Chapter ‘11: Forest monster.

Ruvas forest, Warakiya. The 18^th. of December 2098 A.D.

The castle’s influence reached this far. Heinrich Schneider touched his crucifix. “Bless me.” Patrick Oldrey sniffed the air. “I have a bad feeling about this.” They got to hunt the night. The count held the countryside in an iron grip. “The curse of Darkness.” Heinrich sighed. “Alright.” He retrieved the map. Patrick snarled. “I know.” He had purchased from Renon. The man-beast didn’t trust him.“Okay.” Patrick got his reasons. “This isthe Ruvas forest.” The weather had changed. Heinrichmade the sign of the cross. The man preferred the winter. “This isn’t natural.” Patrick growled. “Then tell me about it.” Heinrich got so tired about it. The forest got caught within an endless autumn. “Perfect.”Heinrich sighed. He made a step. The boot mushed through death leaves and into the marsh. “Good Lord!” Heinrich exclaimed. “How ugly!” The wines climbed up the trees. He got a feeling they tried to strangle the forest. Heinrich made a grimace. The bitter sweetstenchmade him sick. “May it be cast into Hell.” The leaves hung on the green life like a mockery of spring. Heinrich cared about his country. “Watch out!” Patrick got his gun. The ravensgot obscured by the mist. “God with us!” Heinrich struck with the sword. The birdswent about. He would fight the righteous battle.

The ravensburned to ashes. Patrick reloaded his pistol. The hunter leaned upon the sword. That blade was a relic to the family. Heinrich told that it once belonged to Michael Geilhardt. The man-beast wasn’t quite sure.The German gentleman wasmarried to Rachel Belmont. She was Richter’s cousin. That was not the problem. Patrick got confused by the bloodline. Either way, his friend had no right.Heinrichs father was the second son. He knew the drill. Alicia left the weapon behind. She never forgot anything. The golden cousin had a busy day. That could wait. Patrick fired. He got the birds. Patrick hit the candles. “Thank the Lord.” That was nice. He picked the rounds. The man-beast also took the money. “Keep it quiet.” The coins might come in handy. “Return to the Shadow.” Heinrich presented the crucifix. “The fires of Hell will not avail you!” He threw the enflamed daggers forward. “Get lost!” The monster got impaled. “You are a hunter.” Patrick smirked. The thing got ripped to pieces. “They used to tease me.” Heinrich sighed. He took the gems. “Our schoolmates were idiots.” Patrick assured. “You got the Belmont genes.” The man-beast tapped his shoulder. “Wait!” The smell made his hair to stand on end. “I don’t like this.” They reached beneath the dome.

Oblivion ridge, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The valley got obscured by the mist. Torah Fernandez looked at the sky. “This is the curse.” She thought they fixed the problem. That was not the case. Torahsighed. They got to hunt. “Do you even have to ask?” Marcia huddled together. The fairycouldn’t fly in this climate. She sat upon her shoulder. Alicia Schneideralsodisliked the forest. “This is the autumn.” That was impossible. They were at the heart of winter. Torah sighed. No one seemed to care. Her hair got soaked by the water. She got afraid. The rain left it slick about her features. Torah removed the poncho. The airgotso dank. The sorceress was afraid she might turn ill. She looked to the hunter. Torahwas shy. “Come on.” Alicia had unzippedthe leather jacket. The white T-shirt got plastered against her torso. That revealed her bosom. Torah blushed. “Relax girl.” Aliciahad noticed about her condition. She shrugged. “There is no shame.” Alicia pulled her short blonde hair into a pony-tail. “Fine.” Torah stepped through the mush. She got to pull free. Alicia gave a hand. “Thanks.” Torah never knew her mother. “Alright.” Alicia wasnot the type.Though she was kind enough. “They are here!” Marcia breathed. “The black riders.” Torah shuddered.“Get off the road.” Alicia reached for the crucifix.

The wines grew upon the trunk. Alicia shuddered. They hid behind the trees. She felt so cold. The rider disappeared from sight. Alicia drew her hands on her trousers. The fright subsided. His image renewed her courage. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel.” Alicia felt better. “Nearer to thee.” She sighed. “My God.” Alicia made the sign of the cross. The rain went on. She closed the jacket. Alicia cleaned her glasses. “I feel like an MC-honey.” She muttered. Alicia inhaled. “This is dangerous.” Torah approached. “They cannot die.” The girl was pale. “They stand with count Dracula.” Alicia kept turning on the bracelet of Alchemy. “I know.” The legends told that Desmond, Sue and Dolores Belmont discovered the treasure in 1666. Alicia frowned. The poltergeist king gave it to her. That was a mystery. She felt at a loss. “Alright.” She released the crucifix. “I do believe.” Faith was the key. That might be difficult. “I wish that Alucard was here.” Torah sighed. “I know.” She repeated. Alicia missed him too. “He had no choice.” She reminded. “Alucard got to leave.” Alicia got a flashback about that. The horn-playing druid came to find them. Alicia bit her lip. She got dizzy. “Bloody Tears.” The girl picked on the ring smash. Alicia touched her forehead. The memories awoke.

 

Flashback.

 

The snow kept falling. Alicia got ahead. The wind whipped cold into her face. “Stop!” Alucarddemanded a halt. “Where is the Fernandez girl?!” She looked about. “Here I am!” She sighed with relief. The sorceress had fallen into a hole. “Please! Help me to get up!” Torah reached for the branches. “I think I found something!” Alucard helped her to climb up. “Look here.” Torah spread her fingers. “What is that?” The compass was made of gold. Alicia frowned. She had known about the legend. “That artefact might tell you were to be.” The fairy fluttered before her face. “That is the treasure of the forest.” Alicia tied the scarf. She felt at a loss. “You must take it.” A figure arrived through the storm. “It belongs to you.” He gave herthe bracelet. “That is right.” Alicia couldn’t stop him. He put it around her arm. “Follow me.” The Saint reached for Alucard. “The boy is in danger.” She knew this person. “You are the poltergeist king.” The saint gave no sign. “Christian Belmont is out on the ice.” He beheld the tragic prince. “He do not stand alone.” Alucard assured. “What is going on?” Torah asked. “You shall know.” Germain promised. “Thatcan wait.” He closed his hand. “This is vital.” Alicia shook her head. Though before she might ask, they vanished from sight.

 

End of flashback.

He was the poltergeist king. Alicia dried her tears. She never figured it would be like this. Then again, she had begun to trust in the tragic prince. Alucard had kept her safe. “Let it be.” She put that aside. Alicia got no time. She would hunt the night. They each got a part to play. Alicia pushed at the glasses. “Are youall right?” Torah looked up into her face. “The curse.” She sighed. “We might continue.” Alicia cleared her voice. “I am fine.” She quit mooning. “We have to leave this accursed place.” The sorceress picked the ring smash. “Let us hunt.” She unsheathed the sword. The weapon felt good in her hand. She thought abouther cousin. Edward got in trouble. She would not be afraid. They were the heirs to the house of Belmont. She cut the vine. They grew so thick. Alicia had a bad feeling they were apart of the problem. She licked her lips. The rain kept on. She felt like the forest was about to rot. “This is bad.” Torah kept the watch. “Get away!” Marcia was the first who noticed. “The birds of Uriel!” She threw the axe. The birds were dangerous. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel.” Alicia approached the ravens. “Oh my God!” Torah looked ready to vomit. “Watch out!” Something reached through the mud to grab her. “Please, save us from evil!” Alicia got numb. The evil hand might pull her down under. “Homing ball!” The sorceress cast the steam blast. The zombie burned to ashes. “Dracula’s curse disturbed the graveyard!” Alicia looked about. The tombstones got overgrown by that strange nameless vegetation. “The order was here.” She had no doubt. “Homing ball!” Torah cast another spell. The black birds got torn to pieces. “Rest in peace.” Alicia bent to use the dagger. She got to remove the hand. “Sleep tight!” Martia put the ravens to sleep. The fairy dust kept shining. Martia almost fell into the mud. The rain prevented from flying. Alicia managed to grab her. “The curse.” Marcia flickered. “The curse is to blame.” Alicia knew about the problem. “Homing ball!” Thora cast a spell. The hands reached to take her. Alicia threw the vials. She cleansed the earth. “So let it be.” That couldn’t last. She was not a priest. The dead were alive. The tree tumbled to the ground. “Good God!” Torah exclaimed. The moss men gathered about. “Save us.” Alicia shuddered. The figures were made from theclay, plant life andhuman remains. “They are the undead!” She made the sign of the cross. “Homing ball!” Torah shrieked. The magic got consumed. “They are not alone!” Marcia concealed her face. The spiders lived inside the fallen trunk. They climbed about to create the web. Torah got in action. She cut with the razor rings. “Dracula’s curse!” She cried. The moss men were resistant. The sword got stuck in the fabric. Alicia threw the flurry of crosses. The storm raged inside. The monsters were cut to pieces. The man touched her features. That felt revolting. “Leave me.” The hand was sticky and cold. She pierced the heart. The monster burned. “Beware of the dark.” Torah presented the cross. The skull beneath the skin. “Retribution!”Alicia hid her eyes. The glasses became a shield. Alicia made the huge enflamed cross to appear overhead. That should cleanse the cemetery. She brushed off the ashes. The laurels restored her. “Get away!” Torah bent to cut the hand. The smash got stained with blood. That didn’t matter. Alicia took the gems. She got to fight. Torah hid behind the cross. They tried to snatch her. “Leave her alone!” Alicia made a glide. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She cried. “Homing ball!” Torah shot the zombies.

The rain was over. Marcia could fly. “You won’t eat me.” The spiders might be dangerous. Theirnet might trap her. Marcia had made up her mind. She would put the colony to sleep. The spiders looked hungry. They kept on chewing. The fairy became blue with emotion. “Thank you.” The hunter made it to rain with holy water. “You saved my life.” Torah got up. “I have no regret.” Alicia helped her on foot. “I would die for you.” The respite was closed. “The net is complete!” Marcia went at the spiders. She threw the dust. “Get away from there!” Torah threw the ring like a boomerang. The web was cut. The sorceress retrieved her weapon. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia cried. The enflamed blast removed the tree. They shared the gems. Marcia had no use for them. The fairies might create the elf stones. She put that aside. The mother prohibited. Alicia moved in front. The wines must be removed. Alicia stopped. The fairy looked behind. The evil hand reached out from another headstone. The zombie was not alone. The hunter struggled to get free. “Not again!” Marcia flickered. The ravens hid among the branches. The black birds came forthe kill. That was not allowed. The moss men caught her. “Release me!” The monsters threw her into the net.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The storm kept hurling the white about. Alfred inhaled. “Pepper breath!” This better work. “Nova explosion!” He was the leader. “Fire and ice.” Penny hid a smile. “You can say that.” Alfred pulled through his messy brown hair. “They had to die.” He pulled at the goggles. They might support his eyesight. “You have no choice.” Sigmund was hard like his element. “I know.” He sighed. “Blue blast!” The ravens had returned. “Howling blast!” Sigmund cried. They got surrounded. “Spiral twister!” Deborah released the whirlwind. “Marching fishes!” The zombies got shot to pieces. “Super shocker!” Reichardt made it to strike. “Poison Ivy!” Lucy was cute. She threwthe strawberry blonde hair away from her face. “Lightning blast!” The redhead called lightning to his hands. “Bubble boom!” Heinz looked ready to vomit. “Cat eye hypnosis!” Penny was not deterred. Hergaze stopped the monsters. “Nice work.” Alfred made up his mind. “Pepper breath!” They got to reachthe village. “Seven Heavens!” The force ripped through the zombies. “Testament!” The handful of energy gave an edge. “Meteor wing!” Deborah tugged at her red hair. “The time is up.” Simon checked his Rolex. “Horn Torpedo!” Hepierced the net. “Alright!” Alfred called. “We are all in this together!”

Ruvas forest, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The evil hand had lost the grip. Torah charged. “Homing ball!” She made the spell to circle. The ravens kept behind. Alicia threw a storm of daggers. The sorceress might track the power. That had an impact. The moss men got put on fire. Torah struck. The tombstone crumbled. The hand got visible. She made it to burn. Torah hit the candles. The items might get useful. “Homing ball!” The frost stopped the monsters. “Good God!” She didn’t expect the outcome. Torah threw it aside. She got to save the fairy. The moss men gave her to the spiders. “Perfect.” The web must be burned. Torah got to work. They tried to take her. “Be gone.” Torah knew they might inflict a poisoned state. Never mind. Marcia was alive. “Sleep tight!” She released the fairy dust. The spiders fell asleep. That was alright. Torah tightened her grip. The men might tear them apart. She exhaled. Torah had promised not to rest. “Homing ball!” She fought for the children. “Homing ball!” The flare collided with the monsters. “Come on!” She kept shooting. The gems gave her the energy. “Stronger we are in the name of the Lord!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. That was the finale. Though the wines became a problem. The sorceress might remove the greenlife. “Nasty web goblins.” The spiders created the net.

The forest had changed. Alicia beheld the outlook. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She better burn the net. The tree had tumbled to the ground. “I have a bad feeling about this.” The fairy got away. Alicia made the sign of the cross. They had to climb into the forest. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. The ravens hid among the branches. “Running scared!” The mist obscured the night-scape. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia cried. She threw the vial. Alicia made it to rain with holy water. The flock got burned to ashes. “Alright.” She retrieved the jewels. They got to continue. The ditch went about the forest. “We are in trouble.” Torah picked with the ring smash. “The fall is too steep.” That was right. Alicia pulled up the glasses. They got no choice. She looked about. The forest was like a wall. “Let it be.” She touched the crucifix. “Here we go again.” She went ahead. “I don’t like this.” Torah looked about. “I know.” They reached the rock. “Stronger we are.” This was the cave. “In the name of the Lord.” Alicia licked her lips. There was a pillar rising above the spikes. “Follow me!” Marcia lit up in the dark. “Let me show you!” Torah leaped. “Homing ball!” She used the orb like a lamp. “Consider me gone.” Torah vanished among the shadows. “Wait!” Alicia touched the crucifix. They should hunt together. “Come!” Marcia kept behind. She was a light. “Look out!” The stone rebounded. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” That was no coincidence. Alicia got above. “Homing ball!” Torah knelt. She cast the spell. The steam might be a problem. “Leave her alone!” The goblin had a talisman. “You freak!” Marcia shot at the face. “Sleep tight.” She threw the dust. “Here!” Alicia called. “Try this!” She crushed his skull. “Rest in peace.” The goblin burst from within. Alicia had alook about.The passage climbed up the ridge. “Let it be.” She tightened her grip. This got to be a trap. The rock hit the floor. “Homing ball!” There was another goblin. “Hurry on!Continue!” Marcia was bright. Theyhad reached the forest. “Human trash!” The gnome got protected. She expected no less. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia made a glide. “Right.”He sidestepped the onslaught. “Then let me make you happy.” Alicia shuddered. “Save me!” She pulled on the glasses. Alicia would not become his prostitute. “You won’t touch her.” Torah threw the ring like a boomerang. “Whore!” He tried to hide. The smash broke his torso. “The Enforcer take you!” He hit the wall. “Fire in the hall!” Marcia cried. “Good God!” Torah hid behind the cross. “Rest in peace!” Alicia tugged on the braid. The gnome exploded. She took the gem. “Fine.” Alicia cleaned her glasses. “Oh my God!” Torah found the smash. “What is it?” Alicia asked. “This is it.” Marcia exclaimed. “This istheransom of the king.” Alicia had no mind. “Do not touch the gold.” She bit her lip. Alicialooked at the candles. They might contain the real treasure. She hit the lot. “The light.” They got to share the gems. Alicia felt much better. She would hunt the night. “Keep behind.” Alicia picked the coins. Nothing happened. She exhaled. “Let it be.” They got to pay Renon. “Then let us be gone.” She returned to the cave. They still got to climb. Alicia picked the sword. “This is the way!” Marcia shone. “Tell me.” Torah looked about. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia kept behind. “In the name of the Lord!” They gotahead. Alicia got afraid. “This is the misty forest road.” She bit her lip. “The path leads to the top of the ridge.” Alicia got lost. “We must continue.” Torah looked up at her face. “There is a way.” She felt like a trap was closing in about them. “Curse of Darkness.” Alicia got a bad feeling about this. “Follow me.” She cut the wines. They grew upon the trees. “Beneath the skin!” The fairy went green. She threw the gold dust. The ravens shrieked. The flock nested atop the forest. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. “Fire in the hall!” The double shotexploded on impact. “Get down!” That was not enough. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia leapt into the air. She threw the axe. “Vampire Killer!” Alicia flashed. “Rest in peace!” The item crush cut their flock to pieces. She sighed. Alicia had to clean her glasses. She studied at the library. “For this is the war.” The prince of Darkness might possess them with his blood thirst. “That rests with the Lord.” There was nothing she could do about that. They had returned to the cemetery. “” Relax.” Torah explained. “I got you.” She charged her magic. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. The ravens got shot to pieces. “Sleep tight.” Marcia closed the deal. She put them to rest. Alicia exhaled. They might continue. “How horrid!” She exclaimed.“You bemore careful.” The ground gave way. Alicia almost stepped into the mud. “The weather is getting worse.” That was right. “Oh my God!” Alicia spun around. She threw up. Alicia might clean the mess. “Get back you devils!” They got in trouble. The zombies were awake. “Festival of Servants.” The dead kept groping her friend. “Wait a moment.” Torah closed her eyes. “They hunger.” Alicia shuddered. She knew. This couldn’t continue. Alicia would hunt the night. She inhaled. “Let it be.” She released the flame blast. The zombies got consumed by the fire. “Thank you.” Torah sighed. She got protectedfrom the flame magic. Alicia was leaning against the sword. The dead had left their graves. “Homing ball!” The flare exploded on impact. “Behind you!” The fairy cried. “To wake the dead!” She might smell the approach. The bodies stenched. Alicia threw the daggers. She impaled the heart. He left some coins. Alicia hit the candles. She retrieved the crystals. This was getting out of hand. Alicia threw a wave of holy water. That engulfed the zombies. “This is it!” Marcia found the headstone. “God of compassion.” She prayed.“Lead us and guide us.” This must be the witch’s icon. Alicia threw the cross. That broke the tombstone. “Fine.” Alicia made the sign of the cross. That was not the end. The zombies must be burned. Even the bits and pieces kept crawling for the kill.

The scores of the undead rosed from their graves in search of flesh. Marcia found the glasses. “Here they are!” She fluttered about the item. Alicia couldn’t see without them. “Thank you.” Alicia put them in place. “Good Lord!” The zombies would eat her. Marcia got work to do. She pierced the skull. Marcia went pink. The head broke on impact. That was disgusting. “Homing ball!” The spell put them on fire. “This is black magic.” She tried to clean herself. Marciadimmed. She got stained with the brain and blood. This was the price for the forest. The corpse reached to crush her. “Get lost!” Marcia went green. The fairy impaled the heart. Hestanched of the rotting flesh. She almost got to vomit. This was like fighting the pirates. “Homing ball!” Torah castthe steam blast from either hand. Her ring was made of pure gold. The zombies got shot to pieces. “Watch out!” Marcia cried. The corpse managed to get up. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia got ahead. She threw a flurry of crosses. “Yes!” Marcia cheered. “That is the way!” She danced through the air. “Then so let it be.” The headstone lay in pieces. “The fight is over.” Torah retrieved the ring smash. “Right.” Alicia ate the chicken. She looked better. “Let us continue.” Marcia would show the way.

The leader got ahead. Sigmund bit together. “Come on!” This was so stupid. “Pepper breath!” There were no time for heroics. “Let us get to work!” Then again, Alfred was in charge. “Flame rocket!” He released the wave of fireballs. “Blue blast!” Sigmund could do better. “Howling blast!” That froze them in place. “Birds coming in!” Lucy got her eyes wide open. The ravens were about. “Howling blast!” Sigmund got down. They pulled at his blonde hair. He got to shield the eyes. “Dracula’s curse!” The bone-scimitar broke the ice. “Poison ivy!” Lucy remained behind. She might tear the skeleton. “Bubble boom!” Heinz removed the head. “Lightning paw!” Penny kept by her brother. “Nova explosion!” Sigmund smirked. That hurt. “Wing blade!” Deborah spread her arms. The flare burned the zombies.“Rosetta stones!” Penny hurled the silver whiterocks. “The queen’s curse!” She might conquer the forest. “Flame rocket!” The leader caused a spreadshot. “Cat eye beam!” The star crest was visible. Penny fired the twin beams.She carved some space.“Oxygen torpedo!” Simon launched. That made him to focus.“Howling blast!” Sigmund caught the undead. “Exodus beam!” Heinz could defend himself. “Wind mane!” That was great. “Thunder ball!” Reichardt cried.

Ruvas forest, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The mist obscured everything. Torah got exhausted. “Homing ball!” She would keep the light. “The Lord preserve us.” Alicia made the sign of the cross. They got to leave the cemetery. “Watch out!” Marcia cried. “They are the rolling stones!” Torah felt like she got throttled. The high pillars loomed above the countryside. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia made a glide. She got beneath. “Good God!” Torah created the double shot. “Fine.” She blushed. The sculptures resembled the goddess of Aphrodite. Torah knew she was shy. “Nevermore!” The raven caught her attention. “Yeah!” The steam blast clipped him. “Right.” The bird got shot to pieces. “Oh my God!” The stone figure broke on impact. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. The skeleton hid inside. She conjured the ice magic. “Leave her alone!” The fairy broke the ribs. “You undead freak!” Torah threw the ring like a giant boomerang. The villain collapsed. Torah inhaled. She retrieved her inheritance. “The birds are coming!” Torah made a successive trust. The raven shrieked. She performed with the crisscross attack. The bird burned to ashes. Torah inhaled. She took the gems. “I got a bad feeling about this.” Torah left the money. She looked about. Alicia had vanished into the mist. She got to find her.

This was thequiet forest. Alicia stepped beyond the gate. The fog obscured the night scape. She reached for the crucifix. “Your lot look good enough to eat.” The goblin licked his lips. “The main dish has arrived.” The gravestone began to rattle. Alicia felt chills down her spine. The zombies were awake. “Now.” The gnome reached into his purse. “Strip off your clothes.” Alicia made a grimace. “Never in life!” She cried.“Suit yourself.” He picked the slingshot. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She got beneath the rock. The stone rebounded. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the flare. “Die you demons!” The double shot hit the zombies. Torah challenged the dead. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia had made an oat to hunt the night. The gnome threw a second stone. “In the name of the Lord!” She made a glide. “Get away!” He cried. Alicia gave no answer. She removed the head. That was enough. He was dead. Alicia sighed. She took the gem. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. “Preserve us from evil.” The purple plasma went in a circle. Alicia shook her head. That ripped the dead. “Here it is!” The fairy turned bright green. “This is it!” She fluttered above the headstone. “Homing ball!” Torah crushed it to pieces. The zombies kept rising. The girl spun around. She cut the dead. “Homing ball!” The blast removed the shackle. Alicia exhaled. The hunt was over. “Alright.” She got to open the gate. Torah had picked the gems. She was ready. The hinges creaked.Alicia had to push. “Preserve us from the Dark!” The lightning struck. The thunder followed. The hand touched her body. “Lord!” Alicia screamed. That felt so small and bony. “Alright.” Torah told. “Alright. It is me.” Alicia got to swallow her heart. “You never do that again.” The girl hid her mouth. “I didn’t mean to frighten you.” Torah pulled at her short dark hair. “That was cheap.” She picked on the ring. “Timber!” Marcia cried. The tree went down. “Look out!” The fairy went blue. Alicia recognised the colour. She accepted the challenge. The tree blocked the way. That might be a problem. They left the graveyard. “Homing ball!” Torah made the orbs to circle. She created a shield. The purple plasma exploded on impact. The ravens shrieked. Alicia disliked the show. The birds nested throughout the forest. “Stronger we are!” The storm raged inside. “In the name of the Lord!” This had to be the end. The five crosses spun about while the beam struck down. The ravens got burned to ashes. Alicia couldn’t relax. She retrieved the gems. “Preserve us.” Alicia reached for the crucifix. They approached the clearing. “Ugh! Ush!” Alicia stepped into the marsh. “Wait for me!” Torah cried. “Get lost!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. The moss men hid in the forest. “They might inflict a poisoned state!” Marcia figured about the spiders. “Do not forsake us.” The creatures lived within the trunk. “Get away!” The great spiders were unlike their siblings. The moss men were alive. “Fungous freaks.” Marcia burned. She frightened the monsters. Alicia inhaled. The vampire hunter got the heart of fire. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. She ambushed the moss men. “So let it be!” Alicia touched the crucifix. She made it to rain. The downpour burned the green life. “For great is the mystery of faith.” Now it was over. Alicia took the gems. The jewels restored her energy. “Watch out!” Marcia lit like a nova. “Beware!” That was too late. “Oh my God!” Torah had stumbled into the cobweb. “Alicia!” She cried. “Help me!” Alicia pulled at the glasses. “Then preserve us from the wicked One.” She got a bad feeling about this. The net was ancient. The corpses hung like the fruits of evil. Torah looked like the marionette. “Marcia!” She struggled to escape. “Please! Help me!” They got in trouble. “Be quiet.” Alicia pushed at the glasses. “You only attract the spiders.” The storm raged within her blood. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She leaped. Aliciathrew the circle of axes. That cut the net. “Right.” The axes got stuck in the branches. “Good Lord.” Alicia made the sign of the cross. That was close. She even killed the spiders. Alicia felt exhausted. There would never be enough. Torah hung from the web. She was pale. The spiders crawled for her location. “Get lost!” Alicia got ambushed. “You evil monster!” The moss man would break her neck. “Preserve us from the wicked One!” Alicia felt groused. “Rest in peace.” She almost had to vomit. Alicia stamped with the crucifix. The moss burned. She would resist the curse. Marcia went like a bullet. The fairy tried to impale the spiders. “Get away!” She would be caught. “No!” Marcia screamed. She got pulled against the trunk. The fairy then vanished among the leaves. “Marcia!” They cried in unison. “Homing ball!” The purple plasma split in three. “Good Lord in Heaven!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. The spiders got shot to pieces. Alicia ran. She threw the daggers. That cut the net. “Come on!” Torah had escaped. She went to find her friend. Alicia inspected the meadow. “So let it be.” The moon gave her more than enough light. There were no monsters in sight. Alicia exhaled. The pond looked clean. They might take a bath. That had to wait. They got to find the fairy. The spiders kept on crawling about. “Where do you hide?” Alicia reached for the crucifix. The hunter got lifted into the air. “In the name of the Father, the Son and of the holy Ghost!” The enflamed cross burst above. “May you be cast into the pit!” The net got ripped apart. “Get down!” The great spiders got caught in the outburst. Alicia picked the price. “Alright.” She got to help the others. “Oh my God.” Torah bent upon her knees. “Oh my poor Marcia.” She had found the fairy. “Forgive me.” Marcia almost got buried by the leaves. “My friend.” Torah shuddered. Tears had begun to form at the corners of her eyes. Alicia was speechless. The fairy was bruised and broken. Alicia felt so helpless. Even the laurels would be useless. Torah reached to hold her. “Be more careful now.” Alicia was unsure if they should touch her. “So help me God.” She felt at a loss. Alicia didn’t know what to do.

