~~ INTRODUCTION
++++++++++++++++
Hi, and welcome to my Game Script for Castlevania: Curse of Darkness.  This
script was originally intended to be included in the walkthrough that I did for
Curse of Darkness, but I thought that readers would rather have it separate
since the walkthrough is quite larger than I was expecting.  Anyway, I have
tried to be really descriptive on many of the cutscenes described within and
hopefully you will enjoy that aspect.  Let me know what you think of the script
if you would like.  My email is berserker_kev@yahoo.com.  Feel free to email me
at any time.

~~ GAME SCRIPT
+++++++++++++++
In order to give the reader the full effect of each scene, I have included some
character traits such as Isaac's constant laughing and giggling along with St.
Germains constant hand gestures and expressions since that helps to define
their characters.  The script is slightly different from the in-game script
since I have added the slightest word that the character may say to the side
during cutscenes.  Some of the subtitles in the game are wrong (very few) so
mine will differ slightly from them.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ Dracula's Curse
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ Cutscene: Opening
1476 Valachia
A great war raged between Dracula and humanity.  Just when it seemed that there
was no hope for mankind to prevail, out of the darkness and despair, a champion
arose -- a true-blooded vampire hunter named Trevor Belmont.  Belmont and his
comrades triumphantly slew Lord Dracula -- a truly glorious victory for all.
However, the evil one did not pass from this world in silence.  With his final
words, Lord Dracula left a demonic curse that enshrouded all of Europe in
misery and torment.  Ravaged by hideous plague and dire famine, the people's
hearts turned black and murderous.  The weak were slain without pity, while the
land was pillaged and scourged without remorse.
Three years have passed since the death of Lord Dracula -- and the invocation
of Dracula's Curse.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ A Devil Forgemaster's Revenge
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: First meeting with Isaac
(Camera shows view of the Abandoned Castle)
(Hector runs toward the castle as the drawbridge falls down allowing him to
enter.  He runs to the front courtyard of the castle.)
Hector: Show yourself, Isaac!  I know you're here! (voice echoes)
Isaac : Hector? Is that you?
(Isaac stands on the stairs with Abel while Hector stands in the courtyard)
Hector: I've finally tracked you down.
Isaac : Eh, hehehe... You tracked me down?  Hehehe... I was the one who lured
you here.  Hector... the fool who betrayed our Lord Dracula.
Hector: That matters not.  I've come to exact my revenge upon you!  For the
death of Rosaly!
Isaac : Oh?  And how will you have this "revenge"...hehehe...when you are
utterly at my mercy.  You relinquished your powers -- you couldn't even
protect your own woman!  And now, you think to defeat ME? Hehehe.
(Hector looks downward while disgusted)
Isaac : Lord Dracula is gone, but his powers are still here in Valachia... Even
you must realize...
Hector: Devil forging...
Isaac : Indeed.  With this, the most forbidden of arts, (walks toward Abel) a
wisp of conjured matter can be transformed into a hellish devil!  There
are but two humans who possess this magnificent power: you and I.
Hehe.
Hector: Yes, to our lasting shame.  But I shed that evil power -- never again
will I use it.
Isaac : Ah, but you will, Hector.  And soon!  You have no choice.  Without it,
I could crush you in an instant... but that wouldn't be very
satisfying, now would it?  You deserve a most gruesome fate for the
humiliation you brought upon me 3 years ago.  Bereft of the power of
devil forging, you cannot hope to pursue me.  That is why you will
reclaim your powers, and thence, follow where I lead you... (starts to
walk away then turns back toward Hector) But in the end, the glorious
vengeance you seek will not be yours -- t'will be mine!  Ehehe.
Ehehehehahaha!
(Isaac walks through the castle doors with Abel following)
Hector: Wait!  Isaac!
