Chapter 4 - Mission 04: Devil Trigger

Location: Hell

Area: Stolas's Mansion

(Sub-Text): Six months later

Dante was walking in the hall, until he saw Octavia who is now a teenager listening to music from her smartphone while walking.

DANTE:

Hello, Octavia.

Octavia saw Dante and took her earphones off.

OCTAVIA:

Oh. Hi, Dante.

DANTE:

You look different today. Last time I saw you, you look like a princess.

OCTAVIA:

That's because I've went to Stylish Occult and I'm still a princess. This is who I am now.

Dante noticed his cousin was depressed.

DANTE:

You sound depressed. Are you okay?

OCTAVIA:

I'm fine, Dante. It's got nothing to do with you.

DANTE:

Well, you are listening to some sad songs. Why don't you listen to Celldweller. He did add his songs in Dead Rising 2 & 3.

OCTAVIA:

I don't play those games anymore and I don't want to listen to Celldweller.

DANTE:

I see. Anyway, I'm looking for your dad. He has something belongs to my dad.

OCTAVIA:

He's in his room, but I wouldn't go in there if I were you.

DANTE:

Why not?

OCTAVIA:

You won't like what you'll see.

Dante looked confused, while Octavia put on her earphones and left him alone.

DANTE:

What does she mean by that?

While Dante was about to open his uncle's bedroom door, he heard some moaning coming from the other side.

DANTE:

Uncle Stolas? Are you alright?

Dante opened the door and entered the room. He looked shocked when he saw Blitzo making out with Stolas in bed.

STOLAS (Passionately):

Oh, Blitzy! Yes! Yes! Yes!

Blitzo gave Stolas a passionate kiss, until he saw Dante watching them.

BLITZO:

Shit. Someone's in the room.

Stolas looked surprised when he saw Dante.

STOLAS:

Dante! What are you doing?

Blitzo introduced himself to Dante.

BLITZO:

Hi, Dante. I'm Blitzy. I'm your uncle's friends who.... likes to make his dick wet.

Dante didn't look happy to see Blitzo.

DANTE:

I don't give a shit.

Dante walked away and left the room. Blitzo and Stolas looked worried.

BLITZO:

Is he gonna tell on us?

STOLAS:

I don't think so.

Area: Paradise (Sparda's Summer House):

The next day in the living room, Sparda was interviewing Mrs. Mayberry and reading her resume.

SPARDA:

Okay. It said in the living world, you were a school teacher at the Puppies Junior School, you love teaching kids to sing and you committed suicide after you killed your husband for cheating on you in front of your students. So, how did you become a teacher, Mrs. Mayberry?

MRS. MAYBERRY:

When my parents didn't want to do anything with me, I've learned to take care of myself when I was four. My school teacher, Mrs. Honeybee adopted me after my parents abandoned me. She taught me anything I need to know. That's how I became a teacher.

SPARDA:

So, were you born with telekinesis?

MRS. MAYBERRY:

No! I'm not like that little girl from the man who wrote books about a giant peach and a fucking chocolate factory!

Sparda chuckled.

SPARDA:

Sorry, I was just wondering. So, what did you do outside the school in the living world?

MRS. MAYBERRY:

Well, I read books, watch T.V, play video games like Resident Evil and... Oh, and I also answer the phone.

Sparda smiled.

SPARDA:

Great! That's the job. Welcome aboard. But we haven't opened our business yet. My son already got the name for it, now what we need is an advertisement. Your room is rent-free and I would like to say, it's so nice to see you again.

Sparda and Mrs. Mayberry shook hands.

MRS. MAYBERRY:

Thank you, Sparda and it's nice to see you again too. But I never realised that you're really a demon.

SPARDA:

Yeah, I couldn't tell you before.

MRS. MAYBERRY:

So, where is my star pupil?

Sparda and Mrs. Mayberry saw Dante walking downstairs.

SPARDA:

Morning, Dante! Did you sleep well, son?

DANTE:

Isn't that a stupid question, Dad?

Sparda noticed that his son didn't look happy, then he introduced him to Mrs. Mayberry.

SPARDA:

Uh, I would like you to meet our receptionist.

Dante looked at Mrs. Mayberry.

DANTE:

Who the hell are you?

MRS. MAYBERRY:

Dante? It's me, Mrs. Mayberry.

Dante didn't recognize her.

DANTE:

My school teacher? No!

SPARDA:

Dante, when a human goes to Hell, they become Sinner Demons. And Mrs. Mayberry here killed herself after she murdered her husband for cheating on her.

DANTE:

Yeah, I heard about that. And committing suicide is a sin and...

Dante looked surprised and he recognized his old school teacher.

DANTE:

Mrs. Mayberry!

Dante and Mrs. Mayberry happily hugged each other.

