Sypha BelnadesWhat happened?
You walked into a Cyclops. Turns you to stone with its eye, then feeds on your terror while you're trapped in your own body.
Sypha BelnadesDid... did you climb on me?
Mmm, a bit.
Sypha BelnadesThat was rude!
Right, I'll come back later. See if you can find some beer. [leaves]
Sypha BelnadesI could pee in a bucket and tell him it's beer.
Sypha, he saved your life!
Sypha BelnadesHe's rude!
Do you have a God to put a last prayer to, Belmont?
Yeah. "Dear God, please don't let the vampire's guts ruin my good tunic."
What...?
[Trevor slips a knife into his chest, just short of his heart]
I can still rip your throat out.
You can. But it won't stop me staking you.
But you will still die.
But I don't care. Killing you was the point. Living through it was just a luxury.
[After a pause, Alucard laughs. Behind him, Sypha ignites flame between her fingers.]
Sypha BelnadesI will incinerate you before your fangs touch that man's throat.
I thought I was your legendary savior.
Sypha BelnadesSo did I. But he saved my life.
You're a Speaker magician.
Sypha BelnadesYes, and his goal is mine: to stand up for the people.
...Good. Very good. A vampire hunter and a magician. You'll do. [He lets go of Trevor; his wound heals as he stands up] I am Adrian Tepes. Known to the Wallachians as Alucard... son of Vlad Dracula Tepes. I've been asleep here in my private keep under Gresit for a year, to heal the wounds dealt by my father when I attempted to stop him unleashing his demon armies.
Sypha BelnadesYou are the Sleeping Soldier!
I'm aware of the stories. I'm also aware that the Speakers consider the story to be information from the future. Do you know the whole story?
Sypha Belnades[reddening] Yes.
The Sleeping Soldier will be met by a Hunter, and a Scholar.
No one told me that.
Sypha BelnadesWhy do you think my grandfather tried everything to make you stay?!
I hate Speakers. [stands up, as Alucard dresses himself]
Sypha BelnadesSo, what happens now?
I need a Hunter, and a Scholar. [his enchanted sword flies into the sheath on his belt] I need help to save Wallachia, perhaps the world, and defeat my father.
Why?
...Because it is what my mother would have wanted. And we are all, in the end, slaves to our family's wishes.
You'll help us kill Dracula, and save Wallachia?
My father has to die. We three... we can destroy him.
SyphaI'm still not completely clear on why you don't catch fire in the daylight.
I am half-human. My mother's name was Lisa, and she was mortal.
SyphaI would very much like to hear the story of how that happened.
[chuckles] She actually showed up, at his front door. She found the castle, and banged on the front door with the pommel of her knife.
SyphaShe sounds interesting.
Oh, she was remarkable. She beat on the door until my father let her in, and then demanded he teach her how to be a doctor-
[sits up] Wait, Dracula taught a human woman how to be a doctor? [chuckles scornfully] What was first, bloodletting?
God, you still think you're funny. My father-
Dracula-
-Is a man of science. A philosopher, a scholar. And knows things our society has forgotten three times over. Do you still not understand the enormity of what we're doing? He's gone mad. And from that, there is no recovering him.
[sarcastically] Shame.
It's a tragedy. He's a repository of centuries of learning. He could've changed the world; I think he might've, if Mother hadn't died. She'd sent him out into the world. That's why he wasn't there, when the Bishops took her.
SyphaShe sent him away?
She sent him to... travel. To learn the true state of the world, the true nature of humans and how they live.
SyphaShe was... turning him.
Imagine if he could've aimed all that knowledge at improving lives... If the religious inquisition hadn't proved true, all of his worst instincts about humans.
And now he's going to use her death, as an excuse to destroy the world.
