Dante pulled out his gun, aiming the barrel at the head of the demon and pulling the trigger. The demon's head was blown back and its hand let go of you. Dante pulled back his gun and brought his hand back on the wheel.

"Hold on, babe," he told you before turning the steering wheel in a snap. You tightly shut you eyes and held onto the handle of the car door and the dashboard as the van spun in a circle. You heard the screech of the tires and of the demon as it were thrown off of the ceiling of the car and onto the cold pavement. Dante pressed down on the gas peddle and drove off, leaving the body of the demon alone in the street. You threw you head back onto the seat.

"This is the beginning of something big, isn't it?" you asked softly.

"Maybe," Dante replied. You sighed and slouched back in your seat.

"How perfect..." you whispered. You gazed upon the rearview mirror and crossed your arms over your chest. Luckily for you no one was tailing your path. You propped your feet on the dashboard, starring into the distance. Silence over came the two of you, and being the one who loathed it, you instantly turned on the radio, changing it into a rock station.

"So, what now? Are we just going to keep driving until we get to Maxis' place?" you asked and looked over at Dante.

"Unless we want to drive in two days straight, then yeah," he remarked.

"Two days?!" you shouted with disbelief, "It takes two days to get there?" Dante nodded. You sighed, "It's getting late.

"Where are we staying for the night?"

"If we don't find a motel soon, then we're sleeping in the car."

"Yay," you replied in a gloomy voice, "well as long as I'm with you I'm safe, no?"

Dante smirked, "Safe, and among other things," he remarked slyly. You narrowed your eyes playfully at him; understanding what he was thinking about.

"Same as ever, like the videogame character. I swear Capcom got your personality perfectly in Devil May Cry 3," you said.

"And that would be...?" Dante asked, catching your gaze with his.

"Cocky, perverted and hot." You immediately slapped your hand over your mouth once you let the last word slip.

"Hot, hm?" Dante lips formed into a conceited smile. You blushed.

"Shut up. I let it slip..." you lowered your gaze away from his.

"You got the hots for me, don't you?" he asked in that unforgettable cocky tone.

"Let it go, Dante," you whispered as you could feel your cheeks burn harder.

"Fine, but I'll find out sooner or later," he said and looked forward again. You rolled your eyes and looked out the window into the empty streets. You looked into the dark alleyways, expecting something to jump out onto the van but there was nothing. Minutes elapsed and there was no sign of a motel in the streets. Dante ended up driving out of downtown and out of the city. He drove the van up a large hill. Only a few cars passed by through the solitude road.

"You'd think they'd be following us," you remarked glancing into the rearview mirror every so often.

"Eventually, they will, but until then, let's pull over," Dante replied and turned the car gently into the small forest, stopping the van several feet away from the road. He turned off the car. You took off your seat belt and looked at the back of the van.

"We sleeping back there?" you asked. Dante shrugged.

"Doesn't matter." You shrugged also and got up on the seat to make your way in the back. You moved a few boxes out of the way in order to gain room for you to sleep. Dante looked through the windows, making sure that the area was safe enough to be sleeping in. When he was content he made his way to the back also. You were already laying down, your back facing him and your hand tucked under your head like a pillow. Being close to the sliding door, you could feel the cold draft enter through the crevice. You shivered slightly until you felt something lay over your body.

Suddenly, you felt two arms wrap around your waist, pulling you closer. You blushed and looked over your shoulder at Dante. His coat was also lying across his body and above yours like a blanket.

"Dante, why are you...?" you trailed off when you noticed a grin on his face.

"It's cold out, and what better way to keep warm then body heat?" he remarked. You sighed and laid your head back over your hand.

"Good night, Dante," you said firmly and closed you eyes.

"Night, babe."
