(Start Prologue Brooklyn July 15th New York Summer Solstice)
A large Demonic form was seen as people gathered around it. The organic like hive rose up around the Empire State Building as if attempting to touch the heavens themselves. At times flashes of thunder would strike against it. But the strike did nothing save for being deflected off the creature. In fact it would appear to the less informed that the monster was spreading upward further bit by bit as it reached the apex.
A woman was seeing praying while others were recording it on their cell phones. All in all this was something very few people had seen to tell about it. Among the crowd a man walked on by and smirked a bit at what he was seeing before him.
"Kid… you and I have known each other since you were born." He said as the old man had darken skinned and a growing beard. "You think you can handle something like this without Dante around?" He asked for this was Morrison the Broker who provided jobs for those who hunted creatures of a demonic origin.
To think this summer had started off with a simple job and had quickly escalated to worldwide disaster in the making. Well for those of Sparda's Blood this was just another Wednesday.
(Inside the Structure)
A young man was walking through the inside of the Empire State Building now infected with the demons that now swarm it. No doubt it was trying to make its way to the upper apex where the Big Guys upstairs called home. His combat boots with straps around them stomped a bit as he looked to the area up ahead.
(Nearby)
A young girl 12 years of age was firing arrows at the demonic entity who dared attempt to invade Olympus. She was of course restricted with what power she may use considering who this being was and what lengths they went through for this. Nearby was a man older in appearance but like his ally released an aura of divine power that due to this demonic environment was restricted. The woman switched her bow for a hunting knife based weapon and charged with a roar but despite this it was clear by the golden blood flowing from their wounds they were losing.
(Back with the young man)
The young man was walking once more as his black and red two tailed coated trailed behind him while he walked. On his back you could make out a sword with a dragon design to the hilt and a blade coming from the mouth of the dragon. His arms had straps around the bicep as his hands were in fingerless glove. Once could make jeans stuffed into his boots as he kept walking allowing his coat to trail behind him.
But in his hands were a pair of large twin guns one being Ivory white and the other being ebony black. On the barrels were engraved in cursive Hunter and Slayer as the twin guns were his. The guns also had what appeared to be design at the handles of a Greek goddess and a catholic angelical being one of either for both guns.
As he walked the sound of battle grew closer to his ears no doubt he was getting closer to his target. But as he walked he pointed on gun to the side and shot down a demon of an insect like origin before grabbing his sword and slashing down upon a Bear like demon creating a thunder current with the strike. He kept walking spinning around his foes while slashing at them, firing at them with ease and a bit of style and grace, and most of all showing them who was in charge.
While he walked he spun his sword in his hand with a wild smirk on his features as his shining silver eyes saw every demon and beast coming his way as pray. Some of them crumbled to gold Dust, others went down in a flurry of blood from his strikes, and others well they were smart enough not to get in his way.
As he walked he had a target and destination in mind and that was the bitch who started this mess to begin with. "Jeez like father like son why do the kids have to clean up the parents mess?" He asked while walking just as he stabbed a Demon with his sword and kept going.
He then switched to a different weapon and used a powerful kick move to take down some more Demons and followed it up by punches from the gauntlet revealing he had hydra based grieves and gauntlets equipped now. He then did a downward high kick to one as it flew at him and in turn causing its attack to fail while it hit the ground in a splatter of blood. He then pulled out twin sickles that were chained together and began using what could only be described as ninja like movements to take down more foes. He wasn't done as he then combined them into a staff and went a step further and took down many more demons in one huge attack.
It seemed though more Demons chose to stand in his way to which he welcomed the challenge whole heartedly. Soon two chain swords appeared in his hands to which he used them in a similar matter to Kratos from the God of War game series but unlike Kratos this young man did so with style while cheering out in excitement.
He wasn't don't as once those weapons were gone he took out a guitar/axe combo and ripped out some metal cords which released a current of energy before the blades extended. Once they did he slammed and slashed them around before he kept his path up. He was almost to the gate way just as he pulled out a shot gun and fired it at a Demons face before he saw them getting closer.
"Gotta sprint it then." He said ready to move out. Soon he went to his based gear and in turn proceeded to charge to the path way leading to his target. With Hunter and Slayer he fired them at every Demon who came after him and also used their powerful shots to block their path long enough for him to get through.
(Back to the duo)
The Goddess of the Hunt was crawling away as even in this form it was easy to tell that this was Artemis and the one aiding her was her bother Apollo. She cursed her own pride and arrogance while she did this for the fact she was crawling away to safety was proof she had failed. Apollo was knocked out cold but Artemis knew she had no one to blame but herself for this.
In a way it was a long time coming considering she never knew her old huntress had become a Devil just before becoming Ursa Major. But despite this she kept going knowing full well it was pointless but hoped to try anyway.
"Is that all the power you have milady?" A Demonic voice spoke using the honorifics to mock Artemis. "Feel weak? Helpless? Betrayed?" It continued as Artemis glared at the demon on the flesh like throne. "Good that is exactly what I felt when you sided with Zeus after he defiled me long ago." The Demon spoke to which she then raised her hands. "So how about I repay the favor and strip you of your beloved chastity it's only fair after all." The Demon spoke as tentacle like arms stretched out torts Artemis.
But before she could respond or attempt to fight back the large wall nearby was knocked down and from it gun fire was heard as the demon was hit by the bullets in question. Artemis looked and almost smiled when she saw a familiar figure walk out holding twin guns. She noted he had a Kevlar like vest under his coat but noted the hunter knife on the Kevlar's left breast.
"The Kin of Sparda." The Demon growled as she glared at the young man.
"Evan." Artemis got out as she looked to the one who carried her power within him without being one of her hunters.
