The young women were walking down the sidewalk chit chatting about what they had bought or saw, Angel had planned to get payback at someone for the whole smacking of her butt. Though with each step she took her mind started to wonder if it really was such a good idea now? "Maybe its too low of a cut..." Her mind reeled wondering if this could backfire on her instead, sighing to allow her self a calm mind when a motorcycle roared to life next to her. "Want a ride?" Lady asked from sitting on a bike and a grin playing on her lips, "Thank you but I'll just walk the rest of the way, Devil May Cry is just down the street and around the corner." Angel spoke while she jabbed her thumb to point the way to the shop.

"Alright but here, take this at least." Trish spoke up from next to Angel while pulling a small black long round shape from her back pocket, "Its a phone with both mine and Lady's numbers programmed into it, just in case you are in trouble or just need someone to talk to." Trish said in a motherly voice causing Angel to smile kindly thanking the gods above or that someone thought she could use this phone. Giving a wave watching both women ride off down the street before sticking to the side walk, it seem like a nice warm day while Angel walked thus enjoying a minute of time to her self.

"Your being followed." A low voice spoke sounded as if it was right in her ear, a quick spin showed no one around her much less in the same vicinity as her. "I must be hearing things." She muttered giving a sigh continuing down the street again. "Wow you are an idiot." A voice spoke again making Angel's eyes widen knowing this time she heard the voice yet she looked around not seeing anyone talking to her, casting her eyes upon a near by store window almost erupted a scream from her throat.

Staring back at her was the demon from before, the one she saw in the mirror, "What?! But how?!" Angel thought looking her self over to confirm she was still the same when she last saw her self in a mirror. "I am in your mind dip shit and if I were you, I would start walking to back to your boyfriend.....that is unless you want to die here and now." It spoke again making Angel growl lowly though from the corner of her eye, she could see a dark shadow darting around and bit her lip slowly straightening her self up shuffling her feet forward.

"Geez if I didn't know any better you act just like my sister.....so what are you here for?" Angel thought appearing calm on the outside but her insides were a mess, she is hearing a voice along with being followed, so much for an easy day of shopping.

"Think of it this way.....you died...then I died and sorry kinda wanna stay alive thanks." The voice said allowing Angel to imagine what this voice looked like aside from just the demon in the mirror, turning the corner quickly seeing the alley way leading to the shop and her hopes rising but sadly they were crushed just as quick. Watching a dark shadow landing in front of her and bright light shone from its hands, "Shit I can't see." Angel growled moving her hand up to try and block the light. "Don't just stand there! Jump!" Her demon-side voice hollered making Angel jump and what a jump it was!

"Whoa this is really high!" Angel whimpered seeing she had easily cleared to a third level house, looking down watching closely that the shadow raced forward pulling two long silver blades.

"Shit!" Angel yelped ducking her head back as the shadow threw one of the blades thus just missing her head, blinking when a few strands of hair floated free from her scalp, "Why you!!" Angel growled pulling her gun out taking aim at the shadow, sadly with each shot was a miss. It seemed as the shadow was merely dancing to avoid getting shot ending with Angel getting more pissed by the minute, "Calm down! Your just playing into its hands!" The demon voice spoke leaving her more ticked off but she knew her demon side was right.....for once so far.

"He he he.....slice and dice.....wanna taste your blood...." A voice spoke out loud drawing Angels attention to the shadow, biting her lip fearing that she may be in trouble for once as she landed. Watching the shadow when taking a chance of running pass it, sadly her path was blocked by a long blade striking the ground in front of her. Tossing her head to the side in time to watch a foot collide with her stomach and sent flying into a near by wall, "Gonna feel that later." Angel muttered coughing up some blood slowly pulling her self from the now dented wall.

"Your going to get your self killed, just let me tak-" Her inner demon spoke but cut its self short when Angel looked up with a glare, "I told you before....your never gonna to take me over again....I will...fight...and win..." Angel growled holding her stomach pushing her self forward slowly then started running at the shadow figure. "He he he yes....Must taste!" The shadow laughed from its throat and Angel sent a punch to its face but gasped when it went right threw, "My turn." A low voice spoke right in to her ear sending a creepy shiver threw her body.

