The underground maze of the Order's missile silo is more complex than they all imagined. Consisting of several rooms and floors, base is a city on its own.

"This is Burton, we are approaching the lower levels section 3, we are already cleared the section 1 and 2." The radio crackled.

"Copy that we are moving in the war room meet us there." Lady said as they move in shooting at any mercenaries that comes her way. Trish and Dante are right behind him .just as they turned into the corner, they saw three Bianco Angelos charging at them with Lances poised to impale. Dante simply charge head on, carrying the Agni and Rudra. In a blink of an eye, he sliced up the Lances and destroyed the glowing chest piece of the armor; their weakspot.

Clearing the knights, they move in further only to greeted by a wall of gunfire and bullets on the next corridor. The mercenaries were waiting for them, they got two gun emplacements.

"There no way you can make through!" one them shouted.

"Yeah just shoot yourself and save us the trouble!" the other said.

Trish simply smirked as she reached out under her leather jacket and produce a special Allied prototype cluster grenade. She motioned Dante and Lady to get ready.

Sending a small jolt of electricity to the grenade to cook it, she pulled the pin and threw it at the enemy's defensive wall. It made a clanking sound as it bounces off the floor and rolling dead stop at the tripod of their gun emplacement.

"GRENADE!" one of them shouted before a loud deafening explosion followed by a barrage of small explosions then the shouts of men in pain. The gun emplacement exploded as its magazine blows off.

Lady and Dante charge in guns blazing at the remaining mercenaries who are foolish enough to still fend them off. Dante took a bullet to the shoulder but he shrugged it off as if was nothing. Trish looked concern though.

"Guys what's your status, we are already at the war room's blast doors" Trish called her radio.

"We are approaching in, wait for us" Nero said over the line.

"Commin over, just don't bust the door yet" Burton replied over the sound of gunfire.

"Well, the others are busy I reckoned." Lady said.

"Slowpokes" Dante simply said with crossing arms. Looking at the door, he added "Is there any way to get out of the war room besides this door?"

"I guess not, the base's main function is also a 'one last stand' type in case of a breach. One way in one way out" Lady spoke while looking at the base's map diagram.

"Better than running away, right. I just hope they put up a fight." Trish said, flipping her blonde hair freely, Dante was mesmerize on how beautiful she is right now.

"Wow, I never knew how much you look gorgeous right now." He said dreamily, the she devil just send a jolt at him.

"Stay focus Dante, there is still time left to do that." she warned with a stern look.

"Right..." he rubbed his arm awkwardly. Lady just shook her head and trying stop herself from face palming. Dante has no chance of making a change.

"Nero watch out!" Vergil said as he send a blue halo sword passing towards his sons head. Nero just simply dodges his father's summoned swords. The blue sword impaled the helmet of a Bianco Angelo behind Nero.

"Thanks"

Vergil just stared at him rather coldly and said "Watch your back always Nero" in a cold and serious tone.

Nero groaned and kept slashing at the remaining knights are his side. One by one, pieces of armor and souls being released is increasing by the numbers. Vergil sends a powerful combo of his summoned swords and his Judgement cuts against an incoming group of Bianco Angelos. Unlimited machine gun barrage of his summon swords impaled the thick artificial demonic armor of each knight. Nero did the same though mixing it with combination of his devil bringer arm.

Grabbing and tossing a handful he threw some of them towards his father who quickly leaps into the air gave a rapid slash while performing a powerful air dash forward. the poor knights fell the ground in little pieces like Swiss cheese.

For Vergil this was child's play. Some of his attacks didn't need to involve the mighty blade of the Yamato. His strength is adequate enough to smash the weak armor apart with the Yamato's scabbard alone. It was a pity that he didn't have the Beowulf gauntlet and boots on but where's the challenge on that?

For Nero, he was slightly breaking a sweat. true he may have the sheer power of the incarnation from his mother, but his rather brash actions are causing way more energy that it should be exerted. Vergil noticed this and made quick mental note to teach him how to distribute energy in battle. Still though, sheer power of will makes him go further, after hearing his tale during the Sanctus incident before from Kyrie herself, he confirms this idea then and there.

His thoughts were cut short as a squad of the Order's hired guns and soldiers moved it guns blazing and swords ready. Nero went head on with the Order's member with his Red Queen. Revving up to the max, the heated red blade went cutting through the ordinary yet specially designed swords like it was made of paper. Blood and guts flew everywhere as Nero's hot blade went coursing through the bodies of his hapless enemies. Armor shatter, blood spewing, and screams echoed everywhere.

Vergil was still busy with remainder of the knights, then more reinforcements arrived. Giving a hailstorm of bullets, another squad of Bianco Angelo appeared on the other side of the corridor they were in, completely boxing them in.

