Chapter 3
Catch A Quick Breathe
The cops and everyone else knew that these men aren't that human like some people
that where watching thought that they are some type of super heros and they can save
everyone from disastor. The president wanted alot of information about them if they
where going to help being friends or foes. No one really wanted them to become
bad because if they can survive an attack by fire and being slamed down by a huge
thing they knew it would take alot of stuff to try to get rid of them as it would be
easier to become friends so they wouldn't have to deal with it.
No information was sent except the one name that was heard with pictures taken they
only knew the man with the red jacket was known as Dante and he was about five,
nine foot while the other two looked to be two or less feet shorter then him. They
also know that the son wearing the blue is about somewhat known as the much mature
older brother. Some specialist think that they might be twins they also took blood samples
from the truck to see information on the blood type even though the blood was already
dead they still had a chance to get more information for the president.
While the officers and agents stood by the scene they notice that they started to
walk on. They knew that they where going to keep walking but the cops wanted
them to stay there for more information on them so another milatary officer spoke
out to catch them before they left. Sparda turned around while the others just
stopped moving.
"Sir!...Can you please tell me what was that, that came out of the ground?" The officer
said as he walked up to Sparda.
Vergil and Dante looked at eachother then looked at the man as he walked up to
their father. Sparda folded his arms looking at the man.
"You don't need to know." Sparda said.
The officers known the two sons standing there the one named Dante started to have
an reaction through his arm, Dante started to pull violently at his left arm Vergil and
Sparda didn't even know it was happening. One of the paramedics came out Vergil
knew it was the same one from before. Vergil got very confussed
until he looked over and saw Dante pulling at his arm.
"Dante what is it?" Vergil asked in worry.
Sparda turned as he saw a man wearing white come up to them. Vergil told his dad that
he was a paramedic so Sparda aloud him to come closer. Dante felt like his arm was
being crushed the pain was so much that he took out one of his guns and pointed it at
his left arm. The paramedic grabbed the gun Dante looked up at the man.
"That wont make it feel better, it'll just make it worse trust me." The paramedic said.
Dante placed the gun back and just stood there as the pain gotten worst. The paramedic
checked the arm for any type of fracker or broken bones, the arm was turning red.
Vergil watched as the paramedic checked Dantes arm. Dante didn't like the feeling
he was feeling from his arm so he looked very not patient of waiting.
"Oh, I see." The paramedic said.
"See what?" Vergil said.
"WHAT?!" Dante said in pain.
The paramedic grabbed the upper shoulder while he was still holding the wrist
Dante was shocked of not knowing what he meant by that but the way he grabbed his
shoulder he thought he was going to litterly pull it off. Sparda was worried
so was Vergil they didn't know what he was going to do.
"You pulled your arm out, so be still." The paramedic said.
"Ohhh, ok." Dante said in relief.
"Be still I have to put it back this might hurt alittle." Tha paramedic said.
The paramedic popped the arm back in Dante quinched when it snapped back in
to place. The pain soon faded from his arm and the color soon came back to normal.
The paramedic checked to see if it was ok to be moved and he gave the ok.
"Thanks again kid...whats your name?" Dante asked.
"I'm Rick...sorry not telling you that before." Rick said.
"No you don't...I'm Dante and I thank you for caring for people." Dante said.
"That's my job." Rick replied.
"Well mine is demon hunting." Dante said.
The agents listened into their talk the officers didn't understand why he would talk
to that guy but it was probaly because they only talk to people they can trust and it
looked like they trusted that man. The officers tried to get him
to asked them questions but they couldn't reach him.
"Rick, that's my bro...Vergil he takes care of me too so you don't really need to be
here for me...plusly when bad guys show up I don't want to be the one trying to save
you." Dante said.
Rick smiled and looked over at the truck to where his co-workers where. Then
looked back at Dante.
"Thats right you have to do your job, as much as I got to do my job." Dante said.
"So are you going to help people also?...I'm just wondering." Rick asked.
"I do...I just keep it secret...you know." Dante said.
Dante patted Ricks shoulder and started to walk on. As Vergil walked by he stopped
and looked at him.
"Thanks Rick for seeing it before I did...Your a really good kid." Vergil said.
"Your welcome, it's my job." Rick said with a smile waving him goodbye.
Sparda tapped him on the shoulder Rick turned around and saw a man standing there
looking at him.
"Thanks for helping my son...I promise that we'll be here for you, as you where here
for them." Sparda said in gradatude to Rick.
"Your very welcome sir." Rick said.
Sparda looked back at him with a smile then went on walking on behind following
his sons. Rick felt very special that he did do something right, he started to think that
they where saviors of the world and they can make a difference.
He first thought bad but now it's all good he smile as he watched them leave as
he knew that some day he will see them again in the future. He walked back to
the truck that was completely destroyed and his co-workers.
"So Rick how was it talking to non-humans?" His co-worker Tom asked.
"You can think that Tom but I'll tell you this I just made the best save of a life time."
Rick said.
Tom and the others laughed.
"Yeah you guys can laugh now but I'll be the one laughing next time." Rick said.
They all looked at eachother then quickly looked at Rick with worried looks on
their faces.
"Rick what they tell you?" Tom asked.
"What do you mean next time...theres going to be a next time?" His other co-worker
Jackie said.
Rick just laughed and hopped back into the truck as the others got in to the truck also
and drived away. While the agents wrote down all the information that was told
and now they only have a few more mysterys from what they don't know.
The agents sent more information that they where family and that the one named
Dante was a demon hunter they kinda thought if he was one that it meant his brother
was one also. They also sent information that the other son was named Vergil and he
protected his brother which they took as a younger brother. They don't really have
any information on their father yet but the mystery comes to be more different
then before. The president is still asking for more information on them.
While they make it halfway down the street a truck pulled infront of them and a few
men came out with equipment that they never seen before but Dante isn't that stupid
and knew that they where going to try getting them to go inside that truck. Dante
walked forward and waved for Vergil and his dad to stay put. So they stopped
and watched Dante as he walked up to the men as they stood there.
"Your asking for it." Dante said to the men.
One of the men walked up to Dante as the others stayed still.
"We just want you to answer a few simple questions." The man said.
Dante tilted his head then swayed his arm to his handle of the sword on his back.
With a slight smile the man jumped back in fear.
"I'm tired of answering your stupid questions...Out of my way or answer to the
sword." Dante threatened the men that where standing there.
They all started to walk back to the truck and they moved away. Dante looked
back at his brother then smiled. Vergil nodded his head as they went on to the town.
"Your so out of it." Vergil complimented to Dante.
"Thanks for thinking that way bro." Dante replied.
As they got close to the town the agents got more desprite to stopping them from
getting there. Dante watched ahead as the people placed road blocks on the road.
Dante laughed in reason of why they where doing that it wasn't like they where
cars coming through town. Vergil didn't understand why he laughed until he saw ahead
of the road.
"They just got more stupid or do they think that's going to stop us?" Dante said to Vergil.
"Bro they lost it...hehe." Vergil replied.
"Just you two don't do anything worsier than that." Sparda said to both of them.
Both Vergil and Dante laughed as they listened to him. They came up to the road
block there where alot of people there blocking the road. Dante thought it was funny
but it didn't cause him to stop moving. With a slight kick the road
block was gone but they still had to get the people out of the way so Vergil took
off his sword and just dropped it down by his side giving a look at the people to kill
Dante was also holding his sword the people where frightened about them and the
faces they saw from them just made the people run for the hills.
"See dad they just run." Dante said looking back at his father.
Vergil and Dante slapped hands and started to move on while Sparda followed them
from behind he spotted a trap. Sparda walked past his sons telling them to stay so
they stopped walking and watched him. Sparda knew about this trap the tree was
way off it looked like its been taken off its roots. Sparda walked slowly up to the
point where the tree was he swiftly kicked the side of the base of the tree Dante
and Vergil saw the tree not fall but it looked like the tree was back up right and
didn't look like it was going to fall which it did look like it would. Dante and Vergil
didn't understand what he was doing but it seemed like something wasn't right to
Dante he smelt the air and it was filled with thick blood.
"Demons." Dante said.
"What?" Vergil replied to Dante.
"I can smell them...there are many of them." Dante answered.
Vergil looked back at his father and then looked around for anything that shouldn't
be there. Dante just stood there not worried at all and watched his dad as he stood
over there near that tree. Soon Dante felt a cold breeze pass him through the air it
was heading to the town. Dante turned to Vergil and pulled on his jacket to tell him
to follow. Passing their father Vergil tells him to follow also.
