Prologue

The bat-winged woman reclined against the chimney of what could only be described as a stone hut with a poorly made wooden roof. Below her, she watched through the cracks as a young mother sung a lullaby to frighten away Lilith and the rest of the incubus and succubus family. As she leaned back she felt no repulsion from the song, only a cruel hatred of the master of the castle this town was cursed to unwittingly build itself around.

She played with her blonde hair, honey blonde at the roots that lightened to a sun bleached yellow. It was a nervous habit, for all of her bravado she was deeply frightened of Castlevania, she new the stories all too well, succubi that go in don't come out. An eternal prisoner, like her sister, where they are quickly corrupted by the blasphemy of the place and become what people know them to be, murderers and seductresses.

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath and released a long sigh, her sister was in there somewhere, Richter promised her that much and more. He spoke of how Alucard destroyed the castle and murdered her, but still she hoped. It took ten years of fighting, ten years of hunting down oracles and using her magic to charm them into revealing the secrets to the castle's resurrection. Oh the rage she felt when she learned that Death had beaten her to it, all her hard work for nothing.

Her mind drifted back to the last time she had seen her sister. Her parents lived in a tiny hut high in the Alps, a basin shaped valley that could only be reached by those gifted by flight, the perfect place for a demonic family to live in peace where there were no Draculas and no Belmonts.

There were no other children; just each other and they were inseparable. She was the wise older sister of ten and her little sister the adoring five year old who thought her sister could do anything. But even two best friends need a little "time apart", her little sister Amanda had taken her shell necklace without asking and broke it!

When she discovered it, she stormed out of the house after her peacemaker mother promised to make her another one. Maybe she would make her another one but this was her favorite and you can't replace your favorite.

So she stomped and growled through angry tears to her favorite place a huge oak next to a small creek fed pond. It wasn't long before she heard rustling through the bushes and she sighed angrily when she saw the little shadow beside her. Oh, she couldn't even look at the little red haired girl.

"Sarwah."

The little bat-winged girl could never say her name right. "It's 'Sarah', you stupid girl! S-A-R-A-H" she thought to herself.

Amanda's voice was so tiny, so sad that she had hurt her sister's feelings. "I'm sowwy I broke yo necklace…"

"Go away," the older sister cried out in her anger. "I hate you!"

And there it was, the last words she said to her sister, "I hate you." When she finally returned home her family's hut was on fire, her parents were dead, and Death was carrying away her sister, and she was left with the guilt of saying those three words to her best friend.

"Richter told me she had turned evil." She spoke softly to herself. "I know it was my fault, Amanda, but I'll find a way to save you." She looked down at her flexed clawed fingers, deep burgundy red that matched her glistening pouting lips. "I know I will."

Her azure eyes looked up at the devil-made palace, unsheathed her poorly crafted longsword and held it at her side, bent her knees and took to the cool night air with a single clap of her bat-like wings. She flew quickly to the old castle, which was only a few miles away and on top of a small hill overlooking a lake. She humphed to herself, there were no entrances excepted for one, the unguarded front gate.

So they were expecting her, Belmont was getting older and Alucard was gone, yep they were waiting for her. But did she have a choice except walk knowingly into a trap? Her sister was in there somewhere and she would save her or die trying.

Author's Note I didn't know if there were any stories about the succubi in the games so I figured I'd write one. Hope you enjoy.
