Hello Sinners, I'm glad all of you enjoyed the birthday bash last chapter, and Eva and Michael got their swords and jackets and other stuff. Now that the birthday bash is over, it's time to move things along the line. But first some reviews.
RonaldM40196867: Yep, many of the Sins were at the party, Cherri is an Overlord and unbanned from the hotel, my favorite DMC games from canon are 4, 5, 3, 1, and 2. Favorite Sin is Pride and again, that is like killing them unless they pull out a facture of their powers willingly.
Dragon Blaze-X: thank you.
Brolyk445v2: It will or it won't depend on the answer.
Shadow Joestar: Yep, things in the hotel are going to get spicey.
Lightblade1121: I'll add her, as for the Heaven chapter, that will happen in the far future. Also, Maybe it is the Von Eldrtichs.
Rio Skyron: And what's funnier is he never got out of it.
AdanValdovinos3: Thank you for that rank. Also, Maybe it is. Who knows.
Gamelover41592: Thanks and I'm not going to make it into a loophole like "Curse you! I'll get you next time!"
ZeroTheOne: Carmilla is on the list.
Bromega2477: Seems like Carmilla is the most popular vote. Also, I want this story to focus on Dante and Vergil. Nero is still on Earth. So, No Nero.
Violagameboy: Mundus is officially dead. He is never coming back. And not a bad idea, I need to borrow that idea.
Boomboomabc123: Sorry, no Nero.
Akuma235: So you're saying they go to Earth and go in human disguises to meet the crew of Devil May Cry? Why does everyone want me to write Nero into this fanfic? Also, the wedding will happen.
Liger187: Maybe it is.
DevilsNeverCry: you're not the only one who thinks it's Sev. Yes, Pentious will be redeemed. Mammon is the most likely to be an Antagonist since he is the one sin no one likes.
Gwb620: Dante is a smart guy, but he's not observant all the time. It does take time.
Ilguardiano113: That I can imagine. Also whoever married Helsa, must be into tentacle Hentai.
A DmC Fan: Something to throw out there if she gets the vote.
PAC13L: You will find out at a later date.
Austinhodge379: That's going to be something, I can't say when, but it will be a big hit to Charlie, like in Canon.
Guest who is speaking Spanish: Stop, I'm serious. Stop suggesting stuff to my other stories. It getting annoying in fact, let me translate. Detente, lo digo en serio. Deja de sugerir cosas a mis otras historias. De hecho, se está volviendo molesto, déjame traducir.
LoneWolfND427: quite the decision to make for the Demon Hunter, also I'm happy that it's coming out, a little upset that Ruben Langdon will not be Dante but I understand he needs a break.
Clown2107: I know who you mean, and maybe it is him.
And Guys, Nero may not be in this story, I know some of you want to, but I have yet to learn how he will be included. He will have to be in Hell, but there is less chance of that happening. Anyway, Let's Dive into Hell!
Mission 8: Dollhouse
Morning hit as the sun made its way into Charlie and Vaggie's room, where Dante was sleeping soundly after Charlie welcomed him back. The light hit the room as the Son of Sparda slowly woke up. "Ugh, what time is it," he asked himself as he tried to look for a clock and saw that it was six. "Too early to get up," he groaned before his head hit the pillow again. As he tried to sleep more, he felt a pair of arms snake their way around his torso and neck. He looked to his side as he saw Charlie let out a comfortable moan as she cuddled right up to him.
The Princess of Hell was still asleep as she had a satisfied smile on her face. She pulled the Demon Hunter closer to her and she started to kiss the side of his neck. 'Charlie is still out cold. I guess I'm gonna be like this for another minute. Or… an hour,' he thought to himself as another pair of hands reached over to him. Cuddling next to him was Vaggie.
"Mmhmm…. Charlie~" Vaggie moaned in her sleep as she wrapped her arms around the Demon Hunter's waist. "Hun…. when have you been working out," she muttered in her sleep. She leaned her face in and let her lips touch Dante's abs, surprising him by the sudden act.
After waking up from her slumber, Charlie rubbed the sleep out of her eyes and saw what she was seeing. The Princess of Hell let out a small gasp as her face went red and had both hands covering her mouth.
