Welcome kitties to the next chapter.

I didn't know I had similarities to another author. I will have to read their story sometime. Thank you for telling me. ^_^

I do not own Hellsing or Naruto.

Chapter 2:

Secrets come to light

Naruto stared at the man that she saw as her grandfather. She wanted to know what her other grandfather was talking about. Why was he claiming she smelt like a fox. 'Why would I smell like that.' She wondered as her eyes had grown wide as something had clicked in her mind. Alucard watched an amusement to the girl's reaction. "Jiji does it have anything to do with what the villagers call me and on my birthday they hunt me down and call it the annual fox hunt?" She asked as she saw the aged old man's face grow older and shadowed.

Alucard looked up at the others. "What is she talking about? Why is she being hunted like a beast?" He growled out. His eyes now a ruby colored glowed in the darkness. The killer intent rolling off of him was making everyone in the crypt gasp for air. They had never felt anything so powerful in their lives. Naruto pulled on his long red trench coat as she tried to breath. He looked down as he saw the girl slowly begin to turn purple and slowly fade into the abyss. He released his KI and everyone was gasping for air and the pushed themselves up onto their knees.

"I'll explain everything to the both of you. But, first could we return to my office." Asked Sarutobi as he looked at Alucard who had scooped Naruto up in his arms. She had been slowly standing back up but was hit with a dizzy spell. So, it would be best to just carry the girl. "That is fine old man. I shall meet you at that tower of yours." With that said Alucard and Naruto melted into the shadows of the crypt and vanished. The two ANBU looked at their leader and nodded their heads as they vanished in a swirl of leaves.

When they had reappeared in the Hokage's office. Alucard and Naruto were sitter before the old man's desk. But, one thing was different. Alucard now wore a red Fedora and circular orange tinted wireframe sunglasses. He smirked as he looked at the Hokage. "What took you so long?" He asked as he looked over at Naruto who was just staring at him in aww. She had never traveled that fast nor though the shadows.

Sarutobi walked over to his desk and sat down. He put his crystal ball away and looked at the two before him. Neko and Inu stood behind them. They we're curious about what the Hokage was about to tell them. Clearing his throat he looked at everyone present.

"Naru-chan. What I am about to tell you is a SSS-RANK secret. But, my dear girl I have fail you in ways. For those fools out there know your secret so I did the only thing I could at the time. Who ever spoke about it to the younger generation or in general was put to death." He looked down at his hands. Then back up. "The night you were born the 9-tail fox attacked." He told her. Naruto's eyes grow large as she listen to the tale. "Okay Jiji but what does it have to do with me though?" She asked.

He sighed. "Well after you were born your mother was attacked and fatally wounded. For her attacker tried using you as a barging chip. But, when he throw you. Your father caught you and took you away from the fight. Leaving your mother and my wife to fight this person. When your father returned. My wife was dead and the Kyūbi no Kitsune was free from its prison. Your father took your weak and dying mother to your side so she could tell you her goodbyes and that she loved you." He sighed once more as tears welled at his eyes at the memory of his late wife and the death of his friends.

"Your father then left the both of you and went to face the Kyūbi with his Toad summons Gamabunta. They fought long and hard against the masked man and Kyūbi. While battling he formulated a plan to stop the foxes rampage and save this village and all in it. He quickly returned home to your mom and you. He took you both back with him to the battle field and with your mother's remaining strength and her chakra chains she helped hold the Kyūbi while your father summoned the death god to seal it away. While they we're finishing the seal the Kyūbi tried killing you to break the seal. But, it's claws was stopped by your parents. They had used themselves as shields. That is what Jiraiya and myself has had saw when we finally made there to help aid In the battle. Minato's last dying wish was that you would be seen as a hero. For you are the prison of the Kyūbi no Kitsune. If you look down at your belly and push chakra into it. You will see the two seals on it." Said Sarutobi as he looked at the young girl and her vampiric grandfather.

"So, your telling me. That her mother was once the beast prison as well and that her burden was passed to her daughter. For her father could not ask anyone to give their own child if he couldn't give up his own?" Asked Alucard as he looked over at the shocked girl. Who had raises her shirt and had done as told. There in all its horrible glory were the seals that held the Kyūbi no Kitsune at bay.

'Why? WHY?' Naruto screamed in her head as tears slowly rolled down her cheeks. She looked up at her Jiji. "WHY? WHY KEEP THIS FROM ME?" She sobbed out as her tears streamed down her cheeks now. "You know one of those bastards out there could have told me this and in my shock they could have hurt me worst then before or even killed me!" She cried out.

This now had Alucard looking at the old man with rage. "What have you done to keep her safe these past years?" He question.

