Demonic Guidance Chapter 2

Thank you for the positivity to the first chapter. I hope that you enjoy this one as the story goes on. Keep in mind that this chapter is now set at the start of Volume 2. Dante and Vergil have to get used to a very different type of life in Remnant. This is a fan made crossover, I neither own the rights to Devil May Cry or RWBY. Thank you for reading.

It had been a few days since their arrival in Beacon, Vergil was sitting at the desk in his private room. The cambion was staring at the pair of mystical orbs in his hand. The black and white spheres seemed to glow with a faint sense of power, though they did nothing when he tried to influence them with his own demonic energy. The elder twin had taken to examining these strange artifacts in his spare time over the past few days. In between introducing himself to the rest of Beacon's staff and planning lessons he would end up teaching his future students.

"Damn you Dante… Ozpin must have had a reason for the assignments he gave us." He grumbled to himself. The pair of twins were both to be registered as official huntsman and teachers of Beacon. However, Ozpin had insisted that he wished for Dante to take care of the away missions for a time, whereas Vergil would be the first of the pair to manage the classroom. At least for now. 'The wizard is planning something. Could this be a sign he is wary of me?' Vergil wondered internally. He was technically a king of hell even after returning to his original form. Could Ozpin tell that Vergil was responsible for more bloodshed then Dante? Most likely not. 'This must be a test of my personality, to see how I will act under his eye and in front of these children. Very well then. I'll make sure to impress you Ozpin.' He thought further, finally putting the pair of orbs back in his pocket. A bonus of their new income was the ability to get their clothes replaced. The private bathrooms were an added luxury that both twins had come to appreciate. They looked at their best now, far better than after months of fighting in hell.

The dark slayer stood up and walked from his desk to leave the room, leaving Yamato dematerialized within him for now. He refused to go without his weapon however he knew he could not keep it visible without drawing concerned eyes to him. In his own human world, he would not have cared about the attention, but now he had to present himself as a respectable authority figure. Vergil let his mind wander as he walked to the cafeteria ignoring the surprised looks from students who did not recognize him quite yet. Murmurs of both suspicion and awe could be heard as he walked past groups of students. And yet he did not care either way about what they had to say of him. Their thoughts were merely a distraction to the son of Sparda as he walked on.

"Foolishness." He muttered under his breath when he heard people talking about his looks. Some describing him as elegant and dashing, others thought he was scary and intimidating. He knew they were children, but they still had much to learn what really mattered in this life.

"I know it's been a bit but man I really can't get enough of this taste." Dante sighed in relief as he moved onto his third full pizza. He had to give this wacky new world credit; its pizza was just as good as he needed it to be. The crowd of students in the cafeteria were busy talking away in excitement over the start of the new school semester. The idea of having some type of simple school life was something Dante hadn't considered. The children around him might have been there to hunt monsters, but they still were kids who for most of them were still young and innocent. "I hope this world doesn't chew them up too badly." The red coated hunter commented to himself as he watched a group of eight across the table from him. They seemed particularly bombastic even for a school for hunters.

"Don't start picking favorites, we won't be here long." Vergil commented from behind his brother. Dante didn't even jump at the sound of his voice; he knew by now to expect his twin to be so quiet even in a roaring crowd. "Oh, come on you don't know how long we'll be here. Might as well help the young ones out while we're here. Might help you know how to talk to your son." The trickster shot back at him, causing the elder twin to frown more.

"You're trying to ignore the inevitable. We do not belong here Dante. When the time comes, I should not have to drag you back to the human world you constantly sacrificed for." The elder brother chided him. Dante simply shrugged in turn. "Hey, I need to manage my shop as soon as possible, just saying these kids could use some help before they get slashed to ribbons. I'm not gonna hold their hands. Just want to give them some pointers, hell if we had advice, we probably wouldn't have messed up so much."

Vergil nodded in understanding, while he held different views on dealing with this new realm, he wouldn't dismiss his brother's feelings. "Regardless you should take that pizza for the road." He spoke as he motioned towards the group Dante had been watching. The white-haired girl had taken a pie to the face, and now the eight kids were now splitting up and gathering food together. "I would rather not wear what they were eating." Vergil muttered as he moved to leave the cafeteria.