"Dad!...Dante senses something headed to the town." Vergil said.
As they follow Dante they stopped immediatly when Dante stopped. Dante turned
and looked back at them as they stayed there. Vergil didn't want the same thing
happen again so he took his sword and held it poistioned to
attack. Sparda was already ready for anything to come.
"Wait...I think it stopped." Dante said.
"Where did it stop?" Vergil asked Dante.
Dante looked around the place to where they were standing then looked back at
them with a slight move on the ground would cause a mistake so he tried not to
move. Vergil and Sparda watched Dante as he moved really slow so they didn't
move. Dante looked at the ground.
"He's below." Dante whispered.
"What?" Sparda said.
Dante pointed down at the ground. Sparda didn't really like the fact of them attacking
from below, he just thought it was a waste of time so he stabbed his sword straight
into the ground causing an big blast of electricity flowing through the ground the
demon that was in the ground shot out and landed on a branch looking down at them
Sparda looked up at him so did Dante and Vergil.
"Good shot dad." Dante said.
"Your suppost to be dead!" The demon said pointing at Sparda as they stood there
watching him.
"We'll look who just got out of a closet..." Dante taunted the demon in the tree.
The demon grinned and pointed behind them Sparda turned around and there
where about a hundred more demons coming out of the ground.
"You better hope they can stop me from slaying you." Dante said as he pointed his
gun up at him.
"Your dead!" The demon yelled.
The demon jumped down from the tree as Dante fired at him it caused him to fly
back into the base of the tree. All the other demons srpung into action and Vergil
was getting attack by five demons at once while Sparda was getting attacked by ten
Dante was just fighting that one. The FBI agents watched from a distance taken
notes on what they do that would be impossible for humans to do which were alot
of them the fire and electricity and the high air jumps which they never seen before
and their fist lit up with fire they didn't understand the reason of them stopping, they
thought that they stopped in a position then waited for a time to punch but when they
did the demons flew far enough that was impossible for a human to do. They sent the
information to the government to give to the president he was stunned thinking that if
they could do that what will it be to attacked by them. The president couldn't refuse
the fact so he wanted to meet them up in person to see if they will sign a treaty on
being alias. The problem of it was that they couldn't tell them now because it seemed
like they didn't wanted to bothered at that time. Since they where fighting anyway so
he told them to wait then ask.
"Dante watch your back!" Vergil said.
Dante looked quickly behind him and saw more demons creeping up behind him,
So he switched from the guns and jumped high enough and came quickly back down
to the ground with a big slash from his sword the agents were more impressed by
Dante and how he jumps high doing impossible tricks like a pro with guns and amazingly
he jumps so high then somewho comes back down with a sword. It blew them away all
the three demons that where sneaking up behind him where now gone. The agents
wanted to know more about him about his moves where different from
the others. Honestly they couldn't keep there eyes on all of them so they had
three writers watch one of each and write on them. So they wouldn't be
lost in differences about each other.
Dante stood there with the sword in his right arm up on his shoulder while the
other hand held a black gun. Amazing they thought of how can he use them at the
same time this was the same thing that made Vergil and his dad confussed.
They didn't even know how he can do it but Dante knew that every second can
be made by mistakes which he didn't want to happen so he took all of his energy
and used it to give him the right ways of using his techniques.
Dante watched as the demon stood there looking at him in an odd way until he
moved again to attack. Dante did a back flip to retreat the attack the demon pulled
but he came back with a devastating attack that caused all the other demons
to look. Sparda and Vergil stood there and watched as the demons slowly backed
away from them and turn to Dante as he stood there.
The demon couldn't move fast enough to break from the attack as Dante quickly
slamed his fist into his gut then the demon moved so fast to the ground he felt the
ground leave him as Dante quickly came around and upper cutted him to the sky the
power of the Ifrit was to strong that the demon couldn't catch any movement from
Dante. When he came back to the ground Dante was standing there with his gun in
his hand pointing directly at the spot where he landed his gun soon lit up with electricity
the demon just stood there and watched as the electricity flowed through his arm
down to the gun. Dante smiled at him the demon knew that he was going to pull the
trigger so he tried to make a break for it but before he can Dante pulled the trigger
and the blast hit him from the back causing him to explode.
"Sweet dreams." Dante said as he pulled the trigger.
The other demons where so mad at Dante as he just stood there they started to move
towards him with grinns on their faces. Dante looked up at them as they came closer.
Dante lifted his hand and taunted them to come closer. Two demons jumped for him
but he quickly dodged to the left and did a kick thirteen causing the demon hit the
ground hard. The other demon was just standing there but Dante didn't allow
him to move as he took out his twin guns and jumped over him in an upside down
fall he spun above the demon and opened fire the agents were amazed. They
didn't now how he was doing that and how was he staying up there that long. Then he
came quickly down with a slash with his sword cutting the demon in half.
He held the sword close to his body in a upright position then he through it the sword
flew like a boomarang toward the demon that was about ten feet infront of him even
without the sword he took out his guns and opened fired again the sword flew back to
him and was back on his holster that was on his back which also stunned
the agents they didn't see him put it back on the holster its just like it landed back
there by itself. Dante switched back to the sword then with a quick movement the
agents felt the ground shake as he drived the sword fast straight through
one of the demons. Then by the drop of the demon he was the only one standing.
Placing the sword back he looks at his dad and Vergil and smiles. Vergil was so
stunned of how fast he was moving that he never knew that, that
demon was the last one.
"Did you see that I never seen that in my whole life that was amazing!" One of the
agents said.
"Yeah, I never thought it was over that quick...We have to send that information
in pronto." The other agent replied.
While over where they are...
"Brother I admit you don't really need any help with that skill." Vergil
complimented to Dante.
"Thanks, but I still think we should really keep moving before he sends more of
his men out." Dante replied to Vergil.
"Yeah, we really gotta keep moving cus...I feel like something or someone is
watching us." Vergil replied.
They made it to the town and walked out on the streets knowing that some time
then there was going to be an attack on them but they didn't know when. Only
Dante knew it when it comes but there was nothing Vergil looked around
so did Dante. Sparda had a bad feeling about the town that he felt before they
even got there. He walked infront of them and waved them to stay put so they did.
Sparda felt a really bad feeling about the place and he knew that what ever this
boss has it was much more powerful than the other demons they fought Sparda
could only tell by the power level it has and to him the level was as high as his
last battle with Mundus and it meant that this must be him or someone far
greater then him. Dante and Vergil stood there wondering what their father
was up to but it was clueless to them but Dante knew it was going to be trouble.
"Father I sense something coming from the ground under that building over there."
Dante said.
Sparda looked at Dante then turned to the building both Dante and Vergil stood
and waited to be singled to move. Sparda didn't understand of why it would be
coming from the building but it meant trouble very bad, he turned to sons
and shook his head Dante knew his dad didn't want them to help but, Vergil
didn't care cause if it was that powerful he still wanted to help knowing that it
could be faital to do it alone. Vergil understood how powerful his dad was but, he still
didn't care knowing the fact of him dieing would mean much more to him so he
stood in position to attack Dante watched at Vergil knowing he was going to ignore
what their father just told them so Dante took the side of his brother in the stance
they stood the agents watched in distance they didn't know what they were
doing until they saw the building crash down to its foundation.
"My Sons...DON'T HELP!" Sparda ordered his sons.
Dante and Vergil still kept their ground but also listened to him staying in attack
mode they knew not to intrude in the fight but if it came down to the point of that
he needs help they were ready. Sparda stood there waiting for the demon to come
forward out of the dust a shadow came towards Sparda as he came closer he
became more visible the black cape and red eyes shown through the dust
Spardas eyes widened as he came closer.
...It couldn't be...could it?... Sparda said in his head.
Amazingly Sparda reconized the guy quickly he turned to his sons and signed them
to get far but, Dante and Vergil didn't want to leave the place so they jumped into
the air and hid in the trees. The agents lost sight of them but they
had a good eye on Sparda and the demonish guy coming from the building.
Everything that happened had been written down by the agents and sent to the
president piece by piece. What they heard next was information to close half of the case
the demon came out and stood about ten feet away from Sparda.
"So we meet again...Legendary Dark Knight...Sparda." The demon said.
Sparda tilted his head then shown a slightly smile towards the man.
"This will be the last time...Creave." Sparda remarked.
"Will see about that." Creave replied.
"Creave??" Dante questioned himself.
