Devil May Cry Olympus Lightning Thief
ESKK: Well a new chapter so let's get to it shall we.
(Start Las Vegas June 15)
The truck that the Heroes and Hunters had stowed away in had arrived at its destination in the City of Sin called Las Vegas as the driver was seen exiting the truck to the trailer it carried. As he did so he was unaware of what awaited him inside as it had some extra passengers on board. Once he opened the truck he was caught off guard while yelping as Evan, Annabeth, Calisto, Percy, Patty, and Grover jumped out and ran away. "Thanks for the free ride!" Evan called out as he and his group ran off.
"Yeah you better run you freeloaders!" The Driver roared back as Evan laughed his ass off at the guy's anger.
(Later)
The group of six ran for it until they began to note something very wrong with their destination. "Wait this isn't LA!" Patty called out as she saw the scene around them.
"Yeah this sure doesn't look like Los Angeles." Grover said as they saw the scene around them.
Just then Evan and Calisto went wide eyed as they quickly acted. "Guys stop!" Evan called out as he then jumped forth in time to punch an attack Devil in the face and block one of its scythes.
"Holy!?" Percy cried out in shock as just then more Demons and Angels began to show up.
"Oh you have got to be kidding me." Calisto said as she took out her guns as the three demigods and one Satyr pulled out his pan flute.
"These guys again!?" Percy cried out as he saw them.
"We're surrounded!" Annabeth called out as Evan glared at them while Calisto pointed her guns at them.
"Well this is gonna be one Hell of a Party!" Evan called out as he was about to go wild on them until a new combatant appeared. The Angels and Demons were getting shot up left and right as they saw a black blur going around taking them all on. What was noted about this blur was it was a she and she was wielding not one or two but FOUR guns much like Calisto.
She jumped about as the way she fought was both sexy and badass at once. "GO!" She roared out as she punched an angel and opened a portal that released a massive fist with the punch doing even more damage.
"Who the heck is she?" Percy asked as Calisto was all smiled about this.
Just then she noted her audience and smiled showing off her beautiful features as her red eyes made a wink to the six. "What you wanna touch me?" She teased as she was seen wearing a leather tight dominatrix outfit while holding four blue guns called Love is Blue.
"Bayonetta!" Calisto called out in joy as Bayonetta saw her young protégé.
"Ah little one didn't expect you to be in Los Vegas." Bayonetta said as she then spun around and shot another Angel in the face.
"Wait you know her?" Grover asked as Calisto smiled to Grover.
"Of course she taught me everything I know." Calisto smiled as Bayonetta smiled.
"Yes everything you know which apparently needs a refresher." Bayonetta said before she shot up the area behind them hitting more demons with her guns. The Six managed to dodge the attack in time as they saw the, would be sneaks fall dead.
"So what are you all doing in Vegas?" Bayonetta asked as she looked to the group here.
"Trying to get to LA." Evan said as Bayonetta smirked a bit to the group. "But I always wanted to come here and try gambling." Evan said as Bayonetta smiled to him.
"Perhaps next time." She said just as Evan shot a Devil in the face. "Nice shot." Bayonetta said as Calisto rolled her eyes.
"What about you, why are you in Vegas?" Calisto asked as she joined in on the fight as Percy pulled his sword our and slashed through a Devil.
"Oh our friends down south, and neighbors up north have been getting itchy lately and it brought me Luka, and Rodin here." Bayonetta said as Patty heard this when she stabbed another Demon.
"Wait Rodin is here?" Patty asked wondering why he was so far away from the Gates of Hell in Vegas of all places.
"Who knows, we may just find out!" Evan called out punching an Angel into a billboard which once it landed the billboard loosened as the devil splattered on its surface.
Just then a car engine was heard as the group quickly saw a large convertible driving torts them and in turn they opted to move out of the way as it spun to a stop near them. Just then they saw a young man clearly a ladies man very dizzy on the passenger side as in the driver's seat was Rodin. Rodin smirked as he got up and slammed his boot on the door denting it while hulling something over his shoulder.
"I'm here for little miss Patty." Rodin said as he smirked a bit at the group.
"That's Rodin?!" Grover asked as when he saw the guy every fiber inside him told him to run away.
"What kind of world do you all live in?" Annabeth asked in shock before Rodin tossed the item in question to Patty.
"The kind with Devils and Witches you don't fuck with." Calisto said as Patty looked over the weapon in question.
"A custom order from Lady, your mom Nina, and Dante." Rodin said as Patty caught the item and was pushed back by its weight showing it was something heavy. Upon closer inspection they saw it was a massive cross much like the Holy Cross of the Catholic Church. "That thing is a bazooka, mini-gun, and a gun holster all in one. A walking arsenal made of a durable and light metals mixing in a bit of Celestial Bronze to bring it all together." Rodin said as he took out his cigar and in turn lit it with a violet flame from his thumb.
Evan was then seen slashing his way through some more Devils as he then show up some angels by jumping over them. "Well you guys gonna join in or what?!" Evan asked as he then jumped back into the fray with increased vigor.
Patty then looked at her new gun and in turn spun it by the handle at where the cross met and jammed it into the ground. She then pulled out two handguns from it as the two smaller sides opened up for it. Once she did so she began to fire them off at her foes. She didn't stop there as once the Tommy Guns were empty she went for a revolver and an Uzi and began firing them off again. Once the revolver ran out of ammo she traded it for another Uzi this time with a bayonet. She then slashed up the Angels and devils as they came at her as she then decided to change things up.
She then grabbed the cross allowing the handgun dispenser to close up before spinning it while grasping the handle. In turn she held the weapon so the longest part was out as a second handle appeared to which she grabbed hold of it. She then fired off her mini-gun at her foes as the Devils and Angels were being offed by it as Evan and Calisto managed to avoid it with ease.
"Ok I think we've had enough." Grover began only to yelp in shock when an Angel flew at him causing Patty to bash it away with her new massive weapon. She then hoisted it over her shoulder like one would a bazooka and took aim. The Angel she bashed away she fired the missile off and in turn her foe was hit and blasted with the others who gathered together from the new weapons attack.
Rodin saw this and smiled as he then took his cigar out to admire his own craftsmanship. "Beautiful." Rodin said as he saw this happen.
"Nice." Evan said as he gave Patty a pat on the back for her skills.
