"I'll Hold You True"

Your cruel device
Your blood, like ice
One look could kill
My pain, your thrill

Their swords clashed against one another with a force as such to send reverberations through the rain soaked ground. Icy blue eyes locked with darker blue as identical mouths twitched up in a feral snarl. Sparks flew from the crossed blades as they ground them together, each trying to gain the upper hand. Rain drenched platinum hair clung to their faces, their stances were sturdy, frozen, waiting for the opportune moment, a break in defences.

Dante looked on as aggressive as he could, putting on a mask for his dark twin, but inside his defences were down. He didn’t want to be here…here doing this. Why did it have to be like this? Why couldn’t things have stayed just the way they were? Damn their father. It was his fault this happened. All his fault.

I want to love you but I better not
touch
I want to hold you but my senses
tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too
much
I want to taste you but your lips
are venomous poison
You're poison running through my
veins

Vergil noticed a lapse of concentration in his brother’s defences. It was all he needed to drive an attack. He threw his weight into the swing of Yamato, forcing Rebellion out of the younger twins hand, sending it flying, spinning through the air.

Dante squared his shoulders to face Vergil full on. He saw him draw Yamato back. He looked on, not breaking the eye contact with the other. He saw the tightening of his muscles as he prepared to deliver the final blow. He blinked, and in that second he felt cold steel pierce through his chest, he felt the pain explode, he felt…empty. He breathed slowly, forcing the pain under control. Vergil’s expression didn’t change. The same icy emptiness was still in his eyes.

Dante’s mouth dropped slightly open as weariness stole over his body. His breathing slowed and eyelids became heavy. His body was failing.

Vergil held Yamato in place for several seconds, feeling the slight tremors Dante’s body was giving off. An invisible smirk spread across his face at his triumph before retracting the blade and turning, walking away.

Dante fell backwards as his only support was ripped away. He saw the retreating form of his brother, his gait as haughty as always. The air was pushed from his lungs as he hit the ground. He remained still for seconds, forcing the nausea down before moaning and moving slightly. He didn’t know what hit him when Vergil’s form came back in to his line of sight and thrust Yamato back into the unsuspecting twins chest, impaling and pinning him to the floor.

A bright white flash erupted behind his eyes before darkness took over.

Rebellion hit the floor with a loud clatter.
