AN: I FINALLY UPDATED! WOO! XD Anyway...
"HOT DAMN!" My eyes went wide. "All of those demons!" My eyes sweeped over the crowd of the thriving beings of the underworld, slightly afraid. "Ummm... I don't know about this... Can't I just hole up in your shop with a bag of Doritos and a tape of 'All My Children'?"
"Nope! Too late now, kid!" Dante chuckled, rushing out into the fray and taking a few demons out with his sword.
I whimpered, fear now coming over me in a giant wave. But then, suddenly, I gained confidence. I could do this, right? I played hack'n'slashes before. And Dante was doing it with ease! I could do this!
"AWWW YEAH! YOU GUYS ARE GOING DOWN LIKE GOOD OLD DR. SALVADOR!" I shouted, then added hastily, "Ph.D! The first guy with the chainsaw!"-1-
I sniped a couple of demons, hands shaky. (I never really used a gun before-- wait, didn't this gun have safety?) At the fall of them, I did a little victory dance, jumping into the middle of the street. I didn't pay any attention to the demon with the scythe behind me until--
Slice.
He cut my damn shoulder open.
"Ow..." I whimpered, one hand going over my bleeding shoulder. "It huuuuuurts!" I wailed, then turned around and glared daggers at it. "YOU STUPID LITTLE CLOAK-WEARING PANSY! YOU GOT A LUCKY SHOT! BASTARD!" I fired rapid shots in the cheap bastard's mouth like a madman. How dare he take a cut like that without a warning? Don't they have RULES in the underworld? I ought to call the little pansy's mother...
Dante had cleared up the rest of the demons and was watching me shoot the hell out of the demon with wide eyes. "Whoa! Madwoman alert! Madwoman alert! You say you're a first timer, kid!"
I looked to him as the demon fell to the ground, supposedly dead, raising my sneaker and crushing it's skull into the pavement without mercy. My tone was innocent and childish. "HE started it! HE DID! HE DID!"
I winced at my shoulder. "Rrgh... Stupid cheap-shot-takin'-pansy--"
I was promptly interrupted by a larger version of the demon I had killed, and much, much faster, staring at me in the face. I stared back into empty sockets and...
Screamed and ran behind Dante like an injured puppy.
"AAAH! HOLY SHIIIIT! IT's OUT TO GET ME! IT'S THE PANSY'S MOTHER! KILL IT, KILL IT, KILL IT!"
"Foul language for someone so young." Dante fired at 'the pansy's mom', as I called it, repeatedly. He went in the cycle of 'Bullet-bullet-bullet-upcoming sword slash-sidestep-bullet-bullet.' I hid in a dumpster,
after confirming it was safe -2- as I tried to stop the bleeding. I had never really gotten anything worse than I sprained finger, since I was extra-careful about everything I did.
Not this time, eh?
The demon finally died after going through the cycle FIVE TIMES. It was very much to my relief that it was dead-- I gave it a proper inspection to make sure.
Which included calling it a bigger pansy, dancing on the body like I had just won the Superbowl, and making funny faces at it-- and checking if it had a wallet.
It sadly didn't, but it had some orbs! Which is great! ...I could trade those in for another Super Smash Bros. Melee when I got back... Maybe even Halo.
Dante laughed at my actions, then grinned. "You're pretty cute, you know that?" He said, teasingly.
I froze, face turning red. "Uh... Um.. Ehhh... Thank you, devilishly good-looking Golden God! I bow down to you!" My eyes went wide as I kneeled down and bowed, careful of the demon blood and bodies. This only got another laugh out of him, and he turned around, guns still in hand, and headed down the narrow path leading to the next area. "Come on, kid."
I quickly got up and ran after him. "Gotcha, chief!"
And we were off again...