DANTE:

Oh, my God! It's been ten years! I didn't recognize you with your white hair, your horns and your demon tail.

Mrs. Mayberry pinched Dante's cheeks happily.

MRS. MAYBERRY:

Oh, my favourite student is all grown up! How's my little pet?

Dante looked embarrassed.

DANTE:

I'm not five anymore!

MRS. MAYBERRY:

Oh, come on. You've always like helping me at school. And I'll never forget it.

(Flashback Sequence)

(Sub-text): Fifteen years ago

Location: Puppies Junior School

Area: Mrs. Mayberry's Classroom

Mrs. Mayberry was giving a star sticker to Dante.

MRS. MAYBERRY:

Dante, you've been helping me a lot since your first day and I would like to announce that you are my star pupil!

All the children who were sitting at their desks, applauded to Dante, except Vergil. Dante smiled and hugged Mrs. Mayberry.

DANTE (Five Years Old):

Thanks, Mrs. Mayberry! You're my favourite teacher!

Vergil scoffed at his brother.

VERGIL (Five Years Old):

Well, if she's your favourite teacher, why don't you just fuck her like you wanna do to your secret hellhound.

Dante looked embarrassed, while the children was laughing at him.

DANTE (Five Years Old):

Vergil, stop embarrassing me!

Mrs. Mayberry calmed Dante down.

MRS. MAYBERRY:

Don't worry, Dante. I'll handle this.

Mrs. Mayberry smiled as she walked up to Vergil.

MRS. MAYBERRY:

Vergil, you've been rude since your first day. Your grades are low, you've been bulling other children, including your brother and you've been corrupting their little minds. So, I would like to announce that... (Yelling): YOU'RE FUCKING EXEPELLED!!!

Mrs. Mayberry looked angry at Vergil, while he smiled.

VERGIL (Five Years Old):

Fine! I never like this shithole. It's full of sissy kids anyway. You're going to Hell, bitch. And I hope your husband fucks a succubus.

Vergil got out of his desk and left the classroom.

(Present Day Sequence)

Location: Hell

Area: Paradise (Sparda's Summer House)

Mrs. Mayberry looked embarrassed.

MRS. MAYBERRY:

I almost got fired for swearing to a student. But after your brother was expelled, you've explained to all of my students about corruption.

DANTE:

Yeah, I did. But you don't have to worry about my brother. He's not coming to Hell. He killed my mum and...

MRS. MAYBERRY:

I know. Your father told me and I'm so sorry. But at least you can see her at Heaven. I know I can't because of God's law.

DANTE:

Yeah. But I'm not ready to see her. Not yet.

Dante looked sad, while he sat on the couch. Sparda and Mrs. Mayberry were worried about him.

SPARDA:

What's a matter, son? Are you alright?

DANTE:

No, I'm not, Dad. When I was at the palace yesterday finding that missing page from your journal, I saw my uncle having sex with an imp named Blitzy.

Mrs. Mayberry looked shocked.

MRS. MAYBERRY:

You didn't kill him, did you?

DANTE:

No, of course not.

Mrs. Mayberry was relieved.

MRS. MAYBERRY:

Oh, thank God!

SPARDA:

Did you manage to get that page?

DANTE:

No, I've just left the palace and I'm worried about Aunt Stella. As long as she doesn't find out, my uncle can get away with it. I mean what am I saying? This is Hell. He can do whatever he wants. What's the worst that can happen.

Mrs. Mayberry looked worried.

MRS. MAYBERRY:

Something tells me you shouldn't have said that.

DANTE:

Why?

Dante, Sparda and Mrs. Mayberry heard someone banging on the front door four times.

SPARDA:

I'll get it.

Sparda went to the front door, opened it and he looked surprised when he saw Stella.

SPARDA:

Why, Stella! What a surprise!

STELLA (Angrily):

Get out of my fucking way!

Stella angrily pushed Sparda away and went inside. Sparda closed the front door and turned to Stella.

SPARDA:

Are you okay?

STELLA (Angrily):

Am I okay? I just found out your brother was sleeping with an imp in my fucking bed!

Sparda looked scared while he was trying to calm Stella down.

SPARDA:

Okay, just calm down!

STELLA (Angrily):

Calm down? You don't tell me to calm down!

Dante and Mrs. Mayberry saw Sparda and Stella arguing.

MRS. MAYBERRY:

Who is that?

DANTE:

That's Stella. She's the Princess of Hell and my aunt.

MRS. MAYBERRY:

I didn't realise.

Dante got up from the couch and walked up to his aunt.

DANTE:

Aunt Stella?

STELLA (Angrily):

Fuck off!

Stella looked surprised and embarrassed because she yelled to Dante.

