Schirmen couldn't tell how long he had spent by this ruined wall. He knew the Sun had risen while he was here and that it had been dark when he sat down. It was about mid day, maybe within two or three hours of it? There was only so long he could stay in one place. He was beginning to worry the moss would begin to grow on him soon.

He had stood up and walk around a little once or twice. Only to find burned down buildings and a little greenery. Where even was he? This wasn't Europe any longer, much as it resembled Schirmen's time. At least it wasn't Europe anymore.

Adjusting his hat The vampire hunter stood and began to walk around again. This wasn't where he had woken up originally maybe a week ago, longer, shorter? He didn't know, all he did know was that he had found something in this wasteland and he was loathed to let it go or leave it. It felt too similar to home. Was his home gone or was he gone and stuck here? Away from what little he had. For now he supposed he would have to find someone else here. He couldn't be the only one, and he reasoned someone must have to pass here eventually. So he tried to wait and keep himself occupied as best he could. This had to be Dracula's servant's work and the Belmont was adamant he wouldn't let them break him.

Mr. L was exploring the ruins of the once great... Hyrule, was it? That seemed to be what Luigi, Mr. L's former body, remembered it as from those Smash Tourneys. He didn't want to see the ruined Mushroom Kindom since it might bring sad thought to the man that wished to be better than that poor excuse for a green hero he was once a part of. To think though that a legendary land would be reduced to this state... Well, it wasn't time to think about that, Mr. L had to be alert, for some old creatures of the old Hyrule could come at any moment, turned by this disease. Mr. L of course knew being exposed too long could be dangerous so he brought a gas mask he created to repel the Starvia from samples he gathered. Of course he didn't really need it in this section since it wasn't too bad here but could never be too careful.

Then Mr. L noticed some human walking around and hid behind a wall in case it saw him and was corrupted... Then it hit him, I shouldn't be hiding like a scaredycat! That is what Luigi would do but not Mr. L! Mr. L bravely stepped out in front of the man. Mr. L should check if it is a survivor anyway. "Hello, what would a human like you be doing out here all alone?" Mr. L asked the vampire hunter.

[Deleted]

Schirmen was caught quite off guard by Mr. L and almost on reflex grabbed a weapon. He caught himself though and prevented this immediately becoming a fight. This guy obviously wasn't any servant of Dracula, he didn't have the look. His almost cold look returned to the socially stunted Hunter and he chuckled. "Human? Not everyday I get addressed by my species title. Am I to assume you are not human?" The Belmont chuckled again, quieter.

"However to answer your question I was transported nearby here and have been hoping to see some signs of life. As to why alone? I usually am so, Others are often a liability." He tried to remain civil but talking was not Schirmen's strongest point and he came off a little rude. He obviously wasn't convinced others were a liability ether, he was simply repeating what his father had told him time and again to make him stronger.

Shifting his posture slightly so he looked less ready to attack Schirmen put his left hand in his pocket. He was very curious about this man. "I am Schirmen Belmont, Might I enquire as to who you are?" the Vampire hunter asked, trying to remain civil as best he could. This place was still putting him off though. It was disconcerting to stand in a place that reminded him so of home but was destroyed so thoroughly.

[Coolshaymin]

Mr. L wasn't really put off by the rude comments, Dimentio insulted him every so often so he was used to verbal abuse. Mr. L looked up and down the vampire hunter to do a check if he could be useful to him. "I am human, I just had no clue what to call you." Mr. L explained looking him up and down, Mr. L still had traits of Luigi's kindness. Mr. L takes the Transported thing without questioning since he had an idea how he was transported. "Whoever told you that must of never met me." Mr. L stopped scanning when he judged it was time to do his introductions, "You want to know who I am? Fine, I'll tell you! I am the Green Thunder, the green thunder that will strike like Lightning, I am... Mr. L!" Mr. L says after a few fancy poses. Mr. L unlike Luigi had a slight ego problem.

