Deku Meets Dante. Is this a good thing or a bad one? Part 7:Akujin's Trump Card . . .
Disclaimer: Ah, you should know by now. I don't own Dante. . .*hugs herself* or anything else. I only own Deku, Akujin, and the late, Damian. Neko is my friend's character, and to Star Dragonmaiden I say: "Maybe he will and Maybe he won't you'll just hafta find out."=P
The spike withdrew, back into the wall and the blood-vessel-bonds, withdrew back in as well. Dante fell forward, into Deku's arms. She looked at him, then removed her arms from around him, and laid him back against the ground. "You've gone too far, you animal." Deku said in a calm, but pissed off voice. "You'll be ok, Dante." She whispered to him, as she looked into his eyes, which were now half closed. "I know you will, you had better be." She put her cheek to his for a second then drew back.
"For once, the roles are reversed, eh, Kitten?" Dante asked, looking up into Deku's eyes. He smiled at her. His smile faded and his eyes rolled back into his head.
Deku stood up from Dante and glared at Akujin, who now had his arms crossed. "What a touching moment." He snorted. "Should the sappy music start anytime soon, Deku?"
Deku didn't say anything, she just stood there. Her black eyes showing a feral rage. She took Dante's sword from underneath him, and held it in an attack stance.
"Do you think you can wield the sword Sparda? When you are not a descendant of his?" Akujin laughed at her.
It was true, she could barely hold it up, as if that was going to stop her. Deku growled and jumped, she came down slashing countless times with the gigantic blade.
Akujin stepped out of the way of each swipe, with ease. "You don't have a clue to what you're doing, do you little girl?" He caught the sword between his thumb and index finger. "Allow me to teach you a lesson about swords, young one." He grabbed her by the throat. "You don't take a demon sword, if you're not a descendant of the original owner." He choked her more and lifted her off the ground.
Deku dropped Sparda and glared. She clawed his left eye, by raking her nails into it.
Akujin yelped with pain loudly and threw her against the wall. "You little bitch!" He drew a blade of his own, a small dagger. He used his power to throw her against the same wall that Dante was previously against. He emitted a wave of energy that was like a wall of gravity. It crushed her against the pulsing wall.
Akujin looked amused as he watched Deku's skin begin to tear open into small but painful wounds. It was as if he was throwing small knives at her. He laughed and got in her face, still holding her up with an immense power. He commanded the wall to hold her, just as it had held Dante, with the blood vessels.
She glared at him as his eye began to heal again.
He ran another finger down her cheek and it opened into another small wound. "It's time for lesson two, you feral cat." He pushed his dagger against her right leg, midway up her thigh. "When it comes to devils, it isn't about strength or speed. It is about power." He pushed it into her thigh. Piercing flesh and muscle, until it reached it's hilt.
Deku bit into her bottom lip. She wouldn't scream. Not for the life of her. She wouldn't scream and let him know that he was winning.
"Ah, like the Son of Sparda. Too proud to shed tears. Too proud to let on, that you can be hurt. Maybe there is a use for you." He ran a claw down her neck and breast, cutting through the leather dress and exposing her partially. "You can be my amusement."
"Let me down, you fucking pervert! You're just as bad as your goddamned lackey!"
"Such language." He slapped her cheek lightly, out of amusement, just to hear her growl at him. "Shall I let you in on a secret, young one?" He asked as he peeled away part of the shredded dress. "Damian was a shadow of me. Had I chosen, you wouldn't have been able to kill him. He was part of me, the whole time."
"You make me sick." She spit in his face.
Akujin slapped her harder and gave an amused look as her black and red eyes glared down at him. "Yes, you will make good for amusement. You'll be eating from my hand, by the time I'm done with you." He put his hand to her cheek.
Deku turned her head away. "Don't you have anything better to do, other than to piss me off?"
"Actually, yes I do." He put his hand under the bottom of her dress, and began sliding it up her thigh. "The first stage in taming you. Showing you that you're powerless against anything I do to you."
