Gerald looks for anything he can make an escape with and finds a small servants quarter door in the side of the castle. He didn't stop to think of what could be on the other side. Only that it could get him distance from that thing raging outside.
"Quick come"
He pulled the knob pulling the door open so fast the hinges shook a little from the franticness of the yank.
English
-
Zora had followed behind him, slashing her way through the undead that were around them
-
A set of stairs stood before them leading out to a door. Gerald cracked open the door and to their luck "Ted" was standing in front of a coffin with the last half in his hand. He began approaching the old casket. "[u]It's Almost time to wake up old friend. Now I know this isn't your traditional body to inhabit but... this will do.[/u]"
-
"Hello?" Zora said, calling out to "Ted" as she moved forward
-
He looked over startled and quickly tucked his half of the spear under his clothing before looking over. "[u]Huh? Oh, you should be here girl. This place isn't meant for others to intrude on[/u]" He didn't seem to realize his cover was blown and continued to pretend to be a priest.
-
"I must speak to you, priest. I have sinnned. Been a very naughty girl. I need your help at redemption."
-
He put his hand on her shoulder and looked at her. His had was unaturaly cold and his breath smelled of decay. "[u]In a moment dear, first I have business to take care of[/u]"
-
"Oh yes, I am sure. Such as collecting a staff that may kill whoever resides in the castle."
-
"[u]hmm, well something like-[/u]" The edge of a scythe suddenly protruded from his other sleeve as he whiped his arm around to take a swipe at zora. Within moments the face of a gental old man seemed to be replaced with a skeletal figure eyeing her as he attacked.
-
She dropped downwards in a crouching position, the scythe flying over her head, and she sent a kick at the priest's leg
-
The clothing became replaced with robes as Death began floating in the air, but without much warning someone was sitting on the coffin watching them both. Death himself stopped, startled to see who sat before them. https://youtu.be/lLP6b6mOolw "[i]Why is it always fighting? Do you know why I hate humanity? A wolf or any other form of animal will challenge another directly. Humans, they will send others in their stead, even ones own son to his death in an attempt to end me...[/i]" "Gabriel Belmot I presume or do you still go by Dracula, the dragon" Dracula glared at Gerald's remark, clearly agitated at the mention of his old name.
-
"Hey, it's not just humanity. Every race out there has sent someone in their stead to fight." "The Asari, Quarians, Turians, Twi'leks, hell even the Damn AI. Races..."
-
"[i]I could care less about the others you named! Humanity is who failed to protect my wife, tricked me into killing my own son, and b_st_rdized my very existence![/i]" It was clear from the mix of rage and sorrow in his eyes he only truly felt pure, unrefined hatred for mankind. If there was even a hint of joy in his heart it was the remains of a ever smoldering joy at the thought of absolute destruction of an entire species. "Your spouting exposition at the wrong crowd you know" Gerald touted in a clearly smart_ssed manner.
-
"Yeah, are we supposed to care about your family? This gonna be some kind of thing where we beat you, and give you mercy cause of your sob story? Nah." Zora stopped, slamming the tip of her blade into the ground. "Your time is up." The man, or Skeleton, or whatever he was, found himself suddenly rotting. His bones became a sickening green, and cracks ran along his body The cracks connected between each other, and the bones began falling away, turning to dust as the figure disappeared. His robes clattered to the ground, with the spear wrapped up inside of them and Zora fell to her knees, exhausted [spoiler]If you don't get it, Zora literally took every moment he had left and took it from him, all the way up to the point where a Skelton turns to dust due to decay and such [/spoiler]
-
"[i]hmph[/i]" The Lord of darkness stood up as a blood red whip formed in his hand. He lashed out as Gerald caught the whip on his sword and brought the shaft of the spear back in time next to the pile of dust. He took a shot at Dracula's head but the wounds seemed to heal almost instantly. "Please, it's hardly fair if you just heal from everything I hit you with." He pulled a chalice out of the air and splashed water on the monsters face which caused him to flinch. It was soon he realized it was only a trick. Gerald was toying with him only pretending to have holy water.
-
"GREAT TRICK!" Zora jumped to her feet, and actually tackled into Dracula taking both to the ground
-
The vampire lords arms burst into flames as he tried to break loose yet as he tried, Gerald stood there, the spear reassembled hovering over his head. "Ladies first?" He said before pausing time and letting the spear float overhead. "Sorry, I just felt like he would make us listen to another one of his dreadful tails before we killed him"
-
"Oh." Zara got to feet awkwardly and walked towards Gerald, standing besides him "You can go ahead and do it."
-
"Hmm..." He started positioning it over his heart then quickly put it over his mouth. "Just in case" He joked before resuming time. The spear dropped and left him twitching before finally becoming still. "I get that his family died but what a drama queen." Gerald looked inside the coffin for any trinkets and saw a sword with frost coating it and a pair of burning gauntlets.
-
"Dibs on the sword!" Zora said, looking in with Gerald
-
"Ah the Void sword. An interesting peice of work. It slightly heals the one who uses it as they swing at their opponent." He then picked it up and looked for a lit candle, the swung it and a wave of cold came off the blade, freezing the wick. "And then there's the fact it can freeze things" Gerald then passed the sword over and began trying on the gauntlets.
-
"Why is called the Void sword? Should be called the Frozen Blade. Oh. Catchy. I'm changing the name." Zora said with a chuckle as she took the blade from her hands
-
"As for the chaos claws, their a bit more straight forward. Heats up what it hits and shoots fireballs. Great for making people drop their shield" He then takes aim at the same candle and launches at it again, this time melting the candle, wax and all. [spoiler]Probably Should Have Found Pictures earlier but tada lol[/spoiler]
-
"Sweet..." Zora said, the Frozen Blade disappeared as she laughed a little, clearly pleased
-
"Hmm, keep the castle or tear it down, that is the question" He muttered thinking aloud to himself. The put away the claws and pulled his jacket back out of time to button it up while he thought.
-
"I say keep It. There's still alot to discover, and new enemies to face."
