Me: Could it be? Is it possible? Yes! I'm here with a new chapter! *Party poppers go off*

Nero: Where the hell have you been?

Me: A roller coaster which we call life... Yeah, I've actually been really struggling with this chapter, even though I said I had it more or less ready so long ago! Well, I basically lost all that chapter, most of my files including my story plan... Then my laptop had to be sent off... Then Life in general and writers block... TAT I'm so sorry! *Grovels on floor*

Dante: okay, calm down. It's now up and we can continue.

Me: *Jumps up* Indeed. So, me no owney Dmc or charactery aprteh Oc

Nero: And apparently doesn't own a brain either...

Dante: On to the next chapter!

It was dark, no light anywhere. He felt himself start to walk forward until he saw some light. It was only a slither, but he continued to walk closer to it like his feet had a mind of its own, and they did since Nero himself felt anxious getting closer to the light. He felt like the light wasn't a good thing in this situation and he wanted to go back to the darkness where there was nothing for him to fear. As he got closer, he saw that the light was coming from behind a door, with a strange mark on it, like a cross. He just stood there, staring at it like it was some sort of trap. He wasn't sure what to do, so he decided to see if it was perhaps any danger by putting his hand onto it, but he didn't feel anything apart from a small vibration coming from the door. Actually, listening to it, he thought he heard it humming.

"Hello" He asked, but he didn't get a reply he wanted, only the small noise of humming coming from the door and his own slight breaths. The light faded and he was once again left in the darkness. He felt something wrap around his waist something nuzzle into his neck. He tried to turn but the arms held him still as he felt warm breath move up his neck and next to his ear. He was expecting the same word but instead got something he hadn't been expecting. Nothing.

Then he felt something wet and soft slide across his neck, making him shiver and lean into the warm presence that was behind him, a sigh escaping him as he laid there. He felt hands start to travel under his top, a gasp escaping him when they moved over his nipples. He felt soft touches going across his neck, while another hand went lower, and lower until it reached-

Nero groaned, whether it be from the complete shock of being woken up or the fact he was disappointed that he had done so, we may never know as the clock rang its alarm, alerting the teen that he would have a class starting in about an hour so he better get up and ready. Only, when he reached over to stop the noise, he found something warm and hard blocking his body from getting any closer. Still in the world of sleep, he climbed over the object slightly and stopped the ringing, falling back onto the thing. He heard a chuckle and in turn the object moved along with the noise, making him open his eyes in confusion and look up to see the other man looking at him with an amused look. He blinked before his mind caught up with the situation and he went wide and got off of Dante, who was now laughing again.

"Jeez kid, I thought you were morning person since you kicked my ass out of bed yesterday." And once again he found himself on the floor with a glaring Nero looking down at him, although he might have looked a little bit more intimidating had it not been for the blush that was on his cheeks, which just made the Demon think that he looked cute and pouty with adorable bed hair, with a nice naked chest and his boxers just down a little bit. The teen saw the man's eyes go lower down and his cheeks heated more when he saw him lick his lips like Nero was some sort of meat about to be devoured. Not knowing what to do exactly, he picked up the closest thing, which was a pillow, and threw it at the elders face. While Dante was distracted, he quickly got his clothes and went into the bathroom, taking a deep breath to settle himself down. Only for his blush to appear again ten fold when he noticed that lil' Nero had also woken up to greet him. Growling and hitting his head against the bathroom door, he quickly rid his boxers and went into the shower, hissing as he turned the cold water on, but at least it sorted out his morning wood. Turning the water so that it would be warmer, he began to wash himself down until he felt satisfyingly clean and ready to face what ever the day threw at him. He exited the room fully clothed and instantly took back that statement he had just mentally made. Why do you ask? Well, Dante was no longer naked as in one piece of article remaining. Oh no, because that article had seemed to have disappeared and he was presented with the naked body of the demon. Thankfully (or not) Dante had his back to him as he pulled up his leather jeans, going commando. The elder turned around with a smirk on his face, knowing the kid was behind him due to the fact that his heart beat couldn't be missed going that fast and loud, since he had enhanced senses.

