Inner Demons
Chapter 2- Inside My Mind
When Dante awoke, he was without control of his body. That phrase was used loosely, however. He was watching as though from some distorted angle. He saw everything through his own eyes, but had no control.
He watched, feeling drained, as his body put on some loud music. As his body gripped Rebellion and drew it back, before thrusting forwards embedding it in the wall. Watched as He punched a hole in the wall with Beowulf.
What the hell is this?
Suddenly, as the he sat back in the chair, feet up on the desk, he felt a strange sensation, as though he were falling. A faint wave of dizziness hit him. Instinctively, he lashed out with his right arm.
It moved.
Dante jumped up, checking the feeling of each of his limbs in turn.
I'm back, baby!
Indeed
Dante whirled around, snapping his head in every direction in the office "Who said that?"
I did
Dante fought the urge to make a joke of that and reached for his Rebellion Sword. He took hold with both hands and succeeded in little more than pulling the hilt from the blade
Wow, he. I mean I…stuck that fast
Of course, Dante
Suddenly, Dante remembered why he had blacked out in the first place "Vergil!"
He's dead. You killed him
"But he was here" Dante shouted at the empty room
Yes, he was
"Then how-"
Enough. I have a proposal for you, son of Sparda
Dante froze "Couldn't you just have sent me a letter?" He sat down, giving up the search
If he wants to see me face to face, he can show himself
That I can, but I do not desire such a formality. Where was I…My proposal? Have been trapped here so long. So very long. And you, son of Sparda, are weak.
"Arius, Mundus, Niven, Beowulf, and Phantom" he counted off on his fingers "Vergil-"
They were weak. You are not AS weak, but still weak.
Dante sighed "You want to come here and say that?"
Not yet. As I said, I can help you, son of Sparda, to achieve true power. But you must be ready to heed my advice, and obey my orders at ALL times
"I'm no ones slave" he said indignantly
Very well
Dante felt that plummeting sensation again, and saw himself pacing the room, with no control over his legs.
"I can do this when I fell it is nessercery to teach you a lesson" the demon said, in Dante's voice, from Dante's lips "And I will"
BASTARD
"Yes, however, I merely desire rule of this shell for a while. Weather I take the freedom for myself, or we share"
How longs a while?
"Hard to say" Dante's voice said "Do we have a deal?"
