RISE OF THE LADY OVERKILL
Chapter 1.
The scarlet sun rose over Dante's shop. He awoke not to the sun but to the shrike cacophony of battle sounds. He jumped out of bed and rushed out in his pyjamas, rebellion in hand. When he entered the street, nothing was there, absolutely nothing. The entire street had disappeared "Holy crap" Dante said as he looked into the neverending precipice a few steps away.
He was about to go inside when the phone rang. "Sorry can't get to ya pal" Dante said as he picked up.
"I know, but I can get you"
"What!?"
"I can get to you"
"That's not what you said, who are you anyhow?"
The phone hung up.
Out of nowhere several demons descended on him, using rebellion he cut one's head off and lobbed it at another, parrying another blow, going to reposte and then ducked under a scythe which inadvertantly decapitiated the one Dante had just parried against.
Several more dropped in Dante took a revolver with quicksilver bullets that he'd been saving for weird-like-you-don't-know-what weird situations.
He threw it in the air with rebellion, jumped after them and then swan-dived on the remaining adversaries , sending them back to hell with a ton of lead.
"Ha, you'd sure better know how to fight better than them" Dante began to gloat over his victory.
"Half breed" said the voice on the phone, it wasn't in hell speak but there was something about this guys voice that wasn't right.
An apparition happened in front of him and it said, it's voice somewhere in between melancholic and spiteful. "You shall not interfere this time Dante!" My might regathered, my armies multipled and every weak member of my militia has been downgraded, I'd have thought better of your pathetic brother. Do you want to know what happened, he begged my forgiveness. Mwahahahahaha. Begged like a dog. Now you shall fear this devil's power. I am now ultimate, prepare to face the full power of Mundus, your father's corpse made an excellent conduit for my return and the power, it's beyond anything you've evr seen and when I combine it with my own... well use your imagination. The world will be painted black with my dark eyes and red with the blood of you and the apathetic humans you endear so. "
"First of all, you do that cheesy laugh again and your death will be painful Mundus, second, you insult my family and possess my father's body, that's the last straw, let's go!"
"All in good time, my diminutive friend, first we'll see if you can repel this force, it's ten thousand times in number and in strength to the force Sparda unexpectedly repelled, just for you and you are only half Sparda. You will not make it through to the end this time Dante. Just like in chess Dante, all of my pawns have reached the end of the board, now my ranks are filled with queens, did you seriously think we were even?"
"Size of an army doesn't matter, it's how the commander leads his troops, if you hide in the shadows, Mundus, you'll lose again. So be it, I'm coming!"
Dante threw himself into the precipice to embrace the sport of demon hunting, once again.
