Anyways here is chapter 2.
Again, I do not own ANY of the Devil May Cry Characters!
Chapter 2: The Mysterious Descending Aura
"Alright boys! Time to blow out the candles!" Eva replied in a cheerful tone of voice as she stood at the side watching her boys make their attempt to blow out they're birthday candles.
In an instant the fire on the candles were blown away and the boys were anticipating their own big slices of cake.
"I have something for you…" Eva replied as she pulled out an amulet from behind her back to present to her children.
"Virgil…Dante…Happy Birthday." Eva replied in a joyful tone of voice as she handed the first birthday present to her children.
"Oh wow…look at…!" Virgil replied in an excited tone of voice as he admired the beautiful stone he held in the palm of his hand.
"This is awesome…" Dante replied, thrilled to hold the charm the very same that resembled the crimson colored shine of the sword that bore his Father's own name.
"I want chocolate!"
"No I want chocolate!"
Ha…ha…you both can get an equally big piece of chocolate cake…here…" Replied Eva in a sincere tone of voice as she began to slice pieces of chocolate cake for her loved ones.
"Alright!" The boys replied in satisfied tones of voices as they gathered around the big cake.
"Enjoy!" Eva replied as she handed both Dante and Virgil they're fair shares of the delectable treat.
"Yeah!" The boys replied as they dug their forks into the delicious pastry.
"Ohh! Ha…ha…not too fast now…" Eva replied in a gentle voice as she watched her boys scarf down their delicious pieces of cake. She chuckled as she saw the boys finish off they're cake and run after they're presents.
"Wow! There's too many!" Virgil replied as he looked at all the presents that were placed before him.
"If you like…I'll gladly take a few of them off you're hands little brother!" Dante replied in a sly voice as he picked up the present in front of Virgil.
"You maybe the oldest…but because I'm the youngest I get the most presents!" Virgil replied in an excited tone of voice as he took that present away from Dante and began to open it for himself. "Right Mom?"
"That's not right…" Dante muttered as he gave his little brother a half smile noticing his brother's own sense of cunning.
"And it isn't true either." They're mother added.
"Huh!" Virgil asked in a surprise tone of voice assuming that the same birthday rules applied to they're situation.
"You're both the same age so you both get the amount of presents." Eva replied in a serene tone of voice as she split the twelve presents that sat before them and distributed them fairly.
"Aww mann…" Virgil muttered, as he was proven wrong of his opinion.
"Ha!" Dante replied as he started tearing at his presents.
"Yeah…laugh it up…" Virgil muttered as he started to open his presents.
"No need! I'm having a great birthday!" Dante replied as he opened his third birthday present.
"Cool! I got a sword and a shield Dante!" Virgil replied in an excited tone of voice as he showed off his great present to his older brother.
"Yeah…but I got a gun…" Dante replied as he pulled out the large silver and onyx plated firearm.
"A what!" Eva cried as she observed the revolver with her own two hands.
"Just kidding! It's only a model gun…I can't use it." Dante replied in a calm voice as he pressed the trigger button to release nothing but a little sound that sounded just like an actual gun shot.
"That's just like you're father to send you such an awkward play toy…" Eva replied in a relieved tone of voice as she handed Dante's present back to him.
"Hmmm…" Virgil muttered as he occupied himself with his new toys.
"What's up little brother?" Dante asked as he pressed the buttons on other toy, one that was also a model gun, but apparently designed for future terms.
"…Nothing…" Virgil replied as he dropped his shield and placed the sword on his back, walking further into the garden away from the party, taking his other presents and sitting down in the grass away from Dante and Eva.
"…Virgil…?" Eva asked in a soft voice as she scanned the area for her son.
"What's wrong Mom?" Dante asked as he took his new toy gun and placed it on his leg strap so it wouldn't be lost.
"…Where's Virgil?" Eva asked as she continued to look around for her son.
"I think he went further into the garden." Dante said as he looked ahead of him into the garden.
"That boy…" Eva muttered sadly as she thought of how miserable her son Virgil has been all his life without his Father around him.
"What?" Dante asked as he dropped his toys and sat in front of his Mother giving her all of his attention.
"He's still upset…" Eva replied as she gripped her locket, the one Sparda had given her long ago.
"Upset? You mean about Dad not being here? C'mon!" Dante replied.
"Yes Dante…it upsets Virgil that much to know his father isn't around as often as he should be."
"What about me? He's my Dad to…don't you think I'm hurt by the fact he's not around as much…?" Dante asked in a melancholic voice as he sulked a little in his Mother's lap.
"Oh Dante…I…" Eva began in a compassionate tone of voice as she rubbed her son's head to comfort him.
