Dante's POV

"So where did he go?" I awoke to hearing voices. I moaned with pain lightly as I turned and tried to open my eyes.

"Does it look like I know where he went?" A female voice. She sounded familiar.

"I told him to stay close to me. I told him!" I knew that was Nero. I just knew it. Finally, I opened my eyes and saw where I was. This place was dark other than a small fire going in a small fireplace. I saw I was laying on an old tattered couch with a grey blanket on top me. I turned my head and, in fact, saw Nero. He was speaking with a girl I could not see. I knew it was a woman though because the silhouette of her form showed.

"Don't take it so harsh, Oren. I'm sure Etnad didn't mean to get lost." I watched as Oren turned toward me. I sat up as Oren came closer to me. I felt for Ebony but noticed it was not there. Figured as much. I glared at Oren as he finally came in front of me. He was wearing a smirk. Why was he smirking at me? I noticed his devil arm. It glowed a red color instead of blue. That was at least one way to tell if it was Oren or Nero.

I felt pain then. I saw that Oren had grabbed at my hair and was pulling me to stand. I stood just so I wouldn't feel that nagging pain on my head.

"So, he finally awakes." I turned to the female voice. She stood out by the fire, now seen in my eyes. She was Kyrie.

Nero's POV

Dante was holding me gently now. His lips were still pressed against my own. I could not fight him. My own arms had wrapped around his waist. Dante was warm against me. He felt so fragile, yet strong.

Finally, Dante let me go. He looked everywhere but my eyes. This was something he was not cocky about? I let go of Dante. He held onto my hand though.

"Dante…." He pressed his forehead to my shoulder.

"Nero." I felt a small blush creep upon my cheeks. I hadn't heard the old man say my name for a long while. It felt… nice…. This was strange though. Dante was always cocky and was a know it all. He never let this side of him show.

"Nero…." I let go of my hand and started to walk away. I was confused. He stopped and waited for me. What was he trying to do? I followed him outside. He had Rebellion, Ebony, and Ivory with him. Was this the mission that was called?

I watched as Dante walked over to the cracked mirror. My eye's widened as I noticed Dante had no reflection. This was weird. No reflection? I also noticed that the way I had seen Dante, his buckles on his shirt and the way he wore his clothing, all looked like it had in the mirror. My mind was blank, was Dante really who he was, or was this some demon I had never encountered before?

Sorry for taking so long. I would usually go fast but no one was reviewing. I thought that maybe not many people read it and so I was waiting to see if people would read it. I got one more review and thought, well you guys deserve another chapter. This one is not the best and is, of course short. I just had some sort of block for some reason but I finished it. Hope you enjoyed and I am asking for 5 reviews. Maybe 4 again.
