Ch. 5: My name is....

A month passed after that night, I discovered somethings about Dante; For example, the man adored pizza, without olives and strawberry sundaes. However there was still so much that was hidden within but it didn't seem to matter at the time.  What mattered was getting my memory back or Dante in general. But as time rolled Lady and Trish grew on me and later they to were important to me. The three of them…Were the only people I actually considered my 'family'. Days with them were relaxing and filled with much jubilation. Despite Dante's and Lady's bickering from time to time. Which were funny. Especially when it came to choosing my 'temporary name'. At first my name was going to be "Britney" (apparently I looked like one) but that was soon shot down then there was suggestion for "Jasmine" as my name. The heterochromatic woman and platinum haired male drew their last straws and the words flew. Trish and I watched them for a small while then went to the kitchen to eat something.

"Honey." Trish said to me. I looked up at her from my half eaten warmed up pizza.

"Yes Trish?"

"If we pick a name for you…Would you be okay with it?" 

I blinked a couple of times and processed her question in my head, then shrugged. 

"I don't know….Depends what name you give me." I answered then went back to eating.

Not much later Dante and Lady came into the kitchen.

Trish turned "Settled things?" 

"Heh. We did more then settle things." Dante replied.

"Shut it Dante before I put bullet holes in your skull."

"Shesh. I was just kidding. Can't you get a joke?" Lady ignored his comment. "ANYWAY~." He began. "Lady and I thought of just letting you name yourself kid." 

"Really?" I looked at the both of them.

"Yea really." Lady answered. "Me and Dante couldn't agree on anything so might as well."

To be honest, I didn't know what to really say other than. "Okay..."

All of them looked at me, waiting. My eyes went to each one then I sighed.

"I don't know what to call myself......Wait..." I turned to Trish. "Trish~? What is my eye color?" I asked.

"They're violet."

"Okay....From now on...My name is Violet." I looked at them with a smile. "Well?"

My mother-figure let out a soft laugh. "I think it's cute."

"It suits you, kid." Lady added.

Dante agreed. Then the phone suddenly ranged. "I'll get it." 

"Okay." We replied. Lady and Trish were talking about something. I wasn't paying to much attention; I was watching Dante talking on the phone. Soon he came back.

"Let' go babes. We got a mission today." The two woman smiled.

"About time." The brunette woman said as she went to go pick Kalina Ann. I stayed put where I was and watched as they got ready for their mission. As I always did. 

"Alright Honey." Trish said to me. "Do you remember what we told you?"

"Yup." 

"What were they?"

I thought for a moment. "Don't answer the door for nobody....Don't burn the house down and......Don't throw a party without Dante?"

Lady and Trish turned their heads towards Dante.

He stare back. "What~?" He said. "It's not a party without me!"

A small giggle slipped through Trish's lips as Lady groaned. I kept quiet and smiled.

The trio then turned their gazes back to me. 

"We won't be gone to long alright, Babe?" Dante told me as he patted my head.

"Okay." I replied. When they started for the door. I followed them. And when they walked out. I bid them farewell and good luck. Something I also did when they left for a mission.

They all waved goodbye to me. I closed the door and looked around the office. I'm all alone. In this office....What can I possibly do? I thought. Instead of describing what I did. I'll just give a list of what I did. I played Animal Crossing on my DS, then sang/danced around the office. I also ran around the house when I drank alot of soda. Dante isn't very good at hiding things, just to tell you. Unfortunately I had to go to the bathroom while I was washing the dishes. (God I hate when that happens!) So I quickly went to the bathroom, but when I came back. The dishes were done. I tilted my head to the side. I knew I didn't do all the dishes before going to the bathroom. Holy crud! Did fairies do all this for me? I smiled, going back into the office. When I entered, I noticed there was a brown parcel sitting on Dante's desks. Okay~?....Now....How did that get there? Approaching it slowly. I know it wasn't a good idea to check what's inside. It could've been a bomb or something for all I now. Curiousity however, got the best of me. When I was real close to it. I could smell sweet aroma radiating from the brown box. It was becoming irresistible NOT to open it. A unsuspecting surprise came out. It was an a delicious apple pie inside with a small note.

