LAYER3: the High Priestess
The gate opened once more, and our horoes seemed to be on a dirt road. There were plains as far as the eye can reach, and a small town in the horizon. The weather was hot, the fact that there was no shade and water nearby didn't seem to be making things any better.
"We have to go to that village, outherwise I'll have an heath stroke, I'm not kidding" Trish said.
"But…but…it would take us forever to get to the village, we'll turn into raisins in a matter of minutes! Besides, I'm no tired, I don't think I can walk another step" said Dante, after saying this, he sat on the ground and covered his head using his coat.
"About that "not being able to walk" thingy, Dante! Here comes a good reason to do so!!" said Kiko, and he sprinted towards the village like there was no tommorow.
"He's soooooooo strange" both Dante and Trish said.
Suddenly, the ground began to rumble, Trish and Dante looked at the small rocks on the dirt road shake and jump, with the vibrations.
"Earthquake?" asked Dante
"S-s-s-s-s-STAMPEDE!!!!" yelled Trish
"OH FUCK!!!!"yelled Dante
Strange animals resembling bulls came running from behind them. Dante and Trish ran as fast as they could.
As they were running, Trish fell, while the beasts were closing behind them. Seing Trish in trouble activated Dante's demon half, as he devil triggered and unleashed a thunder storm, courtesy of Alastor. Unlike what he had expected, the "light show" didn't stop the beast's tracks, they only began to run faster, enraged. Dante flew down and picked Trish in his arms and flew to the village, hoping to find shelter.
They arrived at the village, only to find destruction. A sea of flames, blood, death and ruins stood before their eyes. Dante returned to normal.
"Dante, you saved me again…" said Trish, with relief.
"Only doing my duty as a boyfriend," said Dante with a grin "but you'll pay me back later, we have bigger problems to attend to, right now." Saying this, he gently slapped Trish's buttox, only for her to come runnig after him.
"COME AND GET YOUR PRIZE YOU PERV!!!!!" yelled Trish, while running around Dante and shooting, using the guns Dante made her, the Soul and Body.
"Would you two stop!?" yelled Kiko "we have work to do! See that temple over there? That's where the next card, the High Priestess, must be. The High Priestess is representive of the material world, and sea of emotions. She is our knowing conscious, and she lets things happened, if they are taking their proper path. So lets go! Besides, you guys fight in front of me, but when we spent that night in the inn, I heard the springs on your bed break, and I doubt you were jumping on bed like 5 a year old." said Kiko, with a disgusting look on his face.
"Actually, we WERE jumping on bed!" said Trish
"Oh really? Then why were you yelling:" AAAAH DANTE! FASTER, DON'T STOP OH GOD!! JINGLE BELLS, HERE COMES SANTA!!!"? asked Kiko, while examined the body of a deciesed one.
Dante and Trish looked like tomatos, due to their massive blush.
"Ok, let's go, and we have to…" Kiko stopped his sentence, as blood spat from his back, he fell to the ground.
"NO!! SHIT!! WAKE UP!! WHATS WRONG?!" they both yelled. Surprisingly, they were able to hold him, his spirit had materialised.
They went inside the huge temple, which seemed deserted. In the Main room a boy was holding a staff with a shiny stone. The boy was saying some strange words in front of a body, covered in blood. Dante and Trish's footsteps alerted the boy.
"Who's there? If it's any other of those wodden killers, I'll…I'll""
"Hey give us a help, will ya?" asked Dante "this kid's life is very important to the world we know!"
"Very well, put him on the table" ordered the boy" but you must not be in here, you might distract me!" Dante and Trish walked outside the temple, it was the same as a birth was going on, they were nervous, what would happen if Kiko died, what would become of the world of dreams and the world where they lived? All sorts of questions went through thei minds.
The temple was very big, made of stone. It was surrounded by forest. There was nobody on the courtyard ot anywhere else, by that matter.
After a few minutes, the boy steped outside. "I…I…I can only heal the living…I cannot revive the dead yet…
They were all silent, the boy interrupted "oh and that thing about him being impotant to the world we know, is all a lie, he was the causer of all the mischief that befalls on our world! My name is Miko, and I'm a white magic priest, I'm also a descendant of a great line of summoners…"
"That's what the staff is for, huh…"asked Dante
"Don't feel bad for the boys death. You see our land was created by the Four Arcana Sages. My great-great-grandmother used her magic to trap them, so that no evil could use their power, but that bastard Kiko used MY staff and broke the seal. As for the result, Mundus is trying to find the sages so that they could give him imaginable power." said Miko.
"Miko…Kiko…are you two brothers, or something?" Dante and Trish asked
"Yes, and theres also my sister, Koki. Shes in a nearby village, studying the powers of Black magic"explained Miko.
"I'll help you battle Mundus, if you help me bury all the bodies in the cemitary. Maybe, from experience, I can revive my foolish brother, and his blue magic." He added.
The left the village of Tiriquai, Kiko's burial ground.
"Hey Miko, you don't happen to have a card, the High Priestess, do you?" asked Dante
"Yeah, I do. Here, you can have it!" said Miko
They left the village, which layed in ruins. Tiriquai was now only another ghost town, like each and everyone they visited.
"What happened to Kiko?" Dante thought "could it be that he was attacked in Mallet Island?"
Trish aproached Dante and snuggled against him, as they both walked away, while Miko leaded the way.
"We'll revive you, Kiko. Don't worry…" said Dante in a low tone" I'll make Mundus pay for all he has done!"
