I don't have much to say other then enjoy. I'll explain more at the end.
Chapter One: Umbran Devil
Eons ago, creation was once filled in a cycle of darkness within the void. Until one day a hand reached out and took hold of that void, pulling open a light within the void, creating a new world: Life. However as that hand reached out to claim this at it and being the Creator so did another: A darker being of pure evil, it pulled on the void and created something in the opposite of the Creator and called it his home: Hell.
The cosmic forces clashed and in their struggle destroyed creation itself. Seeing what they had caused both the cosmic entities came to an understanding and agreement: Both would rule over one realm while that they created while the other would be checked by an Overseer. So they recreated the realms but split it into three: A trinity of realities of separate ends and differences: A golden light of Heaven, ruled by the Creator of the three realms. The dark realm of Hell ruled by the Serpent King, only rival of the Creator. And finally the realm in between, a realm of constant unbalance of chaos, ruled by the God of Chaos the Overseer. These would be known as the Trinity of Realities.
As time went on the Creator created its subjects to bow only to him: The Angels of Paradiso. While the Serpent ruled over Hell it bides it time waiting for the chance for an opening to invade and take its revenge. Meanwhile the Creator hid his newest creation away from the eyes of the Overseer and the Serpent and created a new race: Humans. The first two were claimed as Adam and Eve, first mortals to walk the lands of Eden, a world made by the Creator. However this did not go unnoticed by the Serpent, who would take his revenge on the Creator and did it on the mortals. Taking the form of a snake the Serpent tricked Eve in taking an apple from the tree, the one thing the Creator forbid them from taking. In doing so Eve created Sin: The curse upon creation that would affect all life.
Meanwhile above the plains of Heaven, the Creator eldest son the Morningstar, saw what its father has done and grew jealous. In his rage he organized a rebellion against his father, only to be smited and casted out of Heaven along with his followers: Birthing the first of the Fallen Angels. The Serpent welcomed the Fallen one with opened arms into Hell, dubbing him the Sin of Pride and ruler of the Second Circle of Hell. Seeing the Fallen Angels the Serpent realized it could raise its own army and in doing so created the denizens of Hell: The Demons of Inferno. Designed by the Seven Sins of Creation: Seven Fallen Angels that fell from grace based on their sin: Pride, Wrath, Greed, Lust, Gluttony, Sloth, and Envy. The armies of Hell were ruled by the Serpent King who ruled all with its followers the Seven Deadly Sins.
Meanwhile in the realm of chaos, the Overseer watched with eyes that could create worlds as humanity expanded...but did not change. They barely had much functions since the Creator ignored them in favor of his more evolved Angels. So the Overseer made the choice of giving the realm of Chaos, all of the living itself, free will be offering the Eyes of the World. Mortal life was given free will across all planets, especially on Earth by becoming their own being. However by doing this the Overseer was split in two: The Sovereign one, and the Prophetic One. As humankind flourished, a dark evil continued to grow below far faster then even Light itself.
The Serpent looked upon the light and chaos and saw how its brother broke the peace, on how the Overseer was gone and the Realm of Chaos was unobserved even by the Creator himself. It turned to its kind and said 'This world was once one, why not make it again?' and so came a war to end all wars: The Endless War. The demons of Inferno and Angels of Paradiso battled over the Chaos Realm, humanity burned in their struggle to weak to fight. However amidst all that chaos, all the death, one soul stood amongst them with sorrow in his eyes. A demon. A legendary warrior born from the Circle of Pride as one of the most powerful warriors in Hell, only under the Sin of Pride, Wrath, and the Serpent. His name was feared by all demons and even the Angels, known as the Legendary Dark Knight.
Sparda.
The demon walked across the scorching earth of Eden, ignoring the death of his brothers and even mourning of the Angels. Until he came across a mortal who tried to stand against the forces of light and darkness: A woman. Her heart was virtuous but pride to cower in the sight of demons would cost her. However the Dark Knight felt something as this woman stood upon him waiting for her death, something no demon has ever felt: Love. The woman showed him the beauty of the Realm of Chaos and humankind despite its flaws. Sparda learned to love this woman and saw her courage, he gave her an offer to save her kind: Take a bond with him and become one, by doing so would get his powers and hold over his dominion. The woman took his offer and was bestowed the power of a devil but remained human. To the other mortals they only saw a Witch, despite all she had done to protect her kind, from the fear controlling them. A Witch that made a pact with a demon to control the same kind of creatures.
Eva, the first Umbran Witch was born.
Sparda and Eva fought against the forces of Hell along with the Angels, who only saw the disgusting alliance in this demon and mortal woman despite the actions the two will take. The Dark Knight and Umbran Witch fought against the hordes of Hell, taking down each Demon Knight, Lord, President, King, whatever stood in there way until they made it to the Sin of Pride itself, the Fallen Angel. It took the combined might of the Dark Knight, the Umbran Witch, and the Four Seraphs: the children of the Creator to defeat the Fallen Angel and cast the demons back into Hell. The Serpent cursed the name of Sparda as a traitor and vowed revenge as the Creator smites the Serpent, reducing him to ashes. Sparda saw that the Gates to Hell would open from now on as the only thing keeping them close was the Serpent, unless one could close them with a powerful curse. Making one final sacrifice Sparda used all his demonic powers to seal away the Gates of Hell, his sword losing its powers and disappearing from the arms of the Dark Knight. However in losing his demonic powers he lost his demon shell gaining the form of a human but with the blood of a demon. Eva, despite her pact with Sparda broken, loved the Demon turn human and made one final pact: To be together for the ends of days in each others arms. The Angels returned to Heaven, however despite what Sparda and Eva did the Angels only saw a mortal who made a pact with their sworn enemy, an act that was a sin in the eyes of their Creator. The demons saw a traitor who loved a human, and would swear revenge on them from now to all of time.
Sparda and Eva disappeared from the world, living together happily in peace. However the world around them changed, the legacy of Eva's Pact carried on with the a clan of women making pacts with demons: The Umbran Witches. The Witches will summon Angels and kill them for the demons and in return were granted power. The Angels answered this by creating a clan to counter the Witches with power of Paradiso: The Lumen Sages, who prayed to the Creator in his divine power and served only them. As this war between the light and darkness waged on, the mortals that survived would remember the Legend of the Dark Knight Sparda, but very soon thats all it would become: Legend, nothing but myth turned into dust of time.
(Sewers)
"Please... please no! Please let me go!" A young teen balled her eyes out as she hung upside down from this strange prison that held her legs. She was having the best night of her life partying with her friends, drinking, smoking, and having the time of her life. However the night changed when she met a handsome hunk that swoon her over that led into an alley way. Her night went upside down and the the hunk transformed into a gigantic fly. Now she was literally hung upside down in the sewers as several bugs floated around her, hissing as green saliva oozed down their beak like mouths.
"Keep squirming pretty one, I like when they squirm." Speaking of the fly, said fly was a head size bug that was actually a several creatures formed. The creatures stared at the girl as she hung from the sewers, waiting until it was time to eat. Two bugs within a tunnel watched as the others prepared to eat, knowing full well they would have to wait.
"They never leave anything but bones... I hate thee bones." A bug hissed as the big ones surrounded the girl. Both kept watching unaware of the sounds of footsteps as they crept closer to the two bugs.
"Me want some meat." The other one hissed as it started sniffing the air. Both were unaware as the entire of area was filled with the girls pleas and the constant draining of sewage water. They did not notice a massive figure standing behind them with its hands in their pockets before they lifted their boot.
"I smell thee meat... and something else."
"That is gonna be the lead between your brain, bugboy."
BANG!
BANG!
SPLAT!
The bugs within the water jumped at the sound of gunshot, the girl and the bugs looked up to see two dead bugs fall into the water with their heads gone. The bugs looked up to see a human, a male standing above them with its boot out, however the bugs saw that the back of the boot a black pistol: A Colt M1911 to be exact was mounted on it. The barrel was smoking and the smell of lead filled the entire room as the being put its foot down. Two of the drones flew towards the male spewing the green ooze, which the being flipped over them and planted its boots on the drone heads, seeing a silver version of the other mounted on the back of the other boot, before the heads were obliterated. Both weapons had the names 'Luce & Ombra' engraved on the side of the pistols. The being flipped onto the air and onto the wall, to the bugs surprise the mortal stuck to the wall with ease as it waved its hand in front of its face.
"Demons... even worse Beelzebub drones." The male muttered under his breath as he mentioned the name of the creatures. Beelzebub drones, a grunt level demon that were the denizens of the third circle of hell Gluttony. Taking the name of their master they always travel in hives as they take home in sewers or dark places with terrible smell. The small ones were the workers while bigger ones were warriors but the small ones had an acid like saliva that was very useful while the big ones were more armored. They never have a queen as they are usually born from sacs in the lower sect of the third circle, however there is a Queen she is simply in Hell.
The Beelzebub drones spat acid at the male, who easily sidestepped the creatures attack before pulling out two more Colt M1911 with a chamber of .45 ACP with the words 'Ebony & Ivory' engraved on the side of both guns, blowing their heads off. Two warriors flown towards the being but even their armor that was harder than steel was easily destroyed by the bullets as the being jumped into the air. He tackled the girl breaking her free from the prison and carrying her bridal style. He landed in one of the tunnels and laid the girl down, letting her get a good look at him. The male looked to be in his teenage years, about eighteen give or take, with pale white skin, and his face held no baby fat on it with a charming smile, his eyes deep blue like the sea. He was also quite the giant she took notice, being over seven eighth feet tall. He wore a black trench coat that reached to his black combat boots, he wore a a black shirt that hugged his chest reveal his six pack. His holsters hugged his side and on his back was a guitar case, a woman with red hair and black wings danced on the front of the case while surrounded by fire.
