Chapter 3: Battle of Half Bloods: The Half-Demon, Half-Vampire and Busty Idol Singer
Alucard and his party entered the next section of the castle, the Marble Gallery. When they first arrived, it almost looked kinda peaceful for the otherworlders, if not for the various monsters that patrol the halls.
Still, Alice has been bothered by something. Those monsters… Galibon and Slogra… They seem to hate Alucard for some reason for what he did in the past. What was it…? Oh right, he betrayed their master and sided with the good humans against the forces of darkness. Maybe she should ask Alucard about that now?
"Alucard, do you have a moment?" Alice began.
"…Go ahead." Alucard acknowledged, he could tell what Alice is thinking.
"The monsters in the previous area, including the big ones we fought…" Alice hesitate for a moment, not wanting to upset Alucard. "They seem to hate you for some reason… They claimed you betrayed them and sided with the humans against their master. You must have done a noble thing, siding with the humans of this world and help saved them from the monsters here. Mind telling us why?"
"…It because I couldn't stand the slaughtering of humans by Dracula's hand. It was 1476 and all the slaughtering of the innocent humans is where I joined forces with the Belmont of that time, Trevor Belmont in banishing Dracula." Alucard sighed, he hated to be reminded of the past, but his friends stared eye widen at him.
"You helped a Belmont defeat Dracula back in 1476?!" Tsubasa stuttered in disbelief. "But… how are you still living? How… old are you?"
"Due to my half-vampire blood, I'm immortal, so physically, I looked like an 18 year old man, but I'm really an adult." Alucard said over his shoulder.
"You must have done a lot of noble deeds, mister Alucard. So if you're half vampire, who were your parents?" Maron smiled slightly, she is starting to respect Alucard now.
"I don't want to talk about it…" Alucard sighed as he sat down, his friends followed suit. It was then, Bridget got an idea to improve the bonds in their party.
"Why don't we tell more about ourselves? I'll go first." Bridget cleared her throat. "I'm a 13 year old student at a fine school, but I was bullied by three girls who made me do their homework." Bridget looked down despondently, she hated to be reminded of those three girls who manipulate her into doing their chores and homework.
"That's sounds horrible." Alice frowned. "You ought to expel them by telling the teachers or principal about this in your timeline."
"It was in the past." Bridget shook her head no with a smile. "It was then, I met my dearest friends and fellow Mew Mews who helped me overcome my weaknesses."
"You mean that form you used against Galibon… What is it called? It's a lot like my Symphogear form." Tsubasa wondered.
"That's because I'm infused with the DNA of the Finless Porpoise, an endangered animal called a Red Data Animal. A Mew Mew is a magical girl who must defend the Earth from alien invaders called the Cyniclons who lost their homeworld due to them damaging it by their selfish reasons."
"So, that would make you… half human and half-fish?" Jean muttered in awe. Bridget nodded with a smile.
"My friends are also infused with Red Data Animal DNA and we make a pretty good team in saving the world."
"I'll go and explain about my Symphogear form." Tsubasa said as she began explaining. "Symphogears are magical girls who use the power of songs to defeat monsters from another dimension called Noise. Noise have the ability to kill anyone who touch them and reduce them to dust. I, Hibiki and another are Symphogears, defending humankind from the Noise."
"That's scary…" Maron shivered at the thought of that. "I hope those Noise creatures don't come to our worlds…"
"I'll go first on how I got here. Here goes…" Alice was next after Tsubasa. "I'm the daughter of legendary treasure hunter Lewis Dodgeson in my Earth. She disappeared a few years ago while looking for the dimension traveling artifact, the Queen's Gate. So after reaching a certain age, I went to where she found the Queen's Gate and disappeared. I found the relic and activate it, hoping it would lead me to my mother."
"And that's how you, Jean and Maron met, right?" Bridget asked, adjusting her glasses. Alice nodded.
"Mm-hm. I woke up to find myself in this sinister castle and after a few seconds of exploring, I met Jean and Maron and we got to the point where we met you guys."