"Sorry I'm late had to deal with your brat outside who wouldn't let me through." Evan said as he smirked to the demon before him.
"You dare! One of Sparda's Kin a Son of Dante and most of all a Son of Artemis…" The demon growled glaring at Artemis. "I will deal with you and when I do this tower shall ascent to Olympus where I may exact my long overdue vengeance against Zeus." The Demon called out to which Evan smirked and pointed his Devil Sword Alastor at the Demon before him.
Evan then smirked before looking to Artemis as he saw her get up as best she could while Apollo began to come to. "Sorry mom… I'll be bagging this bitch here." Evan said while pointing his sword at the Demon on her high throne.
"You will try and FAIL!" The Demon roared out and in turn began their long awaited battle.
Artemis, Apollo, and even Evan saw this and began to wonder what had lead up to this showdown. For Evan it was when he left good old Red Grave and came to Manhattan. For Artemis it started long before her son's time, and for Apollo it was the day he first met Dante bringing the boy to the unknowing father.
But for Evan period it was that he got out of bed that morning to begin with.
(Start Chapter 1 Evan the Devil Hunter)
(Location: Truck Stop Limbo May 15th Nina's Trailer)
In a small trailer that was parked at a truck stop among other RV's and Trucks a young man could be seen sleeping on a bed with a black leather jacket with red inner part and red linings on it added to the hood part as well. The young silver haired man was sleeping peacefully in his bed as nearby was the Sword Alastor leaning against a table with twin guns atop it.
He was dressed in a black T-Shirt, black jeans, and black boots with straps on them. His hands had fingerless gloves on him and over his t-shirt was a Kevlar vest made for his choice in major career paths. Soon the sound of a phone ringing was heard as it came from the driver seat area of the trailer. The phone continued to ring before someone stepped out of another bed nearby as the figure in question growled while rubbing the sleep from her eyes.
"God fucking dammit Evan wake up and answer the phone." The girl said as she heard a snore meaning he wasn't getting up without a fight. The girl sighed before she got to the phone and answered it. "Devil May Cry." She began into the receiver waiting for either a familiar voice or the password for this. "Ok whatcha want?" Nina asked as it was clear she got the password from the caller. "Huh Long Island New York you say?" Nina asked writing it down as well as the bill for the job in question. "Got it we'll be there ASAP." She said before hanging up and walking over to the sleeping Hunter.
"Hey Evan wake up." Nina urged harsher than last time while shaking him a bit. "Come on jackass get off your lazy-ass we got a job." Nina said harshly before she kicked the guy in the side waking him up and causing him to fall off the bed in a yelp.
"Jeez I was getting up." Evan said as he yawned to this in turn while stretching. "Long Island right?" He asked to which Nina smirked.
"Yeap seems old Morrison's tip paid off." Nina said as Evan smirked to this.
"Well how about we get a move on then!" Evan said as he then grabbed his old leather jacket from the hanger and put it on. "I'm getting the feeling this is going to be one Hell of a party!" Evan called out ready to kick some Demon Ass.
"Hold ya'll horses we need to get there first." Nina said grabbing the keys and considering where they were parked right now it would be best to take it slow. Evan of course groaned in annoyance as he no doubt wanted to go wild on some Devils and Demons real soon. "Don't worry once we get there you do your thing and we get paid." Nina said to which Evan rolled his eyes in response.
"You mean you get paid while I get the scraps." Evan commented as he took his seat on the passenger side while Nina took the driver's seat.
"Hey remember I'm the one who supplies your gear without me you'd be dead five times over already." Nina countered to which Evan scoffed a bit in response.
"Yeah and rip me off for everything I own making me the test subject for your 'works of art,' in live combat." Evan said while he plopped his feet onto the dashboard before him.
"Hey my gear saved your hide more times than you'd admit!" Nina countered as it seemed they didn't get along. But that was far from it as this was just them on a normal day making jabs each other in one way or form.
But for him this was just another average day for the life of two Devil Hunters.
(Meanwhile at Empire State Building Manhattan New York)
A cloaked figure was walking through the busy streets of New York. The gender was hard to tell due to the fact the figure was covered enough to hide their identity. But the figure was female judging by the hells she wore that seemed more attuned for combat. But if this female figure was human was yet to be seen as her hands were more like claws than anything else. As she walked she arrived at her destination and looked upward to the Empire State Building giving it an intense glare she had reserved for the ones up top.
How long as it been she often wondered since she was cursed and betrayed by those she swore loyalty to. These Gods were nothing more than overgrown children and their leader was the worst of them all. She shared the sentiments of Luke when he had attempted to unleash Kronos upon the world. She would have gladly recruited him but she knew Kronos was just as bad as the other Gods who he was father to.
Ironic many times over have Prophesy's tried to be avoided yet throughout the age's attempts to stop it only ensured them instead. Gods, Titans, Demons, and mortals were weak like that fearing the end of their own reigns growing drunk on the fruits of that golden age. She would be different and to start… she will enact a vengeance long since overdue since the end of the Greek Empire. For her vengeance was all that drove her.
Vengeance against the God who tainted her, vengeance against the mistress who she was once loyal to but had been betrayed by her, and most of all vengeance against all Gods for allowing this injustice to occur and making a demon of her. She was a Demon she knew this and soon when her vengeance is complete she will rule Olympus and in turn the human world as well. She just needed the three great powers to do so and one of them was just atop this building on Olympus.
She knew the Gods in the area will be made aware the minute she tries thus she had a plan set up to keep the closest ones preoccupied and blaming each other if her cards were played right. This time that damn Devil Hunter Dante won't be able to stop what she had planned again.
