《Spike Hellsing Autobiography: The Chosen》Chapter Six - New Opportunities
Advertisement
Halina didn't warn us of the darkest timeline right away, she let the seeds of our developing kingdom bloom for awhile. A long while. According to my wishes Halina allowed me to slumber, carefully balancing the intense time dilation caused by the gravity of the star as to synchronize my age with the kingdom of the chosen. I used this time to perfect my physical body, replacing every cell one by one. Deep within my lucid dream, I set automated processes within my own mind to maximize my own efficiency, and I lost myself.
I was awoken as the 1,000th anniversary of the founding of The Kingdom of The Chosen approached. To my surprise Halina had recruited a group of chosen of her own. There was Sam, a human with some cat ancestry; it was difficult to discern her gender at first because she was more comfortable masquerading as a boy. Also there was Tflame13, a remarkably advanced android specializing in ranged weaponry. Grunk was a half-giant, a very simple man with a colourful mohawk and a door knob for a nose piercing. And Mimi, she was also a cat person but with much more recent feline ancestry, we call them Nekos; Mimi was a purple haired witch who enjoyed to grow marijuana. [Plus others, I will update this if I re-acquire this information.]
As we prepared for the first millennial fair Halina informed me of some of her celebration plans. The desert world where our kingdom had originally been developed was a bustling hotspot of activity. The absurdly low land cost and incredibly advanced technology made it very easy for one to cut out a life for one's self. Yes, it had started as a penal colony; but thanks to our automated security force, it had also quickly become one of the safest places to live.

This is where our new chosen ones had begun their quest. Halina had recruited them, and their first mission was to wake me from my slumber. Halina was able to teleport the chosen aboard my living spaceship, T.H.E. B.O.S.S., where my vampiric symbiote's tendrils had burst from my chest to feed on The Boss's artificial blood. The chosen ones were able to enter my dream by touching my lucid dream crystal. I don't believe anyone can remember what happened inside that dream... or perhaps nightmare, but when I awoke I was in a strange bloodlust; centuries of artificial blood must have left me drained of some kind of vital essence. Unfortunately for Mimi, she was the closest one to me when I awoke, and I fed on her. I drained her almost completely dry and in my own panic, and perhaps as a result of the dream; I gave her my blood, and allowed her to be reborn as a vampire.
Next on the list was Emalft, and Halina had something special planned for his reawakening. As I mentioned before, Emalft was also sleeping. He had decided to travel to the furthest point of the desert world from the city. And as a druid, he wanted to become a tree to complete his druidic journey. Much like in the darkest timeline, Emalft's vampiric symbiote had spread into his limbs. But not only that, his plant armor had grown into an unbelievably massive tree, and his symbiote had spread into that as well.
I traveled with these young chosen ones, who endearingly called themselves The Steam Punks. Their skills were quite impressive, so I stayed back and allowed them to lead the way to Emalft's Tree. We were attacked by several blood thirsty roots as we approached, but they weren't a huge threat.

Once we arrived we could see the tree had taken a strange streamline shape, it had weird openings and branches scattered across it's seemingly mutated & random form. We entered the tree and made our way to the center. There, we found Emalft in his own slumber; the deep sleep of a vampire, torpor.
I was able to contact Emalft using our vampiric connection, and inform him of the situation.
The moment he awoke the massive tree he had made his home for these many years began shudder. This was it, the moment Halina had been preparing for. Before we all knew it, we where pushed to the floor. Looking for an opening to see what was going on outside, I noticed an opening quickly flicker with some sort of a transparent membrane. Beyond it I saw the ground rapidly falling away, as well as seeds and leaves scattering away from the tree's branches.
Today was the 1,000th anniversary of The Kingdom of The Chosen, as well as my 1,000th birthday. On this day Emalft's Tree became a space ship, but not only that, it seeded the entire desert world with plant-life. But Halina wasn't done. At the same time, she brought The Kingdom of The Chosen back to the desert world, hovered it above it's sister kingdom, and proceeded to dock two kingdoms together, returning The Kingdom to it's seat. Leaving an immaculate city sitting high above the city and jungle below.
I guess it's about time to give this world a proper name, especially since the nickname "desert world" hardly describes its features anymore.
We all spent a lot of time developing our crafts, making connections, and refining our different projects. Mimi was able to create a marijuana farm inside of a pocket dimension she kept in her purse.
