Chapter 12: First Night of a New Life
Nero gasped at the beauty of the villa. It was lush, green and peaceful. He also noticed that the villa was heavily warded and protected from anything. This place is amazing! He looked at his parents, excitement bubbling up. Mira smiled and gave him a wave and a grin telling him to go ahead. Nero grinned and went to explore while his parents walked slowly, enjoying the walk.
"Verge, this is more beautiful than I remember." Mira whispered.
"Father and I came here and restored it. I even made a few improvements. Does this please you my love?"
"More than words can say." Mira said with a warm smile. "It'll be a shame when it's time to go home…"
"Mira, this is home." Vergil said with a smile and a wave of his hand. Mira gasped.
"Verge…are you serious?!"
"Father gave it to us as a gift. This is to be our home. Mine, yours, Nero's and," He leaned in and kissed her with all he had, withdrawing slowly. "Any other children we may have in the future." He whispered heatedly. Mira shivered in pleasure and anticipation. I would not mind having more but what about Devil May Cry? A tapping brought her back from her thoughts and Vergil smiled still tapping on Yamato.
"This can be used to go anywhere." He said. Mira smiled and nodded. But he already knew that she had a concern. She nor Nero had Yamato but what she didn't know was that Vergil and Sparda had already foresaw that. Nero already had his special gift, but Vergil did not tell him yet. Mira's gift, which he will give her on their wedding night, the Devil Rose, had Yamato's portal attribute. All she would have to do was touch it and think of where to go. In Nero's Devil Bringer, Vergil imbued a bit of Yamato into there as well, all Nero had to do was slash with his claws as he would as if he had the sword itself. He remembered asking why their mother did not had the broach on that day.
"Your mother was not one to put on airs. She wanted to keep it simple for your safety and hers while I was away."
He understood that he and Dante/Mira had gone shopping with their mother that day. Although everyone knew the family, they knew that Eva was not an uppity type. She was always kind and always ready to help those in need. It reminded Vergil of his Mira. She is so much like our mother but she doesn't know that…
Mira walked through the gardens, smiling at the memory of she and Vergil in the garden although she been Dante at the time.
"What are you doing?" A young Vergil asked as he watched his younger twin weave flowers into a crown. Dante looked up and set down his work.
"Making a flower crown for Mother." He answered softly. Vergil quirked an eyebrow and gripped Yamato, silently praying for patience.
"Come, we have sparring to do before Father meets us up."
"I don't want to." Dante said, flooring the older twin. With a smirk Vergil grabbed the crown and ran. Dante screeched and ran after the older, gripping Rebellion. "Vergil! Give it back!"
"No! If you WANT it you're just going to have to TAKE IT! But, you already knew that." The younger twin growled lowly and kicked Vergil in the shin, causing him to yelp and drop the crown. Dante caught it and dashed up a flower tree to finish his work.
Sparda came out finally to find his older son shouting up a tree. He looked up and saw the younger twin in the tree holding a completed and well woven beautiful flower crown. He chuckled and took Dante down.
"So who's this for?" Sparda asked.
"Mother," Dante answered. Sparda chuckled.
"I see, and lovely as it is, you understand that you were supposed to spar with your brother."
"Do I have to?" Dante asked. Sparda nodded.
"Yes, and I know you don't want to but, it is necessary for you to know these things."
"Let's not forget, you KICKED ME!" Vergil thundered. Sparda chuckled as the younger bristled.
"CAUSE YOU'RE A WICKED FUCK!" Dante shouted as he gripped Rebellion. Sparda stepped to the side and the two sparred.
"You seem to have forgotten something," An amused voice said as Mira felt a flower crown placed on her head. She turned and giggled. There was Vergil who smiled warmly just for her. She looked at the crown and smiled. Flowers of red, blue and purple intertwined into a beautiful crown.
"This is beautiful. You remembered…" She whispered as she hugged him. "Thank you and how did you….?"
"I watched you, and I can see why you did these. It's very therapeutic."
"I learned how to make baskets and a few other things."
"Well, that's resourceful." Vergil said as he sat down under a familiar flower tree. Mira laughed softly and placed her hands on her hips playfully.
"Pardon me good sir," She said with a smile, causing Vergil to chuckle and raise an eyebrow. "May I sit with you?"
"Yes you may my good lady, there's plenty of room." He answered. Mira smiled and sat down next to him and he allowed her to rest her head on his shoulder. He held her hand and both of them just watched the sunset and enjoyed the moment until…
"Hey, where's the food?!" Nero cried out, startling the couple and a few birds. Mira laughed as Vergil groaned. Just when I was about to kiss her! I'm going to knock that child into the dust! Mira hugged him and kissed him softly and lovingly. "Don't be too hard him Verge, we lost track of time is all." The elder smiled and chuckled, hugging her close and kissing her back.
"As you wish, I won't go too hard on him."
"Thank you Babe, now let's cook I'm a bit hungry too." With a shared laugh the older devils went inside to cook and eat their first meal in their new home.
After dinner, Vergil cornered Nero and blocked his way with Yamato. Nero tried to go another way but again, there was his father.
