"I can't believe I'm starting to miss Mako's Mother cooking..."

Ryuko Matoi, who was sitting on the couch watching TV, ate a slice of pizza with a very sad expression. Satsuki Kiryuin, who was sitting next to her, tried to ignore her depressing talk. She was focused on reading history books, no doubt trying to learn more about the world they were in. However, to say she didn't feel the same would be a lie. She looked at the small table in front of her and saw a soda that she was currently drinking from.

"... And I miss Mitsuzo Soroi making me tea..."

It was beyond clear that Satsuki and Matoi were feeling beyond homesickness, which made Senketsu watch with extreme pity and sympathy for the two, wishing more that he could help soothe their heavy hearts, though before everyone could continue to drown in despair and depression, Dante could be seen walking by them, putting on his red coat, carrying a guitar case and was about to head out

"I will be back later tonight or tomorrow morning, do you two need cash before I leave."

As Dante was about to take out some cash for the girls before he left, both Kamui-wearing Kamui-wearers couldn't help but look at each other and at him, as if in deep thought and considering something

"Dante, you're heading out to hunt Demons, am I correct?"

Satsuki, as well as Matoi, were very aware of the type of job the Man In Red did, which was killing demons and all that. It was still a shock to know such unholy beasts existed in this new world they were in. Though with such knowledge came a few ideas they had been considering.

"Mhm, Morrison just contacted me with another job, the pay seems good, so I had no reason to turn it down."

After Dante explained this, the two young ladies took a moment to think and consider something

"... May I and my partner join you on this quest?"

Satsuki decided to finally ask the Devil Hunter if he could join him, much to his surprise and interest

"Oh? And what made you interested in my life work, hm?"

Dante crossed his arms and looked at them with newfound curiosity, wondering why she would make such a request, even though he was fine with helping them out without them having to kill demons

"Plenty of reasons, Dante, be it wanting to protect humanity, a way to repay our debt to you, or even just learning the world we're in and what we are dealing with."

Satsuki had other motives and reasons besides what she just mentioned, but it was enough for the Man in Red to understand the bigger picture

"And what about you, assuming you're also coming along?"

Dante looked at the tomboy and wondered if she had the same reason as to Kiryuin for wanting to join him, or something else entirely

"I'm just pissed and I need someone to punch to make myself feel better."

Ryuko's motivation seems much simpler than that of Miss High and Mighty. Not to say that she doesn't agree or feel the same way. It was clear that she had a lot of pent-up emotions from all this and needed a way to let them out. The white-haired man understood.

"Well, alright then, if you're ready then let's go."

Dante usually wouldn't partner up with someone so easily, especially if they couldn't keep up with him, but there was something in them, and from what little he saw of them, that made him very curious and interested in what they could really do.
