Chapters It was now night time, Kat’s car turned into an alleyway and went through a gate before coming to a stop outside several garages. The three occupants got out, one a human male, the other a human female and the last a female that could be mistaken for a person in armour.
Kat lead the group towards a door that was half open and had graffiti on it. “Welcome to the order.”
“Not what I was expecting.” Replied Dante.
“Me too, I thought it would be more impressive.” Stated Sunset Shimmer aka Kamen Rider Symbol.
“That's the idea.” Deadpanned Kat.
“Ah! The old hiding in plain sight routine.” Realized Sunset.
“The demons are among us Sunset, Dante, they are enslaving mankind.” Explained Kat as she ducked under the door with the Kamen Rider and male following. “The world is asleep brainwashed and helpless.” Kat pressed her thumb to some brickwork that had a skull painted on it, causing it to move aside revealing a number pad that Kat quickly typed a code into. Before some more brickwork moved and revealed an eye scanner. Which scanned her right eye, the whole wall then moved revealing a door. “We’re fighting back.”
“Woh!” Muttered Sunset as they went through the wall turned door.
Dante glanced up at a camera as Kat continued explaining. “We are a small handful of freedom fighters.” The door slid shut behind them. “We are the last and only line of defence.”
Dante scoffed at that. “Defence? You got now chance Ow!” As he drew some dust from the wall with his finger, flicked in on the floor and was promptly kicked in the gut by Sunset.
Kat, seemly unaware of the comedy act behind her continued. “We don’t leave things to chance, we’ve accumulated vast intelligence on the demon’s and their collaborators:” They went through another door into a room full computers and people. “World leaders, bankers, pop stars… we can hit them where it hurts.”
“Ah! In the no no spot.” Realised Sunset getting odd looks from Dante and Kat. Who folded her arms behind her back and went through another door. In the room was a white haired man in a black coat.
“Amazing.” He muttered. “Dante, Sunset it really is you two.” Getting a shrug from Dante and an odd look from Sunset. “You don’t remember me?” He questioned.
“No.” Came the blunt response from the man.
“Should we?” Asked the female.
After a short pause which made Sunset fidget the man asked. “How much of your childhood's do you remember?”
Dante replied first. “Not much, I had meningitis when I was seven, wiped my memory. Why?”
The man then looked to the other occupant of the room. “And you? Sunset Shimmer?”
“Nothing expect my name, how to fight, how my powers worked and the name of my weapon. I repeat Dante’s question; why?”
The man scoffed. “Hah! They told me I had a car accident that resulted in total amnesia! Age: Seven.”
“Starting to see a pattern here.” Muttered Sunset.
Dante did not. “Your point?”
The man walked forwards. “Meningitis is a human affliction. You are not human, Dante.”
“Explains how he survived a knife almost cutting him in half.” Muttered Sunset.
“All war is fought with deception and you have been deceived. Your past has been hidden from you both for a reason."
“Rewind a bit, who are you again?” Asked Dante.
The man pulled back a bit. “My name is Vergil. I established the order to find a way to fight the demons.
“Besides sword and bullets you mean?” Questioned Dante.
“Don’t forget superpowers.” Chirped Symbol.
Vergil turned back to the two non humans. “Such weapon and abilities can win battles, but not the war. We use force, yes, but we also use intelligence, politics and propaganda."
“You really believe you can make a dent?” Asked Dante.
Vergil looked at Dante. “Make a dent? With the three of us working together I believe we can defeat them!”
“So that's what this is about.” Realized Dante. “You need us to find the demons, to help you save the world.”
“What else were you planning on doing with your life?” Asked Vergil.
Dante sighed. “Well you guys do seem nice, but I’m more of a loner type. Trust issues, work alone that kind of thing.”
“I’m in.” Stated Symbol causing Dante to look at her in shock. “Well they’re not going to stop trying to kill us, unless we kill them.” She explained. Dante couldn’t fault that.
Kat walked forwards. “Dante, I don’t think understand what is at stake.”
Vergil held up a hand to silence her. “If you want to leave, turn your back on. I’m powerless to stop you.” He stated grimly. “But you’ll be making a grave mistake. Not just for yourself, but for mankind.”
“For mankind?”
“Yes!”
“What makes you think I give a shit. OW! Will you stop hitting me?!”
“Not until you stop being a jerk!” Snapped back Sunset.
“At least give me a chance to show you both.” Pleaded Vergil.
“Show us what?” Demanded Dante.
“Who you the two of you really are.”
Hook line and sinker.
Time Skip to next morning:
The car drove into a ground of a ruined mansion called Paradise. The four of them walked into the mansion, with Sunset looking around in awe.
“This was your home.” Stated Vergil.
Dante walked up beside him. “I don’t remember.”
“Me neither.” Added Sunset.
“You will.” Promised Vergil. “Both of you. Kat, open the gateway.”
Said girl nodded, she pulled a scroll off her back and unrolled it, placing it on the ground revealing a magic circle. She then pulled out a spray can and start to spray some kind of white substance over the circle.
Dante had to ask. “What are you doing?”
Kat explained. “Our world and Limbo are very closely super-positioned. They collide in places causing what we call rifts. Dante and Sunset crochet down next to her. “It's here, in the rifts, where we can create gateways to and from Limbo.
Dante reached down and scraped some of the white stuff up, rubbed it between his fingers and smelt it. Grimacing he asked. “Doesn’t smell good. What’s in the can?”
“A compound I created based on an old wiccan recipe. Sea salt, shark oil, iron shavings, desiccated squirrel seaman, wolf hair-”
Dante patted her on the back. “Good stuff.” He commented.
Kat felt someone pulling on her sock, she looked down and sweat dropped. Symbol was on the ground looking ready to throw up, pulling at her stock weakly. “I think I’ll just shut up now.”
Vergil pointed to the magic circle. “Go ahead. The house holds secrets. I’ve found mine, now it's your turn.”
“How will we get back?” Asked Symbol.
“We’ll take care of that. Just be careful, it can get rough in there.”
Dante turned to Kat. “I like it rough.”
When they had vanished Kat asked Vergil. “Is this really going to work? Dante doesn’t seem care and Symbol is just a teenager.”
“They're both raw, just like you were when I first found you.” Replied Vergil, making Kat look down.
Limbo
Dante and Symbol materialized in the demonic realm, with red skies and the house looked to be filled with black rocks.
“Lets go.” Muttered Symbol, they ran down the corridor and into what looked like an entrance hall.
“So this was our home.” Muttered Dante as he gazed around.
“Well, show us your secrets!” Shouted Sunset getting a strange look from Dante since she was talking to a building.
They ran up the left stairs and through a door, before following the hallway around to the left and into a room, it had a painting at the other end of a male, with a symbol that looked like Dante’s tattoo at the bottom glowing demonic red. Suddenly, a light swept over the room and it looked brand new with a table in the centre, book cases against the walls and chairs on either side of said table.
They walked up to the painting, noticing that the face had been clawed off. “Who the hell are you?” Asked Dante, then he looked at the paintings name tag. “Sparda.” He remember that the Hunter Demon called him the ‘Son of Sparda’ “My dad?” He asked not sure how to feel.
Sunset hugged him from behind and Dante leaned into her shoulder. The tender moment was broken when the demon’s arrived. First came four Lesser Stygians.
“I’ll take care of this!” Dante ran at them, he sent one flying into the air with an upwards slash then jumped after it and slashed it repeatedly, killing the demon. He landed back on the ground and was forced to block an attack from one of them, before stabbing it, then repeating the motion so fast that it looked like he had multiple arms! Once that one was dealt with the non human quickly fired a charged shot from his guns, to delay the third lesser stygian and cut the fourth one up with several spinning slashes, each one more deadly than the last as they gained momentum. The final lesser stygian was sent flying into the air by an upwards slash then split in half by a heavy downwards swing!
Three more identical demons popped out of the ground. “Switch!” Shouted Sunset as she ran past, firing sunshine dawn rifle style as she did so. When she reached the demons, the Kamen Rider switched her weapon in its sword mode slashing at them, each of which gave off a burst of red lightning. One of the demons then tried to attack her from behind and got a roundhouse kick to the face for its trouble. Sunset then jumped back and opened her sword’s hand author by pulling its thumb and scanned the active ring.
[COME ON AND SLASH SHAKE HANDS: ACTIVE SLASH STRIKE!]
The active glyph flashed on the sword’s hand author as the blade was covered in red lightning that made it several times its original length. “Lightning slash!” Symbol spun around cutting all three of the lesser stygians in half, making them exploding in balls of fire!
Several seconds later a new demon and neither of them had seen before pulled itself from the ground.
It looked like a lesser stygian with black hair, a half skull mask on its face, with a much bigger blade arm instead of a club and a shield, this is the death knight.
“Your up next!” Shouted Dante as he ran past Symbol. He brought his sword around the but the demon blocked the blow with its shield. “Ah! Tough guy!” Dante brought his sword around it an upwards slash only for it to once again bounce off the shield, getting a bit frustrated Dante made the first error, he went for a spinning slash, but it was caught on the monster’s shield jarring his arm, he was unable to recover before the demon gave him a strong slash to the chest, sending him into a wall. “Shit!” Muttered Dante as it looked up and saw the demon getting ready to attack again.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: VERY NICE: ACTIVE S LEVEL SPELL: THE BEST!]
Symbol came down with a flying kick. “Active thunder kick!” Her foot covered in red lightning, it slammed into the demon’s shield and sent it skidding back. Wizard’s lenses went wide in shock when she saw that the shielded didn’t have a scratch! “Dante lets try a pincer attack!”
“Ok!” Dante came at it from behind jumping into the air and bringing his sword down in the overhead swing it was blocked but that was expected.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: SLASHER PLEASE!]
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: VERY NICE: SLASHER B LEVEL SPELL: THE BEST!]
Symbol put her claws together and spun like a drill with green energy shrouding her form ripping right through the monster. “Glad that's over.” She said as she landed back on the ground.
“We’ve gotta find a better way to take care of those things.” Hissed out Dante, that had taken a lot more energy than he'd like to us to take down a single demon. He looked at the picture. “What are you trying to show us?” He walked over to the photo and looked at the bottom of the frame that looked like his tattoo. Reaching out he placed his hand on it and it lit up with red energy that stopped Dante from moving said hand! “Argh!” He shouted as red demonic power lanced up his arm.
“DANTE!” Sunset ran towards, him but a red beam shot out of the picture and into the wizard driver.
The sword started to transform, turning into a long heavy axe that would be called arbiter, while Ruby felt her body started it transform her driving shouting:
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: GIGA PLEASE: BREAK THROUGH!]
A green glyph appeared below her, it was a green G in an orange circle inside a green eight pointed star inside an orange circle. It rose up through her. First the armour on her boots turned dark green and became much heavier, the save happened to her skin armour. Then the armour on the back of her hands turned dark green and became thicker, morphing so that it covered her fingers and knuckles as well. Her suit’s lower arms turned dark green, as did her forearm armour, which also turned thicker and her chestplate turned from a bronze coin to a bronze square. Her shoulder armour turned dark green and became a pair of dark green 3d cubes. Her overcoat turned dark green, her helmet became bright green and her faceplate turned amber, also it morphed into a square. On her left middle finger was a silver ring with a green gem in the centre that had an orange border. Her left ring chain now had two slots and the active ring was in the first.
Now she was Sunset shimmer aka Kamen Rider Symbol Giga Style. Sunshine dawn shifted, its handle extending, while the blade flipped around to that it was now pointed downwards, this is sunshine dawn axe style.
Another death knight burst from the ground.
Dante charged swing arbiter around, with a loud clang it smashed the death knights shield sending cracks spiralling through it, two more heavy swings smashed the shield to pieces!
Symbol then dash past him and swung her axe around the first hit caved in the monster’s ribs, the second tore off a leg and the third sent it flying. She then pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the giga ring.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: GIGA C RANK SPELL!]
The giga glyph winked into being bellow the girl as green aura gather around her fist. “Giga punch!” Drawing back her fist she nailed the demon with a punch that was strong enough to turn its body into ash.
The two were given no break as four lesser stygians burst from the ground.
The Kamen Rider and non human nodded at each other, Dante attacked two of the lesser stygians, he shot one with a charged shot from his twin guns, before sending the other into the air with an upwards slash from his sword, jumped after it turning the sword into arbiter as he did so. Then sending the lesser stygian crashing to the ground with an over head swing the demon being cut in half as he did so. Landing back of the ground Dante parried an attack from the other lesser stygian, forcing its club up he slashed it several times with his sword, then sent it flying into the air with an upwards swing and bombarded it with bullets, eventually killing said monster.
Symbol blocked an attack with her axe’s shaft, before kicking the lesser stygian in the torso sending it flying. Then she felt something it her shoulder, glancing behind her Symbol saw that the other lesser stygian had hit her from behind, yet she hardly felt it! “So I’m slower in this form but stronger and have better defence!” Pressing on the right shift lever twice she scanned the giga ring.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: GIGA B RANK SPELL!]
The giga seal appeared below her and metal covered Symbol's left hand and forearm, before she punched the demon in the chest, her fist went right through it and out the other side, before she threw the already dead demon into its identical twin. It got back up just in time to see Ruby’s foot take its head off.
Then a pair of death knights burst from the ground. Sunset looked at Dante and nodded to the one on the left he responded by charging at the one on the right. Turning his sword into his axe he swung the weapon, sending the axe head flying off, it slammed into the monsters shield staggering it. Dante then slammed the axe on the ground sending a wave of demonic energy towards the demon which was fired into the air! The man then leapt after it and smashed it into the ground with arbiter, the impact being enough to kill the demon.
Sunset used three slow blows from her axe to smash her death knight’s shield to fragments, before she pulled sunshine dawn's blade, turning it from an axe into a spear. Taking a stance she jabbed it into the death knight several times before pulling open the hand author and scanned the giga ring.
[COME ON AND STAB SHAKE HANDS: GIGA STAB STRIKE!]
The glyph flashed on the hand author before green energy covered the spear. “Thrust of giga!” She drove the weapon forwards, it pierce the death knight and exploded! Seconds later motes of light gather in the Kamen Riders hand and reformed into the sunshine dawn spear style.
Suddenly the two of them heard the sound of a child giggling. “Who's there?” Came from Dante. They ran through a door and down a corridor which suddenly extended away, revealing a hole in the floor which they dropped into. “Woah!” Shouted Dante as he landed on his feet, only for Sunset to land on top of him.
She got up seconds later. “I’m sorry!” The whole sealed itself and they had to go through a hole in the wall, through a door and down another hole. Before climbing some stairs of rubble and back into the entrance hall which they had first come in to!
“What the-?!” Sunset didn’t get a chance to say anything else as a death knight and three lesser stygians burst from the ground. Dante turned his sword into his axe and charged at the death knight. He slammed it into the ground and sent a wave of energy at the demonic knight which was sent flying into the air and Dante followed it. He sent to back to the ground with an overhead swing before slashing his axe in the air causing the head to fly off and cave in the monster’s head!
Symbol was having a bit of trouble, she slashed at one lesser stygian, breaking its arm, but was hit by the other two. Another got several broken ribs from sunshine dawn axe style, but once again Symbol received several hits. “I can barely feel those, but my aura’s going down slowly. Time to change things up a bit!” Symbol opened her weapon’s hand author by pulling its thumb and scanned the giga ring.
[COME ON AND SMASH SHAKE HANDS: GIGA SMASH STRIKE!]
The giga glyph flash on the hand another as green energy flowed into the axe. “Circle of the giga!” Symbol spin around in a circle the axe’s blade left an semi solid after image that formed a circle around her, forcing the lesser stygians to back off. Symbol then took the giga ring from her left middle finger and put it on the second slot on the left ring chain and took the active ring from the fire slot. Putting it on her left middle finger she pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
The active seal appeared to the Kamen Riders left and passed through her, returning her to her active style. “That's better.” Muttered Symbol as she felt her armour become much lighter once again! One of the lesser stygians attacked, only to get a sword of lightning to the face. Symbol twisted out of the way of the other one and round housed it into its identical brother. Symbol quickly pressed down on the left shift leave four times and scanned the active ring across the hand author.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: VERY NICE: ACTIVE S RANK SPELL: THE BEST!]
The active glyph winked in being bellow Symbol, she crouched forwards on her left legs as it was surrounded by bright red lightning. She flipped forwards. “Active thunder kick!” Her foot came down on the head of one lesser stygian, smashing right through it and into the next one frying it.
“Hahahahahha Wooah!” Came the laughter.
Dante and Sunset looked up the left stairway and saw two ghostly children, play sword fighting. “This way, Dante.”
“Ok! Raaaa! Hahahah, can’t catch me!” They ran through a door that was instantly covered by red energy.
“Dante? Did I hear that right?” Dante asked Sunset.
“Well if you didn’t then we both have hearing problems.” Came the response. The two of them ran up the stairs and two the door. “Let's break it down!” Shouted Sunset.
“Wait!” Dante grabbed her shoulder. “I've seen this type of energy, it can’t be broken down with swords or guns!”
“Oh, what about axe’s then?”
“That's actually a good idea.” Dante turned the sword into the axe and smash right through the door. “It worked!” They followed the ghostly children down the hall and to the right.
Before taking another left and into a bedroom, out of the ground popped three death knights. “GET OUT OF THE WAY!” Dante charged with arbiter swinging. He smashed it down sending one into the air, before ramming the demonic weapon into the second death knight, only to get hit from behind by the third. The second then attacked him from the front while the other gave him a shield bash to the back.
Sunset placed the active ring back in the left ring chain’s first slot and took the giga ring from the second slot, placing it on her left middle finger. She pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: GIGA PLEASE: BREAK THROUGH!]
Transforming into her giga style she ran to help Dante but was blocked by the first death knight he had attacked!
“Move it! Giga slam!” She pressed down on the left shift lever thrice and scanned the giga ring.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: GIGA A RANK SPELL!]
The giga glyph appeared under her and she gathered the energy into her axe, before slamming it down! The death knight tried to block but her axe ripped through it like wet paper! She ran over to Dante, who was being used as a pinball by the death knights. “DANTE Calm down!” She shouted as she brought her axe around into the side of the death knight that was behind him.
“Why should I?!” Demanded Dante, as he just managed to block an attack with arbiter.
“Because I know that would could beaten these two easily if you were fighting with a clear head!” Symbol punched the death knight in the face, before she opened her weapon’s hand author by pulling the thumb and scanned the giga ring
[COME ON AND SMASH SHAKE HANDS: GIGA SMASH STRIKE!]
The giga glyph flash on sunshine dawn's axe styles's hand author as green aura gathered in the weapon’s blade. “Now get down! Circle of the giga!” Symbol spun around and the axe left behind a trail of semi solid green aura that formed into a circle which expanded outwards at a rapid pace, Dante was only just able to duck in time as the attack ripped the two death knight to bits. When he looked up he saw Symbol offering a hand to him which he happily took.
“Sorry about that it's just-”
“Your so close to answers that you feel like you’ll do anything to find them.” Dante looked at his first friend in curiosity. “Total amnesia remember? I’d do anything within reason to get my memories back.” Dante nodded. Suddenly the two ghostly children appeared and crawled under the bed.
“That was me! I remember this!” Dante walked towards the bed crouching down as he did so. Reaching under the bed he found a red wooden shield with a mark that looked like his tattoo on the front of it. As they stared at it, the both of them were suddenly in a red glowing tunnel with a white light at the end.
“You don’t remember me?” Came an echo of Vergil’s voice.
The Kamen Rider and non human were in a place that was messed up even by Limbo standards. It looked like an ocean with a blue sky, in the centre of which was a chained down statue of a man with snake like hair. They were standing on a floating building that had been broken up into pieces!
“Where are we?” Muttered Dante.
“No clue.” replied Sunset. “But I think that we should head towards that statue.” They hopped across two island, when something happened. Dante’s sword turned into a demonic whip that would be named the demon pull.
Meanwhile Sunset's active ring started to glow. “Well, want do you want old friend?” Muttered the Kamen Rider as she changed forms.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
After the active glyph had finished its job Ruby noticed that a new slot had appeared on the right ring chain in which was a red ring, with an orange stone in the centre of it that looked like a chain, it was also glowing. “New spell achieve? Alright!” Cheered Sunset as she took the ring and placed it on her right middle finger, before pressing down on the right shift lever and scanning the new ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BIND PLEASE]
The sound of a chain came from the belt as a glyph appeared to the Kamen Riders right. It had an orange chain in the centre, inside an orange circle inside an orange eight pointed star which was inside an orange circle. It moved over her, first her overcoat snapped shut, it bore an orange diamond with circle outlines and a black chain in the centre of it. Her left shoulder guard turned orange and grey outwards a bit, the bodysuits lower left arm turned orange as did her forearm guard, her palm now had an orange circle with silver outlines on it.
Dante shot the demon pull and it grabbed onto a piece of the next island, while Symbol held up her forearm and fired a chain from it. The two of them pulled another platform from the island and jumped across. “Oh yeah!” Shouted Dante. They jumped across, the ran up a flight of stairs, Dante used the demon pull to get the next platform, they then jumped off a floating door and ran up another flight of stairs, onto what looked like a floor, with four red circles on it. Both expected to have to fight, only to be shocked when nothing appeared.
“That was somewhat anticlimactic.” Symbol used another chain to get the next platform for them to use. Before Dante used the demon pull to move the platform. They ran along a makeshift pathway.
“Out you come!” Dante used the demon pull to get another platform from the side of a building. Two more platforms later and they had their first demon fight as a bathos appeared. “Get over here!” Dante used the demon pull to tank the demon down and slashed it to bits with his sword.
