Part 0: Beginning of the end.
Arc 4: Dracula Infinity and the ties of a bloodline.
(In an unknown location in the city of New York)
(Dracula stands in the middle of a dark room with the cracked Sapphire of Infinity in his hand, he has used it and has achieved Infinity, granting him an immortal body and mind, but it can be pushed even further into Ascended Infinity...)
(Vlad is bowing down to Dracula)
Dracula Infinity: (Standing in the darkness, his face shrouded by darkness, holding the Sapphire of Infinity tightly in his hand) So Van Helsing has arrived in New York? Vlad, find his group and eliminate him, right now.
Vlad: (Stands up) Yes, my infinite god.
(Vlad leaves the room)
(Alucard walks in to the room)
Alucard: So... it is true, you have attained your Infinity... I see no difference in you.
Dracula Infinity: (Seemingly teleports to a bookshelf) Alucard... as doubtful as ever, you have not changed one bit. Did you bring me what I requested?
(An old lady walks into the room, dressed in witch-like clothes)
Dracula Infinity: (Slowly flipping through a book) Baba Yaga... do you know, why you are here?
Baba Yaga: I don't even know who you are...
Dracula Infinity: Infinity, is what I am. And it's simple, two reasons. Tell me my future and how I surpass myself.
Alucard: (Throws a bag on the floor and leaves the room) Everything you need is in there... I'd recommend you don't insult him.
(A few minutes later)
Baba Yaga: (Is sitting on the floor, with a bunch of strange objects around her) (Her eyes are closed) Ah... I see it now.
Dracula Infinity: (Standing in the darkness, covering his face) What do you see?
Baba Yaga: Fortune and Failure. To obtain your "Ascended Infinity" requires two things...
Dracula Infinity: And they are?
Baba Yaga: The Scarlet eclipse and the blood of a Royal Demon...
Dracula Infinity: And when is this "Scarlet Eclipse"?
Baba Yaga: This weekend, 4 days from now.
Dracula Infinity: A Royal Demon... Van Helsing's friend is one, a half one... that will work. (Laughing sinisterly) I can feel the adrenaline, hahaha!!!
Baba Yaga: There is still the matter of the failure...
Dracula Infinity: *Tch* Fine tell me about this failure. What is it?
Baba Yaga: There is one, who you have wronged, a Reaper who slays those that crawl in the dark, including you. Sam Reyes, you will learn to fear his name!!
Dracula Infinity: (Teleports behind Baba Yaga) Wrong answer.
(Dracula Infinity drives his fist straight through Baba Yaga's stomach, killing her and spilling blood everywhere)
Dracula Infinity: (Licking off the blood on his fist) Even if he assembles an army, he won't overcome my power...
(Meanwhile)
(The day after Sam bought Annah)
(They are walking through the streets together)
(As they are walking a man confronts Sam)
The Man: Hey!!!
Sam: Yes? What do you want?
The Man: How dare you!
Sam: What? How dare I what?
The Man: (Notices Sam covering Annah) How dare you! Keep such a queen, in dirty and filthy rags! You can't even call it cosplay! Comic con was a week ago! Hand her over, (Reaches his hand out to Annah) Follow me my queen...
Sam: (Simp Detected, engaging in procedures) (Sam walks over to the man and grabs him by the shoulders) I'm sorry, I bought her, she's mine. So how do I put this... she's my servant, not your queen!! Now leave us alone!
The Man: (Clearly fearful) Understood...
Sam: (Lets go of the man) Good, now go! And don't call the cops!
(The man runs away)
(They walk into a clothing store together, Annah still holding tightly onto Sam's left arm)
Store Clerk: (Seeing Sam buying clothes for her) Oh, well aren't you two the cutest cou-...
Sam: (Looking through clothes) Don't say it.
(They both walk into a dressing room)
Store Clerk: Hey! Only one person at a time!
Sam: (Pops his head around the corner) She won't go without me...
(She comes out wearing a white jacket, with a red shirt underneath and black pants with brown boots)
Sam: How much, for this?
Store Clerk: Well let's see here... 20$.
Sam: 20$? Let's see here... that leaves us with 2100 yen!!! For a Jacket, shirt, boots and pants!!!
Store Clerk: Well sir, this is New York City...
Sam: Shit... fine.
(Sam pays the money and leaves the store)
(They go to a barber next)
The Barber: Well, well who do we have here?
Sam: I want a haircut for her. Just to her shoulders, basically shorten it.
(Sam sets Annah down in a chair and sits in the chair next to her)
The Barber: (He is readying Annah for a haircut) You're not getting a haircut? Sit in the waiting chair...
Sam: You'll see in a minute...
(Annah seems confused as to what is going on)
Sam: Go easy with the scissors and the clipper...
(She seems calm when he's using the scissor, but the second the clipper comes out she freaks out, kicking and moving around all over the placd and she holds tighter onto Sam's arm)
Sam: (While reading a magazine) Easy now, he's just trying to cut your hair, it won't hurt.
(Annah calms down and the Barber finishes his job)
(He turns the chair around and Annah now has shorter hair going to her shoulders)
Barber: Well sir, your wife-...
Sam: (Stands up and starts to walk out with Annah) Don't call her that.
Barber: Well anyways, it's done. Are you sure you don't want a haircut for your...
Sam: Call my right parted undercut stupid, I dare you...
Barber: I didn't say so...
Sam: Good.