"You'll have to excuse me, my Dirty Flower." He said in a husky voice to soothe her fears, wiping away the smudge on her cheek. "But I must finish what I came here to do." Drake threw his fist back, knocking away an armored drone as it crashed into the water. He jumped back in as the girl laid there, and all that followed were gunshots and creatures roaring pain and agony. Later when Police were called to noise complaint and gunshots they went to the following location to surround a sewer lid. Finally they all saw something they never see: a teen with snow white hair wearing a black trench coat pulling himself out of the sewers, in his arm was a girl that some teens called about that when missing a few hours ago.
However the teen was completely covered in some green goo that seem to singe his clothes but unaffected the teen. They watched as the teen grabbed a blanket from an ambulance and put the girl down wrapping the blanket around her. He gave her a kiss on the head before standing up and walking away with his hands in his pockets. He ignored the voices of cops as they tried to stop him but were forced by the news reporters that stood in their way and the, before they attended the girl and see what had happened down there. By the time they would get down there they would find nothing but strange rocks and bloody gore. As the male continued to walk the distant flashing lights of the Ambulances and Police Cars blinked behind him. His front was shadowed from the light, however if one would look closely they would notice the shadow was not his. The shadow was the figure of a woman with butterfly like rings and antler like horns on both sides of the head. The woman moved in sync with the male, as if there were one and the same.
"Time to go home."
"And get my beauty sleep."
(Limbo City)
"Drake! RUN!"
"Vergil?"
"Kill him."
"AAAAGGGGHHHH!"
"Hello, Little Sparda."
"Wake up!"
"Drake?" Blue eyes shot open from his name being mentioned, sweat beading down his face. Drake stared at his gloved hand as he laid on his couch in his office... or room... he hasn't decided yet. He laid on his sofa with no shirt on and sweat beading down his head, a necklace with a red jewel at the end. He rubbed his eyes in irritation before he notice someone staring down at him, the light from the doorway making it hard to make heads or toes but Drake knew who it was.
"Ah, is a magician here to make all my problems disappear?" Drake mused as the woman above him rolled her eyes and flicked his forehead.
"More like a maid, one that is sick of cleaning up after you." A female said as she pulled open the curtains revealing her figure. It was a girl with a pale complexion and grey-green eyes, standing at 5'8. She wore a blue hoodie with an brown trench coat over it, hiding her short brown hair. She wore three necklaces, the longest having a silver pendant, and wore denim short-shorts, along with thick, knee-high socks and brown boots. She had a stencils tube slung over her back. She has several mystic-designed tattoos on her arms and forehead.
"Easy Kat I literally had three hours of sleeping after walking from one city to another." Drake groaned as he leaned forward and rested his head in his hand. "A man needs rest or the ladies will not like what they see." Drake chuckled as he felt an unseen force rub his cheek, and in return he flicked it away ignoring the playful hiss from the entity.
His home was a square-shaped room resembling a studio, with wooden floor and plaster walls with wooden panels on bottom part. Looking from the entrance, there is a set of stairs on the left, leading to a narrow landing. Underneath the landing is a white fridge, couple of couches and large speakers. On the left side is also a pool table. On the right side of the room, in the corner is an antique jukebox, and next to it a set of drums and an electric guitar. In front is a large, antique desk with chair, on it an old rotary phone. On each side of the desk are doors, left one are leading into the bathroom of bare design and with the a poster of a woman with an eye-patch on the door from inside, while the right one should lead into bedroom. On the wall directly behind the desk is a huge trophy of unknown origin and lupine appearances. On a coat hanger was Drake's black coat and shirt along with the guitar case and holster hanging next to them, his boots and guns hanging on the wall.
"Well did you at least take a shower when you got home, you smell like you've been in the sewers." Kat said as she sniffed Drake's hair, cringing in disgust.
"Give me a break, they were in the sewers, the sewers! You have any idea what that does to my hair? Besides, this is coming from the girl who once collected squirrel semen."
"... Touche." Kat said as she sat on Drake's desk. "Did you find the hive?"
"Found it, destroyed it, took care of it. Though Enzo owes me a few extra bucks, he did not say it was in the sewers." Drake said thinking how much the fat Italian was gonna pay him. Than again he wasn't expecting much from the lazy bum to pay him up and instead make him pay for whatever he broke next. He sat up from his couch and walked over to his fridge and opened it up to grab a frozen pepperoni pizza. He walked back over to his desk, planted himself in the chair and rested his feet on his desk as he ate his breakfast.
"What do I expect from my little magician? Two hundred? Five?" Drake asked looking at the backside of the magician. Granted Kat was also a Medium, a being who can see through Limbo and Purgatorio without magic and can see in a sense, ghost. Ever since she learned about demons she has taught herself with some dark arts as she realized she would be summoned into the demon world since they knew she could see them. So with the scroll of dark arts as well as helping teleport Drake into Limbo she is quite a formidable opponent for grunt level demons.
"Sorry Drake but I am out of money, kind of ran out last night when a demon burned my wallet when it tried to drag me into Hell." Kat said as she tapped on his desk. Drake groaned until he notice the Medium Magician innocent look she was giving him. While he would love to get mad at her but that look which isn't even the puppy dog look made him concede.
"Tell me at least I will get some money." Drake stated as he finished the last of his pizza.
"You'll have to talk to Enzo about that and the last time I heard about him he was drunk at the nearby stripper bar, before he was kicked out." Kat shuddered at the thought of seeing the Italian hanging around with the strippers. Drake popped his neck standing up from his seat and walking over to his coat, and flipped it over his shoulders.
Meanwhile Kat looked over her shoulder and grabbed the picture frame his desk. She looked at the picture that held a family of four on it, Drake's father, his brother, and his mother. His father had the same white hair combed back wearing a purple Victorian suit with an eye glass. On his back stood two giant bat like wings that stood out the most in the picture. Next to him was a beautiful blonde hair woman wearing a long black dress, black glasses over her eyes. The children were around the same age, Drake had long hair while the other had a more curved style hair, with Drake having a red necklace and the other a blue one that made them both look exactly the same. Kat smiled at the younger Drake but frowned at the thought of Drake's family. When they met he was never one to talk about his family, nor did he plan on finding any of them. All she knew was that Drake father was a Demon and his mother was human, but in a special kind of way.
"Do you ever think of finding them?" Kat asked as Drake finished putting on his jacket. Drake walked over to his desk and gently grabbed the picture, he set it back down before staring down at Kat. The two stared into each other's eyes while Drake smiled at his Medium friend, before scratching the back of his head.
"Even if I wanted too, I couldn't... not that I want too." Drake said as he walked over to his guitar case and hooked it over his shoulder, but his other hand instinctively reached for the necklace, gripping it tightly. "Now is there anything you want me to do? This place isn't going to pay for itself." Drake said clipping on his holsters, and putting on his boots. He took Luce and Ombra and flung them over his head, the guns twirled in the air before falling towards the ground. Drake kicked his right leg back, Luce connected to his right and Ombra with his left the guns clicking into place with a powerful magic. Kat hopped off his desk and walked over to her friend and patted his chest, the tall behemoth looking down at her.
"A couple days ago I have been sensing some strange magical property there. It seem some sort of portal was opened up a couple times before closing over and over again." Kat explained as she remembered meditating over this and receiving visions of what these anomalies are. It was a fiery aura that burned far brighter then any being on this planet...second only to Drake in terms of Magic.
"Demons?"
"I don't think so, but whatever it is it ain't human and seems to be your kind of area to deal with." Drake slipped his hands into his coat and opened the door to his office. He looked over his shoulder at the Medium leaving her one last smile, his shadow following his action but it seemed the eye within seemed to...blink?
"Look out for the place, I would like her to be in one place when I get back." Drake said as he walked away from his home and towards the location of this place called Gardenia... strange name.
(Gardenia)
Gardenia was a very... interesting place, it gave off an interesting aura than most cities he has been too. It took him about a day of walking and a few quick jumps, quite literally, to make it here. Drake was walking down the street looking around and admiring the view, walking past someone who seemed...out of color. Everyone around Drake looked to be like they were ghost, and that was only because he was not in the same dimension as them: Purgatorio. The realm between life and death where souls reside and be judged onto bring up to the Heavens or be dragged down in Hell. A dimension Drake uses to fight his enemies should they be to powerful and cause alarm in the middle of the day. He could touch and see but people would think he was simply the wind, or if one would look through a glass mirror or reflection they could see him. However he also had to focus his energy on detecting any strange or demonic activity here. Using his Energy Detection: A way of sensing the different energy signature from across the world on whether they were magical or supernatural. He could sensed the flow of energy throughout the entire city.
He could tell the difference between demonic, human, and other enemies energy: a human was grey, while a demon's was blood red. Drake was... unique in his own way. One that caused his families downfall years ago and cost him everything, and in return had to make deals to acquire the power to defeat his enemies. He notice some strange anomalies near the street area, with something heading towards it engulfed in fiery orange. It wasn't demonic however Drake knew it wasn't human by the aura and he had to check it out. Walking towards the area he saw quite a sight before him: Two girls talking to each other, while one seemed quite the bitch as commented by another unknown force Drake notice the other girl and took notice.