Dante smirked in amusement, closing the lid of the pizza box and taking it in his hands. "Well if they take a food fight so seriously, I can't wait to see them in a hunt."

Saying their food fight was intense was an understatement. Ruby was still feeling the adrenaline from rushing towards team JNPR. Pleased with her work when she saw them covered in pasted food at the end, though Ms. Goodwitch's anger however didn't feel good at all. Thankfully Professor Ozpin kept her from yelling at them. Overall it was a good day so far for the two teams. Once they had cleaned up from the messy ordeal Ozpin made an announcement for all students to go to the auditorium.

"Ruby you need to watch where you're going." Weiss groaned as their leader bounced through the halls. "But Weiss the announcement said they were introducing new Beacon teachers! What if they're famous awesome huntsmen with cool new weapons!" The scythe wielder spoke excitedly.

"Hey just as long as they're not as boring as Professor Port when he's telling tall tales that's all I wanna know." Yang spoke up, nudging Blake with her arm. "Come on what's your take on this, you've been awfully quiet. More so then usual I mean."

"I'm okay, I just have been feeling off as of late. It's hard to put into words, it is just like something in the air feels… different. It's not bad or anything… just not normal. Don't you guys feel it?" Blake asked, still partially lost in thought. Yang shook her head in response. "No, it feels the same to me, maybe we should ask around?"

"After the meeting in the auditorium. At this rate we're going to be the last team there." Weiss complained as she kept walking. Looking back to urge the rest of the team to pick up the pace.

It didn't take long for team RWBY to get into the auditorium with the rest of the student body. The team of young girls moved to get the best possible view of the stage. "What do you think they'll be like? Maybe tough and hardened from years of experience? Ooh or maybe they'll show off their weapons for the whole crowd! Aw I wanna ask them questions if they do." Ruby spoke with joy at the possibilities.

Before the rest of her team could come back with a response, Professor Ozpin walked onto the stage with two men following behind him. The girls took a moment to try and analyze the pair of men on each side of the headmaster.

Yang let out a whistle at the two of them. "Well they're older guys but they're not bad looking that's for sure." She joked. Weiss however stared at them with wide curiosity. Their snow-white hair and blue eyes made her curious. 'They can't actually be related to me. But they look like they could pass as Schnees.' The heiress thought to herself.

"The one in red kind of reminds me of uncle Qrow and Dad!" Ruby chirped in a mix of happy excitement. "The other one is a bit scary, but he also has that intimidating air to him. Like the solo hero from a comic."

Blake however held a mixed feeling, while they looked like experienced and professional huntsman, she could tell they were strange. She felt the same strange feeling when she saw them, it was like her faunus instincts were warning her that they were strong. Something she never felt this badly before.

"I've seen the one with the pushed back hair before." Blake spoke up, causing the rest of her team to look to her. "He was at the library when I was checking books out. I don't know why but he was causing the feeling I was talking about before… There's something strange about him but I don't know what."

The blonde huntress however smirked. "Didn't think the older men were your kind of thing Blakey." She teased with a wink, causing Blake to sigh in frustration. "Quiet Yang! Professor Ozpin is about to speak." Weiss scolded, wanting to hear every word the headmaster had to say.

A cough escaped the headmaster as he cleared his throat, before speaking directly into the microphone. "I do not wish to take too much time from your classes. I however thought it would clear up any confusion to have a presentation like this. In between the semesters and after careful consideration. I have concluded to hire these two gentlemen to be a part of Beacon's staff. They will both be teaching classes involving combat against both Grimm and rogue opponents. As well as what some might consider to be unconventional tactics. In addition to teaching they will be assisting in security concerns in both the school grounds and the Kingdom of Vale itself." Ozpin paused before motioning to the pair of twins. "I will allow them to introduce themselves as they wished to give a word of greeting."