A lesser stygian tried to attack him from behind but was grabbed by Symbol's chain and pulled over to her, she started to slash it several times before pressing down on the left shift lever and scanned the bind ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: BIND C LEVEL SPELL!]
The chain emerged from her hand a wrapped around the demon rapidly crushing it to dust. Two more lesser stygians and a bathos appeared. Wizard’s used the chain to yank the bathos down and slashed it several times with her sword cutting the demon’s wings off. She then quickly opened sunshine dawn blade styles's hand author by pulling the thumb and scanned the bind ring.
[COME ON AND SLASH SHAKE HANDS: BIND SLASH STRIKE!]
The sword segmented becoming a dagger whip blade that wrapped around the Bathos before spinning it while it was torn to shreds. Dante yanked the first lesser stygian to him with the demon pull and smashed its head in with arbiter, before he sent the other into the air with an upwards swing from his sword and slashed it to bits in the air.
Two more jumped and they were at the point where one of the chains was attached to the ground it was glowing with the same red energy that kept the door shut earlier. “What now?” Asked Dante.
“Arbiter broke through the barrier around the door so it should be able to break this rock.” Replied Sunset.
Dante did so and the rock instantly broke under the mighty battle axe, the statue slowly turned its head towards them, its eyes glowing before they were suddenly back in the red tunnel.
“How do you know our names?” Came the echo of Dante’s voice.
“At least give me a chance to show you.” Said Vergil’s echo several seconds later. Then they were back in the bedroom.
“Was that a dream?” Asked Sunset in confusion.
Dante pulled out his sword and changed it into the demon pull. “If it was then we can still use the power we got in it.” Dante pointed out the Sunset was still in her active bind style. “Ok, so what else have you got?” Sunset then glared at Dante.
“Why you hipkreyol!” She mentally growled. They jumped down a hole and through a door, before Limbo destroyed the windows and floor just in front of them! Sunset used her chain to get a piece of the wall out as a platform. She then had to used it to get another platform, move the platform and get a third platform.
Dante then smashed through a door with arbiter, before a ghostly woman came around the door in front of them. “SPARDA! They’re here! THEY’RE HERE! They’ve found us! We’ve got to get out, NOW! Come on, quickly!”
“What the hell?” Muttered Dante as they followed her to the right.
“Who in the heck was that?!” Demanded Symbol as she followed him. Right back into the entrance hall. “OH COME ON!” Suddenly it broke apart into several floating island and a pair of shielded bathos appeared.
Dante used the demon pull to yank its shield out of the grip of the first one, before yanking it down to his level and killing it with his sword. Symbol did the same with her chain and sunshine dawn sword style. Two lesser stygians jumped over to their platform. Symbol pressed down on the right shift lever twice and scanned the bind ring on the driver’s hand author.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: BIND B LEVEL SPELL!]
Power gathered in the chain as it was pulled back and swung around in a wide arc. “Chain whippier!” It slammed into the lesser stygians torso’s and sent them flying off the platform.
“Nice!” Commented Dante.
Looking further ahead they could see the ghostly woman. “No no no! Come on. How did they find us?”
“I know that voice.” Murmured Dante as they jumped from on platform to the next to get back to the main building.
“Me too.” Added Symbol.
Dante used arbiter to break down a door and the took a right turn before cutting left and into a room with another photo in it, this one was of a red haired woman wearing a black dress and holding a blue rose, the mark at the bottom glowed blue. “Is that, Mom?” Questioned Dante his eyes watering. He squinted at the picture and saw that she had the same necklace that he wore around her neck.
They could almost hear her voice saying. “I love you Dante, Sunset.”
“Wait a minute! Why do I remember her?” Questioned Wizard.
“Fucking demons!” Growled Dante as several lesser stygians burst from the ground. He ran forwards sending one into the air with an upwards swing from his sword before jumping after it, two quick slashes and a spinning upwards slash were delivered. At that moment a death knight burst from the ground! Dante went after it and started to hammer away with arbiter.
Sunset meanwhile blocked a lesser stygian’s club bash then booted it in the nuts. She twisted around and beheaded the second lesser stygian, reaching down to her left ring chain, placing the active ring in the first slot she took the giga ring from the second slot and placed it on her left middle finger. Sunset then pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the giga ring on the hand author.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: GIGA PLEASE: BREAK THROUGH!]
Now in her strength from she punched the other lesser stygian as it came up behind her. Her fist broke right through its chest causing the demon to turn to dust.
Dante ran over to the painting, remembering what happened with the painting of his father he pressed his hand against the emblem at the bottom. “Wonder what this is going to give us.” Blue energy arched up his arm and transformed his sword into a light blue scythe, which then sent a beam of yellow energy into Sunset's driver.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
A yellow glyph appeared above her, it was a yellow S inside a purple circle inside a yellow eight pointed star that was inside a second yellow circle. It zipped down through her much faster than the other glyphs.
Sunset's helmet turned yellow and the faceplate morphed into a purple upside down triangle. Her bodysuit turned yellow and her chestplate into a bronze diamond. Her shoulder guards thinned and turned pointy and yellow. While Sunset's suit’s forearms turned yellow and the forearm armour thinned. The armour on the back of her hands turned yellow and became thinner retracting from her hands. Her shin armour turned yellow as did her boots armour both of which became lighter. Her overcoat also turned yellow and the left ring chain grew a third slot. On Sunset's left middle finger turned yellow and had a purple triangle shape gem in the centre. Sunshine dawn turned into a yellow pistol with a purple grip and a black hand author for the hammer.
This is Sunset Shimmer also known as Kamen Rider Symbol swift style.
Both glanced over their shoulders when three lesser stygians pulled themselves from the ground. Dante charged forwards spinning his scythe continually, ripping the lesser stygians to bits with it.
Four more then appeared, Symbol ran forwards and jumped over them shooting with sunshine dawn gun style as she did so. “So this form increases my speed and jumping height. I bet that I’ve got less strength and armour as a result!” Thought the Kamen Rider she landed on the ground and pressed down on the left shift lever before scanning the swift ring.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: SWIFT C RANK SPELL!]
The swift glyph flashed under her feet and Symbol punched so hard and fast that it looked like she had multiple arms, needless to say the four lesser stygians didn’t last very long under the barrage.
Four more lesser stygians popped out the ground, the two looked at each other and nodded. Dante turned the scythe back into the sword and crouched channelling power into it, while Symbol opened sunshine dawn gun styles's hand author by pulling the thumb and scanned the swift ring.
[COME ON AND BLAST SHAKE HANDS: SWIFT BLASTER STRIKE!]
A swift glyph flashed on the hand author as several yellow bolts shot out the gun and slammed into the lesser stygians as Dante slashed his sword sending three waves of energy at them, ripping them to bits! “Drivestorm!”Shouted both Kamen Rider and non human.
“So what are you gonna call the scythe?” Asked Symbol.
“I dunno.” Replied Dante. “Your better at naming things so what do you think?”
“How about Osiris?” Suggested Sunset.
“Nice!”
They ran out of the room and took a left turn. “You! Get after her! Down here, cover the doors! MOVE!” Came a ghostly voice of what sounded like a riot squad captain.
“Uh! Get away from me! Get away from me!” They arrived in an open space and started jumping to several platforms that looked like they were once a staircase. At the last one Dante used the demon pull to break up part of the main building into a platform, which they jumped to and he used the grapple like weapon again to move the platform to the pain buildings, before he could pull out arbiter, Sunset took of the swift ring and put it in the third slot on the left ring chain. She then took out the giga ring from the second slot and put it on her left middle finger, pressed down the on the left shift lever and scanned it.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: GIGA PLEASE: BREAK THROUGH!]
The giga glyph winked into being and rose up through her, transforming Sunset into her giga style. She then pulled open sunshine dawn's axe styles's hand author and scanned the giga ring.
[COME ON AND SMASH SHAKE HANDS: GIGA SMASH STRIKE!]
“Circle of the giga!” The giga seal flashed on the axe’s hand author as power gather within it, she spun around, smashing the door to pieces with her weapon. But the way forwards was blocked by blue vines.
“Great! What now?!” Demanded Dante.
“If arbiter and my giga style can break red energy, then osiris and swift style should be able to destroy these blue vines.” Stated Sunset.
Dante turned his sword into his scythe and spun it destroying the vines! “Good idea!”
They took a left and Dante used arbiter to break through some rubble, following the hall around to the right they entered another room with something glowing on the left side of the floor. Dante ran over to it and picked it up. “A blue rose?” He questioned.
“Wasn’t your mom holding one in the painting?” Asked Symbol.
“Yeah.” Replied the non human.
“Not again!” Shouted Symbol as they were suddenly in the red tunnel again.
“At least give me a chance to show you both.” Was what Vergil’s echo said.
Then they were back in the weird broken up building place with the statue and standing on a building wall. Suddenly Dante’s sword turned into what looked like a snake head. Symbol felt herself transforming.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
The active glyph appeared to her left and passed through her body. Then the driver spoke up again.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
A glyph appeared to her right. It was a purple boot with a golden spike on the heel, inside a purple circle inside a golden eight pointed star inside a second purple circle. It then moved through her. When it finished Symbol's overcoat now bore a purple square with silver outlines and a downwards point in the bottom line. In the centre of it was a black silhouette of a person jumping and connected to the bottom corners were two halves of a golden V. Her shin armour was now bright purple, her boots were golden with purple armour on the top of them and coming out of her ankles was a pair of golden spikes that curved upwards and reached her knees. On her right middle finger was a red ring with a purple boot shaped gem in the centre of it and her right ring chain grew a third slot.
“New form? Cool!” They came to a gap that had a rock over it and was too long for them to cross.
“Lets see what this thing does.” Dante hooked his angelic lift onto a rock on the other side and it pulled him across while Symbol hopped over with ease. Only land on her head rather than her feet.
“Owie!!” Exclaimed Sunset.
“You ok?” Asked Dante as he helped her back up.
“Yeah, just gotta get used to the new jumping power.” They got across the next gap in the same way, this time Sunset just stumbled a little. They ran around what looked like a cobblestone street and Dante used the angel lift to get up the next platform while Ruby tried to jump up.
Key word: Tried. Her jump was a bit short!
“SUNSET!” Shouted Dante as he watch the girl fall to her doom.
Sunset quickly pressed down on the right shift lever twice and scanned the boost ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: BOOST B LEVEL SPELL!]
The boost glyph appeared below her and Sunset jump of it! “Air step!” This time she was able to reach where Dante was.
“Nice trick.” He commented.
“Thanks.” Dante had to use the angel lift four times to get to the next platform. “How are you going to get across?!” He shouted back
“Lets try this. Atmosphere kick!” Sunset pressed down on the right shift lever four times and scanned the boost ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: VERY NICE: BOOST S LEVEL SPELL: THE BEST!]
The boost glyph flashed in below the Kamen Rider, she crouched down and jumped! It was so high that Dante lost track of her.
“...That's got to be a world record” Suddenly he noticed that Sunset was coming down so fast that he feet were glowing red hot! “Shit!” He dived out of the way just in time to see Wizard come crashing down!
“Nailed it!”
*BAM!*
Dante punched her in the faceplate. “Warn me next time!”
“Sorry!” Chuckled Symbol , she would have done the same, that or sqeed and ranted about how cool the move was. They ran up another flight of stairs and Dante used the angel lift to jump a gap and into a lesser stygian knocking it over the edge in the process. Dante had to use the angel lift four times to reach the next section while Symbol used the Atmosphere kick.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: VERY NICE: BOOST S LEVEL SPELL: THE BEST!]
When they arrived a lesser stygian burst from the ground and a pair of bathos appeared in the air. Dante used the angel lift to get level with the bathos he swing osiris around chopping one of them in half, before he spun the blade in a vertical circle killing the other.
Symbol kicked the lesser stygian in the face, before round housing it in the ribs sending it flying. She jumped after it overtaking the demon, before spinning around, flipping over and slamming her heel into its face as she did so pulping its head.
Three more came from the ground, Dante was about to run at them when Symbol stopped him. “I want to see if this is good in combat.” Dante nodded. Wizard pressed down on the right shift lever four times and scanned the boost ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: VERY NICE: BOOST S LEVEL SPELL: THE BEST!]
“Atmosphere kick!” The boost glyph flashed below her and she leapt into the air.
Suddenly Dante realised something, when Symbol came back down he’d only be a few feet from the impact point. “Oh no!” He got off the platform using the angel lift before he used the demon pull to get a platform beneath him. Just as Sunset came back down with a loud earth shattering *BOOM!* One of the lesser stygians was crushed and the other two were blown off the edge of the platform. “Why are you over there?” Asked Sunset when she saw Dante.
“I don’t want to get blown off!” He shouted back. Running up a flight of stairs he smashed the rock that was holding the chain with arbiter. “What am I unleashing?” He muttered as the statue turned to look at him and Sunset who had just ran up the stairs.
Seconds later they were in the red tunnel.
“Dante, I don’t think you understand what is at stake.” Came Kat’s echo.
Then they were back in the room, with a shielded bathos appearing. “I feel insulted.” Muttered Sunset at the rather pathetic attempt on their life. The demon seamed to get offended and threw a grenade at them, which Dante knocked back by spinning his scythe in a vertical forwards circle. After recovering from said explosion the shielded bathos had just enough time for its eyes to widen as Sunset's kick sent it flying to the ground, before she jumped off the ceiling and stomped on its head, pulping said appendage!
Then three lesser stygians and four shielded bathos appeared. “Happy?” Asked Dante while glaring at Sunset. “Yeah.” If she had a face then Sunset would be drooling making Dante sweat drop at the kill happy girl. She leapt into the air, kicking one of the bathos into a wall, then bouncing over to the next and giving it and downwards kick into the ground. Sunset then pressed down on the right shift lever once and scanned the boost ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: BOOST C LEVEL SPELL!]
The boost glyph flashed under the Kamen Rider as she started to bounce back and forth between the airborne demons killing all of them!
On the ground Dante sent a lesser stygian into the air with an upwards slash from his sword, before slamming arbiter into another with several heavy strikes, right before her caved up the one that he’d sent into the air with his scythe. The last tried to attack but was sent into the air by osiris being spun like a propeller.
He was about to run out of the room when he noticed that Symbol wasn’t following. “Sunset? You ok?” She didn’t answer and was looking at a photo on the ground. Dante reached down a picked it up, it was of his dad, mom two boys, one with black hair and the other with white, Symbol was leaning on the wall in the background. “I remember.” Thought Dante. “I remember my mother, her name was Eva. She gave this to me.” Dante fingered his necklace. “I had a brother too.” Two kids sparring with wooden swords, the black haired boy helped the other off the ground. “We were a family.” Family was standing on cliff. “I had no idea of the danger we were in.” Clouds turned into demonic face. “Then the demons found us.” A bald man walked through a door. “When they broke in, I saw him.” He ripped out Eva’s heart with a demon holding young Dante back. “She gave her life so that we could escape.” Young Dante held Eva’s body. “I will never forget what he did to her.” Father and Dante were in front of a gate. “Our father, Sparda took my brother and I away. He separated us, hid us safely among the humans, wiped our memories to protect us. That's way it wall went black until now.”
“I remember now.” Thought Symbol. “I arrived out of a vortex from another dimension with no memories of my past.” A blue vortex opened and Symbol shot out slamming into the ground like a meteor. “Sparda found me.” The man walked up to the Kamen Rider just as she blacked out. “Eva nursed me back to health” The red haired woman was scene sitting by Symbol's bed as she wrapped the girl in bandages. “I became like an older sister to Dante and Vergil, to the point where they actually called me that!” Symbol was seen sparing with the two boys. “Then the demons came!” Enter the bald man. “They broke in and Eva was going to give up her life so that we could get away.” Symbol standing outside the mansion facing away. “I couldn’t do it! I couldn’t leave the one that had treated me with such kindness to die.” She turned back. “I was to late!” The bald man ripped out Eva’s heart as Symbol charged. “I attacked the leader in rage but he was to powerful.” Bald man punches Symbol in the gut. “My strongest attack clashed with one of his and ripped open a time vortex that I feel through.” A blue vortex appears sucking Symbol in. “The next thing I know is I’m in Limbo with an adult Dante showing up after a month.” Sunset and Dante reuniting. "The vortex must have mess with my memories, that's way it all went black until now.”
Suddenly, Dante dropped the photo, snapping both of them back to reality. The man staggered away robotically, while Sunset picks up the photo and follows after him.
“You ok?” She asked.
“Yeah, just, shocked.” They took a left and slid down a slope, before Dante had to use the angel lift thrice to get around a bend. While Sunset pressed down on the right shift lever once before scanning the boost ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: BOOST C LEVEL SPELL!]
“Ricochet parade” She jumped from wall to wall, a boost glyph winking in under her feet each time she did so. They took a right and slid down a slope right onto a platform that looked like it was once part of some stairs. Suddenly the place started to shift, Dante used the angel lift to get to the next platform and Sunset jumped after him, he then used the demon pull to get another platform closer, before an island shifted between them and the main house. The man the demon pull to twist it around and pulled himself up with the angel lift, while Ruby followed him. “We’re getting outta here!” “You won’t get any argument from me!” Sunset put the boost ring back on the right ring chain’s third slot and took the bind ring from the second slot, putting it on her right middle finger. She then pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BIND PLEASE!]
The sound of a chain being unwound came from the driver as the bind glyph appeared to her ring and passed through the Kamen Rider, she then used the chain to pull a platform closer. After that it turned into a sprint, as Limbo below out the windows, the floors started to fall away and the house rocked back and forth.
Sunset replaced the active ring on her left ring chain’s first slot and took the swift ring from the third slot, putting it on her left middle finger and pressing down on the left shift lever and scanning the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
The swift glyph appeared above her and zipped down through the girl, changing Symbol's into her swift style. She then pressed down on the left shift lever once more and scanned the ring again.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: SWIFT B RANK SPELL!]
“Lets go! Swift dash!” She grabbed Dante by the back of his coat as the swift glyph flashed below her feet and she zipped forward at super speed!
“Woah! Keep goin’” Shouted Dante as they reached the gateway in record time, quickly vanishing from Limbo’s reach and into the real world.
Real world:
Dante and Symbol rematerialized both looking at Vergil in a different light.
“Your our brother.” Dante stated more than asked.
“Your twin brother. I’ve been looking for the both of you for a long time now.”
“And she’s our sister?” Asked Dante.
“By blood no, but Sunset might as well be our sister.” Vergil walked forwards, reaching into his jacket and pulling out a blue crystal necklace. “Our mother gave these to us. I think she knew this moment would come. That we’d find each other.”
“And your father, Sparda?” Asked Dante.
Vergil got a sad look on his face. “Banished forever. A fate worse than death, they say. He’s never coming back.”
*WHAM!*
Sunset dealt with her anger by knocking down a wall. “I want to know more. Where we come from, what happened to us. Above all, I want to know who is responsible for all this!” She growled out.
“Ditto!” Agreed Dante.
Vergil nodded, Dante and Sunset turned and walked off with Vergil following, but not before giving Kat the ‘I told you so look’
“Do you remember this place?” Questioned Vergil as he lead is brother and sister into a park.
“Yeah I remember coming here.” Replied Dante, as he looked around.
“So do I, sort of!” Replied Sunset Shimmer also known as Kamen Rider Symbol currently in her active style.
“Our mother used to bring us here.” Explained Vergil.
“Tell us everything!” Ordered Dante.
“Somethings have always been.” Began Vergil was they walked past a wall with angels battling demons painted on it. “There have always been angels and there have been demons and they have always been at war.” Vergil stopped walking and looked up at the Limbo city bank. “Nine millennia ago, one demon rose through the ranks to take power over the dark hordes. The strongest, the cruellest: Mundus.” Moving in front of some swings, that were in front of a wall that had an image of a male demon kissing a female angel, Vergil moved on: “But Mundus did not rise alone. At this right hand was his most trusted lieutenant, his blood brother-”
Dante leaned on the swing bar, while Sunset sat on the remaining swing. “Sparda.” He stated.
Vergil nodded. “But Sparda betrayed his brother, he fell in love with an Angel, Eva.”
“I’m gonna go on a wild guess and say that Mundus didn’t take that too well.” Drawled Sunset.
Vergil nodded. “An understatement if I’ve ever heard one.” Sitting down on a nearby bench he continued. “The secret union between Angel and Demon was, inconceivable. But it happened and with it came new life, twin boy’s.” He nodded to Dante. “You and I. A hybrid of the warring Angel and Demon races.” Behind him on the wall was graffiti of two new born babies.
“And me?” Asked Sunset.
Vergil hesitated. “When we went into hiding, Sparda found a teenage armoured girl that was neither human, angel or demon. His honour wouldn't allow him to leave it, so he took the creature in and raised her as a daughter.”
Symbol was somewhat disappointed. “So you don’t know where I come from?”
“I’m sorry Symbol, but no.” Replied Vergil sadly.
“You ok?” Asked Dante when Symbol turned away.
“Yeah, I’m fine. It, just, I thought I might finally be able to find out who or what I was, I’m so close yet so far, to finding the people who gave birth to me! Never mind.” She glanced at Vergil. “Continue, B-B-B.”