"Enjoying the show were ya kid?" He smirked before leaving the room, and a blushing Nero staring in the exact spot the man had been in. Shaking his head out of his stupor, he looked at the clock and his eyes went wide when he had only twenty five minutes to get ready for his lecture. Cursing quite loudly, he grabbed his bag, checking to see if everything was still in there before going out of the room and to see Dante watching TV. Grabbing a banana, he quickly turned to the other male with a stern look.

"No messing things up and if you break anything, I'm kicking your ass." Nero said, opening the door and taking a bite from his fruit. Dante smirked with an eye brow slightly raised

"I bet that's not all you want to do after seeing my ass kid." Said kid choked an the food as he tried to dislodge it from his throat, swallowing thickly as he glared at the man in hysterics on his couch. Not even deeming that comment with a response, he quickly left and headed around campus and arrived at the class. He sighed and was about to go in when something collided from behind him, making him fall through the open door way and flat on his face. The students and teacher looked at the commotion before the students began to laugh while the teacher shook his head in disapproval, but Nero knew exactly who it was before they even said their greeting.

"Hey Bleach Boy! How ya been?" Rey said happily as he got of his friend and then helped him up, raising his hands up in worry as he saw the death glare coming from him. "Easy, easy. Just wanted to say hi, didn't know that you had already opened the door." He said in his defence as they both made their way up to the back row into their usual seats. The teacher continued on with his lecture while Rey decided to catch up with what's been going up with Nero. "So, found out what is haunting you place yet?" He whispered. Nero nodded.

"Yeah, it's a Demon." Well, half anyway, he mentally added on the end. Nero could have laughed out load with how wide his friends mouth opened, his eyes all but bulging out of his sockets as he continued to stare. "Seriously dude, you're gonna attract flies." He chuckled a little, which is all he could do. Oh, how he wished he had a camera, it was comical.

"What the fuck man. You've got a Demon in your place and you're cracking jokes like it's a little more then a pest problem." The red head said, still unable it seemed to get his eyes to go back to their normal size as he continued. "You know what they are like right? They're violent, sneaky and persistent and it won't stop or leave till it's got what it wants. By the way, do you know what it wants by any chance?" Nero paused for a moment, deciding through his head whether it was a good idea to tell him or not. Unsure of what to say, he decided on the truth.

"Yeah, it wants me." The white haired teen said easily with a small shrug. Rey put a hand on his friends shoulder, patting it while looking sad towards him. Nero was confused at what he was doing.

"It was nice knowing ya Bleach, I'm gonna miss you." He said, looking actually quite serious with the emotion on his face, not an ounce of patronization,or mock playing anywhere on his features. This made Nero very nervous now but decided to quell his friends fear by playing it off as nothing serious.

"Come on, nothing bad is going to happen and I'm not gonna be taken away by this Demon, you understand. There is no way on earth that I am going where ever he is going."

"It's a dude! Holy Christ man, it probably wants to eat ya!" Not to far from the truth I guess. Nero thought while the teacher scolded Rey for disrupting his class with such blasphemous language. Rey didn't ask any more questions after that, which Nero was thankful for and started dotting down notes for an apparent test that was happening next week, not like he was afraid of failing or anything, but it was better safe than sorry. Once class was over, all the students left the place and Rey quickly caught up with Nero. "Hey, where you heading off to? Surely your not going back to your place with that thing in there are you?" Nero was about to answer when someone for the second time that day tackled into the back of him, but he didn't fall as he saw the face of a happy brunette on his shoulder. The red head looked at him, then at the girl as she giggled, then back to him with a small all knowing smirk on his face, which Nero knew fully what it meant.

"No Rey, this isn't what you think. Lucy and I-" But he was cut of as Rey held up a hand and shook his head.

"Say no more, Nero my friend. I understand completely. I noticed you two paling around more then usual, and it's all good. I' going to head back to my dorm and give you two some personal time together." He winked at Lucy before he walked pass them, both watching as he left before Lucy looked at Nero confused

"Neh, why was hot head acting weird?" She asked, completely oblivious to the fact Nero was silently fuming. He sighed before answering.

"He thinks we are going out. Now can you please get off me." He said and the female nodded and got down, still smiling at him, who seemed a little ticked off. She frowned before turning from where she was and coming back with two cups of coffee and all was forgiven as he gave a small smile of thanks to her. They both went to Nero's face and saw Dante on the couch, controller in hand as he continued to play the game of Mortal Kombat, if the 'Finish him' was anything to go by. Lucy being completely at ease with the half human, sat down beside him and watched him play, tilting her head to the side and taking a sip of her coffee.

