All is well around here, so I'm back! Finally got the chance on playing Vergil's Downfall and I'm currently on Mission 3. It's thrilling about playing Vergil; he was very different from DMC3 but DmC Vergil has many cool moves, so to speak. But am I the only one who loves VD's plot? BTW, it's more like Vergil turned evil not by being brainwashed but by his own choice. In order to be more powerful, he needs to cut ties to the people around him, but it totally lose his sanity. It turned a misguided jackass into a demented monster-in-training. At least DmC is AU so I can give it to that since it leaves the possibility for a sequel.
This is a very short chapter. It was the aftermath of Kagura's disappearance. Here is chapter 2.
Fairy Tail is the property of Hiro Mashima, TV Tokyo, A-1 Pictures, and Funimation.
DmC: Devil May Cry belongs to Capcom and Ninja Theory.
Chapter 2: Loss
Something had troubled Charle. She is an Exceed just like Happy and Patherlily and she is Wendy's faithful companion. But she is also known for her ability to see 'visions' of what will happen in the future, including cataclysmic events.
"What is this feeling?" Charle was shaken in thought. As far as she can remember, she saw Erza and Kagura on her vision. Based on what she have seen on her vision is Kagura pushed Erza away and the latter was hit by an energy beam, making her disappear.
"Huh? Charle, what's wrong?" Wendy said, worried.
"Oh no. Erza, Kagura!" Charle exclaimed.
The girls' turned their attention on Charle. Milliana worried the most since the two are her closest friends. Lucy and Wendy are worried for a nakama like Erza.
"It seems trouble." Milliana said. "We need to get hurry."
"I'll go look for Gray and Natsu so they can come with us." Lucy told Milliana. Everyone nodded while Happy went to Lucy.
Milliana and the others went out from the inn and they ran into the forest, with Charle and Wendy leading the way. Both Erza and Kagura are the strongest female mages from their respective guilds but they were also their friends. For Milliana, Erza and Kagura are one of the few people to be considered as family.
Milliana thought in desperation."Kagura-chan, I hope you're fine!"
As the group reached the part of the forest few miles from the shore, they only saw Erza. Lucy along with Happy, Natsu and Gray arrived at the scene. Of all this, they never see Kagura anywhere. It was too late...
Erza turned to her comrades with a sad expression, tears flowing. Milliana first approached her. Then she asked. "Where is Kagura-chan?"
"I'll explain everything." Erza replied calmly as she wiped out her tears.
Everyone's eyes and ears are into the armoured mage. Erza recalled the events that happened.
"When we head back at the town, we saw some strange men. 12 of them. We asked them who they are but suddenly, they transformed into demons."
"Demons?" Natsu clenched her teeth.
"They're powerful demons. Not only that, I believe that they came from another world." Erza recounted. "That's because they made a portal."
"A portal? You mean a gateway to another dimension?" For Lucy, that sparks her.
"As far as I see it, you're right." Erza confirmed it to the Celestial Mage. "In order to stop them, we defeated those demons. But I didn't notice that the portal is gathering energy until..." she clenched her right hand in disgust
"Until what!?" Milliana became impatient at the moment. "Tell me!"
"She saved me by pushing me away. But she took the hit. Then a flash of light shielded my eyes. After that... she disappeared."
Everyone was stunned, especially Milliana. Mixed emotions of anger and sadness overwhelmed the cat woman as she grabbed Erza.
"Why!? Why didn't you do anything!?" Milliana yelled at her.
"I'm sorry..." that is all Erza wanted to say. And then silence flooded in everyone in a minute. Until Milliana speaks in tears...
"But... I understand what you are trying to say..." Milliana said between sobs. Erza was surprised on what Milliana said. "I know that... Kagura-chan tried to save you, but... but at the cost of her life... She sacrificed for you... so... so... it's not your fault. But I... I..."
Milliana hugged Erza, crying. Erza hugged her as a means of comfort, shedding her own tears once again. Team Natsu was saddened with the loss of a friend. But the mages of Mermaid Heel are hurt the most because Kagura was not only just their comrade but also part of their family. Beth is crying into Arania since Kagura was a big sister for her; Arania, on the other hand, share the same feeling. For Risley, Kagura is also a mentor to her since the former is the one who taught her Gravity Change magic. Milliana was hurt the most because she is one of her closest friends along with Erza; she met her years ago and back then, they have the same goal of vengeance against Jellal but Erza changed everything for her.
And above all, Erza. When they were kids, she saved her from the child hunters but this time, Kagura saved her. At the cost of her life. But one thing is for sure: Erza should live to the fullest and and fight for Uncle Rob, her comrades at Fairy Tail which is her family, Simon and of course, his sister Kagura.
And the whole atmosphere was filled with sorrow, regret, remorse, pain. Loss.
However...
A woman with long black hair was lying at the ground. It was Kagura. She still had her clothes and her Archenemy. She opened her eyes as she awake her senses.
"Am I... alive?"
Kagura looked around her. She touched her arm and even her torso. It tells her that she's not dead. Then she noticed her Archenemy.
"My sword..."
She picked it up and get up from the ground, using her sword to hold herself. As she looked around, she noticed something odd. The sky is crimson red, rocks floating everywhere. This was something strange. Something... surreal. Dark. Twisted. Above all, she was stunned...
"Where the hell... am I?"
So this is the end of Chapter 2. Next chapter is where I will introduce Vergil. Still need to work on this because I'm loving the game as of now.
Read & review and I'll see you guys later!
