Ph34rbunny: ANOTHER UPDATE! WOOOO!

Nakia: It's only cause her knee is injured.

Ph34rbunny:…I can write your end.

Nakia:….

Dante: -grabs ph34rbunny- I could give you a Happy Ending babe.

Vergil: Let's just move along shall we?

"I'm surprised you haven't tried to get rid of me yet Arkham." Nakia was stuck walking behind Arkham yet ahead of Vergil. She would have preferred behind Vergil for more time to stare at his ass. That's right she admitted it! Well not out loud, but hey that was a big step for her! Flare would be so proud. Speaking of, she hadn't heard from her in a while. She tried to feel for her with her mind but only felt a wall. Probably the Tem-ni-guru since they were getting closer to the core of the tower. Well that sounded logical at least. Her train of thought was halted as she bumped into something that smelled just awful. Suppressing a gag Nakia took a step back to see a glaring scar faced man. "What?"

"Why bother asking a question if you don't care to hear the answer?" She could tell it was rhetorical from the lightly masked spite in every word. She scoffed ignoring her gut instinct to kill him now. She needed him to usher the story forward. If Flare was going to damage the story then Nakia would have to be the one to preserve it…which meant less fun.

"Sorry, I am not accustomed to listening to…lesser demons." His growl was oh so satisfying as she tried not to show her pleasure on her face. Her blue eyes dared him to try something as the man huffed and retreated to a nearby wall pressing a stone inward and spinning it a full turn to the right. The wall gave way to a hidden corridor which at the far end seemed to open to an oddly familiar hall. Her eyes had turned violet from trying to see the hall's end, but it started to make sense how they were able to cover so much ground despite Dante running through the tower's maze.

"Ladies first." His sarcasm was not masked this time around as he bowed towards Nakia. Confident her powers would come through for her she proudly strode into the hallway, her black boots sending a click echo with every step. The sound was muffled with the sound of the wall shutting behind the trio as she led the way ahead. 'She's getting too close but leaving her behind would add to much aid to Dante's side. Though Vergil seeing use in her oracle abilities is a problem if he is to be my slave. She could see it coming or may already know of my plan. I'll just have to keep them from being alone with that…..'

"Arkham how far?" The man was thankful that the devil did not turn to demand an update on their progress or he would have seen his face snap up from the devil's rear. He flipped open his pink bounded reference book as he flipped past the pages with Vergil's name all over it.

"We are close. Let me get the door." He took long strides to pass the blue devil and purple bitch to reach the new hall and large ornate door blocking the way. It had many carvings into the bronze door which had no handles or holes leaving magic to be suspect as its lock. Nakia slowed her pace to try and walk beside Vergil only to hear his footsteps halt behind her as the hidden corridor returned to its concealed state. Curiosity won out as she foolishly turned to see his face only to meet Yamato mid-turn.

"I suggest that you not try to leave." He pressed Yamato ever so slightly forward breaking the skin on her neck as the blood trailed down towards her barely exposed cleavage staining the sheer fabric of the dress. "You may not like the method by which you are allowed to leave." Nakia found herself trying to keep her drool from passing her lips and she felt her desire for the devil grow.

"People once cried out in fear of this tower." Vergil sheathed his blade and walked closer to Arkham leaving Nakia frozen in place pouting. That bastard always had to ruin her moments with the evil brother. ALWAYS! She started to plot how she would end him with a spoon while passing her right hand over the small wound. The blood vanished, as well as the stain, leaving only the thin scar. "Temen-ni-guru, a foundation that brought out fear." Nakia was quick to fall in line between the boys as not to further any thoughts of betrayal from her love interest. "Fear…" As the scared man chuckled aloud both Vergil and Nakia seemed cautious and concerned about their third member as he closed the pink book continuing with his monologue. "Yes, fear. Can't you feel it?" On cue the door slowly opened, the smell of stale air rushing past them as Arkham stepped aside so Vergil had a clear view. "The rage and agonies of the people. Those who were confined here. With their desires for Evil being unfulfilled. It was all because Sparda slammed the door to the Demon World in their faces." Vergil shot the man a stern glare before walking through the door, abruptly stopping when neither the scarred man nor Nakia followed him.

"What's wrong?" Arkham had turned his attention down the hall behind them which remained dark despite the stone gargoyles holding azure flames in the mouth adorning the walls. He quickly returned his attention to the devil taking a few steps forward.

"Nothing." The reply seemed to satisfy Vergil as both him and Nakia turned to continue past the door, Nakia pausing to let a smug look grace her face just for the turncoat.

"She bothers you that much huh?" The sheer shock at her works was satisfactory as she quickly jogged to reclaim her spot by Vergil's side leaving an obviously mad and suspecting Arkham brooding behind them. Silence fell quickly save for the sound of mister scar face flipping pages in his book. The worn decorative rugs in this hall helped muffle the rhythmic sounds of their shoes hitting the stone floor from enticing Nakia to rest. She was starting to feel slightly jealous of the rest she knew Flare would have received while waiting for Dante to wake.

"Are you limited?" The abrupt question from the devil almost made Nakia jump as his velvet voice was hushed for only their ears. She was curious as to why he kept his voice low to avoid Arkham hearing, but the vagueness of the question left her blinking dumbly at the hot white haired male beside her. He pointed towards his own next as she felt an imaginary light bulb go off in her head. She wanted to keep it in case she got sent back so she had proof she didn't just dream it all in a sugar coma again, but she couldn't tell him that. Maybe just a little truth could not hurt the story.

"As a reminder." His scowl told her that her answer was not sufficient as she spied his hand moving towards his beloved katana. A small smile escaped her control as she traced the mark. "To behave." She added a wink and inwardly jumped for joy as emotionless Vergil raised a single eyebrow ever so slightly before the normal brood replaced it as he continued down the hallway. Flare's lessons in seduction, though it was really more of her telling about her latest triumph when Nakia tried to tune it out to save her poor virgin ears, were paying off! Well she hoped. It could very well add more marks to her being crazy than being desirable. Vergil was after power, the power to match and surpass hi father. To have no shadows left to eclipse him. She would have to find a way to best him to impress the devil without appearing to be a future threat. 'Why are men so complicated?'

~"Because you like the ones too busy with their quest for evil power to notice a nice pair of legs."~

~"Flare?"~ She felt only the wall again as she tried to reach out to her best friend. Was that really Flare? Or was it her mind playing tricks on her? She sighed causing a look from Arkham who halted beside her.

"I'll take the rear." She stuck out her tongue at him as she sauntered after the handsome devil who didn't even pause as his companions grew further behind him.

'Yea I bet you want the rear so you can sneak off for alter ego time. And I swear Vergil switches from "I'm watching you breathe" to "I could care less if you take a wrong turn" fast than I can flip channels. He's lucky he is so damn evil and sexy.' Sure she was inwardly complaining, but so far this whole experience was being stowed away in her memories as best day ever.

Vergil: Where's Date?

Nakia: See that censor bar?

-Giant censor bar in the distance-

Vergil: If only he could show more prudence.

Nakia:-mumbles- If only you could show less.

Vergil: -unsheathes Yamato-

Nakia: I said I agreed! Sheesh! Read and Review!

Censor bar: Jai ne!
