Thunder cracked over the hills and roars echoed throughout the forest. There, the land known as "Castlevania" had appeared, and by the miunte it started to grow darker. This town was peaceful during the day, very little happened aside from the usual...but when the night falls...let's just say it puts good use to the saying "Beware of the things that go bump in the night." Unlike silly little childish fears and stories of the boogey man, here, the boogey man is INDEED real. As night grew closer, the villagers of the town worked harder and faster, hoping to accomplish what they wished to accomplish in that day during the light hours, as they would have no choice but to stop and run for shelter and lock the doors, or die trophetize, be drug into the deep, dark woods, and never be seen again.

 For children, this place was no playground. But for this young red head, it was a walk in the park. Adell had come into the town while just arriving in This World. "Huh, not much different from back home." He then looked around himself, he came here with Rozalin however... "Rozalin? Rozalin!" She was nowhere to be found. "...Damn, guess we got lost." He sighed, in disappointment. But then pulled himself together quickly. "Well, all the more reason to look harder." With that in mind, Adell began his search. |

The villagers freaked out when they heard Adell yelling. An old man limped over to him and said harshly, yet quietly, "WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE BUB!?" He poked his walking stick at his shins, "It's near sundown, they'll be coming soon!"
A woman walked over and patted him on the back, "Grandpa, I...don't think I remember this boy...you think he's found a way in the village?"
The old man coughed, "Well if so, he picked the wrong place to vacation, we're trying to get out of the god forsaken place ourselves! The damned beasts hold us here, there are too many for us to attack. Our men would never survive."
The woman rubbed her head nervously, "Grandpa, I think you better get inside, you need your rest and your medication...and night is approaching soon."
The old man scoffed, "HA! I'm gonna question this stupid young wugwort first!" He then poked his stick at Adell, "Who are you? and how did you get here without dying?"

Not that Adell minded the yelling, the poking however was a little irritating. But the boy learned to cope with these things. "Dangerous huh? Guess the scary decor isn't just for show." Adell didn't remember seeing monsters on his way in, he was portaled incredibly close to this town. "Alright, my name's Adell from Veldime. I didn't seem to see any monsters on my way in. Now I got a question for you." He hoped to get information out of the old man. "Did you see a short screaming kid with bunny eared hair? Or a blond woman with a handgun and a pair of big....eyes?" Adell blushed when he thought about those...eyes. |

The old man shook his head in confusion, "....Veldime? Where's that? And I don't know who on earth you're talking about youngster...Bunny eared hair? odd hair...odd hair...could you mean someone from the 'Tepe' residence?"
Villagers shivered and were a bit scared at the mention of the last name Tepe.
The old man growled, "If you are, then you don't know what you're up against boy. THAT CASTLE-" The man pointed to the Castle which rested up on a hill behind the forest, "Is the Tepe residence. And what lies inside is what curses this damned land. If you're looking for what's in THAT castle, the great demon himself, then I can't help you, never saw the place myself..." the man snarled as he limped off toward the house, trying to get away from the boy as fast as he could.
The woman bit her lower lip and gave a worried expression toward Adell. Then she whispered, "...come back to our house later when grandpa's settled down, we can fill you in if you're going to that dreaded place."

Adell just listened to the old man's ranting, and simply blinked in confusion. His eyes were drawn to the castle he was just pointed to. Then back to the woman. "Oh, thanks ma'am." Adell was a bit curious, this all might sound like a certain demon's style. Of course he had a lack of evidence, and then there was this "Tepe"... |

A young boy, the farmer's son, went up to Adell with amazement. "Are you really going to the Castle sir? And at this hour?" The boy was in desperate need of a hero obviously since all of the Belmonts have dissapeared, he looked into the red haired man's eyes with excitement.

For children, this place was no playground, and a pair of small figures gradually hiked through the dark forest, walking with their wobbly knees shaking like weak tables. "Ooohhh...I don't like this place." "I do hope we are somewhere in one of the space colony's dome environment." "I doubt it. I really doubt it."  Climbing up to a small rock, a young little girl tried to take a good look over the canopy below the cliff she was on. This brown-haired girl wore pink overalls and purple shoes. "Hmm ... Brass, look! I see some lights in those trees! Civilization, finally!"  Approaching behind the rock the girl stood came a small female-like robot. With a blue helmet with pink 'ribbon', this robot's armor is designed to look like a Japanese school-girl uniform. "Miss Erika, I also see a very strange castle close by." Turning to her right, Erika cringed at the sight of the giant castle. While it was too far from where she is, the castle was so big, it looked so close. And the facility looked too much like something out of a horror movie. "Ohhh...I don't like that place, Brass. It looks like something Dracula lives." "But Miss Erika, you said that if you ever met Dracula, you get some pictures and try to get a interview with him." "Oh yeah!" ^^ |

The red haired man looked down at the child in front of him. "Hmm?" Then he knelled down to his level. "Well I think a friend of mine might be in there, so yeah probably." Odd are good, Adell might find himself inside that castle, judging from what the old man said there are monsters in there. So it might not be easy. |

The boy was in awe, "WOW! You must be really brave! Just like Simon..." He then looked up at the sun that was slowly going down and said, "I gotta go now sir, sun's almost down. You should go to the Finn residence before heading out, they live right there." the boy pointed to the house where the old man limped into. "That man escaped the Castle one time, he lost his wife to the monster..." The boy then tottered off to his dad and started to finish up his work.

"Boy, that village is a lot farther than it looks." Erika muttered as she journeyed for the village hidden in the forest. She just slid down that steep slope, and is now making her trail for the sleepy village. "I do hope we reach it, soon, Miss Erika. That castle we left behind doesn't appear pleasant." |

When the boy walked off, he looked over to the Finn home. "Lost his wife eh? I guess I can sympathize with him a little..." He walked up to the house and knocked on the door. "Hello?" Adell asked. |

A latch was released at about mid door, and nothing was scene but a pair of eyes, "Oh, you're here." The latch was shut, and the door was unlocked. The voice opened the door slightly to only show half of the body. It was the woman from before, "Hello, be quiet please..." she then fully opened the door and headed for the table in the following room, "Please walk this way, and close the door behind you, make sure it's locked." she stuttered as she said half the last sentence. The woman started to set the table, "You seem to be another hero hellbent on destroying the dreaded Tepe family. That's odd...you look like him a little..." She was dazed for a moment but then shook her head and reclaimed reality.
"EH!? Isabelle! Who's there!" a grumpy old voice called out.
She bit her lower lip nervously again, "It's okay grandpa! I-I-It's the boy from earl---"
She was cut off by the voice again, "BU WUH!? You allowed him into our home? I don't want to deal with him. I TOLD YOU BOY! I have no knowledge of that dreaded place..."
The woman sighed and then whispered, "I'm sorry, he's a bit grumpy...let me get you something to drink." she went into the kitchen area to brew some hot tea.

Erika couldn't make clear of what that sound was saying, as she was just about a few yards from the village. The sound was still too far from her, and all she could hear was 'whad bu wuh yu do...'. Hey, it was still a bit far. "Is that a dog or something?" "I believe it's a person's voice, Miss Erika." From the looks of the village as they were getting closer, it looked like no one was outside. But from the sound of that...'voice'... "Someone's awake then. Come on, Brass!" Taking Brass' arm, Erika dragged her like a plush toy as she ran into the village. |

When Adell was let in, he closed the door and locked it up before following her. Then found the old man. "Really? I thought you escaped from it, thats what I heard from a villager." Adell came up to him. "I need to know about that castle, if my hunch is right then I think two of my friends could be in danger..." He bowed to the old man slightly. "Please..." |
