Call To Darkness: The Assassins' Story

Chapter 11: It Isn't Just A Dream

A/N: Okay... Another tirade again sorry. Everyone can skip this if they want to.
Lucian is pissing me off again. However, I am a relatively forgiving person but he keeps testing that patience. Is it going to be every time that you all keep fighting? I'm sick of it, literally. I cannot choose sides in any fight but he keeps forcing me to. When it comes down to it Ebony I would always choose you because you've been there for me for about five years. Wow been that long, shocking. Where as Lucian has been there for two. I'm at my breaking point. When I snap I REALLY snap. That's why I put out so many chapters here and so fast because writing calms me down fractionally for a short period of time.
Okay I'm done for the time being.

Onward with the chapter.

Asha leaned against Anna. Oddly enough she was warm and her scales didn't break her skin or hurt. A soft whispering in the back of her mind lulled her to sleep.

Welcome Asha.
Anna? What is this place?
It's a special dream realm.
A what?
A dream realm where what ever happens here can be felt in the real world.
She blinked quickly a few times. After her mind processed what was just said her mind turned south. Knowing that wasn't possible she shook the thoughts from her mind. As if Anna knew what she thought about she spoke;
What if that could happen? Would you want that gift?
THUMP
Anna chuckled as she saw Asha fall over. Once she got over the initial shock she was up again.
Are you serious?
Never been more serious in my entire life. This world isn't something to play with I know. This is my gift to you however.
What for?
Taking care of me so long ago.
Anna turned away to go back to the real world but stopped in half turn. The catch is you have to find him and make him yours.
Without another word she was gone. Asha was was at a loss for what to do. So in taking Anna's advice she began to walk to try and find Virgil in some way. After a moment or two moments of walking in darkness she entered a broken down city. The place was poorly lit and the buildings were crumbling. Swift movements amoung the shadows made her start.
she called.
Come temptress, a voice called from a distance.
Virgil come on, I'm not going to hunt you down.
Who said anything about me being Virgil? a hissing voice taunted.
A figure detached from the shadows. His obsidian locks flowed freely down his back. His pale amber eyes glittered dangerously. Her senses were on fire. Danger was written in ever move he made.
What do you want? she asked knowing that was a stupid question.
You of course Temptress.
Asha hated this guy already. Looking around she tried to think of something fast. A flash of white and blue caught the corner of her eye. That was to good to be true and therefore she was wary.
I know Anna sent you to this realm to rejoin that dark Sparda twin, but I won't allow it.
What makes you think you can stop me? she snarled/
I will make sure that you can't reach him.
I am a true devil so I can make it to him.
Is that so?
Yes, it is. Are you Chaos?
Random question and in a way yes I am. I was placed in this realm to stop people like Anna from playing the hero. (almost put two e's in there.)
What do you mean?
Oh she didn't tell you? She's getting rather forgetful these days. When the two of you mate you'll wake up in your lovers arms. Useful tactic isn't it?
You like hearing yourself talk don't you?
Not really. He won't save you.
Anger raced through her like wild fire. Her dark wings fanned out and flames formed in her hands. Without thought she leapt forward to slice this Chaos minion in half. He dodged to the left.
You missed.
I didn't though.
The shadow from before drove a familiar kitana into Chaos's chest. Quickly drawing it out with a swift strike he sliced the head off. The head slid one way and the body the other. Blood remained on the blade with a flick of his wrist the blood was thrown off the blade. He sheathed it easily. Time spanned back to normal. Asha let her rage go. It flowed away from her like water.
So you made it?
The figure stepped out of the darkness to reveal Virgil. Something was off but she couldn't place it.
Anna told me you'd be here.
That's what she told me as well.
What should we do now?
I'll lead you home.

I know and we will do that.
she said sternly as she stopped.
Come on, he said insistently.
Something was wrong. His aura was off by a few hundred degrees. Asha stood her ground. A smirk graced her features as she approached him in a seductive manner. She ran a finger over the dragon on his coat.
For trying to be like Virgil you suck at it.
So you noticed. What to do now?
He let the illusion melt it was Chaos again.
You know I'm starting to dislike you.
Isn't that sweet?
Asha was going to strangle Anna when they met up again. Of course Virgil might protect his sister-in-law from her. You know if you find Devil May Cry you'll be able to find him easier.
Why are you telling me this?
Because it won't be that easy to find the Sparda twins.
We'll see.
Chaos vanished again laughing mechanically. The sound resonated through the place. Looking around she tried to get her baring on where she was. Lifting her head up she looked at the star filled sky. The stars winked at her.
Look to your heart, Asha,' Anna's voice rang in her head.

