the vampire into bits of meat and blood. The bits of meat then reformed back into a man who said, "I will have you yet!" "Oh shut up," Danny said and shot him right between the eyes, making the vampire disappear in a cloud of dust.

Seeing that his job was done, Danny left Dream Alucard's body and came out of Integra's body. "Is it done?" Seras asked him. "I think so, I shot him a lot and he said he 'would have her yet', then I shot him right between the eyes and he disappeared into dust," Danny told her.

"Come on, Sir Integra needs her sleep. And we should make sure that he doesn't hurt your sister too," Seras said, and they respectively flew and ran to Jazz's room. Inside Danny heard his sister start to whimper and quickly overshadowed her. Jazz's dream was worse than he could imagine. He spotted his sister shirtless, crying and running away from the blonde man, who was laughing as he chased her. "You enjoyed it and you know it," the blonde man yelled at her. "And you'll enjoy this one even more." HELL NO! Danny didn't bother staying invisible, instead he flew down like a bolt of divine retribution as fast as he could, crushing the blonde man when he hit him.

Danny floated away from him, "Get up you slime ball. I know that you can take more than that." "Danny," Jazz said, "Stay back!" Danny yelled at her, his hands glowing with power, getting ready to fight the blonde monster that had tormented his sister. Before he knew it the blonde man was right in front of him, his face looking like a too large mouth filled with fangs. Danny raised his arm to defend himself and felt the fangs clamp onto his arm, then screamed as the blonde man jerked his head, tearing his arm off. "AAHH!" Danny and Jazz screamed in pain and horror. Danny and Jazz watched as the blonde man tore a chunk off his severed arm and ate it like a shish kabob. "Your defenses are no match for me," the blonde man told Jazz.

He thinks I'm part of Jazz's dream, Danny realized. I'm in a dream…Danny quickly concentrated and his severed arm was quickly replaced with a new one, "Alright!" Danny flew over and clocked the blonde man on the jaw, hard enough to hear it break. "That's for invading my sister's dreams!" Danny flew faster and kicked him straight into the air, "That's for tearing my arm off!" Danny then pounded him back into the ground as hard as he could, the blonde man exploded when he struck the ground. As he started reforming Danny sucked in a mighty breath, "This is for being a perverted psycho!" Danny unleashed a Ghostly Wail and kept on Wailing until he saw the remains of the blonde man turned to dust. Danny then flew out of Jazz's dream. Seras was waiting outside the door, "Did it work?" she asked him.

Danny turned back into his Human form, "I think so, I used my Ghostly Wail on him and he turned to dust like in Sir Integra's dream." "You should get some sleep, I'll wake you up if anything happens," Seras assured him. Danny yawned, "Thanks, Good Night." "Good Night," Seras told him, and Danny went back to bed.
