Introduction
Sparda.
A name that has gone down in the annals of legend, revered as the dark knight-hero that saved humanity from the conquest of Hell. Having fought off and banished the Devil-King, sealing away the evil forces back to the demon world, and thus sealing his own demonic power, he saved mankind from becoming the slaves of demons.
However, the seals have long since been broken by his own son.
In feud that ended in blood, Sparda's two sons fought to control the fate of the gate to the demonic realm. Dante, having finally defeated his brother, Vergil, and closing the gate, walked away from the Temen-Ni-Gru tower at ease. He was certain the world would be free of any demonic infestation.
However, he never could have expected something such as this...........
Out of the blackness, a hideous creature emerged: it was tall and stalky, with grey skin protruding from a blood-red fur covering it's entire body. It had a skull-ish face, half white like a mask. The creature wielded a giant scythe used to destroy its prey.
It terrified any human near, because they all saw it. It chased down several, cutting them open and stealing their souls. It roared with the rage of a thousand Furies, mercillesly cutting victims down. From a door-like portal, several warriors in black robes emerged, swords in hand, to fight the devil. They were cut down, all of them, and devoured. It took the strength of three of these particular yet more powerful warriors, captains they are called, to finally slay the beast. Having done what they were assigned, the warriors returned from whence they came:
The Soul Society.
It is a place for fallen souls to go and live in their afterlives for eternity. Here, the Soul Reapers reside as the law of the land, bringing justice and order. Armed with powerful weapons called Zanpakutō, these warriors battle evil in all forms. Their greatest enemies are the Hollows, soul-eating demons that often break into the Human World and devour the souls of dead humans. The unfortunate soul who does not get eaten, but dwells too long in the Human World eventually becomes one of these creatures, waiting for a Soul Reaper to take their life. It is the unfortunate luch of the Soul Society that these monsters would soon become a bigger threat than ever........
Having broken a barrier into the Demon World, one such Hollow found itself in a world of complete and utter despair, even more so than it was used to. It came across the devils lurking within the Demon World, observing them, stalking them. It found one particularly short demon: grey skin, blood red fur, wielding a scythe. The Hollow sprang upon the demon, and the two monsters engaged in a struggle. It wasn't long until the Hollow was slain, its energy absorbed by the demon. However, this fusion of energy caused a drastic change: the demon grew in hight, standing over eight feet tall. It's face became half-ghostly white with features that resembled a mask. It acquired a voice, a very sinister, shrill voice. However, the most incredible thing it gained was power. Considerably more power than it ever had. It discovered a new ability as well: the ability to tear holes in worlds to travel to others.
The devils proceeded to find the world of the Hollows, desperate to gain the monsters' powers.
These demons became known as "Hell Bringers" to the Soul Reapers. It was doubtful if their power was enough to stand against this new breed of demon. They would require much more power, but from where to get it they did not know.
It was only a matter of time until their worst fear was realized:
The Hell Bringers had found the Soul Society.
If ever there be a time the Soul Reapers needed help, it was now.
He looked up at the tear in the sky, having cleaved a strange devil in two with a fell swing from his blade. Grinning, he decided to force himself through that rift........

OOC Notes
He hit the ground, landing on his feet with the grace of a felion.
Looking around, the up-close sights were rather annerving. The dirty town was crawling with starving people begging for money. Dante really didn't have time for their complaints. He had devils to kill, and an unknown amount of time to do it. These people had no idea what they were up against (neither did he, but that was his job). "Looks like the Great Depression hit you guys like a ton of bricks, huh?" he said to a random passerby. The locals eyed him strangeley, and some even went back into their houses. Dante noticed some whispering to one another. "Uhmmm, did I miss something?" he said aloud.
"YOU! STOP!" a voice boomed from behind. Dante turned, facing a guy with spikey black hair and a 69 tattooed to his face, dressed in a black kimono, surrounded by other people dressed in black kimonos. Dante had to contain a laugh. "What's so funny ryoka?" the guy with the 69 tattoo demanded. "Excuse me? The name's Dante, pal. I don't know who this 'Ryoka' person is, but there's no way he could look as good as me!"
Dante grinned. The kimono-wearing group placed their hands on their swords and eyed Dante warningly. "You're under arrest under juristiction of the 13 Court Guard Squads. You are in violation of the laws of the Soul Society. You are going to turn yourself in", 69 said. Dante rubbed his chin. "Nah, doin' hard time doesn't sound very appealing to me right now. Maybe some other time", he said, walking away. The 69 guy got mad. "You are going to hand over your weapons and come with me! Now ryoka!"
Dante stopped in his tracks. "I thought I told you.....", he said, unholstering his pistols, "My name is Dante!" With the last word, he flipped around, spraying bullets at the crowd of kimonos.
OOC Notes
Ichigo threw his hand back at the leutenant, telling him to halt. He didn't like this. "I don't know who you are, but talk your case out! There's no need to go about potentially injuring someone. He looked back to Hisagi. "What exactly is the problem anyway?" Hisagi looked at Ichigo with slight malice. "This ryoka is in direct violation of..." he quickly counted. "at least five laws of the Soul Society." Ichigo looked over at the man. "And who are you, anyway? I haven't seen you around, so where'd you come from? Did you recently die? Or do you intend on trying to destroy the society?"
OOC Notes
"You tell me what I want to know, or I'll put a bullet in you........possibly several". Dante's eyes flashed with malicious intent. He was ready for conflict. He came here (wherever here was) for conflict. And if these people had anything to do with the demon he encountered, God help them all. "So, you gonna start spillin' some info or do I need to end you here?"
His trigger finger itched.

