Summary: Dante and Lady meet again about a year or so after the incident with Arius and the Despair Embodied. Trish left earlier on and fell in love with another man named Jones and Lucia went back to the old island to protect it and stay with her mother in order to protect her as well. Dante and Lady's reunion is a rather happy, and amorous one.
They are eventually "wed" and have a daughter named Karil Ann Sparda. 12 years after her birth Dante goes on a mission never to return, thought dead by Lady and her daughter Karil. Years later on the night after Karil's 20th birthday she finds herself sitting on the desk of Devil May Cry that her father used to sit in, her mother is upstairs in the shower, and there is a figure standing outside of Devil May Cry.
This is where our story begins…

Chapter 1: Alec
Karil was sitting with her feet propped up on her father's old desk in the office of the Devil May Cry building. Her mother, who always said to be called Lady, was currently taking a shower after another mission she had just gotten back from.
She had just turned twenty the day before and her mother had given her the sword Rebellion. She said that her father wanted her to have it when she was old enough, now the sword hung on the wall where the Force-Edge once adorned, as well as the acclaimed " Space Pirate Girl" photo that had been taken down soon after Lady had gotten to Devil May Cry. The Devil May Cry building itself had not changed much over the years, merely different trophies on the walls as well as different guitars, drums, and amps with an awesome sound system running through the office. The old jukebox was still there and still had the large dent in it. Dante always used to say the damned thing didn't work, so damaging it didn't really have much of an affect on him.
Karil was sitting at her desk in a pair of Italian leather boots, tight red leather pants, a black tank top, with the pendant necklace her father had given her before leaving on his last mission. She had skin like milk and silver hair that cascaded down her past her shoulder blades. She had a pair of mismatched eyes, much like her mother.
She began to sense something amiss in the area and looked toward the door. Standing outside in the rain was someone in a torn and tattered cloak, this stranger was staring right at her. It seemed, once he had her attention he opened the doors to the office and strode in. His cloak was dripping water on the floor and his boots were making somewhat of a squeak because of the water on the soles. He stopped in front of her desk before taking off his hood.
He had red hair that seemed like fire and fell haphazardly in some areas over his face. He had somewhat of a tan complexion and, oddly enough, a pair of goldenamber eyes that seemed to reflect every bit of light in the room. The real freaky part about his eyes was the fact that instead of normal pupils they were wide slits, like a reptile. He stared down into her eyes before he began to speak.
" You are the daughter half-demon daughter of Dante and Lady Sparda. The granddaughter of the Legendary Dark Knight Sparda, right?" asked the stranger in a rich, deep voice.
" Yeah, but what's it to ya?" asked Karil somewhat cautiously. It wasn't everyday someone came into Devil May Cry wondering about your missing father.
" I am here to seek the help of either you or your father." Said the stranger.
" Well considering that my father has been missing for about 8 years, and I'm not helping someone I just met, then I guess you're just SOL." Said Karil
The stranger lowered his head and pinched the bridge of his nose before saying, " What if I said that it was in your greatest interest to hear me out, at least?"
" Sorry, ain't gonna happen."
Faster than the blink of an eye Karil had picked up one of her guns that was lying on her desk and had it pointed right in the stranger's face.
" Do we really need to go through something like this when we can simply sit down and have chat? I don't think I've done anything worthy of being shot in the head today." asked the stranger gaining a lopsided smile.
" He's right Karil, that sort of thing won't work on Alec." Said a new voice.
They both turned to see Lady standing there in a pair of black jeans, and in a red t-shirt that said ALL DEVIL written in Old English.
" Well, at least someone here has the ability to remember who I am." Said Alec still keeping the smile on his face.
" Hard to forget someone with those sort of eyes." Said Lady as she leaned against the hall doorframe.
" Wait, so you know this guy mom?" asked Karil who still had the gun to his head.
" Yeah. My father brought me here. That was about18 years ago. So you can see why the gun isn't really necessary." Said Alec
Karil only put the gun back down on the desk as she sat down in the chair once again. She had somewhat of a pouting expression on her face.
" I swear you remind me so much of Dante it's freakin' scary." Mumbled Alec to himself.
" So, what brings you here Alec?" asked Lady.
" Simple, there is a new evil out there that is more powerful than Mundus." Said Alec
" What do you mean ' more powerful than Mundus'?" asked Karil
"Glad you're finally going to hear me out." Said Alec before beginning.