This was the end. Marcia fell among the dead leaves. She could shine no more. “ “My friend.” Torah brushed the withering greenlife. The fairy struggled to breathe. She was alive. “Torah.” She whispered. Her blood stained the marsh with crimson. Marcia got to speak. “I am here.” Torah told while the tears ran down her cheeks. “Thank you my friend.” She tried to smile. The pain twisted it into a grimace. “Promise.” She gasped. “Promise you will tell my mother.” Torah kept on weeping. “I will.” Alicia knelt beside her. “Please.” They looked confused. “Rose.” The fairy was in pain. Marcia got to tell the story. “She was taken.” Marciasobbed. “You got to save her.” The hunters exchanged glances. “My cousins came to the fountain.” Thus there was nothing left to do. “The old world of the fay is fading.” They got to continue. “You have to restore the balance.” The fairy knew her time was over. “I am so proud of you.” Marcia gathered. “Farewell.” She would shine for them. “One last time.” Her light was bright. “The Belmont clan is alive.” Marcia was not afraid. “To hunt the night.” This was not in vain. Marcia closed her eyes. “Have no fear.” Alicia told. “Rest in peace.” She touched the crucifix. “The Lord has forgiven all.” Marcia sighed. “That is your faith.” She then left into the light.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The bolt hit the forest. Reichardt shuddered. The static force cracked between his fingers. “Super shocker!” He felt the build-up of power. “Lightning blast!” The boy would fight. “Magna crush!” Alfred became enflamed. The flare trashed the undead. “Magna explosion!” He was the leader. “Thunder ball!” Reichardt knew his eyes were flashing. “Fishforce! «Simonhad created a fountain.“Horn torpedo!” The rocket burst on impact.“Gold rush!” They couldn’t escape. Lucy launched. She fired a set of five drilling missiles. “Storm wing!” Deborah became invisible. “Red fireball!” She hit the zombies. They burned like torches. “Horn bomb!” Reichardt caused the explosion. “Come on!” Alfred got ahead. “Ninja magic!” Lucy made several copies of herself. “Double star!” The Shuriken removed the monsters. That was incredible.“Fish net!” Simon caught the birds. He smashed them against the tree. “Volcano hammer!”Theyburst on impact. “Hand of fate!” Heinz cleaned up the remains. “Angel rod!” They must keep together. “Super shocker!” Reichardt would do his part. “Right!” Lucy spun in place. “Needle spray!” She smiled. “Double star!” She sliced the birds.“Lightning blast!” Reichardt gathered the force. “Thunder ball!” He made it to strike down.

Ruvas forest, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

This was crazy. Torah bathed in the pond. She felt so dirty. The forest got kept in endless fall. Torah hadn’t washed for quite a while. “This is good.” Alicia relaxed. She got the soap. “Fine.” Torah removed the grime. She giggled. Alicia swam into the moonlight. “Dark night.” Her hair shone like spun gold. “This is a respite.” Alicia washed their clothings. “I know.” She sighed. Torahstill mourned about Marcia. The fairy was a good friend. “Busybody..” Alicia had to climb from the pond. She lit a fire. Torah licked her lips. They must be careful. “We got to dry our items. Alicia hung them on a tree. That was untouched by the corruption. That was nice. Torah tried to hide. She was a prude. The classmates used to joke about her. Yoko was strict about such things. “It is alright.” Alicia gave no mind. She kept herself busy. “Thank you.” Torah blushed. Her friend liked girls. That was none of her business. “Relax.” Torah got ashore. She better prepare for the hunt. Alicia bent before the heart. That was fine. She could wait. “Here.” The outfit was clean. “Thanks.” Torah went aside to redress. “Come.” Alicia got ahead. “Right.” Torah picked the ring smash. “Let us continue.” She would fight. “That rests with the Lord.” Alicia made the sign of the cross. Then she unsheathed the sword.

There stood a single tree. Alicia made the sign of the cross. The tree was shapeless and naked.That was somehow important, like a landmark, a border stone or more like a guardian finger. Alicia shuddered. She felt like a trap was closing in around her. “I swore to hunt the night.” The journey through the mist had begun. Alicia would endure. “What is it?” Torah asked. “Homing ball!” The purple ball burned like a lantern. Alicia got speechless. She had to stop. The wind breathed cold through broken trunks and branches. Alicia cleaned her glasses. “Look out!” Torah exclaimed. “Oh No!” She broke from the reverie. “Get away from there!” She yelped. The branch fell down. That might crush them. “Treant!” The girl screamed. “From Hell!” The roots were moving. Treant would eat her. “Timber!” Alicia made a stance. Shegot to cut this giant. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Treant was humongous. He got animated by malicious forces. “Bewitched tree!” Torah twirled with the ring smash. The tree used the branches like a battering-ram. “Never in life!” Alicia hurled the three vials. Treant roared. The glass broke on impact. “Homing ball!” The plasma hit the foliate head. The ravens took the brunt. “Good Lord!” Alicia licked her lips. The carrions nested on top. The deciduous canopy almost hid the roost. She dismissed. That wasn’t important right now. The tree twirled with the roots. Torah got caught. The monster picked her. “Oh my God!” Torah got lifted into the air. The tree might admire her efforts. “Release me you demon tree!” The ravens would feed. “Stronger we are!” The eye of the storm. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia would prevent it. “Let it be!” She consolidated her blood force to get high enough. “Timber!” Alicia threw the daggers froward. The monster shrieked. He dropped her friend. Alicia gasped. That got to hurt. Treant got impaled.She collapsed. That exhausted her energy. “Glory be You.” Alicia whispered. “Our Father in Heaven.”Treant was alive. She inhaled. “Homing ball!” Torah cast a tripled steam blast. “Oh my God!” That cut the ropes. “Get lost!” The scores rised in the search of human flesh. “Stronger we are!” Alicia retrieved the sword. “In the name of the Lord!” They must be burned. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the steam spell. She fried the spiders. They dwelled in the trunk. Alicia got busy. The zombies would rape her. She held the crucifix. “Leave me alone!” Alicia cried. She could almost taste their hunger. They were so ugly. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She got to remove the head. That was not enough. Alicia impaled the undead heart. The body collapsed. She couldn’t rest. Alicia took the gems. “How horrible.” Theygroped her. Alicia shuddered. “Leave me alone!” Now she knew what Torah felt. She would be strong. The dead were getting up. “You devil!” Alicia threw the cross. That removed the skull. She picked the crystals. That was not enough. She hit the candles. The gems restored the force. Alicia inhaled. She got to carve some space. Alicia made a back-flip. She threw the enflamed axes. The zombies got knocked to pieces. The tree roared. She hit the trunk. That was no victory. She got caught. “Trunk from Hell!” Alicia got hurled away. She grunted. Alicia hit another tree. She had to get out of the mud. She screamed. Alicia felt like her spine was broken. “Preserve us!” She got to use the laurels. That was the last of her gems. “Homing ball!” Torah confronted the tree. The blast exploded. Alicia made the sign of the cross. The tree struck with the branches. “Get lost!” Torah ran. She left the gems. Alicia picked them up.“Fay killer!” The girl spun around. “Homing ball!” She cast the triple shot. Treant screamed. He was not prepared.Alicia presented the crucifix. The Lord would be with her. Treant got burned to ashes. She exhaled. The fight was over. “You were great.” Torah sighed. “I guess.” Alicia cleaned off the blade. The girl looked tired. That was none of her business. Alicia retrieved the lamp. The lady of the pond gave it to her. She almost forgot. “This is better.” Torah couldn’t keep the flame forever. “Thank you.” Alicia shrugged. “I am a Belmont.” She inhaled. “We hunt the night.” Torah hid her mouth. She went to retrieve the crystals. Alicia got her share. The gems replenished her energy. Treant left the treasure behind. “Let us continue.” Alicia hung the lamp upon her backpack. “Alright.” Torah got the ring smash. “Show me the way.” Alicia smiled. She couldn’t help it. “You are the leader.” Torah got serious. “Let me check this out.” She kept the gold compass. “This is the way.” She told. “Follow me.” Alicia made the sign of the cross. “Are you sure?” She asked. “That is the marsh pit.” Torah had a second look. “I am sure.” She put it in a purse. “Or at least this thing is certain.” Alicia touched the crucifix. They had argued about the item. The golden compass might show the way. The legends told the bearer became dependable. “Let it be.” Alicia got in front. The mist gathered about. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. She lit the forest. “Oh my God!” She almost tripped into a water hole. “Get away from there!” Alicia shuddered. They got in trouble. The frog leached with the tongue.“Stronger we are!” She presented the crucifix. “In the name of the Lord!” The raven moved in circles. “Fine.” The high grass and plant life obscured the view. Alicia licked her lips. She threw the dagger. That impaled the bird. “Help me!” Torah staggered. She had killed the frog. “I got poisoned!” She bent to vomit. Alicia got to help her. “Relax.” She used the laurels. “This is too easy.” Alicia got up. She could see beyond the obvious. The skeleton hid among the tree. “Save us!” Shescreamed. Alicia got in front of the girl. She would act as a human shield. “Homing ball!” The skeleton got shot to pieces. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” He was not alone. Alicia had no mind. She leapt above the water. The dead gathered for combat. “Come on!” She got to conquer. “Homing ball!” Torah chanted. She got the frog, raven and a skeleton. Alicia threw the vial. The marsh was so sticky and slick. She had to reach the other side.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The station looked abandoned. Deborah had a final sweep of the area. She had a bad feeling. There seemed to be nothing unusual. Deborah wouldreturn to the others. “Beyond the forest.”Deborah inhaled. She became visible. “Flame wall!” Alfred broke the skeleton. “Great claw!” They hid among the shrubbery. “Tail hammer!” Lucy gave a hand. “Volcano boomerang!” Simon closed the deal. His strike got an impact.Deborah sighed. She was the scout. “Alright.” Alfred tapped her on the shoulder. She blushed. Deborah tried to hide the crush. The boy was too old. “Where are you?” Deborah went invisible. That was her instinct. Sigmund only tried to be kind. “Follow me.” She let it drop. Deborah became visible. “Sure.” She led them through the forest. The gas-station wasn’t that far away. She had another look. Deborah really disliked the place. The motorbikes occupied the pumps. “Get ready folks..” This was ridiculous. “Good God!” Simon screamed. He went around the corner. “Come on!” Alfred ran. “Wait for me!” Reichardt managed to keep up. She went along. “Oh my God!” The sight was horrible. Deborah stopped dead in her track. Something caught her attention. Who was that boy? Deborah didn’t know. She blinked. That was only an illusion.

The tunnel, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The rockgot in the way. Torah held her hand aloft. “Homing ball!” The magic gave a light. “This is real stone.” Alicia inspected the boulder. “We have no choice.” She held the crucifix. “Youhave to climb.” Torah acknowledged.She expected it would be like this. “Alright.” They had left the marsh. This would not be easy. “I might reach the top.” Torah cast the spell. “Rise me up.” Alicia arched an eyebrow. The sorceress hung up the ring smash. “Come on.” Alicia had to bend. “Do not kick the lamp.” She would do her best. “Have no fear.”She told.The sound of running water grew evencloser. Torah wondered about that. “Here you go.” Alicia helped her to get up. The chamber got carved from the rock. “This is the bloody road.“ There were no river in sight. “You have to get up here!” Torah shouted. “Keep the faith.” Alicia used her blood force to reach atop. That was impressive. “The blood of the hunter.” The clanbecame famous for their agility. “Okay.” Torah turned around. That was a mistake. “Let us be friends.” He leapt on top. “Come on girl.” She tried to escape. “That is the spirit!” The freak gloated about her efforts. “We shall have fun.” He looked ready to bite her. “Believe me.” Torah got him in the jaw. “You slut!” He hit her in the face.

The chamber was carved from the bedrock. Alicia got work to do. Her friend got in trouble. The girl was screaming. Alicia lowered the lamp. “Leave her alone!” She had to be careful. Torah fought to get up. The goblin held her. “Homing ball!” The gnome wore a talisman. “Forget it!” He snarled. “You slut!” His hands reached beneath her skirt. “You will love it!”

Alicia got ill. The goblin groped her. “Come.” He smirked. The gnome tore at her underwear. “I will make you happy.” Torah made a head but. “You human whore!” He got no helmet. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia threw a vial. “In the name of the Lord!” This was a perversion. He got no right. Then the glass broke on impact. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” The liquid burned. “Preserve us!” The skeletons hid within the wall. Alicia made a back-flip. They reached to take her. Alicia shuddered. That was the chill of the grave. “Rest in peace!” The cold was so bitter. The bone-bags enjoyed her misery. Alicia touched the crucifix. “Stronger we are!” She flouted in the air. “In the name of the Lord!” The cross burned above. The band got put to rest. Alicia landed upon the floor. She hit the candles. “Glory be You!” Alicia proclaimed. “Our Father in Heaven!” She made the sign of the cross. “Into the night.” The stopwatch belonged to the house of Belmont. This was a copy. That was not important. “Leave her!” She almost forgot about her friend. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia reached for the crucifix. “You filthy animal! Take this! And this!” Torah struggled. “Be still, my little honeypot.” The goblin raised her up to hit her head against the stone wall. Torah groaned. “Oh, you really are a virgin.” The gnome spread her legs. He was ablaze. “That is not in the cards.” Patrick used to say that. “Ah, a bonus.” The goblin pulled a knife. “Though you have to wait your turn.” Alicia bit her lip. He was crazy. Torah tried to get up. The cross was burning. “You human slut!” He got to shield his eyes. “You will be a woman.” Alicia swallowed. The freak got burned to death. “That was nice.” Torah brushed the ashes. She had retrieved the ring smash. “Let us continue.” Alicia picked the lamp. “I am here.” They went to explore the tunnel. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia had to stop. “This must be the waterfall.” The river tumbled into the abyss. “We got to cross the bridge.” Torah observed. “I guess.” She sighed. They had to continue. The mist might be a problem. “Look out!” The corpse-weed grew on the mountain. This was cursed earth. Alicia shuddered. She made it to rain with holy water. The plantlife lit up. Alicia made the sign of the cross. “We have to leave this place!” Torah cried. “Homing ball!” She shot at the corpse-weed. “They will kill us!” The orb exploded. “Right.” Alicia got an idea. “Climb on my shoulders.” She bent in front. “Trust me.” Torah got on top. “Stronger we are!” Alicia used the stopwatch. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia ran across the logs. “Nice.” They reached the platform. Torah left her shoulders. “Watch out!” Alicia cried. The bone-man hid behind the wall. “Homing ball!” The girl shot him to pieces. Alicia pushed at her glasses. “Fine.” She exhaled. That was clever. “Homing ball!” Torah hit the candles. The girlknelt to pick up the jewels. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She left her behind. There was another skeleton. The man might choke her. Alicia got forced to kneel. He was so strong. She struggled for air. “That is enough.” Torah caught up. “Release her.” Her tone got made of steel. “Homing ball!” The steam blastremoved the skull. The bone-man staggered. He got no head! Alicia gasped. He tightened the grip. She felt so tired. Alicia had become red in the face. “Forgive me.” Torah rubbed at her tears. “This is not your fault.” Alicia had done her best. Now it was over. Her cousin would have to take her place. Alicia struck between the ribs. She had to breathe.“Thank the Lord!” The skeleton had collapsed into a heap. “Alright.” Torah closed her eyes. “Let me help you.” She would try. The girl was too short. Alicia shook her head. “Stand tall.” She told. Torah frowned. “Fine.” She shrugged. “Then let us hunt.” Torah got the ring smash. “Let it be.” Alicia groaned. She managed to get up. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. “Thank you.” She shed some light. “That will be enough.” She made the sign of the cross. “This will not be easy.” Alicia continued to investigate the waterfall. “There must be an exit.” The rivertumbled into the gorge. “The spring is up there.” Alicia had cleaned her glasses. “The waterseems clear.” Torah had a taste. “Okay.” Alicia believed in her judgement. “”Show me the way.” This time it was Torah who got in front. “Come on.” Torah encouraged. They got to investigate the gallery. The hallway went about the pool. “Wait a moment.” Alicia bent by the edge. “This I have to do.” She would cleanse the sword within the water. The mailman let her borrow this weapon. She would make the Claymore blade to shine again. The breeze touched her face. Alicia exhaled. Her hair got in motion. The wind tore the mist. “Do not forsake us.” The fog passed like the pieces of cloth. “Oh my God!” Torah exclaimed. The girl pointed a shaky finger. “What is that thing!?” Torah looked about ready to vomit. “We have a problem.” Wasthat the Fukurokuju? Noriko might tell. “This is a bad omen.” Alicia shuddered. “This might be the End of Days.” She inhaled. “Preserve us from the Dark.” She touched the crucifix. The huge turtle raised above the water. The image got twin heads. “This is impossible.” The forest grew upon the shell. Torah had become white like a ghost. “You have the freedom of choice.” Alicia assured. “Though Mina Hakuba might besorry.” She was a Shinto priestess. “Come on.” They got to complete the hunt. “That is a statue.” What could turn a spirit to stone? “I got a bad feeling about this.” Alicia didn’t wish to know. That might be impossible. The waterfall kept roaring. The sound was eternal. Alicia got tired. “We cannot stay.” She picked together. “We have to leave.” Alicia sighed. “Let me think.”

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The school bus got pierced by countless bullets. Simon hid his face. “What happened here?” He shuddered. The engine got dumped beside the misty forest road. Simon fought to swallow. The rust couldn’t conceal the passengers. The flies buzzed behind the broken glass. “Save us.” The others caught up. “This is a disaster.” Simon couldn’t comprehend. “This is unnatural.” The moths crawled and crept through rotten flesh. “This is wrong. This isn’t their season.” The creatures should be in hibernation by now. He shook his head. Simon cleaned the glasses. The children got executed. He had no doubt. “Menace.” Reichardt muttered. “Let us be gone.” Deborah vomited. “This is an evil place.” Simon bit his lip. He wished. “We have no choice.” The leader tapped her shoulder. “We have to find supplies.” He tried to comfort. “I know.” She sighed. “Sorry.” Deborah used the snow to clean her face. “Oh no.” Simon withdrew. “What?” Reichardt gathered a charge. “The evil lurks in the dark.” They looked around. Alfred conjured the flame. “Excuse me.” Simon shook his head. “I was certain.” He stopped. “Wind and fire.” Alfred kept the watch. This was a waste of time. “That should be burned.” The evil cross occupied the space in front of the amphitheatre. “We should purify this place.”

The tunnel, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

This was the end. Torah had a look around. “Silent madness.” The waterfall roared behind.“Homing ball!” Shefired. The bats went from atop the cave. “Let it be!” Alicia approached. She threw a flurry of crosses.They cut up the swarm. Torah felt her power. “Homing ball!” They squeaked. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia was the eye of the storm. Her axes removed the bats. Torah exhaled. “Thank God.” She drew sweat of her forehead. They couldn’t rest. This was war. They got around the pool. “Blame it on the weather man.” The breeze kept playing with the climate. “Then it begins.” Alicia made the sign of the cross. “I know.” Torah would hunt the night. “Watch out!” The skeleton hid among the rubble. “Stronger we are!” Alicia proclaimed. “In the name of the Lord!”He stopped to throw bones. “Get down!” They got to fight. “Homing ball!” Torah charged the spell. “Be gone you freak.” The bones obscured herfocus. “Release me!” The man would choke her. She felt so cold. This wasn’t fair. “Leave her alone.” Alicia would help her to escape. “Leave me alone.” Torah snarled. She could save herself. Torah had inherited the ring smash. Heleft her behind. The skeleton raised a hand. He blocked the attack. “You won’t escape!” Torahwas furious.

This was getting out of hand. Alicia got behind. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” The gold knife broke the curse. Alicia exhaled. “Let it be.” That was close. “He was mine.” Torah sent her an angry look. “Pease.” Alicia spread her arms. “I don’t want to fight you.” She sighed. “The Dark Lord is to blame.” Torah blushed. The girl looked away. “Excuse me.” She said. “Alright.” Alicia cleaned her glasses. “For stronger we are.” They should continue. “In the name of the Lord.” The mist grew tick about them. “I don’t like this.” Torah breathed. “The eternal night.” She looked about. “There is another bridge.” Torah told. “Not far away.” She inspected the gold compass. “Always on the move.” Alicia replaced the spectacles. “Deliver us from the Shadow.” She touched the crucifix. “Come with me.” Torah led the way. “I know what I do.” There was that sound again. “Oh my God!” Torah cried. The cross lit up. They went straight into another swarm of bats. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia made it to rain with holy water. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the mist spell. “Get lost!” She struck with the smash. “Are you alright?” Alicia was afraid. They might inflict the curse. Torah gave no answer. “Homing ball!” She hit the bat. The magic spell exploded on impact. “Stronger we are!” She was the eye of the storm. “In the name of the Lord!” The beam struck. The flurry of crosses whirled about. “Blood of the hunter!” Torah exclaimed. “Homing ball!” The bats got torn to pieces. Alicia exhaled. The riverstill tumbled down the mountainside. “What is this?!” Torah got to shout. “It looks like an ancient elevator!” Alicia went closer. “Though the mechanism is rusted!” She stepped atop. “Let it be!” Alicia enforced the sword. The blood force shook the elevator. That put the gears in motion. “Now this is the way!” Torah cried. The elevator was going up. Alicia exhaled. They reached atop. “Let us hunt.” This was solid ground. “Consider me gone.” She shook her head. Torah stood on the bridge. “Homing ball!” The bat got in their way. Torah cast the steam blast. “Stay there!” Alicia told. The plant-life grew among the logs. Alicia got the stopwatch. “Come on!” She beckoned. Alicia removed the shrubbery. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. “Watch out!” Alicia cried. The fall might be fatal. She caught her in time. “Alright.” Torah looked down the waterfall. “Look out!” There were other bats. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the mist. “Then so let it be.” Alicia made the sign of the cross. “Come on!” Torah ran. They reached the second bridge. She pulled at the glasses. Alicia gripped the sword. These logs were even more unstable. “Good Lord in Heaven!” She got to use the stopwatch. The corpse-weed blossomed. “Preserve us from the wicked One!” They grew in Hell. She removed the evil plant. “Sanctuary..” Aliciasighed. The flower withered while she watched. “Come on!” Torah cried. The rolling stone broke into pieces. “Preserve us from evil!” Alicia threw the girl forward. Shereached solid ground.“In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia couldn’t wait. The bridge collapsed. Alicia escaped. “Oh my God!” Torah exclaimed. “Beware of the Dark!” She turned. There were something behind. Something black. “Be gone.” The bundle stirred. Alicia felt like a dead hand touched her heart. She got lost in the night. The chill was horrible. “He cannot reach us.” Torah bit her lip. “He cannot pass.” The hood beheld them. “I know.” Alicia hid her face. The figureslid among the shadows. “Preserve us from the wicked One.” The waterfall rumbled. “Watch out!” The rolling stone hit the floor. “They are the undead!” The skeleton escaped from among the rubble. “So let it be.” Alicia hit him with the dagger. The bone-man collapsed. “Homing ball!” Torah dashed. She made the spell to fly forward. The statues fell down. “Leave us alone!” The steam crushed the skeletons. That was clever. The bats squeaked their blood thirst. Alicia made it to rain with holy water. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. She got ahead. “Die you Belmont scum!” The harpies gathered about. “Yeah!” She cast the spell. “Relax my dear.” The leader prepared her bow-and-arrows. “No way!” Alicia felt torn. “Take her!” They picked the girl. “Leave her alone!” The redhead blew a kiss. “Watch me.” She giggled. “Have you ever seen someone so beautiful?” Alicia got confused. “You are a nice specimen.” The harpysmirked. “That is not in the cards.” She would fight. “That won’t be necessary.” They would toy with their emotions. “I know what you desire.” Alicia made a glide. She got beneath. “Let it be!” She got up to throw a vial. “Mortal slime!” The holy water burned like acid. That confused their tactics. Alicia presented the crucifix. “Do you really think He will protect you?!” The harpy exposed her body. “Release her.” Alicia tightened her grip.“Never!” The harpy screamed. “Squeal for me!” She fired the bow. “Good Lord in Heaven!” Alicia made a back-flip. She barely escaped the impact. “Witchcraft!” Alicia licked her lips. The arrow exploded. Alicia threw the axe into the air. The harpy shrieked. She got hurt. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. “In the name of the Lord!” That might be a mistake. “You should beware of what you wish.” The harpies dropped her friend. “For that might be granted.” The leader carried a necklace.“Behold!” The item ignited. “Dracula’s magic!” The leader was restored.“Homing ball!” Torah was alive! She cast the spell. “Not you!” The frost caught her in flight. “Curse you!” She broke the ice. “Get down!” The leader fired. The sister performed with the flying kick. Alicia and Torah fought back-to-back. The evil bunch got hit by the crosses. “Pierce her!” The redhead demanded.“Kill her now!” Alicia got stabbed by the feathers. That hurt. “Die!” The blonde pulled a knife. “You Belmont scum!” The brunette got the lance. “Homing ball!” They got in trouble. “In the name of Michael the arch angel!” Alicia cried.”Stupid woman!” The harpies laughed by her efforts. “Let us have fun!” They prepared before the kill.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The shop was dark. Lucy felt like going blind. “Beware of the Shadow.” This was the way. She knew they would come. They were her friends. “Alright everyone.” Sigmund announced. “Let us get to work.” Heinz turned on the light. “Hand of Fate!” His palm was their lamp. They went to retrieve the food stocks. “Lightning paw!” Penny got her own light. “Save us!” Lucy ran to check on her condition. “Good God!” Her friend bentdown behind the counter. “He must have been here for ages.” Penny licked her lips. The salesman was rotten. “I guess.” The moth and maggots crawled about his flesh. “Do not touch the dead.” Luci swallowed. “Come out. Come out.” They exchanged glances. “Come out and play.” This was madness. “In my empty garden.” Penny shook her. “That isn’t funny.” Shewent for the workshop. Deborah told the truth.” The Machine shop stanched of wasted gasoline. “This is a bad place.” The lorry almost blocked the grease pit. “Bless me.” She got the picture. “This is twisted.” The bodies dangled from the tool hooks. “Hey there.” The girl was not a ghost. “I amTenise.” She approached. “Then let us be friends.” The knife suddenly appeared. “Forever and ever.” Lucy touched the floor. “Rosetta stones!” Penny knelt in front. The impact shook the place.

The tunnel, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The harpies circled about. Torah inhaled. “Homing ball!” She cried. They spread their wings. That was close. “Stronger we are!” Alicia presented the crucifix. “In the name of the Lord!” The spell went home. The harpy got shot from the sky. “Impressive.” The blonde was dead. “Much impressive.” The brunette fired with the bow-and-arrows. Torah charged her magic. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” The beam struck from Heaven. “Curse you!” Alicia made the crosses to twirl about. “Thanks.” They got an edge. “You Belmont scum!” The harpy burned. That left only four of them. “Rest in peace.” She released the fire. “Dracul!” The leader delivered a slide-kick. “Die you whore!” The sister tried to impale her. “Homing ball!” Torah had to act. The sisters kept shooting arrows at her. “You human trash!” The leader got hit. Alicia knew how to fight. “Homing ball!” Torah pierced the ravenlock. She left no treasure. Torah got beneath the feathers. “Yes!” The redhead cried. “Come on!” Alicia staggered. “That isn’t fair!” Torah threw the ring like a boomerang. “You little slut!” The harpygot hurt. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. “Kill them!” The redhead shrieked. “Kill them now!” The orb collided. That was the end. The leader got shot to pieces.

