Chapter 3
Dante actually hadn’t left after the kid had fired his gun at him. He had been far to intrigued by the kid to leave; he wanted to know more about him. The fact he kid reminded him of himself, was another facture. Ok a younger, less wordily version, but still the same cocky attitude. Not to mention the strength that he possessed, and that was even without including his arm. That arm held a great amount of power, Dante could feel it, and it seemed the kid was able to control it without even thinking. There was definitely more to him, than meet the eye. He watched the kid exit the church with a new sword strapped to his back. This one looked similar, yet different from the one he had been using during their fight, and Dante had no doubt, after having watch the kid in the church with the borrowed sword, that he could handle the one that he had strapped to him. Dante stuck to the roofs of the city as he followed the kid. As he watched the kids progress through the castle, Dante became more and more interested in boy. His strength was impressive, not to mention that the kid wasn’t bad in the looks department either. Dante didn’t usually go after guys, he much preferred the softness of women to the hard muscle of men, however, there were times, when he would find one that happened to catch his eye, and unfortunately the kid had done just that. After watching him defeat the giant toad, and head for a secret passage that went through the waterfalls of the castle, Dante decided to give the kid a little tease. He figured the boy had been sent after him by this Order group, so he figured it would only be nice of him to let the kid think that he was on the right track to catching him. “What the hell is this??” Dante asked as he sauntered out from behind some trees casually, throwing his arms out and taking in the rain forest that was surrounding them now. As expected the kid drew his guy, and aimed it at Dante, who pretty much ignored it and kept talking. “Must be an effect of the gate.” He stated finally looking at the kid, who looked confused, which Dante couldn’t help but think that it made him look even cuter. Dante just smirked, and walked backwards over the edge of the cliff, watching the boy run up to the edge. Once on the ground he waited by some old abandoned buildings, he knew the kid would be long, and as expected he had showed up quite quickly. Dante resumed his quiet following of the boy, knowing that he would most likely be needed to help the kid, but not before having to face the kid in a fight again, that much he knew. **************** Nero just couldn’t believe the number of demons that he had, had to fight going through Fortuna Castle, not the mention the gate he had to close also. ‘What the fuck is going on?’ he thought as he made his way through the tunnel under the waterfall. He wasn’t expecting to see Dante this soon into his mission, and his first instinct was to draw Blue Rose from her holster. Dante had mentioned the strange rain forest, and Nero had to admit that he was also confused as to what had caused it seeing as he had just finished running through a blizzard. He continued to watch as Dante walked over to the edge, and then walked off it. Nero ran to the edge with just enough time to watch him seem to fall gracefully to the forest floor beneath. ‘Well at least I have interesting pray to chase.’ Nero thought with a smirk on his face as he holstered Blue Rose once again, and headed into the forest to find a way down and continue to follow Dante. ************** Nero had been through hell trying to get through this god damn forest, and he was really not having fun with all the stupid demons, not to mention he wanted to rip that stupid Order scientist in half. What was his name again, oh right Agnis. That son of bitch was going to pay for ramming a sword through his chest. Who the fuck did that asshole think he was anyways? The only up side to whole thing, was that he had gotten a new sword out it, the down side was with the new sword came the added power, not to mention the strange transformation that kept happening whenever he called the sword out from his Devil Bringer. I was all pissing him off and giving him a headache. No doubt that son of bitch had run back to the order to tell them about his arm, and about him taken the sword also. His thoughts were confirmed when he saw Credo waiting for him as he topped the steps leading to headquarters. “That’s a look you shoot your enemies.” Nero goaded, but Credo didn’t respond. “Ok let me ask you this, what the hell is the order up to anyways, and who’s Dante?” Nero had to ask, he had heard the name from Agnis, and it was driving him crazy not knowing who that was. “You do not demand answers from me!” Credo screamed has he lunged at Nero with his sword. Nero managed to evade the first strike, but not the second, so he quickly brought up his Devil Bringer to block. “You possess the power of demon.” Credo shot at him, with a look of disgust on his face. “Back down, I don’t want to hurt