Dominic and Arkham walk up to a large blue door with Dominic carrying Obito over his shoulder and sets him down while Arkham talks about Temen Ni Gru and it's importance for the hundredth time

Arkham: Soon, we will reach the lake of judgment. Temen-ni-gru will finally regain its full function and lead us into the Demon World

Arkham opens his book and starts tapping on the symbols on the door while he continues talking

Arkham: The world where Sparda's power has been sealed. And the one who will lift the incantation is you, his own son. It must be fate.

The room shakes as the locks on the door began to recede and the door opens. Arkham bows his head to Dominic and let's him go in first

Obito: Heh. Just like a little slave letting your master go first.

Arkham looks over to Obito and walks over to him. Obito glares at Arkham who kicks him in the face, knocking his goggles off.

Arkham: Quiet boy.

Obito spits out blood and looks at Arkham, telling him to make him shut up which prompts the man to raise his leg up to stomp him out but was stopped by Dominic putting his hand on Arkhams shoulder and looking at him with anger in his eyes which scares him and he puts his foot down

Dominic: He is not the one who needs to die..

Dominic walks through the doorway but stops and turns his head back to Arkham

Dominic: Does that woman bother you that much? Why didn't you kill her? Perhaps she's your daughter? Did some pesky "fatherly love" get in your way?

Arkham: How dare you talk to-!

Arkham was cut short when Dominic stabs the Yamato into his chest. The man drops his book at his feet with his blood dripping down onto the cover of it. Dominic fully turns to look at Arkham while Obito watches them talk in horror

Dominic: To further your study in the black arts, you sacrificed your loving wife.

Obito: W-what?

Dominic: That's right. This man is nothing but trash. Sacrificing the woman he bore a child with to become a devil. Knowing this, I thought you'd be of more use to me. But I was wrong!

Dominic pushes his sword deeper into Arkhams stomach making his weakly groan out in pain

Dominic: No wonder your attainment of power is incomplete.

Arkham looks up at Dominic with blood dripping from his mouth

Arkham: What about you? You're an incomplete being as well. You think that they will forgive you for what you've done today? That he will?

Arkham motions to Obito who was frozen with fear while the exchange was going on in front of him

Arkham: You mock me for sparing my daughters life..but what about him? You spare him...ugh..because of what? Some...semblance of friendship? Heh...I was right....being amongst them has changed you....but..it won't change you who are. Demon and human blood mingle through your veins. Though you take human form...all they'll see you as is a demon...!

Dominic: Shut up..

Dominic pulls his sword out of Arkham, throwing the blood off of it before sheathing his sword. Arkham hits the floor and lays there bleeding out

Dominic: Now that the final door is open, I have no use for you.

He goes over to Obito and reaches out to him and the young boy flinches as his hand moves towards him. Dominic picks up his teammate and grabs his goggles before walking through the door, leaving the body of Arkham on the floor

Timeskip—

Dante and team RWBY all walk up to the hallway where Arkhams body was laid out on the floor. Ruby gasps and goes to look at the man while everyone else looks down at him. Dante leans his head to the side, dodging a bullet shot by Lady who appeared behind the group

Dante: Well that was quick.

Lady walks up pointing a gun at Dante and she looks down at the body of her father

Lady: That man....did you kill him?

Weiss: What? No we just got here!

Lady: Quiet!

Lady points a gun at Weiss but gets a gun pointed at the back of her head by Blake who snuck up behind her

Blake: Don't even try it.

Lady grunts and ducks under Blake's arm and kicks her in the face, sending her into the wall and cartwheeling away from the two and shooting at Dante who meets every single bullet shot at him with Ebony and Ivory

Lady: He was obsessed with becoming the Devil!

She rushes Dante and fights him hand to hand using her guns. Bullets fly out and ricochet around the room making the girls duck for cover with Yang covering Ruby with her body while Dante laughs and treats the fight as a dance

Lady: So much so, he even killed his own wife!

Blake gets up and shakes her concussion off before going over to help Dante and the two fight Lady two on one

Lady: For that, he butchered innocent people too.

Lady catches Blake's fist while throwing her gun forward at Dante who catches her arm and laughs

Lady: He's the most vile kind of creature!

She pulls Blake forward and tries to toss her aside but Blake turns, using her momentum to spin around Lady's body and throw her back. Lady shoots at the two making them jump out of the way of her bullets.

Dante looks at his coat and groans as it was now full of bullet holes from Lady who gets up and rushes at Dante who jumps over her and shoots the bullets shot at him while Blake runs over to help him

Lady turns and points her guns at Blake and Dante while panting

Lady: To top it off, this filthy scum is my father!

She motions over to Arkham making Blake lower her weapon seeing the pain in Lady's eyes

Dante: Well, we have something in common. I have a dysfunctional family too.

Lady: And what would you know about family?!

Lady points her gun at Dante in anger

Lady: You're a demon! This is my father....my family! This was all supposed to end by my hand!

Realizing it was useless talking to him, she lowers her gun and looks at her fathers body

Blake: I'm sorry..

Lady: How could you be? You didn't know him like I did...

