Chapter 21: Memories

"So you saw it to." You said.

Dante nodded. "I'm sorry for-"

"Don't…let's just keep moving. You're okay now right?"

He nodded again and stood up pulling you up with him.

"There has to be a reason I'm seeing this. At least I know you saw it to that time; that means I'm not crazy." You leaned your head on his chest. You couldn't help the uneasy feeling you had due to his close proximity. Normally you wouldn't mind in the slightest, but then again he did just loose control of his demon and almost killed you.

You shook your head to clear away those thoughts.

"You mean you're not delusional." Dante corrected. "Willingly running around a demonic tower isn't your typical activity."

You felt a small smile twitch at the corner of your lips but forced you expression to remain blank. "Don't tell me YOU of all people are insinuating that I am mentally unstable."

"You said it not me."

You didn't have to look at him to tell he was smirking now. "You started it! Besides, you're just as crazy for agreeing to take me here!" you protested.

"I guess you're right. Man, do I suck at planning first dates."

"I forgive you." You laughed and turned around to open the door. There was a long stone bridge and at a first glance you could tell that if you somehow happened to fall off despite the metal railing, it would be a very long way down.

Devils began walking down the hall as soon as you stepped through.

Dante drew his sword and the torches on the railings lit with a strange blue fire.

Noises echoed throughout the hall. If you didn't know any better you'd think it was a horse. As if on cue, a horse charged out of the darkness knocking demons off into the darkness below as it went. The horse was unusually big and had blue fire for a mane and tail, as well as small flames on his hooves. You glanced behind it and saw the black carriage it was pulling.

"Talk about Horse Power." Dante commented.

You smiled despite part of you wanting to about face and walk in the other direction.

The horse came to a halt and Dante stepped forward. "Playing chicken with a horse huh? Fair enough…"

The horse stamped its feet anxiously as if accepting Dante's challenge.

"You should stand back."

You didn't need to be told twice! You backed up and Dante and the horse charged forward. Dante jumped at the last minute and stabbed the horse in the shoulder. It stood up on its back legs and shook Dante off before charging at you. You let out a small yelp and dove out of the way and the horse kept going. You got to your feet and stared into the darkness expecting the horse to come out the same way, just as the centipede demon did when it went through its tunnels.

More horse sounds echoed and the horse ran out of the darkness behind you. This caught you and Dante off guard. Dante started fighting the horse and you were about to join in until you saw the cracks on the floor beneath him and the horse get bigger.

"Dante the horse it to heavy the floor is going to collapse!" You yelled running forward. Dante tried to back up but the floor caved and chunks of it fell into the abyss along with you, Dante, and the demonic horse.

You were falling for a good minute before you hit what you assumed to be the floor. It looked like you were in the ruins of the coliseum.

"You know I'm seriously tired of this tower and its surprises." You groaned out. You thought about moving, but at the moment it hurt to even breathe. You were surprised your body could handle all the strain it was put through since you entered this place.

You heard Dante chuckle. "First chicken, now Gladiator. This just keeps getting better and better. To bad there's nobody here to enjoy the show!"

You felt the floor shake underneath you and the horse began to gallop. You sat up and came to an unfortunate realization. You weren't on the floor you were on the carriage! The horse made a sharp turn nearly making you slid off. You gripped the side of the carriage to avoid being thrown off.

You leaned over the side to try and catch a glimpse of who might be in the carriage but arrows began rapidly firing out of both sides. The horse continued to try and run over Dante despite what ever amount of pain each bullet he shot caused it.

Dante sped up and dodged every arrow. You had one hand grip a part of the carriage and carefully gripped your shotgun which you had managed to strap to your waist previously. you tried to aim at the horse's head but it made another sharp right turn and this time you were sent flying off the top of the carriage. You rolled almost three feet unable to stop due to your momentum.

The horse turned and doubled back to throw off Dante's aim. It was headed straight at you at first, but it swerved out of the way before it could hit you. You sighed in relieved until the carriage began shooting arrows at you on its way to run over Dante.

You sat up and your eyes widened. Dante threw his sword and it flew passed you blocking the arrows as it went. It slid across the ground and you ran to get it. The horse saw you and decided to try to run you over next. You sprinted to get to it and slid out of the way of the horse.

The sword was much heavier than you expected. You lost your balance and nearly fell over! Dante ran passed you grabbing his sword along the way.

The horse charged at Dante but he expected it. He charged at it the same way he had on the bridge but this time he cut its legs. The horse knelt panting for breath, now it had no choice but to give up. Just like every other huge and exceptionally strong demon, its body disappeared leaving behind nothing but its "soul".

You stood up, brushing yourself off as you waited curiously for what kind of weapon he would receive next.

The soul levitated over to Dante as usual but instead of turning into a weapon, it went straight into his chest. Dante now had a faint blue aura coming off him in the shape of flames.

"What happened?" You asked walking up to him.

"I'm not sure." He responded simply.

"Well, do you feel any different?"

He nodded. "Yeah. If I didn't before I definitely feel hungry now."

You shook your head with a small smile. "Tell you what, whenever we get out of here, pizza's on me."

"I'll hold you to that." He smirked.

You both made your way to the only exit oblivious to the part of the ceiling that was about to cave in on you. A few chunks of the ceiling fell and neither of you had time to get out of the way.

You gasped and shut your eyes automatically.

"Huh."

You opened your eyes and saw a chunk of the ceiling just a few inches away from crushing you.

"It stopped." You deadpanned.

"Go figure." Dante said nonchalantly as he reached up and pushed a piece of debris up. It floated up and you both continued walking. As soon as you both left the room the rest of the debris fell behind you.

[A/N] Me: I had a hard time uploading this because my adorable and annoying kitten kept walking across the keyboard. Lawl.