Dante looked at Vergil, Vergil shrugged his shoulders in response of not knowing
who he was. Confusing as it sounded but it was bad Dante knows this guy means
trouble and it wouldn't end so pretty. Vergil shook his head at
the situation that his dad was in.
"Hey Vergil?...Do you think dad can possiblely stop this guy?" Dante asked.
"I don't know...but, lets hope he can." Vergil replied smiling back at Dante.
Dante felt a cold sensation go down his back, he shook and grabbed his shoulders
and rubbed them Vergil looked at him with a slight of a worry look on his face
he moved closer to him.
"What's the matter?" Vergil asked.
"I just got a cold chill go down my back." Dante replied.
Vergil now looked at him with a slight of a smile, then patted his back.
"What?" Dante asked.
"Nothing." Vergil replied.
Dante knew that Vergil was keeping something secret from him but he didn't know
what but it scared him to think about it. Dante felt another chill and started to look
around the place more.
"What is it bro?" Vergil said.
"Nothing." Dante replied.
Dante didn't want to tell his brother about feeling another cold chill cause then he
thought Vergil was going to say something about it again and he would of got another
chill. So he kept looking around the area for the reasoning of the chill Dante knew
that there was something near by and it didn't seem good at all. Vergil looked at
Dante and nodded his head and looked back down to where his father was. Dante
quickly turned around to see behind him knowing he might of sensed
something coming up behind them as they hid in the tree on a high branch Vergil
looked back at Dante not knowing he was turned the other way Dante quickly turned
to look the other way and before he knew it...smack...Dante smacked his lips onto Vergils
a quick response from Vergil he grabbed the tree branch as he felt his foot slip
while grabbing the branch Dante tired to remove his lips by moving backwards
but he soon felt his feet slip so he grabbed onto his brothers jacket Vergil felt his body
being pulled towards his brother Vergil felt his body go weak as he felt Dantes leg push
up onto his crouch area he lost grip onto the tree. Vergil fell two branches below
while Dante got caught on the first branch. Dante was looking down at Vergil as
he was looking up.
"What the fuck was that?!" Dante asked.
"I don't want to know." Vergil responded.
Vergil got back up on his feet and looked up as Dante sat on the branch above him.
Vergil climbed up and sat next to him as he sat there strange as it sounds Dante was
not pissed off he was very confussed first he was looking for the reason of
where the chill was coming from then he some how got in that odd position.
Dante looked at Vergil in confussion while Vergil was still looking down at their
father as he stood there. It was silence between them it caused
a very bad drift of fear flowing through the air Vergil and Dante sensed it.
"I'm sorry." Dante replied.
"For what?" Vergil asked. Looking at him as he sat next to him.
"For cursing at you for no reason." Dante answered.
"You don't have to." Vergil responded.
Dante felt so stupid of what just happened and it happened because he was freaking
out about something very stupid. Vergil patted him on the back.
"Accendents happen." Vergil said as he was still watching dad and the demon guy
standing there.
Dante looked at Vergil then looked down at the demon guy rubbing the back of his
neck in confussion of what just happened he thought that Vergil would of been
mad at him not nice acting to him it was weird for Dante but just then Dante felt a
strong energy flow by he knew it was trouble he jumped to the nearest tree near
their dad he watched patiently as they stood there looking at each other Dante
wondered its been five minutes or ten minutes why haven't they started fighting
yet it was like they where waiting for a sign or signal from something or someone
which Dante thought that strange ora that flew by was the sign.
Just then Sparda reached for his sword and tilted to the side in a position that really
was unkown to do that confussed the demon it made it difficult for him he didn't
know where and when he was going to attack that was the one thing the demon
knew about Sparda he always tricked them no matter how strong you are
he still overpowers the opponent by more experience in fighting. Dante and Vergil
watched closely as the demon guy started to make his move he lifted off the ground
with a big surge of wind the ground started to crack beneath him Sparda smiled then
charged so fast before the demon set a curse on him that was one thing Sparda didn't
like evil spells that where casted to others so he jumped so high that he came down
with a strong force that pushed the demon back down to the ground he even went
about five feet into the ground by the attack. Spardas fists lit up with fire Dante knew
he was going to hit him with the fire but also with the electricity even though his hands
lit on fire his arms were electricity the power was greater then Dantes and Vergils the
demon came out and hit Sparda with a surge blast that only made him move a couple
feet back but he came back at the guy with an uppercut and swung around with a
high kick that did alot of damage to the guy he fell down and got up on to his
knees he started to laugh Sparda tilted his head in confussion Dante knew why
he was laughing it was the only way they can overpower the person they're
fighting it confusses them and then they attack from behind.
"DAD DON"T FALL FOR THAT LAUGH!" Dante yelled out.
Sparda knew right away it was a trap of his and swung around with the sword the
demon jumped back but not quick enough that it made a big slice arcoss his torso
that was only two inches deep he held the wound and looked
back up at the trees then turned back to Sparda.
"I...see,...you have...(cough)..help." The demon said softly and slow.
Looking in anger at Sparda he lifted up and soon the slice was gone completely.
Dante was surprised he knew what he was doing and what type of tricks that demon
can pull Dante knew how to kill them and he was more worried about dad knowing
about the problem he's going to have to deal with. Dante jumped out of the tree and
slowly walked up behind the demon Sparda looked at Dante as he just walked up to
him and the demon didn't even notice about him being there. Sparda didn't want to
say anything or make any faces to give up that Dante was behind him but before
Dante got close enough to kill him he took his guns and lifted them up pointing
at the back of his head.
"You know I really gotta say something about you,..." Dante said.
The demon guy turned around and stood there in shock of why he didn't know he
was there.
"I really don't like you guys and you can visit your friends when I'm finished with you."
Dante said.
Sparda looked at Dante as he kept a straight face at the demon which that was the
reason of them being so scared of him and also angry. Dante made a quick glance
at his dad, Sparda knew that his son was telling him to do something but he didn't
really understand but then he knew Dante was making the demon look at him so that
he can attack him more easily. Spardas arm lit up with fire the agents thought that
what they were seeing was some type of family help what they never usually see
real familes do they usually tell others to stay out of fights but it seemed to them that
Dante did that for one reason he knew how to attack that type of demon, surprise
and he won't see it coming. Dante smiled at the demon the demon growled and
crouched down to attack Dante but before he got to attack forgetten about
Sparda behind him. The demon didn't even sense it coming from behind he was so
into the fact of attacking Dante but Sparda stricked hard through the chest of the
demon he punched right through the demon the agents jumped back by they're
reaction to the type of attack they never thought of seeing that happen in real life
but it did happen and they had film to prove it can be done but you have to
be a strong hitter.
The demon dropped dead where it stood. Dante smiled at his father then looked
over to where Vergil was the agents never saw where he came from but he was
standing right there infront of them. Sparda nodded his head.
"Don't worry dad I know about those demons, I faced alot of them before and I
survived." Dante said.
"It's not only that you know how...You always have to be ready...Failing to that
you'll die." Sparda replied.
"Dad, don't worry about him...I'm watching over him." Vergil respond.
"No I worry about both of you, and fouling around can cause mistakes...I don't
want any mistakes understand?" Sparda replies with a questioning remark.
They both answered.
"Yes father I understand." Vergil and Dante replied.
They walked over to where their father was standing and standed right next to
him and waited for him to say something as he looked down at the ground.
Sparda looked back up at his two sons.
"Lets go." Sparda said.
They started to walk down the path as they came down the path to the where
two dark buildings stood. Dante stopped walking and felt pain in his upper chest
so he rubbed where the pain was looking back up at the path he sees that he was
far behind them.
"Damn, I got..to get..moving or...else." Dante said to himself with deep breathes.
The path infront of Dante soon became weiry and tall the trees looked like they
stretched to their limit and the path became more smaller and the colors started
to fade into red. Dante couldn't repel the pain that he was feeling he dropped
down to his knees and started to cough. When he coughed he felt as if he was
coughing up his own heart he gripped his chest every time. Looking back up he
knew they where long past gone.
"Uhhh...I...gotta get...moving." Dante said to himself with bigger breathes this time.
While where Vergil was he stopped walking telling his dad also he looks around
and seeing that Dante wasn't there.
"I knew something was missing." Vergil said.
"Where did he go?" Sparda asked.
"I'll go back, stay here just in case." Vergil replied.
Sparda stayed there and waited patiently. As Vergil headed quickly back down the
path he looked everywhere to where he could of gone to. Down the path straight
ahead from him Dante was trying to keep his body up but he fell down
onto the ground laying face down he still had grip on his chest still awake
he looked around as the vision became more intense Dante tried to see if it
was an illiusion but it wasn't soon he heard a voice from down the path he looked
up and saw Vergil.