"Press left, left, square, then right plus triangle." Lucy ordered and quick fingers pressed the buttons and performed an awesome combo which left the opponent limbless. "Not bad old timer, but I doubt you couldn't match my skills." The man turned to her with a raised eye brow of disbelief, while Nero was sporting one of shock as he thought his friend was crazy for challenging him like that, not to mention the taunting. Just to add more surprise, Dante handed her the other remote and went onto the verses menu.

"Don't be crying now when I wipe the floor with ya little miss." He smirked as he chose his character, Lucy looking over them and picking one of her favourite characters, both staring intently at the screen as the battle music began to play. Nero stood behind the couch as he watched both of the people on screen beginning to fight, each dodging and landing their own hits while receiving damage from the other, both seemed relentless to lose. He didn't know much about Dante, but he could probably tell that his pride wouldn't allow his to be defeated so easily and if he knew Lucy, she had the stubbornness of an mule with a pride of a guys to go with it. Each won a battle, meaning that this match would decide who the victor was. The air was filled with clicking of buttons, screams of pain, spurts of blood and metal passing flesh. Both were on their last inch of life before Dante pulled the move the brunette had told him and finishing the duel, Lucy's mouth agape as she saw that she had lost and to someone who hadn't probably played on the damn game long. An idea clicked in her head as she turned to the silent observer behind them, making a puppy dog face and handing him the remote.

"Nero, you must avenge me, for I don't believe my pride shall stay much longer with this wound." Dante was trying not to laugh at the girl with the teen looked confused. "Please Nero, you must defeat him, so that I can rest easy knowing he can be defeated." Nero sighed and took the remote from the now beaming girl and sat in her place as she moved to sit on the arm. However, she had made it so he had to sit closer to the Demon then what he may have liked. The teen focused on picking a character, while Dante looked at how close they were then up to the brunette, who gave a smile and a wink, which was all the confirmation he needed. After picking their characters, the battle music once again commenced as the both began to play, battle cries and punches flying around.

After about something of three hours where Dante and Nero had battled like there was no tomorrow, they were at the tie breaker, this one deciding who was the champion of the world, (Or Nero's apartment) both life bars clinging on by a thread, one hit from the opponent and it would be over, all occupants at the edge of their seat as the battle continued, Nero unleashing his special only for it to be blocked at the last second by Dante, who in turn tried to try the combo Lucy had showed him, only for Nero's character to jump out of the way. No one paid any attention to the fact the sunny weather had changed to a storm in matter of moments, to engrossed by the action. Well, that was until the storm decided that it wanted to be noticed and with a powerful boom of thunder, lightning struck and power was out, leaving the three occupants to stare dumbly at the blank TV screen, both males having a similar expression on their faces at the fact they no longer had a battle to see who would be the best at Mortal Kombat.

"Well, looks like the power is out... I guess I'm gonna miss my documentary on the Pharaohs of the 4th dynasty."Lucy commented, standing up to head over to the kitchen and look to find any candles and matches. "And you guys have to settle at a draw." She smiled, lighting a small candle with a match to see them look at her like she had just insulted a giant thug on the street. You know the look, the Are-you-out-of-your-freaking-mind look "What?"

"No way! I was about to beat him!" Nero protested, standing up and waving an arm about frantically before pointing at Dante. "He wouldn't be able to block it in time and I would have won! You saw that right? The win should have gone to me." the teen finished, until Dante also stood up, a disapproving look on his features.

"Not a chance kid, if ya had noticed, I still had my special which is a counter, meaning as soon as you tried to punch me, I would have gotten ya and on the floor before you even realized it, meaning I win, right Lucy?" Dante smiled, Lucy taking a step back with the candle not wanting to get involved with the boys argument which may end pretty badly, since both seemed unwilling to except it as a draw. They are very similar, it's kinda scary, but cute at the same time! Lucy thought until she realized she was cornered by the winning complex people. Deciding to distract herself, she got some more candles and started placing the around the room so that the two males would be able to see okay until the power turned back on.