(Isaac disappears in the darkness of the castle)
Hector: Damn him.  So be it.  I must descend into darkness and reclaim that
accursed power once more... Heed my words.  (swipes arm forward)  I
will hunt you down like the beast you are!  I will have my revenge.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ A Priest Who Has Come To Purify This Land.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: Upon entering the Fairy Devil Forge
Hector: this unearthly power...
(Hector walks toward the Fairy ID tombstone)
Hector: Is it coming from that tombstone?  Heh, how conscientious of him.  He
carved the instructions into the stone, along with with the most
difficult visualization.  So, that's how badly he wants me to regain my
powers... Very well.
(Hector spreads out his arms as his hands start to glow)
Hector: Heed my words, O great powers of darkness!  Release to me one of the
tortured souls!  Let me infuse him with my life-force and awaken him to
the world of the living!  Immaculate being, appear before me know!
(Hector blasts the Fairy statue with a shot of energy from his hands)
(The Fairy Innocent Devil stretches as if woken from a long sleep and dashes to
Hector's side.  Hector watches as the Fairy circles around him then dashes
away)
Zead  : (claps) Well, well, devil forging isn't it?  Never seen that before.
Quite impressive.  It's enough to make your blood run cold.
Hector: Who are you?
Zead  : Oh, my apologies, m'lord.  I should have offered an introduction.  I go
by Zead.  I'm here for one purpose only: to purify this land of the
pestilent curse which infects it.
Hector: I see.
Zead  : You, on the other hand, are pursuing the other devil forgemaster... are
you not?  The one you seek fled toward the chapel on the other side of
the mountain.  He made his escape through the back of the castle.
Hector: What concern is this to you?
Zead  : He is the one protecting the curse.  Ergo, he is an impediment to me...
and to all those who abide in this land.
Hector: I see.  Very well.  I, Hector, thank you for your help.  Now if you'll
forgive me, I must be on my way.
(Hector walks away)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ First Meeting With Julia
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: Baljhet Mountains (near Julia's Shop)
(Hector runs down a pathway in the mountains then suddenly stops when he sees a
woman kneeling down)
Hector: It can't be... That's impossible... She can't be alive...
(The woman looks up and notices Hector)
Julia : Oh.  May I be of service?
Hector: Un, no... Forgive me.  My name is Hector.  What are you doing in a
place like this?
Julia : I could ask you the same question, sir.
Hector: I am searching for someone.  A man bearing the same crest I'm wearing.
(The camera shows the back of Hector's outfit with what appears to be a crest
of a black and white silhouette on each side symbolizing a devil forgemaster as
Julia moves around to Hector's backside.)
Julia : And this man... Is he your enemy?  Or your friend?
Hector: You sound as if you know him.
Julia : Yes, quite so.  Now answer me.  Be he your enemy or foe?
Hector: He is my most bitter enemy.
Julia : I see... In that case... I shall help you.
(They start to circle each other)
Hector: Pardon me, m'lady, but by what reason would you offer me this boon?
Indeed, by what reason should I trust it?
Julia: Your enemy is my enemy... That is reason enough.  If you are a devil
forgemaster, you shall need a place to keep your "little friends" safe.
Rest assured, you have no reason to refuse my help.
Hector: You seem quite knowledgeable.  Who are you exactly?
Julia : A witch.  I escaped from the western lands, where we were hunted like
vermin.  I have the power to envision the future.
Hector: How interesting... And your name?
Julia : Julia.  My house is further on.  I shall prepare an elixir that may be
of use to you.  Farewell... for now.
(Julia walks to the back doorway)
Hector: Julia... She is the very image of Rosaly.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ Saint Germain Enters
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: In front of Garibaldi Temple
(Hector walks toward the front of Garibaldi Temple and looks up to behold its
magnificence)
(The feet and legs of some unknown figure start to walk toward Hector)
Hector     : (slightly startled)
St. Germain: I've been waiting for you Hector.  Devil forgemaster. (bows)
Hector     : How do you know me?  Who are you!?