Dante: You're not gonna shoot? Well, that's a switch.

Lady: What's the point? I don't care anymore....

Dante puts away his guns and begins to walk away and starts to questions the ideals of a family before continuing on

Dante: Family, huh?

Yang goes over to comfort Lady but stops herself and just moves on with the rest of her team and Dante

Elsewhere, Sapphire gasps awake and looks around before weakly getting up to his feet. He looks at his broken weapon in his hand and closes his eyes before walking across the bridge he was on. He spots an arrow carved into the floor and follows it, limping slightly as he did so

Sometime later, Arkham wakes up and gasps asking where he was, startling Lady

Arkham: Where am I? It's dark, I can't see anything...

Lady: You're still alive I see?

Arkham turns his head to his daughters voice and calls out to her

Arkham: Mary..? Is that you? What's happening? Where is your mother?

Lady pulls the hammer back on the gun she was holding at her father

Lady: My mother? You killed her, remember?

She was starting to get confused. Why was he asking about her mother when he was the one who killed her? Why did he seem so...different?

Arkham: Yes....That's right. I killed her, with my own hands.

Arkham begins to sob shocking Lady as she watches him

Arkham: What horrible thing have I done? I was too weak. I succumbed to his influence!

Lady: You mean, you were possessed?

Arkham was about to answer when he began to choke on his own blood. Lady drops her gun and goes to her father's aid.

Lady: Father?

She takes his hand into hers as the door at the end of the hallway opens and Sapphire walks through panting and he sees the two at the end of the hallway. Arkham coughs and turns his head to his daughter and looks at her

Arkham: Yes, I was manipulated. Manipulated by a Devil, named Dominic..!

Lady: Dominic?

Sapphire: What..?

Lady turns when she hears Sapphire's voice but goes back to her father who tells her about Dominic's plan

Arkham: He's attempting to bring the demon world back to this modern day. *cough* A world that Sparda once sealed off.

Lady: Sparda? I thought he was a myth!

Sapphire: No, he was real. Dominic what are you trying to do?

Arkham: If the demons return, this world will be thrown into chaos...

He coughs more blood on himself and looks at his daughter

Arkham: S-stop him...Stop Dominic!

Tears began to fall from Lady's eyes as Arkham reaches a hand out to touch her face

Lady: M-me?

Arkham: You're such a sweet child, just like your mother...

Arkham reaches out towards the light at the ceiling before his hand falls to his chest and he takes his final breath

Lady: Father! FATHER!

Lady sobs and Sapphire goes to comfort her and she jumps into his arms and sobs in his chest. She then reaches down and grabs her fathers book, placing it on his chest with his arms crossed over it.

She looks up and her resolve has been changed into one goal, Dominic.

Lady: Dominic!

The heartbroken Lady grabs her weapons and continues through the door in front of her. Sapphire looks down at Arkhams body and gives it a nod before following behind Lady

Dante and team RWBY enter a room where a strange orb sits on a pedestal and he goes out to grab it

Dante: Okay mystical artifact that I need to open the door, come to papa!

The room begins to shake and a deep voice begins to shout a name as the room begins to shake with debris falling down from the ceiling

SPARDA! SPARDA!!

Dante punches one of the rocks about to fall on him and sees as a giant one eyed demon with wings drops down from the hole in the ceiling and roars at him

Demon: RRRRAAAAAHH!!

Dante: Aww, you poor thing! Didn't your mother ever teach you how to use a door?

Weiss: Dante I don't think taunting the giant monster is such a good idea!

Yang: Hey cyclops! Do you know how to get the heck out of here?!

The demon sniffs the air and walks towards the group with each footstep shaking the room

Demon: This odor, I know it!

Dante sniffs himself and groans

Dante: Give me a break! Tell ya what, next time I'll try and wear some cologne, okay?

Demon: It's the stench of betrayal, the odor of that accursed Sparda! I, Beowulf, will annihilate every last blood relation of Sparda!!

Beowulf roars and goes to swipe his claws at Dante but the half demon jumps away from him and laughs at his weak attempt at killing him

Dante: Hahaha! A son cleaning up his dad's mess, huh? Where've I heard this story before? You girls ready?

The girls nod and take out their weapons with Dante and all shoot at the demon and jumps out of the way of the bullets and roars as his wings sprout open and he swings his fists wildly making the group of teens scatter

Beowulf roars and charges at Dante who blocks a punch with Rebellion and he pushes Dante to the wall, trying to crush him, but Blake and Weiss attack Beowulf with their Checkmate combination attack and attack his legs making the towering demon fall to his knees in pain

Dante switches to Nevan and plays a riff that sends Beowulf away

Ruby: Dante! Let's go!!

Ruby holds out her hand for Dante and he takes it and the two speed off in a hurricane of rose petals that impact Beowulf and rise up into the air. The two red clad friends both hold their weapons high above their heads and slam them on his neck, cutting deep into his flesh but not decapitating him

Yang shouts as she runs up to Beowulf and delivers a fiery uppercut to his jaw that knocks out one of his sharp fangs and he falls to the ground dazed

Dante: Yeah! Now that's what I'm talking about!

