Cain thought for a moment, intently listening on what D had to say. A smirk graced his face, "Well. Isaac hm? I had been meaning to give him punishment, but he kept eluding me."
The dragon head suddenly snorted, green puffs almost clouding the room. It was indeed possessed. Cain knew what it wanted to say, but couldn't say it due to having no voice, or organs for that matter. He turned back to D, "I can help you out. Just stay out of my way. Seriously, I'm a cop too."
He flashed a hellish looking badge, "Guardian Bloodshadow, of the Hellguard. Impede my work and I'll see to it that you have a place in the walls of Hell too."
He hopped back into the window, or "ear", of the engine head and grabbed a few things, hopping out and turning to the giant train itself, "The train has left the station!"
The train turned and left the same way it had come in. It moved even without a conductor driving it. It was gone, leaving the demon to his devices... literally. He had schematics with him.

"Well that was... odd." The parasite said after Cain had gone to work.
"So what do we do now?" The parasite stated, for D was silent. And here he thought he would have gotten to fight. He was almost disappointed, but not quite. If this demon had a bone to pick with Isaac, aka. Bloodstorm then let him have at it. He wouldnt and didnt want to get in the way of two demons fighting it out.
D picked up the book that had been used to summon Cain and looked to Spearhead. "Mind if i keep this? Or were you partial to it?" D asked him as he held the book up.

"That thing gives me a bad vibe, it does. Then again, so do all the artifacts we collected."
Spearhead was about to say more, but was interrupted by the noise of construction. Specifically, Cain getting straight to work on an already half-finished machine. Cain wasn't called Hell's Engineer for nothing. He worked fast and all of his gadgets worked in record time.
(( He didn't leave, the train itself left. ))

((ah whoops lol well that was lefty not D hahah ill edit that post in a sec))
D nodded and kep the book for safe keeping, if Spearhead wanted it all he had to do was ask. D trusted the man enough for that. Taking a glance at Cains work, and after having a moment of jaw dropping amazement at the creatures speed, D looked back to Spearhead.
"Speaking of the artifacts im going to go find the Scythe. Mazz was working on it before, helping to teach it how to reap multiple souls. If BloodShadow is going to take care of Bloodstorm, then i can focus on saving Dag and killing Legion." D said to himself, more than anything.
D started leaving the room before he turned back to Spearhead. "You wouldnt know of anyway to extract Legion from Dag would you?" D asked on the off chance there was another way to save Dag.

Spearhead shrugged. He didn't have anything to say about that. Cain was still working, and who knew where the others were. It was Hell all over again.
Ozryel's Reaper materialized on D's back.

D nodded in response and turned to go find the Scythe when it found him. He felt the weight of it and even sensed its presence upon his back. That was handy, and a bit creepy.
"Welcome back. Was Mazz able to teach you what he needed to?" D asked the blade as he started heading out of Stormcrow Keep.

"Yes he did and he was very thorough about it."
The scythe didn't say anymore. It did pipe up when it "saw" something shiny over the horizon, "Is that another castle?"
It was indeed another castle, except this one was made of ice. It was shrouded by low storm clouds, giving it a very eerie effect. The castle itself wasn't as forboding as Hell's Gate, but it did look formidable. Oh great, more castle crashing.

"Not again..." D groaned. "Im not heading there yet. not until Cains finished with what he's doing. Id rather not get in his way at all." D said to the Scythe as they road on. D had mounted his horse quickly after leaving Stormcrow Keep. And he was currently headed towards the Safe Haven his sister had set up.
"I want to check on Dag first. Then we can head there." D stated to the blade. As the mountains tops came into view, both horse and rider became clad in shadow. Bursting into a swarm of bats horse and rider headed up the mountains peaks and to the cave Ivy was at.
Reforming D dismounted and approached the entrance. "Ivy its me."

Cain worked tirelessly on the supplies needed, and they were for every precaution he could think of. When he was done preparing, the demon put the schematics away. Now to go find the one who summoned him....
A noise caused him to pivot, unlatching the whip on his belt and using it to whip whatever startled him. It happened to be Mazz, and the vampire got the three lashes simultaneously across the face. The whip itself howled.
"Ow."
"Wolfgang."
"Cain."
Cain whipped him again. Mazz was going to question why he was being whipped, but was struck in the face again.

