Cliff Hanger

Morgana then looked around the room before staring towards the ceiling. Vergil still standing near
the window she starts to try to think about what their father meant by what he was saying to her, she
wondered why he knew that and how he knew that information just wehn she never even knew
who he was it was surprisingly odd for her as she laid there on the bed thinking about the problem.

"How does your father know about me?" Morgana asked.

"My father, can practically look into others past and presents before or after they happen... I really
can't tell how he can do that but he is very known for that skill, it bugs me some times thinking
that all my life I wanted to be strong like father, I wanted to be like him it killed me to not be
like him I was struggling against my own self to see it happen but it came to a devastating end
as a conclusion I never seen it coming as I was struck down by my own brother..." Vergil told looking
to his hands.

"Then what happened?" Morgana asked as she sat up on the bed looking at him slightly worried.

"I had a moment of peace for a second of that time as then I realized what I was doing, I was
so egar to be like him that I've taken it down with me... I didn't want my brother to be around
me, I never wanted to reside with the humans. I never took notice to when he tried reaching
out to me." Vergil said as he looked to her.

"You mean, you thought you had bad influence?" Morgana asked.

"I've messed up, so as that portal came to close I knew staying there would leave my brother
away from my bad influences as I took that step off I felt some what happy but
sad in a way..." Vergil said.

"Then what?" Morgana asked.

"Right then I was not seeing it, he surprised me... He caught me with that damn gun of hers,
I soon then blacked out waking in this strange place I then looked over to my side
seeing my brother right next to me with watered eyes... I still got that mark
til this day." Vergil said.

"A scar?" Morgana asked looking at him as he placed his right hand up
to his upper left shoulder.

"...that's why I'm still here." Vergil said as he looked to her on the bed.

"Do you hate him for saving your life?" Morgana asked.

"...no, I seemed to forgive him for my selfishness... after that he seemed to always look over
me even though back when we where 5 I was the one watching over him... heh,
I think as it now to be a weird memory." Vergil said.

"Aww... I call that in my time to be brotherly love." Morgana

"Heh, you can say that." Vergil said as he then looked back to the window.

"Well I'm going to get my sleep then." Morgana said as she then plotted
back down onto the bed.

"Good night." Vergil said as he stood there glancing out the window to the distance
feeling that there was trouble on the way.

As five minutes went by Vergil looked to her sleeping on the bed he then walked
over to the bed side picking up a throw blanket he then covered her then headed
to the door leaving the room he sees his brother leaning
against the wall in the hallway as he then turned to look seeing Vergil walking up to him.

"So why do you think the demons want her?" Dante asked.

"I think she has some type of information of some kind that they need, or that she ran
away from some one and now that person seeks to find her." Vergil said.

"Do you think, she has something to do with the appearances of devils on this
domain?" Dante asked.

"Probably... I'm still not sure but I always have some type of feeling in
my gut telling me that this is no ordinary person." Vergil said.

"Vergil, don't mind me asking but have you met her before?" Dante asked as he folded his arms.

"Yes... and no, I'm not sure really." Vergil said as he looked back down the hall to the bed room door.

"What do you mean your not sure?" Dante asked.

"I'm going to hate to bring this up but she said she saw me a long time ago as
you too, but in that fact of trying to remember she told me that it was way
before Temen-ni-gru." Vergil said.

"Your saying she knew us that long ago?" Dante asked looking to him seriously.

"It was when we where like sixteen years of age." Dante said.

"Yeah I know that much but I then remembered asking someone to help find
that lybrary where I met Arkham." Vergil said.

"Do you think she had a part imcomon with Temen-ni-gru?" Dante asked.

"No, she was doing something else... She didn't tell me what she was
doing really but I sort of believed that she could help me." Vergil said.

"What happened when you got to the lybrary?" Dante asked.

"We went our seperate ways." Vergil said.

"That was the last time you saw her." Dante asked as he unfolded his
arms and walked away from the wall.

"She didn't follow me into the Temen-ni-gru if you're asking." Vergil said.

"Right, well I don't really know if I met her at all." Dante said.

"She did tell me that she did bump into you back then." Vergil said looking to him.

"Well back then I bumped into many things demons, dead stones, and even humans that where
like dead or near the brink of being dead." Dante said.

"Understood but have you bumped into her on the streets like Slum Ave?" Vergil asked.

"Slum Ave no, but I do remember... I think I met someone on the 13th Ave." Dante said.

"Well see now we're getting somewhere." Vergil said.

"...but I don't really heard or someone mentioning about a woman or girl at the time named
Morgana." Dante said.

"Well they really didn't speak that much after that long ago bro when father had gone missing
everything went silient." Vergil said.

"I knew that because you went missing for that whole damn year, by the way
why did you?" Dante asked

"Let's not get into that agruement." Vergil said looking to Dante seriously.

"Really Vergil, what the hell where you doing that whole time you
where gone eh?" Dante asked as he stood there looking to Vergil
straight in the face.

"I can't tell you." Vergil said.

"Why?!" Dante asked.

"Because!" Vergil said more straight forward to Dante.

Kindel in the other room sitting next to grandfather heard the yelling as he
went to get up Sparda took his arm as Kindel looked to him
he shook his head.

"Why can't I?" Kindel asked.

"It's nothing that you can help with." Sparda said.

Vergil looked to the floor as he then glanced back up to seeing Dante looking
more upset then before he hated and to know that some day this would come
up again he then shook his head as he looked
to Dante standing there looking at him as he waited
for an answer.

"...I needed to be alone." Vergil said.

"Needed to be alone, alone from me?!" Dante asked seriously.

"Dante, I'm sorry that I left you alone for that many days and to know it hurt myself inside to
see you shedding tears for mother let alone I got jealous... I was jealous Dante! I thought that
day how mom seemed to love you more then she loved me and even that day when she died
you shedded a tear for her I... I couldn't because I didn't know if she cared for me as you
sat there holding her in your arms crying looking to seeing that you cared more than me! I
wished that day had never came but father didn't stop it from happening no! He
never showed the hell up! I knew by self that father was out there and I needed to
find him not knowing if he was dead or alive I had that feeling I needed to
get to hell to where father was, if not that I cared to much that I went so far to having
you stop me at that time when I was really looking to get father back or that I had to look
after you... I never meant to harm you, I wanted to protect you..." Vergil said as he
dropped to the floor on his knees as he placed his hands
onto his face as one shed of a tear rolled down his cheak.

