The demon hunters landed hard onto the ground.

"Damn…. They're a lot stronger than before," remarked the young half-demon, his snow white hair falling in front of his icy blue eyes. "How are we gonna beat them?"

The creature next to him whimpered as if it was saying, I'm not sure... Yet, it stood up and went into a defensive position, growling as its' blinding white fur was glowing majestically with the crimson markings bleeding through it, and the Divine Instrument on its back ready to be wielded once again. But we're going to try with everything we've got!

The young man also stood up, smirking at their adversaries. "Well, this is going to be one hell of a party!" And they charged at their opponents for one last battle.


"Damn jukebox! I need to buy a new one," commented the nineteen-year-old when he looked over his jukebox as he wanted to play his music. It hasn't been working properly since after the Temen-ni-gru incident a few months back. "Ugh. Whatever." He left it alone and went back to his desk where a box filled with half-eaten pizza slices waited. He picked up a slice as he also went for his signature twins guns, his huge sword, and his red, leather coat. The right sleeve was torn off and he hadn't gone to get tailored due to him being in consistent debt. It's surprisingly amazing how his business survived for so long in the following years to come. As he finished the slice of pizza and walked towards the door, a knock came through, followed by a young woman who was probably the same age as him.

"Hey, Dante! Can I come in?" she asked, though she was already halfway through the door's opening. "How's business?"

"Why do you care? And what do you want, Lady?" Dante was totally not in the mood for Lady's mission tips or asking him her usual question, "Where's my cut?"

"What? I can't make small talk?"

"With you? No."

"Okay, fine. Be that way, but I just wanted to tell you that there's something wandering around outside your office. Thought you might want to check it out," she said and pointed at the "something" that was supposedly outside. Then she left the building as fast as she came by. "Well, I've got work to do. See you later." Lady hopped onto her bike, her missile launcher Kalina Ann propped against her back, and drove off.

"Hmph, figures. And what the hell is she talking about? I don't see anything." He looked around as far as his vision could let him. Nothing...nothing but a bright white light in a near alleyway. Wait, what? he thought. Dante put on his coat and went for the light. What could be waiting for him there…?
