Part II

Chapter 3:

The Last Promise

"Milk man?" Evyn frowned holding her cup of wine, looking at her older brother then to Lady and Trish. "Like…the job?"

"He's talking about the white demon." Lady stated.

"White demon?" Evyn frowned.

"He wanted my soul because of dear old dad." Dante stated looking at his sister with narrowed eyes. "Keep an eye out Vyn. He'll be looking for you too."

Evyn looked at her brother and nodded her head slowly.


The youngest Sparda child yawned, walking down the streets of Capulet city dressed in her usual jacket, and all black attire. She held a fresh cup of coffee from the local café, taking small sips when she sensed something coming up to her. Taking one step back, she dodged a large silver blade flying at her then getting stuck in the opposite wall. The woman watch as a large buff white demon appeared in front of her.

"So…you must be the White Demon, I heard about." Evyn hummed takin a sip of her coffee. "The same one wh-"

The White Demon ran straight at Evyn with one of his swords out ready to stab her. "As Sparda's spawn, I shall have your soul!"

Evyn easily jumped over the White Demon, landed behind the demon and looked at him. "My soul huh? Is that what you said to my brother? Why…does this sound like a theme." Evyn hummed and quickly dodged another swing from the White Demon before she ran through the alleyway and getting away from him.


"Apprentice?" Evyn frowned looking at her older brother. "Daddy's apprentice? Why would he want our soul?"

"Power, I'm guessing." Dante shrugged.

"Blood of a human and a devil." Evyn hummed looking down at the water with a small chuckle. "I've done nothing noteworthy, you're the one who's always pissing off the big heads downstairs."

Dante shrugged once again. "I suppose, but you did do one noteworthy thing."

"Which is….?"

"Saving the whole world, and befriending a god." Dante pointed out looking at his sister with a smirk. "Not many can say that."

Evyn chuckled. "Which part? Saving the world or befriending a god."

"The god part." Dante added in turning around. "I should head back. Just listen, be careful out there Vyn." With that he walked off.

Evyn watch her brother walked off. "I haven't heard the name 'Vyn' in a long time. Wonder what brought that out."


The next day, Evyn found herself looking up at the park statue, staring at the face of a father she never knew. She turned her head at the sound of Patty's panic voice, the young woman chuckled at the little girl, turning her attention over she noticed a pale male with long black hair and dressed in all black. With a shrug, the young woman walked up to him.

"You know, Patty never breaks a promise." Evyn stated, standing next to the male.

The man turned his attention over to her with a soft expression. "I see." He turns back towards Patty's fading figure. "An innocent child, the world needs more of them around."

"I agree, except...I don't think innocent children likes to gamble." Evyn hummed. "So, how you meet her?"

"Huh?" The man blinked looking up at Evyn confused.

"Patty, the girl. How you meet her?" Evyn asked. "It's a red alert to adults when a strange man is talking to a little girl. Especially in the park."

The man blinked before letting out a small chuckle. "I see…I met her and this Dante fellow at a restaurant."

Evyn nodded slowly. "I see." She look up at the time before shrugging. "Well, I'll leave you be."

The man watched as the young woman walked off, a small smile formed on his face before looking up at the statue. "You would be proud Sparda. Your son stands defending the humans from the demons, while your daughter stands as a guardian for earth. They are both in your image."

"What a cute little girl." A deep mysterious voice chuckled.

"Yes…she is." The male sighed.

"No doubt that girl will grieve too….if Dante and Evyn should end up dead." The voice said with a chuckle.


"You know, I can just make you dinner." Evyn sighed looking at her brother, then at the restaurant.

"With what?" Dante huffed turning away from the diner.

"With shit I can find in the market, and left at your place." Evyn hummed walking next to her brother. "By the way, who's the guy in black."

"Guy in black?" Dante asked looking at her.

"Yeah, I saw Patty talking to the guy at the park." Evyn stated.

"Oh him. Yeah I met him here with a strawberry sundae." Dante hummed. "So, what were they talking about."

"Well, I couldn't catch all of it. But from what I can tell, she was telling him about us."

"Us?"

Evyn nodded. "Yeah, apparently she was complaining about you, then complementing you. She then started to talk about me, and then us."

Dante nodded his head slowly. "I see…"

"She's starting to see you as something more than just a care giver." Evyn stated looking up at him. "And you're starting to see her as something other than a random kid."

"What makes you say that?" Dante asked.

"When you took that job to find this 'King' at that gambling boat. The way you reacted…was the same way mom did with us." Evyn stated grabbing her twins hand. "I know….in this job we can't afford connections to those innocent. Not after mom…not after…"

Dante look at his sister and sighed pulling her into a hug. "I know where you're going with this…and I won't confirm nor deny what you said. But I get it. I get it…"

"We just keep on loosing people huh." Evyn muttered.