"Um… I am looking for someone dear to me. We were separated during an important battle and I was looking for her until a bright light engulfed me. I woke up in this castle and met Alice and Maron." Jean pressed his fingers nervously. Alucard scoffed at this.
"Was it a well-endowed girl you were looking for?" He remarked sarcastically.
"N-No no! She was a girl about my age! She has a special power that I cannot explain right now."
"Um… At school, I was baking some cookies and I was gonna have some with my friends until a bright light appeared out of nowhere and engulfed me and… you know the rest." Maron did her best to explain how she got here and how she met Jean and Alice.
"Well, I overhear the monsters when I got here about bringing in people from different worlds in attempt to capture me, so they must have acquired the Queen's Gate in order to do so." Bridget gave another of her theories on how they got here.
"Interesting theory, Bridget." Tsubana commented. "But we won't let them catch you in order for their Master Plan to succeed."
"Enough talk. Let us press forward…" Alucard said coldly as he stood up and headed straight for the next room, his allies followed suit.
Alucard's party were walking down the stairs, keeping watch for whatever may attack them at any moment, until suddenly, they heard a scream.
"…Let's go." Alucard told them quickly as he dashed towards the source of the scream. Bridget smiled, Alucard knew what she was gonna say. So without a word, the rest of the party followed their leader.
They see a 17 year old girl with… well-endowed breasts, pink hair with a set of headphones on her head, wearing a blue jacket that has white fluffs with a light blue shirt with a picture of a yellow kitty on the front, grey shorts and brown leather shoes with white fluffs as well chained to the wall by two large gargoyle like monsters.
"Shut up, fifthly human! You want Alucard to hear you?!" The first gargoyle growled as he readies his claws.
"I… Uh… was just looking for a way home when I woke up here… Please let me go!" The girl pleaded.
"No can do, human! We'll use you for bait to lure Alucard and the girl here. Once we capture the girl and kill Alucard, you can bet we can kill you too." The second gargoyle licked his lips as if this woman is his next meal, making the girl frighten than before.
"I'm afraid I can't allow you to do that…" The gargoyles heard Alucard's cold voice as they turned to see Alucard and his party, ready and armed to take on these fiends.
"A-Alucard! Ugh! I knew that girl wouldn't shut up with that screaming! I'll kill you first, then I'll capture the girl!" The first gargoyle let out a battle cry as he lunged at Alucard, in a flash of light, Alucard managed to carve him into pieces. His body parts burned in flame.
"Defeating my cohort still doesn't change a thing! I got something to show you, Alucard…" The second gargoyle let out a sinister smirk as he got out a pink shard of something. "See this? This is a gift from one of the Grand Order of Evil, a elite group of villains from other worlds who now serve our master. It's a shard of a powerful jewel called the Shikon Jewel. If a monster like myself were to use it, their strength increases by a half. More than enough to crush you!" The gargoyle implanted the jewel into his chest and a dark aura appeared around him as he slightly grew larger and his skin became dark white.
"This doesn't change a thing…" Alucard stated stoically as the Jewel Gargoyle reeled his fist back and slams it towards Alucard and his friends, they had to leap to avoid the impact.
"Take this!" Tsubasa who was in Symphogear form dashed forward and used her katana to slash the Jewel Gargoyle five times before he lashed his tail at her, knocking her back a little.
Alice loaded some bullets into her guns and opened fire on the beast, but the Jewel Gargoyle held his palm out and blocked the bullets.
Bridget shouted "Tidal Wave Rush!" A powerful wave of water appeared and hit the Jewel Gargoyle for medium damage.
"You dumb brat! I'll capture you!" The Jewel Gargoyle growled as he charged towards Bridget. But Alucard drop kicked him in the face and knocked him into a wall, crumbling underneath him.
The Jewel Gargoyle struggled to get up before Alucard coldly walked towards him. "W-Wait, Alucard! How about we team up and overthrow the master?! We can rule this world together!" The Jewel Gargoyle begged for mercy.
