Sorry for the short chapter. I was so caught up with Dante and Vergil's shopping that I forgot to write Nero's coming back.
In response to hawkeyestratos1996: That is the most likely outcome, yes.
In response to tenimyuohtori: Yes, very close indeed. I think Sparda is just getting annoyed at this point. Don't worry, Vergil will set Dante's habits straight somehow. Patty will probably just retreat until things calm down. Nah, Trish and Lady stuck Dante with bills during a time that I think he was more financially stable. Plus that was before the money was taken from Dante's account. Yes, Sparda loves the floor. Let's see if he can keep the floor.
In response to Guest: Thanks! I hope you keep reading! There will be more things from DMCV in the story, so stay tuned.
In response to lio4567892012: Thanks!

Nero walked briskly back to the Devil May Cry, his footsteps spurred on slightly by the moon shining in the sky.
He rounded a corner, once again spotting the shop. Nero paused for a moment, slightly nervous about how he would repair his relationship with his father.
The young quarter devil took a deep breath before resuming his walk towards the shop.
The night air was slightly cold, but thankfully the shop was located somewhere that made winter and snow practically nonexistent.
Nero made his way up the stairs, his heart beating a little faster. He reached for the door, with his right hand this time.
He opened it slowly, finding that the main office was empty. The lights were off and the only light in the room was the glow of Nero's Devil Bringer.
Nero stepped in slowly, making sure that the door didn't make too much noise.
He figured that Dante and his father had gone to bed.
Nero moved toward the couch, preparing to take a few hours of sleep as well.
Until he tripped over Sparda and landed face first on the floor. He groaned as he wrenched himself from the floorboards, giving a vicious glare to the Devil Sword.
After righting himself, Nero moved to lift Sparda. Upon gripping the handle, the Devil Arm sent a powerful shock up his left arm.
Nero hissed while he shook the pain from his arm. He gave Sparda another glare.
"You wanna go, huh?"
Nero said quietly as to not disturb Dante or his father. The quarter devil reached for the Devil Sword again, but this time he used his right arm.
The Devil Bringer seemed to do the trick, successfully fending off the majority of the shock.
Nero grinned as he pulled the sword from the floor. Sparda sent more electrical charges down his arm, but the Devil Bringer's durability absorbed most of the pain.
"Not so tough now, huh?"
He said in a mocking tone. The Devil Sword gave off something similar to a huff before falling silent.
Nero chuckled before resting Sparda over his shoulder and moving to put it back where it was.
He leaned it against the wall behind Dante's desk and walked back to the couch, practically collapsing on it.
It didn't take long for Nero to pass out, given that he had Triggered twice in one day.
In his delirious half asleep state, Nero figured he would just talk to his father tomorrow.
