*Author's Note: Yay! Let's see if Dante does more things to trigger nervousness!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
"Okay, ________, now concentrate," Dante told you. You nodded your head and closed your eyes, relaxing your body as you took easy breaths. Okay, I can do this, just focus. "It's just the same thing like last time, except you have to focus more, got it?" You nodded again in response and Dante smirked. "Good." You wiggled your fingers that lay limply by your side, trying to relax them too. Just remember what he said; imagine you transporting your energy into his body...Mm, into that sexy body of his--Damnit! _______, focus! All right, it's a simple task, just relax. Soon enough you felt your skin becoming cold, like a wind that only you could feel brush against your skin. The energy inside you was circling in your stomach.
"O-okay, what do I do now?" you asked slowly. He didn't answer. You were about to open your mouth to call to him when he began to speak.
"Babe, you're glowing," he whispered.
"What--?"
"Keep your focus," Dante interrupted instantly. You slightly nodded your head. You furrowed your brow as you heard his steps come forward. You swallowed hard, a wave of nerves forming. Your body felt frozen, goosebumps appearing upon the surface of your skin. Tightening your eyes shut, you continued to listen for him, wondering what on earth he was up to. "Can we transfer energy by touch, too?" Dante asked. Why was he asking? He knew you had no idea.
"I don't know," you replied. You heard Dante sigh and his foot steps stop in front of you. Silence formed around the place once again as you waited. For what, you didn't know. Suddenly, you felt the warm touch of Dante's fingers against the area just below your collarbone. You shot your eyes open. Your power was becoming overwhelming. You could feel a surge of energy form in your chest. A thunderbolt struck Dante's fingers; his body flew back while yours did the same in the opposite direction. Your back hit hard against the trunk of a tree. You groaned, sliding back onto ground, slumping your shoulders as you landed on your rear. You slightly opened your eyes; Dante was slowly getting back on his feet, his body glowing for a split second before turning back to normal. He ran up to your body, kneeling in front of you as he lifted your chin.
"Are you okay?" he asked. You shook your head.
"What happened? It's exactly the same thing that happened with Lucinda."
"Yeah, I know. You need some professional help to control your energy, looks like I'm not qualified enough. C'mon."
Dante then lifted your body up in his arms and began walking down the forest.
"Where are we going?" you asked.
"Anywhere safe. Aeon is probably thinking of a plan by now and for all we know his minions could be hiding in the forest right now."
You gulped at the thought. "They wouldn't...would they?" Dante nodded his head and you sighed. You wondered for a second. When Dante body flew back, he was glowing, maybe after all that, a bit of energy was still transferred. "Dante, did you feel something when you were pushed back from me?"
Dante looked down at you with a cocked up brow. "Like what?"
"You were glowing before you ran up to me."
Dante stopped walking, looking back forward and closing his eyes. You watched carefully, curious to what he was doing. Suddenly, crackles were heard from his body, orange lightening bolts appearing around his body. A flash of orange light formed, his body transformed to his Devil Trigger. You smiled, but the expression was ripped from your face when that same flash formed, his body becoming back to normal. Dante cursed under his breath.
"Um, what was that?" you asked.
Dante let out an irritated sigh and continued walking. "I don't have enough energy to stay in my Devil Trigger. Looks like we're walking."
"No, wait." A determine look formed into your eyes. "Lets try again." Dante ceased his steps.
"What?"
You nodded to him. "Third time's a charm, right?"
"Are you sure you're up to it?" Dante asked with concern and you nodded again. "Fine." He laid you back on your feet, holding you to keep steady until you gained back your balance. "Okay, what do you suggest?"
"The same deal, but since we have the risk of flying backwards again, I suggest we try a different way."
A grin curled up on Dante's lips. "Nah, I got an idea." You tilted your head towards him, confused. "We'll do the same thing, I'll just approach you differently."
"In what way?"
"Just trust me."
And you did. You closed your eyes back again, working on the same routine you had done before. You stood relaxed, your limbs non-moving, your breath steady. In no time you were glowing once again, that same feeling in your stomach again. At least you had gotten that down, but what was Dante's plan? You waited for it.
"Ready, babe?" Dante asked. You nodded your head. You felt his arms slid around you, making your body go tense, what was his plan? "Just relax..." he whispered and you obeyed obediently, a little skeptical. Suddenly, you felt that same overwhelming feeling as before. You tightened your eyes shut, waiting to be flown back again but you felt Dante's grip tight, and then his lips met yours. What the...? you asked yourself. That was his plan? But oddly enough, the energy you felt that was circulating your stomach, the same energy that felt so overwhelming, felt drained. You melted into the kiss, your body growing weak, as if drowning. Dante parted from you, his body overpowered, pumped up. "________, you okay?" he asked, seeing your eyes become droopy.
"I think...you took too much." All went black.

*Author's Note: Heheh ^^ I find this highly comical, just because of the way he found out how to work, and how he took too much, dunno why.
