Skyhawker's back, fellow creatures of darkness! Well, now that Dante has met up with Morrigan and Lilith, he is ready to battle against anything! But, when demon turn out to much for this trio, who can save them? I'll give you a hint, she's a hip young cat with a talent for singing!

Dante kicked the door to his shop down, and exited onto the street, with Morrigan and Lilith close by. They only walked a few steps, when Lilith suddenly stopped. Dante looked behind him and saw Lilith. "Yo, Lil, why did you stop?" "Something's coming...something very, very bad." Then, multiple shattering sounds were heard. In a matter of seconds, the trio was surrounded by an amassing of human size, Grim Reaper wanna-bes, complete with scythes. "Hellprides. I hate Hellprides."

Dante pulled his sword, and smiled. "Well, looks like their playing our song, Reb, ol' girl! Let's dance!" Morrigan dropped into a battle-ready stance, as did Lilith. "Careful, Dante, we don't know what these creatures can do." "Please, Morgan, I can handle these freaks." Morrigan scoffed, "My name is Morrigan, MORRIGAN! And, these demons are empowered by a sinister aura. Something unfamiliar, yet strangely, I feel as if I know this aura...wait, Dante!" Dante was already charging toward one of the Hellprides at blinding speeds. "Ready or not, here I come!" He went to slash one across the chest, but ten, including the victim, leapt five feet into the air, screeching madly. "What the fuck?" The ten quickly came careening down, scythes poised to turn Dante into mincemeat! However, Dante, using his enhanced agility, leapt out of the way, just as the mini-reapers crashed into the ground. "They never used to do that!" "You see!?," Morrigan berated, "Next time, listen to the succubus!" "Okay, okay, Morgan, I will." "MORRIGAN!" Then, Dante said, "Okay, that's it. No more kid stuff. Let's party!"

Dante spun his sword, and said, "ARE YA READY!!!!" Then, Dante struck six of the demons with a barrage of savage strikes with Rebellion, and entered into a rapid flurry of stabs (Million Stab attack), then he slammed his sword into the ground, and spun in a fashion similar to Neo from the Matrix, striking the six plus five more, and finally struck them with a colossal slash, saying, "Down and out!" This was one of Dante's signature moves, the Dance Macabre. The eleven were broken and battered, fading away into their primary element, sand. "That's what I'm talking about. These guys aren't so tough!" However, before the son of Sparda could gloat any further, twenty-two demons appeared. "But, I have been wrong before."

Morrigan was fending off the demons in her own manner, using a mix of martial arts and magic, giving two demons a roundhouse kick to three of the demons, and slashing three more with her wings, which were now in the form of pendulum blades, while taking some time to guard by covering her body with her wings, like a shield. Then she held her right wrist, threw her hands back and shouted, "SOUL FIST!" She thrusted her fist forward, causing a basketball size blue flame bat to shoot toward five more of the demons, obliterating them on contact. "Never mess with an Aensland." Then, ten more appeared in their place. "Oh, for the love of Satan!!"

Lilith charged toward ten of the demons, screaming, wings the form of blades, and sliced through all of them, then she shouted, "SOUL FLASH!" A smaller version of the Soul Fist attack, this destroyed three demons, and badly wounding three more. "Oh, yeah! No one beats Lilith!" Just then, six more demons appeared. "Oh, come on!!"

Morrigan, Lilith, and Dante kept fighting, trying to stay alive, all the while being forced back into the center of the street. "This is no use, Dante!," Morrigan shouted. "Hey, we still alive?" "Yeah, but I'm real exhausted!," Lilith cried. "Well, not me! I've never felt better!" However, Dante was lying through his teeth. He truly was tired out of his mind. Suddenly, a loud screeching could be heard. The Hellprides looked up, then bowed. Dante looked around, Morrigan and Lilith doing the same. The air rippled in front of them, and a larger reaper burst through, spinning a glowing blue scythe. "Great, a Hell Vanguard! I'm too old for this shit!" Sensing the three were tired, the Vanguard smiled, rose it's scythe and prepared to strike.

Just then, a small white cat jumped upon the Vanguard's head, and began to scratching furiously at the reaper's face, causing it to thrash, taking out more of the Hellprides, clearing the field. Then, the cat jumped off. Morrigan smiled and said, "Nice of you to show up, Felicia." The cat turned, revealing a long blue tuft of fur on it's head. The cat leapt into the air, and suddenly transformed!

