Immortals (Devil may Cry)

The Imposter

Jasmine came over half an hour after I called her. Vergil and Dante were prepared to leave, and were just waiting for Jasmine to arrive. She knocked, and Vergil let her in.

"Welcome," I said sarcastically.

"I am Vergil, and that is Dante."

Dante kind of waved, and Jasmine waved back.

"I'm sorry that we are not staying long, but we have some... Important business to attend to."

Jasmine nodded, "It's okay. I'll be here when you get back."

Vergil nodded, turning to Dante, "Let's go."

They hurried to the door, locking it behind them.

Jasmine shrugged, "So what do you want to do?"

"Wanna watch Chucky?"

A smile spread across her face, "You read me well."

I ran down to my room, grabbing the combo pack. "Which one? I've got Childs Play, Childs Play 2, Bride of Chucky, and Seed of Chucky."

"Start with the first one."

I popped the disc into the X-box 360 and pressed play.

Jasmine sat next to me on the couch, staring at the 50 inch TV. The movie started and we curled up on the couch, covering ourselves up with blankets. Jasmine seemed on edge, though the movie hadn't even started yet.

"So when are they coming back?"

I shrugged, "I don't know. I guess it depends on how much trouble they run into any problems."

"And trouble would be..."

"Uh, I don't know. People trying to stop them?" I wasn't about to reveal their story to her even though she was my best friend. 

She nodded, turning her attention back to the TV screen. The movie started, and we relaxed... Kind of.

*                    *                     *

"I've gotta run to my room quick. I'll be right back."

I left Jasmine there on the couch, watching the second movie. I ran to my room, grabbing Lothaire from my bed and clambering back up the stairs.

As I reached the last step, Vergil walked in the door.

"Oh hey Vergil. Where's Dante?"

"Dante? Oh, uh, he went back to his house."

I nodded, "So I take it you were successful then?"

"What? Oh yeah, we were. Sorry, I uh, just have a lot on my mind."

"Oh. Do you care to share them to me?"

"Uh, no, I'd rather not."

I nodded, "I understand."

He smiled, motioning for me to join him by the door. I did so.

"What is it?"

And then I looked into his eyes. They were blood red. He grabbed my shoulders as I tried to jerk away.

"You're not Vergil!" I exclaimed.

"Suprise."

He grabbed me and traced away.

*          *         *

He traced me to some large tower. I was in a room. A large room. There was a huge chair and table in frong of a moving picture. It was red and it swirled.

Mundus stood on the other side of the table.

"Thank you Adam."

"Vergil" standing next to me transformed into a tall, red eyed vampire. He nodded, tracing away.

I stood there, frozen. I didn't move as he stared me down. I didn't make a noise as he walked towards me.

"Aww poor little mortal, are you scared?"

I meant to answer, but no sound came from my mouth. He reached out placing his hand on my cheek. I jerked away, suddenly feeling braver.

"Where's Kat?!"

"You just missed them. It all was planned. I take the Nephilim's attention away, then I can kidnap you."

"But- but I thought they already defeated you. Why did you resettle here again?"

He smiled, "Because I hace reinforced all of my security systems. I now have total control."
