Author's Note:Obviously by now, the story is different from what the original DMC lore is, but this was the best I could do, I hope you guys understand the changes I made with Mundus and the other characters from their original versions. Anyways, onto the chapter.
[A flashback occurs as a mysterious winged figure is limping. He rips out "Devil-Sword Sparda" from his chest and stabs it in the ground, using it as a crutch.]
Mundus: Home sweet home.

[It shows a gloomy landscape engulfed in eternal darkness and old structures which is the realm between heaven and hell, Limbo. He spends his time there ruling over the lost souls stuck there. He patiently waits.]
[Years pass as Mundus sends his corrupted souls to fight in the human realm. The events of DMC 3 take place as Vergil arrives in Limbo. Worn out from his last battle. He gets on his feet as he seems to be in the presence of Mundus as three red glowing eyes appear.]
Vergil: It'll be fun to fight this Prince of Darkness. If my father did it, *unsheathes Yamato* I should be able to do it too!
[Vergil charges forward with Mundus smiling. Vergil leaps into the air and comes down with a slash as Mundus blocks his attack. Mundus then pushes Vergil off him and manipulates the rubble to go after him. Vergil dodges a couple as he jumps from one to another. Mundus then summons small white orbs that shoot multiple white energy needles to which Vergil parries most of them but his tiredness starts getting to him as some of the needles hit him. He lands on a pillar to regain some composure. Just then, a fireball is launched at his location and he narrowly dodges it. Vergil knows he lacks range attacks so as soon as he lands on the ground, he speeds off to Mundus who also speeds towards Vergil. As soon as they meet in one clash, Vergil notices that Mundus is using Devil Sword Sparda to his surprise. Their swords continue to clash. Mundus does a horizontal slash but Vergil flips over it and uses Judgement Cut that catches Mundus off guard. Vergil takes this opportunity and unleashes a couple more slashes. He slashes upwards which sends Mundus into the air and summons blue swords which impale Mundus and keep him in the air for a brief moment. Vergil jumps and summons Beowulf (a set of black gauntlets and greaves with a somewhat animalistic look. The gauntlets vaguely resemble a wolf's head, with fangs and a mane. The greaves look like clawed legs. They also have glowing veins that have white light flowing through them.) and does apowerful, downward-revolving kick. As Mundus' body is on the ground, Vergil tries to unleash another attack using the Yamato but Mundus unleashes red needles from his back which Vergil gets hit by and gets launched back. Mundus gets up and cracks his neck, looking tired but still ready to fight. Vergil on the other hand seems exhausted but he still pushes on. He then goes into his Devil Trigger mode.]