The father and son stood back to back again each other, eyes never leaving their opponents that was directly facing them. Vergil just readied his hands over the hilt of the Yamato, blue halo swords poised around him and Nero ready to launch. The younger half-demon points his blue rose with his left while revving the Red Queen with his demonic arm.

"Steady, Nero..." Vergil whispered.

All of the sudden, screams of agony and horror echoed around the room as the mercenaries were send flying to the walls, blood spewing all over the place. Gunfire soon followed but with more scream of death and dying. The Bianco Angelos were caught of guard by a moment as they were distracted by the sudden attack from behind.

That split moment, gave way to Vergil to make a move. Drawing out the Yamato faster than a blink of an eye, he sends them all with an powerful explosive Judgement Cuts followed by a powerful incarnation from both his hands. Two energy hands shoved the knights towards the opposite end of the wall and he made sure he pinned them before sending a rain of his summoned swords from him and Nero; one blue halo swords, the other was a spinning blade. Soon of all of the knights are in pieces as their auras dissipate.

The last of the mercenaries dies at the feet of Dante, his Ivory was smoking from the gun fight earlier on his way to get to them. he smirk upon seeing the two.

"You're kinda late, figured you need help"

"We picked the wrong room I guess" Vergil spat coldly then added "Nothing we can't handle." He began to walk pass Dante without another glance back.

Dante and Nero caught up with him in a flash. The younger of the twins of Sparda then shine himself in front of his other twin. "Heh, you really need my help Vergil, after all I kicked your ass twice remember so I'm stronger"

"Well, I did figure out how to get here, so I'm smarter."

"I manage to capture the heart of the most perfect demoness, so I'm good looking..." he snorted and chinned up for smugness.

Nero sighed this was to be expected, but he did not expect his father's next words:

"True you and Trish became a couple, but as I said before Dante: Might Controls Everything, I have a bigger dick!" Vergil spat with pride, smug, and confidence. He then added, "If you want proof, here's Nero."

Dante was utterly speechless so does Nero but the former was more shock than he'd be ever in his life. those words were not from his brother. Knowing him to be this cold, heartless, and deadly, he thought that Vergil was swooping down to his level (Now that he's a lower level than him). Dante never thought he would go that far to take a page from his book.

Dumbfounded he stopped in his tracks and looked a Nero who is also in shock. but the latter kept moving without uttering a word, avoiding the trail of dead mercenaries, knights and the Order's soldiers alike.

The trek back towards the others was silent and a longer one since the three of them never spoke. Vergil sure made a mark on his brother on that one, he smiled inwardly. This is something he can dwell on to finally payback to Dante, still though he will still cut him with his sword if he got a chance. Maybe after this surreal war, he will.

Upon reaching back, Burton and his men are already cutting their way across the hinges of the blast door. Vergil rolled his eyes, he can crush the door with his powers and his sword alone but he decided to let them to the work for now, after all he knew that Burton and his men took the easiest route possible. No one can blame them though, they are not used to fighting demons and non-human beings like the people around them.

After drilling the hinges, one of the Allied commandos placed a thermite explosive inside it while the other one rigged it in the detonator. The other two and Burton himself strategically placed explosives on the sides of the doors. When everything is set, they all stand back and readied their weapons. the soldiers took both sides with grenades in hand, Burton gave the countdown with his fingers.

"Here we go!" Dante said as he drew out the Rebellion. Nero revved up the Red Queen, Trish readied the Sparda in her hands with electricity flowing through it, Lady loaded her rocket launcher, and Vergil simply craned his neck and held the Yamato in attack mode.

The hinges of the blast door suddenly gave a shower of sparks as the superheated explosive melted the supports and hinges from the inside of the thick door. It lasted a good minute before dying out as fast as it grow to life. Then Burton pressed a button.

"Knock, knock!" he said before...

BOOM!

The door exploded and the force sended it inside the war room with such force that several knights and mercenaries were crush by it. smoke filled the remains and immdiatly the Allied commandos tossed both flashbangs and special cluster grenades inside the room.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

Barrage of explosions and screams of pain, and death echoed inside, shouting of orders in Russian indicated that the Order was in confusion. This is the opportunity they are waiting for. And with that, they moved it, Burton and his men quickly cleared the right side and Dante and the others moved in from the left. The three white haired men, dealt the Bianco Angelos first while they are in a state of confusion.

They never knew what hit them.

Trish threw the Sparda in a boomerang fashion, cutting down rows of defensive mercenaries and destroying their cover as well allowing Burton to gun them down mercilessly. She then threw it again and drew out the Luce and Ombra to send a barrage of electric powered bullets at the incoming reinforcements.

Lady supported the Allied commandos and uses the Kalina Ann to blow up a turret on the center of the room. everything was going well until one of the Allied commando suddenly flew backwards and pinned in the wall with a gold lance in his chest. He quickly died at the attack since it hit his heart directly. Lady was shocked at the attack and turned to see five Gold armoured Alto Angelos closing on them.