Vergil wave a chuckle. “You don’t have to acknowledge the siblings bond just yet. Anyways; When Mundus learn of Sparda’s betrayal, his fury knew no limit.” Looking at another wall this one had graffiti of a man in a suit, with purple skin and his head cut open. He was holding a bleeding Eva. “He hunted the lovers down. Eva was murdered by his own hand, and for Sparda he demanded a more brutal fate: Endless punishment and pain.” Next to Mundus image was one of a black demon in chains. “But even as Eva was destroyed and Sparda imprisoned for eternity, each knew that the seeds for their revenge had already been sown.” Vergil stopped walking and turned to his siblings. “Because according to legend, the only beings that can slay a demon king are either Nephilim, a hybrid of angel and demon, or a Kamen Rider, which is a being that looks to be made of armour and control’s its powers through a belt!” Both Dante and Symbol's eyes / lenses widened.
“Those hybrids and the Kamen Rider now exist, the three of us!” As they walked into a tunnel Vergil continued his explanation. “Mundus believed that only one child had been born and that the Kamen Rider was destroyed when she tried to avenge the angel that had nurse her back to health. But there were two Nephilim and the Kamen Rider had lived. Each of the sons had been hidden well. Sparda armed his sons, the Rebellion for Dante and the Yamato for Vergil, while Symbol had her own weapon a shape changing device called sunshine dawn."
“At least now we know what Dante’s sword is called.” Muttered Sunset.
Dante stopped walking, wanting to make sure that he had gotten everything right. “So Mundus killed our mom and imprisoned our dad.”
“Yes.”
“And we’re the offspring of an angel and a demon.”
“Demon father, angel mother. We are Nephilim. We are the only ones that can slay a demon king.”
“Good. How?” Asked Sunset, as she leaned against a wall.
Vergil opened his mouth, but was cut off.
“Daaaaannnnnnnnnnntttttttttteeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Three head whipped towards the voice, and saw a man with black bleeding eyes staggering towards them.
“A spotter! Fucking demon collaborators!” Growled Vergil as he pulled a small knife from his coat and threw it at the man, piercing it right through the head!
Sunset jumped away from the wall like it was on fire as the tunnel started to shift.
Vergil turned back to them. “Your both being dragged into Limbo! I’ll find Kat, she’ll get both of you out! Stand firm!” Vergil ran off and Dante cracked his neck.
Several shielded bathos materialized in mid-air, Dante quickly pulled out Ebony and Ivory, before opening fire on them.
“DANTE!” Shouted Sunset as she drew the sunshine dawn sword style to deflect the bullets that bounced off the shield. “We already figured out that bullets don’t work on shields you braindead idiot!” She slipped the bind ring from her right ring chain’s second slot onto her right middle finger. She then pressed down on the left shift lever, turning the hand author to the right and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BIND PLEASE!]
The bind glyph burst into being to her right and ran through Symbol, as she transformed into her active bind style. She then pressed down on the right shift lever twice and scanned the bind ring once more.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: BIND B LEVEL SPELL!]
“Chain whippier!” The bind glyph flashed below her feet and she swung the orange chain that appeared out of her left palm. It slammed into one of the shielded bathos knocking it into its friend.
Dante used the angel lift to get into the face of one and breaking it’s shield with several quick slashes while still in the air. He then spun osiris around to attack another and killed the third with another several slashes from the now named rebellion. At that moment several death knights pulled themselves from the ground and attacked. Dante used the demon pull to get one of them off balance, before sending it into the air by smashing arbiter into the ground which sent a wave of energy at it. Another attacked Dante from behind, but he ducked under it and slashed at it’s legs with rebellion.
Symbol, quickly passed her hand over the left ring chain’s first slot which caused the active ring to return to said slot, before moving her hand to the second slot, the giga ring jumped onto her left middle finger. She pressed down on her left shift lever once and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: GIGA PLEASE: BREAK THROUGH!]
Symbol then pressed down on the left shift lever once more and scanned the giga ring for a second time.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: GIGA C RANK SPELL!]
The giga glyph flashed below her feet as green energy gather around her fist “Giga punch!” The Kamen Rider slammed her fist down on the head of a lesser Stygian, before blocking a blow from a death knight, with sunshine dawn spear style’s shaft, before she pressed down on the blade, making it turn back into its axe form, trapping the demon’s blade arm! As it struggled to free itself, Sunset opened the hand author by pulling the thumb and scanned the giga ring.
[COME ON AND SMASH SHAKE HANDS: GIGA SMASH STRIKE!]
The giga glyph flashed on the hand author as power gathered in the blade. “Circle of the giga!” She spun around her axe’s blade leave a trail of semi solid green aura that damaged one hell knight, only off it to be killed by the other hell knight that the axe was dragging with it. Right before she blocked a blow from a lesser stygian and kicked it in the shin, breaking it’s leg, she rammed her elbow into its head taking it off it’s shoulders. Several lesser stygians and a hell knight pulled themselves out of the ground around Sunset. The Kamen Rider pressed down on the left shift lever our times and scanned the giga ring.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: VERY NICE: ACTIVE A RANK SPELL: THE BEST!]
The giga seal appeared below her feet, Sunset quickly charged green aura into her fists which sent out several shockwaves of green energy that killed all of the demons that were coming at her.
“Watch it!” Shouted Dante was he jumped over the shockwave. Ripping apart another lesser stygian with several quick slashes he ducked under a swing from a Hell Knight, before he jumped up and came down with arbiter smashing its shield and switching his axe for his scythe he sent the demon into the air by spinning it like a propeller. As the demon fell back down Dante spun his scythe in the other direction and tore the monster to bits.
“Sorry!” Shouted Sunset. Suddenly another demon burst from the ground, this one being heavily armoured and held a chainsaw! “I give you that Ravager!” Proclaimed the girl.
“Whatever!” Dante charged at it, pulling out rebellion, only for the thing to be faster than he thought, which ended with him getting a chainsaw through the chest!
“DANTE!” Screamed Sunset as her brother was sent flying back. Running forwards she pulled open sunshine dawn axe styles's hand author by pulling the thumb and scanned the giga ring.
[COME ON SMASH AND SHAKE HANDS: GIGA SMASH STRIKE!]
“Circle of the giga!” The giga glyph appeared below her and the Kamen Rider pulled back her weapon as aura roared into the blade, she slammed it down on the demon, which countered with its chainsaw. The two weapons slammed into each other in an explosion of sparks and steel.
Then to Sunset Shimmer's shock the chainsaw broke through her attack, shattering her axe and slamming into her chestplate. By which time it had lost most of its strength but it still sent her flying into a wall! “Owie!” She groaned as she pulled herself back to her feet. “We can’t beat it!” She muttered as Dante lashed out with his scythe, only to be overpowered by the demon and have to use the angel lift to retreat. Suddenly Sunset noticed that the active ring was glowing and she smiled softly. “You always seem to have an answer.” She removed the giga ring from her left middle finger and put it back in the second slot on the left ring chain. Before taking the active ring from the first slot and placing it on her left middle finger, she then pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
The active glyph appeared to her right and went through her, transforming the Kamen Rider into her active style. She then saw a glow coming from the right ring chain, it now had a four slot with a red ring that had a grey kite shield shaped gem in the centre of it.
“Lets hope that this does something good.” Sunset took the ring and placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the new ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: DEFEND PLEASE!]
A seal winked into being to the right of the Kamen Rider; it had a grey kite shield in the centre of it inside a circle that was coloured silver inside a grey eight pointed star inside a second silver circle. It passed over her transforming Symbol into her new style.
Her right shoulder guard turned grey with a pair of silver vertical circle wrapping around it. Her overcoats chest now bore a grey kite shield image, with silver outlines and a silver line going from each corner to the edge of the coat. A grey kite shield called the defend guard appeared in her hand. It had silver outlines and a vertical silver line going through the centre of it.
“A shield against a chainsaw?” Symbol shrugged. “This will either go really well or really bad!” The ravager charged and she pressed down on the right shift lever once and scanned the defend ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: DEFEND C LEVEL SPELL!]
“Innershine!” The defend guard glowed and summoned a square shaped wall of red and grey energy just in front of it, the chainsaw slammed into the wall, but failed to pierce through! While Symbol was forced back a few feet thanks to the force of the blow, it was better than being sent into a wall. “Ok that went well.” She swung crescent rose sword style around and slashed at the demon several times, before kicking the ravager back. She then gave it a shield bash to the face, before jumping back from a chainsaw strike and round housing it in the face. Symbol then pulled open her sword’s hand author by pulling the thumb and scanned the defend ring.
[COME ON AND SLASH SHAKE HANDS: DEFEND SLASH STRIKE!]
The defend guard vanished as the defend glyph flashed on the sword’s hand author. Grey energy covered sunshine dawn as its owner grabbed the hilt with both hands. “Take this Sword vs shield!” Symbol swung the weapon as it morphed into a large rectangle shaped grey sword with no point that could be mistaken for a slab of metal. It slammed into the ravager’s face and tore its head from its body! “And that's that!” Wizard ran over to her brother. “You ok?”
Dante pulled himself back to his feet. “Yeah.”
The ink barrier vanished and Kat was at the end of the street. “Dante, Sunset, the gateway’s ready! Come on!”
“Could you have put it closer?” Shouted Sunset.
“Why?” Asked Kat. Suddenly the road reared up, then dropped away.
“DOES THAT ANSWER YOUR QUESTION?” Demanded Sunset.
“Sorry!” Replied a sheepish Kat. “Can you get across?”
“WHAT DO YOU THINK?” Shouted Sunset.
“We’ll have to find another way around!” Added Dante. They went back the way they came, when the place started to shift.
Eight lesser stygians burst from the ground, each looking ready for a fight. Dante ran forwards he did a lot of damage by twirling around with osiris, before he sent one into the air by spinning the weapon vertically like a propeller, leapt after it and slashed at it with the scythe type weapon. He dropped to the ground and fired off several shots with ebony and ivory, killing one that he had already damaged. One of them tried to attack him from behind. Sunset Shimmer pressed down on the right shift lever twice and scanned the defend ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: DEFEND B LEVEL SPELL!]
“Spinning shield!” She threw the defend guard, it spun in a disk like fashion, cutting the demon that had been about to attack Dante in half before returning to its wielder cutting a second demon to bits as it did so, Sunset had stabbed another lesser stygian to death she held up her right arm letting the shield slam back into place.
At that moment a ravager burst from the ground. The two of them shared a nod, Dante went for the lesser stygians while Sunset took out the chainsaw demon. The Kamen Rider quickly pressed down on the right shift lever once and scanned the defend ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: DEFEND C LEVEL SPELL!]
“Innershine!” The defend guard project an energy wall, which the demon slammed into, before it was stabbed in the gut by sunshine dawn sword style. Symbol then gave it several quick slashes, before blocking a strike from the chainsaw and slamming the hilt of her sword across its face stunning the ravager. She then pulled down on the sword’s handle causing the blade to shorten and turn into a gun barrel. Several shots were fired, they broke of the demon’s chainsaw arm making it scream in pain. Symbol then opened sunshine dawn rifle style’s hand author by pulling the thumb and scanning the defend ring.
[COME ON AND SHOOT SHAKE HANDS: DEFEND SHOOTING STRIKE!]
The defend glyph appeared in front of the barrel as a ball of grey light collected in front of it. “Shield crushing shot!” Symbol pulled the trigger, firing the bullet which split into four more small bullets, they positioned themselves on each side of the ravager, before they turned into ethereal images of the defend guard, which rushed inwards crushing the demon between them!
Dante used several spinning slashes to dice up one lesser stygian, then he yanked another over to him with the demon pull before ducking under an attack from the last one so that it hit its identical counterpart in the face. He then spear one of the lesser stygians on rebellion before jabbing them so fast that it looked like he had multiple arms! With the demons dealt with for now Dante pointed. “Over there.” To a grapple point for the angel lift.
Symbol nodded. “Lets go.” She took the defend ring from her right middle finger, place it back in her right ring chain’s fourth slot, took the boost ring from the third slot, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
The sound of springs and bouncing came from the driver as the boost glyph appeared to her right and passed over her, transforming the girl into her active boost style. She crouched down and jumped up to the ledge with Dante following. They ran along the corridor behind the ledge when a ink barrier sprang up and as did a ravager.
“Leave this to me!” Ordered Dante, leaving Sunset confused, he slammed arbiter into the ground and sent a wave of demonic energy along it, throwing the demon into the air. He jumped after it and gave it several slashes with rebellion, once they were back on the ground her spun osiris like a vertical propeller, throwing the ravager into the air, before spinning it in the opposite direction and letting it fall back onto the angel weapon. It was killed when he repeated the process with his mothers gift, leaving the Nephilim exhausted.
“What was that about?” Asked Sunset.
“Sorry, I just felt so useless! You killed the last two ravager’s on your own and the first nearly killed me!” Replied Dante.
“We all make mistakes. But so long as we have family and friends to pick us back up, we can learn from them.” Came the gently reply. Dante nodded, they continued on to another ledge, where Dante had to use the angel lift thrice and Sunset followed jumping off walls to keep up. He landed of a ledge and used the demon pull to get some rock from a wall to use as another platform, several jumps later. “Another blue rose?” Questioned Dante. On top of a pillar was a blue rose, it was surrounded by two platforms that orbited it while flipping over as they did so, meaning they’d have seconds if that to jump over. Dante jumped, miss timed it Sunset jumped and tackled him onto the island.
“Think before you act!”
Dante grabbed the blue rose and they were back in the red tunnel. “I hate this!” Shouted Sunset.
“I didn’t ask for your help.” Came Dante’s echo.
Then they were back in the weird place, Dante felt the knowledge of angel lift being implanted into his head, while Sunset felt herself start to transform again.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
The swift glyph appeared above her and passed over the girl, transforming her into her swift style. Then the driver spoke up again.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: WINGS PLEASE!]
A glyph appeared above her, it was a pair of silver wings inside a red circle inside a silver eight pointed triangle inside a second red circle. The glyph then passed through her transforming the girl into her new style. First her overcoats chest turned silver and now bore a red inverted triangle, with a pair of black wings in the centre of it. Symbol's shoulder armour turned into a pair of silver domes with a pair of small silver wings in front of them that had red outlines. Also coming out of her back was a pair of silver dragon with a red membrane and black outlines.
This is Sunset Shimmer also known as Kamen Rider Symbol swift wing style. They ran along what looked to be part of a street before Dante jumped into the air, trust his arms out to the side and was propelled forwards by a burst of blue light, while Symbol jumped after him her wings gave a hard flap and sent her over the gap. It continued this way for some time without a single battle.
Dante then had to use the angel lift and the angel boost to get across one gap and Symbol pressed down on the right shift lever before scanning the wing ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: WING C LEVEL SPELL!]
The wing glyph appeared below her and her wings gave a big flap, pushing her forwards and over the gap. “Getting the hang on this.” Muttered Dante. “So am I.” Added Symbol. They ran up a flight of stairs, through a door and Dante had to use the angel boost then the demon pull to get a platform under him, while Wizard pressed down on the right shift lever twice and scanned the wing ring
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: WING B LEVEL SPELL!]
The wings gave a hard thrust propelling her into the air and then staying open letting the Kamen Rider glide across the gap. Another two flight of stairs later and they were at the rock that held the statues last chain which Dante promptly destroyed with arbiter. “What are you hiding in there?” Muttered Dante as the statue turned to look at them. It eyes glowed and they were suddenly back in the red tunnel.
“At least give me a chance to show you both.” Came Vergil’s echo. “You don’t remember me?” Came a second echo from Vergil several seconds later.
The next thing the two of the them knew, they were back in Limbo on top of the pillar. Suddenly several bathos appeared, only instead of bombs they were armed with crossbows, thus they shall be known as pathos. “Flying rats?” Muttered Dante resulting in Sunset bursting out laughing.
“I’ll take the air borne demons, you deal with the ground forces.” She ordered once her laughter was under control. Now that they were back in Limbo and not in… whatever that other place was, she could feel that he wings had gotten stronger. Strong enough to let her fly under her own power and not just glide.
She shot into the air and then came back down shooting at the pathos with sunshine dawn blaster style as she did so, they had little armour so they were quickly destroyed.
Dante cut one lesser stygian apart with several hacks from his sword, before using the angel lift to get out of the way of a blow from another demon and spinning osiris like a vertical propeller, sending it into the air, before he spun the scythe weapon in the other direction when the demon fell back onto it. Then a death knight pulled itself from the ground, Dante quickly used the demon pull to yank its shield, getting it off balance, the demon looked up just in time to arbiter slam into its ribs, three heavy blows turned them to dust and then Dante leapt into the air and came down with is father’s gift, pulping the monster’s head. He turned around to deal with the other two lesser stygians, when Sunset pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the wing ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: WING C LEVEL SPELL!]
“Wing force!” Both of her wings again bladed edges as the wing glyph flashed below her, she shot down and the two lesser stygians were bisected at the waist by the razor sharp wings. At that moment a pair of ravagers burst from the ground. “Two?! We’ve never had that before!” Shouted Symbol.
“We’ll be fine!” Assured Dante.
One of the demons charged. Symbol took the swift ring from her hand and put it back in the third slot on the left ring chain. She then took the active ring from the first slot, place it on her left middle finger, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the red ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
The active glyph appeared to her left and passed over her, transforming Symbol into her active style. She then pulled open sunshine dawn sword styles's hand author and scanned the active ring.
[COME ON AND SLASH SHAKE HANDS: ACTIVE SLASH STRIKE!]
The active glyph appeared around the sword’s blade and red lightning covered it. “Lightning slash!” Symbol ran forwards she twist to the side at the last second and used the lightning covered sword to force the ravager’s chainsaw to the side, while she pressed down on the left shift lever twice and scanned the active ring.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: ACTIVE B RANK SPELL!]
The active glyph flashed again as red lightning surrounded her left fist, which she threw into the demon’s gut, knocking it back. With some breathing room the Kamen Rider too the defend ring from its place in the fourth slot of the right ring chain before placing it on her right middle finger, she then pressed down on the corresponding shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: DEFEND PLEASE!]
The defend glyph appeared to her right and passed over her transforming the girl into her active defend style. The ravager shakes off the blow and brings its chainsaw around which was blocked by the defend guard, before it was relieved of its entire arm! Sunset then pressed down on the right shift lever thrice and scanned the defend ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: DEFEND A LEVEL SPELL!]
The guard sent grey entire from the blows it had absorbed when it was used earlier into Sunset's other hand, the ravager swung its chainsaw around which was once again forced to the side by the shield. Grey light collected around the Kamen Riders hand as a the defend glyph flashed below her feet. “Shooting defence!” By now an orb of grey light was surrounded the fist that was sent forwards and slammed into the demon’s face ripping it from its body.
Dante slammed arbiter down sending a wave of demonic energy into the ground which catapulted the ravager into the air, he jumped after it getting level with the angel lift, before he slashed at it several times with osiris. Landing back on the ground he bombards it with bullets from his guns, but it still gets back up. The demon charged, but Dante was able to use the angel lift to get out of the way, the close the distance with the demon pull, stabbing it with rebellion, he then launched a barrage of stabs that made it look like his one had had turned into several. The ravager charges again, but Dante jumped out of the way then fires arbiter’s head at its back making it stumble. He then ran over, spinning osiris like a vertical propeller to sent the demon into the air, before spinning it the other way and letting the ravager fall back on it, finally destroying the tough demon.
With all the demons gone the ink barrier vanished. Dante was able to get across with his angel boost, while Sunset took the active ring off her finger and placed it back in the third slot of the left ring chain, took the active ring from the first slot and put it on her left middle finger, before pressing down on the left shift lever and scanning the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
The swift glyph appeared above her and transformed the Kamen Rider into her swift style, she took the wing ring from the first slot on the right ring chain, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: WINGS PLEASE!]
The wing glyph winked into being above her change changed her into her swift wing style.
They reached Kat and the gateway both the Kamen Rider and Nephilim vanished from Limbo and back into the real world.
Back at the order HQ
“Silver Sacks Tower.” Began Vergil, as he brought up an image of said building on the monitor. “The world’s most powerful investment bank and who runs it?” An image of a bald man appeared on the screen, clearly a photo of a newspaper clipping. “CEO Kyle Ryder. A human vessel: The physical manifestation of Mundus the demon king”. Another image appeared, this time of Mundus looking at the camera. “Through debt he controls everything. To Mundus, the world is a factory or farm for human souls. So he likes to keep his animals docile and monitored.” An image of a security camera and a factory appeared. Then it changed to one of a news tower. “The monitoring is done by the Raptor News Corporation, a global network of CCTV cameras, satellites and spies.” Vergil paused at the next part. “The way he keeps us docile is a...a little more insidious.”
“What is it?” Asked Dante as he raised a drink can to his mouth.
“I wouldn’t drink that if I were you.” Warned Symbol in a sing song voice.
“Why?”
“Because it's how he controls us.” At Dante’s looked that said he didn’t understand Vergil continued. “It’s in your hand. Planet earth’s most popular soft drink, Virility.” Dante took a sip of the drink before he heard what his brother said next. “The demons have spiked it.”
Que spit take that had Symbol fall on the ground laughing.
Even Vergil gave a chuckle. “It’s ok! It has no effect on us. Only on humans.”
Dante tossed the can over his shoulder and into a bin.
“It's lobotomy in a can.”
“So what's the plan?”
Vergil replied by bringing up another image. It was of a giant, a spiral and several smaller people bowing down. “That's the hell gate.” He explained.
“I’m guessing that you mean that spiral.” Questioned Symbol.
“Yes, it’s a conduit from which Mundus draws his power. While he’s connected to the Hell gate he’s immortal. If he wasn’t then Sparda and Eva could have easily killed him. But if we can get him away from the hell gate, then our swords and Sunset's driver will do the rest.”
“So how do we do that?” Asked Dante.
Vergil turned to his siblings. “We get his attention. Mundus is petty, he’s impulsive. If we hit him where it hurts, lets his anger rule him. Then I believe that we can draw him out.”