Deku's eyes widened. "Get away from me! Stop it!" She tried her hardest to get her legs away from the wall, so that she could kick him, despite how much her injured leg was hurting her. "Stop!"
He smiled at this and leaned near her, so that he could kiss her.
Deku tried to get out of his kiss, not at all liking the feel of his snakelike tongue forcing it's way into her mouth. She bit him hard, with her fangs digging deep into his tongue.
Akujin drew back from her and glared hard, he punched her hard in her stomach.
Deku coughed out the piece of his tongue that she had bitten off, along with a mouthful of blood, her own and some of his. She smirked. "That'll teach you to put your tongue where it doesn't belong!"
Akujin licked his lips, his tongue had already regenerated. He grabbed her chin and glared into her eyes. "If you ever bite me again, Deku, I will break you in half and feed you to the shadows and fetishes! Do you understand me?"
"Fuck you." She spit in his face again.
Akujin punched her in the jaw. "Do you understand me?"
Deku again regained her smirk. "If you think for one moment, that I'm going to break, just because you roughed me up a bit...you've got another thing coming."
"If that is the way you will have it. I happen to like the idea of overpowering you to get my way." He trailed a finger the bare skin on her side.
"Stop it! Get your hands off me!" She growled and struggled against her bindings. "I swear, the second I get loose. . .I'll knock your head so far down between your shoulders, you'll hafta look around through your asshole!"
Akujin smiled at her threat. "Keep talking, Deku. You and I both know that you cannot break away from that wall." He ran his tongue up her neck and flicked it in her ear.
"You son of a bitch! Stop it!" She tried to electrocute him when he touched her again, but it was to no help. He simply ignored it.
"You should learn to watch your mouth. You wouldn't want to make me angry with you. I really don't think you would like me then." He slid his hand up her right thigh and snatched the dagger out.
Deku bit into her bottom lip again, refusing to scream.
Akujin got to his knee and looked at the wound. Blood was streaming down her thigh. He ran his tongue along the trail of blood, up to the wound, with Deku squirming the whole time. "Scream for me once, and I'll stop. I just want to know when I have power over you."
"I am going to kill you the instant I get down from here!"
"Still no?" He stood and looked into her eyes. "A little more torture is needed, then." He put his hand on her injured thigh, and inserted one clawed finger into the deep wound.
Deku hissed with pain and again bit into her bottom lip, this time, so hard that she made it bleed. "God...stop it." She said with her eyes winced shut.
"One scream, Deku. Go on, you know you can't hold out for very much longer." He moved his finger up a little, tearing her flesh more, making the wound longer.
Deku opened her eyes and glared hard at him, while panting, resisting the urge to let him have his way, and scream so hard that she'd lose her voice. "Fuck you. . . I'm not. . .gonna do it." She grunted with discomfort feeling his finger begin to move.
He pushed his finger deep down into her leg so that he could touch her bone, inside the wound. "Are you so sure about that, Deku?" He smiled at her. He could win this simply, by tearing her leg wide open, but where was the fun in that? Slowly torturing her into submission and humiliation, was much, much more amusing. "You see, it would be all too easy for me just to get it over with, and have you begging for my mercy." He withdrew his finger from her wound and sucked the blood from it.
"That's what you think. I don't beg for mercy." She had a slight cocky note in her voice, as she regained her smirk and looked directly into his nightmarish face. "I don't give a damn what you do to me." She would've crossed her arms, had she not been bound to the wall.
"You'd beg for mercy, just like any other pathetic human does." He put his cheek to hers. "Do you know why?"
Deku didn't say anything, she only growled loudly.
"Because, like all humans that I have come across, you think you're fearless. But, in the end all the fearless have one fear. They're scared to die, and that is why they all beg for mercy." He ran a claw down the left side of her dress, cutting a slit at her waist, hip, and thigh. "Ah, by the time I am done with you, you'll fear my name."
