Now for a one-on-one talk between Lincoln and some folks and some stuff coming for either next month or soon to come, and some new tricks, trades and trinkets that would help them for more crazy adventures and future chapters. Enjoy reading this folks!
Helluva Loud Adventures.
(March 26, I.M.P Headquarters.)
The rest of the building looks as if it's getting some cleaning done and Delilah Silver has finished it all and is now taking a break in the break room after one who, god fucking day of cleaning around the place.
Moxxie, Millie and Lucy are busy with cleaning the large wyvern they have, and Blitzo and Loona are discussing some stuff in the meeting room and what they're discussing is the terms of the driver's license for a certain 16-year old adopted daughter of the hellhound.
Lincoln is in the shooting room, with a wrench nearby and some tools, he goes to work on his claws and checks on them if they work. "Alright, time to see if this can handle right."
He puts on his right glove and he aims at the target and it fires out four of the claws and they come with a hardened hell forged chains and act as grappling hooks. This makes him smile. "Works like a fucking charm."
"Dang right, bro." the boy then sees his big sister, Luna. "Cool modifications, makes the claws feel more like a potentially useful all-around jack-of-all-trades kinda tool."
Lincoln removes the glove. "Thanks sis. I'm actually planning to add some more enhancements, and thanks to Uncle Moxxie, I know how to tinker with them, besides the simple injectors they are armed with and they're retractable mechanisms, I think I can add some more stuff to the claws."
"I could light them on fire, use them as grappling hooks, shoot them out like shuriken or ninja stars and have them magnetize back or make them longer so I can literally slash the targets down, and yet I will always have my knife with me and my pistol."
Luna sits next to him. "Does sound pretty chill, so you stoked for tomorrow when we hit the beach with the others?"
Lincoln nods. "I am. We could all use some time off from this, and we're also gonna be bringing Delilah with us, she'll love to have some relaxation time after working alongside the company, and I also need to calm my mind and try to pull myself together before the big thing comes up for Sunday."
Luna nods. "Yeah, I heard and know, just like the others. You're gonna go and announce where Lori is and how she's been doing. I get ya bro and I know that some folks will understand and wanna see Lori changed for the better, heck even I wanna see that happen."
"Because now I can see as you do, that even though she said some harsh things to us, and was part of the damned luck fiasco from last year. She's changed and she's going to do whatever she can to maintain her sanity from long ago, but that part may have passed and she's trying to pick up the pieces and make up for mistakes."
Lincoln then asks. "Do you trust her?"
Luna sighs. "Not entirely, I mean I guess I can sorta forgive her, but the toad to trust is another thing and you know that as much as I do."
Lincoln nods. "The rest of Royal Woods has to know and this would lead to me telling them of the conflict I had, with the two members of the V Warlord system, and how much pain we had to endure to when we all had that fucked up fight."
"Yeah, that was messed up, but sacrifices were made in order to make sure that damned porn studio went down in smokes" said Luna. "You need to try and ease up on the speech and make sure the folks don't know about this damned porn studio or this is gonna light up some issues in the town itself."
"As if we don't need any more trouble to ignite" said Lincoln. He then puts his tools down. "We still got that damned priest who wants to take us away from the family and sure to shit I am not gonna let him mess with us, otherwise he's dead to me."
"The dumbass son of a bitch is already dead to me" replied Luna with a stern look. "He's so fucking annoying, and what I would do to just skewer his head and toss it into Lucifer's River of Lava."
"Same" replied Lincoln. "But the big announcement to letting the town know about Lori, that's not the hard part, the hard part is seeing how the Wilkinson's couple and Lana will react with what Lola has chosen."
Luna nods. "Yeah, I recall you telling us that one. Lola wants to come clean and make her way to the Hazbin Hotel and change for the better, never really thought Lola would wish for that to happen when she came here and so glad she fucked off the bitch daughter of that damned headmistress."
"Lola made the choice and we need to accept it, and we all know the couple who fostered her will be chill with it too, but Lana will be a hard cookie to deal with and sure to hell she's gonna be very upset and that there will be tons of tears when it does come to that."
"Yeah, I know" replied Lincoln, he then feels bad for the way things had to be when Lola was killed. "You know, things would've been a whole lot better if Lola and Lana weren't separated, and possibly they both would've been adopted by the folks who would've fostered them."
Luna feels the same way. "But things happen, things that we can't foresee or even predict and we gotta try and learn to deal with those said issues and make sure that we can look forward to what else is to come. Lola and Lana's fate, that was all inevitable and we're off the road to making that patched up."
Lincoln then looks to his phone. "I gotta tell everyone in Royal Woods when Sunday hits, and then I have to bring Lola to speak with those she cared for on the last day of March, which is gonna be harder than telling the folks of town."
Luna pulls her little brother close to her. "We all need to try and make up for shit that went down the toilet real fast, and we all need to try and figure out some shit that happens. Let's not linger too much on the stuff that could give us issues, the past is the past, let's just look forward to what happens next and hope nothing else goes wrong."
