Devil May Cry:

The Arcana Legacy, by Steel Angel

Yet "another" boring day in Devil Never Cry, the phone hadn't rang in ages. Trish and Dante were as bored as they could possibly be. The phone rang. "Devil Never Cry" said Trish "...no...no, I'm sorry...LISTEN LADY I ALREADY SAID I WONT BUY ANY OF YOUR "FAT FADERS"!!!DON'T EVER CALL AGAIN", with that, Trish slammed the phone.

Dante looked at hear "Whoa, slow down babe...chill..." "What do you mean "chill" we're just standing here, we havent done anything in ages, nobody in this god damn country has any problem with marionettes or sin scissiors or..." Her speech was stopped by a kiss from Dante. "Trish, not having problems in the world is good for the people, although its bad for us..." Trish rested her head on Dante's chest and sighed. He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her forehead. He picked her up and and sat down on his chair, they kissed once more and began making out...until the door opened, revealing a small boy, around 16, with blue-marine eyes. The boy coughed so that both Dante and Trish realised he was there. "May we help you?" Dante asked "I'm not here so that you can help only me, but mankind..." Trish raised her eyebrow "Why should we trust you, kid? We don't even know who you are...". The boy slowly inhaled and started "My name is Kiko, and I was given the ancient power of
the cups..." "What? What are cups?" interrupted Dante "Cups are a tarot group, related to the water and flowing of ages" Trish said. "Correct, Trish" said Kiko," but I need your help...badly...Mundus, emperor of the underworld found out about the presence of the four Arcana Sages, the Sage of cups, which is me, the Sage of Wands, the Sage of Swords and the Sage of Coins. Mundus wants to use our powers to do nothing but mischief, causing wars and enough hatred in the world so that he may rise again, this time, more powerful than ever..."

"Lemme get this straight " Dante started "There are sages, which have powers...and can destroy things and stuff, right? But whats the problem?! I mean, since your safe Mundus can't do anything....right?" "Wrong, if Mundus finds away to control the power of my Bretheren...all is lost..." "Wait" said Trish "Why can't you fight Mundus yourselves?" "You mean "myself", Trish" added Kiko" I was the only Sage who was awakened. I should make myself clear, the Sages have powers which can create joy, happiness, balance, wealth...everything...but, if the powers fall into wrong hands, they can be used to create pain, suffering...just about everything the Dark ones like..."

"Wait wait wait wait, why did you come to us in the first place?!" asked Dante

"Because I know you sealed Mundus once...and I know you can do it again...but we must find the Sages before Mundus does!" "Ok," Trish said "but how do we find the other Sages...and how on Earth did you know we sealed Mundus in the first place?!" shouted Trish pionting a gun to Kiko's head.

"Aqueras makun" was the only thing Kiko said before a strong spray of water appeared from his hend and threw Trish back. "I do hate it when I'm forced to resort to a violent behaviour...and I came across you, by reading the tarot...and if you two don't help me...the future can be easily predicted by these cards!" saying that, two cards appeared out of nowhere. One was the Devil, the other was Death, both of them upside down. " Ok ok, we take the job" said Dante while helping Trish up. "So where do we go now?" asked Trish "do you know where do we have to go?". "Yes, I do. To find the strenght within, you must retrace your steps,we'll go to Mallet Island...