OOC Notes
Dante wasn't much for taking orders from people, let alone a kid, but this Ichigo guy seemed to know the place called Soul Society, so Dante followed. The kid performed this move that was as quick as Dante's dash ability, and that's how Dante had to keep up with Ichigo. As the two made their way towards the strange presence, Dante bothered Ichigo with a question. "So, what are these Hollow things anyway?"
Ichigo didn't respond. He was really focused.
They made their way to the outskirts of the shabby villiage settlement. Dante stopped. He knew it was here. "It's around here", he said, pulling his sword, Rebellion, off his back. He gripped the elongated blade with both hands, his right hand being the lead of the two. It was almost as tall as he was. The handguard design was very intricate: a skull with horns, a ribcaged body beneath it from which the blade started. The skull had two rubies for eyes placed in its sockets, giving it an even more terrifying look. "Where are you ya bastard?" Dante said aloud.
From out of nowhere, a scythe pierced into Dante's chest, spilling blood all over the ground. The blood dripped from the scythe into the pooling puddle at Dante's feet. By the look on Ichigo's face, it seemed the kid thought Dante was done for.
But the devil hunter just laughed.
"That's all you got? Please. I know people's grandmothers who could kill better than this!" And with that, Dante quickly spun around several times, causing the demon to break it's grip on the scythe handled. After the hideous creature was flung to the ground, Dante grabbed the scythe handle from behind him and pulled the large weapon out of him, causing more blood to spurt from his person. He threw the scythe to the ground and looked at the recovering beast: It was tall, at least eight feet in height. It was a lanky figure, very skinny. It's skin was grey, with the exception of one half of it's face being white and mask-like. It's body was covered in blood-red fur, stopping at the shins and forarms, from which grey limbs protruded. The demon had long horns on it's head that curved upward, black in color.
It roared in fury, stalking over to Dante. "You'll pay for that, son of Sparda!" the demon roared. "Oh, so we know who I am already? Good, I hate introductions. I'm always afraid I'll forget my name....."
"SILENCE!" The demon thundered. With an outstretched hand, it called it's weapon back to it, the giant scythe flying into it's grasp. "You'll die here now, wretched filth of Sparda! You and every Soul Reaper in Seireitei! And then, we can finally fulfil our destiny!"
Dante cocked an eyebrow at this. "The only destiny you're fulfilling", he started, "Is being sent right back to Hell where you came from!" Dante rushed the demon, and a chorus of blades rang out in the air. Dante was quick, but the devil was unrelenting. It seemed like Dante had gone up against something that was on level grounds with him. "Ichigo!" he said, not tearing away from the battle, "I could use some help over here! Any time you feel like takin' your thumb outta your ass!"
OOC Notes
Ichigo rose, bleading from his head. "That one had a little more power in it." The creature flash stepped behind Ichigo and smashed him into a wall. "Gah!" It then lifted him and threw him like a ragdoll into the ground. "I'm getting my ass kicked here!" Ichigo yelled through a cough of blood.

"You do a lot of talking ugly! How about you prove me you're more than just an unholy gasbag full of threats!" And with that, Dante was knocked aside, the devil getting angrier. "As you wish!" it roared. Curling up, the demon began emitting an ungodly amount of demonic energy.........or spiritual pressure in Ichigo's case. Dante stood quivering, his body feeling the effects of the devil's attacks. But he couldn't release all of his strength. Not here.
He gripped Rebellion tightly, charging his own demonic energy into it. The blade glowed red with an electric-like energy. When it got to it's maximum strength, Dante let it go. It was his Drive attack, similar to Ichigo's "Getsuga Tenshou", but the actual energy wave was of smaller proportion, and crawled on the ground rather than flying through the air. It still packed a mean punch, hitting the demon square in the front. It howled with frustration. "You'll pay for that son of Sparda!" it fumed.
Bent over, several spikes erupted from the demon's flesh, white in color. A white tail burst from its back end, and the white part of it's face began overtaking the entire facial structure. It's red fur began to tear away as it's skin turned a ghost white. There were rough patches of red fur on the demon now, its grey skin now all white. With scythe still in hand, it glared at Dante with evil eyes and a wicked grin. "Now, this is where you DIE!" it said, hurling the scythe and Dante and pinning him to a nearby tree.
Dante's body went limp, Rebellion slipping through his fingers and landing with a clang to the ground.
The devil laughed maliciously as Dante furiously bled out.