A sixteen year old girl was walking with on bike and what Drake assumed her pet Bunny inside the basket. This girl had long orange-red hair that stops just above her back, pale skin, and large cyan eyes. Her outfit is a teal crop top with dark blue trim revealing her pale skin belly, and pale yellow sleeves with blue slightly flared jeans that have stars on the bottom of the legs. Her shoes are yellow wedge-sandals with straps over the instep. Drake could not deny that this girl was quite cute, and didn't seem bitchy as the other girl. If there was one thing Drake hated it was three things: Demons, A certain Annoying group of flying pigeons, and bitchy people. As Drake calmly walked by he of course could hear the conversation from the two girls.
"Hey, Bloom! Vacationing in Gardenia this year?" The girl with glasses asked in a snarky tone. Drake looked at the girl that was Bloom, who seemed to be holding back her emotions, mainly anger.
"No, actually we'll be going away very soon." Bloom answered as the girl stood off the wall and placed her hands on her waist.
"The same old beach, huh?" The girl asked adjusting her glasses. "I'll send you a postcard from our vacation place." Drake could smell the bullshit off this one, and he hated it. Sure he didn't know the Bloom girl but no one shall disrespect a beautiful girl while Drake is around, no one. The sudden sound of metal scratching against metal made Drake and the girls look at a van. Two men were pulling out a purple scooter, unimpressed by it in Drake's opinion but he notice the hint of jealousy from the Bloom girl.
"Hey, careful with that scooter!" The girl said as the two man carefully set the scooter down, the girl turning to Bloom. "It's brand new you know? Of course you could never afford such a thing since you already got the kids bike." The girl giggled pointing at Bloom bike, sure it wasn't Drake's taste but that is no way to make fun of someone. Karma about to bite this bitch in the ass. Drake merely pulled out Ivory and fired two rounds, luckily in Purgatorio no one could hear the Gunshots in the real world but Drake could still affect them. Which is why the girl gasped in shock when she heard her scooter's tires explode and air leak out of the rubber.
The girl cried in shock while the men were very confused on why that happened. Bloom was as well but she was more happy then confused, surely an angel was watching over her as she silently giggled and hid her smile. Drake smiled as he holstered his gun and walked past Bloom, the girl looked around as if she felt someone touch her. Drake looked over his shoulder at her, before winking and walking off again. Some would call it being childish but it would be wrong to let this girl do whatever she wanted and still be a bitch, so a lesson was in order. He was never going to hit her, he would never do that to a lady, but his mother always taught him that some people needed to be taught a lesson. This of coursed mused a being within as it continued to laugh at the misfortune of mortals and of her pet's actions. Drake continued to walk until he came across the Cities park, he continued to search through the city but felt no energy signature, as it had disappeared...for now.
"Hmm maybe if I wait it will come to me." Drake thought. After all he hadn't had a day of sleep and would very much like to have one so he can regain his energy... not that he doesn't have a powerful stamina he just likes to sleep. So walking over to a nearby tree he put his guitar case and belt down and laid down on the tree, closing his eyes and resting. As he slept he of course could not stop his body from slipping back into the real world because if he didn't do it himself someone else will. As he continued to sleep his shadow started to revert back to being him, while another shadow appeared above him from the tree.
"Sleep my Little Devil." A voice purred within Drake as it merely sat there and rubbed Drake's hair, making it move despite not being there. Meanwhile, a certain girl started to walk through the park with her pet bunny, venting her frustrations to herself.
"Oh Kiko I know my parents are trying to make me feel good but it just doesn't make up for this." The girl said as she hopped off her bike. Her parents bought her a brand new bike, but she originally wanted a Moped. However she always loves her parents gift as they care very much for her and she wouldn't be the way she is now thanks to them. However her bully Mitzi teased her for having this kids bike while she got a Moped and rubbed it in her face. However as fate would have it Mitzi scooter seemed to have problems as if by magic the tires exploded, making Bloom think an angel was watching her. The girl dragged her bike beside her while her pet Bunny hopped along. She always loved going to the park and relaxing there, and it seemed she wasn't the only one as she notice someone laying next to a tree. Now while she didn't absolutely know everyone in town, she knew a certain group of people that always came to this park and this was not one of them: A boy to be exact.
"Who is that?" She thought, they might have been homeless or something, however as she got closer she realized he didn't seem homeless by the clothes nor how nice he smelled. She realized it was a teen boy a year or two older than her and had long white hair. He had a black trench coat along with a guitar case and a belt next to him. She didn't notice the shadow above the boy disappear and into his taking form, Bloom was to focus on the boy to really care.
"I wonder who he is." She thought as she leaned forward to see more features of the teen. She notice his facial features changed as he grunted in his sleep, a cringe appeared on his face as he also started shuffling.
"He must be having a nightmare." She said as she went on her knees next to him and getting closer to his face... she couldn't deny he was cute.
(Dream)
"Mom! Dad! Vergil!" A young white hair boy yelled as he ran up a hill with a wooden sword in hand. On top of the tree were three other individuals sitting or standing under it. One was an man with white hair and a book in his hand, while the other was his son sitting next to him and reading another book. Meanwhile the blonde hair woman stood at the top of the hill waving at her running sun as he finally made it over to them.
"Drake!" The woman exclaimed happily as the young Drake tackled his mother and wrapped his arms around her stomach and resting in her chest. The mother wrapped her arms around her sons head. Drake laughed as he nuzzled into his mother's chest while his mother kissed his forehead.
"Drake... Why…. Drake?" Drake opened his eyes and instantly felt heat on his cheek. He felt dread and fear in the very core of his body as felt a very bony hand touch his head, blood running down his cheek. Looking up the little boy eyes widen in shock as he stared at the dead corpse of his mother.
"Why didn't you save me?!" She screamed before she was engulfed in flames. Drake shook in fear as tears slowly slid down his eyes backing away in fear as the landscape, his home, was burned to the ground as shadowy like figures surrounded him.
"OH what a poor little baby." An female voice hissed from the flames.
"I think he is about to wet himself." A male stated with venom in his tone, while Drake tried to run but the flames surrounded him.
"Does he carry the powers of the Witches?" A gruff voice asked before grumbling to himself.
"Daddy?!" Drake cried out for his father but no one answered, for his father was gone. He turned around to see his older brother staring at him with cold eyes. a katana in his hand.
"V-Vergil?" Drake asked in fear as the two siblings stared at each other, blood dripping from the edge of the blade. Drake watched as a silhouette of a being from behind Vergil glaring at Drake with one blood red eye.
"Vergil." Said bot looked up at the being. "Kill him." The boy didn't respond, he merely glared at Drake before swinging the sword.
SHH!
Drake eyes widen as he felt something warm hit his face and heard something hit the ground. He couldn't feel anything in his right arm, and felt a little weight off his shoulder. He slowly looked over only to see the stump of his shoulder, before blood sprayed out like a hose. Meanwhile the shadowy beings started to bellow in amusement while Vergil looked on in cold apathy, while Drake's jaw dropped as he tried to form the simplest of words..
"...AAAAAAAAAA-"
(Real World)
"-AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" Drake eyes shot open as he let out a primal scream until he realized where he was. His scream died down as sweat beaded down his forehead and laid back down.
"You had another one, my little Devil." A soothing voice echoed in his mind. Drake said nothing as he wiped the sweat off him and a soothing song echoed in his mind, one his mother sang when he was a child. It wasn't until he realized he was laying on someone is when they also blocked out the sun for him. Opening a single eye he notice a girl staring down at him, until he realized it was the Bloom girl from before.
"Are you okay, sir?" She asked as Drake laid in her lap. Drake looked up and down the girls face and body and smirked before leaning up and and staring into the girls eyes. Within the entity and him agreed this girl was deliciously cute, and they both loved it.
"Why is a sweet girl like you worried by some stranger laying in the middle of a park?" He asked with a sultry tone as he cupped the girls chin. Bloom cheeks burned red as the white hair teen gave her a look that made him look like a god, making her melt from his voice and touch.
"But I appreciate your concern." Drake said standing up and brushing himself off. He offered the girl his hand, Bloom snapped out of her trance and grabbed the hand. Bloom realized how tall the boy was, she was only at his chest and she still had to look up at him. He was like a giant compared to anyone she had ever seen and it kind of freaked her out on how menacing he looked. "Allow me to introduce myself, I am Drake. Drake Sparda." Drake introduced himself followed by a bow.
"OOOHHH. I like this one, so innocent, so pure...so delicious." An entity whispered in Drake's ear licking its lips.
"Hello Mr. Sparda, my name is Bloom." Drake chuckled slipping his hands into his pockets.
"Please Mr. Sparda was my father, simply call me Drake." He said before holding his hand out. Bloom offered her hand for a handshake only for him to take her hand and kiss her knuckles, Bloom blushed from the affections she was receiving.
"However I thank you for such a lovely name." Drake said as he let go of her hand and slipped back into his pocket. Bloom felt butterflies in her chest as she stared at the handsome man before her, before snapping back into reality.
"You not from around here are you?" Bloom asked.
