Demons can have no family.
Because of this, Legendary Dark Knight Sparda and his wife perished for their 'sin', and left Dante and Vergil in the world. The sons of Sparda fought, and in the end, only one was left standing.
But could that be the end of the Sparda family?
Vergil Sparda's only goal in life is to search for a demon named Phantom, to avenge his loved ones. Years ago, a demon ruined his family, and two decades down the road, Vergil Sparda has yet to put an end to Phantom. He views it as a weakness, but it is a weakness he cannot remove, or move past. It is a pain of a father who had lost his child, a husband who has lost his wife. There is nothing that Dante can do for his brother either, except to stay by Vergil's side, providing the only bit of family left.
Vicious Hunter Victor also hunts Phantom, looking up to Vergil as an idol. A not-too-remarkable boy in Dante's view, Victor somehow finds himself teaming up with his idol to hunt down the demon who had ruined both their lives. But, as Victor begins to realize, there is more to Vergil Sparda than he thought initially.
There is also more than Victor's dead parents.
Because, Victor might just be The Devil's Son.
Friendships will be tested, brothers will be brought together and torn apart and a king will realize his limits. It all starts when the flames of the palace burn their brightest and an innocents blood is spilled.
PREQUEL to my other story, Devil May Cry: Restitution!
This is the first fan fiction I wrote and completed back in 2009. It was originally posted to my deviantART account on August 3rd, 2009 but I decided to migrate some of my work from over there to my profile here for a change in scenery. Nothing about the story has changed nor do I intend on changing anything about it. It's an old story that went on for a while and now it's done so the writing here compared to my newer works may appear 'lesser' but hey it was my first real story ;D We all start somewhere yeah?
I also need to mention that the original characters that appear in this story and it's sequel posted on my deviantART account are NOT, and I repeat, NOT fan characters I made for the Devil May Cry franchise. These characters are ones that I created for a book series I'm writing called di-móni-ak and are entirely copyrighted to me in every respect under the Canadian Copyright Law.
