Dante got his face out of the snowy ground, but it got knocked back in as a hailstone hit his head. Dante rubbed his head, and looked up. It was pouring rain, hail, and other forms of precipitation, and the ground was filled with that awful mix of snow and mud you see all the time during winter. Dante stepped forwards, shielding his head with his hand.
There were corpses scattered all around, and from the looks of it, they didn’t have a peaceful death. They looked like they were… eaten? Dante could also spot some people down in a valley, and decided to walk down, but hesitated when he saw that they were feasting on another person, probably someone who got on their bad side. This place reeked of gluttony and cannnibalism.
Suddenly, a growling could be heard. Dante’s head swiveled around, wondering what made that noise, and immediately got jumped by a large, 3-headed dog.
(Cerberus)
Dante’s leg got bit, and Cerberus threw him high into the air. Dante fired 4 shots of his gun into the beast’s mouth, and that was enough to distract it for a while. Dante tried to run, but got pinned down by Cerberus, and had his back clawed repeatedly until Dante could reach for his knife and stab the beast, right in its chest. Dante got up, and fired a few more shots at Cerberus until he was confident he could run away. He ran down into the valley as fast as he could, dodging the hailstones dropping down like mortar shells, but then tripped and fell.
He rolled down into a ditch for a little bit, and then hit something squishy and bony. He looked over, and to his dismay, it was a half-eaten corpse. Standing next to it was 2 people with a mouthful of flesh holding spears.
Person 1: Who the hell-
Person 2: More food.
Person 1: Heh, I didn’t know we were gonna have a big feast tonight.
Dante scrambled to try and get away from the two, and if it wasn’t for his amazing reaction speed, would have been stabbed right in the thigh. Dante took out his gun, only to realize it was jammed. Knowing he should probably save the ammo in his rocket launcher for a more important matter, such as the rampaging Cerberus, who was still trying to find Dante, Dante took out his knife and threw it at one of the cannibals.
The cannibal screamed in pain, dropped dead, and the other lunged at Dante. Dante dodged his attack, and a hailstone fell on the head of a cannibal. Dante used this time to pull the knife out of the face of the other cannibal.
Suddenly, Cerberus came charging down the mountain, and tried to attack Dante.
Cannibal: Oh, shit, It’s the dog!
Dante glanced over at the cannibal, and decided to not kill him. He could be used as a meat shield or distraction while he figured out how to get out of here. Suddenly, a raspy voice could be heard.
???: Okay, who the hell woke up Cerbie? I’ll drop a thousand hailstones on your go***mn head!
The figure was another demon, like Solus and Libidine. His body was half-eaten, and he had a machete in his hand.
(Rapax)
Rapax: …you! The guy wearing the stupid military getup!
Dante looked over at Rapax, and realized he was talking to him.
Rapax: You’d better have a good reason to invade this place, General Dipshit!
Dante tried to signal towards his mouth, to show that he couldn’t speak.
Rapax: Oh, I see how it is. Your drunk abusive father rip out your f**king vocal cords? ‘Cause i’ll rip out your spine!
Rapax ran over to Dante, and swung his machete at him. He missed, but managed to knock the knife out of his hand. Dante tried to throw a punch, but missed, and Rapax kicked Dante in the male reproductive area.
Rapax: I don’t have time for this shit. Cerbie, sic ‘em!
Dante’s eyes lit up with fear. The three-headed monstrosity of a pet stopped attacking the cannibal and charged towards Dante. Dante took out his gun again and smashed the grip into one of the beast’s heads. He then proceeded to fire a few shots at the beast’s leg, and it tripped and fell. Dante ran over to the cannibal as the dog struggled to get up, and gave him his hat, mask, and jacket.
Cannibal: What the hell are you doing?
Dante then shot the cannibal in the head, and swiftly carried his body over to Rapax.
Dante kicked Rapax to the ground, and threw the body onto Rapax.
Cerberus, having the great smell and poor eyesight of a dog, smelled Dante’s clothes on the cannibal’s corpse and assumed it was Dante. He pounced on the corpse, which was still lying on Rapax as he struggled to get up.
Rapax: WAIT! NO! BAD DOGGIE! STOP! STOP!
Cerberus mauled both the corpse and Rapax as Rapax screamed in pain. Soon enough, Rapax was dead.
And Dante was transported to a new place once again.
Lmao imagine being mauled be your own god
Also I imagine the demon in greed looks like an upper-class gentleman from shortly before the French Revolution
