Happy Halloween, here is the chapter.
CHAPTER 35
Lashing Out and Crossing Over
Transylvania: Haunted Forest
The group of Luigi, Yoshi, Boo, Joe with Gomamon, Misty with Azurill and Brock appeared in a zone with leafless trees.
"Yoshi is scared of those trees." Yoshi said.
"So you think?" Luigi asks scared.
Then they hear a crow squawking which scares Misty.
"What was that?" Misty asked.
"Only it was a crow." Joe replied and she sighs in relief.
"Luckily there are no bugs here." Misty said.
They continued until human skeletons appeared popping out from the ground, some of them were equipped with boomerangs, barrels, bow and quill with arrows, swords, bombs, lassos, chains, spiked iron flails, shields and spears.
"Ok…? This is getting weird." Joe said.
"What do you mean, Joe?" Gomamon asked.
"It's not normal to see living human skeletons." Joe said.
"Me and Mario faced Dry Bones before, it will be the same." Luigi said.
"Go Croagunk!" Brock said calling him.
"You too Staryu!" Misty said calling it.
"What are you waiting for, Joe?" Gomamon asked.
"I don't feel sure about hitting skeletons who were people before, but I don't have another choice." Joe said before summoning his Keyblade.
The skeletons tried to toss barrels, but Gomamon uses Marching Fishes to hit the skeletons causing the barrels drop about the skeletons, Joe casts Protecga to block and disarm the skeletons with swords, spears and spiked iron fails, then he used Strike Raid and Circle Raid defeating the skeletons who fell to bones, Boo pulled a golf ball which was hit by his golf club hitting a skeleton's skull and bounced against more skulls hitting them too, Luigi casts Blizzaga to freeze the skeletons due the Dry Bones are immune to the fire, Yoshi rams the skeletons with his head knocking, Egg Roll to knock them like bowling pins and swallowed a boomerang before spitting it and hit the other skeletons, Croagunk uses Brick Break and Mud Bomb, Staryu uses Bubble Beam and Rapid Spin and Azurill uses Slam and Water Gun until they defeated all the skeletons. A skeleton was searching his head until Yoshi eats it and spits it as the skeleton was chasing after it. Brock returned Croagunk inside the Pokéball as Misty did the same with Staryu.
"Skeletons, easy to defeat like the Dry Bones." Luigi said.
"There are no signs from Bowser or Team Rocket." Brock said.
"Let's keep searching." Gomamon said.
They keep walking across the forest until a Corrupt Digimon like Baluchitherium skeleton blocks their path.
*SQUIRMING EVIL (KINGDOM HEARTS 1.5 REMIX)*
"Guys, look out! It's a SkullBaluchimon!" Gomamon exclaimed.
"SkullBaluchimon?" Joe asks before pulling out his Digivice and brings the information (just like in Digimon Adventure Reboot). "It's from the ultimate level."
The Corrupt SkullBaluchimon roars at the group.
"Go Steelix!" Brock said calling him.
"It's your turn Gyarados!" Misty said calling him.
Gyarados roared the Corrupt SkullBaluchimon but it didn't look intimidated before charging them but Steelix used Iron Tail against the head of SkullBaluchimon and Gyarados uses Whirlpool to catch SkullBaluchimon into a water vortex, then Luigi casts Thundaga zapping the Corrupt SkullBaluchimon damaging it too.
"Gomamon, Digivolve!" Joe said pulling out his Digivice.
Gomamon Digivolve to… Ikkakumon! Ikkakumon Digivolve to… Zudomon!
Back in the battle, Zudomon slams his hammer against SkullBaluchimon, Yoshi ate enemy bats turning them into eggs before tossing them towards SkullBaluchimon, Joe realizes Blizzard Raid, Boo climbs above SkullBaluchimon before realizing a ground pound in the head causing few damage, then the Corrupt Digimon retaliates slamming his front legs trying to stomp them but they dodged.
"Hydro Pump!" Gyarados said firing a high-pressure water shot.
"Dragon Breath!" Steelix said firing a purple breath from his mouth.
Both attacks damaged the Corrupt SkullBaluchimon.
"Vulcan Hammer!" Zudomon says and slams his hammer against the Corrupt SkullBaluchimon finishing it too.
*ENDS*
The Corrupt SkullBaluchimon growls in agony before collapsing and disappears completely. Then Gyarados and Steelix were returned inside of their Pokéballs while Zudomon reverted to his regular form.
"That was easy." Gomamon said.
"I hope nothing can go wrong." Joe said.
Suddenly a thunder boomed and a rain appeared.
"I suggest finding a shelter." Brock said.
They nodded before continuing and searching for a shelter from the rain.
Dracula's Castle: Exterior
The team manages to arrive into a huge castle.
"Let's ask the person who lives in this castle if we can stay inside until the rain disappears." Azurill said.
"Joe, what's wrong?" Gomamon asked him.
"I have a bad feeling that this castle is another illusion created by NeoDevimon." Joe said.
"I hope there aren't ghosts in this castle." Luigi said shivering.
"Me neither." Misty agreed shivering.
"I'm still remembering when we visited that haunter torrer in Saffron City." Brock said.
"Yoshi remembers when Mario and Luigi entered the mansion with ghosts in Dinosaur Island." Yoshi said (flashbacking the times when Yoshi stayed outside of mansions just like in Super Mario World).