Throwing her eyes around when she lost sight of the shadow only letting a high pitch yelp out when cold metal chains wrapped around her with lighting speed, "Damn it! I can't move!" Angel thought trying to wiggle free from them. "Must taste! Ha ha ha I must taste your wonderful blood!" A loud voice rang around the area then felt her self floating up, whimpering feeling being pulled or maybe sent crashing into the ground before being sent into the side of a near by dumpster.

Coughing up more blood along with feeling some dripping down the side of her face making her close her left eye, pushing her self up best she could watching the shadow come close to her finally showing its face or maybe it was a mask at this point. It was hard to tell with only having one eye open and everything was blurry.

"Your a pig." She spat while spitting at the face which hit its mark and left a small trail of spat blood rolling down its face, smirking thinking she made a smart move but learned quickly when a searing hot stinging pain emitted from her right upper thigh. A loud piercing scream ripped from her throat that would make anyone cringe from hearing it, glancing down allowed her to see a long sharp blade sticking straight up from her thigh.

"A wonderful scream too.....he he he....why not scream for him.....you might be save then....." The shadow spoke in a low voice having an evil smirk playing on his lips, "As if I ever would do that." Angel growled even though she was silently praying for him to appear to save the day like he had last time. Feeling her self being lifted then slammed into a wall and her arms being pulled above her head, whimpering from the pain coursing threw out her body. How was she going to get out of this now? Had her luck finally run out?

Watching the shadow come awful close to her chest holding a small dagger in its hand, fighting a cry when it easily ripped her shirt up the middle. Closing her eye not wanting to see what this sick twisted minded thing was going to do and a loud gunshot echoed around them, "If I were you....I would run while you still have time." A low male voice growled loudly causing Angel to throw her eyes open turning her head seeing Dante standing there. Hatred burned in his blue eyes that always seem to be happy and full of mischief, now they only held a thirst for blood and the death of this new enemy.

Opening her mouth to call out to him, sadly that was not the case but instead a small scream left her mouth. Looking down seeing the shadow had used the small dagger to give a light cut but deep enough to allow blood to coat the dagger across her chest, "Give me a good reason....hehehe....oh you care for her.....ha ha ha....how stupid...." The shadow bellowed with its bright yellow eyes shooting between Dante and Angel.

"But how could you not.....this....blood....its.....its....so......delicious!" The shadow spoke allowing its tongue to steadily drag across the blood coated dagger, Dante casted his eyes to Angel who whimpered looking away then turned his eyes back to the shadow showing a glare who would send the bravest running. Reaching up to his black guitar case that unzipped with ease and instead of a guitar, a huge sword appeared drawing Angel's eyes to it.

"That's what he has had hiding in there this whole time?" She thought wondering if it would be enough to beat this new demon, in a blink of an eye both men rushed at each other, leaving only blurs to where they were.

Sounds of metal clinking flowed threw out the area than a few spot of bright red of blood splatter the wall next to her, shivering feeling the cool wind blow across her expose skin. Taking a deep breath when Dante appeared in the middle of alley staring right at her and felt like he was looking right threw her, wondering if she should call out to him yet became trapped in her throat when he threw his sword right at her.

Maybe more like right next to her thus piercing the head of the shadow demon, who had sunk his way towards her from above and aiming a fair sized blade for her head. Watching it all turned to dust including the chains holding her up, earning a yelp as she free fell towards the ground yet never hitting. "Shhh its okay.....I got ya...." A soft voice spoke while a pair of strong arms pulled her close, steadily moving her eyes up to met his shining blue ones. "Dante....I.....just..." She muttered trying to form a sentence, "Its alright....I am just glad I made it in time and that your safe." He spoke softly thus wrapping his red trench coat around her shoulders and pulling it close on her front side.

Slowly smiling feeling her heart swell from his kind actions and without thinking leaned up gently pressing her lips to his right cheek muttering a soft thank you in his ear, Dante lifted his hand wiping some of the blood from her face and open his mouth to speak or maybe it was to ask something. All of that was cut short when a strong woman's voice cut threw the air or maybe it was more like screaming, being easy to tell though what the woman was calling out for.....but in this case it was one word.....or more of one name.....and that name was Angel.
