Devilish Intervention
Chapter 6: Friggin Girls...Can't Live With Em Can't Live Without Em
Previous Chapter------Improvised Camp Hawke's POV------
I slowly opened my eyes. My head ringing as if a little midget was slamming a gong against a wall in my head. I winced as I sat up. When I opened my eyes I found myself not in a cage in some Minotaur slave compound (yes minotaurs. I'm not making this up), but in front of a warm camp fire with a red leather coat draped over me like a blanket. I raised my eyebrow, and placed my un-clawed hand on the side of my head trying to get rid of that constant pounding in my cranium.
"Oww..." I groaned sitting up, and sitting cross legged in front of the fire. That was when I noticed...him. He was a tall handsome guy in my opinion with a head of shaggy white hair. He...oh my, I felt a blush work it's away along my face, he wasn't wearing a shirt, and I was assuming that this coat was his..., but I must say he must work out a lot! His legs were also crossed as he poked the fire with a mischievous grin on his face.
"Morning sleeping beauty." he said laying down the stick he had been poking the fire with, and looking in my direction. I gasped. His eyes were red as blood, and filled with mischief, humor, and...sorrow. I'm rather good at reading people. Espessialy their eyes.
"Hello...who are you, and where am I?" he may have saved my life, but I wasn't going to 100% trust him yet. I siliently casted a truth spell on him, and awaited his explanation. You see I had not only gained Hawke's gear, and hairstyle, but I got her spells, and more! It's like a buy one get five free!
"Name used to be Daniel, but I go by Dante these days, and as for where you are. This is the Everfree forest. Most dangerous, and untamed place in Equestria, and oddly my safe haven." he answered. Well ain't that great. Most dangerous place in the world...great idea running here Cass.
I think introductions are in order. I'm Cassidy Samuel Brooks, I'm five foot nine, and with a long head of jet black hair that seemed to never mess up. Still trying to figure that out..."I'm Cass..." I told him.
"Ima call you Hawke." he said ignoring what I had said. I just huffed. My older brother was just like this. Poor Thomas he's probably terrified for me, or my freaking dad forced him to shut up about it. He's probably swimming in pity money...stinking jerk. Hope that dick I call a dad steps on a Lego...why do I feel a slight shiver? "Well when we are around locals. In private I'll call you Cass, but the locals see me as a terrorist of sorts, it's lies I tell you, and seeing another one of my kind might set things off. Also Celly kinda has a spell that can...erase someone if she knows their true name." he shivered...as did I. Being able to erase someone from existence if they only know your name...things like that don't deserve to exist.
"Caution noted...well what do you know about this place?" I asked. He just grinned, and said 'In due time'.
------Dante's POV------
Heh I love making things mysterious. Really makes things more enjoyable. "So you hungry? I did some hunting while you were out. Hope you like Manticore." I said as I turned the spits of the said meat over the fire. "I'm no Gordan Ramsey, but I'd like to think I can heat a slab of meat." she nodded.
"I would like that." she said. So I handed her a slab of grey cat-scorpion meat, and leaned back. I then noticed her staring at me, and her ever present blush plastered on her face. I sighed.
"Mind if I have my coat back?" I asked her. She blinked, and scrambled to grab the coat before hastily flinging it at me. Heh she's flustered...it's adorable! So I put my red coat on, and closed my eyes for a nap. I was rudely interupted by a feminine scream, and a sword impaleing my chest...*sigh* "I just wanted a nice nap...was that to much to ask?" I said kicking away the demon impaleing me, and he took his weapon with him.
I jumped up, and watched Cass flinging her staff, that I now recognized as Hawke's Key from the legacy DLC. It looked very different up close, and lightening blasted demons back as they approached. She swatted one away, and held out her hand "CHAIN LIGHTENING!" she yelled firing the very spell. The bolt jumped from demon to demon making the dog like creatures spaz like they were having a seizure. She then cast Rock armor, and Fireball.
As she dealt with them I turned to face my crowd of demons. I cracked my knuckles, and drew Rebellion "Fetch!" I said chucking the Devil Arm at the first demon I saw. It impaled it to a tree with a whimper. The others roared, and drew swords, axes, and scythes all jagged, and black. I smirked, and Rebellion flew back to me. I caught it, and by two handing it I swept it into the crowd splitting half of them at the waist. I took a quick look over my shoulder, and my eyes widened.
Cass was on her knees panting with all the demons attacking her frozen solid. Hot damn she was efficient. I drew Ebony, and Ivory and prepared to unleash hell...huh I just realized how many times I've said hell to a demon...to many that's for sure, but I digress. I aimed the twin terrors at the remaining horde of demons, and activated my charged shots. Before I managed to fire them I heard a calming ring in the back of my mind. Before I could ponder what it was I felt the floor give out below me as I fell through the void.
------After The Little Misadventure in Another Dimension------
I dropped out of the air above my camp site, which was now barren, from the rip in the void. "That was fun...hope I can see Asphyxious again soon." I said to myself as I gazed around my camp...my grin fading when I saw it in ruins, and Cass nowhere to be found. I began to panic summoning Beowulf, and searching every nook and cranny of the area. I found nothing, but hoof prints, burns, and toppled trees. I activated my limbo vision and found my answer. The area was filled by a familiar demonic energy. "CELESTIA!!!!" I yelled in rage.
She will not take another innocents life! Cass was still alive she had to be! I got into a spiriting position, and then with a single push I dashed at full speed. Knocking over trees, and dashing over rivers. I was headed to Ponyville.
I knew Celestia she would wait for me there with the Elements, and her guards, and hopefully Cass...Hope...please don't lead me astray. I kept running my rage never fading...only growing.