"No I am simply a teen passing through." Drake lied, this girl to sweet so it's not like she would understand what he was doing. He suddenly felt something gnawing at his boot, looking down he saw a blue bunny biting his boot.
"Kiko no!" Bloom scolded her bunny picking it up as it growled at Drake. The Sparda said nothing as the creature pointed at him and tried to bite him again, only for something to flick it away. Drake looked at his shadow and if one could see the blood red eyes one of them blinked, he will have to thank her later when they were alone.
"Cute pet."
"I'm sorry Kiko isn't usually like this." Bloom apologized for her pets strange behavior.
"It's okay, pets usually don't like me….especially for their female masters." Drake added winking at Bloom. The red head blushed madly as Kiko glared at Drake.
"So…..what were you dreaming about? Was it a nightmare?" Bloom asked, causing Drake to sigh with a frown on his face. Bloom didn't know why but she liked it better when the boy had a smile or smirk on his face, it felt comforting. However she also notice something within his coat: Two pistols, and two more on his...boots? Before she could ask Drake started talking.
"It's a long stor-!"
BOOM!
"RRAAHH!" Bloom jumped at the explosion and strange cry while Drake looked over his shoulder where the explosion came from. Walking over to the noises he pushed some branches away to see several beings fighting. One was some yellow creature wearing pants that seemed to be ordering several little red gremlin like creatures who seemed to be fighting….a girl? The girl stood around the same size as Bloom with long yellow hair tied in the back. She wore a sparkly yellow shirt that covered her chest, skirt that revealed her legs and boots. In her hand was a silver staff with a Sun like symbol at the top.
"SOLAR WIND!" The Woman yelled as she blasted a yellow ball of heat from her staff. The gremlin like creatures avoided it leaving a burned crater in the ground as they charged at the girl. Drake watched with mild interest, these creatures were not demons with the aura they gave off but they were definitely not from this world. Same can be said for the girl, the very cute girl.
"Who is that?" Drake looked down to see Bloom standing next to him. However seeing the creatures made her feel scared and held onto Drake's arm. Drake said nothing as he felt the girls breasts pressed against his arm. If she saw what he fought she would be given true fear, though he would be glad she didn't.
"No idea." Drake answered as they watched the girl with the staff knocked away the creatures. However she couldn't react fast enough as the yellow creature came from behind. He grabbed her staff and flung her into the air before being slammed into the ground. The girl groaned in pain before she lost consciousness, her movement stopping. "But she needs help."
Bloom couldn't stop Drake as he walked out of the trees and into the clearing. The creature was to busy to notice Drake but the gremlins did. They snarled at Drake before lunging at him. Drake stopped in his track as the creatures prepared to devour him, making Bloom gasp in fear. Before anyone could blink all the red gremlin like creatures exploded in red gore, shocking Bloom and the yellow creature who just now saw the male. Drake facial expression didn't change nor did his movement but if one looked they would see his right hand shift in his pocket, a small splat of red blood stained inside his coat that would need some magic to get it off.
"RAH!" Drake merely looked at the yellow creature as it charged at him in fury. The boy merely stood there with his right hand slowly leaving his pocket ready for the kill. Not far from him Bloom could only watch in fear as this creature prepared to attack Drake, and while she didn't know him that long she didn't want him to get hurt. Something within her surfaced like a volcano erupting, her body covered in red flames as she threw her hand out towards the yellow beast.
"NO!" Drake was surprised as a red blast of energy flew past him and hit the creature sending it flying and dropping the staff. He looked over his shoulder and was even more surprised to see Bloom standing there, her hand glowing with red aura: the same he felt when he entered the park.
"Huh…..interesting." Drake said as Bloom aura died down and the girl lost control in her legs. Drake disappeared and reappeared catching the girl, holding her close to his chest for comfort.
"You okay?" Drake asked, Bloom groaned as she clutched her head in pain.
"Yeah….I'm fine for now." Bloom answered while Drake helped her back on her feet. Knowing she was fine Drake let her go as he walked over to the unconscious girl. Kneeling over he picked her up bridal style, seeing only a few cuts and bruises, before he turned to Bloom.
"She'll be fine but I have a feeling that thing will be back for her. You have a place she can hide?" Drake asked as Bloom grabbed the girls staff.
"Yeah, follow me." Bloom said as she guided Drake to the only safe place she knows. It's true she only met Drake and has never met the girl, but she felt these two must be very important, at least the girl seemed so.
(Unknown)
The yellow creature cowered in fear as three pair of yellow eyes glared down at him from the mist. He had once again failed in taking the Sceptor from the Princess, this time he might not survive their wrath.
"So you have failed again Knut?"
"Not my fault your highness, I had the scepter in my hand….but then this earth boy and girl appear and messes everything up." Knut said trying to keep himself from being fried.
"And earthling girl and boy?" Another voice asked.
"Oh but they were not normal, the boy destroyed my ghouls before I could blink and the girl blasted me away with this weird flame powers." Knut explained.
"...Interesting." Another voice stated as she looked at the others. "Describe her."
"Well let's see: The boy had um...silver hair an-!"
"Knut, your glasses. Where are they?" The first voice said as the creature reached into his pocket and pulled out a pair of glasses.
"Right here your highness."
"WELL PUT THEM ON YOU DOLT!" Knut tried to frantically put the glasses on while the three watched in annoyance.
"A near sighted Ogre, how ridiculous. If only he wore his glasses would he be alright." A voice said.
"Oh will you stop defending him!" Knut body shook in fear as he finally put the glasses on.
"We don't even know where they are now." The third voice stated.
"Oh but your highness we do, one of the ghouls before dying handed my a piece of cloth from the Princess." Knut said pulling out a yellow piece of sparkly cloth. "To us this is nothing, but to a hunting troll it's an important clue." Knut said as a giant blue troll creature walked out of the mist and started sniffing the piece of clothing. "See?"
"Good. Then go back to Gardenia and find the three, and this time."
"DON'T LET US DOWN!" All three yelled simultaneously.
(Bloom's home)
"Bloom where did you find her?" Bloom mother Vanessa asked as they put a blanket over the girl. They were in living room, letting the girl sleep in there on the couch. Drake was stood behind the girls with his arms crossed, seeing that the girls magical signature was bright yellow like the Sun. The staff was currently leaning on the wall as Drake didn't have anywhere to put and he knew the girl would want it back
"We found her in the park, she was attacked by these strange monsters but he saved her." Bloom said gesturing to Drake who merely waved at Bloom and her mother.
"And who is he?" Bloom's father Mike asked glaring at Drake, crossing his arms and standing next to Drake. However as soon as he did he realized just how tall the boy was, he looked to be bit older then Bloom but was the size of a giant, over towering everyone in the room. Mike couldn't help but feel a little intimidated by the boy, but he saw no malice intent from Drake as the boy simply ignored him. He walked over to Bloom and pulled something out of his pocket. Bloom saw in his hand was a crystal star with a screaming face on it, a little creepy but kind of cool too. Before Bloom could ask what it was Drake balled the crystal in his hand, the sound of cracking and something breaking echoed in her ear. Drake opened his hand to reveal green like powder, before he sprinkled some over the girl.
"It's a healing crystal. It heals anyone of their wounds in seconds." Drake explained as he finished his work. Sure enough the girls wounds were healed. Bloom eyes widen in shock and awe before she looked down as Drake took her hand in his gloved. Her hand still had a scorch mark on it from when she blasted the creature, Drake sprinkled some powder on it and the burns healed instantly.
"I never got to thank you for saving me." Drake said as he held her hand. True the creature would have been decimated within a microsecond, but the fact she did that was something not many would do for him, save for Kat and someone else very important to him. "Thank you Bloom."
"Excuse me young man." Drake looked up from the blushing Bloom to her parents, mainly her mother. "While we do thank you for saving this girls life and protecting our daughter but wh-?"
"Who are you and do you have any interests in our daughter?" Mike asked glaring at Drake.
"Dad!" Bloom whispered harshly while Drake stood up from his spot and walked over to the father. The two stared into the other eyes before a small smile appeared on Drake's face as he offered his hand.
"My name is Drake Sparda, I am a man of many mysteries." Mike was very hesitant to shake the young man's hand, but after serious thought he politely shook the hand. "For now I know there is something off about your daughter." Drake said gaining worried glances from Bloom's parents.
"Off?" Vanessa asked.
"In the fact she could throw fireballs from her hands, and she emits a magical aura around her body similar to the girl in the bed." Drake said shocking the parents.
"Oh that make sense." Mike said making Bloom beam with happiness.
"So you believe us?"
"Of course not! This kid is obviously on some kind of drugs." Mike said glaring at Drake before turning to the girl on Bloom's bed. "What we should do is take this girl to a hospital."
"N-No. Please don't." Everyone looked to see the girl waking up, her clothes changed to reveal a dress and a crown on her head. Vanessa instantly went to the girl side making sure she was alright.
"She's coming to. How do you feel dear?" Vanessa asked as the girl looked at her.
"I'm alright, the last thing I remember was that horrible monster and then pain…...but it was followed by a nice light and I didn't feel the pain any longer." Bloom looked at Drake who held a piece of the green crystal again in his hands, winking at her as he put the piece in his pocket.