“So let me get this straight.” Began Sunset. “To kill Mundus we need to drag him away from the hell gate.”
“And we do that by pissing him off?” Interrupted Dante.
“Not quite how I’d put it, but roughly speaking yes.” Replied Vergil.
“And we do that by taking out both the Raptor News Network and Virility.” Asked Sunset.
“That's it.” Confirmed Vergil.
“Which one do you wanna do first?” Asked Dante.
Sunset Shimmer also known as Kamen Rider Symbol, Dante and Kat were walking down a street towards the factory that made Virility. “They’re aware of you now Dante and that Sunset is still alive, so stay low! Mundus doesn’t even know that I exist yet, so I’ll remain hidden until we’re ready to strike”.
“So that means we have to do all the work?!” Demanded Sunset.
“Pretty much, yes. Kat knows the Virility factory so she will be your guide.” Kat walked past a man who was about to take a drink when Dante knocked it out of his hand.
“It’ll kill ya.”
“Don’t draw attention!” Hissed both Kat and Sunset, before fist bumping.
“DDDDDDDDDAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNTTTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Came a demonic hiss as a camera saw the Nephilim and Kamen Rider, out of which came a demonic eye.
Dante and Sunset looked around in surprise as the surroundings started to shift, showing that they were being dragged back into Limbo. “Oh c’mon!” Shouted Dante.
“What did you think was gonna happen?!” Yelled Sunset. She pointed at the camera. “Pretty sure that was the cause.”
“Sunset's right.” Stated Kat. “That camera must have spotted you. They must have been looking for the both of you. You’ve got to take it out.”
“We know and here comes trouble.” Stated Dante as several demons burst from the ground.
“Shit! I’m not safe here!” Hissed Kat.
“Then go.” Replied Dante causing Kat to look at him.
“We’ve got this.” Added Sunset.
Kat ran off and the stygians charged, they were evolved versions of the lesser stygians. Dante sent one flying with an upwards swing from arbiter, then ducked under a sword strike, right before he impaled that one with rebellion, he then stabbed it so fast that it looked like he had multiple arms. Only to be shocked when the demon wasn’t killed. Then he noticed the difference, between the lesser stygians and the stygians. “Be careful! These have better armour-” He was forced to block an attack with rebellion only to grunt when he felt the power behind it. “- and stronger than the others!”
Symbol pulled open sunshine dawn sword styles's hand author by pulling its thumb and scanned the active ring.
[COME ON SLASH AND SHAKE HANDS: ACTIVE SLASH STRIKE!]
The active glyph flashed on the sword’s hand author and the blade was covered in bright red lightning. “I can see that! Lightning slash!” She yelled as she blocked a blow from a stygian with a lightning covered blade. Symbol then brought up her foot and kicked the demon back. She took the slash ring from her right ring chains first slot, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: SLASHER PLEASE!]
The slasher glyph appeared to her right and passed through her, changing the Kamen Rider into her active slash style. Symbol slashed at the stygian with her claws. She jabbed both of them into its gut, before pulling in opposite directions ripping the monster in half! Then she spun around and bisecting another at the waist that came up behind her.
Dante attacked on stygian with several quick slashes from rebellion, before turning around and slamming arbiter into the ground, which sent a wave of demonic energy through it catapulting a stygian into the air. He then jumped after it and tore it to bits with several airborne slashes from rebellion. While still in mid-air he spun around several times, the blade sending the stygian further into the air. Landing back on the ground Dante blasted the stygian with ebony and ivory, hopped over a blow from another demon and sent the next flying by slamming arbiter into the ground and sending a wave of demonic energy at it. He quickly slashed at the demon who's blow he had hopped over twice, before delivering a spinning slash, followed by slashing down in a two handed swing and giving one slash strike in a single handed back handed swing.
Sunset slashed a stygians arms off with her claws, before ripping its head off. Two jumped at her, one from either side. She responded by pressing down on the right shift lever three times and scanning the slasher ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: SLASHER A LEVEL SPELL!]
The active glyph flashed below her and her claws blurred after several seconds the stygians fell to the ground in pieces. Another tried to hit her but Sunset used her claws to block the attack, and forced the stygian back using the demon as a battering ram against its fellow demon. “Time for a bit more power.” She took the active ring from her finger, placed it on the left ring chains first slot, took the giga ring from the second slot, placed it on her left middle finger, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: GIGA PLEASE: BREAK THROUGH!]
Transforming into her giga style, Sunset was tackled by a stygian part way through the transformation, she brought both hands up and slammed them down on the monster’s back in a hammer blow! It was forced to let her go and the Kamen Rider got back to her feet and threw the demon at a pathos that tried to take a shot at her. She rammed the base of sunshine dawn axe style into the abdomen of a stygian, before grabbing the creatures head and throwing it at one that was trying to flank Dante.
“Thanks!” Shouted her brother. He sent a lesser stygian into the air by slamming arbiter on the ground, the wave of demonic energy acting as a catapult before hacking at it with rebellion, right before pulling another towards himself with demon pull and sending it into the air with an upwards slash from his sword which also splattered the head of the stygian that he had just been fighting. Another was grabbed by the demon pull and impaled on rebellion. The next stygian was sent into the air when Dante spun osiris like a vertical propeller, before it fell back down the same weapon when it was spun the other way. Several of the lesser stygians and a single stygian were killed by several spinning slashes
Sunset ripped three lesser Stygians in half with sunshine dawn axe style. She then pressed down on the left shift lever three times and scanned the giga ring.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: GIGA A RANK SPELL!]
The giga seal flash under her feet as green aura gathered in her axe like weapon. She brought it up and smashed right through a stygians weapon. “This is lame! Giga slam!” The axe was buried in the demon’s face killing it. A death knight leapt at Symbol, she blocked it with the shaft of sunshine dawn axe style and brought the weapon around in spear style hairline cracks formed on the shield after several strikes and it eventually shattered. The Kamen Rider opened its hand author by pulling the thumb before scanning the giga ring.
[COME ON AND SMASH SHAKE HANDS: GIGA SMASH STRIKE!]
The giga glyph flash on the hand author as the axe was covered in green aura. “Circle of the giga!” Symbol spun around the axe leaving a trail of semi solid aura behind it which, which cut the death knight in half. At that moment several bathos materialized. “You go lower and I go high?” Questioned Symbol.
Dante nodded as he parried an attack from a stygian with arbiter, breaking the demons arm in the process. “Sure!” He tried to continue his attack but was flanked by another stygian, the Nephilim only just managed to twist out of the way, getting a cut on his arm and hitting the stygian with several spinning slashes, before jumping back and firing arbiter's axe head at a lesser stygian that was approaching. Before he jumped and came down on the stygian with arbiter. Using the angel lift he closed the distance on the damaged lesser stygian slashing at it with osiris. “No you don’t!” Dante used the weapon to block an attack from a stygian and kicked it back before ripping the lesser Stygian to bits with the scythe like weapon.
Symbol took the giga ring off and put it back in the right ring chain’s second slot, took the swift ring from the third slot, placed it on her left middle finger, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
The swift glyph appeared above her and zipped down through her, transforming the Kamen Rider into her swift style. She then took the wing ring from the right ring chains first slot, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: WINGS PLEASE!]
The sound of wings being flapped came from the driver as the wing glyph winked into being above Sunset, it zipped down through her transforming the girl into her swift wing style. Sunset leapt into the air one of the bathos threw its bomb at her, she pressed down on the right shift lever once and scanned the wing ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: WING C LEVEL SPELL!]
The wing glyph flashed below her, Sunset's wings gained razor sharp edges she spun in mid-air, slashing the grenade making it explode. The Kamen Rider zipped out of the smoke unharmed and flew forwards, cutting the bathos that threw the grenade at her in half with her wings Sunset then saw several more grenades coming at her she pressed down on the right shift lever twice and scanned the wing ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: WING B LEVEL SPELL!]
The wing glyph winked in below her as her speed increased to the point that she became a blur, letting that Kamen Rider zip around the side of a building to avoid the explosions. The bathos followed her but Sunset was just to fast! She zoomed away before arcing up like a rocket. “This should be high enough!” Muttered the Kamen Rider as she yanked sunshine dawn blaster style from her belt and opened its hand author by pulling the thumb and scanning the wing ring.
[COME ON BLAST AND SHAKE HANDS: WING BLASTER STRIKE!]
Sunset's wings detached and started to spin like boomerangs they went shooting down the bathos primitive minds managed to realise the danger they were in and they tried to turn away only to be killed as the boomerang wings moved in complete erratic patterns tearing the demons into tiny bits.
Dante wasn’t having fun as a pair of ravagers were doing their best to kill him slowly and painfully! One of them charged, as Dante tried to slow it down with ebony and ivory. “They just keep running!” Shouted Dante angrily! Thankfully the monster stopped before it could reach Dante. “So it's got a limit to how far it can charge. Useful.” Muttered Dante, as he slammed several slashes from rebellion into its face, before sending it flying by slamming arbiter onto the ground the wave of demonic energy that the axe like weapon sent out threw the demon into the air. Leaping after it he destroyed the monster with several slashes from rebellion, then dodged the other one and sent it up by spinning osiris like a vertical propeller, the ravager then fell back onto the scythe when it was spun in the other direction. He then dodged the last ravager, before smashing its head in with arbiter. “We’re gonna get up there an rip you apart!” Shouted Dante at the camera.
Symbol went shooting down at the camera only to slam into some kind of energy barrier! “ARRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!” She screamed as red lightning hit her body!
“SUNSET!” Screamed Dante as she shot into the ground like a meteor! He ran over to his sister and saw that she had several scorch marks on her armour and bodysuit, her leg shoulder guard was cracked and her right wings had broken off completely! “Are you ok?!”
“I’m still alive if that's what you mean.” Symbol hissed in pain as she pulled herself back to her feet. “That thing’s got some kind of anti air net. But it only covers above and not below.” She pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the swift ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
The swift glyph appeared above her returning Symbol to her swift style, the wing ring now had several cracks on it. The Kamen Riders HUD showed that it would be at least an hour before swift wing style was available.
“I’ll go and get it, you stay here and recover.” Without waiting for an answer, Dante ran down a side street and used the demon pull to get a platform from the wall, then used the angel lift to get onto the new platform. The man then ran onto another ledge and used the demon pull to get a platform from a building across the road. It made the upper half of the building crack down the middle.
“I hope that guy has home insurance!” Shouted Symbol her shoulder guard had started to repair itself.
“Hahaha!” Replied Dante as he used the angel lift to get across the road and onto the platform. He then used the demon pull to rip the camera’s eye out and kicked it into a wall! “Hey snake eye!” He joked as he did so glancing down the Nephilim saw the ink barrier fading away. Dante jumped down what would have been a deadly drop for most humans as if it was five feet. He met up with his sister and the two of them ran through the arch that the ink had been blocking, suddenly the road reared up before dropping away revealing a HUGE gap. “Woah! Someone doesn’t want us here!”
“What was your first clue?” Asked Sunset dryly.
“The city itself is trying to stop you.” Explained Kat as she appeared next to them.
“Great!” Groaned Dante.
“Vergil sent me the camera locations for this area. Best avoid them if we can. Follow me.”
“When did he do that?” Asked Sunset.
“While the both of you were fighting for your lives.”
Sunset and Dante sweat dropped as they followed Kat down a flight of stairs ...Right into another demon ambush, this time the pathos had shields! Dante cut one stygian with rebellion, before he sent it flying by slamming arbiter onto the ground and sending out a wave of demonic energy. The man then damaged another stygian with several swings from rebellion, before killing it with an upwards swing from arbiter. He then used the angel lift to get level with the shielded pathos and tried to swat it with rebellion. Only to find that it’s shield was too strong! “Shit!” Dante went plummeting to the ground using arbiter’s weight, avoiding several bolts. After a lot of dodging he shouted: “Sunset! Do you mind?!”
“Sure!” Came the reply from Symbol. She took the swift ring from her left middle finger, placed it in the left ring chains third slot, took the active ring from the first slot and placed it on her left middle finger. Symbol then pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the active ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
The active glyph appeared to her left and moved through the Kamen Rider transforming her into her active style. She then took the boost ring from the right ring chains third slot and placed it on her right middle finger. Symbol pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the boost ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
The sounds of springs and bouncing came from the driver as the boost glyph appeared to her right and moved through her transforming Symbol into her active boost style. She jumped getting level with the shielded pathos with ease before she spun around and kicked its shield with such force that the airborne demon’s arm was ripped off. The Kamen Rider then pressed down on the right shift lever thrice and scanned the boost ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: BOOST A LEVEL SPELL!]
“Take this! Boost beam!” She spun around and kicked the boost glyph that appeared in front of her with her heel. Out of which came a purple blast of energy that vaporized the pathos.
Dante meanwhile attacked a stygian with his sword, before turning it into its axe as another tried to attack him from behind. The half devil brought the weapon down, smashing the stygians blade to bits, followed by its owner! The other stygian was then killed with several spinning slashes from rebellion.
Next a pair of shield pathos and a ravager appeared. “You take the ravager and I’ll take the ‘flying rats?’” Chirped Symbol.
Dante groaned. “Your never gonna let me live that down are you?”
“Nope!” Came the reply as Sunset took the boost ring off placed it back in the right ring chain’s third slot, took the defend ring from the four slot and placed it on her right middle finger. She then pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: DEFEND PLEASE!]
The defend glyph appeared to her right and passed through the Kamen Rider transforming Sunset into her active defend style. She quickly blocked an attack from the ravager as it charged at her. The demon still managed to push her back, before Sunset pressed down on the right shift lever once and scanned the defend ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: DEFEND C LEVEL SPELL!]
“Innershine!” The defend glyph appeared below her and a wall of energy stopped the ravager’s charge. Sunset wrenched her shield up, forcing the monster’s chainsaw to go upwards as well, before she stabbed it with sunshine dawn sword style. The Kamen Rider pulled his sword’s thumb opening its hand author and scanned the defend ring.
[COME ON AND SLASH SHAKE HANDS: DEFEND SLASH STRIKE!]
The sword was covered in grey energy as the defend glyph appeared around the blade. It was swung and an image of the defend guard appeared around it the ravager was just able to block but was still sent flying. Sunset made the mistake of turning away and was about to go and help her brother, when her instincts started screaming at her! She pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the defend ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: DEFEND C LEVEL SPELL!]
The defend glyph flashed beneath her feet as the Kamen Rider spun around and put her shield between her and the still alive ravager. A grey wall of energy flashing into being in front of the girl, blocking the chainsaw before it could reach her head! “That was a bit close!” Sunset switched sunshine dawn into its rifle style and pulled its thumb to open the hand author, before scanning the defend ring.
[COME ON AND SHOOT SHAKE HANDS: DEFEND SHOOTING STRIKE!]
The defend glyph appeared in front of the gun barrel and grey firing loops appeared around the front and bottom of the barrel. Grey aura started to gather in front of the glyph before the Kamen Rider pulled the trigger. “Shield crushing shot!” The ball of grey aura was shot forwards it split into four grey aura bullet that surrounded the ravager, becoming four large shields that rushed inwards crushing it between them. “And that's, that!”
While his sister had been fighting the ravager Dante was fighting the pathos. He hopped into the air and destroyed one with several slashes from rebellion. Then used the angel lift to get level with the other one and kill it via and overhead swing from arbiter pulling them both down and crushing the demon under it. The siblings took a left and ran up to Kat. “There you are!” She gasped.
“Here we are.” Replied the two in unison, they looked at each other before high fiving.
“This isn't good.” Muttered Kat and the city started shaking. Suddenly the walls started moving inwards! “It's the walls! Get out of there!” Symbol took the defend ring off her finger placing it back in the right ring chain’s fourth slot, before taking the boost ring from the third slot and placing it on her right middle finger. The Kamen Rider then pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the boost ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
Symbol pressed down on the right shift lever four times and scanned the boost ring again.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: VERY NICE: BOOST S LEVEL SPELL: THE BEST!]
The boost glyph flash below her feet as Symbol crouched down, she grabbed her brother by the back of his coat. “Wait what are you?!” Before Dante could finish the Kamen Rider leapt into the air, jumping so high that they cleared the buildings, before she jumped off an air platform. They shot down at an diagonal angle and slammed into the ground just outside of the buildings that were trying to crush them. “You ok?” Asked Sunset.
Dante pulled his head out of the ground. “Warn me next time!” He snapped.
“Sorry.” The two of them looked around seeing two cameras. Suddenly death knight pulled itself free of the ground. Except it was different, it had no shield and was completely blue. “Oh great what does this one do?!” Hissed Sunset.
Dante charged and the Kamen Rider watched as her brother did attack after attack, while being forced to roll out of the way of the ice waves that came from the demon’s blade whenever it hit the ground. All of his attacks got stopped by some sort of red energy barrier. Then she noticed that wasn't quite true, it took some damage from osiris, but rebellion, arbiter, ebony and ivory were just got stopped by the red energy barrier.
Suddenly, Sunset's active ring was taken off, placed back into the left ring chain’s first slot, the swift ring was taken from the third slot and placed on her left middle finger. “Not sure what you want but ok.” Sunset pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the swift ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
The swift glyph appeared above her and transformed the Kamen Rider into her swift style, then a new ring appeared on the left ring chains second slot. It was yellow with a blue gem that looked like a rifle in the centre of it. “New sub style? Nice!” Sunset took the ring from the slot and slid it onto her right middle finger, she pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the new ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: SNIPER PLEASE!]
A new glyph appeared above her. It was a blue sniper rifle, inside a black circle inside a black eight pointed star inside a second black circle. The caster glyph zipped down through her. First her overcoats chest turned blue and a black crosshair appeared in the centre of it. Her right shoulder guard turned dark blue that now curved downwards, the bottom half of the right sleeve of her bodysuit turned dark blue as did the forearm guard, her bracelet turned a solid black. In Symbol's hand a new weapon appeared it was blue sniper rifle, with the barrel, scope, ammo bolt and grip being black.
Symbol took aim with the sniper rifle and it fired a bolt of blue energy! It was a perfect head shot that killed the demon, which she was gonna call a frost knight. “Why does this weapon feel so familiar?!” Hissed the Kamen Rider.
“Sunset how’d you do that?!” Shouted Dante.
“That thing was only vulnerable to angelic weapons!” Shouted Symbol lesser stygians and a frost knight burst from the ground.
“Leave them to me!” Shouted Dante. He charged, turning rebellion into osiris. He slashed at them with continues attacks, the frost knight being very vulnerable to angelic weapons was killed first, followed closely by the lesser stygians.
Symbol took this time to aim at a shielded pathos, the first shot ripped through the dead of one of them killing it. Before Symbol pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the sniper ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: SNIPER C LEVEL SPELL!]
The next wave was a ravager and four lesser stygians. Dante ran at the lesser stygians while Symbol took aim at the ravager. The Kamen Rider pulled the trigger, only for the ravager to use its chainsaw as a shield, blocking the round. “Bit more power needed.” She pressed down on the right shift lever twice and scanned the sniper ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: SNIPER B LEVEL SPELL!]
Power gathered around the barrel of the gun as the sniper glyph winked in front of it before the trigger was pulled. Out of it came a blast of gigantic power! It tore through the ravager and the building behind it, along with three of the lesser stygians! Sunset started wide lensed. “Ok, I’d didn’t think that it would be so powerful.”
“Note to self don’t get her mad.” Muttered Dante as he speared the lesser stygian that had survived with rebellion “You take the one on the left and I’ll take the one on the right!” Dante ran down the street and used angel lift to get up to a grapple point. Then the angel boost to get across a gap and the demon pull to yank out the eye of a camera.
Sunset took off the swift ring and placed it back in the left ring chains third slot, she took the action ring from the first slot and placed it on her left middle finger. Sunset then pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
The active glyph appeared to her left and passed through her transforming Sunset into the active style. The girl then took the bind ring from the right ring chains second slot, slid it onto her right middle finger and pressed down on the right shift lever scanning the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BIND PLEASE!]
The sound of a chain clanking came from the driver as the bind glyph burst into being on her right, it moved over the Kamen rider transforming Sunset into her active bind style. She made use of this style to get at the other camera.
“Over here you two.” Came Kat’s voice. “We’re clear…. For the time being.”
“Never seen a witch use a spray can before.” Commented Dante.
“When was the last time you saw a witch?” Asked Sunset.
“Point.”
“Well, spells can take hours if not days to prepare.” Replied Kat. “So why not just can it for instant use later?”
“They do that with cheese.” Chuckled Dante. “Where’d you learn this stuff?”
“Vergil. He taught me the basics of demonism and oculus. Then figured that I had a natural talent for it. He said that it would help me to focus on something that was constructive and not…” Kat trailed off.
“And what?” Asked Dante only to get punched in the shoulder by Symbol.
“The nightmares.” Finished Kat, shutting Dante up and making him feel like an ass.
Dante ran forwards and slashed at a lesser stygian, before blasting another with a charged shot from ebony and ivory. He then leaped into the air pulling one of the stygians with him with osiris before ducking under an attack from a death knight.
Symbol removed the active ring from his left middle finger and placed it back in the left ring chains first slot, took the giga ring from the second slot, placed it back on her left middle finger and pressed down on the left shift lever to scan the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: GIGA PLEASE: BREAK THROUGH!]
The giga glyph appeared to below her and rose up transforming the girl into her giga style. She then manifested sunshine dawn spear style and pulled its thumb to open its hand author and scanned the giga ring.
[COME ON AND STAB SHAKE HANDS: GIGA STAB STRIKE!]
