Chapter Nine: Out of darkness.
I pulled blue rose from the holder hidden under my jacket before turning to mom and grabbing her by the shoulders.
"Nero Gabriel Angelo, have you carried that thing the whole time?" She scolded. Demons are destroying the town yet somehow I'm still the one in trouble. With a sigh I grabbed her gently by the chin and made her look in my eyes.
"Mom, please. Run straight home and do not stop. Get Dad and tell him to bring Red Queen then you and Kyrie hide in the basement. "I told her firmly. Taking this tone with your mom is a bad idea but I will deal with the punishment when the fear of dying has passed.
She was silent for a second before she nodded in understanding.
"If you get hurt I swear I will ground you until you are thirty." She stated before kissing me on the cheek. Without another word she turned and headed home.
"God will lead and guide me in the path of righteousness, even though that path lies through the darkest and most gloomy vale - through deep and dismal shades - in regions where there is no light, as if death had cast his dark and baleful shadow there. It is still a right path; it is a path of safety; and it will conduct me to bright regions beyond. In that dark and gloomy valley, though I could not guide myself, I will not be alarmed; I will not be afraid of wandering or of being lost; I will not fear any enemies there - for my Shepherd is there to guide me still." I said as I loaded Blue rose and headed for the flock of demons. I've never been one for this religious stuff but we all have a time in life when we need to pray.
With that out of the way I cocked my gun and hit the first of many demons right between the eyes.

For the first time since Nero left I am finally sober and I feel worse than I did before. I was sitting in my chair ignoring everyone in the room; all four of us have been at each other's throats.
"Brother or not, punish him. He drove young one away. He's looking at you, go! Go kill him!"
I was so lost in my devil's rambling that I was startled when the phone started ringing.
I wasn't in the mood to show off so I simply grabbed the phone and answered calmly.
"Devil May cry. Especially since his brother fucked all their lives up!" I answered before yelling the last part over to Vergil.
Before I could receive an insult from him a familiar voice brought me back to reality.
"Dante! I need your help. Demons came out of nowhere and Nero..Oh god, poor Nero. He's the only one fighting!"
"Abigail, where is he? Is he hurt?" I asked in a panic, jumping from my seat and putting on my gear while trying to balance the phone.
"I don't know if he's hurt he won't stop long enough to see." She cried.
"We're on our way, please be safe Abigail."
I slammed down the phone and looked up to see everyone waiting by the door, geared up and ready.
No matter the fight, family comes first.

It took us longer than I would have liked to get there but it couldn't be helped.
We could only stare in shock at the condition of the city. Buildings in shambles, shattered glass, things torched and more demons I have seen in my entire life.
"Vergil!" Called a deep familiar voice.
We turned to see James heading our way, using his gun to shoot any demon that got too close. Some of his techniques were a few I've seen the kid use. I guess Nero learned from his dad.
When he finally reached us we could tell something was wrong due to the panicked look on his face.
"No time to talk…If we don't hurry..Nero will die."
Probably 2 more chapters after this maybe just 1.