"Come with me, Nero." Vergil ordered firmly. "Bring your weapons. " Nero grabbed Blue Rose and Red Queen obediently and after both wished Mira goodbye they walked along a path. A path that Vergil and Mira (as Dante) has walked down many a time. Nero was amazed at the sparring field. It was well tended and prepped.
"Your grandfather and I made some modifications to this field. Your mother and I trained here as children. Now," He unsheathed Yamato and took a stance. "We will train you and future generations to come." Nero revved up Red Queen and lunged. Father and Son clashed and sparred. They even triggered and fought. Not one blade of grass out of place! Both devils felt a presence below them and saw Mira watching them, in full gear and a grin. They looked at each other then dove down, planning to attack. Nero swiped and blinked when the form of his mother vanished.
"BANG! BANG!" Went Ebony and Ivory from above them. Both Nero and Vergil dodged and countered with energy swords and bullets. Mira held up a hand and time slowed as she triggered and kicked them down. The men grunted but stopped in time from kissing dirt. Mira was in full trigger and barraged them with fireballs. Vergil countered with ice and Nero used his father as a stepping stone to fire energy blades. The Ice Sin looked at his son and was about to ask when the younger devil shrugged,
"You're bigger, more of a boost." They both heard the Fire Sin laughing and gliding about taunting. Vergil smirked and started cooling the air. Nero meeped and hugged himself. Both heard Mira yelp and the sky became brighter and the air warmer. Nero sighed then jumped into some water.
"Holy crap, you're both bad I'm out! Great its like a sauna in here." The younger devil coughed when the steam became a dense fog. Nero couldn't see a thing!
The older Sins were locked in battle trying to see who'd come out on top. Vergil was bigger and powerfully built but Mira was quicker. With another laugh she started to tease, trying to grab his tail. Vergil saw this and smirked. Hm, she wants tail play eh? Very well…He wrapped his tail around one of Mira's ankles and pulled her close to him upside down.
"Oh, so not fair Babe." Mira said as she just hung there. She held her hair out of her face and laughed.
"Yield my love," Vergil said with a grin. "It'll be easier…." He blinked when Mira took off her coat and allowed it to fall, showing her corset like vest and the rest of her gear. Oh you saucy minx. This I like….
"Hm, perhaps I should shred these…." He unsheathed his claws and lightly ran them over Mira's clothes. Mira shivered and gasped.
"Oh you wicked fuck! Don't do it!" At this Vergil laughed.
"I so love it when you say that, even when you're angry with me." He leaned and sniffed the heat off of her and he crooned. "So intoxicating my love. Very well, it's a draw." He set her down gently and she picked up her coat, bending over to pick it up. Vergil growled and tackled her down, with him on top, burying his face into her neck, kissing softly. Mira gasped then moaned.
"Mmmm, Babe, Nero." Mira reminded him about their son who was still awake and close by. With a final kiss, Vergil let her up and dismissed the fog. There was Nero reading a book in the now empty fountain.
"Well, its about time you two finished. Who won?"
"It's a draw." Mira said. "Come on kid, first one in gets honor of first shower!" Nero got up fast and ran. Mira laughed good naturedly when she saw Vergil trip him with his tail and scooped Mira up into his arms. "You have a lot to learn, child." Nero flipped up and made a break. "So do you Old Man!" He crowed. Mira giggled when Vergil hit a barrier.
"Holy shit! We're both stuck!" She laughed and sat down. Vergil blinked and tried to break out. He was not being outdone by his own child! Mira laughed when Vergil finally sat down and sighed.
"The child picked up a trick or two." He said. Mira shrugged.
"Come here you Devil." She purred, sitting in his lap. "I'm sure we can think of something to do while we 're in here." Vergil smirked and held her close, locking his lips with hers.
Nero grinned as he took his victory shower. Serves them both right for…oh shit they're still in there! He looked at his phone and breathed a sigh. It wasn't long, only half an hour. I mean how much could they do in thirty minutes…..oh ew ew ew no! He was about to search for them when he heard parents' laughter and saw them both walk in. They looked disheveled but happy.
"Oh no, what did you two do?" He dared to ask. Mira giggled but went upstairs to shower when Vergil remained downstairs. Nero looked at his father who chuckled darkly but prepared tea for them all.
"I don't know whether to punish you or to thank you." He said. Nero gulped but didn't move. "We didn't do anything strenuous if that's what you thought." Nero breathed a sigh of relief. Then he saw the love bite on his father's neck! Oh my god, he's got a hickey! Oh damn I owe Nico 50 bucks!
"Mm, your turn Babe." Mira said as she dried her hair, dressed in a red and black pajama set with black and red ballet slippers. Vergil hugged her and kissed her softly before lightly spanking her rear, causing Nero to blush and Mira to yelp. "You Wicked Fuck!" Mira growled as she tried to swat at him with her towel. Vergil dodged and laughed as he went upstairs. Nero didn't miss the mark on his mother's neck. Oh man he marked her too! Damn that's an even 100! With a groan he went to make a call.