It read:

For job well done.

Bon appétit~

:3

Flipping the note to the other side to see if there was anything else written. Nothing. That was all that was on the slip of paper. My eyes then eyed the pie. It was just begging me to take a bite of it as it laid across the desk. My reason told me not to eat it. Sadly I pushed it away and devoured the pie. Every. Last. Bite. In my head, I deserved it. Once it was all gone I let out a sigh of contentment. "That was good." I giggled and went to the couch and played on my DS again. Five minutes later, I was getting so torpid. I couldn't keep my eyes open. Letting out a yawn, I saved my game and laid on my side and closed my eyes. The last thing I heard was my DS. Falling to the ground.

-----------------

Dante's POV

I knew it! I FUCKING knew it! Right when we stepped foot in that place. Something was off. Lady, Trish and I easily killed the demons inside. It was way to easy. Easier then that time I nailed that chick after I said she was hot.....Okay...Maybe not that easy but it was close. The babes felt the same way as we explored more of that warehouse. When we got the big cheese and killed him. Before he died he gave a sick smirk when I stomped on it's chest.

"HEHEHEHEHE! Would you like to know something! Do ya? DO YA?!" He chortled loudly.

"Ya I do. I wanna know when ya gonna shut up and die." 

"Ohohohoho~. That'll happen soon but I think you'll want to know this~." His face then formed a cheshire grin. "That girl you saved a month ago....Well~ HAHAHAHAHA! She's long gone! Gone Tell ya!" Insane laughter consumed the room. I pulled the trigger and shot his head.

"OW! Oh! But if ya hurry. You just might be able to stop them! HAHAHAHAHAHA~!" He laughed louder. And it was starting to get on my nerves. 

"Who's them?"

The demon dumbass continued to laugh and that's when Ivory and Ebony got to work. I kept shooting his head until he stopped laughing. And breathing. When the silence came back I turned and exited the room. Lady and Trish were done with the devils that were once outside the room.

"What happened?" Lady asked me. I ignored her though and ran out of the building. I had to hurry. Whether or not that basturd was saying things. I had to make sure....Violet was safe. With my demonic speed I quickly went back to the shop. Once I arrived I busted through the shop's doors. 

"Violet?!" I cried out. When I didn't see her in the office area. I went to the kitchen fast. She wasn't in there either! Where are you? 

My feet then raced up the steps and checked all the rooms. And all of them were empty. I slammed my fist into the wall. Making a huge dent into the wall. I had to keep my cool. I knew if I got angry, it wouldn't help the situation. So I did what I had to do, and think. Soon Lady and Trish came inside the shop. Lady came stomping up the stairs. Great~. Just what I needed.

"Dante! What the hell?!" She yelled at when her red and blue eyes saw me. I was about to say something until;

"Lady...Dante."  Trish was downstairs when she called. Lady and I looked at each other. 

"We're gonna talk about this later." She told me before she went down the stairs. I shrugged and followed her.

I stared at her ass while we went downstairs. Sorry, I couldn't help myself. If it's there. I'm gonna stare. Hey that rhymed! But anywhore~, When we got into the office, my eyes went onto Trish. 

"What is it Trish?"

She handed me a note. "I found this." 

I took the note and read it.

For a job well done!

Oh! But where's the little girl~?

>3

I frowned, crumbled it up and threw it aside. "Alright. What else do we got?"

"This." Lady pointed out the personal size pie bowl sitting on my desk. It was completely clean. Damn....Someone was hungry. I went over to it and looked at it. I had to admit. These demons were smart. Violet loved apple pie, and wouldn't pass it up if given the opportunity to eat one. I looked over to where the couches were and saw Violet's DS on the floor right by the couch. I walked over and picked it up. Examining it I noticed it was still on. I opened it and it was title screen. I sighed and turned it off and placed it on the couch.

"Dante."

I turned around.

"Let's go find her." Trish said while Lady smiled.

I chuckled. "Good call. I was thinking the same thing." I said as I lead them out the door. 

Time to kick some demon ass!