[Deleted]

Schirmen's face didn't change but there was a hint of surprise at how Mr.L was introducing himself. It was like watching a child talking about being a hero, with all the posing and the far too long for it's own good title. He remained calm though, a simple "I see" Was all that passed his lips. Schirmen was beginning to get the impression that he was talking to someone who he shouldn't take at face value, as silly as he seemed his had a confidence to him that wouldn't be normal for a weak man. WIth so few people about this one had to have some ability.

"Perhaps you can show me these lightning like strikes some time?" Schirmen enquired, interested in this claim, though unable to take it entirely at face value. He would need some proof at least. there was a slight pause as the vampire hunter was reminded of where he was. "So, where is here?" He asked, fairly simply, as if expecting this Mr.L to know.

[Coolshaymin]

"Sure thing, the Green Thunder is always up for demonstrating his talents, but that will have to wait." Mr. L commented before giving a confused look, "You don't know? Am I the first sign of life you've seen here?" Mr. L inquired but decided to answer this lost guy's question first. "You are in the ruins of the Kingdom that was quite famous known as Hyrule. It was transported to this world with others and people of all kinds when this place we call Li was created." Mr. L thinks for a few seconds then continues, "Not exactly safe to talk in the open like this. Come, I found some shelter we could go to while I answer your questions," Mr. L suggested, not wanting to be taken offguard by any of Hyrule's monsters.

[Deleted]

Schirmen frowned lightly in a confused look. Hyrule? Li? He didn't know what ether of these places were and this worried the hunter a little. He really had been transported to a lost world. At least this meant earth was likely still safe. Taking this into consideration Schirmen nodded. "Okay, Lead the way, if it is dangerous we should be careful." The hunter agreed, not wishing to run into danger blindly. "Also yes, I have seen no-one else yet. I haven't been here long" He explained to Mr.L, Probably being too trusting of this stranger. He didn't like being alone in this strange place and Mr.L was the only life he had seen since he arrived, it was too important to pass up.

As for right now even without his usual wish to give people the benefit of the doubt Schirmen was going to have to trust this strange man, he was the only source of information the lost hunter had and survival could rely upon whether Schirmen got to safety or not, especially since Mr.L had wished to not talk in the open for fear of something. Fear of what though the hunter couldn't be sure about.

[Coolshaymin]

Mr. L led him to a castle and ushered him into the dungeons, "The castle was not in as good condition as it used to be but the dungeons were in decent conditions. Mr. L didn't say anything til in the room, "Okay, I doubt anything would come to the castle at this time..." Mr. L then looked back to the lost hunter, after looking outside, "Okay, before I explain anymore, I want some information as well." Mr. L said, "Where do you come from and what did you do for a living?" Mr. L asked. He wasn't quite sure he trusted the strange man, but maybe if he comes to town with a decent survivor he was sure he would get some recognition. He also didn't want to just leave him here for he wasn't sure if he could fight if the situation came up and wanted to keep a clear conscious. The man didn't seem like he would lie especially if Mr. L was truly the first life he met here. Mr. L handed  Schirmen some Shroom Soda in case he was thirsty before he started, afterall he could use an ally, "Here, its a Shroom Shake, I got it as takeout. Its my favorite drink. You must be thirsty," Mr. L was doing research on Shroom Shakes so he could learn a way to use them in battle again, but right now he wanted to gain an ally before the chance slipped.

[Deleted]

Schirmen Followed his guide closely, feeling almost relieved when he was lead into the more enclosed area. He always felt more comfortable inside, it was more familiar. He watched Mr.L carefully before taking the can and looking at it slightly quizzically, confused by it. Shrugging this thought away the hunter Looked back to Mr.L "I'm a Belmont, A vampire hunting clan, I'm from Romania originally. I was trained to fight the Minions of Dracula and should the need arise the dread lord himself." He explained, not so sure about his ability to pull off that last bit. Schirmen never showed any extra pride in any of this statement and said it as if it meant no big deal, though more because he didn't feel that worthy of it.

