A/N: I'm really sorry for not posting another chapter for this story guys. But before you start reading please read this.

When I read a review I only see "Wow this awesome" or "This is amazing" etc. Don't get me wrong I like praise. However, if that's all you're going to type for the review then I won't know what's wrong with the story or what's even "awesome" about it in the first place. I've encountered this countless of times with the first version of XIII. Because I didn't know what was wrong with the story I continuously made the same mistakes. It wasn't until I read two reviews that completely destroyed XIII that I began to understand what my flaws were. Though they were rude (Which I don't mind of course) I enjoyed reading them because they pointed out my flaws. As a writer it's important to me that I understand what I'm doing right and wrong.

So please any future reviewer of my stories feel free to point out my mistakes. I'll understand and enjoy the criticism because in the end it'll make me a better writer.

Now with that out of the way please enjoy the next chapter of Devil Arm… also should I change the title to Grimm Arm instead?


Vergil Angelo, now Vergil Taurus, is a legend among the hunter association. He is famous for his skill with the katana, specifically with the Iaido style. His aura reserves are rumored to be higher than three S-class huntsman put together. He's also adored by every huntress across remnant.

Yes Vergil Taurus is truly a legend.

"Why do they KEEP CRYING!?" The so called legend exclaimed with young Adam in his arms.

"That's what babies do dear." Adette said calmly, with Jaune in her arms.

Adette was truly a beautiful woman. Her figure was something that only a goddess could possess. The young bull Faunus had long brown hair that seemed to glow when under the moon. Her brown eyes that held love were cast down on Jaune. Then there were her breasts, in Vergil's opinion they were the perfect size, but he would never admit to have had such thoughts.

While Adette had finally calmed Jaune, the angered father still struggled with his own son. She knew that Vergil loved Adam, but the man only knew how to fight. Caring for a child was something that would take time for him to understand and better himself at. She sets her child in all but blood in his carriage and walked to her husband.

"I'll put him to sleep dear."

As Vergil continued to sway his child he glared at his wife. He knew she meant well, but he was Vergil Angelo, the son of Sparda and the strongest man in Rem- "Here we go." Adette said as she took Adam away from him. The moment the young child was in her arms he began to quiet down. "Sleep well, Adam." She placed the now sleeping Adam in his carriage.

Vergil growled, six months of this and he hadn't gotten any better.

"I know you hate not being able to calm the boys. But you just have to give it time."

"What makes you think I'm mad about something so trivial?" Vergil said with a frown. Adette rolled her eyes at how untruthful he was being, but she expected it. The man could never tell the truth when it came to matters such as this.

"Let's just get to bed." Adette said, as she gave Vergil a quick kiss.

The sound of the doorbell stops the parents from entering their bedroom. Vergil and Adette go through the hallway decorated with pictures of the couple. Adette opens the white door and was greeted by "No one?" Adette said with a confused expression.

The couple feels an arm around their necks. "Hey guys how've you been?" An alto voice of a young woman asked playfully.

Vergil sighed, "And what does my young pupil want?" He and Adette look at the playful intruder with annoyed expressions.

"Raven what are you doing here?" Adette asked with a sigh.

The identified Raven removes herself from the married couple showing full view of her appearance.

Raven was a tall beautiful woman. Like her name, her hair was the color of a raven's feathers. She wore a shallow cut black dress. Around her neck were five necklaces with an assortment of red beads. Her arms were covered by a pair of red gauntlets. Around her waist is a red-girdle belt. She had breathtaking red eyes that matched her attire.

With a smile "Sorry for the intrusion, I just wanted to talk with Vergil for a bit." Her smile was now pleading for something. "If you wouldn't mind Adette, could Vergil and I discuss something?"

Though Adette questioned, Raven's sudden arrival she offered a smile and complied. "Of course." She gave Vergil a kiss on the cheek and left the master and student alone.

Raven's smile dropped as she prepared her next set of words. "Sorry for the intrusion, Master. I need help with something."

Vergil had a frown as he looked at his pupil. Raven was a strong and independent woman who never asked for help. She swallowed her own pride just ask for his help with training. So to see this woman want help was a rarity. So with a sigh he gestured for his student to follow him to the living room.

The two entered a spacious room. The walls were a beautiful scarlet and blue. Though it looked awful (In Vergil's opinion) Adette wanted their colors to be on the wall. So Vergil complied. To make matters worse for him, his wife ordered furniture that was the same color which made him want to throw up even more. 'God it's almost as bad as riding a bullhead.' Vergil thought.

Raven sits on a red couch while Vergil is seated on a blue one.

"What brings you to my home at 3:00 in the morning?"

Raven sighed. "I…" Her voice faltered as she began. Vergil noted that whatever caused the woman such strife was definetly a huge burden. "I had to leave Taiyang today."