"Guys!" Percy called out as he was seen slashing more Demons as they came there way.
"You all run along now I have things to do here." Bayonetta said as she got ready to go all out.
"Oh come on I can do this all night." Evan said as he looked ready to kick ass.
"No she's right we need someplace to regroup stat!" Annabeth called out as Evan sighed to this.
"Come on this way!" Calisto called out as she then began to lead them to safety.
Once they were gone Bayonetta smirked as she saw her foes here. "Well we have some naughty little Angels and Demons." Bayonetta said as she pointed her guns at her many foes.
(Meanwhile over with the group)
The group kept running for a bit looking for a place to regroup and think on their next move for their quest for Zeus's bolt. They in turn ran through a set of revolving doors next to what appeared to be a pink Lotus symbol on it. Only Evan stopped as he checked out the sign on it. "Lotus Casino and Resort." Evan read aloud before Patty saw him.
"Evan!" Patty called out as Evan knew something was amiss and seeing as the moon was up his instincts were on high alert. What made it even more noticeable was his demonic instincts his ability to sense a demonic force was going off as he followed his friends into the Casino. Once they were all inside the group was wide eyed at what they saw inside as they saw waitresses carrying what appeared to be lotus shaped cookies walking around and even exotic birds flying about.
"Nice." Evan said as he saw the place was amazing.
Just then the bellhop walked up to them as Evan noted something a bit off. "Ah welcome to the Lotus Casino and Resort. We're so glad you booked your stay with us." The Bellhop said as Evan heard this as did Patty who now had her new weapon strapped to her bag.
"What? I think you made a mistake." Annabeth said as Evan looked to him.
"Indeed we have. Your room isn't quite ready, I'm afraid." The Bellhop said as Patty was surprised by this.
"Now wait a minute we didn't." Evan began but the Bellhop cut him off.
"Please accept these Lotus cards, on the house. You can redeem them anywhere in the building. Good as cash." The Bellhop said as Evan was half tempted to go off on this guy. But something inside him told him he should be here.
"But." Annabeth began before Patty cut her off.
"You remember the travel agent telling us about the Lotus Cards, don't you?" Patty asked as she smiled to Annabeth. "We can use it to buy food or clothing or…" Patty trailed off as that got Annabeth to agree here.
"You'll come get us when our room is ready, pennyworth?" Evan asked making a butler and Alfred joke just now.
"It is my top priority." The Bellhop assured as the group then made their way inside the resort and casino. Once the group left the Bellhop smiled and pulled out a small radio and began speaking into it. "The Sparda's have checked in… I repeat the Sparda's have checked in." He said as it was clear the group had walked into a trap set up for both Evan and Calisto.
(Inside with the Quest Group)
The group walked inside the Casino as they saw the scene before them as it was like paradise on earth. For Evan and Calisto there hairs were standing on end as Patty saw this as well. "So just one night in, out then back on the road." Evan said as he tried his best to look away but the view was enticing him big time.
"Evan don't be a party pooper why not enjoy it a bit." Percy said as Grover had to agree with Percy on this one.
"Yeah I mean we all deserve a break right?" Patty offered as she was clearly being sucked into the atmosphere here.
"Guys…" Annabeth began but Percy and Grover both cut her off.
"Please." The two begged and thus Annabeth knew she was beaten as well.
"Oh fine." Annabeth conceded and thus the party began for them.
But as Grover, Patty, Percy, and Annabeth went to enjoy the resorts offers Evan and Calisto stayed behind. "I'll go this way." Evan said rubbing his eyes a bit almost tired.
"Yeah I'll keep an eye on them." Calisto said as she went to find their friends.
(Over with Evan)
Evan was seen walking around the resort as he passed by an arcade and looked to it. He entered it and saw a game labeled as 'Devil May Cry,' which Evan found odd. He looked at it and in turn began to walk away from it as he was kind of tired right now. 'Evan think something isn't right here. Your senses are going wild the longer you hang around here the more you wanna stay.' Evan mentally scolded himself as he walked around trying to make sense of this.
As Evan walked away he noted some other more Devil Hunting Oriented Arcade Games as it was like this place was trying to suck him in. Evan refused as he kept walking before he heard a new voice from afar yet near.
"Evan." A demonic voice growled as Evan knew he was being watched somehow.
Evan knew this was Greek origin but corrupted by demonic forces and recently also. As he saw this he began to rewind his mind to find every possible Greek lore involving something like this. He knew there were stories of Theseus, Perseus, Hercules, Achilles, and Odysseus... wait a minute. That was when it hit Evan like a ton of bricks.
Odysseus was a famous one for Evan as the guy managed to succeed where he knew his father would fail at. No offense to Dante but Evan knew the old man was easily distracted by many different things when hunting. Once Evan had the ID of the lore he remembered the name of this place, "The Lotus Hotel and Casino." Odysseus had landed on the island of the lotus eaters with his sailors. He felt like he was there for a few days, eating the lotus. However in reality, months passed! He had to drag his sailors off the island by their ears.
Evan knew he couldn't do it like that since they obviously bumped up security since Odysseus time. Furthermore a demonic presence had taken over and it wasn't in Evan's nature to leave it be around here. Ok he identified the problem and Calisto won't be too far behind but Evan knew his friends were safe with her. The next thing to do is to hunt down the Devil in charge and in turn bust out of this place like a bat out of hell.
But just as Evan was about to go out to find the Demon he soon heard two young kids arguing and stopped. "Come on Nico! We should get back to the room for the night." An older girl said to a younger boy. From Evan's view he saw she had dark eyes, with black hair and olive skin. She was wearing a green hat and a simple t-shirt and jeans, she seemed to be around his and Calisto's age. A younger boy was next to her, stuck on a pinball machine. He looked just like her, except he was probably around ten.
But for Evan it was different as thanks to his own demonic heritage and the full moon tonight his senses were able to pick up these possible twins. It was the same scent Patty, Percy, and Annabeth had it was the scent of a demi-god. However there's was even stranger thing to be known. Just like Percy did, there scent seemed to be even stronger than that of a normal demi-god. Evan figured it may mean that there could have been other children of the Big Three who survived there vow. But Evan didn't have time to think on it… after all he needed to get these two out of here.