STELLA:

Oh, Dante! I didn't see you there. How's my favourite nephew?

DANTE:

I'm fine. But why you're so angry?

Stella looked calm and sad.

STELLA:

There's something you need to know. Your uncle has been cheating on me with an imp.

Dante didn't look surprised.

DANTE:

Well, you're not the only one who found out.

Stella gasped.

STELLA:

You found out? When?

DANTE:

Yesterday. Well, first I've been hearing him moaning in his room every once a month, then I found out why yesterday. I couldn't tell you before because I didn't want you to get mad at me.

Stella looked shocked and felt sad.

STELLA:

Oh, you poor baby!

Stella smothered Dante.

STELLA:

I'll never be mad at you, darling! You should've told me.

Stella stopped smothering Dante and looked at him.

STELLA:

Does anyone else know about this?

Dante looked at his dad who is worried and he lied to his aunt.

DANTE:

No. Just me.

Stella felt relieved.

STELLA:

Oh, thank God!

SPARDA:

Well, I'll leave you two alone, while I'll go show our guest to her room.

Sparda whispered to his son.

SPARDA (Whispering):

Dante, your aunt seems calmer when she's with you. So, try to cheer her up.

DANTE:

Okay, Dad.

While Sparda and Mrs. Mayberry went upstairs, Dante helped his aunt sit on the couch.

DANTE:

Would you like some tea, Aunt Stella?

STELLA:

Beer, please.

Dante went to the kitchen, opened the fridge and took two bottles of beer out. Dante sat next to his aunt and gave her a bottle of beer.

DANTE:

Now, tell me. When did this happen?

Stella drank half a bottle of beer and turned to Dante.

STELLA:

It all started when I was on the phone to God asking him that I want to see your mother. But when he refused, I got so mad, he hung up me and I took it out of your uncle after I found out he was...

Stella and Dante looked surprised.

DANTE:

You're not mad of Uncle Stolas. You're mad of God because he won't let you see my Mum in heaven.

Stella looked nervous.

STELLA (Nervously):

No, it's not that. I mean I know that's his law since Mundus took over the living world and your father sealed his powers and... and....

Stella felt depressed and started to cry.

STELLA (Crying):

Yes! Yes! I missed her! Your mother always kept me happy and she always help our relationship every time me and your uncle fight! I just wanted her back! Is that so wrong?

Dante felt sorry for his aunt and comforted her.

DANTE:

There, there, Aunt Stella. I wanted her back too. But I don't want to see her because it won't be fair for you, Octavia and Uncle Stolas.

Stella cried loudly, until she calmed down, dried her tears and looked at her nephew.

STELLA:

Oh, thank you, sweetheart. You always understand what I'm going through. That's why you're my favourite nephew.

Dante smiled.

DANTE:

I know.

Dante had an idea.

DANTE:

I'll tell you what. Why don't we go to Loo Loo Land. Have a day. Just you and me.

Stella smiled at her nephew.

STELLA:

I like that. You were always happy when I took you there.

DANTE:

Well, I did like hiding in the Fun House.

Dante's smartphone was beeping in his pocket. He took it out and read the text that's from Octavia on the screen.

DANTE (Reading):

Hi, Dante. Going to Loo Loo Land with my dad and his red dick-head boyfriend. It'll be full of shit. Tell you all about it when I get back.

Dante put down his phone and looked sad.

DANTE:

I guess Loo Loo Land is off. Where are we gonna go now?

Stella was thinking.

STELLA:

Well, there's one place I want to go.

Location: The Living World

Area: The Ruins of the Castle of Sparda

Dante and Stella appeared from the portal and arrived at the castle. Dante looked surprised when he saw his father's castle in ruins.

DANTE:

My dad's castle. What happened?

STELLA:

Mundus destroyed it after you escaped. That's what your father told me. But I know your brother had...

DANTE:

I know. That was ten years ago.

Dante looked confused.

DANTE:

But why did you bring me here? Is this a trip to Memory Lane?

STELLA:

Sort of.

Stella walked up to Dante and held his hand.

STELLA:

Come. There's something your father left for you long ago.

Dante followed his aunt and entered the castle. Inside the castle, all the windows, doors, walls and portraits were broken and ruined. Dante and Stella were walking in the hall.

DANTE:

I can't believe Mundus destroyed my home.

STELLA:

I know. I used to throw big parties for you there, Dante.

DANTE:

Yeah, you always like throwing parties, Auntie. At my birthday, you always give me big ones because of my favourite video game.

STELLA:

Well, your auntie knows how much you love Devil May Cry. Do you remember when you were ten, you caught me getting undressed in the guest room.

Dante rolled his eyes.

DANTE:

How can I forget.

STELLA:

I begged you to stay with me and I've explained to you that looking at naked women is perfectly natural.