Vergil simply raised an eyebrow. He wasn't one to show emotion, but he was surprised by Raven's decision. "I love him, Vergil. I really do, which is why I'm going to quit being a huntress to start a family with him." Vergil remembered her words the two years prior. He remembered the two being inseparable. It was obvious that they loved one another. Then there was the child they had together.

"Why?" Vergil questioned.

"It was… necessary." She looked at Vergil with sad eyes. The life he remembered they had was gone. "Vergil, something terrible is approaching Remnant. There is an unbalance that needs to be addressed. More and more Grimm have been appearing as well as new types. It started happening around the time of your brother's death."

The swordsman frowned. It was true, he felt something off. It was familiar presence and he had a feeling he knew who exactly was causing this unbalance.

"Yes, I've felt it too." He eyed Raven with calculating eyes. "But why leave your family?"

Raven sighed as her eyes looked glassy. She wanted to cry but knew she couldn't show such weakness in front of her mentor. "I love my family deeply. I wish I could share the burden, but I have to make sure they aren't involved. It's one thing for Yang to lose a mother. But I don't think I could bear the thought of my daughter not having a mother or father."

The two Iaido users were silent. As Raven was at the verge of tears, Vergil was stoic and did not give any of his emotions away.

"Raven…" Vergil began. "While your bravery should be commended I don't think this is something you should get yourself involved in." He stood. His gaze on the woman in front of him was cold. "Return to your family. Live the life you want."

Raven shook her head "I can make a difference. I plan to investigate the cause of this unbalance." She stood from the couch. "And I plan on correcting it." Despite how depressed she was, she offered a smile. "Besides, you're the one who should enjoy a life with a family. You've been alone for so long. You deserve a break old timer."

Vergil sighed. He knew that Raven wouldn't listen to anything he said. He offered her a rare smile. "So be it. If you intend to get involved then let me inform you of the cause of this unbalance."

Raven nodded and the two sat back down.

As Vergil prepared to speak, Adette walked in with different colored mugs with steam rising from each one. "I brought some tea."

Though Raven didn't expect for Adette's sudden arrival, Vergil seemed unfazed. He took the blue mug offered to him while Raven was given a black mug. The bull Faunus sat next to Vergil with a red mug in her hands.

"I already got the gist of things. So you don't need to explain it to me."

Vergil nodded as Raven prepared to argue, but she stopped and knew that arguing with Adette would be a waste of time.

After Vergil took a sip of his tea "The cause for this unbalance would be my mother, Nyx." He looked at the brown liquid that reflected his face. "It seems the seal father placed on her is starting to break. As the seal continues to break her power will grow."

"So the sudden growth in the Grimm population is her doing?!" Raven asked in horror.

"That would certainly explain it." Adette added. "If I remember correctly, Nyx's influence is what caused the Grimm to revolt against your father in the first place." She looked at Vergil for confirmation. He nodded before he took another sip of the well made tea.

Despite the horrible news Raven began to plan for the years to come. She knew that her main objective would be to search for Nyx. If she could find the location of Vergil's mother then maybe she could defeat the Grimm queen.

"If you plan on defeating her don't bother." Vergil interrupted. "Though she is sealed and weakened you don't have enough power to destroy her. As it is, there are only seven huntsmen who have the strength to destroy her. I am one of those seven." Raven and Adette looked at him with hope. "However, as time goes on she will eventually be too strong for either of us to end her."

Raven sighed in disappointment. Even if she began searching right now it would take her years to find Nyx. By then it would be too late.

"Why not just combine your strength?" Adette suddenly suggested. Vergil growled at the suggestion but she continued. "Alone none of you could defeat her, but surely you could do it together."

The only male in the room hated the idea just as much as he hated Dante's lack of manners. He refused to work with those mortals for such a delicate matter. He doubted that they would even believe him. But no matter how he could slice it, if there was any chance of defeating his mother then it was through the combined efforts of all seven of them.

Vergil's gaze is set on his young pupil. "As much as I hate it, I agree with my wife. If we are to defeat my mother I will need their help."

Raven nodded and stood from the couch. "Then it's settled. While you gather the other six you mentioned, I will begin my search for Nyx. It will take time so I suggest you keep up with your training."

Vergil frowned at the young woman. If there was one thing Vergil didn't need it was definitely training. Unlike humans and Faunus, as a Grimm he maintained his muscle mass and reflexes for an indefinite time. He could never grow weaker. His power would either stay the same or continue to increase. It was one of the many advantages of being a true Grimm.

"If anyone needs to keep up with their training it's you, my young student."