Evan of course knew he needed to do this carefully though. After all he didn't want to spook them or worse get the demons on their asses as much as they are on his family. Evan slowly made his approach as the two looked up to him taking note of Evan being there. The Girl seemed to be blushing torts Evan while the boy had a wicked smile on his face.
"Hey you two, how's the game?" Evan asked as he took note of the game here.
The younger one seemed to never run out of energy. "It is awesome! You see it's based on the Greek gods look!" He said before he began pointing to the pictures. "There's Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, Apollo, Artemis!" He said excitedly pointing out each God on the game.
Evan couldn't help it when he laughed a little at the picture of his own mother on the machine, driving a chariot pulled by two stags with a shining full moon in the background. If it were up to Evan he'd have her driving a chariot pulled by two Hellhounds with a Cerberus leading the charge. "Heh that is pretty cool." Evan agreed a bit as he looked to the two Demi-Gods here. "So what are your names?" Evan asked as he looked to them both.
The boy then grabbed Evan's hand and shook it. "I'm Nico Di Angelo, and this is my big sister Bianca!" He said gesturing towards his sister.
Evan of course chuckled and smirk to this as he saw the two as his demonic half felt the darkness of their Olympian Blood. Evan knew only two Gods who could cause that sort of hidden reaction from him.
Evan then shook the girl, Bianca's, hand which made her blush even more. "It's nice to meet you guys, my name is Evan it's supposed to be a play on Evanescence while also named after my grandmother Eva." Evan said as he looked to duo before him and smiled to the two.
"It's nice to meet you Evan. So when did you start staying here? Nico and I have been here for a while." She explained as Evan heard this especially when they didn't comment on the famous Rock Band named Evanescence. For them 'a while,' could very well be years since this was the same Lotus Hotel from Odysseus tale and with demons controlling it Evan had to both kill the demon and get these two out of here.
"Tell him about the voice though!" Nico chirped up which caused his sister to send her brother a death glare.
"Nico! That's private, besides I doubt Evan cares that much about us being crazy." She scolded her younger brother but did so kind of nervously.
Crazy, jeez this girl has no idea what awaited her. "No, go ahead. I've heard some pretty crazy things in my life." Evan said as he was the cover boy for crazy 101 with his family business.
She seemed nervous at first but in the end she relented and told Evan what he wanted to know. "Well lately, Nico and I have been having these odd dreams. We keep hearing this voice talking to us saying things like "I will retrieve you soon" and "Fear not my dears you will be free soon." It's always the same, it's just that voice." She explained kind of scared as Evan saw what was going on right now.
She set everything up perfectly. It was without a doubt her godly parent talking to her in her dreams, like the dreams Percy got often. Evan then with a sigh opted to make his move as he gently grabbed their hands and lead them to a corner. Both of them had odd looks on their faces as he did this.
Once Evan was sure they were alone he then sighed and began the tale. "Okay, what do you two know about the Greek gods and goddesses?" Evan asked as he looked to the twins here.
In turn Nico popped up again as, he knew exactly what Evan was talking about. "Gods and goddesses? Like my mithomagic card game! People like Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades?" He asked with curiosity etched into his voice right now.
Evan nodded his head in response but saw that Bianca still looked quiet confused right now. "Well these gods… they're real. They still have children with humans, and those children are what are known as demi-gods." Evan explained as he then saw the expected result which came from Bianca.
In turn both of their eyes lit up as Bianca was shocked about this. "Wait you mean people like, Hercules, Theseus, Achilles?" Bianca asked as she was shocked to hear about this.
Evan shrugged a bit as he relaxed by leaning against the wall. "Yeah exactly seems you got smarts to go with those looks." Evan flirted causing Bianca to blush in response to Evan's flirt. Evan smirked but none the less continued with his explanation to the two Demi-Gods. "Well what I'm trying to say is… the two of you, you're demi-gods! The voice that talks to you when you dream, is your godly parent talking to you." Evan explained as he looked to them both.
Nico seemed to get even more excited, he was practically jumping up and down. Bianca however just seemed worried. "How… how can you be certain?" She asked with concern wondering if this was a con Evan was trying to pull.
"Hmm how can I be certain?" Evan asked in a bit of a smart ass cocky attitude to his tone. "Tell me have you two ever been able to do something others aren't able to? Make something move that others can't or even start fires with just your rage?" Evan offered as the two looked to each other and realized he had a point there.
Yes they have been able to do something like that… the shadows in the past they managed to get the shadows to move whenever they need it to particularly when they were bullied or in any form of possible danger. "Yes… the shadows sometimes when we're angry or in danger… they just move to help us in one way or form." Bianca confessed as Evan saw the two siblings may be from the same Godly Father.
'Shadows… maybe that's why my demonic power is going off.' Evan thought as he had a hunch as to who their Godly Parent was. "Good that should be your proof there. See I'm here with three other demi-gods, a tri-breed like myself, and a Satyr, they protect demi-gods. This whole place is a trap, Bianca do you know the story of the Odyssey?" Evan asked her as he looked to Bianca who while she still seemed mystified by all of this yes curious why Evan is considered a 'tri-breed,' nodded regardless.
"Good, remember how Odysseus landed in the lair of the lotus eaters?" Evan asked as he looked to the two.
In turn when it finally dawned to Bianca her eyes widened in fear. "Oh god, Nico, we need to get out of here! Evan can you help us?" She asked grabbing her brother's arm to get him out of this place.
"That's the plan." Evan as he then to the kids shock pulled out his guns Hunter and Slayer. "See I could smell your demi-god scent a mile away. My friends are still in the trance, but my sister has that covered but escaping won't be as easy as it was for Odysseus." Evan said as the two were confused.
"Why?" Nico asked as he looked to Evan with curiosity.
"Because the Hotel was taken over by demons and I couldn't just leave you guys here to be demon food." Evan said as this surprised the two demi-gods.
"D-demons?" Bianca asked as Evan shrugged a bit.
"Hey if Olympian lore is real why not Demonic forces of Hell?" Evan offered as he looked to the two demi-gods here. "So any more questions?" Evan asked as he looked to the duo standing before him.
In response Nico perked up. "So are you a demi-god to!? Who's your parent!? And what about us?" He asked firing off one question after the other.
"Ok…" Evan began before chuckling a bit. "Not in that exact order but, kind of am and kind of not, I don't know who you Godly Parent is but I have some theories, and finally my mom is Artemis, goddess of the moon, the forest, and the hills." Evan said as he cracked his neck a bit.