As soon as Ozpin backed away from the microphone Dante was quick to approach it. "Greetings everyone, I am Dante. While I've seen bits and pieces of your fights, whether they be with real weapons or food as we saw in the cafeteria today." He smirked a bit when he heard people in the crowd laugh at that. "However, my brother and I want to give you the tools to survive against whatever comes your way. So, get to learning so you can actually go toe to toe with everything evil and scary out there."

Dante motioned for Vergil to approach, letting him have the room to speak into the microphone. "I am Vergil, the elder son of Sparda." He addressed himself, giving a ice cold glare towards the crowd in front of him. "I understand that some of you have apprehension towards working hard towards bettering yourself at this school. Let me make this clear… If you are not willing to seize the strength needed for you to succeed here. Then you will be putting everyone on your team at risk including yourself. We will give you the tools necessary for your survival as a huntsman. It is up to you to put it into practice. Or you will suffer the results." With that cold implication Vergil stepped back from the mic and glanced towards his twin.

The younger of the two stepped closer to the mic and whispered. "If you couldn't tell I'm the nice teacher here. So, try not to get on his bad side, okay?" He warned with a smile on his face, before finally letting the headmaster have his microphone back.

"As you can see while they may be… unconventional their skill matches that tenfold I assure you. Now you are dismissed. Please report back to your usual class schedule." Ozpin spoke once more. Finally leaving the stage with the two twins following behind him.

There was quite a large discussion happening as the crowd of students disbursed back to their reported schedules. As for team RWBY they were left stunned by the contrast of the two brothers.

"Well… At least one of them is cheery!" Yang responded with a shrug. Weiss meanwhile was carefully considering the colder twin's words of warning. "He's blunt in how he says it, but his meaning is correct. The life of a huntsman is dangerous… I think he's trying to warn us about that in a way."

Blake nodded in understanding. "I think they're well meaning, albeit strange in how they tried to convey it."

Ruby however was ecstatic. "Wow, they were so cool. One is suave and confident in his careless demeanor. And the other one is brutal and tough. I wonder if they'll let me get their autographs." Though she stopped when she heard her scroll beep, checking it quickly. "Guys guys guys our schedules just updated." She spoke in joy while staring at her multimedia device. "We have them today! Oh, I can't wait!"

"At least you're happy little sister." Yang spoke with a shake of her head, fully amused by how cute her sibling was.

Ozpin sipped his coffee as he walked with the pair of cambions. "Well I think that went better then I expected. Though it was blunt in nature I do agree with what you said Vergil. It is part of why I think your guidance will be necessary for these students' growth." He spoke walking with them to their shared classroom.

"Your approval is appreciated headmaster." Vergil replied. "If these students are going to pose any kind of threat to their enemy then they will need to put in the effort to obtain the power they wish for." Dante shook his head when he heard his brother speak. "At least you're not going after power just for yourself. Now let's get these starting classes done with, shall we?"

"Before you start allow me to say one word of advice. I am leaving it up to your discretion whether or not you wish to reveal your true nature. While I would wish you refrain from talking about the alternate reality you hail from. I cannot stop you from talking about that or your demonic heritage. I leave that in your hands sons of Sparda." Ozpin spoke, a snort escaping the younger twin.

"Don't worry knowing our luck they'll know soon and hate our guts out of fear. It tends to be a common trait in my life." He shot back, patting Vergil on the back. "Thanks for the vote of confidence though Ozzy."

Vergil motioned for Dante to enter their classroom. "If you need us for any of your… assignments we will be preparing our lessons now." He spoke to their new boss. A clear hint of discomfort was hidden in his voice at the idea of having someone in charge of him.

"Good luck with the students, and keep an eye out for team RWBY would you? They're who I would bet on." Ozpin spoke with a smile, finally turning to leave them be.

When the twins were finally alone Dante turned to laugh. "I think he likes you more then he lets on. Dunno why, maybe you're his type?" Vergil however glared at him for his taunts. "If anything, he doesn't trust me. I don't know how but he knows more then he is letting on."

The jovial twin shrugged in response. "Well let's get him to lower his guard and let us in on the big bad secret then." He spoke nonchalantly. The elder brother sighed as he moved to prepare the room. "Dante prep the room for combat. I wish to test the students' abilities myself."