The giga seal appeared below her as green aura gathered in the spear, Symbol threw it and it exploded sending the death knight flying! “I’ll handle the death knight, you take out the stygians?” Asked the Kamen Rider as the her weapon put itself back together in her left hand.
“Erm actually.” Began Dante.
Sunset slumped when she heard the sound of chainsaws behind her. “Let me guess, several of the scary chainsaw demons just burst out of the ground behind me?”
Dante nodded.
“And you want me to take them out?”
“You are better at it than I am.”
“*Groan* Fine!” Sunset took the giga ring, placed it back in the left ring chains second slot, took the active ring from the first slot, placed it on her left middle finger, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned it.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
The active glyph appeared to her left and transformed her into her active style, before she took the defend ring from the right ring chains fourth slot, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: DEFEND PLEASE!]
The sound of a shield going bong came from the driver as the defend glyph appeared to her right and passed through her. Sunset having transformed into the style that was specialized for dealing with these chainsaw using demons dashed at one of the ravager’s which brought its chainsaw down, only for the weapon to be forced to the side by the defend guard. Leaving the monster open for a sword stab to the stomach. The Kamen Rider quickly scanned the defend ring after pulling the sunshine dawn sword style’s thumb to open its hand author.
[COME ON SLASH AND SHAKE HANDS: DEFEND SLASH STRIKE!]
The defend glyph flash on the hand author as grey aura gathered around it, she brought the weapon around an image of the defend guard appearing around it. Sunset's sword slammed into the ravager’s chainsaw ripping right through it and smashing into the demon with the force of a runaway freight train. She then turned around and slashed down at the other ravager, before slashing it across and ramming her shield into the face of a lesser stygian. Symbol then quickly pressed down on the right shift lever twice and scanned the defend ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: DEFEND B LEVEL SPELL!]
The defend glyph flash below her as she threw her shield at the demon, tearing all of them to pieces!
Dante yanked a lesser stygian into the air with osiris. Slashed another with rebellion and sent two more into the air with the demonic energy that arbiter produced when it was slammed into the ground. Before using the angel lift to get to them and break them in half with a heavy downwards slash from rebellion. A quick hop and rocketing down with arbiter pulped another. The next was shot with ebony and ivory’s charged shot, then Dante made the next lesser stygian go flying with arbiter and he leapt after it killing, the monster as it came back down with several airborne slashes from his sword. Landing back on the ground Dante went and killed the final lesser stygian with his sword.
The ink barrier that was keeping the siblings in the area vanished with the defeat of the last demon. Suddenly the walls started to close in again! Symbol took the active ring off and placed it back in the left ring chains first slot, took the swift ring from the third slot and placed it on her left middle finger. She then pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
“RUN!” Shouted both Kamen Rider and Nephilim as they dashed at top speed, they took a right turn, ran up a flight of stairs and then another right, but Symbol slipped and started sliding down a slop, knocked Dante down with her! Dante pulled out his guns and shoot a window enough that their combined body weight broke right through it. The two of them fell and short distance and landed on the ground inside what looked like a church.
“Ah great!” Muttered Dante sarcastically.
“We’re fighting demons in a church.” Deadpanned Sunset. “That's irony if I ever saw it.” She took the sniper ring from the right ring chains second slot, slipped it onto her right middle finger pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: SNIPER PLEASE!]
The sound of a sniper rifle being fired and reloaded came from the driver as Sunset took aim at the shielded bathos, the first shot ripped its shield from its arm and the second turned its head to mush. The Kamen Rider used her next shot on a stygian was tried to attack her brother from behind, only to have to roll out of the way of an attack from a pathos. “This is taking to long!” She hissed out as she pressed down on the right shift lever four times and scanned the sniper ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: VERY NICE: SNIPER S LEVEL SPELL: THE BEST!]
The sniper glyph appeared in front of the barrel and a ball of blue aura appeared in front of it. Out of the sniper rifle came several dozen yellow bullet shells. They moved a lot slower than the normal beam that came from the rifle but moved in much more erratic patterns. “This cast gives up a lot of power, but there are a lot more bullets and since I can only fire one shot every ten seconds normally, I’d say the payoff is worth it...Er oops.” Ruby saw that her attack had also hit Dante who was lying in a creator smoking!
“Damnit Sunset! What the hell!?!? Watch where you aim that thing!” Screamed Dante as he flipped back to his feet, waving his sword at his sister.
“Sorry!” Shouted Sunset in embarrassment. Suddenly she clutched her face, as some kind of memory came back to her.
Flashback
“I’m sorry!” Called a pink haired girl in a healer outfit.
End flashback
“Set... SUNSET!” Came a shouted, the Kamen Rider looked up to see her brother in front of her, looking very concerned.
“Sorry, what?”
“I’ve been calling you for the last five minutes!” Explained Dante. “You ok?!”
“Yeah, I just had some kind of memory.” Muttered Symbol.
“Good for you, what about?”
“Some pink haired girl in healer themed armour. Sorry about that, I’m still getting used to this rifle!”
“Its ok. If it gets you some answers then I’d happily get shot again.”
“Lets hope its doesn’t come to that.” Giggled Wizard.
“Kat are you there?” Shouted Dante when she didn’t answer he yelled. “Can you hear us?!” Suddenly a rather large and fat demon burst from the wall. “That's one ugly motherfucker!” Blurted out Dante.
“In light of not liking swearing, that thing with henceforth be known as a tyrant.”
“Who invited you fat ass?!” Shouted Dante.
The Tyrant seamed to take offence to that and charged! Dante dodged out of the way and started to pepper it with bullets from ebony and ivory. Symbol pressed down on the right shift lever twice and scanned the sniper ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: SNIPER B LEVEL SPELL!]
A blast for green lightning that looked more like a beam shot out of the sniper rifle and slammed into the demon! To Symbol's complete shock the Tyrant continued forwards not slowing for even a second.
*Crunch!*
It backhanded the Kamen Rider and sent her flying back into a wall.
“SUNSET!” Screamed Dante, she had to have been thrown through at least five or six pillars! “Bastard!” He exchanged rebellion for arbiter jumped into the air and slammed the demonic weapon onto the monster’s head to his shock it did nothing! Now the creatures attention was on him and that proved to be VERY bad for his health!
Sunset just got back to her feet as she saw the tyrant tackle Dante through a pillar and start to crush him against a wall! Suddenly the giga ring started to glow “So you’ve got an upgrade for me now?” Symbol smiled softly behind her helmet as removed the swift ring, placed it back into the left ring chains third slot, took the giga ring from the second slot, placed it onto her left middle finger, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: GIGA PLEASE: BREAK THROUGH!]
After the giga glyph changed Sunset into her strength style, another new ring appeared on the second slot of the right ring chain . It was coloured green showing that it was part of giga’s set and the gem looked like a purple square with a silver drill emerging from the bottom of it. “Let hope that you can give me the edge that I need.” Sunset took the new ring and placed it on her right middle finger, before pressing down on the right shift lever and scanning it.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE:DRILL PLEASE!]
The sound of a drill being revved came from the driver as a purple seal appeared below her. It was a purple drill in the centre, inside a silver circle inside a purple eight pointed star inside a second silver circle, it rose up through her. Sunset's left shoulder guard bulked up, turned grey, got a purple square on the top of it and out of which came a small silver drill. Her leg forearm was now encased in a dark grey 3d rectangle, with purple outlines and her hand was covered by a silver drill, also going halfway up the side was a purple line, at the end of which was a silver circle. Her overcoat chest gained purple upside down hexagon, with a black drill image in the centre of it. Coming out of the bottom of it was a silver drill and emerging from the top two lines was a pair of curved purple lines that went up to her shoulder guards.
“Nice!” Smirked Symbol as the core drill revved. Running forwards, she rammed the drill into the tyrants side, it gave a roar of pain as it let go off Dante, dropping him to the ground coughing as his healing factor kicked in. “You going to be ok?!” Shouted the Kamen Rider as she blocked a blow from the demon with her drill.
“Give me a minute to heal up!” Shouted Dante in reply.
“Leave this thing to me!” Shouted Symbol as the tyrant charged at her. Reaching up to the silver knob on the core she twisted it once.
[Earth drilling!]
Symbol rammed in into the ground, kicking up a huge cloud of dust, which the tyrant charged into and out the other side. There was no sign of the Kamen Rider, until the ground rubble and she burst out, hitting the tyrant with an uppercut that lifted its feet off the ground! Symbol landed back on the ground as the tyrant charged once again. “Talk about a one trick pony.” Muttered the Kamen Rider as she twisted the knob twice.
[Iron drilling!]
She slammed the drill into the ground again, this time a wall of iron burst out of the ground, right between the Kamen Rider and the demon! It tried to stop but couldn’t! Symbol slammed an open hand again the wall and to charged at the tyrant forcing it back against the church wall! “Time to end this! Muttered the Kamen Rider as she twisted the knob thrice!
[Steel drilling!]
The Kamen Rider brought the drill back and fired a huge beam of purple energy from it! It ripped right through the tyrant succeeding in killing the monster!
“Nice!” Congratulated Dante. “The fatter they are the harder they fall.”
“Flock off feather face!” Smirked Symbol.
Kat appeared. “Dante! Sunset! It’s chaos out here! But I found a way out!”
“Where?” Demanded Dante.
Kat pointed at the window, where a gateway was. “Up there! I marked it!”
Sunset took the giga ring off and placed it back in the left ring chains second slot, before taking the swift ring from the third slot and placing it on her left middle finger. She pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
Once the swift glyph had appeared above her and zipped through the Kamen Rider she took the wing ring from the right ring chains first slot, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: WINGS PLEASE!]
The sound of wings being flapped came from the driver as the wing glyph appeared above the Kamen Rider transforming her into her swift wing style. The two of them started running with the church coming apart around them!
“Dante! Sunset! Run!” Shouted Kat.
“What does it look like we’re doing?!” Shouted Sunset.
“We are running!” Added Dante.
“Well I’m flying!” Corrected the Kamen Rider.
It took Dante several uses to the angel lift to get to the portal, just as Ruby slammed into it! They exploded out of the other side back in the real world.
“It just seemed to drag on forever...Church.” Dante shrugged to Kat.
“Thanks Kat!” Cheered Sunset as she skipped along.
The girl watched them go and quickly followed when the spire of the church gave out.
News report
“The police have released footage for the terrorists responsible for the recent attack at Saint Agares’s Church.” Spoke the news man. “He goes by the name of Dante.” An image of Dante flipping off the camera appeared. “Remember his face people. If you see him, inform the police immediately but do not approach. He has a history of violence and is a known sexual deviant. This is Bob Barbas, just doing God’s work.”
“I was here years ago as a child, I explored the whole facility unseen.” Explained Kat as they walked into the Virility factor that made earth’s most popular soft drink and the way that the demons controlled the humans. “I sensed a demon under the factory. A Succubus, an ancient one.” The trio walked towards an escalator. “We believe it's the source of the psychotropic ingredient. That's what they use the control us.”
“Let's kill it.” Whispered Sunset Shimmer also known as Kamen Rider Symbol.
“Welcome visitors to the Virility factory.” Came the intercom, to humans it was the most pleasant sound on earth. Dante Sunset wanted to rip their ears off after five seconds of hearing it. “Virility’s secret ingredient is what makes Virility the number one soft drink in the world. And best of all it has been scientifically proven to improve weight loss by 21% and enhance sexual performance by 63% if drunk daily.”
“Bawahahaha!” Laughed the Kamen Rider, at that last part.
“How do people actually fall for this crap?” Dante asked Kat.
“If your told something is true often enough, you tend to believe it. They told me I was crazy for seeing demons.”
Dante gave a dry chuckle. “They tried telling me I was a basket case too.”
“They want to put me on drugs. Said it would make me better. They lied. They just wanted to keep me weak and docile.”
“How did you figure it all out?” Asked Dante.
“Vergil pulled me out of the nightmares. You?”
Dante looked at her for a second before replying. “When the people you are supposed to trust the most turn out to be demon scum. Your eyes really do open up to the truth everywhere. I took a stand… fought back and killed. No matter the consequence. So I chose my path and I lived by it. And after all that anger, violence and death, you have to dig deep. Deep into your own heart, to see if you are still sane, if you can call yourself human.”
They went into the next room on the tour which contained a large tank with white bubbly water. “This ladies and gentlemen, is where the magic ingredients mix together to give you the unique taste of Virility.” Came the ear grinding announcement voice again.
“The succubus is hidden deep inside the factory. But there is no physical way to reach it from our world. Only from limbo, there's a rift inside.” Explained Kat.
“Rest assured that it has been deemed both safe and beneficial by our trustworthy and ethical. Virility truly is a national treasure!” Kat opened a service door as Symbol snorted when the announcer said that.
They ran down a hall, alongside the pipes that fed that tank. “This way I think.” Kat took a right turn.
“‘This way I think’ Really?” Question Symbol.
“You said you’d been here before!” Added Dante.
“Yes, but it was during an out of body experience, years ago.” Replied Kat.
“That’s comforting.” Sarcasm Symbol.
“Flying around in spirit form?” Asked Dante, to which Kat nodded.
“Yeah in Limbo. Vergil says to would be an effective intelligence gathering tool, but I can't do it at will.”
“So.. How did you do it before?”
“It was triggered by extreme physiological trauma… the Nightmares.”
“What are… the nightmares.”
“Dante, you need to learn when to shut up! I’m not a sociable person and even I could tell not to ask that!” Shouted Symbol.
“It's in the past now!” Interrupted Kat. They went down another flight of stairs and into a room. “This is where they store the merchandise ready for export, but it’s funny.” Kat looked around confused.
“What is it?” Asked Dante.
“I expected it to be bigger, a lot bigger.”
“Don’t things look different in Limbo?” Asked Sunset. “Not to mention that you were just a child when you were last here.”
“Speaking of which, what were you doing here?”
“Escaping my nightmares.”
Dante stared at Kat. “You came to Limbo to escape your nightmares?!”
“Shows how bad they were.” Sunset muttered as she punched her brother in the arm.
“Once your in Limbo all you have to do is retrace our steps back to the mixing room.” Explained Kat.
“Sounds easy.”
“Yeah, except this is one of the demon lord’s main bases as a result there’s probably gonna be thrice as much demons as we had to deal with before, not to mention they’ll all be high level!” Exclaimed Sunset.
“Ok it's here!” Stated Kat as she set up the portal before an argument could breakout. The room started to rearrange itself around the siblings as crates shot out from the walls, floating in mid-air as the floor shot down and the walls climbed up!
“Kat was right! It really is much bigger!” Shouted the Kamen Rider.
“Dante? Sunset?” Called Kat.
“Down here!” Yelled Dante.
“Oh! Good.”
“Sunset was right. It really is much bigger in Limbo. What next?”
“Climb!” Deadpanned Symbol. “What else?”
“Sunset's right! Head back to the mixing room! I’ll meet the two of you there!” Ordered Kat.
Dante looked at some of the signs. “Obesity, stupidity?”
“Dink Virility!” Chirped Symbol. “Sums up what we think about that drink nicely.” It took two leaps to get to a Y shaped piece of debris that was floating in mid-air. “Right or left?” Asked Symbol.
“Left.” Replied Dante.
“We go right.” Stated Symbol.
“Ok, wait a minute!” Shouted Dante as he ran after his sister. They reached the end of the debris and needed to get to the next platform. “Look! Up there!” The female pointed to a crate that was free floating. Dante nodded and used the demon pull to yank the create close enough for them to use as a launch pad. After which they ran up onto a piece of floor that was floating. Not wanting her brother to have to do all the work Sunset took the bind ring from the right ring chains second slot, slid it onto her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BIND PLEASE!]
The sound of a chain clanking came from the driver as the bind glyph winked into being to her right and passed through the Kamen Rider transforming her into her active bind style. Sunset used her chain to pull another crate towards them which was used by the Kamen Rider and Nephilim to get up to the next part of the floor that was floating.
“It's like one big puzzle!” Muttered Dante when he saw that their path upwards had ended.
“We can go this way.” Replied Sunset as they jumped across two pieces of floor and Dante had to used the demon pull to get another part of what had once been the floor over to them, it was used as a stepping stone and Sunset went next she yanked what looked like a wooden crate over to them, which they climbed up. “Are we even going the right way?!” Shouted Sunset when Dante used the demon pull on another create.
“I think so.” Came the reply as the climbed up onto a much larger bit of floor. “What took you guys so long?” Asked Dante as several lesser stygians burst out of the ground.
Sunset punched one in the face, before she took out sunshine dawn sword style and turned it into its rifle style, opening its hand author she scanned the bind ring.
[COME ON SHOOT AND SHAKE HANDS: BIND SHOOTING STRIKE!]
The bind glyph flashed under her feet as several chains of orange aura shot out of the rifle, they circled around the demons before anchoring themselves to rocks, they then retracted yanking different parts of the demons in different directions ripping them to bits!
Dante slashed a lesser stygian with osiris, then shredder a stygian by spinning the scythe like weapon as a vertical propeller. He continually slashed at the two with the angel weapon, right before he sent them into the air by slamming arbiter onto the ground which sent out a wave of demonic energy catapulting the demon into the air. He chased after the stygian attacking it with osiris.
The pair of them then jumped up on two creates and Dante saw a lock on point for the angel lift, he pointed it out to his sister who removed the bind ring and replaced it in the right ring chain’s second slot. Taking the boost ring from the third slot she slid it onto her finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned it.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
Symbol jumped after her brother each of which took her to the grapple points which she jumped off and over to the next one. This path took them in a wide arc that lead to several shelves that were floating in mid-air.
Dante then jumped to a lock on point for the angel lift, yanked open a crates door’s with the demon pull and used the angel boost in order to get into said crate. Symbol pressed down on the right shift lever twice and scanned the boost ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: BOOST B LEVEL SPELL!]
She jumped of a boost glyph and appeared in mid air and above the crate, onto the piece of floating floor on the other side. Out of the ground came what looked like a death knight, but it was glowing red and was so hot that it was nearly on fire! “Meet the hell knight!” Announced the Kamen Rider.
“Hey, could you point us to the mixing room?” Dante ask the demon getting a weird look from Symbol.
The demon stabbed its sword into the ground and it started to crack. The female's lenses went wide. “Dante move!” She ran to her brother just as he was about to attack the hell knight with osiris, the Kamen Rider grabbed the Nephilim and practically threw him over to the other side of the floor.
“Sunset what the-?!” Dante was cut off when the ground around the hell knight was covered in what could only be called a sea of fire! “SUNSET!” He screamed as his sister was sent flying out of the fire and slammed into the side of the crate! After a few seconds she fell to the floor having been knocked out. “You, BASTARD!” Dante charged at the hell knight, he didn’t see that white had started to creep into his black hair, his eyes had turned red at the rims and red veins started to pulse through his face. He drew rebellion but the sword slammed into a red energy barrier and Dante got a shield bash to the face. He was sent flying back but recovered, he was about to charge but stopped, took a deep breath and thought. “Ok think about this Dante, a death knight needs demonic weapons to break its shield and angel weapons to attack it in the air. A frost knight cannot be hurt by anything other than angel weapons, so that means arbiter should be able to hurt a hell knight.” Switching rebellion for arbiter Dante slammed the axe like weapon down on the ground just in front of the hell knight, a wave of demonic power sent the demon into the air. “Got you now!” Shouted Dante as he finished the attack. He jumped after it overtaking the hell knight and using arbiter’s weight to pull himself and the monster back down crushing its head beneath the weapon’s blade. The then repeat this twice, finally killing the thing that had nearly taken his sister!
Suddenly another hell knight and two stygians popped from the ground. Dante snarled and attacked the hell knight, he slammed arbiter into its ribs several times the first hit forcing its shield back and the other two breaking its ribs. He was hit in the back by the two stygians, which he ignored and pressed his attack on the hell knight. He slammed arbiter down, which was blocked by the demon’s shield, he took several hits again from the stygians.
Sunset had regained consciousness by this time and looked annoyed. She pulled out sunshine dawn rifle style opened its hand author by pulling the thumb and scanned the active ring.
[COME ON AND SHOOT SHAKE HANDS: ACTIVE SHOOTING STRIKE!]
A blast of red lightning shot out of the active seal that appeared in front of the gun’s barrel and took the arm off one stygian before ripping its head off. “Dante I’m fine now calm down!” Shouted Sunset as she blocked an attack from the second stygian and rammed her sword through its head. The Kamen Rider twisted around and cut the other stygian who’s arm she had taken off in two.
Dante took a deep breath and brought arbiter down on the hell knight destroying it’s shield, before he jumped into the air as it set the floor on fire and smashed its head in with a downwards swing from the axe. “Thanks!” He called over to his sister. The next wave of demons was comprised of two lesser stygians and a tyrant. “Shit!” Hissed out Dante.
“Leave tall fat and ugly to me!” Order Sunset as she replaced the active ring with the giga ring, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned it.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: GIGA PLEASE: BREAK THROUGH!]
The giga seal appeared below her and rose up through the girl transforming her into her giga style. Symbol then took the drill ring from the right ring chain’s third slot, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: DRILL PLEASE!]
The purple and silver seal appeared under her feet and rose up through the Kamen Rider, augmenting her giga style with her drill style. She met the tyrant’s charge head o, stopping the creature but got pushed back in the process. Dante sent one stygian into the air with an upwards slash from rebellion, he used the angel lift to go after it and attacked with osiris. It was then smashed back into the ground with a downwards swing from arbiter and a heavy downwards swing from rebellion smashed its head in. Dante quickly used his sword to block an attack from the other stygian and skewered it with a stab then twisted around into several spinning slash before finishing up his combo with several fast stabs from the sword.