Beowulf stirs awake and roars as his wings open up and his feathers light up and blind everyone in the room. He uses this chance to run at Dante and throw a hard punch that makes contact with Dante but it doesn't hurt him or even push him back

Beowulf: What?!

Dante's body begins to glow red as he opens his eyes and smirks at the confused demon

Dante: Royal Guard!

Dante shouts and slams his fist on the ground, sending a wave of red energy that hits Beowulf and launches him into the air. The half demon roars as his body shifts into its devil form and he flies up to Beowulf and attacks him with Rebellion before he switches to Cerberus, then Agni&Rudra, until he finishes him off with using Nevan to create a tornado of lightning bats that strike Beowulf and he hits the ground smoking and full of scratch marks

He roars at the downed demon in triumph and his devil form goes out and he looks at his hands panting

Dante: Whoa...freaky. Huh?

Beowulf throws a punch at Dante who tosses Rebellion at him but it only manages to cut his one good eye as Dante was crushed into the floor by Beowulfs fist

Blake: DANTE!!

Beowulf recoils in pain and swings his fist around angrily

Beowulf: The odious one whose blood pumps the blood of Sparda! Though my sight is gone, I remember your scent! I shall hunt you down through eternity if I must, until I did this planet of your plum smell!

Dante groans and frees himself from the floor and shakes his head while everyone watches as Beowulf makes his escape through the hole in the ceiling

Dante:*sigh* Why do I have to take the heat for my father? Come on, man! Cut me some slack!

Dante walks over to the strange orb whole team RWBY talks with Blake about her recent outburst

Yang: So Blake, you're getting awfully defensive when Dante gets hurt. You wanna talk about it~?

Yang gets a smug grin on her face and winks at her teammate who turns her head away from Yang

Blake: I-I'm just worried about him! That's all!

Weiss: Yeah right! "Dante! Oh Dante!" How many times has he been stabbed and lived? Not to mention he's half demon so he should live through all things that would kill a normal person!

Blake: I'm just worried about him okay!

Ruby: How come? Is it cause you loooove him~?

The girls laugh at their blushing friend while Dante picks up the orb and began to feel weak. He felt sickly as he held the orb in his hand and he fell to his knees

Yang: Dante!

The shrill laughter of Jester rang out in the room and he appeared from behind the girls and tip toed his way over to Dante still laughing

Jester: Even the Devil Boy is no match for it! Hahahaha!!

Once Jester got close enough, Dante pulled him down and shoved Ebony into his big nose while he felt weaker and weaker as time went on with him holding the orb

Jester: Whoa. Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa! You're not gonna shoot me, are you? If you do, I'll die, you know.

Dante:*panting* If that's what it takes to shut you up. Urgh! It bugs the crap out of me when someone talks more than I do.

Jester: D-don't act to irrationally, my boy. I've got a doozy of a story for you, but if you snuff out my voice like that, I won't be able to tell it, now will I?

Dante growls and tosses Jester away who gets up and dusts himself off

Jester: I thought I was a goner for sure~

Team RWBY all guard themselves from the odd looking demon as he walks over to Dante

Jester: You saw it too, didn't you? That huge tower jutting out of the ground? That thick shaft that causes women to shudder~

Weiss: Ew! How vulgar!

Ruby: What does he mean by shaft?

Yang:*covers Ruby's ears* Let's just not listen to what their weirdo has to say

Jester: It's also a tunnel—! Linking the demonic domain to the human world. And of course, your brother, Dominic is the one who controls it by using your mommy's amulet.

Dante: Amulet?

Jester:*sing-song* He's headed to the control room in the basement~ If you don't hop down there quick like a bunny, he'll open the gate to hell!!

Ruby: Dominic would never do that!!

Jester turns to Ruby and dashes in front of her and lifts her chin up with his rod and looks at her silver eyes

Jester: Nice eyes kid~ But they are blind to your friends true motives! AAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!!

Yang punches Jester in the chest and he was sent back towards Dante groaning in pain

Jester:*winded* Like a firecracker!

Dante:*panting* Just get to the point!

Jester hops up and dusts himself off

Jester: Oh did I forget to mention one teeny widdle item~? Oh yes! That gizmo there is actually the KEY to move forward. But the tricky thing is, it sucks the souls of those who hold it. So you better hurry~

Jester laughs and moon walks around the room laughing annoying Dante and starting to annoy team RWBY too

Weiss: This buffoon is getting on my nerves!

Dante weakly points Ebony at Jester who hops from left to right trying to make Dante miss his shot

Jester: But, in return for your soul, it'll give you power! Marvelous isn't it? Just let your young spirit drive you and go for it!

Jester dodges a few bullets shot from behind him by Blake before jumping on a hook and ascending towards the top of the room while laughing

Dante:*panting* Wish you would have told me that in the first place, ya big mouthed moron!

Yang: What now?

Weiss: He just told us the answer!

Blake: But it's not a good one. Dante.

Blake walks up to the half demon and puts a hand under the one that was holding the orb and looks into his eyes

Blake: I'll help...

Dante:*pants* No Blake...it's fine...I got this.