Vaggie heard Charlie's gasp and wondered how she did that while she was kissing her. Vaggie opened her eye and was surprised she wasn't kissing Charlie. The Latina jumped out of bed and spat on the floor as he rubbed her mouth and cursed Spanish under her breath. "Dios mío, I need to wash my mouth out with vodka!"
"Vaggie, I think you're exaggerating," Dante told her. "And it wasn't that bad."
"Wait, you were trying?" Charlie asked the Son of Sparda.
"No. But I mean she did put a lot of effort into that kiss," Dante told Charlie as Vaggie went to the bathroom the noise of her brushing her teeth and gargled with a lot of alcoholic mouthwash. "Anyway, you slept well, babe?"
"Better with you by my side," Charlie giggled as she traced a circle on his bare chest. "It was one of the best nights since me and Vaggie got married."
"Good to know," Dante said before he kissed her. He then remembered the ring that was still in his coat pocket. He needed to tell not only the princess about what he had to do, but also had to tell Vaggie. Luckily, polygamy was legal in Hell and he was on good terms with Vaggie. Well, maybe not at this moment after she thought he was Charlie.
Vaggie returned from the bathroom, seeing her wife making out with the Demon Hunter. "You two want to breathe in some air?" she asked.
Both the Demon Hunter and the Princess of Hell separated at once. "Sorry, Vaggie," Charlie apologized as she figured her wife was not used to being shared with by the Demon Hunter.
"It's fine, hun. But maybe you should shower first," Vaggie suggested to her wife.
The Princess of Hell took a whiff of herself and she did smell like sweat as well as some bodily fluids. "Ugh! Yeah, I guess yesterday made me sweaty," she told herself as she gagged. Charlie got up from the bed, bare as the day she was born, and went to the bathroom to get ready for the day.
Dante stretched out of the bed and got himself out of the bed. Vaggie saw him and quickly shielded her eye from his naked form. "Do you mind? It was bad enough that I accidentally kissed you."
Dante used the bed sheets to cover himself like a toga. The Son of Sparda took his coat and felt the box with the ring still inside of it. "Hey, Vags. Mind if I ask you something personal?"
"What?" Vaggie asked him with a tone with some annoyance in it.
"I need to ask you something," Dante told the moth demoness. "More like I need to show you something," he said as Dante pulled the box out of his coat and showed her what was inside.
Vaggie's eyes widen to the size of a dinner plate. As she saw the ring that was inside the box. "How did you-"
"Your mother-in-law. This is what Eva wanted, but I need your permission first," Dante told her. "Also, I'm conflicted about something as well."
"You? Conflicted? Never thought I would see the day," Vaggie said as she crossed her arms and had a curious look.
"I want to be with Charlie and the kids, but I also feel like Earth needs me in case someone like Mundus or Vergil attacks again," he told her.
Vaggie saw why he was conflicted, Sparda was on Earth protecting humans before Dante pretty much took up that role. In his last major fight, he faced his brother from destroying the world from the forbidden tree that was planted. He saw Charlie for the first time in 7 years and he found out he's also a father. "That's… I'm not gonna lie, that is a hard decision to make. Stay here in Hell and be a decent husband and dad, or go back to Earth without knowing a decent way to come back."
"I'll let you calling me a decent husband and dad slide," he dryly remarked. "But you see my dilemma?"
"Yeah," Vaggie said to the Demon Hunter. He cared for Charlie, Michael, and Eva. But his duties as protecting Earth were something else. "Well, how did Sparda deal with it? I mean, he was there for you guys, right? Going to events, helping you and your brother out. I mean, yeah, Vergil is a piece of shit. No offense."
"None taken he is one," Dante chuckled.
"But what was your dad like at home," Vaggie asked, getting back on topic.
Dante thought about how Sparda was there for him and Vergil. He also remembered Sparda did love their mother very much. He would usually go out to face demons that threaten the world, but he did spend time with him and Vergil. And Dante spent every day with his kids since meeting them and he wanted what was best for the two. "So, I have your approval?"
Vaggie smirks at the Demon Hunter. "Yeah. But that doesn't mean you and Charlie get to hog the bed all night, I'm still her wife and stepped up as the second mom."
"Guess I'll just have to step up my game," he playfully countered.
After hearing the shower turn off, Charlie wrapped a towel around herself and walked out of the shower seeing Vaggie and Dante facing one another. "I hope you two weren't fighting while I was in the shower."
