"So the tower is a mirror of the Temin-ne-gru," said Vergil absently.
"It would appear so," answered Michaella. Dante leaned against the wall beside them, intent on having what remained of the bottle of vodka form Michaella's dresser. Jordan and Josef weren't listening. They had their own conversation happening. Jenn and Aaron sat on the floor together waiting.
"Well, from the outside it would appear like the Temin-me-gru, but it's really it's sister tower, whatever that means. Apparently when the Temin-ne-gru came before it left a ripple affect over the city. The Temin-ne-gru you could think of as a gateway while this tower you could call a military base or keep." Michaella continued with her lecture to Vergil, who could actually see what she was reading from on the screen.
"Can we go blow it up now?" asked Dante.
"Not yet, we have to prepare," Michaella said.
"Why?"
"Do you want to die?" came the answer
"Anything for you to be quiet" he retorted. Michaella flushed pink.
"Enough, do what you will, Dante and I shall wait" Vergil said, quelling the argument before it started.
Michaella logged off of her computer and moved to her closet. Upon opening the door Dante's jaw hit the floor. There was every type of weapon imaginable, save those that Michaella and the others couldn't wield because of their human strength.
"She has a trident. Verg she has a fucking trident," Dante said, astonished.
Michaella grabbed her weaponry, which consisted mostly of small dagger and knifes, along with two submachine guns. Jenn hefted an army rifle, two pistols and a short sword. Josef and Jordan took they're assault rifles, pistols and matching long swords. Evan, who had finally awaked due to the clicking of the ammunition being chambered and magazines slapped into their slots in the guns. He groggily walked to the closet and took up a katana, not nearly as ornate and powerful as Virgil's, as well as his own submachine guns. Aaron, the last to reach the closet took a piston and a submachine gun, long with his own sabre. He also hefted a backpack, filled with clips and magazines of all calibers to go into their guns.
"Aren't you two going to grab anything?" inquired Jenn, still uneasy about Dante's and Vergil's remarkable combat skills.
"We have everything we need," Vergil stated, leaning over to Dante he whispered, "Do not use devil trigger unless you need to, I'd rather not have them turn on us for having devil blood in our veins"
"I understand," Dante whispered back, knowing what his brother meant and was serious about it.
Gunshots rained outside abruptly. "It would appear the police is far more capable then we first thought," Aaron observed. Josef ran his hands through his hair,
"I would think we should at least give them some assistance, they could make for an excellent distraction ' He said to the group.
"All right, but only for a time, we don't want to get caught up in anything that would hinder us from our objective," Michaella stated. Vergil agreed, he liked the distraction idea brought up by Josef.
The moved up the stairs and looked out the doorway. Seeing it was clear they immediately moved towards the gunfire. Thankfully they came up behind the police blockade so they wouldn't have to cut their way through demons to reach the men and women they were supposed to support. Coming up behind them and taking positions near the front, putting themselves in the way of the demons to get to the police, who were about twenty strong. A wave of hell prides and hell lusts came at them. The automatic fire cut through the lower sin demon easily enough, with Ebony and Ivory as well the wave made it nowhere clear the police.
Vergil, not one for guns came up behind the police officer in charge and told him to support the teens in anyway they could, however minimal they could. The police officer, which did not like to ordered around by someone half his age. His initial response was cut short from Yamato being drawn. He quickly began barking Vergils orders to the remaining officers.
Jenn looked at Dante occasionally. He stood steadfast in the relentless wave of demons coming their way. After a long moment it struck her, he never reloaded. Ever. His guns continued to fire bullets from a clip that probably could only hold around seven bullets. How was that possible? It entered into a long list of questions in Jenns head about the two twins. "We really don't know them," She thought aloud.
"What?" asked Michaella, who crouched beside her, reloading one of her guns.
"I said we don't know them. It's just come to me. Dante's guns never seem to need to be reloaded, his sword is far too large for a normal human being, we've never been to their house, and they have silver hair. Hell do you even know their last name?" She said.
"Hmm." Was all Michaella could answer with. She got up and slowly walked over to Aaron, careful not to lose her shooting rate or accuracy.
"Aaron, Jenn has just made me realize that we know nothing about Dante and Vergil, all we really know are their names and that they are twins. There is also something odd about their weapons." Michaella said.
"I know, I have been suspicious for a time now, especially about Dante. His reflexes are amazing. Both are extremely good demon hunters, which raises the question of the Order not know about them. Vergil on the other hands given us nothing to really accuse him of, either he is normal or he is far more cautious about it, which is more likely," Aaron answered.
As they spread the word to Josef, Jordan and Evan, who all took it as a slight surprise Vergil took notice. He moved up to Dante, "I believe they know, we must either tell them or show them, but leave it to me, alright?" He said
"Fine." Came the sharp reply
As Vergil marched back to his waiting place behind the police cars, absently twirling Yamato before returning it to its resting place Michaella scurried over to him. "Vergil. We need to know, what are you and Dante?" She said, almost sad.
"We are not your enemy Michaella, always remember that." He said, intent on not revealing what Dante and he were unless he had to.
Vergil pushed Michaella away, seeing the group of hell lusts that had broken their line, who seemed to want to kill Michaella. Michaella screamed as she saw Vergil stabbed by more than six of the hell lusts. The hell lusts let out a throaty laugh as they stared at Michaella. She backed away, tears streaming down her face for the man that stood with his head slumped down, being held up only by the scythes still in his body.
Another laugh filled the air, this one far less demonic. Vergils head slowly raised, his eyes closed. Suddenly his eyes flew open and he drew Yamato and in a flash all of the hell lusts were turned to dust. A blue aura surrounded Vergil as the blades of the scythes in his body sprung out and flew into a group of demons coming towards the blockade, sending them flying back. Michaella saw Virgil's body. He was unharmed, even his clothes were no longer ripped. The others in the demon hunting crew drew up from the sudden retreat of the demons and looked at Vergil and Dante.
The blue aura still surrounding Vergil, dancing like blue fire while sparks of electrical power moved through his body. In his eyes danced a fire of power no true human could match. Michaella looked to Dante, the same fire surrounded his body, only red this time, the same lightning coursed around his body. In his eyes as well, perhaps even more so than Vergil, came the same power. She knew, without a doubt in her mind that she had been friends with and now partners to two of the most powerful denizens of hell.
"This Michaella is what we are." Vergil said calmly.