"Guys we got the goldies coming in!" she said as she, Burton and the rest of the commando began shooting at them. the bullets do little effect as they were protected with a demonic barrier.

Dante, Nero and Vergil intercepted them before they could even impale another soldier. They wer good fighters as they even stand Vergil's attacks. Despite that, they can't block his Judgement cuts but only do minor damage. Two of them kept him busy.

Dante uses the Agni and Rudra to perform maximum combos as possible but all of the were blocked. He narrowed his eyes as he tried a dirty blow he learned from Trish. He feinted his attack to send the gold knight off balance before slashing him at the lower regions, this force the knight to use its wings and fly.

"Oh, yeah I forgot, you bastards can fly." He remarked.

"You don't say Dante!" Vergil replied as he jumped and used his air trick to perform an air slash on the flying knights he was fighting. He tried to grab him with incarnation but the other knight threw a lance at him, impaling him in the shoulder. He growled in pain as he lost the concentration. This gave the knights the opportunity to imapale him with more lances and swords. They were surprise on how many weapons they have until they see it.

These five Alto Angelos were no similar to those in Fortuna before, these were greatly modified. They have the ability to project and create weapons out of thin air. Something that was never seen before, even in the demon world; no know demons can do what ever they just did.

"How the heck they can DO THAT!?" Nero said as he dodges another incoming spear and lance as the knights formed a defensive wall behind another large door, rapidly throwing spears, lances, and swords at them like a machine gun.

"Beats me kid!" Dante said as he took cover.

Vergil manages to pull out the lance off him and took cover beside Nero. "Never... seen... that kind of skill before" he whizzed out as he felt tired and held on his wounds. Vergil flooped down on the floor, breathing heavily.

"Hey are you alright?" Nero asked his father as he sat down beside him. Dante was shocked, he never though his brother would be brought down by a simple stab of a lance, nothing could beat his brother except him and Mundus (He knows that Vergil lost with Mundus resulting becoming Nelo Angelo).

"I'm fine, but the wounds... should heal by now... how come it doesn't heal!"

The others arrived, also took cover as the swords and spears kept falling.

"The hell was that?" Burton asked as he eyed the number of swords, and other weapons sticking in the floor"

"This is getting bizarre" one of the commandos asked "I didn't signed up for this"

"Quiet, Soldier! This not what we signed up for, to fight and to win!" Burton snapped back at him but his eyes remained glued on the view. "Any ideas what is this magic?"

"I have no idea... never seen this kind of ability before nor known any demon who knows how to use it."

Suddenly a old Russian accent voiced muffled a an armor. "to tell you frankly this is never been used by any demon in the demon realm. This is an originally skill develop by your truly"

"Show yourself, coward!" Nero shouted as he supported Vergil in sitting position. Dante glared and uses his trickster to get his brother.

"What happend?" he asked.

"The lance that pierced him negated his healing abilities. This is bad" Nero replied in a angry voice, his demon arm glowed bright blue.

"Don't bother about the lance kid, it will do no good for him now. You will only heal him if you defeated me!" this time the speaker of the voice stepped out from behind the double doors. A figure wearing a gold armor similar to the five Alto Angelos but with a different design, his glowing chest piece is shaped inverted triangle and he holds a golden sword in his hands, the face plate of his helmet lifted up to reveal the face no other than Dimitri himself, leader of the Order of the Sword in Russia and the perpetrator of this war. or so they thought.

The Alto Angelos backed away as he stepped forward to reveal himself further and spread his hands as if he was addressing a million people with a magnificient speech. Trish, Lady and the Allied soldiers glared, this was not an enemy to be go easy with. Trish however felt a little guilty, a part of her really underestimated Dimitri, now she knows that this Russian is expecting them from the start.

It's a trap.

They walked right into it by taking the bait of killing three million people with nuclear weapons. The though made her blood boil, angry with herself, and at Dimitri. She know now that he must die once and for all.

"Like my show? I was told that you are coming here to get me after a made that little show of glowing proportions" he said before giving a small laugh. "People should be taught a lesson first before subjecting to the new world order we are going to give them. Give you"

"Yeah like we will heed, we will finish this here and now...!" Nero said as he stood up and face Dimitri with heated Red Queen in his hands.

"Nero don't!" Trish said as she stepped in to stop him.

"Bad move kid! I should stay back if I were you...!" Dimitri said as a golden wall like portal appeared behind him and several different kind of swords appeared, all pointing at Nero.

"So long kid!" the swords went rushing towards at Nero who growled and readied himself for the fate awaited him.

"Noooo!" Vergil gasped as he tried to stand up, eyes focusing on Nero. His devil bringer still glowing blue as he prepared to attack.

Then seemingly, time stood still.
