"Talk"
'Thought'
In another room of this big old tower, we see Team DRWBY in the middle of fighting some bloody demon birds, which were quite a challenge to deal with since they needed to be killed in a certain way - 'Shoot First, Hit Next'. Luckily, this was an easy quick fix; the Team Leader was in charge of shooting everything, as he seemed to have unlimited ammo and had the Gunslinger Style ability. Once they turned into stone, the Teammate quickly rushed in and destroyed the demon statues. It was a simple plan and easy to do, though it was made harder due to a certain Jester continuously making fun of them, mocking them, and laughing very loudly, which echoed throughout the entire room.
"Do You Still Like Him Now Ruby?!"
Weiss was the most annoyed by this, and would unnecessarily destroy the Demon Statues in violent ways with her Myrtenaster.
"No..."
Ruby said in defeat, as she quickly and precisely slashed the demon in half with her Crescent Rose, making it a very clean cut.
"Weiss, leave her alone, I hate it when you get mad at someone even though she didn't do anything..."
Blake, who wore the same exhausted expression, used her Ribbon Mode to grab the Demon Birds with it and swing/throw them away.
"Just because your the most mature, doesn't make you the mom of this team, Blake~"
Yang teased her partner, as she managed to punch the stone statue, causing it to explode with a single Ember Celica shot, killing all of the demons in the process. The Devil Hunter finally holstered his guns.
"I can't imagine myself as a dad, I'm more of a cool uncle type of guy, like I'll spoil the kid's, but don't take the responsibility if they did something bad."
Dante gave his two random two cents as he watched his team rest up and reload their weapons.
"Come on Dante, don't say that, I know you'll make an amazing father."
Ruby tried her best to sound supportive.
"If you want some extra training, you can be my 'daddy'~"
Yang could not pass up that perfect opportunity to make a flirty and perverted comment that her sister had set up for her, which made the Red Coat raise his eyebrows and smirk.
"Really Yang? Did you really just say that?..."
Weiss shook her head in disappointment for such an inappropriate comment; the Brawler and Devil laughed at her misery.
"Let's just go already..."
Blake decided to end it before they started either fighting or making any more jokes; she wasn't in the mood to deal with such headaches today. The entire team had their hands up in surrender, not wanting to risk releasing a bag full of angry kittens. The Faunus gave one last glare before walking off to the next room.
"Fear the Grumpy Cat."
Dante quipped before following the Grumpy Cat, to which the rest followed, and being careful not to anger someone who rarely got mad – that didn't involve racism, anyway. The Team DRWBY continued to walk around the big tower, killing some more low-level demons, and then finally arriving at some random room. They entered, and once inside, the team saw two large pillars that stood beside a massive door. On top of those pillars were two muscular demons with very small heads.
"Brother, Brother, I smell royals entering our chambers."
The Red Demon was the first to speak, which instantly confused the RWBY girls, and caused the Red Coats to sigh in annoyance.
"I see that Brother, and these mortal females must be his wives, how exciting~"
The Blue Demon replied, and any questions the Four Ladies had were instantly replaced by bright red embarrassment and even more confused blushing.
"We must entertain our Prince and his wives."
The Red Demon continued to both speak and embarrass the Mortal Females, which the Leader found amusing and said nothing.
"You're right, we have to be gracious hosts!"
The Blue Demon was excited to entertain such special people.
"Er, what should we do?"
The Red Demon realized he hadn't prepared anything, and didn't know what to do next.
"I don't know! I've never entertained a Royal Family before!"
Before the two demons could continue talking, they both finally noticed the embarrassed expressions on the girl's and the Devil Hunter just trying to hold in his laughter.
"Brother, I think our guests are annoyed and confused?"
The Red Demon couldn't help but point out the emotions his guests were expressing.
"Confused about what? Is it because the Prince and one of his Wives are-"
Before the Blue Demon could guess as to why they were acting this way, the Feline Ninja finally snapped and glared at them.
"We're Not Dante's Wives! We're Just Here To Reach The Top Of The Tower!"
Blake was beyond frustrated and angry, causing her teammates to take a step back, not wanting to get caught in her kitty fury.
"If you're not the brides of Sparda, then we can't let you through."
The Red Demon slowly stood up, taking his sword from the stone pillar he had been sitting on.
"That's Right! We Cannot Let You Pass!"
The Blue Demon did the same, once the two were up, they both jumped down and landed on the ground a few feet in front of them. Upon closer inspection, the two demon heads were not on their bodies, but were instead on the handles of the swords, which caused a certain Weapon Nerd to gasp in shock.