Raven only rolled her eyes as she brought her hand forward. She concentrated on the open space next to her. A field of red and black energy appeared. After the field was created she looked at the married couple with a sad smile. "I guess it's time to start my long search." Adette stood from her own couch and captured her in an embrace. Adette was warm, she noted. It was so loving and kind that Raven didn't want it to end.

Adette could tell that Raven was miserable. She felt so cold and the poor woman was shaking. It was clear to the mother of two that Raven was distraught over not just leaving a husband, but a little girl who would grow up without a mother. "It'll be okay." She let go of her and smiled tenderly at her. "When this is all over you can go back to your family, I promise dear."

"But I'm going to miss my daughter's life. I won't be there when she says her first words, or takes her first steps. I won't be able to walk her to school or help her with homework, or boys! I'm such a terrible mother! I'm taking my duties as a huntress before my own family!" She rested her head on Adette's chest. She was about to break down and she knew it. But she couldn't help it.

"To love someone is not the same as being there for them." Adette and Raven looked at the owner of the voice. Vergil now stood tall without his mug in hand. "To love someone is to protect them at all costs. Even if you must push them away, if it is to keep them safe then you must do it."

Raven smiled. She removed herself from Adette to hug her mentor and friend. Since Vergil was a head taller than her, she had her head rest on Vergil's chest. She felt his arms wrap around her moments after which made her happy. Vergil was like a father to her, he taught her everything she knew, but he also gave her fatherly affection when she needed, like now.

Adette smiled at her husband. Vergil may seem cold, but the man was kind… to her and the children at least. It warmed her heart to know that Vergil could thaw his cold exterior for Raven's sake.

Vergil released Raven and looked down at her. His piercing blue eyes looked straight at the bright red eyes. "Good luck." She smiled and only nodded. She went to her black-red field. As she was about to walk through she stopped for one last glance at the couple. She waved goodbye and walked towards the field, her and the energy field vanished at that instant.

The Grimm and Faunus couple sat back down. Adette rested her head on Vergil's shoulder. "Will she be okay?"

"I taught her, remember?"

Adette smiled at that. She knew Raven was strong. But what worried her was their friend's mental state. But Vergil probably knew what she meant and only wanted to make her feel better. 'I swear, this man.'

The wailing of their children pierces their ears. With a sigh, Adette and Vergil get up to calm the children down.

"Will you get Jaune this time?" Adette asked as they entered the room.

"Fine" Vergil said as he picked the baby up.

The two parents do their best to calm the little ones down, but they discovered that nothing would work. The worried mother tries to shush them but it does nothing to calm the two boys.

"What could it be now?" Vergil became aggravated at their unwillingness to "SILENCE!" Their cries only worsen and Adette glared at her husband. She quickly took Jaune away from him and attempted to calm them down alone. Their cries stop the moment they were all together. Realization hit the tired mother. With a smile, she placed both boys in the same carriage. Vergil walked up to the carriage to look at his children. "How did you get them to quiet down?"

Adette's finger is over her lips which motioned for him to be quiet. Her smile remained as she looked at the boys. "I bet it was the same for you and Dante." Vergil had a confused look before she continued. "It's because they're together."

Vergil's eyes widen at that fact. He looked at kids again and saw the two holding hands, their faces towards each other. Were they like him and his brother? "Dante and I were not like that." He stated defiantly.

The wife and mother only rolled her eyes. She loved her husband dearly but sometimes he needed to be honest with himself. She could imagine a baby Dante and Vergil holding hands as they slept. 'That is so cute!'

"Now that they're sleeping let's get to bed." Vergil said as he turned to leave. Adette followed him and the two were now in their bedroom. The two get under the covers of their large bed and began to sleep.

"Goodnight honey." Adette said as she nestled between her husband's arms. Vergil only replied with a grunt and the two lovers went to bed.


La Coupole a 5 star restaurant where only those most respectable of men dine at. In a private dining room was Vergil in a light blue tux with a white dress shirt underneath. The tie around his neck was a darker blue. He takes a sip of his white wine as he waited for his guest. The room was mostly red, from its walls, carpet and table cloth. A view of the city was next to Vergil as he continued to sit. It was silent. The only sound that could be heard was the server's breathing.

"Now this is a dinner I thought would never occur." The voice that contained a bit of playfulness belonged to a man. Vergil looked at his dinner guest.

A young man about a year younger than Vergil stood wearing a tux, the jacket was black while his tie and vest were green. The color of the man's hair was similar to Vergil's but the style he has is more similar to Dante's. As he took his seats, the man's brown eyes were locked on Vergil's ice blue.

"Ozpin, I see that you still have your bad habit of being late."

Ozpin chuckled as the waiter prepared to take his order. "It's good to see you too." He looked up at his waiter. "I'll just take a coffee."

"But it's almost midnight sir."

"Your point being?" The young hunter asked with mirth.

