" We need you to take them out." Virgil said. Sephiroth nodded in agreement. I stared at them quietly. I thought about there request. I had nothing better to do and the Dante and this Vincent Valentine sounded like worthy opponents.
" So basically you want us to kill a half breed and a man?" I asked thinking of the descriptions they had given me.
"Vincent is no man." Sephiroth stated.
" And Dante is no normal half breed, he is powerful." Virgil said.
" That's why you came to us? A half-demon assassin and a werewolf. We usually only kill people who need it. What have these men done?" I asked wiping my white hair out of my crimson eyes.
" Vincent has killed many people, look what he did to deep ground." Sephiroth said.
" And Dante has killed to many of our demon kin." Virgil said.
" Deepground you say, they were out to destroy the world." I stated simply to the long silver haired man.
" He killed my mother." Sephiroth hissed in anger. Well, murdering women and killing demons? They weren't our usual prey.
" We may have something that will help you decide." Virgil said hitting a button. A wall turned clear and beyond I could see my cousins chained to the wall. I also say my partner Lance's sister chained with them.
" Let her go." Lance, my partner said icily.
" Not unless you kill Dante and Vincent Valentine." Sephiroth said. Lance growled at him in anger.
" Well do it." I said. Then speaking for Lance I asked, " Where are they?"
" At the moment Dante is helping Vincent study the language of the ancients in the forgotten city." Sephiroth said. Lance and I turned and walked out of the building. I glanced over at my black haired blue eyed partner. His jaw had and angry tick to it. Lance wore a long black trench coat and cargo pants that had spikes and chains all over and those annoying zipper that go to nowhere. He wore a dark green t-shirt. And combat boots. His two shot guns were in the holsters on his hips. He had a green leather belt that had daggers dangling from it. He had two other dagger hidden in his combat boots. Then on Lance's back was his main weapon, a scythe. It was what one called a devil's arm. Lance let out a growl of frustration. Lance was my partner, but he wasn't human, he was a werewolf. Lance was always quiet and calm accept when he is angry. He growls, but as usual doesn't speak.
Lances point of view
I looked over to see Sora staring at me with a worried expression. I let out a growl of frustration. We'd better find these guys and kill them quick. Sora still stared at me with her crimson eyes. Her long white hair was messed up. She wore tight white jeans and combat boots. Her combat boots were red with white laces. She wore a white cloak. She had tore the sleeves of it. The bottom of the cloak was ripped and ragged. She was very hard on her clothes. She left the cloak unfastened to reveal her red tank top belly shirt. Then she wore red fingerless gloves. She had two red leather belts that formed sort of an x. On one belt it held daggers, while the other held several grenades. On Sora's back was here weapon of choice Sorrow, a devil's arm. Sorrow was a sword, which could detach it's blade due to the chain inside the handle allowing you to swing the blade trough the air. She also possessed a second devil's arm called Pain. Pain was a solid red pistol looking gun, but it had way more power.
" We need to find these two quickly." Lance said.
Sora's point of view
Lance was right as usual, so we headed to Edge. It didn't take us long to reach Edge about two days. We arrived at night time. The only light came from the dim streetlights. We then noticed a store with a flashing red neon sign, it read " Devil May Cry." This was where the Dante guy was supposed to live. Lance walked strait up to the building. He quickly scanned it with his eyes.
" He's not here." Lance said hatefully.
" Down boy." I said to Lance. He spun around to glare at me. He hated it when I referred to him as a dog. Lance turned around and walked inside. A few moments later he walked out side. Lance sniffed the air and ran off. I followed him. First we went by a bar called 7th Heaven. Lance went inside. After all he was the intelligence gather not me, I had an uncanny knack for saying the wrong thing. After a few minutes I got rather bored standing in the street with the stupid street light above my head flickering. I let out an aggravated sigh. Several minutes later Lance stepped outside. Instead of telling me what he learned he headed off, and I had absolutely no choice but to follow him. We headed out of Edge. At midnight we arrived at a forest with eerie trees that glowed white, and that glow only seemed to enhanced by the full moon. You must be thinking why Lance isn't a wolf, well they can change on will it's just they're strongest when there is a full moon. We walked through the eerie forest for some time. We soon made it to a lake. There was a presence, something about the lake made me uneasy. Lance suddenly hid behind a tree. We had company. I jumped to the highest branch of one of the eerie trees. I glanced down to see two men coming from the trees. One had messy white hair, blue eyes, and a red trench coat. He had loose leather pants and black boots. He also had a sword sheathed on his back and two guns holstered on his sides, this must be Dante. The other had long messy ebony colored hair, he had crimson eyes, and he wore a weird red cloak. He wore all leather and had a triple barreled gun on his hip. This one had to be Vincent Valentine.