DANTE:

In Hell, yes.

Stella was teasing her nephew.

STELLA:

And you always like playing with my tits and I didn't mind.

Dante pushed his aunt away very gently.

DANTE:

Aunt Stella, I didn't know what I was doing back then, until my mum explained it to me and told me not to get obsessed with it. But you know me, I always listened to her. And besides, I still have Loona in my mind.

Stella noticed her nephew looked sad.

STELLA:

So, you and Loona are still together?

DANTE:

No, she got adopted. I wanted to find her, but I was busy training with my dad and we haven't opened our own killing spree yet. So, I've missed her.

Stella comforted her nephew.

STELLA:

Don't worry, sweetheart. Loona is a hellhound. Once she picks up your scent, she'll find you again. You two love each other and you're perfect together.

Dante smiled at his aunt.

DANTE:

Thanks, Auntie.

Dante and Stella arrived at Sparda and Eva's bedroom.

STELLA:

Well, here we are.

Dante and Stella went inside the room and saw a big skeleton of the corrupted hellhound.

STELLA:

What was that?

DANTE:

That's the corrupted hellhound. I made it play dead by killing it with my dad's guns.

Dante looked around the room.

DANTE:

What exactly are we looking for?

Stella spotted a cupboard and walked up to it. Then she spotted something behind it and she turned to Dante.

STELLA:

Dante, it's behind the cupboard.

Dante walked up to the cupboard and pushed it to the right. Then he looked surprised when saw a sword hanging on the wall.

DANTE:

Is... Is that?

Stella explained to Dante.

STELLA:

This is your father's first sword. He calls it the Rebellion. He made that sword while he was working with Mundus. Before he betrayed him and found the Yamato. He wants you to have it.

Dante slowly picked up the Rebellion and looked at it.

DANTE:

I know that sword. That was the first weapon from Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening. I can't believe my dad made this. And now it's mine.

STELLA:

That sword also contains the power your father chose for you.

DANTE:

Really? So, how do I awaken it?

Stella looked a little worried.

STELLA:

Dante, they only way to awaken that power is...

Dante and Stella jumped by surprised when they heard a voice in the room.

VERGIL (Voiceover):

Dante! Daaanntte! I've been waiting for you, brother.

DANTE:

Brother?

VERGIL (Voiceover):

Meet me outside. It's time for our reunion.

STELLA:

That voice sounds like you, Dante.

DANTE:

Yeah, it does.

Dante placed his sword on his back and held his aunt's hand.

DANTE:

Come on. We better go check it out. Make sure you stay behind me, okay?

STELLA:

Okay.

Dante and Stella left the castle and went outside. Then they saw a strange man holding a katana.

VERGIL (Laughing):

Ha, ha, ha, ha. I see you brought someone from our family, brother.

The strange man turned to Dante and Stella, and revealed himself as Vergil.

DANTE:

Vergil?

VERGIL:

Surprised to see me?

Dante didn't look happy.

DANTE:

Not really?

VERGIL:

Oh, I get it. You're still thinking about the day I sent our mother to heaven by killing her.

DANTE:

I'll never forget that day. You made me.

VERGIL:

Well, I did what I had to do. I spent ten years in the Demon World trained by Mundus, while you spent ten years in Hell with your family. Our family.

DANTE:

We're never a family. Not anymore. I gave your amulet to someone in Hell, and you'll never get it back.

VERGIL:

I wasn't planning to.

Vergil saw Stella behind Dante.

VERGIL:

Hello, Aunt Stella. I haven't seen you for a long time. How's Uncle Stolas?

Stella didn't look happy to see Vergil.

STELLA:

You have no idea what I'm going through right now.

VERGIL:

I guess he hasn't told you his secret about imps.

Vergil noticed that Stella looked sad.

VERGIL:

Wait. You just found out, didn't you?

Vergil looked happily surprised and started laughing.

VERGIL (Laughing):

Holy shit! You found out that my uncle is an imp fucker! Ha, ha, ha, ha! I knew he never loved you! Ha, ha, ha, ha!

Dante looked angry while Vergil continued to laugh.

DANTE:

Stop laughing, Vergil! It's not fucking funny! Our aunt is upset because you killed our Mum and she can't go to heaven to see her because of God's law.

Vergil stopped laughing and looked serious.

VERGIL:

Oh, my apologies, brother. I've forgot about God's law. But don't worry. I can make it go away.

DANTE:

How the hell you're gonna do that?

Vergil wrapped his arm around Dante.

VERGIL:

It's simple. Mundus ordered me to kill you, but if you join me, we can go back to the Demon World and kill Mundus together.

DANTE:

So, you can take his place?

VERGIL:

What?

