Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: Fresh start

They ran for three hours straight without any rest. They eventually saw a kingdom in the distance. "Kids hold on tight", Alucard said as both the kids tightened their grips on his arms.

Nolan and Alucard then accelerated towards the kingdom and jumped over the gate, landing on the other side. Alucard then let the kids down.

"You know there's a gate here sir Nolan", one of the guards near the gate said to Nolan walking up to him. "I know", Nolan responded in a high pitched voice.

"Alucard, you take the kids to the guild. I'll go chat with the rest of the court and the king", Nolan said as he ran off towards the direction of the castle.

"Let's go kids", Alucard said as he gestured to Christopher and his sister,Christine. Now that Alucard got a chance to see the two kids properly, he saw that they looked too similar, like they were twins.

"Hey Christopher, how old are you and your sister?", Alucard asked,"I'm 10 years old and she is 9 years old", Christopher responded.

Alucard nodded his head at Christopher's response. They all walked through the kingdom, taking in the view of their new surroundings.

Christopher and Christine looked around in awe and wonder. On their way to the guild the children would often stand and stare at things even playing with some at time, Alucard bought most of the things for the pair.

When they got to the Vampire Hunters Guild, Alucard opened the door and entered into a tavern-cafe room filled with dozens of Vampire Hunters that have come to the guild to accept rewards, take on missions and unwind after a successful mission.

When Alucard opened the door , every fell silent and looked at him. "Alucard!!", they all shouted. Alucard waved back at them as they all resumed what they were doing.

Alucard walked towards the receptionist table at the end of the room with Christopher and Christine following close behind.

When they reached the receptionist table they were treated by a 70 year old woman white grey white hair and a very gorgeous face with little to no wrinkles and hour glass body, making her look 30 years old.

"Hello Anitha", Alucard said as he gentle smiled at her. " Nolan told me", Anitha responded. Alucard scoffed in annoyance and muttered to himself,"Nolan your dead".

Anitha chuckled at Alucard then glanced downwards at Christopher and Christine.

"And who are these little gems", Anitha said as she hopped over the counter and hugged them both then lifted them into the air.

"We found these two at the village. As you can see my father found another vessel ", Alucard said in a hushed voice. Anitha place the children down and hopped over the counter again.

"So he healed from what my grandfather had done to him", Anitha said in a distressed voice. Alucard simply nodded and sat the kids down on a table and brought them food.

Christopher and Christine at the food up quickly and more had to be brought. Not because They both were that hungry but because Christopher was a newly born Dracula half-breed, he was particularly hungry.

Alucard sat with the kids and observers them. After eating a 14 course meal, Christopher finally stopped eating and let out a large exhaled. Immediately as he did so Alucard pulled back Christine and held her up in mid air.

When Christopher opened his eyes after exhaling, he was shocked at the sight before him. The table and everything on it was frozen in ice. Alucard looked at the table in shock, and so did everyone else who noticed.

Anitha looked up from a deep thinking and saw this as well. She glanced at Alucard who glanced back. "No. To early for training, try when he is 14, atleast", Alucard said, burning any idea Anitha had in her head.

Nolan entered the room all happy and smiling. He noticed everyone in the room was fixated on something, he walked forward more and saw Christopher sitting in front of a frozen table, in shock.

"Al", Nolan called out to Alucard. "I know. And thought he was a flame vamp", Alucard responded.

Christopher looked at everyone with a shocked expression on his face. "Well Alucard, help out your new siblings will yah", Nolan said as he walked past the crowd and entered a door a few feet besides the counter.