St. Germain: Sait Germain. (tips hat) I won't bandy words with you. (speaks
with hand gestures) I have an urgent request... Please, refrain
from pursuing Isaac any further.
Hector     : Bastard!  So you're with Isaac!  But that does not follow... Isaac
wishes to fight me.  For what purpose do you make this request?
St. Germain: This will not make sense to you, but to put it simply, I seek to
maintain the flow of a greater will.
Hector     : This is pointless.  Out of my way! (walks toward St. Germain)
St. Germain: (quickly speaks) Your beloved was killed on false allegations that
she was a witch.  I know how you feel, and I sympathize.  Truly.
But please look past your own grudges --
Hector     : (interrupts) Wretch! (jumps back shocked and angry) How do you
know of these things?!
St. Germain: That...I cannot tell.  I know far more than you imagine.  But I
cannot act upon that knowledge.  That is my... heh, arrangement.
I may only observe.
(A sound of birds in the distance grabs St. Germain's attention as he turns to
look to the side, interrupted, but quickly gets back to his conversation with
Hector)
St. Germain: I...I have no choice but to excuse myself.  Please consider my
request... The world hangs in the balance.  (holds hands to
symbolize scales) Goodbye. (tips hat)
(Saint Germain teleports away)
Hector     : (confused, yet curious) Who was that!?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ First Meeting With Trevor
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: Before Trevor battle in Garibaldi Temple
(Hector walks into the room)
Trevor: Wait! (steps out from side corner of the room near the door and holds
up whip) That crest... Are you the devil forgemaster?
Hector: (turns around) That whip... Could he be...?
Trevor: Answer me!  Are you the devil forgemaster?!
Hector: I am!
Trevor: Then this is the hour of your death!
(Trevor stretches his whip and prepares to do battle)
Battle Dialogue:
Incinerate!  Burn!  Weak!
If Trevor beats you:
Your evil power can't beat me!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ "Are You Not Trevor Belmont?"
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: After Trevor battle in Garibaldi Temple
(Both Hector and Trevor step away as the battle dies down. Hector falls to his
knees then nearly hits the ground)
Trevor: (points with whip) On your oath, are you truly the Devil Forgemaster?
Hector: And if I am?
Trevor: For one that served under Dracula, you seem much too weak.  It's been
said that the devil forgemaster's power rivals that of Death.
Hector: Ah, so you are hunting for Isaac, as well, I see...
Trevor: As well?  Then you're not... Wait... I recall there was another devil
forgemaster.  They say he betrayed Dracula and forswore his power.  But
that was 3 years ago during the war... Could he have survived?  It
cannot be...
Hector: Believe what you like. (gets up) But answer me this.  Are you not
Trevor Belmont... The one who defeated Lord Dracula?
Trevor: That I am.  Though, I did not fight alone.  There were many brave
warriors beside me.  And your name, sir?
Hector: Hector.
Trevor: Hector... I shall remember that name.
(Trevor walks toward the door as Hector stares)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ Hector Interrupts a Meeting in the Aqueduct
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: Shortly after entering Mortvia Aqueduct
(Hector walks down the waterway and suddenly notices Zead looking off to the
side by the edge of the waterway)
Zead       : (turns around while slightly surprised) Ah, I'm pleased to see you
are unharmed.
Hector     : Did you think me dead?
Zead       : I saw him ealier... I feared that perhaps...
Hector     : I came too late then.  Which way did he go?
Zead       : (points down the waterway) Along this path lies a forest.  He went
there.  Probably making his way to the village on the other side.
Hector     : And what of your mission?  To purfify this land and remove the
curse?
Zead       : (stares downward) Yes, the curse.  In the end, it is all Isaac; he
is the source of this pestilence.  He...
(Zead looks around as if suddenly distracted by something)
Zead       : Ah, how could I forget?  There is a matter I must attend to.  By
your leave.