Immediately they realized a presence and within seconds they stared up at me. They both tensed unsure of my intent.
" Who the hell are you?" Dante called. I felt no need to answer him I only watched him.
" Hey I'm talking to you!" Dante called, this time there was anger in his voice. Dante gritted his teeth in anger.
" May I ask your name?" Vincent asked calmly.
" Tell me your name and I shall tell you mine." I said boredly.
" Dante." Dante said as his hand went to his sword, he didn't draw it yet though.
" Vincent Valentine." the ebony haired one answered.
" Well then," I said standing up on the branch, " Dante, Vincent, no hard feelings, but you have to die now." I teleported myself right behind them. I pulled out Pain. Dante swung around and shot at me. I side stepped the bullet and pulled my own gun's trigger. Dante dodged my bullet. Vincent swung around as well and shot at me. I was surprised by his speed. I didn't have time to dodge the bullet that dug into my left shoulder painfully.
" That hurt." I said as I spun around and kicked Vincent back while ducking under Dante's sword.
" There's more where that came from." Dante replied smirking as he fired more rounds at me. I easily dodged them and silently cursing to my self due to the pain in my shoulder.
" Hey Lance how bout some help from your lazy werewolf ass!" I yelled. Dante seemed to be surprised I yelled for help. Vincent on the other hand had already spotted Lance. Lance stepped out from behind the tree. Lance growled at Vincent and Dante. I was distracted by Lance showing himself Dante grabbed my arm and swung my over him and through the air. I landed hard on the ground next to Lance who had now transformed into a wolf, snapped at me. I rolled out of the way to avoid his teeth.
" Down boy." I said. Lance then snapped at me again this time I jumped out of the way.
" Get them not me you dumb dog." I snapped, and as usual I said the wrong thing. Lance turned human and was right behind me in an instant. I tried to dodged Lance's attack, but his scythe cut deeply into my shoulder. I jumped way from him. My arm stung now with an unbearable pain.
" I need a new partner." I snapped at Lance as I dodged Vincent's bullets.
" Fine then, get another partner. I'll laugh when you dead." Lance said as he attacked Dante.
" Lance do you like flowers cause I want to know what kind of flowers to bring to you funeral." I hissed as I shot at Vincent.
" Like you could kill me." Lance said as he threw a dagger at Dante who easily deflected it.
" I may let them kill you, after all I don't want to stain my clothes." I said jumping away from Vincent who tried to attack me with his clawed hand.
" Really, I've seen you completely drenched in red blood before." Lance said as he swung at Dante and cut Dante's side open.
" You know, you two could just fight it out and we could kill the winner." Dante grumbled.
" Sadly it has to live, peoples lives depend on that." I said motioning toward Lance.
" What does that mean?" Vincent asked calmly.
" It mean-" but before I could finish the sentence Lance cut me off.
" Sora shut the hell up." he said glaring at me. I glared at Lance but stepped away from him. Lance turned back to face Dante. Me I kept my mouth shut as I continued to fight Vincent. I didn't want to be on the receiving end of his anger. Dante and Lance where going at each other pretty hard. Dante then trans formed into his demon form. He and Lance went at each other with ever thing they had.
" Damn it. Sora don't take your sweet time if we don't kill them your families dead." Lance growled, That flipped a switch. I attacked Vincent harder and faster. Then Dante knocked Lance back. I jumped in front of Lance and blocked Dante's attack. Vincent then fired his gun and shot me in the leg. I cursed as I knocked Dante back.
