Ok this is my first submission to this site. Depending on how many people like this I'll decide if I'll continue with this story or scrap it all together. This story is a combination of both Namco and Capcom universes so if anyone wants to see the characters they love let me know. Enjoy!!!

Leon entered the small shop. As he stepped in, he looked around at the morbid collection scattered along the walls. Demonic head figures, tattered news clippings yellowed from age. The floor lightly cracked as he step, buckled as if it were about to give way at any moment. "One hell of a front for a mercenary." Leon flashed his light on the giant sword that was hung on the wall "Not very bright if he shows off his weapons."
"And you're not very bright breaking into my shop." Leon spun around drawing his weapon, shining his flashlight on the intruders face. "Breaking and entering and pulling a weapon on the owner? Ha! Even if you are a cop you're not a very smart one." The man lifted his hand towards his face, a loud crack echoed in the small shop. "Freeze or I will…" Bright lights flooded the room, "Ah, son of a…" Leon backed up as his eyes adjusted to the blinding lights. "I know who you are, Dante. You're a merc, a gun for hire!" Dante raised his hand to his face taking another bite of the crunchy candy bar. Leon's eyes began to see the man in the long blood red trench coat and silver hair. "That crack was from the candy bar? Glad it wasn't a gun at least." Leon though to himself.
"So what do you want?" Dante took the last bite of his candy bar before tossing the wrapper to the side. Leon kept his laser site on Dante, the red dot remained focused directly in between his eyes. "Your last employer, he was a member of the Umbrella Corporation, Albert Wesker."
Dante went cross-eyed, trying to see the laser dot hovering on his forehead. He poked and scratched at it, as if he could just pick it or peel it off. "Look, I don't know what you're talking about. I have bigger things to deal with. I ain't got time to play cops and robbers." Leon tighten his grip on the gun. "I'm afraid I've got to take you down Dante." Dante smirked "Take me down? Sorry boyscout, I'm way outta your league." Dante slowly drew out Ivory as Leon dropped to one knee. "Freeze!" Leon yelled, keeping his sights on Dante's head Leon reached behind his jacket pulling the pin off a flash grenade. Dante's ear wiggled slightly, he heard the pin and shifted his foot, as he got ready to draw out Ebony. "Ok boyscout," Dante said smiling "Let's get this party started!"
Leon tossed the flash grenade at Dante's face. Dante whipped it away with his gun causing it to detonate. The bright flash filled the room, all sounds replaced by a loud ringing noise. The only sense that was being felt was the vibration of both combatants' guns as they fired blindly at one another, the heat of lead nearly missing their faces reminding them they were still alive. Leon ran until he slammed hard into a wooden surface. "Damn!" he heard the faint cracks of gunfire as the effects of the grenade were fading away. Leon quickly felt the wood recognizing it was a desk. He jumped over and took cover behind reloading his gun and drawing his knife. Slowly he peaked over the desk counter and gasped. "What? Where did he go?" Leon though to himself. Suddenly he felt the cold barrel of a gun, a shotgun to be exact. "How the hell did he get behind me?" Dante laughed "Aww, be careful you don't wanna poke your eye out."
Leon rose slowly, a bead of sweat trickling down his face. "Anything you wanna say before I take you out?" Dante snapped. "Yea," Leon said, "just wanna say…" Leon spun around twisting Dantes arm back, unloading the shells from the shotgun. Dante held his neck back as Leon's knife tip poked at his Adams Apple. "Never bring a gun to a knife fight." Leon slammed Dante against the wall shaking everything hanging from it. "What did Wesker have you do?" Dante sighed, "Your still going on about that? Well let me get my 'knife' so we can dance." Dante stepped down hard on Leon's foot, following an elbow to the stomach causing him to prick Dante's neck. Dante back flipped kicking the sword out of its stand in the process. Dante landed behind Leon shoving him into the wall causing him to bounce of the wall. Dante followed up by grabbing Leon by his coat collar and threw him out the front window of the store, shattering glass onto the street. Dante brushed off his shoulders and caught his sword, smiling.
"Damn it is just my night." Leon mumbled as he slowly rose up from the glass with three noticeable cuts on his face dripping blood, a busted lip, now shredded jacket, and a headache no aspirin would have the courage to try to calm. Dante scratched the back of his neck and chuckled. "You know what, I can honestly say I'm impressed. Figured the beating you just took along with breaking my window would be enough. You would've gotten a merit badge and made master proud for sure." Dante mockingly saluted to Leon "Scouts Honor!" Leon flipped into the room and attacked Dante. Dante avoided the slices from Leon's knife and attacked back. Now Leon was on the defensive, the huge sword barely missing Leon as he backed up closer to the wall. "This guy is pretty fast" Dante though to himself. Dante spun around missing Leon leaving himself wide open. Leon jumped at Dante, wrapping his arms around him and suplexed the half demon, driving his head into the floor. Dante's body slumped and lay emotionless as Leon struggled to stand.
"Scouts Honor, bitch" Leon said frustrated. Leon slumped and grabbed his side as he made his way to the door. "Crack!" Leon slowly turned around. "What the… you can't be alive, nobody could've survived that!" Dante pulled his head out from the floor and cracked his neck back into place. He dusted off his head, pieces of wood flying out of his hair "Now I'm mad." Dante glided across the floor towards Leon crashing his foot into Leon's stomach. Leon spat out blood as Dante continued his assault punching him three times, then an uppercut, grabbed him and violently threw Leon into the desk breaking it in half. Dante grabbed his sword tightly and moved towards Leon "Well boyscout its time I end this." At that moment, Leon threw a knife at Dante. "Is he serious?" Dante though to himself, as he shifted his foot forward to catch it. However, his foot slipped and Dante lost balance. "What the hell?" Dante's eye caught sight of the wrapper to the candy bar he carelessly tossed to the side. He was not going to be able to move in time to avoid the knife at this point. "Crap" The knife pierced Dante's neck entering right into his throat and fell down to the ground.
Leon was shocked, he did not expect Dante to be caught by his knife. He rushed over to Dante's body and pulled out his radio. "This is Leon S. Kennedy, need medical assistance at location named Devil May Cry, direction are ack!" Leon was cut off as Dante's hand shoot up and began to squeeze Leon's neck. "You lucky bastard," Dante said his voice sounded like he was gargling water. Dante's throat was full of blood as he pulled out the knife and tossed it to the side and spit out the blood from his mouth. "For catching me like that here is what I'll tell yaw." Dante dropped Leon, as Leon gasped for air. "I wasn't hired by any Albert Wesker, but I was approached by a Heihachi. I turned him down, and then a detective came in and asks me some questions about Heihachi. Also unlike you, she was hot." Dante smirked at Leon as he grabbed his sword and guns. "Do me a favor and stay alive boyscout. I think your one of the good guys." Dante left the store and locked the front door shaking his head at the broken glass all over the street.
Leon stood up slowly dazed and confused. "Heihachi?" Leon clutched his side and grinded his teeth. He pulled out his radio and sighed. "Jill, the situation has become complicated."