The figure then proceeded to flip the bird up at the Empire State Building and with it at the Olympians with the silent promise that she would be coming for them. She would be coming for her long awaited and long denied vengeance against them.
(Scene Break May 18th Long Island New York)
Artemis was not in a good mood.
She and her huntresses were currently tracking down a group of monsters that had been gathering near Long Island, not too far away from the magical border of Camp Half-Blood on her father's request. As they travelled, they were ambushed by all sorts of monsters, from small armies consisting of Cyclops and Dracaena to the much more powerful ones like the Drakons and Hellhounds of the Underworlds. A number of huntresses were injured, but Artemis had been very thankful that none of her sisters had fallen. The Hunt was a flawless fighting unit, as they were stronger, faster, and more accurate than the average demigod, nymph or mortal, but sometimes there were monsters that were too powerful even for her greatest huntress to handle by themselves, and that was when Artemis came in, picking out the most dangerous targets and usually fighting them alone, so that her huntresses would not get hurt.
For three months, the huntresses of Artemis had been on the move, moving from hunt to hunt without break. Artemis had also not picked up a single new recruit, believing that there was no reason for her to bring in inexperienced girls when they kept going on dangerous missions for Olympus like this one. It had been the most dangerous series of hunts they had taken in a very long time. For an unknown reason, monsters had become a lot more active recently, attacking everyone, even mortals, and making it even harder for demigods to arrive at Camp Half-Blood.
Artemis had never seen such behaviors from them since the moment she started hunting with her mother's bow and arrows. Monsters were primal creatures, but Artemis knew better than anyone that they were not stupid. They would never attack mortals on sight, because they had no reason to do so, and let them move on with their life, but lately, there was news about them attacking towns and villages in large numbers. Zeus was worried that someone was using them to cause chaos all around the world, but Artemis couldn't help but feel that her father knew much more than that, because for once he did not take it too seriously like he had done in the past. Whenever monsters became too much of a trouble, he would summon Artemis and order her to study them, see if they were working for someone with the intention to create an army to go against Olympus. That had happened before, several times even, and it was all thank to her sister they had been able to prevent wars before it broke out, but now, when monsters started leaving their marks all over the world, as far as she knew, Artemis was not called.
"Have the scouts returned?" Artemis asked as she walked out of her tent and asked the nearest huntress, who shook her head in response. "I see…" Frowning, Artemis nodded her head thankfully at the girl and walked to the border of the camp, where a group of girls were feeding their hunting wolves treats. It'd been hours since they left, and the scouting unit had never taken so much time to scout Long Island in the past.
"Thalia." She called, and almost instantly a huntress came to stand at her side. She was a tall, graceful and gorgeously beautiful young woman, with dark brown eyes, copper-colored skin and long, dark hair that was braid with a silver bracelet. Like every huntress of the Hunt, she was dressed in silver, as her outfit consisted of a white shirt, silver jacket, silvery camo pants and black combat boots. She also carried a silver bow and wore a quiver full of silver arrows on her back. Her name was Thalia Grace Daughter of Zeus, and she was a loyal lieutenant to Artemis, having served the goddess after the demise of Thalia Nightshade.
"My lady?" She asked, lowering her head a bit to greet the auburn-haired goddess, who was taking on an appearance that looked even younger than she was, but it was the average age of her huntresses and all young maidens for whom she was patron before they became smitten with boys.
"How are the injured doing?" She asked in concern. She cared for her huntresses greatly, because when a young maiden became a member of the Hunt, they became her maidservants, her companions, her sisters in arms and in a way, they became the daughters that she would never have on her own.
"They are ready to continue, my lady," Thalia answered but somehow also felt something off as of late.
Artemis nodded her head in understanding, but still, she said "I want them to remain here. You and I will head out with a few others. I have a feeling that the hunt ahead of us will be the most dangerous." Thalia widened her eyes in surprise. It was rare for her mistress to give out that order. "You come back to camp and select the ones you want to come with us on this hunt. It's time for us to head out." She told her lieutenant "The sooner we can get this done, the better."
"Yes, I understand." Thalia nodded her head and headed back to the camp, leaving Artemis behind to think about every possible outcome of the upcoming battle.
(Scene Break New York Downtown Devil May Cry Trailer)
In the Trailer we once more find Evan this time on the passenger seat relaxing as he rested his feet on the dashboard. With him in the driver's seat was Nina as the noted the location they were in and saw they were getting closer to their desired target this evening.
The radio was playing Highway to Hell by ACDC due to the station it was on while they drove. "Jeez we there yet I'm dying of boredom here." Evan said knowing the job wasn't going to wait for them.
"Hold ya horses we're in New York so suck it up and wait will ya." Nina said while they drove to their destination while Evan stood up and went to the mini fridge.
"Yeah but still no demons." Evan said while he grabbed a soda and opened the can and began drinking. "So think you can whip me up some new gear anytime soon?" Evan asked while he walked by and pressed a button on the juke box before he sat back on the passenger seat with his soda drink in hand.
"Depends if you can get me the materials anytime soon." Nina said as Evan downed his drink with ease. "And why do you need to drink so much Mtn. Dew?" She asked looking at the drink in question.
"Hey if I had some Dorito's we'd be having a different talk." Evan countered once he finished his drink with ease. But then his eyes saw something up ahead and first of which it was Mist which was never a good sign. Second he saw the target of their hunt's minions roaming up ahead and in turn the juke box began to play its tune.
*Insert Devil May Cry 5 OST: Devil Trigger
They were lizard like Demons who were crawling all over the area ahead but the Mist did not hide the Demons only the actions of the Olympian Gods and such. "Nina." Evan began but Nina already saw.
