Chapter 1: The women in the rain
"Dante! wake up, i need the money you owe me" Dante slowly took the magazine laying on his face off and opened his eyes with and annoyed moan.
"Why do you need the money?" Dante said to Lady in an irritated tone.
"Because i was on a mission and i kind of destroyed 4 city blocks and my pay only covered 3" Lady stared at Dante with a pleading face.
"And you think i have the money because?" Dante made Lady really think about that.
"Well i...i.." Than all of a sudden there is a loud knock on the devil may cry door.
"WE CLOSE AT 9!" Dante Yelled.
"Please may i come in, it's raining and i have nowhere to go" Dante sighed and walked over to the door and opened it. There stood a women with long black hair with blue streaks through it. she looked about 25 and was about 5 foot 5 and slim.
"Yes i guess you can come in, but only til the weather clears up" The women nodded her head
"But first, I would like to know your name?"
"OH yes of course my apologies, My name is Jessica" Dante nodded and went down to his desk and put his legs up on the desk.
"Nice to meet you, now i am going to do my personal stuff so make yourself at home but do not bother me" Dante grabbed his magazine and placed it on his head and went to sleep.
Lady got annoyed with Dante so she left making sure she caused a loud BANG! when she exited the building. Jessica stood in front of the door looking very confused as to what type of place this was. I was a fairly square shop with a bathroom and stairs to a second story it also had a pool table, a desk, a chair, a sofa next to fridge, an old pizza slice on the floor, a dart board, some boxes but it had lots of weapons and demon trophies (demon heads) on the walls. Jessica walked over to the fridge to get something to eat. But when she opened the door all that was in the fridge was more pizza.
'God does this guy only eat pizza' Jessica thought as she shut the fridge door and went and to lay down on the sofa. she tried to get some sleep but for some reason all she could think about was this strange man sleeping on the chair. she felt like he was someone who was safe to be around but dangerous at the same time. She also felt a strange and dark power lurking deep down in this man but she didn't know what. she decided to ignore it and try to get some sleep.
Jessica awoke to find herself in a grass field, wondering how she got here when the last thing she remembered was falling asleep on an old scrappy looking sofa in some guys shop. she got up to see if she could locate anyone she knew or anything she was familiar with. nothing. She turned around to see a shadowy figure behind her smiling evilly at her, like he had some evil plan in store for her it began to creep her out.
"WHO ARE YOU! I DEMAND TO KNOW" Jessica shouted while she tried not to look at his dark gloomy evil eyes in the process.
"My my, you sure are a bossy one and i can't believe you don't remember me" His voice was so shallow and cold it sent shivers down her spine. Jessica gave him a proper look and she saw the face of a lion with its face stretched and its nose, ears and eyes removed. It took her a few minutes but than she remembered this evil demons face.
"You're the demon that was at my house the day my family died"
"Very good, i was beginning to worry that you didn't remember me, glad you do now lets down to business"
"What business would that be?"
"Well you see, that night i discovered something about you that i never thought possible and i decided to savor it until the right time, and now is the right time but will wait until it is exactly the right time"
"And what might that you that you discovered"
"All in due time, all in due time i will tell you until then just wait" As he finished that he disappeared and an figure of a man in a red coat appeared out of the blue. She was unable to see his face so she walked up to him to try and get a look at his face. Before she could get close to him the floor around her began to crumble and she fell through. She screamed with all her might she saw the man in red run to where she had fell and call out her name. But she did not hear it very clearly because she was to busy focusing on the fact that she was falling.
she awoke find herself in what looked like a bedroom lying on a bed. She sat up to see a room covered in blood and the man in red again standing a the door. She felt confused and tried to find out what was going on.
"Who are you?" She asked but got no response from the man.
"Did you hear me i said who are you!" She screamed but still no response, Jessica got angry and walked up to the man to see if she could force the answer out of him. but when she reached out to grab his face all she saw was the face of a skeleton. She screamed at the sight, never before had she been so shocked in all her life. Then a raging fire started in the room and consumed it in a matter of seconds. As the fire drew closer to Jessica she cried for help with no luck, then she heard a voice.
"This is what you will create, you are the reason your family died and you will be the reason why this man and everything else with be destroyed...destroyed...destroyed" The word echoed in her head. she could not stand it she wanted it to end, she she heard another voice, a more soothing voice telling her to wake up.
Dante shook Jessica but she wouldn't wake up he new something was wrong because she was screaming and she was mumbling 'no it wasn't me' over and over. Dante got irritated so he grabbed some water and threw it on her. Jessica jumped up at the touch of the cold water hitting her skin.
"You alright, you looked like you were having a bad dream" Dante's calm and concerned voice made her feel less tensed and she felt a lot more safer than she was a few seconds ago.
"Yer I'm fine, it was just a bad dream"
"That was more than a bad dream, it looked like you were in a horrific nightmare or reliving a bad memory from the past"
"I'm alright don't worry about it"
"You sure"
"Yes I'm fine" and with that Dante shrugged and let her be while he went to his desk and grabbed a slice of pizza before sitting down at his chair and reading his magazine. Jessica rolled her eyes, all this eats it pizza and read magazines its amazing he is not seriously ill.
"Is pizza all you eat?"
"No.. i also eat strawberry sundaes"
"How long has it been since you had a proper meal?"
"Honestly, i have no idea" Jessica was shocked, this man hasn't had a proper in a such a long time she knew he deserved one as a thank you for letting her stay the night.
"Get up I'm taking you out for a proper meal"
"Excuse me, what did you just say"
"I said get up I'm shouting you out for a proper meal down at the local bar" Dante didn't complain he hadn't had a proper meal in so long and she was offering to pay so he didn't care. He got up of his chair and grabbed rebellion and ebony & ivory. and walked out the door with Jessica.
"Why did you grab weapons people will think you're a freak" Jessica asked as they walked down the street to the local bar.
"You never know when you or someone might need saving by a dashing hero like myself" Dante said with a smirk. Jessica rolled her eyes before walking up to the bar with Dante. She gave him a look that meant how about here Dante shrugged as he entered the bar followed by Jessica. Everyone stared at the tall white haired man and a short black haired girl walked through the door. Jessica felt really nervous as she followed Dante up to the bar stools she sat down next to Dante who ordered a strawberry sundae.
"I thought i told you a proper meal" Jessica said giving him an irritated look.
"For me this is a proper meal... and i haven't had a strawberry sundae in a few weeks" Dante said giving her the adorable puppy eyes so she would let him have his sundae.
"Fine have you're stupid sundae"
"You should order one too" Dante recommended
"I don't eat sundaes" Jessica said annoyed about how much he obviously loves sundaes. The bar tender came out with Dante's sundae and a spoon. Dante gets strange looks because he orders a sundae at a bar but he doesn't care.
"Here try some" Dante grabs a spoonful and puts it up to Jessica's face. Jessica sighs and opens her mouth to try some of the sundae.
"Not bad i might think of ordering one" Jessica orders a sundae and sits there and eats with Dante, while Dante tells her lots of not funny jokes.
At this moment life was great.
