In My Time of Dying

by Red Nix

As Lady saw her life passing her by, she can't help but close her eyes.

Disclaimer: I do not own Devil May Cry. Because if I do, Vergil would still be alive.

-In My Time of Dying-

Slash.

Blood splattered on the ground. A few milliseconds later, a lifeless body of a demon fell.

Bang.

Another dark demon fell helplessly on the ground. With a bullet from her 9 mm pistol, the demon's skull broke. And then, another amount of blood came splatting.

Boom.

A concrete wall collapsed as another two corpses of demon went flying through the air. With her Kalina Ann, everything is possible.

Not minding the smell of blood everywhere, Lady breathed raggedly. As she holsters her pistol, she wiped the few amount of sweats mounting on her forehead. She can feel her reaction time became sluggish.

And then suddenly the hairs on her nape pricked.

Before she knew it, something slashed against her waist.

Her mismatched irises snapped open. And then, a shocking spell of pain jolted over her.

On her peripheral vision, she can see another dark demon grinning slyly on her.

She tried to jerk her hand to reach for any weapon. Her pistol, her knife, her Kalina Ann—everything!

But she came up with one realization.

She's paralyzed.

Oh shit.

She fell flat on her back, facing the now gray sky. By then, she could almost see the sunny smile of her mother, welcoming her in her arms. Oh, how she longed to be there.

For a moment, she saw her life flashed before her eyes.

Just like a flashback, memories of Arkham's—no, her father's death came crashing through.

"You're sweet… Just like your mother…"

She thought she'll never cry if she ever kills her father. But she did anyway.

But no, this is her time of dying, she will not cry.

She smiled bitterly as she saw the demon walked towards her.

"Bring it on…"

She whispered under her breath. She tried to shut her eyes, waiting for something hard to hit her.

But before she closed her eyes, she saw something red blocked her vision of the monster.

Before everything went dark, she suddenly felt safe.

The man in red bent towards the wounded Lady, his silver hair almost touching her cheek.

"Tsk. Lady, didn't I tell you? That it would be a waste if you'll just become a stain?"

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

Fin.

This scene entered my mind while I'm listening to Three Days Grace's 'Time of Dying.' How 'bout listening to it?
