Integral is immediatly put into surgery. It isn't even attempted that she be brought to a hospital; her doctors set up a surgical center right where she fell in her office. Alucard and Seras watch from the door as the proceedings go on to save the Hellsing Leader's life, but it's unclear what the outcome will be. Seras sees the seriousness and intensity in Alucard's eyes, recognizing that this was about 'the master of her master.' Not sure what to say, she leaves the No Life King alone. |
While Integral is under the effects of anesthesia, Alucard creates a dream-like illusion in her mind, replaying the events from her early adolescance when she first took over Hellsing. She sees her father, Arthur (commonly mistaken as Lionel) telling her about vampires, and that he wishes he could still teach her so much more. He warns her to go to the underground prison if something should go wrong; a great power lies there that will protect her. Soon after, Arthur dies, leaving Integral to fend for herself against her plotting Uncle Richard. |

Remembering her father's words, Integral goes to the prison far beneath the Hellsing estate, crawling through the air ducts. There, she finds a large metal door defaced by strange markings and sygils. Richard catches her, and as she tumbles within the room, is shot in the arm, her blood going all over the floor. Before her is the husk of a demon, and not a moment after, it awakens, drinking her blood off the floor. The demon destroys Integral's pursuers, then addresses her. |
She shows no fear of him, and quickly, the vampire Alucard bows to his Master and she shoots her treacherous uncle herself. Alucard shows himself as he is now, as well as then, telling Integral that she's still that same determinned little girl. In response, Integral thanks him. When she wakes up, she looks to her side and notices Alucard just then leave the room. She understands he'd been watching over her the entire time. He really was the Knight she expected to find in that cell. |

Elsewhere, Incognito performs an unusual ceremony. Chanting in an unknown tongue, then shooting at these massive crystalin shards (ice?), he releases the once-SAS freaks that are now his unyeilding servants. The ghoul-like freak soldiers all gather around the white demon and he ends the ceremony with what seems like a war-cry of sorts. I still don't get this scene. |
