(Dante's POV)

Perfect everything's ready, He's gonna hate me for this but I don't care, today's the kids day, and imma make it extra special,

"Hon, were are the others?" Lady asked me, "dont worry baby, they'll be here." I say, mary And I have been planning this surprise for weeks and the kids been suspicious, but we're always one step ahead of him, poor kid forgets too easy,

The front door opens and I'm not at all surprised who I see, "dante, how's it hanging!?" Nero asks, "not bad, how bout you two?" I ask, kyrie shrugs and smiles at me, "im still the only thing keeping him from killing Nico." Kyrie says, I laugh and Nero sighs, "you know I wont kill her." Nero defends,

Speaking of Nico, her and Vergil walk in next...carrying all the boxes, "oh but I'll DEFINITELY kill you." Nico threatened, "I'll help." Vergil says, I walk to them and take half there boxes to help them out, "come on we'll set them down here." I say, I lead nico and vergil to a table to set the boxes down,

"Okay, everyone in position he'll be back soon." Lady says, we turn the lights off and get into our hiding positions,

(??? POV)

I walk back home empty handed and annoyed, why did Mom send me to get there next assignment from Morrison, he usually calls them, I know this cuz that's what he told me, just now, I guess she thought something happened to him, oh well, doesn't matter now, I'm heading home, and if there's a problem then its mom, dad, and Morrison's,

I open the from door and the lights are off, "the fuck, power isn't due is it?" I flick the light switched and- "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" my family yells as they jump out, I jump a bit but I calm down and look at everyone, I laugh a bit and look around, "what is this?" I ask, "we got you bud, admit it we did." Dad says, "haha, yeah you guys got me, thanks, really." I say, its been a long time since we celebrated like this, even my earlier birthdays weren't this big,

"Well come on cuz, lets party!" Nero says, I nod and walk to my parents, "what's with this guys, did something else happen?" I ask, "what do you mean sweetie, cant we just celebrate your birthday?" Mom asks, "yeah kid come on, your missing the big picture, your one year closer to drinking age." Dad says, "Dante!" Mom yells, "well thanks guys, I love this." I say, I hug my parents and walk to my uncle to talk with him,

(Time skip)

We're all having a great time and laughing, even Vergil, and he's what dad calls 'a total fuckin square' dad always did speak his mind, dad got up a while ago for something and hasn't come back yet, "alright kid now for the good part." Dad says, I turn around and see him carrying a medium size box, "and here I thought the party was the good part." I say, "don't get sappy on me kid." Dad says, he sets the box on a table and gestures me to it, I pull a chair up to the box and started to rip the wrapping paper off it, when I open the box I see...two pistols in it,

"Wha-what?" I ask, I look at my dad, "there yours bud." Dad says, I look them again and I can feel myself tear up, "th-thanks guys, I love them." I say, "well that's not all." Vergil says, I turn around in my seat to see Vergil and Nero holding boxes, "what, no way, there's more?" I ask, "course, you didn't think we'd only get you guns, demon hunters are always prepared." Nero says, they set the boxes down in front of me and smile at me, "take your pick." Nero says, I look at the boxes and grab the on with no wrapping on it, definitely Vergil's gift, I open it and look inside, I see a pair of silver gauntlet's and greaves,

"For real old man, you got him hand me downs for this!" Nero says, "no no, its okay Nero, I like them, the only weapons like these I've seen are dads, do these have a name to?" I ask, Vergil nod and looks at them, "Beowulf
