Castlevania Lost Symphony Ch. 1-4 (Prologue) *Finished*

[AlucardX60]

I was working on a game called Castlevania Lost Symphony using many different things, first I tried RPG Maker 2, and upgraded to 3, and am currently working on it with RPG Maker VX, But I wanted to get a feel for it first because i wanted this game to be epic, so I decided to make 2 games before I even thought about finishing it. The first one I'm working on is halted because i'm waiting for feedback, and I haven't even thought about the second one. So I decided to adapt this into story form. This doesn't mean I won't ever finish either of them, quiet the contrary, but wanted to get some opinions on it too.Plus I can't upload the Game file here. So if you like this maybe I'll adapt the other one.

Now that the backstory to this is over, I shall commence story.

Adrian's Prologue

Adrian Farenheights Tepes had just stopped his father from enslaving the planet and had escaped his crumbling castle.
While he was in the woods making his way back home, he noticed something fallowing him and started to pick up the pace, but it was no use, whatever it was just started going faster.
He pulled his sword and turned around, but there was nothing there. He sheathed it and turned around to continue, only to find it was right in front of him.
A large electric orb had enveloped him and then it disappeared...

Chapter 1: Adrian's Story

Today was like every other day, I woke up had my breakfast and went to the woods to hunt for dinner after I had caught enough game for the day, I gave it to my mom so she could start cooking dinner, as she did that I went to the creek with my friends. "Hey Victor, do you think that we will ever get out of here and explore the world?" My friend, Rynold, asked "We'd probably sooner defeat the 'Thing'" I replied with anger in my eyes. "You're still mad about what he did to your father, aren't you?" My friend had replied. We were under rule of an evil tyrant, Vlad "The impaler", that some believe wasn't even human. But after seeing what he has done, I wouldn't be to surprised if they were right.

Adrian awoke to the sound of an elderly man's voice. He asked if he was okay, to which Adrian replied "I seem to be fine, but where am I?"
"You’re in Shur sonny." said the old man puzzled, Shur may not have been the most popular place, but it certainly wasn't off the map yet. "Where are you from?"
"My origins are something I don't like to talk about." Adrian replied as he started to look around. He was in the midst of the little village, some of the buildings had bricks chipped, or missing all together, but otherwise it was in decent shape. He then examined himself, he noticed that his chest plate, helmet, sword, shield, and all of his accessories where missing. Not only that, but he had lost all of his extra strength and skills he had seemingly moments ago, it was like something came and just ripped them out. "Are you looking for something?" the old man asked still puzzled. "My equipment is missing, and so is my gold for that matter." Adrian said as he snapped back to the old man.

"I guess someone must have stolen them while you were out." said the old man now wandering what he would do now. "You were out for a few days since I found you. What will you do?" "First I need to find a place to stay. Is there anywhere here where I can make a shelter?" He said "Oh no sonny, you can't build a reasonable shelter in time, it will be dark soon. Why don't you stay with me for a while?" the old man said with a look of concern for his new found friend. "Alright." He said, knowing that this simple act of kindness well eventually lead to trouble for the man.

Sypha's Prologue

Sypha Belenades had always dreamed of destroying the Tyrant who had taken over her homeland. Today she was finally ready, she gathered the supplies she needed and headed towards the ominous castle.
After taking out most of the guards in the woods she noticed something didn't feel right, there was a powerful magic force heading her way. She started to build up her energy, it got closer, and closer till it reached her, but she couldn't see it. Knowing that if it got any closer it would be to late she fired a blast in that general direction.
She heard the scream of a dying Oroboros, content that she destroyed the force Sypha continued only to find it right in front of her, it enveloped her and disappeared.

Chapter 2 Sypha's Story

"The Mayor seems to be helping another wandering traveler." My Mom exclaimed "I don't know why, after what happened the last time." "You mean the last five times." My I corrected. We were having dinner like always, my Mom always liked to inform me and my brother of the goings on in the village at the time, maybe she wanted me to learn from it and become the mayor or something, or she was trying to get my mind off of that fiend. Either way killing is all I’ve wanted to do... that’s all my father taught me to do; before he was killed by that fiend they call our ruler. "Maybe you should keep an eye on him, you know, to save the Mayor some trouble later on." 'That’s not a bad idea' I thought, if he is a good fight then I might learn a thing or two if I end up fighting him, and if I win the mayor might reward me. If I lose however, what happens next is up to him; still I think it's worth it.