Dante walks back from Blake and winks at her before transforming into his demon form, completely nullifying the soul sucking powers of that orb

Weiss: What now?

DT Dante: Well if I'm a betting man, I'd say I have to run all the way back to that bridge where I kicked that blue orb into that mouth earlier. I saw another one so by process of elimination, that's where we have to go.

Yang: But how are we supposed to get there when there's about a hundred demons in between here and there?

Dante thinks to himself as he starts to float off the ground while doing so. An idea pops inside of his mind and he snaps his fingers which create a tiny explosion when he does so

DT Dante: Get on my back!

Weiss: What?!

DT Dante: Oh come on! It's either I carry you guys or you all wait while I do all the work, again!

Weiss:*sigh* Fine! But how are we all supposed to fit on you? Do we draw straws to see who gets to sit on your back and be carried by you?

Yang: I call being carried!!

Blake: I- Yang!

Yang: What? It's it not weird is it? He's just carrying me in his big strong arms~

DT Dante: Actually arm. I can carry one of you on each arm.

Blake: Then where will Ruby be?

Ruby dashes up Dante and sits on his shoulders and flexes her arms

Ruby: The great Ruby and her noble steed are here to save the day!! HYAH! Dante. Dante I said "HYAH". You're supposed to go "neigh"!

Weiss:*sigh* Let's just get this over with...

Weiss jumps on Dante's back and locks her arms and legs around him

Weiss: Why are your scales warm? Are you some reptile in this form? Or are you an amphibian?

DT Dante: Hey I just learned how to do this today! Cut me some slack, okay?

Weiss: Whatever. By the way, can you move your wings out of the way please?

Yang sits on one of Dante's arms and yawns, wrapping her arms around his neck while smirking, trying to get Blake angry but she just sits on Dante's arms and wraps hers around his neck and glares at Yang who whistles

DT Dante: Okay! Passengers please keep your arms and legs inside of the Dante at all times until he has come to a complete stop and we hope you enjoy the ride~

Yang: I know I will~

Dante runs as fast a speeding bullet out of the room and through the corridors dodging any demon that was in his way. He runs up a wall to escape some demons while Ruby and Yang cheer for him to go faster but Weiss shouts at him to not do so while looking a little green in the face.

They soon make it out of the area and find themselves on a bridge where Dante stops and let's all the girls off while he stretches his limbs

Ruby: I wanna go again!!

DT Dante: We hope you all had fun riding our Dante and don't forget to pick up a commemorative photo of your time riding him to remember your stay at Temen Ni Gru. The scariest place on Remnant. Have fun!

Weiss runs over to the edge of the bridge and vomits over the side

Dante laughs but stops and begins to groan and holds his stomach in pain

Blake: Dante what's wrong?

DT Dante: Get back! I think...! I'm gonna...!

Dante's chest open up and burps out the ball he had and it flies into the statue on the other side of the room making the bridge disconnect and move to another bridge. Sighing, Dante returns to human form and spits out a loogie

Dante: Sorry about that. Blech. My mouth tastes like burnt chicken every time I transform back!

A set of groans were heard a ways away from the group as demons began to walk towards them. Dante smirks and reaches for Rebellion but stops when he feels the bridge they were on start to rumble

A bright blue light shines from the opposite end of the bridge and was closing in fast. Suddenly a horse carrying a carriage blasts through the demons and neighs

Dante: Heh, a chicken race with a horse? Alright!

Dante fixes his boots and runs at the horse ready to fight it. As he closes in on the horse, the ground began to give away and he and the horse fall into the depths below the bridge, landing in a gladiator area

Dante: First chicken, now gladiator.

The demonic horse neighs at Dante and stamps its hooves into the ground

Dante: This just keeps getting better and better! Too bad there's nobody here to enjoy the show!

Four voices from above were quickly coming down and Dante looks up to see team RWBY falling down towards the ground

Dante: One second please.

Dante runs at the hose and jumps up on its head, using it as footing for him to launch himself up and grab the girls one by one with the help from using Cerberus like a lasso

Dante: Woohohohoo!!

Dante lands in the stands of the arena and sets the girls down before flipping into the fighting grounds of the arena and gives the girls a thumbs up

Dante: Now we have some spectators. Hope you don't get stage fright!

The demon horse neighs and charges at Dante who rolls to the side. A hatch at the top of the carriage the horse was pulling opened up and artillery fire began shooting out of it

Dante: Oh shit!!

Dante runs around the arena dodging missiles while also making sure the horse doesn't run him over. The horse begins teleporting around the room making Dante have to be quicker on his feet while team RWBY shouts where the horse was

Ruby: It's to your left!! No your other left!! That's your right!

Weiss: Jump! Do a barrel roll!

Yang: Just punch it!!

Blake: You have to try to outsmart it Dante! It's just an animal!

Dante: Oh my god can you girls stop backseat fighting?!

Dante pulls out Agni&Rudra and slices the legs of the horse making it topple over which gives Dante the chance to attack it with a flurry of hits with the scimitar before it suddenly disappeared and reappeared behind Dante

Weiss: Look out!