"DANTE!" Vergil yelled.
Dante tried to speak but he couldn't only his eyes where moving which Vergil
knew he can hear him. The pain was so peircing that it kept Dante silent Vergil
carried him down the path to where Sparda was Vergil looked at Dantes
face and tried to talk to him but Dante couldn't talk back but he still had the
grip on his chest to where the pain came from. Dantes eyes rolled shut.
Vergil knew this was bad and he needed some type of help he made it to father.
Sparda was shocked to see what he saw Vergil was carrying Dante he didn't knew
what happened.
"What happened?" Sparda asked Vergil.
"I don't know, I just got there and he was one the ground and he didn't speak
at all only his eyes where open." Vergil responded.
"Give him here." Sparda said.
Sparda took Dante into his arms Vergil was worried.
"Is he ok?" Vergil said.
"I have no clue...but whatever happened..." Sparda answered.
Sparda knew going on with this would deffinitly be a problem to take care of.
So he turned to his son Vergil.
"We must go back...until this is solved." Sparda insisted.
Vergil agreed of heading back to the house. The agents didn't understand of
what they where saying because they talked so low that it was heard as
mumbles. Then they disapeared in a red cloud. The agents wanted to know
where they were going so they got to work on the mumbles. They also
wanted to know what happened to Dante.
While back at the house Sparda laid down Dante on the couch Vergil sat next to
him. Dante started to open his eyes and turned to Vergil. Vergil noticed
he was awake again.
"Father!" Vergil called.
Sparda came into the room and knelt down on the floor infront of the couch.
"He won't speak." Vergil replied to his father.
Sparda felt his forehead for a tempture but there wasn't surprisingly Dante
was still gripping his chest Sparda noticed.
"It's your chest?" Sparda asked Dante.
Dante nodded his head and Sparda knew it had to be his heart that was causing
him to act that way he was acting. Dante tried to speak but nothing came
out like he was being choked a tight grip on his voice box. Only coughs came out.
"Dad what is it?" Vergil asked.
"It's his devil heart somethings wrong with it." Sparda responded.
"He has a problem with his demon heart?" Vergil asked.
"No, he has many types and it comes by stones it must be he caught
another." Sparda answered.
"What?" Vergil asked.
"It can't be explaned, he has powers that I can see already." Sparda answered.
"And?" Vergil asked again.
"He has the heart stones inside of him, the stones work differently then the
others which give him different powers...he might of picked one up on that
path and its killing him, we must find out where this one goes." Sparda replied.
"Great more stuff to worry about." Vergil responded.
Sparda tried to figure out what type of stone could do this to him and where
it must go while Vergil went ahead and headed back to the path to figure out
where it was hidden. Dante looked over at his father and tried to get up
with taking a big breathe of air he lifted up holding his chest still he tries to
speak once more.
"I...hav..e..t..to...get...to.." Dante said.
Sparda turned quickly around seeing Dante sitting up holding his chest.
Sparda helped him up back to his feet.
"You have to go where son?" Sparda asked.
"The...Harbor..in...Dumary...Island." Dante responded taking deep breathes as
he tightly gripped his chest.
Sparda quickly responded and lifted Dante out of the house sending a signal to his
other son Vergil got back there in a flash and they left to Dumary Island Sparda
didn't really understand why he had to go there again but it would of been the
place for the stone. When they got there Dante stood up by himself and walked through
the street that he once walked through with no doubt he knew that there was
going to be trouble which he hoped not because he already dealt the fact of
fighting to free this place for the villagers which the place looked so dead Dante
tilted his head in a sorrowful reaction then smiled when he knew that someone
was already there Sparda and Vergil walked behind him in a distance to keep eye on him.
Down the weiry road he knew he was deffinitly going to bump into an old friend.
But for that chance he still knew he had to get to that harbor before his time
came up with a quick breathe he walked on down the path.
"Hey bro, didn't you go here before?" Vergil asked.
Dante looked back and smiled.
"You...can say." Dante responded.
Walking down the path Dante heard a noise on top of the buildings he looked up
and he knew then the noises where what he dealt with in the past.
Sparda jumped up to the top of a building and there were about twenty of the
Agonofinis's and many others Puias also that attacked from the sky Sparda knew
this was to many other types of demons appeared infront of the street ahead of
Dante and Vergil. Dante knew he didn't have any time to fight them until the fact
that he had to when a huge flame wall that blocked them from moving on.
Dante knew there was no chose.
So he ran having walls on both sides Dante used them for getting air. Vergil also
used to walls Dante flipped escape from the Puias that were in the air which he
knew he had to take them down. Doing the kick jump worked also while Sparda
knocked the ones on the roofs Vergil and Dante had to deal with the ones on the
street below the roof tops.
Dante used most of his special moves when attacking them high time complete
stunned Vergil but he had his own attacks that had powerful combos. Dante knew
he was running out of time so he used his devil trigger and quickly destroyed
the demons on the street knowing the fact of using it sppeds up the stone he
felt more weaker so when the wall dropped he ran for the opening Vergil
followed behind him with Sparda following from above.
Even though the fact of getting to the point he still knew about the enemies that
will be waiting for him there. The harbor wasn't that far from where they were.
Dante kept his self from getting weak by using his healing heart which had helped
him ever sence. Dante stopped seeing the harbor right there he knew that someone
was going to try stopping him a big flame appeared in the path ahead not knowing what
he'll be facing he had no time he felt the healing heart stopped working. Vergil
and their father stood right next to them as they stood there and watched as the
sky turned red with lightening the buildings started to shake they knew this was
trouble the building started to morph rocks flew everywhere.
"...Great..." Dante said taking in deep breathes.
"Don't worry bro, run past him...me and dad will take care of him." Vergil said.
"Right...run, past...are you insane?" Dante replied.
"Don't worry he won't be there that long." Sparda said.
Nefasturris, Nefasvermis ( " The city of evil is not constructed by the hands of
man. The very materials are the bones and sinews of an ancient demon,
conjured and summoned to be the brickwork of the sorcerer's schemes. The
hunters have left the city derelict, and so the ancient awakens. It's extremities
reach the sky. Its intestines reflect the color of darkness. Its name means a
tower of misery. The hunters have discovered the deep root of
evil." -Guidepost for the Hunters Chapter 6 Clause 2 )
Dante nodded his head looking up at the demon as it came out. Sparda
knew this was deffinitly going to take some time but they had to some how get
Dante though to the harbor. So Vergil ran up and started to attack the demon
Sparda stayed besides Dante and waited.
"Son go when theres an opening to run." Sparda ordered Dante.
"Right..." Dante responded.
Sparda joined the attack with Vergil. Dante saw an opening to get past the area
so he ran for it as Vergil and Sparda kept the demon focused on them. Dante
made it through he looked back knowing that demon can do alot damage but he
didn't care he was dealing the damage already from the stone he made it to
the harbor. Dante heard a noise so he quickly turned to see who it was there
stood Lucia leaning against the post.
"So we meet again, Dante." Lucia said.
Dante tilted his head then looked back to the harbor where the stone had to be.
He wondered why was she here. He looked back at her as she stood there
spinning one of her daggers in her hand.
Dante knew there was no more time left to get it done so he ran to the place
the stone was released into a holder that was on one of the docks that was
there he walked back he felt much better not feeling tight and strangled
to talk the healing stone started to kick in again and healed him back to
normal. As he walked back he saw Lucia still leaning there on the post.
Still wondering he walked over to her.
"Much better?" Lucia asked. With a slight smile on her face.
"Very funny, that stone had me for a sec." Dante replied.
Lucia laughed alittle then smiled looking at him as he stood there nodding his head.
"Don't worry it happened to me before...and yeah it sucks." Lucia responded.
Dante knew that Vergil and his father was still facing that demon but the point of
him not heading back to them was that he wanted to know the reason of meeting
her again and why it lead back to Dumary Island. He knew Lucia had known
something was going down and see was there for that reason. Bringing him
there was another mystery and it meant more trouble because it meant that
some one was back and someone is going to have to take care of it and he
hoped for it not being Aruis or some other boss to take care of. He hated
the fact of it happening again on Dumary Island. Bringing more bad memories
just made it worse.
"Let me guess you knew something and you sent me that stone." Dante replied.
"You guessed right this time Dante...He's back." Lucia said.
In the same reaction Dante knew this was going to be bad news and another mess to
clean up. He hoped that his facts were not correct.