DANTE:

That's why you wanted our dad's power. To control the world by taking Mundus' place, isn't it?

VERGIL:

That's right. With your power and mine, we can rule this world and protect everyone by controlling them.

DANTE:

You think that's how protection works?

VERGIL:

Our dad is a corrupted demon just like us. And that's what we meant to be.

DANTE:

You're wrong! Our dad chooses not to be corrupted; he used his power to help every demon in Hell, especially our Uncle Stolas. Helping is part of protection, not to take control.

VERGIL:

If you can't accept that your power is meant for corruption, then give it to me. I'll rule alone.

DANTE:

Our dad didn't choose you to have his power, so you can take Mundus' place. I can't let you do this, Vergil.

VERGIL:

And I can't let you stop me, brother. Give me.... your power.

DANTE:

Don't do this.

Stella begged Vergil.

STELLA:

Vergil, please.

Vergil yelled at his aunt.

VERGIL (Yelling):

Stay out of this!

Dante and Vergil got into battle formation, while Stella hid behind the broken water fountain and watched them draw their swords.

VERGIL:

There's still time to change your mind, Dante. Accept your corruption.

DANTE:

I won't accept anything from my ex-brother.

VERGIL:

So, be it!

Dante and Vergil charged at each other and clashed their swords together. After lots of clashes and slashes, Dante and Vergil looked at each other angrily.

VERGIL:

Why do you refuse to accept corruption? Like our father, Sparda.

DANTE:

Why? I'll tell you why. I just don't like you. That's all.

Dante ran up to Vergil, until he disarmed Dante with his Katana and dropped him to the floor. Then Vergil grabbed the Rebellion and impaled it into Dante's body.

VERGIL:

Foolishness, Dante. Foolishness.

Stella looked shocked when she saw Dante in pain and slowly died. Dante's blood was flowing out of his body and spreading on the grass. Vergil looked at his dead brother's body.

VERGIL:

Hmm. His power didn't flow into me. I guess he was weak after all.

Stella ran to Dante's corpse; she was crying as she held onto his body.

STELLA (Crying):

Dante, no! No, no, no, no! Don't leave me! Please don't leave me!

Vergil smiled when he saw Stella crying over Dante's corpse.

VERGIL:

The Princess of Hell is obsessed with my brother. Pity.

Stella furiously looked at Vergil, then she ran up to him and grabbed him.

STELLA (Furiously):

You bastard! I'll fucking kill you! I'll fucking kill you! You fucking bastard! I'll fucking kill you!

Vergil grabbed his aunt and pushed her to the ground. Stella was crying, while Vergil looked at her.

VERGIL:

Now I can see why you were his favourite. You loved him so much that you just wanted to have him forever.

Vergil bent down on one knee and held out his hand to Stella.

VERGIL:

There's still a chance for you. Come with me, and I'll let you see my mother.

Stella looked at Vergil.

STELLA:

I would rather die!

Vergil got up from one knee and he didn't look happy.

VERGIL:

Very well. Once I kill you, you won't be coming back from where you're going!

While Vergil was about to impale his katana in Stella, Dante opened his eyes, then the Rebellion changed as the fire rose up. Vergil turned around and saw his brother appear from the fire. Dante pulled his sword out of his body, transformed into a demon and he looked angry.

DANTE (Demonic Voice):

VERGIL!!!

Vergil looked surprised.

VERGIL:

I see, the devil inside you has awakened as well.

Stella looked happy when she saw Dante alive.

STELLA:

Dante!

Dante and Vergil resumed their battle formation.

VERGIL:

Now we've awakened our demons...

Vergil transformed into a demon.

VERGIL (Demonic Voice):

...Let's finish what we've started!

Dante and Vergil used their demon powers at each other with their swords. Dante was filled with rage and he defeated Vergil by impaling his sword into his body and the ground. Vergil changed back into his human form and smiled at Dante.

VERGIL:

Go ahead, kill me. Take my power. Become corrupted. Take Mundus' place. It's what our dad wanted.

Stella got up from the ground and tried to stop her nephew from killing Vergil by talking to him.

STELLA:

Dante, no! This is not what your dad wanted. Mundus deserves to die, but not like this. If you kill your brother, you will be more corrupt than he is. If you want to protect the world with your power, you need to learn to control it. That's what your dad wants. But if you don't, you won't be yourself. You will end up killing everyone you love, including Loona. Think about her, Dante! She's waiting for you! She needs you! Think about her, please!

Dante started to calmed down and remember the days he had with Loona.

DANTE (Demonic Voice):

Loona?

(Flashback Sequence of Dante and Loona)

(Present Day Sequence)

Location: The Living World

Area: The Ruins of the Castle of Sparda.

Dante pulled his sword out of Vergil's body, changed back into his human form and looked at Stella.