Sypha woke up in the woods, the first thing she noticed was the signs of smoke that told there was a village nearby, but she also noticed that her magic energy was gone, and so was all of her equipment. So she went towards the village. Once she arrived, she noticed that it was a port town called Eyur, the building where no more than two stories tall, the streets where clean, and there where many stands with people selling fish of every kind. As for homes it seemed as though most of the buildings where residential, with a weapon shop, pub, and an armor shop here and there. By now she was in the square, there was a statue of a man probably the Mayor of the city. It was starting to get dark and she needed to find a place to stay. So she headed to the nearest Inn and stayed there for the night.

When she awoke she started to look for clues as to how she got there, Logically she started at the places where she awoke in the woods, When she had returned Sypha noticed that there were burn marks in the grass that weren't there before, as she examined them she noticed that they were shaped like something, but she couldn't tell what it was so she levitated up just high enough to see that it was a arrow that pointed west and a name, most likely a city, the name was Shur. Sypha headed west till she reached a small village. As she made her way through she heard the clash of metal, when she got to the square she saw that it was a fight, a young man, from the way he fought she could tell he was probably a hunter, and the other, which was winning, fought with much more skill then the other, even though his weapon and equipment was inferior.

Soma's Prologue
Four months ago, Soma Cruz had cut off the chaos that was flowing through Dracula's castle, thus stopping himself from becoming the Dark Lord. Since then he had started going back to school, and all was normal.
He was walking Mina home one night when he felt an energy following them. He was close to her house so he didn't tell her about it, he didn't want her to worry. Soma dropped her off and walked around the corner before he started running. He had almost made it to the church that Genya worked when the energy caught up to him, enveloped him and disappeared.

Chapter 3 Soma's story

"Victor, what are you doing here?" He said "You know him?" questioned the stranger "This is Victor, he's one of the villagers here, I'm sorry I haven't introduced you two yet, Victor this is Adrian, Adrian this is Victor." Earl replied "He was helping me lift my bookcase back up, I really need to get that fixed, and then he was going to help make dinner." "So that would explain the knife." I said "And when you jumped me I thought you were here to assassinate the Mayor." Adrian said "And that would explain you attacking me." I replied "Okay, now that we have this all cleared up, how about you come in and have dinner with us? We made tomato soup." The Mayor asked "I would but my Mom is really strict about me getting home on time." I had replied "Okay, well I guess you'd better run a long then." The Mayor told me.

Soma awoke next to a river, with the water splashing up against his face. As he looked around he noticed several people staring at him, they were speaking English. A dialog he only understood due to the power of Dominance. They had probably never seen a Asian man, much less a Japanese one. He asked one of the men "Where am I, and how did I get here?" the man replied "We were fishing in the Danube River when we saw you floating in the water; We fished you out and dragged you here." Then remembering something the man said "There was a rather odd fellow here that told us that we would find a strange man floating in the river, and to tell you to go to Shur." Soma asked "Which way do I need to go to get there?" The man pointed west. With his heading he headed off. Am I really that strange? Soma thought to himself. And that man they were talking about, who is he? Soma arrived in Shur a few days later. He was tired and needed a good rest, so he sold his watch to stay in the Inn for a night.

Soma was awakened in the middle of the night by shouting near a building that seemed much nicer then the other, The Mayors house maybe. Soma thought. There were several armed men surrounding the building. "Come on out Vlad!" the leader of the men shouted. This surprised Soma, as he was sure he that Vlad was no more. After a few more similar taunts a man with white hair wearing black boots, pants, and jacket, with a cloak that was black on the outside, and bright red on the inside, walked out unarmed. "What is the meaning of this?" asked the stranger "We're careful of 'Alucard's' ever since Vlad destroyed an entire village under that name." the leader replied. "I assure you that if I was my father, then you'd all be dead by now." "See!? This man is the Tyrant's son, I say we burn him at the stake as an example!" the mans suggestion was met with a load cheering. "What be the meaning of all this ruckus?" asked an old man that had come from the inside the aforementioned house. This surprised everyone "You're helping this man Mayor Earl?" asked the leader "No! That vampire has turned him, I say we burn them both!" that man's suggestion was shockingly met with a fire ball at his feet. Needless to say, Soma was even more surprised by this. A woman walked out from an alleyway created by the building Soma was in and the building to his right. "What sorcery be this witch?" Asked the leader. "That was a fire spell, and if you don't release them then the next one will be a lot closer to your face!" the man in black turned to see a woman approaching. "Sypha!? I thought you were dead." said the man in black "Do I know you, vampire?" asked Sypha with a puzzled look "So then my theory is correct-" this statement was cut short as the leader shouts "You can have your reunion as you burn at the stake! Men, seize them!"