Dante looked to Vergil with worriness as he then knelt down in front of Vergil he
reached his arms around Vergil as he then puled him to an
embrace as Dante hugged him.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know." Dante said.

"...I'm a bad influence of an older brother, I'm sorry Dante." Vergil said as
he started to cry onto Dante's shoulder.

"No you're not, I still look up to you... no matter what happened back
then it doesn't matter now." Dante said.

As Vergil looked up he then reasured himself as he stood up Dante stood
there looking at Vergil for the moment to see if he was fine.

"I need to get some rest, I'll see you tomorow." Vergil said as he then walked
down the hall way as Dante looked to the living room doorway he saw his
father looking at him as Dante went to look back to
the hall way Vergil was gone.

Where did he go? Dante thought to his self as he then walked to the living room
glancing to the hall way as he walked in the room Kindel looked up at Dante from the
pillow on the couch as Dante looked to him.

"You can go back to sleep, or what ever you where doing." Dante said.

"I was trying to take a nap." Kindel responded as he plotted his face back down onto the pillow.

"What is it my son?" Sparda asked.

"I just want to know if Vergil is going to be fine from now on." Dante said as he sat
down on the floor joining his father in front of the fireplace.

"You have nothing to worry about my son, your brother Vergil just needs time... you know it
was the first time I've seen your brother cry, well I guess you must get some rest too." Sparda
said as he placed his hand onto Dante's shoulder as Dante then nodded with a
smile he then hugged his father good night as he got up from the floor he headed
to the bed room down the hall. Opening the door he walked over to his bed seeing the time
on the clock it said that it was only five minutes before ten at night as he looked over to
the window walking to it he pulled the curtains to the side as he glanced out to the
night he saw a clear glow of something as he looked closer to the top of that broken
column he saw something flowing in the wind looking to be a light shade of blue he
then opened the window climbing out the window standing on the ledge of the second
story roofing he looked to see that it was a golden lace dangling about from the
column with the cloth seeing only that he didn't understand what it was
as he jumped down from the roof he walked around the broken column that
stood over three stories high he looked up from below and saw a leg hanging down
the side seeing as the moon gave a faint light he noticed that the thing
on top wasn't a thing at all it was his brother sitting on top of that column for
what ever purpose it got him thinking as he turned his back to walk away he heard a voice.

"Huh?" Dante asked looking around.

"Isn't the moon beautiful tonight?" Vergil asked still sitting on top of the column.

Dante turned and looked up with a slight smirk he then shook his head and
looked to the moon.

"It's big." Dante said slightly wondered about it seeing that it almost
covered the whole sky.

"I wonder..." Vergil said as he still sat there motionless in the wind as
Dante looked up to him still not seeing his face just a leg dangling.

"What?" Dante asked.

"Come up here it looks better from here." Vergil said as he still sat there motionless.

"Are you crazy! ...It can only fit one person to sit up there." Dante said slightly
laughing with stupidness.

"Come sit on my lap." Vergil said as he looked finally over the side down to
Dante as he saw Vergil's face.

"Are you sure about that?" Dante asked jokingly.

"Fine, stay down there." Vergil said mokingly as he looked away as Dante
didn't see his face any more.

Eh, why does he do that? Dante asked his slef that question many times as he
looked up the column grabbing the column he pulled his self up to the top of the
column as his hands gripped the edges on the top he felt a tight grip on his hand
pull him the rest of the way up. Sitting on the top Dante soon saw the full moon
big and great before his eyes, he never wittnessed it that big as he sat there he felt
arms wrap around his waist.

"You see, that's what I call big." Vergil said.

"I see that, it looks like it could collide with earth." Dante said.

"No, not possible... but it might be possible to reach it." Vergil said.

"You mean walk to?" Dante asked looking back over his shoulder.

"Yeah, sort of." Vergil said as he gazed into the moon for that moment until he took his
vision off the moon he glanced with his eyes down seeing Dante looking at him as he then
shook his head slightly laughing.

"You know we can't just walk off this darn planet we would have to fly." Dante said.

"Heh... I wouldn't mind walking long distances." Vergil said.

"Teh, I wouldn't even try." Dante said mokingly.

"So you take short cuts?" Vergil asked.

"I'd jump every block if I had to." Dante said.

"..." Vergil sat there speechless for the moment.

"Bro?" Dante asked looking back over his shoulder.

"...huh?" Vergil asked with a response.

"What where you just thinking about?" Dante asked.

"Nothing much." Vergil said.

"Come on, tell me." Dante said moving his body fully around as he
positioned his self on top of his lap.

"Eh, I was just thinking about that woman." Vergil said.

"Yeah what about her?" Dante asked slightly looking confused.

"Do you think she knows more about the past then we do?" Vergil asked.

"Maybe, maybe not... but she to me looks to be more different." Dante said.

"I remember meeting a blonde before in the past that rode a motorcycle or
that's what I think." Vergil said.

"Back then I meet Lady, that rode a motor bike but you said she
was a blonde?" Dante asked.

"Not Dante it was way before that Temen-ni-gru thing happened." Vergil said.

"Why did you do that thing huh?" Dante asked.

"How many times are you going to bring that up?" Vergil asked.

"Until I get a straight answer from you." Dante said.

"Dante I did that because I wanted to protect you..." Vergil said.

Dante then smiled as Vergil tilted his head in confusement.

"What?" Vergil asked.

"I just wanted to hear you say it again that's all." Dante said slightly with a smile.

"R..right." Vergil said as he then shook his head looking to the big full moon in the sky.