you. I won’t do that to Kyrie.” “You hurt me.” Credo scoffed. “You don’t get it do you?” All of a sudden a golden light surrounded Credo and the next thing Nero knew, he was staring at another demon, the only problem was this one spoke with Credo’s voice. After this, Nero stopped listening to the other man, he just couldn’t he would stoop so low just for power. Most of the battle was a blur to Nero, he had managed to take out Credo, without killing him. He started to approach Credo to help him to his feet, and maybe get some answers from the other man, but a shrill scream stopped in his tracks. “How could…” Kyrie wasn’t able to finish the sentence; she was too busy staring at Nero’s arm. “Kyrie, it’s not what you think.” Nero started towards her only to stop when he noticed that she was shaking her head, and backing away from him. “So what, I’m to believe that I am imagining that degusting demon arm?” She asked, getting some of her strength back now that Credo had come to stand behind her. Nero didn’t know what to say to that, he didn’t care for her in a romantic way, but hearing those words coming from her hurt. He continued to stand there and stare in disbelief, hands at his side, and his world slowly chattering around him. Kyrie had been the one person that he had thought would understand his arm, he had gotten it trying to save her, he figured that, that would mean something, but as he watched, she continued to look at him with disgust and loathing in her eyes. **************** Dante couldn’t take it anymore as he watched all the fight leave the kid. He had seen that the girl was important to him, and that what she had said, along with the look in her eyes, was slowly destroying the last bits of hope that the kid had had. Dante knew all too well what it was like to have someone they care about, turn on them, just because they had found out that they were different. He knew what it was like to be treated like a monster, when he had never done anything to warrant it. “So this is how you treat the people in your life, who do nothing but protect you? Huh, go figure.” Dante stated as he came up the last few steps and into to view. “Well at least you have saved me the trouble of trying to find you Dante.” Credo sneered. “Hey kid, you just gonna sit there and let them talk down to you?” Dante asked trying to get some sort of a reaction from the boy. “Their right, I’m nothing more than a Devil, I don’t belong among normal people.” Nero stated defeated, not even looking up from his feet. “Right cause your buddy over there can still be considered human.” Dante stated sarcastically. “My power is that of an Angel.” Credo spat between clenched teeth. “Much like your own, seeing as you are the son of Sparda after all.”At this Nero’s head snapped up, and looked towards Dante, shock clearly written across his face. “So you know about that, well I’m not surprised, you knew my name, and only people who know of me know that. The only problem pal, is I am no angel, and my father, if you can even call him that, was no God either.” “Sparda risked his life for the human race, and even sacrificed his powers to save us.” Credo preached. Dante couldn’t help laughing at this point. ‘Man people are stupid.’ He thought. “Look you wanna know the truth, my father only cared for one human, my mother, and it was for her that he closed the portal to the demon world, as far as he was concerned you could all burn in hell. He held no love for humans, you’ve all just been blinded by the lie that was told to hide the truth.” “You’re lying!” Credo yelled. “What reason would I have for lying?” Dante asked. Nero was stunned once again as he listened to everything that was being said around him. Dante had just told them that the individual that they had been worshipping was nothing more than a demon who wanted to protect the woman he loved, and no one else. He could see Credo, and Kyrie both shaken their heads in denial, eyes wide in shock. Nero vaguely heard footsteps approaching him, and turned to see Dante standing beside him, with a look of understanding in his eyes. As Nero looked at him, a thought occurred to him: ‘I want to kiss him.’ He had no idea where the thought had come from, but it wasn’t the first of its kind either. He had been trying to deny that he thought that Dante was attractive, and this was even before he had learned his name, and now the impulse seemed to be much stronger, with him standing so close. Dante saw the look flash through the kids eyes, and saw him start to lean somewhat towards him, he knew what the kid wanted, and hell he wanted it to, besides he figured the kid could use the pick me up, especially after what had just happened. Dante turned the kid to face him, and cupped his cheek with the palm of his hand. The boy leaned into the touch, closing his eyes, and Dante spared a quick look in the direction of the other two, before lowering his mouth to that of the boy in front of him, in a slow gently kiss.While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
