[Ever since Dante took the job of Deputy Guardian, one of his primary duties was patrolling the Midnight Channel to make sure nobody got stuck in there. It was a part of his daily routine at this point, but he couldn't say he minded. In fact on days that seemed particularly dull, he'd find himself drawn to the place. After all, the Shadows in there may not be demons but they provided enough of a challenge to keep his adrenaline pumping as he cut loose. Today was one such day, and after clocking out of the office, he headed toward the gate.]
[He was carrying only the guitar case he always had, though before entering the gateway, he took time to put on some headphones with LED lights on them. A couple button pushes on his phone later and those near him could start to hear the rhythmic thumping of the thrash metal Dante was listening to before he stepped inside.]
[Any that were curious, clumsy, or just wanted to watch him in action, would find the guitar case left just inside the gate, empty, save for a magazine of questionable quality. However, the sounds of steel clashing and gunshots could be heard in the distance, and upon following the sounds, the spectator would be treated to the vision of Dante hacking through veritable armies with relative ease. Even when one Shadow manages to run a stylized lance through his back it only seems to annoy Dante at most. Once the group of Shadows is dispatched, he'd glance over his shoulder, curious as to why anyone would follow him here.]