The river kept on streaming through the tunnel. Alicia felt at a loss. “Then stronger we are.” She made the sign of the cross. “In the name of the Lord.” The cave was narrow. “Alright.” Alicia bit her lip. The water reached her boots. That was not important. She cut the net. “Beware of the dead!” Torah hung up the ring smash. “Homing ball!” She conjured the mist. The bonepillar turned to about breathe. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She cried. Alicia pulled at the glasses. “That is the way.” Torah froze both the flame and the fireballs. “Stay there!” Alicia would hunt the night. “Be my guest.” Torah shrugged. “So let it be!” Alicia leapt to throw the axes. “Stronger we are!” She proclaimed. “In the name of the Lord!” The top and the middle skull got crushed to pieces. “Rest in peace.” That gave a breather. Alicia got the crucifix. “Homing ball!” Torah splashedabout. The water reached her hips. “Fine.” She exhaled. “Then follow me.” Torah got ahead. “Be gone!” She burned the spiders. The bone pillar rested atop the cropping. The skull turned to spit fireballs. “So let it be!” Alicia forged the pyre sword. She blocked the onslaught. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. That was the end. Torah sighed. “Come on!” Alicia splashed in front. “We have to continue. Torah gave no answer. Her hand kept shining. Alicia turned. The skeleton hid behind the web. The girl got busy with the monsters. The bone-bag got a choke hold. Alicia threw the dagger. “Thank you.” Torah inhaled. “Behind you!” Alicia dodged the spikes. “Save us from evil!” The claw grabbed her around the neck. “Black witchcraft!” Alicia gasped. She had to shake it. “Zombie dance.” Torah hid her mouth. “Oh my God!” She soon got serious. “Homing ball!” The gargoyle leaped to breathe flame. “They might inflict a stoned state!” Alicia shuddered. Was this how the brothers felt like in 1057? Who could tell? “Let it be!” They got to fight. “Save us!” Alicia got in trouble. There were some other stalagmites up there. “Oh my God!” They grew from within the ceiling. Torah was short enough. “Homing ball!” She got beneath. The spell went home. “Behind you!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. “Stronger we are!” There were another gargoyle. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia had to consolidate her force. The bracelet of alchemy might also enchant her abilities. “Let it be!” She got other problems. The claw returned to grab her. Alicia struck. “Rest in peace!” The limb got burned to ashes. “Alright.” The gargoyle was breathing flame. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia threw the vial. The monster got bathed in flame. She made the sign of the cross. “Watch out!” Torah cried. “Homing ball!” The gargoyle landed in front. “Yes.” Alicia bent. The monster was breathing flame. Alicia struck to repelled the onslaught. “Evil demon!” Torah yelled. She threw the smash. The gargoyle got cut to pieces. “Get away from there!” The acid hit the surface. “Homing ball!” That was the peeping eye. “You must be careful!” The eyeball swooped. “Come on you devil.” Alicia would hunt the night. “Dracula’s curse!” The frog leached with the tongue. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She cut the foe. That gave no comfort. Alicia threw the daggers. “Homing ball!” Torah hit the eye. “Oh no!” The eyeball survived the onslaught. Alicia touched the crucifix. She threw the axe. “Save us!” The foe escaped. “Stronger we are!” The other axes went home. “In the name of the Lord!” “Nice!” Torah spun. She covered with a combo. The skeleton got knocked to pieces. “Right.” Alicia presented the crucifix. This was not the end. “Homing ball!” Torah cast a smoke spell. She blocked the gargoyle. The monster was breathing flame. “Save us from evil!”Alicia cried. She got the stopwatch. They got a breather. Alicia hit the candles. The gems restored her. “Thank the Lord.” She let be the money. The gold shone on the river bed. “Black witchcraft!” The gargoyle was alive. “Homing ball!” The cross was shining. The steam spell went home. The monster exploded on impact. “That was nice.” Alicia cleaned her glasses. “Watch out!” The other gargoyle spewed heavy flame. “Homing ball!” Torah bent behind the cross. “Beware of this magic!” She cried. “The gargoyle might turn us to stone!” Alicia got a hunch. She removed the braid. Alicia had to focus. The dankness might be a problem. “Very well.” That was rubbish. Alicia shuddered. The skeleton broke through the wall. “Rest in peace!” She made it to rain with holy water. The bone-bag collapsed. “Look out!” Torah spun around. “They are coming!” The monster tried to air-bomb her location. Alicia threw the axe forward. The gargoyle settled in front. Alicia got behind. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” The rock monster might tear her to shreds. Alicia forged the Rahab sword. “Then so let it be!” Alicia removed the head. “Glory be You!” The figureburst apart. “Our Father in Heaven!” She made the sign of the cross. Alicia took the gems. They restored the force. “Let it be.” Alicia had become a vampire killer. “Blood of the hunter.” She would honour her legacy. Hawken was the true founder of the house of Belmont. He challenged the Dark Lord in 696. “Out of time.” So much came to pass. “Homing ball!” Torah broke her reverie. “Good Lord!” The girl got in trouble. The water clashed against her hips. The eyeball kept dropping acid. Alicia gripped the sword. The frogs hid in the shrubbery. She shuddered. “Leave me alone!” They leached with their long slippery tongues to might lick her. The freaks were unnatural. Alicia fought not to vomit. “Dracula’s curse!” The frogs might inflict a poisoned state. “Right.” Alicia touched the belt. “Save us from evil.” She would douse them with holy water. That might be difficult. The freaks had vanished. Alicia bit her lip. They hid among the moss. The plantlife grew upon the wall. “Curse of Darkness.” That was the perfect camouflage. Alicia looked about. The light got reflected by the water. She could be brave like Simon. There came the clashes of waves. Alicia presented the crucifix. There was time to hunt.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The scream pierced the air. Heinz had dropped the chocolates.He knew that voice. “Penny.” He didn’t have to be clairvoyant. The girl got in trouble. “Sigmund.” The boy got cut short. There was an echo from the outside. The brothers exchanged glances. “Go and save her!” They got to break the company. “Be careful.” Heinz possessed the power of gold. “Testament!” His hope was strong. That was the genesis of the force. He touched the cross. Heinz carried the crest around his wrist.“Hello there.” The girl stood before the grease pit.“Let us play.” She reached a hand. “To fair the undead.” His friendshid behind the wreck. The lorry was a Mazda Volga. Heinz got fascinated about the cars. He was only 7years old.Though this was no problem. “Good God!” The case was not important right about now. “Bubble boom!” He hit the teen between her breasts. “Fuck you!” She created a bat insignia. “Tear the neck! To bathe in his blood!” The shadow bats swept forward. “I submit my spirit!” The gold cross would protect his heart. “That is the truth.” She approached. “Lightning paw!” Penny brought the light. “You have the power.” The girl got the burning eyes. “Wind mane!” She was a vampire. Heinz got afraid. “This is the cursed earth.” He breathed.

The tunnel, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The monster was alive. Torah got confused. The eyeball kept on weeping the acid teardrops. Shelicked her lips. Torah hid behind the cross. She got to end the battle. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the triple shot. The peeping eye exploded on impact. She retrieved the crystals. The monsters left plenty behind. Torah splashed to keep up. “Homing ball!” She got to hurry. Alicia still got tangled with the frogs. “Stronger we are!” The hunter threw the four clocks. “In the name of the Lord!” That gave the edge. Alicia doused the amphibians with holy water. That left her in charge. “The legend of Belmont.” Torah had to hidea smile behind her hand. “Auch time.” She got to fight. The gargoyle escaped to breathe heavy flames. “Homing ball!” No one should have to live in fear. The monster hurled a trio of fist-sizedstones into the air. Torah stumbled into the river. “Good Lord in Heaven!” Alicia bent. She couldn’t help her. The hunter threw the daggers forward. The bone pillar got knocked to pieces. “Homing ball!” She charged the spell. Torah got up to fight. The gold hit the frogs. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia splashed ahead. “In the name of the Lord!” The tunnel got haunted by the monsters. “Evil thrives in the shadow of the castle.” Torah took the gems. They might get in handy.

The gargoyle was still alive. Alicia knew she got in trouble. “Save us from the wicked One!” She made the sign of the cross. “Then so let it be!” The monster might inflict a stoned state. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” The skulls survived. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. She might block the onslaught. “Oh no!” They found another depot. “Preserve us from evil!” They hid inside the wall. “Dead men walking.” The skeletons came to kill her. “Let it be.” She went forth to the war. “Then dance and have fun!” Where did she get that? “Bless me.” The family had a certain lack of humour. “I shall hunt the night.” She had to remember.Carmen Belmont, who fought against Death in 912, almost perished because of the hate. “Remember.” She sighed. “laughter and tears.” Alicia put the Apocalypse charter into a draw. This was no place for philosophy. The gargoyle spewed other stones. Alicia made a back-flip. She splashed into the water. “I have you now.” Torah announced. “Homing ball!” She fired. The skull got shot to pieces. “Look out!” The head turned to spit a rapid series of fireballs. Torah threw herself into the river. “Stronger we are!” Alicia made it to rain with holy water. “In the name of the Lord!” That gave a breather. “Watch out!” Torah returned from the river. “Homing ball!” The gargoyle broke on impact. “I made a promise.” Torah brushed her hair. She looked like someone had tried to drench her. “To the children.” Torah threw the smash. “No one should have to live in fear of the night.” Alicia was unsure if that could be possible. “That rests with the Lord.” Torah bent to retrieve her item. She saved her life. “Get away!” Torah cried. “Homing ball!” The bone pillar turned around to fire. “Good Lord in Heaven!” The gargoyle threw the rocks. That was enough. Alicia got hurt. She washurledinto the web. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” The spiders never came. Alicia used the laurels. The net got turned to stone. “Homing ball!” The triple shot exploded on impact. “Good God!” The gargoyle got shot to pieces. Alicia left the net. “Let it be.” She consolidated the force. Alicia leapt. She almost impaled herself upon the stalactites. “Alright.” She had to relax. “Wait for me!” Torah caught up. “Homing ball!” She cast the steam blast. That was close. Torah impaled the eyeball. “Come on.” The push was getting stronger. Alicia led the hunt. She hit the candle. “Stronger we are!” The rosary cleaned the cave. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. They shared the gems. She got to continue. Torah spoke. The sound of water drowned her voice. The pull grew even stronger. “Good Lord in Heaven!” The four skulls turned to breathe heavy flames or fireballs. Alicia felt the storm. “Help me!” She got in trouble. The gargoyle threw the stones. “Rest in peace!” Alicia impaled the skull. The dragon turned. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia released the flame blast. The empty sockets seemed to glare. The skull exploded. “Watch out!” Torah caught up. “They are coming!” Torah hid behind the cross. “Alright!” The image burned in the cave. “The Lord shall be with you.” Alicia had no doubt about it. “I have to keep my promise.” Torah was getting stronger. “That rests with the Lord.” They had to hunt the night. “Come.” She splashed ahead. Alicia reached for the crucifix. She felt at a loss. The tunnel went quiet. “I have a bad feeling about this.” Her hair stood on end. The gargoyle was alive. “Let it be!” The beam struck the river. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia was a Belmont. The crosses whirled about. The gargoyle got cut to pieces. Alicia splashed to fetch the gems. The moss grew upon the wall. Alicia fought to continue. “This can’t be right.” Torah mused. “I guess.” The shrubbery got turned to stone. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the mist. “Get lost!” She hid behind the cross. That blocked the attack. “Glory be You!” Alicia would be a hunter. “Our Father in Heaven!” She forged the fairy sword. Alicia twirled to crush the skeleton. “Look out!” The claw went squeezingon her heart. Alicia got to shake it. “Homing ball!” Torah pierced the skull. That was not enough. The dragons turned to face her. “So let it be.” She shook the limb. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia touched the stopwatch. The time stop trapped it in place. Alicia staggered. “Good Lord in Heaven.” She felt so tired. The dead stole her gems. “Then the fire and brimstone shall be your lot.” She got the crucifix. Alicia rarely used such language. “Forgive me.” She would repent. The claw must be burned. She splashed to complete the conflict. Alicia threw the vial. The claw finally got put to rest. “Thank the Lord.” Alicia took the gems. She sighed. Alicia felt much better. “I am the wind.” She would hunt the night. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia got work to do. This was not a game. The crazy frogs leached with their slippery tongues. “Leave me alone!” She screamed. “You devils!” The holy water burned along the surface. They left her behind. Alicia felt no better. She got poisoned again. Alicia retrieved the laurels. “For I am your ally.” She sighed. Torah was there. “Help me.” Alicia gagged uponthe blood. She couldn’t breathe. “Blast the frogs.” Torah bit her lip. The laurels shone between her fingers. Alicia vomited. That was alright. This was a natural reaction. Alicia inhaled. She got to relax. “Watch out.” The stream pulled them against the skulls. “Homing ball!” The laurels had restored her. “Stronger we are!” Alicia threw the vial. “In the name of the Lord!” The pillar got defeated. Alicia touched the crucifix. She got no time. The gargoyle was breathing heavy flames. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the smoke. She tried to repel the onslaught. The gargoyle shrieked. “Save us!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. “Good God!” Torah threw herself into the river. The monster might inflict a stoned state. “Homing ball!” Torah popped up. She cast the spell. “Beware!” The gargoyle got shot to pieces. “Curse of Darkness!” The bat settled on her neck. Alicia stamped it out. “Right.” Torah sighed. “Look out!” The gargoyle was breathing flame.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The eyes were on fire. Penny shuddered. “Your hate has made you powerful.” She got afraid. “Save us.” Penny reached for the cross. She kept it tight around her neck. “Welcome sister.” Teniseexposed her fangs. “You don’t get it.” Penny spoke. “I can’t explain it.” She sighed. “There will always be a time for remorse.” Tenise snarled. “Gold rush!” Lucy gave a hand. “Angel rod!”Heinzknew about the legend of Dracula. “Wind mane!” Tenise cast the shadow. “Rosetta stones!” They got to counter. “The queen’s curse!” The light lit up in the darkness. “Cat eye beam!” The dark got torn to pieces. “Come to me.” Her voice tingled in her mind. “My arms are hungry for you.” She licked her fangs. “The eternal night.” Penny felt the cold. “I know what you want.” Tenise laughed. “Come. Let us rest together.” She purred like a cat. “Please.” She felt helpless. The voice was like that of a water glass played by a cunning hand. “Be gone.” Penny had to proclaim her faith. “I forsake the Devil.” That smile fit Judas in Hell. “I never turn to the dark side.” She got the crest of Light. Her soul was spoked for. “So be it.” The bolt of dark electricity threw her aside. “If you will not turn; you will be destroyed.” Tenise got draped in the shadow. “Help me.” Penny hurt. “Please.” She touched the cross.

The tunnel, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

Everything went quiet. Torah got afraid. The water dripped from the ceiling. “Look out!” They got in trouble. The gargoyle spewed the rocks. Torah hit the candles. “”Homing ball!” She picked the items. The orb went home. Torah blocked her ears. The gargoyle shrieked. “Right.” She bit together. The pull got stronger. The monster threw the rocks. Torah groaned. “Homing ball!” She cast a dual strike. That repelled the onslaught. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia had reached for the crucifix. “In the name of the Lord!” She got to remove the skeleton. The flame blast put him to rest. “Oh my God!” Torah splashed to keep up. “Homing ball!” The steam pierced the peeping eye. Torah exhaled. The net and shrubbery got turned to stone. This was unnatural. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia presented the crucifix. The bone pillar turned around to breathe flames. “Good God!” Torah hid behind the cross. The crestwas like a shield. “Watch out!” Alicia would fight. “I know!” Torah was not a child. She could protect herself. “Homing ball!” Torah charged the spell. The orb collided. “Preserve us.” Alicia made the sign of the cross. “That was clever.” Torah drew off the sweat. The dragon got shot to pieces. “Get down!” The pillar turned to spit fireballs.

That was the finale. Alicia gripped the sword. “Glory be You!” Torah crushed the dragon. “Our Father in Heaven!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. The gargoyle threw the stones. “Good Lord!” Alicia bent to escape. She presented the crucifix. The monster shrieked. “Stronger we are!” Alicia staggered. “In the name of the Lord!” The gargoyle threw the rocks. The push might pull her against the stalactites. “Homing ball!” Torah got to remove the head. That wasn’t enough. “Look out!” Alicia threw the daggers. The dragon turned to spit fireballs. She threw the axe.“Release her!” The skeleton might throttle her friend. “Homing ball!” Alicia got to help. “Let it be!” She touched the stopwatch. Then Alicia pierced the skull. “Thank you!” Torah crushed the bone-bag. “We have to help each other.” That was the truth. “Now what?” They reached a dead end. “We continue.” The waterfall got turned to stone. That was a problem. The water ran through the crack. “The path is narrow.” Torah bit her lip. “I know.” The push might be too strong for either of them. “Go on.” Alicia told. “Trust me.” Torah got afraid. “Consider me gone.” She bent to might push through the pot hole. “Believe.” She was so brave. “You shall see the miracles of God.” Alicia got to follow.

The caves, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The push was a problem. Alicia managed to slip through. “This must be a bypass to the river.” Torah looked about. “I guess.” Alicia gripped the sword. “Homing ball!” She cast the spell. Her hands were on fire. That was enough. They might continue. “This placemust be ancient.” The cave got created by the water. “For great is the Lord.” Alicia made the sign of the cross. “I got a bad feeling about this.” Torah breathed. The oil lamps lit up. “The creature of Chaos.” Alicia tightened her grip. “This is unnatural.” She stopped. “Wait for me!” Torah called. “Save us.” The spikes was a problem. Alicia got the crucifix. The stair led to the bottom. “There might be an alternative.” The girl had noticed. “No way.” Alicia cleared her voice. “There have to be another way.” The pillar might be a platform. The bats would be a danger. “Homing ball!” Torah gave her no heed. She leaped to reach the cave. “This is a bad idea.” The bats left the stalactites. “Watch out!” Alicia cried. “They might inflict a cursed state!” Alicia picked the vial. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” They shrieked for blood. She got to protect her ears. The glass broke on impact. The bats got bathed in holy water. Alicia inhaled. They left some money. “Let it be.” She had no use for gold. “Homing ball!” The girlhidbehind the cross. “Keep up!” Alicia told. “Homing ball!” She cast the smoke. “Out of time.” Torah charged the spell. That was incredible. “Cover me!” They couldn’t stay. “Right!” Torah produced the ring smash. “I am right behind you!” They would hunt.

“Homing ball!” The bats got shot to pieces. That was only the beginning. “Stronger we are!” Alicia knew she couldn’t keep them forever. “In the name of the Lord!” She lept to face them. She got above the spikes. Alicia beheld the tunnel. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. She made it to rain with holy water. The bats got burned. “Wait for me!” Torah leaped through the air. “Good God!” She landed on top. “Homing ball!” She aimed for the bats. “Stronger we are!” Alicia made a glide. “In the name of the Lord!” The bone pillar turned to spit fireballs. She managed to repel the onslaught. “Have a chill!” Torah bent down behind the cross. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia cried. The dragon was breathing flames. Alicia threw the axe. The tunnel was almost too narrow. She made it to split in three. The top head got knocked to pieces. “Saints in the Heaven!” Alicia screamed. She got bitten by a bat. “Save me from the wicked One!” Torah got busy. She threw the crush like a boomerang. The skull broke on impact. Alicia grabbed the monster. “Dracula’s curse of Darkness.” She staggered. “For I am a Belmont.” Alicia stamped him out. The bat got burned to ashes. “So let it be.” The laurels removed the curse. Alicia shuddered. She would not become like them. “Homing ball!” Torah pierced the skull. “Come with me!” The girl kept on down the passage. “Wait for me!” Alicia cried. “You have to be careful!” Torah came to a halt. “The cave is so huge.” She whispered. Torah then snapped into action. “Homing ball!” Her hands were on fire. “Let us fight.” Alicia touched her shoulder. “Alright.” Torah looked up into her face. “I am ready.” She reached for the cross. “Fine.” She sighed. “We hunt the night.” Alicia leaped into the air. There were a niche up there. “Rest in peace!” The bone pillar occupied that area. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia got atop. The dragon was breathing heavy flames. “Then stronger we are!” She threw the ice knives. “In the name of the Lord!” The pillar froze in place. “Homing ball!” Torah went into the pit. “You are not alone!” Alicia doused the pillar with holy water. “Let it be.” Alicia exhaled. There were nothing up here. She had a look about. Alicia frowned. This should be the spring. Alicia cleaned her glasses. She managed to keep them. The fairy’s magic was still in effect. That made no difference. The riverwas turned to stone. Alicia almost got stuck in the niche. “Where are you?” She got to find her friend. Alicia left the outlook. She landed on the floor. Aliciagripped the sword. She was ready. “Leave me alone!” Torah was alive. “Homing ball!” She pierced the bone pillar. “Good Lord in Heaven!” Alicia bit at the end of the pony-tail. “Wait for me!” Torah leaped into the pit. What was going on? “Alright.” Then she realized. There was another platform. The bone pillar turned around to spit fireballs. “Homing ball!” Torah hid behind the cross. She cast the smoke. “Get down!” The pillar was breathing flame. “Rest in peace!” Alicia threw the three daggers forward. The bone head got shot to pieces. They forgot about the bats. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. “Save us from the wicked One!” Alicia got beneath. “Oh my God!” Torah made a back-flip. She hit the wall.

St. Nikolai’s church, village of Doina. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The villagers gathered to prepare before the Holiday. Benjamin got no strength to aid them. He felt so helpless. The 12-year-old hid within the St. Mary’s shrine. He closed his grey eyes. The brown hair got messy with sweat. “God’s holy mother.” Benjamin told. “Please, help me. Pray for me.” The boy got visions of the future. “Hail Mary.” Benjamin beheld his friends. They forged a connection. He got confused. So much had happened. He saw the gas-station. Alfred’s courage burned like the sun. He led them to war. They possessed the crests of power. That was no mystery. Benjamin got bestowedwith the crest of miracles. “Sonnet of Dream.” He breathed. The others were inside the workshop. He shuddered. The girl was so strong. Lucy was pure like the earth. “She is evil.” He might translate the aura. “Whore of Lucifer.” She spread her wings. His friends got such potential. The Light shone in the Shadow. “Preserve us!” He tried to reach out to them. They couldn’t hear him. “Rest here for a while.” The priest touched his foreheadwith the holy water. “No evil might enter the house of God.” Father Nathan helped him to get up.“Have no fear.” The priest made the sign of the cross. “The Lord is with you.”Benjamin looked into his face. “I believe in you.” He told.

The caves, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The debris got spread about. Torah gasped. She felt like her lungs got torn from inside. “Homing ball!” She got to keep the light. Torah was right. The ring smash broke the bricks.That went like a knife through butter. “Then so let it be!” Alicia made a glide. That was nice. She kept the sword in front. “Oh my God!” Torah kept her arm up to might protect her face. The splinters got spread about. “Stay behind!” The vampire hunter slipped upon the step. “Watch out!” She got to live. “That was close.” The spiked rocks fell from the ceiling. “Homing ball!” The bats squeakedfor blood. They went like a swarm. She consumed the lot. That was not enough. “Stronger we are!” Alicia threw the cross. “In the name of the Lord!” The bats got burned to ashes. “Alright.” Torah got exhausted. They reached another dead end. “Believe.” Alicia touched her shoulder. “This is a trove.” That was right. “Tell me about it.” Torah exhaled. “Let us hit some candles.” Alicia smiled. She got into action. “Thrashard.” They found some money. Torah left it behind. She had no use for gold. Her purse was full. The gems replenished her energy.“That was nice.” Alicia looked much better. “Come on.” Torah hung up the smash. “Let us return to the cave.” She felt ready to hunt.

The cave was quiet. Alicia made the sign of the cross. She could still hear the river. “Right.” Alicia kept to the left. “This is the river!” She must be careful. “Tell me about it.” Torah leapt. She landed in a crouched position. “Beware of the spikes.” Alicia pulled at the braid. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. The bats got burned. Alicia cleaned the glasses. “..” Preserve us.” The water got turned to stone. Then what was that sound? “Curse of Darkness.” She sighed. Torah struck with both rings. “Watch out!” The stalactites fell from the ceiling. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia threw three axes forward. “Oh my God!” The stone man emerged from the rubble. Alicia went into the closer hand-to-hand combat. The figure picked her up. “Save us from evil!” He struck her against the floor. Alicia gasped. The air left her lungs. She gothurt. “Homing ball!” The magic went home. “Into the night.” Alicia used the laurels. The stone man broke down into two smaller copies of himself. “Stronger we are!” She hurled the cross. “In the name of the Lord!” This had to be a set-up. The doppelgangers broke in four. “Stop doing that!” Torah told. “This is the ancient sorcery!” Alicia made a back-flip. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the triple shot. The men broke to pieces. “Alright.” The bats left the ceiling. Torah Leaned against the wall. She deserved the breather. “Leave us!” Alicia made it to rain with holy water. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” The bats got burned to ashes. Torah hit the oil lamp. She took the gems. That was alright. “Glory be You!” They still got enough light. “Our Father in Heaven!” Alicia rubbed her eyes. She went to inspect the cave. “This is the stream.” Torah sighed. “This is another dead end.” That was the truth. Alicia touched the crucifix. “We got an alternative.” Alicia held the sword. “We must traverse the spikes.” Torah produced the ring smash. “Then show me the way.” Alicia tapped her shoulder. They soon reached the trap. “Be careful now.” Alicia warned. “This might be fatal.” Torah shrugged. “Trust me.” She said. “I can make it.” Alicia inhaled. The girl leapt into the air. “Homing ball!” Her hands were on fire. They lit in the darkness. Alicia bit her lip. “Into Your hands I commit my spirit.” Torah reached upon the platform. She struck with the smash. “Right.” Alicia arrived. “Do you hear that?” Torah tilted her head. “That is the waterfall.” Alicia licked her lips. “Follow me.” Torah got ahead. “Watch out!” The bats hid among the stalactites. “Once bitten!” The monster bit her neck. Torah gasped.“Dracula’s curse!” Alicia got to save her friend. “Leave me alone!” Torah stamped them out. “The Lord is with you.” Torah didn’t wait. “Look out!” The stalactites fell from the ceiling. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia threw the cross. “Then stronger we are!” She hit the bats. “In the name of the Lord!” That was not enough. Aliciareached for the belt. The holy water gave her the edge. The swarm got burned to ashes. This was not a respite. Torah hit the rock monster. The figure broke down into two smaller copies. “Release her!” The stone man picked the girl. He would smash her skull. Torah got struck against the wall. She left a trail of blood. “You devil!” Alicia made a glide.She held the sword like a lancet. Aliciapierced the rock monster. The figure broke in two. She expected he would. “Let it be!” She threw a storm of daggers. That was the end. “We are in trouble!” Torah healed herself. “Homing ball!” She charged the spell. The flare exploded on impact. That removed the rest. “Lord of compassion.” The lamps still burned. “He has forgiven all.” They revealed the pillar. Alicia would hunt. “Homing ball!” Torah cast her magic. The top skull turned to counter. “Get down!” Alicia forged the pyre sword. She blocked the fireballs. That was not enough. She threw the daggers. The bone pillar was breathing flame. “May it be cast into the pit!” Alicia had an idea. She got the stopwatch. Alicia was the eye of the storm. “Then so let it be!” She released the four clocks. The spiralling mechanic stopped them in place. “Homing ball!” The tripled steam blast consumed the monsters. That made the coins and gems to fall down. “Money.Money.Money!” The vampire hunters got left with the cash. “That might be funny.In a rich man’s world.” The dragon spatfireballs while breathing flames. Alicia threw a vial. The liquid hit the floor. Thatblocked the Hellfire. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia threw the axe. The top head exploded. “Homing ball!” Torah bent behind the cross. She broke the skull. “That was nice.” The sound of the river grew even closer.“Come on!” There were no return. “Preserve us from the wicked One!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. They would leave the cave together. “Follow me!” Alicia knew that the waterfall was ahead.

The waterfall, Ruvas forest. The 19 ^th Of December 2098 A.D.