Inu stepped forth. "Neko and myself and several other ANBU have watched over her and did our best to keep her safe though the years. I have personal killed several ANBU for allowing her to get hurt during their watch." He said as he stepped back. Neko nodded her head. "As well have I. I have even taken the lives of several villagers that have hurt her." Spoke the purple haired woman.

Alucard looked at them and at the young girl as she nodded her head. She had seen her protectors do this first hand. "Now that I am here. I will take full charge of her safety. As she is the last heir to the Hellsing and Uzumaki family." He spoke.

Naruto looked at him in shock no one besides her ANBU and Jiji and Ramen stand people had ever cared about her well being. She wiped her tears away and looked at her Jiji. "Jiji?" She asked.

This drew him to her. "Yes, Princess?" He asked.

"The one who defeated the Kyūbi no Kitsune 13 years ago on this day was the 4th Hokage." She said.

"Yes, Princess it was him who did that." Said Sarutobi.

She looked down shyly and pressed her fingers together. "Then that would make him my father?" She asked.

When she had asked this. The whole room had gone silent. Nothing was heard. It was a deafening silence. "Yes, Princess. Minato Namikaze was your father. Along with Kushina Uzumaki-Namikaze. Your mother was a fierce Warrior on the battlefield. Her crimson locks would fly up into nine tail like locks as she grew enraged in battle. Even her eyes took on a crimson glow. But, I was told that happen before she had the fox sealed within her." He told her. Alucard smirked at this little piece of information. His blood was still going strong and his vampiric traits still showed in his children. 'Integra you would be glade to hear of your strong and prideful daughter. She was a grand warrior.' He thought to himself.

"Then I am the last Hellsing-Uzumaki-Namikaze." She said as she looked at everyone. "Ummm…Jiji?" She asked once more.

"Yes, Princess?" He answered once more.

But, before she could speak. "Where is the Clan home?" Asked Alucard. He had stepped in knowing that was what she was wondering and maybe. Just maybe she could live there. He could tell that was what she was thinking.

"Well the Clan house belongs to your mother Kushina. The one that Minato had was destroyed awhile back when he fought someone for the right to court your mother. But at that time they had been already married for awhile and your father had moved everything of his to your mother's place. For it was in the middle of the woods near training ground 44." Answered the 3rd. "If you wish I and the others here will show you to your new home. But, be warn that I have one Jonin that has made training ground 44 or otherwise known as the forest of Death her personal training ground as well as maybe her new home. I am not sure on that last part." He said as he looked at Neko. She just shook her head as she didn't know either.

"Very well then. Show us the way. I need to inspect the place as well." Alucard trailed off as he looked at the 3rd Hokage. "I need to feed." He said.

Sarutobi stared at him. It took several seconds for this to click in his mind. "Ooh….well Mr. Alucard. I could send Neko to the hospital to get several packs of blood and in the morning I could have Raven or Inu drop off some more." He said as he looked a little uneasy at that thought of drinking blood.

Devilish grin crept across Alucard lip. "That will be fine. I will inform you any and all that attack my grandchild will die at my hands. So, if you have a missing villager or two. Don't worry for they had done something against Naruto and I will not stand idly by and allow an injustice to happen to her." He said as he slowly raised to his feet. "As well. I will need all accounts that belong to the girl. For I will not allow her to run around in that orange monstrosity any longer." He said as he looked at the girls orange jump suit.

Naruto looked down at her clothes and back up at Alucard. "What's wrong with what I'm wearing?" She asked as she pouted at her grandfather.

Alucard raised his eyebrow at her as he looked her over. "My dear girl. You are a moving target and one that seems to be set up to draw all fire to them. I will not allow you to be needlessly sacrificed to save some worthless fool." He said as he turned to face Sarutobi who held a black scroll with the Hellsing-Uzumaki crest on it and a orange scroll with the Namikaze crest on it. "In both scrolls holds some money as well as bank books, check books, and all business and land and other things that belong to you and her." Said the aged leader.

Alucard took and opened the black scroll and he focused his chakra into it and a small puff of smoke popped out about 200,000 in cash. A smirk crept across his lips as he took out 50,000 and slide it over to the old man. "This will cover all cost for 6 months worth of blood to be sent to the clan house each month and I will pay again in another 6 months. Also when you select your predecessor make sure they will know of this little arrangement we have made." He said as his eyes flashed crimson to ruby to a deep rich red.

Naruto looked in aww. She had never seen this much money before. She looked up at Alucard as he grinned at her. "So, are we going shopping then? For I don't think there will be any food at the house and you don't like my outfit." She said as she pouted at the last part.

"Yes, along the way we will have the ANBU who is gathering some blood for me to us at the clothing shop." Said Alucard as he looked over at Neko. Neko looked over at 3rd with a nervous look as the old man nodded his head. She vanished in a swirl of leaves as Inu watched this go one. 'This foolish village isn't going to know what hit it and sensei I hope this is for the best that he is here for her.' He thought to himself.

