Chapter 92: Seperated
As Adrian and the car landed roughly on the other side of the portal, he stomped on the brake, bringing the vehicle to a halt. His breathing was heavy, not believing Sona being able to create an actual water serpent,
"Okay! I didn't think Sona was able to do that!" He said, "You alright up there Katrina?!" He waited for a response, "Katrina?" He opened the car door, standing up, and seeing nothing on the roof, except for a red lace thong. He snatched the undergarment, seeing it was still warm, and began to look around, seeing himself in an open field, with a dense jungle-like forest to what he assumed was the east, a mountain to the north, a glistening sea to the west, and almost nothing to the south. "Katrina?!" He slammed the car door shut, walking a few steps, "Katrina!!" He froze, hearing a noise coming from the back of the car, followed by the sound of the car door opening, and he slowly turned around, dreading what he was about to see...and saw a certain buffoon in a green coat,
"Yo Adrian! Since you became a stray, and I fucking knew you were going to try and tackle Zeus on your own, I decided to hide in the back of Weskers car so I could follow you and give you some extra muscle." Adrian, despite himself, began to scream, earning a confused glare from the stowaway, not because he was surprised there was one, but because he was now trapped in an unknown dimension...with Damon!
Meanwhile...
Katrina was screaming her head off as she found herself falling from several thousand feet, with Adrian and the car missing. She spread her wings, attempting to angle herself so she won't land straight onto the ground, and rather land at an angle to cushion her fall. She does so just barely in time, managing to angle herself like she wanted, but crashes into several snow covered trees, causing her to lose her balance and crash into the ground, rolling on her sides out of control, until she started to slide, slamming the back of her head against a boulder, causing her to see dark spots, and slump to the ground...
Katrinas' eyes fluttered open, her head throbbing, and gingerly brushed her fingers to the back of her head, feeling a bloodied goose egg forming on the back of her head. She slowly but surely managed to get herself on all fours, inspecting her wings, and finding her right wing was bent at an odd angle,
"No wings..." a breeze then flew past her, making her shiver more than it should, and she instinctively reached under her skirt with her non-bloodied hand, her eyes going wide, "...no panties..." she stood herself up, wiping the blood on her hand onto her skirt, readjusting her bag on her shoulder as she inspected the snowy forest around her, seeing a beaten path close to her, "...no problem."
Back to Adrian and Damon...
The two devils had just barely finished covering the car with foilage from the jungle forest, to hide it from onlookers, with Adrian stewing in his quiet anger, while Damon kept looking around himself curiously.
"So let me get this straight, we're in a new dimension, trying to find Zeus after he gave an invite to Katrina, and you just went along with it?" Asked Damon. Adrian took a deep breath,
"That's my understanding from Katrinas' text she sent me before I picked up Weskers car," said the Devil Virus, still enraged that he was trapped with Damon of all people.
"Well I guess if you were desperate take out Zeus then I guess that was the only thing in the cards," said Damon, sliding his hands in his pockets. Adrian sighed, and turned to Damon,
"Why were you in the back of Weskers' car?" Damon shrugged his shoulders,
"Well, since you spoke to Wesker at the hospital and he gave you the keys, I just figured his car would be where you would go next." Adrian looked at Damon in shock,
"You were at the hospital?!"
"Yeah. Rias wanted you home, so not only did Katrina go out, but Rias also sent the rest of us out, and she did so quick." Adrian raised an eyebrow, "Let's just say Sirzechs wasn't too happy about you dumping his sister and abandoning her house," Damon finished with a grimace, "I was never afraid of anything before, but Sirzechs was mad" Adrian glared at Damon,
"Are you just trying to scare me into going back to Rias so I don't have to kill Zeus?" Damon was stupified,
"Yes Adrian," he said sarcastically, "I'm really trying to scare you into going back to Rias. So come on! Let's on back through the portal! Oh wait! No, we can't, the thing sealed up as soon as we went through." Damon folded his arms in front of himself, "You and I are stuck together to the end, however long that will be. Plus, do you even have a clue how to kill him?" Adrian reached into his coat, revealing that he still has the Whitelight syringes,
"I'm going to stick him with this, then use the Divine Dividing I stole from Vali on him, leaving him as nothing more than a human," said Adrian, hiding the confidence in his plan with watered down rage.