"You're talking about Stark, aren't ya." Dante sighed.

"He was an idiot for giving out his address to a terrorist." Evyn sighed leaning her head on his chest. "Look where that got him…dead."

Dante nodded. "Come on, let's go. We'll have pizza, you'll pay and I'll bring out the strongest shit I got stored away."

Evyn chuckled. "You never change."

"You know I did." Dante smiled. "We both did."


"I see…a duel with me, huh?" Dante hummed leaning against his pool table. "Not with Evyn."

"In truth, either of you would be fine…" The male in black stated looking out the window.

"Because both of us are Sparda's children." Evyn muttered, from her spot on the stairs.

The male in black said nothing to that, only looking out the window, before opening his mouth. "Please run, both of you. My brother should not fight you. And you, what could you have to gain by fighting him?"

"Even if I…we, don't have anything to gain, he does. Doesn't he?" Dante stated looking at the man. "Because word is that if he gets my or my sister's soul or whatever, he'll get the same powers as our old man."

"We don't know who spread that rumor." Evyn stated getting the man's attention. "But in the end…"

"Your brother's just another one of those losers who wants to capture it." Dante finished.

"Another one with dreams of becoming king of the demon world." Evyn added in pushing a strand of hair away from her face. "Are we right?"

The man closed his eyes and stated. "You two don't understand anything about my brother. He just wants to fight someone strong. He has no intentions of becoming king, and ruling over the demon world."

"What about you?" Evyn hummed.

"In truth, don't you want it even more than your brother does?" Dante asked. "Wanting our soul…"

As soon as the lightning hits, the three moved in unison. The mysterious demon held a sword to Dante, who blocked it with Ivory, while Evyn held a gun to the demon's head. The three stood there, their weapons drawn. After a few minutes, the three lowered their weapons and Dante left leaving the two behind.

"You're not going to follow him?"

Evyn shook her head, putting her gun away. "No…because I know. Between us, Dante is the most powerful."

The demon looks at her in surprise. "What do you mean…?"

"Dante…is the most human out of us." Evyn stated walking over to the desk picking up the photo of Eva. "He accepts both sides, in a way."

"And you?"

"Depends. I know who Mommy and Daddy are. Do I accept what I am? That's…something different." Evyn sighed. "Come on let's go watch."


Evyn stood next to the statue of Sparda, her hood brought over her head, as she watches her brother give Baul the killing blow. She watch Modeus walk up to his brother's dead body and falling down on his knees.

"Brother…" Modeus muttered looking down. "Two thousand years ago, when the demon and human worlds were connected. Sparda, my brother, and I made a promise. We promised we'd each live true to our aspirations and carry them out. Soon afterwards, Sparda came to this land all alone, to protect the human world. And my brother never aligned himself with either world, merely waiting devotedly for Sparda to return. Yes….dueling with Sparda, the best swordsman in the demon realm was his only reason for living. I abandoned my sword. It had begun to disgust me. It created nothing, and could even rob my brother of his reason to live."

Dante turned to look at his sister and shook his head. He turned his head slightly to look back at Modeus. "And since I killed your reason to live, now your only reason to keep living is to take revenge against me?" He watch as Modeus called upon his crimson blade from the ground. "You guys couldn't be any more old-fashioned. Kinda pathetic, if you ask me."

Evyn watch Modus run towards Dante with the intent to kill. She watch as tears from his eyes mixed with the rain falling from the sky. As soon as the lightning hit, she watched the killing blow be dealt and closed her eyes. "So…even a full demon can cry…"

Dante walked up to his sister and placed a hand on her shoulder. "Yeah…"

"Makes me wonder…." She look up at the statue of their father. "Did he cry when he took his final breath…did he think of us…of mom?"

Dante look up at the statue. "Yeah….I think he did…You know…those brothers taught me something."

"What…"

"Vergil…he may had a reason for living." Dante muttered getting a surprised look from his sister. "Trying to get the old man's power…it might have been to protect both of us."

"Really?" Evyn frowned.

"Maybe…or those old-fashioned coots made me sentimental." Dante sighed. "Come on, let's go back to the shop. I need a drink."

Evyn chuckled looking down. "All right. So what you're going to tell Patty? She was looking forward to making him a strawberry sundae."

"I'll improvise. It's what I do."

"What you do, is make yourself look like a stupid as dick."


Evyn sat on her bed looking at an old photo of her family, when she and her siblings were younger. With a sigh she took a long swig of her bottle of scotch.

"Damn it. How the hell did you find me."

She look up at the door with narrowed eyes.

"Barton."