Dante looked to Vergil with slight pause as he then leaned to him gently kissing him on his forehead as
he then placed his head down onto Vergil's right shoulder resting his eyes he sat there in Vergil's embrace
as Vergil soon broke from the staring at the moon which felt like he was looking for eternity but as he
looked back to his level he felt warth on his shoulder as he noticed his younger twin had just fell asleep on
his shoulder while he gazed at the moon with his arms still rested on the sides of Dante's hip he moved his
hands up Dante's back moving his hands forward he placed his hands onto Dante's shoulders and
moved him up as Dante slowly wakened he rubbed his eyes while gaining balance again he smiled
with curiosity as Vergil then shooked his head and brought his right hand around Dante's neck he
pulled Dante close to him as he then kissed him Dante's arms dropped to the stone that his
brother was sitting on pulling his strength back Vergil tilted
his head in confusement of why he backed away.

"I wouldn't think it would be safe up this high and I might fall." Dante said.

"You wont fall, trust me I've got you." Vergil said as he twisted Dante's jacket in his left hand.

"Vergil are you nuts, it's only small enough to keep you sitting on it but what
you are doing that's just much that I or both will fall from this column." Dante said.

"You're just afraid to do it out here." Vergil said jokingly.

"Okay that and still up here." Dante said as he looked over to the side.

"Trust me, no one will know and plusly everyone's sleeping." Vergil said.

"What's up wit you today, this is the worst place to even try doing something
like that." Dante said as he looked to Vergil seriously.

"You're such a baby." Vergil said as he released his grip with his left hand as
Dante then placed both of his hands onto Vergil's shoulders as he
looked at him directly in his eyes.

"I'm not a baby." Dante said seriously.

"Well if you don't want to stay up here with me then I guess you should go." Vergil said.

"I would stay but you are being a bit to much right now." Dante said.

"Sorry for being nice." Vergil said as he looked to the moon.

"There's nothing to be sorry about... by the way sorry to ruin your mood." Dante said
as he then looked to the house seeing a light on.

"I'm fine." Vergil said as he then felt weight lift off of his lap looking down he sees
Dante heading back to the house he then looked to the house seeing one light
on in the house realizing that light belonged to Kindels room he then
jumped down from the column and headed right into the house right behind
Dante as Dante looked back to seeing Vergil following him.

"I thought you wanted to stay up there?" Dante asked as Vergil walked by him.

"Something caught my eye that's all." Vergil said as he kept walking down the hall.

"And that was?" Dante asked.

"My son's bed room light is on." Vergil said as he kept walking.

"Right and I'll just follow." Dante said.

Vergil suddenly stopped as he did Dante bumped right up behind him as no
warning Dante stepped back slightly as confused.

"Warn me next time kay." Dante said as he looked to Vergil seeing him
looking to bed room door oddly.

"Did you hear that?" Vergil asked as he looked back to Dante.

"Hear what? ...I didn't hear anything." Dante said standing still behind Vergil.

Suddenly a sound of a crash coming from the other room caught there
attention as Dante turned to the room.

"That sounded like one of father's knight statues fell down that hall
way on the other side of the house." Dante said.

"Yeah it did, but I'm not headed that way right now." Vergil said as he turned
back the other way as Dante then shook his head as he then
headed off to that direction of the sound.

"Well I'm going to check it out." Dante said as he dashed down the hall.

"You do that while I check this hall out." Vergil said as he continued to walk to the bed room door
down the hall. As he got to Kindel's door he noticed that the door was half way opened pushing the
door slowly open he looked into the room as his eyes lit up his eyes scaned the room for any
presance of demons but nothing and he soon noticed Kindel wasn't in the room but as his
mind thought to himself he remembered Kindel was in the living room with his father but that
was before, he could of gone to bed after as he turned to the hall he saw a shadow quickly
vanish from down the hall with out rethinking Vergil used his dark power to appear down
the hall looking down the hall it vanished it was just a plan dark hall way turning to the
opposing hall he saw nothing hearing clanking sounds he looked quickly back down the
hall he came from seeing something move he then jerked his way to the wall with out a
sound as he stood there motionless he heard a sound coming from the other side of
the house to where Dante had gone just before.

Shit... Vergil thought to his self as he waited there patiently. As he then heard another crash he
turned to the sound, coming from behind the wall he placed his right ear on the cold wall hearing
scraping metal on the other side he looked for the door to that room seeing that it lead to the
basement he looked around then started to move to the basement door quietly opening the
door he peaked into the pitch darkness of the basement and with his eyes adjusting to that
darkness he saw like cat it was his devil inside that gave him this ability to see at night clearly,
looking down the stairs he didn't see any movement as he then felt pressure placed onto his
upper back he jumped back closing the door and hitting the wall behind him he fell to the
floor looking up slightly scared to death as his eyes where readjusting to that lightness he sat
there breathing heavily as he looked up to seeing that it was his father standing there
looking down to him.

"My son, what in Gods name are you doing?" Sparda asked as he knelt
down beside him placing his hand onto Vergils right shoulder.

"I heard something crash, and Dante went to go see it but then I heard
something in there." Vergil said as he looked to the basement door
as Sparda looked to the door he shaked his head then looked to his son.

"There's nothing down there son, stop scaring your self." Sparda said.

Vergil soon looked to the hall seeing Dante coming running around the
corner he noticed his expression said that there was something there.
Sparda stood up and with quick pace he stopped Dante in mid air as
he grabbed a hold of his collar of his coat as he dangled there for
the moment Sparda released him as he then dropped to the floor.

"Why are you running?" Sparda asked looking down to his son Dante.

"...Th...the statue, I mean...it's..." Dante said unsteadily as he sat there
shaking scared Vergil looked at him as he knew what he meant by that as
he looked at him Dante turned to Vergil as he placed his hand onto
Vergils right boot on his lower calf Vergil tilted his head confused.

"Dante?" Vergil asked.

"It's just an empty tin man..." Dante said.

"And you ran because of that?" Vergil asked looking to him seriously as he
just thought his brother just came out of a mental hospital or something.

"It's WALKING!" Dante yelled to him.

"...walking?" Vergil asked slightly looking a bit scared of that information.

Sparda looked down at both of them as he then turned to the hall where
Dante came from as he heard metal moving down the hall Dante
quickly looked down the hall as Vergil looked.