Symbol recovered before the tyrant, she twisted the knob on the core drill once.
[Earth drilling!]
The Kamen Rider tunnelled into the ground and came back up with an uppercut to the tyrant's chin sending it into the air. It crashed back on the ground and started to get up, only for Dante to smash arbiter into its back! “Good move!” Congratulated Symbol, several arrows smashed into her armour, she glanced up at the pathos that had just appeared. “Which one do you want?” She asked her brother.
“I’ll take the tyrant.” Came the reply as the large demon staggered back to its feet. “I could use some practice.
The Kamen Rider nodded as she replaced the giga ring with its yellow counterpart pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned it.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
The swift seal appeared above her and shout down through Symbol turning her into her swift style. She then took the wing from the right ring chain, slide it onto her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: WINGS PLEASE!]
The sound of wings being flapped came from the driver as the wing seal winked in above her, zipping down transforming Sunset into her swift wing style, she shot into the air leaving her brother to fight the tyrant.
Dante rolled out of the way of the demon’s charge and slammed arbiter into its back, knocking it over. The man had figure out that was a weakness when he watched his sister fight the first one. He then used the demon pulled to yank himself out of the way of a body slam and slammed arbiter into the ground the wave of demonic energy it produced sent the large demon into the air, before he leaped after it killing the monster with several slashes from rebellion.
Sunset dived to avoid several crossbow bolts and pulled the right shift lever once before scanning the wing ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: WING C LEVEL SPELL!]
The swift glyph flashed just behind her wings as both of them gained lasers edges which were used to cut one pathos to bits, before Sunset shot the other one with several blasts from crescent rose swift style.
Dante dodged another charge for the still alive tyrant and slammed arbiter into the monster's back, before jumping into the air and slamming the axe like weapon down in an overhead swing this time it was dead for sure. “HOW DO WE GET OUT OF HERE?!” Shouted Dante as he couldn’t see a way out of the ring of containers.
Sunset who was still in the air looked around and pointed. “Over there.” Dante jumped onto several cargo containers and slipped through a gap that had been hard to spot from where he had been standing. They took a right, then a left turn after a short walk, before taking two more rights and into some kind of trap! It looked like several black shards around an orange ball that glowed white at the centre. Dante pulled out his guns while Symbol pulled sunshine dawn blaster style’s handle so that it was horizontal. Out of the gun’s barrel came a yellow aura dagger and a curve of yellow aura that looped around the pointed to the bottom of the barrel tip just before the dagger, protecting her hand. She pulled open sunshine dawn dagger style’s hand author and scanned the wing ring.
[COME ON AND STAB SHAKE HANDS: WING STABBING STRIKE!]
Dante opened fire on the trap. “Flying jabs!” while the wing glyph flashed on the hand author as Symbol stabbed it with the sunshine dawn dagger style multiple times, the blade was covered in an aura that looked like her wings, it was quickly destroyed. The siblings took another left and climbed up some stairs that were made of crates, before hopping onto the top of some more shelves.
Dante grabbed a pathos with the demon pull and slammed arbiter into it in an upwards heavy swing. While Symbol took to the air, shot one with sunshine dawn blaster style and pulled its thumb once, opening its hand author and scanning the wing ring.
[COME ON AND BLAST SHAKE HANDS: WING BLASTER STRIKE!]
Her wings detached and spun at the demons like boomerangs as the wing glyph flashed on the hand author, all of the pathos were promptly sliced to pieces.
Dante then used the demon pull to yank the box that they were standing on towards another row of shelves. Before jumping off and using the angel boost to get to another shelf that was floating, only to overshoot! “Oh come on!” He screamed. Symbol managed to catch her brother and throw him to the next shelf, which was more like a row of shelves. “I over shot? Really?!” Dante glared at his giggling sister as she landed, her wings needing to rest. So she pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the swift ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
The swift seal appeared above her and zipped down through the Kamen Rider stripping her over her wing style. They ran along the row, jumped to another shelf then onto a floating crate. “The boost would work better here.” She took the swift ring off, placed it back in the third slot of the left ring chain, took the active ring from the first slot, slide it onto her left middle finger, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
The active glyph appeared to her left and passed through her transforming Sunset into her active style. She then took the boost ring from the right ring chains third slot, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
The boost glyph winked in to her right and passed over her transforming the girl into her active boost style. Dante used the angel lift to get up the next shelves while Sunset jumped up after him. He then used the demon pull to get a box from some more shelves, which was used as a booster pad to get up to the next lot of shelves. The two of them were about to start following the pipes, when a hell knight burst from the ground!
Dante attached the demon pull to its shield before pulling it off balance he then slammed arbiter into the hell knight. Continuing he then brought arbiter around in three heavy swings. Suddenly, a frost knight emerged from the ground and was about to attack Dante while his back was turned. Sunset saw this and quickly replaced the active ring with the swift ring, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned it.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
The swift glyph appeared and zipped down through her, transforming the girl into her swift style. She then took the sniper ring from the right ring chains second slot and placed it on her right middle finger. Sunset pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: SNIPER PLEASE!]
The sniper glyph appeared above her and zipped down through the Kamen Rider transforming her into her swift sniper style. The sound of a sniper rifle being fired and reloaded was heard as a high powered bullet slammed into the frost knight’s blade knocking its blow to the side.
“I’ll take down the frost knight, you take out the hell knight!” Shouted Dante at his sister.
“Ok!” Replied Symbol as she took off the swift ring, replaced it with the giga ring and scanned it after pressing down on the left shift lever. “This should be able to affect it.”
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: GIGA PLEASE: BREAK THROUGH!]
Suddenly a new ring appeared on her right middle finger it was green with a red gem in the centre of it that was shaped like a fist. “I’m starting to see a pattern here.” Muttered the Kamen Rider she pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the new ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: PUNCH PLEASE!]
The sound of a boxing bell came from the driver as a new seal appeared below the Kamen Rider. It was a red fist, inside a red circle inside a red eight pointed star inside a second red circle. It rose up through her. When it was finished the Kamen Riders overcoats chest was now dark red, in the centre of it was a black fist emblem, that was inside the centre of a silver octagon, coming out of each side of which was a silver line the lead to the edge of the coat. Her shoulder armour had turned dark red and gained an upwards curve, while her forearm armour turned dark red, her bracelets silver and the armour on the back of her hand also turned silver with the knuckle armour turning red. This is Sunset Shimmer also known as Kamen Rider Symbol's giga punch style.
“Nice!” Symbol pounded her knuckles together creating mini shockwaves. She ran at the hell knight that drew its weapon back and attacked! She blocked it with her forearm armour that was much thicker than before, she didn’t even feel any pain as the weapon scrapped off the armour harmlessly. Symbol brought her fist back and slammed it into the hell knights face! The Kamen Rider pulled on the right Shift Lever once and scanned the punch ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: PUNCH B LEVEL SPELL!]
“Blazing straight!” Sunset gathered power in her right fist as the punch glyph appeared in front of it before throwing it forwards, it ripping right through the hell knight’s shield and slammed into its face with explosive force! The power was sent flying back with enough forced to make several massive crates fall on it.
Dante slashed at the frost knight with continues attacks from osiris before he leapt into the air dragged the demon with her via the scythe like weapon. He swung the weapon around several times, then turned it back into rebellion and slammed a downwards heavy swing down on the monster’s head. Landing back on the ground as the demon climbed back to its feet, Dante uses osiris again, this time spinning it around like a horizontal helicopter blade using his momentum as a jump pad only added to the helicopter image as the Frost Knight was torn to bits.
“That took way too long, let's get moving!” Ordered Sunset. They ran through a door and took a left turn, then a right turned into a large room. Out of the floor came six lesser stygians. “I think that I’m a bit insulted.” Muttered the Kamen Rider. She slammed her fist into the face of one lesser stygian, sending it flying into a crate. Before she smashed her fists together around another lesser Stygians sword catching it between them and twisted making the weapon shatter. The lesser stygian had time to look at its weapon it shock before it was upper cutted into the air. The third charged at Ruby, who scanned the punch ring after pressing down on the right shift lever twice.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: PUNCH B LEVEL SPELL!]
Sunset gathered power in her fists and slammed one into the face of the lesser stygian that she was fighting, ripping its head from its body then the Kamen Rider spun around and punched the lesser stygian that she had sent into the air earlier in the chest, shooting it into the one that she had sent flying into a crate when the fight first started both of them exploded.
Dante sent one into the air with by slamming arbiter into the ground then killed another with several sword slashes. He fired several shots from ebony and ivory at another. The fourth was killed via several swings from osiris followed by a powerful downwards swing. The Nephilim the jumped back and fired arbiter’s head killing the second to last lesser stygian, then smashed the final one's head in with a heavy downwards swing from rebellion.
With the lesser stygians beat their superiors joined in the fight. Out of the ground burst four stygian. “Two each?” Asked Dante, to which Symbol nodded. One stygian charged at the female sibling, who forced its weapon to the side and grabbed it around the neck before punching it several times in the face! She then threw it at its friend when it tried to attack her from behind and pressed down on the right shift lever three times before scanning the punch ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: PUNCH A LEVEL SPELL!]
“Propellant swing” Jets expanded out of her right fist as she ran towards, the stygians that were in the perfect position. Her fist slammed into one of them, sending it crashing into the second one both of which slammed into the wall with enough force to atomize them both and kill them.
Dante sent one into the air with an upwards slash then slashed at the other with several swings from rebellion followed closely by a couple of spinning slashes. The other was sent right back into the air with a few airborne spinning slash that ended in an upwards swing from the sword, before the Nephilim used the angel lift to get level with it and smashed it back down to the ground with heavy downwards swing from arbiter. Its weight pulling them both down and pulping the demon’s head between the floor and the blade.
With that wave beaten a ravager pulled itself from the ground. “Two on one? I like those odds.” Muttered Dante.
“So do it.” Added Symbol as she slipped on the active ring, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
The active glyph winked in to her right transforming her into her active style. She then took the defend ring from the right ring chains fourth slot, slide it onto her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: DEFEND PLEASE!]
The defend glyph appeared to her right and the sound of a shield going bong came from the driver. Sunset blocked a charged from the ravager with her shield and Dante jumped using her as a springboard and smashed into the chainsaw demon with a downward swing from arbiter. Sunset then slashed at the monster with her sword, when it turned to attack Dante and it was killed via several from Dante when it turned to attack Sunset! “We’re using that again if we ever fight any demons two on one.” Stated Dante.
At that moment both a frost and hell knight burst from the ground. “This time you get the hell knight!” Ordered Sunset as she placed on the swift ring, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned it.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
The swift seal burst into being above her and transformed the Kamen Rider into her swift style. She then slipped on the sniper ring and pressed down on the right shift lever before scanning it.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: SNIPER PLEASE!]
The sound of a sniper rifle being fired and reloaded came from the driver as the sniper seal appeared above her and turned the Kamen Rider into her swift sniper style. Sunset fired her rifle at the frost knight getting its attention while Dante attacked the hell knight by firing arbiter’s head at it. He closed the distance with the demon pull, before slamming several slow and heavy swing from arbiter into it. Sunset pressed down on the right shift lever twice and scanned the sniper ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: SNIPER B LEVEL SPELL!]
The sniper seal winked in front of the gun barrel and she fired a beam of green lightning that slammed into the frost knight sending it flying. It recovered and sent a wave of ice at the Kamen Rider, who rolled to the side, only to pale when she saw where it was going. “DANTE MOVE!”
Obeying his sister's order the Nephilim used the angel lift to get up to a bar above them, the frost wave hit the hell knight freezing it move! “Well, that's useful.” Letting go of the bar Dante slammed arbiter into the Hell Knight’s head breaking it free of the ice. The demon smashed its sword into the ground setting it on fire, only for Dante to feet nothing! “Huh?” The hybrid looked at his axe and saw it was imitating a red glow over his body. “So when I’ve got the axe out I’m protected from fire attacks? Would have been nice to known sooner!”
Symbol pulled open crescent rose blaster styles's hand author and scanned the sniper ring.
[COME ON AND BLAST SHAKE HAND: SNIPER BLASTING STRIKE]
The sniper glyph appeared in front of the sniper rifle gun barrel and Symbol fired a beam of energy that was coloured blue from her sniper rifle, it forced the frost knight back and seemed to drain energy from it as it did so. She didn’t need to do anything else as the demonic was in the area that was sent on fired and killed! Dante got his axe around the hell knight’s head and tore it from its body.
“Look out!” Suddenly, three traps came online, like the one before they looked like hundreds of black shards with yellow glowing cores. Symbol pressed down on the right shift lever three times and scanned the sniper ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: SNIPER A LEVEL SPELL!]
The sniper glyph flashed in under her feet and Dante drew his guns. “Sniper sun!” A barrage of yellow bullets came from the sniper rifle, which was joined by Dante’s silver bullets taking care of the problem.
They went through the door that had been blocked while they were fighting demons and took a left. “Where the hell is that mixing room?!” Dante and Symbol were both about to lose it after fifteen dead ends! Going back to the door, the took the first right which was the only way they hadn’t gone yet.
They had to jump over two puddles of some kind of acid that was leaking from the pipes.
“...This goes in the drinks right?” Asked Sunset.
“Yeah.” Replied Dante not seeing the point.
“What are human stomachs made of??!?!”
“Sunset what the hell are you talking about?!”
“Dante, I step in one of these earlier and it nearly melted my boot! How the hell is most of the population still alive if they drink something that can melt a boot that survives demon attacks?!?!”
“Oh! I see you point, but I have no idea!”
With Sunset steaming even more now they went through a door and took a left turn, suddenly the hall extended and a ravager burst from the ground! “Yey! Something to take out our frustration on!” Sunset took off the swift ring and replaced it with the active one, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned said ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
The active glyph appeared to her left and moved through the Kamen Rider transforming her into the corresponding style. She then took the defend ring, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: DEFEND PLEASE!]
Sunset then pressed down on the right shift lever once more and scanned the defend ring once again.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: DEFEND C LEVEL SPELL!]
“Innershine!” Sunset blocked the attack from the chainsaw demon with an energy wall and Dante ducked around her and spun osiris like a vertical propeller to send it into the air then let the demon fall back on the scythe when it was spun the other way. Symbol then opened crescent rose sword styles's hand author and scanned the defend ring.
[COME ON AND SLASH SHAKE HANDS: DEFEND SLASH STRIKE!]
The active glyph appeared around the blade and Wizard swung the sword, a projection of the defend guard appearing behind it as she cut off the ravager’s head. The siblings took a right turn through a door and ran up a flight of stairs before they took a left turn and went up a slightly bigger flight of stairs. “We’ve been this way! It was how we got down to the store room with Kat!” Exclaimed Symbol.
“Ah!” Dante exclaimed as they ran into what looked like the entrance to the building… and instantly the both wished they hadn't. In the centre of which was what looked like some sort of pulsing yellow massive of vein like piping. Dante vision flashed back to the entrance, in the centre of which was a large pillar, the mass being its true form.
Symbol looked to where the veins lead, some sort of tank that looked like a fat humanoid with a tap in its belly and the pip entrance being its mouth. “Ew!” She muttered when she realised that was the tank that the visitors got their drinks from!
“What is the shitting hell is going on here?!” Demanded Dante, while his sister tried not to throw up.
“The mixing process.” Dante would forever deny that Kat’s voice made him jump. “But it's the source we’re interested in.”
“I’m guess our succubus is on the other end of that.” Stated Dante as he looked down the hole in the floor where the veins came from.
“That's right. This way.” Kat walked passed Dante and the recovering Symbol. Suddenly, one door slid shut and an ink barrier appeared over the other.
“Trouble. Give us a minute.” Ordered Dante, while Symbol pulled out the sunshine dawn sword style.
“I think that this is gonna take more than a minute.”
Two stygians and a ravager burst from the ground. The chainsaw using demon charged and Sunset fought the need to laugh when it knocked a stygian over the edge of the railing! She pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the defend ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: DEFEND C LEVEL SPELL!]
“Ok, now that was funny!” Stated the Kamen Rider as the ravager slammed into the energy wall and got a shield bash to the face for its trouble.
Dante forced the stygians blade away from his face and stabbed it with rebellion before it was filled with holes via several stabs that were executed so fast that it looked like her had several arms.
Sunset twisted away from the ravager’s weapon, then rammed the side of it with her shield, leaving the demon open to several brutal sword stabs. Dante slammed arbiter down on it from behind, when it turned to fight him. Sunset pressed down on the right shift lever three times and scanned the defend ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: DEFEND A LEVEL SPELL!]
Grey energy gather in her fist as the defend glyph appeared under her feet. The Kamen Rider threw her fist forwards, sending the ravager flying over the edge and into the pit far below.
The next wave was made of three stygians and a single hell knight. “I’ve got the hell knight, you take down the stygians!” Ordered Sunset. She took off the active ring replacing it with the giga ring, then she pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: GIGA PLEASE: BREAK THROUGH!]
The giga glyph appeared below the Kamen Rider and rose up through her. She then took the punch ring from the right ring chains second slot, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: PUNCH PLEASE!]
The sound of a boxing bell came from the driver as the punch glyph winked in below Symbol, rising up through her. She ran forwards and socked the hell knight in its mug. The monster flew back and swiftly recovered, Wizard thrust her fist forwards and the demon countered with its weapon. Fist and club like sword met with the shockwave and a loud bell like gong! The two were locked in a power struggle until the female smirked under her helmet and took a step back, using her momentum to launch into the spinning jump dodge as the hell knight stumbled forwards, caught off guard by the sudden loss in resistance. While spinning Symbol scanned her punch ring after pulling the right shift lever four times.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: VERY NICE: PUNCH S LEVEL SPELL: THE BEST]
The punch glyph winked in under her feet as she slammed her fist into the ground causing rock spikes to erupt from the ground and impale the hell knight.
Dante meanwhile grabbed a stygian with the demon pull and yanked it over to him, before slamming arbiter down sending a wave of demonic energy into the ground the fired it into the air. He then held up rebellion and blocked the attack of another and shot it with ebony and ivory. The hybrid of angel and demon was the forced to roll back way from the third stygian. “GAH!” He leapt away when he felt his boots burning. “What the-?!” He glanced at the veins and saw that they were leaking! “Sunset! Be careful of the pipes, they’ve got some kind of way to spray that acid!” Dante jumped over a stygian and smashed it to bits with a heavy downwards swing from arbiter. The Nephilim then spun osiris around in a wide circle, which slowly pulled the two monsters and himself into the air!
“Thanks for the advice.” Thanked Symbol as two tyrants arrived.
“So which one of you fat asses wants to be Limbo’s biggest loser?” Demanded Dante. He and Symbol each took one of them.
The Kamen Rider quickly changed forms, replaced the punch ring with the drill ring, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring with the purple gem.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: DRILL PLEASE!]
The drill glyph winked into being below the Kamen Rider, the sound of a drill being revved came from the driver as the glyph rose up through her, she grabbed the knob and twist it three times.
[Steel drilling!]
Running forwards the Kamen Rider slammed the core drill into the demon’s face, halting its charge before she uppercutted it with the core drill. The tyrant recovered quicker than the last one and backhanded Symbol! Sending her flying into a tank!
“SUNSET!” Shouted Dante in fear for his sister’s safety, before he was forced to block a swipe from his demon opponent with arbiter.
Sunset started to climb back to her feet, when the tyrant came down with body slam. It would have had a look of victory on its face. Sunset quickly took off the giga ring and replaced it with its red counterpart, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned said ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
The active glyph appeared to her left and moved through the Kamen Rider transforming her into the active style. She then took the defend ring, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: DEFEND PLEASE!]
The look of victory vanished when the tyrant heard that. Sunset just managed to push the monster off with her defend guard, but she didn’t have giga’s strength in this form so it took a lot of energy. “I don't know what to do.” Muttered the Kamen Rider. Suddenly, another memory plays.
Flashback:
A different looking Symbol was thrown the ground. “Come on Ruby stop using the same attacks over and over! Your not a machine!”
End flashback
Symbol shook her head. “Lets hope this works!” She took the boost ring, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned it.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
The sound of springs and bounce came from the driver as the boost glyph appeared to her right and moved through her, added the boost style to the active style. The grasshopper legs slammed into the ground sending the Kamen Rider flying over a swipe from the tyrant, flipping over in mid-air she reached the room and landed feet first before shooting back down! As she fell towards the demon Symbol replaced the active ring with the giga ring and pressed down on the right shift lever scanning it.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: GIGA PLEASE: BREAK THROUGH!]
The giga ring appeared and fell through her as she then slid on the punch ring, slammed her hand down on the right shift lever and scanned it.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: PUNCH PLEASE!]
The punch glyph rose through her and the sound of a boxing bell came from the driver as the Kamen Rider pressed down on the right shift lever three times scanning the punch ring once more.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: PUNCH A LEVEL SPELL!]
The punch glyph flashed under her feet as the rockets in her left below ignited. “Propellant swing!” She was sent blasting down like a meteor her attack smashed right through the tyrant’s fist and then smashed the demon itself to paste!
Dante had a somewhat easier time as his tyrant just kept trying to body slam or charge him, each time it left its back exposed to arbiter, after about five of these charges it was killed.
“Dante, Sunset!” Shouted Kat as they ran to the now open door. “You ok? That looked pretty nasty!”
“That? Nah. That was just a big fat joke.” Replied the Nephilim.
“Speak for yourself.” Growled out his Kamen Rider sister.
“Come on, let's go get that succubus!” Ordered Dante.
