Chapter 8: Is That a Tibetan Dagger in your Pocket...
As the three began walking to search for Nathan's friend Chloe, the adventurer looked towards the girl Kat.
"Hey, Kat, how'd you get here in the first place?"
"Oh!" Kat responded as she faintly blushed before explaining. "I was training under my mentor Gade when he mentioned some sort of place where one could gain more power, or the ability to control that power."
"A power to control... could she be talking about the Cintimani Stone?" Drake thought as Kat's astral feline companion Dusty was pawing at Dante's spiky hair.
"Easy on the spikes, furball." Dante grimaced as he was reloading his pistols, keeping an eye out for any enemies planning on ambushing them. The group silently tailed a guard to a hole in a brick wall leading further into the city as Drake snapped the brute's neck to silence him from attracting attention. Dante however was less than pleased with the silent approach, gesturing that he was going to lead ahead and take out the guards.
"Fine, but do it quietly." Kat warned before the deafening sounds of gunfire punctuated the city grounds where Dante went to.
"Get him!" one soldier shouted angrily. "Shoot him right between the eyes and bring whoever else is with him, dead or alive! They'll lead us to Drake."
"Come and get me then, losers!" Dante proclaimed as he blasted at them before a large armored car began to fire at him, wounding the demon slayer.
"Dante!" Drake cried out as he ran forward to confront the soldiers. "Leave those guys alone. It's me you want!"
The armored car's turret gunner prepared to fire, but it never got the chance as a RPG shot destroyed the engine and sent the soldier flying into the concrete ahead.
"Who-?" Kat and Drake asked as they saw their savior arrive as Chloe Frazer.
"Drake..." Chloe laughed. "Why is it I'm always the one saving your ass?"
"Well, it's an ass worth saving." Drake replied. "So you found a way to the Phurba temple?"
"Well, not exactly, but we'll need to search for it from the highest building around here."
"Excuse moi, but I saw a hotel nearby at the center of town." Kat suggested.
"That's great!" Drake replied, before Kat explained that it was surrounded by Lazerivic's men. "Just got even less great."
"We'll need someone to stay behind though and keep the soldiers from following us." Chloe told the two in hopes that they could keep from being thwarted.
"I'll do it." Dante said as he got up from the ground and brushed off the blood from his jacket.
"But what about your wounds?" Kat asked.
"Hah. It's gonna take more than bullets to stop me. Go ahead, and I'll take care of them. I've got some unfinished business here anyways."
"Okay then. Good luck, man. Hope you find what you're looking for." Drake said as he and the rest of the group bid him farewell.
"Same to you." Dante replied as he went to stand guard and Drake went around to find a way in for the rest of the group.
There goes another chapter. I hope you all enjoyed this update, and keep an eye out for what's coming up next. Remember to keep reviewing!
