Conversations...

Lightning's near death experience and Dante's unexpected knock-out left Nero and everyone else worried and vengeful, but they all kept it together because revenge won't solve their problem.

Light?

Yes, Nero?

How do you feel about... come here.

Ok?

Lightning walks over to Nero who gently grabs her arm so they can talk outside.

Why did you drag me out the room?

Because I wanted to ask you in secret...

Yes?

How do you feel about... Dante?

Lightning couldn't really put it into words, Nero watched as her face flushed pink until... Dante arrives.

What y'all two takin about?

Well-

Nothin... I think Lady needs you.

Your hiding something-

Trish comes out and Lady seems to arguing with her, Dante and Lightning, and Nero listen to them.

Are you that dumb!?

No Lady, I'm saying this for your own good, stay out of battle your only a human!

Lightning's a human too!

At least, she's trained your... not even a veteran.

Lady slaps Trish in the face and this causes Lightning to get in between them, so that don't start a physical confrontation.

Okay you two, what's going on?

Ask the blond-haired demonic twit, standing in front of me holding her face.

I'll... BEAT YOU TO THE GROUND FOR THAT!

Nico comes out the room and stops Trish from lunging at Lady, Dante takes Lightning out of the way outside, while Nero stays to calm the other ladies down.

Conversations two...

Lightning is in Dante's grasp and he's being very gentle, she looks to his face and notices that he's looking at the stars.

Why are you looking at the stars?

Every night, I wish upon a shooting star for the life I always wanted, for my brother to see the error of his ways... I still love him deeply but he just, won't change.

Dante felt a tear leak from his eye and wiped it, Lightning took his hand and explained to him about her sister.

I understand, I love my sister, Serah deeply too and everyone that has always been in my life, our parents died when we were very young, I changed my name to Lightning to become stronger for Serah.

Lightning felt a tear leak from her eyes and wiped it too, Dante let go of her hand and leads her back inside with him...

Becoming stronger...

Nero's training Lightning this time and again is instructed to go easy because she's a human, the pink-haired woman draw her gunblade and went into a fighting stance as Nero summoned Red Queen.

(This guy isn't human either)

Ready?

Yes.

Nero dashed towards Lightning and her eyes went huge before rolling to the side, everyone else watched as they started.

(Damn it, I need to retreat away from him, think of a strategy)

(She's doing good)

Lightning got disarmed o her weapon and everyone's went huge, Nero swung one last time before she dodged him, glaring at him and Dante whisper to Trish that this fight needs to stop.

Alright enough.

Yes ma'am...

Lightning vs Virgil...

The pink-haired woman is at a church with Lady until the doors are flung open, the two Ladies get up and it's Virgil.

Light...what do we do?

Get behind me.

My..we meet again eh?

Your jokes are outdated, Dante's funnier than you.

Is that so, newbie?

Lightning had roasted Virgil and he called her a newbie, Lady allowed herself a short quiet laugh before listening for more.

Virgil, your so full of yourself, your bursting you own bubble, it's no wonder why your brother surpassed you...

Are you that dumb, you barely even know him and btw, your weaker than all of em...

Confusing me with others now are you, I can't plan on how ratchet your life must be.

My condolences on the butt kicking I gave you, such a embarrassing way to get humiliated.

More like your mind is so infantile that even listening to me, proves a trial...

Go to hell!

Virgil turns into his devil form and Lady becomes startled as Lightning drew her gunblade...