On the rooftop Phantomon was watching the group entering the castle.
"One of the Digidestined arrived at this place, this time I'll have my payback against one of them." Phantomon said.
Dracula's Castle: Entrance
The team entered inside the castle.
"Everything is dark." Misty said.
"Luckily I brought my flashlight." Luigi said before pulling out his flashlight and illuminating the place.
Then they continued across the castle, but unknown to them another person wearing a brown cloak entered the castle too.
Marble Corridor
The team is advancing until an ordinary mummies appear going towards them.
"Are those real mummies!? Shouldn't they be in Egypt?" Joe asks scared.
"Nah, they're only ghosts disguised as mummies." Luigi said.
He used the Strobulb from his flashlight but nothing happened, but he kept trying.
"Ok, I'll try with this." Luigi said before shooting a drain opener at the mummy's face but nothing happened. "Uh-oh…"
Boo chippered nervously before turning invisible.
"Shall we run for our lives?" Misty asks in fear.
"Oh, yes, let's." Brock said.
Then they scream in fear before running away and taking different ways inside the mansion. Meanwhile, the same person who entered after the group heard the screams and made his way towards the ones who screamed.
Fountain Garden
Misty holding Azurill in her arms, they arrived at the gardens of the castle.
"Something tells me that this place is scarier than the haunted tower in Saffron city." Misty said trying to recover her breath.
"Haunted tower?" Azurill asks with curiosity.
"It's a long story." Misty said.
Suddenly a giant spider hanging by a thread appears in front of them and Misty screams in fear while swinging a fan trying to scare the giant arachnid but the giant spider lands in the ground before advancing towards them.
"Bubble Beam!" Azurill uses his attack hitting the giant spider forcing it to run away.
"That was so close, thank you Azurill." Misty says in relief.
"No problem." Azurill smiled.
Unfortunately, more insectoid enemies appear, ones like multi-segmented and multi-legged insects called She-Worm, enemies scarab beetles, mutated butterflies called Bitterfly, giant caterpillars called Crawlers, giant mantis called Death Mantis, oversized dragonflies, giant beetles called Flying Beetle Roller and oversized moths.
"AAAAHHHH!" Misty screams in fear before running away from the giant bugs.
Dance Hall
Brock was trying to catch his breath too.
"Definitely this place is scarier than the haunted tower in Saffron city." Brock said.
Then he sees ghosts dancing with their pairs.
"Well, maybe this place doesn't look bad after all." Brock said until she saw the shadow from a woman standing. "Excuse me lady, do you want to dance with me tonight?"
The woman turns to see Brock, when she walks it is revealed as a monster part woman and part spider, then he screams in fear as the monster known as Arachne but Croagunk popped out from his Pokéball and used Brick Break defeating the Arachne.
"Phew… That was too close… For one moment I thought it was a woman." Brock sighed in relief.
"Those Pokémon look completely weird in this room." Croagunk said.
Then more enemies appear, zombies, two skulls of dinosaur attached and formed like totem called Bone Pillars, armored skeletons called Skeleton Knights, skeletons with with wings called Winged Skeletons, mixture of human and bull called Minotaurs and skeletons of snake known as Quetzalcoatl.
"It's time to send reinforcements." Brock said before calling out Steelix, Ludicolo, Crobat, Geodude and Sudowoodo ready to fight against the monsters.
Outer Walls
Yoshi arrived in another part of the castle where there are columns and bushes.
"Yoshi is now afraid of this castle which looks completely different from the castles from Bowser." Yoshi said trying to recover his breath.
Then monsters were appearing surrounding the green dinosaur, the monsters were werewolves, minotaurs, weretigers, werebulls, wereleopards, wereboars and werebears.
"Now that explains why Luigi doesn't allow Yoshi to see horror movies." Yoshi says scared while backing off from the werebeasts but he regains a bit of courage. "But Yoshi won't give up against those monsters."
Then Boo appears aside from Yoshi and he chippered.
"Boo better get ready to fight against monsters." Yoshi said and Boo nodded.
Colosseum
Joe and Gomamon arrived in another zone of the castle which looks like a colosseum arena.
"Something weird is going on in this castle, it is not ordinary seeing mummies or living skeletons in this world." Joe said panting.
"Well, we managed to defeat a Corrupt SkullBaluchimon." Gomamon said.
"You're right, we must regroup." Joe said.
"You're right Joe." Gomamon agreed.
But before advancing more monsters appeared in their path, red hippogriffs, blue cyclopes wielding hammers, minotaurs wielding axes and harpies wielding spears.
"Ok, this is completely weird, why are there now monsters from the Greek mythologies in this castle?" Joe asks in disbelief.
"I don't know." Gomamon replies as a minotaur mooes. "I'm not scared of those monsters!"
Then the seal Digimon starts to Digivolve.
Gomamon Digivolve to… Ikkakumon!
Despite being Digivolved, the monsters keep advancing towards the reliability's duo.
"Harpoon Torpedo!" Ikkakumon uses his attack to defeat the Greek monsters.
The harpies managed to dodge but Joe summoned his Keyblade before casting Thundaga to defeat the harpies.
"If Ikkakumon can fight against those monsters, I'll fight too!" Joe said getting ready to fight.
Clock Tower
By last, Luigi was running away from the mummy until he stopped to catch his breath.
"I only faced ghosts, but no real mummies or more monsters from horror movies." Luigi said panting.
