Please give feedback due to this being my first story on the internet. As stated in the description I do not own any of the characters. I only slightly know German and will rarely use it for Rip Van Winkle, I will mainly use it as an accent, replacing the W's with V's and possibly V's with F's. If it bothers anyone I will fix in possible other chapters. This will also take place after the events of Hellsing as if Rip was reborn in Equestria mysteriously.

I awoke in the night feeling terrible, my head pounded and my back was even worse. I looked up to see a creature looking down on me in shock and surprise, it had a.... horn and wings with a horse, no, pony's figure? "Who are you?" I said quietly and scared.
"I am the princess of this land, Luna," she replied in an equally soft voice as if she could tell I was in pain.
"What are you? I haven't heard your name before and I can apperently understand you too." I found myself saying as I tried to stand up to no avail.
"Please, do not try to stand, you have cuts everywhere. As if you were in a fight," she said calmly," and as for what I am, I am Princess Luna of Equestria, an Alicorn, and who might you be?"
"Mein name ist Rip Van Winkle, a vampire made by the Doc of the Milennium army." I proudly stated finally standing up
Sadly she looked at me an spoke, "Milennium army? The Doc? I'm afraid I don't know either of those things."
"Vas? I'm not being controlled by the Milennium anymore? I'm free?" I looked around happily knowing I'm not under control anymore.
"Um no, you aren't controlled by anyone here." Looking at me funny she approached," though I think you need some help, you don't look too good."
"Ja, I feel terrible," I said rubbing my head with a...... Hoof?
"Don't worry I'll help you, please, come with me Rip Van Winkle." as she started walking away
I followed happily wondering what could be in store for me in this new world filled with...... talking ponies. Eventually we made it to an incredible castle dimly lit in the night sky. Suddenly realizing the situation, I shook a little knowing now I could be a prisoner of this strange land of, what was it? Oh! Equestria.
She turned to me," is something the matter? You're shaking."
"Uh nein," I replied shakily," everything is fine."
She smiled sweetly and turned her attention back to walking. With scenarios racing through my mind I actually considered running away by this point. But I didn't and continued on following her hoping for the best. As we made it to a pair of doors, a few guards walked up to me demanding my name. "What is your name and what business do you have with our princess?" a large male asked me.
"I-I um don't have business with her, sh-she uh found me passed out in the woods there," I pointed to the woods with a hoof.
"Do not freat, she is a friend." Luna said, the guards immedietly moved aside.
"Um thank you," I said walking past them
The guard continued to look at me as if he were angry with my presence. Then he shut the door behind us, letting me know he was beat and he knew it. "Are they uhm always like that with new p-ponies?" I was still a little distraught by the confrontation.
"Yes," she smiled warmly," but they just show how much they care for me and my older sister, now come, I'll let you get some rest in a guest room."
"Danke, I vould love a good bed to sleep in instead of the ground." I laughed a little still slightly worried about the possible consequences of being around this princess, who even has a potential overprotective sister.
I thought to myself," this can go two vays, fery gut or fery bad, I just hope for the former."
"You have a funny accent," she giggled which made me smile," what is it called where you came from?"
Proudly smiling I replied," Ve call it German."
"German? Hmm I think I like the sound of it," she smiled at me
"Really?" I smiled wider," so you like other cultures?"
"Oh yes, it's wonderful learning something new," she said eagerly
In my thoughts," what is this feeling? I can't help but to think I like her, but we've only just met one another, gosh this is so confusing I can't stand it."
"I can tell we will get along," I laughed," I think I would like to meet your sister too if that's fine with you."
She nodded," yes, I think she would like to meet you too."
We finally got to the guest room she had told me about. It was a rather good sized room with a bed on the back wall with book cases surrounding it. As I looked more, the books looked rather old like they were there for centuries. "Wow, how old are these books?"
"I'd have to say around 300 years old." casually she said as if it was a normal thing.
"Th-three hundred years old?" I couldn't believe my ears, these books looked like they were written yesterday!
She giggled," yes, 300 years old, my sister and I have lived over a thousand years."
"I um, I'm going to lay down if you don't mind." I started to feel heavy, maybe I had fallen ill and this was all just an odd dream.
"Suit yourself Rip Van Winkle," she smiled," I'll check in on you in the morning."
A little while after she left I walked to the bed and lied down, there's no way this is real. It's just not possible. Had she really lived over a thousand years, and her sister more than that! This is absolutely insane, even Alucard is only 568 years old. I must be sick, all of this is a dream and I will wake up as a member of the Milennium once again as soon as I fall asleep.
