*In the lavish landscape of Altea,a blue haired man over looks the forest area,merel passing some trees,near him is a long blue haired woman,holding a lance to her right hand*
*Main Theme (FE:MOTE Ver.) from Fire Emblem plays*
?:It is great that the land is at peace yet again.
?:Indeed,Marth. Thanks to our efforts,Altea can once again see the next morning.
Marth:Well Caeda. What shall we do today?
Caeda:Well so far,I have been told some of our army is mainly going around and seeing how our land is now with the defeat of Medeus Marth:Indeed. It would be nice to see how the kingdom's people are doing.
*As the two walked further down,they noticed and heard voices all coming from within the forest.*
Marth:Do you hear that?
Caeda:Yes I do. What's going on over there.
*The two investigate further into the forest,where they see a group of axe wielding brigands,accompanied by a sword wielding mercenary*
Bandit:What is that?
Bandit:What kind of blade is it?
Bandit:Do you think we should take it?
Bandit:You idiot,it's implanted into the ground. Plus the weird thing in the middle of this sword looks strange.
Mercenary: Calm down,all of you. We can debate about what this sword is once we take it.
Marth:What is that sword?
Caeda:I've never seen anything like it.
Marth:The only thing we can do is observe. *As the two overlooked the situation,they heard the rustling of armor,as a cloaked figure was walking from a different part of the forest and walked out to where the bandits and the unknown sword were.*
?:I suggest you get away from that blade. You will die trying to wield it. Or rather,be consumed by it's very anger and fall victim to it's will.
Bandit:Who the hell are you! You know this thing?
?:I know better than to let it live on and take other lives.
You must leave that blade alone. Now!
Bandit:You think we'd be stupid to not let something like that slip through our hands!
*The Figure takes out a giant sword*
?:You will leave,even if I intend to use force.
Marth:Something tells me he knows that blade has something evil behind it.
Caeda:Best we help him. Whatever this sword is,might be a new threat.
*Marth and Caeda come out of the trees*
Mercenary:Damn it! If this guy wasn't bad enough,the Prince himself is here too.
Bandit:With Princess Caeda too! Oh man what a bad day to be here!
Marth:I suggest you stand down now. Much less you wish to leave here safe.
Bandit:That does it! I'm not going down without a fight. Let's get him.
Mercenary:It's crazy to think we can actually beat him. But it's worth a shot.

*After defeating a few enemies*
*Accelerating Chaos (PXZ2 Ver.) from Namco X Capcom plays*
*The strange blade starts to shake. The middle area of the blade reveals it was a living eye,as it opens up.*
?:No! Soul Edge has awakened again!
*A strange energy comes out of the blade,as four strange creatures appear*

Caeda:What are those things!
Marth:I don't know,but what we knew about the blade was right.
Bandit:WAH! WHAT IS THAT!
?:Damn. I should have guessed by now that Soul Edge would once again rise. I won't let you escape me this time. The torment you forced upon me was too great for me to have a peaceful life again.
This time I will end you once and for all,demon! I know well how bad this blade is.
*The man removes his cloak,to reveal a long blonde haired man dressed up in heavy armor.*
?:This time,You will be destroyed.
*Soul Edge glares at the blonde man*
?:So,you've come to end me. No one will defeat me. Not even you,Siegfried Schtauffen.
*The evil sword flashes,as a being covered in purple armor,and a demonic looking right arm appears.*
*Raise Thy Sword from Soul Calibur II plays*
?:You will offer your soul to me! All of you will offer your souls to me!
Siegfried:Never again shall you plague my thoughts. This time you die,you nightmare!
?:Indeed. I shall be the greatest nightmare!
Marth:Who is this!
Caeda:Is this what the sword's true form is!
Siegfried:No,rather it is a simple vessel. Soul Edge once took control of me,forcing me into that form you see before you. I suffer so much being it's slave. But no more. I found out it could possess the ability to manifest the form,even without the use of my body. I fear it may once again take another in its long line of puppets. The creatures that aid it are Charades.
I have fought them before. I will no longer allow the sword to live. For within it's evil form,lies an even greater evil.
Nightmare:You will not stop me. This world and it's souls will all be mine!
Siegfried:I had enough of your words.
Marth:If that is the case,allow us to aid you.
Caeda:We won't allow this thing to take our world and rip it apart.
Siegfried:I see. Then I thank you for your aid.

Nightmare:What is this!
