Hello everyone, it's Dream Guardian Watcher. Sorry I have been gone for so long. Just dealing with a lot of stuff and just lost interest in writing. These past two years have been rough for everyone. I want to write more and try to finish this story. I hope you all like it.

The Dark Kingdom
480 Days after the Convergence
Within the Dark Kingdom, the land that was born when the Convergence combined the Dark Dimension and the Makai Kingdom, stood a castle. The scene travels to the castle's dining hall, sitting at the head of the table is one of the most powerful Darkstalkers to ever live: Morrigan Aensland. Morrigan is an extremely beautiful woman in her mid-thirties with long green hair, a pair of bat wings that came out of her head, and her back, she wears a skintight purple and black outfit that left little to the imagination.
Morrigan sat in her chair looking at a green stone. This is the Infinity Stone of Time, entrusted to her after the defeat of Ultron Sigma. Soon word got around about her having the stone and many creatures of the Dark Kingdom came to take the stone. Morrigan took down every one of them, with some help. Over the year, she has protected the Time Stone from those who would abuse it. Now….
Morrigan was using the stone to make the wax candles on the table melt with incredible speed and then reversed time to before they went even lit. She did this over and over again and it bored her to no end. "For a stone that can control all of time. It brings little joy in messing with time," said Morrigan.
Soon after defeating Ultron Sigma, Morrigan was offered a spot on the Avengers. Morrigan accepted the offer and took down many foes which gave her much entertainment. However, it soon become boring as fewer and fewer evil threats came around, so she left to protect the Dark Kingdom and the Time Stone.
One of Morrigan's servants came by and said, "Your dinner mistress." Soon servants came out with enough food for a feast, but Morrigan was left unfazed. Morrigan didn't need food, well, normal food anyway. She was the type of succubus that can feed on human dreams or seek any form of excitement to keep her alive. When she was stimulated, she could secrete a special enzyme that she can use to stay alive and avoid sucking the life out of people.
These past few months have been torture for Morrigan. Day in, day out was the same. There would be some poor fool that would try to take the Time Stone from her, but none succeeded. The one called Iron Man created a combat program and her servants installed it into the castle but even that was starting to lose its luster, no matter how smart the AI was. She needed something to do. She needed stimulation. She needed something, anything.
'If something doesn't happen soon, I am going to lose my mind,' thought Morrigan.
"Is there room for one more?" said a voice.
Morrigan, surprised by this, jumped out of her seat and got into a battle position. Her stance eased a little upon seeing the intruder. He's a man with white hair and cyan eyes. Wearing a red trenchcoat, black fingerless gloves, brown pants, and brown boots. He carries a black blade.
"Dante," says Morrigan.
"Hello Morrigan. How's the head of the Aensland house doing today?" asked Dante as pulled out a chair and propped his feet onto the table.
"Horrible. There is nothing to do anymore. Not a threat to the Dark Kingdom or Earth in months. I am bored Dante, please entertain me," whined Morrigan as she stretched out while showing off her figure to Dante.
"Sorry Morrigan, Doctor Strange sent me to check on you and the Time Stone," said Dante.
Morrigan frowns at this news. "The Time Stone is fine. Boring, but fine. No one has tried to take it for a long time now."
"That's good news. I'll stick around here, catch a break and get a bite before heading back and letting Strange know," said Dante as he grabbed a turkey leg from the dinner table and took a few bites.
Morrigan walks over to Dante, coming up behind him before slowly sliding her hands down his chest. "Do you really have to go? Stay the night. I wish to show you how…. hospitable I can be," whispered Morrigan into Dante's ear. Morrigan suddenly felt something cold poke her chin. She looked down and saw Ebony pointed at her.
"Sorry Morrigan, but I know what happens to people when they spend the night with you. You're nice and all but I'm just not interested right now," said Dante as he took another bite of the turkey leg he had.
Morrigan frowned and tightened her grip on Dante's shoulders. The succubus then threw Dante to the wall with tremendous speed and force. Dante lands into the wall, leaving a sizeable dent. Dante peeled himself off the wall and falls to the ground. Morrigan slowly walks towards the demon hunter.
"I have been lacking any meaningful stimulation for far too long. You will either give me what I want, or I'll take it from you," said Morrigan in a serious tone.
"So, we really doing this? Fine. Let's dance," replied Dante as he pointed Ebony and Ivory at Morrigan. Morrigan smiles with delight as she flies towards Dante. Dante shoots Ebony and Ivory and quicker than the eye could blink, Morrigan dodges every bullet.
Morrigan gets in close to Dante and attacks him with a barrage of kicks and swipes.