"Yeah hold yer tis I see'em." Nina said before she got to work.
The Van began swerving and ramming every demons it got to contact with. The demons were splattered, rammed, even made into road kill. Evan laughed a bit as he then took out his guns and looked over to Nina. "Hey don't hit EVERY bump in the road save some for me!" Evan called out before sticking Slayer out the window and began firing at the Demons as they drove through them.
A Demon began to crawl to Nina's side and window before she grabbed a screw driver from her belt and stabbed it into its eyes forcing it off. The Demon was then ran over by the wheel leaving it a bloody mess on the road as they passed by. They began to note the cars were crowding up no doubt being ditched at some point and the Demons taking advantage of this. But then Nina hit two demons who splattered on the window forcing her to use the window wiper to get them off of her view.
The two then saw a road block of cars and Demons up ahead to which Evan smirked to Nina who smiled and nodded back at him. Nina then turned the wheel violently and in turn the Trailer was sent flying to which Evan flew out the passenger window and began shooting up the demons in his way. As he soared through the air he had both Hunter and Slayer drawn while using them to shoot at each and every demon in his way or in his line of sight. None of his demonic foes were safe as he went for headshots or ricochet based shots while he slaughtered these demonic vermin.
In fact it was almost like Evan was flying around the Trailer as he passed the window to see Nina taking out a lollipop and begin sucking on it before he shot at another Demon. Evan even used the debris from signs and busted up city property to help him deal with the scum by either jumping off them, shooting from them, or using them as part of his ricochet shots.
Evan then began to maneuver his body to the car door of the side he was sitting just as he shot the gun torts some combustible and flammable material. Soon the Trailer landed back on its wheels and with it Evan returned to his seat before the duo of Devil Hunters were driving down the road again.
*End OST
Once he began to relax Nina took her lollipop from her mouth and smiled to her cohort. "Well if we're getting that kind of welcome… then this is going to be one Hell of a Party." Evan said all but excited to see what was coming.
(Meanwhile with Artemis and her Hunters)
Artemis was not expecting this far from it in fact. She and her Huntresses had come here to deal with a problem involving a beast and it attacking innocent bystanders. But what Artemis didn't expect was a blast from the past when meeting with these retile like monsters and noting how some of them were even flying a bit with draconic wings. The monsters roared as she had her hunting knife out when they got to close for comfort.
She saw how her Huntress were running out of Arrows fast and knew they had to escape. But doing so would put a bad image on her and the others. The last time she got through this was thanks to another Hunter who specialized in such creatures. She let the man go that time seeing as he helped her and her huntresses despite his annoying flirtatious nature. But at least he didn't go for her seeing as she had been known to take the form of a 12 year old.
She then heard Thalia cry out causing Artemis to go wide eyed seeing her Lieutenant was pinned. "Thalia!" Artemis cried out and went to try and help her.
But before she could do that she had to duck as a large van drove overhead and splattered the demon atop Thalia yet miraculously enough missed the demigod daughter of Zeus completely. The Van then did a doughnut and parked with ease as the demon it had splattered was stuck on the grill.
*Insert Devil May Cry 5 OST: Devil Trigger (Devil Shocker Mix)
Then the passenger door opened and from it Evan came out to which Artemis noted how he looked very much like a younger Dante with Silver eyes. As Evan walked out he smiled and smirked at the down Hunters who began to get back up with a struggle. "You all look like you could use a hug… to bad I ain't giving so you ladies better scram." Evan said passing by them as he walked torts the Demons before him.
"W-what?" Thalia asked as Artemis for a moment looked as if she saw a ghost. "Hey wait what are you doing you're going to get killed!" Thalia tried to stop her but then noted another major thing.
"The Mist is about but he's not affected by it." Artemis said catching Thalia by surprise even more so at how the driver had expertly rammed the Demon with her van.
"You ladies better not crap and piss yer selves." Nina said as she walked in enjoying her sugary treat. "He likes to kill Demon things." She said before tossing the bare stick of the candy away. "So let'em do his thing." Nina finished as she looked to the down hunter and Goddess.
"Is that boy insane or suicidal!?" A hunter asked to which another followed up.
"Also he had the nerve to interfere with Lady Artemis' hunt." A second one said but it was then that Evan smirked to them.
"You ladies should calm your tits down." HE began serving to tickle their ire. "Killing demon fuckers like this is my job." Evan said as he then shouldered Alastor before allowing it to rest on his back and proceeded to crack his neck and loosen his shoulder a bit. "Now then." He began while he got ready by pulling out his guns Hunter and Slayer. He then proceeded to walk forward spinning the fire arms in his hands with expert ease before pointing them at the Demons before him. "Let's have fun!" Evan roared out ready to go wild on these Demons as he started off by shooting them down.
Some Demons got close to him to which he dodged their twin strikes from their claws. As he weaved between the two blades he then shot at the Demons knocking them back before he landed a bit. One then proceeded to try for a sneak attack only for Evan to point Hunter at its neck and fire it with enough force to splatter its blood.
He wasn't done as he was saving his sword for the good stuff while he shot up Demons left and right. HE even jumped onto a Demon's back and began riding piggy back on it and using the reptilian monster to hit its friends whole Evan shot them with Slayer.
He then jumped up and then pulled out Alastor as the blade radiated a violet colored thunder that he then use it to stab a Demon. He then used the momentum and had the stabbed demon hit the other ones and slashing them with its claws while still stabbed by Alastor. Once he was done he shot its head and forced it off before he began killing these demons with style.
All the while he was doing these feats the Huntress of Artemis were in shock and awestruck at how this foul mouthed white haired boar handled these monsters who they as a group had troubled with. In fact he was single handedly taking them all out with nothing but twin guns and a sword with a dragon design that produced thunder and lightning as if he was born to do this.