The cat was now a beautiful woman, with a body similar to Morrigan's, minus the clothing and slightly more muscular. The only thing keeping her decent were two strips of fur covering her "areas" on the chest, and one panty-like patch on her lower body. Also, some fur were on her arms and legs, a ring on her biceps and thighs, and fur covering her lower arms and legs, ending in paw/hand or foot combos, complete with claws. She also had a tail coming out from just above her hindquarters, and cat's ears on top of her head, accompanying her long blue hair. She turned her head, revealing her face, a sort of innocent pop star face, with green cat's eyes and a cheerful smile. The catgirl, now known as Felicia, then turned to the Vanguard and said, in a cool yet cheerful voice, "Hey, you big Grim Reaper knockoff! I don't take kindly to giant robe wearing yahoos, trying to turn MY friends into mincemeat! Ya like pickin' on people smaller than you? Well, try me!"

Felicia swiftly charged toward the Vanguard, and curled into a ball, dashing toward it, striking it multiple times before entering a powerful clawed uppercut (Rolling Buckler). Then, while in the air, she rocketed down in a powerful twisting kick (Delta Kick), and when she landed on the ground, she leapt into the air, and shouted "NEKO SPIKE!" A ball of energy formed in Felicia's right paw, and she tossed it, and spiked it, hitting the Vanguard dead center. The Vanguard was showing signs of fatigue, and Dante saw this as his chance to finish it. "Time for a little old-school." He picked up Rebellion, and dashed toward the Vanguard, sword pointed ahead, at a breakneck speed (Stinger) and impaled the reaper's skull, instantly killing it. "See ya in Hell."

After the battle, Dante dusted himself off, and said, "You sure came in the nick of time, kitty. Tell me, what's your name?" The catgirl smiled happily and said, "I'm Felicia, professional dancer, singer and performer extraordinare! Also, I'm one helluva fighter!" "Yeah, I noticed. So, how did you know we needed help?" Again, she smiled and said, "Well, I was on tour, doing my "Pretty Kitty Review," when I noticed the red storm clouds hovering over this city, so I stopped here to see what was up, when I smelled that foul stench coming form the other side of your building, so I decided to help out, and now, I'm supposing that you needed it." Dante chuckled and said, "Thanks, but I could've handled it. After all, I am a professional demon slayer." "Not to mention modest! Listen close, if I hadn't come, you would be sliced bologna by now! You could show a little appreciation!" "Okay, kitty. Thanks." Felicia pouted at this sarcastic remark, but then snapped out of it, and walked to Morrigan. "So, Morg, what's up? Why did ya team up with tall, red and conceited?" Morrigan smiled kindly, and said, "Dante isn't really like that, he's just too proud to accept the fact that you actually helped him in a task he thought he had down pat." "Oh!" Felicia walked over to Dante again, after a brief whisper from Morrigan, and an expression of worry. "So, Dante, was it?" "Yeah?" If you need help getting a place to sleep during this little excursion, Morrigan would be happy to lend her castle!" "OK, Felicia, but the problem is, how do we get there!" "Problem solved! Follow me!"

A few minutes later, Felicia had led the devil hunter and the two succubi to the Devil City Train Station. "So, why did you lead us here, kitty?" Felicia stamped her foot twice near Platform 3, and Dante instinctively expected her to slap, or claw him for the kitty remark. But, just then, a large puff of steam emanated from the tracks, as if the tracks were red-hot and had water poured on them, then suddenly, a large old-fashioned locomotive appeared, blue and pink, with a large metal sign, with a white cat in the middle, and two yellow ribbons that said, "Pretty Kitty Review! Come See Felicia, the Coolest Cat on Earth!"

Dante eyed the craft suspiciously. "This is our transportation? An old run-down train?" "This train is anything but run-down, D-Man! This train is how I've been gettin' around for all my tours! And it'll help us to get to Morrigan's castle quicker!" Dante wasn't about to argue, and he knew there was no other way, so he grudgingly got on board the train, as well as Morrigan and Lilith. As soon as they entered, though, they were met with a young man of about 26 or 27, with silver hair, a slim, muscular body, green eyes, and wearing a purple long sleeved shirt and purple karate pants. He stood up to his full height, he was about 6 inches taller than Felicia, but also had a sort of kind air around him. "So, Felicia," Dante asked, "who's this young man?" Felicia blushed slightly. "This is Jon Talbain, my traveling companion." Jon then added, in a voice that resonated with kindness, yet also had an air of determined strength, "And soon, I may become more than just the companion." Again, Felicia blushed, this time with more intensity. "So, should we expect any... 'uninvited guests' to drop by?" At this, the catgirl smiled and said, "No need to worry, man! I'm not making promises, but I'm sure that no demons will come to this train!" "Cool. So, let's get this show on the road!" Then, the train lurched forward, and began to chug along the tracks, slowly but surely accelerating. Then, a few minutes later the train was out of sight of Devil City. A new mission had just started, and Dante knew that this was going to be, for lack of better term, "one Hell of a party!"

Well, this is good, but what other dangers await?! Find out in the next update! Oh and FYI, Anita will be in her adulthood form, although I may give her a new wardrobe, and rename most of the attacks to better suit the Darkstalkers.