"Nope. Just having a little discussion," Dante assured her. He couldn't tell her about the proposal yet, so he had to come up with something. "I was just asking Vaggie if there was any place you wanted to go to."
"Hmmm….. Nothing that comes off of my head at this moment," Charlie said as she dried herself. "But I was thinking that maybe we could do some trust exercises today. What do you think," she asked them both as she put on her clothes.
"Sounds like a good idea, babe," Dante told her. "Come up with a list of things to do while I take my shower," he said as he got out of bed and headed for the bathroom.
After Dante, Charlie, and Vaggie were freshened up, they met the others for breakfast. "Morning kids. Sleep well?"
"Yes, Dad," Michael said as he had bacon and toast on his plate with pancakes. The young Prince of Hell was wearing the jacket Dante gave him. He had the sword and shield by his side.
Eva was wearing her pink jacket as well, along with her rapier by her side. "Daddy, can I ask you something?"
"Sure thing, Pumpkin. What's on your mind?" Dante asked as he took a seat by his kids.
"Why were you giving Mommy a massage last night?" she asked and the entire table froze.
"A massage? What makes you think I was giving your mother a massage," Dante asked his daughter.
"Well…"
Last night
Eva gave a small yawn as she left the bathroom. But as she was returning to bed, she heard something. Curious she got closer to the source of the noise coming from her mother's bedroom.
"Ah~... Oh Fuck~... Dante~ Ah~ …..Oh right there…..AH!~ Dante that feels so good!~ Oh right there, right there~ Fuck, fuck, fuck, FUCCCKKKKK!~" Charlie moaned and screamed.
Everyone at the table was looking at the Princess of Hell as she hid her face in embarrassment, ashamed of the fact her daughter heard her sexual moans last night. Angel Dust and a few other demons who were former porn stars smirked and gave a raised brow towards Charlie and Dante. Others were surprised by the Princess of Hell having a little bit of a wild side, but Husk and a few others didn't care and continued doing their daily duties or returned to their breakfast.
Dante was partially thankful for his daughter's innocence. Playing along, he came up with a good excuse. "Well, Eva… She may not show it, but your mother gets exhausted from time to time and I wanted to give her a nighttime massage. It helps her get to sleep."
"Why did she say fuck a lot," Eva asked.
"Language," Dante, Charlie, and Vaggie said in unison.
"But-"
"I know, I used a bad word. And I'm sorry you heard that. And the reason why I said that word many times is because your father's massage was really good," Charlie told her. She hates lying to her daughter but this was the best way to tell her until she's older and starts developing hormones.
Angel Dust gave four thumbs up as he silently congratulated Charlie on her subtlety. He might have been a porn star and is still one of the most promiscuous tenants of the hotel, but he still knew where to draw the line when kids were involved.
"Are we going to train with our new swords," Michael asked his father and Uncle.
"Indeed. It's important to teach you the basics and make sure you keep up your skills," Vergil said to his nephew. The Son of Sparda got up from his seat and soon left the room with Dante and the kids. But before they could start training, a knock was heard on the door. Vergil went and opened the door to the front of the building and saw that no one was there. He looked around to see if anyone was around, but all he could see was an oddly-shaped package wrapped up next to the door. "What's this," he asked as he brought in the box.
Dante helped bring the box in as it was wrapped up like a present. "Could be something for the twins. A late birthday present?"
"It says 'To Eva,'" Vergil said as he read the label. "I don't see an address or anything."
"Yay! Late birthday present," Eva cheered as she ran up to the gift and was about to open it, but both her father and her uncle stopped her.
"Sweetheart, as much as I love to see you excited, your Uncle and I are a little concerned. It's a gift that showed up at the door, addressed to you with no name or return address," the Demon Hunter told his daughter.
"Well… can I open it while you, Uncle Vergil, and everyone else watch out for anything bad," Eva asked.
Sighing, Dante allowed her to proceed but both the brothers had their swords at the ready. Thinking that something was up, Husk prepared his cards while Angel and Pentious had their guns ready.
After Eva tore away at the paper with pretty quick speed, the package was revealed to be a large dollhouse. "Wow, look at the size of this dollhouse," Eva smiled excitedly as she opened it up more. "It even has dolls in it!"
