The moment Moxxie touched the ground, he regretted not taking a helmet when he had the chance. Immediately, desert sand smacked him in the face from a gust of wind, which nearly made him choke. It reminded him of that one job they had in Arizona where the client requested his ex-wife be buried up to her neck in the sand with scorpions laid around her screaming face before leaving her to die a slow death. He had sand in places Moxxie never wanted to feel again.
Thankfully, there weren't any sandstorms or high winds, save for the occasional breeze. If it wasn't for the fact that they were focusing on breaking into the expensive-looking summer home nearby, the young imp would have been fascinated by the red and black desert landscape. The hellish moon above gave it an almost glittering reflection that sort of looked beautiful—a rare thing to find in Hell.
"Moxxie, get over here," Grimbeak said, snapping Mox out of his thoughts. He quickly rushed over to the cliff's ledge and crawled down to his belly with the other snipers. Taking his Barrett M82 Rifle, Moxxie started to scope out the big summer home. It looked a lot more modern than the typical gothic structures that Goetia demons used, like Stolas. It even had a big fancy swimming pool the size of Moxxie's apartment complex.
"There are a lot of Tangos outside," One of the other shadow guards stated. "We won't be able to take them all out with one shot each."
"Can we at least take out enough so that Team 3 has a perfect chance for a surprise entrance?" Grimbeak asked.
"There's a good location at the top," Moxxie noted, eyeing the roof of the building. "About seven guards. Breaching from above should do it."
"Copy that."
Grimbeak touched the side of his helmet and spoke. "Team 3, we're going to eliminate the guards on the top roof. That should be your breaching point. Team 2 will have to go in loud from the ground, but we'll give support. Over."
"Team 2 confirms. We're already ready in position. Over."
Moxxie took a quick look at the walls and other entrances where various squads were positioning themselves. Near the south wall, he spotted his wife, Loona, Reginald, and a few others getting ready. Bodies of nearby tengu and owl demons lay hidden nearby.
"Team 3 confirms and is standing by for teleportation once it's clear Team 1. Over."
"Team 1 confirms. Over." Grimbeak said before nodding to several snipers on his left. Unlike Moxxie's rifle, theirs held silencers, and they quickly got to work eliminating the guards on the rooftop. In less than five seconds, Moxxie saw all their heads explode into piles of mush without so much as a cricket chirping. "Tangos on the roof are down. Team 3, you are clear to teleport. Over."
"Roger. Over."
Through his scope, Moxxie saw a portal open up before Prince Stolas, and half a dozen of his shadow guards arrived on the roof. The prince started placing a rune on the top that was glowing bright white before stepping back.
"Team 3, ready to breach on the roof and other locations. Over"
"Team 2, also ready. Over."
"Team 1, ready to provide covering fire," Grimbeak said as he prepared his sniper rifle.
Moxxie quickly tried to scope out a target and found a tengu sipping tea near a balcony while two of his other fellow Yokai were chatting with one another. Taking into consideration the wind and angle he was in, Moxxie positioned the crosshair just below the navel and slightly to the right. With a deep breath, Moxxie concentrated and put his finger right against the trigger.
"On my mark," Prince Stolas commanded as the world seemed to go quiet for a full minute. "Mark!"
Moxxie pulled the trigger, his rifle roaring in the night sky along with dozens of other rifles. Explosions rocked the building as breacher charges went off along with panicked cries and shouts of gunfire. Moxxie saw his target's chest explode with a direct hit and quickly adjusted his aim for another one. The tengu to his right was surprised initially but then summoned a magical energy shield to protect him. Not that it did any good as the next shot from Moxxie went right through the protection spell and into his lower chest. Moxxie went to go get the next one, but already it was dead from another sniper shot.
Moxxie continued to take shot after shot at any target he could spot. Some of them were outside, while others were unfortunate enough to be spotted near windows. Switching to the more luxurious windowed areas, he saw a few bodies hiding behind walls while taking shots outside. Grinning, Moxxie lined up his shots and ensured that they weren't as safe as they thought they were in their final moments. Thanks to his special Anti-Personal rounds, he could shoot them right through walls and leave them in a pool of blood.
Reloading after bagging his latest kill, Moxxie soon saw Loona and Millie fighting their way through some tengu from one of the windows. The hall they were in was painted red with blood and guts of their victims. Noticing one of the tengu heading for Loona from behind, Moxxie quickly aimed and fired right through the glass, nailing a perfect headshot.
