Blue Eyed Devil

His eyes slowly came open. The uneven bricks of the building behind him were digging into his back, not that he would admit to feeling pain. He was waiting on his idiot brother at the moment. They were checking out a rumor of devil activity. With a heavy sigh he looked up. Across the way was a woman looking at him curiously. Her head was tilted to the side. Her dark hair was at least past her shoulder blades and cascaded down in waves. She blinked lazily.

"Hey Vergil!" Dante yelled.

Vergil snorted as he turned his attention to his brother. Shaking his head he returned his gaze to the place before Dante interrupted and the woman was gone.

"What are you looking at?"

"Nothing," Vergil growled.

"Well this trip was a dud," Dante said as he scratched his head.

"Why am I not surprised Dante?"

"Well excuse me."

Vergil pushed himself off the wall and walked down the street. Yamato clutched in his hand. He never left home without the katana at his side. He realized after a few moments Dante wasn't following behind him. The red clad Sparda twin was looking around in confusion. Vergil raised his eye brow wondering if Dante had finally lost what he never had to begin with.

"Can you feel it?" Dante asked his brother.

"Feel what Dante?"

"Go back while you still can," a voice whispered upon the wind.

Both Spardas tensed hearing the voice. Dante drew Ebony and Ivory waiting for the voice to show themselves, the woman from before stepped from the shadows. Her eyes were sad. She turned her gaze from them and pushed a dark lock behind her pointy ear. Dante looked at his brother and Vergil was entranced by the woman before him. There was something so wrong with that, Dante decided. For the life of him he never thought his brother would be much of a ladies man, even though he was sure that his brother wasn't gay. Another girl came skidding to a halt in front of the other girl. They girl began to motion frantically and speak only gibberish to Vergil's ears. The smaller girl tugged on the taller one's arm trying to drag her away from where she was standing but the girl wouldn't budge. The smaller girl stopped fighting the girl and both took on a fighting stance. Vergil and Dante turned to see what had the two so riled up. Hundreds upon hundreds of shadow reapers were advancing on them with their scythes poised ready for the slaughter. Their unmistakable laughs rang through the small area. Both half-breed devils got into their own fighting stance waiting for the inevitable battle. The wave of shadow reapers rushed forward. The group of four leapt forward ready to meet their foes in battle. Reaper after reaper fell under the combined efforts of the four but they just kept coming. A hoard decided they liked Vergil better because they swarmed him. As he swung Yamato in a graceful arch he tried to get rid of the reapers but they kept coming. From nowhere something hit him from behind causing him to stumble forward. Whipping around he saw the girl holding off a large crimson shadow reaper. It dwarfed her by a lot and she seemed minuscule against him. To his shock though she easily forced the crimson reaper backwards and sliced through him causing the reaper to vanish to ashes.

"I didn't need your help," Vergil stated icily.

She just looked at him. Her companion gave him a glare as she faced him. Dante stood beside the two girls.

"Come on Jess."

"But…"

"Enough."

She turned and expected her companion to follow her. The smaller girl followed without complaint. Vergil and Dante watched them walk away wondering briefly if they'd meet up again.