Chapter 4 It All Comes Together

The men moved in to attack the Men and Sypha, Alucard pulled out a knife that he hid in his sleeve and put a paralyzing cut on the first two men to get to him while Sypha used her magic to create a fire, and and ice sword, she wasn't kind enough to paralyze them as Alucard did, she landed a death blow with every strike. Soma knew that they were probably in the right and decided to help, he lept from his second story window and landed on two men that were behind Sypha, two men stabbed at him with there spears but he back flipped on to the wall and lept over them. "Earl get back inside!" Alucard commanded the mayor has he paralyzed another man, "Sypha get in here too, and bring that man t-" he had do stop there to cut an arrow in half... in midair. Sypha and Soma slowly made there way to the house, once inside Alucard and Soma barracked the doors and windows while Sypha held the men off. "Is there any way out of here Earl?" Asked Alucard, "Um, there is a secret escape route in the basement, I had it built in case Vlad attacked us." Replied the mayor "Perfect, lets go!" commanded Alucard.

The long tunnel was damp, and dark. As they made there way through "You said you knew me vampire! How?" Sypha asked Alucard "Well I had a theory as to where I was, you confirmed it. I'm guessing that you were setting out to kill a tyrant when you were transported here, right?" Alucard asked "Yeah, so what of it?" Sypha replied "Because you where successful. You teamed up with a Vampire hunter, Trevor Belmont, a thief held captive by Vlad, and me." Alucard answered "And you boy, whats your story?" Alucard asked Soma "I was mysteriously transported here, just like you guys. I come from Japan in the year 2035." Soma explained. By that time they had reached the end of the tunnel, they where in the forest on the outskirts of the village.

"I knew you'd come here." Spoke a voice, then Victor stepped out from behind a tree, he was carrying a small sword, and a bow and quiver on his back. "You again, I thought we settled things earlier." Alucard said to the boy "We did, but after I heard you were Vlad's son I couldn't resist a rematch, no interferences this time, just you and me." "I see, you want to fight my father and want to fight me as a test, for surely if you can defeat me you can defeat my father. Is that it?" Alucard asked "Because if it is, then your mistaken, for my father's power is much greater then my own. But if your stubborn enough to still want to fight, then a fight you shall get." Alucard continued,
and then the battle commenced. Victor jumped up and slashed downward with his sword, but Alucard dodged to the left, grabbed him and hurled him against a tree. He dashed forward with a punch that Victor narrowly avoided. He back flipped onto a branch and continued up the tree, he fired a arrow at Alucard but he back dashed out of the way "You underestimate me boy!" Alucard said as fired some fire balls towards Victors direction, one hit him and he fell from tree, Alucard jumped up and grabbed him by the neck and slammed on he ground. He tightened his grip choking the boy, "STOP!!! This is madness, release him Alucard!" the mayor interrupted. 'No. THIS. IS. SPARTAAAAAAAA!!!' Soma laughed as he thought of the popular line from the old movie.

Alucard released his grip ignoring Soma "It would be better for me to end his life now, otherwise he would probably stupidly go to Vlad’s castle anyway, and in Vlad’s castle, deaths aren't short." Alucard countered "You don't understand Alucard, the tunnel wasn't built just for me, it was mainly to keep him safe." Earl replied "Wait you don't mean! This boy, is a Belmont!" Alucard replied shocked, but Alucard wasn't the only one, Sypha and Soma were even more shocked. "Yes he is a decedent of Leon Belmont, the one that swore that he and his entire family would hunt the vampires when they were first brought into this world. This boy, is the only one who can stop Vlad."The Mayor exclaimed "If he is a Belmont, then he is going to need a lot of training before he can fight my father." Alucard stated "I can do nothing to help the boy, that is why I was waiting for the perfect man to train him, Alucard, Sypha, Soma, I believe that's why you are here. I wish for you to train him to fight Vlad. He is our only hope." the Mayor requested "Sure I guess I'll help Obi-wan over there." Soma was the first to take the job "An enemy of my enemy, is my friend." Sypha replied "If it's my duty to help continue the blood line, then I will gladly except it." Alucard answered.

It was then that our team was assembled, and it was there, that our journey began.