To Be Continued....
Catch A Quick Breathe
The cops and everyone else knew that these men aren't that human like some people
that where watching thought that they are some type of super heros and they can save
everyone from disastor. The president wanted alot of information about them if they
where going to help being friends or foes. No one really wanted them to become
bad because if they can survive an attack by fire and being slamed down by a huge
thing they knew it would take alot of stuff to try to get rid of them as it would be
easier to become friends so they wouldn't have to deal with it.
No information was sent except the one name that was heard with pictures taken they
only knew the man with the red jacket was known as Dante and he was about five,
nine foot while the other two looked to be two or less feet shorter then him. They
also know that the son wearing the blue is about somewhat known as the much mature
older brother. Some specialist think that they might be twins they also took blood samples
from the truck to see information on the blood type even though the blood was already
dead they still had a chance to get more information for the president.
While the officers and agents stood by the scene they notice that they started to
walk on. They knew that they where going to keep walking but the cops wanted
them to stay there for more information on them so another milatary officer spoke
out to catch them before they left. Sparda turned around while the others just
stopped moving.
"Sir!...Can you please tell me what was that, that came out of the ground?" The officer
said as he walked up to Sparda.
Vergil and Dante looked at eachother then looked at the man as he walked up to
their father. Sparda folded his arms looking at the man.
"You don't need to know." Sparda said.
The officers known the two sons standing there the one named Dante started to have
an reaction through his arm, Dante started to pull violently at his left arm Vergil and
Sparda didn't even know it was happening. One of the paramedics came out Vergil
knew it was the same one from before. Vergil got very confussed
until he looked over and saw Dante pulling at his arm.
"Dante what is it?" Vergil asked in worry.
Sparda turned as he saw a man wearing white come up to them. Vergil told his dad that
he was a paramedic so Sparda aloud him to come closer. Dante felt like his arm was
being crushed the pain was so much that he took out one of his guns and pointed it at
his left arm. The paramedic grabbed the gun Dante looked up at the man.
"That wont make it feel better, it'll just make it worse trust me." The paramedic said.
Dante placed the gun back and just stood there as the pain gotten worst. The paramedic
checked the arm for any type of fracker or broken bones, the arm was turning red.
Vergil watched as the paramedic checked Dantes arm. Dante didn't like the feeling
he was feeling from his arm so he looked very not patient of waiting.
"Oh, I see." The paramedic said.
"See what?" Vergil said.
"WHAT?!" Dante said in pain.
The paramedic grabbed the upper shoulder while he was still holding the wrist
Dante was shocked of not knowing what he meant by that but the way he grabbed his
shoulder he thought he was going to litterly pull it off. Sparda was worried
so was Vergil they didn't know what he was going to do.
"You pulled your arm out, so be still." The paramedic said.
"Ohhh, ok." Dante said in relief.
"Be still I have to put it back this might hurt alittle." Tha paramedic said.
The paramedic popped the arm back in Dante quinched when it snapped back in
to place. The pain soon faded from his arm and the color soon came back to normal.
The paramedic checked to see if it was ok to be moved and he gave the ok.
"Thanks again kid...whats your name?" Dante asked.
"I'm Rick...sorry not telling you that before." Rick said.
"No you don't...I'm Dante and I thank you for caring for people." Dante said.
"That's my job." Rick replied.
"Well mine is demon hunting." Dante said.
The agents listened into their talk the officers didn't understand why he would talk
to that guy but it was probaly because they only talk to people they can trust and it
looked like they trusted that man. The officers tried to get him
to asked them questions but they couldn't reach him.
"Rick, that's my bro...Vergil he takes care of me too so you don't really need to be
here for me...plusly when bad guys show up I don't want to be the one trying to save
you." Dante said.
Rick smiled and looked over at the truck to where his co-workers where. Then
looked back at Dante.
"Thats right you have to do your job, as much as I got to do my job." Dante said.
"So are you going to help people also?...I'm just wondering." Rick asked.
"I do...I just keep it secret...you know." Dante said.
Dante patted Ricks shoulder and started to walk on. As Vergil walked by he stopped
and looked at him.
"Thanks Rick for seeing it before I did...Your a really good kid." Vergil said.
"Your welcome, it's my job." Rick said with a smile waving him goodbye.
Sparda tapped him on the shoulder Rick turned around and saw a man standing there
looking at him.
"Thanks for helping my son...I promise that we'll be here for you, as you where here
for them." Sparda said in gradatude to Rick.
"Your very welcome sir." Rick said.
Sparda looked back at him with a smile then went on walking on behind following
his sons. Rick felt very special that he did do something right, he started to think that
they where saviors of the world and they can make a difference.
He first thought bad but now it's all good he smile as he watched them leave as
he knew that some day he will see them again in the future. He walked back to
the truck that was completely destroyed and his co-workers.
"So Rick how was it talking to non-humans?" His co-worker Tom asked.
"You can think that Tom but I'll tell you this I just made the best save of a life time."
Rick said.
Tom and the others laughed.
"Yeah you guys can laugh now but I'll be the one laughing next time." Rick said.
They all looked at eachother then quickly looked at Rick with worried looks on
their faces.
"Rick what they tell you?" Tom asked.
"What do you mean next time...theres going to be a next time?" His other co-worker
Jackie said.
Rick just laughed and hopped back into the truck as the others got in to the truck also
and drived away. While the agents wrote down all the information that was told
and now they only have a few more mysterys from what they don't know.
The agents sent more information that they where family and that the one named
Dante was a demon hunter they kinda thought if he was one that it meant his brother
was one also. They also sent information that the other son was named Vergil and he
protected his brother which they took as a younger brother. They don't really have
any information on their father yet but the mystery comes to be more different
then before. The president is still asking for more information on them.
While they make it halfway down the street a truck pulled infront of them and a few
men came out with equipment that they never seen before but Dante isn't that stupid
and knew that they where going to try getting them to go inside that truck. Dante
walked forward and waved for Vergil and his dad to stay put. So they stopped
and watched Dante as he walked up to the men as they stood there.
"Your asking for it." Dante said to the men.
One of the men walked up to Dante as the others stayed still.
"We just want you to answer a few simple questions." The man said.
Dante tilted his head then swayed his arm to his handle of the sword on his back.
With a slight smile the man jumped back in fear.
"I'm tired of answering your stupid questions...Out of my way or answer to the
sword." Dante threatened the men that where standing there.
They all started to walk back to the truck and they moved away. Dante looked
back at his brother then smiled. Vergil nodded his head as they went on to the town.
"Your so out of it." Vergil complimented to Dante.
"Thanks for thinking that way bro." Dante replied.
As they got close to the town the agents got more desprite to stopping them from
getting there. Dante watched ahead as the people placed road blocks on the road.
Dante laughed in reason of why they where doing that it wasn't like they where
cars coming through town. Vergil didn't understand why he laughed until he saw ahead
of the road.
"They just got more stupid or do they think that's going to stop us?" Dante said to Vergil.
"Bro they lost it...hehe." Vergil replied.
"Just you two don't do anything worsier than that." Sparda said to both of them.
Both Vergil and Dante laughed as they listened to him. They came up to the road
block there where alot of people there blocking the road. Dante thought it was funny
but it didn't cause him to stop moving. With a slight kick the road
block was gone but they still had to get the people out of the way so Vergil took
off his sword and just dropped it down by his side giving a look at the people to kill
Dante was also holding his sword the people where frightened about them and the
faces they saw from them just made the people run for the hills.
"See dad they just run." Dante said looking back at his father.
Vergil and Dante slapped hands and started to move on while Sparda followed them
from behind he spotted a trap. Sparda walked past his sons telling them to stay so
they stopped walking and watched him. Sparda knew about this trap the tree was
way off it looked like its been taken off its roots. Sparda walked slowly up to the
point where the tree was he swiftly kicked the side of the base of the tree Dante
and Vergil saw the tree not fall but it looked like the tree was back up right and
didn't look like it was going to fall which it did look like it would. Dante and Vergil
didn't understand what he was doing but it seemed like something wasn't right to
Dante he smelt the air and it was filled with thick blood.
"Demons." Dante said.
"What?" Vergil replied to Dante.
"I can smell them...there are many of them." Dante answered.
Vergil looked back at his father and then looked around for anything that shouldn't
be there. Dante just stood there not worried at all and watched his dad as he stood
over there near that tree. Soon Dante felt a cold breeze pass him through the air it
was heading to the town. Dante turned to Vergil and pulled on his jacket to tell him
to follow. Passing their father Vergil tells him to follow also.