(Zead walks away while Hector turns around to watch him.  Saint Germain slowly
appears behind Hector.  Hector turns back around quickly)
Hector     : You again?
St. Germain: (tips hat) Oh, it's you.  Haha... I was expecting someone else.
You spoke with him didn't you?
Hector     : And why should I answer to you?
St. Germain: Perhaps you'll except my advice, then.  You would do well to
avoid... him.  Do not be drawn in by his words...
Hector     : (steps forward) Your advice is neither solicited, nor welcome.  I
will use any means necessary to achieve my revenge! (holds up
fist)
St. Germain: (holds up both hands) You've been warned.  I would like to
(points) speak with you further, but I must track him down
quickly.  He is the one being who is beyond my recollection. (tips
hat) Goodbye for now.
(Hector watches as Saint Germain teleports away)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ A Squabble in the Forest
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: Upon entering the Forest of Jigramunt
St. Germain: (in the distance) That is why I am telling you this.
Hector     : Voices?
(Hector notices a conversation up ahead and quickly steps behind a tree)
Hector     : Who could it be?
(camera shows Saint Germain talking to Zead in the distance)
Zead       : Do not go beyond your bounds.  You mustn't speak nor act upon
matters related to fate.  You had better refrain from saying
anything unsuitable.
St. Germain: That is correct of course.  But what about you?  Is it not
ludicrous for you to be guiding a traveler in these circumstances?
Zead       : I am merely lending assistance to one who is seeking what he
already desires.  It is the same with the curse.
St. Germain: That is ridiculous.  You have different rules for yourself--
Zead       : This discourse is at an end.
(Zead's calm nature fades as he suddenly becomes aggravated and a blade slides
out from under his right sleeve)
Zead       : (approaches Saint Germain) I cannot have you interfering any
longer!
(Zead tries to strike Saint Germain, but Saint Germain quickly teleports behind
him.  Zead looks behind him angrily and runs then strikes at him again, then
again, and again, but Saint Germain quickly dodges each attack then teleports
away from the third strike)
St. Germain: I will keep returning... until the day you finally surrender.
(Saint Germain tips his hat and smiles with content then teleports away shortly
before Zead strikes at him.  Zead looks around angrily)
Zead       : No one escapes from me.
(Zead strikes the area in front of him with his blade and opens a portal with a
purplish glow as the blade tears through thin air.  Zead steps through the
portal as it fades behind him.)
(Hector steps out from the back of the tree that he was hiding behind as his
eyes show a look of shock.)
Hector     : So, those two are enemies...
(A look of curiousity overcomes Hector as he looks onward.)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ Isaac Tests Hector's Abilities
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: Isaac Boss Fight Beginning
(camera zooms in on Isaac as he lifts his head)
Isaac : So, you've caught up already.
Hector: Isaac!!
Isaac : Hmph, it's still too soon, but all the same...
(Isaac twirls Chauve-Souris spear)
Isaac : I'll test your ability and see how much of your power has been
restored!
(Isaac readies his spear)
Battle Dialogue:
Come on!  How dare you!  Not bad.  Go!  Kill!  Is that your best?  Die!  Ah,
hahahaha!  No way!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ An Annoying Interruption
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: After Isaac 1 Boss Fight
(As Hector and Isaac continue to battle each other, Abel swoops down to attack
Hector.  Hector ducks the attack, dodges Isaac's spear, then kicks Abel as Abel
swoops by again.  Hector jumps into the air and punches Abel to the ground then
lands back on the ground.  Hector dodges Issac's attacks then backflips away.)
Isaac : Ah, how gratifying!  Your power is indeed returning...but it's still
not enough!
(Isaac starts to rush toward Hector but is interrupted)
Julia : Brother!! Stop!
Isaac : Julia...
Isaac : Return, Abel!
(Isaac pulls his hand inward summoning Abel back)
(Hector looks toward Julia)
Hector: Brother?