He starts to watch his surroundings until he hears a statue of a woman moving to see Luigi, when the green plumber sees the head glowing with red eyes, Luigi screams again before running again as the snakes from a medusa's head hissed. Luigi keeps running until he tripped and fell to the ground, he gets up before turning on his flashlight and for his horror he sees a skeleton with black cloth wielding a scythe, the eyes of the skeleton glowed with blue fire as Luigi screamed to death, then the skeleton known as a Death swung his scythe and slashed Luigi causing Luigi's spirit separate from his body. The Death has now Luigi's spirit in his left hand until a spiked chained ball appears from nowhere hitting and smashes the Death, the one who attacked the Death it reveals as the person who has the brown cloak, then he took off the brown cloak revealing as a blond-haired man wearing brown clothes, brown boots.
"Simon Belmont…" The Death hissed at the man called Simon (having the same design from Super Smash Bros Ultimate).
*VAMPIRE KILLER (SUPER SMASH BROS ULTIMATE REMIX)*
Simon tosses a blue cross which hits the Death and destroys him while saving Luigi's spirit too. However, more monster appeared, skeletons, bats, floating metallic eyes called Bugbear and Peeping Eye, living knight armors called Dark Armor, flying skeletons, flaming skulls called ghosts, zombies called ghouls, harpies, minotaurs, pink slimes, werewolves, wargs, witches and common zombies. Simon attacks lashing a whip made of silver called Vampire Killer (Side Smash Attack), tossing axes (Neutral Special Attack), a diving kick before lashing the Vampire Killer (Air Down Attack plus Side Air Attack), tossing a bottle of sacred fire (Down Special Attack), lashing the Vampire Killer around the enemies to defeat them, grabbing them before slamming them against the ground (Grab Down Attack), tossing the cross (Side Special Attack), he keeps fighting until to defeat all the monsters.
*NOTHING TO LOSE (CASTLEVANIA: HARMONY OF DESPAIR)*
"You cursed Belmont, I will end your life and your pathetic bloodline." A voice said and revealed as a man with silver hair, beard, and mustache, fangs and wearing a black cloak with royal clothing.
"You won't plunge the world into everlasting darkness, Dracula!" Simon declared.
"We'll see about that." Dracula said firing three fireballs swinging his cape.
Simon manages to dodges and lashes the Vampire Killer hitting Dracula but the vampire hunter was hit by a column of fire summoned by Dracula and the human landed but Dracula fires another fireball until another Vampire Killer appears blocking the fireball and reveals as a brown-haired man with blue sleeveless shirt, bandages around the wrists, a white headband, gray pants and brown boots.
*DIVINE BLOODLINES (CASTLEVANIA: RONDO OF BLOOD)*
"Begone! You don't belong in this world, monster!" He said before facing Dracula.
"Another Belmont!" Dracula exclaimed before summoning more monsters like skeleton soldiers, ravens, pillars of bones, gargoyles and armor knights. "Destroy him!"
The person whose last name is Belmont joins the fight, he realizes a dash attack while swinging his Vampire Killer (Dash Attack), he also tosses a bottle of sacred fire just like Simon, he realizes a sweep followed with an air sweep (Down Normal Attack), Simon managed to recover himself and managed to defeat the monsters. Simon tossed his cross hitting Dracula followed by the other Belmont realizing an upper attack with the Vampire Killer (Up Special Attack).
*ENDS*
Dracula backed off from the two Belmont.
"I never expected to see two Belmont." Dracula said. "Hear my words, my monsters are still roaming in my castle trying to hunt the other invaders."
Then the lord vampire disappeared.
"Your last name is Belmont?" Simon asked the other Belmont.
"Yes, but call me Richter." The Belmont called Richter introduced himself.
"Simon, it's my name." Simon said.
Meanwhile, Luigi who is now a ghost, is floating around his body without pupils in the eyes.
"That never happened to me before." Luigi ghost said.
Then he lays trying to return to his body, but suddenly a floating mask with a tearing bloody eye appeared and Luigi screamed in fear who luckily is back to his body.
"Phew… I'm back." Luigi said but he suddenly heard the Dual Scream from his DS Horror and he pulled out the device with Dr. E. Gadd appearing. "Hello?"
"Luigi, I'm glad you're okay, where are the others?" E. Gadd asked.
"We were separated when different monsters appeared in this castle." Luigi explained.
"Don't feel scared, you managed to fight against ghosts in six different mansions." E. Gadd said.
"Ghosts are one thing, but facing monsters from this new castle is something new." Luigi said.
"You're right sonny, according to the world database. You are in Transylvania, a world that looks like it's set in the 1700s, right now you're in Dracula's castle" E. Gadd explained.
"What...!? Dracula…!? I thought it was only a fictional character!" Luigi exclaimed in fear.
"Well, you're into a different world and possibly Dracula is real. But don't worry, have faith in yourself and you guys will get through this world alive." E. Gadd said.
"Yeah, you're right." Luigi nodded.
"Good luck Luigi." E. Gadd said before turning off the screen.
Luigi takes a deep breath before continuing.
"Prepare yourself Luigi, this time I'm into a different castle, not a mansion." Luigi said trying to regain his courage until Simon and Richet appeared in front of them.
"Who are you?" Simon asked the plumber.
"I'm Luigi." Luigi introduced himself.
"What are you?" Richter asked.