"Dad!...Dante senses something headed to the town." Vergil said.
As they follow Dante they stopped immediatly when Dante stopped. Dante turned
and looked back at them as they stayed there. Vergil didn't want the same thing
happen again so he took his sword and held it poistioned to
attack. Sparda was already ready for anything to come.
"Wait...I think it stopped." Dante said.
"Where did it stop?" Vergil asked Dante.
Dante looked around the place to where they were standing then looked back at
them with a slight move on the ground would cause a mistake so he tried not to
move. Vergil and Sparda watched Dante as he moved really slow so they didn't
move. Dante looked at the ground.
"He's below." Dante whispered.
"What?" Sparda said.
Dante pointed down at the ground. Sparda didn't really like the fact of them attacking
from below, he just thought it was a waste of time so he stabbed his sword straight
into the ground causing an big blast of electricity flowing through the ground the
demon that was in the ground shot out and landed on a branch looking down at them
Sparda looked up at him so did Dante and Vergil.
"Good shot dad." Dante said.
"Your suppost to be dead!" The demon said pointing at Sparda as they stood there
watching him.
"We'll look who just got out of a closet..." Dante taunted the demon in the tree.
The demon grinned and pointed behind them Sparda turned around and there
where about a hundred more demons coming out of the ground.
"You better hope they can stop me from slaying you." Dante said as he pointed his
gun up at him.
"Your dead!" The demon yelled.
The demon jumped down from the tree as Dante fired at him it caused him to fly
back into the base of the tree. All the other demons srpung into action and Vergil
was getting attack by five demons at once while Sparda was getting attacked by ten
Dante was just fighting that one. The FBI agents watched from a distance taken
notes on what they do that would be impossible for humans to do which were alot
of them the fire and electricity and the high air jumps which they never seen before
and their fist lit up with fire they didn't understand the reason of them stopping, they
thought that they stopped in a position then waited for a time to punch but when they
did the demons flew far enough that was impossible for a human to do. They sent the
information to the government to give to the president he was stunned thinking that if
they could do that what will it be to attacked by them. The president couldn't refuse
the fact so he wanted to meet them up in person to see if they will sign a treaty on
being alias. The problem of it was that they couldn't tell them now because it seemed
like they didn't wanted to bothered at that time. Since they where fighting anyway so
he told them to wait then ask.
"Dante watch your back!" Vergil said.
Dante looked quickly behind him and saw more demons creeping up behind him,
So he switched from the guns and jumped high enough and came quickly back down
to the ground with a big slash from his sword the agents were more impressed by
Dante and how he jumps high doing impossible tricks like a pro with guns and amazingly
he jumps so high then somewho comes back down with a sword. It blew them away all
the three demons that where sneaking up behind him where now gone. The agents
wanted to know more about him about his moves where different from
the others. Honestly they couldn't keep there eyes on all of them so they had
three writers watch one of each and write on them. So they wouldn't be
lost in differences about each other.
Dante stood there with the sword in his right arm up on his shoulder while the
other hand held a black gun. Amazing they thought of how can he use them at the
same time this was the same thing that made Vergil and his dad confussed.
They didn't even know how he can do it but Dante knew that every second can
be made by mistakes which he didn't want to happen so he took all of his energy
and used it to give him the right ways of using his techniques.
Dante watched as the demon stood there looking at him in an odd way until he
moved again to attack. Dante did a back flip to retreat the attack the demon pulled
but he came back with a devastating attack that caused all the other demons
to look. Sparda and Vergil stood there and watched as the demons slowly backed
away from them and turn to Dante as he stood there.
The demon couldn't move fast enough to break from the attack as Dante quickly
slamed his fist into his gut then the demon moved so fast to the ground he felt the
ground leave him as Dante quickly came around and upper cutted him to the sky the
power of the Ifrit was to strong that the demon couldn't catch any movement from
Dante. When he came back to the ground Dante was standing there with his gun in
his hand pointing directly at the spot where he landed his gun soon lit up with electricity
the demon just stood there and watched as the electricity flowed through his arm
down to the gun. Dante smiled at him the demon knew that he was going to pull the
trigger so he tried to make a break for it but before he can Dante pulled the trigger
and the blast hit him from the back causing him to explode.
"Sweet dreams." Dante said as he pulled the trigger.
The other demons where so mad at Dante as he just stood there they started to move
towards him with grinns on their faces. Dante looked up at them as they came closer.
Dante lifted his hand and taunted them to come closer. Two demons jumped for him
but he quickly dodged to the left and did a kick thirteen causing the demon hit the
ground hard. The other demon was just standing there but Dante didn't allow
him to move as he took out his twin guns and jumped over him in an upside down
fall he spun above the demon and opened fire the agents were amazed. They
didn't now how he was doing that and how was he staying up there that long. Then he
came quickly down with a slash with his sword cutting the demon in half.
He held the sword close to his body in a upright position then he through it the sword
flew like a boomarang toward the demon that was about ten feet infront of him even
without the sword he took out his guns and opened fired again the sword flew back to
him and was back on his holster that was on his back which also stunned
the agents they didn't see him put it back on the holster its just like it landed back
there by itself. Dante switched back to the sword then with a quick movement the
agents felt the ground shake as he drived the sword fast straight through
one of the demons. Then by the drop of the demon he was the only one standing.
Placing the sword back he looks at his dad and Vergil and smiles. Vergil was so
stunned of how fast he was moving that he never knew that, that
demon was the last one.
"Did you see that I never seen that in my whole life that was amazing!" One of the
agents said.
"Yeah, I never thought it was over that quick...We have to send that information
in pronto." The other agent replied.
While over where they are...
"Brother I admit you don't really need any help with that skill." Vergil
complimented to Dante.
"Thanks, but I still think we should really keep moving before he sends more of
his men out." Dante replied to Vergil.
"Yeah, we really gotta keep moving cus...I feel like something or someone is
watching us." Vergil replied.
They made it to the town and walked out on the streets knowing that some time
then there was going to be an attack on them but they didn't know when. Only
Dante knew it when it comes but there was nothing Vergil looked around
so did Dante. Sparda had a bad feeling about the town that he felt before they
even got there. He walked infront of them and waved them to stay put so they did.
Sparda felt a really bad feeling about the place and he knew that what ever this
boss has it was much more powerful than the other demons they fought Sparda
could only tell by the power level it has and to him the level was as high as his
last battle with Mundus and it meant that this must be him or someone far
greater then him. Dante and Vergil stood there wondering what their father
was up to but it was clueless to them but Dante knew it was going to be trouble.
"Father I sense something coming from the ground under that building over there."
Dante said.
Sparda looked at Dante then turned to the building both Dante and Vergil stood
and waited to be singled to move. Sparda didn't understand of why it would be
coming from the building but it meant trouble very bad, he turned to sons
and shook his head Dante knew his dad didn't want them to help but, Vergil
didn't care cause if it was that powerful he still wanted to help knowing that it
could be faital to do it alone. Vergil understood how powerful his dad was but, he still
didn't care knowing the fact of him dieing would mean much more to him so he
stood in position to attack Dante watched at Vergil knowing he was going to ignore
what their father just told them so Dante took the side of his brother in the stance
they stood the agents watched in distance they didn't know what they were
doing until they saw the building crash down to its foundation.
"My Sons...DON'T HELP!" Sparda ordered his sons.
Dante and Vergil still kept their ground but also listened to him staying in attack
mode they knew not to intrude in the fight but if it came down to the point of that
he needs help they were ready. Sparda stood there waiting for the demon to come
forward out of the dust a shadow came towards Sparda as he came closer he
became more visible the black cape and red eyes shown through the dust
Spardas eyes widened as he came closer.
...It couldn't be...could it?... Sparda said in his head.
Amazingly Sparda reconized the guy quickly he turned to his sons and signed them
to get far but, Dante and Vergil didn't want to leave the place so they jumped into
the air and hid in the trees. The agents lost sight of them but they
had a good eye on Sparda and the demonish guy coming from the building.
Everything that happened had been written down by the agents and sent to the
president piece by piece. What they heard next was information to close half of the case
the demon came out and stood about ten feet away from Sparda.
"So we meet again...Legendary Dark Knight...Sparda." The demon said.
Sparda tilted his head then shown a slightly smile towards the man.
"This will be the last time...Creave." Sparda remarked.
"Will see about that." Creave replied.
"Creave??" Dante questioned himself.