"The crystal helps heal all injuries." Drake said as he went on his knees in front of the girl. "Name is Drake Sparda, and this is Bloom and her mother Vanessa…..oh and her Dad Mike." Drake said as he offered her his hand. "We saved you from that monster and his little Gremlins back there." Stella smiled as she took the boys hand, so mesmerized by his eyes, and that hair. What a hunk.
"My name is Stella." Drake smiled as he took her hand and planted his lips on it, making the girl blush.
"Nice to meet you Stella, I'm Bloom." Bloom said as she offered her hand, Stella smiled as she took it by she would occasionally look over at the cute boy before her.
"Should we call your parents, Stella?" Vanessa asked.
"That would be difficult. I come from a place that's a bit far from here." Stella said as she sat up. "Have you heard of Solaria? It's a kingdom far, far away."
"Let me be the first to say that no one in this room besides you knows about a place called Solaria." Drake said as he stood up. "What exactly are you? And why are you here?"
"I'm a Fairy." Stella stated making Drake's eyes widen while Bloom let out a gasp in shock. Mike said nothing as he tried to think of a rational solution to this while Vanessa listened. "I was trying to get to Alfea Castle in the Realm of Magix-!"
"Oh, but of course!" Mike yelled as everyone looked at him as he reached for the phone. "I'm calling the police. It doesn't take a genius to realize this girl is seriously out of her mind." A certain entity rolled her eyes at this mortals ignorance while Drake walked towards Mike. Before Mike could dial the police Drake took the phone in one fell swoop. Mike was about to scorn the young man until he stared into his eyes as the boy glared at him. He felt truly terrified as the boy glared at him, he didn't know how but it felt like he was staring at a monster.
"It's sad that some people won't take the time and think about this rationally. Why would this girl make up this Solaria? Why would I make up about Bloom's powers? Why would Bloom defend us? We don't know her and she just met us today. Besides it's not like Stella is the only strange thing in this room." Drake said as he handed Mike the phone back, completely crushed from his grip as Drake walked into their kitchen and took one of their steak knives. He pulled off one of his gloves before he ran the blade across his hand. Everyone gasped in shock as blood poured out of the wound until Drake showed them his hand as the wound completely resealed itself, as if it was never there. Everyone stared in shock, except for Stella as she giggled at the sight of another magical being in the room. She should have realized he was different from his aura but thought it was based on emotion...until she realized he was also a very tall male.
"Oh so your a magical being too? Are you a Wizard? Or how about a Specialist?" Drake shrugged as he slipped his glove back on.
"I have no idea what a Specialist is but I am neither that or a Wizard." Drake said as he walked out of the kitchen. Bloom stared at Drake in shock before shaking her head and looking back at her Dad.
"I saw her as well, I believe her." Bloom said defending Stella.
"Those creatures attacked me and forced me to land here on your planet." Stella explained. "Your Daughter, if what the cute boy is saying true, used a blast of magic to defeat the ogre." This is surprised the parents even more as Bloom blushed in embarrassment while Drake smirked.
"Actually, I don't know how I did it." Bloom said.
"A Fairy doesn't need to know how. She just does it, that's all." Bloom eyes widen at the mention of a Fairy, she's a fairy?
"I'm...a Fairy?" Bloom asked with sparkles in her eyes. She never saw herself as a Fairy, though she also didn't see herself as anything. All her life she thought she would just be a normal girl helping her Mom flower store, and yet here she was being told she was a Fairy. It was just so unreal and yet it made her feel far more important then she ever thought of herself.
"Of course you are, don't tell me you're not." Stella said, before a realization popped in her head. "Have you registered for the new program at Alfea Castle? It's the best school for young fairies like you and me…...and maybe if your handsome friend over there would like he can join Red Fountain and become a Specialist." Drake notice her eyeing his body which he responded with a wink making her blush and giggle.
"No, no. Stop talking nonsense, please?" Mike asked shaking his head while Drake rolled his eyes.
"Humans." A voice groaned in Drake's head as it too shook it's head and rolled its eyes.
"This is going to be a long night."
(Gardenia Power Plant)
In the Gardenia Power Plant everything was peaceful and quiet, the wind blowing leaves around and crickets chirping. Suddenly a strange purple orb appeared, with Knut, the Troll, and several of those Ghouls hopping out.
"Argh! Here we are." Knut growled as he pulled out the cloth and handed it to the troll. "Troll, do your thing." The Troll took the cloth and started sniffing on the piece of fabric, getting the scent as he revealed his canine teeth. "Find the girl." Knut ordered as the Troll opened it's eyes and walked out of the plants gates.
"This way!" The Troll roared as Knut and the ghouls followed him to the location of the Princess. However not far from them a red portal, far different then anything of this world opened up and several shadowy beings pulled themselves from the portal. Their eyes were crimson blood, their teeth sharper then canines and they looked inhuman. They sniffed the air and snarled as they smelled the familiar aroma of a half breed, snarling and snapping in the air.
"Sparda!"
(Bloom's House)
"So this is your room, huh?" Stella asked as she walked around the room. Vanessa let the three relax as she tried to calm Bloom's father downstairs, Drake liked her she was smart and more rational. He smiled down at Bloom as she blushed from his warming stare, feeling safe in his presence.
"Wow! Did you draw these?" Stella asked looking at the drawings.
"Yes." Bloom answered.
"They're amazing! Sorry, am I being to nosy?" Stella asked hoping she was being rude.
"Oh, no, it's OK, Stella." Bloom said as Drake looked at one of her drawings.
"They are truly beautiful." Drake said making Bloom blush red like a tomato. "You put a lot of work into them."
"Thank you." Bloom whispered until she turned to Stella. "What I meant is things are not okay." Stella gave Bloom a confused look as Bloom continued. "For instance, I still don't understand what happened in the park." Bloom said as she looked at her hand from what she blasted from it.
"Bloom, you used your powers to help save me. You should be proud of yourself." Stella said as she looked outside the window. "In my world, magic is a part of life and powers such as yours are perfectly normal." Drake notice Bloom's sadden frown, something he didn't like at all and needed to make her feel better.
"Besides what's wrong with having magic?" Drake asked as he took her hand in his, making her look up at him. "I think it makes you look wonderful." Bloom eyes widen from the compliment and blushed once more.
"Is your world like that?" Bloom asked Stella pointing at the book next to Stella while still blushing and admiring his eyes. Drake's eyes were so captivating, like it was an endless sea of life and joy that she never wanted to leave. She let out a small moan as she felt something she never felt before, when she was snapped back into reality when she heard Stella humming as the girl read Bloom's book.
"Is it?" Bloom asked. While everything in the book wasn't on spot with what Stella has seen it wasn't far off.
"YYYYes, almost." Stella said as she closed the book. "But it's much nicer in here. It's so different."
"I guess it all depends on your point of view, Stella." Bloom said as Drake let go of her hand. "I still can't get over what happened." Bloom said as she hopped on her bed.
"Strong feelings such as fear have summoned up the wonderful powers that are in you." Stella explained. "They were always there you just didn't know it. It's just a question of concentration. Speaking of powers how did you get yours Drake?" Drake notice the two girls staring at him as he leaned on the wall.
"I was born with it." Drake answered. "My powers came naturally and are a part of my family... with the help of a few others."
"Oh so your Dad and Mom had that type of regeneration?" Drake smirked turned into a frown as he looked down at the ground.
"Yeah...something like that." Drake muttered as his hair covered his eyes. Stella notice the aura around Drake spiked down gigantically at the mention of his parents. Bloom simply notice how sad he looked and the warm feeling from him was replaced by cold chills, something she didn't like. Knowing she should change the subject Stella looked back at Bloom.
"With your energy you can do just about anything. Watch." Stella said as she waved her fingers at some pencils Bloom had. The others watched in awe and fascination as the pencils glowed purple before morphing into a giant purple pencil.
"Okay now it is your turn." Stella said as she gestured to Bloom, the pencils still floating in the air. Bloom was a bit hesitant at first, but seeing how this was a way of seeing how her magic worked she wanted to give it a test drive. "Give them back their original shape." Bloom tried to wave her arms around, making the pencil shake before falling on the ground.
"Well?"
"...Nothing." Bloom sighed as she sat back on the bed. "I can't do it." Stella notice her sadden expression and decided there was a way to cheer her up.
"You should come with me to Alfea, it is a school for fairies." Stella said before leaning into Bloom's ear. "And bring that cute friend of yours, you don't get Specialist like that everyday." Stella said pointing at Drake who was currently holding Kiko as the rabbit tried to attack the Sparda, away from him. "You could learn to control your powers." Stella said as the pencil morphed back into little pencils. "And I'm sure you'd make an excellent fairy."
"Where's Alfea and this Red Fountain?" Bloom asked.
"It's in the enchanted Realm of Magix. A place beyond time and space where everything is possible." Stella explained. Bloom could only imagine it now as she pictured a ivory white castle with fairies everywhere.
"If you want to see the school, I'll show it to you." Stella said as she let a picture fall onto the ground before extending to the size of a carpet. It was a pink academy with several towers with domes at the top and a large gate at the front.
"This is a bottomless postcard." Stella explained as she stepped over the picture. "Watch this. Magixs." The other two watched in awe as Stella started sinking through the picture. "Now follow me." She sang as the two watched her slip through the portal.
"So like this?" Bloom asked as she stood on the picture.
"Yep like that." Bloom heard Stella before she gasped as she sunk into the picture.