"You both were on the same amount of health, so that means that it was a draw until the power goes back on and you two can fight each other again." She said, moving in between them to get away "Or you could have your own little fight to see who's better." She had said in a joking manner until she saw the look on both of there faces, looking between them as they turned to each other with an intent in their eyes which meant they thought her suggestion was a good one. "No! I didn't mean it! Stop or I shall take the playstation away for a week if you can't behave and act immature like little kids."

"Sorry Mother." Nero said in a sarcastic manner, earning a chuckle from Dante until he saw the girl launch at Nero, knocking him to the floor, both seeming surprised, until she got up, dusted herself off and went to head out. "If I was your Mother, I would have brought you up to not be beaten by girl." She laughed before leaving the room. Dante was still laughing while Nero sat up, glaring at the part demon.

"She's got you there!" Dante smirked, just able to block Nero as he flew at him with a fist, grabbing it and bringing their faces closer, Nero glaring while Dante was smirking. "You looking to play kid?" he asked with humour, a twinkle in his eye at the double meaning behind those words and by looking at the younger male, he could see that the other had got it also.

"You're sick old man!" He shouted, pulling his arm back to try and get out of Dante's grip, but he let go, making the student spin and lose his footing before he landed on the sofa, the demon their smirking as he leaned down slightly and moved his hands, a taunt of 'come on' made Nero once again launch at him, both exchanging blows while Dante wasn't going hard on the human boy, not wanting to mess up that pretty face of his, plus it would ruin his chances with him. So, he let Nero get a few hits and he delivered some of his own, till the Demon decided enough was enough and flipped the boy over in a throw, making him land hard on the floor. He was about to get up, when he felt a wait on his body, seeing that the older male had him pinned to the floor. Both were panting slightly, the teen more then the demon but still, he was impressed.

"You cooled off kid?" Dante asked, seeing Nero turn his face away so that his hair could hide his emotion. He knew that he wouldn't really have a chance at the demon, but he wanted to try anyway, maybe showing that if he could, then he could get him to leave, or at least stop molesting and taunting him. Speaking of molesting, one of Dante's hands seemed to have wondered a little lower then it needs to be. The teen tried to reach to get him to stop, but found both his hands were pinned over his head. How in the- When did he do that! He struggled against the grip, but t was iron and he couldn't even get his wrists a little free. But the hand only rested on his hip, not moving anywhere where else.

"What are you doing?" Nero glared, hoping to get the message across that he wasn't all to pleased with this position, but if the elder noticed, he didn't show I, smiling down at the teen. The smile unnerved him, making him restart his struggles, especially when the other was slowly advancing on him. "Back of old man! I mean it! If you don't let me go I'll-" he couldn't finish his threat as a pair of lips silenced him, making his mind going blank and cease his struggles. The hand which was previously on his hip was moving up until it reached his chest, where he gently rubbed the clothed body. Nero could feel himself being slowly swept away again, his eyes becoming half lidded before fully closing as he opened his mouth to gasp when Dante bit his lower lip and invaded his mouth. The teen would be lying if he said the demon wasn't an amazing kisser, but that was a problem. It's a demon, who purely wanted him for lust and he would be damned (quite literally) if he was going to be messed about. With that in mind, he moved his leg and kicked the man where it hurt the most, making him groan and roll off him, curling into a fatal position.

"What the hell kid! We were only just getting started!" He groaned, while a blushing Nero stood up and dusted himself off, glaring down at the demon with a sense of pride in what he had done to the demon, thinking he had finally got the upper hand on this odd agreement that he defiantly knew he didn't agree to. He turned away to go to the kitchen, thinking he had won, only to be pounced on, hearing a growl coming from behind him as arms wrapped around his waist. Oh, fuck.

"What, not even an offer to kiss I better? You really are a mean kid." He heard him say, feeling his breath tickle the back of his neck sending small unwanted shivers down his spine, which apparently didn't go unnoticed by Dante, he chuckled. He could feel him moving his lips along his neck, touching a sensitive part making his gasp, repressing a small moan at the sudden feeling. The older male stopped to look and was curious to see a strange looking thing on the back of Nero's neck. "What's this kid? Body paint?"