"Well, I'm human." Luigi answered. "I'm in the company of two humans who are Pokémon Trainers, a human child in the company of a virtual pet called Digimon, a friendly ghost and a green cute dinosaur."
"Hmph. Very well." Richter said.
"So, what are your names?" Luigi asked them.
"I'm Simon Belmont, a vampire killer." Simon introduced.
"My name is Richter Belmont, a vampire killer too." Richter introduced himself.
"Vampire killers, are you using weapons made of silver?" Luigi asked.
"Yes, this is how we destroy the monsters." Simon said.
"But how do you know about vampires?" Richer asked.
"I thought they were only fiction until now." Luigi said before asking. "By the way, what are you doing here?"
"We're here to finish off Dracula." Richter answered.
"Also, I saved you from the Death." Simon added.
"Save me from the Death?" Luigi asked before realizing. "Oh… It was a terrible experience, but thanks for saving me."
"The thanks are unnecessary, we have to finish off Dracula and the other monsters." Simon said.
"But what about my friends?" Luigi asked.
"Very well." Richter said as Simon nodded.
Then Simon and Richter joined Luigi.
Marble Corridor
Luigi and the two Belmont make their way across the corridor as the monsters like mummies, zombies and gargoyles were appearing but the two Belmont used their weapons to defeat the monsters while Luigi casted elemental spells also defeating the monsters.
"Since you can cast spells?" Richter asked Luigi.
"It's a long story." Luigi replied.
They kept going in the castle.
Dance Hall
Back in the Dance Halls, Brock and his Pokémon team were fighting against the monsters.
"Air Slash!" Crobat uses his attack to defeat the Winged Skeletons.
"Razor Leaf!" Ludicolo uses his attack to defeat the Bone Pillars.
"Poison Jab!" Croagunk uses his attack to defeat a Minotaur.
"Hammer Arm!" Sudowoodo uses his attack to defeat the Skeleton Knights.
"Gyro Ball!" Geodude uses his attack to defeat the zombies.
"Iron Head!" Steelix uses his attack to defeat the Quetzalcoatl.
"That was a great job, come back." Brock said before calling back his Pokémon. "Now let's search for the others."
Fountain Garden
Azurill was panting in exhaustion after fighting against the insectoid enemies.
"This doesn't look good, Azurill is exhausted." Misty said with concern before realizing. "Azurill, take a rest and leave this to Gyarados."
Azurill nods and Misty calls out her Gyarados who roared at the enemies, but they didn't look intimidated. However, Gyarados realizes his attacks under Misty's orders, he uses Flamethrower against the She-Worms and Scarab Beetles, then he used Rain Dance and followed with Hurricane against the Bitterflies, Crawlers and Death Mantis, and Hydro Pump against the Dragonflies and Flying Beetle Rollers.
"Those bugs won't scare me again." Misty said before riding Gyarados as Azurill was in Misty's arms. "Let's go to search for the others."
Gyarados nodded before making their way.
Outer Walls
Back with the werebeasts, Boo turned invisible making a weretiger and a werewolf claw to each other while Yoshi wraps every werebeast with his tongue before swinging and striking the other enemies. A werebull charges towards Yoshi but he jumps before wrapping his tongue around the beast's neck and rides the werebull to hit the other werebeasts until the green dinosaur releases the werebull causing it to crash in a column. However, the other werebeasts were coming until a Hyper Beam appeared defeating all the remaining werebeasts.
"Are you two okay?" Misty asked them.
"Yes, Yoshi thanks Misty for defeating horror film monsters and also saving Yoshi and Boo." Yoshi said.
"You're welcome." Misty said.
Then they keep going across Dracula's castle. A werewolf tries to get up but he transforms back into a human before falling to the ground (normally the werewolf becomes human again before dying just like in the movies).
Colosseum
"Harpoon Vulcan!" Ikkakumon uses his attack to defeat the remaining Greek monsters.
"Those were the last ones, now let's search for the others." Joe said before riding his Digimon.
"You're right Joe." Ikkakumon said.
They continued across the castle.
Marble Corridors
Back with Luigi and the two Belmonts they managed to defeat a giant armor knight.
"Those monsters can't stop appearing even if we defeat them." Luigi said.
"Hey!" Azurill called them.
Then they see Brock, Misty, Gyarados, Azurill, Yoshi, Joe, and Gomamon back to his regular form.
"Phew… For one moment I thought that I was going to lose." Joe said.
"Unless we're together now." Gomamon said.
"What are your names?" Richter asked them.
After the introductions.
"To make things short, we're recruiting heroes from different worlds to fight against Bowser's army and defend the universe, the main goal of Bowser is to kidnap Kari who has a heart of pure light and is the key to open the door to Kingdom Hearts." Luigi explained.
"If they get Kari's heart every world will be ruled by the villains." Joe added.
"If they're a bigger threat than Dracula, we must stop Bowser too." Simon said.
"You're right, we're going to help too." Richter said.
The team continues across the castle.
Dracula's Castle Second Floor
The team keeps going across the second floor until Luigi hears a familiar voice for Luigi.
"This castle reminds of the one where Pac-Dracula lives there." The first male voice said.
"But the monsters from this castle look completely different." A female voice said.
"This time there aren't ghosts here." The second male voice said.
"There are no ghosts like us." Another male voice said.
"I know that, Blinky." The second female voice said.