"This is some Alice in Wonderland shit right here." Drake thought as he stepped onto the picture and sunk right through. Once he made it through Stella presented Alfea castle to them. The place it self was a massive pink castle, already Drake was unsettled by it as pink was his lease favorite color. Though he had to admit the entire world itself radiated with high concentration of magic, either natural or unnatural. Earth had a more nature flow but slight changes thanks to the demons, however this world has so much magic in it Drake was astonished by it.
"This is Alfea castle. Nice, huh? I'm sure you'd like it here." Stella said as Drake leaned on a tree.
"But what about my high school in Gardenia?" Bloom asked. She looked in awe at how beautiful this place is and if she was a Fairy she can become one at this place. She knew now it also meant leaving everything behind. "I mean everything is happening so fast."
"Well think about it. I've got to leave tomorrow morning with or without you." Stella said, making Bloom to sigh in annoyance over this tough decision.
"All right I'll sleep on it. Now how do we get out of here?" Bloom asked.
"Easy. All you got to do is jump up." Stella said as she exclaimed in happiness as she jumped back into the portal, Bloom and Drake following her. Once they made it back Stella summoned the picture back into her hand and looked at Drake. "Speaking of schools what about you Drake? I'm sure Red Fountain would accept you since your…..your um…...what exactly are you?" Stella asked as Drake smiled.
"I'm a special being with special powers like you, Stella." Drake said waving his finger out in a circle. From the movement a red circle appeared with a symbol with a crescent moon on two sides circling what appeared to be a demonic eye. The girls watched in awe as Drake pushed his hand through and it disappeared through the portal. "Many special gifts."
"Then why do you have the guns?" Bloom asked in a worried tone pointing at his feet. Drake sighed knew at one point someone was going to ask if he ever left Purgatorio.
"My specials gifts are also what make many enemies, from below and above." Drake said cryptically confusing the girls.
"What does that mean?" Stella asked as Drake sighed.
"It's a long sto-!" Drake stopped mid-sentence as he started sniffing the air.
"What is it?" Bloom asked as Drake sniffed the air before narrowing his eyes.
"That creature is back, and he brought some friends." Drake said as he opened Bloom's door. The two girls followed him quickly as they heard something smash from downstairs.
"Those girls must be around here somewhere!" They heard the creature from before yell smashing something in the process. Drake looked back at the two girls and grabbed their shoulders.
"Stay right here." Drake ordered as he calmly walked down the stairs. He walked into the living room to find that yellow ogre, those red creatures, and giant blue monster. He also saw both Bloom's parents being surrounded by the creatures as they snarled and terrified the parents. The sight of them angered Drake as something boiled deep within him as he balled his hands in anger, red mist started taking form around him as a astral form of a woman appeared before disappearing as Drake took a deep breath. He needed to calm himself or he might destroy the house.
"Where are they?" Knut asked as the Troll destroyed Bloom's family couch. He roared at the parents before he felt something tap his shoulder. Turning around he was met with a simple flick of the finger that if it was an ordinary human that got hit their head would have went clean off. The Troll was sent flying into the kitchen as Knut and the ghouls turned around to see Drake with his fist out. This gave the chance for Bloom's parents to sneak out as Drake glared at Knut.
"I may not know the parents very well, but it's disrespectful to destroy someone else home that they worked very hard on." Drake said walking calmly towards the ogre.
"Where are the girls?" Knut growled.
"Ask nicely and I won't consider it. People call this stalking, I hope you know that." Drake said as the ghouls charged at him. Both Stella and Bloom watched from the stairs as Drake stood there, the ghouls prepared to rip his skin off. In a quick flash the ghouls exploded in red gore again, this time Drake hand was hot and covered in their blood. Knut was about to charge when he notice the girls behind Drake standing at the stairs. He was about to charge before Drake stood in his way, wagging his finger back and forth in front of the beast.
"Oh no you don't ugly." Drake said.
"Alright white hair man-!"
"At least I have hair."
"Wanna see what me and troll can d-!" Before he could finish Drake sent a flicked the ogre so fast Knut was laying outside in the back groaning in pain.
"If that's all it takes for you then I don't see how a troll can be a big pro-!" Drake was cut short from a roar behind him. He looked over his shoulder at the sight of the Troll who charged at him in anger. Drake merely jumped over the creature before delivering a back kick to the head of the troll that sent it flying.
"If that is all it takes then I am clearly wasting my energy." Drake muttered as he slipped his hands into his pockets. Drake heard a cry and notice the girls outside with two ghouls attacking them. With quick speed he reappeared in front of the girls and grabbed the ghouls by the back of the neck, tossing them into the air.
"Girls, close your eyes and ears." Drake said as he pulled out a silver pistol and aimed it at the flying ghouls.
"Bang."
BANG!
KA-SPLAT!
The ghouls exploded in a red mist from the one bullet shots, a perfect hit, Drake holstering his gun and looked back at the girls who widen their eyes at him.
"What...are you?" Bloom asked in shock and awe as Drake scratched the back of his head.
"Are you single?!" Stella asked with hearts in her eyes. Drake would have answer had it not been the roar of the troll who got right back up. Drake prepared to finish the job as it charged at him as he pulled his fist back and stood in front of Stella and Bloom. Only some sort of whip wrapped around it's neck holding it in place. Drake looked over his shoulder to see four boys around his age wearing the same blue and white outfit with a cape on. The first boy had light brown hair with red glasses and some sort of futuristic fork in his hand, Drake had no idea. The next had blonde hair, his weapons were a light blue energy shield and some sort of sword. The next had magenta spiky hair wit a purple dagger and held the whip. The last had brown hair with a giant green great sword.
"Guys, I'm ready." The one with glasses said.
"OK, let's take him to jail where he belongs." The blonde one said.
"What's the rush? Don't you want to have a little bit of fun first?" The spiky one asked.
"I wouldn't be so cocky if I were you. After all this only our first mission." The brown said as the troll pulled the whip and sent the spiky one flying in the air. "And I rest my case." The troll growled at the boys before walking over to them as Drake stood where he was.
"Stay behind me." The blonde one ordered as the glasses kid stood behind him. His shield took most of the attacks from the troll as it continued to slam against it. "Sky, you mind doing something?!"
"What?!" The brown kid Sky asked before he realized what was going on as he jumped and swung his sword at the troll.
"That is not how you swing a sword. Where is the heart? The power?" Drake thought as he watched these kids fight the troll, his fist still balled as he prepared any attack and protected the girls. The Sky kid slammed his blade into the ground and cracked open the earth, distracting the troll.
"My turn." The kid with glasses said as he fired three arrow like projectiles that moved in the weirdest fucking direction. They hit the ground beneath the troll and sent him falling into the pit, while the boy smirked in victory.
"Those were like the shittiest arrows, why were they moving so slow?!" The entity screamed, Drake honestly had to agree, those arrows were quite stupid.
"Bulls eye."
"Yeah, well done. But it's not over yet." The blonde boy said. Meanwhile the girls were so distracted by the boys they didn't notice Knut charging behind them.
"Now your mine!" Knut roared as he prepared to slam on the girls. A nanosecond later Drake appeared in front of the girls as he threw his fist back, red energy surrounding his fist.
"Not so fast, ugly."
"SPARDA!" Drake's eyes widen at the familiar tone and felt the energy of a familiar foe. He groaned and rubbed his nose in irritation knowing what was coming next.
"Never can catch a break." Drake said as he looked at Bloom and Stella. However the two seemed to be not moving, like they were frozen in place. In fact everyone: The boys, the monsters, anything in sight wasn't moving besides Drake.
"Thank you, Devil Time." Drake said thankful that his Devil Time activated. Devil Time was capable of stopping time from across the world and possibly even the universe, Drake has never really tested. It is very useful when fighting enemies but there is a catch: If someone on his level or beyond Drake, the Devil Time is useless against them as he Mother explained when teaching him these moves. Drake popped his neck and calmly walked towards the side of the building, pushing the Troll aside. Planting his boot on the wall he started walking up the side of the wall with ease as if he had magnet boots on. As he calmly walked up the wall he looked around as very fast shadows zoomed around him, the only thing he could see was the dust. Drake smirked before he jumped into the air as something smashed into the wall where he stood, Drake landing back on the wall as he stared at what tried to attack him.
"Blades." Drake stated as the Blades glared at the male. Blades: Green lizard like demons with armor on their head and arm that resign in the Second Circle of Hell Envy. Razor sharp claws and teeth that could break through metal and cut people into cubes within seconds the creatures were more speed, being faster then the speed of sound they were the Grunt Level demons unlike their Elite Brother counterparts. The two Blades snarled as three more appeared behind Drake who merely smirked and shrugged his shoulders.
"You guys really know how to ruin a fun moment." Drake said before he heard the flapping of wings above him. Looking up her saw seven flying demons with goat like heads. "And you even bought Goats? Now this isn't even a picnic." Goats, More exact the Goat Clans, were a group of devil Goats that came from the First Circle of Hell Limbo. While they were the Elite Level of Demons they were the lowest of Elites, except say a captain and they were split in three types: The Goatlings, Grunt Class goat demons. The Blood Goat, a lower Elite Class demon that can fire black flames. Finally the Abyss Goat, the highest of Goat demons which can cast dark magic and curses, speaking of the Goats. One of them was an Abyss Goat, the leader of the group, who glared at Drake with malice and hate. Drake merely pulled out Ebony and Ivory and twirled the guns in his fingers.