Dante looked at Vergil, Vergil shrugged his shoulders in response of not knowing
who he was. Confusing as it sounded but it was bad Dante knows this guy means
trouble and it wouldn't end so pretty. Vergil shook his head at
the situation that his dad was in.
"Hey Vergil?...Do you think dad can possiblely stop this guy?" Dante asked.
"I don't know...but, lets hope he can." Vergil replied smiling back at Dante.
Dante felt a cold sensation go down his back, he shook and grabbed his shoulders
and rubbed them Vergil looked at him with a slight of a worry look on his face
he moved closer to him.
"What's the matter?" Vergil asked.
"I just got a cold chill go down my back." Dante replied.
Vergil now looked at him with a slight of a smile, then patted his back.
"What?" Dante asked.
"Nothing." Vergil replied.
Dante knew that Vergil was keeping something secret from him but he didn't know
what but it scared him to think about it. Dante felt another chill and started to look
around the place more.
"What is it bro?" Vergil said.
"Nothing." Dante replied.
Dante didn't want to tell his brother about feeling another cold chill cause then he
thought Vergil was going to say something about it again and he would of got another
chill. So he kept looking around the area for the reasoning of the chill Dante knew
that there was something near by and it didn't seem good at all. Vergil looked at
Dante and nodded his head and looked back down to where his father was. Dante
quickly turned around to see behind him knowing he might of sensed
something coming up behind them as they hid in the tree on a high branch Vergil
looked back at Dante not knowing he was turned the other way Dante quickly turned
to look the other way and before he knew it...smack...Dante smacked his lips onto Vergils
a quick response from Vergil he grabbed the tree branch as he felt his foot slip
while grabbing the branch Dante tired to remove his lips by moving backwards
but he soon felt his feet slip so he grabbed onto his brothers jacket Vergil felt his body
being pulled towards his brother Vergil felt his body go weak as he felt Dantes leg push
up onto his crouch area he lost grip onto the tree. Vergil fell two branches below
while Dante got caught on the first branch. Dante was looking down at Vergil as
he was looking up.
"What the fuck was that?!" Dante asked.
"I don't want to know." Vergil responded.
Vergil got back up on his feet and looked up as Dante sat on the branch above him.
Vergil climbed up and sat next to him as he sat there strange as it sounds Dante was
not pissed off he was very confussed first he was looking for the reason of
where the chill was coming from then he some how got in that odd position.
Dante looked at Vergil in confussion while Vergil was still looking down at their
father as he stood there. It was silence between them it caused
a very bad drift of fear flowing through the air Vergil and Dante sensed it.
"I'm sorry." Dante replied.
"For what?" Vergil asked. Looking at him as he sat next to him.
"For cursing at you for no reason." Dante answered.
"You don't have to." Vergil responded.
Dante felt so stupid of what just happened and it happened because he was freaking
out about something very stupid. Vergil patted him on the back.
"Accendents happen." Vergil said as he was still watching dad and the demon guy
standing there.
Dante looked at Vergil then looked down at the demon guy rubbing the back of his
neck in confussion of what just happened he thought that Vergil would of been
mad at him not nice acting to him it was weird for Dante but just then Dante felt a
strong energy flow by he knew it was trouble he jumped to the nearest tree near
their dad he watched patiently as they stood there looking at each other Dante
wondered its been five minutes or ten minutes why haven't they started fighting
yet it was like they where waiting for a sign or signal from something or someone
which Dante thought that strange ora that flew by was the sign.
Just then Sparda reached for his sword and tilted to the side in a position that really
was unkown to do that confussed the demon it made it difficult for him he didn't
know where and when he was going to attack that was the one thing the demon
knew about Sparda he always tricked them no matter how strong you are
he still overpowers the opponent by more experience in fighting. Dante and Vergil
watched closely as the demon guy started to make his move he lifted off the ground
with a big surge of wind the ground started to crack beneath him Sparda smiled then
charged so fast before the demon set a curse on him that was one thing Sparda didn't
like evil spells that where casted to others so he jumped so high that he came down
with a strong force that pushed the demon back down to the ground he even went
about five feet into the ground by the attack. Spardas fists lit up with fire Dante knew
he was going to hit him with the fire but also with the electricity even though his hands
lit on fire his arms were electricity the power was greater then Dantes and Vergils the
demon came out and hit Sparda with a surge blast that only made him move a couple
feet back but he came back at the guy with an uppercut and swung around with a
high kick that did alot of damage to the guy he fell down and got up on to his
knees he started to laugh Sparda tilted his head in confussion Dante knew why
he was laughing it was the only way they can overpower the person they're
fighting it confusses them and then they attack from behind.
"DAD DON"T FALL FOR THAT LAUGH!" Dante yelled out.
Sparda knew right away it was a trap of his and swung around with the sword the
demon jumped back but not quick enough that it made a big slice arcoss his torso
that was only two inches deep he held the wound and looked
back up at the trees then turned back to Sparda.
"I...see,...you have...(cough)..help." The demon said softly and slow.
Looking in anger at Sparda he lifted up and soon the slice was gone completely.
Dante was surprised he knew what he was doing and what type of tricks that demon
can pull Dante knew how to kill them and he was more worried about dad knowing
about the problem he's going to have to deal with. Dante jumped out of the tree and
slowly walked up behind the demon Sparda looked at Dante as he just walked up to
him and the demon didn't even notice about him being there. Sparda didn't want to
say anything or make any faces to give up that Dante was behind him but before
Dante got close enough to kill him he took his guns and lifted them up pointing
at the back of his head.
"You know I really gotta say something about you,..." Dante said.
The demon guy turned around and stood there in shock of why he didn't know he
was there.
"I really don't like you guys and you can visit your friends when I'm finished with you."
Dante said.
Sparda looked at Dante as he kept a straight face at the demon which that was the
reason of them being so scared of him and also angry. Dante made a quick glance
at his dad, Sparda knew that his son was telling him to do something but he didn't
really understand but then he knew Dante was making the demon look at him so that
he can attack him more easily. Spardas arm lit up with fire the agents thought that
what they were seeing was some type of family help what they never usually see
real familes do they usually tell others to stay out of fights but it seemed to them that
Dante did that for one reason he knew how to attack that type of demon, surprise
and he won't see it coming. Dante smiled at the demon the demon growled and
crouched down to attack Dante but before he got to attack forgetten about
Sparda behind him. The demon didn't even sense it coming from behind he was so
into the fact of attacking Dante but Sparda stricked hard through the chest of the
demon he punched right through the demon the agents jumped back by they're
reaction to the type of attack they never thought of seeing that happen in real life
but it did happen and they had film to prove it can be done but you have to
be a strong hitter.
The demon dropped dead where it stood. Dante smiled at his father then looked
over to where Vergil was the agents never saw where he came from but he was
standing right there infront of them. Sparda nodded his head.
"Don't worry dad I know about those demons, I faced alot of them before and I
survived." Dante said.
"It's not only that you know how...You always have to be ready...Failing to that
you'll die." Sparda replied.
"Dad, don't worry about him...I'm watching over him." Vergil respond.
"No I worry about both of you, and fouling around can cause mistakes...I don't
want any mistakes understand?" Sparda replies with a questioning remark.
They both answered.
"Yes father I understand." Vergil and Dante replied.
They walked over to where their father was standing and standed right next to
him and waited for him to say something as he looked down at the ground.
Sparda looked back up at his two sons.
"Lets go." Sparda said.
They started to walk down the path as they came down the path to the where
two dark buildings stood. Dante stopped walking and felt pain in his upper chest
so he rubbed where the pain was looking back up at the path he sees that he was
far behind them.
"Damn, I got..to get..moving or...else." Dante said to himself with deep breathes.
The path infront of Dante soon became weiry and tall the trees looked like they
stretched to their limit and the path became more smaller and the colors started
to fade into red. Dante couldn't repel the pain that he was feeling he dropped
down to his knees and started to cough. When he coughed he felt as if he was
coughing up his own heart he gripped his chest every time. Looking back up he
knew they where long past gone.
"Uhhh...I...gotta get...moving." Dante said to himself with bigger breathes this time.
While where Vergil was he stopped walking telling his dad also he looks around
and seeing that Dante wasn't there.
"I knew something was missing." Vergil said.
"Where did he go?" Sparda asked.
"I'll go back, stay here just in case." Vergil replied.
Sparda stayed there and waited patiently. As Vergil headed quickly back down the
path he looked everywhere to where he could of gone to. Down the path straight
ahead from him Dante was trying to keep his body up but he fell down
onto the ground laying face down he still had grip on his chest still awake
he looked around as the vision became more intense Dante tried to see if it
was an illiusion but it wasn't soon he heard a voice from down the path he looked
up and saw Vergil.