The cave was monstrous. Alicia looked about. “Then so let it be.” She touched the crucifix. The spring got concealed by the distance. Alicia would hunt the night. “This is black magic.” Torah pointed. “Look up there.” The waterfall got frozen in places. “This must be the source.” They got to climb. “This will not be easy.” There were no other way. “We have to continue.” Torah got ahead. “Wait for me!” Alicia had to follow. There was a bridge beneath the curtain. She stopped. “Let us hunt together.” The girl went pale. “Oh my God!” The bridge collapsed. “Hurry!” Alicia consolidated the force. The logs vanished in the water. She barely got on top. “You made it!” Torah tugged the cross. She almost began to weep. “Alright.” Alicia told. “We have reached the other side.” Alicia couldn’t relax. They still got to climb the waterfall. “Let it be.” She got no choice. “I know.” Torah sighed. “Into the night.” Alicia got exhausted. They couldn’t rest. The waterfall kept roaring. “This is for the children.” Torah also got tired. “No one should have to live in fear of the night.” She gathered for combat. Alicia got on foot. The girl was right. “Then let us hunt.” Alicia touched the crucifix. “I am here.” Torah told. She picked the smash. Alicia removed the braid. “I know.” She gripped the sword.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The rusted school bus lay in front. Alfred fought to swallow. The occupants got shot to pieces. He got sick about the slaughter. “They aren’t amongthe true dead.” Reichardt reached a hand. The electricity cracked about his fingers. “Are you crazy?” Sigmund had returned. “Sorry.” His friend might translate the power. “He is alright.” Deborah had become invisible. “Right.” Alfred pulled on the goggles. “Explain it to us.” He got confused. “There are none who can.” He didn’t recognise this boy and girl. “My name is Scott.” The stranger told. “This is Daisy.” They leftfrom within the forest. “I don’t get it.” Alfred began to shudder. “Who are you?” The boys came even closer. “They are Max and Dash.” Scott informed. “They are brothers.” They could always trust on Simon. “Horn torpedo!” The spike harpoons exploded on impact. “You underestimate the Shadow.” The brothers morphed into a bat and a wolf. “Good Lord!” The sun was shining from a cloudless blue sky. This was the cursed earth. “Pepper breath!” Alfred figured they cast no reflection or shadow. That was impossible. They were the undead. “Blue blast!” Sigmund was the first to strike. “Howling blast!” That was a waste of energy. “Great claw!” He could freeze the lot. This was a trap. “Nova blast!” Alfred tried to keep up.

The waterfall, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The snow kept falling down the stream. Torah frowned. “Good God.” This was madness. There couldn’t be weather underground. “Evil thrives in the shadow of the demon castle.” Alicia picked with the crucifix. “I guess.” The cave was a trench. “We must be careful.” Alicia cleaned her glasses. She kept to the side. “I know.” They got to climb. “Let it begin.” She leapt for the platform. “Watch out!” Alicia called. The corpse-weed grew on the floor. “Save us from the evil One!” Alicia pulled the stopwatch. That saved her life. Torah scowled. She cut the plantlife. Alicia made it to rain with holy water. “Yeah!” Torah threw the crush. The corpse-weed got cut to pieces. The waterfall roared in the background. Torah inhaled. “Homing ball!” She threw the magic. Torah hit the skull head. They got to reach the platform. The corpse-weed reached with the leaflings. Alicia threw the gold knife. She cut the greenlife. “Homing ball!” Torah leapt to help her. She burned the evil plant. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia repelled the fireballs. “In the name of the Lord!” She knelt beneath the onslaught. Torah went upon the platform. “Homing ball!” She hid behind the cross. The spell exploded. “In the name of Michael the arch angel!” Alicia cried. She threw the daggers forward.

The bone head got crushed to pieces. Alicia exhaled. “Good Lord in Heaven.” That was close. She touched the crucifix. “Stronger we are!” Alicia threw the set. “In the name of the Lord!” She made the sign of the cross. The top head exploded. “Then so let it be!” Alicia exclaimed. The skull head kept breathing flame. Alicia made a glide. She held the sword like a lancet. She would impale the pillar. “Save us!” The blade got stuck. Alicia stamped them out. “Beginnings.” That was enough. She got a breather. “Wait a moment.” Torah hit the candle. She took the gem. The needle circled the platform. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Thatwasthe problem. “Let it be!” Alicia consolidated the force. “In the name of the Lord!” She leaped for the platform. “Homing ball!” Torah caught up. Her hands were still on fire. “This might be difficult.” She sighed. “I know.” The needle went about the platform. “Fine.” Alicia adjusted her jacket. The outfit got soaked. The article got plastered against her body. That revealed her bosom. Torah went ahead. “Look out!” The needle approached. Torah leapt. She reached the wall. “Stronger we are!” Alicia left the monster. “In the name of the Lord!” The corpse-weed had blossomed. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. “This is impossible!” The plant absorbed the magic. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” That was enough. Alicia bent to uproot the Corpse-weed. Her blade cut the plantlife. “Good Lord in Heaven!” The plant had withered. Torah leapt for the platform. “Look out!” Alicia tried to warn her. The skeleton was alive. He threw the bones forward. Torah screamed. “Leave her alone!” Alicia leapt. “Let it be!” She would challenge the dead. The axe crushed the monster. “Fine.” She sighed. Alicia hit the oil lamp. She picked the big gem. “Glory be You.” She exhaled. “Our Father in Heaven.” The jewel restored her energy. “Let us climb.” Torah got the smash. “Consider me gone.” Alicia pushed at the glasses. “Homing ball!” Torah got ready to fight. The bats squeaked for blood. The swarm leftfrom the stalactites. “Good Lord in Heaven!” Alicia exclaimed. “Homing ball!” Torah hid behind the cross. The bats went for her throat. “Watch out!” Alicia created the flame blast. The bats got burned to ashes. Torah got above. She struck with the smash. “Release her.” The waterfall roared. Torah gagged. “You devil.” The skeleton was about to choke her friend. Alicia felt so helpless. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia got to act. “In the name of the Lord!” She threw the axe forward. That was about time. Torah got blue in her face. The bone-bag got knocked to pieces. “Thank you.” Torah gasped. “You saved my life.” Alicia reached up. She tapped her on the shoulder. “That is alright.” Alicia cleared her voice. “Let us continue.” Torah got ready. “Homing ball!” She hit the lamp. “Leave it behind.” Alicia got no use for money. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She got on top. “Get lost!” Torah presented the cross. The bats swept like a stream. “Alright!” Alicia struck. “Save us!” The blade got stained with crimson. She got to defeat the swarm. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the mist. “Perfect!” The bats froze on impact. “Glory be You!” Alicia took the gems. “Our Father in Heaven!” Torah got ahead. “Homing ball!”She cried. The bats burned. Alicia made the sign of the cross. She went into battle. That was not the end. “Homing ball!” Torah leapt on the platform. She charged the spell. “Get down!” Alicia told. The girl cast the spell. Alicia exhaled. She threw the axe. The skeleton collapsed into a heap. “Get lost!” Torah got up. “Good Dog!” She hid behind the cross. The bats whirled about. “Alright!” Alicia picked a vial. “Into Your hands I commit my spirit!” This got to work. Alicia made it to rain with holy water. The bats got burned. She made the sign of the cross. Torah took the gems. The girl deserved the energy. “Homing ball!” Her hand were on fire. That gave enough light. “Let it be.” Alicia made a glide. She almost hit the wall. “Save us!” She exclaimed. The ice became a problem. Alicia nearly slid off the platform. “Not that way!” Torah grabbed her. “Okay. Okay.” Alicia removed the braid. “This is like the power-plant.” The girl looked up into her face. “This is not that bad.” They got to continue. “Keep down!” Torah cried. “You might hit the stalactites!” Alicia leapt. She curled together. “So let it be!” She got beneath. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia landed upon the platform. She looked about. The road was long. There were few niches up here. The waterfall roared. Alicia made the sign of the cross. “This is quite a price.” Torah came from within the depot. “That is a pentagram.” Alicia used them before. She forgot about the details. “Follow me.” She got stronger. The bracelet granted more power. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” The sword was a torch. Alicia landed upon the pillar. “Grounded.” The word escaped her lips. She got to stay put. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the steam blast. The bats squeaked for blood. “Save us from the wicked One!” Alicia hid her eyes. The bats got burned to ashes. “Let it be!” Torah got ahead. “Homing ball!” She created a spreadshot. The effort made her to stagger. “Keep the faith.” Alicia gave a hand. She helped her to get up. “Glory be You.” She sighed. “Our Father in Heaven.” Torah brushed her hair. They exchanged glances. “”Let us hunt.” The girl climbed upon her shoulders. Alicia leaped for the pillar. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia slipped upon the ice. “In the name of the Lord!” Torah thawed the frost. “Thank you.” The steam grew thick about. “Right.” The girl inhaled. “What now?” That was the question. There seemed to be no way up. Alicia cleaned her glasses. “Please let it be.” That was a ring. Alicia licked her lips. She got no whip. “You are a Belmont.” Torah whispered in her ear. “Have faith.” She got afraid. “I believe in you.” Alicia swallowed. The girl was her friend. She would not let her down. “Here goes nothing.” She exhaled. “Then let us hunt the night.” That was her slogan. “Right.” Alicia smiled. They got to use the metal ring to reach above.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

This was a nightmare before Christmas. Sigmund would protect his friends. “Howling blast!” He chased the dead. “Mortal fool.” Max snarled to expose the fangs. “Your blood is mine.” He cast the Death ripple. “Good Lord!” Sigmund created a blue shard. “I will not submit.” The frost bolt repelled the impact. “Die and be damned!” Dash might support his relation. “Take this!” He cast the steam. “I don’t think so!” Sigmund faced the brothers. “Come on!” The ice shard blocked the assault. “Static force!” Reichardt threw the disc. “Super shocker!” They fought together. “You human scum!” Max vanished from sight. “Let us be finished!” The rapid Ion burst on impact. Sigmund side-stepped the onslaught. That shook the forest. “Lightning blast!” The thunder ball hurt. “Alright!” Sigmund made a glide. “Rest in peace!” He stabbed for the heart. “Die you human dog!” Dash created an earth quake. “Be gone!” Sigmund kept up. “In the name of God!” Max released the Shadow. “You won’t touch him!” The boy gathered up. “Horn bomb!” That caused a crater. “Damn you!” Max left like mist. “You shall pay!” The brother created a whirlwind. “Into Your hands I commit my spirit!” They must be burned. “Howling blast!” Sigmund cried. He would break Dracula’s curse.

Waterfall, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The stream went tumbling down. Torah felt quite dizzy while twirling about. “Homing ball!” They had reached the top of the waterfall. She swallowed. That was the brink of the abyss. Torah kept her eyes shut. Even through the lids, she felt her power. Alicia was a Belmont. That gavethe strength to pull off this stunt. “Let it be!” She called. “In the name of the Lord!” The opening got frozen over. “Good God!” Torah had a look around. There were four pillars. The needle kept on circling the area. “This is for the children!” Torah knelt behind the cross. The dragon was breathing flame. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia cast a vial. The skeleton hid in the depot. He occupied that side of the cave. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. She got to defend herself. The blast went from between her fingertips. “Stronger we are!” Alicia left the platform. “In the name of the Lord!” The needle might inflict a poisoned state. She might use the laurels. “Stay there!” Torah got hurt. “Preserve us from the wicked One!” Alicia screamed. The sword was like a torch in the dark. “Homing ball!” Torah wasn’t afraid. She leapt for the platform. “Homing ball!” Torah froze the pillar. She replaced the pentagram. “Get away!” Alicia told. The bomb exploded. Thatwas enough. The ice burst to pieces.

Submerged city, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

There came a bright flash. Alicia felt the impact. The pentagram burst apart. She swallowed.“Let it be!” She made the sign of the cross. The rock got shot to pieces. Aliciamade a glide. The frostthen broke like a wind shield. Torah went flying through the opening. “Good Lord!” She hit the floor. That hurt. Alicia took the laurels. “Sorry.” Torah got up. She looked ragged. “That is alright.” Alicia told. She retrieved her glasses. “Fine.” Torah was such a nice girl. She felt rather protective about her. Alicia shook her head. She would have no children. “Then so let it be.” Alicia sighed. She better have a look about. “This is the submerged city.” Torah picked the ring smash. “I know.” Alicia stood beside her. The cave was humongous. “The lagoon.” The clashes of waves hit against the platform. The fishman leftthe water. “Watch out!” This was an ambush. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. That saved her life. “Oh my God!” The monster spewed a poison stream. “The creaturefrom theblack lagoon!” Alicia threw the daggers. That pierced the fishman. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She hit the oil lamp. Alicia got the gems. They might restore some of the lost energy. “Homing ball!” Torah cut up the monsters. Shethen went like a madman across the water. “Look out!” They leaped to take her. “Heart of fire!” Alicia made it to rain with holy water. She would support her friend. Torah twirled to execute the upper-cut. She tore them to Sushi. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia leaped to reach upon the rooftop. “In the name of the Lord!” She attacked the monsters. They fought back-to-back. The fishmen got cut to pieces. “Homing ball!” Torah confronted the peeping eye. The city was Greek. Alicia had no mind. She nevercared that much about the architecture. “Homing ball!” Torah charged her magic. They got surrounded by the fishmen. “Then save us from the wicked One!” The eyeball wept. The tears might melt the stone. Torah leaped. She threw the smash like a giant boomerang. She hit the eyeball. “Preserve us!” The bats went like a swarm. “Get behind!” Torah cried. She bent behind the cross. The image became a shield. “Right.” Alicia pushed up the glasses. “The eternal night.” She tugged at the braid. The bats squeaked for blood. Alicia shuddered. They carried the pestilence. She threw the axe. “Homing ball!” The gold ripped the monsters. Alicia bit her lip. They got to use the ring. “They are here!” Torah exclaimed. “Good Lord!” The predators leapt from the water. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia cried. They emitted a freezing mist. “Let it be!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. She would hunt. Alicia forged the pyre sword. She repelled the smoke. “Stronger we are!” Alicia made a glide. “In the name of the Lord!” She impaled the monster. “Right!” Torah threw herself forward. She gripped the ring. That was impressive. The girlgot abroad. “The crucifix held close.” Torah got taken by the band of skeletons. “Leave her alone!” Alicia cried. They got no right. This was the Harmoney of Despair. “Torah!” She beheaded the fishman. Alicia would fight. She got to continue. The fishman reached above the surface. “Preserve us from the evil One!” Alicia gasped. She got soaked. Alicia shuddered. The laurels saved her. “Blood of the hunter.” She threw the axe. The fishman got burned in the water. Alicia leapt. She gripped the ring. “Then so let it be!” Alicia swungfor the tower. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She got on top. “Forgive me.” Alicia knelt. “For I have sinned.” She would carry His strength, His sword. The peeping eye wept acid teardrops. “Then into Your hands I commit my spirit!” She held the vial. “So let it be!” Alicia crushed the glass. She performedwith the upper-cut. The eyeball got burned. “For great is the mystery of faith.” The laurels healed her hands. Alicia couldn’t rest. The bats swept for blood. Alicia threw the daggers. She hit the candles. That was alright. “Stronger we are!” She threw a flurry of crosses. “In the name of the Lord!” She stopped. Torah got strangled by the skeleton. She had buried the smash among his ribs. The cross was on fire. The dead manwould never release his grip. Alicia removed the head. The skeleton collapsed. That gave no breather. “Torah!” The other man kept the choke hold. Torah’s face was turning blue. She stamped with the cross. The skeleton got burned to ashes. “Watch out!” Alicia threw the axe. The bone pillar was breathing flame. “Homing ball!” Torah spread her arms. “So let it be!” Alicia climbed the staircase. She forged the pyre sword. “Rest in peace.” Alicia burned with righteous rage. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She became invulnerable and invincible for a space of time. The dragon got crushed to pieces. Alicia inhaled. She was herself. “Blood of the hunter.” Torah hid her face. “Vampire killer.” That may be. Though it made no difference. Alicia rubbed her eyes. “I am who I must be.” Alicia felt so tired. She embraced her friend. “I know.” They kept silent. “Come with me.” There were the sound of water. “Let us hunt.” Alicia withdrew to clean her glasses. “Alright.” Torah retrieved the ring smash. “I am ready.” She looked up into her face. “What do we do?” That was the question. “We climb the staircase.” They got to leave the place. Torah got ahead. “Good Lord in Heaven!” They couldn’t escape. The mere peopleleapt to spit poison streams. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia threw the vial. The glass broke on impact. The holy water went up in flames. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. She hid behind the cross. “Save us!” They got to burn the monsters. “Get lost you devils!” They got shot to pieces. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia cried. “In the name of the Lord!” She got lifted into the air. The enflamed cross appeared above. Alicia spread her arms. His image cleansed their evil. “Homing ball!” Torah aimed for the mammals. They hid against the ceiling. “Help me!” Alicia screamed. She got bitten. “Yeah!” Torah brandished with thesmash. They got on top.“Preserve us from the wicked One!” Alicia touched the crucifix. They had reached a garden.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The brothers screamed in unison. Reichardt got to block his ears. “Good Lord in Heaven!” The sonic howl might crush them. “You won’t dare!” Sigmund told. “The eye of the storm.” The boy got his own magic. “Now,letus do it my way!” Max got pierced through the heart. He collapsed. “Thank you.” The eyes fell out. “The Light!” He gasped. “The blessed Light!” Reichardt vomited. He couldn’t help it. The sight was so ugly. Though this was not in vain. The boy would rest in peace. “Blue blast!” The hunt continued. “You killed my brother!” Reichardt threw himself down. The spikes went above. He inhaled. Dash aimed for the heart. “Howling blast!” Sigmund forged another ice shard. “I don’t think so!” Dashcast the pearls. “Watch it!” Reichardt told.The bubbles boiled and steamed on impact. “This is black magic!” Sigmund looked pale. “Bless me!” Reichardt made the sign of the cross. “Lightning blast!” He might take them out. “Rise my friends!” Dash had appeared in front of the school bus. “Then open bolts, chains, bonds; there is a dead voice calling!” They exchanged glances. Dash sprinkled with his blood. The vampire was not a necromancer. He didn’t have to be. They awoke. “Save us.” The scores of dead beings rose from their graves in search of flesh.

Underground garden, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The shaft of pale moonlight shone down through the opening. Torah bent to touch the earth. “Then we must be close to the surface.” Alicia made the sign of the cross. “You look tired.” The ladies sat on the branches. “Come.” The others occupied the benches beneath the tree. “Rest here for a while.” Torah got angry. They got no right. “Get lost you devils!” She cried. The spider crawled on her shoulder. The Arachni might inflict a poisoned state. “Good God!” Torah stampedit out. “Homing ball!” She would not be the weak link. The orb ripped the net. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia made a glide. She almost fell into the water. “The feast of blood!” The harpies left their perches. “Fire at will!” The leader bellowed. “Homing ball!” Torah burned the green-life. “Stronger we are!” Alicia revealed the crucifix. “In the name of the Lord!” The feathers burned. Torah bent to might uproot the Corpse-weed. Thesmash cut the plant-life. “Die you human scum!” The harpy fired an arrow. “Good God!” Torah bent behind the cross. “Homing ball!” The harpies must be burned. “You little slut!” The blonde got the lance. “Homing ball!” They shouldn’t do that. Torah cast the steam blast. “Kiss my foot!” Torah staggered. “You little whore.” She got hit by the slide-kick.

The leaderflapped her wings. Alicia fought to not get pined on the stalactites. “Good Lord!” She threw three daggers forward. The harpy got above. Alicia sighed. “You Belmont slut!” The sister pulled one more arrow. “Die!” She might kill her. The burningarrow went home. The impact shook the cave. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia threw the axe. That saved her life. “I got you now!” The leader exposed her talons. Alicia got ripped. “Release me!” She cried. “Leave me alone!” The armour kept her from being tore apart. Either way, the harpy might break her bones. “Let it be!” Alicia stamped with the crucifix. “You filthy whore!” She shrieked. His image left burn marks upon her body. “You shall pay!” The harpymade several tiny tornadoes to twist about. “Preserve us!” Alicia got pushed aside. She doused her with holy water. “Let it be.” The harpy got bathed in flames. “Rest in peace.” Alicia felt sick about it. The blood got stained on the earth. Alicia made the sign of the cross. She threw three daggers. “Curse you!” The burning arrow exploded. “Do you like a tickle?” The talons ripped her skin. “Leave me alone!” Alicia moaned. “Yes.” The harpy gloated. “You enjoyed it.” She withdrew the nails. “Be my honeypot.” The leader touched her breasts. “We are the girls that want to have fun.” She wiggledwith her tongue.“It is the girl’s night.” That might be enough. Alicia was not impressed. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She reached for the stopwatch. “Out of time!” Alicia became the eye of the storm. “Let it be!” She got the four clocks. The harpy fell on the ground. The time stop might help her friend. “Die you human bastard!” The tornadoes twirled her around. Alicia swallowed. She got dizzy. Alicia threw the gold knife. The blade got buried in her shoulder. Alicia gave a weak smile. She then vomitedupon the earth. Alicia touched her forehead. She got sick. “Kiss my foot!” The kick put her on the ground. “Stronger we are!” Alicia got up. “In the name of the Lord!” She made a glide. “You Belmont scum!” Alicia got beneath the flames. “Tonight’s forecast; heavy feathers might obscure the highlander.” That hurt. “Let me kiss you.” The harpy teased. “Let me graph you.” Alicia shuddered. She hit her with the end of the sword. “Have a drink!” She poured the holy liquid right into her face. “For great is the Lord!” They could not resist. “Our Father in Heaven!” The holy water might cleanse the evil. “Curse you human bastard!” The talons got buried within her shoulders. The knee-kick sent her flying. “This is the end.” The harpy got furious. “I am finished with playing games.” Alicia reached for the crucifix. The leaderwould kill her. “Stronger we are!” Alicia impaled her. “In the name of the Lord!” She gagged. The harpy tried to breathe. She then burst into flame. Alicia took the gems. “Preserve us!” The arrow went between her legs. The slide-kick made her to stagger. “Right.” Alicia shook her head. She got to continue. “Homing ball!” Torah froze the girl on sight. “Look out!” Alicia cried. “You have to stay out of this! Torahhad killed the other harpies. The ravens closed the circle. The branches collided with the floor. “Good Lord in Heaven!” Treant was awake. “Watch out!” The pods split open to reveal the bodies. They got in trouble. “The wipers might inflict a poisoned state!” Torah pulled up to strike. “Save us from evil!” The zombiesraised from their graves in search of flesh. “Beware!” The raven flew at her face. He almost took an eye. Alicia threw the axe. She got to fight. The zombies came to take her. “Dinner is served.” Alicia arched an eyebrow. That really wasn’t funny. The Treant struck. “Good Lord!” The wipers pushed through the ground. They got influenced by the curse. “Then so let it be!” Alicia gripped the sword. “There are too many of them!” Torah screamed. The serpents wiggled around her torso. Her face turned red. The wipers might crush her ribs. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia made it to rain with holy water. “Thanks.” Torah fell on her knees. “That was too close.” They got no breather. “Then stronger we are!” The ravens might rip them apart. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia presented the crucifix. They shrieked with frustration. “Let it be.” Alicia threw the circle of axes. “Homing ball!” Treant flailed with the branches. “Good God!” Torah got the smash. She cut the monsters. “Get behind!” Alicia told. “Right!” Alicia threw the vial. The holy water obscured the trunk. Treant roared. The pods split open. They got ambushed by the zombies. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the triple shot. The tree got burned. “Let it be!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. The earth shook. “Watch out!” Torah cried. “The wiper swarms!” They pushed from beneath. That was the last they needed. Or perhaps not. The club knights spread out before the attack. “Preserve us from the wicked One!” They brandished with their whips and long knives. “Good God!” Treant got in action. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the smoke spell. “Get lost!” Alicia told. “Drop it!” Torah threw the smash. She tried to cut the tree. That wouldn’t work. The savage orc soldier lunched with the knife at the ready. “Freeze!” Alicia got the stopwatch. She made them to remain in place. Alicia cleaned her glasses. “Right.” She removed the head. He was dead before hitting the floor. She couldn’t rest. The zombies might rip her to pieces. The bodies belonged to the woodmen. Alicia felt her hair stand on end. They reached for her. “Let it be!” Alicia threw the circle of axes. She hit the candles. Alicia picked the crystals. That was nice. They might replenish her energy. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the tripled spell. The zombies got shot to pieces. “Look out!” The club knights were still alive. “Get away!” Torah got ambushed. “Homing ball!” The tree had trapped her in place. Alicia would help. The ravens might kill her. Alicia presented the crucifix. “Release me!” Torah cut the leaflings. “I demand you to set me free!” Torah kept on striking. “Homing ball!” The tree got burned. That was impressive. Alicia exhaled. She made the club knights to stop in place.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The station was a mess. Deborah felt pity about the children. “Meteor wing!” She had to fight. “Red fireball!” Deborah might crush the zombies. “Spiral twister!” The boy turned into mist. Deborah got to protect herself. “Storm wing!” She cried. “Nova blast!” She was not alone. “Giant claw!” Alfred returned. He ripped the onslaught. “I want your blood.” Daisy bit her. “You devil.” Deborah gasped. “Welcome to the eternal night.” The girl reached to graph her. “I am not a toy.” Deborah tried to push her away. “I know what you desire.” Daisy taunted. “You do?” Deborah closed her fingers. “For I wish to save you.” She inhaled. “Red fireball!” That made her to scream. “Spiral twister!” The whirlwind threw her aside. “You shall pay!” Daisy closed her fist. She gathered the Hellfire. . “Oh no.” Deborah breathed. That got to hurt. “Storm wing!” She repelled the blast. “Meteor wing!” Deborah crushed the ice. “Excellent.” The earthquake pushed her off balance. “Perfect.” Deborah screamed. The girl got soaked. That was the black water. She got dressed for the season.Never the less, Deborah shuddered. “Spiral twister!” Deborah got to clean herself. “Meteor wing!” She pushed at the shadow. “Great horn!” Deborah released the blast. “You cannot win.” They laughed by her effort.

Underground garden, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The orcs got stopped in place. Torah burned the tree. That gave an edge. Or perhaps not. “Watch out!” Alicia dashed in among the soldiers. “Release me!” Treant was not impressed. He caught her by the roots. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. The wipers left the ceiling. She picked together. “Get lost!” Torah picked the ring smash. “This is for the children!” Torah made a dual swing. “Leave me alone!” She followed with an uppercut. “Homing ball!” She presented the cross. The raven got burned to ashes. “Release me!” Torah cut the leaflings. The corpses fell like ripe fruit. Torah made a sweeping slash. “Homing ball!” Treant burned. “Oh my God.” The tree kept standing. He flailed with the branches. Torah got ambushed. “Homing ball!” She cast the steam blast. The trunk got boiled. The smoke obscured the view. Torah made a back-flip. “Die you human bitch!” The club knight had arrived. “Good God!” The orc twirled with the whip. “Drop it.” He struck with the club. That was a waist of energy. “Homing ball!” Torah shot him through the chest. He hit the ground. That was not important. The orc was dead. “Alright.” Torah touched the cross. The corpse got burned. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the triple shot. Treant roared. He got struck by the gold flash.

The green-life grew upon the walls and ceiling. Alicia licked her lips. That didn’t feel right. She let it drop. The club knights had gathered. “Kill the girl!” The chieftain demanded. “Destroy everything!” Alicia gripped her sword. She would hunt. Treant used the branches. The tree might kill them. “Preserve us from the wicked One!” Alicia touched the crucifix. “The evil thrive in the shadow of castle Dracula.” The band brandished with their weapons. “Shut up you slut!” Alicia made no comment about that. “For you are nothing then a whore!” The club knights carried the long knife. “Let it be.” Blade struck against blade. They clashed. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. The girl tried to knock the trunk. The spell collided. “Good Lord in Heaven!” That caused another explosion. Torah escaped the outburst. “Homing ball!” She turned around. Torah got to burn the undead. “Oh no!” She got captured. Treantbrought her up to eye level to inspect his price. “Alright girly.” The orcs had gathered. “This is the end.” Alicia threw the vials. “Let it be.” The glass broke to release the holy fire. The flame went the distance. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia challenged. She would hunt the night. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. The purple ball of plasma hit the face. The tree roared. He let her drop. Torah rolled. “Homing ball!” She got up to attack the wipers. Richter Belmont was right about her family. They were Belmont’s in everything then name. She removed the braid. “To fight the righteous battle!” Alicia encouraged. “Knock the tree!” She would hunt the orcs. “Right!” The Devil created these monsters in the mockery of God. Even the ancient came to despised their lot.Though they felt pity as well. “Then so let it be.” Alicia didn’t think she could forgive them. That had to wait. This was no time for philosophy. “Die you human whore!” The club knight stabbed at the heart. Alicia presented the crucifix. The orc hid his face. “Stronger we are!” Alicia was not a toy. “In the name of the Lord!” There were three of them left standing. “Good God!” Torah threw the smash against Treant. He exploded. The smoke obscured the cave. Alicia struck the orc. The others turned to run. She threw the cross. The knight was dead before hitting the floor. The last orc threw the knife. “Preserve us!” Alicia gasped. She got nailed. The laurels restored her. That was not the end. He came to kill her. “Homing ball!” Torah took the gems left by Treant. She clipped the orc. The body got burned. Alicia exhaled. She felt at a loss. “Let us continue.” They got to leave. “Homing ball!” Torah created the light. They left the garden behind. Alicia tightened her grip.

