Chapter 7

Dante awoke with a large smile in his face, the scent of his brother making him feel comfortable, and protected. He hugged the body next to him tightly. "Vergil..."

He awoke as he heard a small laugh. "Yoichi?" Dante jumped up, pulling the sheet over his naked body as he did. "What are you doing in my bed?"

Yoichi smiled. "I am sorry to disturb you Dante...I was not there for long...I have news that I thought you would want to hear..."

Dante did his best to cover himself in the sheet. "What is it that I would want to hear?"

"Your brother left this morning."

Dante looked heartbroken. "What? Why? Where did he go?"

Yoichi stood, walking over to Dante. "I am so sorry Dante...I guess he just couldn't handle what he did to you, and left..."

Dante shook his head. "That doesn't sound like Vergil at all. Even when he does something wrong, he always wants to talk about it with me. He never just lets it go.."

Yoichi snaked his hands around Dante's waist. "I don't know Dante...I had my people look everywhere, and he appears to of left..." He placed a small kiss on Dante's neck, releasing him. "Now...get dressed. I have a wonderful dinner waiting for us, so that we might go over final preparations for your journey before you leave tommorow."

Dante nodded, as he watched Yoichi leave the room. He sat back down on his bed, as he felt a sharp surge of evil and hatred pass through him, causing him to grip his head tightly. His eyes grew into terrified black orbs under a blanket of soft white hair. "Oh my god Vergil...you didn't...please tell me you didn't go back to that place..."

--Meanwhile--

As Vergil reentered the underworld, he could feel the power within him growing, causing him to smile. "How I have missed that feeling..." He could feel his loving emotions begin to fade, only to be replaced by a feeling of dominance, and hatred.

As he walked through the large passageways to his former tower, demons of all sizes stopped, and bowed before him. Vergil nodded back at them, the air surrounding him demanding respect.

A large winged demon circled above, before landing, and getting on one knee before him. "Its good to have you back my lord..."

For a fleeting second, Vergil thought of his brother, before letting his heart freeze over once more, and smiling wickedly. "It's good to be home Sonnillon..." Vergil motioned for the creature to rise.

"We have left everything as it was before your departure lord Vergil..."

Vergil brushed his hair out of his face, with one elegant swipe of his hand. "I no longer wish to go by that name Sonnillon. You will address me as Nelo Angelo..."

The demon smiled. "As you wish...Nelo Angelo..." It extended it's wings out to it's sides. "Come then master, and I will escort you home..."

Vergil used his devil trigger to transform, and spred his wings, flapping them gracefully, sending him through the air, following Sonnillon. "Yes...home..."

--Meanwhile--

Dante gripped his head tightly as he felt hatred swelling in his heart. "Vergil...why would you go back there?" He all of a sudden felt light headed, and fell to the floor, hitting his head on one of the end tables as he did, causing blood to drip down the side of his face, and into his white hair.

Hearing the thud, Yoichi rushed in, and grabbed Dante in his arms. "Dante...are you ok?"

Dante grunted slightly, sitting up and rubbing his head. He pulled his hand away, examining it only to see blood staining it. "I think I fell of of the bed or something.."

Yoichi released him, and ran into the bathroom to grab a towel. Returning, he held it tightly to Dante's head. "Hold this there, it will stop the bleeding."

Dante laughed. "It's already started to heal Yoichi..." He held his arms out. "Half demon..."

Yoichi laughed, sitting on the ground next to him. "Yes, I do suppose that we both have marvelous gifts that the other is unaware of..."

Dante sat silently against the bed, wiping the blood from the side of his face with the towel.

"Dante, what happened just then? Why did you fall?"

Dante closed his eyes. "I sensed something within Vergil's soul. I fear that he may of deflected back to evil."

Yoichi put a hand on Dante's shoulder. "I knew that he was no good for you Dante..."

Dante removed Yoichi's hand from his shoulder. "Please, don't talk about him that way...he has so much love inside of him. I was just starting to realize just how much of it there was..."

Yoichi stood up. "I am sorry Dante. Please accept my appologies..." He bowed before the young twin, and walked to the door. "Dinner is ready, when you are..." He left the room, closing the door behind him.

Dante stood up, throwing the towel against the far wall. He walked groggily over to the large table in the room, and picked up his red leather outfit. Dante smiled. "This getup reminds me of the first mission I went on back on Mallet Island...back when Vergil was..." He stopped himself, shaking his head. "I have to be wrong...Verge wouldn't go back to that way of life..." He set it back down, grabbing a pair of black pants that reminded him of when he and Vergil studied the martial arts together. Pulling them on, he then put on a black tanktop that was next to it in the drawer. He walked to the door, turning the handle, and headed for what he percieved as what could be his last meal.