Dante runs away from the horse and summons a red glyph in front of him that he hops on and uses it to jump higher onto the horses back and starts attacking it while riding it

Dante: YEEEEEEHAAAAWWW!!!

Weiss: He's enjoying this way too much...

Blake: Yeah...though..it is fun to watch.

Team RWBY follows the horse with Dante still riding it around and around the arena until he throws him off

Dante:*lands* Ha! El Torro! Come on!

Weiss: It's not a bull!

Dante: Le Fuck You!

The heiress pouts and flips off Dante who jumps over the horse and slams Rebellion on its head, damaging it greatly and causing it to crash into the wall and defeating it

Dante walks up to the horse who looks at Dante and closes its eyes waiting for it to die by his hand but it opens them again in shock from Dante petting it softly

Dante: Great race. Maybe next time you'll win.

The horses breathing became calm and it slowly shut its eyes, turning into a ball of light that gets absorbed into Dante's body

He begins to walk back towards the cheers of his friends and basks in the glory, not noticing that a few pieces of the bridge became loose and were about to fall on him

Yang: Look out!!

Dante looks up and time froze everything but himself. He smiles and pokes the big rock that was about to crush him and walks away, pushing another rock out of his path

Dante: My paper beats your rock.

Time resumes and the rubble falls and the girls look in shock that Dante was out of harms way in the blink of an eye

Dante: New powers y'all!

Dante disappears and reappears besides the girls and waves at them

Dante:*dumb laugh* Stopping time is cool~

Weiss: Wait, stop time? That's impossible!

Dante: Oh really?

Dante appears around multiple parts of the room doing goofy poses for the girls while also showing off to them his new abilities

Blake:*giggles*

Dante: Wooh! Alright ladies let's get a move on!

Weiss: Wait!

Dante: Oh, looks like we have a question. Ask away Ice Queen!

Weiss: How did you use a glyph? I've never seen anyone but a Schnee use them.

Dante: Well maybe I got a little Schnee in me. Or your family has a little Sparda in them~ Boop!

Dante boops Weiss on the nose and continues his way to find Dominic

Weiss:*rubbing her nose* As if I'd be related to you. Ugh makes me sick just thinking about it!

Blake: Well you do look alike.

Weiss: We do not!

Yang: White hair, blue eyes. If you think about it, it makes sense.

Weiss: You're being ridiculous!

Ruby: I think it's cute! Weiss Sparda! Has a nice ring to it.

Weiss:*gags* I think I'm gonna vomit again!

Team RWBY joins Dante while they laugh at the thought that Weiss could be related to Dante. Little did they know Sparda was a lady killer in his hay day...you never know~

Dominic walks into a room with Obito over his shoulder

Obito: Can you get me go? I'm not a threat to you.

Dominic: No.

Obito: Well could you at least untie my legs so I don't have to be carried around?!

Dominic: No.

The room began to shake and the low growling voice of Beowulf sounded out from behind Dominic who sets Obito down and turns around to face the demon

Beowulf: I told you that I remembered your rancid scent! No matter where you run to, you can never hide from me!

Dominic tilts his head to the side and jumps over Beowulf as he was about to throw a punch and lands on top of his head with Yamato drawn

Beowulf: Y-You are not the one I faced before...But this smell...There are two of them!

Click

Beowulf: That excrement Sparda had two sons..!

Beowulfs head began to fall apart when Dominic sheathed Yamato and jumps off his corpse

Obito: Whoa...

Dominic extends his hand out to the corpse and pulls a ball of light from it and it flies into his hands to which he absorbs the power from the slain demon and gains a new weapon. Gauntlets and greaves that Dominic inspects before testing out on the corpse by speeding towards it in the blink of an eye and uppercutting it into the air and appearing above it and performing a summersault in the air before cutting it in half by bringing his foot down on it and landing as the corpse lands behind him

Dominic: Hmph. Too easy.

Obito: Wow...that was...wow.

Dominic:*bows* You're too kind.

Obito: Yeah...

Obito looks away as he was trying to cut himself free from his bindings with a kunai that he had hidden

Obito: Kind...

Dominic unequipped his new weapon and walked over to the center of the room where a small hole of light was in the floor. He takes out both his and Dante's amulets and they begin to emit a red aura and fly out of his hands and merge into one before descending into the hole at his feet. Dominic then kneels down and draws out Yamato before placing his hand in the blade

Obito: Wait!!

He stops and looks over at Obito who was crawling over to him

Obito: You don't have to do this! If you stop now we can just go home! You don't have to be the bad guy Dom! I know you're hurting but this isn't the way to make it go away!

Dominic: You don't understand...it's too late for me..

Dominic slices open his hand, drawing blood and let's it fall into the hole and stands up waiting for what he's worked so long for to finally come into fruition

Dominic: .......

Obito: Is...is something supposed to happen?

Dominic: There...what? No. This isn't supposed to happen! Why?! Why isn't this working?! Is there something missing? Must more unnecessary blood be shed?

Yet again you failed to meet my expectations my student.

Dominic turns around and sees Bludgeon in the room with his arms crossed

Dominic: M-master!

Obito: Master?

Bludgeon: You lost the right to call me that when you failed me so miserably.

