The red clad devil hunter awoke from what seemed like a long nap. He finds himself inside some type of medical room. The walls were a navy blue with accents of white and gray. The cot he was in was surprisingly comfortable and the equipment seemed state of the art. It subtly reminded him of a room that his twin clad in blue would have, just without the medical equipment.

Speaking of his twin, the man realizes they must have separated along with his nephew. The man now needed to get going to search for them. He looked to see where his weapons were and saw they were in a closet. He tried to open it and the thing was locked.

“Well at least I can say that they are smart.” The man says to himself. 

He continues to jiggle the closet and accidently takes the doors off the handle. An alarm starts to blare. 

“Aww shit, this is already turning into a shit show.”

The room door bursts open revealing a young woman runs in with her weapons drawn. She looked at least 25 sporting a catsuit with half black and white hair. Her eyes are a dark red and her skin is slightly tanned. Her physique could show she could handle a fight. 

Dante puts his hands up,“Look you are beautiful and if I were 20 years younger, I would definitely want to take you on a date. But I am an old man and not a creepy one, but I really need to get out of here to look for my brother and nephew.”

The woman smirks,“Well for an old man, you aren’t bad looking and at least you offered a date. But care to explain why the closet is doorless?”

“Yeah about that, I may have not known my own strength and broke the doors trying to get my weapons.”

The woman begins to feel her adrenaline going through her system,“Are you telling me you took those doors off yourself? No one besides me or my boss can do that. Are you even human?”

Dante shrugs with his arms still up,“Nah, pops was a demon and my mom was human. They fell in love and had me and my brother. I am a twin but I am a lot more friendly than he is.”

“I want to believe you but I’ve let my guard down before and I almost died.”

“I am sorry to hear that. How about we make a deal?”

 
The woman eyes the man suspiciously, “What kind of deal?”

“You let me take my weapons but you can keep an eye on me. You can still point your gun at me to make you feel safe. I am used to having weapons pointed at me.”

“Fine but one wrong move and you get shot.”

The man gathers his weapons with the woman’s watchful eye. As he was picking up his weapons, the woman couldn’t help eyeing his physique from behind. She could tell he was built like a Greek god underneath those clothes. He was really handsome too even if he was a little older.

The sound of her phone ringing took her out of her lustful thoughts. She looked to see her boss calling her. She answered and let him know the situation was taken care of. He was grateful but he was insistent that he needed to see the stranger.

She hangs up the phone and looks at the man,“The boss would like to see you.”

“Lead the way, babe. I’ll keep my hands up until we get there.”

“Hmmm…babe. I kinda like that coming out of his mouth.” She thought as she and the handsome stranger walked to her bosses’ office.