(The continue walking through the streets and Annah's stomach starts growling and she holds it)
Sam: You hungry? I'll get us something to eat.
(Sam and Annah walk to a hot dog stand)
Owner of the stand: Ah! A young married couple.
Sam: Why does everyone call us that? Listen two hot dogs, two sodas.
Owner: What would you like on it?
Sam: Garlic sauce and Mustard, please.
Owner: And your wife?
(Annah looks at the owner in confused)
Sam: She's not my wife and she'll take ketchup.
(The hot dog stand owner finishes the hot dogs and hands them over)
Sam: (Hands over the hot dog and soda to Annah) Eat it, it'll fill you up.
(Annah looks at the hot dog in excitement, she quickly starts eating it)
Sam: Hey, hey easy now, you'll choke...
(Sam's mind wanders off and the image of Isabel, flashes in front of him, making Annah look like her)
(Sam suddenly hugs Annah tightly, a single tear in his eye)
(Sam lets go of her, shakes his head and snaps out of it)
(Annah looks concerned at Sam)
Sam: Heh... don't worry about me, just chew your food properly.
(Meanwhile in the hotel)
(Erik is sitting in the lobby drinking a glass of water and reading a magazine)
Erik: (Reading the magazine) "New signs that point towards the existence of Atlantis" Huh, neat...
(A little boy walks over to Erik, with wonder in his eyes)
The boy: Sir... are-... are you a magician?
Erik: A... a magician? (His face turns serious) Yes... indeed I am.
(Erik picks up the glass of water, with a serious expression still on his face. He turns the glass upside-down and... the water remains in the glass, without moving a tiny bit)
The boy: That's-... That's awesome!!!
Erik: Comes naturally kid.
(Sam and Annah arrive back to the hotel)
Erik: Finally, there you two are. (Notices Annah cleaned up and tidy) I almost didn't know that was Annah there for a second...
Sam: Yeah...
Erik: You got a few phone calls from your friend Able, he said we should meet him at the JFK international airport.
Sam: He say when?
Erik: He just said we should him there...
Sam: Let's go, the faster we can get to Dracula, the better our chance of him not taking over the world.
Erik: Right...
(They go outside and Sam whistles for a taxi)
(They get inside a taxi and drive to the airport)
(Inside the airport, Able is standing inside looking out for Sam, there is another man sitting near to him)
Able: (Looking out) Where are they? He was supposed to be here already...
Sam: (Approaching Able) Hey! You're looking in the wrong direction!
Able: Haha, Sam! You've made it!
(Sam, Annah and Erik approach Able)
Able: You're Erik Pendleton, right? (Shakes hands with Erik) Good to finally meet you in person... (Notices Annah holding tightly onto Sam's left arm) And... uh... you... Sam who is she?
Sam: Her name's Annah Zitalia, I bought her from a servant owner.
Able: You... you bought someone from a servant owner? I have one question... Why!!!
(Annah seems to be a little bit shocked and moves behind Sam)
Sam: Listen, brother... I wanted to set her free, feed her, give her clothes and money. But due to some spell, we can't leave each other never, she's with me now and she's staying... And don't try your pervy habits on her, there are millions of other women on the planet, she's just not one of them.
Able: Understood. Moving swiftly forward, you got any info on Dracula?
Sam: Aside from the fact he probably achieved Infinity, I don't have much. Which brings us to my next point, did you bring backup?
Able: Yeah... (Turns to the man sitting behind him) Hey! You asleep there?
(The man stands up and puts his hand on his chest in a formal matter of greeting)
(He has neat swept back brown hair, redish eyes, he stands at 5'8ft with a strong build, he is wearing a brown jacket, white shirt and black pants, he gives off this ominous atmosphere.)
Able: His name is, Carter Cecil Vekter. He has a grudge against Dracula, I met him in England, he is a member of The RoundTable Organization...
Sam: Does he have an Elementa?
Able: Yeah, (Looks at Carter) how about you show them it?
Carter Cecil Vekter: (a bronze revolver with a mahogany grip forms in his hand) Its name is Bronze Colt. It is a weapon type Magica, firing heavy damaging rounds...
Erik: (Looking at Bronze Colt) How did Elementa evolve from Water to a gun?
Sam: Hey, every Elementa is unique it was bound to happen eventually.
Able: Sam? Does Annah have an Elementa?
Sam: Annah? Do you have an Elementa? Like a power?
(Annah shakes her head in confusing)
Sam: Doesn't look like it... listen, since we can't leave each other. Should we encounter an enemy, Annah try to hide, understand?
(Annah thinks for a second and nods her head)
Sam: Good. Let's head out and find us a Dracula!
Everyone except Annah: Right! Let's go!
(The group walks together out the airport, ready to stop this thousand year old threat and save humanity, together.
Samuel Reyes, Elementa: Grimm Fire, a steady stream of fire, fired in accurate hits, it evolves as the Magica level evolves, making it stronger and potentially learning new skills.
Able Pendragon, Elementa: Harness Winds, an Elementa that boosts attack speeds of the user and the weapon they are currently holding, can also fire short gusts of wind to stun the enemy
Erik Pendleton, Elementa: Healing Aqua, a support Elementa that heals wounds, using a concentrated ray of water, doesn't have any offensive capabilities, but can stun the enemy.
Carter Vekter, Elementa: Bronze Colt, an Elementa that looks like a revolver, but fires stronger rounds that can rip apart an enemy, its ammo supply is unlimited.)