"Of course you went through all that trouble just for me, so in return." Drake twirled the two guns before he aimed them at the demons gangster style with Ivory above Ebony. "I'll give you a dance with Light and Shadow." Light and Shadow, the combination of all four of his pistols. Luce and Ivory represent the Light of Day, while Ebony and Ombra represent the Shadow of Night. Guns powerful enough to obliterate through tanks with a single shot, and supernatural forces that could obliterate countries with swings. Handed down from his parents Drake carried these weapons as one of his main artillery in combat along with another weapon of choice.
The first to attack were the Blades as they all dashed at the white hair boy. However Drake easily sidestepped each and everyone of them, flipping around that would make the most flexible man jealous and green with envy. He fired Ebony several times that obliterated two Blades, their blood turning into mist thanks to the guns magical powers. Plus he doesn't want them to cover the girls in blood, that would be horrible. Two Blood Goats flew towards Drake and fired several bolts at them, but the boy jumped over them and planted his boots on both their heads with enough force to crush their skulls.
However the force fired Luce and Ombra and reduced them to ashes, despite the name Blood Goats are filled with ash. Drake flipped into the air spin kicking at the Goat demon, firing a barrage of bullets that penetrated the Goat demons. While two more were killed the rest were fine as the Abyss Demon started chanting in ancient demon language: summoning a curse that will turn Drake into stone. It fired the green bolt towards Drake who was busy with the Blades. However it's pride shambled as Drake grabbed a Blade and threw at the curse bolt, the demon turned to stone.
Drake merely wagged his finger in mock before smashing the stone demon into another Blade knocking it away. The Blade got up to see Drake's boot on its face, before it heard the sound of machine activating. Turning around it's demonic eyes widen at the side of a treadmill on the wall, spikes on each side with spinning blades at the end. The Blade screeched in fear as it tried to bolt away, but the only thing keeping him away was Drake's boot. Drake smirked before kicking the Blade towards the blades, reducing the demon into a puddle of blood as the treadmill of doom disappeared. Drake jumped into the and threw his fist forward, red energy consumed his fist as he punched right through a Blood Goat, destroying it in seconds. Drake jumped over the Abyss Goat and blasted the last Blood Goat with a spin kick, sending its head flying. Drake landed back on the wall holstering his guns, however her felt a pair of teeth and turned to see the last Blade sinking its teeth in Drake's right arm.
"Naughty little lizard. Though I think I went a little to long with the guns, besides I'm more of...Swordsman." Drake said holding his hand out, as if summoning something. A window smashed into tiny little pieces as something flew towards Drake, who smiled as he pulled his arm back. The Blade snarled before it screeched in pain as a hilt flew right through its torso and split it in half. The Blade flew towards the ground before a flash of light the Blade was reduced to cubes as Drake twirled a massive blade.
"Sorry Rebellion, I know I neglected today." Drake said planting the large blade into the wall. Rebellion: a massive claymore with a heavy double-edged blade, notched on both sides near the tip. The pommel was a single spike, the grip was plain but the guard is skeletal, with a skull-design on each side leading to the rib cage from which the blade emerges; on one side of the blade, the skull is that of a human, while the other uses a horned demon's skull. The Abyss Goat landed on the wall at stared at sight of the Demon Slaying sword, the one that could kill any demon, cut through mountains with single stroke and once wielded by the traitorous Dark Knight.
"Now you can run with your tail between your legs, or be a dumbass and run like the others." The Abyss Demon roared at the challenge and reacted in its anger charging at Drake. The boy huffed in annoyance before swinging Rebellion, and in a flash the demon passed Drake. It roared in pain as its right arm fell to the ground and turned into ash before it roar was cut off as Drake twirled Rebellion in a reverse grip and stabbed through the demons chest. The demon went silent as Drake pulled out Rebellion, a clean cut with no blood on the blade, the demon falling to the ground with a thud. Drake jumped off the building and landed next to the demon, seeing it was alive.
"Son...of Sparda." The demon growled as Drake placed Rebellion on his back. Mentioning the name of his father.
Sparda, the Legendary Dark Knight that defeated the demons eons ago.
"Yeah that's my title, been worn out since I first heard it." Drake said kneeling down to the demon.
"We will continue to hunt you...Umbran Devil." Another title Drake has gained throughout the Underworld. A title he had gained for being quite different then they had ever seen: Son of a Devil, and the Son of a Human, Eva: The legendary Umbran Witch.
"Mmhmm."
"We will kill you, just like your traitorous father...Just like your whore Mother." The demon growled as Drake stared at him.
"...Another pet peeve."
BANG!
The demons head exploded as Drake unloaded into it with Ebony, the demon reduced to ash as Drake wiped his face of any remains. He stood back up and holstered his gun before turning to Knut and seeing time was once again reverting back to normal.
"RRAAAHHHH!"
"Get lost." Was the last thing Knut heard as Drake kicked him so hard very earth beneath shook. Knut didn't have time to scream as he was sent skyrocketing past the city and even beyond that to place the world knows it as Mexico. A gush of wind blew Drake's hair around and his jacket tails flared violently from the power of his punch. His boot steamed from the pressure as he planted it back on the grond and turned around to smile at the girls.
"Sheesh, even got to stretch my legs and I still ain't satisfied." Drake said as he helped the girls up, before the three turned to meet the four boys as Stella stepped forward.
"It's a good thing I called you guys, but I had no idea that this cutie behind us could pack a punch." Stella said praising Drake as the Sparda simply shrugged. "Bloom meet the four newly Specialist." Stella gestured to the spiky kid. "Riven." The kid said nothing as he glared at Drake.
"Prince Sky." Stella gestured to the boy with the green sword.
"Hey."
"Timmy." The kid with glasses and waved at them.
"And Brandon, Prince Sky's squire."
"Hello." Brandon said waving at Bloom.
"Who is the guy with you?" Riven asked pointing at Drake. "Is he some kind of Specialist?"
"I rather not be a premature costume wearing kid who hasn't even dropped his balls." Drake retorted as he looked down in the pit as the troll pulled itself out, but before it could get any further a boot was planted on it's head. Drake said nothing as he effortlessly kept the troll at bay, the creature growled but heard the clicking of a gun and looked to see Ombra pointed at its skull. Meanwhile Timmy put some collar on it, while Drake ignored the glare he got from Riven as he put his boot off the troll.
"Where do you think you're going?" Timmy asked the troll who merely growled at him. Bloom's parents came just in time to see the troll being carried off in the air. The boys turned around and waved at the girls as a spiral energy of blue color appeared.
"See ya later!" Three said in sync as they disappeared into the blue portal leaving the three with the parents.
"When did you get your guitar case?" Bloom asked noticing Drake had his guitar case. Drake merely smirked and winked at her, he was just that fast.
(Morning)
Mike was currently fixing up the room with Drake helping him sweep up the place. Though the male was merely grumbling seeing why he had to clean a mess he didn't make, while the entity inside continued to laugh at his misfortune.
"I guess I owe you an apology." Mike started making Drake look at him. "I guess I was just worried about my da-!"
"You love your daughter and want to protect her. I completely understand that." Drake said as he continued sweeping as Stella walked in.
"You know I could use just some magic to clean this up."
"Yes please."
"Thanks but I prefer this one." Drake grumbled in annoyance before he notice what Stella was wearing. Instead of the gown from last night she wore a light green halter neck style, tank top that was tied into a bow and revealed her small stomach, an orange short skirt that revealed her thighs and legs, a simple lavender colored hairband that let her hair fall down to her butt.
"Bloom's ready." The three turned to see Vanessa and Bloom with her suitcase. After last night fiasco Bloom had come to a decision and chose to go to Alfea with Stella.
"You're sure about this sweetie?" Mike asked for the hundredths time.
"Yes, Dad." Bloom said. "I'm going with Stella to the Realm of Magix and Alfea Castle."
"At least call us as soon as you get there and let us know everything." Mike said as Drake watched from the door. He smiled as the three talked as a family, a flash of red hair appeared in his mind as a frown appeared on his face.
"My job here is done." Drake thought as he slipped his hands into his coat and walked out the front door and away from the house.
"She'll have a good time I can tell." Drake thought as he made it to the sidewalk.
"It's to bad, I wanna have fun in a new dimension. All I see everyday is the same old mortals." The entity groaned while Drake chuckled at her boredom.
"DRAKE!" The young Sparda looked over his shoulder to see Bloom running up to him.
"Bloom what are you doing?" Drake asked as she finally caught up to him.
"I was going to ask you the same thing. Aren't you coming with us?" Drake eyes widen at the question, she wanted him to come with her. Sure they met and he did think she was cute but this is different.
"May I ask why?" Drake asked as Bloom rubbed her arm awkwardly.
"Well I feel like we just met-!"
"We did. It was yesterday."
"And I want to know you a lot more…..if that is alright with you." Bloom said as she offered her his hand. Drake stared at the hand as he contemplated his options she gave him. True he could go with her since he too was magical, though not like her, and could get into a school. However he had business here to take care of.