"Soul Fist!" yells Morrigan as a sphere of energy materializes and hits Dante, sending the demon hunter flying. Dante went sliding down the long dining table, hitting all the decorations and food, and scattering them onto the floor. The servants panicked upon seeing the food on the floor. However, Morrigan didn't care about the food on the floor, she had a much better meal in her sights.
"That all you got princess?" asked Dante.
"That was barely a warmup," answered Morrigan. Morrigan flies toward Dante.
"Fine by me," said Dante as he stomps on the table, making several plates fly up. Dante grabs them all and flings them towards the succubus. Morrigan dodges them and the plates hit the wall and become embedded into the wall. The servants yelp in fear and surprise. Morrigan closes the gap and unleashes her spears and tries to stab Dante. Dante blocks them all with Rebellion, dancing while blocking all the attacks with her sword.
Morrigan becomes a swarm of bats and surrounds Dante. Dante uses Ebony and Ivory to try and shoot down the bats. However, the bullets miss their marks as the swarm was too close to Dante. Dante changes tactics and grabs Rebellion once more and slashes at the bats. This works to take out a few bats.
"Come on! Stop being such a prick!" yelled Dante.
"Oh? Getting angry? Hohohoho. ~ Then how about this?" asked Morrigan as her face materializes in front of Dante, ready for a kiss. Dante pulls his head back in shock. Morrigan smiles wickedly at this and headbutts Dante, knocking him back. Dante does a backflip and tries to shoot Morrigan once more. Morrigan dodges but one lucky bullet grazes her shoulder.
"Tag. You're it," taunted Dante.
"Grr. A lucky shot but don't think you won yet," said Morrigan.
Dante nods and uses Rebellion to slash at the succubus. Morrigan uses her spears to deflect Dante's attacks. The spears keep deflecting as Dante shoots and slashes at both the spears and Morrigan as she flies around the demon hunter.
"Soul Fist!" yelled Morrigan as she fired another energy ball at Dante. Dante jumps away to dodge. Morrigan smiles as she disappears and reappears behind Dante and kicks him into the Soul Fist.
"Ah!" yelled Dante. Dante lands on his feet onto the table and holds himself in pain.
Morrigan floats down to stand on the table. "Is this all you have to offer? I have to say that I'm a little disappointed."
"I'm not done yet! Just give me a second to catch my breath," quipped Dante.
"Show me what you have," smiled Morrigan.
Dante charges at Morrigan, brandishing Ebony and Rebellion. He attacks with sword and bullets.
"Come on Dante, you should have something new at this point," taunted Morrigan.
"Alright, you asked for it…" said Dante as he was engulfed in flames, and in his place stood a black demon with piercing red eyes. Dante unlocked his Devil Trigger. Morrigan smiles as she gets into a fighting stance. Demon Dante brandishes his sword Sparta and points it at Morrigan. Morrigan launches spikes at Demon Dante.
Demon Dante deflects every attack, this makes Morrigan attack even faster. Dante deflects them all as he starts to walk closer to Morrigan. Morrigan sees this and begins to charge up a Soul Fist, keeping up her attacks. As soon as Demon Dante is close enough, he slashes at Morrigan. Morrigan barely dodges as the slice gets some of her green hair. Once safe she unleashes the charged soul fist point-blank at Dante's face. Demon Dante takes the hit and when the dust settles, it is revealed that he took little damage.
Morrigan smiles at this, "Oh. You are just starting to get my blood pumping."
"Good," said Demon Dante as he slashes at Morrigan again. The succubus queen blocks the attack with her wings. Dante keeps up his attacks, his swings steadily gaining more power as he puts in more effort. Morrigan grins with delight. This is going to be a drawn-out battle with Dante seemingly not tiring.
"I've waited for so long for a fight like this," said Morrigan her grin growing ear to ear.
"And I've been waiting for a chance to test this form out on a good sparring partner," quipped Dante.
Morrigan retains her smile as she lunges at Dante once more. Dante lunges as well and slashes at Morrigan. She dodges and fires another soul fist. Dante tanks the hit and begins firing magic at her. The magic does some damage to Morrigan, but she shakes it off and flies away to gain some distance. Dante leaps after her.
Morrigan smiles as her prey falls into her trap. Morrigan unleashes a few small soul fists and throws them behind her. Once they get near Dante, they explode. Dante covers his eyes, leaving Morrigan to become a swarm of bats.
Dante sees the bats and fires his guns at Morrigan. Morrigan reappears in front of Dante's face, trying to go for another kiss. Dante breaks away and kicks Morrigan in the stomach. Morrigan is sent back a little, but she recovers quickly.
