Dante blocked a swinging scythe with Ivory, grinning in the things face as he brought up Ebony to shoot its head clear off. He ran through its floating sand to stand before the last troublesome Greed. Shooting it twice before holstering his guns quickly, he leaped over its sweeping coffin attack and preformed a somersault over its head, twisting his body around to face it from behind. Coming down with his sword out, he chopped it in two and watched the dust fly away. Glancing from side to side he noted that his brother, and probably Trish too if she had stuck around, had taken care of the rest of the lower demons.

Trish, having scanned the area and reassured there were no remaining demons, walked over to Dante.
"Glad to see your back with us. This way." She led them to the top of the stairs where there was another symbol on the wall. Touching it, the words 'To enter beyond my guarded door, shine a light where there was none before' glowed.
In the centre of the symbol was a dark area. It wasn't a hole, but there was nothing there.
"We need to find the object that opens this door." Trish informed them.

Vergil followed Trish and Dante up the stairs and he caught Trish's words; he stared at Trish increduously and raised a clinical eyebrow to Dante, finding objects now? why did he get a bad feeling about this? he just sighed and watched her carefully, "what is it and where do we start looking?" he snapped, he just wanted to get this done and he didnt need a scavenger hunt to hold them up.

Dante silently agreed with his brother. He stood with his arms crossed and his foot tapping impatiently. "Babe, come on. What's with the foreplay? Can't we just bust the door down for crying out loud?"

Vergil was becoming impatient at Trish's silence as she stared between them looking hesitant, "We asked quesstions," he growled in a dangerously low voice, Yamato was itching to be in his hand again and he took a threatening step forward the blade started coming from its sheath; the more he was in her company the stronger the feeling of distrust was becoming. Not for the first time he thought she should have been killed when they first saw her, his eyes narrowed, "Start talking."

"Look, I didn't design the place okay. You can try breaking the door down if you like but it won't do much good. Just because I didn't know it was there, doesn't mean I don't recognise the lock." Trish shook her head. "I'm going to find it difficult to help you guys if everytime something comes up it's instantly blamed on me."

Dante stood another moment tapping his foot, then quite suddenly he whirled out Rebellion and pointed it at Trish. He waved for her to move out of the way and then took a stance in front of the door. He swung brashly at it several times, putting all his strength, as far as he knew, into the swungs. To no avail. The door didn't budge and, softly swearing, he replaced Rebellion on his back and whipped out Ebony and Ivory. He gave a few shots, aiming mostly where he though the lock(s) might be. He kicked at it a few times to knock it down but it still didn't move. Shrugging towards his brother, he reholstered his guns and then started walking down the corridor. "Guess we do it her way..."

Vergil nodded reluctantly after Dante's pointless attack on the door, "Guess we do," he murmured and looked at Trish who was standing as if waiting for him, "After you," he motioned for her to start walking and they followed Dante who had managed to get ahead of them.

Trish looked around the hallway. "I suggest we start looking downstairs through those other doors we saw." She followed Dante and half kept a suspicious eye on Vergil.

Vergil eyed Trish with equal suspicion as he walked slightly behind her and off to the side, the distance barely noticable but just enough for him to be able to walk without the feeling she would attack him from where he couldn't see, he noted she was also trying to keep a subtle eye on him, his hand rested on Yamato's hilt, the further they walked the bigger the a sense of foreboding flooded him and not necesarily from the devil at his side.

Dante hopped down the steps two at a time finally jumping the last seven at the bottom. He stood at the foot of the stairs staring around at the doors, trying to be patient enough to wait for the other two. He glanced back up at the stairs, saw them half way down and then grinned, waving up at them. "Come on, slow pokes!" He turned back to the doors and choose one to his right. Dashing towards it, he called back to them. "You're gonna miss the party!"
He opened the door and walked through, eyes searching his surroundings carefully. Too late, he realized his mistake as the door quickly slammed shut behind him. He banged on it for awhile, but suddenly a red glow covered the door and he dodged away just in time as a huge hand reached out to grab him. "Whoa..." He stayed clear of the door after that and decided to check out the rest of the room.

Vergil gave a small smile at Dante's eagerness but the smile soon faded hearing the door slam a little ahead, he sped quickly realising Dante had gone through, he started banging furiously at the door, "Dante," he called but recieved no answer as the door would not budge.
He glared dangerously at Trish, his iron grip was clamped around her throat tightly and he pinned her to a wall, nothing other than pure fury coursing through him, but his voice was low and deadly, "What is going on?" he demanded, "Is this how you would try to take us down? By seperating us?Is that the only reason you brought us here? to kill us?" he squeezed harder momentarily his glare never left her.

Trish brought her hand up grabbing Vergil's wrist, unleashing a burst of energy, just enough for Vergil to let go and draw back his hand.
Landing gracefully, Trish rubbed her neck. "This isn't going to solve anything. I didn't bring you here to kill you or Dante. But if you want to get this out of your system. Come on."
Trish took a defensive stance, seeing if Vergil would react to her challenge.

Vergil had not really heard her words, warnings were flashing in his mind as was concern for Dante; she wanted them dead, she was an immediate threat and seeng she was in a defensive fighting stance fuled his fire of rage and Yamato was tight in his hand as he launched for her with the blade attacking her high also delivering a low lick.

(Ooo kinky- sorry typo made me laugh) Trish reacted instantly to the threat that Vergil now presented to her. She avoided the blade but didn't quite evade the kick that impacted just above her knee. Hot pain shot through her leg as she attempted to keep her balance and twisting she brought a leg round and kicked Vergil in the back.
