(AN: I have schoolwork to do, so expect delays on the stories. Also, thank you for mentioning that, but I'm afraid it's too late to change that. So I'm gonna have to keep Hades knowing about the other Pantheons first, can't change anything now. The other pantheons know about the Greek-Roman Pantheon, but not the Greek-Roman pantheon besides Hades, but I might make some slight changes, since I didn't mention who else knows, besides Hades thinking that Athena also knows. Zeus is a very big prick though, and in the chance that humanity has to flee the planet, Zeus will not let Poseidon and Hades' children off the planet, which is a very 'big fuck you, your children are going to die', to them.)
Getting Clothes, helping someone, and going back to Earth.
Edward's P.O.V
My uncle Alastor was taking me to Hell's version of a Hot Topic, Stylish Occult. Luckily, I still had the gas mask that Moxxie gave me. "So, why here of all places?" I asked my uncle. "Nephew, it's to help you be more comfortable when doing the chores, besides, can't have you wearing a suit when doing chores and such. The suits are only for business deals, unless you are able to fight with constricted clothing." he said. "Besides, you still need to go to school, and the best way to look better is to get new clothes." he continued
"Yeah, I do, and why are you wearing a suit then?" I asked, wondering why he wears a suit, even when he was in the house. "My clothing is custom made, so I can move around freely while also being able to do deals. I believe that the younger new sinners may call my clothing 'lit' or 'dope' if I remember correctly." he said.
After the conversation was over, we arrived to Stylish Occult. "Now then, since we are here, why not have a look around, see if you find something interesting. You might find something useful for school." he said. We both entered the building and from what I was seeing, some of the shirts reminded me of the various things back on Earth.
After a few minutes of looking around, while Alastor was looking at clothing that looks like a suit, while also being a shirt a kid would wear as well. I saw what looks to be a Hellhound when I looked around, and from what I was seeing, likely a female. "Hey asshole, the fuck you looking at." the Hellhound said after looking up from her phone. "Got to get me one of those phones." I thought.
And also from that quick remark, her personality seemed to match with her mood. She seemed to be wearing a short crop top that was grey, and had strings on it that made it look like an inverted star. She also had a choker that has spikes in it. "Currently, a person that may be able to hold a conversation." I said. "If this goes well, then I might be able to have another friend here besides Moxxie." I thought.
Loona's P.O.V.
"You sure, because you are looking like a fucking pervert to me." I said. "Hey, never said that I was looking at you that way, besides, this place is new to me." the person in front of me said. Said person was wearing a gas mask on their face, though I can tell the person in front of me is a male.
"Did… did he just deflect my insult? He now has my attention." I thought before saying "What, you into the fucking fancier shit or something.". "Nah, but I am here with my uncle, with him getting me clothes and a few items to work for some of the chores he is going to give me when I am with him, also for school as well, since I haven't finished my education." he said.
I snorted, thought "He goes to fucking school, I might ask later to see if the school had been shot at yet." and said "Yeah… My dad is also here with me, he said that he met someone, who he is fucking by the way, has a daughter and that said daughter like this place. Dunno why he thought to bring me here at all.". "Yeah well, never met mine. Mine left before I was born." he said. He then continued by saying "I guess the woman's daughter likes goth and metal, maybe rock as well. Everyone has their own tastes in what they like and don't like.".
"Who said that he was fucking a woman, and let me say, he can be a real pain in the ass." I said. I then looked back to my phone before saying "I'm not into this shit though." and then he said something that intrigued me. "Me neither, but I really need to get new clothes, just recently got here.".
"Oh, and how are things back on Earth?" I asked, and he replied with "Well, I killed some church exorcists that decided to break into my family home.". "Sheesh, no wonder that you are here, and here I thought that you were a wimp." I said. "And you're a fucking bitch." he said.
I narrowed my eyes and said "Oh really?" and all he said was "Yep.". I grinned and said "Names Loona." and he replied with "Edward.". After a few seconds of silence, I asked "So what's your preference on this shit, if you know what the latest fashion is back on Earth.".
"Currently two thousand and five, if you are wondering about your unasked question. And don't really know, I just bought what seemed to fit at the local stores, such as Walmart, Hot Topic, Target, and Spencer's." he said. "Hot topic and Spencer's? Must be an Earth thing. Though they have me intrigued. I can respect him a little due to the insults though. Might like Hot Topic and Spencer's, if I am able to go on a mission with the others." I thought.
Back to Edward's P.O.V.
After that bit of giving each other's names, we seemed to connect a bit. But we did help each other pick out clothes. I suggested some clothes that are similar to the ones she is wearing while she picked a few clothes that had some demonized anime characters on it, even a demonized Pickle Rick. She also got me some reinforced gloves as well.
I then heard someone say something, looked around, and saw who it was, an imp, and the guy was shorter than Loona. "That's my father… see you later, and if you want to have somebody killed, give the I.M.P a call." she said before leaving.
