Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Demonic Decedents. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own DMC, Hideki Kamiya, Capcom and a few others do.
(Fortuna, Castle)
Lady looked at Seth who looked at her and continued walking, casually resting his hand on Damnation.
"You got goosebumps?" Seth jokingly asked, noting her lack of response. Seth frowned and looked at Gilgamesh.
"I seriously don't know what kind of toy this is… Hmm." Seth muttered, Lady stopped and Seth turned to look at his partner.
"Your seriously not even going to bring it up?" Lady asked, Seth brushed off his arms and continued walking already knowing there was another demon in the castle. Lady rushed in front of him and Seth sighed.
"You know what I mean, the memories…. The things you saw." Lady stated; Seth crossed his arms.
"Because the reception upstairs is a bit fuzzy at the moment?" Seth jokingly asked, Lady put her hadn't on her hips.
"I've been trying to remember things… I don't know everything, I have to deal with the next demon or get to the hell gate, I haven't gotten much thought on how it works…" Seth started, Lady finished it with a sigh.
"You believe that if Dante gets there, he'll kill the Demon, smash up the Hell Gate and then we go home and relax with our paycheck." Seth said, he turned to Lady and crossed his arms.
"I'm THIS close to slugging you." Lady said with a sigh while Seth walked down the corridor with her following him.
"You're the one working with me, you told me Dante does nothing but joke…" Seth said while he turned to her.
" I think that if Dante is without a doubt my brother like these memory flashes are showing me? You're know humor runs in the family." Seth said before he continued down the hallway, Lady sighed and followed, holding her head in her hand.
"Spardas…" She muttered before she followed him into the castle, she had no idea how much this would change her and Seth's partnership.
"You think these gates are going to restore your memories?" Lady asked, she turned and shot a Scarecrow before having to shoot it 3 more times, Seth only turned slightly to look over his shoulder at the dying demon.
"I got a lot of memories back from the last gate, I think with time, I'd get them all back… But if I get to the other gates? I could get them all back now and find out what the hell happened before I showed up at Dante's shop." Seth said while he walked down the corridor with Lady following.
"You know this city worships Sparda, right? I read up on it before we went down here." Lady stated, Seth hummed and then dropped into another room. He turned to her in surprise.
"Well I guess that explains all the shrines and all that… I guess this adventure just got a lot more personal then…" Seth said while he continued walking, he heard a noise and then the sound of gunfire.
Seth looked at Lady who hadn't moved a muscle and Seth knew that it wasn't Dante who was shooting around the castle.
"Who the hell else is here fighting demons? I thought we and Dante were the only ones fighting since Trish is busy." Seth stated while he looked up at the ceiling where he heard the sound of bullets hitting the ground.
"Someone else is here?" Lady asked, Seth turned to Lady and sighed.
"I'll find whoever it is, you get to the next gate." Seth said, Lady gave him a hard look before sighing and gave him a nod, knowing Seth would head off to get after the other shooter anyway.
"You better come back." Lady said, Seth nodded and dashed off right before more Scarecrows leapt into the room.
"They choose the moment he leaves to fight…. Smart… Damn it." Lady said as she raised her pistol and fired.
(With Seth)
Seth rushed through the castle like a bat out of hell, he was fast enough to outrace an Olympic runner, a perk of being half demonic, he rushed through the castle, wind blowing behind him.
"She's going to kill me when I get back to her." Seth said while he rushed through the castle, he didn't even know which chamber Lady was in, but he knew he'd find Lady sooner or later after he wrapped this up.
He rushed out a door and leapt up to a window before he leapt onto the walkway which connected to the chamber.
"I wonder who the hell this is, walking around and causing all this chaos. I don't have time for this at the moment." Seth said while he drew Vendetta and rested his hand on Damnation.
"Hmm…" Seth said, resting his hands on his weapons while he walked through the door and looked around.
He felt a bullet slam into his chest and growled in pain. He rolled and fired a shot in return, using the momentum to turn and fire a shot in return.
Author Notes
Phew, another chapter done! I know it's a short chapter, next chapter will be different. I want to point out the updates will be slow. Next chapter will be in 2 or so weeks on Saturday or so and will show Seth fighting and Meeting Nero. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!
