Disclaimer: I don't own anything this is just a story for fun.

After the Magician and all the remaining zombies had been dealt with the Devil May Cry crew made sure all the scientists and staff were safe and accounted for, before the local authorities arrived to help clean things up. What no one knew was that the local authorities were employees of the DBR Corporation and had been given specific instructions to recover Curien's work, collect samples from the remains of the creatures, and collect Curien's corpse for transportation to the EFI Research Facility. The clean up team was very thorough with their assignment. One thing that surprised them on their clean up was finding the Magician.

Apparently though the Magician had exploded during it's fight with Dante not all of it's body was destroyed and what remained of the creature had simply been hurled off the balcony and to the ground below. The Magician's head, chest, and right arm were still intact. The clean up team reported their findings to Thornheart and Goldman who were pleased that Curien's most deadly creation had been found. True the Magician had killed Curien, but Thornheart and Goldman saw good use in the creature and wold take careful steps in making sure to control the Magician so they would not be met with a similar fate.

Goldman asked for the Magician to be transported to his base of operations, so he could begin repairing the creature and making it into a loyal minion, while Thornheart merely asked for some blood and skin samples from the Magician to further his own research and create more powerful zombies and mutants.

The body of Curien was taken to the EFI Research Facility and a random cadaver was created and placed in a urn that was labeled Curien. This was to sell the story Curien was dead and gone, to help prevent anyone from looking for his corpse and to hide the truth of what was really going on with Curien's body. Thornheart and Goldman didn't want anyone interfering with Curien's resurrection or evolution.

Curien's body arrived at the EFI Research Facility where it was quickly taken to the main lab by the staff. Curien's clothes, except his underwear were removed and the body was placed into a BioReactor tank of liquid. Various wires and tubes were connected to Curien's body as various colored liquids were pumped into the body to begin the resurrection and evolution process.

Thornheart and Goldman visited the EFI Research Facility to check on Curien. According to Curien's notes it would take a few years for the process to be complete. It slightly annoyed Thornheart and Goldman, but if the process worked and Curien returned from the dead with his mind fully intact then the wait was worth it. Until then Goldman was going to set his own plans into motion.

To be continued.