Isaac : What an annoying interruption.  Well, so be it... It's still too early
to finish you anyway.  Regain more of your power first. (starts to
disappear) You'll need it all if you hope to kill me.
Hector: You're not getting away!
(Hector rushes toward Issac but is stopped by Julia)
Julia : No!  Let him go!
Hector: So, I was taken in... You were in league with Isaac all along.
Julia : Think what you like.  But I do wish for you to stop him.  Honestly.
Hector: Then why did you keep me from him?
Julia : Because it is too soon.  You still lack the strength and spirit to
defeat him.
Hector: I know that my strength is still growing.  But what do you mean by my
spirit--
Julia : You must understand this!  My brother is in the venomous grip of Lord
Dracula's curse.  The desires of a single man mean nothing.  The curse
rules him.
Hector: Then go with Belmont and one of his vampire slayers.  Someone you can
be sure of.
Julia : No Hector, you must be the one to defeat him.  My brother has always
respected you.  Only you can free him from the curse.  And also... if
you are the one to slay him... only then could I live with it.
Hector: I understand... of course, he is your brother... forgive me.  I was
vexed; I did not mean to offend.
Hector: I will take my leave of you now... and I will do what I can...
(Hector walks away)
Julia : Be vigilant, Hector.  I have an ill feeling.  It bodes not well.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ Saint Germain's Test
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: Before Saint Germain boss fight
(Hector approaches St. Germain who is leaning against the clock tower)
St. Germain: Oh!  An unexpected guest. (bows)
Hector     : So, Zead hasn't slain you yet?
St. Germain: (points) I see you were spying on us... But I am an expert at
miraculous escapes.  Despite that, however, I have fallen into his
trap at last.
Hector     : Trap?  What trap?
St. Germain: Well, this space itself is a barrier... Which leads me to
question... How did you get here? (points suspiciously)
Hector     : On foot.  There were no barriers.
St. Germain: Interesting.  Most interesting -- yes, that is quite possible.
(claps hands together and turns his back to Hector while most
enthused)
Hector     : What are you saying?
St. Germain: Well, in this space, I may be partially freed of the fetters of
time.  So that means I can have a direct physical effect here.
For example... (reaches to the side and pulls a sword from thin
air) I can fight you! (a look of excitement overcomes him)
Hector     : So, is that your intent?  To stop me by force?
St. Germain: Nooot exactly!  But by fighting you, all that I need to know will
be revealed.
(St. Germain slashes his sword to the side and enters a sword stance)
Battle dialogue:
Now time advance!  Now time reverse!  Here we go.  That's the spirit!
If St. Germain beats you:
"Is this destiny as well?"
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ A New Destiny and a New Path for Hector
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: After Saint Germain boss fight
(Hector jumps on St. Germain and holds his fist back ready to hit him)
St. Germain: I surrender... I promise not to interfere with you again.
Hector     : Very well.
St. Germain: (getting up) I now see how fascinating time, or rather, fate truly
is.
Hector     : Just who are you?
St. Germain: A traveler.  Only, half here.  Not allowed to speak the truth.
Not allowed to act upon reality.  Yet one who knows all... That
about covers it.
Hector     : I see.  Not allowed to speak the truth...
St. Germain: Please forget everything I have told you. (holds up hands and
speaks with gestures) A traveler merely passes through, touching
nothing, changing nothing.  But, there is one thing I can tell
you.
Hector     : What is that?
St. Germain: I feel a new destiny flowing out of you.  Walk the path that is
meant for you without fear... For you are no longer alone...
(Hector stand speechless)
St. Germain: (content with the words he just spoke) Give my regards to Zead
when you see him.
