Andrew Bennett is on his way to the Hall of Justice with an important message. Mary, Queen of Blood, ruler of the vampires and the only defining reason there is peace amongst humans and vampires, has been murdered. The peace she has kept between the races, allowing vampires to live unseen in the world, has been torn and something worse than a few vampires is on its way; the genocide of the human race.
After her father passed away, the Hellsing organization was left in the hands of a young girl, Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing, now a woman at age 22, and the last descendant of the Helsing blood line. Her ancestor, Abraham Van Helsing, was the leader of the Order of Protestant Knights, who protected the world from creatures of the night such as vampires, and yes, the Bram Stoker story is true, Abraham Van Helsing did indeed kill Dracula, but instead of killing him permanently, Helsing turned Dracula into his servant, who to this day remains the Hellsing Organizations most powerful weapon against any and all threats.

The year is 1207, and the Vampires are a ruling class in the land, earning protection pay from local farms and villages as they defend humans, as well as themselves, from the Werewolves that roam the land. However, the vampires have been trying to make werewolves their slaves, to no avail, until one night, a miracle happens. The first of his kind, Lucien is born, the first of the Lycans.
