Villainy Thrives
As the hours ticked slowly by, Andorra was busy replaying what she had heard in her head. there was no way this demon was telling the truth, all they did was lie. Then again, Vergil was a demon and he mostly spoke the truth. Was the break-up an elaborate plan by him, thought up as a way to keep this from happening?
Had he really been wearing a disguise? Hiding in plain sight to keep a close eye on her?
If all of this was true, then the things he'd said to her had been a lie. But why wouldn't he tell her? Did he really want this to work that well? The tears from her to be real, the words and anger?
Andorra sighed; her brain was starting to hurt.
Suddenly one of the demons came from nowhere and approached her.
"Time to hide you..."He sniggered. "It's almost go-time."
"Are you really sure about this?" Nero asked, "Giving up the amulet this way?"
"Just do your part." Vergil hissed as they approached the meeting place. A silhouette separated itself from the shadows.
"Follow..." its breathy whisper commanded softly. "What you seek is further on..."
Andorra was forced into a broom closet and her mouth was covered.
"Can't have you making any noise, now can we?" He asked cruelly. "Can't have you getting rescued."
He shut the door, laughing as he locked it and walked away.
"Where is she?!" Vergil demanded once they were inside the right building. "What have you done to her?!'
"You'll never find her!" the demon said triumphantly. "And once we kill you she'll belong to us!"
He was still laughing when Vergil cleaved him through with Yamato.
Suddenly fifteen more replaced him, and Vergil felt his battle lust awaken. These lowly creatures would soon fall at his feet...
Andorra began to freak out in the closet, she could hear the sounds of a battle in the distance, and that freaked her out more. She really hated the dark.
Halfway through the killing spree, Nero separated from the group to search for Andorra as Dante's request. It was more for Nero's safety than anything, once Vergil let his battle-lust awaken, hardly anything could stop him. Nero certainly didn't want to be around when he started to turn on them.
"Okay, shouldn't be that hard to locate her in here..."
With the demons slain, Dante now had to figure out how to calm his brother without getting ripped to shreds. Vergil was close to his trigger state, the demonic form flickering in and out of focus. his eyes glowed and icy blue and his voice was distorted.
"Okay bro, they're all dead now you can calm down."
Vergil turned his attention to his brother, studying him for a moment.
"Verge, it's me. Listen, you've got to calm down now. We still have to find-"
"Andorra." Vergil finished, his battle lust fading away and returning him to his normal self.
"You have got to learn to control yourself when you do that." Dante said. "It's getting tiring having to calm you down every time, although this time was relatively easy compared to last time."
"New abilities take time." Vergil replied, looking around the room. "Where is Nero?"
"He split off to go look for her about ten minutes ago."
"We should follow him." Vergil said, taking off in a random direction.
Nero searched every room he came across but so far he had no luck in finding her. He was beginning to lose his patience when he heard thumping noises somewhere behind him. He turned and saw a small door.
"How did i miss that?" He muttered to himself before approaching the door. he cursed when he turned the knob only to find it locked.
The thumping noises stopped, then started again.
"You in there?" He asked, and sighed in relief when the thumping got louder. "Back up so i can open the door."
Andorra scooted herself as far back as she could go, and turned her head to avoid any sharp object that could go flying at her head. The sound of creaking and groaning metal made her squint her eyes shut just as the door was ripped off its hinges and thrown to the side. She turned her head to see Nero retract his Devil Bringer and come towards her.
Dante and Vergil stopped when they heard a loud noise, like a door being destroyed.
"I'll bet he found her." Dante said with a grin, c'mon let's find out where that came from."
"Ow," She complained as Nero pulled the tape off her mouth. "That really does hurt; i thought they exaggerated in movies."
Nero chuckled before helping take off the restraints. "Are you OK?"
"Yeah I'm fine." She replied as her hands were freed. "Although i must ask you something."
"What's that?"
"Has your father lost his mind?!" She screeched. "Where does he get off thinking that this was a good idea!?"
"Why don't you ask him?" Nero said as her ankle restraints came off. "He's here now."