"Besides you will have so much fun there." Stella said walking up to them. "You'll be close to us and we can hang out. What do you have here anyways?" Stella asked oblivious to Drake's frown as he looked away and up at the sky. He still had some unfinished business here and he still had people like Kat to look after. However going to an all girl school sounded like a great plan, chuckling to himself at the idea of the shower time, which also made the entity to giggle at the idea. Besides if he didn't like the place he could always leave and head back home. Plus with what Stella said he could hang out with them all the time, which would be very nice. Kat did always say he needed to expend his horizon on friends. Drake looked back at them with a smirk as he took Bloom's hand in his, walking back to the house.
"What are we waiting for? Alfea here we come."
(Unknown)
In the middle of what appeared to be an endless desert, a single figure walked across the sands. Their body shrouded in cloak and black leather as it dragged their feat across the sand. Their face shrouded in darkness and by the cloaks hood before it stopped in its track.
"..." It looked up into the sky as it felt a silent shockwave. He watched as some creature screamed to the heavens as it skyrocketed past him and past the hill not far from him. A sweat drop appeared as he heard a faint 'ow' before slowly walking up the hill. It made it to the top as it stared at the crater below him, the yellow creature pulling itself out of the hole.
"D-Dang snowflake man." Knut muttered as he pulled himself out of the sand. "I'll get you for thi-!" His stopped in mid sentence as he felt his hands wrap around something leathery. Looking he notice a black boot, before trailing up and being met with total darkness of a face. The two beings stared at one another, Knut shaking in fear while the being stood still like a statue. Suddenly the being crouched in front of Knut making him jump, still not moving a muscle like it was studying Knut.
"Snow...flake…..man?" The being hissed, it's voice raspy without a source of water.
"Y-Yeah, he had white hair and everything." Knut said as he man hands rested on his knees. Knut notice the mans hands weren't really hands but covered by some leather like hooves.
"And….did wear red? Like blood?" The creature hissed.
"..."
"...It would be kind if you answered." The creature hissed holding up one of it's covered hands like it was ready to strike, making Knut basically wet himself.
"Y-YES!" Knut cried as the creature stood back up before looking up to the sky.
"...So a blood of Sparda lives?" The creature roared as Knut clapped his hands together, teleporting away from the creature. It hissed as a single red eye appeared, staring up at the sky as a storm appeared, a maelstrom. The storm, never seen in the desert created by the unknown forces as lightning struck the ground around the figure. He too soon was struck by the lightning hit it but remained unaffected by the storm. He looked at the direction the creature came from and started walking towards the location.
"I have you now…..Son of of Sparda."

(Nariyamanu ai wo sakebu yo subete wo daite koko ni irunda. Hikari wa soko ni aru yo. Yuzurenai omoi wo kakete kibou no hate wo boku wa ikiru yo Yume wo tsunaida kimi to.)
Drake stared out as the sun rose from the trees, standing on top of a hill as his coat fluttered against the wind. Bloom stood by his side as the two stared off, the young fairy girl taking her hand in his as the Sun set over them as the others joined them. A larger shadow casted over the sun as Drake pulled out Rebellion and swung the large blade.
(Winx May Cry: The Umbran Devil)
(Hajimari wo itsuka bokura no te de umidasunda yo. Yasashii kimi no koe mo kitto sekai wo kaerareru)
Drake stood on top of the tallest tower of Alfea School staring off into the distant, Bloom and the girls waving him to come down. The next scene changed to show Drake and the Winx laying on the ground in a circle, enjoying the moment of peace. Drake sighed before hopping into the air and pulling out Ebony and Ivory.
(Dare mo hitorikiri ja tachiagare ya shinai kara. Tagai ni te wo nobashite kagiri wo koeta ashita e.)
The scene then changed to show a tall well built black man covered in Tattoos holding a short fat Italian yelling at Kat with one of her hands glowing with green energy ready to blast the fool. The next showed Faragonda smiling with Griselda, Griffin glaring at her rival and a smiling Saladin as Griselda and Griffin bickered.
The next scene showed three young girls that glared at unforeseen foe with energy channeling through their hands. The middle one was covered in ice, the one on the left was lightning, and the last in dark magic. Above them was a being covered in shadows, a single sole eye glaring down while above it was a shadowy being with two blood red eyes before lightning shot out and struck the figure.
The final scene showed four silhouettes with white wings flapping and surrounding by several angelical beings. The next showed several crimson eyed creatures before more appeared, taking on demonic forms. A strange being with a woman figure sat on a sofa with antler like horns as she ran a finger down her chest. Finally a very tall woman with raven hair as she pulled her fist back, a giant demonic hand appearing before she lunged forward. Drake stared at the blood moon as his shadow took on a demonic form.
(Nariyamanu ai wo sakebu yo butsukariatte wakariaunda. Hikari wo tsukuridasu yo.)
Drake charged at the shadowy figure swinging Rebellion, but the figure caught as his entire covered glove exploded showing red clawed hands as the two clashed. Bloom and the Winx fired bolts of magix at the three girls who fired back while the shadowy being took form and fired bolts of lightning. The next scene showed Drake summoning a giant woman as a white haired woman across from him summoned a similar demonic woman as they pulled their fist back and clashed creating a shockwave.
Kat slapped her hands together as she fired three fireballs at an oncoming demon and obliterated it. A man in a blue coat appeared walking along a sidewalk, a Katana in hand as his shadow took the form of a male demonic man.
(Akiramenu omoi wo kakete kibou no hate wo boku wa ikiru yo. Yume wo tsunaida kimi to.)
Bloom walked across a destroyed world, a fiery aura appeared around her before it took the shape of a dragon and lunged forward. The next scene showed Drake sitting down before Bloom lunged on his back wrapping an arm around his neck as Stella, Flora, Musa, and Tecna joined as they stared off at the beautiful sky.
Drake stared at the forces of darkness that lunged at him with the intent to kill the Umbran Devil. He stared at the dark forces before he threw his arms out and roared to the heavens as his body was surrounded in red aura. His body exploded as it took on a new form, something less human and far more demonic as the pillar of light exploded into the sky and the screen went white.
(Winx May Cry: The Umbran Devil.)
AND DONE! FOURTEEN THOUSAND WORDS! I didn't originally plan it to be this long but honestly I am okay with it. I'm gonna try and not make every chapter this long but it makes sense for a prologue. Alright so let's get into the idea of the story: Obviously main crossovers are DMC, Winx Club, and Bayonetta.
And yes as you guessed, Drake is the Son of Sparda the Legendary Dark Knight and Eva one of the first humans and the very first Umbran Witch. The reason why I chose Eva as an Umbra Witch was because of Bayonetta, you see in the first game an item known as the Bracelet of Time mentions an Umbra Witch named Eva, who made a pact with the 'Legendary Dark Knight' to face the demons of Inferno, sounds familiar? So in this story Eva is a super badass Witch who sided with a good demon. Who was in fact made in the Circle of Pride, making him a very powerful demon already and only third in that Hierarchy and Circle.
I was originally gonna have Drake have the Summons from Bayonetta 2 but then I thought 'Fuck that, let's try a few new creatures no one would expect' but I will say this that one may or may not appear and it is Drake's. So don't worry Drake doesn't have Madamma Butterfly or Gomorrah. He does have a Madamma just not one you'd expect. The one I will be using from Bayonetta is by far my favorite Summon in the Bayonetta game series. Anyways a lot of mentions of the Creator, the Serpent, and the Overseer? Care to guess them? I will tell you they are not Queen Sheba or Mundus or Jubileus.
And yes, before anyone ask, Dante. OG, my favorite Dante is not in the story. WHY CRUEL ME?! WHY?! It's not that I hate OG Dante, I fucking love him. I just did it because I don't really have need for him, same can be said for Vergil. I do this out of love for my story. Also with no DMC (Tosses the garbage out the window) that means I can use way more. Their necklaces obviously look like the originals from DMC1 but different colors: Drake is red while Vergil is blue.
Also explaining Drake's current weapons:
Light and Shadow: Four handguns that his parents made for Drake when he was a child. Ivory and Luce represent the Light while Ebony and Ombra obviously represent the darkness. Ebony and Ivory on his hands while Luce and Ombra on his boots.
Rebellion: Large claymore sword that his father carried into battle to fight the Hordes of Inferno and against the Serpent King. It origins remain a mystery like most of Sparda's weapons but that are one of the most powerful weapons in Hell that can even slay the Gods.
In all seriousness I hate DMC: Devil May Cry but I enjoyed a few things: Like three enemies, not even the bosses, Arbiter and Osiris design, and some of the styles were pretty cool. So while I hate DMC it has it's moments...still on the bottom of the list of my most liked DMC game series.
Elements from other Fictional Universes:
Bastard! (Manga Series)
Darksiders (Game Series)
Darkstalkers (Just one thing)
Shin Megami Tensei Series.
That's it for elements, I don't really add to many things and simply want to keep to the DMC/Bayonetta/Winx Club story.
The demons are obviously ranked strongest based not only by the class but by the Circle they resign in. The circles will be explained later on but now just guess a few. You will most likely know all so kudos on you.
I don't have the harem complete yet but when I do I will explain it all. For now simply enjoy the next chapter.
Next Chapter Summary: Drake, Bloom, and Stella arrive in Alfea where they meet new friends, and new enemies. Who are the masters of the creature Knut, what do they want and will they be a threat? And what true threat is looming over the horizan? Who killed Drake's parents and why did his sister betray him? Who was that creature in the desert? Found out next time on Winx May Cry: The Umbran Devil!
Please review, PM for ideas. Etc. Until then, Zer0the0mega108 out!
