Standing outside the doors of the office looking up at a sign that read " DEVIL MAY CRY " was the last thing Nero expected himself to be doing but here he was. Right outside Dante's office debating whether or not to actually go inside. Finally he just shrugged and opened the door.
" It's not locked? " Nero was rather shocked that it was open considering it was almost midnight. He walked in and looked at the desk. Dante has his back to the door with his feet up on the wall reading a magazine.
" You a customer? " He called. Nero didn't answer but he slowed his pace a little. Dante sighed a little irritated and spoke again. " Sorry pal we're not open. We closed at nine and we don't do charity work... "
" Not even for a friend? " Nero joked. Dante turned around and smiled
" Hey kid. Ha. You're the last person I would have expected to walk into my office. "
" Yeah well... I never expected to be here either Dante... "
" What brings down here to Devil May Cry kid? " Nero put his hands in his pockets and shrugged slightly, looking to the side and shifting his weight to one foot.
" I.. Got a message from someone... But I have no idea who this person is and that woman you were with, the one with the blond hair, she said you live here. Just said to look for a place called Devil May Cry... "
" A message huh? Where is it? " Nero pulled out a small envelope and handed it to Dante.
" I thought maybe you might know who it is or at least be able to point me in the right direction... " Dante looked over the note carefully then he started reading out loud, much to Nero's dismay.
" To whom it should concern... I will tell you now that the weapon you posses is one that should not be handled lightly and will only bring upon disaster for you. My advice to you is leave it and no longer associate yourself with it should you value your skin... "
" You have any idea who wrote it or what they're talking about? "
" Nope not the slightest idea kid. Probably just some prank... "
" That's what I thought... Until I saw that name on the other side of the note... " Dante looked at the note then turned it over.
" Yamato.. Alright so their talking about the sword so what? "
" Alright never mind Dante obviously this isn't getting me anywhere... "
" No no hold on you're obviously concerned about all this... " Dante leaned back so Nero couldn't take the paper from him.
" Dante come on give me the note... " Dante shook his head and smiled. " Fine forget it, keep it I have no use for it anyway... " Nero turned to leave.
" Listen kid if this is bugging you so much then stick around and I'll trace the note back to whoever sent it... " Nero was already at the door.
" Sure, but I'm gonna find a hostel or something to stay in I'm not stickin around your run-down place " Nero laughed as Dante gave him the finger and mouthed the words ' Fuck You ' to him. " Anyways Dante I'll call you later on when I've got a place... The woman gave me the number oh, and there's just one last thing... " Dante flicked his head motioning him to continue. " The man that left that at my door said something about a guy named Vergil... That mean anything to you? " Dante seemed to freeze. His stare became cold then distant... " Dante? "
" Yeah kid that name means.... Quite a bit to me... " Dante said distantly Nero sighed.
" Alright well... I'll call you later on then we'll talk... " Dante nodded and Nero turned to leave once more