DANTE:

Thank you.

Stella nodded at her nephew. Dante reached out his hand to his brother. Vergil exchanged his hand with his brother's and Dante lifted him up from the ground. Vergil looked weak.

VERGIL (Weakly):

Why didn't you kill me?

DANTE:

Because you wanted me to. The Living World and Hell is under our dad's protection. And soon it will be under mine.

VERGIL (Weakly):

You've chosen the wrong side, brother.

DANTE:

No! You've chosen the wrong side. Our dad betrayed Mundus because he saw what corruption has done to him. He saved our family. He saved everyone in the Living World and Hell. That's why God chose our dad to protect them and chose Uncle Stolas to guard Mundus' powers. You are a disgrace to the Sparda and Goetia family, and if I ever see you again, I will kill you in the right way. Now get the fuck out of my life!

Vergil looked angry at Dante.

VERGIL (Weakly):

Fine. But when that time comes, I will be the only Sparda and all the Goetia family will die! Goodbye, brother.

Vergil used his katana to opened the portal and went through it. After the portal closed, Dante looked sad, while Stella comforted him.

STELLA:

I know it hurts Dante, but you did the right thing.

DANTE:

You knew that impaling myself with the Rebellion will awaken my power that my dad chose for me, didn't you?

STELLA:

Yes, but I was afraid it wouldn't work when Vergil...

DANTE:

I understand. But you don't need to worry now. I'll make sure that my ex-brother won't go near you and our family again. Besides Vergil can't go to Hell without his amulet because I gave it to Loona.

Stella smiled.

STELLA:

Yes, you had told me that, dear. So, what do we do now?

Dante looked at his father's castle.

DANTE:

Well, there's no need to stay here anymore. We got what we came for.

Dante held on to his amulet.

DANTE:

Send me to Hell. Stolas' Mansion. Hallway.

The portal appeared in front of Dante and Stella.

DANTE:

Come on, I'll take you home.

Dante held on to his aunt's hand and went through the portal together.

Location: Hell

Area: Stolas' Mansion

In the hall, the portal closed behind Dante and Stella.

DANTE:

Whoa! Talk about fast travel.

Stella was reflecting about Eva and turned to Dante.

STELLA:

Dante, I would like to thank you for protecting me from your brother. You dad was right to choose you.

DANTE:

You're welcome.

Stella noticed her nephew looked worried.

STELLA:

What's wrong?

DANTE:

Aunt Stella, are you and Uncle Stolas getting a divorce?

STELLA:

No. That will upset the Goetia family, and I told you it has nothing to do with your uncle. It's me. I'm angry of God because I don't want to accept his law, but every demon has to. Dante, I know you and your father will kill Mundus, so God will remove that law and I can see your mother again. But for now, I promise I will do everything to keep you happy, because you're my only favourite nephew.

Stella kissed Dante on the cheek.

STELLA:

I'm going have a bath. But I would like you to stay with us for dinner. What would you like?

Dante was thinking.

DANTE:

Hmm. I was thinking about.... Pizza?

Stella smiled.

STELLA:

All right. I'll order some later. See you at dinner.

DANTE:

See you, Auntie.

After Stella went to the bathroom, Dante went inside his uncle's bedroom.

DANTE:

My uncle is not here. He must be still in Loo Loo Land with Octavia. Okay, let's go look for my dad's missing journal page.

Dante went to the bookshelf and found his dad's missing journal page inside the grimoire.

DANTE:

Yes!

Dante unfolded the journal page and read it.

DANTE (Reading):

When Mundus took over Hell and the Living World, time and space were frozen. I spend two thousand years in a cell thinking about my friend, Blitzy. After Sparda freed me, I had sex with so many corrupted imps and none of them was Blitzy. It was my distraction, so Sparda can stop Mundus. When Hell and the Living World was back to normal, I married Stella, but she and I don't love each other. I've been telling my brother how I feel every day and he understood me. I hope someday I'll see Blitzy again, so I can let him fuck me and suck my cock, until my cum squirts all over his face.

Dante was disgusted.

DANTE (Disgusted):

Ugh! That last bit sounds gross, but the rest was...

Dante looked surprised.

DANTE:

Oh, my God! My uncle is in love with that imp Blitzy, not Aunt Stella.

Stolas was behind Dante looking sad.

STOLAS:

So, now you know.

Dante turned to his uncle.

DANTE:

It's Blitzy your boyfriend?

STOLAS:

Dante, please try to understand.

DANTE:

So, you've been seeing him behind my auntie's back.

STOLAS:

No! I met him when I was a kid. He worked at the circus and we used to play pirates. I felt a warm glow in my heart when we spent time together. But when he came back yesterday, he ravished me so good and that was before you caught us. I love Blitzy because he's my only friend and I want him to be mine forever.