The duo stay like this, as Lincoln hugs Luna and she returns the embrace. They both know that tons of shitty stuff is gonna be happening, and they need to be ready for all of it.
(Later.)
Luna walks out of the shooting room and she sees her mom and Blitzo talking, and then they go towards Luna. "What the heck is going on? What the heck were you two talking about earlier?"
Loon and Blitzo look to each other and then towards Luna. "Lunes, this is for you." Loona hands her daughter a book on driving, and this makes her wide eyed and look to the two of them.
Blitzo grins. "That's right Lulu. You're gonna be taking some driving lessons! But before you can honk on the wheel, you gotta do the whole bullshit written exam and all that…."
Luna passes out from this, and Loona goes to check on her and so does Lincoln who comes out hearing the commotion. Blitzo is surprised from this. "Huh, I didn't think she'd faint." He then takes a photo of this.
(Hazbin Hotel.)
Charlie and Vaggie are both surprised from what was heard and what was made and done, and they see the bags of one of their patients has been packed up and ready for move. They look to that said patient who is known as Maya Mayberry, the former teacher when she was alive and now a teacher in the Royal Woods Elementary School.
Niffty is busy racing back and forth with the luggage and same with Michelle Lewis, and Husk who doesn't like doing this shit. Leni and Lori are also helping out too.
The duo go towards the sinner. "Wow. Never have we ever seen the day when one of our sinners…. Passed, and now instead of ascending to be in heaven, you chose something else" replied Charlie.
Mayberry nods. "Well, I know when to calm my nerves and be at peace with the sins I have made. But, the heavens is no place for someone like me, sure I have been nice, but I have sinned and made mistakes, and even though they seem redeemed after passing all of your tests, I am dang proud to call myself a citizen of Royal Woods, the first demonic citizen."
Vaggie chuckles. "Mayberry, you are the first ever sinner to be passed from her patient mark here in the hotel, and… Fuck, this is so hard to even say. You passed, and I thought someone here besides you would've done that shit."
Mayberry nods. "Yeah, same here. Well, I should get going now, I already have a place to stay in Royal Woods, and I have my own plans on how I can live my life, well my long eternal life. I think."
"That is slightly mistaken my dear." They all see Alastor walk towards them. "As you should know that sinners are most likely to live longer since the aging process is no longer adequate to the systems, but demons born of hell are capable of aging, just really, slow."
"But, should either demon or sinner be on earth for a long time, chances they will age a bit and soon, age as humans do. Which is rare, and you have only been a sinner for more than a year since you ended up in this damned, forsaken land we call home, and by the time you linger one year on earth, then you age normally as the mortals do."
This was information none of them saw coming. "Well, at least she can hang out more with some of her friends in town" said Leni.
"We're gonna miss having you around Mayberry" said Lori. "We know you're life back on earth is gonna be something worth enjoying."
"Thanks, Lori and I do hope you can redeem yourself and find a new path when you finish here too" said Mayberry. She then grabs her bags and then Niffty helps, and Alastor opens the portal to earth.
Mayberry looks back to the others, and even the other patients and guests and even Angel Dust sees the sinner and smiles as he smokes and waves to her.
Mayberry smiles to all of them. "Farewell everyone, and I know I will see some of you soon, and to those who wish to seek redemption. I hope you guys can make the cut and ascend from the sins of the past."
She then walks through the portal and Niffty hauls all the luggage through the portal and then comes back to the hotel, in which Alastor closes the portal.
The others then go back to what they were doing and Charlie sheds a tear from what has happened, and then Vaggie and Leni go over and comfort her.
Lori sighs and walks back to her room. 'When Lincoln makes that announcement, then that means the town knows that I'm here and seeking redemption and that also means they might be waiting for when I return to Royal Woods. I have a lot of shit to think about before I can restart my life from scratch.'
Alastor then walks back to his quarters. 'She didn't fail, well that was less than entertaining, but I know for sure that some of these heathens won't cut into the bill and possibly fail as they try and I will be there watching that all go down.'
(Royal Woods.)
Mayberry has her stuff being hauled into the home she's gonna be staying in and she smiles as she looks onto it. "Well, this is it Mara Mayberry, a new life here on earth in this town who welcomes those who are less than normal, I'm gonna like it here."
She then sees the house across the street, which is Mr. Grouses' home and next to the cantankerous elder man's house is the home that was once loud and now bears the name of I.M.P.
Mayberry then looks to her notes. 'Right moving in done, and soon the next phase of my plan. Luan.'
To be continued folks!
A/N: We got the big announcement on Sunday, we got Lola talking with Lana and the couple who fostered her for the last day of March, we got Luna ready for her driver's license and then we have Mayberry going to reside in Royal Woods now, but tomorrow is the day at the beach again for them. We got a shit ton of stuff coming fuckers! Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
Hey Bagnight, you know what is gonna happen soon.
Date made: 3/6/21.
