Marshmallows Part II

A week after Dante had left a whole bag of mallows lying about for Vergil to find and eat, Eva noticed him doing it again. Though this time it was a little different. Dante was turning out to be quite the little mischief maker.

Eva sighed as she went to fetch her husband from the study, who was asleep in his chair with a magazine over his face and his feet propped up on the desk. "Anthony!" Eva called and snapped her fingers to get his attention. Sparda shifted and the magazine fell into his lap. He opened one eye to look at her. "Yes?"

Eva sat on the edge of his desk and crossed her legs. Sparda asked and continued to watch her. She looked bored and exasperated as she spoke her next words, "You need to go take care of your children."

Sparda sighed and shut his eye, he knew her tone and what it meant. Dante and Vergil were misbehaving again. "What did they do now?" he asked calmly.

Eva smirked and shook her head wryly. "You remember how Vergil really likes the mallows?" she asked.

Sparda chuckled. "Oh, yeah. That boy would follow a trail of them right off a cliff."

"Exactly." Eva snorted.

Sparda opened both eyes now, visibly startled. "Is that what happened?"

"No, but you're close," Eva pursed her lips and slid off of the desk. Sparda continued to look at her questioningly. "Come on, I'll show you." she said and walked out to the hall. Spada groaned and got up also to follow his wife. She led him into their backyard, out to the biggest oak tree.

There, Dante sat giggling and teasing Vergil, who was hanging upside down from the tree by a rope that was tied around his ankle and screaming his brain out for Dante to let him down.

Sparda looked quite dismayed at the whole spectacle as he turned to Eva. "Oh, babe, you need to stop buying marshmallows before somebody gets killed," Sparda said before jogging over to his children to release and chastise them respectively.

Eva sighed and smiled as she made to go back into the house.