Nico just looked amazed and started talking about Artemis mother's attack and defense powers in mithomagic, but Bianca seemed confused. "How can you be Artemis's son? I thought Artemis was a maiden goddess." She asked as Evan sighed a bit.
But before he could answer he saw the security guards eying them as Evan knew something was up. "Maybe later." Evan said as he knew it was time to rumble soon. "After all the guards are on to us and knowing how my dad and my granddad are both on the demons fuck list this party might just get crazy." Evan said as he smirked in anticipation to this.
"You two may want to take these." Evan said as he took out weapons he had kept from Camp Half-Blood and passed the spear to Bianca while giving Nico the Celestial Bronze sword. "Those are just loners so I expect them back later since I need to return them to the camp." Evan said as he did technically steal camp property since he didn't ask to keep the weapons. "Now come on the only sure fire way to get out of here is to off the Devil who controls it and in a place like this… if it's not in the gambling hall then only one place it can be." Evan said as he began to make his way where he heard the techno club music going off from.
(Meanwhile over with Calisto's part)
Calisto was currently looking for her friends as she had last saw them at the Pizza parlor but lost them at the beauty salon area. She rubbed her eyes in frustration until she came upon an Arcade Area. The whole time she was in this place the Lotus Casino had tried to entice her with Strawberry Sundae's, Witch Based items, pizza, and even fashionable clothing. As she walked she soon noted the security guards who looked like the men in black take note of her. Calisto knew they were on to her and if they were on to her then in all likelihood they were on to Evan wherever her twin brother was right now.
As she made her way into another Arcade she found her intended targets inside it as she looked to the games. There were many titles such as Adventure Quest or Final Fantasy while there were a few she never heard of which were given ironic names such like, Devil May Cry or Bayonetta. As Calisto walked about she soon saw Percy at some surfing game, Annabeth playing some kind of boring building game, and Patty playing some sort of dating sim type of game.
Calisto then rolled her eyes and walked over to Patty first since she knew her the best next to her brother. "Oh Patty." Calisto began by tapping the young demi-goddess's shoulder as she looked to the gamer. "Patty." Calisto tired again shaking her a bit only to be shrugged off. "PATTY FOCUS!" Calisto ordered as she then slapped Patty a bit.
"Calisto what is your problem I'm just about to go to the school dance!" Patty scolded as she glared to Calisto.
"Patty focus we are here for a reason." Calisto said as she tried to get Patty to focus on the task at hand here.
"But sempai!" Patty cried out only for Calisto to roll her eyes and slap Patty on both cheeks to wake up the young Lowell Demi-Goddess.
"Patty FOCUS! Where is Dante?!" Calisto pretty much yelled as Patty then began to focus as she shook her head a bit before she returned to her normal self.
"Calisto what was that for?" Patty asked as her cheeks stung from the slaps Calisto delivered.
"To wake you up Patty we're in danger right now." Calisto urged as she looked to her best friend here.
"Wait wake up what's going on?" Patty asked as she tried to get her mind back in order right now.
"We're in the Lair of the Lotus eaters which has been taken over by Demons so we need to get Percy, Annabeth, and Grover before dealing with the Devil Controlling this place." Calisto explained as Patty understood the situation now.
"How can I help?" Patty asked as she looked to Calisto.
"You wake up Annabeth and I'll get Percy." Calisto explained as Patty understood that.
"Got it." Patty said before she went looking for Annabeth to wake-up the Athena girl.
"Now to wake up the water boy." Calisto said as she then went to locate Percy and wake him up.
Calisto went sprinting to look for Percy as she knew at any moment they could be attacked or in Grover, Percy, and Annabeth's case the demons newest snack to eat. She ran through the lines of Arcade Games ignoring them while keeping an eye out for her longtime friend Percy.
As she ran she began to locate him near a game labeled as 'Rescue Mom,' which Calisto noted was literally asking for Percy to wake up all on his own. As she ran to him she saw another game as she walked over to it and saw its title. AS she read it she smirked and scoffed at it before walking away. But as Calisto walked the title was revealed as 'Artemis Mother of Hunters.' Calisto already knew what the game was about and despite how she wanted it to be sure she knew her mother was right. She needed to survive this first before considering joining with her hunt.
"Percy." Calisto began as she tried to focus on Percy.
"Yeah?" Percy asked as he was drawn into the Arcade Game standing before him.
"What Game You looking at?" Calisto asked as she looked to the Son of Poseidon.
"Some game called Rescue Mom." Percy said as he was drawn into it. "You know anything about it? Honestly I think it's a game where you're a paramedic with kids." Percy said as Calisto saw the Hotel made a mistake here.
"No you have to rescue your mom." Calisto explained as she looked to Percy.
"From what?" Percy asked as Calisto then shrugged in response.
"Not sure I mean it is your game after all." Calisto said as in turn Percy's eyes widened in shock.
"It's my game…" Percy said as then it hit him as he woke up from it. Calisto smirked as the Lotus Eaters dug their own grave there using this game here. "Calisto something is." Percy began but Calisto shushed him there.
"I know Patty is getting Annabeth right now." Calisto said as Percy was surprised but also grateful for Calisto's help.
(With Patty)
"Annabeth you need to get off the game." Patty said as she tried to talk Annabeth to let the game go.
"I can't if I don't get this freeway built the gridlock will scare off any potential developers!" Annabeth argued as Patty rolled her eyes to Annabeth's response.
"Come on Annabeth don't you find it weird that there is a game specifically about urban planning? Like it was made with YOU in mind?" Patty argued trying to get Annabeth to let the game go.
"Patty I'll have you know plenty of kids enjoy playing games that require thought." Annabeth argued as Patty then rolled her eyes in response.
"Sorry." Patty said before she forcibly grabbed Annabeth and began to drag her away.
"No stop! Now I have to start all over!" Annabeth called out before Patty got into Annabeth's face and slapped her.
"Annabeth THINK what would Athena do right now?!" Patty scolded as she glared at Annabeth.
In turn Annabeth's eyes began to clear up as she realized what was wrong. Just then Percy and Calisto arrived as the group saw they were all woken up. But someone was still missing and they all knew who it was. "Where's Grover!?" They all asked at the same time before going off to look for their missing Satyr friend.
