Castlevania: Resurrection of Darkness
Chapter 1 Veros Under Siege
Trees whizzed by as Alucard ran through them with Maria clinging on
to him. Suddenly
he came to a stop outside of the forest. Maria reluctently let go of
him and he changed
back into his human form. "That is not the last time that we will meet
that witch." He
said as he checked his pockets. He found the sword familiar card and
replaced it back
into his coat. He sniffed the air around him and pointed in a direction.
Castlevania is that
way and there appears to be a town in that direction too. "It might
be Veros." Maria said
looking in the direction Alucard was pointing in. "We have to get to
Castlevania tonight,
my father's evil is already engulfing the town." Alucard and Maria
ran off in that
direction.
An hour after dropping off Ada, Cornell had used his werewolf speed
to get to the town
of Veros. His sense of smell caught wind of a huge fire and of lizardmen
attacking the
town. He ran even faster when his nose caught wind of something else.
Two scents one
human, and one that smelt human and yet vampire at the same time. They
were heading
towards Veros as well. 'Maybe I'll run into them in town.'
Carrie had been in town for only a few minutes when the lizardmen had
arrived and
started setting the town on fire. She had taken several out until her
powers were drained
and she had to resort to using her rings. (You know those rings she
has in Castlevania 64)
That helped a bit until one of the lizardmen grab her from behind and
kept her from
attacking. Carrie was kicking and screaming as the lizardman was laughing
at her and
was about to eat her when a slicing sound filled the air and the lizardman's
head fell off
it's body.
Carrie turned to see a man dressed in black wielding a huge sword and
a young woman in
a green hunters' dress. "Are you all right young one?" The man asked.
Carrie was about
to answer when a lizardman leaped into the air and was come to slam
his spear into the
man. She charged up a ball of magic and threw it at the lizardman disintegrating
him
instantly. "Does that answer your question sir?" "I believe so. Maria
watch over her till I
come back." "Are you serious?" Maria shouted in disbelief "Yes, just
make sure that
nothing happens to her. I have this strange feeling coming from her."
Maria finally gave
and said "Good luck Alucard."
With that Alucard ran off to continue killing lizardmen. "That was 'the'
Alucard? Son of
Dracula, Alucard?" Carrie asked. Maria nodded and Carrie breathed out
a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness he's here." Carrie remember the stories that she heard
about her
ancestor Sypha and her three companions (Trevor Belmont, Alucard, and
Grant Dynasty)
went into Castlevania over 250 years ago. She watched as Alucard sliced
up lizardman
after lizardman with grace and skill. 'If only I was 10 years older."
She thought with a
girlish smirk. She didn't notice the lizardman charging at then from
the right. Maria did
however and immediately her hands glowed and when the lizardman was
upon them.
"Flaming Tiger!" Maria yelled as a tiger shaped flame launched out
of her hands and
flew into the lizardman setting him on fire. Maria then took the beheaded
lizardman's
sword and chopped off the head of the flaming lizardman.
Alucard had continued to decimate the lizardmen when "Oooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!"
pierced throught the screams. Even the lizardmen were confused at that.
They that there
would be no werewolves used in this raid. Suddenly a huge bluish-grey
werewolf
appeared on the rooftops and immediately assualted the lizardmen tearing
them to shreds.
Alucard watched the werewolf slash through his father's minions until
finally they were
facing each other.
Cornell looked at the strange man and after taking a big whiff he recognized
the man's
scent as the one smelt that human yet also vampire. Cornell slowly
walked towards him
slowly claws ready to strike if necessary. However before either of
them could make a
move a trio of lizardmen showed up to challenge them. The two of them
decided to hold
out their little staring contest and get rid of the 3 lizardmen staring
at them. Cornell and
Alucard each took out one and they were edging the last one back towards
a river.
Suddenly a gunshot rang throught the air and hit the lizardman in the
chest. Then a whip
wrapped itself around the lizardman's head and the lizardman screamed
just before it
blew up. Cornell and Alucard looked to where the shot and whip came
from and there
stood two men. One in armor and the other in vapire hunting clothes.
Cornell's nose
instantly told him who the guy in the armor was and Alucard's vampire
sense told him
who the other guy was. Cornell talked first "Henry Oldley?" "Cornell?
Jesus Christ man I
didn't expect you to be here. How have you been?" the two of them hugged
each other
while the other two just stared.
Finally Alucard spoke up. "You're a Belmont, right?" "I'm Reinhart Schneider
and
you're Alucard, famed son of Dracula and friend to the Belmont clan."
Reinhart held out
his hand. "More like ally than friend. That friend of yours there seems
to know that
werewolf." Alucard said motioning to the two old friends. "You're right..."
Women's
screams interupted Reinhart and all four of them ran off in the direction
of the screams.
There the four of them saw Maria and Carrie being attacked by a huge
minotaur and
knocked unconscious. Alucard and Cornell immediately attacked the half
man half bull
head on. Henry took shots at it while Reinhart looked at the two girls
for any fatal
injuries. After examining them he used his whip to wrap around the
minotaur's legs and
tripped him up. That let Alucard be able to stab the beast throught
the heart. The beast
became engulfed in flames just like Veros.
After Maria woke up she saw four guys staring at her and she freaked
out. "Damnit will
you guys let us breathe?" Everyone backed off and the girls stood up.
"Who are these
men Alucard?" Alucard looked at them and motioned themselves to introduce
themselves. After everyone was introduced they all surveyed the damage
that was left by
the lizardmen. Most of the homes were burned to the ground and a lot
people didn't
survive. Everyone suddenly felt a chill in the air and there was an
evil laughter in the air.
Everyone looked up into the sky and saw Death and Death was holding
a rope and tied to
the rope were seven kids. One of the kids caught Alucard's eye, a blue
haired blue eyed
boy. For some reason this boy was drawing Alucard to him. Alucard teleported
up to
rescue the children but Death got away laughing about a new body for
Dracula. Everyone
didn't know what that was about yet after Alucard landed back on the
ground he
immediately ran off in the direction of Castlevania The others also
ran off after him.
