Devil May Cry ~ Fill Your Dark Soul With Light ~ {Dante x Reader}

Chapter 8: Hunter and Hunted

Some time after you and Dante left, the dead body began to speak.

"Where am I? It's dark I can't see anything..."

"You're still alive I see..." Lady commented, pointing her gun at the supposedly blind body.

"Mary..? Is that you..? What's happening?" Her father asked, using her birth name. "Where's your mother?" He asked, pinching a nerve for the lady hunter.

"My mother?! You killed her, remember?!"

"Yes... that's right.. I killed her with my own hands.. what horrible thing I have done? I was too weak... I succumbed to his influence..." Arkham claimed, blaming everything he did on the man he had just met a day or so prior.

"You mean you were possessed?" Lady asked, feeling pity on her father as he struggled. She tried to help him now, seemingly forgiving all he did.

"Yes I was manipulated.." he proclaimed, "....by a devil named Vergil....." he wasn't completely telling the truth but he wasn't completely lying either, but Lady did not know how far the lie went. 

"He's attempting to bring the demon world back to this modern day. A world Sparda sealed off."

"Sparda? I thought he was a myth!" Mary claimed, she knew the legend as her father told her it when she was little, but she never believed it.

"If the demons return, this world will be thrown into chaos" he warned his daughter, before giving his final wish and comment. "Stop him... stop Vergil! You are such a sweet child... just like your mother...." 

And with that he passed in his crying daughter's arms. She laid him to rest and then walked away, ready to kill.

{~Dante & (Y/n)~}

Invisible demons. As if things couldn't get any worse. 

Dante and you tried to fight as best you could but the teleporting demons weren't easy on you two. 

Eventually you managed to kill the monsters though and carried on with your fetch quest. Dante looked up at the catwalk above you in this new room with bloody statues and nodded to you. He hoisted you up there and handed you the Rebellion.

"Babe, hit the blocks into the holes in the wall." He instructed, and you get to work.

He stood around, waiting. Suddenly the wall dropped and you jumped over the railing, handing him the sword. As you went to leave however, more demons appeared.

It was one of the scythe carrying ones Dante had fought at the beginning. He began to shoot at it and slice it while you handled the other demon. Within minutes you were free to leave and did so.

You came across a train and stepped on, riding it to its destination and making quick work of the demons. Once at the end, you came to an area filled with fire, Dante looked toward you who's hair was seeming to... poof...? 

It gave him a little chuckle, until he himself started to sweat. 

Leather and lava don't mix. 

With that being said, you walked toward the door which was big and empty. There was a glowing thing on the other side.