The howl of the whip raced across the wind and eventually reached the ears of an ex Master Vampire. Waking from his slumber he smirked at the familiar howl. "I know that noise..." Alucard said with a smile.
"November my pet, my love." Alucard purred to her as she slept besides him. "I will return to you. But that howl, and the feeling of something dark upon this plane has called my attention." Alucard said before he kissed her lips.
Leaving November behind Alucard headed in the direction of the sound, the whips second wielding gave away its position. "Oh whats going on in there?" Alucard said before he started running towards Silvercrow keep. He and November had been on the outskirts of the town near Silvercrow keep.
It wouldnt be until Mazz had been whipped a few more times that Alucard finally closed in on the Keep. The closer he got the more he could feel the Demonic power, dont ask how or why especially in this mortal form, but he could. "I can feel you.. your a powerful one arent you?" Alucard chuckled as he reached the Keeps doors.
Taking a break Alucard had to catch his breath. "I hate.. being... mortal.. " He huffed. "How the hell did Integra deal with it?"
After catching his breath Alucard raced inside and towards the sound of two voices ringing through the halls. When he saw the sight he went to Mazz's aid. "Who are you and why are you hitting him?" Alucard said as he came to stand infront of, and in the path of the whip, Mazzaker.

"Cain Bloodshadow, of the Hellguard."
He stopped the whip and flashed a badge, "You were going to be arrested for charges most unpleasant. Now that you reek of purity, I can't do that. Him... however... I can arrest. I'm just having fun."
Cain suddenly vanished in a burst of static, and reappeared behind Mazz. Tongues of Cerberus lashed thrice simultaneously down his back. He lashed out with a punch, but Cain caught it no problem. His fist wouldn't move; what was going on?
"Let me guess, you were hit with a Drain Blaster?"
Cain opened Mazz's trenchcoat and saw the hole in his abdomen, still healing, although painfully sluggish, "Well, I'm surprised you're still walking. Anyway, this'll make it much easier for me."
The golden demon slugged the wound three times, then suplexed the vampire to the floor. Cain grinned deviously. Typical demon.

"Wait a minute!" Alucard turned around and held up his hand. s**t he was powerless to stop all this wasnt he? "He's been really helpfull to me and the others lately. You cant take him. Not with that new castle on the rise and dont tell me i didnt see that, its right ******** there on the horizon. Which only means one thing, one of our old foes is back, which i can bet its Bloodstorm. Or another has risen. Either way well need him." Alucard said as he pointed to Mazz.

"That's not what a dhampir said when he summoned me."
Cain dropped backward, slamming into Mazz's chest in a piledriver move. He stood back up and pinned Mazz to the floor with a clawed foot. The vampire squirmed, attempting to get the heavy foot off. Cain applied more pressure, and Mazz stopped squirming.
"He said that one of their own was out of commission, so he called me and my expertise on souls and how to dispatch of them. My guess is that this is the one that was out of commission."
He dug the claws on his foot into Mazz's chest, drawing more blood. Cain's grin disappeared, "I'm also here to arrest Isaac and take him back to Hell. We're... somewhat on the same side."

"That sounds like my son, D. Hmm.. it seems ive been left out of the loop." Alucard pondered things for a minute. Just what has been going on while he was with November? Isaac was back then was he? Damn this wasnt going to be easy.
"Still do you have to beat up Mazz like that? Ive grown attached to him. But im powerless to stop you..." Alucard said with a frown. "Powerless to do anything anymore. I dont suppose youd be needed any help Mister....?" Alucard said as he extended his hand to Cain in a greeting.

"I already responded. You didn't hear the first time. Cain Bloodshadow... of the Hellguard."
Cain gripped Alucard's hand tighter than expected. Static jumped in between them. Seems this demon was very lively... literally. He seemed a bit more into his powers than Gabriel was. Cain eyed Alucard like a hawk watching his prey, "I don't need help... well... not from you anyway."
The demon's claw definitely felt unholy... and scaly. Was this what working with a demon felt like? Intense. His claws dug into Mazz further, causing him to cry out in agony. An electrical surge went down the demon's leg, and briefly shocked the vampire on the floor.