"He's coming." Dante said as he slowly lifted his self up to his feet as they saw
the metal statue figure of the knight coming around the hall Vergil tilted his
head in confusement of why Dante couldn't just break the thing down from
its feet.

"Why didn't you strike at it?" Vergil asked.

Dante turned to Vergil seriously as Sparda stood there watching the knight
figure statue walk down the hall to them.

"I did." Dante said.

"And?" Vergil asked.

"He just came back, like I have no clue but he just rebuilded his
self back up." Dante said.

"...he did?" Vergil asked slightly worried about that looking down to
the knight as he carried an double sided ax.

Sparda just stood there as Dante got up and headed down the hall
as for Vergil he just sat there watching as it got close by the minute.

"What do you think it is?" Vergil asked his father.

"Just another piece of junk." Sparda said as he walked up to the knight as it
swung the ax at him Sparda dunked around the swing as he came back up quickly
grabbing a hold of the weapon he thrusted his kick back as the knight broke into
pieces on the floor Sparda walked slightly back and watched as the knight
rebuilded it self back up, Vergil got freaked out as he moved back on the floor
Sparda just shook his head and looked to his son Vergil that crawled backwards
on the floor then looked to the knight.

"The statue is being controlled by someone go find him and kill him!" Sparda
comanded Vergil as he looked back to Vergil seriously and when Vergil saw
that expression on his fathers face he knew he was told to do something and he
had to do it as he got his strength back he jumped up from the floor and headed
down the hall looking and sensing for anything demonic of powers being used.

Sparda looked at the knight as it was just like a tin can taking his right fist right through the
helmet of the head he completely broke the head of the knight into millions of scrap
metal as the knights body fell to the floor Sparda looked around the area to see if it will
rebuild but as if nothing happened the body stay broken like as some one just destroyed
a decorative piece of work into a pile of junk. Dusting his sleeves off he started to head
down the hall way where both Dante and Vergil ran off to he looked into the living room
that stood very quiet walking into the room he spotted Kindel's jacket laying there on the
couch as if he left it lay there when he left the room but Sparda had a sense of fact that
Kindel was wearing it even when he left the room picking up the jacket Kindel's yamato
fell to the floor Sparda felt as if something just happened and he had no clue what.

Where did you go kid? Sparda asked his self as he stood there looking
around the room as he finally saw Vergil come into the
room looking very odd.

"Father, um there was no one in the house controling that thing." Vergil said.

"Well I think your son is running around without a jacket and
sword." Sparda said as he lifted the jacket in front of Vergil as he stood
there shocked. Dante walked into the room rubbing the back of his neck.

"What is it Dante?" Vergil asked as he looked to him.

"Um... someones taking a shower, and I don't think it's a man." Dante said.

"Why do you think that?" Vergil asked him looking to him
with a ockward look on his expression.

"Well one, I heard a womans voice." Dante said.

"Okay, then it is a woman." Vergil said.

"Who?" Sparda asked.

"Maybe it's that Morgana chick." Vergil said as he looked back to his father.

"Right, well you both have to find Kindel." Sparda said as he
threw the jacket to Vergil as he caught it Dante
caught the yamato which he also tossed.

"Why would your son Kindel leave his sword behind?" Dante asked.

"Maybe he wasn't planing on leaving dumbass, he was probably
sleeping and some one took him." Vergil said.

"Right and left his jacket and his sword?" Dante asked as he
looked to Vergil with a serious look on his expression.

"I have no clue Dante, just help me find him." Vergil said as
he through the jacket over his shoulder and took Kindel's sword
from Dante and started looking around the place for any
sign of him still being there.

"Would you think he's still in side the house?" Dante asked suddenly stopping hearing screaches
of metal out side the house as Vergil looked back to him running to the front door
Dante and Vergil stood out side on the porch listening to the sounds.

"Metal... I've been only hearing metal sounds why?" Vergil asked as he looked to Dante.

"I have no clue bro." Dante said as he shrugged his shoulders looking around as the moon still
stood up high in the sky Dante turned to another sound coming from the side
of the house. Both running to investigate the sound, it was nothing there was nothing on the side
of the house but they did hear the noises coming from the area so they looked
around the area for any signs of metal. Dante looked to Vergil as Vergil placed Kindel's
jacket down on the ground as he still held the sword Vergil spotted a demon walking into the
woods looking to Dante he signals him to stay but Dante soon followed right after
him Vergil came up to an open area in the woods where he saw the moon clear in the sky.

"This place doesn't feel right Vergil." Dante said as he
looked around the area.

"I've told you to stay put... what am I saying you never stay put." Vergil said as he looked
back to Dante and turned to the front of him seeing a dark figure walking forward to him.

"Stop where you are." Vergil said.

"I'm not an enemy son of Sparda."

"Who are you?" Dante asked.

"Okay how the hell do you know who my father is?" Vergil asked
looking to be a bit ticked off of hearing that.

"I know about him that's how."

"Right, so what's your name?" Vergil asked.

"My, my don't you remember me at all?"

"Not at night dumbass." Dante said.

"You need light?"

"No I want to know your god damn name." Vergil said.

"Well then, I'll give you my name if that makes you feel much better."

"Yeah it would loosen the tightness on my grip on the trigger." Dante
said lowering his Ebony gun down to his side.

"Teh, it's Remus and I was wondering what the hell are you two
doing out this time." Remus asked.

"Remus? ...right now that I know who you are tell me
did you see my son?" Vergil asked.

"Nope." Remus said.

"Eh, your not much of a help I thought you'd be." Vergil said.

"Missing is he?" Remus asked.

"Yeah and it has nothing to do with you so do you mind I need to
find him." Vergil said as he walked away from the area as Remus
looked to Vergil leaving he looked to Dante as Dante stood there for the
moment before moving Dante looked to Remus as he stood there
with an odd expression on his face then he stopped walking turning to Remus.

"What is it?" Remus asked.

"Would you be kind to help locate the missing boy with us?" Dante asked.

"I'll see what I can do." Remus said as he then vanished out
of the area Dante shook his head then headed
right after Vergil out of the woods.