Dante his sister Sunset Shimmer also known as Kamen Rider Symbol were in Limbo. Kat their friend and guide was walking alongside them in the real world. They approached what looked like a mass of veins that went down a long vertical drop, vanishing into what looked like a giant fan.
“Now what?” Asked Dante the Nephilim as they looked down the drop.
“This tunnel will lead you to the succubus.” Replied Kat.
“And how on earth are we gonna get down there?” Asked Sunset. “Because I can’t fly us down, my wings won’t hold Dante’s weight for that long and none of our other weapons and powers will help.”
“You can only get there from Limbo. To me its a solid floor so I can’t follow you.” She reached into her bag and pulled out what looked like-
“Is that an egg-timer?” Asked Dante in disbelief.
“It's a vial containing a spell I made from a variety of-”
Sunset cut her off. “Please don’t tell us!”
“We don’t need to know.” Added Dante.
“You jump, I twist.” Explained Kat.
“Are you serious?” Asked Dante.
“You have gotta be kidding me!” Exclaimed Sunset.
“Trust me.” Came Kat’s reply.
Sunset shrugged and hopped off the ledge while Dante turned back and fell of. “I jump you twist.”
“Good luck.” Muttered Kat as she twisted the vial. The tunnel suddenly went from vertical to diagonal, another twist turned it from diagonal to horizontal. “You don’t have long! Hurry!”
“Wait this spell has a time limit?!” Demanded Symbol.
“Yes! Two minutes!” Shouted Kat.
“No time to fight! Just run!” Shouted Dante urgently.
“Speed is the key here!” Symbol took the active ring off her left middle finger and slotted it back into the left ring chain’s first slot. She then took the swift ring from the third slot and slide it onto her left middle finger. Symbol then pressed down on the left shift lever, resulting in her driver’s hand author turning to the left, the Kamen Rider then scanned the swift ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
The swift seal winked into being above her and zipped down through Symbol replacing the active style with the swift style. Not pausing in her running the girl took the wing ring from the right ring chains first slot, slide it onto her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: WINGS PLEASE!]
The wing seal appeared above her and moved down through the Kamen Rider adding her wing style to the swift style. Dante used the angel boost to get across the gap and Symbol jumped after him her wings carrying her across. They then jumped across a platform before coming to another gap this one having a lot of points that the angel lift could lock onto.
Symbol took the swift ring off her left middle finger, placed it back in the left ring chains slot, took the active ring from the first slot, slide it onto her left middle finger, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
The active glyph appeared to her left and moved through the Kamen Rider, transforming Symbol into her active style. She then took the boost ring from the right ring chains third slot, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
The sound of springs and bouncing came from the driver as the boost glyph unfolded from a spot of light to Sunset's right and moved through her. They jumped, Dante using the angel lift to get across and Sunset's jumps taking her up to the rocks that her brother’s weapon was using before she jumped to the next. One point was to far, so Dante used Sunset as a lock on point for the angel lift then the demon pull to yank her to the next point. “Thank you!” Shouted his sister.
“Your welcome!” Came the reply.
They ran past a pair of bathos and lesser stygian, Dante used the demon pull to move a square piece of rubble so that they could use it to jump off. Before he had to use the angel boost to get across to the next piece. Sunset switched the active ring for the swift ring and the boost ring for the wing ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: WINGS PLEASE!]
The sound of wings being flapped came from the driver as the swift and wing glyph appeared above Sunset in mid jump, her wings gave a big flap to take her across. The brother and sister landed and Dante had to use the angel lift to get to the next stable part of the tunnel while Sunset swapped the swift ring for the active ring and the wing ring for the boost ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
The sound of springs and bouncing came from the driver as the active and boost glyph appeared to her left and right respectively transforming the Kamen Rider into her active boost style. Her jump sent her rocketing across and landing next to her brother. They jumped across another gap, before getting to one that Dante had to use the angel lift, but it brought him up short. “Shit!” He used the angel boost get clear the rest of the way, with his sister following his example.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: WINGS PLEASE!]
They ran past a pair of stygians and Dante had to use the angel lift thrice, while Symbol changing back into her active boost style to follow him.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
“One minute!” Came Kat’s shout. But by now they had reached the access panel Dante used the demon pull to it was rusted in! Clearly no one had been down here in long time. “Open up!” He grunted.
“Let me help!” Symbol took the boost ring off her right middle finger and placed it back in the right ring chains third slot. She then took the bind ring from the second slot and placed it on her right middle finger. After which she pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BIND PLEASE!]
The bind glyph unfolded from a mot of light to her right and passed through the Kamen Rider. A chain made of orange energy came from the binding gauntlet, it latched onto the panel and the two grapple based weapons yanking it off.
Suddenly the tunnel started to return to being a vertical one again! “Oh wow! That really was an egg timer!”
“Get in here!” Shouted Symbol as she used her chain to grab Dante’s foot and yank him in.
“Ugh! What a stink!” Muttered Dante as he got back to his feet.
“You won’t get an argument from me!” Gaged Symbol as they ran down the tunnel. It's opening was above the fan in what looked like a large lake of orange liquid. In the centre of it was a raised island with several raised pillars. Dante squinted and saw what looked like a cocoon dangling from the ceiling in the centre of the island. “Wanna bet that's our Succubus?” Asked Sunset.
“I don’t make fool bets.” They hopped down and ran along the island towards the demon. “Ugh! Smells of sick!” Muttered Dante. “So you must be the secret ingredient!” Shouted the Nephilim at the demon.
“Who are you?” Demanded the demon it looked like a caterpillar or a slug with a pale shrivelled up lady inside it.
“I’m your prom date you ugly sack of shit!” Spat back Dante.
Four arms came into view and clenched, causing the pillars behind them to break apart and block the way back. The Succubus swung over, revealing it had four large arms and four smaller arms. “WHO THE FUCK ARE YOUUUU!?” It vomited some kind of goo that Dante hopped to the side to avoid and Sunset jumped over.
“You missed.” Chirped Dante. “My name, by the way is Dante!”
“And I’m Sunset!” Added the Kamen Rider as she dropped back down from the rock that she had been using the binding gauntlet to hold onto.
The Succubus made a choking noise. “Dante? Sunset? Son and daughter of Sparda? And Eva the whooorrrreee!?” She vomited once again, forced the two to dodge.
“Yep. But you can call me Dante the demon killer. Has a nice ring to it, don’t you think?”
“You want to kill me? You can’t kill me! I’m twelve hundred years old!” Snarled the Succubus as it swung back and forth.
“You don’t look a day over twelve thousand.” Came the blunt response from Sunset.
“Fuck you!” Snarled the demon
Since Sunset didn’t like to swear Dante replied. “Fuck you!”
“FUCK YOOOOUUUUU!” The demon vomited again signalling that the time for talk was over and the time for fighting had begun.
Cue gundam build fighters try op full
Dante opened fire with ebony and Ivory. “Stop spitting those pathetic little peas at me you scrawny little turd!” It drew back on claw to attack. Symbol saw this and took of the bind ring, putting it back in the right ring chains second slot, she took the defend ring from the fourth slot, placed it on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: DEFEND PLEASE!]
The sound of a shield going bong came from the driver as the defend glyph appeared to her right, it passed over the Kamen Rider transforming her into her active defend style. Symbol quickly pressed down on the right shift lever again and scanned the defend ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: DEFEND C LEVEL SPELL!]
“Innershine!” The defend glyph flash below her feet as wall of energy emerged from the shield stopping the blow, even though it managed to push the girl back several paces. While blocking the attack Symbol noticed that the Succubus flinched when several bullets hit its forehead that had slid out of its shell when it attacked. “Dante! Her forehead is the weakness when she attacks!”
The demon pulled back and brought its other claw around in a wide sweep. Symbol quickly pressed down on the right shift lever once more and scanned the defend ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: DEFEND C LEVEL SPELL!]
“Innershine!” The defend glyph flashed under her feet as the wall of energy blocked the attack. Dante ran forwards and slammed arbiter into the Succubus’s forehead. With a screech of pain to fell of, stunned allowing the Nephilim to start slashing away with his angel scythe. Sunset quickly pulled open sunshine dawn's hand author by yanking on its thumb and scanned the defend ring.
[COME ON AND SLASH SHAKE HANDS: DEFEND SLASH STRIKE!]
The defend glyph appeared around the blade as grey energy gathered within in the blade. “Dante get down! Sword vs shield!” Sunset swung the weapon an image of the defend guard appearing around it, the Succubus gave a wail of pain as the attack slammed into her forehead. It gave a loud screech of rage as some kind of orange light travelled up its body and to its head. Sunset's eyes widened as she realized what was coming. “Dante! Get behind me!” She ran in front of her brother as she pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the defend ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: DEFEND C LEVEL SPELL!]
“Let this work, Inner shine!” The defend glyph appeared under her feet as Sunset summoned an energy barrier between her brother and the demon.
“Sunset what are-?!” Dante was cut off as the Succubus spewed some kind of acid at them! The barrier held for a few seconds before the acid at threw it and splashed on Sunset's legs, Dante was hidden safety behind him. “SUNSET!” He screamed as his sister gave a roar of pain.
End song
“Do not move!” She ordered.
“But!”
“Dante please! My skin is much stronger than yours! My healing factor will have a lot less damage to repair than yours will if you go onto the acid!”
The man gave a grunt of frustration, but stayed still for several seconds before the acid on the floor faded and Sunset fell to her knees. He ran past her. “You heal! I’ll hold it off!” He knocked the demon on the forehead with a heavy downwards slash from arbiter, before he started to slashed away with osiris. “Hey Succubus!” Shouted Dante. He ran forwards and kicked it in the face. “Suck on this!” It nearly fell over the edge but was able to hang on. Sunset's legs had nearly finished healing from the acid, she pressed down on the right shift lever four times and scanned the defend ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: VERY NICE: DEFEND S LEVEL SPELL: THE BEST!]
The defend glyph appeared below her and Symbol channelled grey energy into the defend guard, before she slammed it into the monster’s face. “Fortress destroyer!” The demon’s face was lit up by a massive explosion that forced it back and caused it to dangle helplessly.
“Look, those connectors are what's holding it up!” Dante pointed to said connections and tried to grab one with the demon pull, but the weapon didn’t have enough range!
“We need to get closer!” Symbol looked around. “Over there!” She pointed to several floating rocks that could be used to get around to the next island which was closer to the connectors. Her brother used the angel lift while she swapped the defend ring for the boost ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
The boost glyph appeared to her right and moved across the Kamen Rider changing her active defend style for her active boost style. She jumped, the first one took her over to the rock and the second got her to the island.
“I’ll make the two of you pay for that, you stinky little piss weasels.” Screamed the Succubus as it climbed back up.
“HEY! No one talks about my sister like that! Nobody!” Shouted Dante. He charged and started to slash at it in rage when it gave a loud roar that sent him flying back and right into Symbol making them both fall to the floor. It then brought a claw around to slash at them, they both jumped over it, Symbol pressed down on the right shift lever thrice and scanned the boost ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: BOOST A LEVEL SPELL!]
She twist around kicking a boost glyph that appeared in front of her, it launched a blast of energy that slammed into the Succubus forehead, while Dante jumped up to it and slashed at the monster with rebellion the combined damaged made it fall over stunned.
Sunset then pressed down on the right shift lever four times and scanned the boost ring as Dante channelled energy into his sword.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: VERY NICE: BOOST S LEVEL SPELL: THE BEST!]
The boost glyph unfolded under her feet as she crouched down, waves of purple power coiled around her legs. “Atmosphere kick!” Shouted the girl as she rocketed into the air Sunset quickly reached the apex of her jump and came zooming back down. Dante finished charging his sword and unleashed his attack sending a wave of energy out that hit the Succubus on the forehead at the same time as Sunset's double kick.
With a roar of pain the Succubus was forced off the island, as it dangled helpless, Dane used the demon pull to break one of the connectors. “I’m going to pull off your arms and legs, chew them up and puke them all over your pathetic little faces!” Hiss the demon in fury as it pulled itself back up, smashing the island and pulling back its head to puke its acid.
“Dante! Let's get back to the other island!” Sunset jumped across while Dante came after her with the angel lift. “We’ll do a bit more damage then go for the right connecter!” Ordered Sunset.
Dante nodded. “Sure!” He opened fire with ebony and ivory.
“You stupid boy and girl child! Fight me!” Screeched the Succubus as it vomited, both of them escaping to the right with the angel lift and the boost grieves. The demon shouted even more very creative threats. “I’m going to break your legs off and stick them in your ears, you scrap of arsewipe!” It pulled back its claw for a sweep.
“Time for a bit more power!” Shouted Symbol as she took of the active ring and placed it back in the left ring chains first slot, took the giga ring from the second slot, placed it on her left middle finger, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: GIGA PLEASE: BREAK THROUGH!]
The giga glyph appeared below her transforming the Kamen Rider into her giga style. As the Succubus's claw came around in a sweeping arc she pressed down on the left shift lever twice and scanned the giga ring once more.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: GIGA A RANK SPELL!]
The giga glyph unfolded below her feet as green aura gather around crescent rose axe style which she slammed down. “Giga slam!” A blade of green aura burst from the ground stopping the demon’s claw in its tracks. “Now Dante!”
Her brother nodded as he leapt at the demon slashing away at its forehead with osiris. When it suddenly looked ready to start spewing again! “Er Sunset, please tell me you’ve got a way to block this!” Panicked Dante.
“Oh nuts! Please let this work!” Hissed Symbol. She took the punch ring from the right ring chains second slot, slide it onto her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the red ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR STYLE: PUNCH PLEASE!]
The punch glyph appeared below her and rose up through her Kamen Rider adding the puncher gauntlets to her arms as the sound of a boxing bell came from the driver. She then pressed down on the right shift lever four times and scanned the punch ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: VERY NICE: PUNCH S LEVEL SPELL: THE BEST!]
The punch seal appeared under her feet as red aura travelled into Sunset's fists. She drew them back before slamming them into the ground. “Molten spire rush!” A wave of magma spikes burst out of the ground and slammed into the demon’s underbelly. While it did no damage the monster’s aim was thrown off and all of its vomit went over the island!
Dante punched it in the face, then gave it a downward punch, forcing the monster to dangle and letting him use the demon pull to get the second connector.
“AAAHHH!! You disguised fuck children! I’m going to pull off your heads, piss down your necks and shit on your worthless carcasses!” She roared as she brought up her hands to crush the island. Forcing the two to flee with angel lift and active boost.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
They jumped away with the Succubus following them. It brought its claw around in a sweeping strike. “Power gives way to speed!” She replaced the giga ring with the swift ring and pressed down on the left shift lever before scanning said ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: SWIFT PLEASE: DASH AWAY!]
The swift glyph winked into being above her and zipped down through the Kamen Rider transforming her into her swift style. The Succubus swept its claws around which they both jumped over, Dante attacked the monsters forehead with his scythe while Symbol pulled open sunshine dawn dagger styles's hand author by pulling the thumb and scanned the swift ring.
[COME ON AND BLAST SHAKE HANDS: SWIFT BLASTER STRIKE!]
“Swift Million!” The swift glyph flashed on the hand author as the Kamen Rider stabbed so fast that her hand became a blur. The demon gave several grunts of pain before it let out a loud roar that forced them back, it gave another sweeping slash which the siblings jumped over, Dante then slammed arbiter into its forehead as Symbol pressed down on the left shift lever three times before scanning the swift ring.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: SWIFT A RANK SPELL!]
“Swift kicker!” Yelled the Kamen Rider. The swift glyph flashed under her feet as she ran forwards kicking the demon in the face, it fell to the ground with a groan of pain.
Then Dante sent the demon pull down its throat causing it to let out a raspy choke then a scream of pain as he pulled out what looked like its tongue!
“That is disgusting!” Deadpanned Symbol as she turned sunshine dawn back into its blaster style and fired off several shots. It gave a loud scream and slashed at them wildly. All of which were dodged, jumped over or ducked under. Dante flashed at the Succubus's forehead several times as Symbol pressed down on the left shift lever four times and scanned the swift ring.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: VERY NICE: SWIFT S RANK SPELL: THE BEST!]
The swift glyph flashed under her feet as several firing loops appeared around crescent rose blaster style. About twenty cones of yellow crackling energy appeared around Sunset before she pulled the trigger. “Swift lancer!” All of the cones shot forwards at lightning speed, slamming into the Succubus's forehead! It let out a wail of pain as it fell forwards!
Dante fired the demon pull and yanked the demon forwards, but its wasn’t enough! “A little help?!”
Sunset nodded, she changed the swift ring for the active ring, pressed down on the left shift lever and scanned the ring.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
The active glyph appeared to her left and moved through the girl changing her swift style for her active style. She then placed the bind ring on her right middle finger, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned said ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BIND PLEASE!]
The bind glyph burst into being to her right and the sound of chains clanking came from the driver as the glyph passed over the girl adding the bind style to the active style. She sent a chain from the binding gauntlet to add to the demon pull and the siblings PULLED!
The Succubus did its best to get a grip as it was pulled forwards, its tail coming out of the main connecter. The island couldn’t hold its weight and broke apart with Sunset waving bye bye and Dante just looking smug when the demon fell into the river. “Your dumped!” Stated Dante as the monster vanished below the surface finishing his prom date joke from earlier. They jumped away Dante using the angel lift and Ruby using the boost grieves to get over the gap.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
The sound of springs and bounces came from the driver as the boosted glyph appeared to her right and she used the new style abilities to clear the gap. As they ran towards the fan, the ground started to get pushed up by something that was under it. Then the Succubus burst out of the ground with a scream of rage! They both jumped back as it tried to punch them, only for it to fall back into the river with the siblings landing one a piece of rock. “I told the both of you! You can’t kill me!” Hissed the demon as it climbed and swam towards them.
It threw a piece of rubble at them as they jumped to another mini island Dante using the angel lift to do so. “Over there!” Shouted Symbol, she pointed to a piece of rubble that held up the wreck which the demon was on. The Kamen Rider changed the boost ring for the bind ring, pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned it.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BIND PLEASE!]
The bind glyph appeared to her right and passed over her as the sound of a chain being clanked came from the driver and Dante turned rebellion into the demon pull. Both of them yanked on the rock causing the pile of rubble that the Succubus was one to collapse making it scream curses.
“You little! I’m gonna! Argh!” It failed about before grabbing one to some more rock and climbing up, only for the two to grab its forehead with the demon pull and energy chain yanking it off. “Why won’t you just die?!” They jumped over it with the angel lift and boost style.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: BOOST PLEASE!]
The sound of springs and bounces came from the driver as the boosted glyph appeared to Ruby right and passed over her arming the girl with the boosted grieves.
The demon let go of the rock as it tried to grab them. It grabbed onto what was once a pillar that held up the island before it noticed how close it was to the fan!
“You know what your problem is?” Shouted Dante as he started to hack way at the monster’s hands.
Sunset pressed down on the left shift lever four times then scanned the boost ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: VERY NICE: BOOST S LEVEL SPELL: THE BEST!]4
The boost glyph flared under her feet as the girl rocketed up into the air. “Time to try something new!” She pressed down on the left shift lever four times and then scanned the active ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: VERY NICE: BOOST S LEVEL SPELL: THE BEST!]
"Atmospherethunder kick" Shouted Symbol as the active glyph flared under her feet causing them to be covered in bright red lightning and she rocketed down. She slammed into the Succubus, forcing it to let go of the rock and get pulled into the fan where it was crushed between the fan and the wall.
“Your to clingy!” Finished Dante. “I think your all mixed up.” He added, suddenly red energy flew from the demons corpse and red rock like gauntlets appeared around Dante's hands and a new ring appeared on Symbol's right ring chain.
With Mundus
The demon lord was having sex in his office with the ugly lady until he suddenly stopped. “What? What is it?” She panted wondering why he’d stopped.
“My Succubus.” Whispered Mundus.
“Really, must we talk about here?”
Mundus looked out a window. “My Succubus is dead.”
“Oh.”
Then he snarled. “Sparda.”
“The traitor. What of him?”
“His spawns! The Nephilim and the Kamen Rider. They fight back!” He punched the window out in rage!
Dante was running through a fun house in Limbo that he had ducked into in order to get away from the Hunter demon that was chasing him. Now that he had a few second breather without a demon trying to murder him, the man’s thoughts drifted back to the girl named Kat that had warned him of the Hunter. “Just who was that girl?” He thought. “And when am I not in trouble?!” Suddenly there was a loud bang of a gun firing. “There’s someone else in here?!” Dante had never run into a demon that could use a gun so that was a logical conclusion. Say what you want about the man, he’s a jerk and all around asshole, but he would never leave a fellow human in a place like Limbo.
It wasn’t a human but some kind of humanoid creature. Its head looked like a red helmet, it had a pair of white lines cutting vertically through the centre of it and the faceplate looked like a light blue circle shaped gem. On the centre of her forehead was a bronze coin, with a pair of white curved horns coming out of it, forming a V. Her skin from the neck down looked like a black full body spandex suit except for the forearms arms which were red, going down the side of her arms and the front of her legs was a dark blue line. Her hands looked like black gloves and her feet were in the shape of black combat boots. Her chest looked like a bronze coin with white outlines, her shoulders like red shoulder armour that curved down with white outlines. Her forearms were made in the image of red forearm armour, as was the back of her hands and her shins were made in the image of red shin armour with a pair of white lines cutting vertically through the front of it. The front of her knees were made to look like grey circle shaped knee armour and her shins and ankles looked like red bracelets and anklets respectively with silver frame work. Over all this she wore a black sleeveless overcoat with silver outlines and a high collar. Going around her waist, outside her coat was a silver belt, the buckle looked like a silver circle, with a black hand print in the centre of it that had golden outlines. On either side of which was a small silver square shaped lever and connected to the left side of the belt was a silver chain that had a single slot in it. On her left middle finger was a silver ring with a large red A shaped stone in the centre of it. In her hand she held a silver single sided sword, with the guard looking like a closed fist with golden outlines and having its thumb sticking out.
