Capcon owns DMC and all of it's characters. I only own OC, any names or location that are similar to upcoming games to the series is pure coincidence.

Chapter 3

Lana's PoV

I bit my fingernails at Haven. I had looked high an low for Anara from the local places she could be to even her childhood places. My palms were sweaty as I was hesitant to call it in... I just wasn't ready to give up yet. She was completely off the grid. A tracker demon came back to me as I was eager for an answer.

"I am sorry" He said in demonic tongue.

"Fuck!" I pushed the things glasses from the counter as they all crashed to the floor. The rose in the tea wasn't strong enough to enter any illusions and the boss will have my neck if I don't think of some thing quick.

"There was a scent that left a trail with Anara's"

I looked at him again as he looked uneasy.

"Was it a lesser?" I gripped the bar "I will kill it"

"Do you know of the story of the legendary dark knight Sparda?" He said as I looked at him like he was stupid.

"Of course I do" I said "How is it even relevant to this search?"

"Well the blue one took her"

"What?" I said stunned.

"I am sure I am not mistaken that it's his blood I smelled"

"Where is he?"

"I wish I could tell you, Mistress... But it ended in the middle of the city with hers"

"Take me there now!" I shouted as the trackers got frantic.

"Yes mistress"

The little has flown from her nest and Ill be the one to bring her back alive or...dead.

Vergil's PoV

I watched her on a camera I carefully concealed in the room making sure she wasn't capable of escaping from underneath me. Two months I had to babysit this broad, it drove me nuts... She had finished eating the food she said she clearly didn't want and walked to the bookshelf that was in the corner of the room. She picked one and skimmed through it, she walked over to the bed and held it open in the palm of her hand as the book slowly levitated and the demonic language sprung up from the book; spiraling around her and translated every word into English. Amazing... She watched around in awe reading every word then there was a loud thud. Anara jumped as the book fell to the bed I admit it startled me too. I rushed out of the room as she poked her head out of hers.

"Stay inside" I ordered as she closed the door and locked it. That caused me to raise a brow. Did she question her security before? I grabbed Yamato and ran down the stairs. That moment I was one with my surroundings, listening to everything down to a pin dropping. That's when I heard a arrow wiz past me. I looked at it and towards to the direction it came.

That's when I saw her... Kasha a trickster demon. She had a black bob haircut and bangs that fell above her eyebrows. She had the body of a typical marksmen, strong arms, strong legs to be agile like a fox. I sheathed my sword and shook my head.

"What are you doing here?" I asked as she smiled devilishly.

"I smell a strong scent" Kasha said sniffing the air "Roses... My favorite"

"Off limits" I pointed at her as she held her hands up.

"One bite, I'll put her to sleep"

"So you can take her? Fat chance, plus I've already paid up for your help" I grunted.

"I'm not the one who wants to take her... There are an army of trackers standing by the end of your trail. Once this illusion is up, you're on your own" She said as I laughed.

"Yamato would be fully charged and they will be obliterated on site"

"I admire you're strength Son of Sparda" She grinned "I thought I would stop by and ask if you can make an exception for that sweet blood but I guess we aren't that close, oh well"

She turned to leave.

"Wait..."

She turned around.

"I need one more favor for you" I asked as she raised a brow.

"Can you make an outside to this illusion?"

"From your memories?" She asked

"Yes..."

"That would cost extra..." She placed a finger to her chin "For her, it's on me"

"Thank you..."

"If you change your mind on having her blood let me know" She winked at me.

"Will do..."

"I never had Succubus blood before" She licked her lips.

"What?" I raised my brow.

"You can't sense it?"

"No..."

"Her blood is stinking up this place" inhaled deeply "Very intoxicating"

I sniffed the air "I can't smell anything"

"You dog you, don't lie to me, you're just keeping her for your sexual needs" She winked at me

"Don't be ridiculous... I'm trying to get rid of her as soon as possible"

I button on her jacket with a sigil on it begun blinking.

"Shit, I gotta run..." She snapped her fingers as there was a invisible wave rushing through the manor. I felt it being pulled from my memory leaving me a little light headed. I braced on the nearest wall and held my head.

"Don't be an exhibitionist now" She winked before vanishing.

I blinked hard before regaining my composure. I heard birds singing from outside as I walked out the front doors. There it was the wide acres that my childhood home stood on. That's when I looked up to see her head out the window smiling at the breeze and the warm sun. I cleared my throat as she looked down startled.

"Is this real?" She said as I nodded she poked her head back in and in a split second she ran outside like a little child. "I know it's not real but it feels real"

"It's an illusion from my memories..."

"I wish I had a memory like this" She sighed causing me to frown.

A sparrow flew to her feet as she held her hand out. It jumped up into her hands chirping. She laughed petting its head with her finger. That's when I looked down and Yamato glowed brighter than before... It was mirroring her emotions. When she happy Yamato charges faster. Anara looked back at me.

"Vergil come here" She shouted as the sparrow flew off. She watched it as a swarm of monarch butterflies flew past her. Her attention diverted to the sight. I walked to her as she pointed them at the short distance. I grabbed her arm to face me, I looked into her brown eyes.

At that moment I was warped into another place. I looked around, I was in a grotty apartment complex where loud rock music blasted and drugs were all over the tables along with beer and other alcoholic substances. There were drugged up girls and guys groping and hugging them. What a disgusting place... What was it?

"Get off of me!" I heard a familiar voice scream. "Get the fuck off of me!"

I rushed into the room seeing Anara's younger self pleading as two guys held her arms down.

"Don't worry sweetheart you won't feel a thing" One of the grunts said injecting a substance in her arms and then putting another needle in her arm extracting her blood. She let out a blood curdling scream as tears streamed down her face. I couldn't watch but something compelled me to.

"That a good girl..." He patted her head as she became docile.

I was sucked back to the illusion as she stared at me with blank eyes and fell to the ground.

"Anara!" I swiftly her up as she regained herself.

"You saw it" She looked at me with tear filled eyes.

"What happened?"

"Like I said I wish I had memories like yours" She pushed away from me and ran into the manor. I think I made a mistake.