The Huntresses despised how they needed this man's aid to do so but most were weary of his aid as well. The way he moved and acted was no coincidence to them. He was clearly a professional at this task and Artemis knew by heart he was a half-blood but that did not make sense. No Half-Blood could survive this long to be this skilled and this powerful and this was her judging his age by appearances alone.
A Demigod of such strength yet the way he fights who his godly parent could be is anyone's guess. Soon more Demons appeared as them had spikes on their bodies. Nina then spoke up again looking to Artemis and her huntresses who she managed to gather together during the tussle. "Yeah he's a real pro at smackin' around Demons. That's why I supply him with his gear so he can kick some demon ass!" Nina boasted to the huntresses who were shocked to hear and see how skilled and strong Evan was.
Artemis saw this and grew concerned as Evan smirked for he had a hunch what those spikes were used for out here. He then sheathed his sword and then clapped his hands together as if to call a puppy. "Come on bring it on." He said gesturing the Demon with a taunt.
It then roared out and attacked to which Evan saw it fire it spikes at him. Evan pulled out his guns once more and began spinning and dodging the spikes with ease all the while getting closer to his quarry. But then the sound of the spikes tearing through metal was heard as Nina saw this and glared at her partner who had jumped to a high spot to avoid being skewered.
"Hey asshole watch the trailer!" Nina roared out glaring at Evan who glared back at her.
"Hey I don't tell you how to do your job so don't tell me how to do mine!" Evan roared out before he then avoided another set of spike attacks from his foe and in turn jumped down. Evan put Hunter away and busted out Alastor and in turn began to shot and slash the spikes away with trained succession. Once Evan was on the ground he charged at the Demons in question and began easily avoiding the spikes while putting Alastor away in favor of Hunter to go with its twin known as Slayer. Soon the guns found themselves at the neck and face of the Demon who looked down the barrels to the smirking Evan. "Die." He said before firing the head and neck enough times to cause whatever was left of the bloody mess that was once its head to fall off while the Demon itself fell limp clearly dead by the hunters hands.
*End OST
Evan then spun the guns in his hands before he put them away back in their respected holsters. "Well then that wraps things up around here." Evan said as he began to walk away a bit. "Still where is the big guy around here?" Evan asked while looking for the one commanding these Demons. After all when small-fry gather like this it usually mean theirs a boss nearby.
"He's probably up ahead!" Nina called out as Evan smirked to his partner.
"Got it keep an eye on the ladies will ya." Evan called back as he then charged down the road to locate the Demon in charge of these small fry.
"Who was that?" Artemis asked in shock at what Evan had pulled off.
"He's Evan a Devil Hunter." Nina said to which Thalia spoke up next.
"But he's a half-blood isn't he?" Thalia asked knowing a half-blood when she saw one.
"Nah. I just like calling him a tri-blood." Nina said as she then went to grab the first aid kits from the car.
"Tri-blood?" Artemis asked causing her wariness to grow to accompany the confusion of her voice.
"He's part human, part demon, and part God so he's a tri-blood." Nina explained as she brought the first aid kit back.
"Wait this won't be necessary." Artemis tried to deny but Nina smirked and opened the case to reveal demonic stars of sorts.
"Trust me you'll need it." Nina said as she then gave each of them a vitality star. "Crush them and you'll be good as new." Nina explained as she then got to work. "So ya'll still going to go after him?" Nina asked after putting the med kit away.
"Of course needless to say after this I have some questions for him." Artemis said while she held something in her hand that seemed to give a soft glow. "Do you intend to stop me half-blood?" Artemis asked while looking over to Nina whom the Goddess was aware was a half-blood herself.
"Only if ya'll go ill prepared." She said opening the van side door and gesturing them in. "Step into my shop ladies." I got all the gear ya'll need for the right price." She said offering the door to them to which Artemis glared at the Half-Blood.
"You intend to make a Goddess buy your goods?" She asked as such a thing was unheard of even to Artemis.
"He we all gotta make a living am I right?" Nina asked to which Artemis glared at the girl who she knew was taking full advantage as a defender of maidens.
"You sneaky little." Artemis began but Nina smiled to this.
"Hey just saying if you want to go after those things at best your bow has the best shot at taking them can't say about the rest of them ladies." Nina said gesturing to the huntress who were looking away and blushing a bit at how they were beaten by these powerful unknown beasts. "But if you're ok with sending your huntresses to their death then be my guest." Nina said to which Artemis saw she had no choice here.
"How much are your Devil Hunting Goods worth?" Artemis asked referring to Nina's goods. If this girl was an expert with the forge then no doubt Artemis was in the presence of one of Hephaestus's half-bloods.
(Back with Evan)
Evan was walking down the street after a prior sprint as behind him were the corpses of Demons he had taken down left and right. Evan nary had a scratch on him accounting it to his mixed heritage's healing factor. As he walked he soon saw a large figure coming up ahead surrounded by destroyed vehicles and trashed buildings. As he walked he smirked his cocky smirk knowing he found his quarry at long last.
*Insert Devil May Cry 3 OST: Suffer (Cerberus Boss Theme)
The being began to rise up standing over Evan as a large Teutonic knight with a pair of gigantic gauntlet that may or may not doubles as shields. It glared down upon Evan with demonic eyes as Evan smirked at its ever present hateful glare. "So at last you appear kin of Sparda!" The Demon roared out glaring at Evan who in turn smirked at the demon in question.
