"Virgil! Virgil you might want to come and take a look at this," the woman called as she leaned over the body of she found.
"What is it, Kat?" Virgil asks making his way to the door.
Virgil glances down at the form of an unconscious woman. She was completely naked laying flat on her stomach as if she had fallen from the sky. He glances to the left and right looking for any signs of suspicious activity.
"Is she breathing?" He asks.
Kat leans down feeling her neck for a pulse and nods. He sighs and pulls his jacket off and wraps it around the woman on the ground and lifts her up; bringing her inside.
"Close the door and come with me," he states.
"Do you think is a trap from the demons?" She asks.
"No, they would have been around the building and surrounded us as soon as we picked her up, this is something else. How did you find her?" Virgil replied.
"I heard a noise outside, but the cameras weren't picking anything up, so I investigated," she replied.
"That was foolish of you, you should have had someone else from the order do it, what if it had been a trap?" He replied.
"Sorry," she bowed her head.
Virgil entered what of an infirmary they had and laid the woman on the bed. Kat grabbed gown and blankets to cover her. He removed his jacket and exited heading towards his quarters.
"What do we have here?" The doctor asked.
"I don't know, I found her outside unconscious, Virgil brought her here,"
"Okay, I'll run some tests and let you know what the outcome is," he replied.
Kat walked out and went to her room, something about the woman felt different to her. She had a similar aura to Virgil, but there was a slight purity to it. The doctor drew blood and put it in a machine, as he walked back to the woman to finish his assessment she sat up and looked at him. A shield formed around her and threw the doctor against the far wall. Within moments Virgil was in the infirmary investigating the noise. What he saw caused a smirk form on his face. The doctor was sitting there in staring in horror as the woman sat with a shield formed around her still.
"I see you're awake," Virgil said looking to the woman.
She looked over at him and stared at him.
"You are safe you can relax," he continued.
"Where am I?" She asked quietly.
"This is The Order, we found you outside. What is your name?" He replied.
"Skyla," she replied quickly.
"Where are you from?" He continued.
She shook her head.
"It's okay, we're not going to hurt you," he told her.
She dropped her shield, Virgil looked over to the doctor and nodded. The machine dinged alerting her blood test were ready. The doctor cautiously walked towards the device grabs the results. He looked up at Virgil and frowned. Virgil walked over and read them over and nodded.
"That's what I suspected. She's is safer here with us. I'll show her to her room, have Kat find her some clothes, looks like we have some training to do," Virgil spoke aloud.
He walked towards the door and motioned for her to follow. Once she was settled and had decent attire, he went to his study. After a few hours, Kat stopped by.
"What did you find out, you seemed very pleased," Kat asked.
"She's a Fallen Angel, I think she will be beneficial for when we find Dante," he responded.
"So what do we do until then?" She asked.
"Train her, I think I know where we can find him. But I want her to be ready. We will send her undercover and watch him," he replied smiling.
"So we are going to use her," Kat asked disgustedly.
"No, we are going to use her to our benefit," he replied nonchalantly.
"I don't see how that's any different from what I said," she glared at him.
Two weeks passed, Skyla caught on well to her fighting training. Virgil connection had found where Dante was hanging out at 'Devil's Dalliance,' and Skyla was supposed to be going undercover to watch him as a shot girl. She dressed in her uniform if that is what you could call it. It consisted of a black bra, underwear with black fishnet underneath, heels, and black angel wings. She stared at Kat and Virgil nervously. She could tell that Kat sympathized with her.
"Don't worry you look great, just serve drinks and keep an eye on him. We will make our move when we need to," Virgil replied monotoned.
Skyla nodded and headed in. The music was loud, and the lights were disorienting. She went to the bar and found the bartender.
"You the new girl?" He asked.
She nodded, he loaded up her tray with shots.
"He's already here, make sure you seem flirty but don't get pulled in. Too many of our girls have been fired because of him," he said distastefully.
She nodded and walked into the floor. She walked out, she didn't have to put much effort into selling the drinks. Most of her efforts were watching Dante, he made eye contact with her a couple of times and gave her a smile that made squeeze thighs a little tighter each time. After that she spent the rest of her night avoiding him, she'd still watch him out of the corner of her eye, but she made sure she kept her distance.
Right before closing, he left with some random girl, at the end of the night she collected her earnings and slipped out the back to meet Virgil and Kat in the car. She filled them.
A few weeks of this passed, she would watch him, sell drinks, watch him leave with one to two girls and tell Virgil all about it. Tonight was different, everyone was acting strangely. The music was different, and so was the lighting. The bartender and dancers were even different. Skyla went into the bathroom and texted Kat about what was going on.
'Get out of there, Virgil is on his way to get you. We are going to come up with a new plan.' Kat replied.
Skyla slipped out of the backand waited for Virgil.
The next morning Kat and Skyla walked to Dante's trailer. They were quiet, trying not to bring attention to themselves. Kat stopped just outside the trailer and looked around nervously.
"Dante! You have to get out there! You are in danger!" Kat yelled.
A moment later the door swings open and Dante's naked form stands there.
"What are you talking about?" He asks shielding his face from the sun.
Skyla adverts her eyes a blush crossing her face, Kat seems unfazed by him.
"You were careless, you left a trail. Now he's on to you!" Kat pleaded with him.
"What are you talking about? Who is on to me?" Dante asks.
"Hunter Demon," Skyla replied.
Dante looks to Skyla and smirks noticing the blush still on her face, but he his attention is adverted when something starts appearing out of the water yelling his name.
