002 devil arms forged [video]

[devil_hunter_d]

[Dante wasn't used to fighting without any of his usual style. Being brought down to human-level was a bit frustrating, and yet still he fought with bravado fit for a demigod. But after the third day of straight fighting it was beginning to wear the devil hunter thin. He was scratched and banged up, had a bullet hole or two that severely needed

You look like you could use some help.

[Several minutes later and with a bit of static.]

It's nothin'.

[i_forbid]

Your appearance says otherwise.

[devil_hunter_d]

I've handled worse.

[i_forbid]

If you say so. I just figure having some back-up would work in your favor. But if you're determined to go it alone, I can't stop you.

Ain't stopping anyone from fighting these assholes if they want. [That...is definitely the close you're going to get to him accepting help, especially from a stranger.]

[video]

[i_forbid]

Alright. Where are you?

[He flashes the video to show his surroundings.]

[He takes note of any unique details or buildings he can use to find his way. Once again he wishes he had some kind of map.]

I'm heading that way. Leave a few for me.

...think there's plenty here to manage that. [Which, if anyone here knew him well enough, would realize what an odd statement that is coming from the half-breed.]

[A short while later Kazuma finally arrives armed with a large steel pipe he picked up. He may not be able to use Nora's magic here, but there was no way he was going to take backseat and wait for others to protect him.]

Anything I need to know about these things or do they die easily?

[devil_hunter_d]

They've got some sort of armor that's a pain in the ass to get around, but they're human.

[He stands still for a second, glancing over his shoulder at his new ally and wondering why the hell he agreed to this. Whatever.]

Just hit 'em quick and hard, catch 'em off guard or they'll pump you so full of lead there won't be enough meat left to tell the difference between a person and a hamburger.

[i_forbid]

Humans?

[He looks at their enemies for a long moment, almost as if trying to decide something. Finally he mutters under his breath and quickly disarms and knocks out the person closest to him.]

We're just knocking them out right? There's no reason for this to ger bloody if they're only human.

[action]

[devil_hunter_d]

...They're killing us and you just want to knock 'em over the head?

[Dante isn't here to play nice. He doesn't murder humans--but he will and does kill those that earn it.

He takes a slice out of another foe with his large sword, tching at the other guy.]

Screw that.

[action]

[i_forbid]

We don't know their reasons for it and they're just peopl-[he jumps to the side, dodging a barrage of bullets and slips behind one of the soldiers trips them, before slamming the pipe into the side of their helmet.]

Trust me, I've faced far worse then these guys. And if they ever get brought here that's when we'll be in real trouble.

...Besides, I heard people have a habit of reviving here.

[action]

[Dante laughs out loud. Because really, you're funny. You don't even know the half of what he's been through.]

They're selfish and desperate--but it doesn't give them the right to murder people. And I don't think the scientist are going to revive their enemies. That's how they say it works.

[He picks up a fallen gun and aims for the throat where the protective layer is, in theory, the most vulnerable and starts firing.]

You wanna tie 'em all up and wait till they wake up, be my guest.