"Well look what we have here." Evan said as he looked to the big guy. "They must make'em big where you come from huh?" Evan continued as he began walking back and forth looking at his foe. "Or are you just a hallway decoration." HE said as the Demon glared at the oncoming foe. "Then again if I was inspected the party is pretty good so far managed to keep the ladies here." Evan said to go along with his taunt to the large Demon.
"You may jest Kin of Sparda but I can smell that scent on you the scent of a Sparda. The scent of a son of Dante!" The Demon growled as Evan smirked in response.
"What seriously?" Evan asked sniffing his arm pit. "Sorry bro I had a shower and just came back from another workout with your goons can't help if you have over sensitive smelling." Evan countered as pulled out Alastor and spun it calmly before pointing it at the Demon who was his target.
"Humorous but those pawns served their purpose SHE told us to keep you and the Goddess busy." The Demon said using his fists to keep himself steady while standing up.
"Wow I got some rep then." Evan said smirking before the demon attacked and in turn Aster used Alastor to deflect the attack seeing the large fist create sparks as it hit an area behind him. Evan sheathed Alastor and smirked at how his foe caused some damage before the first returned and in turn Evan spun and avoided the boomerang attack.
"Don't, you underestimate me swine! For you face Shielder Angelo and I shall send you straight to Hell!" The Demon now known as Shielder Angelo roared out as its chest armor opened with the roar revealing a glowing spot to which Evan knew what it was.
"Jeez wanna cut the chase huh. I like that." Evan said while walking back and forth. "Well then." HE began as he stopped. He then pulled out his guns and spun them in his hands and in turn pointed them at the Demon. "Let's rock!" Evan called out ready to go wild on his foe.
In turn Shielder launched his fist like shields at Evan who then dodged as the fight had officially begun now. After Evan had dodged he began firing at it repeatedly with Hunter and Slayer noting how slow it was no doubt due to its arms. He made extra sure to aim for the joints and spots where the armor met. As the battle progressed Evan then had to dodge another attack and saw spots that looked a bit loose.
He then went for the spot with Alastor and saw they were in fact loose because they were more flesh then anything. Shielder roared in fury and began charging again swinging his arms wildly at Evan who quickly dodged the attacks. This of course gave him and idea as he in turn began firing at the spot in question causing Shielder more pain as he then sent one of his arms out at Evan. Evan of course side stepped and smirked as the fist got stuck.
"Wow damn." He said flicking the chain of the arm causing it to shake but not come undone. He then charged at Shielder and began attacking it with Alastor aiming for the flesh part he knew served a purpose here. "Come on I thought you were all big and tough!" Evan taunted slicing the flesh enough causing part of the armor segment to come undone but not enough for the weak spot to be seen.
"Oh I'm sorry did that hurt?" Evan asked taunting the demon even further. "Sure looked like it did." Evan finished to which the Demon roared in fury.
"Impudent mutt! I will rip out your eyes and feast on your veins!" The Demon roared in pure fury clearly not happy with that Evan did to him.
"Come and try." Evan taunted before he did a bow to it. "Because the show is just beginning." He said with his taunt showing he wasn't backing down anytime soon.
The battle once more continued as Evan began shooting at the Demon with both Hunter and Slayer while running to the side. He was trying to get in close but now Shielder Angelo was trying to keep Evan at a distance knowing if Evan is allowed to he will unveil his weak spot and more than likely kill him where he stood.
Evan then pulled out Alastor and proceeded to deflect attacks sent his way from the Demons retractable arms. He wasn't done as he then used Air Hike and began shooting at it with his guns. The Demon was hit by the flurry of bullets before he landed again. Evan then pulled Alastor again and charged with his sword pointed forward.
"Stinger!" He called out stabbing into the Demon but he wasn't done. "Million Stab!" He called out stabbing the demon with Alastor multiple times. The Demon roared and bashed Evan away but the Devil Hunter spun in the air and landed on a car crushing it with the impact. "Ok I'll give you that one." Evan confessed enjoying this fight.
Soon arrows were shot at the Demon to which Evan saw it and moaned in annoyance. "Oh come on the Calvary?!" Evan complained wanting to enjoy himself some more.
"Step aside boy we'll handle this." A Huntress said but Evan laughed in response to that.
"Sorry Lady but this bastard is my quarry so I'll handle this." Evan said looking to the Huntress with his Silver Eyes.
"You and what army pig." The Huntress countered but before a fight could break out Artemis stepped in.
"Stop!" She ordered her Huntress to which the two looked to the Goddess. "Despite my objections he knows these creatures better than any of us. Thus it's best we… follow his lead." Artemis said disliking trusting this male but for the sake of her Huntresses and the hunt she will make the one exception here.
"Well glad someone sees reason here." Evan said with a smirk on his face. "Besides the night is still young full moon and everything." Evan said with a large grin being etched into his features. "Now then like she said follow my lead and LET ROCK!" He called out before charging in with Alastor once more performing his Stinger attack and followed up with his needle move at the fleshy parts of the Demon.
The Demon then proceeded to try and smack him away but Evan was ready to which he jumped back and over the attack. He then stabbed the sword into the arm and held on tight. The Demon roared in fury as it then began to swing the arm around trying to force Evan to let go.
Evan then smirked and took out Slayer before aiming and firing at its eye. The bullet hit allowing its blood to flow and use its arm to grab it out of reflex. Evan smirked and stabbed at its shoulder during this and then slashed at its head forcing the Demon back. Evan wasn't done and both Artemis and her huntress saw this clear as day. He gave them an opening to which Artemis took out her bow and the huntresses taking the 'rented,' guns that Nina rented out to them and began firing.
She was grateful for silencers and the occasional hunting rifle and was fortunate she had to foresight to teach her huntresses the use of some of those firearms for situations like this. But she honestly hated that they had to use man's weapons to kill this beast.
