I do not own Devil May Cry or any of the characters.

New Target

The entire gang sat in Devil May Cry HQ bored as hell. They hadn't had a single call, with or without the password for days. The gang now officially meant Trish, Dante, Nero, and Kyrie for moral support and because Nero said so. Dante still kept in touch with Lady and Lucia, both of which he had had a fling with, something Trish was insanely jealous over despite not dating Dante. In fact, with the exception of Kyrie, Trish was the one girl Dante talked to that he hadn't had a fling with. Nero couldn't help but smirk at that fact.

"So, Nero," Dante began obviously going to ask about Nero and Kyrie's relationship.

As if a gift from God, the phone rang, interrupting Dante. Dante had upgraded his phone to something with buttons rather than a wheel to dial with, thank God, so Nero could see t was no one they knew.

"Devil May Cry," Nero answered setting his feet on the desk and doing his best Dante impression before paling as his grin faded. "Wait, slow down, how many? Hold on, I'm putting you on speaker phone so the boss can hear this."

Nero switched it over and asked the caller to repeat themselves.

"I live just a few hours south of Chicago so I know demons would seem normal as that city is infested, but I doubt this is normal!" the caller said clearly panicking.

"We can't help if we don't know what it is," Dante stated. "What's going on?"

"I don't know!" the caller snapped. "I woke up this morning and my house had been invaded by grim reapers!"

"Describe them," Dante sighed.

"Most as skeletons in tattered black robes with scythes but at least a third are massive with cloaks made out of darkness and cow skulls for heads. Cow skulls with glowing red horns," The caller stated.

"What are they doing?" Dante questioned suddenly interested. "And how many."

"At least a thousand total and last I knew most were all bowing in front of a hill and chanting," the caller stated.

"Is there anything on the hill?" Dante questioned.

"Just a second," the caller said before the line went silent. "Yes, there's a sword, looks like a katana with a white grip. And a girl on a cross."

"What does she look like?" Dante questioned while looking to Nero for an explanation about the sword.

"White jacket and extremely short shorts, short green air, I think, actually she's pretty hot," the caller stated and Dante so wished it had been a girl's voice instead of a man's. "It looks like there's a bazooka or something on the ground beside her."

"Oh God," Dante whispered. "Alright. Address."

While Kyrie wrote down the address, Nero, Dante, and Trish all walked to the back of the shop where his weapons were. Dante picked up Rebellion putting it in ts rightful place on his back and looked to Trish.

"Ready?" Dante asked.

"Maybe we should go a little better prepared than normal," Trish suggested.

"I'm not taking Sparda," Dante stated.

"No no," Trish grinned shaking her head. "Sparda's mine. But I'm also taking Ifrit."

"Which leaves Gilgamesh and Beowolf," Dante stated. "Nero has his Devil Bringer so I'll take Gilgamesh, it's stronger."

"Who are we going after?" Nero questioned. "Last I checked, that katana you gave me fused with my Devil Bringer."

"It's my brother," Dante stated. "Vergil. Your father, we suspect."

"My...father?" Nero questioned. "Uncle Dante? I don't think so."

"Guys," Trish interrupted. "As much as I hat to say it, if we're fighting an army and your brother, we'll need Lucia."

"That's true," Dante nodded. "Nero, you're gong to have to bring Kyrie. This place tends to be destroyed while we're gone once in a while. It's overdue."

Just then, the front door crashed open and Dante grabbed Pandora and ran out with the others to find a Death Scythe holding Lucia by the throat and ready to swing its scythe.

"Do it!" Lucia dared.

Suddenly, Nero held his Devil Bringer out and the phantom hand shot out and caught the Death Scythe by the skull and crushed it, destroying it.

"So you're Nero," Lucia smirked. "Nice arm."

"Thanks," Nero smirked. "We leaving now Dante?"

"Yes," Dante nodded. "Lucia, catch."

Dante tossed Beowolf to her and she put it on then nodded to Dante.

"What are you doing here?" Trish questioned.

"Lady called me," Lucia stated just as much hatred coming from her as from Trish. "She said the dick is back."

"Perfect," Dante sighed. "Come on, we have to go save Lady."

"He's back to Dante," Lucia said as he walked past her.

"Who now?" Nero questioned.

"The Despair Embodied," Dante stated. "This is going to be a very painful mission."