Submerged city, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The hunt began again. Alicia looked about. They reached the end of the tunnel. Alicia sighed. They returned to the city. Alicia made the sign of the cross. The river ran beneath the lookout. “We must be careful.” Torah picked with the ring smash. “Alright.” She released the crucifix. “Let it be.” Alicia turned upon the bracelet of alchemy. She got to consolidate the force. Desmond, Sue and Dolores put it to use in 1666. The siblings were grateful for Giovani’s gift. She put that aside. Alicia leapt from the viewpoint. She reached the balcony. “Watch out!” Torah cried. “Beware the phantom menace!” There came a rumble. “Good Lord in Heaven!” The wall collapsed. Alicia gathered. The poor soul got kept behind bars. This was black evil. She refused the acts. The skeleton hit her in the head. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. The girl crushed the bone-bag. “Thank you.” Alicia was grateful. “No bother.” Torah sighed. “Look for the needles.” That was right. The stinger went about the next platform. “Let it be.” They must get atop. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia got ahead. “Alright!” Then even the rocks began to crumble. “Preserve us from the wicked One!” Alicia got above. She challenged the bone-scimitar. Alicia bit her lip. “Let it be!” She got beneath the attack. The skeleton came from above. He hid within the wall. The Dagon statues spewed the water. She had no mind. Alicia gripped the sword. The bone-scimitar struck with the shield. “Right.” Alicia reached for the crucifix. “Let it be.” She got a bad feeling about this. “Homing ball!” She was not alone. Torah had arrived. She struck with the smash. The skeleton would fight. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia pierced the mail and robe. “Homing ball!” Torah leapt to remove the skull. The scimitar collapsed. “That was clever.” Alicia remarked. She stopped to clean the glasses. “That was nothing.” Torah shrugged. “I don’t think so.” Alicia replaced the spectacles. “Then let us leave this place.” She leapt for the platform. “Good Lord in Heaven!” That was a dangerous leap. She almost fell to her death. “Look out!” The corpse-weed had blossomed. “Homing ball!” Torah tried to prevent it. “Release me!” That was too late. Alicia got caught in an iron grip. The plant twisted to might break her neck. “Save me!” Alicia cried. The plant was poisonous. The thorns pierced her skin. She got lazy. The corpse-weed might feast upon her blood. Then it would take her soul. “Homing ball!” Torah cut at the roots. “Let it be.” Alicia hung from the evil plant. She got lifted into the air. The plant flourished by blood. This had to end. Alicia cradled the crucifix. “Stronger we are!” The cross exploded. “In the name of the Lord!” The plant burned and withered. “Help me!” Alicia got poisoned. “I am here.” Torah knelt beside her. “I do believe in you.” Alicia sighed. “This is going to be alright.” The girl began to search among her items. “They got to be here.” Torah muttered. She opened the purse. “The laurels.” The treasure were a part of her legacy. “The creature of Chaos.” The castle created the copy. “I know.” Torah picked with the cross. “Look out.” Alicia gagged on the poison. “Oh my God!” Torah raised a hand. “Homing ball!” The fire left her fingertips. “I forgot.” The bats squeaked for blood. “They carry the curse!” The bats hid against the ceiling. “We are in trouble.” Torah made a face. “Save us from evil.” Alicia got sick. The poison got in her bloodstream. “Homing ball!” Torah got to burn the lot.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The snow got whirled about. Simon got surrounded by the wave of water. The boy snarled. The liquid work like a shield. Max and Dash got put to rest. Scott knelt before the evil cross. “Marching fishes!” Simon checked his gold watch. The time was up. “Fish net!” He cried. Simon caught the boy in a killing box. “Forgive me.” The fishesthen consumed the body. “They cannot help you now.” Daisy was floating in the air. “Against the power of Dracula; there can be no victory.” He shuddered. Simon knew he didn’t belong to the Belmont clan. “For there is none who can.” Daisy gathered her strength. “There are some who resist!” Simonchallenged. “Horn torpedo!” He launched. The dark orb exploded right into her face. “You cannot defeat us.” She approached with swaggering hips. “Surrender to my embrace.” The girl moved her tongue. That was obscene.”Ihavebeen waiting for you.” He figured. “For blood is the life.” He would not submit. “Oxygen torpedo!” Simon would oppose herlot. “Marching fishes! Daisy must be put to rest. “Horn torpedo!” Simon might save her soul. “Great claw!” The others got busy with the dead. “Howling blast!” They fought together. “Leave them.” He thought of Lucy Westenra. “I release you from the spell.” Simon promised.

Submerged city, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The river ran far beneath the balcony. Torah felt at a loss. “This is unnatural.” She breathed. “Homing ball!” The corpse-weed might kill her. She shot at the roots. “Leave me alone!” Torah would burn down the mission. “Then so let it be.” Then again, she might be flexible. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia crushed the vial. The corpse-weed burned. “That was nice.” Torah got a breather. “Right.” Alicia bent. She got poisoned. “Cross a fear.” The laurels restored her. “Let us continue.” Alicia got on foot. She made the sign of the cross. Torah sighed. “Homing ball!” Her hand got on fire. Alicia left the tower. The lamps still burn. She hit the candles. “Wait!” Torah took the gems. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia got in trouble. The bone-scimitar struck with the shield. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. She had to conjure the steam blast. “Good God!” The bone pillar turned around to face her. That was another problem. She got to remove the canon. “Get lost!” Torah crossed the smash. She repelled the fire. “I will not surrender.” Torah would fight. She bent behind the cross. Torah inhaled. She blocked the onslaught. The pillar was spitting fireballs. She kept in place. The dragon got exhausted. “Try this.” Torah muttered. “Homing ball!” She released the mist.

The bone-scimitar got the upper hand. Alicia staggered. “Right!” That was the deep impact. She gasped. The shield knocked the air from her lungs. “Preserve us from the wicked One!” The bone-man went for the heart. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia got a bad feeling about this. “In the name of the Lord!” She revealed the crucifix. That gave a breather. Alicia went ahead. The scimitar slid behind the shield. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” This was bad. Alicia felt so cold. Both the shield and his army-coat got marked with the Basraq dragon. “Then so let it be!” She got Simon’s heart of fire. “Be gone!” Alicia forged the pyre sword. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She struck against the shield. “For this is the end!” The dagger got split in three. “Then haunt me no longer!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. The knives went home. The scimitar collapsed into a heap. Alicia leaned against the pillar. She got exhausted. Alicia couldn’t rest. She sighed. Alicia got work to do. “Homing ball!” Torahcast the mist. The fireball shattered against the floor. The girl got burned. “Torah!” That was too much. Alicia threw the cross. “I am here!” Torah hid behind His image. “Homing ball!” She crushed the skull. “Stay behind!” The boomerang hit the bone pillar. Torah got beneath. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia had to make the glide. She stamped the pillar. The skull exploded. The fragments got spread about. “Get away!” Torah got up. “Homing ball!” She countered the fireballs. “This I do because of the children!” The girl then threw herself forward. “Together we stand!” Alicia cried. “Together we fall!” She would fight. “Homing ball!” Torah knew what to do. She cast the mist. “That is the way!” Torah struck with the smash. The bone head exploded. Alicia pushed up the glasses. “Stronger we are!” She gathered strength. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia threw the vial. The canon got shot to pieces. Alicia exhaled. The Dagon statues kept spewing more water. “We have to continue.” This was not the dark ocean world. Alicia licked her lips. “Believe.” She told. “We shall see the miracles of the Lord.” Torah got the cross. They held hands. “Alright.” Alicia released her. “Come with me!” She leapt into the air. “Nothing to lose!” Alicia looked for her friend. “Homing ball!” Torah lit her palm. “Watch out!” She shuddered. The fingers closed about her neck. “Release me!” The skeleton had no mind. “You devil!” The hold grew even tighter. “Preserve us!” The hand then touched the beads around her neck. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” The rosary went ablaze. She got lifted into the air. “Stronger we are!” His enflamed image appeared above her head. “In the name of the Lord!” She cleansed the area. “Nice work.” Torah hid her smile. “Right.” Alicia tugged her braid. “We should leave the city.” The girl acknowledged. “Homing ball!” Her hand was on fire. That was nice. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Her lamp kept burning. “Come on.” She soon got to refill the oil. That had to wait. The stairway was still ahead. “Preserve us!” The bone dragon might impede their progress. “Good Lord!” Alicia picked the crucifix.

“Homing ball!” Torah leapt. She cast the triple shot. “Beware!” Alicia cried. She would hunt. There was a crack. “Save us from evil!” Alicia found another depot. “Then stronger we are!” The skeletons hid inside. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia made it to rain with holy water. She would put them to rest. “Homing ball!” That was too slow. Torah got in danger. “Oh no!” She hit the white dragon. “Save us!” Alicia revealed the crucifix. She got to occupy the dead. The bats came from atop the tower. The evil swarm squeaked for blood. “Then so let it be!” That was another source of trouble. Alicia threw the gold knife. She used the stopwatch. “Good God!” Torah exclaimed. The knife went home. The skeletons lay hands upon her body. Alicia shuddered. The bats went about. She got to do something about that. “Out of time!” Theclocks might grind them to dust. The charge gave herthe upper hand. “Glory be You!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. “Our Father in Heaven.” Torah sidestepped the fireballs. She presented the cross. Alicia got hit. She staggered. The bone-bags approached. “Save us.” The men would kill her. The bats settled upon her collard. “Oh No!” Torah got burned. “No!” That was not the case. Torah put up the ring smash. That saved her life. “Homing ball!” Carrie Fernandez was a great vampire hunter. “Then so let it be!” Alicia would hunt the night. She got lifted into the air. The frozen cross cleansed the area. The bats got burned to ashes. That was not important. She got hit by the skeletons. Alicia screamed. She fell to her knees. They came to break her. “Homing ball!” Torah tried to freeze the skeledragon. “Good God!” The frozen smoke evaporated. Alicia couldn’t get up. The sword lay useless upon the floor. The skeletons closed about. “You won’t get her!” Torah threw the smash like a boomerang. That broke the torso. The razor got stuck in the spine. Alicia retrieved it. The fiend collapsed. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She used the laurels. “You get away from there!” The dragon hit against the staircase. Alicia threw the three enflamedcrosses. “Homing ball!” Alicia retrieved the boomerang. the smoke went home.”Good God!” Torah quenched the fire. She stamped the monster. The white dragon went from left to right. “Watch out!” Alicia cried. The flames scorched the area. Torah hid behind the cross. “Homing ball!” She cast the spell. The white dragon raisedup to spit fireballs. Alicia escaped. She got captured. “Release me!” The skeleton closesabout her neck. Alicia made a grimace. The bone bag tried to choke her. “You devil!” Alicia spat. She had to thwart the attempt. The skeleton had tightened his grip. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” The fiend got company. The bats had survived. The swarm came for her blood. Alicia made it to rain with holy water. The beast got burned. That was not enough. The man might twist her neck. Alicia groaned. She got to breathe.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The shadow lay heavy upon the work shop. Luci looked out from behind the old automobile. She felt so helpless. “Double star!” Teniseforcedan explosion. “There is nothing then anger.” Penny continued to scream. “Anger and hate.” The electricity surgedher body. “Gold rush!” The drilling rockets forced the vampire to releaseher knife. “Yourresistanceshall fall.” Tenise intensified the attack. “As will your friends.” Heinz shook his head. “Wind mane!”The boy threw himself forward. “Excalibur!” The sword appeared in his hand. “Curse you!” Tenisecried. “Antidote!” Lucy bit her lip. He restored her life. “Needle spray!” Lucy cheered. She could strike again. “Quick punch!” Tenise stumbled. “Take this!” Lucy got burned. “Ninja magic!” She created multiple copies of herself. The black electricity tore them apart. “Gate of Fate!” Heinz spread his hands. “Cursed be the children!” The pull forced her behind. “I shall feast upon your blood!” Tenise hissed. “Poison ivy!” She didn’t vanish into space. “Quick punch!” Lucy struck her in the face. Her strawberry blonde hair got whirled about. “Then let us be finished!” The dark force explosion threw her off balance. “Cat eye beam!” Penny was alive. She presented the crucifix. “Rest in peace.” She might reveal the Light.

Submerged city, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The Dagon statues continued to spew more water. Torah charged her magic. “Homing ball!” Her purple plasma got the homing propensity. “Do not forsake me.” She revealed the cross. The golden globe resisted the fire. “Good God!” The white dragon collided with the balcony. Torah staggered. The staircase shook beneath her feet. “Homing ball!” She made a back-flip. The skeledragon was breathing flame. Torah got the smash in front. She got pushed behind. “Release me!” Alicia screamed. “Homing ball!” Torah hit the bats. That wasn’t the problem. Alicia might be dead. The skeletons were about to choke her. “No!” Torah wouldn’t allow it. “Homing ball!” The impact sent them flying. “Thank you.” Alicia gasped. She could fight. “Behind you!” The bone dragon raised into the air to spit fireballs. Torah hid behind the cross. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia had retained her voice. She threw the axe. The weapon went home. The axe got buried in the skull. “Homing ball!” Torah castthe spell. The skeledragon breathed flames to counter. “Stronger we are!” Alicia used the stopwatch. “In the name of the Lord!” Torah charged. “Homing ball!” The dragon got shot to pieces. Torah might breathe again. “Let us continue.” They still got to climb the tower.

The tower, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The road continued. Alicia unsheathed the sword. The ground floor didn’t look that much. “Let it be.” She got a nasty feeling. “Preserve us from evil.” Alicia reached for the crucifix. She had refilled the oil lamp. That might lit the area. “Homing ball!” Torah beheld the statues. Dagon spewed the water. “Leave them behind.” Alicia remarked. This was not a respite. “Right.” Torah sighed. She came to climb the staircase. “There is something about this place.” She shook her head. “Into the night.” Alicia touched her shoulder. “The Lord will be with us.” Torah smiled. That didn’t reach her eyes. “Homing ball!” She continued to charge the spell. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia threw the vial. The liquid went up in flame. The bats squeaked in dismay. They got burned to ashes. “They arealive!” Torahscreamed. She released the magic. “The stone man!” Alicia had recognised his kind. They got in trouble. The rock monsters came from either side. “Homing ball!” The left-hand man broke in two. “Good God!” The monsters kept on walking. “Homing ball!” Torah got occupied by the bats. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia threw the cross like a boomerang. The stone man got smashed. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia dashed to attack. The men crumbled into smaller copies. Alicia struck with the sword. She got to conquer. Alicia hit the stone men. “Glory be You.” They got crushed to pieces. “Our Father in Heaven.” She sighed. “You are not fit for love.” The harpygot the bow. “This is yourdestiny.” Alicia shuddered. This was madness. “Please!” The sister fired. “Do not forsake me!” Alicia cried. The arrow went home. She laughed.“What have you done?” She got dizzy. Alicia touched her forehead. “Only what you deserve.” She mocked. “You have no right.” Alicia picked the dagger. “May the Lord forgive my sins.” She got the gold knife. “You won’t dare!” It was too late. She pierced the heart. “Let it be.” Alicia watched her demise. She sighed. There was something else. Aliciablazed. “Oh no.” She itched between her legs. “Please don’t… !“Alicia fell upon her knees. “Not this again!” She pulled at her belt. “Help me!” This wasn’t the right place. Alicia removed the trousers.She touched inside her underwear. Aliciagot wealth. She got poisoned by the lust. “Please!” The arrow pierced her shoulder. She almost forgot. “This isn’t right.” Alicia got preoccupied. “This is bad.” Torah bent down to might check on her condition. “There is one more arrow.” Aliciafeltlike turning upside-down. “Flying through the air.” She giggled. “This isn’t funny.” Torahsearchedfor the laurels. “Leave me alone.” Alicia struggled to resist. She gotexcited. “That is funny.” Strange images kept appearing in her mind. She was a consortat his court. Theconcubine performed her act until exhausted. She then fell into a swoon. “How weird.” The girl awoke in thearms of ademon.He kept her. She gave in to his cravings. “Get a grip!” Torah hit her between the eyes. “You are a vampire hunter!” She hit her again. Alicia blinked. She was naked. What happened? “I release you from the spell!” Torah had found the laurels. She removed the curse. Alicia might breathe. She remembered. Alicia broke down in tears. “Oh Torah.” She wept. “What have become of me?” She hid her face. Alicia lost her glasses. She tried to clean the tears. Alicia didn’t deserve the title. “You got pierced by an arrow.” Torah sighed. “I am sorry.” She returned the spectacles. “Phantom of fear.” Alicia shrugged. The articles lay in a heap. Alicia blushed. She better redress. Alicia had acted like a whore. She felt so ashamed. How Torah must despite her. “Nothing is ever lost.” The girl beheld her. “You are a Belmont.” She played with the orb. “Even in the dark;there shall be a great light.” She picked with the ring smash. “You might rekindle the fire.” Torah looked up into her face. “If God so will.” Alicia acknowledged. She was right. The hunter retrieved the chain mail. “Right.” She had to remove the glasses. Alicia replaced them upon her face. “So let it be.” The rings almost got caught among her hair. Alicia got to pull. She put on the iron plate. Alicia re-zipped the leather jacket. “I am ready.” Shetied the scarf tight around her neck. Torah climbed the stairs. She got to follow. They reached atop. The scimitar lay in ambush. “Good Lord in Heaven!” Alicia exclaimed. “Get behind!” Torah would fight. “You devil!” The sparks flew on impact. The bone-scimitar struggled to strike. Torah got forced to kneel. She had crouched into a defensive posture. “Preserve us from evil!” Alicia didn’t get through. The girl and the skeleton occupied the platform. “Watch out!” She picked the dagger. “Right!” Torah charged. “Homing ball!” She cried. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia released the flame blast. The scimitar exploded on impact. “Let it be!” Alicia exhaled. She had reached atop the pillar. “We are in trouble.” Torah lit her palm. “Tell me about it.” The needle went around the area. That wasn’t the real problem. “The dragon is resting again.” Torah picked upon the smash. “Let it be.” Alicia bit her lip. The white dragon kept in place. “This mightbecome dangerous.” The metal ring gotimbedded beneath the Dagon sculpture. The water mightsoak anyone who tried to hold it. “This will obscure the magic.” Torah told. “The fountain might block me out.” Alicia sighed. “This isn’t the dark ocean.” She remarked. “I know.”Torah hung up the ring smash. “Let us continue.” Alicia reached for the crucifix. “Save us!” They got to time the jump. “Oh my God!” The statues were alive. “Homing ball!” Torah exclaimed. “Good Lord!” The stone man broke into two smaller copies of itself. “Right!” They came from either side. Alicia threw the vial. The holy water went up in flame. The monster broke on impact. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the triple shot. That wasn’t enough. The smaller men kept on coming. “Let it be!” Alicia made a back-flip. She threw the axe. “Get lost!” Torah knelt behind the cross. She threw the ring smash. “I am here!” Alicia cried. The girl crushed the monster. “Let it be!” Alicia made it to rain with holy water.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The stench was horrible. Heinz was the only one who might climb down into the Greece pit. “Do not underestimate the power of the dead.” Lucy told. “Keep the faith.” He acknowledged. Tenise was no longer visible. She must have become small to squeeze inside that area. “Bubble boom!” He was afraid. “Keep them occupied.” The bats squeaked. Heinz got cold. Lucy smiled. “Poison ivy!” The wines grew from her fingers. She would strike the monsters. “Then let it begin.” They held their hands together. “This we must do.” Penny had decided. Her brown eyes were aglow with conviction. “I believe in you.” Heinz exhaled. “Thank you.” He crawled into the pit. “Ugh.” The stench grew even worse. “Save me.” Heinz hid his nose. That was the scent of rotting flesh. “Hand of Fate!” The gold lit up. His hand was a lamp. “Good Lord!” The cave was monstrous. It must have been there for centuries. He felt small. The stalactites and stalagmites grew together into the columns. Heinz touched the cross. “Then so let it be.” He kept the icon tied around the wrist. “Preserve us from the evil One.” This was no cave. This was a tomb. The stone sarcophagus belonged to a celebrated person. “Riddles in the dark.” Penny came along. “This is Dracula’s curse.” Heinz had a shudder.

The tower, Ruvas forest. The 19 ^th of December 2098 A.D.

Dagon continued to spew the water. Torah retrieved the smash. “Watch out!” Alicia cried. She pushed her aside. “He is awake!” Torah shrugged. She had become a vampire hunter. “Homing ball!” Torah fired. She hit the bone dragon. “That is the way!” Alicia got to shout. The sound of water made it hard to communicate. “That is not the end!” That was the truth. They got a problem. “What can I do?” The spring might block her magic. “I don’t know.” Alicia reachedfor the crucifix. The stinger still kept about. “I once served as a tavern maid.” She cleaned her glasses. “I accept.” Torah hid a gasp. “I am an heir to the house of Belmont.” Alicia got lifted into the air. “You told the truth.” The huge enflamed cross then burst above. “I can be whoever I choose to be.” The white dragon got burned. “I am Alicia Schneider.” Torah closed her mouth. This was how it should be. Alicia had regained her true spirit. “Homing ball!” The dragon was dead. Though not nearly dead enough. Alicia threw the axe. The monster escaped. “Good God!” Torah screamed. The fireballs rebounded on impact. Torah hid behind the cross. “Let it be!” Alicia forged the Rahab sword. That was incredible. She saved their lives. “Homing ball!” Torah got the picture. She cast the smoke.

This was a surprise. Alicia had thought that was impossible. “Preserve us from the Dark!” They were in the shadow of the demon castle. Richter Belmont mentioned about the effect. “Chi no Rondo.” Maria Renard had solved the puzzle. They fought against Dracula in 1792. She sighed. “Right.” That was then. This was now. Alicia got to resolve her own problems. The platform was too narrow for anything fancy. “In the name of Michael the arch angel!” She got the perfect storm. Alicia had inherited the heart of fire. The sword became a brand. Alicia repelled the onslaught.“No!” Torah gripped the ring smash. “You failed. I am a hunter; like Carrie and Yoko before me.” Alicia touched the crucifix. “They were vampire hunters.” Torah shook her head. “Behind you!” The girl went pale. “They might inflict the evil curse!” The bone dragon was breathing flame. “There is nothing to loose!” That wasn’t the problem. “I will not become his plaything!” Torah figured about the danger. “Keep them occupied!” Alicia kept the blade in a dual grip. “The dragon is mine!” She would hunt the night. “Stronger we are!” Alicia struck. She had to close the distance. “In the name of the Lord!” The flame blast went home. “Right.” The skeledragon hit the ceiling. “You are not the king.” Alicia shuddered. She touched the crucifix. There was no quake. “Homing ball!” Torah fired. The bats squeaked. “Forget about it!” The swarm spread out. “Homing ball!” She pulled up. Torah got the ring smash. She spun about. The bats got cut to pieces. “The Lord is with you.” This was not a respite. Alicia inhaled. She got work to do. “Watch out!” The trio advanced. They went for the face. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She presented the crucifix. The trio pulled out. “They must be stopped!” Alicia got the watch. The white dragon spat. “Let it be!” She leaned against the wall. There was no time. The dragon might kill them. Alicia touched her belt. She felt the echoes made of Darkness. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. She cast the spell. “Right!” That was fine. She removed the other bats. “Stronger we are!” Alicia threw the axe. “In the name of the Lord!” The dragon tried to escape. “Not this time.” She pierced the skull. “Preserve us!” The impact shook the tower. That was still not enough. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. She was alive. “So let it be!” She threw the vial. The glass broke on impact. The bone dragon got soaked. The liquid went up in flames. “Your time is over!” She got to fight. Alicia released the clocks. The charge broke the neck. The skeledragon collapsed. That shook the pillar. Alicia stumbled. “Let it be!” She leapt into the air. Alicia gripped the ring. “Here we go!” She felt the pressure. Alicia threw herself forward. She landed atop the platform. The bone dragon left the gems. She picked the price. That was a trifle. Alicia had retrieved both the axe and the holy water. “For great is the mystery of faith.” She put them upon her belt. The stinger had returned. Alicia leaped above. She reached the staircase. Alicia inhaled. “Homing ball!” She turned. “Preserve us!” Torah hung from the ring. “Yeah!” She had to resist the bats. “Leave it!” Torah threw herself forward. “Homing ball!” She reached the platform. Alicia exhaled. “Come on.” Torah hit the candles. The needle came around. “Alright.” She picked the items. Alicia relaxed. The girl got above. “Homing ball!” Her hand was on fire. “Let us continue.” She wentin front. “Good Lord in Heaven!” Alicia felt how her hair got to stand on end. “What are they doing here?” Torah charged the spell. “This is unnatural.” Alicia got confused. The ravens didn’t belong up here. This was no time for philosophy. The birds might rip them. “Stronger we are!” Alicia revealed the crucifix. “In the name of the Lord!” That was nice. “Get lost!” They gota breather. “You devils!” Torah cried. She had bent behind the cross. The ravens approached. Torah begun to tense up. “You won’t take me!” She wouldfight. That was the way. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia threw the axe forward. The birds burned. The feathers fell like leaves. “Homing ball!” Torah got to clean the mess. This was no conquest. Alicia pulled on her braid. They couldn’t rest. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia presented the crucifix. “In the name of the Lord!” The rock monsters awoke to fight. His image granted a breather. “Homing ball!” Torah charged her magic. The figure shrieked. The man broke in two. “Save us!” Torah got caught by the copies. She knelt behind the cross. “You whore!” The harpy got armed. The blonde hid among the statues. Alicia shuddered. “For this is your destiny.” The arrow pierced her forearm. “No! It is not!” Torah made a face. “Nice.” She got in pain. “The crest of Innocence.” Torah spoke through her clenched teeth. “My soul isspoken for.” She removed the arrow. Alicia exhaled. The girl was bleeding. Alicia held the laurels. She got busy. The birds might pick her eyes. Alicia got the stopwatch. That was the end. They got defeated. “Preserve us!” The scimitars broke through the wall. The bats squeaked. “Homing ball!” The harpy kept shooting. Torah hit her between the ribs. The steamthrew her aside. The harpy was dead before reaching the floor. She got burned. Alicia inhaled. “Stronger we are!” The girl might protect herself. “In the name of the Lord” They got to break the curse. She would hunt. Torah had not experienced the crimson moon. Alicia made it to rain with holy water. She held the crucifix. Alicia got Simon’s heart of fire. The bats got burned to ashes. Alicia felt no better. The stone man hit her. “Please, save us!” The fingers got poised to stab. “Get behind!” Alicia presented the crucifix. The figure broke. “Homing ball!” Torah pierced the bone-scimitar. “Excellent!” The skeleton fell into a heap. The other man hit her with the end of his weapon. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia threw the knives. The stone man broke into the copies. “Right!” She threw the cross. ”Preserve us from evil!” The hunt was far from over. “Come on!” Alicia got her sword.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The lid then cracked upon the effort. Penny felt sick about the smell. “They are the undead.” The curse of Darkness lay that heavy upon the tomb. She felt the evil pressure upon her heart. “I have to resist the temptation to study this text.” Penny embraced herself. She got afraid. “The weight of a dead hand.” The glyphs burned in her mind. “The curse has touched me.” Heinz didn’t seem to notice.“She is so beautiful.” They got in peril. The body lay on display. “She really is perfect.” The torchlight got reflected in his eyes. “Do not listen.” Penny told. “She is not for you.” She heard them whisper. “The voices of the dark side.” She felt helpless. They should leave this place. Tenise lay in full Egyptian regalia. “She is resting on treasure.” The harsh unnatural glow got reflected by the gold and other finery. She looked so different. The skin was black. Tenise seemed more rubiousbeneath the gold and gemstone. “Children.” Her eyes were wide open.They spoke of compassion. “There you are.” Penny felt exposed. “Come.” The gaze made her to feel like a dirty little girl. “Leave these others.” Tenise smiled. She licked the fangs. “Let us rest together.” She was naughty. “My arms are hungry for you.” Penny inhaled. “Lightning paw!” She summoned the Light. They got to survive the night.

