Devil May Cry - Heavy Rain, Pt. 1

After hours of fighting through the numerous floors of Temen-Ni-Gru, Lady had finally encountered the Jester once again. Upon catching an unexpected glimpse of the bastard smacking his ass at her, she instantly broke into a mad dash to pursue him. She followed the sound of his echoing cackles through the winding corridors, determined to catch him and finally get the answers she sought pertaining to her father.

Her pace increased as she heard the sound of shifting stone all around her. She didn't need to stop and look to know that the surfaces of the hallways were rearranging themselves. She leapt through narrowing gaps, over widening chasms, and even ran on the walls as she turned the corners - no deadly trap or misdirection was going to slow her down or deter her from catching her prey.

The chase brought Lady to a dimly-lit room - a dead end, with no sign of Jester. She scanned the room to be sure, her rocket launcher, Kalina Ann, at the ready - but nothing, not even so much as a horde of demons for her to take out her building frustrations on. She scowled angrily, the leather of her gloves creaking as her grip tightened on her weapon. After a moment of silent seething, she let out a furious shout and slammed Kalina Ann into the stone floor, blade first, standing firmly in place as she let go.

Lady closed her eyes, taking a few deep breaths to help calm herself. Upon opening them, she spotted something on the floor just a few steps in front of her. Once her eyes had time to adjust, they widened in surprise as she discovered that it was... Jester's scepter. With her judgement still clouded by her remaining anger and her burning desire to catch him so badly, she wasted no time approaching it. As she did, however, she noticed something odd about it - rather than the gem that normally capped off the scepter, this time it appeared to be topped with... a doughnut?

Before Lady could even raise an eyebrow at this oddest of details, a faint pink glow began to emanate from the pastry. As the glow became brighter and the scepter rose from the floor, Lady took a step back. The confusion on her face made way for a scowl once more, as she realized this was part of the trap she was being led to. Before she could even reach back for the weapon behind her, the doughnut gave off a blinding flash to disorient her before flinging itself into the air above her.

By the time Lady finished rubbing her eyes, the cursed dessert had begun sending sparkling pink trails spiraling outward around itself - before showering her with them as well. Almost immediately, her stomach growled hungrily. Completely caught off guard, Lady clutched her toned abdomen as the burning emptiness built up with in. It was then that Jester's cackles echoed through the chamber once more. "You know what they say, a growing girl's gotta eat!"

Lady looked around angrily, trying to spot her antagonist through the raining sparks. "I don't know what the hell you're on about, but the longer you run from me, the harder I'm going to beat your ass!" she threatened, defiantly.

"Ha! At least I'll still be able to run after all this!" Jester retorted, punctuating his sentence with another bout of maniacal laughter that faded away along with the sparks.

Lady looked up to find the scepter had vanished, before her vision was muddled yet again by the torches lighting all around the room. Blinking a few times as her eyes adjusted once more, she saw through her squinted eyelids that the room was quite a bit larger than she expected, in both width and height. Looking back down in front of her, she caught sight of a long table along the wall in front of her - and it was loaded with food.

<Mmm, now doesn't that all look good?> echoed another voice in Lady's head, this time a sultry, teasing, female one. Lady's stomach rumbled, as if agreeing. Lady tried her best to stand her ground, confused and pissed off by whatever was going on. Unfortunately, as her hunger grew and her mouth began to water, she knew, despite herself, she wouldn't be able to resist. Still clutching her stomach, she took one shaky step forward...

And the demonic presence inside of her was pleased.
