Synopsis
Hellsing soldiers are sent to a castle, where they come across a corpse. Seras senses something is wrong, but the unit are ordered to pull out. Outside, the SAS have arrived, under the command of Second Lieutenant Parker. Parker orders Integra to withdraw her forces, stating that the castle is believed to be a weapons depot for the IRA. Integra reluctantly does as asked. When she returns home, Walter informs her that her sister Laura has arrived.
Seras again senses something wrong and sees Laura walking up some stairs. Walter appears and explains who Laura is, but Seras thinks it's odd that Laura and Integra are sisters since they look nothing alike. Walter then clutches at his heart and excuses himself. Back at the castle, Parker wonders why all his mean are seemingly lost in the castle. He then realizes the guy with him has turned into a ghoul. Inside the castle, SAS member Paul Wilson is asked by Incognito if he wants to live forever. Paul says he does, so Incognito has some creatures implant him with several freak chips.
Seras realizes Integra is in danger, but when she tries to go to her office, Walter gets in the way and even attacks her. Alucard finds Incognito and says the two of them are alike. The two are about to fight when Incognito says they're different, as Alucard doesn't have a master any more. It is revealed that Laura isn't Integra's sister, but she is in fact a baobhan sith. Integra realizes she's never even had a sister, but Laura is about to kill her. She stabs a knife into her stomach and says she was told to turn Integra into a ghoul. She bites down on Integra's neck.
Alucard then arrives and kills Laura with a single shot from the Jackal. Integra picks up the knife and plunges it into her own neck. As she collapses, she says that there is impure blood in her veins...
