chapter 2

Rayne-

"So. This is where those freaks are hiding." Rayne silently approached the doors of the abandoned churched with the strange markings on the two rotting front doors. She decided to enter through the care. ' I love big entreances.' She easily climbed to the roof of the church. The wetness of the falling off shingles not even fazing her. Rayne crouched to look through a hole in the roof. She couldm't really see anything but she could hear some noisy party crasher inside tearing the place apart.

She could smell the humans yes. But, apparently something went wrong. Something else was in the air. Something powerful. From priar experience she knew what the small was. 'A demon. A big one. This is gonna be fun.'

"Hey Severin." She whispered into the mike. "Looks like this was a good choice. Nice job.

"What are you talking about? And I always do a good job."

"There's something big down there. Something powerful."

"Be careful Rayne. It's problably a demon that the cult tried to summon."

"I don't know but it's making a big mess from what I can hear. i'm also smelling fresh blood." She found a weak spot directly above the racket then jumped as high as she could go. When she landed she crashed trough with her beloved arm blades spread, spinning as she fell closer to the powerhouse killing everything below.

Dante-

Even from where he was standing he could see the light in the abandoned church and hear the chanting of voices. Human of course. 'Man. This is just like that one time...' He went on reminising for a good five minutes. 'Apparantly this is a long ass ritual.' Dante wasn't amused. So he decided to go with his most used entrance. Guns blazing. He didn' even bother to knock he just charged at the unsuspecting cult members inside.

They were walking in a circle around the naked corpse of a man that was busted open where the insides could be viewed. They all stood in shock as the man in the red coat charged through the door, guns ready and a huge grin on his face. a couple of the members ran towards Dante with regular spears. they were killed as soon they they came from the shadows. The other who were chanting a few moments ago decided to rush Dante all at once.

"Oh, so you wanna play that way huh? Ok I can do that." Immediatly he holsteredhis guns and pulled out Rebellion, just a small (not) trincket from his father. The huge sword sliced trough the cult members like the were putty. Blood splattered everywhere. 'Do these guys ever end or has the whole world joined this cult?' When Dante reached the middle of the room something unexpected happened.

Some red head chick came busting in through the roof with a blade on each arm. The blades were extended as if they were an extension of her arms.

"Well look what we have here." Dante stated with arrogance as he easily dodged her downward pointed blades.

Rayne-

"Well look what we have here." The silver haired stranger said as he dodged Rayne's blades. From his powerful aura she never had it cross her mind that she'd ever pierce him on their first encounter. He gave her a big grin as he continued to hack at the cult members who fruitlessly kept attacking him.

"What's going on I can't see you?" Severin piped in.

"Remember that demon?"

"Yes, are you fighting it?"

"No. I'm not fighting him."

"What? What's going on and what do you mean by him?"

"The demon is a him and I'm not fighting him. I'm fighting with him." Severin was silent on the other line.

"He looks human but I can smell the demon. So far he's just looking at me while slaughtering the cult and giving me these quirky smiles. If he worked for Brimstone as my field partner, I could get lazy. He's a monster!" Rayne wouldn't admit it now but she was already attracted to this demon. He was handsome and strong. She definately noticed his bright blue eyes. Of course they stood out against his scarlet red coat and silver/white hair.

She didn't have to do anything exept stand and watch. occasionally drinking the would-be runaway member.

Dante-

'This chick's hot!' Dante thought this to himself as he finished off the remainders. The only flaw she seemingly had was that she was a vampire or something. He could get used to her real fast. As soon as he was done he decided to try and make some convesation.

"So. Who are you talkin too babe?" During the fight (Dante nor this red head stranger could call it a fight. Or even a brawl) Dante heard her talking to what seemed like herself.

"None of you're concern and don't call me babe. We haven't even had a first date yet." Oh yeah. He's liking her already.

"Well then can I at least get your name?"

"Agent BloodRayne. Or just Rayne. You?"

"Well you're the first chick I've met who gave me her name willingly." He knew who ever she was talking to would run a background check on him. If her informer declared them enemies, he'd hate to ruin such a pretty lady.

"I normally don't give out my name. But, something tells me you and I have a lot in common. So, how about that name." 'She's persistant. Fine then.'

"The name's Dante. Now that we know each other, why don't we head over to my place? Don't worry. It's comfy."

"Sure, why not?" He could not believe that she had just said yes. Something was definately up.
