Hey everybody! Well, here is the long awaited Chapter 5!! I'm sorry it's
so short. I'll try my best to continue and make the chapters longer. I
would like to dedicate this chapter to all my reviewers. Once again, thank
you all for your support!
Chapter 5
Dante stumbled as the trio reappeared in a dark room. The rush of the transportation had a dizzying effect on him but he soon recovered. Buffy gently messaged her temples.
"So.what's the message?" Dante asked Nelo Angleo.
"Follow me." Nelo Angelo dragged Buffy along with him as he exited the room, Dante following behind them.
A few torches dimly lit the room they entered. Even though they were in some sort of cave the place looked halfway decent. There were elegantly carved chairs set around a small round table and red lengths of cloth were draped on different places on the rocky walls.
"Nice place, Angelo. Very homey," Buffy said as she struggled to get free again.
"He doesn't live here, I do," came a voice from the back of the room.
Dante pulled out Ebony but a look from Nelo Angelo made him lower his arm to his side. "Who are you?" he asked.
A woman in her early twenties stepped from the shadows. Her dark brown hair was waist-length and she had very pale skin. The fabric of her scarlet dress whispered quietly as she approached.
She looked at Nelo Angelo and said, "Vergil, let her go, please."
He loosened his grip and Buffy twisted away from his reach. Dante grabbed her arm and pushed her behind him. He raised his pistol again and pointed it at the woman.
"You don't want to do that, Dante," she said. She made a small motion with her hand. Dante grunted as he fought to keep his arm up, but he lost and his arm fell to his side.
"You're a witch," Buffy said as she stood beside Dante.
"Yes, I am. My name is Lilith."
"What do you want with me?" asked Dante.
"I would like to ask you to join me, Dante. Your skills could help me greatly."
"Join you? Are you nuts? Why would I want to join you?"
Lilith smirked. "Because if you don't, you will die. If you come with me, you will live forever and rule over all the Hells."
Dante cocked an eyebrow. Buffy stirred by his side. "Just what are you planning to do?"
Lilith laughed. "Do you really expect me to tell you little girl? You shouldn't even be here. Virgil, bring her to me."
The Dark Knight teleported over to Buffy, grabbed her arm, and teleported next to Lilith. "Hey! Let go of me!" Buffy struggled in Virgil's iron grip.
Dante snarled and pulled out Ebony again. He aimed it at Lilith's head. "Let.her.go," he demanded harshly. "She has nothing to do with this."
Lilith smiled again. Dante was starting to really HATE that smile. "Well, well.what is this? I think you've gone soft Dante. Caring for a human's life even though you barely know her. Hmmm." She tapped her chin thoughtfully.
"I'll give you a choice Dante. Either you join with me or this girl dies."
Dante answered by firing his pistol. The bullet sped through the air, to Lilith's head. Suddenly an opaque light enveloped Lilith, deflecting the bullet. The shield disappeared as quickly as it had appeared.
"Now, now Dante. Don't lose your temper. I'll even give you an hour's time to think about your answer," said Lilith as she smirked upon seeing Dante's stunned expression.
Before Dante could reply in any way, Lilith snapped her fingers and he disappeared in brilliant flash of red light.
"Dante!!" screamed Buffy. "What did you do? Where is he?"
Lilith ignored her questions and turned her attention to Nelo Angelo. "Virgil, make sure our guest is made.comfortable." Virgil nodded his head then teleported out of the room along with Buffy.
Lilith gracefully walked over to one of her chairs and sat down. She smiled at no one in particular. "Dante.I will have you.one way or another. But before I make you mine, I think I'll have a little fun." Her evil laughter filled the red room.
Dante landed with a thud. Without thinking, he rolled to his feet and pulled out his twin pistols. His jaw fell slack when he looked around. He was back in Buffy's front yard. He put his guns away.
"Dante!" someone called behind him. He turned and was met by the anxious faces of Buffy's friends. Dawn was the one that had called out his name.
They ran to his side. "Dante, what happened? Where's Buffy?" Giles asked.
"They're keeping her prisoner," he answered numbly.
"Who? Who is keeping her prisoner?" asked Xander.
".Nelo Angelo and Lilith."
"Is she alright?" Dawn asked, her face a perfect example of worry.
Dante looked down at the girl's face and couldn't help but feel a tinge of regret. "I don't think they'll hurt. They still need her to get to me."
"What are you talking about?" Willow asked.
"Nelo Angelo took us somewhere to meet a really strong witch named Lilith. She wants me to join her. She's given me an hour to decide if I'm going to join her or not. They're holding Buffy prisoner to get to me."
Everyone was silent, except for Spike. "Well, what are you going to do?"
Dante slowly headed to the house. "I.I don't know."