"Hey… Look I know we're going to teach, just go easy on them okay? I don't wanna write notes telling all these parents why their kids need new right arms." He joked, earning another dagger glare from his brother.

"Okay jeez, still too soon?"

Team RWBY and JNPR thankfully made it on time to their next assigned class and both teams were able to sit next to each other. Though they were waiting for class to officially begin, the only teacher in the room was the younger twin Dante. Said teacher was sitting at the desk in the room with his feet resting on it. He was simply taking his time reading on his scroll, browsing online magazines and news instead of paying attention to the students.

"Uh what is he doing?" Jaune asked his friends out of confusion. "I didn't expect him to seem to… not care." Pyrrha cocked her head in confusion at their teacher and tried her best to think of a reason. "I think he's waiting for everyone here. He may be unconventional in his teaching. That is if the rest of Beacon's teachers are the standard."

Yang snickered in response. "Hey if he wants to read all class that's more than good for us, right?" Weiss however found no amusement in that. "Unlike you I actually want them to do their best to see what we're capable of."

"Oh, is that right ice queen?" Dante shouted from the desk to catch their attention. "Well I'm glad to fill you in. My wonderful brother has decided to make me referee for sparring matches this class. So, I'm actually getting paid to sit and look handsome." He spoke standing up and laying his scroll on the table. "Alright looks like you're all in your seats and everyone seems here. So, I'll get introductions out of the way, I'm Dante Sparda your new teacher. Though I insist on Dante or Mr. Dante."

This was when one last person entered through the doorway. Vergil walked inside with Yamato in his hand. "So, are you ready to test your limits?" He asked coldly, sending a shiver down every students' spines. Even the most fearless and experienced students felt the intimidation that the elder twin was giving off.

"Bet you're glad I'm here to hold him off." Dante chuckled. "Don't worry he doesn't bite."

This caused a panic to grow inside of Jaune. "Uh Mr. Dante sir? What do you mean by hold him off?"

Instead however Vergil answered the question. "I have informed and come to an agreement with Ozpin. To show you all the harshness of the real world without risking your lives in an actual mission, you will all be sparring as a team… with myself as your opponent."

This plan of education shocked all of the class as the students started talking amongst themselves.

Blake however took this moment to speak up to their teachers. "Don't you think that is a little unfair? You both are fully experienced huntsman."

"That is why I will not be requiring you to defeat me to succeed in this task. Other wise you would all be destined to fail." Vergil spoke bluntly. "All you have to do to be counted as passing this assignment is to damage me in a significant way. I will not require you to deplete my aura or ring me out either. Furthermore, it will be a full team versus a single opponent, this exercise is to teach you to rely on each other while also feeling the threat of death."

A sigh of relief escaped multiple of the students when he explained the rules. Though many where still on edge, especially when he spoke of the 'threat of death'.

"We will be choosing the teams as we see fit. Though this is our assigned classroom we have permission to use the sparring arena when it is available. And lucky for you it is." Dante added with a smile. "Relax and loosen up. I'm not gonna let a single student of mine get taken out. It'd be bad form to let a bunch of kids not get to accomplish their dreams."

The younger twin's words did some damage control after the intensity of Vergil's tone. Even Jaune was managing to smile optimistically despite his nerves.

"Ruby Rose." Vergil spoke, causing the younger girl to jump. "Y-yes Mr. Vergil sir." She stammered in surprise but stood up in confidence. She may have been nervous, but she was ready to prove herself.

A slight smirk spread on the Dark Slayer's face. "Ready your team. You will be up first; I hope you do not disappoint me."

That is where this chapter is going to end, the next chapter will be focusing on team RWBY attempting to prove themselves underneath Vergil's judgmental gaze. As well as focusing on the developing plot from RWBY's second volume. My apologies for this chapter being a bit shorter then the initial one, but the next chapter should be quite a bit beefier. I hope you enjoyed and will stick around as things are only going to get more fun as the Sparda twins bring their own kind of style to the world of Remnant. Take care~