Charlie and the others all looked to see a variety of dolls of all shapes and sizes in the dollhouse. "I don't like this," Vergil said as he was suspicious of the surprise gift being dropped off.
"You're not the only one," Dante agreed with his twin as he didn't like the fact that it had no address. He wanted to do some investigating but decided to focus on training Eva and Michael. "You can play with your dolls when we get back from training, sweetheart."
"I'll just bring your new dollhouse to your room," Charlie told her as she and Vaggie lifted the huge playset and went up into Eva's bedroom. While the children of Sparda went out to begin training, Charlie and Vaggie placed the new toy set in the middle of Eva's room. "Okay, that takes care of that. Now, let's get to the trust exercises," she said aloud as she went downstairs with Vaggie following after her. As the mothers went downstairs, one of the dolls that was resting against the window of the toy house fell over. As it did, a strange clicking sounded off inside the dollhouse.
"Well, that was a workout," Dante said as Virgil and the twins approached the hotel after training. "Great job, kids. You're quick studies. Someday, you two will surpass me and your Uncle."
"What about Grandpa?" Michael asked.
"If you mean your Grandpa Sparda? Well, I did manage to kill Mundus and Argosax. So yeah, I think you will surpass him," Dante said to them both.
"What about Grandpa Lucifer?" Eve added to her brother's question.
"I can't say. But I'm not gonna pick a fight with your grandpa Luci," Dante told the kids as he opened the door. As the four of them entered, many of the guests were yelling and screaming at one another. Two dog sinners were growling and ready to snap at each other. Angel Dust and Ser Pentious were arguing, a Minotaur-like demon with huge muscles was holding back a squid-looking demon that wanted to crush its tentacles around a shark. Nifty was zooming around the hotel in a cleaning frenzy in case anyone was dripping blood or lost a tooth.
Both the Sons of Sparda and the kids saw that Charlie was trying to keep everyone under control, but was failing at it. Vaggie was doing the same thing but she was being a bit more aggressive about the situation.
"Why is everyone fighting all of a sudden," Michael asked in general as he saw that some of the arguments started to get a little heated.
"I don't know, but I know how to handle it," Dante told his son as he took out one of his twin pistols and shot into the sky outside. This made everyone in the hotel jump and stop fighting among themselves. "Alright, that got everyone's attention. Now, what is going on here?"
"Dante, first off, thank you for getting everyone's attention. Secondly, Vaggie and I were doing some trust exercises to help get things moving along with the rehabilitation. But… things got a little… out of hand," Charlie told her boyfriend.
"Yeah, this guy decided to put a pin in my butt when I was caught Husk," Angel Dust pointed his thumb towards Sir Pentious.
"I told you, I did no such thing," Pentious told the former porn star.
"Bullshit," Angel yells.
"That's enough, you two," Vaggie told them. "That goes for everyone in this room."
"Tell that to this mutt," a Doberman hellhound pointed to one that resembled a Great Dane.
"You got a problem with me, fleabag?" The Great Dane growled and showed his teeth, getting in front of the Doberman.
"Don't make me shoot you two, because I will do it," Dante warned the two.
"It seems that there has been some sabotage going around. The spider was subjected to a childish prank and accused the snake," Vergil said with an icy cold stare.
"We have namessss, you know," Sir Pentious said as he hissed at the older twin.
Vergil ignored Pentious comment and stared at the Hellhounds. "And what were you two mutts fighting about?"
"This asshole yanked at my tail," the Doberman said, pointing to the Great Dane.
"Only because you put this thing up my ass," the Great Dane growled as he showed the buttplug. Charlie's immediate action was to cover the eyes of her children.
"Wait a minute, that's mine!" Angel Dust said as he recognized the toy. "Where the fuck did you even get that?! Did you sick fucks go to my room?!"
"Gross! I would never," the Doberman said as he looked grossed out.
"This jerk decided to do this," the shark said as he had a long cut across his back.
"I told you I did not! I don't have anything on me that long!?" said an octopus-headed sinner.
"Those nails look nice and pointy," the shark said, getting in his face again. Before they could lunge at each other, the Minotaur separated them again.
"Will you two knock it off? You're making things worse," the Minotaur sinner told them both.
