Chapter 1: "There will be to Hell to pay!"
Dante stared in open-mouthed horror at the sight of his office. The windows were smashed and the door looked like a mastodon had been using it for a trampoline. But what was worse was the strong scent of blood, strangely there were two people.
Dante allowed himself a brief thought, 'Trish must be okay, she must have been attacked and fought off the attacker,' knowing full well that that couldn't be what had happened.
Dante walked to the back of the office, only briefly noticing that all his other weapons (he always carries Alastor and Ivory/Ebony) were missing, like someone had been trying to take his ability to fight. As he got closer to the door to his and Trish's privet quarters, the smell of blood got so strong he nearly fainted, not because of the amount of blood, but because the blood smelled like both Trish and demon in one blood.
He found the door almost hanging off its hinges.
'Not good,' he thought, 'not good at all.'
He stepped into the room and nearly retched at the sight. Trish was lying on the bed, well most of her was. Her brain was splattered over a five foot circle of gore behind the head-board, one arm draped of the side off the bed, her face was marred only by the look of horror on her face and the small hole above and between the eyes. Her stomach had been slashed violently and...I won't describe it, suffice to say that her legs seemed to have taken a walk in opposite directions without her body's consent.
The worst though was the small demon triggered™ child on the floor, he looked just like Dante, and it didn't take long for Dante to figure out what had happened. There was little evidence he could trace, but he still took the time to check if there was anything.
Right there embedded in his child's head was a coin, Dante recognized the symbol of the local chapter of the Castle Club, better known to some as the Hellfire Club.
'Careless' Dante thought scornfully 'or maybe the ones who did this want to be found...'
Well it didn't matter to Dante, he was going to find out who did this, 'and then,' he thought ''There will be Hell to pay!"