"Oh My Gosh, ARE THEY LIVING WEAPONS?!"
Ruby could not believe her eyes; the thought of seeing living weapons was something she wanted to see and examine so badly.
"Not the time to nerd out sis!"
Yang shouted at her sister, as she and everyone else quickly readied their weapons and prepared to fight.
"Brother, you handle the mortals, I'll deal with the Prince."
The Red Demon quickly dashed forward and swiftly swung his flaming sword down at the Devil Hunter, who quickly activated Swordmaster Style and blocked the attack.
"Yes Brother, Great Plan!"
The Blue Demon quickly dashed forward and quickly swung his windy sword down on the RWBY girls, Blake, Weiss, and Ruby jumped away to avoid the attack, but Yang crossed her arms and blocked/stopped the blade with her yellow gauntlets, which broke the ground beneath her. The headless body then raised a fist and tried to smash the blonde away, but the Ninja Kitty came in to block/stop it with her two swords. This moment of pause was enough for the Ice Queen to stab the ground beneath the Blue Demon's feet, getting him stuck, while the Devil Huntress jumped and landed on the demonic arms, before quickly spinning and slashing the upper body and chest of the Demon with her deadly scythe, causing the body great pain. The Red Demon saw that his brother was in trouble, so after pushing away the Devil Hunter, he sent a wave of fire at them, which both made the girls jump away, and melt the ice away. Unfortunately, when he helped his brother, the Red Coat managed to get in close and stabbed his sword deep into the Red Demon's chest.
"Brother! Catch!"
The Red Demon threw his weapon/head at his Brother, who caught it and got ready to continue. His first target was Blake; he rushed forward and rapidly started slashing at her. She was able to deflect and block most of the attacks with her Gambol Shroud, but soon she had to use her Shadow to evade and escape. The Blue Demon would've chased after her, but was stopped when both the Devil Hunter and Huntress, who stood on top of the pillars, and were shooting rapidly at him, did so. This made the body frustrated as he used the wind and fire to launch some type of Fire Blast at the two. The two shooters stopped firing and jumped away to safety. With them out, Weiss had to step in. Using her ability, she summoned a bunch of Glyphs around the Demon. Once that was set up, she activated her Lightning Dust in her blade, before stepping on one of the symbols, which quickly launched her forward and zoomed around the Blue Demon. Each time she got close, she either stabbed or slashed her enemy with her electrified Myrtenaster. The headless body tried to block some of the attacks, but was mostly receiving all the electric shock stabs and slashes, with no other choice, the Blue Demon slammed both swords on the ground, causing a mini explosion of wind and fire, which managed to knock back the Schnee. Unfortunately for him, it now left him wide open, to which the Brawler took advantage of, slamming her fist together, which seemed to have activated her Semblance, judging by her flaming hair and red eyes, she then rushed forwards, quickly getting in front of him, and then performing a very hard and very powerful Uppercut Blast, a mix of using her own rising power and the Ember Celica shotgun blast, this attack was strong enough to send the headless body straight into a wall, breaking more than just bones, and make the weapons go flying up to the air. Once that was done, Yang turns off her power and lets out a small breath of relief.
"WooHoo! Now Wasn't That Fun Or What?!~"
Dante felt pumped and was really having a lot of fun with his teammates… Who didn't seem to feel the same way as they all stared or glared at him.
"What did they mean by 'Prince'?..."
Blake narrowed her eyes and crossed her arms; both she and the rest of RWBY were either confused or suspicious.
"Uhhh..."
Dante found himself in a situation that he didn't know how to deal with; though, before he could say or do anything, the swords/heads fell back down and stabbed into the ground.
"This is so exciting~"
The Blue Sword spoke first, causing everyone to look at it.
"We have been waiting for a long time for this moment~"
The Red Sword also spoke; the team was wondering what it was saying.
"Yes, a very long time~"
The Blue Sword continues.
"For someone stronger than us~"
The Red Sword also continued.
"Someone who can control us~"
What the Blue Sword said made the RWBY girls finally understand what was happening.
"My name is Agni~"
The Red Fire Sword was now known as Agni.
"And my name is Rudra, you shall take us with you~"
The Blue Wind Sword was now known as Rudra, and finally made his request to be taken and used by Dante, who walked up to him.
"We Could Be A Great Help To You!~"
Both of them spoke with such hopefulness and eagerness; the Devil Hunter rubbed his chin and let out a small hum.