"There's clearly something going on here," Vergil said as he looked around the lobby. "Someone or something messing with everyone else, pinning the blame on innocent parties."
"I had that same feeling. Apparently whoever or whatever is behind this wants to create this chaos. I have my suspicions, but I need more evidence," Dante said as he walked up the stairs to his, Charlie's, and Vaggies' room. When he got there, he saw KeeKee was hissing at the door, not taking her eye away from it. Dante noticed this and picked up the one-eyed cat. "You sense something, girl?"
KeeKee's eye didn't leave the door as her fur stood on end, still hissing in the direction of where she was looking. Without wasting much time, Dante put KeeKee down and took out one of his twin pistols. He then kicked the door off his hinges, which triggered a booby trap as kitchen knives came flying toward him. Dante didn't bother dodging as about a dozen knives impaled him while the rest created an outline of his body against the wall.
"Saw that coming somehow," Dante said as he pulled out all the knives and dropped them on the floor. After he got the last one out of his shoulder, KeeKee pounced at something in the corner of the room. The demonic cat let out a small hiss as she scratched whatever she caught. Dante approached her to get a better look at what Charlie's cat and the magic key to the hotel caught. Turns out, it was one of the dolls from Eva's new dollhouse. It looked like its face was cracked from where he kicked the door in and had a knife in its right hand. "I knew it," he said aloud before the doll jumped him and cut at his cheek. With one of his pistols still in his hand, Dante shot the doll as it got destroyed.
Running of footsteps was heard as Charlie, Vaggie, the kids, Virgil, and many others entered the room. "What happened," Charlie asked as she noticed the knives on the wall and one of Eva's dolls broken.
"My dolly," Eva said, surprised that one of her dolls was broken and had some sort of weapon on it.
"Sorry, pumpkin. Looks like your dolls are a problem. I think we should get you a new collection later," Dante said as he put away his pistol and got his Devil Sword Dante ready. "Seems like we found our little problem. Whoever sent those dolls meant to kill or sabotage us."
"Whoever it issss, they've got quite the technical mind," Pentious noted as he examined the dolls and saw that they weren't sinners or even hell-born demons. "The dollsssss are a type of mechanical creation that have very complex machinery on the inside."
"Wait, so those dolls are little robots?" the Minotaur asked.
"Seems likely. And I know of one organization that was able to make man-made demons," Dante said as he was going to tell them who it was but a wail came from a few doors down. Everyone rushed out of the room and saw that one of Pentious's Egg Bois was stabbed, getting yolk all over the carpet.
"Oh my god! They killed Kenny!" Frank said.
"Those bastards," one of the other Egg Bois said.
"We have names? Huh," asked another Egg Boi.
"They'll pay for killing one of my Egg Bois," Pentious exclaimed as he took out his ray gun.
"Well, looks like you kids get to use your training sooner than I thought," Dante told the twins. Michael and Eva grinned as they got their weapons out.
"Okay, people. There is no better way to form a bond than to watch each other's back on the battlefield," Vaggie said strictly. "Split up into groups of 2-4 and eliminate these defective toys. The main objective is to defend this hotel and trust in your group. Make sure that nobody dies in this hotel. Vamanos!"
After Vaggie gave the order, several demons split off into groups and went to search the hotel. Vaggie and Charlie soon went off.
"Not going with your soon-to-be wife?" Vergil asked his younger brother.
"Nah, I'm not too worried, Vaggie's got her back. Besides, I want to see firsthand what the kids are capable of," Dante told his older twin as he followed Michael and Eva through the hotel. The four of them made their way through as the dolls attacked guests from the hotel. Some were cutting the guests in their rooms, some stabbed them in the guts, and others just slit their throats or behead them. "Luckily, it's not a Devil Arm or a holy weapon. Otherwise, these Sinners would be truly dead. Okay, kids. Show me and your uncle what you learned."
Both Eva and Michael attacked with their swords as the Sons of Sparda watched them in action. Micheal decapitated two of the dolls with Revolution and blocked the knife attack with Riot. He pushed them off him with his shield and cut their bodies in half.
Eva thrust her weapon forward and stabbed at the dolls with Faith. She parried the doll's knives and dodged them with ease as she swiped and stabbed them in the head or the chest, destroying as many as she could.
