(Previously)
"Yeah but now we may just quit and disappear for a while and join up with you guys if you don't mind." Zina said as she began to eat her lunch.
Corvin looked over at his fathers and step-father and saw them looking over the twins and muttering to each other. After a few more minutes of discussion Virgil, Dante, and Nero looked over at the twins and said, "Alright but first you need to prove what you can do with weapons not just magic."
"Agreed, we'll show you later at a more secure place." The twins said in perfect sync.
----------------- (Line break) ---------------------
(Continuation)
"Alright, now that that is out of our way time to shop till you all drop!" Zina said as she hopped up and grabbed her brother and Corvin. Walking out into the streets of muggle London Zina dragged her two hostages over to a gothic type store that doubled as a tattoo and piercing parlor. The sign over the door bares the name Twilit Path. At the clothes counter was a striking young woman wearing a deep crimson red dress that was held up by belts and had a strap around her neck.
"Zina, Xane back so soon," she said as she looked over the group. As she watched the twins pulling Corvin to the displays she turned to the adults and asked, "Who's the victim for today's shopping spree."
"He is," Nero said while pointing over towards Corvin.
"Well sit down and be prepared for the long day of saying yes, no, hell no, and maybe." A voice from the back said as he walked out to the front. The man was a tall broody, and wore pants but no shirt which showed off his many piercing and tattoos.
"Hey Trent, I think that Corvin here will be getting a lot of different styles today, so think you can help us out with some tats and maybe some piercing that will match his new look and attitude." Xane said as he and Zina began pulling off different outfits for Corvin.
"Here go try these and then we will see what needs to be changed out to make it your own unique style." Zina said as she ushered him over to the changing rooms. Once he was finished changing and had stepped back out Zina immediately began to grab different accessories that would go great with it. By the time Zina had finished Corvin was wearing a deep green trench coat that left the front open, had no sleeves, and had silver lining the edges, his pants were tight fitting leather that did not restrict movement and he also had fingerless gloves and a black choker with spikes covering his throat.
"Now all you need is some tats and piercing that will bring out your personality and then you will be done." Xane said as he browsed over his own new accessories that he and his sister had picked out for themselves. Trent and his coworker, Tanaya, began to search through the many different designs that they had that might match Corvins new look.
"How about this set right here," Tanaya said as she picked up a tattoo design that went with an ear piercing and a tongue piercing.
"Got any myth creatures or fearsome animals back their?" Xane said as he came over to the desk that had all of the tattoos.
"Yeah, their over on the wall right here," Trent said as he showed them all the creature tats they had. On the wall were great designs of dragons, griffins, lions, basilisks, snakes, and even some hippogriphs. As Corvin spotted the detailed sketches of the mythical creatures Tanaya came over and said, "This is a magically owned shop but we mostly work with muggles or muggle borns."
"So you're a witch?" Nero asked from beside Zina where he was looking over some accessories that she thought he would love.
"Yes, half-blood," she said as she pulled down some of the snakes and lions and some griffins and hippogriphs. As she set them down near the other patterns that could match with some of the piercing.
"Which do you want Mr. Potter." Trent said as he watched the young devil browse.
"How did you know?" Corvin asked as he watched the store workers.
"Well, even though everyone knows you by your scar, we knew that someone that wished to change was going to be dragged here by some of our friends soon and the only one that we figured would catch their attention is Harry Potter." Trent said as he pointed over towards twins.
"Well I didn't know he would have found out about everything that Dumbles had hidden from him when we met him but it definitely made it a lot easier than having to track down these two dunder heads and convince you lot that what we would have said was the truth. Now you already know and don't think that if we had told you sooner then something or another wouldn't have happened; would you have believed what we had to say at all before now?" Xane said as he watched how the four part devils reacted to his words.
"Plus we couldn't ever get close to you as Harry Potter and these guys only realized truth a few months ago so really even if you would have believed us we couldn't have gotten to you tell you." Zina stated.
After a few minutes of thought the others realized the truth of their words and went back to looking around the shop. Corvin looked over the ones on the desk and chose the one Tanaya picked to match with the piercing, a basilisk and hippogriph.
"Can you make a specialty one of three animals as I describe them, also?" Corvin asked as he looked up at Tanaya and Trent.
"Sure what do they look like and do you want a background for them?" Tanaya asked as she grabbed a sketch pad to do a basic sketch of what he wanted.