(St. Germain tips his hat as the barrier around the clock tower fades and he
starts to teleport away)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ Trevor Hunts the Devil Forgemaster
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: Upon entering the room in the far northeast of the Aiolin Ruins
(Isaac and Trevor are engaged in a battle as Hector enters.  Trevor dodges the
first strike but Isaac manages to scratch him across the chest with the side of
a blade at the end of his Chauve-Souris spear.  Trevor retaliates by latching
his whip around Isaac's spear thereby locking it in place for a second.)
Trevor: You are not without skill.
(Trevor throws up Isaac's spear then quickly kicks Issac away.  Abel dashes
toward Trevor from the air, but Trevor quickly tosses throwing knives at Abel
making Abel fall back and hold his shoulder in pain.  Isaac looks toward Trevor
with a look of disgust as the two prepare to battle once more.  Trevor strikes
his whip toward Issac and the whip latches onto the Chauve-Souris spear.
Trevor pulls Isaac to the left then jerks him to the right causing Issac to
fall to his knees.  Isaac looks toward Trevor with a look of hate as Trevor
swings his whip toward Isaac.  Isaac backflips away as the whip strikes the
ground, breaking the concrete.  Trevor strikes again but Isaac quickly flips to
the side as Trevor's whip misses and plows up concrete once again.  Isaac lands
next to his spear and quickly rolls toward it narrowly missing another whip
strike.  Isaac grabs the spear while rolling and quickly stands back up.)
Isaac : Ha!  You vanquished Lord Dracula by a fluke, a mere twist of fortune.
Yet I grant, you are adept. (looks to the side) Hector!?
(Isaac rushes toward Trevor and tries to hit him with the side of his spear as
Trevor blocks the attack, but Issac counters with a kick to Trevor's chest.
Isaac spins his spear and backs off)
Isaac : I need not linger here any longer.  I've gotten what I need.  But mark
me well... (a portal appears below Isaac) I will slay both of you,
without fail.  Without fail... (fades away)
Trevor: So he escaped... (looks toward Hector) He fled when he saw you.  There
can be no doubt of it then.  You are indeed his enemy.
Hector: Just as I told you when we first met.
Trevor: Be that as it may, I am the one who shall vanquish him.  Your meddling
is unwelcome.  Leave him to me. (walks away)
Zead  : Pity.  How unfotunate.
(Hector looks over his shoulder as Zead appears)
Zead  : Such a rare opportunity.  Squandered...
(Hector turns his head back around while facing away from Zead)
Hector: On the contrary.  To obtain the vengeance I seek, Isaac must be slain
by my hand alone.  Ergo, nothing was lost.
Zead  : Think you so?  Then you shall be glad to know where he is bound.
Hector: (turns around) And where might that be?
Zead  : The castle ruins where we first met.  Do you remember the place?
Hector: How could I forget?
Zead  : Well said.  At the top of those ruins, there is a hidden chamber.  T'is
there you shall find him.
Hector: Then that is where I must go.  (walks away then stops) Ah, I'd almost
forgotten... Saint Germain gives you his regards.
Zead  : (curious) Saint Germain, you say?  Did you meet him in the clock tower?
Hector: Just so.  He pledged he would no longer interfere in this matter.
Zead  : (holds up hand and walks to the side trying to deny what he heard) It
cannot be... No, that is not possible... I must make haste to complete
the final touches.  I beg your leave.  Adieu. (rushes off quickly)
(Hector watches suspiciously as Zead departs)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ Trevor Tests Hector's Abilities
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: Before Trevor 2 boss fight
(Trevor turns around to look)
Trevor: Is that you Hector?
Hector: It is.  I was told a hidden chamber lies benath this castle.  Isaac is
there now.
Trevor: What!?  That's not possible.  In order to open the passage to that
chamber, the blood of my clan must... (realizes something) Oh, so that
is why he fought me earlier.
Hector: (steps forward) What is it, Belmont?
Trevor: It cannot be avoided.  You must show me just how much power you've
gained.
Hector: Wait. (raises hand and backs off) I have no reason to fight you.