"Why do you think Remus was hanging around the woods?" Dante asked.

"I have no clue but he knows something, and I have a
feeling that he wont even say nothing." Vergil said.

"He wont say anything to us but he will
defiantly say it to pops." Dante said.

"Right now I want to know where the hell Kindel ran off to." Vergil
said as he glanced around the area.

"Could' ve something happened that made him run off
like this?" Dante asked looking to Vergil slightly worried.

"No, he would've never left his yamato and jacket behind no
matter what the case was." Vergil said.

"In this case what do you think happened?" Dante asked.

"Some one took him." Vergil said looking out to the distance.

"Well then, answer this how did some one take Kindel out of
the house with out father seeing them?" Dante asked.

"I have no clue." Vergil said.

"Because it was probably some one with in the house." Dante
said leading on to more clues.

"You're saying some one in that house did this?" Vergil asked seriously.

"I'm not pointing any one out but there is at least a chance I maybe right." Dante said.

"Who are you thinking?" Vergil asked.

"Well that chick Morgana, Remus is a probably cause I have a
weird thought of seeing him out here." Dante said
as he placed his right hand up to his chin standing there thinking.

"Well to make sure that this is not that Morgana I'm going to check on
her in my room." Vergil said as he vainished into thin air. Dante looked
around the area as he suddenly saw a dark figure moving towards
his direction he pulled out his Ebony once more before opening to
fire he tilted his head at the dark figure as it stopped.

"Who goes there?" Dante asked.

"Don't point that gun at me, I will turn it to you if you
fire that human so called weapon you use."

"Huh?" Dante asked as he heard that the voice was very familiar as the person got
closer through the darkness he saw that it was his father he was pointing the
gun at very quickly he placed it back in the holster on his back.

"Jesus pops, trying to freak the hell out of me?" Dante asked seriously
as he felt his fear drop coming out of the shakes he looked to the
woods hearing the weeds moving he turned to his father as
he walked up to Dante.

"What are you doing?" Sparda asked as he stopped five feet in front of Dante.

"Well I'm looking for Kindel, what are you doing?" Dante asked.

Dante soon felt shakes tremble through out his body as he tried to
understand that why was his father really doing out side and why was
Remus out there also he never would of guessed his father being
part of some thing bad or that stupid as he looked back to the house
he saw Vergil walking out from the house looking some what distracted
as he didn't move that sudden he then stopped ten feet away as Dante
jerked his head back to his father in an odd way he smirked with evil
towards his own father as he stood there seeing Vergil standing there
with an unusal sense of something had terribly gone wrong just then.

"Son, I want you to go over to where your brother Vergil is." Sparda said
looking to Dante in an odd way that made Dante not believe anything.
Looking to Vergil he shook his head in a disagreement towards
his father as he saw that the darkness was still covering his fathers
full face and that it was begining to get colder where he stood as he
backed up a couple steps away from his so called father he shook his
head and pointed the gun back up to his fathers face. As Vergil suddenly
yelled out to Dante catching his voice he
slightly glanced over his shoulder to Vergil.

"Dante whta the hell are you doing?!" Vergil asked in worriness as he
shook his head in to telling Dante to stop what he was doing.

Sparda stood there motionless as he looked down the barrel of the gun
that pointed at him deck in the face as Dante stood seven feet away it was
still a close range to loose a head, but which Dante forgot the basic thing he
him before.

"What the fuck is going on?! ...pops decided to go on the demons side for once." Dante
said looking at him right into the eyes as Dante looked directly into his fathers
eyes he saw the pitch darkness that he once saw before as a flash of memory
hit him he saw a memory right in front of him as he stood there
with the gun pointed to his father as he saw in that flash he saw his
mother looking at him with a smile and right in the back he saw that same
glow in the eyes of his father that last time he saw him as if it was
something of that past he quickly snapped out of it as he shook his
head violtiently Vergil moved slighty to Dante then stopped as Dante
looked angered to his father that stood there.

"FUCK YOU! ...you fucking left the day she died! ... Why? why am I..." Dante said as
he dropped the gun to the ground as it hit the ground he dropped to his knees
holding his head. Vergil looked at Dante as he kneeled there on the
ground as he looked up to their father that was still standing there not
moving Vergil then moved to Dante's side as he placed his hand onto Dante's
shoulder Dante shoved Vergil as he reached for his gun, Vergil tried to reach
to stop Dante he then fired not once but twice at his father one in the chest and
one on the arm as Vergil knocked him down to the ground stopping him from
completely putting holes into their father as he stood there Vergil looked
to him.

"...father?" Vergil called him as he stood there motionless as his right
hand lifted up to his chest.

"Dante why the hell did you fire at him?!" Vergil yelled at him as he slapped
Dante across the face as he laid there. Getting up Vergil turned to their father
as he then nodded his head as Vergil watched
that the gun didn't even do any damage as if Vergil seemed that he
wanted him to shot him.

"...it's his fault she's dead, I hate him." Dante said as he looked to the ground
seeing a drop of water hit his hand as he then looked to the sky as rain soon
fell from it he looked to the ground ashamed as Sparda walked forward out
of the darkness he stood there looking to his youngest son on the ground
soon to be covered in water and mud from the ground kneeling down in front of him.

"I'm sorry..." Sparda said.

Vergil looked to his watch then looked to the sky seeing that it was well at
midnight as he looked to Dante on the ground.

"Fahter why did he do that?" Vergil asked.

"It was the same day she had past away, he remembered." Sparda said
looking to Dante as he sat there looking dead as he watched
the ground become soaked.

"Today?" Vergil asked.

"Yes it was, but a long time ago." Sparda said looking to
Vergil as he stood there.

"I want to find my son, father." Vergil said.

"Don't worry I know where he is." Sparda said.

"Then can we get going." Vergil said.

"You can head back Vergil I need to be here with Dante for a
few more minutes." Sparda said.

"I'll be back at the house." Vergil said as he then headed off.

Dante looked up to his father as he shook his head in grief.

"My you remember everything don't you?" Sparda asked.

"I'm sorry that I shot at you I just got a weird feeling that you..." Dante said.