"DANTE!" Vergil yelled.
Dante tried to speak but he couldn't only his eyes where moving which Vergil
knew he can hear him. The pain was so peircing that it kept Dante silent Vergil
carried him down the path to where Sparda was Vergil looked at Dantes
face and tried to talk to him but Dante couldn't talk back but he still had the
grip on his chest to where the pain came from. Dantes eyes rolled shut.
Vergil knew this was bad and he needed some type of help he made it to father.
Sparda was shocked to see what he saw Vergil was carrying Dante he didn't knew
what happened.
"What happened?" Sparda asked Vergil.
"I don't know, I just got there and he was one the ground and he didn't speak
at all only his eyes where open." Vergil responded.
"Give him here." Sparda said.
Sparda took Dante into his arms Vergil was worried.
"Is he ok?" Vergil said.
"I have no clue...but whatever happened..." Sparda answered.
Sparda knew going on with this would deffinitly be a problem to take care of.
So he turned to his son Vergil.
"We must go back...until this is solved." Sparda insisted.
Vergil agreed of heading back to the house. The agents didn't understand of
what they where saying because they talked so low that it was heard as
mumbles. Then they disapeared in a red cloud. The agents wanted to know
where they were going so they got to work on the mumbles. They also
wanted to know what happened to Dante.
While back at the house Sparda laid down Dante on the couch Vergil sat next to
him. Dante started to open his eyes and turned to Vergil. Vergil noticed
he was awake again.
"Father!" Vergil called.
Sparda came into the room and knelt down on the floor infront of the couch.
"He won't speak." Vergil replied to his father.
Sparda felt his forehead for a tempture but there wasn't surprisingly Dante
was still gripping his chest Sparda noticed.
"It's your chest?" Sparda asked Dante.
Dante nodded his head and Sparda knew it had to be his heart that was causing
him to act that way he was acting. Dante tried to speak but nothing came
out like he was being choked a tight grip on his voice box. Only coughs came out.
"Dad what is it?" Vergil asked.
"It's his devil heart somethings wrong with it." Sparda responded.
"He has a problem with his demon heart?" Vergil asked.
"No, he has many types and it comes by stones it must be he caught
another." Sparda answered.
"What?" Vergil asked.
"It can't be explaned, he has powers that I can see already." Sparda answered.
"And?" Vergil asked again.
"He has the heart stones inside of him, the stones work differently then the
others which give him different powers...he might of picked one up on that
path and its killing him, we must find out where this one goes." Sparda replied.
"Great more stuff to worry about." Vergil responded.
Sparda tried to figure out what type of stone could do this to him and where
it must go while Vergil went ahead and headed back to the path to figure out
where it was hidden. Dante looked over at his father and tried to get up
with taking a big breathe of air he lifted up holding his chest still he tries to
speak once more.
"I...hav..e..t..to...get...to.." Dante said.
Sparda turned quickly around seeing Dante sitting up holding his chest.
Sparda helped him up back to his feet.
"You have to go where son?" Sparda asked.
"The...Harbor..in...Dumary...Island." Dante responded taking deep breathes as
he tightly gripped his chest.
Sparda quickly responded and lifted Dante out of the house sending a signal to his
other son Vergil got back there in a flash and they left to Dumary Island Sparda
didn't really understand why he had to go there again but it would of been the
place for the stone. When they got there Dante stood up by himself and walked through
the street that he once walked through with no doubt he knew that there was
going to be trouble which he hoped not because he already dealt the fact of
fighting to free this place for the villagers which the place looked so dead Dante
tilted his head in a sorrowful reaction then smiled when he knew that someone
was already there Sparda and Vergil walked behind him in a distance to keep eye on him.
Down the weiry road he knew he was deffinitly going to bump into an old friend.
But for that chance he still knew he had to get to that harbor before his time
came up with a quick breathe he walked on down the path.
"Hey bro, didn't you go here before?" Vergil asked.
Dante looked back and smiled.
"You...can say." Dante responded.
Walking down the path Dante heard a noise on top of the buildings he looked up
and he knew then the noises where what he dealt with in the past.
Sparda jumped up to the top of a building and there were about twenty of the
Agonofinis's and many others Puias also that attacked from the sky Sparda knew
this was to many other types of demons appeared infront of the street ahead of
Dante and Vergil. Dante knew he didn't have any time to fight them until the fact
that he had to when a huge flame wall that blocked them from moving on.
Dante knew there was no chose.
So he ran having walls on both sides Dante used them for getting air. Vergil also
used to walls Dante flipped escape from the Puias that were in the air which he
knew he had to take them down. Doing the kick jump worked also while Sparda
knocked the ones on the roofs Vergil and Dante had to deal with the ones on the
street below the roof tops.
Dante used most of his special moves when attacking them high time complete
stunned Vergil but he had his own attacks that had powerful combos. Dante knew
he was running out of time so he used his devil trigger and quickly destroyed
the demons on the street knowing the fact of using it sppeds up the stone he
felt more weaker so when the wall dropped he ran for the opening Vergil
followed behind him with Sparda following from above.
Even though the fact of getting to the point he still knew about the enemies that
will be waiting for him there. The harbor wasn't that far from where they were.
Dante kept his self from getting weak by using his healing heart which had helped
him ever sence. Dante stopped seeing the harbor right there he knew that someone
was going to try stopping him a big flame appeared in the path ahead not knowing what
he'll be facing he had no time he felt the healing heart stopped working. Vergil
and their father stood right next to them as they stood there and watched as the
sky turned red with lightening the buildings started to shake they knew this was
trouble the building started to morph rocks flew everywhere.
"...Great..." Dante said taking in deep breathes.
"Don't worry bro, run past him...me and dad will take care of him." Vergil said.
"Right...run, past...are you insane?" Dante replied.
"Don't worry he won't be there that long." Sparda said.
Nefasturris, Nefasvermis ( " The city of evil is not constructed by the hands of
man. The very materials are the bones and sinews of an ancient demon,
conjured and summoned to be the brickwork of the sorcerer's schemes. The
hunters have left the city derelict, and so the ancient awakens. It's extremities
reach the sky. Its intestines reflect the color of darkness. Its name means a
tower of misery. The hunters have discovered the deep root of
evil." -Guidepost for the Hunters Chapter 6 Clause 2 )
Dante nodded his head looking up at the demon as it came out. Sparda
knew this was deffinitly going to take some time but they had to some how get
Dante though to the harbor. So Vergil ran up and started to attack the demon
Sparda stayed besides Dante and waited.
"Son go when theres an opening to run." Sparda ordered Dante.
"Right..." Dante responded.
Sparda joined the attack with Vergil. Dante saw an opening to get past the area
so he ran for it as Vergil and Sparda kept the demon focused on them. Dante
made it through he looked back knowing that demon can do alot damage but he
didn't care he was dealing the damage already from the stone he made it to
the harbor. Dante heard a noise so he quickly turned to see who it was there
stood Lucia leaning against the post.
"So we meet again, Dante." Lucia said.
Dante tilted his head then looked back to the harbor where the stone had to be.
He wondered why was she here. He looked back at her as she stood there
spinning one of her daggers in her hand.
Dante knew there was no more time left to get it done so he ran to the place
the stone was released into a holder that was on one of the docks that was
there he walked back he felt much better not feeling tight and strangled
to talk the healing stone started to kick in again and healed him back to
normal. As he walked back he saw Lucia still leaning there on the post.
Still wondering he walked over to her.
"Much better?" Lucia asked. With a slight smile on her face.
"Very funny, that stone had me for a sec." Dante replied.
Lucia laughed alittle then smiled looking at him as he stood there nodding his head.
"Don't worry it happened to me before...and yeah it sucks." Lucia responded.
Dante knew that Vergil and his father was still facing that demon but the point of
him not heading back to them was that he wanted to know the reason of meeting
her again and why it lead back to Dumary Island. He knew Lucia had known
something was going down and see was there for that reason. Bringing him
there was another mystery and it meant more trouble because it meant that
some one was back and someone is going to have to take care of it and he
hoped for it not being Aruis or some other boss to take care of. He hated
the fact of it happening again on Dumary Island. Bringing more bad memories
just made it worse.
"Let me guess you knew something and you sent me that stone." Dante replied.
"You guessed right this time Dante...He's back." Lucia said.
In the same reaction Dante knew this was going to be bad news and another mess to
clean up. He hoped that his facts were not correct.
