Chapter 3

At about ten o'clock that night was when Maria and Jason's pagers went off.

"I'll call them..." Maria said as she took out her cell phone and called her boss.

"What do you need sir?" she asked.

"You need to get back to that warehouse... now." he sounded urgent...

"Why? What happened?"

"There's a big demon... the four of you need to get there and protect the public!"

"Yes sir, we'll be right there." Maria said as she hung up the phone and ran in.

"We need to get back to that warehouse. A big demon is there now, and we need to take care of it." she said as the three boys got up ready to go.

When they got back to the warehouse, there were more devils than their were before. They all attacked at once. The three boys used their guns and bullets flew everywhere while Maria simply used her Yamato replica. Nero also used Yamato more than his gun. Dante was having fun at the "party" as he always said. He was also amazed that Maria was so much like his elder twin in so many ways.

Finally the devils were dwindling.

"Where the hell is this huge demon?" Maria said.

"I don't know... " Jason said... but then the two part demons were silent and stood still like a deer in headlights.

Dante and Nero sensed it too, but didn't know why they reacted like this.

"No fucking way!" Maria said angrily as she ran out of sight.

"Oh no..." Jason said running after her.

"What's..."

"Its that demon I told you about..." Jason said before Nero could finish his sentence.

At that the two part demons and one half demon ran to try and catch up with Maria.

"Now she's reminding me a lot of Vergil..." Dante said seriously.

"I know..." Jason said as he ran to her cousin.

When the got to the big demon, they saw Maria fighting with everything she had. Slashing, stabbing, running on, everything that she learned from using Vergil's techniques.

"You've gotten better Maria..." the demon said coldly.

"Don't you DARE address me as if you knew me!" she snarled as she attacked only to be pinned against the wall.

"Hey! Let her go!"Jason yelled as he proceeded to shoot at the demon.

"I see her little playmate is here... ah... Dante... Son of Sparda... I was wondering when you would show up... I have already met your brother..."

"What! That's impossible!" Dante said allowed. "He's dead! And by the looks of it, your pretty young... You couldn't have met him..."

"You don't know?" the demon said with a snicker. He moved away to reveal yet another person who was pinned to the other side of the wall... A man in all blue and had his hair the same color and style as Dante. The demon let the man go as he fell to the ground possibly unconscious.

"Vergil!" Dante exclaimed as he ran to his fallen, bloody elder twin brother.

"I thought he was dead!" Jason said.

Maria, who had gotten free after the distraction of Vergil, grabbed her replica of Yamato. "Who cares!" she exclaimed as she ran to the demon with a crazy vengeance.

While the demon was distracted by a brave Maria, dante ran over to Vergil.

"hey... Verg... You ok?"

"Don't call me that..." Vergil said weakly. He never changed. Dante rolled his eyes.

"How are you alive? How did you get here?" Dante asked. As usual, Vergil spoke to him a matter of factly, and explained everything that happened.

"Some idiotic scientist humans used the place where Temen ni gru was as a site into different worlds. They thought that with some kind of portals, the demons would be gone from our world completely. Instead, they opened a new portal into this world, killing themselves in the process. They took me into this world and kept me here. They wrote a plot for a video game on our story, and made the people believe that you killed me before fighting Mundus. However, what really happened was that they created some kind of being and gave him Yamato and my medallion our mother gave me.

"They kept me in this world and had me work undercover with the same government corporation as those two did. We were never introduced because they did not want them to both know that they were from our dimension. Then this demon showed up. He is after Sparda's decendants. All of them."

"But... I thought we were the only ones left."

"are you really that much of an idiot Dante?" Vergil asked.

"Do your really think that of all the years the two of us had spent with other humans... women... that we are the only ones in our family?"

"I don't understand... when have you ever gone with a woman!" Dante asked with an eyebrow raised.

"That is for another time..." Vergil said rolling his eyes. "First we have to get rid of this guy before he does anything else.

"Yea... I guess so..." Dante said.

While this conversation was going on, Nero, Jason, and Maria were fighting the big demon on their own. Maria tried to stop the others, but they insisted that she needed help. Finally after Vergil had gotten back his strenghth, Dante gave him Force Edge, so he could give the demon a finishing move. However before he could kill him more, Maria stopped him.

"Don't you dare finish him off Vergil." She said to him unphased.

"You... can't... kill me... you foolish girl... you are nothing like your father..." the demon said, but then she sliced his head just like Vergil had done with Beowulf.

"Screw you..." she said darkly. "Hmph..." Maria hopped down to the ground and walked ahead of the group without a word.

"Maria..." Jason started but was stabbed by Maria.

"Shut up!" she said twisting and taking the sword out again walking ahead.

"I HATE it when she does that..." Jason whined.

"Hmph..." Vergil said following Maria.

"Wait... what did that guy mean 'she is nothing like her father'..." Dante asked allowed.

"I don't know, but it seemed like she knew who her father was..." Jason noticed. "Hey... where's Nero?"

"Don't tell me the kid ran off!" Dante said. "We better go find him..."
