Hello everyone! I really appreciate everybody who's taken the time to read "The Journey". When I made this fanfic I thought it really wasnt gonna get anywhere but I realized that a lot of people have viewed my story! Thank you again and enjoy the new chapter! (P.S I might even get fan art for my characters!)


Vergil sped as fast as he could to the meeting spot. He was especially worried about Lycretes' safety. Seeing his destination clearer and clearer, he pulled over on the side of the road. Vergil retracted his keys from their location and locked his doors with a push of a button. If Lycretes was so desperate to meet him it had to be important knowing Vergil had gone through banishment. Vergil ran as fast as he could through the brush that was before him and reached a brick wall.

"I seriously hope this works," Vergil said with a desperate sigh.

He breathed in and out calming himself down to focus. He pressed his hand against the door firmly and concentrated on the wall in front of him. Suddenly, a circle surrounded Vergil's hand along with a glyph appearing on the back of it. A sound like a lock snapping was heard and the brick wall slowly slid into the ground like a passage opening up to him. Vergil sighed with relief at his success and as the passage opened he looked into the palm of his hand and focused his gaze there for a few seconds. When the brick wall finally sunk in enough for his entry he closed his hand into a fist.

"Don't worry Lycretes…I won't disappoint you again…"

He looked to his left and then to his right swiftly seeing no one in sight. With a sprint, he ran through the passage which slowly started to rise back up as he had entered it.

Vergil slowed his sprint to a stride, and then a calm stroll as he looked at his surroundings.

"Wow, this place seriously needs a touch-up or something."

The field was almost a desolate wasteland with the exceptions of the grass and the buildings that surrounded it which couldn't even be classified as buildings now that they were almost broken down. These buildings weren't ordinary skyscrapers though. They kept this place a secret from the non-Elysian.

"How is this place still hidden though?"

They structure of the buildings were almost like they were chopped through the middle. They slanted at an angle like they were cut by something. Vergil shook his head as he couldn't dwell on that now. He needed to find Lycretes ASAP. He kept walking checking his surroundings once more. The other buildings that were supposed to be here were also demolished leaving only broken down husks of what they used to be. Vergil knew he couldn't be in one of those buildings because Lycretes had known better than to trap himself in a small area. The field was an excellent place to be just in case someone decided to follow one of them. They could just hide between buildings. Vergil and Lycretes knew this field inside and out. The only place he could be is in the center where the fountain is or was from what the condition this place was in. That was their usual meeting spot just in case there was a meeting here. Vergil wanted to use his powers just in case he was wrong.

"Alright…I hope this still works too. I haven't used this in a while," Vergil said with much worry.

Vergil closed his eyes and breathed in and out slowly and continually just like he did before. Vergil whispered to himself:

"Lycretes…"

and an image started to flicker in his head.

Lycretes was leaning on a building just in front of their meeting spot.

"When is Vergil going to get here? That boy better not keep me waiting," Lycretes said impatiently with his slight Russian accent.

Lycretes was a built man with broad shoulders and a big torso. His blue eyes shined along with his short, light blonde hair and his white complexion. He always donned a suit which either had to be black and red or red and black. This time it was black suit, red tie. His trench coat, though, was different as it was deep brown and dragged down to the tips of his shoes which were designer and dressy. It was either classy or nothing when it came to Lycretes.

The fountain was just like Vergil thought it was going to be. It was decayed beyond recognition. The fountain was a statue of a dragon which should have water running out of its mouth. Instead of its iron demeanor it was now riddled with brown rust. Lycretes sighed heavily and sat down at the edge of the basin that was supposed to be filled with water. He sighed once more and folded his arms leaning his head back onto the dragon's head. Lycretes closed his eyes thinking only about Vergil's wellbeing.

"I seriously missed that ki-"

A presence made itself know to Lycretes which made him go wide eyed for a few seconds.

"So we were followed huh? I never thought that she would've sent anyone after I concealed our call from her. She always has a way of finding out things sooner or later."

Lycretes moved his hands to the insides of his coat and grabbed his twin pistols. At his sides also, were his twin blades as well which were named Osiris and Anubis. Vergil never really saw him use them but when he did the battle was done with a flash.

"Sorry Vergil. There's something I gotta take care of."

With that, Lycretes ran dashed towards his objective.

Vergil opened his eyes with a gasp. The clairvoyance that he had obtained during his time as a vampire finally ran out.

"Damn! Are you serious?!"

Vergil stomped on the ground mad at himself from not concentrating hard enough.

"Whatever. I'll just have to find him myself. How hard is it to find someone that huge right? Besides, Lycretes can take care of himse-"

A slash from a blade made its way at Vergil which was about to go through his neck. Vergil swiftly ducked as the blade cut off a short piece of his hair. As it floated to the ground, his leg sweeped the assailants and made their feet come off the ground. The assailant back flipped a few feet away from Vergil and landed softly. Vergil stood up looked at the mysterious person which happened to be a female which was shown by her bust which was on the C-cup side. He was tempted to ask but this really wasn't the time.

"Who the hell are you," Vergil shouted out to the woman.

"Lady Selina will correct her mistake!" The woman shouted back at him.

The woman started to charge at Vergil which made him stand at attention ready to get his stake at the right moment. Suddenly, a bullet flew clean through head, sending her plummeting face down to the grass. A blood pool surrounded the former assailant and as she fell Lycretes appeared in her stead.

"Did you miss me?" Lycretes asked his friend.

"More than you know. Its good to see you…My Lord"