Smirking, he spoke on his radio. "You owe me one, Loona."
"I had him, asshole."
Shaking his head, Moxxie focused on finding another target while hoping the girls would be okay.
The moment the breach went off, Loona rushed in howling with rage. All the anger and sorrow she had kept inside since that phone call two days ago was about to be unleashed, and she didn't care who was in her way. Loona was going to kill them all to get her dad home safe and sound. Drawing her Damascus Steel M1911, Loona began to fire away at any of the owl or raven like figures before her. The special bullets really did seem to do wonders as a small burst of white and blue energy emerged from the wounds, causing any of the owl Goetia demons to go down like dominos.
By the time the rest of the group entered, she had already cleared out their starting room before moving to the next. Pushing herself as fast as possible, Loona ran into what appeared to be some kind of lounge. She started firing her pistols, but these guys were already armed and ready for her. Even the maids were firing guns. Seeing herself outgunned, Loona quickly rolled over to a wall to take cover from some machine gunfire.
Reloading, she saw Millie and two shadow guards rush over on the other side. One of the guards pulled out a flashbang and pulled the pin before throwing it into the room.
Upon hearing it go off, Loona rushed in, guns blazing. She took out two of the owl demons and then proceeded to jump onto a nearby table and started sliding on it. Firing, she took out two more before landing at the end, where she shoved her knee into a blind tengu demon. Landing on top of him, Loona dove her jaw into his throat and ripped it out. Licking the blood off her muzzle, she saw Millie shoot another tengu with her shotgun, splitting it in half, while the other two shadow guards finished off the rest in the room.
"Slow down a little, Loona. Don't want to get too deep in our necks. Remember, we're the team trying to save Blitzo," Millie pointed out.
"Whatever, just keep up already!" Loona shouted as she ran out of the room.
Entering the hallway, the group saw a row of tengu demons, katana's out, rushing towards them. The group fired, but to their surprise, they were fast enough to block the shots with their katanas at lightning speed and reflect them back at the group. Loona and Millie were quick enough to duck, but their two allies were soon shredded by their own bullets and fell in a heap.
"Shit, now what?" Loona asked, looking at her guns and realizing they were useless.
"I got this. I just hope it works!" Millie said, switching for her MP5. She fired at the tengu and, just like before, they blocked the bullets fast enough with their swords. What they didn't expect was their katanas to slowly turn to ice instead of reflecting the shots.
"Hot damn! It did work!" Millie shouted, looking at her ice firing gun with glee.
"Okay, that works," Loona said, charging forward while switching her pistols for her MAC-10. "Cover me!"
Charging forward, Loona held down the trigger, forcing the tengu to summon magical barriers to protect them. Millie provided cover, her bullets damaging the shields, as Loona got close enough to use her claw to swipe at the leg of a tengu and forced him onto his knee. Dodging an iced katana strike to her chest, Loona then used the bent knee to jump up and wrap her legs around the tengu's neck. Using her weight downward, she flipped him over with her legs, gripping his head into the floor. Loona raised her gun and fired at his skull, filling him up with bullets before rolling to the right to avoid a downward slash that tried to split her head in half. Grabbing the nearby dead tengu's iced katana, she slashed around and started clashing with some of the tengu's blades.
Naturally, she wasn't as skilled as the actual tengu when it came to blade combat, but with assistance from Millie and the others, Loona was forcing them between defending against her or their bullets. Still, Loona was no expert in sword combat, and the tengu, despite their predicament, was skilled enough to force her back and cut her a few times despite her efforts. Particularly a nasty one that dug deep into her shoulder.
Blocking a slice, Loona held her wounded arm while pushing one tengu away. Knowing she had to get creative, the hellhound attacked the nearest tengu with a few strikes before locking blades with it. Grinning, she took out her MAC-10 with one paw and unloaded a full clip into his body, breaking the magic shield and getting a few holes in. She then finished him off by stabbing the iced katana into his head. Letting the auto-reload feature kick in, she started to fire her MAC-10 again, only this time one of the Tengu managed to slice the gun in half. Cursing, Loona backed away only to hear Millie shout, "Loona, duck!"