"It's too late, you're going to have to fight your way out," Kat says.
He quickly dives inside as a claw shoots towards them causing both girls to leap opposite of each other. Dante quickly pulls on his clothes and jumps out the window as the demon pulls the trailer his snatched towards the demon. Dante is pulled promptly into limbo.
"Shit back in Limbo…bad day for a hangover," Dante mutters to himself.
"Skyla, I'm sending you in with him…help him and me," Kat says squatting down with a spray can and paper with symbols.
Skyla appears beside him a moment later with a set of daggers.
"Just don't slow me down," he looks her up and down.
Skyla rolled her eyes and walked with her daggers facing down towards the stygian that had appeared. Dante watched her curiously as she slashed at one the demons in an X fashion causing it to fall but not killing it. She tossed the blade to the left as one tried to flank her from the left. Using the other dagger slammed down into the demon's chest. He quickly joined making quick work of the other stygian; she looked over at him as she sheathed her blades.
"I couldn't let you have all the fun," he smirked at her wryly.
Skyla shook her head at his flirtatious advances and walked further towards the meeting pointing with Kat.
"Skyla, this way," she heard Kat's voice from the real world.
As they attempted to cross the bridge the Hunter Demon threw his claw out and grabbed the bridge and attempted to pull out, they ran dashed Skyla quickly ran, Dante, followed but jumped up grabbing the guns that he noticed were hanging above them.
"Ebony. Ivory. I missed you girls," Dante said looking between his guns.
He turned to shoot at the Hunter Demon, Skyla had her back facing the other way noticing another horde of demons had appeared.
"Dante you can sweet talk your weapons later, right now we have demons that are trying to kill us," Skyla said getting ready for the battle in front of her.
"Dante, he's bulletproof let's worry about what's ahead," Skyla said when she noticed he was still firing at the Hunter Demon.
Dante spun towards the demons that were in front of them and started firing.
"Take the ground ones, I got the ones in the air," Dante says as he starts firing at the Bathos.
With little effort, they had taken out the horde. Kat ran towards them grabbing their attention. Dante quickly has his guns aimed at Kat.
"Dante! Don't shoot my name is Kat!" She said shrinking away with her hands up.
Skyla quickly steps in between Kat and Dante, glaring at him.
"Listen to her, she sent me in, and I've helped you this far," Skyla said putting her daggers away showing him she was no threat.
"She is still currently in the real world," she continued catching his eye shielding Kat.
"Why can I see her clearly?" Dante asks.
"I am a medium- a psychic – I can phase into limbo and communicate with you," Kat says with a plea in her voice.
Dante looks to Skyla for confirmation, and she nods.
"She can see us, she can speak to us, but she's not here," she tells him.
Dante aims the guns around Skyla and at Kat's head.
"…and If I pull the trigger?" he asks her sneering.
"I die," Kat replies.
"She is risking her life for us, she wants to help," Skyla says sighing.
"I don't need your help," Dante replies dropping his gun.
"The Hunter dragged you into limbo, I can get you out," Kate replies.
"I've been down here before; I know how to get out. You fight whatever shit sucking demon dragged you in here," Dante snarls.
"Kat we're wasting our time," Skyla said turning to walk off.
"He doesn't want to fight the Hunter, he's not a regular demon," Kat said looking between the two.
Skyla stares at the floor and sighs; she turns towards Dante and motions for him to follow.
"After you," She tells him.
Another horde appeared in front of Dante, he automatically pulled out Rebellion and started hacking away at the demons; Skyla followed quickly behind him with her daggers slashing at demons that got in her way. The demons are quickly dispatched, and Skyla catches Kat slipping into the fun house to help lead them away from the Hunter Demon.
"How'd you meet her?" Dante asked when they stopped for a moment for a rest.
"She found me outside, our boss helped me get patched up and keep me safe from the demons," Skyla said pushing herself from the wall.
Skyla walked towards the exit, with him following quickly behind her. The Hunter demon busted through the wall and attempted to attack Dante. His quick reflexes had him pulling Rebellion out and blocking the Hunter and tossing him through the next wall.
"Shit! Dante, are you okay?" Skyla called.
Dante appeared a moment with a smug grin and shrugged, she turned on her heel and walked towards the exit. At the doorway, Kat appeared and told them to quickly follow her, but the Hunter Demon had other plans. Kat pulls out what looks like a Molotov and tosses the Hunter Demon's head and weakens it for them. Dante and Skyla quickly go to work on the demon to take it down. It takes a lot of strength, but they finally take him down. Skyla looks to Dante before she walks off towards where Kat was, making sure she is safe.
Kat pulls up next to Dante in a car with the window down and Skyla in the back.
"Are you okay Dante?" Kat asked him.
"How do you know my name?" Dante asked.
"Our boss knows, he wants to meet you. Please, we helped you back there," Kat replied.
Dante turns towards the car and looks at Skyla; she looks away from him and out the window.
"I didn't ask for your help," Dante repeats from earlier.
A cop car speeds by them with its sirens on, Dante gets into the passenger seat and signals for Kat to drive.
"We know all about you Dante. We're with an organization called the order. Heard of it?" Kat starts talking.
"Something to do with that masked freak?" Dante replied.
Skyla snorts at his remark and rolls her eyes at him; Dante looks back her with a smug smirk.
"Something funny?" he asks her.
"That's our boss," Kat replied.
"Wonderful. Can't wait." Dante replies turning back to look at the road.