"This is getting exciting. Give me more," said Morrigan. Dante smiles and launches himself from a wall at high speeds and slashes furiously at Morrigan. Morrigan increases her speed at well; either blocking or dodging every attack.
The two fighters continue as both fighters are not tiring nor refuse to give in. Around them, the dining hall was turned into a wreck. Tables, chairs, food were caught in the crossfire of bullets and soul fists. Every window was shattered into dust. Neither combatant cared how much damage they were doing to the castle.
Dante lands onto the floor and pulls out his ice nunchucks. Morrigan sees this and gets excited, "Oooh. Some new toys to play with."
"You seem too hot, this ought to chill you out," quipped Dante.
Morrigan soars close to kick at Dante. Dante deflects the kicks with the nunchucks. The cooling power of the weapon gave Morrigan goosebumps. Dante begins to whip the nunchucks at Morrigan, but she dodges them, practically dancing around the attacks and Dante.
Dante continues to swing the ice nunchucks. It soon became a deadly tango between the succubus queen and demon hunter. Morrigan danced as she blocked Dante's nunchuck attacks. Morrigan's hands got dangerously close to Dante. Dante gets a few lucky hits, but Morrigan didn't mind, it just added to the excitement. Dante wasn't tiring either.
"YES! Give your all to me! Make me feel my blood rush through my veins," flirted Morrigan. Dante made his attacks faster than before. His speed got faster and faster as time went on. Morrigan either dodges or counters the attacks. However, Dante showed no signs of stopping.
Soon, Dante brings out a purple bat-themed electric guitar. Morrigan sees this and flies back. Dante begins to strum the strings creating lightning on the guitar. Soon Dante shreds on his guitar sending lightning towards Morrigan. "Raptor's not the only one with one of these!" said Dante.
Morrigan avoids the lightning with a smile on her face. "Yes. Conduct a concert of battle."
Dante grants that request by unleashing an epic guitar solo. Morrigan dodges the lightning while unleashing more soul fists. As the soul fists explode around Dante, he just calmly walks through the carnage continuing his epic solo. The dining hall was further destroyed as chandeliers fell to the floor and neither fighter cared.
Morrigan closes her eyes, and everything slows to a crawl. She listens to the sounds around her. The crackle of the lightning, the breaking wood, the smell of sweat. A fight she hungered for so long. Dante sees this and becomes confused, but then remembered that Morrigan fed off stimulation. His face became a shocked expression.
"What's the matter Dante?" asked Morrigan in a flirty tone.
"So, you're getting stronger thanks to the fight," said Dante.
"Not only that but I am finally having a good time. And it's all thanks to you," said Morrigan.
"Well, so far this form has proven me well," said Dante ready to fight some more.
"As much as I would like to continue, another time perhaps. I can't be bored with you too soon," flirted Morrigan and she floated in the air posing sexily for Dante.
"Fair enough," said Dante. Dante becomes human again as Morrigan absorbs her sweat from their battle and she becomes rejuvenated. It was like she had regained her youth.
"Thank you for the battle. It was delightful," said Morrigan as she winks at Dante.
"You're welcome," replies Dante.
"If you are up to it, I do have a favor to ask you," said Morrigan.
"What is it?" asked Dante.
Morrigan pulls out a letter, "Stark invited me to this event that is happening at a museum in New Metro City this evening. Black tie event. I need a plus one. Could you please be my plus one?" Morrigan gives Dante a flirty smile.
"Of course. Anything to help a lady. Just no tricks," answered Dante.
"I make no promises. You have a suit?" asked Morrigan.
"Yes, but it needs to be cleaned and repaired of holes," said Dante.
"Then I will have to make you a suit," said Morrigan as she snaps her fingers and gives Dante a tuxedo.
"Nice," said Dante as he checks out the suit. Morrigan snaps her fingers again and she gets a silky red dress with a low v neck to above her stomach. A hot number to catch everyone's attention. "Nice outfit."
"Thank you Son of Sparda. Ready to go?" replied Morrigan.
Dante offers an arm to her, "Always."
Morrigan takes it, and they disappear in a flash. The dining room was left a wreck and the servants attentively leave their hiding place. A light fixture crashes to the floor scaring them.
Thank you for reading this. I know it has been a long time. I hope I did Dante and Morrigan justice. I played Devil May Cry 5 and liked it. The rest of the story is going through some rewrites, but I hope it will make the story better.
Last two years have been rough on me, with the pandemic, I lost a dog, lost my DeviantArt, and the overall feeling of hopelessness. I want to get back to writing not because I have to but because I want to. I hope everyone understands.
Again, thank you for reading this. Please leave a review and follow and I'll see you next time. Bye.