"Huh, she works for the I.M.P, so that's two people, but judging by the imp, that's probably another person working for I.M.P… I might have an idea on who to ask them to kill, if it comes to it, but I will hold it off later, luckily that it's the weekend right now, otherwise, I might've had an absence at school." I thought. The gloves will be useful when I use my scythe and the Exorcist weapon, which I still have no idea on how it even works.
After a few more minutes of checking around, I added in a new jacket, more gloves in case the first reinforced gloves get torn, and then went to Alastor, who seemed to get me a mechanical pencil, which seems to not run out of lead, which I'm going to use, as well as a few other items, such as a mini radio that was on sale.
"So, got what you needed Edward? If so, then we must check out." he said, and I nodded. While we were checking out, the news on the T.V. said 'Breaking News!'.
"Hi, I'm Katie Killjoy," "And I'm Tom Trench." "And welcome to another part of 666 News, today, we have reports that there is a dead Exorcist Angel, you heard me right, a DEAD Exorcist Angel." the reporters said and I froze. "Ah shit, they found the body." I thought.
"We will report la- wait, what do you mean we can't say anything else… oh… Sorry, but we can't tell you about this, our Lord Lucifer won't allow it." Katie Killjoy said. "Oh I'm going to thank him for doing that, wonder if he plays video games? If he does, well… Wonder if he plays Doom, wait, this is Hell… holy shit, I just realized that he exists." I thought, and having an existential crisis before I saw Alastor handing me the bags before we got to walking again.
Time skip…
We arrived back home, and while I put the bags in a suitcase, in case I'm going back to Earth tomorrow, Alastor decided to hand me something, a book that… "Holy shit, I get to come here back to hell whenever I want." I thought. "My dear, I thought this might be useful, and don't worry, I have another one, the one I gave you was the spare, though with added notes as well and which ones not to use." Alastor said before preparing something.
"This will take a while to prepare, so why not explore the surrounding area, it will be good for you to familiarize yourself with the area." he continued. "Well, let me get these things in the suitcase first, and I will probably ask later on how to do your… radio static while talking." I said, and he grinned. "Oh, finally, someone who wants to learn how to do that, I've been wanting to teach it to someone." he said.
"Well, looks like it's now packed, might as well go outside now, since any disturbances will probably mess the thing up, right?" I asked and he said "Right you are, come back in about… twenty or twenty-five minutes, it's been a while since I've used this.". "Well," I said while setting my phone for twenty-two minutes and thirty seconds, "See you in a few then." and I left the house, with the gas mask on.
After about five minutes of walking I saw a male sinner who was harassing what seemed to be another sinner, and the sinner seemed to be female. "What is my luck?" I thought to myself before grabbing my scythe, and before saying something, I saw something on the scythe, not the Exorcist weapon, the one Mr. Brunner threw at me. "What the…" I said, see a small instructions manual on it. I looked at it for a few seconds, and saw that it can change modes. "Sword mode?" I mumbled to myself and then suddenly, the scythe turned into a sword. "Well, that is very damn useful." I thought to myself before seeing the harasser bring out a knife.
"Damnit, waited for too long, welp, might as well jump in now." I thought before rushing toward them and swinging my scythe turned sword at the first sinner. It seemed to harm him very badly, and I said "You okay?" to the female sinner. "Yeah, thanks." she said.
"Want to do the honors or should I do it?" I asked before the female sinner seemed to think for a minute before grabbing a Tommy Gun out of nowhere. "Where in the fuck did she grab that?" I thought to myself before seeing her use said gun on the male sinner, killing him. "Well, thanks for that." she said, and she seemed to be inching closer to my personal space. "Well, if you want to know, the name's Edward Nightingale." I said.
The female sinner then began thinking again and said "Molly, my name is Molly.", "Well Molly," I said, seeing that no one else was around, "What are you doing around here, haven't seen you around here before." I continued. "You really want to know that, well, I'm going off the grid for a while and…" and when she was talking, my instincts flared up a bit, and I narrowed my eyes when I saw someone with a sniper rifle on top of a building.
"Molly, there's a sniper." I said, interrupting her, and she then saw where I was looking at and saw the sniper as well. "We need to get down, NOW!" I said, hearing the sniper be shot. We both dodged, but Molly wasn't as lucky, as the bullet hit her near her torso. "Gagh, choke on a fat dick you son of a bitch." Molly said, and I was surprised by her choice of words.
We continued dodging and I said "That's it fucker." and grabbed the Exorcist weapon on me, and it changed into a gun, a SCAR-L to be exact. "No time for questioning this right now, this fucker is down." I thought before pressing the trigger. And what happened was a FUCKING LASER shooting out of the barrel of the gun, and it decimated the area where the person was at.
"Pretty sure he is fucking dead." I said after a few seconds of stunned silence. I then saw Molly drop down and said "Damnit, motherfucker got me good.", "Hang on, I'm going to get you to my uncle's house, pretty sure he knows what to do." I said, while grabbing Molly and going as fast as I could, and after about four minutes, we got to Alastor's house and I said "Uncle, need some help here.".