"That's...actually not a bad plan..." said Damon, rubbing the back of his head, unable to think of a better one, "but hey, mind if I hold onto one of the Whitelights?" Adrian stopped, glaring at Damon,
"Why?"
"So then if Zeus catches you, he won't destroy all of the Whitelight vaccines," explained Damon. Adrian nodded, knowing he had a point, and handed him one of the syringes. "Thank you. Now let's go ahead and move to that ocean. I think I see some campfire smoke," Adrian looked toward the sea, and sure enough, there were two faint pillars of smoke, "and where there's campfires..."
"...There's people," Adrian said, finishing Damons' sentence. Suddenly, both boys heard a girls scream, and they both ran as fast as they could to the sea, where the sound originated from. In a matter of seconds, both of the boys ran after the sound, the first one arriving being Adrian, with Damon a few steps behind, catching his breath,
"You sir...are deceptively fast!" Damon huffed. Adrian slammed a flat palm against Damons' mouth, keeping it firm as he looked out at the beach; he saw about five fair skinned men, with either blonde or brown hair, with blue or green eyes, dressed in white and gold armored robes, four of which were covered in blood, their chests opened, and the fifth one was propped against a miniscule sand bluff, just enough for him to lean up and see his comrades were all killed. What stood out to the boys most was that they all had pointed ears, elvish almost. Adrian and Damon approached the man, ready for any sort of ambush as the Devil Virus formed his blade and gear, while the Devil Hunter drew out Black Dahlia. The man had sand blonde hair, blue eyes, one of which was tinged with red as he was bleeding from the side of his head. He tried to pull a silver short sword from out of its sheath as he saw the two boys approach.
"Who art thou? State thy intent!" He spoke with an accent, blood dripping from his lips as he coughed, clearly wounded.
"Calm down," said Adrian, "Who did this to you?" The elven man dropped his sword, too weak to hold the weapon up any longer.
"We were ambushed..." he coughed, "...orcs...they took the princess...!" He then tried to stand, only to fall back into his sitting up position, "...please...!" He begged the two devils, "...save the princess! Succeed where I failed..." He then leaned back, his breathing halting as more blood dripped from his mouth. Adrian felt for a pulse, feeling none.
"He's gone..."
"But...how did he die? I don't see any marks like those other poor suckers," said Damon, pointing to the other elven soldiers. Adrian carefully inspected the soldier in front of him, and saw his chest piece was indented. He gently pressed his hand on the chest piece, and it flexed in like jello,
"His entire torso was crushed!" Adrian said in a hushed tone, almost to himself, "Whoever killed these guys must have been strong..."
"Strong...but not powerful," said Damon, "meaning it can't be Zeus." Adrian stood up, turning towards Damon,
"Then should we even bother?" Asked Adrian. Damon gave Adrian a shocked look which turned to a look of fury,
"What the f-THERE IS A PRINCESS INVOLVED MOTHERFUCKER!!" He said in a loud whisper. Both of the boys then heard the girls scream once again, leading them further down the northern half of the beach...
Meanwhile with Katrina...
The War Goddess was still treading through the snow covered path, grumbling to herself,
"Hey Katrina!" She said to herself, "Want to go on an adventure? Sure! Will it involve going after my overpowered psycho not boyfriend? Absoultely! How about we go hiking in the snow in a skirt with no panties while we're at it?! That doesn't sound insane at all!!" Katrina stopped in her tracks, hearing a laugh erupt behind her, whirling around as she saw a tan skinned man, dressed in a red parka, green cargo pants, dark combat boots, covered in grime and dirt, and most noticably had a mohawk, and dark circles under his eyes,
"It's funny you should say 'insane,'" said the man, "because most people usually don't know the definition...of insanity..."