"What that I was with the demons? ...Dante I would never take
their side even if it meant your life." Sparda said.

"I saw mother, you where there with those eyes." Dante said as he
looked into his fathers eyes and still saw that faint light.

"...heh, I've always had these eyes son. You have them as well." Sparda
said as he placed his hands onto Dante's shoulders.

"Let's go back home son." Sparda said as he stood up holding his
hand out to Dante as Dante took his hand Sparda lifted him up
from the ground and they soon started to walk back to the house.

"Pops, I was wondering... why where you hanging around
that area near the bridge?" Dante asked.

"I used to watch the moon there with your mother, it's the only
place she really loved to visit." Sparda said.

"When will you take me there?" Dante asked.

"Some day son, some day." Sparda said as he looked
ahead down the path the house was in view.

"So where is Kindel?" Dante asked looking to him.

"He wanted to sleep in my room for the night." Sparda said looking to Dante.

"Why did he leave his stuff in the living room?" Dante asked.

"Cause he wanted me to watch over them." Sparda said.

"Ohh, okay... next time he better tell his father before he does
anything because he takes things very seriously." Dante said.

"You could've just asked me." Sparda said.

They soon came up to the house walking in Dante saw
Vergil sitting on the couch as he turned to them.

"Don't worry bro, he's in pops room sleeping." Dante said.

"Then why..." Vergil said as he looked to his father.

"He wanted me to watch them." Sparda said as he walked into the
room and sat down right in front of the fire place.

"Right, and I'm supose to think it's going to be fine?" Vergil asked looking to his father.

"There's nothing to be so bold about son, go get some rest you need it." Sparda told
him as Vergil then nodded his head and walked out of the room taking his coat
off in the hall he opened his father's bed room door which he never slept in for years
looking in the room he spotted his son as told was there sleeping in the bed he then walked
over to the side of the bed sitting on the side of the bed he folded his jacket over his
right arm and then leaned over his son kissing him on the forehead he then tucked him
in for the night.

"Good night son." Vergil said as he then got up and walked over to the door being slightly
stopped in his tracks he turned to the bed.

"Father, is uncle alright?" Kindel asked as he sat up under the covers.

"He's fine, go back to sleep... I'll see you tomorow for breakfeast." Vergil said.

"Good night dad." Kindel said as he then rolled back under the covers.

"Good night." Vergil said as he then walked out of the room quietly closing the
door he looks down the hall seeing Dante leaning against the wall he then shrugged his
shoulders and placed his jacket on the coat racket in the hall and walked over to
Dante's side as he stood there looking at the floor oddly.

"Are you okay?" Vergil asked.

"Huh?... oh yeah I'm fine just not that tired yet." Dante said.

"So when do you plan on going to bed?" Vergil asked.

"Not soon, why?" Dante asked as he looked to him.

"Because I'm going to use your bed for the night if you don't mind." Vergil said as he started
to walk to the room looking at Dante as he then shook his head.

"Why my room?" Dante asked.

"Because there's a woman in my room and I need a bed to sleep in." Vergil said.

"So mine?" Dante asked.

"You got a problem with me sleeping in your room?" Vergil asked jokingly with a smirk.

"No not really, just don't take up the whole bed." Dante said.

"Oh don't worry I only stay on one side of the bed, it's you that moves alot." Vergil said.

"What's that suppost to mean?" Dante asked looking at him seriously.

"Nothing, it's just saying I'm not the one that switches sides in the bed." Vergil said.

"Right, so make sure when I get in there I don't have to crawl over you." Dante said.

"Don't worry I like the inside of the bed more than the outer side." Vergil said jokingly as
he opened the door and walked backwards into the room shutting the door as
Dante stood there shaking his head slowly with a smirk on his face as he looked to the
hall way leading to the living room he saw his father walk out to the kitchen wondering why
he walked to the kitchen seeing his father looking out the back window Dante sat down
on the chair in the room Sparda with out noticing that he was in the room with him
Dante looked to the table shockingly he jumped when he saw a white glove appear in front
of him on the table looking up he saw his father looking down to him.

"Yes pops?" Dante asked.

"Why are you still up son?" Sparda asked.

"I'm not tired." Dante said.

"Well you're not going to get tired if you don't go lay down for once." Sparda said.

"I tried that already pops, it doesn't work on me." Dante said looking to the table.

"You should still go lay down, get relaxed for tomorow." Sparda said.

"I would if I didn't have these stupid memories always popping up when ever something
stupid happens to me or some one else, it bugs the crap out of me." Dante said.

"So staying up is going to get rid of those memories you so called stupid?" Sparda asked
looking to his seriously.

"Well it's hard to explain it pops." Dante said as he got up from the chair and walked over
to the counter in the middle of the room leaning over it he looked to the window bringing
his self around the counter he walked over to the window in the room glancing to the
distance of darkness of the night he looked down to his hands closing his eyes to relax
as Sparda stood over near the table he wondered what he was doing.

"I'll held her in my arms and watched her die... With these arms I punish those who
caused her death... though I don't see it being helpful to my pain, I went so far that
I pushed my self to the limits of being not who I was any more... I went to him in spite
of asking why he took her life and he told me she was useless... useless which she wasn't
and moking me of telling me that he can make her? ...I can never get over that, I hear those
words to many and it hurts just to try and see if I will some day see her once more... father
I don't think I can do this any more..." Dante said as he stood there with his eyes closed
seeing blackness and nothing for that moment as he stood there. Sparda walked over to his
side and placed his hand onto his shoulder.

"My son, it's something that has come to pass... She gave her life away so that
you may live, it's hard to take that but as I was almost near that point in my life
to where if I would die I would never be with her though my soul will vanish into
the pits of hell to where she's gone to heaven. I want you to think about the good things
she has done for you not of all the bad things that happened, I do think about her every day
but even if I did all good for the humans and only did the right things I will never get
to see her once more though it does hurt me. I know for one thing that you and your brother
are the most thing she ever charished in her life and in those little songs she sang to you both
she meant to say that no matter the problems she wants you both to grow strong
and live happily not sad my son. So for those little things she done she still watches
over you two so I want you and your brother to stop keeping yourselves locked
in differences and for once be what you think your mother would want for you
to be okay son." Sparda said as he stood there looking into his sons eyes as a tear
drop rolled down his face he then nodded his head.