"Devil May Cry?" Nico greeted. Nero groaned and the weapons artisan grinned. "Hey Bro, how are yer Mama and Demon Daddy doing? They're doing the bom chika wow wow yet?" Nero flushed scarlet red and face palmed.
"God, do you have to say it like that?!"
"Oh I can say worse, like did he cream her pie? Or better yet, did he give her the hot beef injection?" Nero blushed so red he turned purple. Mira looked over at him and laughed. She leaned in and after hearing what was said she doubled over. She took the phone from Nero who mouthed and begged no to his mother.
"Oh how about this one, yer Demon Daddy played Hide the Can o lee?" Mira blushed a bit but laughed harder. She cleared her throat and went on the phone.
"Nope but soon enough Demon Daddy'll be erupting like Krakatoa, thick and hot." Mira said before hanging up the phone. Nico stopped the van and laughed hysterically. Nero fell out of his seat. Vergil came downstairs and saw his son passed out and his future wife laughing hysterically in his favorite wingback chair. He checked over his son, saw that he just fainted and set him on the couch and pulled Mira close.
"What happened?"
"Nero called Nico and she teased him so badly that he passed out." Vergil raised an eyebrow and looked at his intended through his bangs, his blue green eyes growing darker, waiting patiently for her to continue.
"Teased him about us if we'd you know." She grinned and licked her lips slowly. Vergil let out a dark chuckle and looked at their son.
"What terms were used?" He asked. Mira leaned in and whispered them. Vergil continued to chuckle. He knew there was more. "And then?"
"I took the phone and said you'll erupt like Krakatoa, thick and hot." Vergil's eyes went green and he laughed richly and had to sit down, sitting in the wingback chair that was meant for her. Mira smiled and laughed as well. When they recovered Vergil held her close, and kissed her. Mira giggled and caressed his face.
"Poor Nero."
"He'll be fine. But that was funny, although a bit raunchy."
"Going to bed like that?" Mira asked, gesturing to her future husband's half dressed state. She noticed the tattoos for Griffon and Shadow on Vergil's bicep. Oh that is wickedly sexy. With his hair down like that and his eyes so green like that…..mmmm…Mira closed her eyes and put her head back. Vergil groaned and lightly kissed her neck and with liquid deadly grace, he leaned over her, half straddling the chair, not breaking contact. Mira gasped and wrapped her legs around his waist. Vergil trailed his kisses to her lips and kissed her deeply, exploring her mouth. She ran her hands through his hair, down his neck and lightly scratched his back. She heard him grunt and he began to kiss her harder. Mira moaned louder as she felt his hands all over her.
"Oh god, I wake up to this, that's it, I'm getting wasted." Nero whimpered as he went upstairs to his room. His parents broke apart, blinked then laughed.
"Oh wow," Mira whispered as she rested her forehead against Vergil's, her lips full and face flushed. "That was hot!"
"Yes it was, my love. Of course, now our son will be blushing for a while." Vergil chuckled. His eyes were still green, but they were bright and warm.
"Poor baby." Mira sighed. "I'm going to check on him."
"You don't have to. I already have two on the job." Vergil whispered before leaning down, capturing her lips with his again.
Griffon pecked at Nero's window and the younger devil let the familiar in, who was followed in by Shadow.
"What's up Superstar?" Griffon asked as Shadow nuzzled Nero. Nero pet the big cat and sighed.
"It's great to have my parents being so affectionate but do they have to be so…."
"Horny?" Griffon finished. Nero blushed but nodded. "My bad, but um, honestly, when was the last time they did the big 'it' again?"
"I'll be 25…." Nero said.
"So since then they've been dry on the dam? DAMN! They're worse than those who took a vow of chastity. But can you blame them? They didn't really have time to do things other than kick demon ass."
"So they're making up for it?"
"Kid, your old man is bat shit crazy about your mother. Head over heels and on his ass." Nero had to laugh. His father changed a lot and for the better. "They love each other, and they love you. We love you too." Nero smiled and rested while reading and talking to Griffon and petting Shadow.
An hour later, Griffon found his Master and future Mistress in their room, both reading a book. Mira smiled.
"Hey Little Chicken, how's he doing?"
"He's a bit shaken up at you two acting like horny teenagers, but he fell asleep. He is happy that you two are finally happy and all is peaceful. Shadow's still with him."
"That's fine." Vergil said as he marked his place and Mira did the same. "Tomorrow is another day."
Mira set her book down after marking her place and Vergil read the book. "Hm, a Midsummer Night's Dream?" Mira smiled and snuggled into bed.
"I thought it'd be a nice switch."
"It's still Shakespeare my love."
"So where are we going tomorrow Babe?"
"That my love, must wait til the marrow." Vergil whispered as he leaned in and kissed her lovingly. "Goodnight my love."
"Mmm, goodnight Babe. Can you do one favor for me?"
"Of course,"
"Hold me, please?" She asked. Vergil held Mira close and both fell asleep in each other's arms. While they slept, Sparda and Eva watched over the lovers.
Soon children…Sparda whispered as he smiled. We will be reunited again….
More to come, promise.