(Meanwhile over with Evan's group)
Evan, Bianca, and Nico stood near a door that lead to what sounded like techno club music as there was even a guard outside the door. "Is this the place?" Bianca asked as she saw the club in question.
"Yeah see those markings?" Evan asked as he pointed to the demonic symbols around the door looking like it was part of the whole design of it.
"Um yeah?" Nico said as he saw them.
"There demonic runes they give the Devil inside power while also letting others know this is that particular demons domain. For those like us we enter at our own risk for those unaware it's a one way ticket to the slaughter house and the devils stomach." Evan explained as he looked to the two Demi-Gods here. "If we wanna get out of here and make sure no one else dies here we need to take this Devil Out." Evan said as he looked back to the door to the dance floor.
"What do we do?" Bianca asked as she looked to Evan for guidance.
"Get this Party started." Evan said as he began to walk to the door. But as he did so he was then stopped by the bouncer there.
"Hey kids hold it, you all aren't coming in. None of you are on the list." He said pointing to his clipboard as Evan glared at him then smirked.
"That so?" Evan asked as the bouncer never saw it coming when he did it. Evan then uppercut the guy so hard he fell over as the line of people were shocked to see this while gasping. Evan then caught the clipboard and highlighter before he began to write on it. "Am now." Evan responded before he dropped the clipboard and highlighter on the knocked out bouncer.
When Nico and Bianca saw what Evan wrote down they were surprised how he did that. The words 'Fuck You,' was written on the clipboard in big bold and red words.
(Inside the Club)
The trio were seen walking about the club as they tried to locate the Devil that controlled this rave party. But Evan knew the minute he walked in that they were being watched and quite closely. No doubt thanks to Evan and his less than good relation with most of Inferno. But when one hunts the things that go bump in the night your bound to make a lot of enemies even more if you are a relative of Sparda.
But up above on the balcony spot was a different story all together.
(Up Above)
On the Balcony the Devil who oversaw this area smiled enjoying the beet of the music a bit as she saw her cattle enjoying themselves. As this happened she swayed to the beet a bit as she was seen wearing an outfit that a slut like rave girl would wear. Add the fact she was able to mimic the age where her beauty was at its peak helped with luring in her pray like moths.
"Sparda." A demonic voice hissed as the Demonic woman in charge heard one of her spotters say that cursed name.
She then looked around the crowd and in turn saw Evan, Bianca, and Nico roaming amongst the party goers below. "Evan son of Dante and the Olympian Goddess Artemis." The girl said as she saw the trio below. "And he's brought demi-gods… how delicious." She said licking her lips in anticipation for such a rare treat standing below her feet. "Well lets with them a bit." The Devil said as she was going to take her time to enjoy this.
(Back with the Trio below)
As Evan and his two Demi-God companions traversed the dance floor looking for their target a light shined down on them signaling the trio out. Of course the gasps soon vanished as the area around the changed suggesting they just entered the Devil's den. Evan saw this and glared about as Bianca and Nico were caught off guard by this.
It was then made worse as the vanishing people made way for demons who had used human skin to blend in followed by a wall to keep them in. "Well you wanna dance?" Evan asked as he then pulled out Hunter and Slayer and aimed them at his foes after a spin. "Let's rock!" Evan called out as he grinned at his foes.
In turn the battle began with Evan opening fire upon the demons who roared in pain from the onslaught of bullets. Then Evan went with a stabbing motion with Elysium taking out some Devils before using Titan to punch and kick them to submission. He didn't end it there as he then took out the tomahawk and dagger weapons and began fighting the Devils With them.
Nico and Bianca were shocked when they saw him throw the weapons about only for said weapons to return to his hand with ease. If that wasn't enough Evan was clearly going to town on the Devils who had taken control of the Hotel. Evan then jumped upward and gave a dive punch against his foes before performing a spin kick. HE then raised his foot upward over a downed devil before bringing it down and smashing the Devils skull in turn.
He then used Elysium again and slashed through multiple demons before spinning down and swiped at them with his foot. He then had to avoid fire from the Demons as he back flipped away from them. Then he charged in while firing at his foes with Hunter and Slayer before taking out his mother's gifts and slicing at them. With the two weapons he sliced there feet off before using the dagger to stab into ones eye and the axe to chop into their brains. The result was a gore pit as Evan was going to town on the Demons in here.
Once Evan dealt with the last Devil he glared up and saw the Devil in her human guise smirking down on the Son of Artemis. "Well Evan your name has been thrown around a lot. Son of Dante, Son of Artemis, grandson of Sparda, and much more." The Devil said as Evan glared at her. "Me… I am Lilith the mistress of this realm." Lilith introduced as she smirked at Evan.
"Good I got a name to put on your tombstone." Evan taunted as he glared at Lilith while smirking.
"Well then what brings you here Evan I wonder? The Girls, the music, the no age restrictions, or does it have to do with that prophesy I wonder." Lilith said as Evan then had enough of that Prophesy crap.
"I'm here for you so get your fucking scrawny ass down here!" Evan called out as he glared at Lilith.
"Well I would Evan but… how can I put this? My friends would like a go first." Lilith called out and snapped her fingers causing the entire room to shake and morph before it was as big a field. Nico and Bianca got lucky as they were on higher ground.
"Hello my beautiful creatures, demon, monster, human, demi-god or otherwise. From Night club to fight club we have a special event for you all tonight." Lilith said as Evan saw this was more of a colosseum right now. "So drink up, place your bets, and have a good time." Lilith said as Evan looked for his opponent.
"Evan look out!" Bianca cried out in a panic as Evan heard rumbling nearby.
"Oh shit!" Evan cursed as he narrowly avoided a giant's cleaver brought down on him. As Evan fell down on his ass from that he quickly got back up and had to avoid more blade slashes from the bigger foe. Evan then smirked when he saw the sword get stuck in the ground and quickly acted. But the result was the Giant being smarter then it looked and hit Evan away.
Evan landed near two of the friends and had to avoid an attack from the Giants Axe. Evan then pulled out Elysium and blocked one of the attack before pushing it away. Evan then saw a Devil charging at him before he quickly grabbed one of the arena's many obstacles and threw it at the Devil Giant. He smirked when he saw it stab into its eye causing it to roar in pain. Evan then avoided the Devils axe again and ran torts the one with a tree in its eye. Figured use their size and small brains against them would be his best bet. Evan jumped onto the back of the one with a tree in its eye and began using Titan to punch its thick skull in. The Demon tried to force him off only for Evan to grab the pole in its eye and pulled its head into position.