Oh, the world will still be here, Belmont. Trees will still grow, birds will still sing, animals will still hump away in the undergrowth. But you won't be here. And you won't be here. None of you. The sun will still set, but you will not see it rise. There will only be Dracula, and his War Council, and the hordes of the night. [pause] He writes in great books, you know. He hews the covers himself from oak, and wraps them in the preserved skin of the people who he hated most. And he writes plans; I've seen them. Ideas for darkening clouds, and making them as permanent in the air as the frost of the North. Great strange flying machines, that pull shrouds across the sky to block out the sun. Imagine it. A world without humans, under endless invented night. And Dracula in his castle... his revenge so horribly complete, that there is nothing left to do but look out over a world without art or memory or laughter, and know that he did his work well. That he did it all for love.
SyphaWhat was your Leon Belmont doing in Wallachia?
[darkly] Hunting Dracula.
...Here it all is, then. The last of us [notices a chest under a broken shelf] Bloody hell. Is that what I think it is?
SyphaCareful, Trevor. You almost sounded excited about something.
It couldn't be, could it?
[Trevor drags the chest from its resting place into the open, while Sypha keeps studying a tome. Trevor takes out a knife and uses it to break the lock off. He opens the chest, revealing a long metal chain with a handle on one end and spiked head on the other. Trevor picks it up.]
Beautiful.
SyphaWhat on Earth is that ugly thing?
I don't believe they hid it. It's the Morning Star!
Sypha[going through one of the Belmonts' books] It's all here. You're right, this is quite amazing! [Notices Alucard is still staring at the vampire skulls] Isn't it? It's amazing.
[sarcastically] Charming.
SyphaYou're not even a little bit impressed?
It's like a museum dedicated to the extermination of my people, so no. Not thrilled.
SyphaI did it!
Where did you land the castle, Sypha?
Sypha(proudly) Right on top of us!
[The roof creaks. Alucard gives her a look.]
Sypha...Oh, yes. I landed it on the surface, right above this underground space that's probably only held up by wood and dirt. Let's go!
SyphaWhen I met you, you reeked of piss, blood and stale beer. You killed a monster largely by accident...
Hey, that took serious skills!
SyphaAnd then demanded alcohol before storming off like a toddler with a thistle up his back end.
Right-right, how does that even...?
SyphaShh! And now, in the short time we have known each other, you have rediscovered yourself, and you've grown. Today might be the first time I felt like I was talking to an adult man. You're better than you were when I met you. Do you know why I think that is? It's because you're doing what you were born for. As insane as it sounds, this entire nightmare scenario has made you complete. I think you should see it through... with me.
With you?
SyphaYes. You could be my handsome sidekick or mascot. Imagine that. If you didn't talk much, people would think you were my deformed pet bear and throw you free food.
Sypha[overacting] Oh, no! Night creatures! Whatever shall I do? Out here alone in the forest, with only my brain-damaged servant who talks about nothing but beer? I am certainly doomed!
Oh God, not this again...
SyphaDoomed, I say! I am defenseless and frozen to my seat with fear!
Laying it on a little thick, aren't you, Sypha?
SyphaIt's always easier when we let them get in range.
[leaving Lindenfeld]
SyphaThis could not have gone more wrong... what happened?
We've spent a couple of months living your life. Adventures and victories. And now... we're living my life.
[Trevor and Sypha are fighting Fleaman demons in a field.]
SyphaShit!
What did you just say?
SyphaI said "shit", okay?
Yes, it's just that you never, you know, curse.
SyphaI never used to, and then all this happened. And then you happened.
Me?
SyphaYes, you. I was nice. And then I met you, and now I'm like you.
Oh, so it's my fault.
SyphaIt's all your fault! You did this to me!
I found you turned into a statue in a fucking tomb!
SyphaAnd climbed all over me, and since that moment everything has been shit, and... [two more Fleaman lunge at her] AAH! I AM FUCKING TALKING HERE! [Sypha incinerates them] You turned me into someone who says "shit"! Fuckity-shit-hairy-arse-warts-giant-slimy-balls... SHIT!