"Okay, but on one condition."
Before Dante could agree, he wanted to make something clear with the living weapons.
"What is it?"
Rudra quickly asked.
"Name it!"
Angi was eager to accept any deal or condition.
"No talking."
Dante glares at them, before taking a glance at the Hoodie Girl, whose puppy dog eyes cause him to sigh.
"Unless you're alone with Ruby."
Dante sighed and crossed his arms, making his conditions, which made the Devil Hunter very happy.
"Fair enough."
Agni agrees to the condition.
"As you wish."
As did Rudra, once the two accepted the rules, Dante finally agreed, picked up the swords, and started to 'dance' with them, expertly swinging and slashing them around, letting out a wave of wind and fire with each attack, before ending the show with a stylish pose. He then looked up at the team, waiting for their reactions.
"... We still want answers."
Bluntly put, which most agreed upon, though Ruby was the only one who liked it, causing the Devil Hunter to pout.
"Should we tell her about the-"
Before the swords could finish their attack, the Red Coat quickly bounced their heads together and glared at them.
"No talking!"
Meanwhile, the Mystery Lady was in the middle of resting on a rock, reloading her guns, and checking her supplies.
"Well, well."
Before she could stand up and leave, she heard a voice that made her stop walking.
"You've grown stronger."
The Creepy Man seemed to appear behind her, which made her quickly turn around and aim her guns at him
"You point a gun at me? Your own kin? Your dear papa?"
The Weirdo let out a mocking smile, causing her to glare.
"The only family I ever had was my mother, And She's Dead!"
She quickly shot at the man, who seemed to be her father oddly enough
"You break my heart, after all, it was I who gave you your name."
The man suddenly disappeared, so she pulled out both guns and tried her best to find him; when she looked up, it was too late.
"My darling daughter!~"
Then she was met with a book to the face, which distracted her long enough for him to drop down, grab her arm, and throw her off the tower, while also retrieving his book. She tried her best to shoot him, but missed every time and only managed to graze his cheek, which caused him to wipe the blood as he walked back inside. Soon, we see Team DRWBY moving out again, getting closer to the top.
"Ok, we'll let you explain yourself after all of this is done, ok?"
Blake crossed her arms and glared at the Devil Hunter, which made him sigh, before reaching out a hand and suddenly grabbing the Strange Person from mid-fall, surprising everyone.
"Well, this is my kind of rain, no wonder the sky looks so funny today~"
Dante quickly started to flirt with the Mystery Lady he had just saved.
"Whoa, it's the Lady from earlier."
Ruby couldn't help but point out.
"Why does he flirt with her and not me..."
Yang grumbled and crossed her arms in a jealous fashion; the Unusual Girl, after a moment of confusion, quickly pointed her guns at the Devil Hunter.
"Let me go!"
The strange person spoke in an angry tone, which confused everyone
"Um, you do realize that you will fall again if he does?"
Weiss couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and not understand the Mystery Lady's hostility.
"She's right you know, would be a shame to see you become a pretty little stain on the road~"
Dante continued to flirt with her, which earned him a shot to the head, causing him to fall back and drop the Unusual Girl, who then fell again. Luckily, she managed to stop herself from falling by pulling out her rocket launcher and stabbing it into the side of the wall, which caused her to sigh in relief.
"What the hell was that for?!
The Strange Person looked up to see the Devil Hunter had stood back up and had the bullet between his teeth, to which he quickly spit it out.
"Here I am trying to help you, and you show your thanks by shooting me?!
Dante then lets out a sigh and begins to walk away.
"Whatever, do as you please."
Dante let out a huff as he began to walk away; the RWBY girls also took this chance to look at the mystery lady.
"Um, we'll help you up later, but at the moment you're in the way, so we'll come back after we're done, ok?"
After what just happened, Ruby still wanted to be nice and let the Strange Person know that she'd be fine; before she and her teammates quickly left and followed their Leader.
"Such an ungrateful person."
Yang crossed her arms as she walked and caught up to the Red Coat.
"I know right?"
Weiss couldn't help but agree.
"Let's just hope she listens this time and doesn't jump off out of spite."
Blake shook her head in annoyance, and with that, Team DRWBY was nearly at the top of the tower.
"... Hey Look, A Demon Laser."
"SOOOOO COOOOOL!~"
Don't know if this is true, but I'm pretty sure Dante and Vergil and Nero would count as Royalty, right?
(Might have plans if that's true, maybe, btw the girl's don't have any royal smell)