"We're not alone." Simon said.
Both Belmont took their fight stances until the three persons revealed as Pac-Man, Cyli and Spiral.
"Wait a sec…" Luigi said before recognizing them. "Pac-Man, Cyli, Spiral, Blinky, Inky, Pinky, Clyde?"
"Luigi!" Pac-Man's group said recognizing Luigi.
"There are more ghosts with them!" Joe said summoning his Keyblade.
"Let's take them down!" Richter said getting ready to fight.
"Wait! They're my friends!" Luigi said putting himself in front of Pac-Man's group.
"Are you sure?" Simon asked.
"Yes, they helped in the past." Luigi replied.
Then Simon, Richter and Joe lowered their weapons.
"That was so close…" Clyde sighed in relief.
"Luigi, what are you doing here?" Pac-Man asked him.
"We're recruiting heroes." Luigi said before asking. "What are you doing here?"
"Back in our world, we watched Lord Betrayus speaking with different people, one was a woman with black horns, the other a man with fire instead of hair, another was a pirate and the last one it was a turtle with red hair, green spiky shell and metallic wristbands." Inky said describing the people.
"Bowser!" Luigi, Yoshi, Misty, Joe, Gomamon and Brock exclaimed.
"Do you know them?" Spiral asked.
"Yes, Bowser is Mario's arch nemesis." Yoshi said.
"He is also our enemy too." Gomamon added.
"So, that means that now Lord Betrayus works with Bowser too." Luigi said.
"After they told us about Lord Betrayus talking with Bowser, we decided to follow them until a portal brought us here." Spiral said.
"Excuse me, what are your names?" Cyli asked the new people.
"I'm Misty and he is Azurill." Misty introduced herself and her Pokémon.
"Hello." Azurill greeted.
"I'm Brock." Brock introduced himself.
"My name is Joe." Joe introduced himself.
"I'm Gomamon." Gomamon introduced himself.
"I'm Simon Belmont." Simon introduced himself.
"I'm Richter Belmont." Richter introduced himself.
"I'm Pac-Man." Pac-Man introduced himself.
"I'm Cyli." Cyli introduced herself.
"I'm Spiral." Spiral introduced himself.
"I'm Pinky and they're Blinky, Inky and Clyde." Pinky introduced herself and the others friendly ghosts.
"Me Yoshi and he is Boo." Yoshi introduced himself as Boo chippered.
"Oh my gosh, you are the cutest ghost I have ever seen before!" Pinky gushed after meeting Boo who was blushing.
"Ok Pinky, now that we met each other, we must help Pac-Man and his new friends to stop Bowser's plans." Blinky said changing the subject.
"Aren't you jealous of Boo?" Inky asked Blinky.
"Of course not, I'm never jealous of new friends!" Blinky exclaimed.
"Now, where should we go?" Clyde asked.
"We need to destroy Dracula." Simon replied.
"Ok, let's a go!" Luigi said.
Then the team continued across the mansion, but unknown to them the Dr. Buttocks was watching them.
"I knew from the beginning that there were snitches in our group. Bowser will love hearing this information." Dr. Buttocks said before entering the dark corridor.
Castle-Upper Floors
The team keeps advancing as they are fighting against the Dracula's monsters including lesser vampires.
"Heh. Nothing we couldn't handle." Gomamon said looking around the place.
"Don't get too cocky. Remember in this place, anything could happen." Joe pointed out.
"You are correct." An unknown male voice said as they turned to see a dark mist appearing before them.
It's a young man with long white hair, he is wearing a black robe with a black shirt under it, black pants and black boots.
"Who are you?" Pac-Man asks seriously.
"My name is Alucard, son of Dracula." Alucard introduced himself.
"Alucard? That's Dracula spelled backwards." Joe said.
After the introductions.
"Wait, do you have fangs? Are they sharp?" Gomamon asked.
"Of course he has sharp fangs, don't you remember the news back in our world. Myotismon drank blood from the people before destroying him." Joe explained.
"Oh no! He is not gonna drink our blood, is he?" Misty asks scared.
"No, I don't like the taste. And my mother taught me not to cause suffering. My father chose another path, and so I've sworn to stop him." Alucard explained to them and the members who were frightened they sigh in relief.
"Thank goodness." Cyli said.
"Let's move on before Dracula sends more monsters." Simon said and they nodded before continuing.
"Shadow Scythe!" The voice of Phantomon said, trying to slash the group but they luckily dodged the attack.
"Who are you!?" Richter asked Phantomon.
"Hey, you're the same Phantomon who worked with Myotismon!" Joe recognized him.
"Yes, I still remember you, especially when you were fighting against Lord Myotismon. Now that I'm back thanks to my new god, I will settle the score here right now." Phantomon said.
"Your scythe reminds me a lot of that of Death, and you don't belong to this world." Simon said as the team got ready to fight.
"No human can overcome my powers." Phantomon said.
*SINISTER SHADOWS (KINGDOM HEARTS 2.5 REMIX)
"Starmie, come out!" Misty called it.
"You too Swampert!" Brock called him.
Phantomon slashes with his scythe but they dodge the attack and Joe triple slashes with his Keyblade followed by casting Thundaga, Gomamon uses Marching Fishes and manages to damage the phantom Digimon.
"Diabolic Star!" Phantomon calls dark energy into the weighted chain end of his scythe and chain to trap an opponent but Simon blocked it with his Vampire Killer. "But how!?"
