Well, here I am again! Sorry I didn't update soon, but I was busy with other stories I am writing. And I was also busy with something everyone is busy with once in a while...life. Anyways, enjoy and please review!!!
Trish
I finally reached the dark alleyway in which Devil Never Cry. I was happy to finally be in a dark place. Damn that sunlight. I shouldn't have come out of my house at daytime. But then again, if I didn't, the cop wouldn't have stopped me and I probably wouldn't have discovered my new power. I knocked on the door which released a lot of dust as soon as I made contact with it. The doors emitted a cracking noise, but other than that there was no reply. 'Maybe he's out on a job' I thought as I prepared to leave. But just then, the doors opened behind me.
"Hello Rick" a female voice greeted from behind me.
I turned around and saw the woman that made my heart beat faster than normal. It was none other than Trish. The blonde stepped aside to let me in. I took a seat behind Dante's desk.
"Uhh...hey..." I nervously attempted to smile.
I examined Dante's desk. I opened a drawer and saw two sunglasses, a pocket knife, and a picture. It was a picture of a woman similar to Trish. But it wasn't Trish since she had a different hair style. The picture was in black and white, but I could tell the woman was blonde. And her face was almost exactly as Trish's. I showed the picture to Trish arching an eyebrow.
"Is this you?" I asked her.
"No, that's Dante's mother" she replied.
"Wait a minute...you're the clone of Dante's mother!" I realized in shock.
"Duh" the beautiful blonde said dully.
"Dante told me that Mundus had cloned his mother, but he never told me that it was you" I explained.
"Well now you know..." Trish stated in a sad tone.
I could tell something was wrong. Dante and Trish didn't get along, and I needed to know why. I knew I would be able to help.
"What's wrong? Does it have to do with Dante?" I questioned.
Trish looked at me surprised. She barely nodded. Her mouth opened slightly in surprise.
"Is it that obvious?" she asked.
I nodded in reply.
"Well...you see...after Dante and I left Mallet Island, we sort of..." she struggled to explain.
"Yes?" I insisted.
"...we were in love," Trish finally admitted, "but that love was not meant to be."
"Why? You loved him and he loved you. What was so wrong?" I interrogated.
"Well I looked like Dante's mother, so that sometimes made Dante question our love..." tears began to form in Trish's eyes.
At that moment, I realized that I was doing something bad. I was sort of forcing her to talk about something she didn't want to.
"Oh I'm sorry; I didn't know it was that bad. If you don't want to talk about it you don't have to" I apologized.
"No, it's okay. I do want to talk about it. I've kept it bottled up inside for a year now" the devil woman assured me.
"Fine then, continue" I pleaded.
"One night, it got out of hand...Dante..." she continued to struggle.
"Yes? What happened to Dante?" I asked her.
Just when she was about to speak, Dante came in. We both turned our heads at Dante's direction. Dante noticed Trish's eyes were filled with tears.
"Trish..." he said blankly.
"I'm sorry we couldn't finish talking Rick...I gotta go" the blonde devil apologized.
She grabbed her coat that was lying on the sofa in the corner of the room and left. When she passed by Dante, I could see a little reaction in Dante's eyes. Trish slammed the doors and left without a word. Dante sighed and cracked his neck. He signaled with his hand for me to get off his chair. I obeyed not wanting any trouble with the cold-blooded half-devil. The white-haired man crossed his legs over the desk and rested his head on his hands. He sighed again and spoke.
"Do you know what she was doing here?" he asked with his eyes closed.
I was about to shake my head when I remembered that the demon slayer had his eyes closed.
"I thought so" Dante replied.
That startled me. How did he know I was about to shake my head? Well anyways, I had more important things to worry about.
"Listen Dante," I began; standing in front of his desk, "we have to talk."
"If it's about Trish, then I don't wanna talk about it" Dante snapped, his eyes still remaining shut.
"Don't worry, it has nothing to do with her" I assured him.
Dante nodded signaling that if it had nothing to do with Trish, it was okay to talk.
"Well...I discovered a new power" I admitted.
"And?" the relaxed hunter asked me to continue.
"I have the ability to telepathically talk to demons" I continued.
At that same moment, the half-devil opened his eyes and looked at me coldly. I felt a chill go up my spine but didn't react. I knew Dante would snap.
"Let me guess, and you were wondering if I could use the demons to help me fight other demons?" Dante's blue eyes began to turn red like that night we met.
I gulped and nodded.
When I spotted Dante opening his mouth to talk again I reacted suddenly and interrupted him.
"Oh come on, not all demons are bad! There are some who serve the demon lord while some want to serve their own Jesus!!" I spat.
Dante's eyes widened in surprise. I could tell I had just done a bad move.
"Whoa, relax dude! I was just going to say that maybe it could work!" Dante attempted to calm me down.
"You were!? That's excellent! I thought you were going to snap about it all day!!!" I cried happily.
"That's why I suggest you leave before I do" he recommended.
I nodded cheerfully and headed towards the door. I was so excited Dante had agreed to try it out sometime. I knew it would work. It just had to work! When I grabbed the doorknob, Dante called my name.
"Yeah?" I asked turning my head at his direction.
"You should ask Trish for dinner sometime. I can tell you have a big crush on her. That way, she'll be able to tell you the rest of the story of why we ended up like this. Don't worry about how old she is, I don't even know that myself. She probably doesn't have an age. And even if she did, she was "born" a year ago so she's a two year-old" Dante smirked at his sarcastic comment.
I smiled and felt another chill up my spine. But this one was different. This was sort of a lover boy chill. I still remembered where she lived, so I would definitely invite her for dinner one day.
"Now if you don't mind, I'm gonna get some sleep. So shoo off" Dante ordered sarcastically.
I smiled again and left. I was excited about Dante accepting to get help from the demons that served me, and also excited about Trish. I left towards my house again thinking about Trish's beautiful face.
Well that's it for the newest chapter! I know it's a bit romantic, but Rick has to fall in love with someone! I'm trying to explore how a hollow guy slowly becomes more human. So I needed love too. There will be more romance between Rick and Trish, you have been warned. Now please, review!
