Hetalia/Castlevania

Chapter 3

Soma, Japan, and Italy walked down to the Lost Village and Italy was about to go to Hammer's store but Soma stopped him.

"No Feli, we go over there. Yoko can use the souls to upgrade weapons." Soma said.

"Oh? Is'a Yoko nice?" Italy asked.

"Yeah, she's nice." Soma said. "She's also Julius's contact so if she hears about anything, she tells him. And she tells me sometimes."

They went inside the shop and saw a woman with blond hair, a slightly red/pink outfit over top a black jumpsuit if you could call it that. She was dressed very tasteful to Japan's standards since he has issues with someone being improperly dressed as well as anyone being in his personal space. Yoko looked up.

"Hello Soma, who are these two?" she asked him.

"Yoko, this is Feliciano and this is Kiku." Soma replied.

"Ve~ Nice to'a meet you Yoko." Italy said.

"Hai, it is very nice to meet you." Japan said bowing a bit.

"Nice to meet you two, what can I do for you?" Yoko asked.

"We need to upgrade our weapons to face stronger opponents." Soma said.

Yoko nodded and looked at each weapon telling Soma what soul she needed in order to upgrade the weapons. Once their weapons were upgraded, they could leave. They went back to the warp room and transported back to the Garden of Madness because there was still areas that needed to be explored in the garden, at least the areas that were easy to access.

"Soma-san, what is the goar of that woman who tried to hurt Feri-san?" Japan asked.

"To revive the dark lord, dracula in other words. Dmitrii and Dario are the two candidates she chose. Well Dmitrii was one, they were born when Dracula met his end. I defied my fate because I'm supposed to be the reincarnation of Dracula."

"So she's trying to create a new dark rord." Japan said.

He understood instantly while Italy didn't really understand much. They found another boss door but it wouldn't open.

"It needs a different type of magic seal, I believe there are 5 seals in all." Soma said.

"So'a we can't open it'a now?" Italy asked.

"Nope, and in anycase we can't destroy a boss without the magic seals." Soma said.

They continued to walk until they came across yet another boss door, that one opened with the magic seal Soma already had. Going inside they saw Dario waiting.

"So you've come, I'm going to get you for what you did to Dmitrii!" Dario yelled.

"Why are you trying to become a dark lord?" Soma asked.

"Are you kidding, for the power." he said

Dario used his fire power and all the plants inside burned up leaving burnt remains. Italy stared at what was once an unusual pretty garden, now nothing but burnt up ruins.

"Imagine how much stronger I'll be when I become the dark lord." he said smirking.

"Your insane." Soma said glaring slightly.

"Si, I'vea never seen such a crazy person." Italy said.

"Hai I agree." Japan said wipping out his katana.

"Becareful not to get burned." Soma said to Italy and Japan as the battle began.

Dario would fire some fireballs at them but also summon pillars of fire to stop them in their tracks. Italy used a new spell to make a protective barrier around Soma and Japan. Japan's sword could now cut through fire which did help as Soma attacked Dario. Defeating him was not much trouble at all.

"I'll show you!" Dario said about to summon a powerful fire attack.

"Dario, that's enough." Celia said walking in.

"But ...!"

"I do not need to lose the last candidate, I will have to make a slight change in plans." Celia said making Dario disappear before facing them. "The next time you fight Dario you will lose."

She disappeared in a blue flame laughing again. Meanwhile, the countries finally arrived at the hidden entrance of the library behind the waterfall. They went inside and Romania lit the tourches inside.

"Lets start looking!" America stated.

"I'm thinking we should ask what the cover looks like da?" Russia asked.

"The book had cross on it with batwings, the tips of the batwings were pointing downward." Romania said.

"That'll make it easier to find aru." China said.

"Vhy do I get the feeling it von't be as easy as ve hope?" Germany muttered.

As they began their search for the book, a noise was heard in the library, thankfully though, it was just a mouse. America was already growing bored looking through the shelves for the book. Canada though found the book on the table, but there was a problem.

"Hey um...Romania, I found it. But half the book is missing." Canada said in a quiet voice.

Romania rushed over and looked at the book.

"...Ce dezastru, with only half the book I can't bring them back." Romani said.

"Dude what do we do now!?" America shouted.

"Te vei calma America? The spell to communicate through mirrors is still whole, if they are near a mirror we can comunicate with them." Romania said.

"Then what are you waiting for!?" America asked impatiently.

"I've been waiting for Denmark to say something. He's been silent ever since Norway was pulled into the book." Romania pointed out.

Everyone stared at the quiet country who finally spoke.

"Hvad venter du på? Use the spell Romania, we need to know if they're okay." Denmark said impatiently.

Romania smiled and lead them to a room with a huge mirror.

"I will read the spell in here, we can use this mirror to communicate with them, hopefully the spell to take a few of us there will still be inact. Norway must find the other half of the book though." Romania said.

Romania stood before the mirror and began to chant the spell so that they could use the mirror to contact Italy, Japan, Norway, and England. Meanwhile back at the castle, they all got to another area of the huge castle called the Demon Guest House. Soma looked over finding someone passed out in the corner of the room. Italy and Japan looked over as well.

"Its Arthur-san, I wonder if he's okay." Japan said walking over shaking him slightly. "Soma-san, we need to get to a hearing room."

"Alright Kiku." Soma said.

Soma bent down and hoisted England onto his back. They left the Demon Guest House and were now heading back to the Garden of Madness to get to the healing room. After reaching the room Soma set England down next to the statue and pressed his hand to it activating its healing power and they all glowed with a healing energy. When England was healed he awoke and rubbed his head.

"That was worse than a hangover." he said looking up seeing Italy, Japan, and Soma.

"Ve~ Arthur your'a okay!" Italy said with a smile.

"Hai, good to see you are awake Arthur-san." Japan said with a small smile.

"So your Arthur, I'm Soma, can you tell us what happened?"

"I was attacked by bloody monsters that's what happened!" Arthur shouted standing up. "Forgive my rudeness lad, it has been a very crazy experience, aside that this place is filled to the brim with Black Magic."

"Well yeah no kidding." Soma said. "So now we need to find Lukas right Feli?"

"Si~" Italy said.

"So Lukas is still somewhere in this place?" Arthur asked. "Shouldn't be that hard to find him."

"I hate to burst your bubble Arthur but this place is huge." Soma said. "Its the size of a castle."

England stared at him and facepalmed himself.

"Well I'll help you out, I can use magic to fight. Lukas can also use magic, I just hope nothings happened to him." England said.

"Werr then, rets go back to the Demon Guest House and search for him there." Japan said. "And Feri-san, don't get disracted if there are femare monsters there."

Italy only made an innocent face and they left the healing room. Now they needed to find Norway but where would he be at, they'll only know when they find him.