Its ally ended up killing its injured friend when the axe chopped into his head. "HA!" Evan taunted only to be hit with a mace weapon and sent flying from it with a yell. When Evan landed he rolled a bit and hissed in pain a bit while getting back up. "Ok I think I'll feel that one in the morning." Evan said as he got back up.
"Evan!" Nico was heard next as Evan looked and saw the giant with a club coming at him.
"Ok come and get some." Evan said as he had both Titan and Elysium ready for battle. Evan deflected the club and dodged a swing also when then Giant came upon him. It punched its bone spiked fist down on Evan who easy dodged it before grabbing its long ear hooks. "Hold still handsome!" Evan said as then with Titan he began to punch the hell out of the Devil. But then one fist managed to jam into its eye causing the Demon to roar in pain as Evan gagged at what was inside.
Evan then yanked the fist, out and flicked it with a gag. "It's fucking wet in there." Evan gagged as he didn't want to do that again. Evan then got ready with Elysium when he saw the Demon flailing around from the pain. "Hey pal." Evan said as he then smirked when the Demon tripped and stabbed its head straight into Elysium's blade.
Evan used Titan to keep the Demon corpse off him but that didn't stop the smell from its breath to come in seeing as Elysium stabbed under its head and to its brain. "Jesus what have you been eating!" Evan called out before getting out of the way. "Dead now so not important." Evan said as just then he yelped when he avoided the third Devil Giants swing at him.
Evan then kicked the Giants foot knocking it down as he smirked at what he saw. "Just you and me now princess." Evan said only to cry out in pain when he got kicked by it and sent flying.
Evan began to get back up as he heard the giant charging at him. But as he got up he saw the forgotten sword and in turn had an idea. He went for it and with a show of great strength grabbed the weapon and swung it upon the giant that arrived. He managed to chop off its arm causing it to roar in pain. With the momentum Evan then managed to cleave off its right leg as it fell down in pain bleeding out. Thus with the last bout of momentum Evan swung the sword down upon the Demons head killing it with ease.
"That's what you get tubby." Evan said as he caught his breath. "Sneak attacks on me fail every time." Evan said as he then glared over to Lilith. "Your turn Barbie!" Evan called out as he pointed straight at Lilith.
"My I must confess I didn't expect to see you make it this far Evan my boy." Lilith said as she then jumped over the railing and landed on the ground as the world around them began to warp again. "I've been dying to cut loose and now you provided me with an excuse." She said as she removed her coat revealing her large bare breasts. In turn her skirt fell apart as her feet began to change form. She was seen wearing a thong as her forehead began to grow a pair of horns. From her bareback wings began to form as her nails began to elongate into claws. Then a long spaded tail sprouted from her rear at the tailbone while her feet and arms began to be covered in scales. To top it off shadows began to form up on her as she smiled a wicked fanged filled grin as her violet colored lipstick and make up showed her demonic origin.
"Now then… let's show each other a good time Evan." Lilith said as she was ready to fight at long last.
But before she could start the fight more gunfire was heard hitting Lilith who cried out in both pain and surprised. "Who did that?!" Lilith demanded after she was hit by those bullets.
"I did." Calisto called out as she appeared via jumping down from a vantage point.
"Well sis way to steal my thunder." Evan said as he and his sister stood next to each other both with grinning smirks on their faces.
"Had to be done." Calisto said with a smile on her face. "Besides Patty, Percy, Annabeth, and Grover are getting those kids you found to safety." Calisto said to her brother.
"Good no distractions." Evan said as he was just itching to cut loose right now.
"You little bastards!" Lilith roared out and with the shadows making her larger then she was attacked them head on. The twins quickly dodged out of the way of her attack as they began firing straight at her in successive fury. The two then went at her as Evan used Elysium while Calisto used her guns to keep this devil on its toes before them.
Lilith formed a tower of sorts made of shadows where her waist was connected to it as she fired down her magical bolts at them. She wasn't intended on sharing the same fate Nevan did when she took on Mundus's conqueror back in the Temen-Ni-Gru. So with this in mind she kept her onslaught up but the twins were strong, smart, and fast. They knew if they kept hitting the shadows Lilith main body would be brought closer to them. Of course despite this they also fired off their guns at her main body making her roar in fury and attack them both in rage.
But as Nevan was about to attack again she cried out when she saw crossbow bolts hit her causing her to look to the source. There she saw Annabeth glaring at Lilith as Patty then took out two of her many guns and began firing. Nevan was forced to dodge and avoid the attack but then was caught off guard when Evan jump in with a drop kick knocking the Succubus down.
"What was that about getting them out of here Calisto?" Evan asked a Calisto shrugged in response.
"So I made a mistake so what." She countered as she then avoided another attack from their demonic target.
But before Evan could retort he used Titan to block an attack from Lilith's claws before kicking her away doing it hard. Lilith of course fixed herself midflight as she then grabbed Evan and got ready to kiss him no doubt to feed. It was there Calisto slammed her heeled shoes on Lilith firing them off causing the Devil to let go of Evan and retreat back.
As this happened they heard the pan flute of Grover as they looked and saw him aiding them in his own way by using the magic of the flute. The song sounded holy in origin causing Lilith to roar out to it being annoyed by the song in question. This in turn allowed Percy to jump in and slice at Lilith with Riptide as he rolled over to his friends.
"Hey." Calisto greeted as she saw Percy.
"Hey." Percy responded as the trio got ready to fight the she-devil Lilith.
Lilith then jumped to the ground and began to channel her magic. "I won't lose here mutts!" Lilith roared out and unleashed her powers before going full frontal on the trio. She was fast and powerful but Evan and Calisto were faster and stronger. Evan stayed close to Percy to shield him as Calisto nodded to Evan before she dodged the last second. While she did this Evan snapped his fingers causing both of them to enter Witch Time and Trickster Time respectively. The two then charged a Lilith and began to unleash and onslaught on her.
As they did this they saw how her body rippled from it before they ran around and jumped around while shooting their guns at her. They smirked when the bullets slowed to a halt which was there intention. Calisto then jumped to the air using Evan's Elysium as a springboard just as time resumed. Lilith was hit with the onslaught of the twin's attacks as she was then smashed down by Calisto who smashed her heels down on Lilith knocking her down.