Dante understood how his uncle felt.

DANTE:

Oh, God, Uncle. I know how you feel. Does Octavia know about this?

STOLAS:

Yes. I couldn't explain it to her, but I told her I'll never leave her.

DANTE:

So, you and Aunt Stella are getting a divorce?

STOLAS:

I don't know when, but yes.

DANTE:

But if you do that, it will upset the Goetia family, including Octavia. And you know she knows that.

STOLAS:

No, I don't know it!

DANTE:

In your heart you do.

STOLAS:

No, no. I promised my daughter I'll never leave her.

Dante had an idea.

DANTE:

What if I let her stay with me and my dad if things don't work out the way you wanted.

Stolas looked happy about Dante's idea.

STOLAS:

You know, Dante. That's a good idea. Octavia always wanted to stay with you.

Stolas looked worried because he had second thoughts.

STOLAS:

But you know I don't like being alone.

DANTE:

That's okay. You can stay with us, too. But that means you have to give up being part of the Goetia family.

STOLAS:

I know. But that won't stop me for being who I am.

Stolas smiled at his nephew.

STOLAS:

Thank you, Dante. I'll think about it.

Dante and Stolas hugged each other, then they let go.

DANTE:

So, how was Loo Loo Land?

STOLAS:

Well, Octavia told me she's too old for it, so, went to Stylish Occult.

DANTE:

Really? Cause that T-shirt looks good on you.

Stolas blushed.

STOLAS:

Oh! Do you think so?

DANTE:

Yeah. When Blitzy sees you wearing that, he'll be begging for your dick.

STOLAS:

I know he will. And you made it go hard by making me think about him!

Dante calmed his uncle down.

DANTE:

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Okay! Save that for your boyfriend.

STOLAS:

Oh, sorry. You know, Dante, things would've been a lot different if you and your family didn't come into my life.

DANTE:

Well, things are about to change, Uncle. So, where's Octavia?

STOLAS:

She's in her room playing her video games. I think you should see her.

DANTE:

That's exactly what I'm gonna do.

When Dante was about to leave his uncle's bedroom, he turned around and looked at him.

DANTE:

Oh, Uncle Stolas. You don't have worried about Aunt Stella for now. She's only angry because God won't let her see my mum because of his law.

Stolas sighed sadly.

STOLAS:

I knew that. Thank you for telling me.

Dante smiled and left the room. Back in the hall, Dante's smartphone was ringing in his coat pocket. He took it out and saw his dad's name on the screen. Dante answered his phone.

DANTE:

Hey, Dad.

SPARDA (Phone):

Hi, son. Your aunt called me and said she helped you find my sword, Rebellion at my old castle.

DANTE:

Yes, and then I saw Vergil. He's more corrupted than the last time I saw him. He stabbed me with the Rebellion and I died for a few minutes. But when I came back, I transformed into a demon. I was going to kill Vergil, but my aunt snapped me out of it. She didn't want me to become corrupted like him, so, I let him live and he went back to the Demon World.

SPARDA (Phone):

So, you learn to control your powers?

DANTE:

Yes.

SPARDA (Phone):

Then you've completed your training. I'm proud of you, son. You have fully become a Nephilim that me and your mother wanted you to be.

DANTE:

Thanks, Dad. But there's something you need to know.

SPARDA (Phone):

What is it?

DANTE:

I don't think my uncle loves my aunt. He loves Blitzy.

SPARDA (Phone):

You've found and read the missing page of my journal, didn't you?

DANTE:

I did. But if he really loves him, that means he'll have to leave the Goetia family, and so do we.

SPARDA (Phone):

Yes, but trust me, this will be better for us and it won't stop us from killing Mundus.

DANTE:

If it does happen, Dad. Would it be okay for my uncle and Octavia to stay with us?

SPARDA (Phone):

Of course, it would because that's what I've been thinking from the very beginning.

Dante smiled.

DANTE:

Thanks, Dad. That makes me feel better.

SPARDA (Phone):

So, you're gonna tell Octavia about this?

DANTE:

That's what I'm gonna do. I'll call you back. Bye.

Dante hung up his smartphone and entered Octavia's bedroom.

DANTE:

Hi, Octavia.

Octavia saw Dante while she was playing her PlayStation 4.

OCTAVIA:

Oh, hi, Dante.

Dante looked at the T.V screen and realized Octavia was playing Dead Rising 2.

DANTE:

Is that Dead Rising 2?

Octavia looked a little worried and sighed.

OCTAVIA:

Shit! All right, I lied. I still play Dead Rising and I love listening to Celldweller.

Octavia stopped playing her video game, while Dante sat on the bed next to her.