Heaven

Kushina watched in the large pool of water. "My poor baby. Happy Birthday Naru-chan. I'm sorry for forsaking you with my burden." She the redhead as a single tear rolled down her check. Her sister walked over to her. Kush-chan what's wrong? Asked Mito as she placed her small hand on her baby sister's shoulder.

Kushina looked up and softly smiled. "It's Naru-chan's 13th birthday and she has found out about her two burdens. But, it appears great grandfather Alucard is going to care for her now. He doesn't like the idea of the fox being sealed in her." Said Kushina as she looked back down at the pool and at the tall thin raven hair man.

Mito looked down at the pool and gasped. "He's free? But, father said never call upon him unless there was no hope and he will arise and save those of his kin." She told her baby sister. Kushina looked up at her once more. "I think this classifies as that. Naru-chan is alone and those bastards in that Kami forsaking village try killing her each year. They don't want her to get stronger. They want her as a fool." She told her eldest sister. You could see her eyes flicker red. "I for one am glade that Devil is alive once more. Maybe, just maybe he will change how they treat her. If all else fails he can spirit her away to somewhere new." She said as she saw her husband walking over to them with a black chain dragging behind him. The Shinigami had given him this little freedom to go and watch his daughter grow up as well as spend a little time with his wife.

Minato smiled at the two crimson hair woman. "Hello my love. Hello Mito-san. How is our daughter today?" He asked as he looked down at the pool before him to see a raven hair man dressed in red place his hand on his daughters shoulder.

"Whose that man and what is he doing with Naru-chan?" Asked Minato.

Village streets

Alucard placed his hand on Naruto's shoulder. "Tell me. Are you training to be a ninja?" He asked her as he looked at the shops around them. She brighten up and smiled at him. "Yeah, I am. Tomorrow is my graduation and I'll become a genin." She told him. He smirked and saw a shop called, "Wolf's Fang". "Then we shall get you properly fitted for the life of a shinobi." He spoke as he walked up to the odd little Shop with a broken door that was covered with a sheet. Alucard pushes the sheet aside and saw a tall man that stood about 6'0 ft. and had several scares on his cheek and steel grey eyes and salt and pepper hair. The man looked up at Alucard and wiped his hands on his black smith apron. "Something I could do for you?" He asked in a gruffy voice.

Alucard smirked at the man before him. "Yes, I want to get my granddaughter fit with the proper Shinobi attire and weapons." He said as he looked around the little shop. He saw something that was a little out of place. There off in the corner behind the shopkeepers counter was a large black barrel of gun powder. "Tell me. Do you make custom weapons?" Asked the ancient vampire.

The man fallowed Alucard's sight and saw him looking at the gun powder. "Yeah, I do. You got a schematic or blueprint of a design you want. I'll do it." He said as his sight went to the blonde hair girl. He smiled at her. "Tell me kiddo what do you need?" He asked.

Naruto was looking around all wide-eyed at all the different weapons and clothing and special ANBU armors. "I don't know where to start." She said as she turned to face him. Part of her feared when he saw her he would throw her out just like the other shop keepers.

"Well off to your left are all the kunoichi outfits and armors. But, I don't carry much orange but for those infernal skirts Anko likes." Said the owner. As he pointed her to the far left of the shop where stood a mannequin dressed in all black with a crimson duster on. Naruto looked up at the mannequin and walked around it. 'This is what a true Shinobi looks like?' She half wondered and half asked herself. As the finishing piece to the mannequin it had crimson hair and twin swords in each hand. At the bottom on it was a small plaque. "Kushina Uzumaki. The red hot habanero. Aka The Crimson Death." She slowly read this. Alucard had walked over to see what had made her stop in her tracks. What he saw made him smirk and laugh. "I see. Do you wish to be just like her?" He asked Naruto. She slowly nodded her head and looked up at him.

"Very well." Said Alucard as he turned to the shop owner. "I want her outfitted just like her mother here." He said. The older man stood still for a long moment as he looked at the raven hair man and the blonde girl next to. He studied the girls face and the shape of her eyes and the three whisker marks on her cheeks. He smirked. "So, the day has finally came has it?" He asked as he walked from around the counter and vanished behind a black curtain. Naruto looked up at Alucard who just shrugged his shoulders. Sarutobi just watched with shock etched onto his face.

In stood outside the shop awaiting for Neko to return and he also had pulled out his favorite little orange book. The villagers around him went on with their day and business. For they had to finish setting up for the Kyūbi Festival and the hunt for later that night. But, one think they didn't know was that they would become the prey tonight.

Okay kitties. We leave off there. Yeah I know Alucard is a little more OC this chapter. But, hey I am enjoying this side of him. Anyways next time he'll have some fun and dinner of fool.