She saw the armor was loose no doubt do to Evan's prior work and how it was hanging off of the flesh part he had hit before. Luckily the Huntresses knew this and gave Evan the opening he needed to hit it without getting hurt. The Demon sent his attack out again using his chain shields but Evan saw it coming to which he then jumped in and kicked it down and sliced it off. In doing the demon roared in fury and charged at Evan only for the Devil Hunter to charge as well. Evan then jumped over and sliced through the last bits of flesh keeping the armor in place revealing a pulsing organ inside it.
*End OST
The demon was now extremely angry as the pulse increased and began glowing. Before anyone of Artemis or her Huntresses could react the organ fired a beam out hitting them and scattering them while also injuring many of the huntresses of Artemis. "No!" Artemis called out but then was hit by the other shield that sent her into the nearby car denting it heavily.
"Jeez gotta wrap this up." Evan said before he dodged an attack and air-hiked upward to a high point.
"What do you plan to run now boy?!" Shielder demanded glaring at Evan who smirked a bit.
"Nah not my thing." He said while he freed his hands of his sword and guns. "In fact I know just the way to kick your ass." Evans said before he reached out with his right arm and focused his power.
Artemis then went wide eyed below as she looked up and felt her power getting a small drain somehow. Artemis won't lie she had felt this a few times before in recent times and when she brought it up with some of the other gods swearing them to secrecy on it they told her it sounds similar to when their half-bloods called upon their power from the divine parent. So needless to say when she looked to Evan she was even more in shock to see what he was summoning forth in hand.
Soon to her utter shock a silver light flowed as the moon almost shined with it. But despite this she knew the design and power anywhere. Though slightly different she knew the bow enough to know that it was HER bow. She had it in her hands and only those of her power could summon it. Could it be a power he possesses… no, that wasn't it. She kept trying to wrack her mind over the scenario before she felt a glow on her person. She took it out and saw the amulet the Devil Hunter had given her years ago.
Artemis then held it torts Evan and saw it was glowing brighter before she pulled it away. In doing so the glow dulled before she remembered when Dante had approached her.
(Flashback)
It has been a couple weeks since the incident with King Midas' shade and Artemis had nearly forgotten about it. Mind you she also had to deal with another problem in the form of another shade one who apparently held a grudge against her. Needless to say this Shade was not one to quiet so easily starting small enough with hit and runs on her and her huntresses. This lead to Artemis tracking it down and the Shade changing tactics on her and openly attacking her turning her into the hunted.
She had never met a quarry who could outthink her and her Huntresses before and the fact if it wasn't for another Hunter named Dante she'd have been worse for wear. Speaking of the male the Hunter was in the area because he had a job to do as he claims and was just in the right spot at the right time. Apparently he was a professional but by the end of it the shade had escaped and wasn't heard from again. Dante had earned a reward but he didn't kill it so no reward for him. She knew not what compelled her to do this but she heard of his debt problem thus she used her own methods and paid some of it off.
She figured if he knew she was the one behind it he didn't show it. At least until she met him a few days later at her Huntresses camp. "Hey Arty." Dante was heard as Artemis and her huntresses were camped out and somehow Dante still found her.
"What do you want?!" She demanded a bit tipsy but seeing as he wasn't here to fight she decided to give him the benefit of the doubt.
"I got a present something only you can have." He said before he threw the same amulet over to Artemis who caught it.
"What is this?" She asked to which Dante shrugged.
"Figured you plan to stay an 'eternal virgin,' but if you ever find a way to have kids without the fun part have that close." He said before he began to walk away. "Apply something only you can have like blood or some other thing and go nuts with it." Dante said to which Artemis glared.
"And why would I accept it?" She demanded to which Dante shrugged.
"I don't want it plus I just had this gut feeling it's supposed to be yours." He said as he stopped while having the Goddesses attention on the silver haired man.
"And what's to stop me from throwing it away?" Artemis asked to which Dante shrugged.
"Nothing." He said to which this surprised many. "Take it as tribute or whatever it's yours to do what you want." Dante said before he began walking away. "Ciao." He said to which Artemis inspected the item.
The Amulet looked to be dull but it had this add combination in design of a demon and herself on the hunt. If one were to carefully look it would seem the combination was preparing to hunt as well. Artemis in turn took the 'gift,' as tribute from a, for lack of better term 'foolish mortal,' and kept it with her after applying a bit of her blood to it. When her blood mixed with it the gold liquid instantly seeped into the amulet and in turn it transformed into a silverfish red amulet that had a large gem in it where the demon/goddess was made in worship inside the crystal.
She never lost or let go of it despite her hatred for men she did have somewhat of a respect for the mysterious Dante. A respect she made sure to keep hidden… after the tragic fate of Orion centuries prior. Perhaps if Dante wasn't so intent on being a bachelor for the rest of his days… he could have been what Orion was to her. But life and the fates were at times cruel as before she could approach the subject with the hunter… he vanished after an incident in the city of Red Grave. No one had seen him since and thus Artemis assumed the worse may have happened.
(End Flashback)
Artemis sight returned to the Hunter who was now holding her bow as did, her other Huntresses who saw this event play out. None of them had seen it coming so they were unprepared for when it happened.
The Demon saw this and was horrified at what was about to happen to it. "No don't do it!" The Demon said but Evan scoffed in response to the demons begging for mercy.
"Sorry can't do that you caused a lot of damage today so I gotta put you down." Evan said but this turned the fear in the demon into rage in response.
"YOU BASTARD!" The Demon roared in fury and attacked only to give Evan the opening he needed as he began to notch up the arrow and channel his power into it.
