Author's note: This is what wouldn't leave my head after playing DMC 5. It is not a continuation of my old story Crystal Caves. Yes it is an entirely new story. You may recognize some of the characters. There will be some new characters. But this is fic is the results of me listening to Devil Trigger on repeat. also if someone can come up with a title for this fic that would be much appreciated, I am at a loss. It's also perhaps slightly AU.
Chapter 1: (Part 1)
Eighteen year old Patty Lowell, walked into the office of Doctor Shara Hartwood. She spoke to the receptionist. Who told her to sit down and wait for Dr. Hartwood.
After a moment, Shara stepped outside her office and called Patty inside.
She entered the office and sat down on the couch. She looked around the office. It was then that she noticed on Shara’s desk was a picture of someone she recognized. Or at least someone she recognized was in the photo. It was Dante. She was sure of it.
“That photo on your desk,” Patty starting to say.
“The one you’re starring at?” Shara asked.
“Yeah,” said Patty. “How do you know him?”
“Let’s call Dante a good friend,” said Shara. “I could ask you the same question?”
“Well he used to take care of me,” said Patty. “Although sometimes I took care of him, as often as I had to clean up his place.”
“I see,” said Shara.
“Who’s the other guy in the photo?” Patty asked. “I assume the woman is you.”
“That would be a correct assumption,” said Shara. “and his name is Vergil. He’s Dante’s twin brother.”
“He never mentioned having a brother,” said Patty
“Probably ‘cause they’ve never really gotten along,” said Shara.
“Oh,” said Patty.
“They were always fighting even when we were kids,” said Shara.
“Oh,” Patty said again.
“Mhmm,” said Shara.
“Is Vergil your husband?” Patty asked, noticing the pictures of Shara’s kids.
“Nope,” said Shara. “But he is the father of my children.”
“How come you’re not married?” Patty asked.
“Miss Lowell this your therapy session not mine,” said Shara.
“Oh right, sorry,” said Patty.
“It’s alright,” said Shara. “Now why have you come to see me?”
“My mother thought it was a good idea,” said Patty.
“Oh why did she think it was a good idea?” Shara asked.
“She is concerned,” Patty said.
“Why?” Shara asked.
“She says cause I attempted to invite Dante to my birthday party,” said Patty.
“I see,” said Shara. “He declined eh?”
“Yeah,” said Patty. “she is worried I’m like obsessed with him or something?”
“Are you?” Shara asked.
“Am I what?” Patty asked.
“Obsessed with him?” Shara asked.
“No of course not,” said Patty defensively.
“Then why would you invite him to your party?” Shara asked.
“I wanted my friends to meet him,” said Patty. “You know cause I told them about him, about how he took care of me.”
“Oh I see,” said Shara.
“And my friends suck now they are telling me he doesn’t exist,” Patty said.
“He exists alright,” said Shara.
“Yeah I know,” said Patty.
“You know let me call him,” said Shara. She picked up her phone and dialed the number for Dante’s office.
“Devil May Cry,” said a female voice.
“I’m looking for Dante,” said Shara.
“Dante isn’t here now,” said the female voice.
“Oh that’s fine, Have him call me when he is,” said Shara.
“No offense but you’ll be waiting forever,” said the female voice. “He is currently trapped in the underworld with his brother.”
“Oh god sweet god in heaven,” said Shara. “what did Vergil do now?”
“Long story,” said the female voice. “How much time do you have?”
“Not a lot at the moment,” said Shara. “Sorry who am I speaking with?”
“Trish,” said the female voice.
“Hi Trish I don’t know if you remember me, but it’s Shara,” said Shara.
“I figured it was you when you asked what Vergil did,” said Trish.
“Alright,” said Shara “I can come by the office, later.”
“Sounds good,” said Trish.
“Give me about an hour,” said Shara.
“Okay see you then,” said Trish. She hung up.
“Well apparently Dante is unreachable by phone right now as he is in the underworld,” said Shara.
“Why?” Patty asked.
“I don’t know,” said Shara.