"You're doing great, kids. Keep up the good work," Dante said as he watched his kids fight the dolls like a dad watching them play a soccer game.
"You're going to let them fight this battle by themselves," Vergil asked his younger brother as he watched closely.
"What's the point of training if they don't get to fight something themselves," Dante said watching Michael and Eva destroy the dolls that were attacking the guests. "Besides, they can handle a few living toys," he said as he saw a doll come after him and cut it in half down the middle.
Michael and Eva were working alongside one another when two dolls came from nowhere and stabbed them in the arm with syringes, injecting them with something. "Ow!" they both yelped before slicing the dolls with their weapons.
"Focus, you two. You're doing great, but watch out for blindspots," Dante advised as Vergil sliced a doll as it got close to him.
"They seem to be endless, Dante," Vergil said as he saw that there were more dolls than ordinary.
"There's so many. Way more than there should be," Dante said as he noticed more doll parts than he remembered in the doll house. "I think I know where the source of these things is," he said as he saw Michael and Eva take down the last doll. "Come on, we have to go to Eva's room."
"Why my room," Eva asked tilting her head in a confused manner.
"Because dummy, that's where the doll house is," Michael told her.
"You're the dummy," Eva pouts with her cheeks puffed up. The four of them hurried to Eva's room where they saw an army of dolls. The doll house kept making whirring and clanking noises as new dolls were being made every few seconds, making it look like a factory churning out monsters for stop-motion animation.
"I knew it," Dante, Vergil, Michael, and Eva said in unison as they hacked and slashed the dolls that attacked them. The four of them wasted no time as they stabbed, sliced, diced, slashed, and evaded the legion of dolls. Some of the dolls did give them cuts and some injected them with needles, taking some blood when they did, but the four kin of Sparda destroyed them. In response, the windows on a wall of the doll house turned red as if they were eyes going bloodshot with anger. Steam hissed from the playset before more doll parts came out, then started clumping together like some type of chimera. The doll that formed from all the pieces congregating together was an abomination of melting flesh-like plastic that surrounded the dollhouse to form a sort of armor or body. The doll monster had several sets of arms, three heads with one of them fully bald and only one eye in its socket, and the legs were replaced with a melted pile of the same flesh-like plastic. The three heads all glared at the twins before a multitude of weapons emerged from the mouths in their hands.
"You're ugly as fuck," Michael said while looking at the grotesque doll beast.
"I'll let that one slide," Dante told him as he agreed with his son that the doll amalgamation was an ugly sight. The torso of the abomination opened up to reveal a mouth that vomited molten fleshy plastic, which began to reform into a new army of regular-sized dolls that charged past the twins and toward the Sons of Sparda. "Looks like this thing's being smart," Dante said as he pulled out his guns and started firing at the plastic legion. "Remember what we taught you."
Both Michael and Eva looked at the disfigured monstrosity that stood before them. "Ready to kick some ass, sis?" Michael asked as he had a tight grip on Revolution.
"I'm sick of dolls now after today," Eva remarked as she took a stance, pointing Faith at the disfigured being of plastic.
Both of the Morningstar twins attacked the abomination of a doll that tried to strike at them. Michael blocked an axe with Riot and destroyed the weapon. The doll attacked him once again with a knife but the young Prince of Hell repeated the process of block and attack.
Eva meanwhile, parried and dodged saw swings and evaded the melted plastic that it threw up on the floor. The young Princess of Hell stabbed at its arms and its torso. As she got close to one of its faces, she stabbed it in the eye as it screeched in pain. "Mikey! Aim for its heads. It's their weak spot," Eva shouted to her brother as she evaded an attack.
"Thanks," Michael smirked as he cut off one of its arms before rushing towards it. Before the doll could react, the Son of Dante brought his shield to his back and two-handed his sword before he jumped into the air and decapitated one of its three heads. The doll gave a hideous screeching sound as one of its heads got severed from its body. With one of its heads no longer functioning, some of the dolls collapsed and lay motionless. Eva wasted no time on the abomination and stabbed at its second head. The doll screamed bloody murder as its head became limb and only one remained. "Ready, sis?"
"You know it, bro," Eva said as the siblings prepared to finish the fight. Dante saw this and tossed his twin pistols towards them.
