Ch. 19: Cats and Dogs
In the woods, Amity swung Rebellion at a group of Hell Lust.
Earth demons different from the Hell Prides Amity had fought before. Hell Lusts are grey, humanoid demons that bear a certain resemblance to court jesters due to their clothing. They always red, distinctive jester-like outfits and carry enormous scythes as their main weapons.
"These things are annoying!" Amity said, very irritated by this.
'You should've seen what they did to my shop several years ago!' Rebellion said.
Amity didn't know what his shop could've been like but she could assume it was a respectable business. (Oh how wrong she is.)
She swung the sword and cut one in half.
Another jumped at Amity from behind, making her move Rebellion to protect her back as she draw a spell circle.
"Abomination, rise!" Amity said, summoning a stronger and more solid looking abomination.
Almost like a purple, stone golem.
'Not bad.' Rebellion said, impressed by this.
'Thanks but I'm surprised it came out like this.' Amity thought before refocusing on the fight.
"Abomination, attack!" Amity shouted, pointing to the Hell Lusts.
"ROOOOAH!" The abomination roar as its arms slammed into the earth, cracking the ground as the Lusts jumped into air.
One swung its blade at the abomination, but the golem blocked and smashed the demon into the ground. Killing it.
'Amazing.' Amity thought, smiling at her new creation.
'Don't let your guard down! There's more Lusts left!' Rebellion said to her.
"Not for long." Amity said.
Amity drew another spell circle and coated Rebellion in magenta flames as she turned to the other Hell Lusts.
"Time to burn." She said as she rushed at them with a wide slash, killing three of them in one attack while the rest backed away!
'Nice one, baby!' Rebellion said.
'Thanks but don't call me baby!' Amity thought as she blocked an attack, moving back as a Hell Lust tried to attack her.
Only for Amity to jump over and slash through the entire body.
"... I didn't know I could do that." Amity said in surprise.
'That's my power but you'll get used to it. Keep going!' Rebellion said to her.
'Got it.' Amity thought.
With more flaming slashed and working with her Abomination Golem, Amity managed to make quick work of remaining Hell Lusts.
"There." Amity said as she put the Rebellion on her shoulder.
The Abomination Golem screamed in victory before slamming its fists into the ground.
'I should probably dispel that.' Amity thought before snapping her fingers, making the Abomination Golem melt into a puddle of purple sludge.
'Huh. Reminds me of my old doppelganger ability.' Rebellion said.
"Really?" Amity asked, turning the Rebellion into a bracelet and collecting the blood orbs.
'Oh yeah, it was one of my best abilities.' Rebellion said with a "sigh." 'I kind of miss it.'
'Maybe you could teach it to me someday.' Amity thought as she picked up the blood orbs and made her way to the cabin. 'Hopefully this is enough for the power I want.'
'Any demonic power is a good power.' Rebellion said to her.
"Yeah, but there's one I really want." Amity said, before she heard something... big.
'...Rebel, did you hear that?' Amity thought, freezing in place.
'Yes, I did. We're still not done, Amity.' Rebellion said as Amity summoned it again.
'Can you sense it and tell me what it is?' Amity thought, looking around for the new demon.
'I have a feeling I know what it is but I need to ask tha first. How do you feel about dogs?' Rebellion asked.
"More of a cat person." Amity said quickly.
'Oh. Then you might hate this monster.' Rebellion said as it could sense what exact type of monster it was.
A giant three headed dog came out of the woods. Each heading growling with sharp teeth, acidic slobber, glowing (purple, blue, and red) eyes, and each mouth spewing a different demon magic element. Such as lightning, ice, and fire.
"... ... ...What the hell is that thing?" Amity asked with a slightly horrified expression.
'That would be a Cerberus, a three headed dog demon with elemental magic. Humanity even has a legend about one being the gatekeeper for Hell.' Rebellion told Amity.
"And WHY is it here?" She asked.
'I, or Dante technically, MIGHT have killed two of its brethren.' Rebellion said.
'And since I have Dante's power now, this one thinks I'm him and wants revenge?' Amity thought.
'Most likely, yes.' Rebellion said simply.
'Great.' Amity thought, very clearly nervous.
'Buck up, we can do this!' Rebellion shouted in encouragement.
'Are you sure?' Amity thought.
'Totally! I'm ninety five percent sure!' Rebellion said as Cerberus stalked towards them.
"NINETY FIVE PERCENT?!" Amity shouted loudly!
"ROOOOOOOAAAH!" The Cerberus roared, exerting its flames/ice/lightning against the nearby tree.
'Better buckle up, kid!' Rebellion yelled, ready for combat.
Amity groaned silently as she prepares herself and prayed to the Titan that she would survive through this.