"Ah, Edward, you arrived, and no worries, put her in one of the unused rooms, I'll show you where." he said before helping me with Molly and showing me where one of the unused rooms was. Once we got there, he used his demonic powers to get a table in the room.
"Put her here, I'll get the things needed." he said before leaving the room quickly and coming back after I put her where Alastor said to put her. "Got the things, make sure to not interrupt me. If this goes wrong, well, you'll not like the results." he said before chanting a spell and creating symbols out of thin air. After a few seconds, he said "Now that's done, use this knife and cut the palm of your hand.".
I did what he asked, but had a feeling that he was doing something that will probably trouble me more than it should. I then saw my blood go out of where I used the knife at, and it floated to where Molly was wounded at. After a few seconds, a blinding light had occurred and I had to close my eyes.
After the light dissipated, I saw that Molly was now fine but Alastor was chuckling. "I'm… alright?" Molly said after waking up. "Thought it killed me." she continued. "Uncle, what did you do?" I asked. "My dear nephew, you now have someone that is more of a loyal friend now due to the ritual." he said.
…
…
…
"You did WHAT!?" I said, and Alastor was laughing. Then Molly grabbed me and put me between her breasts while Alastor was still fucking laughing.
Time skip…
I got what I needed to know from Alastor, once he finally stopped laughing, and from what he said, the ritual was binding and there is no way out of it, if she dies, I'm perfectly fine, but if I die, she dies with me.
"Why did you do this, just… why?" I asked, and all he said was "I needed entertainment, besides, I'm heading out in a few, so you might as well get moving back to Earth.". "Oh, forgot about that, is the portal ready?" I asked and he nodded. "Well then, I have a feeling that Molly might want to go with me, any idea if she has to go back to, well, back here?" I asked, and he just said "No, there's no time limit, and it's also how those hauntings started, but we will need to disguise her, since she will stick out in the open.".
Molly was asleep on the table while we we're talking, and I figured we might have time and said "So, how do I do the radio static? You did say you wanted to teach it to someone." I said, and Alastor just grabbed one of the spare books he had and gave it to me. "This will help you, there's a spell in it to have you talk with radio static, and I have a lot of spares, I didn't use the spell due to me getting the radio static when I expired back on Earth." he said.
"So, do I also have to grab things for her as well, or use the old clothing back on Earth for her to use?" I asked, and Alastor seemed to think for a moment before chanting something to make copies of the clothing we bought and changed them so it could fit Molly. "Well that's useful." I said before Molly woke up, grabbed me, and put her breasts over my head.
"Why, just… why?" I thought to myself while Alastor was laughing again. "Molly," I said, and she looked at me, "We're going back to Earth, and I'm pretty sure you will follow, so don't try to break anything… and also, use a disguise while we are there." I continued.
Molly seemed to be having a blue screen moment, and after the moment, she hugged me, saying "I haven't seen Earth in years, and… I will abide by a disguise.". "Well then, do you know what to do for your human disguise?" Alastor asked and she nodded, saying "I know how to do a human disguise, and it's going to be similar to when I used to be human.".
Time skip again…
Well, I saw what Molly's human disguise is, and it seems to be okay at the moment. "Any idea on how long this'll hold?" I asked and she said "It can be done at will, but with the amount of time that has passed while I was here, I might need to learn what has happened.".
"Well then, Uncle, time for us to go back to Earth." I said, and he nodded before snapping his fingers to open a portal. "Make sure to come back on Saturday, I'll have some chores for you to do." he said, and we went through the portal.
Meanwhile, back on Earth…
Acorn's P.O.V.
I was looking at Edward's house through the window and suddenly saw an orange ring open, and saw two people coming out of it. "Wait, is that…" I thought before seeing Edward come out of the portal and another person with him, and when I sniffed, I smelt the scent of something not human, nor monster, not even a demigod's scent on her.
"I need to report this to Chiron, he might know what to do, but this'll require more research before reporting it." I thought before writing in the book I had, which had a list of things that needed to be said to Chiron, but will require more research before reporting it, such as the black vehicle that has three letters on it, S.C.P, a place where people come into the building, and don't come back out, which she has taken to calling it the Back Rooms, due to some videos appearing on the Internet, which said videos belonged to the people going missing, and many other things. "Still need to figure out that machine that looks exactly like Edward." I thought, since I saw it come through a portal and go into another one.
To be continued…
(AN: I had to do school work a few days ago and finally watched the new Ghostbusters Movie today, which is Ghostbusters Afterlife, won't spoil it though, also, you like the references at Acorn's P.O.V.? They will be in the story, but references until said otherwise, but for the machine Edward, think of either Metal Sonic or Mecha Sonic, and put in the theory that Sonic is Metal Sonic. Anyways, this is Infinite0001 signing off for now.)