Dominic: I was a child!

Bludgeon: A child with power! And even now you waste it doing...this!

Dominic: Why are you here...?

Bludgeon: I came to see what all the commotion was about. To think I would find you here and being the cause of all this excitement! Ah, it makes my blood rush!

Dominic takes a step back from his master and his hand slowly goes to his sword

Bludgeon: Hm? Are you going to fight me boy?

Dominic: You...are not welcome here! Leave.

Bludgeon smirked and flicked his sword which made Dominic flinch and this causes Bludgeon to laugh at his fear

Bludgeon: How pathetic! No matter how much time had passed, you'll still be the same scared little boy who couldn't kill the succubus that made you her bitch. Hahahaha!!

Bludgeon's laughter was cut off by a kunai thrown past his face and he turns around to see Obito free from his bindings

Obito: Don't talk about my friend like that..

Bludgeon: Friend? This is who you surround yourself with? A small child with a weak aura? Ha! I didn't think you could disappoint me even more!

Obito: Don't listen to him Dominic!

Dominic: Obito....stay out of this. This clown has insulted me for the last time.

Dominic puts a hand on his sword with Bludgeon doing the same and the two stood there in a standoff until their thumbs flicked up their sword and they appeared in the middle of the room clashing swords with one another

Bludgeon: Show me how far you've grown after all these years boy!

Dominic: My name...is Dominic!!

Dominic swings his sword at Bludgeon who backs off and opens his jaw and fires a ball of purple energy at Dominic who promptly cuts it in half and the two halves impact the wall behind him

Bludgeon: I only acknowledge the strong while the weaklings like you and this boy here are nothing but dirt for me to step over!

Dominic shouts and goes for another attack with him spinning in the air and slashing diagonally at Bludgeon who parry's it and grabs his former student by the throat and he headbutts him before throwing him away

Obito: Dom!!

Dominic:*grunt* Stay out of this!

Bludgeon: By all means, interfere! If you are ready to die to help this pathetic weakling!

Obito reluctantly stays where he was and watches Dominic and Bludgeon fight around the entire room they were in with both fighting using only their swords. At various points, Obito could catch the two locking blades and looking at each other and then going back to disappearing from sight until they clashed swords again

Bludgeon: You're not fighting at your best boy! What's wrong? Tired already?!

Bludgeon looks at Dominic as he flies in with Yamato raised above his head and he blasts him with lasers that fire from his eyes which hit Dominic in the chest and send him to the floor

Bludgeon: This was...amusing at best. But now it's time to die.

Bludgeon steps on Dominic's chest and raises his sword above his head about to swing it onto Dominic and end his life but three glowing kunai were thrown and embedded in his armor to which they exploded, sending the demon samurai away from Dominic

Obito: I warned you. Don't talk about my friend like that.

Dominic:*cough* You fool! Why did you help me?!

Obito: Because regardless of the reason why you're doing this, you're still my friend.

Obito goes over and helps Dominic up while smiling at his friend

Bludgeon: You are going to regret doing that boy..!

Obito: Yeah? Prove it!

Obito takes out two kunai from his back and gets ready to fight Bludgeon with Dominic getting in a fighting stance with his teammate

Bludgeon smirks and makes his aura spike up with the two doing the same and the three rush at each other fighting in a two on one fight with Bludgeon easily keeping up with the two teammates

Bludgeon: Hahahaha!! Yes! Fight me more!

Bludgeon jumps back and sheathes his sword. He then brings his hands back, creating a ball of energy and lunging forward and spinning in the air towards the two who jump out of the way of his attack

Obito: That was close!

Dominic: Keep quiet and fight!!

Dominic raised Yamato to the air and slams it down sending a wave of energy at Bludgeon who dodges it to the side but that's what Dominic had wanted and smirks as Obito appears in front of Bludgeon and throws a volley of kunai at him

Bludgeon: How predictable!

Bludgeon begins to glow bright purple and his body moves so fast that his after images have trouble keeping up with his body and the samurai appears behind Dominic and slices him across the back making the half demon scream in pain

Dominic: AAAAHH!!

Bludgeon: Ha! What's wrong? Don't remember how to Void Dash? Did I waste my time teaching you my skills?

Dominic's body began to glow as well and he sped over next to Obito and stood up from the ground

Dominic: No. I just prefer my own techniques over yours!

Dominic pushes his hand forward and multiple swords were summoned around him which gave Obito an idea and the shinobi puts a kunai in between each of his fingers and channels his aura through them making the kunai glow bright orange

The two teammates launch their combined attack at Bludgeon who marvels at the sight but quickly draws his sword and cuts down every kunai and sword before rushing to them and slicing at Dominic who block with his own sword

Bludgeon: A neat trick! But a trick nonetheless!

Dominic:*grunting* Oh...that wasn't the trick!

Obito: This is!!

Dominic teleports away and Obito, who was behind him, blows out a wave of flames from his mouth that consumes Bludgeon

Obito: How's that for a weakling?!

The sound of Bludgeons footsteps startled Obito and he watched as the samurai walked out of the flames with no signs of damage on his armor

Bludgeon: Is that all?