"Thanks pops, for being here." Dante said.

Sparda then pulled his son in to an embrace as he hugged him for the moment.

"Now I want you to go to your room and get some sleep." Sparda said as he kissed Dante
on his forehead. Dante then headed to his room feeling more confidient in his
self as he walked into his room he took off his boots and jacket changing into
his sweat pants he walked over to the bed sitting down on the side of the bed seeing
Vergil had already past out, lifting the covers he then laid down facing away from his brother
he looked to the window that was on the wall near the end of the bed as he sat there
wondering of what his father told him right then he glanced out to the stars in the dark sky.
Feeling the bed move he quickly looked over him seeing that Vergil has turned to him under the
covers looking back to the window he then slightly smiled and closed his eyes as he felt
weight on his waist looking down to see it was Vergil's arm resting there calming he then
closed his eyes to fall alseep as he then soon past out in the embrace of his older twin.


The next day came sooner as expected as Dante opened his eyes feeling the weight
gone he looked back seeing and empty space left on the bed he looked over to his clock to
see that it was well over past twelve o'clock in the after noon he then sat up rubbing
his eyes as the door swung open looking he saw his brother coming into the
room with out notice he rubbed his eye to much that it started to sting twitching his
finger he then completely held his right eye with his palm on his face.

"Damn it, friggin forgot that I was even rubbing my eye." Dante said.

"Good after noon bro." Vergil said as he sat down on the side of the
bed next to him with a cup of coffee that was freshly poured into the cup as it was still
a bit hot and had that dark bitter taste which Vergil seemed to like and it really
didn't go with Dante's tastes the bitter was to much it woke him like a scolding
shower.

"Whoa, like that is way to bitter." Dante said.

"Are you awake?" Vergil asked.

"Now I am." Dante said.

"Heh, I know it's a bit bitter today." Vergil said.

"You made that?" Dante asked.

"No, Morgana did she asked and I told her I liked it bitter." Vergil said.

"You could of at least told her I didn't." Dante said.

"Well I really didn't tell her that you wanted any, thought you would like to try mine." Vergil
said jokingly.

"Well that's just great then, thanks." Dante said.

"I wasn't going to come in here and give you breakfeast if that is what you're thinking." Vergil said.

"No, I wasn't." Dante said as he got up off the bed and walked to the bathroom door
in the room opening the door he soon noticed something was oddly
missing looking to Vergil with a slight smirk on his face Vergil got up and walked over
to him.

"What is it?" Vergil asked.

"The towels are gone." Dante said looking at the racket that held the towels.

"I guess you can ask Morgana about that." Vergil said.

"What now?" Dante asked slightly confused placing his hands onto his hips.

"She said they needed to be cleaned so she took them to the laundry down the street." Vergil said.

"They needed to be cleaned?" Dante asked looking at him seriously.

"Well they do need to be washed once in a while." Vergil said.

"They where new towels I just got them the other day." Dante said.

"Well I can't really do much now since they are at the cleaners." Vergil said.

"I can't take a damn shower now, that's just great." Dante said as he closed the door and
walked over to his bed sitting down on the end of the bed Vergil walked over to join him
he sat down nest to him with a smile.

"What?" Dante asked.

"Nothing, it's just you look very funny when you wake up." Vergil said.

"Well thanks for the info I'll remember to lock my door from now on." Dante said.

"There are no locks on the doors except the front and back." Vergil said slightly
laughing.

"Are you friggin kidding me? ...no locks on the bed room doors?!" Dante said shocked
as he looked to Vergil with a serious look that Vergil just broke down
laughing as he shook his head.

"You're so serious when it comes to privacy aren't you?" Vergil asked as he sat there
laughing.

"Well at least I like keeping my privacy unlike some body." Dante said.

"You're such a nut... there are locks on the doors." Vergil said as he slightly started
to stop laughing as he got his self back together.

"Well that's just great, make me act like a foul in the morning." Dante said.

"Not really you're just very easy to make jokes seem very easy." Vergil said.

"Ha ha, very funny." Dante said as he looked to his dresser looking to Vergil
he then shrugged his shoulders.

"What?" Vergil asked.

"My clothes is still in the dressser drawers right?" Dante asked.

"Yeah, why are you being so serious about that?" Vergil asked.

"Just making sure." Dante said.

"Well next time look to make sure, and try not to be very serious because I'll just break
down laughing." Vergil said slightly laughing at him as Dante pushed him
gentle way that just made him lean more to the side as Vergil looked to him
more oddly.

"Why did you push me?" Vergil asked as he looked to him with a smirk.

"Because you're laughing at me." Dante said as he got up and walked over to his dresser and
took out one of his outer wears as he took out his red vest and pants he headed to
the bath room.

"I thought you weren't going to take a shower?" Vergil asked.

"I'm not, I'm going to get changed." Dante said as he walked into the bath room door
closing the door behind him Vergil shook his head slightly.

"Since when did you have to get changed in a different room from me?" Vergil asked.

"Well I'm still tired, and I... I just need to be alone for a moment." Dante said.

"Right... Well then." Vergil said as he walked over to the bath room door turning the
knob he opened the door and looked into the room seeing Dante's head
in the sink as the water runned cold over his head Vergil walked to his side placing
his hand onto Dante's upper back Dante just staid there.

"Why do you have your head in the sink?" Vergil asked.

"My head is hot." Dante said.

"Hot?" Vergil asked as he lifted Dante's head from the sink and placed his hand onto
Dante's forehead feeling that it wasn't even hot.

"Well you don't have a fever." Vergil said.

"Duh, I know that." Dante said.

"Then why are you saying you're hot?" Vergil asked looking at him confused.

"I't's inside that's hot." Dante said as he placed his head back in the sink. Vergil then turned
the water off as Dante lifted his self up from the sink he looked to Vergil seriously.

"Why did you turn the water off?" Dante asked.

