CHAPTER 3: PHANTASMIC HELL ON EARTH
The storm didn't stop, as expected. A-01 was getting worried for no reason suddenly. He got up, and then he took a peek outside the hut.
"Everything is good, but then, why do I feel so uneasy?"
"Is Eriol (Amar Ma'aruf's real name) is back at the Yamato Shrine?" Kaede asked the young elite trainee in front of her.
"Yeah…"
"I believe that both of you were so close."
"I met him at the mosque during a Friday solat (prayer) three years ago. We became close because both of us have the same hobby."
"Oh."
Then, an unfamiliar rustle in the bushes caught A-01's attention. He woke the rest of the group from their sleep.
"What… what is it do you want? I wanted some sleep!"
"Sheesh!" He hushed the angry inu hanyou. "Can you sense something, Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha sniffed the air, and then, he caught a scent, no, multiple scents!
"Youkais… and their scent is really weird too…"
One was crawling near the hut, and without wasting any time, he screwed the silencer on his Desert Eagle. As the bullet of the gun silently leaves the muzzle, the throaty growling of a demon quickly catches their attention.
"Let's go. But what ever we do, we must not alarm them."
"I understand."
Inuyasha and A-01 quietly crept out of the hut. Upon seeing the creature A-01 previously shot, Inuyasha killed it with Tetsusaiga. Soon, a giant skeleton came rushing into them.
Why does this seem too familiar?
On top of the skeleton's head were a lady, whom the same one that Chris encountered before. She was wearing the same shroud like in Veros earlier.
"Let me guess… you're the boss of the demons here… you smell like Kagura, but you're not her…" Inuyasha wondered aloud.
"How smart were you! But still, it's not important. What's important is that Master Dracula will unleash Hell on Earth! You could do nothing about it!"
She petted the skeleton, before she whispered something to it. As she disappeared, the gigantic skeleton spitted fireballs at them.
"Kaze no Kizu!" Inuyasha bellowed, upon unleashing his technique, while A-01 emptied the whole clip of his Desert Eagle…
…And a huge bone came crashing into them.
THOOM!
It nearly hit A-01 by inches, and then his salvation came.
"Amar-kun! Catch!" Sango shouted as she threw Amar's old CRS-15 rifle.
"Heavy Machine Gun!" Amar announced, as he swiftly put the rifle into a ready position. "Inuyasha! Get out of the way! Now!" Amar shouted to his partner, as he stands in front of the demon, ready to attack.
With only the skeleton standing in his way, he unleashed his weapon's power, launching a HE grenade from the M203 Grenade Launcher hanging under the barrel of the rifle.
Seconds later all that is left behind is a floating orb.
A-01 touched the orb, and then, a surge of odd sensation and power took over his body. It's over in seconds, and a heavy sigh is all that can be heard on the night sky's silence.
"Phew. I'm glad it's over."
Inuyasha and the rest of his group blinked in surprise. Amar looked, as fine as he could, but then, Kagome knew that orb made him even stronger.
"But then, what did that woman meant about the 'Hell on Earth'? Who's this Dracula person that woman talked about?" Sango nervously asked the 19-year old FPEA elite.
"It meant Dracula had revived after a century, and he's bound on world domination. Either way, a one-man's-war is not enough for stopping it."
"A one-man's-war?"
"From the beginning of Dracula's existence, a clan named Belmont clan had continuously deterred his plans from emerging. But I could feel that he got new allies, and we got to stop it. Somehow, I feel something not right was going on around here. How come Dracula can return back since he and his castle was sealed few years ago?"
"I don't know, but I could feel that Naraku is behind this." Miroku stated.
"That would be highly unlikely. We just finished him off before."
"So it's settled. We will find this Dracula guy and finish him." Inuyasha started to march on.
"Hold it, dog-boy. He's on the other side of time."
"WHAT DID YOU CALL ME?!" Inuyasha yelled.
"Err… nothing… let's rock on."
