"Hmm..." he pondered. "Looks like no one would find us there, and maybe there are ample supplies that we can use...hopefully."
He then held Willow by the wrist, who seemed to be shaken after what happened (to him, anyway). He turned to Dante, "Go ahead and lead the way, sir. No offense, but I don't think I have any capability to lead."

"Well, isn't she the lively..." he said as he watched Cali run ahead. Dante back-tracked and grabbed his Harley, walking with it towards the abandoned building. He parked it in front of the entrance and covered it with rags and other trash to hide it. "The name's Dante, by the way," he said, looking at the other two. "And your names?"

"Lord give me the strength to defeat the darkness.."Willow had kept silent the whole time, letting the stranger tug her around. It had been awhile since she'd seen ...humans. Even then she was socially akward, she pulled her wrist from the stranger and walked, keeping her dirt and blood stained face down. But her eyes were on Dante's hands. Since when did people have powers!?
"W--willow" she said softly. Her eyes kept darting around out of habit. Even though Cali had removed her wounds she could still feel the pain in her mind. A crackle from a burnt piece of wood made Willow jump. Being on the run did that to a person. "I know..that..this...has been going on for awhile..but what is this exactly.?" she asked innocently. " ....Because I can't do this alone..."

"Isn't it obvious?" Dante finished hiding his bike and turned to face the two. "It's the end of the world."
Dante and the others made their way up the building through the stairs. The elevator was broken and it seemed like there was no electricity in the place. Dante's muscles were tense, listening for anything that might sound like an enemy. They were exploring enemy territory and there was a high chance that they might get hit by an ambush. He slowly climbed the stairs, rounding fast at each corner, hands and feet aflame and ready.

"Lord give me the strength to defeat the darkness.."... Willow listened to Dante speak. The end of the world? Then why were the soliders...and then how did? Her mind was so exhuasted,confused,pained and tortured. Somewhere in her mind she knew that the souldiers were looking for her. How was that safe for any of them. Upon reaching a safe level she remembered the backpack she had on her. "I have food" she whispered. SHe had a huge blanket and some other needs. But she didn't know that she'd find people..anyone at all. Looking around the room Willow realized how long it had been since she slept. But she was too scared too. She looked to Dante. "How..how can you hold fire like that?" she sat down slowly her knees buckling from exhuastion. She opened her backpack to hand out what she had for food. ... " ....Because I can't do this alone..."

Dante looked at her and raised his hand, igniting a fire around it. "I don't know but I got this power from Wrath the Sin and I've been using it to fight the souldiers ever since." He watched as the others went to sleep. It looked like the others couldn't fight off the souldiers by themselves. He had to protect them. "Get some sleep. I'll keep watch tonight."

"Lord give me the strength to defeat the darkness.."... Willow thought about it. But she put her arms on her knees and looked to him. "I'm too scared" she said. "Last time I tried to sleep, A souldier killed my horse and tried..tried to have his way with me." she shrugged "Paranoia.." She pulled out a piece of beef jerky and nibbled on it. She slid him her backpack "help yourself". Willow went to the sleeping Cali and gave her the only blanket she had. She looked to the other one asleep, wishing she'd have something for him to sleep with. Sighing she took her spot back. She wanted to ask questions but right now wasn't the time. " She heals.." she pointed to the sleeping Cali. "I was cut up really bad..everywhere. " there was blood on her clothes but no cuts. "I don't know about the other one..and I don't know about me. All I know is that they've been following me.." ... " ....Because I can't do this alone..."

Dante examined Cali. If she could heal people, then she'll definitely be useful in his mission. He shifted his attention back to Willow. "Souldiers usually capture anyone who isn't like them but they give up if the chase becomes too much of a hassle. Why would they try so hard to capture you?"
Dante shrugged off his jacket and placed it on Willow's shoulders to keep her warm. He stood near the windows, keeping lookout with his binoculars. "Sleep. You'll need your strength if we're gonna live through this hell."

"Lord give me the strength to defeat the darkness.."... The warmth of Dante's jacket instantly relaxed her. Even though her mind craved for answers her body craved rest. She touched the cross around her neck ."they called me the pure one" she said before she yawned. She looked to Dante . He seemed good at heart. Maybe thats why he could control the evil power? Or was the power a gift? She hummed a little as if to say something. She shifted to her knees and prayed to herself quietly before laying down, curled up to his jacket. "Dante...?" she went to ask another question. But she failed to actually ask it. "Your jackets..warm.." her eyes shut and she was fast asleep. ... " ....Because I can't do this alone..."

"Hm?" Dante turned to answer but she was already asleep. "Did she say she was ...the pure one?" At the mention of the word, a flashback hit Dante and he grasped his head as he watched the events in his mind...
"What are we looking for?" Dante asked. He was wearing the souldier's uniform. It seemed like he was in charge of a souldier squad. "We are to look for the pure ones and bring them to Wrath, captain," said one of his cadets. "The pure ones are a danger to us and our master, Wrath. They can strengthen the humans and their abilities. They must be captured and converted to our side."
Dante gasped as he came back to reality. "Pure ones..." Dante was once a souldier squad captain but was able to bend the sin to his will, granting him power and tunring him back into a human. Memories of when he was a souldier are but a blurr to him but they become clearer and cleared with each passing day.

Throughout the world Tomha had special spies strategically placed to keep a close eye on the other sins. Undead rats and birds served as his secret eyes and ears. His constant use of Necromancy allows him to make good use of almost anything dead. Having these spies helped serve Tomha by letting him being ahead of the other sins. Especially for his secret project that even the other sins have no clue about.
Because there were so many spies in so many places though Tomha cannot discover every single activity like a machine. The actions of Dante and the others are currently left unwatched as the one who watches was looking elsewhere.

((Sorry...well, I'm back. For the moment, though; just dropped by to post this one.))
Svend kept tossing and turning. Even if he felt so tired, he couldn't sleep. Giving up the effort of falling asleep, he squatted and hugged his knees.
He surveyed the surroundings: dark, high up, and seemed to have a perfect bird's eye view of below. It was...perfect, in it's own way. The girls were asleep, and the man with the flaming hand was standing watch.
He went up and went to his direction. "Hey," he mumbled, squatting down again. "You okay there?"

"I'm fine. Go back to sleep," Dante instructed. He was used to sleepless nights, even before the end of the world came. Dante used to work as a guard to local gang headquarters, keeping a close watch throughout the night. "You'll need your strength. We'll be scouting this city for the Stone tomorrow and you can bet we'll find some souldiers too."