"That's not going to help." Vergil said as he placed his hand onto Dante's
right shoulder. Dante looked to him confused slightly as he felt his body gain weight
as his legs went numb falling into Vergils arms.

"What the fuck my legs?" Dante asked looking at his legs.

"What are you doing Dante?" Vergil asked.

"I'm not doing anything I can't feel my damn legs." Dante said.

Vergil then picked Dante up in to his arms and carried him to the
bed in the room and laid him down as Dante's hand twitched.

"What the fuck was that?" Vergil asked looking at his hand that twitched.

"I have no clue, bro get me some water... I'm thirsty." Dante said as he looked to Vergil.

"I'll be back with the drink you stay awake." Vergil said.

"Don't worry I'm wide awake to fall asleep again." Dante said as he looked at his hands
and started to think what was happening to him as he laid there.

Vergil came back in the room as Morgana followed right behind him walking into
the room seeing Dante on the bed with a worried expression on his face as he
took the water from Vergil drinking it down like it was nothing Vergil took the empty
glass placing it on the end table near the bed.

"What's the matter?" Morgana asked Dante as she looked at him.

"I have no freaking clue right now." Dante said looking at his hands and then
looking at his legs.

"Are you trying to move your legs?" Vergil asked.

"Dude, I can't even feel them you think I can move them." Dante said.

"Why is your right hand twitching?" Morgana asked as she sat down on the side of the bed.

"I have no clue why the hell that's happening but Vergil can you get pops." Dante said
looking to Vergil as he then nodded his head and headed out of the room after their
father.

"Does this always happen?" Morgana asked.

"No this is the first time it happened to me." Dante said.

"Did you feel some thing weird before your legs went numb?" Morgana asked.

"Yeah, I felt like a volcano." Dante said.

"You mean you felt hot like a volcano?" Morgana asked.

"The same thing." Dante said.

"I know I was joking with you." Morgana said slightly smiling at him.

"You think this is funny, that I can't feel my legs?" Dante asked looking at her with a smirk.

"I just want to make you feel happy." Morgana said with a smile.

"Thanks." Dante said as he looked to the door seeing both his brother
and father walk in.

"What is the problem now?" Sparda asked.

"Your son can't feel his legs." Morgana explained to him.

"Oh, is that so... Dante I'm going to ask you this question and your going to answer it
with a yes or no." Sparda said.

"Uh, okay." Dante said in to agreeing with the question.

"Was it a sick feeling?" Sparda asked.

"What does that have to do with this?" Dante asked.

"Answer the question." Sparda said looking to him seriously.

"Um... no." Dante said.

"Then there is nothing wrong with your legs." Sparda said.

"What do you mean there is nothing wrong with them I can't move them." Dante said
pointing to his legs.

"You'll be able to move them in a while." Sparda said.

"What are you talking about?!" Dante asked slightly ticked of not knowing what he meant.

"Can you two leave the room for a moment, thank you." Sparda said as they both left the
room closing the door Sparda walked over to the bed sitting down on the side he looked to
Dante with a positive look.

"What are you saying father?" Dante asked worried.

"The reason of the this is because you have been away from your passionate side, your
body is trying to reside its self to your pace." Sparda said.

"What?" Dante asked confused.

"I'n our demonic selves I was in hell as the passionate demon the only one in kind that
has tooken in humans not like others." Sparda said.

"Are you saying something like a generation thing?" Dante asked still looking
confused at his father.

"...eh, there are demons all different from each other I my self was different from all,
I had thought about it for a while and then I knew that some thing could go
wrong but the reason how I fell for the humans is because being a passionate demon
I had feelings, which other demons didn't." Sparda told Dante.

"Are you saying that me and bro might have that same thing?" Dante asked.

"There's no doubt you both have been pass downs, so that now you know you must
be careful because whom ever you fall for it will stick to you like glue." Sparda said.

"I'm part passionate demon?" Dante asked.

"You and your brother." Sparda said.

"And this is one of the causes of it?" Dante asked.

"It's just a reaction of it trying to readjust its self with your pace." Sparda said.

"Why does it do this?" Dante asked.

"Have you fell in love?" Sparda asked.

"Uh, I have no clue father." Dante said.

"Well when you feel love for someone it's not like humans way but you will never stop
falling for that person even if you hate each other to death." Sparda said.

"That's why I feel so weird every day..." Dante said to his self as he looked at his
hands.

"What was that?" Sparda asked.

"What will happen if I allow that person to love me?" Dante asked.

"Well, if it's one sided love thing... is it you or them?" Sparda asked.

"...them." Dante said looking to his father oddly.

"Hate or love?" Sparda asked.

"I don't know." Dante said.

"Well then you?" Sparda asked.

"I really don't know I try to avoid it." Dante said.

"So your not loving this person and this person loves you, not asking who but
how many times do you avoid this person." Sparda asked.

"Almost every time." Dante said.

"How many people did you see?" Sparda asked.

"Um... I think three." Dante said.

"Who was the first person?" Sparda asked.

"I don't know... I forgot." Dante said rubbing the back of his neck.

"Well that person you where with the first, will be a bit hard." Sparda said.

"Why?" Dante asked.

"Well you know what I told you in the begining of this conversation." Sparda said.

"Ohh... that's why, well that sucks alot." Dante said.

"Well now that you know, can you move now?" Sparda asked as he looked to his legs.

"I'll try." Dante said as he finally moved his legs up he looked to his father with a smile.

"Wow you where right." Dante said as he slid to the end of the bed
sitting up he looked back to his father sitting on the other end as he
got up and walked to the door opening the door he looked to Dante and then left
the room. Dante looked to the floor and then shooked his head and thought it over
as he tried to remember when he was very young in his teens he looked over seeing
Vergil coming in the room and then saw Morgana leaning against the door way looking
into the room with a smirk.

"So you can move, how did he do it?" Vergil asked as he sat down next to him.

"Vergil did father ever tell you what type of demon we are?" Dante asked.

"No, but I never thought of asking why?" Vergil asked.

"Well pops told me every thing about it and let me tell you it's something
you're really going to want to know about." Dante said.

"Well what then?" Vergil asked.
