Blue mirage blades shot from above both shoulders, a few deft ones altering the trajectory of the spikes threatening her, to ensure she could keep fighting.

Onyx spikes were shot out like cannonballs in all directions, but the wall of spikes headed his way were the most concerning. He leapt through them, body twisting and turning as he deftly avoided the projectiles as they continued on past him.

"Out of my way!"

Yamato was replaced by gauntlets spewing blue hellflame as he slammed his fist into one hard enough to send it careening back into the far wall, cratering it.

The grunts and groans it released through some unknown means told her that it was being harmed, but it still soaked up her bullets in an effort to chase her down.

Vergil, meanwhile, was being accosted by the other, its body spinning and twisting as it tried to skewer him on its spikes. He might+

homunculi that even Vergil found hard to look at straight on.

"Those aren't..."

No, they weren't anything he had ever seen before. They were something different yet still distinctly familiar. Like the slow first steps of a budding evolution. And the miasma of an Aura they gave off filled his +

cascaded in through large, ominous windows. He drew his attention to bubbling pools of black matter on the floor.

"Here they come."

He sighed— as if this was nothing more than a chore. He watched as two hulking figures rose from the ground. They resembled Berserkers, but their muscular frames +

bad. A humiliating defeat, one in a great many he had experienced. Yet he never let go. He couldn't.

"This won't be the same."

He said, if only to relieve his own mind,

"Not in the slightest."

His boots tapped against the blood red marble flooring of the first level, where rays of sunset +

He glanced at the lighting when she made note of it, and the grip on his sword grew ever tighter as she expressed her familiarity with their surroundings.

"You mean the Temen-ni-gru."

He nearly hissed the words, controlling his tone through nearly clenched teeth. Memories yes, some good, most +

leaving her with a thought to chew on as they descended into the first level,

"When we're two sides of the same coin."

The darkness consumed them, their path lit by the dim low light of torches. What was the true answer to their lifelong question? He supposed he would find out for himself...

He started back on, heading deeper into the depths of the tower, before coming to a stop to look over his shoulder at her,

"You think Dante and I are night and day."

But she couldn't see the forest for the trees. Two beings born under +

"Mutants."

The word was like poison, he spat it out as if it were actually so. Disgusting mutts, created by their foe. If demons and humans were contemptible, then these 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 were loathsome.

That was for him to decide, but it definitely shouldn't consist of brooding only.

Try something else for once, Vergil!

He didn't wait for her to make a decision, drawing Yamato to split the gate in twain in a fraction of a second.