"Oh I'm sorry did that hurt? Looks like it did." Evan taunted as he walked over to the downed Lilith.
Lilith glared at Evan before roaring out as she glared at the group. "If you had all just begged for mercy you all would have lived to be brought into my fore or made into my pets." Lilith roared out in Enochian as her body began to form shadows and her form began to grow larger. "But now not even the pits of Inferno can describe the hell I am about to inflict upon you!" Lilith roared in fury as two large draconic wings appeared.
Her upper body remained the same but now it was attached to a demonic form with four legs with the front two being humanoid and the hind legs being bestial in origin. It didn't end there as she still retrained her humanoid arms but now there were two more large demonic arms in its place as she had s serrated tail to boot. The area were her upper torso attached to the rest showed some sort of insectoid like face as it glared at the trio in question.
"Well at least the outside matches the inside… oh wait that was already the case." Evan taunted as Calisto laughed in agreement with her brother.
"DIE!" Lilith roared in fury as she charged in surprising Percy in turn.
"Oh shit!" Percy called out as the trio got out of the way.
Evan and Calisto managed to avoid the attack as they saw the Devil roar in anger at them. Evan then looked to the nearby fountain and saw the hole to a water pipe in the wall and smirked. "Hey Percy sink or swim!" Evan called out as he then charged in with Titan and busted the pipes causing water to shoot out.
"Wait what?!" Percy asked in shock but when he saw the water he saw what he meant. They were in a tub basically and tubs fill up after all. He then got his feet to the water and focused on it causing the water to shoot out from the pipes, walls, and floor. IT wasn't long until the ground was covered in water.
Calisto stood on a floating table as Evan stood on another with Percy taking a table of his own. "Very well I shall send you to a watery hell!" Lilith roared out and charged causing the water to move violently from it.
Evan and Calisto dodged it as Percy used the water to his advantage. It seems the combination of both Evan and Calisto with Percy caused there power to enhance seeing as they left under a full moon when entering this Devil's stolen Lair of Lotus. In fact Percy can wager his powers were enhanced by being near Evan and Calisto. The trio surfed over to Lilith and began triple teaming her with swords and guns.
Percy didn't have guns but he was glad he had his sword and debris to stab into Lilith. Evan jumped up and spun kick Lilith's head as Calisto then charged in and shot punched her face. "GO!" Calisto called out with the punch as she saw this.
Lilith roared out and fired a beam from the insectoid mouth forcing the group to dodge it. Evan of course got blindsided by the tail as it stabbed it his gullet. He cried out in pain of course but just then Calisto came in and sliced through it with her swords causing it to come off. Evan landed near his sister and tore the bladed tail out growling.
"Be careful." Calisto scolded as Evan rolled his eyes to this.
"Come on!" Evan called out as he jumped back into the fray and in turn they continued the fight.
(Up above)
"Wow their so strong." Nico said as he saw what was happening as Annabeth, Patty, and Grover protected them.
"Yeah welcome to my world." Patty said as she was ready for anything that may happen.
(Battle)
The trio continued their onslaught as Lilith tried her best to keep them at bay but the trio were quickly gaining headway against her might. She then cried out in pain as she felt Evan stab into the insectoid face she had before Calisto jumped over his shoulder and shot one of her eyes out. Lilith roared in pain only for her good eye to catch sight of Percy slicing through her face with Riptide. "Guys lets end this!" Percy called out as the twins agreed on this.
"Right!" The twins called out as they were ready to put this devil to bed.
(Above)
"Oh here it comes!" Patty called out excited for what's coming.
"Again?" Annabeth asked still remembering the battle with Fortitudio.
"No better a twin climax." Patty said as she knew when the twins were together for a climax it was always an instant win.
"What are they going to do?!" Bianca asked as Nico saw this.
"It's just like my video games." Nico said as he swore these two acted like video game characters in a hack and slash type of game.
(Battle)
*Insert Frank Sinatra Fly me to the Moon (Punk Cover) by Saw Loser
Evan began by charging in and jumping between floating tables before jumping up with Elysium raised up. Mid slash he devil Triggered with a roar and slashed down on his foe causing her to cry out in pain from it. When he did this he jumped back as Lilith fired a beam at them as Evan began flying. The attack came at Calisto who smirked and spun around it began her infernal summoning.
"CANILU!" She invoked with a dance to summon the Devil Hydra. A portal opened allowing her power to enter it and open a second one to draw out the intended summon. Hydra came out as it roared out before diving into the water. Hydra in turn began to swim around the water like a shark torts the pray which was in turn Lilith.
Lilith looked around panicked as she saw this and began to spread her wings to fly away. But then Evan flew in and stabbed her back forcing her to stay put. Just then Hydra was upon Lilith and with her bladed body began to wrap her form around Lilith and in turn shred her to pieces. Lilith roared in pain from it as she was town limb from limb by Hydra.
Soon the water was stained red with her demonic blood as she fell limp for a moment. Lilith saw her foes and roared out in a final strike only to be blocked by a wall of water curtesy of Percy. But from the water Evan shot through still Triggered and in turn sliced through Lilith severing her from her lower body. The Lower half though flail about for a moment before going limp clearly dead. This allowed an infernal portal to appear and take the lower body as Lilith's main body began to desperately crawl away to safety.
*End OST
Evan then landed on the ground after Percy got the water to drain out before charging at Lilith with Elysium raised. But as he swung the sword down it was then stopped by a familiar figure with a cigar. "Rodin!" Patty called out as she saw Rodin here.
"Cool your jets kid. There is a time and place to fuck shit up and right now the fuck shit up part ended." Rodin said while blowing out a puff of smoke. Evan yanked off Elysium as he saw Rodin walk over the defeated Lilith.
"I thought I fucked up my business when I came in here. But I gotta hand it to you kids. This is quality." Rodin said as he then kicked Lilith despite trying to crawl away. "The perfect palette for an artiste." Rodin said as he then pulled out the weapon to be and pointed it at Lilith. "Now time to do my dirty work." Rodin said as he began to do the aforementioned dirty work.