Obito growls and lifts up his goggles, closing his eyes and focusing his energy before opening them and showing those red eyes he had gotten after watching Snake die

Bludgeon: It can't be..! An Uchiha! Marvelous.

Obito: I take it you know what these eyes mean?

Bludgeon: Yes. The Sharingan. Those red eyes signal death to whoever sees them. Hahaha! To think they belong to such a weak boy! Ah! You have acquired quite a specimen boy. Were you planning on taking them out of his head and giving them to yourself?

Dominic: I'm nothing like you Bludgeon! Killing without reason just to acquire power is not my way!

Bludgeon: Ahahahaha!! Killing to gain power is the only reason to live! The weak grovel at our feet while we the strong dispense death upon them!

Obito: We're not gonna let someone like you run wild in this world! You're not welcome here Bludgeon.

Bludgeon: You're going to make me leave? Ohohoho~ Then come here and make me boy.

The duo rushes at Bludgeon and they fight at high speeds around the room. Even though he was outmatched in every way, Obito could still see where Bludgeon was thanks to his Sharingan as he calls it

Obito jumps back and pulls out a kunai, tying it to a wire and puts another in his mouth before rushing back into the fight

Obito:~I'm not gonna sit by and watch my friends fight while they protect me! How can someone become the greatest Huntsman if they can't even protect those they care about?!~

Obito's aura begins to flow through his weapon and he flings it at Bludgeon who dodges it but not in time as it scratches his armor and the cut began to glow until it exploded and disoriented the demon which gave them the chance to slice up Bludgeon before Dominic punches him in the gut and sends his ex-master flying across the room and into the wall

Bludgeon growls and dashes at Obito and brings his sword out to slice the boy in half but his sword was dodged by him before it could even be drawn out

Obito:~ I....I can see his movements before he makes them. Is this the power my eyes hold?~

Dominic slams Yamato into Bludgeon who recoils from the blow as blood comes out of his mouth and more pain shots up into him as Obito stabbed the kunai he had in his mouth into Bludgeon's side

Dominic: You're finished..!

Obito: This ends now!

Bludgeon:*smirk* Oh..?

Bludgeon raised his hand into the air and formed a ball of energy into his palm that he crushed which caused his hand to start glowing purple. Dominic's eyes widened upon seeing this and he grabs Obito and tosses him away as Blundgon slams his fist onto the ground and the impact creates a bright explosion that sent dust and debris everywhere

Obito:*cough* Dom!! *cough* Dominic!!

The dust begins to clear and Obito gasps upon seeing Dominic on the floor with Bludgeon having his sword raised above his head, ready to deal the finishing blow

Bludgeon: How pathetic. Well...I guess it isn't entirely your fault.

Dominic weakly opens his eyes and looks at Bludgeon

Bludgeon: You're just human~

Bludgeon stabs his sword down onto Dominic and blood leaks from his blade only that it didn't belong to Dominic

Dominic: Obito! You—

Obito coughs up blood as Bludgeons sword was pierced through his chest

Obito: It's like you....said...the great heroes...are all dead....

Bludgeon: What a waste of an effort!

Bludgeon lifts Obito up with his sword and tosses his body away and Dominic watches in horror as Obito laid on the floor unmoving

Dante and team RWBY walks through a long corridor towards the next area when Ruby stops and clutches her chest and leans against the wall

Yang: Ruby, what's wrong?

Ruby: I...I don't know...my chest..it feels like...something's wrong.

Dominic was on his knees while Bludgeon walks up to him, sword in hand

Bludgeon: Shedding tears for a weakling like that? How pathetically human!

Bludgeon raises his sword and brings it down on Dominic only for it to be caught by him and Bludgeon sees Dominic get up and look at him with eyes filled with not only tears, but of hate.

Dominic pulls his fist back and delivers an uppercut that sends Bludgeon flying back, landing with a heavy thud. He regains in composure in time to dodge Dominic coming down with his sword

Bludgeon: Well, it looks like it's just you and me now boy.

Dominic lunges at Bludgeon and hits him in the face with his knee and lands behind his master who spits out a tooth before drawing his sword and slicing a wave of energy with Dominic doing the same and the two attacks collide creating a small cloud of dust

Bludgeon: Hahahaha! And here I thought you were just going to sit back and let me kill you. Well I must say this is a welcomed change to you my old student. Yes this reminds me so much of the we spent days training together.

Dominic growls and looks at his shaking hand, clutching it into a fist and showing his teeth that had now sharpened into fangs. Obito's words rang out in his mind, still fresh and playing on repeat in his head

It's like you....said...the great heroes...are all dead....

Dominic shouts and holds his head as his body begins to glow bright blue. Bludgeon uses this opportunity to throw a punch at Dominic but it was caught by his pupil and he felt the bones in his hand shatter as Dominic clenched his grip on it

The demonic samurai backs away and holds his hand in pain while Dominic's aura began to spike higher and higher

Bludgeon: S-so all I had to do was to kill your friend and you start trying?! I..wonder what'll happen if I go and kill all of your friends! I already spared one life today, so today I will take four more lives!

Dominic: You...heartless...bastard!!

