QE:Wrote this ages ago.
Evestar:Only recently found it.
E.S.P:Never trust little kids.
QE:We own nothing.
Cyndaquil:Not yet anyway.
After taking on and defeating the Prince of Darkness and Sealing the gates of hell. Not counting the amount Demon's defeated between then and now and bagging the girl, you would think there was nothing he could not do. That's what he thought until he gave Eva a day off from looking after Dante and Vergil. Big mistake. Mainly cause he wasn't allowed to let them get hurt. She would actually kill him. Eva was not the angel everyone sees her as; she is pretty lethal with a knife. She was also pretty the rest of the time.
"DADDDDDDDDDDDD." He looked down at one of his sons. He still could not tell them apart and they are four now. "Vergil says the monster under the bed wants to eat me." Dante.
Sparda blinked twice. "Why are you covered in flour?"
"We want cookies." Dante said matter of fact like.
"But it's ten o'clock." Sparda said slightly annoyed.
"We want COOKIES." Dante said smiling.
Sparda sighed. "Bed." Pointing towards their bedroom.
"But the Monster wants to eat me." Dante cried. "I don't want to be eaten."
He grabbed Dante, careful not to get much flour over his favorite purple jacket and walked into the bathroom with the giggling bundle. He pointed at the sink. "Wash your face I'll get you clean clothes."
"OK." Dante smiled and jumped on the toilet lid to reach properly.
He walked into his son's room to see Vergil crashed out under his covers on the bed nearest to the window. "That was mean."
The bundle sighed and rolled over.
He grabbed a set of clothes and walked out again. He was not in the mood to argue or move Vergil. Dante would just have to do it himself. Sparda walked into the bathroom and blinked. In less than five minutes not only had Dante soaked the entire room but released fruit smelling liquids out of their bottles most of them up the wall. Dante was still covered in flour.
"I am not going to ask." He stated grabbing a cloth and wiping his youngest son's face.
"Ask what?" He said all so innocently.
Deciding it was safer he made Dante get changed with him still in the room. No telling what he would get up to and carried him into his room and plonk him on Vergil's bed. "Sleep."
"But the monster."
"There is no monster under your bed. I would have already got him." Sparda said matter of fact.
"That's because it's under Vergil's bed."
He sighed and checked under the bed. Nope. Nothing.
"Right. There is no monster under the bed. Now go to sleep while I clean up the mess in the kitchen and bathroom." He stated and walked out the room.
"Dad."
"What?" Sparda growled.
"Can you leave the door open please and the hallway light on?" Dante asked quietly.
"Yes."

Two hours cleaning up after Dante, Sparda finally sat down in the living room. Eva was sat in his chair reading a book. He was too tired to argue so sat in the other one.
"Hi." Eva smiled looking up from the book. "And how was your day?"
Sparda growled under his breath he was just too tired.
"You do know Dante will be up again in less than five minutes. Vergil will try and kill him a minute later." She smiled returning to her book.
"Dad." Dante called from behind the living room door.
Sparda glared at the door. He couldn't help himself.
Eva stood up. "Dante go grab a sword and meet me in your bed room." She smiled sweetly at her husband. "See you in a minute." She walked off after their son.
He tried to get his head around how a Human, Eva, could have full control over two half demon, Dante and Vergil, where he, a demon, failed. Deciding he was just too tired to care anymore he drifted off to the sounds of Vergil screaming at his brother and something along the lines "It's the Demon hit it."
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9
Something poked him. Growled in frustration and poked again. He groggily opened his eyes to see one of his son's; He had no idea which, sitting on his stomach.
"Mother said breakfast is ready." Vergil. He noted.
"OK. I'm up." He said waving his hand. He watched as Vergil got off the chair and walked into the kitchen.
He followed pursuit looking at the clock above the mantelpiece. It was two o'clock in the afternoon. He shook his head and walked into the kitchen.
Both boys were quiet. Which he failed to do. Dante was happily icing the gingerbread men were as Vergil was reading the recipe book. Yesterday they were fighting viscously and there was still a huge dent in the cupboard where Dante had kicked Vergil in an attempt to get away. They did not stop until he had to physically pin them to the floor.
"Here you go." Eva pushed a bowl of cereal in front of him.
He smiled and watched the kids. Unable to believe that they were the same kids he had yesterday. Maybe Eva swapped them to punish him for something he could not remember.
"Dante!" Vergil screamed. Icing dripped off his face. Yep it was them.
Eva quickly stood between them. Sparda was slightly shocked. They could seriously hurt her. "Dante do you want icing on your face?"
"No." Dante hung his head. "But Vergil wouldn't give me the chocolate drops."
She turned to Vergil. "They are next to the moron."
"Oh yeah." Dante smiled before turning to his weird decoration.
"Why didn't you tell him?" She asked hands on her hips.
"Because he's a moron."
"No gingerbread men for you then." She said before turning to the pots on the hob.
"But...but." Vergil cried.
"Here you go." Dante grinned, handing Vergil a pinkie red mess, with a strawberry on.
Vergil took it carefully and looked it over before giving Dante a smile. "Thank you."
Dante's smile got slightly bigger before returning to creating a mess.
"Pizza's done guys." Eva smiled. Receiving a shudder from Vergil and himself. She carefully placed two pizzas out on the side and retrieved a third from the fridge. The third one has strawberry sundae ice cream toppings. Vergil must have done that one. Dante preferred chocolate. He only ate the ice cream so he could be like his older brother.
"So what was the demon from last night?" He asked groggily.
Eva gave him a slightly confused but cute look before realising he'd been a sleep all day. "I'll get him."
Sparda gave a confused look then hit the ceiling as a small fuzzy thing was placed in his face.
"His name's Monster." Dante said matter of fact. Vergil just glared at it.
Monster was a fluffy black rat.
"Why is it still here?" Sparda asked challenging his other half.
"So Dante will stop being scared of rats." She smiled.
Both ignore Dante as he fetched a small plate for Monster and placed a gingerbread mouse on it. "Here you go Monster." Dante smiled picking him up from his mother's hands and placing him at the table.
"You might get some sleep tonight honey." Eva smiled and ruffled Dante's hair. "And you might sleep all night." She shot a smile at Vergil, who by all rights was still glaring at Monster. "And don't worry I took him to the animal doctor and had him checked over." Eva had a way of calming her entire family's fears.
"Pizza time." She smiled walking over to dish them out.
Sparda happily carried on eating his cereal until Vergil dropped a bomb shell.
"You do know you said you'll take us to the zoo tomorrow."
Eva smiled. She wasn't going.
QE:Ah childhood memories.
Evestar:Yup.
E.S.P:You see that review button you know you want to be really nice and say hi.