As he started to round the hallway, to meet Yoichi, he could of sworn that he heard someone sobbing behind the library's large doors. He turned the handle slowly, and peeked in. His eyes narrowed, as he saw Fayth sitting on the floor, her head between her knees.

As she heard the door turn, and open, she looked up, and into the eyes of Dante. "Dante? Is that you?" Her small voice was choked up, and waek.

Dante rolled his eyes. "Oh great...it's you..."

The girl stood to face him, her eyes red and swollen from crying.

Dante started to close the door to leave, but was suprised to feel a hand grab his wrist. He looked down into the eyes of the girl. "Please Dante...don't go..."

Dante scoffed. "What? Do you want a piece of me too?"

The girl stepped back from him. "Nothing that you believe to be true, is Dante..."

Dante stepped into the room, closing the door behind him. "Oh...you mean like sleeping with my damn brother? I mean look at you...you're like what? Sixteen?"

Fayth crossed her arms. "Yes, and that isn't the point." She looked into Dante's eyes. "My god, when Vergil told me that you were hard to talk to he wasn't..."

She was cut off, as the side of a large hand struck the side of her face, causing her to fall to the ground.

Dante stood with his hand extended. "Don't speak of him in front of me ever again...do you understand?"

The girl rubbed her face, and stood up, making Dante look at her in shock. "I will speak of him anytime that I please, because when I needed a friend, he was the only good and decent person that would help me." She looked into Dante's eyes. "All of the others were like you...and my step brother..."

Dante's eyes softened. "What do you mean by that?"

The girl wiped her split lip with the back of her hand. "Violent, and unwilling to listen..." She walked further into the library, and sat down in Yoichi's large chair.

As Dante watched her walk away, he felt a surge of guilt rack his heart. "I'm not like this...whats going on with me?"

Dante followed Fayth into the room, taking a seat in a chair opposite her. "You're not a vampire...are you?"

Fayth looked up at him. "No...I am not. My father had an affair while married to my vampire mother. Yoichi was her son from a previous marriage..."

Dante's face suddenly saddened. "If Vergil told you about me, then why did you sleep with him?"

Fayth breached the gap between them, taking the sides of Dante's face in her hands. "Dante...if you had listened before, you would know that nothing like that ever happened between your brother and I..." She raised his head to face her. "He loves you Dante...he could never be with anyone else..."

A tear fell from one of Dante's blue eyes, as he looked at the girl in front of him. "Then why was he sneaking out to meet you all the time?"

The girl released his face, and sat back in her chair. "I believe that fate brought your brother and I together one night..."

Flashback

A small girl stood alone, in the middle of the night, upon a high bridge, looking at the black water below. Thoughts of suicide and anger clouded her mind, causing her to put one foot up on the railing in front of her.

She was startled, as she saw a blue coat, thrown onto the sidewalk next to her. She looked up to see a handsome white haired man, looking down at her, his eyes a soft blue color.

He smiled at her. "Now see what you've made me go and do? I already took a shower tonight, and you are going to force me to take another..." He began to unfasten his sword from his black leather pants.

The girl looked away. "Go away...I don't need any help..."

Vergil laughed, stepping to look over the edge of the cold metal railing. "Well, from the looks of it, I'd say that you do..."

She looked him up and down, making a disgusted face. "What are you an axe murderer or something?"

Vergil stopped to examine himself. He was covered in blood, from the earlier demon encounter that he had. "I'm a butcher..."

The girl rolled her eyes. "Whatever...if you want to kill me, or rape me, or whatever you want, just do it...my life is over anyways..."

Vergil propped his arms on the railing next to her. "And why at such a young age, do you believe that to be true?"

"Why do you care?"

Vergil laughed. "Because I was young and confused once too...maybe I can help you..."

The girl sighed. "No one can help me...I'm all alone, with no where to go..."

Vergil turned to face her. "What about your family?"

The girl's eyes teared up, threating to spill over at any moment. "They are dead...except for my step brother, and he's nuts..." She looked up at Vergil. "I think he's the one who had my parent's killed to begin with..."

Vergil shook his head. "I guess I don't have the only dysfunctional family in the world after all..."

"So that's why my life is over now..." Before Vergil could grab her, she hopped herself over to the other side of the railing, that was damp from the night's frost.

She looked into his eyes. "After I let go of this, there's nothing that you will be able to do to save me, so you might as well go home..."

Vergil acted like didn't care anymore, picking up his coat and sword. Inwardly he cared much more than he dared to let her know. "Fine...have a wonderful trip down...if the fall does not kill you, the freezing water should do the trick..."