The waiter simply complied with his order and left to get his coffee. He came back with a mug of hot coffee with a wide variety of sugar and creamers. Ozpin accepts and puts in the necessary amount of sugar and creamer for him to enjoy his favorite beverage.

"And it seems you still have an unhealthy addiction to coffee."

Ozpin rolled his eyes as he took his first sip and deemed it good enough for further consumption. "I think you're mistaking me for Oobleck." He took another sip. "So tell me, what could my older brother possibly want from me?"

Vergil sent the waiter away so the two brothers could be alone. The older gentleman left and Vergil was now prepared to talk.

"I know you've felt it."

"And what could you possibly be on about?"

"Now is not the time for us to stall. We need to act if we are to ensure that Nyx is never released."

After another sip of his coffee, Ozpin released a stressed sigh. He knew that his older brother was right, but they were inching towards a time of peace. Peace was so close yet Nyx would ruin it in a matter of years. Ozpin was never one to be stressed, but this was a serious matter that demanded their attention.

"We are so very close to a time of peace. We cannot allow the existence of Nyx to be known, lest we risk the spread of panic." He looked at the city with a frown upon his features. "This goes beyond Vale. The whole world is at risk because of our family's mistakes." He looks at his elder brother with tired eyes. "Thus, this is our responsibility."

"It's because the whole world is at risk that we must have the kingdoms prepare!" Vergil retorted with rage.

Ozpin looked at his now empty mug. He had never felt so stressed and lost as he is now and with the death of Dante their chances of defeating Nyx have significantly decreased. So it was understandable why Vergil demanded that they assemble their other five acquaintances as well as warn the kingdoms. He offered his brother a smile despite the circumstances. "You've changed. Before you met Adette you never really cared about the world."

Vergil didn't reply. He simply glared at his younger brother until he would get back on title. So Ozpin complied. "While I agree that getting the others involved would increase our odds of success. I don't think it would be wise." Vergil stayed silent as he continued. "We mustn't be so bold. Our mother may be weak now. But she still controls the Grimm. If we do anything that would cause her to be concerned she will use the Grimm she has to attack our kingdoms."

"I understand your frustration, Vergil. I too would like to start searching for our mother and end this once and for all. But lives are at risk. If we are to ensure as little casualties as possible then we must handle this tactfully."

Vergil sighed after he took his last sip of wine. He hated to admit it but Ozpin was right. He too knew that handling this discreetly was the best option, but if they allowed Nyx full reign then lives would be lost. But if they were to act then even more people would die. The thought of his family being attacked by his lost brethren made his blood boil.

"I won't warn the other kingdoms, but I will gather our acquaintances in preparation for our eventual battle with Nyx." Ozpin said with a smile. Vergil smiled as well. It was rare for him to show any amount of happiness. But he knew that his younger brother was an invaluable asset. "I will make sure that this is discreet. So while we wait for Raven to discover Nyx's location we will go on with our lives, but we will prepare and we will be ready."

"That will do, I suppose." Vergil said.

"Well I'm glad we could compromise." Ozpin said with a smile. "So how have things been with your family?"

"Everything's fine. Jaune has been quite a handful but Adette loves the boy."

"Do you?" Ozpin questioned.

Vergil was taken aback by the question. He wasn't certain if he loved Jaune as much as he loved Adam. Jaune was his child not his. But with Dante's death Vergil and Adette were the only ones who could take care of him. Ozpin is far too busy with his career as a huntsman to take care of a child. With time though, could he love Jaune?

"Perhaps that was rude of me to ask." Ozpin concluded to himself and changed the subject. "I must say I can't say I like the whole aging thing." He said with a laugh.

Vergil sighed understanding completely. He, Dante and Ozpin were once immortal. However, the immortality their father granted was not actually eternal. In the instant that they fell in love their immortality would be void. Sparda wanted them to have a family so he made sure they lived long enough until they actually found a spouse.

In Vergil's case it was Adette. Dante found Johanna Arc while Ozpin found…

"How is that witch anyways?" Vergil asked.

Ozpin chuckled at the mention of the woman of his interest. "Glynda still won't budge sadly, but I'm working on it."

"I guess I should wish you luck as your brother, but honestly my condolences to Glynda."

"Oh ha, ha very funny." Ozpin said with a smile. It wasn't everyday when he and Vergil could spend quality time together. It was nice to say the least.

The brothers continued to sit. They said nothing as they continued to look at the beautiful view. Though they lost one brother, they were able to become closer through their loss. Together, maybe they could succeed in their fight against Nyx.


There you go the long awaited chapter 2 of Devil Arm. I hope you enjoyed, because I'm not going to release another chapter for this in awhile. Also, I want to let you all know that this story might or might not be a harem. To be honest I'm undecided right now but I'll make a decision eventually.