Trevor: This is your reason!  Defend yourself! (rushes toward Hector)
Battle dialogue:
Holy Power!  Die!  Weak!  Alright!  Impossible!
If Trevor beats you:
So, this is the best the Devil Forgemaster can do?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ The Belmont Blood is the Key
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: After Trevor 2 boss fight
Hector performs a roundhouse kick that narrowly misses Trevor as Trevor flips
away from him)
Trevor: (looks up) It's as if you're an entirely different person.  (gets up
from crouching) So, this is your true strength...
Hector: (slightly angered) Why did you attack me?
Trevor: The place to which Isaac has gone can only be entered by those who
possess very advanced powers.  I had to test you. (holds up hand)
Hector: I see.  Meaning, you would have me pursue him?
Trevor: Indeed.  But first you shall need my help.  Come!
(Trevor leads Hector toward the center of the room.  Trevor pulls out a dagger
from his belt and grabs the blade of the dagger with his other hand.  He
quickly jerks his right hand down the dagger in order to cut his hand.  He
holds out his fist and lets his blood drip on the carpet.  The blood shimmers
then a portal forms where the blood once lay.)
Trevor: (stares downward) There.  T'is done.
Hector: So, the Belmont blood acts as a key... And what lies beyond this point?
Trevor: Do not ask.  If you knew, your heart might waver.  For know, hold the
image of Isaac in your mind.  Think only of defeating him.
Hector: Very well.
(Hector steps into the middle of the portal)
(Hector starts to fade)
Trevor: Hector... Hunt him down.  And when you have him, (shakes head) show him
no mercy.

++ Dracula's Castle Revived
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++ CUTSCENE: After Dullahan boss fight
(The engraving on the floor in the center of the room where Hector fought
Dullahan starts to glow)
Hector: (steps back) What is this?
(The engraving lights up more as a crumbling sound is heard.  Both Hector, in
the Infinite Corridor, and Trevor, in the Abandoned Castle, look around in
shock.  The scene shifts to the ocean in the Mortvia Aqueduct as a storm rages
and Tsunamis start to form.  A bridge is shown rising up out of the water
followed by a full view of Dracula's Castle connected to the bridge as
lightining strikes in the background to foreshadow this unseen turn of events)
(Back in Infinite Corridor)
Hector: This enormous power... Dracula's Castle?
(Back in the Abandoned Castle)
Trevor: (looks around concerned) Have I arrived too late?
Trevor: (suddenly leans forward from pain) Groah!
(A dagger is shown exiting Trevor's chest from a backstabbing.)
Trevor: Fiend!  What are you doing here?
(screen zooms out to show Isaac holding Trevor from behind)
Isaac : I can't have you interfering beyond this point.  I left that seal to
Hector.
Trevor: Impossible... The seal cannot be undone, except by a torrent of demonic
energy.  Hector could not know that...
(Isaac looks to the side and grins then plunges the dagger deeper into Trevor's
chest as Trevor yells.)
Isaac : Do not equate a devil forgemaster's power with that of an ordinary
sorceror.  For a seal like that, the magic produced in battle is more
than enough.  Placing a guard there proved to be your downfall.
Trevor: (sounds of pain)
Isaac : Enough talk. (kisses the back of Trevor's head)  Time to die!
(Isaac quickly yanks the dagger out of Trevor's back and let's Trevor fall to
the ground.  Trevor falls to his knees then plunges to the floor as blood seeps
out from underneath his chest.)
(Isaac's laughing now fills the room and grows louder as the crumbling insues
throughout the room.)

++ CUTSCENE: As Hector approaches Dracula's Castle
(Hector walks along the bridge to Dracula's Castle then stares up as the camera
scrolls out to show the castle with a full moon in the background)
(Julia walks up behind Hector while talking)
Julia : Before you stands Dracula's castle...
Hector: Aye.
Julia : The curse that was unleashed 3 years ago still emanates from it.  Does
this mean the source of th
