Chapter 2 - My life.

Both Nero and Dante sat on the sofa,
Nero looked down at his small normal hand as a single tear slipped out of his eye.
"So what brought you here?" Dante asked the boy as he crossed his arms over his chest,
"My Mother and Father wer murdered," Nero replied as his voice cracked with emotions,
"...Well I'm sorry to say this but ever one of your parent's were keeping a secret from you or at one of them weren't your true parent," Dante explained awkwardly.

"What do you...mean?" Nero asked as he sniffed up,
"What I mean is that you mister hold a great power just like I, Your a half breed of demon and human so one of your parent's were a demon and that Kid, that is a Demonic arm," Dante explained as he pointed to the boys right arm.

"Kid why don't you go up to bed?" Dante suggested,
Nero nodded as he got up from the sofa and then walked upstairs.

Dante was shocked by his own gentleness he showed towards the Kid, well they were the same after all and he realised how hard it must be to take all this all in. Dante sat there and thought back to when he was Nero's age.

XX-XX-XX-XX-XX

Dante and his twin brother were eleven today, they played tag in the back garden of there family mansion. "Hey, Thats no fair Vergil you cheated," Young Dante whined,
"No Dante I didn't, thats the whole point I made you think that I cheated so then I could actually cheat then win," Vergil commented with no humour in his voice.

"Mum...! Vergil is confusing me again," Dante whined again but this time at his mother,
"Vergil! stop confusing your brother you know he isn't as intelligent as you," There Mother laughed,
"Hey I can't help that he's a smartass," Dante snapped,
"No Dnte...Your just a dumbass," Vergil snarled back.

Dante and Vergil sat against a tree arguing about who would make a better Demon, "Happy birthday, to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to Dante and Vergil, happy birthd-" There Mother Eva sang as she came out with a cake but before she could finish a dark figire stood behind her just before it twisted a sharp claw into her stomach, It was a Demon!

Dante and Vergil stood frozen as they stared in shock at the scene before them. "Where is Sparda?"The Demon hissed as it pushed its claws further into her stomach, "Oh are these the children of Sparda?" The Demon asked again as he pulled his claws out of Eva's stomach and let her drop to her death.

The Demon edged closer, its red eyes glared with hunger as its sharp teeth were pursed up in a smirk. "Run...boys...run!" She screamed as she coughed on her own blood,
The Demon placed his attention back onto Eva, He stabbed her one more time; that was all that way left to finish her as her body rolled lifelessly to her "death bed".

It turned back aroung to find nothing, Dante and Vergil had ran just like there mother commandeered them to do. Dante and Vergil kept running until they eventually ran out of breath, They leaned against a wall of a abandoned shop, "Dante what are we going to do, Mum's dean and Dad's disappeared, where are we going to go? Dante?" Vergil cried desperately as he held onto his brother,
"I don't know," He simple repiled.

Dante knew he had to stay strong for everyone, he knew he would have to hide his pain and let it eat him until he was close to breaking and thats exactly what he did but he didn't realise how much he blocked his brother out and how much it coursed Vergil to go dark side.

Vergil and Dante started killing Demon's together until Vergil slowly turned his back against Dante.
Dante let him slip, he couldn't save him, he gave into his Demon and was controlled like a senseless puppet, he hungered for power and that just made him crazed.

Vergil lied drained of life in Dante's arms as he took his last breath,
His head rolled backwards into Dante's arms as his teary eyes shut for the last time, that was Dante's breaking point all the pain and lost that he held back pushed its way out in one big scream.

"VERGIL...WHY?!"

It went down hill from there, Dante killed ever Demon in his sight and drank himself near to death,
he just felt empty he wanted the pain to go but it never did heal.

One day he decided that he had enough with living his life in that misery so he just shoved everything aside with a cocky attitude, He meet meany people including two women: Trish and Lady, which help him through it. But the one amazing thing is he was only 15 when he finally lost everything,
Just like Nero had, Nero was left to live alone and had to endure the same pain,
Yes they were very similar.
