*just before Dante and Kat get to the circle the is a loud CRACK of a shot, Dante covers Kat with her body*
Dante: Kat, are you okay?
Kat: I'm fine.
Dante:* Looks up to see Virgil take her eye away from the sight, smoke still trailing from the barel of the rifle, and turn around to see Lilith hit the pavement, a perfect hole between her eyes.*
<Snipped quote by Araby264>
Every law of proper hostage behavior has been violated.
*Takes a gun and aims at Lilith's head*
Mundus: *nods to the creatures who walk half way up to the edge of the circle*
I don't trust that you won't just grab her and take my Lilith with you. So walk out of your precious little circle and bring Lilith halfway.
Dante: *opens her mouth*
Mundus: Or the girl dies.
*the Reavers put their sputtering cainsaws on either side of Kat's neck and the tyrant holds its club up high. Virgil firms the rifle to her shoulder and aims at the center of Mundus' forehead.*
*there is a small click as the revolving door at the bottom of the building opens and Mundus walks out. He is smoking a black cigar and wearing a fine suit. When he speaks his deep voice seems to make the world quake and quiver*
Mundus: Do you now? I can't see anyone with you.
Dante: you don't see her until we see Kat.
Mundus: *chuckles* how trivial. Bring out the prisoner!
*there is another click as two Reavers and a Tyrant walk out with Kat. She stands between the Reavers and the Tyrant is behind her. She looks horrible, she had a bloody lip, several scratches on her face, and she walks with a limp*
Dante: *growls* what did you do to her?!
Mundus: I may have let a few of the creatures play with her before I got your call.
Dante:....
Mundus: Now, where is Lilith?
Dante: *opens the back of the car and retrieves Llilith who looks fine, and even a bit smug. Dante pushes her to the edge of the portal* have the creatures being Kat to the edge of the circle*

Virgil: *a little absent mindedly* 'And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.'
<Snipped quote by Zeal>
Good. Do that.
<Snipped quote by Dynamics>
Dante: Well, we aren't double crossing him, and we have a portal to get away. But thanks for the advice. We'll put it to use.
*gets in the passenger seat*
<Snipped quote by Zeal>
Virgil: That's everyone, let's go.
*she drives forward, down the tunnel until we get to a cavern. Once in the cavern virgil parks*
Alright Glyph, power up the circle.
Glyph: certainly.
*around us the floor begins to glow red and we see that the whole cavern floor is painted to be a portal to Limbo. *
Dante: Woah... When did you guys do this?
Virgil: when you took your little escapade.
Dante: oh... Heh.
*slowly the circle turns white as we slip into limbo. We are at the base of Mundus' building, the portal sill glows beneath us*
Virgil: Glyph, if anything happens cut power to the circle and get us out of here.
Glyph: I know Virgil.
<Snipped quote by Zeal>
Anywho, what's going on?
<Snipped quote by Zeal>
Yeah. Then I decided to work out some Ananke physics, but it was too late.