DANTE:

Did you have a good time at Loo Loo Land?

Octavia looked sad.

OCTAVIA (Sadly):

No. I only want to go there with you.

Dante looked confused.

DANTE:

But I thought you told your dad you're too old for that.

OCTAVIA (Sadly):

That's what I wanted him to believe because I didn't want to tell him when you came to Hell, you made my life better than he did. You always find me when I'm lost and you always comfort me when I have nightmares about Vergil. But when my parents started hating each other, you were never around.

Dante felt sorry for his cousin.

DANTE:

I'm sorry. I was so busy training with my dad and I didn't have time to...

OCTAVIA (Sadly):

You could've called.

DANTE:

Yeah, I've could've.

Dante took a deep breath and exhaled.

DANTE:

Octavia, your dad doesn't love your mum. He loves Blitzy.

OCTAVIA (Sadly):

That weird red dickhead?

DANTE:

Yes. I believe your dad will divorce your mum, but he doesn't know when. That will mean he'll have to leave the Goetia family for good. You do know that, don't you?

OCTAVIA (Sadly):

Yes, but I never want that to happen.

DANTE:

Well, if it does, you and your dad can stay with me and my dad.

Octavia looked a little surprised.

OCTAVIA:

Really?

DANTE:

Yes. I don't know when, but my dad will allow it.

Octavia smiled and started flirting with Dante.

OCTAVIA:

Dante, this what I always wanted. I'm always happy when I'm with you and your dad. And I always found my dad easily at your house. You made me feel good. (Seductive): I just wanted to please you.

Dante looked a little worried when Octavia placed her hand on his trousers.

DANTE:

Octavia?

Octavia looked embarrassed and let go of Dante.

OCTAVIA:

Oh, sorry. I still got my dad in me.

Dante and Octavia burst out laughing.

DANTE (laughing):

So, you were gonna give me a blow job?!

OCTAVIA (Laughing):

I was! But if you want me to, I can!

DANTE:

All right, all right. Let's not think about that.

Dante and Octavia calmed themselves down.

DANTE:

Well, since you're in a good mood, I have something to show you.

OCTAVIA:

You have? What is it?

Dante got up from the bed.

DANTE:

Watch this.

Dante clenched himself to awaken his demon form, but nothing happened. Octavia looked confused of what Dante was doing.

OCTAVIA:

Are you trying to shit yourself?

Dante stopped clenching himself.

DANTE:

All right, I'll explain it to you. I went to my dad's old castle in the living world with your mum and I found this sword, Rebellion. Then I saw my brother Vergil.

OCTAVIA:

You saw Vergil?

DANTE:

Then he stabbed me with the Rebellion and I died. But when I came back from the dead, I've awoken my Devil Trigger.

Octavia looked surprised when Dante transformed into a demon.

OCTAIVA:

Holy shit! How did you do that?

Dante looked confused.

DANTE (Demonic Voice):

I don't know. I just said Devil Trigger and....

Dante looked surprised.

DANTE (Demonic Voice):

Wait. Let's see what words I can say to change me back.

Dante was thinking, then he had some ideas.

DANTE (Demonic Voice):

Devil Trigger! No. Devil May Cry! No. Nephilim! No. Shazam! No, that's a superhero word. Oh, I got it! HUMAN!!!!

Dante changed back into his human form.

OCTAVIA:

So, you can change into a demon by saying Devil Trigger, and you can change back by saying Human?!

DANTE:

I guess I can.

Octavia ran up to Dante and hugged him.

OCTAVIA:

You always know how to keep me happy.

DANTE:

If you don't mind, Octavia. I'm going to stay here for dinner tonight. And you'll never guess what we're gonna have.

OCTAVIA:

Is it pizza?

DANTE:

Yes.

Octavia smiled at Dante.

OCTAVIA:

Dante, my dad's okay sometimes. But you're okay all the time.

Dante smiled at Octavia.

DANTE:

Thanks, Octavia.

Dante hugged Octavia back, but what they don't know is Stolas was watching them and he happily walked away.

STOLAS:

Thank you, Dante.

Dante and Blitzo narrated the ending.

DANTE (Narrator):

I've awoken my powers; I fought Vergil and I kept my family happy. My aunt was only angry because God won't let her see my mum, but I manage to calm her down. And as for my uncle and Octavia, I'm going to give them a normal life when the time is right after they leave the Goetia family. I don't know when, but someday. Well, that's the end of my origin story. It will be my brother's turn on the next mission: Vergil's Corruption.

BLITZO (Narrator):

Wait, I was only in one scene? Why didn't they show us I took the book after I fucked your uncle?

DANTE (Narrator):

Because everybody had seen that from season two of your show, you weird red dickhead! So, do not fuck the next mission up!

(End of Mission 04)