The hunter's mind wandered back to the can which he began to check out. Pulling at the ring pull a little the hunter cracked open the tab, only to jump a little at the noise. "Good lord." He mumbled, getting over the surprise. For a second it had sounded like a weapon being drawn. cracking it open even more Schirmen heard the liquid inside. It didn't smell too great to the hunter but not wanting to offend his guide he tried a sip. It didn't immediately make him retch which was a good sign so he took a descent drink from it before lowering the strange metal container. "Thank you." He offered Mr.L, trying to work out exactly what he was drinking from, or what exactly it was he was even drinking.

[Coolshaymin]

Mr. L chuckled a little at the vampire hunter apparently never using a cn before. Never thought he'd see someone react to opening like that. "Your welcome. Belmont... Belmont... Where have I heard that name?" Mr. L thought for a few seconds... "Oh yeah! Can't say I've heard of Romania..." Though Mr. L says this he thinks his former half Luigi went somewhere like that, though he can't quite recall. "Anyway, can't say I've heard of a 'Dracula' but I've think I've heard of a Simon Belmont in town... Though, I've never met him and I don't know where he is at at the moment though..." Mr. L said in response.

[Deleted]

Schirmen thought about this. He was familiar with Simon, not personally but they had met at family events. He doubted Simon knew about him or his training, however it was strange to think that his cousin was here too. Schirmen did know not to worry about Simon though, he was much better trained and more able than Schirmen was.

"Simon's here? hmm, that is foreboding for our world." the hunter mumbled. After a moment though he looked up at Mr.L again. "Town? What town?" He asked, there was real civilization here, that was important. Schirmen would need to get there, someone might know a way back or something.

[Coolshaymin]

"Oh yeah, should've mentioned that! The people that came here has formed a group called the Smash Brothers. We have built an area called the Life Sphere that has became a place for Smash Bros and regular residents alike. It is a type of haven and is the only place safe from the Starvia," Mr. L explains to Schirmen, he was growing used to having to explain this to the newcomer and while he hasn't done much, Mr. L has had alot of free time to do research between working on his Brobot L-type and getting a good look at his surroundings.

[Deleted]

Shirmen nodded, a default action he usually did to let someone know he understood. Though this concept of Starvia confused him. Was it what had brought him here? Or was it this worlds version of Dracula's forces? "So, this life sphere is magically keeping this . . . threat away? Interesting, and just what are these Starvia? That isn't a very threatening name honestly. the Belmont asked simply, trying to keep this as easy to remember as possible, it seemed pretty vital. If he was up against monsters he would need to know as much as possible about them. Schirmen knew he wasn't skilled enough to face a large threat without some knowledge of it beforehand, at least not face it unprepared. There was just too much that could go wrong. The Belmont was becoming glad of his guide.

[Coolshaymin]

Mr. L chuckled a little at Schirmen's misinterpretation of the Life Sphere and calling the Starvia as a living being. This was really making Mr. L feel like the smartest guy on Li... Though this is probably a false thought. "The Life Sphere is not magic by any means. It is named so because its a glass bubble we made to keep the land inside the Sphere from dieing as well as the people. It also keeps monsters from entering the place. As for the Starvia... It is not really a monster persae. It is a type of contamination around us that can change or kill anyone not resistant or immune. That is why this place is like this, the corruption... Speaking of... You been out here a while, right? Here, put this on your face. Its a Lvia mask that will filter the Starvia, I want it back though. Its made by yours truly!" Mr. L says handing Schirmen a green Mouthpiece with a L and breating holes on it.

[Deleted]

Schirmen looked at Mr.L blankly, not wishing to interrupt but taking in what was said. So the life sphere was more of a container and Starvia was some illness, akin to vampirism maybe? He wondered almost mumbling it aloud. It made some sense, at least as much as could really be expected. Sounded like magic a simple container could hold back an illness to the Belmont, though he was polite enough to not feel the need to mention this.

When the mask was offered Schirmen seemed confused. So much was alien to him, he didn't understand any of this magic and to think Mr.L found it so simple was baffling. All the hunter saw was a green, strangely shaped blob. He didn't even know where to start with it. "Put it on my face?" He asked in a tone slightly akin to that of cook who had just been told you'd put spinach in a chocolate cake. Mild disbelief wasn't even the start of it.
