Chapter 4: Trouble At The Mall

Trish and Lady looked up as the door opened and aimed their guns at the strange woman but blinked at the clothes. The strange woman took a stance and pulled out Ebony and Ivory. Lady blinked.

"OK bitch what are you doing with those?" She snarled. Mira growled and would've launched at the other woman if Vergil hadn't held the strange woman.

"Stand down." He whispered softly, hands on her guns. Mira looked at him and he shared a gaze with her for a few minutes before she lowered her weapons and holstered Ebony and Ivory.

"Vergil, where's Dante and who is she?"

"This is Delmira, and she was Dante."

"Say what?!" Lady yelped. Trish raised an eyebrow.

"She was concealed by your father?"

"That's right," Vergil said. "For her protection." Trish nodded in understanding. The Daughter of Sparda…Mundus would've broken her….or worse….Sparda did the only thing that was logical and sensible, and yet, the hardest decision any father had to make. Another sacrifice. How much would this family have to give to finally have peace?

"Dante," Trish said…."Oh, sorry, Delmira, was it?"

"Please, call me Mira." The woman encouraged. "Dante is…gone."

"Only in name. Dante is you." Mira looked at Vergil who nodded in agreement. Mira sighed and after excusing herself, went upstairs and closed the door to her bedroom. The trio looked at each other and Vergil sat at the desk, placing Yamato next to him. He sighed heavily and thought a moment before picking up the phone and dialed a number.

"Devil May Cry?" Nero greeted as he answered the phone, propping his feet up on the dashboard.

"Nero, how are far away are you son?" Vergil asked. Nero straightened up and listened attentively.

"Not far Father, half an hour tops."

"Very well, come here, we have work to do."

"Is it Mother?" Nero asked. After his father gave an affirmative Nero knew they had to step on it. "Father, I'll be there. I'll take the air route." He hung up the phone and opened the window. "Nico, I got to jet, I'll meet you there."

"It's cool bro, go help yer Mama." Nero nodded and flipped to the roof of the van and did a run jump, triggering at once and made way to Devil May Cry.

Vergil met Nero outside of the office, eyes closed and holding Yamato. Nero landed and Vergil nodded.

"Perfect timing," The elder commended. "Follow me." Nero fell in step with his father, throwing a quick wave to the ladies and made way to the room Mira was in. Vergil lightly knocked.

"Mira, Nero is here. We're both here. Please open the door." Nero knew something was up, His father said please! He shoved his father to the side and picked the lock. Vergil was about to scold the younger devil for shoving him but ceased when the lock clicked and the door opened. Both men scrambled inside….

"HOLY SHIT!" The women heard the men exclaim. The women rushed up stairs but stopped when Vergil came out of the bathroom with a modestly covered Mira in his arms.

"She was found asleep in the shower. Father caught her before she fell." Nero explained. "Luckily I saw nothing, I'd be scarred."

"Boy, you honestly think I'd let you go into the bathroom first?" He asked. "In fact, all of you leave us. I'll tend to her."

"Sure Father, get your peep on." Nero teased, earning him a whap aside the head from Trish. "Ow!" The trio left, closing the door behind them and Vergil sighed. He looked through the clothes, making a mental note that Mira needed new clothes. He chose a shirt, boxers sweatpants. Now the tricky part…He helped her sit up and slowly removed the towel, allowing it to fall. He blushed at her naked body before his eyes. Oh my, its been too long…Despite himself, Vergil leaned down and touched his lips to Mira's. He gasped when she moaned softly and kissed back. When they broke apart he looked into her eyes.

"I heard everything. I'm a bit cold, did you find something?" Vergil nodded and handed her the clothes.

"Looks like I'll have to go shopping for a whole new wardrobe." She sighed as she got up and slowly dressed. Vergil sat there, watching a bit. Mira threw a pillow, getting him in the face.

"Look away you lecherous bastard." She teased. Vergil grinned wickedly but pointedly turned his back, sneaking occasional peeks. He admired her strong supple body, the sensuous curves, the firm creamy thighs, the perfect peach ass and firm voluptuous breasts….

"VERGIL!" Mira screeched, causing the King of the Underworld to fall off the bed with a swear and undignified yelp. The way he fell made Mira laugh. " You are so busted pal." She smiled teasingly and swayed her hips. "Like what you see, Your Majesty?" She smirked. Vergil growled softly and tackled her back onto the bed. Mira squeaked and laughed. Vergil followed after and they embraced.

"I think we best get downstairs…"

"Yes," Vergil said reluctantly as he stood up and offered her a hand. Mira took it and was gently helped to her feet. They both went downstairs and were greeted with three grins.

"Oh grow up," Vergil commanded.

"Yea, we didn't do anything."

"Uh huh…." The trio said. The twins groaned and went to either read or look over case files. Nero went over to his father.

"So Father, did you get your peep on?"

"Boy, don't make me hurt you." Vergil barked, a small blush gracing his face. Nero laughed and ran off before his father made a move. Mira shook her head but smiled. She herself enjoyed teasing Vergil. I'll have him tripping in no time…."Ah ladies, I need help. You see, I need a wardrobe…." Lady and Trish grinned.

"Shopping Trip!" They crowed. Vergil blinked.

"And who's paying for this little endeavor?" He asked as he turned a page in the book he was reading. Mira looked up at him and batted her eyes. Vergil groaned and swore under his breath. He knew he was royally fucked. He pulled out his credit card but pulled back when Mira reached for it. "Uh uh, I get last say so I will be going." The women groaned and Nero high fived his father.

"I may be old, but I'm no fool. Let's go." He ordered as he grabbed his car keys. Mira followed and the women took the rear with Nero, who locked up the office. Father, He thought with a grin. You are so fucked!

Nero groaned as he sat down next to his father at the mall. Lady and Trish were vicious, escorting Mira to almost every store and tossing outfits for her to try on. All three Spardas were ready to book it!

"Luckily Mother didn't like anything they picked."

"True. In fact she's ready to explode." Vergil said calmly as he continued reading. Nero regretted not bringing a book. Mall trips killed him. He envied his father for being so calm and cool. Both looked up when Mira came to them.

"Those two are horrible. I feel like a poodle. " She groaned and automatically sat on Vergil's lap. The older man didn't mind in the least. Oh god yes! His mind purred. That sweet perfect peach ass on my.. "Are we ready to go?"

"I haven't found anything Verge," Mira said. Vergil sat a moment. My love you can walk around me naked I wouldn't mind…He looked to Nero. But alas, we can't have our son traumatized….Screams were heard and Nero went to look. "Guys we have company."

Time to work!
