*Author's Note: *Sigh* Sooo, now what?

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You reversed the van rather quickly, gritting your teeth at the pain your body was aching from. Dante went to the back of the van doing God only knew what. All you had to concentrate on was your driving; you didn't need more stress to fall on your shoulders, besides, Dante can look over himself, and possibly you, if you ended up crashing the car. You sighed and turned the car as you were reversing, aiming to go back on the road. You changed the car back into drive and slammed on the gas just as the blue car bumped the back of the van only slightly.

Dante slid the side door open, equipping himself with both Ebony and Ivory. He poked his head out and looked back at the blue car that was gaining quickly, after all, vans weren't that fast. He aimed back at Aeon, seeing the look of fury and rage in his eyes; oh yeah, no doubt he was pissed. Dante pulled the trigger, letting a bullet burst out of the barrel of the gun and hit the windshield of the demon's car. Dante smirked and continued. The blue car was driving in an out of control manner, after all, Dante did flatten the wheels.

You got to the road in no time and began driving straight to who knew where. Any where away from Aeon and his reckless driving, maybe. Every chance he got he would try to bump the back bumper of the car, sending you to get a little out of control, although he was having more trouble getting in control then you were. You tried everything you could to relax yourself. You were taking deep breaths, looking at the side mirrors every so often seeing that Aeon was catching up rather quickly. You could see that he was beginning to speed up to the right side of the van, where Dante had the door open.

Just as he got to the right side, Dante began shooting him rapidly with his twin pistols. He was hitting the windows and the side of the car where Aeon was driving, while the other demon that was once driving was in the back, as if waiting for something. Dante continued to shoot with an expression of pure amusement. Suddenly, Aeon began lowering down his window quickly and aimed a gun at Dante with his free hand. He instantly pulled the trigger sending a bullet towards Dante. The bullet hit Dante's chest, with a powerful blow and sending him to fall back against the opposite side of the car.

"Dante!" you cried out, seeing that blood was beginning to trickle down his bare chest.

"I'm fine, just keep driving," he muttered and pulled out the bullet from his wound, "I can't believe this guy has guns, too..." You sighed and looked forward, luckily for you there seemed to be no cars on the road, although you could see the sun begin to slowly rise. All you could hear in the background was gunshots, the loud noises causing a headache on your part. You could see the reflection in the mirrors that the blue car was beginning to drive faster. Slowly, you were beginning to panic, but you kept a firm grip on the steering wheel, vowing to keep your concentration in focus.

"What the hell is he doing?" Dante questioned to himself as he continued to shoot at the car every chance he got. The metal frame of the vehicle was punctured with many bullet holes, the windows were no better. You looked down at the speed meter, taking note that you were going over 100 km per hour. You took a big breath and kept your eyes on the road. Suddenly, you felt a hard bump at the side of the van, causing you to drive in the other lane. You immediately gained back control and went back to your original lane.

"Take this asshole." You turned the wheel quickly to the right so that the van bumped right against Aeon's car. You snickered seeing that he was beginning to lose control. Unfortunately, though, he was able to gain it back fast and gain more speed. "Shit..." you cussed to yourself.

"___________, keep the van steady," Dante ordered, poking his head through the door, while holding onto the frame.

"Okay," you told him. Dante again began shooting at the car while you kept a very good eye at the position Aeon were driving his vehicle. Eventually, Aeon was able to reach at the same point you were.

"Damn," you muttered under your breath when suddenly, the demon that was once in the car jumped onto the hood of the van. "Oh, shit!" you shouted as the demon jumped through the broken windshield that only had half of the glass still intact, as if untouched. The demon began to grab at you with its rather large claws. You began to lose control on the steering wheel, causing the car to begin to swerve off of the road.

"___________, keep the car steady!" Dante shouted as he began to lose balance and holding onto the side of the van.

"It's kind of hard to do that when there's demon trying to grab me!" you snapped and kicked at the demon.

"Shit," Dante cussed as he was about the aim at the demon, when the van ran into a ditch but still kept on going. Dante lost balance once again, not able to shoot.

"Don't you fucking touch me!" you yelled as you backed away from the demon while trying to control the steering wheel.

You looked through the windshield to see where the car was heading and your eyes immediately turned as wide as saucers. "Oh...my...God..." you whispered as you tried to slam on the breaks but your foot couldn't find the peddle in time. The van drove straight into a large oak tree. You hadn't had your seat belt on so you flew right out of the windshield, breaking the remaining glass that was still intact. You fell onto the grass, skidding a few feet before you stopped. You were out cold.

The demon in the car had died by impact right into the tree. As for Dante, the cardboard boxes had cushioned his impact from being too injured. Dante instantly kicked the boxes away from him, throwing away the one's that had fallen over his body.

"__________? You okay?" he asked. He got to his feet and looked over the front seat, seeing it was empty. He then jumped out of the van. The blue car and Aeon were no where in sight.

"___________?" he continued to call out. Dante continued to step further, walking to the front of the van to see that it went right into a tree, strangely enough though, the van seemed still well enough to drive. He turned and looked around seeing your figure lying on the grass with no hint of movement. He cussed under his breath and ran towards you, skidding on his knees to reach your body in a kneeling position. He turned your body over and lifted your head up.

Blood was trickling down your forehead and there was a cut on your lower lip. He weakly smiled, seeing that you were still breathing. Dante picked you up in his arms, standing up and making his way towards the semi-destroyed van. He opened the car door, sliding in and laying you beside him, resting your head on his lap. He took one more glance at you before changing the van into reverse and driving away from the tree.