" Get up Lance." I said as Lance climbed up to his feet. " Sora don't waste anymore time." Lance said. I sighed. I dug into the depths of my being. I pulled out all of my hate and rage. I turned into a wolf demon with bat-like wings. My leg and shoulder stung from transforming, I'd completely forgotten about my injuries. Then Vincent took that moment to shift into Chaos form. Lance was getting the crap beat out of him by Dante. As soon as Dante was injured he healed. I sighed, this mission had been a suicide from the start I thought as I rushed at Vincent. We were pretty evenly matched until Dante knocked Lance unconscious. I couldn't handle both of them. They were both two much. I was just being used as a punching bag, I'd block ones attack and the other would hit me. Finally I jumped over to Lance taking human form.
" Lance." I said. He regained consciousness and pain fully stood. Dante and Vincent returned to there human form.
" Just give up." Dante said.
" Never." Lance growled as he fell sideways. I held him up.
" This was a suicide attempt from the start." I said to Lance.
" Yeah, Sora leave and go tear those pieces of shit apart and tell my sister I'm sorry." Lance said collapsing, he wasn't dead but he would be soon. Shit. I glanced at Lance and to them. I got in a fighting position, I'd go down fighting.
" What did he mean by tearing people apart?" Vincent asked. I might as well humor them.
" He meant the guys who sent us after you." I said.
" Why, because you couldn't beat us?" Dante said with a cocky expression.
" No, we were forced to come after you." I said.
" How so?" Vincent asked.
" They have everything that means anything to us. Now die!" I yelled running at Dante. I moved to fast for him to dodge. I stabbed him with my sword. I spun to stab Vincent but he caught my hand. He knew I was spent, that was the last of the energy I had. I let out a shaky breath as I realized how much pain I was in. Vincent let go of my hand and I collapsed.
" Who hired you!" Dante yelled.
" Virgil and Sephiroth." I said.
" What?" they both asked shocked, but that was the last thing I heard as I disappeared into darkness.
Pain was all I felt, And it hurt. I was starting to wake up. Slowly I felt myself return to my body. I felt I was about to die, but then again dieing was less painful. The events of what happened hit me hard. I shot up into a sitting position, my body screaming in pain as I did so. I heard a gun cock. I glanced over to see Dante had a gun barrel inches away from my head.
" Who'd you say hired you?" Dante asked.
" Sephiroth and Virgil." I said watching Dante carefully waiting fir my chance to knock his gun away. He cursed at the mention of the name Virgil. I noticed Vincent standing in the corner of the room. He seemed to be engrossed in his own thoughts. I glanced over to see lance unconscious on the bed.
" Lance!" I called as I startled both Dante and Vincent. But my body had other ideas. Pain shot through my body causing me to fall to the floor. I only gritted my teeth and got to my feet. I pushed through the pain, I'd done it in the past and I'd do it again. I walked over and knelt next to Lance. He was hurt bad but alive, what had Dante do to him in that fight. I cursed silently to my self. I reached into my pocket and pulled out a small amulet. It was a demon head with eyes made of demonic jewels. It couldn't heal me but it could heal Lance. I let the amulet dangle a few inches above Lance. I could feel Dante and Vincent watching me with great interest. The amulet glowed and eerie red. Then Lance began to stir. I placed the amulet back in my pocket.
" what did you do?" Vincent asked.
" I healed him." I said.
" With a demonic amulet." Dante said.
" Yes." I said not looking away from Lance. Lance opened his eyes and shot strait up. He quickly glanced around the room. He looked at me angrily.
" We'll be back in a moment." they said exiting the room.
" What the hell! I told you to run." Lance growled standing up.
" I tried to take them out but it didn't work." I said.
" Obviously!" he yelled. He was very angry, and he didn't think strait when he was angry.
" Where are our weapons!" he snapped.
" I don't know." I said honestly. Lance paced angrily back and forth growling. I sighed.
" I think they might help us kill Virgil and Sephiroth." I said. At that Lance stopped pacing.
" Are you sure?" Lance asked.
" Pretty sure. I think they have something against Virgil and Sephiroth." I said.
" Then we need their help." Lance said.
" It looks that way." I said.