"A wolf with amber eyes and brown and grey fur, medium height for wolves and strong though older looking, a dog that is bear size that is black as pitch and has laughing grey eyes, and finally a stag that is light and medium brown and good set of antlers with a light brown eyes." Corvin said as Tanaya started sketching. "Can you make them standing near an impaled sword and have a full moon illuminating them in the background?"
"Sure, just give me a few minutes to sketch a rough draft and you can tell me about any changes you want to it." Tanaya said as she sketched out the tat. After a few minutes of waiting she showed them all what she had created.
"How's this?" She asked as she showed them the sketch. It had a full moon just rising over the horizon and a sword similar to Rebellion stuck in the ground with the wolf on its left, the dog on its right, and the stag right behind it. The wolf was looking at everything with a fierce sense of protection, while the dog seemed to be laughing as the stag stayed close to sword and watched over the wolf and dog with a look of loving annoyance.
"Perfect," was all Corvin could say as he looked over the sketch.
"Well where do you want all of these placed and any other piercing?"
"This one on my lower back," He said pointing to the sketch. "The Hippogriph in grey and blue tints on my left wrist, the basilisk around my right forearm, the griffon on my left bicep, and the design around my neck below the choker and spreads down to my chest and shoulders; the earring in my right lobe, a tongue bar and some in my left eyebrow and that should be enough for now." Corvin said as the others looked at him like he was crazy, except for the twins.
"When you're done with his I want a line of runes saying twilit path to dawn or dark, a pair of silver wings add onto my devil on my back, and a design like his around my thigh." Zina said while everyone turned to look at her.
"And I would like to have a couple of piercing done also." Xane said as he looked around the shop.
"You guys are nuts!" Dante said as he just stared at the twins and his son.
"No we just like pain," Zina said as Corvin got prepped for his tats and piercing. Dante just stared at them like they were the craziest people he had ever met. Corvin watched as the two workers prepped him for his first piercing and first tattoo the specialty one.
"Now are you sure that you want all of this done at the same time because it will hurt like a bitch to have your back being tattooed and for me to start piercing?" Tanaya asked as she worried about her new client and friend.
"Yeah, I'm used to pain and besides my magic won't leave me hurting for long." Corvin says as Trent began tattooing.
"Okay. Well first I'll do your earring and work to your tongue, okay?" Tanaya said as she readied the piercing gun. Corvin just watched as she readied the ear and then fired the gun. Letting out a hiss of pain Corvin stayed perfectly still and just waited for all of the tats and piercing to be done with. After a couple of hours Corvin relaxed as the final tattoo was finished.
"You are as insanely masochistic as the twins," Tanaya said as she sat there staring at him. After a minute she grabbed a mirror and handed it to him. Corvin looked over his new look and was amazed at how different he look from plain Harry.
"Well now, don't you look dashingly good?" Zina said as she watched him inspect himself as Xane got his piercing done.
"Definitely an improvement from plain Harry," Corvin said as Xane hopped down from the bench and looked himself over from in front of the mirror. Zina stepped up to the bench and Trent got to work on her wings and then went on to the line of runes and finished up with the design on her thigh. By the time all three were done Dante and Nero were seriously wondering if they were crazy or just really liked the pain. Virgil did not care at the least because either solution just meant that they would not be stop easily.
"Well who's paying for all of this and the three lunatics' masochistic streak of the day?" Trent asked as he cleaned up the supplies he used today.
"We are cause this is our treat to our new friend." Xane said as he handed Trent his debit card from Gringotts. After all of the accessories not currently worn were put in a bag the group left after promising to come back for more later.
"So, were do we go from here?" Nero asked as he looked around at the city streets still full even at dusk. After a few minutes of deliberation everyone agreed to an early diner at a local restaurant.
"So, where will all of us be staying for the next, oh, year or so?" Zina asked as she sipped at the wine she had ordered.
"Glad to see that I'm not the only one who doesn't want to be anywhere near Hogwarts right now." Corvin said as he drank some of the tea he ordered.
"Nope can't stand the thought of you at Hogwarts right now. You could spend it learning demon hunting from your parents." Xane said as he watched the waiter bring their food to them.
"But then Dumbles might find you out even in the Devil May Cry shop." Zina piped in.
"So then where do we go that they can't find us at?" Virgil asked while Dante and Nero just watched.
"We thought you would never ask!" The twins shouted together.
"You can come…" Zina started.
"Stay with us…" Xane continued.
"At our family home!" They finished together.
"Perfect," Corvin said as he smiled at the twins and laughed at the confused looks on Dante and Nero's faces.