"And…. Bingo." He said before releasing the arrow and allowing the silver/red light that was the arrow to fly to the demon. It sailed true and strong where it proceeded to hit the pulsing organ like weak spot of a core and followed it up by going straight through the demon causing it to fall to the ground. It fell and landed hard to which Evan came down and walked torts it shouldering Alastor.
He glared down upon the defeated Demon who glared at Astor before he began to laugh a bit. "I see she will most enjoy this." The Demon said with its laugh but coughing as well showing it was dying. "Son of Dante… Son of Artemis you have been found." The Demon began as Artemis was beginning to rear in on this but missed what it began saying. "YOU. ARE. DEAD!" It roared with it dying breaths but wasn't done just yet. "She will have her vengeance on all of you. All of which who begot her wrath; Zeus, your whore mothers, and her huntresses." It said just before Artemis arrived to look upon it.
"Sorry buddy but not gonna let that happen. But if you're trying to say I'm a son of a bitch well you need a better line." He said before he got Alastor. "So tell her I said HI!" He roared the last part swinging his blade down finishing off the demon's life.
Once this was done Evan began to walk away while sheathing Alastor on his back. "Way to go!" Nina called out as Artemis looked to him glaring. Before Evan could get to the van though he was surrounded by Artemis and her huntress to who all glared at him.
"I'm guessing this isn't a harem moment is it." Evan joked knowing how he had such a dream when he was 13.
"Where did you get that?" Artemis asked as she recognized her bow anywhere and only she was permitted to use it baring any half-bloods born of her but she swore an oath to remain a maiden. Though she would never confess it Dante came closest to making her willingly break that oath and no one has done so since Orion. A shame the Hunter had vanished after Red Grave otherwise after his exploits as a Devil Hunter prior to Red Grave she would have sought him out and demanded he give her a half-blood.
"Oh the jacket? Yeah it's just an old thing pop got for me after a job in Colombia." Evan said before he dodged an arrow sent by a huntress by sliding his head to the side.
"Not the jacket boy the bow!" A huntress demanded to which Evan checked his face and saw it missed.
"Oh that… meh was out training one day, a demon showed up, I panicked, and that bad boy showed up." Evan explained calmly as he stretched a bit.
"I find that story to be a load of bullshit." A huntress said to which Artemis had to agree but something inside her told her otherwise.
"Hey believe what you want not my problem." Evan calmly said as he sat down on some wrecked metal calmly. "Look if we can go back and forth about this for ages but we won't get anywhere with it. Plus you all have some injured to tend to stat." Evan said but he wasn't done either. "And a few dead who need a proper burial." Evan finished to which a Huntress was about to attack.
"Why you!" She began but then Artemis stopped her.
"No he's right." She said knowing her Huntresses took priority. "First we handle the injured and bury our dead." Artemis said before glaring at Evan and Nina… mainly Evan. "You two will wait for us to return from that I have questions for you all." Artemis said to which Evan shrugged.
"Whatever you say lady." Evan said knowing how Artemis chose the form of a 12 year old seeing as that was when girls start going through the, 'wonderful,' joys of puberty.
Artemis needed answers knowing these demons targeted her specifically mainly because they didn't bother trying to hide themselves from her. But for now she had other priorities to deal with at the moment after tonight.
When they were gone Evan then looked to Nina who finished collecting the rented weapons as their lease was over and even took a few bits and pieces from the now dead demon. "You're going to bail on them Artemis girls aren't you?" Nina asked to which Evan smirked.
"Oh big time." Evan said before the two sprinted to the van and loaded up while Artemis and her Huntresses went to gather up the fallen.
(Back with Artemis)
They were lucky to suffer very view deaths to which Artemis was grateful. The injured would be back on their feet in no time but despite this she was wary. That boy used her bow and drew some of her power forth. But that shouldn't be possible she had no half-bloods she was not permitted such joys. Right now they were gathering the dead in one spot with shrouds over their heads while the injured were getting bandages up both of which were off the road.
But before Artemis could question it further she heard a familiar engine and turned to see Nina's van charging on through. The Huntresses gasped and yelped in shock while moving out of the way while Thalia ended up next to Artemis. But as the passenger side of the van passed by them in almost slow motion the Goddess and daughter of Zeus caught sight of Evan in the passenger seat clicking his tongue and making a hand gun to which he shot it while clicking his tongue.
Artemis was in shock and Thalia was surprised. Neither of them had seen a Demi-God pull that off since Percy and even then never to that level. Artemis didn't know whether to be impressed or down right furious at such gall from him. Thalia began to back up almost worried how bad of a reaction Artemis will give.
But then Artemis breathed in and calmed herself down. She had to worry about her fallen sisters first… besides it's not like that boy could evade her for long after all he may have a damn good knock off of her bow but she was a huntress no pray has escaped her to this day. After all if she can't track him through the traditional methods there are other ways to track down a difficult pray.
(Scene Break Empire State Building)
"Shit." The figure cursed sensing the demons she had sent out being defeated. She was blasting at the Elevator Door to Olympus and all her attacks did a range of damage none of which was the one she hoped for. Seeing as she was a Demon now she could not enter Olympus through the traditional method so the only other option was to force her way into the god's realm.
Artemis would no doubt be here soon thus she had no choice but to cut her loses for the time being and go for the others instead. Thus she repaired the damage she caused to hide her tracks and thus took her leave. She desired her vengeance but until she can acquire it she had to play it smart. But soon Zeus, Artemis, and the reached Son of Sparda will know her divine wrath. After all there are ways to force the Son of Sparda out of the Underworld and she was knowledgeable on all of them being a demon. Soon the blood of the Sparda Lineage and the blood of the gods will spill and when that happens… her vengeance will be made whole.
