Hetalia/Castlevania

Chapter 4

Now with England on their team, they could handle more monsters together. In the Demon Guest house, there were all kinds of monsters inside. One of which was called a killer clown, Soma had to kill it before it could throw cards at them. Soma felt this monsters soul would eventually come in handy. There were all sorts of monsters in the Demon Guest House. Monsters such as; White Dragon, Lilith, Valkarie, Ghost Dancer, Killer Clown, Killer Dolls, Skellarangs, Buers, etc. Of course, Soma had to drag Italy away from the Lilith and Valkarie.

"Feli, you really need to stay away from the female monsters." Soma said. "They're very dangerous...You okay Kiku?"

"H-hai, why was that one femare monster dressed like that?" Japan asked.

"What you mean the Lilith?" Soma asked.

"Hai, in my country, that is considered highry improper."

"She's one of two sexual demons in this place." Soma said.

"Lad, may I ask you about the dark energy coming from you?" England asked.

"As I've explained to Feli and Kiku, its the power of Dominance." Soma said. "Some monsters I defeat release a soul. I can use that soul in battle to either strengthen my stats, summon as a familiar, or use as an attack."

"That is very interesting, there's no complication or magic circle required?" England asked.

"He'a just uses the powers as'a if it's natural." Italy said smiling. "Can I'a please go talk to'a the bellas?"

"No Feli." Soma said facepalming himself. "They want to kill you, so you need to be careful."

"Soma-san, what kind of boss monster do you think we'rr be fighting here?" Japan asked.

"Well, you've seen some of those walls with puppets beside them. I think that's a hint." Soma said to them.

"A puppet monster?" England said confused. "I wonder what other surprises await us here in this castle."

"I can already assure you that there will be a lot of surprises." Soma said.

"We should keep an eye on Feliciano or else he-" England said pausing.

Italy had wandered off and Soma had to grumble.

"Come on, lets go find him." he said.

They left the room with the angel statue to try and find Italy.

Meanwhile, the countries were waiting for Romania to finish the spell as Germany started to grow impatient. America however, was getting bored.

"How much longer do we have to wait?" America asked Romania.

Romania was too busy casting the spell to hear the question that America asked him. Canada grabbed America's arm to prevent him from getting up.

"America, let Romania finish what he's doing." Canada said in a quiet voice.

"Da, its not like something will jump out and surprise us." Russia said.

Romania stopped finally finishing the spell and the mirror glowed. But something caught his attention. It caught the attention of everyone else.

"Shh!" Germany hissed out.

Everyone was silent and a bit defensive. There was a shadowy figure in the room just before the mirror room. Had someone followed them. The figure picked up a book and looked through it. Whoever it was took the book with them. This concerned Romania but right now their main concern was getting Italy, Japan, England, and Norway back to safety. The figure left and it was safe to talk.

"Vho vas that? That person vas completely unawesome." Prussia asked.

"Hmm, what was that figure after?" Romania asked.

The mirror showed nothing so far, all they could hope for was that Italy and the others were safe and sound.

Meanwhile, Italy was staring at a wall with what looked like a big puzzle. Turned out he snuck off when he got bored.

"Ve? Maybe I'a should wait for Soma to'a get here. This'a puzzle seems a bit complicated." Italy said to himself.

How Italy got past the monsters is no small task though it is a bit easy if you are fast. Italy is fast when motivated by fear, he looked up when he heard Soma, Japan, and England calling for him.

"I'ma in here!" Italy yelled.

"Feli, you need to stay with us, its really dangerous in here." Soma said scolding him slightly.

"Soma-san, Feri-san is very fast when motivated by fear. You saw that when that archer appeared behind him." Japan pointed out.

"Right, you didn't get hurt did you Feli?" Soma asked.

"No, I'ma fine. Soma, can'a you figure this puzzle out?" Italy asked pointing to the wall.

England, Japan, and Soma stared at the wall. Italy sat on the floor but he actually sat on a button he mistakend for a chair and the wall lit up.

"Stay here." Soma said going into the next room.

He returned and looked at the wall again and started to mess with it. Italy stayed on the button until Soma pulled away from the wall.

"All of the rooms in there are scrambled up, by connecting these rooms we can reach three different areas. One may be reach a boss monster in this area." Soma said.

"Pretty smart, lets move on." England said

"Hai, we rearry need to. We must find Rukas-san soon." Japan said.

All of them agreed and went to look through the areas of the demon guest house that was accessible to them. They could only guess that the areas they couldn't access will be accessible later. Soon, they arrived to a boss door.

"Be careful and expect the unexpected." Soma stated.

He used the magic seal to unseal the door and they all went inside. What they encountered in the room, was the Puppet Master. Around the monster were four iron maidens.

"Why does that thing need iron maidens?" England asked.

"I have a feering we're about to find out." Japan said holding up his katana.

The fight started and sure enough, they figured out why. The Puppet Master formed a puppet in one of its four hands and put it into the iron maiden. That puppet in that iron maiden switched places with Japan.

"Keep it from making puppets!" Soma yelled.

Japan fell out of the iron maiden when it opened, his wounds weren't severe but still enough to cause quite a bit of blood loss.

"Kiku!" Feli yelled running over and helped him up. "Kiku are'a you okay?"

"H-hai, Feri-san." Japan said standing up.

Japan resumed the fight with England and Soma. Italy could only watch, though he wished he could do more to help. His barrier was useless against the Puppet Master's power to switch the puppets places in the iron maidens with his friends. Italy rushed over fast and healed them when they were hurt to the point of almost dying. Finally, they killed the Puppet Master and Soma gained the soul from the boss monster. With that power, they could now access certain areas that had puppets by them.

"Lets head back to the Lost Village and buy some supplies, maybe upgrade our weapons again. Then from there we can head back to the Dark Chapel. There's a path heading down to another area." Soma said.

They all nodded and left heading to the warp room to prepare for more battles.
