A Griffon dies

A/N: This is the third chapter for my story. Griffon is going to explain about how Nelo Angelo had gone bad.

Crystal woke up from her concussion and found herself sitting in a mid-day bed, her sword was placed neatly on a nearby stool that was next to the bed. A candle was burning brightly.

"Where the heck am I?" Crystal asked herself.

Griffon walked up to the bed. "Ah, you're awake, come join me and the son of Sparda." Griffon said. Crystal followed Griffon to a room and found Dante sitting on a chair that was next to a mid-day coffee table. A bookshelf containing books that had information on the human and demon world was against the wall.

"I'll make us some tea, would you like some son of Sparda?" Griffon asked.

"Thanks, but no thanks." Dante said.

"Very well." Griffon replied as he left to get some tea. Griffon then returned with a tray in his arms. He then placed the tray on the table.

"I knew that someone would arrive to help us, but I never expected the son of Sparda to suddenly appear in the demon world out of thin air." Griffon chuckled.

Dante got out of his seat and looked at Griffon with cold eyes.

"Enough, what do you know about my father and the demon world?" Dante asked as he grabbed Griffon by the collar.

"I know little about your father, but I know much about the demon world. Long ago, we had a kind and considerate ruler after Mundus and Argosax were destroyed by you a couple years ago, but unfortunately, he died and in his heir, he gave me, Nightmare and Phantom parts of the demon world to rule, however, with little power he had, he revived Nelo Angelo to rule the fourth part of the demon world, the realm of darkness, he was not satisfied and he became greedy and wanted to rule all four realms, the three of us quickly protected our realms." Griffon explained.

"But how could my brother be-" he was then cut off from what he said when a Goatling came rushing in, knocking the door down. He was seriously injured.

"My lord, the forest...is being attacked by...one of Nelo Angelo's servants." The Goatling general said, he then died.

"This is not good." Griffon said. He then looked back at Crystal and Dante. "Dante, Crystal, help me in battle."

Dante flipped his "coin of fate" and it landed on heads. "Let's rock." Dante said.

Dante, Griffon, and Crystal quickly got out into the forest and saw a giant Half cobra, half scorpion demon appeared in front of them.

"By the orders of Nelo Angelo, I, Snake man have been ordered to destroy the ruler of the forest." Snake man hissed.

"Not while I'm still here, you'll have to kill me first." Griffon said. He then transformed into his demon form and fought against Snake Man. However, Snake Man's power far surpassed Griffon's power. Snake man grabbed Griffon and slammed him against a tree. It impaled Griffon in the chest.

"Now this part of the realm belongs to Nelo Angelo." Snake man shouted.

"Not if we have anything to say about it." Dante said as he Devil Triggered. Crystal did the same.

"Ah, more challengers. This will be easy. Once I kill you, I'll bring my master your corpses as gifts." Snake man said as he slashed at Dante and Crystal. Dante shot several bullets at Snake man, but they were smashed into pieces due to the demon's rough hide. Crystal quickly punctured the Snake man's skin with her sword. He let out a yelp of pain.

"You little worms, I'll get you sooner or later." Snake man cursed. Dante, however, got back up and sliced the snake in half. Crystal retrieved her sword from Snake man's skin and the demon gave up.

"I can't believe it, I have been beaten by-" He was then cut off when an evil laugh appeared and a demonic knight appeared from the smoke.

"Master, please give me one last bit of strength." Snake man begged.

"Why should I give you any extra energy when you failed me?" the knight questioned.

Snake man couldn't find a good explanation and panicked.

"I don't know master. But please don't punish me for my failure." He begged.

"SILENCE!" The knight shouted as he pulled out his sword and destroyed what was left of Snake man and the demon was destroyed. Dante took notice to the demon knight.

"Who the hell are you?"