Just then demonic tendrils shot out of the item and grabbed to Lilith as she tried to get away but was quickly caught. "W-what are you doing?!" She cried out as she tried to get away. "Stop! No!" Lilith cried out as she was pulled into the item in question. "How dare you do this to me!? This will not stand!" Lilith cried out as she knew what was happening. She was being made into an unwilling devil arm. She raged, struggled, and fought but in the end it was useless as she was fully absorbed into the new Devil Arm.
"Huh Bayonetta was right, that wasn't at all romantic." Calisto said as she saw this.
Patty rejoined the group as she had stars in her eyes at what Rodin did. "How did you do that and can you teach me?" Patty asked as no doubt her aspect as Hephaestus daughter began to show.
"Maybe when you're older." Rodin said with a chuckle as he wasn't looking for a protégé yet. But the girl has talent and if the talent is worth it he may make an exception. "But Calisto you gotta admit this thing has a nice glow about it." Rodin said as he showed the Devil Arm which appeared to be a combination of a Keytar and a scythe.
"Mind if I give it a go?" Calisto asked as Rodin smirked and threw it over to Calisto who caught it. "Thanks not to show the finer points of fucking shit up." Calisto said as she got ready to rock.
Calisto then saw her stage set and in turn jumped onto it. When she did a spot light shined down upon her as more Demons appeared to enact their revenge. When this happened the music hit as she began to rock.
*Insert Fly me to the Moon (Climax)
The music began as Calisto had the spotlight on her as she began to hit the keys with successive ease. The other sound came from the spears nearby as she began to rock out like a pop star.
-Fly me to the moon and let me play among the stars!-
As Calisto sang her voice was beautiful and she used her new weapon to her advantage. The keys seemed to summon up shadows blades and beams that hit her foes. The beams acted as strobe lights with despite being weapons of destruction.
-Let me see what spring is like on Jupiter and mars!-
As she did this she kicked and bashed her foes with ease as they came at her while the others stayed out of it.
-In other words hold my hands! In other words Darling kiss me!-
She sang as she managed to punch her foes and swing the scythe blade at them before blowing a kiss to them. Her kiss made an actual heard of demonic power that caused a demon to be hit by it and fly back with hearts in their eyes.
-Fill my heart with song and let me sing forever more! You were all I long for all I worship and adore!-
She sang this and focused on the ranged aspect of her new Devil Arm Lilith. As she did this the Demons seemed to have become attacking fan in comparison as Evan clapped cheering his sister on.
-In other words please be true! In other Words Love you! In other words I love you!-
Calisto began to bring the song to station as she slammed down the music and with a blast of her own power created sparklers that had an image of Sparda's demon forms shadow behind her.
*End OST
Calisto cheered as the music began to fade out before she fell down letting the high run its course for her. "Wow you two are twins." Annabeth said as she saw the whole thing.
"No kidding." Bianca said as she then let the words catch up to her. "Wait there twins?!" Bianca asked as she heard what Annabeth said.
(Scene Break outside the Casino)
"Well that's one place we can never show our faces at again." Evan said as he walked outside with their now larger group.
"Um guys I thought it was night time." Annabeth said as she saw the sun was up.
"How many hours were we in there?" Evan asked as he followed his friends out.
"Uh, guys." Percy began as he looked to his friend. "We weren't in there for hours." He said while pointing to a news stand. "Try days." He said as today was June 20th which meant they had one day to get to LA and then return to New York.
"Well that's just a shame." Bayonetta said as she appeared surprising the group as Rodin walked out. "You can't get those two to camp and finish he quest in time." Rodin said as he smoked a cigar.
"I don't suppose you'd give them a ride would you?" Calisto asked Bayonetta as she saw the two.
"I'm no babysitter." Bayonetta said as she saw the two. "But since you have been there for heaven knows how long I suppose I Can make an exception." Bayonetta said as Evan then looked to Rodin.
"Rodin how fast can you get us to LA?" Evan asked as Rodin smirked in response.
"Depends on how much you got." Rodin said as Evan then sighed and took out the Casino Card, Red Orbs, and Halos he had in his pocket as did Calisto.
"Will this cover it?" Calisto asked as the group saw the negotiations going on.
"I'll say it covers it and a few tabs from your old man." Rodin said as Evan smirked before he saw the Devil Forge Master bring out a set of keys. He then used said keys and in turn they came face to face with Rodin's car which looked to be something out of a Heavy Metal mixed with Rap music video.
"Get in Rodin speedways is departing with no stops." Rodin said as he was going to give the kids a ride.
"Evan remind me to thank you when we make it through this." Percy said as he, Annabeth, Patty, Grover, and Calisto all boarded the car.
"Yeah we'll see about that." Evan said as he got in as well.
In turn the engines roared as Rodin flew down the street as Bayonetta was stuck with Nico and Bianca. "Now then little ones." Bayonetta began as she looked to the two Demi-Gods. "Let's find us a ride shall we." Bayonetta said as she knew the perfect way to get a ride and get it for with no financial cost. A little place she liked to call Purgatory where only a very select few humans can see any of them.
"Got it!" Nico said as he and Bianca followed after Bayonetta.
"Are you a witch?" Bianca asked as Bayonetta smirked in response to the demi-god girl's innocent question.
"Well I'm what is called an Umbra Witch I sold my soul to a demon to get power similar to the ones you saw Calisto show off." Bayonetta said as this in turn got Bianca very interested.
"Is it possible for me to become an Umbra Witch?" Bianca asked surprising Bayonetta to no end.
"Hmmm." Bayonetta began as she had to think about it. "It's possible but I don't think I've ever met a Demi-Goddess Umbra Witch." Bayonetta said as she may have unintentionally started Bianca on the path to be the first Demi-God Umbra Witch judging by the look of intrigue and desire in her eyes. It seems things were about to get interesting real fast Bayonetta just knew it.
(Scene Break Evelyn)
Evelyn had arrived at New York not too long ago and was making her way through the city. She had something here to check out and it would either lead her to another fight with Evan or something else. She knew that the Trident began Stolen would set off a domino effect but she refused to be anyone's pawn. Her intent was to steal the powers for herself but she needed to make sure it was her own thoughts seeing as Kronos has been trying to recruit her to his cause and had been refused multiple times already.
As she walked she looked to the Empire State Building before continuing her trek for an unknown ending goal. But one thing was for certain she will show all those who stand against her the power she wields the power of a true Sparda.
(TBC)