The tower, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The water dripped and ran down the shaft. Torah bit her lip. That were the cracking of bones. “Homing ball!” She got to do something. The bone-scimitar laughed by her misery. He struck.Thebone-man might pierce the skull. Torah had to escape. The steam blast shot him to pieces. That didn’t change anything. The stone man hit her in the face. “Get away.” Torah groaned. She managed to stamp him. “Good God!” The cross began to burn. “Oh no!” Torah screamed. The figure burned from inside. “Homing ball!” Torah threw herself down.She got the bats. “Thank God!” The swarm got burned to ashes. She dashed at the copies. “I made a promise.” She picked the smash. “That the children shall not live in fear of the night.” She cut the rest. “Stronger we are!” Alicia had returned. “In the name of the Lord!” She conquered the figures. Torah exhaled. She reached for the smash. “We have to continue.” Alicia retrieved the gems. “You are the hunter.” Torah hit the candles. “I am right behind you.” She picked the items. Alicia climbed the staircase. “Homing ball!” Torah began to charge the spell. They continued. “Come on.” They reached the top. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. The bats got burned. She stopped. “Listen up.” The oil lamp lit the area. “You have to climb upon my back.”

Mine shaft, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The lamp was the only source of light. Alicia figured about the rising water. “So let it be.” She reached for the crucifix. “Homing ball!” Torah left her shoulders. Her hand was on fire. Alicia picked together. “Alright.” She had consolidated her power. They reached this far. “The shaft is a well.” Torah picked the ring smash. “The mine is a dungeon.” She bit her lip. “Listen.” She sighed. “We have to escape.” Alicia acknowledged. She unsheathed her sword. Aliciawas the hunter. The water was rising. Torah got ahead. “Wait for me!” Alicia called. She inhaled. Aliciawas no hydraulic.Though she didn’t have to be. The shaftwas a chimney. The Dagon spewedto might submerge the area. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia ran to keep up. “Homing ball!” Torah hit the bats. “Good Lord!” She reached the cell. “Save us!” The skeleton was alive! He reached from behind the bars. Alicia licked her lips. The bone-man would choke her friend. “Leave me alone!” Torah struck with the ring smash. The man got crushed to pieces. “Stronger we are!” Alicia cried. “In the name of the Lord!” She hurled the vial. The bats got burned to ashes. Alicia kept on running. “Homing ball!” Torahcharged her magic. The other cell was open. “Look out!” The skeleton threw the bones. The girl blocked the onslaught. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia caught up. She hit between the ribs. “Get away!” Torah got the ring smash. The bats squeaked for blood. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia picked the gems. “In the name of the Lord!” She got ahead. The bone-bag reached to break her. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the steam blast. “Thank you!” The skeleton collapsed into a heap. That was not important. The bats went like a wave. “Preserve us!” Alicia presented the crucifix. She stamped the evil. They got burned to ashes. Alicia exhaled. She kept on climbing. “I am here!” Torah kept up. “I know.” Alicia relaxed. “Homing ball!” The spell collided with the monsters. “Watch it!” The bats were not alone. The skeleton reached from within the cell. The man caught her in an iron grip. “Release her!” Alicia threw the dagger. They were the living dead. The captive appeared to hurl other bones. “Good Lord!” She removed the skull. “You monster!” Torah stamped him out. “Come on!” The water kept rising. They got to leave the area. “Not you again!” The bats came for blood. They settled upon her body. Alicia reached for the belt. They might inflict a cursed state. Alicia doused herself. That was nice. She pulled upon her braid. The dead man groped her. She shuddered. The dead man squeezed upon her breasts. The nipples went hard with fright. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia presented the crucifix. “For glory be You!” The man released her. “Our Father in Heaven!” His touch went lower. “Hands off you devil!” Torah removed the hands. “Thank you.” Alicia felt shaky. “That was great.” Torah shrugged. She went to climb up. Alicia picked together. They got no time. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. The skeletons slept within the cell. Torah tried to escape. “Save us from evil!” Alicia got hit. There were not enough space. Alicia groaned. Her lungs were freezing. “Leave us alone!” Torah threw the rings. Both the skeletons got smashed to pieces. Alicia bent forward. “Here.” She retrieved the items. “They belong to you.” Torah hung up. “Thank you.” She told. “Homing ball!” The bats scattered about. Alicia ran. The skeletons trapped her in between. Alicia got the clock. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” They got shot to pieces. Alicia hit the candles. She took the crystals. “We have to continue.” Torah got a sample. “The water is rising.” Alicia had figured. “Look out!” She threw the axe. The bats got burned to ashes. “Homing ball!” Torah had reached ahead. “Curse of Darkness!” The swarm wentfor the neck. Torah revealed the cross. The skeletons reached to choke her. “You leave her alone!” Alicia caught up. She threw the three daggers. “We have to hurry.” The girl kept climbing. “Come with me.” Alicia stopped to pick the gems. She ran forward. Torah groaned. She got hit by the skeleton. Alicia got to help her. “Then stronger we are!” She would fight. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia got the crucifix. She got lifted into the air. The enflamed cross burst overhead. That cleansed the area of evil. The dead got put to rest. “You are alive.” Alicia embraced her friend. “Of course.” Torah smiled. “Then so let it be.” Alicia sighed. “Come on.” She got in front. “The dead do wander were they do not belong.” The skeletons made an ambush. They might break her. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. The dead men got shot to pieces. Alicia exhaled. They got to leave the cave. She ran forward. Torah got behind. The cells got occupied. The bone-bags escaped. They might kill them both. “Save us!” Alicia got hit in the face. “Homing ball!” Torah aimed for the bats. “You devils!” The men groped the girl. That was pure malice. Alicia stamped the skeleton. “Release me!” The dead mengot her in check. “Let her go!” Torah broke the spine. The bone-man collapsed. “I mean it.” Torah got the companion. “Right.” Alicia shook the bones. “Time to continue.” The water was reaching up. “Hurry!” Torah called. “Or we perish!” They ran to survive. Alicia looked for the entrance. There were nothing to see. She stopped. The skeletons lived. “Preserve us from evil!” They caught her friend. Alicia staggered. The bone-men approached. They threw the bones. Alicia got hurt. She bit together. Alicia made it to rain with holy water. The dead got put to rest. Torah picked the gems. She looked much better. “Then so let it be.” They couldn’t stay. Alicia went to climb upward. “Look out!” The bone-bags were ready. “Homing ball!” Torah sent them blasting into oblivion. “For great is the Lord.” Alicia relaxed. “Our Father in Heaven.” The water kept rising. She pulled at the glasses. Alicia had to climb. They reached atop the shaft. The mist obscured everything. Alicia inhaled. They were alone. The pond got surrounded by statues. Alicia shuddered. She got a bad feeling about this place.

Their images had become transfixed. Benjamin shivered bythe cold. Hecouldnot escape. The seerbeheld hisfriends.Theyencountered theprincess.The redhead met the dead. “Something stirred among old bones, to disturb the ancient tombs. Rattled with chains, glittering with pale gold rings upon deadfingers, they might freeze the hearts of the living.”The voices whispered.They filled him with poison. “The world is changing.” They mocked.“The forests shall burn with the fires of industry.” Benjamin felt the tears down his cheeks. This was not in vain. Alfred, Sigmund, Deborah, Reichardt and Simon would defeat the dead. “I am not alone.” Benjamin dared to speak against the voices. “With me stands a million.” The seer got the answer. There was an evil cross. The man wore the robes of a necromancer. He might rise the spirits of the dead. Benjamin shuddered. They pushed through the snow.Benjamin read the article. He sighed. The jam had killed several people. They got no funeral. The bodies should be burned. Alfred and Deborah had climbedatop the ridge. He exhaled. They did something withthe great tree.That cast above the clearing. That was a brilliant idea. “Timber.” Benjamin breathed. “That is the way.” The trunk collapsed. And the fall was great.

The den, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The veil fell away. Ginger kept in motion. “Master!” She shook on the mane of bright hair. “The enforcer!” The blade shone in the torchlight. “The cruel!” Bridget gasped with ecstasy. “The speaker!” They danced like the mad women. The sister cast no reflection in the water. “For revenge is like a kiss.” Ginger Flashed with the golden eye. “This time I won’t miss.” Her other eye was a perfect sapphire. “Now I got you in my trap!” The girl spread her arms. “My honey trap!” She laughed. The witches cut their wrist. “Dracul!” Blood stained the alter. “Hear my voice!” She cried. “A million voices!” Their shrieksent echoes through the void. “Prince of Darkness!” The cursed earth drank the liquid. She moaned. “Accept this sacrifice.” This must be done. “What began in blood.” The world would suffer for what they did to her. “Shall end with blood!” Ginger got an ampule of Malice. “Bone to bones.” She poured it out. “Dust to ashes!” This was like the festival of servants. Kneel, you pesky worms!” She cried. They might have a binding contract. Bridget rejoiced. The great shadow fell upon the den. “Know that your true master shall arrive!” The slaves crawl to show their suppliance. “Endless night!” This was glorious. “By the power of the Dark Lord!” Ginger laughed.

The shuttle might finally settle down. The port then opened to extend the bridge. “Stand by.” The scouts mounted their hoover-bikes. “Sir! Yes Sir!” They went in front. “Shields up.” Lubicant issued his demand. “The area must be kept in good order.” The cyborg explained. He got dispatched from the castle. “Activate the droids.” He triggered the master control. “Behold.” Lubicant was a changeling by birth. “The march of the machines.” He gloated. Lubicant got black fur beneath the white and green plated suit of battle armour. “Sir. Yes sir.” They saluted. The pilots leaned above their instruments. “As you wish.” Lubicant got pleased. The cyborg left a detail of the shock troopers for security. “Listen up. For this is vital.” Lubicant revealed. “I leave you in charge.” The team leader gave his salute. “Hail the count.” The cyborg returned her favour. “Prepare for launch.” The troopers marched down the ramp. “For the Dark Lord’s last command!” Lubicant requested. “You are to kill the Belmont clan!” They answered with one voice. “Forward march!” He cried. “To war!” They entered the cave. “There shall be no new dawn for man!” The circle of blood had sent him to solve this errand. There were no escape. Lubicant would find the throve. He would kill the one who carried it.

They were outside; were the voices talked. There he must be. Alfred felt so cold. “Alright.” The force sent chills down his spine. “Together!” Deborah cried. She looked like a tomboy, with the short-cut red hair and blazing eyes. “That is fine!” Alfred smirked. “Flame rocket!” He cried by the outburst. “Spiral twister!” The flame and wind bound together. “Timber!” Alfred couldn’t help it. “What was that?” Deborah sent him a look. “Nothing.” Alfred told. “Forget about it.” She shook it off. The tree fell into the theatre. “Sleep tight!” That was great. The evil cross was broken. “Curse you people!” The vampires got impaled. “Meteor wing!” Deborah had become invisible. “Great horn!” The girl believed she could fly. . “Red fireball!” She made it to rain with fire and fury. “Pepper breath!” Alfred threw himself forward. “Desperado blast!” He got to fire. “Watch out!” The girl saved him from falling. “Nova blast! Magna explosion!” Alfred got on foot. The boy would bombard the area. “Giga crusher!” Alfred released a storm of tiny bullet fireballs. “Wing blade!” Deborah forged the projectile. “Thank you.” The undead sighed. “Rest in peace.” Alfred then ran to unite with the others. “You underestimate the Dark.” He stopped. The necromancer had come. “I feel your hatred.”

The den, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The pond was filled with water. Torah picked the ring smash. They had reached the pinnacle. This place is above the city. She exhaled. The Dagon kept the river running. Torah bit her lip. She had a look around. Torah blinked. The dome lay open to the forest. That was a surprise. Torah tightened her grip. Everything was quiet. She didn’t like that. “The curse of Darkness.” She didn’t trust it for a second. Things were too silent. There had to be something going on. “Homing ball!” Torah charged her spell. The orb kept changing colour. “Save us from evil.” The figure loomed ahead. She got to relax. The idol got carvedfromthe stone. Torah inhaled. “Evil lurks in the night.” Torah was afraid. She felt the chills down her spine. Torah sighed. She went forher friend. “I don’t believe it.” Alicia cleaned her glasses. “We are in trouble.” Alicia replaced them upon her nose. “They got turned to stone.” Torah reached for the cross. The people stood like abandoned check pieces among the pillars. “Preserve us from evil.” Alicia made the sign of the cross. She leftfrom the shaft of moonlight. Torah didn’t get it. What was her goal? Then she figured. “Good God!” Alicia was right. They got in trouble. Torah got the chronicle. This much was obvious. She exhaled. This one got to hurt.

The blade lay on the pavement. Alicia knew this weapon. That belonged to Michael Geilhardt. She left it behind.Thoughhere it was. How could that be? She bent at the statue to claim it. Something happened. The Claymore left her sheet. Alicia frowned. That was his weapon. Edward would kill her. The Scottish blade got exchanged with the broad sword. “Let it be.” That would be alright. Another blade came torest beneath the statue. Alicia had a closer look. “Oh no!” Torah came to her side. “This can’t be!” Alicia began to weep. “What is wrong?” Torah asked. “Look.” Alicia pointed a shaky finger. “That is my cousin.” She got to gather. This was her fault. “Heinrich should protect the family.” The other sculpture looked familiar. “Oh Patrick.” He was a close friend. “Alicia.” Torah touched her hand. “We are not alone.” Alicia gripped the sword. She had become the hunter. Then again, Alicia might be flexible. The monsters hid among the columns and statues. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia threw the axe. The big bat broke into a swarm of multiple smaller bats. “Homing ball!” The girl cast her spell. Thevampires came for blood. “Good God!” The bats were burning. Torah struck. The monsters got cut to pieces. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia threw the vial. “In the name of the Lord!” The swarm went up in flames. Alicia made the sign of the cross.“Look out!” Torah shrieked. The other bats united. She hid behind the cross. The bat collided. The holy flames erupted. The big bat got burned to ashes. The swarm squeaked by the effort. They went into her face. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia made a back-flip. She threw the gold knife. The bats settled upon her body. Alicia used the stopwatch. “Fine.” Alicia doused herself. The bats got burned. She survived. They gathered into one body. “Alright!” Alicia got lifted into the air. “Stronger we are!” The enflamed crucifix burst above. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia landed upon the floor. She ran to escape. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the mist. The monster froze in place. “You won’t have me!” She threw the smash. The fiendgot knocked to pieces. “Save us!” Alicia was in trouble. The bats dashed to bite her. She might be infected with the undead curse. Alicia threw the cross. They squeaked. “Stronger we are!” Alicia retrieved the cross. “In the name of the Lord!” The monster burned. Alicia inhaled. The vampires got defeated. Alicia felt no better. The howl chilled her blood. That was no bat. The werewolf had come. “Look out!” The beast might inflict a cursed state. “Right!” The monster dugfor her heart. “Save us!” Alicia screamed. The kick sent her flying. “Homing ball!” Torah got away. The big bat went at her throat. “Good God!” Alicia got up. The she-wolf bent to pick the rocks. She might use them as a missile. “What the Devil… ?!” Alicia shook her head. She used the laurels. The werewolf snarled. He dashed for the kill. “Fine.” She gripped the crucifix. “Then so let it be.” Alicia would fight. The monster snarled. Alicia met the approach. Thesword got buried within his chest. Alicia then made a back-dash. The werewolf might gouge her heart. Alicia presented the crucifix. He then cast her aside. Alicia groaned. The flash was too bright. The werewolf howled. He got hurt. “Homing ball!” The shock ripped the swarm. “Good God!” Torah threw herself down. The she-wolf took her. “Curse you!” Torah gave no answer. She stamped her out. The she-wolf howled her misery. “Release me!” Torah screamed. The Lycan squeezed her. “Homing ball!” She cast the mist. That hit the face. “Fine!” The she-wolf staggered. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia made a back-flip. The werewolf snarled. The clawed upper-cut might tear her apart. “Save us!” That was close. “Stronger we are!” She would hunt. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia threw the axe. The werewolf howled. “Good Lord in Heaven!” The weapon exploded. “Get behind!” Torah buried the smash into the chest of her enemy. “You slut!” She struck.“Homing ball!” Torah bent. The monster went like a swarm. The steam blast burst on impact. “I will make you his slave.” The she-wolf ripped. “I am not a plaything!” Torah got the cross. The big bat burst into a swarm of bats. “Let it be!” Alicia cried. The Lycan gave a knee-kick. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia presented the crucifix. “Whore.” He snarled. The heavy punch sent her flying. The bats settled upon her neck. Alicia still held the crucifix. They burned. She used the laurels. The big bat squeaked. “Glory be You!” That was the end. “Our Father in Heaven!” Alicia consolidated the force. She jumped. The monster dashed. Alicia threw the knife. “Then so let it be!” The big bat broke off the attack. “I got you now.” The werewolf was ready. “Then have a respite.” He gave her the knee-kick. “You devil!” Alicia then crouched. The vial broke on impact. The werewolf got doused with holy water. “Good God!” Torah bent behind the cross. The giant bat got burned. “You cannot escape!” She kept dripping blood. “I will make you to suffer!” She threw the rocks. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the mist. “This is for the children!” She threw the ring. The werewolf howled. “You little whore!” That got stuck in her chest. “Get behind!” Torah retrieved her treasure. She stamped with the cross. “Curse you!” The she-wolf struck to rip her. Torah staggered. The werewolf howled. “Leave her alone!” The fairy shot like an arrow. That was a surprise. Alicia blinked. “Glory be You!” She exhaled. “Our Father in Heaven!” Alicia threw the knife. The Lycan got hurt. Alicia made the sign of the cross. She then removed the head. ”Right.” That was the end. The werewolf got burned to ashes. Alicia might relax. “Then so let it be.” She sighed. There were no time. The hunt continued. The giant bat swept for the neck. “Preserve us from evil!” She used the stopwatch. That was not enough. “Stronger we are!” Alicia cried. “In the name of the Lord!” She made it to rain with holy water. Alicia inhaled. She got the edge. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the steam blast. “You slut.” The Lycan snarled.

The big bat then squeaked for blood. Rose went in circles. The fairy came from the forest. Rose knew this pair. The fairy rejoiced. Edward would be proud.“The time to fight is now.” She would fulfil her obligations. “Good mother of trees!” Rose would do what a fey got to do. The count wouldn’t conquer. She wouldn’t allow it. Rose would make their wish come true.”Good God!” The sorceress got time to gather. “Homing ball!” The gold absorbed her enemy. “That was great!” Rose cheered her efforts. “You were fantastic!” The blonde came running. “Watch out!” She cried. “You shall pay!” The she-wolf gaveher the spin-kick. “Good Lord!” She threwa vial. The werewolf shrieked. “Mother of trees!” Rose exclaimed. The vial broke. The she-wolf got burned. Rose flashed. Though that was not the end. “Save us from evil!” The werewolf hurled the rocks. “Homing ball!” Rose got up in front. “Curse you Belmont!” The sorceress cast the mist. “Human trash!” The Lycan got hurt. She threw herself forward. “Look out!” Rose cried. “She might bite you!” That would inflict a cursed state. “I know.” The blonde kept in place. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She picked the crucifix. The werewolf howled her misery. “This is it!” Rose cheered. The she-wolf got burned.

This was horrible. Sigmund pulled through his messy blonde hair. “Howling blast!” He cried. “Blue blast!” The boy got released. That didn’t matter. “Super shocker!” Reichardt demanded. “Static force!” Sigmund presented the crucifix. “Blue blast!” The ice shard became a weapon. Simon exhaled. “Marching fishes!” He escaped. “Fishnet!” He checked the Rolex watch. “Fish force!” He admitted. “Horn torpedo!” The zombies got torn to pieces. “Excellent.” Simon caught his glasses. “Oxygen torpedo!” He cried. That was the final pay-off. “Perfect!” They were invincible! . “V for victory!” Sigmund cheered. “Howling blast!” He shrieked. “Blue blast!” The blonde missed his brother. He twirled with the shard. “Howling blast!” They got to escape. “Volcano hammer!” The blast sent them flying. “Thunder ball!” Reichardt charged his magic. “Horn bomb!” His power confused the dead. “Howling blast!” That was incredible. “Blue blast!” Sigmund released a flurry of icicles. That became a shield. “Volcano boomerang!” Simon threw his weapon. “Howling blast!” Sigmund spread his arms. The boy forged a blizzard. “Blasted!” Sigmund forgot about the others. “Good God!” Sigmund exclaimed. “Blue blast!” The boy got the picture. His friends were in trouble.

The den, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

This was the final battle. Torah threw herself down. “May God make mercy upon your soul!” The ring smashbecame buried within her chest. “Then Cornell shall feast upon your flesh!” The fire consumed the monster. The Lycan howled. Torah bent behind the cross. “Get lost.” The she-wolf got burned to ashes. Torah sighed. The Lycan summoned the Lords of Shadow. She shuddered. “Evil hidden in the dark.” The fairy dimmed her light. “Then so let it be.” Alicia reached for the crucifix. “I have a bad feeling about this.” Torah gripped the smash. That chewing picked her nerves. “Heads up!” The fairy cried. “They hide against the ceiling!” Torah looked skyward. “Good God!” The fairy was right. “Homing ball!” They got in trouble. The skull spider spunthe web. Torah tightened her grip. The steam blast collided. “Save us!” The net got burned. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia used the stopwatch. “Get down!” Torah shrieked. “Homing ball!” The fragments exploded. That wasn’t important. “You shouldn’t do that.” Torahlicked her lips. “They are immune to magic.” Torah figured. That was a problem. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia threw the axe. “In the name of the Lord!” The item burst on impact. “Save us!” Alicia cried. The gargoyle spewed the rocks.

They detached to sweep the dome. Alicia reached for the crucifix. “Good Lord in Heaven!” She got a problem. The skull spider used the web like thenet. Alicia would have to comply. The bloodline abilities would be of no help to her now. “To hunt the night.” She had a breath. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Torah got involved with the stone gargoyle. “Homing ball!” Torah might break the spell. The gargoyle shrieked. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia might support her. “In the name of the Lord!” The spider threw a net. “Sweet dreams!” The fairy released her star dust. “Sleep tight.” The water sprouts decorated the columns. “Good Lord!” The sculpture fell upon the floor. Alicia threw the cross like a boomerang. “Preserve us!” She got the heart of fire. Alicia possessed the perfect storm. “Stronger we are!” The flurry cut the onslaught. “In the name of the Lord!” Torah struck. The gargoyle shrieked. “Homing ball!” The figure got shot to pieces. “Good Lord in Heaven!” Alicia would hunt. She made it to rain with holy water. Alicia ran. The net kept her in place. Torah got the gems. “Homing ball!” The monster spewed tripled stones. “Good God!” She repelled the onslaught. Torah got the smash. The gargoyle tried to escape. “I don’t think so.” Torah made a grimace. Sheheldthe cross. “Right.” Alicia relaxed. The figure broke to pieces. That was impressive. The hunter tore at the web. She threw theknives. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” The trio went home. Alicia bit together. She looked about. “Save us!” Alicia threw the axe.The enflamed attack crushed the spider. She touched the crucifix. The circle became a shield. “Then glory be You!” Alicia hurled the vial. “Our Father in Heaven!” The liquid burned. Alicia exhaled. The gargoyle broke to pieces. She replaced the glasses. “Right.” Alicia sighed. She pulled upon the blonde braid. Alicia picked the gems. “Take a nap.” The fairy sparkled. The gargoyle spewed the rocks. “Homing ball!” Torah saved her life. “You leave her alone!” The monstergot torn apart. “Run for your life!” The fairy cried. “Beware of the skull spider!” The creature threw the net. “Mother of trees!” Torah got stuck. “Save us!” She fought to run. Alicia made the sign of the cross. She would help her. “Good Lord!” The splinters cut her. She screamed. The shards pierced both the mail and chest plate. “Preserve us from evil!” Alicia used the laurels. The skull spider had reached the floor. Alicia ran. The monster struck. She picked the stopwatch. “Homing ball!” The steam blast obscured the monster. “Let it be!” The spider never referred to the time stop. Alicia created the flame blast. She made a glide. The weapon got extended. “Homing ball!” The combo broke the skeleton. “Thank you.” Alicia then reached for the crucifix. “Look out!” The fairy appeared in front. “Homing ball!” The girl cast the steam blast. They got to hunt. “The monsters are hiding against the ceiling!” Torah made a glide. She got beneath. Alicia might breathe. The girl escaped the onslaught. “Homing ball!” Torahcried. She hit the monster. “I got You!” The mist cracked the gargoyle. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia jumped to throw the gold knife. “Let it be!” The weapon got buried within the skeleton. “You monster!” She doused him with holy water. That absorbed the dead. Alicia exhaled. “Homing ball!” Torah cast her spell. “Good God!” The steam blast rammed the gargoyle. “Save us from evil!” The monster might tear her apart. Torah presented the cross. She threw the ring. That gave the upper hand. Alicia inhaled. “Right.” She released the clocks. That shook the spider. “Preserve us from evil!” Alicia cried. The beast got captured. The stopwatch might grind them to dust. Alicia removed the head. She fetched the gems. They restored the energy. “Good God!” Torah bent behind the cross. “Homing ball!” The gargoyle shrieked. Torah cast the steam blast. “You are the sorceress!” The fairy danced about. Alicia made a back-flip. The spider threw the web. She got captured. “Preserve us!” The monster pulled her toward the ceiling. Alicia got hold of the fabric. “Alright!” The crucifix burned the net. “Let it be!” Alicia inhaled. She escaped. “Excuse me.” That was a mistake. Alicia might fall. “Let it be.” She reached for the belt. “Stronger we are!” The vial broke on impact. “In the name of the Lord!” The monster got consumed. She sighed. Alicia made a roll. “Thank You.” She survived the impact. Then thecorpse hit the floor. “Homing ball!” Torah cracked the gargoyle. She fetched the gem. Alicia exhaled. “Let it be.” Her family got cast in stone. “Farwell.” Alicia had no choice. She got to leave them behind. “This is because of the serpent.” The fairy returned. She was dull. “They told me the story.” Alicia reached for the crucifix. Who was this fairy? The heavy thud disturbed her thoughts. “They are the undead!” Torah picked the smash. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia got a shudder. The bone-trooper got armed with the sword and mallet. “Preserve us!” Her friends had vanished among the statues. “Then so let it be!” Alicia pulled at the braid. The trooperhad to be at least two meters tall. “They must be shot to pieces!” Alicia inhaled. She would hunt the night. The trooper marched to conquer. Alicia presented the crucifix. They were dressed up like wikings; with domed helmets, bear skin tunics and chain mail. “Good Lord!” Alicia threw the cross. She got to punch out. The giant might smash her skull. Alicia slid beneath. The crucifix lit up between her fingers. “Let it be!” He staggered. “Alright!” She threw the daggers. Alicia made the sign of the cross. The knives went home. The trooper made a bad step. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” This was not enough. Alicia threw herself forward. The dead trooper was not deterred. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. She peeked from behind a statue. “Get lost!” The girl was too small. “This is my department!” Torah got hurt. “Forgive me!” There were nothing she could do. Alicia reached for the belt. “Then so let it be!” Alicia cried. She made it to rain with holy water.