"You know, the next time you call me kid, I'm castrating you in your sleep. And no, it's not body paint, it's a birth mark stupid." He almost growled, not one to get something stupid like that. If he was going to get some body art, he would get a tattoo but he had never gotten the chance to actually look for something hat took his fancy.

"Oh, it just looks like a rose, that's all." Dante said in his defence, letting go of Nero and moving away to sit back on the couch, not seeming phased by the threat that had once again been presented to him. Did nothing Nero say ever worry him in the slightest? Was it basically because he was a human that he could just let it roll off his back like it was nothing? It made Nero's blood boil, but it wasn't like he could really do anything about it since as the fight had proven, he wasn't much of a match for the elder demon and he could tell he was going easy as well, which was the biggest hit to his pride. The teen went to sit on the sofa as well, both males just relaxing since there was nothing else to do till the power went out.

"Why are you even here?" Nero asked suddenly, wondering why the other male just didn't go out somewhere while the power was out or terrorise some poor people for fun since nothing was happening here. Also, why did he want him so much? Surely there are other people out there that could get the guys fancy and with a body like that, he wouldn't have to work so hard. He mentally slapped himself for that. Yes he was attractive, yes he was bi and yes if circumstances were different (Dante being fully human instead of partly) then he might well consider going out with him... Maybe.

"I'll assume you mean why am I after you right?" He asked, seeing the teen nod once. "Well, because, there's something about you that I like. Actually, I've been around in your place for quite some time, just watching now and again, not permanent like now." He could see the Nero's face turn into a scowl and about to say something but Dante quickly cut him off "No, nothing like that. Now, the reason I never actually made myself known was because you had that chick with you more or less all the time and I didn't want to get in the way of that."

"But as soon as she's gone you thought you could jump right in, is that it?" He asked bitterly, feeling hurt but not understanding why. Didn't he already know that Dante just wanted him for his body and nothing more?

"No! Nero, you looked so sad and I couldn't bare to see that. So I thought I could distract you. You being angry at me was better then you being depressed and spiralling downwards." The teen looked at him, searching his eyes for any hint of lie or dishonesty, but they were so sincere that he couldn't help but believe that what Dante was saying was the truth. He could feel his heart beating a little faster at this. Dante had tried to look after him in a weird, twisted and highly perverted way, but it had worked. In fact, he hasn't thought much of Kyrie since Dante appeared.

"Why?" That was Nero's next thing. Why would a demon want to look after a human who is weaker then he is. Dante blinked, surprised to hear that considering he thought it was self explanatory in the last answer.

"Because I like you and there's something that has caught my attention about you, which, trust me is no easy feat. Maybe it's because you look like me or you remind me of me when I was younger, or something else. But I feel possessive over you and it's not something I can ignore so easily."

"So, that's why you stalked me." Nero smirked, wanting to get out of the whole serious turn this conversation had headed with feelings and stuff. He didn't want to stay there otherwise he may say something he doesn't mean and get into a load of trouble for it.

"I prefer to use the term, servailence." He corrected with a grin. That's where the conversation died and with a stroke of luck, the power came back on, the lights and TV turning back on along with some other electronics dotted around the apartment. "So kid, you up for another round to see who is truly he master?"

"What did I tell you about calling me kid old man? For that, I'm not going easy on you any more." Nero retorted, turning on the machine and waited while the loading screen came on.

"Whatever you say." Dante said more to himself, before they both picked their characters and began their fight like the conversation had never happened and all was back to normal. Well, as normal as it can get.

Me: Well, that's the end of that chapter... Yeah, put quite a bit of information in there about Dante... Stalker ¬¬

Dante: Hey! You made me that way.

Nero: Pervert

Me: Now my lovely patient people who I adore so very much! You have a choice of how this story goes! You have two options, but I'm not going to tell you what they are! MWAHAHAHAA!

Dante+Nero: *Back away slowly*

Me: Ah, yes well... *coughs* When you review, I want you to either put the number 1 in or the number 2. These are the choices and since I can no longer follow a story plan, I give you the option of what happens! Think of it as an apology gift thingy! But, I thought it would be no fun to do that. Also, if you don't even really review, just send one with a number on it of either 1 or 2. The one with the most vote will be the one I go with! Also, thanks to Nefarious Seraph 13 for the summary, which is soo much better then mine XD

Dante: Until we meet again!

Nero: Byebye!