But his words fall on deaf ears as Alucard ripped out the shard from the chest, the shard was covered in blood, but the blood disappeared while the Gargoyle let out a dying scream as his body turned into ash.
Jean and Maron were helping the girl break free of her chains by using the key the monsters left behind after death. Jean couldn't help but drool at the girl's beautiful breasts.
"Are you alright? What is your name? My name is Bridget Verdant." Bridget asked, walking up to the saved girl.
"Huh? You don't know me?" The girl looked at the party oddly before smiling. "I'm Super Sonico, Japan's Number 1 Idol."
"Hmm… I have never heard of Super Sonico. Have you, Tsubasa?" Bridget turned to the Symphogear for a possible answer.
"No. In my career as a singer, I have never heard of her." Tsubasa shook her head no.
"Awww… and I was hoping you would be fans…" Super Sonico sighed before showing her cheery smile. "Um… Can you tell me where I am and how I can get back to Japan?"
"Are… you from an alternate Earth?" Maron looked at Sonico with widen eyes. "In that case, this is Transylvania, Romania, 1797, as in, the home of Count Dracula."
"C-Count Dracula?!" Sonico's eyes turn white dotted. "But I thought he's a fictional character!"
"Again with this…" Alucard moaned before he calmed himself down and told Super Sonico calmly "In this world, he is real and he is known as the Lord of Darkness. A family of vampire hunters called the Belmonts are destined to battle his evil every hundred years."
"I-I see… Well, that might explain how I got here and the possibility of dimensional travel is possible…" Sonico closed her eyes and smiled nervously, a sweat drop appeared on her forehead.
"And that's why those monsters captured you when you first arrived here. Do you have any fighting abilities, Sonico?" Tsubasa asked her.
"Um… I got my beloved guitar." Sonico got out a well-designed guitar from behind her back.
"Um… What's a guitar?" Jean asked as he eyed the instrument with an impressed and curious nature.
"It's a modern day instrument for playing music. A friend of mine used one sometimes." Bridget explained its uses to Jean.
"I don't see what good an instrument like would do." Alucard said sourly.
"But Alucard, we can't leave Sonico here. I'm sure we'll figure something out to have her in the frontlines." Bridget reasoned with the half-vampire.
Alucard sighed and told the Mew Mew stoically "Very well… But she will be under your care until we make that guitar of hers into a weapon of fighting the monsters…?" Alucard held his hand in front of Bridget.
"Mister Alucard? What's wrong?" Sonico shifted nervously as all eyes turned to the hallway of their right. They can hear voices coming from it.
"…Inuyasha, I can feel the shard's power coming from the direction!" A girl's voice shouted from the hallway.
"Got it." A gruff voice was also heard. It was then, the girl's voice said something else.
"What? Someone else has it? And it appears that weirdly dressed guy is holding it."
"A demon, huh? This will be over quick!" Suddenly, leaping out of the hallway is a 19 year old man with silver hair… and dog ears? He also wore a red kimono and holding a large sword shaped like a fang slams his sword downward towards Alucard.
"Alucard, watch out!" Bridget called out to him in worry. Alucard said nothing as he got out his sword and blocked the man's large sword, amazingly, his sword didn't break.
'Why isn't my Tetsusaiga breaking his crappy sword?!' The dog eared man thought with gritted teeth.
'This demon's sword is good, but he lacks the skill to fight with it properly… and why is he after a shard which can give a monster increased strength?' Alucard thought to himself as he and the dog eared man jumped back a bit further from each other.
The dog man pointed his sword at Alucard and demanded "Hand over the shard!"
"Why are you so interested in a shard that may do harm to people if more of these shards are gathered by monsters?" Alucard said with a calm and cold demeanor.
"That's none of your business. I'll just cleave you in two and… Wait…" Inuyasha sniffed Alucard's scent. "You're a half-demon, aren't you?"
"Why should I share info about my half-blood with a dog man who lacks the skills to wield a sword properly?" Alucard asked with a smirk. He believes this man is called Inuyasha and by the look on Inuyasha's pissed face, he struck a nerve.