The girls eyes popped out of her head. "Wait!" She took one of her hands off of the railing reaching for him. "You're just going to leave me here?"

Vergil turned to leave. "I have enough horrible images clouding my mind to keep me awake at night..." He turned to face her. "I don't need the death of an innocent young girl staining it as well..."

All of a sudden, the girl felt something in her heart, making her want to live. "Fayth..."

Vergil turned once more. "What?"

She smiled. "My name is Fayth."

Vergil smiled, walking back towards her. He stopped, setting his things down once more beside him, and putting his arms on the railing. "My name is Vergil..."

The two stood silently for a few moments, the wind picking up, and blowing through thier hair.

"What say, I pull you back over here, and we go grab some hot chocolate or something?" He extended his hand for her to take.

She though for a moment, before removing her hand from the railing and reaching for it. Suddenly her foot slipped, and she fell lower, grabbing the last bar of the wet railing that she possibly could. "Vergil! Help me!"

Vergil dropped to the ground, extending his hand downward, as far as it would go. "Fayth!" He swore he felt his finger tips touch her hand, when all of a sudden, it was gone. He heard a terrified scream as he stood up, and looked down to see the girl falling.

Fayth looked up as she fell in what she percieved as slow motion. She saw Vergil reach down for her, screaming at her, but it was too late. She was about to close her eyes, not wanting to see the hard water coming, when a bright blue light burst forth from the bridge. She blinked, not knowing what was going on. She turned in mid air, to see the water closing in fast. "Goodbye world..." She closed her eyes.

Vergil did a dive off of the bridge, pulling his wings to his sides like a bullet. He realized that he didnt have enough time to swoop up with her, finally settling for getting below her to break her fall. "God,This is gonna hurt like hell..." He grabbed her at the last moment, placing her on his chest, as his back hit the water like a concrete wall.

The two entered the icy water with a large splash. Fayth opened her eyes under the water, wondering how it was that she was not dead. She squinted forwards, as she could just make out the image of a man sinking below her. She reached out for his hand, and took it in her own, kicking frantically in an effort to pull him up. Her eyes grew large when she realized that the man she was trying to help was Vergil, who had now taken his human form once more. "I'm not letting you die because of me..."

She kicked harder and faster than she ever had in her life, as she pulled his body closer to the surface of the water. As she broke it, she took a huge breath, trying to refill her lungs with precious air, and pulling Vergil up with her. She took his head in her small arm, and began pulling him towards the shore as she went. As she finally reached it, she grabbed his sleeveless armoured top, and pulled him up onto the sandy bank with her. She winced, as she saw that the back of his large arms were purple and black from the imapct of the water. "You shouldn't of done that you big dummy..." Tears started to flood her vision.

She laid her small head on top of his chest, trying to make out a heartbeat. She found that she couldnt hear anything, making her panic. Just then, Vergil turned to his side, and began to spit up water from his chest. She laid a hand on his back. "Are you ok? I thought you were a gonner..."

He rolled onto his back. "The question is...are you ok?" He smiled at her, making her smile back. Fayth looked her self over. "I'm fine I think..."

Vergil sat up. "Good." He used his hand to slick his hair back out of his face, extending her an arm to her as he stood. "Shall we then...I'd like to get my things from the top of the bridge first if that is alright with you..."

She put her small arm into his. "That sounds perfect..." She eyed him suspeciously. "What are you?..."

As Vergil began to walk, his leg buckled slightly underneath him, causing him to stumble. Fayth put his arm around her neck as he grunted in pain.

"I must of landed on that wrong..." He smiled at her.

She looked at him in concern. "We should get you to a hospital, and get it looked at..."

Vergil stood himself back up. "It's nothing...it will be fine soon..."

Fayth looked up at him wondering what the hell was going on. "Fine...if you say so..."

"Let's go then..." He started walking along next to her, trying his best not to limp in front of her, knowing that his leg was indeed broken in several places that he could feel.

As they reached the top of the bridge, he stood before his things, looking down at the girl next to him. "Would you mind? I think I pulled a muscle in my knee or something..."

She nodded, and bent down, gathering them in her arms. She helped him put his coat on, and reattach his sword to his side. "This is really beautiful..." She ran her hand across Yamato.

Vergil smiled weakly at her. "It was a gift from my father, before I lost him."

"You don't have parents either?"

Vergil shook his head. "No...mine were murdered as well..."

Fayth looked up at him. "I didn't know...I'm sorry..."

He smiled warmly at her. "It's fine. I learned to deal with it along time ago, and you will as well..." All of a sudden Vergil felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end.