Reacting on instinct, she felt Millie's hand use her back to leap forward and block a blade aiming for her with the sword Reginald gave her. Unlike Loona, Millie was able to keep up with the tengu with her skill. Despite her size and smaller blade, Millie had managed to hold her own against multiple tengus with twists, flips, and ducks. With every dodge, she left a cut on their bodies and limbs to the point where she soon started to decorate herself in their blood.
One tried to stab her from behind, but she managed to backflip over him while slicing his arms off in a mid twist. The tengu screamed before Millie landed behind him and stabbed him straight in the back.
Loona, not wanting to be outdone. Dived for another tengu and forced him on the defense by knocking his sword away. It tried to attack Loona with his claws, but she caught both of his arms before headbutting him in the face while using her jaw to bite off his big red nose. The tengu, holding his bleeding face, started cursing his mouth off before Loona blew his head off with her double-barrel shotgun, leaving him a burned corpse thanks to the Dragonfire shells. The two girls stood back to back as the remaining five tengu surrounded them, drawing second blades that were not iced earlier by Millie
"Got three on my side. You?" Millie asked.
"Two little sons of bitches. Ready?" Loona asked, grinning as she reloaded.
"Always."
Both girls charged forward as Loona made her way towards her two targets, who raised their katanas in preparation. The two tengu charged ahead and tried to slice at her together, but Loona slid on her knees, leaning her head back for the swords to pass right above her nose. Loona drew her pistols, turned around, and fired at the tengu, nailing the one to her left in the legs, but the right one was able to dodge. Using her canine legs, Loona launched herself into the air and plunged her claws deep into the back of the wounded tengu before biting into his neck. Screaming, the tengu swung his blade in an attempt to get him off, but Loona held on until she used her legs to push him into his fellow tengu while dropping his katana.
Grabbing it, Loona howled with fury before plunging the katana right through the chest of the first and straight into the second as she pinned them to the wall. Deciding to finish them off, she drew her double-barrel shotgun, pressed it against the tengu head in front of her, and fired with both barrels. A barrage of flaming shells burst both heads into popping like popcorn as their brain matter and guts decorated the windows.
She was about to make a taunt when Millie shouted, "Loona! Behind you!"
Cursing, Loona tried to reload as a tengu attempted to attack her from behind. Suddenly, a bullet crashed through the window before hitting the tengu dead on with a perfect headshot.
"You owe me one, Loona," Moxxie said on the radio.
Loona grumbled before reloading her shotgun. "I had him, asshole."
"Sorry, Loona," Millie said, wiping the blood off her blade as her two decapitated opponents lay on the floor. "He got away at the last second."
Suddenly, their radios went off. "This is Reginald of Team 2. We may have found the location of where they are keeping Blitzo. All members of Team 2 head to the living room with the elevator."
Loona and Millie were about to head off when a powerful explosion caused a part of the hallway to crumble. The two covered their faces from the dust and rubble before spotting someone who looked to be a male version of Stella land hard against the wall. He was covered in burn marks and bleeding wounds while struggling to get up. The girls wondered who this was until they froze upon seeing the blade in his hand. A bastard sword of glowing blue steel with white glowing runes on it in a language neither knew. Its handle had angel wings flapping as the guard while the center of the pommel had a glowing azure jewel.
The girls gulped upon seeing the first real scary thing since the attack: An Angel Blade.
Stepping out of the hole, the armored Prince Stolas walked out calmly like he was taking a simple walk in the park. Noticing the two, the demon prince turned to them. "Loona. Millie. I believe Reginald has found a way to Blitzo. Please head over there while I deal with Alexander here?"
"Bastard! Don't you look away from me!" The noble-looking owl demon screamed as he tried to attack with his sword. Stolas quickly blocked all the blows with his spear, causing waves of energy to emit each time the weapons each time they clashed. Both ladies looked at each other before slowly nodding that this was beyond their league and followed Stolas's orders.
The moment Stolas burst into his in-laws' home, he held nothing back. His spear found its first target mere seconds upon bursting through the roof. Moving with the grace and speed of lighting itself, each demon that wasn't among his shadow guards was pierced, sliced, or chopped before they could even so much as blink.
His shadow guards didn't even need to fire their guns once after it was all done. Honestly, he didn't really need them, but he knew they would be stubbornly insisting on accompanying him everywhere.