"Are you insulting my skills, you half-demon bastard?!" Inuyasha snarled. "That's it, you're dead! Iron Reaver Soul Stealer!" Inuyasha lashed his claws at Alucard, energy shards came out of his claws. Alucard just smirked as he held out his hand and absorbed the half-demon's attack.
"W-What the fuck?!" Inuyasha gawked in utter shock. "You're really starting to piss me off! Hyaaaahhhh!" Inuyasha slams the Tetsusaiga at Alucard, but to Inuyasha and Alucard's friends' surprise, he side stepped out of the way, Alucard then slashed Inuyasha across the chest three times, making the half-demon recoil in shock.
"Damn it!" Inuyasha spat, wiping some blood from his mouth as he clash swords with Alucard, the half-demon thought he has the upper hand with his sword's strength, but Alucard was pushing him and when Inuyasha tried to slash him, Alucard ducked and found an opening which he slashed Inuyasha vertically, making the half-demon fall to the ground, Alucard did a back flip 3 feet from him.
"Son of a bitch… Well, time to use my favorite move… Wind Scar!" Inuyasha slams his sword down onto the floor and it created a powerful wind attack which came towards Alucard.
"Mister Alucard, watch out!" Sonico nearly fainted at an attack that big. Alucard disappeared when the attack was about to hit him and he reappeared behind Inuyasha.
"You missed…" Alucard told the half-demon stoically as he kneed down and did a leg kick that knocked Inuyasha to the ground. Alucard then pointed his sword at Inuyasha's throat.
"No! Don't kill him!" The girl's voice belonged to a 16 year old girl with black raven hair, wearing a white and green schoolgirl uniform with a red ribbon and on her back are bow and arrows and a quiver rushing up to Alucard with a pleading look. Following behind her are a 18 year old woman with black hair tied in a ponytail, wearing a black battle uniform and holding a giant boomerang, a 20 year old man with black short hair, wearing purple and black monk clothes, a strange purple glove with Buddhist beads around it, a small boy with a fox tail and a large yellow cat demon.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to kill him. I don't kill people with good intentions in their hearts, be they mortal or half-demon." Alucard reassured her before turning to Inuyasha with a frown. "As for you, sheath your sword and keep it sheathed. I don't want to remind you how powerful I am, even with a sword." Inuyasha snarled as he spit as soon as Alucard lifted his sword away from his throat and did what he told him begrudgingly.
"So… Who are you guys?" Alice asked, crossing her arms and gave Inuyasha's friends a suspicious glare. Miroku walked up to Sonico.
"Allow me to introduce ourselves. My name is Miroku, a humble monk. My companions are a priestess in training from the future, Kagome Higurashi, a demon slayer from my era, Sango, a young kitsune named Shippo, the large cat you see before is Sango's pet demon, Kirara and I see you already met Inuyasha. We're demon hunters searching for pieces of a jewel called the Shikon Jewel, before I can go into detail on what that is, I have a question to ask you, humble pink haired lady." Miroku held Sonico's palm.
"Um… What is it?" Sonico looked away bashfully, this guy is scaring her a little.
"Would you do the honor of bearing my children?" Miroku gave a flashy charming grin.
"W-What?! I-I-It's so soon… I'm not ready to have a boyfriend yet!" Sonico stuttered in shock. Sango bashed Miroku in the head with her boomerang and dragged him by the collar.
"Would you stop saying that to every woman we meet?" Sango growled irritably at her companion's pervertness.
"I believe you will tell us more about yourselves and this shard the monsters were holding. I want answers." Alucard crossed his arms and looked at the Inuyasha gang with a cold expression.
'T-This guy is scary… and he smells like a half-demon too…' Shippo quivered in his feet at such a scary man such as Alucard.
Bridget giggled politely. "Don't mind Alucard, he may look scary, but he has a good heart. But he's right about one thing, who are you people?"
To be continued…
