Beginning of the end
Part 3
Dante and Lucia are now in complete shock for what had happened. The devil is in possession of Sparta's body. And Aurius' spirit is roaming free across the land. Now they are trying to find a way to enter the gates of hell. With the Argasax prophesey destroyed, there is very small chances of finding another way. Lucia is still concered about her life. Even though she knows that she was created by Aurius, and that she is now free, she is still worried about her purpose. But one thing was for sure. She loved Dante. Even though she never showed it, Dante could tell. But he didn't let it slow him down.
Dante came across and old mill that was connected to a mine. He could feel a demonic aura coming from the bottom of the shaft. "Lucia, lets go down and investigate." She looked down the shaft. She looked at Dante with concern. "What is it down there? Do you feel a sense of something?" "Yes." He said. "I have felt this sense before but it couldn't be." They both jumped down the 2,000 foot shaft.
When they reached the bottom, they noticed that there were several torches lit down the tunnel. They decided to follow the trail. When they reached the end, they saw a tall blonde headed woman with a large blade standing there writing symbols on the walls. She turned around and smiled at Dante. "Well hello son of Sparta. I've been waiting for you." She said. "Trish, is that really you?" Dante said in shock. "I thought you were dead." She stood there and laughed.
"No, not yet." She said while grabbing her blade. "Why do you have my father's sword?" Dante asked. "He gave it to me." She said while turning around toward the walls. "This sword has a special ability to open a gateway to hell. He used it to go there himself." Dante knew what she was doing. She was gonna open a portal for him. Trish then stuck the blade into the wall and said a demonic prayer. A gateway then bursted opened. Dante and Lucia walked through the gateway right after Trish gave them sword SPARTA so they could return.
Unfortunatly, when they walked through someone was waiting for them. Dante and Lucia walked into a state of shock. Lucia started toward the man. "Spa... Sparta?" Dante jumped in front of her shouting. "NO! That is not Sparta. That is not my father." He then felt a sharp shock in his back and he fell to one knee. He looked behind him at the imposter. "Hahaha!" The demon laughed. "Ah, Dante. Your still weak I see. Why did you even bother coming back?" "Sh... Shut up!" Dante grunted. The man started to walk toward them. "Now, for starters, I'm going to deal with that little problem of yours." The man shot a large beem past Dante's head and he heard a scream behind him.
When he turned around, he saw Lucia with a large hole through her body. "Da... Dante..." She gasped before falling. Dante jumped up and ran to her. Although not shedding a tear, he filled himself with great hatred. "She was a bother. I took care of her for you son." "SHUT UP DAMN YOU!" Dante shouted as his body started to flash with energy." The man laughed. "So now that you will fight with your full strength, this should be a good fight." Dante stood up with his body hazing with energy. "I have slain many of your demons. And now it's come to this. Sorry to keep you waiting, YOUR UP NEXT!"