"The Vampire Killer was made to vanish evil monsters like you." Simon said.
Phantomon tries to slash Simon but he dodges by realizing a sweep and a leaping sweep before tossing a cross causing him great damage due Phantomon is an undead, Richter attacks lashing his Vampire Killer damaging more Phantomon.
"Dazzling Gleam!" Starmie said using its attack.
"Hydro Pump!" Swampert said using his attack.
Both attacks damaged Phantomon.
"I had enough of those cursed Pokémon!" Phantomon snarled.
Pac-Man pulled out an ice berry to transform into Ice Pac-Man and he froze Phantomon, then Simon and Richter tossed bottles of sacred fire which not only melted the ice, they damaged Phantomon too who retaliates swinging his scythe but Yoshi wraps his tongue around the scythe and he struggles holding his main weapon, then Boo attacked Phantomon using his tongue (inspired from Down Normal Attack from Bowser Jr in Smash Bros), Cyli and Spiral fired shots from their guns damaging the Digital Grim Reaper, Luigi casts triple Firaga to damage Phantomon and tosses a drain opener getting stuck in Phantomon's face.
"What is this!?" Phantomon asked.
"One of my weapons from one of the best ghostbusters!" Luigi bragged.
Then he uses his Poltergust to suck Phantomon and slamming him against the ground four times, Joe realizes a diagonal slash with his Keyblade and followed with Blizzard Raid, Gomamon uses Water Shot, Starmie uses Rapid Spin, Swamper uses Stomping Tantrum, Alucard attacks Phantomon by using a powerful blade called Crissaegrim and both Belmonts finished off Phantomon by realizing an upper attack with the Vampire Killers.
*ENDS*
Phantomon backs up painfully after receiving damage from the weapons who vanish the undead while Pac-Man reverts to his regular form and the other two Pokémon are returned inside the Pokéball.
"Now, out of our way!" Alucard warned Phantomon.
"I think I underestimated your new human friends, but next time I won't make the same mistake again." Phantomon said before disappearing in a dark corridor.
"Are we there yet?" Gomamon asked.
"Just a bit more." Richter replied.
They nod before continuing across the stairs which leads them to the next room.
Dracula's Throne Room
The team arrived to see Dracula who was sitting on his throne and holding a glass goblet.
"That is…" Pac-Man was saying.
"Lord Dracula." Simon said.
"Alucard! How dare you help these mortals out!" Dracula snarled.
"Father. I'm not as evil as you and I won't follow in your teeth marks." Alucard said.
"So, you choose to protect those mortals?" Dracula asked in disappointment. "These humans are not worth the air they breathe. I was simply cleansing this world."
"It's not your place to judge the worth of the human kind!" Simon said.
"The strong always judge the weak. Humans made their judgement of me. Thus, they are sentenced to extinction. Sympathy is merely a form of weakness." Dracula said.
"That's crazy." Joe said.
"You have betrayed me, Alucard. For that, your punishment is death, along with these creatures." Dracula said.
"Your reign of terror ends here Dracula!" Richter said.
Dracula gets up from his throne before tossing the glass goblet, he moves his cape before teleporting and facing the group.
"Go Corsola!" Misty said calling her.
"It's your turn Forretress!" Brock said calling him.
*NOTHING TO LOSE (CASTLEVANIA: HARMONY OF DESPAIR)*
Dracula unleashes many orbs of darkness at the group but they manage to dodge the attack, then Joe realizes aerial slashes with his Keyblade while Gomamon scratches the lord vampire, Pac-Man realizes a double aerial kick. Then Dracula vanishes in a flurry of bats and reappears behind the group and unleashes a carpet of flames on the ground but Corsola used Bubble Beam to extinguish the flames while Forretress uses Gyro Ball hitting the lord vampire repeatedly until he disappears and reappears while unleashing pillars of darkness under the group but they dodged, Cyli and Spiral fired shoots from their guns, then both Belmont tossed axes striking on Dracula, Boo pulled out a bat hitting a baseball ball and hit Dracula who disappears in another flurry of bats and reappears and unleashes more orbs of darkness but Alucard jumped to deliver an aerial kick, Pac-Man ate a fire berry to become Fire Pac-Man and unleash a flamethrower against the lord vampire, Yoshi tosses eggs and Luigi casts Thundaga.
"Begone mortals!" Dracula said before launching multiple sets of red and blue magic orbs.
They dodge the attacks and try to attack the lord vampire but Dracula vanishes in a flurry of bats and reappears and sends out streaks of darkness and then unleashes orbs of darkness but Alucard triple slashed him with the Crissaegrim and kicked him, Corsola attacks using Spike Cannon and Forretress using Pin Missile, Dracula retaliates firing three fireballs, Joe vertical slashes him with his Keyblade followed by casting Balloons, Gomamon uses Marching Fishes, Dracula teleported again followed by summoning fire pillars but they dodged, Fire Pac-Man spits fireballs and Yoshi tosses eggs, then Richter tosses a cross hitting Dracula and Simon realizes a rising attack with the Vampire Killer and Luigi realizes a critical High Jump Punch and makes Dracula to stand in one knee.
"I see… You mortals are more formidable than I thought, but I won't be defeated by YOU!" Dracula says before transforming into a large green winged demon (just like in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night) and roars to the group.
