Devil May Cry

Dimensions to your world and the next

Chapter 31

Warnings: Language, and violence

*Author's Note: I'm so sorry, people! I accidently put up two of chapter thirty! I'm sorry! You have a thousand apologies from me! I just fixed it, so since you didn't read the actual chapter twenty-nine, then I just put it up! I'm sorry, I'll try not to make another mistake like that. I don't have any excuses to be doing mistakes like that, although I wish I could say it's stress from making two youtube videos at the same time as doing five or more chapters a day. But, I can't, 'cause it's not good enough. I'm soooo sorry you guys!

Slowly, you got up from the floor, taking silent steps towards the door. You listened to the sounds of impalement.

Something was going on, and you wanted to know what. You closed your eyes and put all concentration on listening.

Voices were heard and the sound of steel. One voice in particular crossed your mind. One demonic. A Devil's voice.

You shot your eyes open.

"Devil Trigger!" you shouted. He had to make it, you were sure of it. You remembered that voice. It may not be his normal sexy tone, but it was still awesomely cool. You were more then excited. How he transformed to his Devil Trigger body, you had no idea. He seemed too weak to transform, but you weren't complaining. Hopefully, he might get you out of here soon. Should you call for him? Was that necessary? He could just sniff you out. You sighed, hearing the loud noises were making you anxious. You bit your bottom lip to suppress your demanding nature. You wanted out, bad.

"C'mon, Dante..." you whispered, lightly banging on the bronze door with your fist. The noises sounded closer. A smile appeared on your lips, until you heard another noise. A cackle and brush of stone against stone. You furrowed your brow. That sounded awfully close. Again, the same sound but now it sounded like it was coming from behind you. Your body tensed. The statues, they couldn't be...?

You couldn't move, frozen at that space you occupied. No, this could not be happening, not now. You closed your eyes tightly, swallowing down a lump in your throat. You had to. There was no choice. Slowly, you turned. Everything seemed still, but unusual. The statues were closer, and in a position that they had not been in before. A tall statue of a woman stood not too far from you. She looked to be made out of white stone. She was made to look like she was wearing body armor and a helmet. A sword was held tightly on her right hand, a shield on the other. Gladiator much?

You swear you heard it move, and yet it stood there as if you were hallucinating. It seemed to mock you. You narrowed your eyes towards it. It could have been your imagination and the sounds you heard from beyond the door was probably playing tricks on you, but your eyes did not deceive you. It was way closer, so were the others. Immediately, you turned to the door, wrapping your hands around the knob and tried turning it. No use.

"Oh, c'mon," you cried desperately. That cackling and brushing sound again. Your eyes widened. You turned your head quickly and gasped. The stone statues were indeed moving towards you, glowing a light blue aura around them. "You have got to be kidding me." You began forcing the door open, banging it. "Dante!" you shouted, but no one was going to help you. A swooshing sound was heard as if something cut the air. Instinctively you dodged to the side, a stone blade hitting down the area you stood. Your breathing became sharp and now you could hear a weird sound. You couldn't pin point what it was. It was hard to explain. You looked towards the other statues and one of them were glowing yellow fire balls, surrounding it in an orbit. Your mouth gapped open.

"No way." The fire balls shot towards you and you ducked down quickly. The force hit towards the door, a loud explosion echoed through the air as the door was broken open. You scrambled to your feet and ran out the door, the statues going after you. Another statue shot a fire ball at your feet and you instantly fell, the other fire balls missing and hitting the wall behind you. You struggled to get to your feet, a blade coming straight for you. "I did not sign up for this," you remarked. "How did they even come alive in the first place?!" You got to your feet and started to literally run for you life down the hall. You tried your best navigating back to the room Dante was in--if he was still in there. That demonic voice echoed through the halls, blowing you a sense of relief. He was close. Suddenly, an arrow flew over your head, missing you by a few inches.

"They have arrows, too?" you questione somewhat unsurprised, and quickened your pace. "Dante! Where are you!"

Suddenly, a figure was thrown from the doors to the right, the doors flapped open and you caught a glimpse of their familiarity. The figure was a body of a demon. You ran towards the door only to be thrown back from a powerful attack.

You didn't have the chance to see who it was that induced that attack. You fell on your back with a grunt.

"_________?" You looked up, Dante's Trigger form fighting against Aeon, both with their swords. Eerious' body was seen far in the room, lying on the floor unconscious.

"How did you get out!" Aeon shouted.

"Ask your statue buddies," you remarked, pointing towards the pack that had been still following at a slow pace. Aeon glanced at them while blocking Dante's attack.

"Your aura has awakened them," Aeon muttered. Dante recognized his state of distraction and turned towards you, running at a quick speed. Aeon came back to reality and ran after him, his speed quick, but not fast enough. "Close the doors!" he shouted aloud throughout the halls.

"Up we go," Dante said as he quickly picked you up, throwing you over his shoulder on his back. "Hold on," he told you.

You nodded, wrapping your legs around his waist and your arms around his neck.

"How did you turn Devil Trigger?" you had to ask as Dante ran for the doors.

"I'll explain that later, first we gotta get out of here." You nodded in agreement, looking forward. The halls seem shorter then before with Dante's lightening speed. He followed along the walls to the twists and turns and found his way toward the front doors. You smiled in triumph, but the grin on your face was swept away when you saw demons standing guard in front of the doors. They were those same scrawny, scaly demons before. You bit your bottom lip.

"How are we going to get past them?" you asked.

"The old fashioned way," Dante replied. You blinked, what did he mean? Somehow, he quickened his speed. You widened your eyes when you noticed he wasn't going to slow down. You closed your eyes, holding tightly when you felt Dante running past, smashing against the many demons. He tackled through the entrance doors, the wood collapsing at his devil strength. The old fashioned way would be to open the door and leave, you scowled.
