Last time on devil may cry…..
"LADY!"
"What?" Lady appeared in front of him covered in blood. Demon mostly but he could tell that her blood was on there as well.
"Just making sure you're alive. I don't even know what the target looks like."
"uh huh. Ok anyway I found the elevator but it's broken and I think the stairs are going to be crowded, although it's probably the safest bet."
"Would that be an excuse to ride on my back?"
Lady snorted, "You wish. We're taking the stairs." She started for them but was pulled into an embrace, by Dante, and out the window.
Less than a minute later they reached the top of the warehouse. "Ugh, don't you listen to me Dante?"
"No."
"UGH!" She stormed to the end of the roof looked down and gaped.
"See Dante…this is why you need MY help." She pulled out the gun from her thigh and started down the fire escape. Dante walked over to the edge of the roof and looked down to see that there were huge amounts of demons down below trying to climb up the building.
"Hey Lady I'd slow down if I were you. It looks like were in for a pretty wild storm." He glanced at the sky seeing a dark blue tint to the horizon; anyone glancing at this would assume that it's just the start of nightfall. Dante and Lady had fought for a long time and when a storm approached they knew it was harder for them to fight. (Not that Dante cared, hell he couldn't get sick and rain didn't slow him down but Lady was human. He will always deny that he cares). "I take it you don't want my help getting down?" He jumped down the building before hearing her response, knowing that it would be no.
They fought up till it started thundering and lightning. "Hey Dante, I think we should take cover!" Lady had to yell over the thunder to make sure Dante heard her.
"Yeah yeah." He cut a lizard/dog demon in half and walked back to where she was…there were only a few of the slimy vermin left and Dante had the itching feeling that that would be it for the night; storms typically weren't the time when demons wanted to be running around killing people. "What's your rush to be out of this weather, don't you like to be wet with me?" He grinned.
Even though her back was to him Dante knew that Lady smiled at his crude jokes. Without paying attention to him she walked to the front side of the half blown up building to start heading for Devil May Cry, or a cab.
They reached the front side of the building right before it started to really rain. "Shit…" Lady arched an eyebrow at Dante; who shrugged in response. "Not really my plan to walk in the rain."
Lady shrugged and pulled out her cell phone, which was hidden on the waistband of her shorts. "Hey Jake,……yeah…… thank you! Yep. We're at…..yup…no he's not my boyfriend…..I'm sure.. Ok what?! YOU ASSHOLE!"
Dante crossed his arms and looked at Lady with amusement in his blue eyes. Lady shut him up with a cold glare.
"He's on his way."
"He?"
"Yup."
"…hmm…" She nodded. "Do I get to know who "he" is?"
"Nope."
A car zoomed around the corner cutting off their pathetic conversation. The guy in the car looked in his 30's and had blonde hair and a blonde mustache with sideburns to match. Once Dante and Lady entered the car Dante noticed that the guy was wearing a white tank top with oil stains on it complete with a beer-belly. Dante's mind was wondering on so many things he didn't even insult the guy; which caught Lady's attention.
Lady turned her attention to "Jake." "So is my bike ready yet?"
"No, sorry with this weather I had to move everything in and by the time I was going to start working on it you called me and demanded I take time out of my busy day to come and save your ass from getting wet."
Out of no where Lady punched Jake in the face and sent the car swerving into the wrong lane almost crashing with another car had Jake not seen it coming and turned the wheel. "Now now Lady…it's for your own good."
"Stupid Jackass! Don't you EVER plant a tracker on me and not tell me!!"
"That's kind of the point there Lady." Dante pointed out from the back seat, he received a glare and a gun pointed at his forehead. "My your violent today."
"If you don't want a ride back to Devil May Cry get out."
He raised his hands, "No complaints here."
"Then shut up." She turned around and glared at the man in the drivers seat. "Where is it."
"Huh?"
"THE FUCKING TRASER!" She cocked the gun.
"Oh! It's hooked on the back of your shirt caller."
She reached back and grabbed it. "If you EVER….""I know, I'll be dead.""No. I will give you to the demons and I wont save you next time."
"Lady Lady Lady, so much anger, don't you ever just go with the flow?" Dante got shot in the face. Blood sprayed on the back window and on the window on his side. Some even hit Lady.
Dante started laughing, "Don't you know how hard demon blood is to get out? Jeeze Lady I thought you were smart."
Jake parked the car in front of his shop, coincidently it just happened to be a block from DMC. "You're bike will be ready two days tops. Come see me then."
They watched Jake enter the shop before they started their walk through the rain. All the sudden the wind picked up and it started hailing. "DAMN!" They ran for the shop, Dante slightly a head of Lady. All of the sudden lightning struck right in front of Lady and she fell backwards and screamed. The lightning had hit her arm as she was running.
Dante heard her scream and saw the lightning, his body moved without his knowledge. One minute he was still running back to DMC the next he was at her side picking up her fragile form and carrying her bride style to the building; with her protesting. Once inside he set her down, watching as she cradled her arm. "Is it bad?"
"No, I'll live, I just wasn't expecting lightning to attack me. Ha-ha."
"You have the best luck."
"Pfft me? I have better luck than you. You fuck up every job I give you."
"Really now…" He raised a perfect eyebrow. Well for a guy it is.
"Yup."
"Is that a challenge?" Lady realized her mistake too late.
Dante had her pined over the back of the couch and wouldn't let her go. "Huh Lady? I love challenges…especially one such as yourself…" (insert wink here).
Ok next time there will be more…well romantic stuff…yeah that..anyway enjoy…??
