With That out of the way, Hello All of Fanfiction. First ever Devil May Cry story but Hey, won't be my last hopefully.
It was a Semi-cold night in the city. A grown man wearing a long blue trench coat, long green scaled slacks, a deep green almost vest looking shirt with a handkerchief neatly tucked at the crest of the shirt, dark brown leather fingerless gloves. in his right hand a katana and in his left hand, a boys hand. the boy looked to be not much older than 5 years old. The boys hair was silver like the man holding his hand, the boys other arm was that of a demonic one being red and blue with elongated fingers, he wore a small red vest with a black long sleeved shirt on underneath it.
"Stay close Nero," the older man said keeping him close.
"Yes Dad," Nero obeyed, they soon reached a building with a neon light display above reading 'Devil May Cry'.
"Step lively Nero.. we may not be staying long," the father said as he cautiously approached the front steps and took in a deep sigh only to be copied by his son seconds later. He opened the front door and revealed another man at a desk counting the money he had, without looking he spoke.
"We're closed right now," The two still walked in.
"Even to family.." The father said as the door closed behind the two and they walked to that desk. The man at the desk looked up from the money.
"Come to say hello or do you need me for something Vergil, not that i'd except," the man smirked looking at his brother.
"As embarrassing as it is to ask this I wish to live here with you, my son and me have nowhere to go.." Vergil responded after letting his son wave hello to his uncle. The brother raised an eyebrow but still sat down, he took a big sigh and signaled his brother to look behind the desk with his eyes burning into him to keep quiet. When Vergil and Nero looked behind the desk they saw a small basket, and inside that basket was a baby, a new born.
"I already have enough on my plate Vergil, I barely know how to take care of myself let alone a baby girl, can't exactly have someone I know i'll get into some kind of trouble with in my house. Like Mom told us before having a baby is the biggest responsibility ever." The brother explained, Vergil was slightly understanding but it still didn't stop him from continuously asking his brother.
"Please Dante, I can try and help with her as much as I can maybe I can even help to raise her with you." Dante's eyes where filled with both sadness and worry. As the two continued to talk Nero grew closer to the baby not knowing it was waking up from a nap. The newborns grey blue eyes looked around and was searching for her father and caught hold of a new face, Nero's face. She continued to stare into his eyes both of them where locked and then Nero smiled which caused the baby to start too giggle, alarming her father that she was awake, yet reassuring him she was happy. When Dante looked over he saw his baby girl laughing at Nero who was also laughing. Then with a heavy sigh.
"You pay half the costs of this place and buy your own clothes and furniture. And you help take care of your son AND my daughter. Got it?" Dante said looking his brother deep into his eyes.
"I shall do my best," Vergil nodded to his brother and after that Dante picked up his daughters basket and carried her upstairs.
"You start helping out tomorrow, couch is open for you two, I'll come back down with some blankets once i put her in her crib," Dante then talked to his baby in a very goofy voice, loving her laugh as he dissapeared upstairs.
-Devil May Cry-
Months later Dante and Vergil where scrambling around the whole upstairs and downstairs, Vergil seemed to be a lot calmer than Dante was but at the same time it wasn't his fault that his daughter managed to crawl away from either of their vision. Nero kept looking up at the ceiling as he was walking towards the kitchen.
"Nero! Have you seen your cousin?!" Dante said still in fatherly panic.
"Yeah, she's on the ceiling bar." Nero said pointing up towards the ceiling, Dante and Vergil looked up and saw that the baby had two wings. While Dante knew she's had wings he had no idea that she could use them to fly all the way up to the ceiling.
"Ok, did not know she could fly," Dante said calming down, he held out his arms and his daughter flew down into his arms. "Now Rosey... say Daddy," He only got baby coos from her. Vergil walked over with a glint of mischief in his eyes.
"Say Dummy," Vergil said curtly in an attempt to irritate his younger brother, It only backfired on him.
"Say Asshole," Dante smirked right back at him.
"Ve-Ve" Rosey cooed, her father then started shaking trying very hard to contain his laughter. Vergil on the other hand was very much so less than pleased and it didn't help his own son was laughing at that. She then flew over to Vergil, he realized that wasn't a response, she saw him and wanted to be held by her uncle. He caught her and she fell asleep in his arms.
"Looks like I'm her favorite Dante," Vergil said with a smug grin upon his face. Dante only put his arms down and smirked admitting defeat.
"That and from what I read she's supposed to have 5 naps a day at this age... mind watching those two, I really need to get out of the house. Lady's pointed out a job I can take so if I plan on taking care of my daughter I-"
"Say no more. Go take the job." Vergil said as he turned towards Rosey's room to put her down for a few hours. Dante nodded and got on his large red coat, taking Rebellion along with Ebony and Ivory he left the house.