The two jumped in the air and grabbed the pistols. Michael grabbed Ebony while Eva caught Ivory. The twins twirled the guns in their hands before handling the safeties, then said their father's favorite one-liner. "Jackpot," they shouted in unison as they fired the twin pistols at the final head. The bullets flew through the air and pierced right through the eye of the doll abomination. When the monster fell limp, the dollhouse inside fell to the ground and shattered to pieces, making the dolls all around the hotel fall limp like puppet strings were cut suddenly.
Dante and Vergil saw the dolls fall on the floor, motionless before they began to melt. Dante made sure to kick one of the dolls to make sure that it wouldn't attack again. He then turned to his kids and gave them a smirk. "Good job on your first major demon hunt, kids. You did great."
"I must say that you didn't disappoint," Vergil stated.
"I'll take it as a compliment, Uncle," Michael said as he handed Ebony back to his dad.
"Here you go, Daddy," Eva said as she handed Ivory back.
"Thanks," the Demon Hunter said as he twirled the guns in his hands and placed them in their holsters. "Now, let's go and find your moms."
"Okay," Michael said as he and his sister walked alongside his dad and uncle. "Since we beat a living abomination, does that mean me and Eva can go on your missions?"
Dante chuckled as he patted his son's head. "Wait until you're older. Besides, your mother would kill me If I did that now. Or worse."
"Can we tell her about what happened," Eva asked.
"Might as well," Dante said as they headed through the halls of the hotel. As they did, nobody noticed a lack of the syringes that were used as weapons in the carnage of the battlefield.
"Wait, you two did what now," Charlie asked as they met up with the rest of the group.
"We killed a lot of dolls and destroyed the dollhouse when it turned into some kind of monster," Michael told his mother.
"And you didn't help them," Vaggie asked as she looked them with a narrow eye towards the Sons of Sparda.
"Vags, if they were in any danger, I would step in no matter what. But I didn't because this was their big fight. I don't want to take something like that away from them. That and there was a swarm of dolls keeping me and Vergil from helping immediately," Dante told Latina, as well as the Princess of Hell.
Charlie looked skeptical at first, but ultimately she was glad they were both safe with little to no injuries. "Alright. I'm just glad they are okay. And as ironic as this seems, those dolls attacking the hotel brought everyone closer," she said as the group was at one another throats, now laughing alongside each other.
"Man, I thought you were gonna piss yourself when that doll nearly cut ya," Angel Dust laughed.
"Haha, yes… yes… let's not talk about that ever again," Ser Pentious said looking deadpan in the face.
"I loved it," Niffty said as she laughed. Her laughter began to become more sinister, creeping out the others.
"All in all, it was a good day's work," Charlie said aloud. "We should keep doing more trust exercises. Maybe you should join in Vergil."
"I rather not," Vergil said as he ascended the stairs to his room. As he neared his room, his thoughts were on one thing, who sent a deadly package to his niece, and on what purpose?
In an unknown location in the Pride Ring, Agnus was smiling to himself as he held up a collection of vials. "Finally, revenge will be mine!"
Suddenly, a call was made and the scientist answered the call via video conference. "Agnus! You're stupid dolls were utterly useless!"
"My plan wasn't to kill the Sparda with simple dolls. They were more of a d-d-d-d-d-disraction," Agnus told the being. "My real goal was to collect DNA from the two Spardas and the Grandchildren of the Devil," he said holding out the vials of blood in front of the being. "With this, I'll be able to make a powerful being!"
The being from the video stood in silence as he was impressed by the scientist's efforts. "Looks like you gained a little respect for me, Agnus. I look forward to what you create."
"Thank you," Agnus said. "I will not disappoint you, Lord Von Eldritch."
Cliffhanger! Man that was a long wait. I really had to be creative on this one. I figured let the kids have a fight scene for once. They do have to take some part since they are Spardas. I want to thank WaterDragonMaverick as always for beta reading, editing and suggestions. For the doll soldiers summoned by the doll house, they can look like any sort of doll you would imagine personally, like Chucky the dolls from the first Tales From The Hood movie, Annabelle, or even evil Barbies if you wanted. The Doll Abomination was inspired by the Marauder from the Evil Dead Rises. And yes, for those of you that guest it was Von Eldritch, you are right, have a cookie. And as always, follow, favor and review. Until next time, See you in Hell!