The sword broke the statue. Rose got a bad feeling about this. “Mother of trees!” She cried. The bone trooper beheld her through empty sockets. “Homing ball!” Torah cast her magic. The fairy cheered. “Get down!” Torahgot beneath. The man might kill her. “Homing ball!” Her mist made him to stagger. “Good God!” He never stopped. The bone-trooper approached. “You leave her alone!” Rose shot toward the ribs. The skeleton raised both arms. “This is it!” Rose got dizzy by the impact. She got to rest. “You devil!” Torah arrived. She got the smash. “You made it!” The trooper fell upon his knee. Torah went for the neck. “This is the end!” Rose was on fire. The skeleton collapsed into a heap. Torah bit her lip. “Curse of Darkness.” She bent before the pile. Rose sat on her shoulder. “This is for the children.” Torah breathed. She picked the cross. Torah put the symbol on top. She got up to run. The pile exploded. “Black forest!” Rose screamed by the outburst. The bones got littered about the place. “Homing ball!” Torah charged. “They use black sorcery!” Rose left her shoulder. “I know.” The bone trooper rebuilt the skeleton. Torah cast the spell. The trooper took the brunt. “Mother of trees!” He retrieved the sword. “Homing ball!” Rose figured they got in trouble.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

They were different. Reichardt had charged his knowledge into a weapon. “Super shocker!” These were the rotten zombies. “Lightning blast!” They got shot to pieces. “How horrible!” The tomboy got sick. “Thunder ball!” Reichardt hid his face. “Fish force!” Simon was alive. He put an arm around his shoulders. “Aqua attack!” He created a fountain. “Take a shower.” The liquid sprinkled the snowscape. “Howling blast!” Siegmund had arrived. “Blue blast!” His bow and arrow gesture released the spread-shot of pointed icicles. “Static force!” Reichardt got taken aback. They would not forsake him. “Horn bomb!” He might secure. “Thunder ball!” The corpse ripped his head off to use as a projectile. “Super shocker!” Reichardt felt the chills down his spine. “Howling blast!” Sigmund forged another blizzard. He obscured the dead. “Asteroid field!” Reichardt staggered. “Ouch!” That was a new trick. The boy closed his eyes. The force kept building up. Reichardt felt the pressure. “Blue blast!” His friend twirled with the ice-shard. “Aqua attack!” Simon made it to rain. “Fish force!” Reichardt felt like he might be torn apart. “Thunder ball!” He got no choice. “Asteroid field!”
The corpse got moulded into dust. “Horn bomb!” Reichardt cried. This was the real power.

The den, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The trooper struck with the end of his weapon. Torah staggered. “Look out!” The faygot red. “Homing ball!” The steam blast carved some space. “Good God!” She made for the throat. The bone-trooper carried a crystal skull about the neck. “Get lost!” He was ready to fight. “This is for my mother’s fountain!” The fairy hit him between the eyes. Torah licked her lips. The trooper might crush her within his grip. Torah struck with both rings. “Leave her alone!” The razor rings got buried inside his torso. “Homing ball!” She sent the magic threw hisribs. The purple plasma burned on impact. “Beware!” The fairy tried to warn her. She was too late. “Good God!” The punch sent her flying. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. The mistwent home.

Torahhad crushed the skull necklace. “That was great!” The fairy survived. She shone a soft green. “Perhaps.” Torah took the gems. Torah exhaled. “For the children.” The jewels replenished her energy. “I got no apple of life.” The fairy explained. “Though I am a healer.” Torah acknowledged. She got other problems. “Homing ball!” She cried. Torah got to protect herself. “Come on!” She told the fairy.

The mist lay heavy upon the dome. Alicia threw to sword from hand to hand. “Preserve us.” She made the sign of the cross. The trooper burned. Alicia might see beyond the obvious. That was a clan ability. The skull necklace were the focus of the evil. She made a grimace. The Malice stanched like an open grave. “Good Lord!” Alicia screamed. She hurled the axe.Alicia gotan edge. He staggered. “Be gone from me Satan!” She blazed with righteous anger. This had to end. Alicia forged the pyre sword. “Rest in peace.” She pierced between the ribs. The bone-trooper collapsed into a heap. “Let it be!” Alicia removed the crucifix. “Save us.” She then left her problems into the hands of the Lord. “For we do not know what we do.” Alicia put His image upon the pile. The heap exploded. She retrieved the crucifix. “Worshipped and glorified.” She kissed His image. “Together with the Father and the Son.” The trooper built up to grasp the mallet. Alicia shuddered. She forgot. He might crush her. The punch sent her flying. Alicia got up upon her knee. “Preserve us!” She threw the daggers. The skeletons were weak against the frost. Alicia exhaled. She used the laurels. “So let it be.” The giant pulled together. He marched to mush her. “The Belmont clan shall hunt the night!” The stopwatch kept him in place. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia sighed. Her soul was a weapon. She threw the gold cross. “Let it be!” Alicia went for the pendant. She would not be the weak link. “Out of time!” The stopwatch might grind him to dust. “Right!” That didn’t happen. “Stronger we are!” She would hunt. “In the name of the Lord!” The skeleton struck with the mallet. Alicia threw the vial. He marched through the flames. Alicia almost gagged upon the Malice. “Haunt me no longer!” She stabbed through his teeth. The trooper shook. Alicia retrieved the blade. The skeleton collapsed. “Destroy the necklace.” Torah and the fairy returned. “Let it be.” Alicia put down the crucifix. The pile exploded. “Then glory be You!” Alicia exclaimed. “Our Father in Heaven!” She picked the price. “Homing ball!” Torah lit the orb. “This is black witchcraft.” Alicia made the sign of the cross. “We have to leave.” She went for the idol. “Let itbe.” The pile of jewels lay upon the floor. The glow brought warm feelings to her heart. “Those are blood diamonds.” Shehad no mind. Alicia bent to fill her hands with riches. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the triple shot. “Save us!” The bone-troopers got armed to the teeth. “Den of skeletons.” Alicia reached for the crucifix. “Preserve us from evil!” The giants brought the axe, the gauntlets and the mace to the table. Alicia let the treasure. She made a glide. The gauntlets struck with both fists. That was close. Shegot beneath. “Take this!” Alicia threw the vial. “You monster!” The skeleton caught fire. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She picked the crucifix. The giant fell to his knees. “Then rest in peace!” Alicia cried. She buried the sword between the ribs. The skeleton shook. He collapsed into a heap. “Let it be!” Alicia put down His image. The explosion hit the area. “Good Lord!” The giantstruck the floor. Alicia made a back-flip. She threw the daggers. “Stronger we are!” The trooper had a bad step. “In the name of the Lord!” She licked her lips. The gauntlets got on foot. Alicia made it to rain with holy water. The troopers burned. “Homing ball!” Torah struggled to keep the axe man occupied. She knelt behind the cross. The mist went home. The giant collapsed. That carved some space. “The Lord is with you.” Alicia believed in her abilities. “You can save the forest!” The fairy blazed. Alicia inhaled. She threw the three vials. That crushed the mace. “Let it be!” Alicia put down the crucifix. The blast was spectacular. “Excellent.” Alicia had no breather. She got to stop the gauntlets. The giant might kill her. “Save us!” She doused the man with holy water. Alicia bit her lip. The ball-and-chain returned to battle. Alicia dodged. The impact shook the area. “Look out!” Alicia threw the axe. “Homing ball!” The girl was alive. Her mist might choke the monsters. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia put the crucifix before the pile. “Let it be.” She made a glide. The gauntlets got shot to pieces. “For great is the Lord!” She took the gems. “Our Father in Heaven!” The ball-and-chain went into closer combat. “Save us from evil!” Alicia trusted with the sword and dagger. The bone-trooper shook. Alicia made a back-flip. She used the stopwatch. “Let it be!” Alicia threw the cross. The boomerang broke his ribs. “Then stronger we are!” She retrieved the weapon. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia cried. She put down the crucifix. The mace exploded. Alicia retrieved the icon. “Rest in peace.” Alicia fetched the gems. She made the sign of the cross. The crystals replenished her energy. “Homing ball!” Torah fired. The gold went home. That removed the skull. “Oh my God!” That didn’t change much. “Get down!” The trooper twirled with the axe. He might take her. “Good Lord!” Alicia was too far away. She didn’t care. Alicia ran to assist her friend. “Mother of trees!” The fairy tried to break the ribs. “Get away from there!” That was too late. The trooper might crush her. “You leave her alone!” Alicia bent. She reached for the boot. Alicia kept the knife in there. “Be gone you devil!” Torah presented the cross. “Homing ball!” The spell exploded. The giant shook. “Watch out!” Alicia threw the dagger. “Preserve us!” She had lost the target. They got in trouble. “You are the sorceress!” The fairy proclaimed. Alicia shook her head. The fairy was alive. That was incredible. “Watch out!” Alicia cried. “He is still alive!” The axe man approached. Alicia got terrified. That wouldn’t stop her. “Stronger we are!” Alicia reached for the crucifix. “In the name of the Lord!” She exhaled. The trooper stopped. “Homing ball!” The spell exploded. The man collapsed. “Game over.” Torah put the cross upon the heap. “Fire in the hall!” Alicia threw herself down. “Save us!” The impact shook the dome. “Right.” Alicia got up. She should be glad. The hunt was over.

This was the death of the forest. Rose felt his presence. “Mother of trees.” He was so cold. “Preserve us.” Alicia breathed. “Show yourself.” Torah demanded. “I know you are here.” Everything was quiet. Rose had no rest. She couldn’t maintain her colour. This was wrong. “In the name of the Father, the Son and of the holy Ghost!” She made the sign of the cross. The fairy restored her light. The cross and the crucifix went ablaze. Rose felt much better. “Those who wander in the dark shall see a great light.” Alicia changed grip upon her weapon. “Then so let it be.” Torah kept looking about. “Forest’s death!” Rose felt the shift in nature. “The power of Dracula!” She was not alone. “Save us!” The hunter also had noticed. “Homing ball!” The oil lamp had burned out. “This is for the fountain.” The fairy went dull. The chill wisped through broken battlement. “I love the shade and the shadow.” He spoke. “And how few a days there go to make up a century.” He ripped through the time and space. Rose screamed. She hid behind her wings. That was too late. He was here; then it was over. “For this is the end of time.” The fairy shed some tears. “It is you.” Torah spread her arms. She maintained the ring smash. That was to no avail. Rose knew they already got defeated.

 

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

There were the voices of the darkside. Deborah refused to listen. “Spiral twister!” She cried. “Great claw!” Alfred challenged the vile warlock. “The force is with you, young humans.” The necromancer hissed. “Though you are not hunters yet.” The hood cast his face in shadow. “And you seized to be living a long time ago.” Alfred remained tall. He had become the hero. The wizard’s breath was poison. “You human scum.” He unsheathed a short blade of steel. “You are to suffer.” The nasty pale light then flickered like a burial pyre. “Rest in peace.” Deborah might conjure the perfect storm. “You can destroy the count. We have foreseen it.” That was impossible. Alfred forged the fist. “You have only begun to discover your power.” The necromancer repelled the assault. “Join me.” He reached with a strong compelling hand. “Then I will complete your training.” Deborah shivered. She could feel his lust for power. “Together we shall rule the realm like the circle of blood.” Alfred had turned white with rage. “I Never join you!” Deborah wished to hide. “If you only knew the power of the dark side.” The spinning ring of fireballs went twirling through the air. “The approach to despair.” Deborah got excited. “Please.” Was she a sadomasochist? That would be his final triumph.

The den, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

So it had become. Death got prepared. “Thou art to kill the Bellmont clan.” The count spoke. To execute his last command. “They shall nay leave these grounds.” For the Aria of Sorrow. The angel knew. “Then I summon thee; the embodiment of suffering.” They were outside. “The creature of Chaos.” Though he must observe. “Death comes to us all.” Simon Belmont. The Vampire huntergot the heart of fire. “Wherever rest lord Dracula, Death is his servant.” Such was the pack forged by the Lords of Shadow. Though they wereunlike the brotherhood. The witches lusted for the power. He was the grim reaper. “A messenger sent by the Master. Death would bestow upon them with the count’s magic. Such was the reward of fealty. “Anger, hate and agony.” That they deserved. “To complete the circle.” The second event. Though these women held not the strength of the order. Their cooperation were enough. “Every 100 years; the forces of God mysteriously starts to weaken.” Such spoke the lore. “Thus the power of Dracula starts to revive itself.” The ancient lore of the grimoire of souls. “His power grows stronger and stronger each every century.” He recited. They were to know. This was the hour. “Dark night.” At last he would reveal himself to the Belmont clan.

A.N: This was short. Either way, I hoped you liked it. I got inspired by the CV DX and SCVIv titles for this text. The final battle is ahead. Until then, have a nice time.

“”Then the entire body is dark.””

Battle track: Dark Night.

Dabi’s path, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

These grounds were the ditch. Lubicant inspected the instruments. “By the Master’s voice.” The group got lost. The tracking system had failed. There were to many mineral deposits. That was not his responsibility. The Brent corporation would have to decide. “For the count.” The minerals might be worth mining for. The cyborg could not value the prospect. No matter. The influx was not his only source of concern. The path itself might have a toll on his moral. “Stand tall.” Lubicant instructed. He had lost several of his men to this labyrinth. “Yes sir.” That wasn’t reassuring. “Somebody! Please! Help me!” The trooper cried. “Get it off me!” They walked right into a trap. “Shoot it!” The scouts were dead. The slugs pierced the armour. “Come here!” The cyborg tried for order. “Fire at will!” This was a disaster. “”Blast them!” He came unprepared. “Use the thrower!” The grenade went off. The tunnel shook. “Retreat!” The ceiling collapsed. “Fire in the hall!” The troopers spread out. “By the Dark Lord!” Lubichant cursed. He used the shields for cover. “Come in!” He was alone. “Answer me!” The cyborg survived the impact. “This is the commander!” He yelled into the com-link. “Report in!” There came no answer. “Dracul!” The slug climbed up the leg. He stepped on it.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

This was unfair. Simon inhaled. “I have seen your kind of order.” Alfred created a fist of fire. “Hatred, fear and cruelty.” They got to do something. “Marching fishes!” Simon cried. “Oxygen torpedo!” The dark warlock dismissed about the outcome. “You cannot resist us.” He might summon the spirits of the dead. Deborah leaned on the bike. “You don’t know fear. You don’t know weariness.” He made lightning strike. “You shall serve me.” She screamed. “Fish force!” Simon couldn’t bare it. She blushed. There was something not right about that. “Nevermore!” He shuddered. “Forgotten lore!” The raven went for flesh. “Static force!” Reichardt and Sigmund fought back-to-back. “Horn torpedo!” Simon retained his glasses. “Flame rocket!” Alfred tried to fry the necromancer. “Go after him.” The warlock pointed. “Bring him to ground.” Simon felt his hair stand on end. “Aqua attack!” That was a fountain. “Though I am not like her.” The evil necromancer appeared through the mist and vapour. “The wicked witch of the east.” Simon made a stance. “Aqua attack!” Deborah crawled. “Resident evil.” He sighed. “Not quite.” The necromancer hissed. He stabbed with the sword. “Pepper breath!” Alfred spat. The warlock got through. “Red fireball!” Deborah cast her spell.

The den, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

This was the fate of the living. Torah felt chills down her spine. “That isthe angel of Death.” She whispered. “The grim reaper.” Death had finally made manifest. She embraced herself. Torah felt so cold. The angel showed his face. “So, this is thy power?” Deathremarked. “Then I shall test thee.” The grim reaper was floating in the air. “To open the Hell’s gate!” Torah felt how her hair got on end. “Come forth, my servants.” She licked her lips. “Oh no.” The fairy hid behind her wings. “By the Mother of trees!” This was black magic. “Beware.” She changed colour. “She might kill you.” The fairy burned a bright red. Torah was afraid. She shuddered. Torah mourned the loss. She even shed some tears. Torah felt so helpless. “You have to fight.” The fairy got into her face. “Be gone thy insect.” The reaper decreed. “Thee time is over.” She gathered. “Thee have no place here.” The scythewas huge. “Leave.Thymight be destroyed.” Torah bit together. That wouldn’t happen. Marcia gave up her life. She deserved much better. Torah wouldn’t allow it. She would rather fall. “Leave her alone!” Torah didn’t know her name. That made no difference. “Stronger we are!” Alicia challenged. “In the name of the Lord!” Torah was not afraid. She knew the truth. They were not alone.

This was the moment. Alicia made the sign of the cross. “They are the legions of the dead.” The angel would inspect the tournament. “Let it be.” She had recognised the antagonist. Though it was incredible. “Bridget?” Alicia breathed. “Is that you?” The woman hid her face. “Don’t look at me.” She sobbed so hard. Alicia was speechless. There were nothing left to do. “I thought you perished.” Bridget was shaking. “Then why didn’t you save me?” She asked. ”You know you could.” Her voice was streamed with sorrow. “Forgive me.” Alicia pleaded. She tried to explain herself. “That I wasn’t quick enough.” Her hands hung open at her sides. “You don’t have to be.” Bridgetfinally returned the gaze. “I have discovered the comfort.” She smiled bright through her tears. “The comfort of the eternal life.” Alicia gulped her fright. She made the sign of the cross. “So let it be.” This was it. Alicia had figured about the truth. “I will not become a plaything of evil.” She doused her with holy water. Bridget shrieked. “You will die!” She then changed her appearance. Alicia got away. “Preserve us from evil!” She revealed the crucifix. “He will not avail you!” The L. Vampire spread her wings. “Behold!” The leather corset got studded with spikes. “The forces of Hell!” Alicia figured. The bats went for blood. “Good God!” Torah charged her spell. The skeletons spread about. “Homing ball!” Shecast the mist. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia ran to challenge the undead. “In the name of the Lord!” The L. Vampire exposed her fangs. “Come to me.” She cooed. “Then let us rest together.” Alicia got sick by the invitation. “My arms are hungry for you.” She smiled. “Never!” Alicia threw the gold knife. “You have lost.” She cried. “Kiss me then.” The L. Vampire opened her arms. The bats swooped for her blood. Alicia made a back-flip. The woman slashed. “Excellent.” The skeleton held her by the arms. “You keep her in place.” The L. Vampire licked her lips. “You got a nice body.” She touched the front of her jacket. “Do you remember the time we spent together?” Bridget reached for her belt. “Let us play.” Alicia gathered herself. “I was a fool.” She cried. “Homing ball!” Torah dashed. “Save us!” The plasma burst on impact. “Thank you.” Alicia exhaled. The skeletons got shot to pieces. “No! Not anymore.” The lady wentdown on her knees. “Please mistress hunter, I surrender.” She seemed to wither before their eyes. Alicia licked her lips. The vile featureshad vanished. “I am too weak.” She put her arms up in front. “Please.Don’t kill me.” Alicia got confused. She pulled on her braid. “Help me.” What was she to do? “Right.” Alicia cleaned her glasses. She wouldn’t commit murder. “Let us be gone.” Alicialeft themin the hands of the Lord. “Watch out!” The fairy extinguished her light. “This is a setup!” The L. Vampire snarled. “You will die!” The claws might rip her. The bats went for the others. “Stronger we are!” Alicia threw the axe. “In the name of the Lord!” The L. Vampire made the bats to swoop. “Curse you!” The bat swarm exploded on impact. Alicia got to react. She used the stopwatch. The woman got trapped in place. Alicia presented the crucifix. The vampire folded her arms. The leather gauntlets protected her skin. “Homing ball!” Torah crushed the skeletons. “Alicia!” She threw the ring like a boomerang. Bridget exposed her fangs. She got hurt. “Away from me Satan!” The vampire went like a wild cat. She landed on top. “Save us!” Alicia staggered. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. The teeth hit together. Alicia had to resist. “You leave her alone!” The fairy pierced the shadow. “Good God!” Torah stamped the dead. Her faith lit up the dome. Alicia made the sign of the cross. The vampire crawled in the dust. “We made love together.” She touched her knee. “I know you enjoyed it.” Bridgetsobbed. “Let me live.” She shed the bloody tears. “Oh my God.” Torah whispered. “Crimson rain.” She got the eyes. “Crimson tears.” Albus asked Shanoa to smile for him. This was impossible. “Carrie Fernandez had lost everything.” Torah turned upon her magic ring. “After the battle, she could mourn.” Bridget got up to bite her. “For blood is the life!” Alicia was speechless. She fell on her knees. “Blood of the hunter.” The bats swooped at her friends. “Homing ball!” The fairy became a torch. “Good God!” Torah hid behind the cross. “Admiration of a clan.” The L. Vampire bent for another kiss. Alicia gasped. She felt the growing orgasm. “Let it be.” Alicia gathered her remaining strength. “Rest in peace!” Alicia doused her with holy water. The vampire shrieked. Alicia sighed. She got put on fire. Alicia got a respite. “Get down!” That didn’t last for long. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the steam blast. “You Belmont whore!” The vampire hid behind her bats. She left the floor. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia presented the crucifix. “Your blood is mine!” Bridget cried. The bats got in front. “Homing ball!” Torah got in trouble. The girl picked the ring smash. “Then I shall test thee.” The grim reaper beheld the conflict. “Then so let it be!” She made it to rain with holy water. The den got cleaned of bats and skeletons. “You human scum!” The L. Vampire got burned. She reached the dome. “Wait!” Alicia felt chills down her spine. “That rests with the Lord.” The grim reaper might restore the dead. Alicia reached for the crucifix. “Stronger we are!” She flouted in the air. “In the name of the Lord!” His image appeared above. Alicia inhaled. The enflamed cross burst apart. “Glory be You!” The L. Vampire lay prone upon the floor. “Our Father in Heaven!” Alicia knew what to do. “Mina was right.” She impaled the heart. “Let it notbecome an act of vengeance.” Reinhardt Schneider was a tiredold man in 1897. “Compassion is not a weakness.” Alicia had to remove the head. The vampire met her gaze. “Then let the Death and Darkness consume your family!” The L. Vampire burst into flame. The hate never let her eyes. “Rest in peace.” Alicia picked the mystic orb. “Be condemned.” Death announced. “Fine.” Torah and the fairy were alive. She would unite with her friends.

The human folk had gathered. Rose fluttered in front. “Edward sent me.” The fairyexplained. “That man told me about your quest.” Shehad changed her colour. “You met my mother..” The women exchanged glances. “She must be dead.” The girl spoke. “She will be reborn.” Rose cleaned her face. She went purple with loss. Rose picked together. She got work to do. “Her wish was that you should be free.” Torah bent on her knee. “Then why are you here?” Rose settled on top. “I am the guide.” She liked this girl. “Though your friendis in trouble.” The fairy went dull. “There is something going on.” Rose breathed. “The Shadow rising.” Torahhad closed her eyes. “Then it is true.” She sighed. The fairy wished to comfort her. There was nothing she could do. “Who are you?” The hunter aske. “My name is Rose.” Edward kept the card. Never mind.She would help them. “Edward Morris saved my life.” The fairy beamed while she told her story. “You don’t have to do this.” Torah licked her lips. ”Ican release you.” Rose changed her colour. “Thank you.” She didn’t know what else to say. “Then so let it be.” Aliciamade the sign of the cross. “My family promised to hunt the night.”The tree killer chanted to release the evil spirits. “Mother of trees!” Rose exclaimed.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The monsters were so ugly. Lucy pulled through her strawberry blonde hair. “Poison Ivy!” She would fight. “Needle spray!” Lucy turned with the spikes. “Gold rush!” That was perfect. Lucy pulled upon her necklace. She felt like a trap was closing in about her. “Quick punch!” The strike hit the vampire. The woman slowly got up. “Ninja magic!” Lucy licked her lips. She created several copies of herself. The evil bunch then broke up to counter each figure. “Double star!” Lucy removed the head. That was not enough. She inhaled. “Quick punch!” Lucy trusted for the heart. She could breathe again. The lady bursts into fire. “Rest in peace.” The pyre was not a victory. Lucy gathered the force. She retrieved the crystals. “Get away!” The zombies would eat her. “Poison ivy!” She hit the shackle. Lucy moved around the lorry. The woman might stab her. “Double star!” The head dangled. She must be burned. “Right.” Lucy swallowed. This was horrible. She fought not to vomit. “Needle spray!” Lucy twirled. The spikes nailed the heart. Lucy huddled. The pyre lit up. “Save me!” The zombies stenched. “For I perish!” Lucy got up. “Double star!” That pined them against the walls. Lucy sighed. She got a breather. “Come on.” Lucy challenged. She shuddered. The dead kept crawling.

The den, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

This wasthe king’s ransom. Torah swallowed. There werethe gold, diamonds and gems.“The treasure in horde without measure.”She picked the cross. “I can’t lie.” Torah shuddered. “This is a throve.” Alicia pulled on her braid. “Right.” Torah accepted. “We are not alone.” Rose had dimmed her light. “I know.” There was an opening within the dome. Torah exhaled. The shaft of moonlight hit the floor. The figure howled. “He is changing form!” Rose cried. The werewolf had come. Alicia made the sign of the cross. “Preserve us!” She got ready. Torah acknowledged. She got the ring smash. “This must be one of the greater Lycanthropes.“ Lypuston growled. “Bone, flesh and blood.” She breathed. “Cornell’s tribe.” Rose blazed. There were no more time. The werewolf snarled. The fierce combo put her on the ground. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the steam blast. Lypuston howled. “Look out!” Rose got in front. “Pleasant dreams!” She threw the star dust. “Get away!” The werewolf hurled the rocks. “Preserve us from the wicked One!” Alicia cried. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She threw the knives to might cut up the assault. “This is for the children!” Torah got up. “Homing ball!” She charged the attack. “By the Mother of trees!” The fairy cried.