Bludgeon: Hm?

Dominic's hands shook as lightning courses through his body with his aura growing larger and larger

Dominic: How...how dare you? He was innocent...good! A pure soul who saw the world through the lens of good!

Bludgeon: Hahahaha!! So then not only did he live as a fool, but he died as a fool!

Something inside of Dominic snapped when he heard those words. The embers of his humanity suddenly came to life inside of his soul and burned brightly as the memories of he and his team, along with the friends he's made while at Beacon, began to flood his mind. He now understood why his friend leapt in front of him and sacrificed himself to save him: Because he cared for him. It's the same reason why the others were there too. Upon realizing this, Dominic exploded and bellows out a roar akin to a wolf triumphantly howling at the moon. The light of his humanity now free and in synch with the darkness of his demonic power.

Bludgeons eyes widened as he felt the power coming from his student and he felt his heart sink to the floor as he saw a pair of glowing red eyes from inside of the smoke.

Bludgeon: Th-those...eyes! You have...the same eyes...as him!

The image of Sparda flashed inside of Bludgeons mind and he finally realized why even as a child, Dominic had so much hidden power inside of him. It's because he and Dante are sons of one of the most powerful demons to have ever existed. The Dark Knight Sparda

Like lightning, Dominic appeared in front of Bludgeon and the samurai could only think to throw a punch before he was hit in the face by a devastating right hook from Dominic that had him falling to the floor but the son of Sparda was not done with him yet

DT Dominic: I am no longer your student Bludgeon. For I am master to myself now. I decide my own fate. And I choose...to protect them from the likes of you!

Dominic punched Bludgeon away and ran up beside him as he flew and kept throwing punches at his face and body, keeping the demon airborne while kicking his ass around the room. He then grabs Bludgeon by the face and slams him into the floor and flings him over to a wall where he slides down it and was sat there in awe and in pain at what had just happened

DT Dominic: That day...after I promised her I would protect her kin, I would grow stronger no matter what. But now...now I'm not so sure that I should go through with my original plan. But this new plan...involves your death!

Bludgeon gets up on one knee while he holds his chest breathing heavily and smirks as a portal open under him

Bludgeon: This power of yours...I've faced it before. Grow strong my student...for one day I will return to test your power once again. Son of Sparda..

Bludgeon sinks into the portal and it closes behind him. Dominic let's put a sigh and returns to his human form

A groan grabs his attention and he looks to see Obito moving and he rushes over to help his friend

Dominic: Obito!

Obito:*cough* Is....is he..?

Dominic: He got away...but you're alive! That's all that matters! He means nothing if you're still here!

Obito: H-heh....are those tears I see?

Dominic: Shut up! You're gonna be okay! You're going back and you're gonna be with Ruby and you're gonna become the greatest Huntsman ever! They'll tell stories about your life to generations!

Obito: And....you'll be in them too...right?

Obito reaches out towards Dominic and he takes his hand into his

Obito: Hey....I want you to..*cough* to tell Ruby...that I love her...and that you're...you're her protector now...okay?

Dominic shakes his head but the image of Liquid flashes in his mind and he looks at the hand that he had cut open and he does it again, placing his hand over Obito's wound

Dominic: Tell her you love her yourself!

A few seconds pass and Dominic lifts his hand up from Obito's wound that was now healed completely. Obito then sits up and looks at Dominic who pulls him into a hug with tears falling from his cheeks

Dominic: Thank goodness!! I...I can't lose someone who I care about again! I...I can't! I.....

Dante: Well isn't this a touching scene?

Dominic shouts up to his feet and turns around to see Dante with team RWBY behind him. He wipes his eyes and places his hand to his sword

Dominic: Dante..!

Ruby: Obito!!

Ruby takes a step forward but was halted by Dante putting his hand forward

Dante: So, what happened here?

Dominic: It's none of your concern Dante. I assume you're here for the amulet?

Dante: Yeah. Our mother's necklace is to unlock the door to the Demon World. Hehe..Good plan, pop.

Dominic: Just the opposite actually...Originally it was the key to the Demon World but it was given to the humans as a gift.

Dante: It doesn't matter to me one way or the other. More importantly, we've come all this way.

Dante takes Rebellion from his back and points it at his brother

Dante: I'm sure you have time for one more game, right?

Blake: Dante what are you doing?!

Dante: I'm putting an end to this...back off. Or you'll see my bad side.

Dominic slightly unsheathes his sword but puts it back in its sheathe

Dominic: Why not? After all we share the same blood.

Dominic puts up his fists and summons his new Beowulf weapon to his hands with a smirk on his face

Dominic: I'll just use more of yours to undo daddy's little spell~

Dante: So, you want a piece of me, literally. Okay bro. Come and get it, if you can!

Obito: Stop!! Dominic what about us just going home? This doesn't have to end in bloodshed! What about you crying over me nearly dying?

Yang: He...cried?

Dominic: Though I am relieved of your recover Obito, I just can't stop now when I am so close to my goal. I'm sorry...

The two brothers rush at each other with Dominic throwing a punch while Dante thrusts Rebellion forward

To be continued...
