What up, DMC fans! Anyway, I'd just like to say that this is going to be one of my best. Well, this chapter tells the history of the story, before Dante became a Devil Slayer. And it reveals the villian of the story, one of the strongest Darkstalkers in the universe! Enjoy, and NO FLAMES!

In ancient times, a lone tower stood in the center of the world. This tower served as a portal between our world, and another world, a demonic world. The demons of the other realm were led by a fearsome demon lord, known only as the Lord of Blood. He was nearly unstoppable, with powers that could crush even the strongest adversary. However, a heroic demon rebelled against his own kind, and faced the dreaded Blood Lord, in order to save his human bride and twin sons. Using his sword, his blood, and the blood of a mortal priestess, he sealed the tower, stopped the Blood Lord, and deterred the demon hordes. However, the tower would return many years later, in 1997, when a mad sorcerer would try to obtain the power of the demon swordsman who sealed the tower in the first place, but was stopped cold by the demon's twin sons. However, while the two descendants of the demon warrior battled the sorcerer, a strange occurrence happened. A statue of a powerful creature was accidentally released from the demon world. However, in the destruction of the tower, the statue was forever buried, but not all things last forever.

66 Slum Avenue, Site of the Tower's Re-emergence, 5 Years Later

The mayor of Devil City (the unfortunate nickname of the city after the whole tower incident.) assigned a crew of people to rebuild the destroyed buildings that the tower eradicated. 3 years into the reconstruction process, the construction workers vanished into the large hole that the tower once stood. 4 months later, the mayor decided to send a rescue team down the whole and see if the construction workers were still alive. The team, equipped with the latest in video and rescue gear, rappeled down the hole to reveal a cavernous tunnel, and in the middle was the statue, but around it, speared around the statue on stalagmites, were shriveled bodies, the bodies of the construction workers! In a fright, the rescue team tried to flee, not noticing the statue's glowing red eyes.

The statue was of a handsome, slim figured male, dressed in a dressy suit, with buttons down the chest, as well as a strange headdress, with two blade like attachments, as well as two blade like wings. On the statue's face, a look of calmness resided, yet in the eyes, lay an air of madness. Then, out of the blue, a series of stalagmites sprouted from the ground, and speared the ten rescuers. The rescue team screamed for a while, then were silenced. Suddenly, the blood seeped out of the bodies, as if the rock of the stalagmites was absorbing the life fluid from the rescue team. The bodies soon became as shriveled as the bodies of the construction workers.

Then, strange red markings across the floor became visible, as the blood from the victims was transferred into the statue. The veins of the statue began to crack and crumble, revealing blue skin, and black cloth. Finally, the statue exploded, and in its place stood the dreaded Blood Lord, as real as life. The Blood Lord then spoke, in a voice that sounded smooth as polished obsidian, "At last, after 1,000 years of torturous imprisonment, I am free. Now, I shall complete what I started, so many years ago, before that fool, Sparda ruined everything." Stabbing his fingers into the ground, the Lord of Blood waited, but all that appeared was a small trickle of blood. "Damn! Not strong enough yet. That forced hibernation must of drained me of my powers. Well, no matter. Once I obtain enough blood, I shall become the most powerful demon lord in the two universes! And then, the rule of Jedah Dohma will begin! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" As Jedah laughed insanely, the cave around him shook. Soon, the power of Jedah would return, in full force. But, it would take time, and soon, Jedah would face his most powerful opponent.

Well thats interesting! Jedah has returned to wreak havok in the mortal world once again. Can our hero stop him in time? Not without help! Well, tune in next time fic-fans! Same Bat Time, Same Bat Channel!
