After the event relating to the Quiphot, (Your Name) on her own, without the aid of Dante, a mentor and father figure. A man who is now trapped, alongside his brother, within the Demon world.
But this wasn't the end of her story, nor the rest of th...
Everything felt so different now of days, it feels like everyone has forgotten about the incident with the quiphot entirely from their minds, all the deaths and many casualties that it left behind. But in the end, they managed to just cover it up and rebuild the once ruined foundations of Red Grave City.
Everyone was rushing back and forth through the pouring rain, as the only light to guide them within this rainy night, were store, homes, restaurants, as well as streetlights. I guess you can say that I was one of these people, but the only difference was that I was taking my time as the rain poured down and onto my grey raincoat and deep red duffel bag, that somehow and thankfully wouldn't get the goods inside damaged.
I did get a few stares here and there, as I walked down the busy streets to get to my destination, as if they took a closer look, forou an instant, they would see a slight glimpse of my "tattoo's" underneath, even with a grey raincoat and a black turtleneck, it wouldn't stop either one of them failing to hide what was underneath it. And my height didn't make it any better either, since I looked like a high schooler, which sadly... I still was...kind of.
(I'm not saying your short guys, please have mercy on me, as I get bullied on my height too. And also the reader is technically around either 16 to 18, as it's the closest age to the TWST character's)
I was brought out of my thoughts once my phone began to buzz and vibrate within my pants pocket. I pulled out my phone, entering it into the wet and damp world around me, only to see it was an incoming phone call, I sighed before answering it.
(Your Name) - "Hello?" ??? - "Hey ankle biter, how long until you get here?" (Your Name) - "Have you never heard the term, "patience is a virtue?" The man on the other end could only chuckle at my comment, before continuing on. ??? - "You sound a lot like V, you know that right kid? Sometimes it's hard to remember that your technically Dante's kid"
I soon felt my world crush and shatter around me, it wasn't a bad omen to say his name, but that very name... Was the name of the man who took me in when nobody else did. Dante... A man I once saw as my own father, was now gone and condemned to a place he cannot escape from anytime soon.
??? - "I'm sorry for bring up his name, I know these times are a bit hard on you since he... since he left, how are you holding up kid?"
I could only sigh and continue on with my journey, as I laid out my response. (Your Name) - "Who am I kidding, everything's a mess. Morrison own the house, Trish and lady have to do job hunting, and Dante..." I began to stop in my tracks as passers-by only moved on passed me within these cramped street lanes, the world will simply move on passed me, even as I stand still.
(Your Name) - "And Dante, along with your dad. Are trapped in the demon world, with no way out...And I'm...Homeless at this very moment" (Morrison didn't kick you out btw, the reader just felt uneasy living in the house, more on that later) I hear a sigh from the other end, I knew that Nero felt the same, we both gained and lost family that day. Weithers by blood... Or not.
Nero - "At least Kyrie was willing to let you stay with us, besides we have plenty of room here for you here. And, also the fact that she would kill me if I let you sleep in the van. with her" I gave in and let out a small giggle, as we both knew from experience that Nico wouldn't be entrusted with me in a million years, mainly because of her questionable driving skills. (Your Name) - "I only have two questions to that, how did Nico even get a license and also... how on earth isn't she dead yet?"
Nero then bursted into laughter, knowing fully well that's what anyone would question, once they either know or have witnessed Nico's atrocious driving skills first hand.
It felt nice, being able to have a perfect moment like this. But fate had other plans for me. (Your Name) - "I'll see you soon Nero, and thanks for taking me in" Nero - "It's really no problem, and we both know fully well that your not "homeless" I rolled my eyes as I continued forward down the lane. (Your Name) - "Bye Nero" Nero - "See you soon, Ankle biter" I soon hung the phone up, before stuffing it into my pockets and continued on with my journey.
Time began to slowly move and almost froze in place, as I drew closer towards an ominous ally way, I could only watched as a black horse carriage race full speed towards me. I couldn't make a single sound as it drew closer and closer. Until it all faded to black, and the world around me became quiet and silent.