Much as he wanted to look for Blitzo, he needed an outlet to get rid of his rage over what had happened. Not to mention that Alexander and Natasha needed to be taken care of. He was also worried about this cloaked figure that Stella spoke about, but he felt no other presence strong enough to match her description of him.
Proceeding down the hall, Stolas saw a long line of tengu demons, spears and swords drawn, ready to charge at him. Rolling his four eyes, Stolas lifted his hand and summoned a ball of fire. He tossed it into the hall with a few whispers where it took on the form of a gigantic towering winged lion that roared before flooding the hall with flames. The tengu screamed and cawed as they were burned to the bone, allowing Stolas to walk down a different direction without a care.
Turning around the corner, Stolas entered a billiard room where he soon found himself getting hit by gunfire, but his armor was undamaged. Like water droplets trying to break a rock open in two. Lifting his spear, Stolas charged and delivered a stab into the gut of one of the owl demons on his mother-in-law's payroll. Lifting him up, Stolas then tossed the sack of meat and feathers aside before flaring out his wings. Small portals of purple energy appeared. From them, multiple glowing daggers of ethereal energy found their way into the other shooters, who became pincushions before they all exploded in a gory mess.
He was about to move on when he suddenly sensed something coming from the wall behind him and jumped back just as a burst of bright white energy caused the wall to crumble. Raising an eyebrow, Stolas found himself face to face with Alexander wielding his Fallen father's Angel Blade, Blue Sky, which was pulsing with energy.
"I supposed it was only a matter of time before you before you showed up," Alexander hooted before pointing his blade at Stolas. "I take it you're here for your boy toy?"
"That and to kill you, your mother, and everyone in his building," Stolas answered.
"Fuck you, Stolas!" Alexander growled as he stepped forward. "You're a disgrace of a Goetia and a disgrace of a Demon! Screwing around with your inferiors?! Working with Angels?! It's going to be a pleasure killing you!"
Stolas snorted. "Please, Alexander. You couldn't kill me even if you were using St. Micheal's sword."
"Oh yeah?! I have the blood of my father, The Fallen Angel Malphas, coursing through my veins! I wield the mighty blade that he used in the Great War in Heaven! I am superior to you by my blood and heritage! Now prepare yourself!" Alexander proclaimed while swinging his weapon a few times in the air.
Stolas rolled his eyes before turning to shadow guards. "Leave him to me. Just kill the others."
They nodded and left, leaving the two owl demons to themselves. Alexander wasted no time in charging forward with his Angel Blade, but Stolas simply blocked the blow. Angelic and Demonic energy burst in the air with each clash between the sword and spear. Alexander tried to go for a double-handed chop from above, but Stolas flicked him back with one of his wings, cutting him in the process thanks to his armored feathers.
Alexander fell into the hall but quickly got back up to barely block a blow from Stolas, who forced him near the grand staircase. Twirling his spear, Stolas used his many years of training to attack Alexander from all directions. Stabs, slashes, and cuts from left to right and up to down caused every swing to deliver some kind of blow on the idiot. Be it a scratch on his legs or a large gash on his back, Stolas was slowly carving away at the inexperienced noble.
"Gah! Stop it, you asshole!" Alexander shouted as he tried to swipe at Stolas but missed. "Okay, take this!"
The runes on the Angel Blade began to glow as she tried to unleash a powerful explosion of white divine energy. Stolas stabbed his spear into the floor as a magical circle appeared before him and surrounded him with dark mystical energy. The celestial energy clashed with the shield for a short while before it dispersed, much to Alexander's shock.
"W-what?! But ho-OAH!" Alexander's stunned reaction gave Stolas enough time to deliver the bladeless end of his spear into his brother-in-law's gut. Coughing up blood, Alexander tried to defend himself but was blown away by a wind spell face first that cut up his face like a potato peeler.
Falling off the railing ledge, Alexander cried out in pain as he landed on the first-floor ground hard, his body bleeding and his feathers in a mess. Stolas extended his wings and rose up before gently descending. While doing so, he heard Reginald speak on the radio. "This is Reginald of Team 2. We may have found the location of where they are keeping Blitzo. All members of Team 2 head to the living room with the elevator."
Landing in front of Alexander, Stolas pointed his spear at the panting owl demon and glared. "Had enough?"
"Fuck you!" Alexander screamed as he tried to fly forward, but Stolas expanded his palm and telepathically pushed him through the wall and into the hallways.