*BLACK NIGHT - CASTLEVANIA: THE ARCADE (SUPER SMASH BROS ULTIMATE REMIX)*
"Uh-oh…" Brock, Misty, Joe, Gomamon, Luigi and Yoshi gulped after seeing Demonic Dracula.
Then the transformed lord vampire spits a series of three spirits which they were tracking the heroes but they manage to dodge but Demonic Dracula jumps and slams his fist to the ground producing a shockwave which hits them. Brock and Misty returned their Pokémon.
"It's your turn, Steelix!" Brock said calling him.
"Go Gyarados!" Misty said calling him.
"Mega Evolve!" They said using the Keystones and both Pokémon transformed into Mega Steelix and Mega Gyarados.
"Gomamon, Digivolve to the Mega Level!" Joe said pulling out his Digivice.
Gomamon Warp Digivolve to… Vikemon!
"Very interesting creatures." Alucard said watching both Pokémon and one Digimon reaching their max levels of power.
Demonic Dracula charges up before spitting a widespread of three fireballs but Mega Gyarados uses Hydro Pump which goes through the fireballs and hits Demonic Dracula, followed by Mega Steelix using Heavy Slam which covered himself in steel energy before lifting to the air and slam against Demonic Dracula who roars in pain, Alucard summoned a floating knight in blue armor with a big sword and shield and slashes the transformed vampiric lord who retaliates by charging up and spits an electric shockwave but they dodged the attack.
"Viking Flare!" Vikemon uses the morning star on his back to unleash powerful hits against Demonic Dracula.
Demonic Dracula does a wide overhead swing with his claws but he clashes against the fist from Vikemon causing a shockwave.
"Bazooka Howl!" Vikemon howls with all of his berserker rage flinching Demonic Dracula.
Both Belmont attack lashing their Vampire Killers damaging greatly Demonic Dracula, Yoshi performs aerial kicks and headbuts against Dracula, the quartet ghost attack tossing slimy shots, Luigi casts Blizzaga, Boo slams his head before double punching Demonic Dracula who retaliates spitting three spirits but they were hold by the guns from Cyli and Spiral, Fire Pac-Man attacks unleashing another flamethrower, Mega Gyarados attacks using Aqua Tail while Mega Steelix uses Iron Tail with both hitting Demonic Dracula who retaliates swiping with his claws but they dodged, then Joe triple slashes him with his Keyblade, he followed with Air Spiral and casted Spark.
"Arctic Blizzard!" Vikemon realizes his attack finishing off Demonic Dracula.
*ENDS*
Demonic Dracula growls in intense pain while holding his chest, he slowly backs up from the heroes but he puts a hand in a window and he falls by the smashed window as they see Demonic Dracula falling while covered in purple flames before disappearing completely. Then Pac-Man reverted to his regular form, Vikemon reverted back into Bukamon while both Mega Evolved Pokémon reverted to their forms too and were returned inside the Pokéball from their respective trainers.
"It is finally over?" Bukamon asked.
"Yes, but for now." Simon said.
"Even if we defeat Dracula, the curse will not end, meaning that Dracula will return but we'll be ready if he returns again." Richter said.
"Unless finally I overcame my fears in this castle." Luigi says satisfied.
Then Joe's Keyblade glows and realizes the procedure to unlock the gate.
"I think it's time to depart." Joe said.
"We're coming with you." Simon said at the sides of Richter and Alucard.
"Ok, after all we're recruiting heroes." Luigi said.
"Sorry, but we must return to our new base." Blinky said.
"It was funny helping you to defeat Dracula." Clyde said.
"Are you sure you don't want to come with us?" Bukamon asked the slimy ghosts.
"No, we must check what Bowser and the others are doing for their next plan and we'll tell you guys." Inky said.
"Someday we'll meet again Boo." Pinky said and Boo blushed.
Then Blinky, Inky, Pinky and Clyde returned to the Castle That Never Was. Unfortunately Dr. Buttocks was spying on them and he was holding a video camera and recording the events.
"Now Lord Betrayus and Bowser will love to know this information." Dr. Buttocks said.
Dracula's Castle: Exterior
Dracula is back to his regular form but he is injured after the battle.
"Need a hand mister?" Dr. Buttocks asked the lord vampire.
"Save your compassion." Dracula said.
"I'm just trying to help you after you were defeated by Pac-Man and his friends." Dr. Buttocks said.
Without options, Dracula nodded and Dr. Buttocks summoned the dark corridor. Both villains enter the Dark Corridor and arrive at the so-called Organization's XIII world.
Castle That Never Was
Bowser was in the castle putting more decorations in the new castle and in a room he added an exact replica from Wendy's room.
"This castle will need more furniture just like the old one." Bowser said.
Bowser suddenly heard a thud sound, dumbfounded he was trying to find the sound, then he heard the thud sound again, he was trying to find the origin until he saw his tail lifted before being dropped by Elmyra and she looked up at him.
"Look it." Elmyra said.
Bowser screamed in panic as he tripped on the floor and backed away from her against the door. However, Elmyra smiles before pouncing on his tail.
"Not the tail! Not the tail!" Bowser exclaimed.
Then Bowser grabbed Elmyra with his nails and pulled her off his tail. He ran into a warehouse door and attempted to put Elmyra inside that door and he closed the door, but by his surprise he saw Elmyra in front of him and yelped in fear.
