Is this a ghost?

I stood in the fortuna temple in a upper room. I walked to the center of the room before I felt a sudden chill. I turned to see Nero's Mother, Sarah, standing in front of me. "Hello Vergil..." She said to me. I teared up, I never thought I'd see her again. "Sarah, but..." I said as I approached her. She let out a kind smile like she used to. "I'm dead? Yes, I know Vergil, I came to see how our son has grown, and to see you." She said with the most beautiful smile I've seen since I went to demon realm prison. "I didn't mean to leave you..." I said as I fell to my knees. Sarah grabbed my head and place it to her breast. "It's fine my love, I know why you left me." She said. "But Nero was forced to live among humans..." I said and Sarah began to laugh. "What would have changed if you stayed with us? I would still be dead, and he would have been raised to hate them as much as you do." She had said with her beautiful voice. She then began to float and became engulfed in light. "Sarah, what's happening to you?" I asked her as she floated higher to the ceiling. "Don't worry love, my time was limited, I'll be watching over you and Nero, and know that I love you both." She said as she faded through the ceiling. That caused me to lose it. I dropped down and wept like a small child.

Shadow apears behind vergil, and approaches him slowly and in a well mannerd way. "So who's this Vergil?" I say with curiousity.

I stood up and wiped my tears. I grabbed Shadow by the collar of his shadow mail and held him to the wall, I then let him go. The vision of Sarah had calmed the demon inside me. "That was Nero's mother..." I said quietly as I turned from him. "She died because I wasn't strong enough to protect her from the Order of the Sword, which is what led to my own fall." I said sadly as I headed for the door. "I'm not in the mood to take your life today." I said as I left the room.

"Vergil... Vergil.. Vergil... Stop crying it doesnt suit you. Besides how was i supposed to know that.. Also i wasnt here to make any attempt or threat of killing you or anyone. I dont think its your fault though, pleanty of peple would have made the same mistake if put in your position at that time. I would have. " I say with shock.

I had walked out of the cathedral and wound up in the cemetery. I had passed by the tombstones and found Sarah's grave. I dropped to my knees and teared again. "Sarah, I'm just... not strong enough. I need you here, I love you." I said as I placed my hands on my face. I had forgotten Sarah's last words... "Don't hate humans for their crime, they never can understand our love." She had said before they burned her on a cross for loving a demon, for loving me. The thought of this caused me to feel the familiar burn of hatred that I had for humans. Sarah's last words fell on deaf ears, and I now realize it, she was right, Humans with their fragile minds were incapable of understanding our love. I stood up and realized one thing, Nero was the only thing that Sarah had given to me, the most precious gift that I would ever receive, and she would never forgive me if I had let him die. "I need more power..." I said with the sorrow still heavy on my heart.

''your not the only one'' i say as i walk over to Vergil

I looked at Wraith then down at my lover's tombstone. "What are you doing here Wraith? Come to meet Shadow, I saw him not to long ago." I said plainly, still remembering Sarah's scent and her soft skin. Her memory was the only thing that kept me sane when I had gotten it back while I was imprisoned in the Demon Realm.

''no I'm not here to meet shadow I've come to pray for all the friends I've lost in the past they died because i wasn't strong enough to protect them so every once in a while i come visit them'' i say

"That's rather nice of you." I said plainly not looking up from Sarah's tombstone. "Did you love any of them?" I asked sorrowfully.

''they were my family of course i did altho we weren't actually blood related we were in many battles but when we weren't on the battle field there was nothing that could separate us'' i say in remembrance

I sighed and shook my head. "I lost my mother because I wasn't powerful enough, ten years later, I lose Nero's mother, she's buried here." I said indicating the tombstone.

''i'm sorry for your losses'' i say

I sighed. "Yeah, my losses, Nero never got to meet his mother or grandmother." I said before tearing up. "It's not fair for a child to lose the women figures of their lives so early on." I said sadly.

''i never new my mother i grew up on the streets'' i say

I chuckled. "Nero grew up in a cult that worshiped my father." I said plainly.

''well that sounds better than being a demon and living on the streets'' i say with a smile

I almost began to laugh at that. "Try being a sacrifice sometime." I said with a smile.

''oh spoke to soon'' i say

"Try being a trapped spirit in a demons body for a few million years." I say as I walk out from behind a tombstone.

''that also sucks'' i say

I sighed. "Ghost, how many times do I have to tell you, you've only been gone for ten years." I explained calmly. "You just think you were gone because of the time flux and multidimensional rifts that pass through Demon Realm." I explained.

OOC: I felt really intelligent for the last part of this topic. XD

"Explain the millions and millions of calenders I have in storage. There's not a single double." I say naggignly.

''well this i have to hear'' i say with a smile

I chuckled. "You were in hell, you really think that there isn't a couple of cheats down there trying to make a profit?" I explained.

"You all have nothing on me." A voice was heard, as Cepeda exited a portal into the middle of the group. "MY parents, were both brutally murdered right in front of me and Nero." Cepeda said, as he looked at Vergil. "I went years, without knowing my brother, when he was right next to me, then I find out he isn't even my brother." Cepeda said, as he looked at Ghost. "A demon was trapped into my body, and took control of me often." Cepeda looked over at Shadow and Wraith. Cepeda smirked, as he looked at them. "Don't give me this pity stories, because you won't get any sympathy from me, unless you have gone through all the trouble I've been through."