Slowly, Stolas walked out of the hole he made and noticed Loona and Millie across the hall in stunned silence. "Loona. Millie. I believe Reginald has found a way to Blitzo. Please head over there while I deal with Alexander here?"
"Bastard! Don't you look away from me!"
Stolas sighed and quickly blocked another blow from Alexander. He kept trying to get through the prince's defenses, but he couldn't even get in a single strike. Finally, Stolas teleported behind him and knocked him into the nearby library with a slap from his wing. Fortunately for the little bitch, a few tengu were around and helped him up as Stolas calmly walked inside.
"K-Kill him!" Alexander ordered, pointing to Stolas in fear.
The tengu charged forward only to suddenly freeze in place as Stolas unleashed his demonic aura. The entire library caught on fire as the books and scrolls were lit up like tinsel. The tengu, sweating in fear, fell to their knees in horror as the impact of Stolas' power made their proud warrior spirit crumble. Alexander even looked horrified as a wet spot slowly appeared between his trembling legs.
Lifting his spear, Stolas let it levitate in the air before zooming right through each of the chests of the terrified tengu, who didn't even get a chance to scream in pain. The floor was soon drenched in blood that slowly became a lake of guts and insides as Alexander looked upon Stolas with terror.
The Prince just stared at Alexander, who slowly began to move away. Flapping his wings, Stolas whispered, "Run."
And so Alexander did with Stolas not far behind.
Much as Millie liked to have kicked the ass of one of the two noble pricks who took Blitzo as a hostage, she knew going up against a Goetia demon with an Angel Blade was not going to be an easy fight. Besides, Stolas could handle himself.
She and Loona arrived in a large living room with a grand piano as the shadow guards took spots guarding the entranceway. Near the end of the room was an elevator that Reginald was next to while a wounded and bleeding owl demon maid was trembling as he pointed a pistol in her face.
"You're sure that this is where he is?" Reginald asked, glaring at her.
"Y-yes! I swear! There are other guards there, too!" the maid shouted before crying. "P-Please let me go...I have a dau-"
Reginald shot her in the face before she could finish and nodded to another shadow guard. "Get ready to deploy down. We'll go first, followed by the rest of you."
"Yes, sir."
Turning to Millie and Loona, Reginald nodded. "Blitzo is down the dungeons below, but we don't know what cell. We'll have to search for them all. Got your teleportation crystals ready?"
Millie and Loona both showed theirs around their necks.
"Remember, the first to find Blitzo uses theirs to teleport them to the hospital. Make sure you say it clear so it can hear it to activate the spell," Reginald reminded before entering the elevator. "Now, let's go."
Millie and Loona entered along with three other shadow guards before activating the lift. The elevator closed, and they began to move down. Millie quickly checked her Remington Shotgun just as the door opened. Immediately, gunfire and magic began attacking the group, killing the shadow guards in front of her. Thinking quickly, she grabbed one of the dead bodies and charged forward, peeking out and noticing a robed owl demon firing magic blasts. With her shotgun in one hand, she pulled the trigger, releasing two shots that blew him away.
Tossing the body aside, Millie pumped her shotgun before sliding behind a nearby wall to dodge gunfire. Peaking out of the corner, she saw three more owl demons hiding behind some wooden barrels and tables with machine guns. Loona, Reginald, and one of the wounded shadow guards were firing back in the elevator, taking cover by the sides.
Just as she was about to peek away, Millie noticed a large wooden chandelier above two of the shooters and aimed for it. Firing, the object fell upon the guards, knocking them out and distracting the other, who then tried to run away. Millie drew one of her own personal knives and threw it at his leg. Her aim proved true as it dug deep into his femur and caused him to fall in agony.
Giving a thumbs up to her partners, Millie aimed her shotgun at the frightened owl. "Where is Blitzo."
"I'm not saying a thing you filthy imp who-"
BAM!
"FUCCCCKKK!" the owl demon screamed as he held his stump of a hand.
"Want to lose a foot next?" Millie asked, pumping the shotgun.
"East wing! Last door! Please don't-" His pleas were silenced by Loona shooting him in the head.
"Get him up and bring back up," Millie said as she pointed to the wounded shadow guard. "We'll go get Blitzo!"
Reginald helped the wounded shadow guard to the elevator and nodded. "We'll be back soon."
The two employees of I.M.P rushed forward, praying they weren't too late to save their boss.