'That girl is scarier than the baby princess.' Bowser thought while sweating in fear.
He turned to the door and picked Elmyra up by the back of her shirt, ran into Wendy's room and placed her on the bed, but he tripped and crashed into the toys.
"I must hide somewhere…!" Bowser said before running away.
He keeps running until he arrives into a bathroom recently added inside the castle, he manages to lose her from his sight and sighs in relief before walking away but Elmyra appears held in Bowser's back as he turns the corner. Then Bowser screamed running away from Elmyra.
"Come back Mr. turtle." Elmyra said chasing Bowser.
Later Bowser gathered with Montana Max, Bowser Jr, the Koopalings, Jr. Troopa, Boshi, the Siamese Cats, Lucifer, King K. Rool, Krusha, Klump, King Dedede, Escargoon, Ridley, Dingodile, Tiny Tiger, Pete, Big Bad Wolf, Prince John, Gantu, Hämsterviel, Experiment 625, the hyenas, Kaa and Randall.
"What's the hurry mate?" Dingodile asked.
"Be careful with her, she is scarier than the baby princess…!" Bowser asked.
"Who?" King K. Rool asked.
"Hello." Elmyra greeted and appears behind Bowser.
"What is Elmyra doing here?" Montana asked.
"Ooh, a lot of animals to play with!" Elmyra said.
"Animals!?" Big Bad Wolf asks in shock.
"Play!?" Escargoon asks scared.
"Argh! Mommy!" Prince John screams in fear before sucking his thumb.
Elmyra approaches them but they slowly back away.
"Heh, I know how to scare children." Randall said before turning invisible.
Then he tries to scare the girl appearing in front of her but nothing happens, he tries again but Elmyra is laughing.
"Aren't you scared?" Randall asked her.
"You're very funny." Elmyra said.
"What!?" Randall exclaimed and then he turned invisible.
"Can't you do something!?" King Dedede asked Bowser.
"It's my first time meeting her." Bowser replied.
"I know what to do." Kaa said approaching Elmyra.
"Do you want to play with me?" Elmyra asked.
"Yes, and I know a game, just look in my eyes." Kaa said as he put Elmyra into a hypnotic trance.
*TRUST IN ME (JUNGLE BOOK)*
Kaa: Trust in me
Just in me
Shut your eyes
and trust in me
You can sleep
Safe and sound
Knowing I
Am around
Elmyra was falling asleep in Kaa's body while the villains were watching.
Slip into silent slumber
Sail on a silver mist
Slowly and surely your senses
Will cease to resist
Trust in me
And just in me
Shut your eyes
And trust in me…
*ENDS*
Then Elmyra was asleep in Kaa's body and the python tried to eat her.
"Wait there Kaa!" Bowser said. "You did a good job putting her to sleep, but we can use her to play with the animal heroes, when they see her they will run away."
"There's only one problem, there is no way to scare the major Sonic and Shadow the Hedgehog either." Hämsterviel said.
"Maybe you're right." Bowser said.

"When did they arrive here?" Bowser asked.
"We managed to recruit more villains." Ganondorf said.
"Congratulations, now we have the bigger team of villains." Bowser said.
As he was hearing the introductions a Dimensional Rift appeared which came out a man dressed as farmaceutic in the company of a robot man with a business suit.
"Where am I?" He asked.
"I don't know." The robot replied.
Then the villains turned to see them.
"Look what we have there." Tirek said.
"One human and another robot." Megatron said.
"Hi! I'm Norm!" Norm the robot says greeting.
"What are we gonna do with them?" Dio asked.
"First tell me what's your name?" Bowser asked the farmaceutic.
"I'm Doctor Heinz Doofenshmirtz." Doof introduced himself. "But my friends call me... forget it…"
"His name is really hard to remember." Butch said.
"Why are you dressed as a farmaceutic?" Tomura asked Doof.
"Confusion is very common for the robe but I am an evil scientist." Doof replied before asking. "By the way, where are we?"
"In our new home for villains." Eggman said putting his hand on Doof's shoulder.
"And we are villains." Dr. Cortex said.
"He is right and for the right touch." Gargamel said.
*IT'S OUR HOUSE NOW (MICKEY'S HOUSE OF VILLAINS)*
Pinky and Brain turned on the music in a phonograph.

*ENDS*
They ended the song as Bowser laughed evilly. Blinky and the other ghosts watched the song as they tried to walk away slowly.
"Where are you going, you four?" Lord Betrayus asked them.
"We need to keep spying on Pac-Man and his new friends." Blinky replied.
"Yeah." Inky agreed.
"Hey Pinky." Lord Betrayus said before asking her. "Since when have you and Pac-Man been together?"
"I just track him to our traps." Pinky said nervously.
"But he and his friends are trickier than us." Clyde added.
"Yeah, I remember when they recovered the Life Tree." Lord Betrayus said. "But there is something that Dr. Buttocks knew all along."
"Sorry, but we must go." Pinky said.
"But why do you ask?" Blinky asks nervously.
"Because you four are working with... Pac-Man! You traitors!" Lord Betrayus yelled.
After hearing the words, all the villains surrounded Blinky, Inky, Clyde and Pinky who froze in shock.
"Let's destroy them." Orochimaru said.
"I have a better idea, I will drain their love, I will have enough for weeks." Chrysalis said.
Four allies were discovered as the villains kept glaring at the four traitors.