"What is it?" Fayth turned around, to see twenty or so hellprides closing in on them. "Vergil! What the hell are those things?"

Vergil turned around smirking. "Those..." He pointed to them. "Are what I cut up in my butcher shop." He started to draw his sword, suddenly realizing that he was no match for them in his state. He pulled Fayth to the edge of the bridge's railing once more, looking over the edge. He stared down into her soul. "Do you trust me?"

Fayth looked in to his beautiful blue eyes. "Yes, I think so..."

With that Vergil transformed into his demon half, and grabbed her in his large arms. He stepped up onto the railing, as she looked down over. "What the hell do you think that you're..."

She had not time to finish, as she felt herself falling once again through the air, but unlike last time, the imapct never came. As she opened her eyes, she looked down, to see the lights of the city twinkling below her. She inhaled deeply, as the breeze blew through her long hair. Looking around her, she saw two enormous wings stretched out to either side of her, gliding in the wind. "Vergil? What are you?"

He looked down at her, smiling. "A demon...what does it look like?"

She managed a small laugh. "I can see that..."

He smirked at her. "Do you want to fly higher?"

She smiled back, thinking for a moment. "Absolutely!"

Vergil started to dive downwards, catching a large draft, sending him upwards cutting through thick clouds as he went.

She forced herself to keep her eyes open, as she extended her arms to her sides. "This is amazing Vergil! I've never felt so alive before!"

Vergil smiled, as he continued to climb higher, and higher through the clouds, until he broke free of them, leaving a puff in his wake. He spread his wings, stopping his ascent, and hovering in the air using his large wings.

Fayth breathed in deeply at the sight of the moon in front of them. It was bigger and brighter than she ever could remember seeing it. "I've never seen anything like this...it's amazing..."

He held her tightly, whispering into her ear. "If you promise to stop trying to kill yourself, you have my word that anytime you want to fly, I will take you to the moon and back..."

She turned in his arms, hugging his neck tightly. "Thankyou Vergil..."

He hugged her back, his large claws glistening in the moonlight, as he looked into her eyes. "Do you wanna do something really cool?"

She nodded, as she felt herself flung onto his back. "Hang on tight...do not let go for anything..." Fayth wrapped her arms around his neck once more, as she felt him retract his wings to his sides.

All of a sudden they were falling downwards like a comet, before falling through the clouds once more. She felt him draw out his wings stopping thier fall, and turn to face downwards. Two jetted through the air quickly, Vergil twisting his body around, causing them to spin in large circles through the night sky. "This is like my own roller coaster!" Fayth yelled as they started up again.

Vergil smiled, yelling back to her. "Only your roller coaster has no tracks, or set path...just like the rest of your life..."

The two soared through the sky together for hours before she told him where to take her, and he landed on top of Yoichi's castle.

As he landed, he set the girl down, and transformed back to his human self, faliing onto the ground from exhaustion.

She fell down next to him, laughing.

"Whats so funny?" Vergil turned to look at her, still trying to catch his breath.

"I've never had that much fun in my enitire life!" She turned to face him as well.

Vergil sat himself up painfully, his leg still broken.

Fayth sat up as well. "I will never forget this night, or what you did for me, as long as I live..."

Vergil stood, getting ready to leave. "I hope you don't forget the promise I made you either...anytime you feel sad, find me, and we will fly for as long as you like..."

She nodded. "I won't foget..."

Vergil became a demon once again, and started towards the edge of the mansion, before turning to her. "Meet me on the bridge tommorw night at the same time, and I will help you uncover the truth about your parents deaths..."

She smiled. "Thankyou..." She watched as he spread his wings, and flew off into the night. "Goodbye, my hero..."

--End Flashback--

Dante stared forward in awe. "My brother did that for you?"

Fayth nodded. "Yes. I would not be here today if it wasn't for his kindness...you should learn from it..."

Dante laughed. "Well this is irony. No one has ever told me before to learn from Vergil's kindness before...its usually the exact opposite..."

"Well believe it..." She crossed her arms.

"Why didn't Verge just tell me about you, instead of just sneaking out all the time?"

Fayth sighed. "Because he came to believe that this necklace held much more power than he knew of, and he didn't want to put you in unnecessary danger..."

Dantehung his head. "I should of listened to him...I never gave him a chance..."

Fayth drew his head up to meet her eyes. "Then listen to me now...because what I have to tell you could very well save your life..."

Ok..that was long...Vergil says that he wants you to review this, or he will slice your heads off...Remember...Dante is doing my reviews next time, so if you want to ask him something personal he has promised to asnwer you:)