"Hey, what are you doing? Stop!" Deku started struggling again, as Akujin slid his hand into the back of her dress, through the slit he had just made. "Dammit, I said stop it! You fucking pervert, stop it! Get your hands off me!"
"No." Akujin said simply, as he raked his nails against her backside, giving her deep scratches.
"Why the hell are you doing this to me?" She again tried to pull away from the walls. "What did I ever do to you?"
"You never did anything. I was only interested in your unique blood type for my revival, at first. But, after seeing you put up a lovely fight with my shadow, I decided that I'd play a few games with you, since you're such a feisty little thing." He kissed her again, and felt Deku's urge to bite him grow strong. He loved how easy it was to make her loathe him. "And, in all truth, I have a fondness for you. You're so stubborn and arrogant that it would be a pleasure to degrade you down to a sniveling dog."
"You know, you're not going to get away Scott-free. The second you let down your guard, the instant that you fuck up and think you've won, I'm gonna beat your face in."
"No, no, Deku. You see, by that point in time, by the time that I've won, you wouldn't dare think of opposing me." He lowered his voice to a whisper, and leaned near her ear. "You'd be far from it. Opposing anything that I did to you would be the last thing you'd ever want to do."
"You really think that? Take your best shot. I dare you!"
"Ah, ah... you see, this is another lesson in devils. The more powerful we are, the more abilities we have. I know your thoughts, and what comes out of that loud mouth of yours is different than what's running through your mind. I don't think you want to dare me to knock you off your high horse."
"Well if you can look into my thoughts, look at this." She gained a smirk, as she put up an image in her mind.
Akujin checked her mind. What he saw, was a dark figure getting up off the ground, with a sword, a large black blade, in its hands. It was in the shape of a tall and slender man with bright red eyes. He laughed. "Quite the imagination, child." He said, sweeping some of her black hair behind her ear. "Who is that supposed to be?"
"My Dark Knight, in skin-tight armor." She smiled at Akujin, and pulled hard against her bonds and ripped them from the pulsing wall, then disappeared.
"A cute trick, Deku, but you are still in this room." Akujin scanned around slowly for her. He could feel her presence and her thoughts. A picture came into his mind, and she reappeared, sitting on the ground---unable to stand because of her leg wound--behind a larger figure that was standing. A man in black armor with bright red eyes, and a giant black blade-Sparda-in his hands. "No. . . Dante. . . I thought. . . you were. . .dead? You are dead. . .I. . .I killed you...myself! A . . . A spike. . . through. . . your heart!"
"Think again." Dante said with a malevolent smile, as he threw Sparda at Akujin, stabbing him through the stomach, and throwing him back against the wall where he and Deku had, at one point been restrained, and pinned him there. "I warned you that we'd finish this, just you and me."
Akujin looked at Dante with amusement."No, no, Son of Sparda. You forget, we are in my domain. As you would have an advantage in your world, I have the advantage in mine. So I play my trump card, now, and it shall win me the game. Deku, if you would be so kind as to assist me..." He smiled, as his yellow eyes glowed brighter than ever before...
And there's the end of Chapter 7! Another short one, I know, but if you review, I'll get Chapter 8 up here ASAP! Promise! Anyhow...Tell me what you think! I've gotta know!
Deku: She did it again!!!

Silver: How'd ya guess?
Deku::while clinging to Dante's leg:: Silver, when I get back up there I'm gonna beat your face in! Besides, the Desert Dweller needs to know who put that dent in his sword, and why bullet holes were in the seat of his MS cockpit!
Silver: Watch it Deku...you're not the author...I am...and what I say goes.
Dante: Dude! Deku, you're heavier than you look! Why don't you just fly back up onto the cliff?
Deku: Good idea...::lets go of Dante's legs and starts to float::
Silver: You know....what would happen if...::thinks of something::
Deku: Don't even-::screams as she plummets hundreds of feet to the bottom of the cliff:: You've still got writer's block!!!!
Silver: I'm the writer here, and what I say goes...therefore...you can't fly til Chapter 8 is posted ...