At that moment the creature was attacked by lesser Stygian. She pulled on her sword’s thumb making the hand open.
[COME ON AND SLASH SHAKE HANDS! COME ON AND SLASH SHAKE HANDS!]
The sword kept repeating that before she scanned the ring on the hand.
[ACTIVE SLASH STRIKE!]
A magical glyph appeared around the blade and covered it in bright red lightning, before the female brought it around and cut the lesser Stygian in half!
“So what kind of demon are you?” Asked Dante as he walked into the room, drawing his sword as he went.
“What are you-?! Wait a minute! I’m not one of these things!”
“Well, your not a demon and your not trying to kill me and since I’d feel like an ass if I killed someone that sounded like a teenager in cold blood, your free to go!” Dante turned away, when the girl shouted:
“Wait!”
Dante turned back to her. “What?” He asked a bit of anger and hostility edging into his voice as a result of his impatience.
“Can I come with you?”
Anger and hostility was replaced by shock and dumbfoundedness. “Seriously? You want to come with me?”
The girl nodded. “I’ve been here for about a month and you look like you know a way out of this crazy place!”
Dante could stop the wince. The longest he’d been in Limbo was a day and he’s nearly lost it! “Ok and now I’d feel like an even bigger asshole if I left you here. You can come but you’ve gotta pull your own weight!”
“Trust me that won’t be a problem.”
Dante turned and walked out of the room. “So what’s your name?” He asked in curiosity.
“Sunset Shimmer or but some people call me Kamen Rider Symbol.” Came the reply.
“Weird names.”
“So, what's yours?”
“Dante.”
“Then I fail to see how you are in a position to judge.”
“Touchie!”
Sunset / Symbol was just glad to have found someone that looked like he knew his way out of this nutso world, where some places where up was literally down! All she remembered was her two names and how to fight as well as the name of her sword which was Sunshine Dawn and how her powers worked. Everything else, where she learned to fight, her family and her friends was all blank!
The man and Kamen Rider went to the end of the hall, at which was a giant mirror. Suddenly it broke to pieces, with the Hunter Demon standing were the mirror once was. It snarled swiped at them, Symbol jumped over the blow and Dante leapt back out of arm reach. It demon gave a growl as it pulled out its knife, which Dante blocked with his impressive strength and threw over his shoulder through a wall! It snarled as said wall came down. “Hey GET BACK HERE!” Yelled Dante to no effect as the monster ran off.
“Nice.” Commented Symbol as the two of them ran to the end of the hall and took a left turn. Suddenly at the end of the hall a giant doll lit up with blue lightning! It was terrifying! “EEP!” Which Sunset demonstrated by leaping into Dante’s arms!
“Yeah I don’t like those things either, but we do have to go past it if we want to get out of here.” Explained Dante, while wondering why this girl seemed so familiar.
Sunset stiffened but nodded. They got past the doll, thankfully it didn’t light up this time. Dante put the Kamen Rider back down and they ran down a flight of stairs, before following the corridor around to the left, in the next room was a door with a neon green EXIT sign above it.
“Exit, good.” Muttered Dante, as he ran into the room.
“NO! Wait its a trap!” Shouted Symbol as she ran after him.
Suddenly, some of the gear’s around the room pulled themselves free of the wall and moved, blocking the way to the door. “Not good!” Muttered Dante.
“Oh geh you think?!” Shouted Sunset as she drew sunshine dawn sword style, getting ready for whatever kind of demon would be popping out of the ground.
“Yeah whatever.” Muttered Dante as a giant doll peeked out from a cabinet. One of the gears pulled itself free from the wall and roll through the floor leaving a gap as it went out of which climbed a Lesser Stygian. At that moment a giant bob wheel came loose and roll across the ground, nearly hitting Dante.
“LOOK OUT!!”
Who thanks to Symbol's warning was able to sidestep it, letting it slam into the demon.
The first wave was made of four Lesser Stygians.
Dante slashed his sword in an upwards arc sending one into the air, before he twisted around to dodge the blow of the second one and rammed his sword into its gut, forcing it back and grinding the demon to dust on the gears.
Sunset slashed at the first of her Lesser Stygians, clashing her sword against its club, before she uppercutted it in the face and spin kicked it into the gears, but the demon was able to survive. Symbol then ducked under an attack from the second Lesser Stygian and slashed it twice with sunshine dawn sword style each blow letting off a blast of red lightning. The Kamen Rider then saw that the other Lesser Stygian had gotten up, she quickly pressed down on the left shift lever once, turning the hand author in that direction and the belt to start singing.
[TOUCH TO GO AND CAST YOUR SPELL]
Sunset then scanned the active ring across the hand author, making the belt stop chanting at shout:
[ACTIVE C TIER SPELL!]
A glyph winked into being around the Kamen Riders right fist, it was an A, with a red circle within a red eight pointed star within a second red circle. She drew back said fist and slammed it into the ground sending out a blast of lightning in all directions “Lightning burst!” Whispered Symbol as the demons faded away, having been killed by the electrocution.
Dante slammed its sword down on the other Lesser Stygians head, before stabbing it so fast that it looked like he had ten arms!
While the man and Kamen Rider had been dealing with those pest, four more identical demons yanked themselves from the ground.
“More for me!” Muttered Dante, he started firing at them with Ebony and Ivory, his twin costume handguns, well more like hand cannons. That had been altered to fire bullets which were made of demonic energy, one of the Lesser Stygians was killed by the constant bullet barrage and the other was ripped to bits by several continuous spinning slashes from Dante’s sword.
Sunset was dealing with the other two, but as she blocked the attack from one of them with her sword and then booted the other away, sparks flew from her armour when she was attacked from behind by another two Lesser Stygians. “GAH!” Shouted the Kamen Rider in pain as she stumbled forwards. Symbol slashed her sword in the direction of the two Lesser Stygians that were behind her, only to get hit by the other two. “Nuts!” Muttered the girl as she fell over, all of a sudden another ring chain grew from the right side of her belt, it had a single slot, in which was another ring! “Please let this be something good!” The girl tore the ring from its chain and slipped it onto her right middle finger it was coloured red with a green gemstone in the centre of it that looked like three claws. Symbol pressed down on right shift lever turning the hand author to that side, causing the belt to start singing:
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS!]
Sunset then scanned the ring.
[SLASHER PLEASE!]
The sound of claws being unsheath came from the driver as a glyph appeared to her right side. It had three black claws in the centre, inside a green circle inside a golden eight pointed star inside a green circle. It passed through the girl just as the Lesser Stygians brought their weapons down!
Sunset's overcoat snapped shut and the front of it now bore a green raptor foot, with golden claws and in the centre of it was the image of three black claws. Her shoulder guards turned dark green with golden outlines and coming out of them was an upwards facing golden spike. Green armour materialized around her upper arms, coming out of which was a golden outwards facing spike. Symbol's forearm armour turned dark green and covered her whole forearms with a backwards facing spike coming out of it that covered her elbows. Sunset's bracelets turned golden the armour on the back of her hands turned dark green and out of which burst three foot long green claws.
Symbol crossed them over her chest, blocking all four hits from the Lesser Stygians. “So this form increases my strength a bit.” Muttered the Kamen Rider as she remembered how she had only just been able to block the blow from a single Lesser Stygian but was now holding four of them back with ease! She threw her claws up, forcing the Lesser Stygians back, before spinning to her feet, slashing at the legs of one of them as she did so, making it fall over. Sunset then stabbed her left claws through its head, blocking the blow from another Lesser Stygian she then rammed her other claw through its torso and forced it back. Using the demon as a battering ram, to force another one onto the gears killing it. Symbol then threw the Lesser Stygian who’s torso she had her claws in into the final demon. The female quickly pressed down on the right shift lever, resetting the hand author, before she scanned the slasher ring:
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: SLASHER C LEVEL SPELL!]
The slasher glyph appeared below Sunset again as her claws were covered in bright green energy. “Take this! Slasher attack!” She ran forwards bringing her claws around in an uppercut that split the first Lesser Stygian in half, before a second slash ripping the other in half via the waist.
“Well that's that!” Stated Dante. The two of them turned towards the door, when it suddenly extended away from them! “What the-?!” Going across the floor were two sections of five lines, which Dante idiotically ran towards.
“NO! Green Rush!” Sunset slammed her hand down on the right shift lever twice and scanned the lasher ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: SLASHER B LEVEL SPELL!]
The Kamen Rider blitz forwards as green energy shined around her body. As Dante ran across the lines one of the gears pulled itself from the wall and rolled towards the male member of the two. Symbol appeared and quickly knocked it back with her claws, before grabbing Dante and throwing the both of them over the lines. “Jump over them! Don’t run through something like that!” Shouted the Kamen Rider.
“Sorry.” Dante rubbed his head sheepishly.
Sunset rolled her eyes and jumped over the next line with the man following her through the exit, which thankfully stayed where it was this time!
As they reached the entrance Dante suddenly grabbed Symbol and yanked her back just as a spinning blade rolled past where she was just standing! “And you told me to be careful?” He questioned with a mock glare on his face.
“Sorry.” Replied the Kamen Rider just as sheepishly as he had. Suddenly, she looked back at Dante and covered her mouth guard to keep from laughing.
Said man raised an eyebrow “What?”
Sunset just shook her head and point to a store mirror behind Dante. Who turned to look, then stopped and stared at the white wig covering his black hair.
Suddenly they both heard a loud growling sound, both of them turned and saw the Hunter demon at the far end of the pier. “Let's kill it!” Cheered Sunset.
“Not in a million years.” Muttered Dante making Symbol look at him, just in time to see the man yank off the wing, pull out his guns and opening fire on the Hunter Demon.
Sunset pulled out sunshine dawn sword style, pulled the handle down and flipped the blade inwards, turning it into its rifle style and joining the bullet barrage.
“That won’t work.” Came a voice from behind the two. Symbol glanced behind her and saw that it was a girl, who seemed to be partly see through.
“Why not?” Demanded Dante looking at his guns as if they’d betrayed him.
“He’s bullet proof.” Shot back the girl.
“How do you even know that it's a boy?” Asked Sunset getting the girl to notice her.
“Who is this?!”
“Oh right, Sunset this is Kat. Kat this is Sunset.” Introduced Dante as the Hunter Demon leapt away over some buildings.
“There’s a rift up ahead!” Shouted Kat as she lead them away.
“A what?” Asked Dante.
“It’ll bring the both of you back to the real world! We can come back for the Hunter!”
“What does she mean the real world?” Asked Sunset as she and Dante jumped over two gaps in the pier that forms just in front of them. The buildings around them seemed to jump into the sky and break apart as they did so!
“Well, this is Limbo, sort of a space between the demon world and the real world!” Explained Dante. “So far the only method that I know of getting out is killing the demon that dragged you in here, but Kat thinks that these so called ‘rifts’ can get us back!”
Suddenly, Symbol fell to one knee. “What’s wrong?” Asked Dante in concern as he ran back, once again wondering why he was being so nice.
“I-I don’t know!” Panted Sunset, why am I so exhausted?!” At that moment crescent rose spoke up.
Dante hummed in thought. “This is your first time in this form? Right?”
Sunset nodded slowly. “Yeah.”
Dante pulled out his sword. “When I first got this I was exhausted afterwards. It's probably the same for you so you should change back into the form that you where in when we first met.”
Sunset nodded as she pressed down on the right shift lever and scanned the active ring on the hand author.
[TOUCH TO ENTER THE MAGIC: ACTIVE PLEASE: LETS GO!]
A glyph appeared to her left. It was all red with an A in the centre, inside a circle which was inside an eight point star that was inside a second circle. Sunset extended her arm to the left and it passed over her, returning the Kamen Rider to her active style. Symbol instantly felt better. “Looks like this style doesn’t use as much energy.” She muttered.
“Right, now, let's get back to running for our lives!” Dante and Sunset ran for it as the houses kept jumping into the air and coming to bits. Suddenly, something shot past them and into the funhouse where the rift was. The man and girl briefly saw a cable before whatever it was attached to was pulled out making the funhouse collapse! They both turned around and saw the Hunter Demon preached on the Ferris wheel as it put its grappling gun back behind its back.
“Well, that ways out.” Stated the Kamen Rider.
“Ok then, let’s fight.” Stated Dante to both the demon and female.
The Hunter leapt to the ground, just as the two were about to engage it a voice called out. “Dante, Sunset wait.” Kat ran past and threw a Molotov at the Demon it slammed into the monster’s face and exploded. The Hunter Demon shrieked in pain as it thrashed around. “It's working, you can fight him now. It won’t be easy Hunters are brutal fighters.” Warned Kat as she vanished.
“Yeah? Well so are me and Sunset.” Was Dante’s reply. The man opened fire with his guns, when Kat remember one last piece of advice that she could give.
“Dante, Sunset can you still hear me?”
“Yeah! We can hear you.” Shouted back Dante was Symbol used crescent rose sword style to deflect a knife swing rolling back with the force of the blow.
“Attack its face!”
“Thanks for the advice!” Shouted Symbol as she flipped sunshine dawn sword style into sunshine dawn rifle style and fired a spray of dust bullets at the monsters face, causing it to back off in pain!
Dante ran past the girl jumping into the air and slashing at the monsters face, with a roar it lasted out trying to hit him with a spinning back slash but missing, the man pulled out his guns and opened fire on the monsters face once again. It gave a roar and swung its blade in a sweeping arc, which Dante rolled out of the way of, only to be kicked back by the creature!
“DANTE!” Shouted Sunset, with a growl she pressed down on the left shift lever twice and scanned the active ring.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: ACTIVE B TIER SPELL!]
The active glyph appeared below the Kamen Rider as red lightning surrounded her fist. “Active thunder!” She zipped forwards and slammed said limb into the Hunter Demon’s face, sending it toppling over as electricity surged through its body. Dante ran past her and started to slash at its face with his sword doing major damage. Sunset quickly started to build up power as she pressed down on the left shift lever thrice and scanned the active ring once more.
[TOUCH TO USE THE MAGIC: ACTIVE A RANK SPELL!]
Wizard placed her hands together, before drawing them apart as bright red lightning gathered, forming into a bright red ball of pure electrical energy. The active glyph winked into being below her as the Kamen Rider drew the ball back. “DANTE MOVE! Active beam!” She thrust the ball forwards and it turned into a beam of red lightning which slammed into the demon, only for it to use the recoil to get back to its feet much faster! “Oops!”
The Hunter Demon leapt up to the fersis wheel. “Now shoot him down!” Came Kat’s warning as the monster pulled out its grapple gun and starting shooting, whenever it hit the ground a hand made of earth burst out and tried to crush them. Dante and Sunset spent the next five minutes dodging the rock hand while shooting back at the Demon, Dante with ebony and ivory and Wizard used crescent rose rifle style. Suddenly, the man tripped and the demon was quick to take advantage, it fire its gun and the earth hand grabbed Dante! “GAH!” He screamed as it started to crush him.
“GET AWAY FROM HIM ACTIVE ELECTRONIC!” Sunset pulled on sunshine dawn's thumb opening its hand author.
[COME ON AND SHOOTING SHAKE HANDS!]
Before she scanned the active ring.
[ACTIVE SHOOTING STRIKE!]
A loop of red energy appeared around the bottom and top of the rifle barrel as a ball of red lightning condense at the tip, before roaring out in a massive beam! It slammed into the Hunter Demon with a loud *KABOOM!* Sending it tumbling down!
“Thanks Sunset!” Dante ran past and used an upwards slash on the monsters face to launch himself into the air then come back down with a hard downwards sword slam. He then used his sword in several spinning slashes then a club strike. “Do you fucking demons even feel pain?”
Suddenly the monster pulled itself back to its feet and came at Dante with a spinning back slash. “That old trick?” Dante ducked out of the way, but that demon’s other arm came around and slammed into him sending the man flying!
“DANTE!” Shrieked Sunset.
The Hunter Demon leapt into the air and brought its knife down, Dante managed to twist out of the way but didn’t escape unscathed. He got a nasty cut from hits shoulder to his hip! “ARRGGGHHHHH!!” Shouted Dante in pain!
“GET AWAY FROM HIM! Green rush!” Sunset slammed her hand down on the right shift lever, turning the hand author in the corresponding direction and scanning the slasher ring.
[TOUCH TO CHANGE YOUR CLASS: SLASHER PLEASE!]
The slasher glyph winked into being to her right and transformed the Kamen Rider into her active slasher style.
She pressed down on the right shift lever twice and scanned the slasher ring once again.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: SLASHER B LEVEL SPELL!]
The slasher glyph appeared below the girl as she blitzed forwards, crossing her claws and blocking the knife as the demon drove it down towards Dante’s face. Unfortunately, while this form did give her a bit more strength, it was nowhere near enough to hold back the demon for long, especially when it started to put its whole body weight against the blade!
Thankfully Dante had recovered. He ran past her and jabbed his blade into the demon’s face before giving it a downwards heavy slash, then firing his guns. The demon backed off and leapt back onto the ferris wheel.
“Not this time!” Shouted Sunset as she pressed down on the right shift lever thrice and scanned the slasher ring.
[TOUCH TO CAST YOUR SPELL: SLASH A LEVEL SPELL!]
The slasher glyph winked in under Wizard’s feet as green energy drifted up from it into her claws making them glow bright green. Sunset then slashed them forwards sending six crescents of bright green energy at the Hunter Demon, cutting most of the muscles in its legs and forcing it to fall to the ground! It got back to its feet and clear decided that a change of tactics was in order. It vomited some kind of black fog that covered the area. Making it so that the man and Kamen Rider could barely see two feet in front of them! “This is disgusting! Are you ok?” Shouted Sunset.
“I can barely see my hand in front of my own face! How can I be ok?!” Demanded Dante. Suddenly a spinning blade flew out of the fog! “Move!” Dante tackled Sunset to the side, which she was able to repay seconds later when the blade came back, by deflecting it with her claws. They expected the blade to come back out of the fog where it had gone in, only for it to come at Sunset from behind! Drawing sparks off her armour. “Owie! What the-?!” The blade once again emerged, this time from their right!
“How the hell is he doing that?!” Demanded Dante as he rolled out of the way.
“I cut most of his leg muscles, so this fog must let him teleport somehow!” Shouted Sunset in return, then she glanced at her aura levels and paled. “I’m almost out of aura!”
“What’s aura?!”
“The energy that powers my attacks! I’ve got one S class spell left then I’m out!”
“Try and pin him down! I’ve got something that should be able to finish it! But I need time!”
“I’ll get you that time!” Sunset converted sunset dawn back into its sword style and pulled its thumb opening the hand author.
[COME ON AND SLASH SHAKE HANDS!]
Symbol then scanned the slasher ring on crescent rose’s hand author.
[SLASHER SLASH STRIKE!]
The slasher glyph flashed on the hand author as the sword’s sharp edge grew to energy replicas beside it. After several seconds of waiting the blade came flying out of the fog and Sunset shot forwards “Triple slash!” She swung the blade ripping the knife in half, before continuing on, she ran into the fog and slashed open the Hunter Demon’s side, it gave a loud roar of pain as Sunset yelled: “NOW DANTE!” Said man smirked as his sword glowed with red energy. “You got it!” He slashed the blade forwards, sending a wave of red energy at the Hunter Demon, splitting it in half!
Dante caught his breath and walked over. “Game over.” He stated smugly.
“Son of Sparda.” Growled out the demon.
“Son of who?” Questioned Dante, but he was ignored.
“You have been found. You are dead, just like your whore mother.”
“Whore mother? I don’t know my mother but if your calling me a son of a bitch then you wouldn’t be the first!” Dante brought his blade down on the demon’s head. He put the sword back on his back as Limbo faded into the real world.
“You ok?” Asked Sunset as she walked over.
“My mother, I barely remember her.” Muttered Dante as he fingered his necklace.
“Looks like we have something in common.” Dante raised an eyebrow at Sunset questionly. “I don’t even remember anything beyond waking up in Limbo.”
Now Dante started. “Nothing at all?”
“Nothing, except how to fight, my name and things that were engraved as a child like reading, talking and writing.”
Time skip
A few hours later Dante and Sunset were walking down a sidewalk when Kat drove up in a car. “Are you ok, Dante? Sunset?” She asked.
“How do you know ours name?” Asked the Kamen Rider.
“My boss knows you, he wants to meet.” When they didn’t say anything she added. “Please. I helped you both back there.”
Dante scoffed and leaned on the cars window. “Neither of us asked for your help.”
A police car went zooming by and Dante sighed before getting into the car alongside Kat while Sunset got in the back.
She pulled a U turned and drove away. “We know all about you, Dante. I’m with an organization called the order. Heard of it?”
“Something to do with that masked freak on the net?” Asked Dante.
“That's my boss.”
“Wonderful, can’t wait.” Came the sarcastic reply.
“Really?” Asked Sunset.
“That was sarcasm!”
Meanwhile a news bulletin came up on a big screen. “We just received reports of a terrorist attack that has taken place at the Bellevue pier in the western district of the city. Police are asking the public to remain vigilant as further terror attacks could take place anywhere, any time, when you least expect it.
Undisclosed location
A bald man was sitting in an office with a really ugly lady standing in front of the desk. “We have your scent Son of Sparda.” Stated the man. “Now it's just a matter of time.”