"DAD!" Virgil yelled.
"What?" Eva asked in alarm, not being able to believe such words.
"DAD!" Virgil yelled again.
"Dad? Here!" Dante asked, perplexed to hear that his father could be in the area.
"That can't be…" Eva muttered. "He should still be of on Mahla Island…how could he have returned by now?" She wondered as she heard the eminent and constant cry of her son Virgil saying that his father, her husband, Sparda, had finally returned.
"C'mon Mom!"
"Yes! Yes Dante!" She replied in a sharp voice as Dante yanked her by her gown and insisted that she come with him to see if his Father had truly returned. "Yes…lets go and…see you're Father…" She muttered as she still couldn't believe that Sparda might of returned home to his family.
As Dante and Eva rounded a corner they found Virgil in front of the courtyard wall.
"…Virgil…" Eva began in a low tone of voice, as she wasn't at all convinced that Sparda could of come back.
"Did you see it Mom? Huh did ya?" Virgil asked in a curious tone of voice as he squeezed his mother's left hand.
"See what Virgil?" Dante asked in a befuddled tone of voice as he scanned the area for any possible sightings of his Father.
"Oh c'mon Dante! You didn't see the bright red flash!" Virgil asked, surprised that someone who shared almost the same type of instinctive intellect didn't see what he saw.
"I did see a flash…but…that doesn't mean that it's our Dad Virgil…"
"It's gotta be! C'mon Mom! I know you believe me don't ya?"
"…Virgil…darling…how…how can you be positive that that was Sparda?" Eva asked in a compassionate and hesitant tone of voice as she looked at her son with sad motherly eyes.
"I…I…ohh…I just believe it is Mother…isn't that enough?" Virgil asked in an innocent tone of voice as he tried to convince his Mother to help him find Sparda.
"You never know…right Mom?" Dante added, to assure his brother that he had at least a little faith in him and his sighting.
"…Right…" Eva replied as she smiled back at her son for having the decency to not disrespect his brother's beliefs.
"Help me blast this wall! I think he's back there!" Virgil asked as he positioned himself to attack the concrete wall in front of them.
"Alright then…" She replied as she lifted her index finger and pointed it towards the center of the wall.
"Stand back Virgil! Remember what happened last time?" Dante ordered as he pulled Virgil away from the wall so Eva would have a clear shot.
"Yeah…Marcus got fried…" Virgil replied as he remembered they're pet chicken that they caught when they were seven but lost it to a fiery death when they're Mom mistook the bird for a demon bird, like the Puia and burnt it to a crisp. "He was a good bird…" Virgil sighed as he remembered the good times he had with the flamboyant bird.
"He tasted really good too…" Dante replied in an indifferent tone of voice as he
remembered after the chicken died how his Mom cooked it and served it to them for dinner.
"Well…you two will be sautéed chickens as well if you don't get out of my way." Eva replied as she focused all of her energy into her index finger to enable her to fire a single cutting beam into the wall.
"Woah!" Dante yelled as he felt the intense power of the blast created by his mother.
"Al right Mom!" Virgil yelled as he walked through the rubble and into the garden.
"Okay…lets move out." Eva replied as she started to walk through the garden with her son's Dante and Virgil.
"I think the flash faded out over there Mom." Virgil replied as he pointed straight ahead of them towards a gaudy and luxurious looking water fountain.
"Hmmm…behind the fountain?" Eva asked as she began to walk over to the beautiful looking water source.
"Yeah!" Virgil yelled in an enthusiastic voice.
"Al right then…" Eva replied as she continued to follow Virgil deeper into the backyard.
"And it's still flashing! C'mon Mom! Dante! Lets go see Dad!" Virgil replied in an energized voice as he ran towards the fountain, towards the red blaze of light.
"DAD! DAD!" Virgil yelled as he looked around for Sparda.
"What happened to the flash Virgil?" Dante asked as he stood around the area looking for the same red flash he saw a minute ago.
"I dunno…guess it died out again…OH! I see it! Over here!" Virgil yelled as he ran ahead of his Mother and Dante to see the light for himself.
"Aww Dad I knew you were here! I knew you would come back to us! We've missed you so much!" Virgil replied in a sentimental voice as he went over to the bright red light.
"I knew you would come back! I knew you would! Oh…HUH!" Virgil replied as he looked again at the red light that was now fading away to reveal someone else, someone that defiantly wasn't his father, the legendary demon slayer Sparda, but something that he felt was totally unexpected.
That was kinda short…
Oh well…did you like it?
I'd appreciate it if you review…
Wondering about that weird aura in the sky aren't ya?
I know you are…
You can't deny it!
So here is chapter 3!
