06 TRUTH
A Devil May Cry Fanfiction
"Drayn.." Nelo said quietly as he threw back the small figure with his long sword. The demon flung herself back and kicked against the wall, the wind whistling around her as she cocked an eyebrow up.
"What's the matter Nelo? Cat got your tongue? Meow."
"..Lady Drayn," Nelo started, briefly sighing in relief when he saw that Drayn had stopped attacking, and made a sour face looking at him from the name. "I find no point in doing this."
"Why not?" Drayn replied as she turned her face slightly to the left, looking at Nelo. "I think it's quite fun. Humans call this-"
"That's exactly the reason why I am asking. There is no use in playing human games here." Drayn looked at him before laughing. Her curls flipped wildly as she spat out a dribble of blood, and looked at Nelo. They had been fighting for the past two hours, and Nelo had yet struck a full blow, but didn't have a single cut on him. Drayn was bloody from head to toe, not necessarily all her blood but not necessarily not all her blood either.
Beauty.
Blood is the holy water, which makes demons look the most beautiful. Your eyes, and hair, stained with blood brings out the true beauty within. Nelo felt a cold blade pressed against his cheek as Drayn looked at him, her eyes cold as ice, and blood falling from her forehead. "Why do you bleed?"
"What?"
"Only humans bleed." Drayn looked dumbfounded before laughing.
"Demons bleed too you know."
"You are the first one...no…" A figure flashed in his mind.
White hair.
Same face.
V…r…g……il!
Who calls my name?
ER..GIL….V….ER..
Painful eyes.
GILVER
"It's cause I'm not all demon." Nelo looked down alarmingly at the girl. "Mundus said that he created me from the blood of a virgin mary." Drayn spat out another clump of blood as she started wiping her face with her sleeve. "I feel the human emotion of joy from bloodlust and slaughter. I feel the human emotion of love from lust and gluttony. I feel the human emotion of anger from rage and fury. I feel the human emotion of want from envy and jealousy. Mundus created me to see and listen to me everyday to know how feeble humans are. But how powerful they can become if they're given the power of darkness. If all humans became demons.."
Vergil.
"Together, they will be stronger then Mundus…or the Dark Knight Sparda himself." Nelo said nothing as Drayn retracted her blades and in a second they were back into fingers. Silence overcame the room as the two stood in front of eachother without a word until Drayn broke the silence once more.
"I am weak because I am human. I am strong because I am human."
…Dante Side…
Wind caressed Dante's cheek as he looked up at the mansion that towered over them. The rooms flashed with party lights and loud music and voices vibrated from within. "Some house party they're having when the owner just died." He said as Vadyr replied.
"It's a Masquerade Ball in honor of the deceased Jeremy Smith."
"Masquerade? This isn't the 18th Century."
"It's good to reflect on the past Dante, otherwise history will repeat itself." Dante peered over at Vadyr who fixed her hair. "Besides, I hear that Red the Mercenery is going to show himself tonight, to the daughter of Jeremy Smith."
"Who told you that?"
"Enzo. Didn't he tell you too?" Dante inwardly made a memo himself to beat the crap out of Enzo after this was done. Womanizer. Vadyr turned to Nevan who tugged at her dress.
"This is too covering Vadyr."
"You'll have to live with it Nevan. If you left it exposed like at home you would be the center of attention." Nevan mumbled as she tugged at her low cut dress, already exposing half of her breasts. It was two sheets of silk that covered her front and back, both connected by intertwining ribbon on the sides. Vadyr had bought a dress (with Dante's name) and torn it to shreds when Nevan had refused to wear it, being too covering. "Please?" The succubus looked at Vadyr then caressed her cheek.
"Alright." Dante watched the two, then mumbled.
"Lesbians." At once he felt a hot glare on his back.
"What did you say Dante?"
"Ignore him Vadyr, he's just jealous cause Angelline left him last night right when it was getting good."
"ooh, so that's what the thumping was last night."
"THAT WAS AGNI AND RUDRA!" Dante made a face as he swung Rebellion out of his sheath muttering. "This is why I hate women. An endless stream of annoyance." Jumping over the fence he landed on the moist dirt and stood up looking at the back door. "I'll go to the daughter. You two watch for any disctractions."
"Okie Dokie." A strong gust of wind, and the red figure was gone.
