Kat threw the gun to the ground in frustration, cursing at it like it was alive. Dante was relieved to see that his guns only worked for him. She quickly stood up and ran through the brothers as if they were not even there.
"Kat wait!" Dante yelled running after her.
She ran as fast as her feet could possibly carry her, stumbling every so often. It felt like the world was crashing down on her, leeching the life out of everything in its path. Kat burst through the double doors of the stairs and began to jog up the stairwell. Dante was only about 12 feet away but he knew that was too far.

"Please Kat, I only want to help!" He huffed, completely out of breath. She burst through the door of the roof and made ran to the edge.

"Please don't do this!" He screamed, tears now falling freely. Kat stopped at the edge and turned to face him. Her brown hair fluttered in the wind as she stared at the sky. There was about 10 feet between them and only 4 feet between her and the edge.

"Kat let me help" Dante pleaded, taking a step towards her. She took a step back in response, silently threatening him. He held up his hands defensively and took a step away from her.

"I know what happ-"

"You have no idea what happened to me." She growled.

"You're right, I don't but I want to know." He said quietly.

"What do you want to know? How they raped me? How they made me like it? It was horrible Dante, worse than you can ever imagine. Mundus was furious about Lilith and guess who he took it out on? He said when he kills you he is coming back for me and going to make me wish I was dead." Kat shot, clenching her hands into fists. Dante stared at her with caring eyes, longing to take her pain away.

"We can get through this together, but you have to trust me." He spoke, taking a slow step towards her. She didn't take a step back and let him get closer.

"It will never end." She mumbled. He took a step towards her and she flinched.

"Let me help you." Dante breathed squatting down in front of her. Everything finally made sense to her, she had to do what was right. Kat leaned into him, letting tears free fall. He pulled her into his chest, hoping to take it all away. Dante helped her up and turned to face her, cupping her face in his hands.

"You are going to be okay, I promise." She smiled up at him and quickly wrapped her arms around him.

"I love you." She said.

"I love you too."

That's when it happened, when he regretted making a promise at all. A large shock wave was sent through the city, knocking the two of them to the ground.

"Dante what's happening!" Kat screamed. Dante searched for the source but could only see smoke and debris in the air.

"I don't know." He called. Suddenly Mundus threw him into the ground, like he was nothing but a doll. Dante grunted as he tried to stand back up.

"You make a mess of my city, murder my mistress and child and just think you can get away with it." Mundus growled grabbing Dante by the collar.

"Don't hurt him!" Kat cried. Demons appeared next to her and grabbed her arms. They pulled on her arms, making her kneel.

"First revenge for Lilith." Mundus chuckled. More demons appeared around Dante, holding him back. Mundus slowly walked over to Kat, a sickening smile plastered to his face.

"How's my little toy doing?" He asked, amusement tainting his voice.

"Fuck you." She spat. Mundus laughed, slapping her across the face. Dante struggled against the demon, wishing he could rip the man's head off.

"Leave her out of this!"

"But where the fun be in that?" He laughed. Deep down, Dante knew he was powerless against Mundus like when he was a child. Mundus held his hand above Kat just like that night, the night he watch the same man murder his mother.

"Take me instead. You don't want her, you want me! I'm the one that did it, make me suffer!" Dante yelled.

"Now while it would be fun to accept your offer, I have unfinished business here." Mundus finished, rolling up the sleeves of his white dress shirt.
The demons behind Kat disappeared and she stumbled to the ground. She crawled to Dante, her tears twinkling in the sunlight. His heart raced in his chest as he desperately tried to reach for her. A devious smile was painted on Mundus's face as he grabbed her foot and dragged her away. Kat clawed at the ground searching for something to anchor her.

"Dante!... Dante help me!" She screeched. Mundus flipped her over, so her back was to the ground. The world around Dante slowed as he realized what was going to happen, what he was going to lose.

"No!"