Use what you know about him to find him.'
I can try.
It's how I found Dante so long ago. We met in dreams before we even met in person.'
That's comforting to know.
Find him Asha.'
Asha closed her eye and let her aura flow out around the place. When her aura touched something cold and clean she nearly died in relief. A smile that would put the sun to shame lit up her face. Spreading her wings she leapt into the sky. Her power flowed around her in waves. The wind lapped lightly around her as she winged towards Devil May Cry. Something flashing red caught her attention and it was the annoying blinking of Dante's tacky sign. She landed softly on the front porch. The door opened as she landed. A half naked Virgil stood there. She blinked for a moment and thought it was Dante at first. (he didn't have a shirt on. Just his pants and boots.) The color of the pants gave him away as Virgil.
she breathed.
What took you? Anna said to be waiting for you.
I had trouble with Chaos.
That asshole will pay. Dante's about ready to go on a killing spree.
Figures. He can't hold his temper where she's concerned.
Male devils tend to be very possessive of what's ours.
No kidding really? So are the females buddy.
Is that so?
she growled as she stalked forward to stand in front of him.
His scent washed over her. The scent was the same as before cold,clean water. Right at that moment she wished that he had a shirt so she could pull him forward and kiss him senseless. He however beat her to it. Hauling her forward into a passionate kiss. Once they broke for air he growled;

Always your and you always mine, she muttered against his lips.
He picked her up carefully mindful of her spread wings as he made his way to his room. From what Anna told him he didn't want to take her on the front porch only to end up there when they woke.Getting into his room was easy but what to do next was the difficult part. Virgil wasn't virgin by any means but he really loved this one. He wanted to do thing right, for her.
(okay reminder. I am not good at writing stuff like this. So what I'm going to do it start out then imply what's happening so you can use your imaginations.)
Virgil sat her carefully on the bed. Asha stared into his eyes lovingly. His hand slowly ran over her cheek to tilt her face up so he could place a light kiss on her lips. There auras were mixing so they were as calm as the could be. She wrapped her arms around his neck drawing him closer as they fell backwards. Hit nipped and kissed up her neck. He couldn't remember when their clothes vanished but all he knew was their naked bodies were sandwiched together. His hands ran up and down her body and hers did like wise.
(you expected deceit but not this time Chaos is planning against Anna now bad planning)

In the Real world downstairs

Dante stared as he heard a thump coming from his brothers room. Ebony was sitting on the other couch near the window. Lucian was out doing something. His sister had speculations but didn't voice them. Inside Dante was quaking with and anger and loneliness. He missed Anna. She was everything to him.
Stupid ass did he have to do that here? Dante growled being distracted by the moans coming from upstairs.
That's the only way she'd find him Dante.

Ebony didn't know how to tell Dante what Anna had done for Asha. He'd die if he knew his mate was all by herself alone with Chaos. Well spit it out Ebony I know you know something. Why is Asha upstairs with Virgil.
Do you remember the dream realm?
Yeah what about it?
Anna sent Asha back through the dream realm.

She saw his eyes bleeding from their normal color to the color of his devil trigger eyes. If she had time to be afraid she would of been. Another thump and even louder moaning broke their silence. Dante was getting furious.

Dante calm down. She's safe as long as she's in her dragon form.
Not entirely.
They whipped around to face the open door. Dayus stood there in his wolf form. (reminder again: Dayus is a werewolf.)
Ebony asked.
What do you mean not entirely? Dante demanded.
You didn't know? Chaos is a were dragon too.
Dante was blazing in fury now. If that son of a bitch hurt her and caused any damage then he'd make sure personally that he was sent to the darkest depths of hell where Mundus resided. However I wouldn't be to worried about Chaos though there is a bigger guy that you need to worry about when it comes to her.
And that is?
He calls himself Destruction. No one knows who he really is.
Ebony sat back trying to take in everything the werewolf had said. This made things more complicated and if Dante lost both mother and child he'd go Sparda on everything and die. Of course Dante didn't know about the child growing within his mate.
Thanks for the help Dayus.
Of course, he said then to himself, my lady.'
Ebony was at a loss now. From the quiet Virgil and Asha were done and would soon wake up together. Maybe in a few days Anna could do the same thing to get back to Dante. So all they could do was wait. Dayus left the pair alone. The tangible waves coming off Dante were setting his inner beast off and that wasn't good.
Dante really calm down.
I can, Anna...
There is a chance she could get herself out of there too just the way she did with Asha.


She held off on the just be patient because that would set him off again. That was all they needed.

Elsewhere...

Anna laid down in her dragon form and drifted to sleep dreaming of Dante knowing that someday she and he be rejoined.