The treasure gleamed before the feet of the giant. Alicia created an item-crush for cover. “Homing ball!” Torah got forced to run. She almost got consumed by the dragon’s syndrome. “You won’t dare!” Alicia revealed the crucifix. “Leave her alone!” The wolf beheld the girl.He lusted for her flesh. “She is only 12 years old!” Torah brushed her dark blonde hair. Lypuston had grown hard like a titan. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia would stop at nothing. “In the name of the Lord!” She would protect her friends. The Lycan howled. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the smoke. “Forest’s death!” Rose screamed. The gale force ripped the spell. “Preserve us from evil!” Alicia released the enflamed blast. The werewolf leapedinto the air. He delivered with the slide kick. “Oh my God!” Torah threw herself down. “Good Lord!” Alicia exclaimed. She got a nasty image. Alicia would be hit with the doggy stile. “No way!” She pulled on her braid. “Not with you!” Alicia was not a doll. “This is for the children!” Torah got up to strike with the ring smash. The werewolf howled.He got hurt. “How gross!” She screamed in turn. Torah got stained with blood. “Preserve us from the wicked One.” Alicia ran. Lypuston had noticed. The upper-cut sent Torah on her way. She got sick about it. The werewolf howled. The sonic blast stunned her in place. “Please, do not forsake me!” Lypuston then curled into a ball for a surprise attack. He slashed before biting. He howled. The tiny gold crucifix began to burn. Alicia felt like going blind. “For the gold and silver.” That was the only way to kill the Lycanthrope. “Homing ball!” The girl cast her spell. “Right!” Alicia inhaled. “No rest for the wicked.” She got exhausted. Alicia made a glide. They got to conquer. Torah picked the ring smash. The werewolf threw the rocks. “Drop it!” Torah escaped. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia struck. Lypuston howled. The shoulder block threw her off balance. “Homing ball!” He resisted the steam blast. “Alright.” Torah created a set-up. “Good God!” She stamped with the cross. “Preserve us!” The band of skeletons pulled her aside. Alicia struggled. She forgot about the grim reaper. “Release me!” The group would choke her. “You devils!” Alicia got Simon’s heart of fire. “Then stronger we are!” She threw the vial.“In the name of the Lord!” The trio collapsed. “Homing ball!” Torah got beneath the combo attack. She threw the flare. Lypuston snarled. He got hurt. “Look out!” The gale force stunned her in place. Alicia felt caught in a blizzard. The Lycan smirked. He picked the rocks. Torah spun. She held the rings high.”Forgive us.” Alicia replaced the glasses. “We don’t know what we do.” She used the stopwatch. “Freeze!” He got kept in place. “Save us.” Alicia breathed. She was afraid. “The legions of the dead!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. The skeleton threw bones into the air. They got in trouble. She withdrew. The werewolf had curled into a ball. He appeared in front. “Human slut.” Lypuston howled. “Then so let it be.” Alicia reached for the crucifix. The figures cracked. The fragments cut her like the pieces of broken glass. “Homing ball!” Torah hit the skeleton. She cast the mist. “Let it be!” Alicia struck. She got to keep him on edge. “Leave her alone!” Torah picked the smash. The skeletons tried to stop her. “Sleep tight!” Rose went like a wasp. The fairy threw the star dust. The werewolf shook his head. “Raw meat.” Lypustondrawled. “Then so flesh is back on the menu.” The Lycanthrope tried to eat her. That was not allowed. “Right!” Alicia wasn’t Jonathan Morris. She didn’t possess a thousand daggers. “Save us!” She trusted with the gold knife. The shoulder block threw her aside. The hunter lost his heart. Alicia hit the floor. “Be quiet you wench.” The werewolf snarled. “For that is your place.” Lypuston ripped at her jacket. “Get lost!” Torah crushed the skeletons. The Lycan howled. The slide kick broke her ribs. Alicia screamed. The fairy settled upon her chest.“Easy now.” She spread her wings upon her breasts. Alicia moaned. The ribs got restored. “Thank you.” Alicia shuddered. “You ain’t nothing then a hamburger.” The werewolf caught the fairy. “Paws off!” Rose cried. She emitted the gold dust. “Have no fear.” The Lycanthrope growled. “For I shall release you.” He smirked. “From your failed and useless life.” Alicia shuddered. “As my plastic chirurgic used to say; “If you have to go, then go with a smile.”” Game over. The Lycanthen burst out laughing. “This is madness.” Alicia felt numb. “Homing ball!” Torah came crashing into the conflict. She struck to release the fairy. “You little whore!” Lypuston snarled. “Watch out!” Alicia threw the axe. They got soaked with blood. “Right!” Alicia pierced his shoulder. The Lycan howled. Torah got the rings. “Little red riding hood!” The werewolf threw himself forward. “Preserve us!” The claws got buried within her torso. Torah screamed. “Release her!” Alicia felt chills down her spine. This was her fault. “Sure.” The werewolf smirked. “Though there is the happy hour.” He twisted round. Torah groaned. “You leave her alone!” Rose came like a bullet. The werewolf shook his fur. “Good God!” Torah put the cross into his mouth. “This is for the children!” The upper-cut closed his jaws. The smoke billowed from between his teeth. The werewolf staggered. The tonguegot boiled. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. She swallowed. This was disgusting. Torah fell on the ground. The fairy settled upon her chest. “Stay there!” Lypuston was hurt. There were no questions asked. “Do you want to kill me?” He snarled. “Come on.” Hecreatedthe fists. “I am ready.” Alicia licked her lips. She tightened her grip. Alicia pushed at the glasses. “If you dare.” The greater Lycanthrope had hunkered in front. “You slut.” He got ready to fight. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the mist. The werewolf laughed. The shoulder block resisted the effort. “Then so let it be!” Alicia cried. She struck the heart. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” The werewolf howled. Alicia used the gold knife.

The werewolf staggered. Rose got sick about it. “Rest in peace.” Alicia took him by surprise. His blood stained the area. The hunter made the sign of the cross. “God has forgiven all.” Alicia fell to her knees. “May He lead you into His Heaven.” She got trapped by the body. They got to help her. Torah arrived to push him aside. The Lycanthrope got burned to ashes. Rose changed her colour. The mystic crystal fell upon the floor. Torah retrieved it. “Mother!” The globe restored her life. Rose went in circles. She embraced herself. This was the end. Though the hunters didn’t share her optimism. “Then into Your hands I commit my spirit.” They spread out to cover for the tree killer. “That thy think?” The grim reaper beheld their lot. He might rise even the spirits of the dead. “Hark;thyMaster’s voice.” The fairy flickered. What was that about? Then she realized.“Open Hell’s gate.” The tree killer demanded. “Come forth, my servant.” He then rattled. “There arth a dead voice calling.” Rose screamed. She felt so cold. “Not you!” Rose felt like being torn apart. They got in trouble. “The idol.” The fairy went dull. “Mother.” Rose felt so helpless. “Behold: for this is the black witchcraft.” Torah breathed. The sorceress grew pale. “I know.” Rose chirped as the golem awoke.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The evil princess moved into a strange crouching position. Heinz frowned. “Kachina bomb!”The Shadow obscured his objective. “Thermic spirit!” The flare burned out. “Lightning paw!” Penny hit her between the shoulders. “You little slut!” Tennise struck with black electricity. “Bubble boom!” Heinz got to keep her occupied. “Golden chain!” They cried in unison. “Young fools!” The evil mistress got captured within the heavy chain of gold and silver. Tennise morphed into mist. “You cannot stop me!” She reappeared beside the sarcophagus. “We shall feast upon your blood.” Tennise reached to take them. Her blast shook the tomb. “This is his power.” She gloated. “I shall burn you to the core.” She caused another explosion. “I might even freeze you to the bone.” Tennise created a spreadshot of pointed icicles. “Exodus beam!” Heinz bit his lip. “Rosetta stones! The queen’s curse!” Penny was not afraid. “That is quite a mouthful.” Tennise created a force-field. “Wind mane!” He pushed her aside. “Do you want to kill me?” The princess licked her fangs. Heinz shuddered. “Cat eye beam!” Penny drenched her in light. “Good.” Tennise regained her strength. “Though not enough.” The vampire released a fireball. “Hand of Fate!” Heinz showcased with his own power.

The den, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The sheet of parchment fell to the floor. Torah kept quiet. The angel had achieved his goal. The giant stirred. “Homing ball!” She charged the spell. “Let it be.” Alicia picked the crucifix. She was the leader. “Alright.” The titan rattled. “This is for the children.” Torah got afraid. The golem then used the chains like a hook-shot. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. The golem reached the ceiling. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. She cast the smoke. The golem roared. Torah got to hide her ears. “Watch out!” Rose lit up. “This is a set-up!” That was obvious. Torah ran for cover. “Homing ball!” That was close. The golem hit the floor. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia survived. “In the name of the Lord!” The monster reached to squeeze her. “Please! Get behind!” Torah cried. “Mother of trees!” The fairy went in circles. “Sleep tight!” She released the star dust. “Get away from there!” Torah licked her lips. “Homing ball!” She charged the spell. The golem blocked the attack. “Good God!” Torah picked the cross. The titan threw the rocks. “You monster!” She escaped. “You won’t kill me!” Torah promised. “Homing ball!” The orb burst on impact. “Let it be!” Alicia threw the gold knife.”In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” They were not alone.

That was close. Alicia struggled for air. She almost got crushed by the monster. “Let it be.” The golem got concealed by the smoke. “Oh my God!” Torah got up. She was pale as a ghost. “Come with me if you want to live.” Torah bit her lip. “The steam might turn us to stone.” Alicia shuddered. “The legend of Belmont.” They got in motion. “Out of time.” Alicia sighed. She picked the stopwatch. The golem shook. They eye went red. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. That was the mist. “Thank you.” Alicia exhaled. The air felt much better. Torah shrugged. The monster reached to take her. The bats had arrived. “Into Your hands I commit my spirit!” Alicia threw the vial. The bottle got crushed against the floor. “Homing ball!” Torah turned. She got the ring smash. The skeletons spread out before the onslaught. Alicia touched the belt. “Let it be.” She threw the axe. “For great is the Lord!” The golem climbed even higher. “Preserve us from evil.” He escaped the attack. Alicia presented the crucifix. She would hunt. Alicia got left alone. She looked about. Torah got surrounded by the undead. “Get behind!” The skeletons might choke her. “”Homing ball!” She cast the triple shot. “Mother of trees!” Rose pierced the skull. “The Lord is with you.” Alicia exhaled. She still held His image.“Then stronger we are!” Alicia had become the eye of the storm. “In the name of the Lord!” She hoped that Juste might be proud. The crosses were like a shield. The beam struck down. The golem hid the eye. Alicia replaced the glasses. The monster might crush her. “Let it be.” The dead left the gems. Alicia picked a lot. They restored her energy. The golem hit the floor. Alicia escaped. “Let it be!” She threw the cross like a boomerang. The golem was too quick. He couldn’t stop. Alicia retained the weapon. The monster kept on coming. “Rest in peace!” Alicia created the enflamed blast. “Homing ball!” Torah had arrived. The girl saved her life. “Good work!” The monster fell from the ceiling. “Come on!” Torah beckoned. “Let us fight!” Alicia used the laurels. The girl got cut by the fragments. “His magic might revive itself!” Rose settled upon her shoulder. “Okay.” Torah inhaled. “Get away!” Alicia cried. “I got you!” The skeletons had moved to choke her. “Leave us alone!” Torah made a face. “You devils!” The girl presented her cross. “Then so let it be.” Alicia would pray for her soul. “Be gone.” She would hunt. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Though first they got to conquer. Alicia shuddered. “Preserve us from the Dark!” Death beheld the combat. The golem roared. The hook pulled him upright. Alicia got the crucifix. The golem made the rocks to fall down. She got in trouble. Alicia ran for cover. The monster swung to catch her. “Stronger we are!” Alicia then made it to rain with holy water. The golem looked like hit by an acid downpour. She sighed. “Watch out!” Rose came to warn her. The monster released more steam. “Preserve us!” Alicia almost lost her glasses. That was fine. “Marcia enchanted them for me.” The fairy went dim. “Stronger we are!” Alicia almost wished she got the light in her blood. Then she might save her friends. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia put that aside. “Get away.” They were everybody like the clay in the potter’s hands. The skeletons had arrived. “Perfect.” The trio might trap her. “Then so let it be.” Alicia gripped her sword. “God of compassion.” She got to focus. This wasn’t right. “The Lord has forgiven all.” The dead left gems behind. “Though you I can never forgive.” The angelapproached. “Vampire hunter.” He breathed. “Do thy mourn a vampire’s death?” Alicia became so angry. The golem dashed to break her. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” She made the sign of the cross. “Then so let it be!” Alicia hurled the three vials. The monster recoiled. The liquid burst on fire. “Good Lord!” The eye glazed over. “Homing ball!” Torah released her magic. The dead got shot to pieces. “Save us!” The golem attacked.The figures broke on impact. Alicia got cut by the splinters. “Everybody hurts.” Alicia groaned. She cast that aside. Alicia knew she looked like a mess. Her pure cream skin got streaked with blood. Alicia pulled up the glasses. “Please!Save us!” The monster released a heavy steam. Alicia ran away. “Leave me!” She felt like a coward. Never mind that now. Alicia used the stopwatch. The golem stopped. That wouldn’t last. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the mist. The spell froze the dead. “Then you are the clever girl.” The bats got shattered against the floor. “Good God!” She got hit by the icicles. “Let it be!” The golem reached to squeeze her. “Then stronger we are!” Alicia would be a vampire hunter. She consolidated the blood force to might create the double jump. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia flouted in the air. The holy cross forced him to raise both arms. Aliciaknew he would. She got put upon the floor. That was alright. Alicia threw the axes. The golem got hurt. “Alright.” He began to crack. Alicia reached for the crucifix. Then the breather got cut short. The bats squeaked. They settled upon her body. “Eat me you monsters!” Rose was so brave. She made herself into a target. “You leave her alone!” She didn’t deserve this. No one did. Alicia then thought of Sara Trantoul. The golem threw the rocks. She got to be more careful. The fairy cast the star dust. “Homing ball!” Torah got cornered by the skeletons. “Come on!” She picked the ring smash. “Then so let it be!” Alicia took the gems. Death opened the book. “Mother of trees!” They got to prevent his actions. “Save us from evil!” Alicia made a glide. She got beneath the monster. The golem touched the ceiling. Alicia sighed. “Rest in peace!” The skeleton might choke her. She got the sword. Alicia broke both hands. He staggered. “Then I forgive you.” Alicia stamped him. The bones collapsed into a heap. She took the gem. They restored herenergy.That was not enough. Alicia kept bleeding. She touched the laurels. “Homing ball!” Torah boiled the bats. “Fine.” Alicia threw the cross. The golem shook. “Then so let it be!” Alicia got on top. That was right. The daggers got buried within the eye.

The pages flipped. Rose dimmed her light. The tree killer was that cold. “Accursed pest.” Death beheld her through empty sockets. The fairy felt oppressed. “Sweet Mother of trees!” The golem hit the floor. “You lost.” Rose felt much better. The challenge was built on hope. The vampire hunter impaled the eye. “Thou arth a fool.” The killer hissed. “Homing ball!” Her golden orb then exploded on impact. “All who oppose the prince of Darkness must die.” The idol cracked from side to side. “The forest is the source of life.” The heart got exposed. “Everything dies.” The grim reaper rasped. “In time, even the starsburn out .” Rose blinked. . So let it be. “For as long as we care.” The light beyond the forest would shine even brighter. She believed. “The promises cannot break.” She got inspired. “Do thy think thee arth a sage?” Death had conjured a flurry of sickles. “I am a fairy.” Rose dodged the barrage. “I will fight, like my mother.” The golem blocked the effort. Death began to chant. “You forest killer!” The grim reaper stopped to conjure the sickles. “In the name of Michael the arch angel!” Alicia then made it to rain with holy water. The golem shook. “Homing ball!” Torah fired. Her plasma went home. The eye exploded. “Curse thee Belmont.” Death resumed his ritual.

Dora wood, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The princess staggered. Penny took the crest. “Angel rod!” Tennise hid behind the force-field. “Excalibur!” The shining sword broke the shield. “I have you now!” Tennise bit him. “Antidote!” Heinz pushed her aside. “Gate of Destiny!” Penny exhaled. That was incredible. He might banish her. “No!” She got the strength of twenty men. “You cannot defeat me!”

Heinz made no remark. “Seven heavens!” He called. “Testament!” Her eyes began to burn. The Shadow rising became a barrier. “Help us!” Penny gave her heart. “Heaven’s charm!” The light enforced the approach. “Celestial arrow!” What was that? Penny shook her head. “Let it be.” The Darkness broke. “Leave me alone!” The whispering voices told her to submit. She wouldn’t listen. “No! Do not forsake me!” Tennise collapsed with her arms spread out. The black hole appeared where her heart should be. “Rest in peace.” Heinz closed her eyes. “The curse is broken.” Penny bent beside him. They watched as Tennise crumbled into ashes. She got to rest. “The Lord is with you.” Penny made the sign of the cross. “We have to leave.” Heinz touched her shoulder. “The cave is unstable.” Penny figured. She got up. “Save us.” She breathed. The floor began to shake. “Come with me!” Heinz ran for the exit.

The den, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The explosion hit the den. Torah survived. That was close. The crystal ball rolled on the floor. She picked the price. The light was too bright. Torah looked aside. She sighed. “Thank God.” Torah got restored. “The fight is over.” Alicia appeared in front. “Here, let me help you up.” She bent upon her knees. “What happened?” Torah got confused. That was not important. Torah dropped the subject. She got to inspect the outcome. “Okay.” The golem lay in pieces. “Alright.” She exhaled. The air felt so much better. “He hasn’t forsaken us.” Torah breathed. The dead got put to rest. “Homing ball!” Torah charged the spell. “So, it would be like this, for the rest of the way.” Death handled the scythe. “Leave us.” Alicia presented the crucifix. Death was quiet. Torah ran for cover. The grim reaper hurled a blue skull. “Stronger we are!” Alicia doused him with holy water. “In the name of the Lord!” This had to be enough. “Homing ball!” Torah gathered up. They couldn’t defeat him. Alicia picked another vial. “Forest’s death!” Rose burned like the sun. “What the heck?” The grim reaper was gone. Torah blinked. “What?” She felt at a loss. “I don’t get it.” She frowned. “He got us in a box.” Never the less, Death had left the dome. “We are in the shadow of the castle.” Alicia told.

This couldn’t be good. Alicia shuddered. “Prepare.” Torah sent her a look. “Tell me about it.” Alicia pulled on her braid. “To hunt the night.” She got disturbed. “The wipers!” Rose cried.The water rippled and dripped. “Right.” Alicia pushed up the glasses. “Death is to blame.” This was the final test. They were the Orhphic wipers. Alicia felt the chills down her spine. “Preserve us.” The monsters might tear them to pieces. How did Simon defeat the serpents? That happened in 1688. The vampire hunter told the story in his chronicle. She put that aside. This was war. They got to find their own way. “Let itbe!” She made a slide above the den. The green wiper got interested. “Look out!” Torah cried. The red serpent went to fry her. “Good Lord!” Alicia threw the vial. The holy water splashed on impact. “Homing ball!” Torah cried. The wiper shook the head. He got hurt. “Save us!” Alicia got beneath the breath. The flames might break the area. “Alright!” Torah slid beneath the fireballs. “Homing ball!” She hit him between the eyes. “Watch out!” Rose burned like the sun. The fishmen arrived. “Good God!” Torah went pale. “Homing ball!” She cast the triple shot. “Then so let it be!” Alicia got the heart of fire. She became the eye of the storm. Alicia threw a circle of axes. They got buried within the monsters. They shrieked. The blood was like acid. She bit her lip. The fishmen came from beneath the pond. “Homing ball!” Torah got busy. She got in trouble. The girl hid behind her cross. The fireballs burned on impact. Torah got safe. That was fine. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” The wipers turned around. They spewed the liquid. Alicia threw her cross like a boomerang. That got buried within the red wiper. “Preserve us!” The monster emitted the fireballs. Alicia ran for cover. The fishmen gathered up. “Get away!” Alicia threw the daggers. The group got impaled. She sighed. The gems restored her energy. The green wiper breathed the heavy flames. Alicia made a back-flip. That was not enough. The poison liquid went like a river. “You leave her alone!” Alicia blinked. “Homing ball!” Torah fired. She hit the red serpent. The wiper turned about. “Right!” Torah threw the smash. She bled the serpent. That was impressive. Alicia ran to aid her. The fishmen approached. Torah got hit. “So let it be!” Alicia threw a flurry of crosses. The school got cut to pieces. That was not important. “Please.” Alicia knelt by her friend. The fairy fluttered above. “Preserve us from evil.” She used the laurels. Torah blinked. She got restored. “Get away!” Rose cried. The Orhphic wipers went for the kill. They breathed flames or spat fireballs. “Sanctuary!” Alicia hid behind the stone shield. That kept the air out. They got to breathe. Alicia let down. She then ran for it. The red wiper hit the ground. “Good Lord in Heaven!” The shock wave summoned the fishmen. “Mother of trees!” The fairy lit up. “Sleep tight!” She cast the star dust. Alicia sighed. That gave the upper hand. At least against the fishmen. “Stronger we are!” Alicia tightened her grip upon the broad sword. “In the name of the Lord!” She released the flame blast. The red serpent fell on the floor. “Look out!” Torah screamed. She cast the triple shot. The green wiper got beneath. Alicia made it to rain with holy water. The Orhphic wipers got burned by the downpour. They roared. The fishmen pulled her aside. Alicia got to escape. She stamped with the crucifix. The monsters released her. “Come on!” Torah was alone. “Homing ball!” She cast the smoke. The green wiper got captured in frost. “Nice work.” Alicia admired. The red serpent emitted the fireballs. Torah made a back dash. She escaped. The serpent smashed against the surface. That broke the ice. “Preserve us.” Alicia breathed. The fishmen showed up again. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” They fought back-to-back. “Black forest!” Rose flickered. The wipers tried to eat them. “Homing ball!” The smoke kept them behind. “Glory be You.” Alicia retrieved the jewels. “Our Father in Heaven.” They restored her energy. That was nice. The wiper approached. “Then so let it be!” Alicia threw the axe. Her family were the heir to the house of Belmont. The weapon broke on impact. The frost drew more blood. The serpent hissed. “Preserve me!” The flames might kill her. Alicia ran to escape. “Homing ball!” Torah blocked the fireballs. She threw the smash. That got stuck in the red serpent. The blood was like acid. “Good Lord.” Alicia licked her lips. That was clever. Torah got away. The serpent hit the floor. “Look out!” The green serpent gathered up. The poison went like a river. Alicia made a back-flip. “Ouch.” She hit against the pillar. Alicia shook her head. The wiper went for the kill. “Homing ball!” Torah somehow retrieved her weapons. She appeared in front. Alicia got up. “Get behind!” The wipers beheld them through evil eyes. “Right.” Torah hid behind the cross. “You devils.” The fishman stepped from behind the columns. He stole the symbol. The wipers attacked. “Preserve us from evil!” Alicia threw the axe. She hit the red serpent. “Then stronger we are!” Her weapon became buried between the eyes. “In the name of the Lord!” Alicia staggered. The wiper spat bloody gale and fire. Alicia got up. The serpent came to crush her. “Save me!” She held the sword in front. The Orhphic wiper impaled itself upon her blade. “So let it be!” Alicia made a back-dash. She had impaled the brain. The monster then rotted before her eyes. She vomited. Alicia couldn’t help it. The huge skeleton fell into the water. “Homing ball!” The vampire hunt was far from over. The green serpent got Torah pressed against the pillars. “In the name of Michael the Arch Angel!” Alicia threw the vial. The glass broke on impact. The Orhphic wiper got bathed in the flames. She sighed. The monster got hurt. “Good Lord!” Alicia made the sign of the cross. The blood was like the boiling acid. Alicia had to escape. “Homing ball!” Torah cast the spell. She hit the wiper. The head exploded. Then it was over. “Glory be You!” Alicia picked the orb. “Our Father in Heaven!” The crystal restored her life.

The wind was picking up. Rose felt the change. “The curse is broken.” The fairy proclaimed. “The weather is restored.” They beheld the countryside. “So it might appear.” Torah exhaled. “That rests with the Lord.” Alicia bit her lip. “Darkness never dies.” Torahcleared her voice. “Do you feel it?” She asked. “The source of evil.” Rose flickered. She knew it was true. Alicia replaced the glasses. “We are in trouble.” Rosesighed. The fairyshared their emotions. “The castle in the forest.” The hunters looked ahead. “We must tell the others.” Rose lit up. The hunters had decided. “Alright.” Torah retrieved the ring smash. She prepared to hunt. “No problem.” Alicia muttered. “You sound like Jonathan Morris.” Torah teased. “I guess.” Alicia shrugged. “Let us be gone.” Rose got impatient. “Good God!” Torah exclaimed. “Behold!” They turned about. “That which happened to the statues.” Rose lit up like the sun. The people got released from the spell. “Glory be You.” Alicia might re-sheath her sword. “Our Father in Heaven.” She made the sign of the cross. “Come with me.” Rose was eager. “Let me show you.” Torah hid her mouth. “Right.” Rose got to blush. “That was transparent.” Alicia smiled. The fairy went in circles. “Watch out!” The hunter collapsed into a heap.

St. Nicolai’s church, village of Doina. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

This had become a battle. Benjamin felt at a loss. “May the Lord preserve us.” He breathed. The necromancer was safe behind the circle. “Surrender to your fear.” The voices laughed. The dark wizard sacrificed his blood for this ritual. The group of five had gathered to fight. The warlock touched the snow. He sobbed. The necromancer called upon the killer zombies. “Fire, frost, thunder, wind and water.” Benjamin recited. “Thenyou shall watch them perish.” His friends got ambushed by the dead. “You leave me alone.” He got to exorcise the voices. “Be gone from me Satan.” Benjamin had retrieved the rosary. “For this is the house of God.” The boy knelt down before the shrine of St. Maria. “Hear me.” Benjamin might believe again. He touched the holy water. “In the name of the Father, the Son and of the holy Ghost.” Benjamin made the sign of the cross. “Glory be You.” The liquid lit up. The voices shrieked. “Our father in Heaven.” They left him alone in the presence of God. Benjamin exhaled. “Thank You.” He felt so tired. This was not a respite. He prayed for guidance. He was a seer. Benjamin got to observe. He beheld his friends. “Please, preserve them from the evil One.” He whispered. They got surrounded by the dead. “Let it be.” Benjamin would not be afraid.

The den, Ruvas forest. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The wind blew cold through the den. Heinrich was awake. “I am here.” He knew that voice. “The curse is broken.” He knelt to pick the sword. That lay upon the floor. “Dark night.” Heinrich brushed at the snow. “Good Lord!” “This wasn’t his weapon. Never mind that now.He would fight.” Then we are together again.” Patrick smirked. “The hunters for the night.” The man-beast got his gun. That was right. They got to hunt. Heinrich went into the snow. “The weather is restored.” The knight remarked. Heinrich shrugged. He got work to do. “Show yourself.” He almost forgot about the cold. “You cannot hide.” He pulled on thecoat. “I know you are here.” Heinrich kept the backpack. “Look.” Patrick got ahead. “Save us!” Heinrich picked the crucifix. The fight was over. “She is a fairy.” The hunter made no sign. He recognised on sight. She floated above the girl. “She got hurt.” Thefairy tried to comfort. “I know.” The lady lay sprawled on the ground. “Preserve us.” Patrick buckled up his jacket. “Get a grip.” Heinrich made the sign of the cross. “What has happened?” He bent to help. “This is impossible.” His hair stood on end. “Alicia.” He reached to shake her. “Leave her.” The school girl got in front.“Who are you?” Heinrich got to push her aside.

This was the goal. Patrick had come a long way to find her. “Relax.” Heinrich was too rash. “My name is Torah Fernandez.” The knight acknowledged. “Nice to meet you.” He offered. The 12-year-old wore a fur-coated poncho and a Russian cap above her school girl uniform. “This is Rose the fairy.” The man-beast smirked. “Hi there.” The fay was shy. “Okay.” Heinrich cut the introduction. “What do you suggest?” Torah brushed at her dark blonde hair. “She has to live.” Heinrich loved his cousin. “Rest assure big guy.” Torah picked her pockets. “There might still be a way.” She found the item. “Those are the laurels.” Patrick frowned. The knight knew enough Belmont lore to recognise the treasure. “You know about them?” The kid looked surprised. Patrick winked. “Of course I do.” The man-beast became serious. “To heal the sick.” Torah lay them on the hunter’s chest. “They belong to the Belmont clan.” She explained. “Then so let it be.” Heinrich knelt in prayer. “Though please, let her live.” Torah looked up into his face. “The blood of the hunter.” She told. “For this you have to do.” That was no problem. “Come on.” Patrick encouraged. “You are a Belmont.” Heinrich sighed. The constant teasing had made him unsure. “Alright.” Heinrich put a hand upon the laurels.

Dabi’s path, Warakiya. The 19^th. Of December 2098 A.D.

The Necronomicon book lay open upon the alter. Drolta Tsuentez kept on turning the pages. She then found what they required. “This spell is that common.” The undead witch might tell. “The samples grant me the power.” The Belmont clan was coming. Drolta wished to know. That was out of the question. “Continue then.” The apprentice witch had gathered the pieces. Shegot ready. “Open Hell’s gate.” She demanded. “Do it now.” Thiswasthefinal ritual. Drolta would not accept a failure. “The Master’s voice.” This was the bestowed Shadow. “Though Remember the danger.” They might succumb to the Dark. The witchknew the price. Drolta was not a fool. She feared the might of the underworld. “Let it begin.” She breathed. “Let it be.” She had no choice. “Let the purchase come forth.” Drolta spoke the language. That was another gift. The witch exposed her fangs. The crimson countess gained her loyalty. “I summon thee.” Drolta beckoned. “The embodiment of suffering.” She was there in 1917. Though that was then. This was now. “Count Dracula.” This time they would not be stopped. For this was secret. This was safe. Drolta had found an alternative. She would be rewarded. “The prince of Darkness.” Drolta wept bloody tears. For his sake, she would do anything.

(A.N: The text contains much action. I still hoped you enjoyed. Because of the multi-title versions of the Dracula X title, I made up the story of Richter’s journal fragments. Sort of like the legend about Simon Belmont and his adventure of 1688. The storyis coming together. The final battle is about to begin. You have to wait. Until then, have a nice time.)