"Ichigo, get back!"
Ichigo wouldn't heed Dante's warning. The demon looked feeble now that Ichigo had slain it's Hollow side, but it was far from it. Dante had noticed the demon had been absorbing energy from the atmosphere when he and the devil were locking blades just a moment ago. I can't risk unleashing my full power here! Damn! Dante thought. I have to make due with my limitations. Dante, summoning up a vast amount of his demonic power, felt his strength increase about tenfold. It wasn't enough to match Ichigo's strength as he was now, but it was enough to properly dispose of the devil he now faced. Dante picked Rebellion up off the ground, holding firmly. "You wanna play you freak? Let's play!" Rebellion started glowing with a white light, and it seemed to be melting down in Dante's hands. When it reshaped, Dante had two serrated-edged swords in his hands, one red and the other blue. "MWUHAHAHAHAHA!" the swords echoed in unison. Dante bashed the two blades together. "What did I say?" he said to the blades.
Silence reigned for a moment.
"No. TALKING!" he finally said. The swords were quiet.
"Good". His attention went from his newly formed swords to the demon. "Sorry to keep you waiting. This is where you die now!" And with that, he rushed the demon, slashing at it with his twin swords. Out from the blades came fire and wind, from the red and blue swords respectively. Dante was displaying masterful swordplay, flinging the swords in his hands, wildly cutting the devil he was facing. He placed the pommels of the swords together, spinning the unified swords together like it was a double bladed weapon. Cutting into the demon's flesh, roars of infuriated agony pierced the wind. The demon slid backwards on its feet, trying to evade Dante's fury.
But it wasn't enough.
Dante jammed his swords in the ground, sending a path of flame and gale toward the demon, striking it fiercely. The demon was knocked into the air, and rolled at least eight times when it hit the ground before smashing against a tree. It stood, giving Dante a look of pure hatred, which the devil hunter returned. "You guys might wanna move."
Dante, placing the pommels of the swords against each other once more, taunted the demon to where he was. The monster rushed him, falling straight into his trap. Dante held the swords high over his head, spinning them around furiously. The storm of fire and wind born from that maneuver was enough to tear flesh from bone.
And it did.
The demon was ripped asunder before disintegrating into ashes, falling as a heap at Dante's feet. Spinning the swords around in his hands, Dante placed them back together, side by side, and watched them reform into his familiar sword Rebellion. He placed the weapon on his back, and turned to face the Soul Reapers. "And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how you kill a demon!" he remarked.
Hisagi stepped up with his blade to Dante's throat. "Good. Now I believe you have some questions to answer..........Dante."
"At least you got my name right this time", Dante smirked.
OOC Notes
"You really know how to kill those things." Ichigo said, stretching his arm. "How did you kill it? There may be more coming and if we all know how to fight, we can help protect this world."
OOC Notes
"I can't tell you how I kill these things. Just know that I'm the man for the job. Nobody does this like I do. Not even you Nero......"
Dante paused. He just now realized how much alike Ichigo and Nero's voices sounded. "Sorry. ICHIGO. That's it. Anyway, even with that 'Bankai' thing you did, I don't think you have what it takes. Sorry."
Dante started walking away, before he realized what he needed. He turned back to Ichigo. "Uhmm. Who's in charge around here? Anyone?"
Dante was completely lost as far as this place was concerned. And he didn't want to figure out where everything was on his own. But he was sure he pissed Ichigo off, so getting some directions might be difficult.

"You're not focusing your spirit energy into your blade. It's unsealed, and weak. Thats why I cut through it." A that word the two left with the girl who'd given Ichigo his power. "Rukia!!!"

Ichigo smirked. "So what do you say? Want to look over me and tell me I cant to it again?"
OOC Notes
Dante was only trying to be honest, not to brag. He really didn't want to see this kid murdered by the likes of the devils he fought with constantly.
"So, do yourself a favor, and take me to your leader."
OOC Notes
"I've got this handled! Now get outta here!" Ichigo replied once more. You could almost see competative sparks between Ichigo and Dante. "Get it through your head. I can handle those creatures! I've handled ten times worse!" Both Dante and Ichigo had their swords drawn, waiting for the other to strike. "I'll take you wherever you want to go when you stop acting so damn stubborn!"
