Greed Ring of Hell. The Next Day
The song playing through Snow's earpieces is One Night in Tokyo by Beast In Black
The hustle and bustle of cars around Hell in its Greed ring was the backdrop for one demon seen walking towards a building that contained offices. For anyone wondering who this demon is. This is a recently descended Eric Snow. He'd come to seek out an imp-run assassination company to work for after seeing them on the news in the bar he'd just come from.
With the sounds of Beast in Black blaring within Snow's ears. He is seen pulling into a parking lot outside of an office block on his built from scrap Harley Davidson. This was where the recently fallen male had to go to get the position that had been advertised in the Greed Circle. Shutting off the bike's engine with his keys, and turning off his earpieces, he climbs off of the bike with his keys in hand. Soon, he would find he wasn't the only one looking to get the job with I.M.P.
Inside The Office Building
Getting the elevator up to the floor where I.M.P. was based. The guy noticed he was one of eight candidates answering the advertisement put out by the assassins. Standing against the wall while waiting to be seen by the team. He decides to scope out the other demons that were here to join the imps.
He noticed one imp was constantly flicking her lighter on and off whilst holding a crazed look in her eyes. When she noticed Snow was holding his gaze for too long. She just stared at Snow back before he looked away in awkwardness.
The next one Snow noticed held a gun in his hand. He was consistently checking the ammunition in his revolver before closing the barrel. Rinse and repeat.
The demon next to the gun-carrying demon held a flail in her hands. Though she looked manly. Eric could tell they'd gone through gender reassignment surgery whilst in Hell. Meaning, he wasn't going to comment unless she spoke to him. Luckily, she didn't.
The other five demons of varying sizes had weapons ranging from grenades to medieval crossbows. To some extent. It made Snow feel a little inadequate for not bringing a deadly weapon with him. All he had on him was the shotgun that needed holy rounds to work. He didn't have a clue how he could procure holy slugs for the gun since he was only a day removed from landing in Hell. But, he would find a way eventually.
Later
Eric didn't know how long he was sitting in the lobby. He soon knew the moment the P.A. system sounded.
"Next candidate."
Since Snow was the only one there. He stood with a stretch to pop some joints in his body before shaking himself loose. With how long he'd been asleep in his chair. He was amazed he hadn't been robbed while he was out cold. Seeing the other demons that had failed to get a job with the company, well, made Snow think that it was a tough process to get a job here. Perfect.
I.M.P. Reception Desk
Walking up to the front desk with a renewed confidence that he kept under wraps. The female hound speaks up nonchalantly.
"Just head through the door to the boardroom. Blitz will evaluate you."
"Okay, Loona."
Loona paused for a split second while she was on her phone. Looking out of the corner of her eye. She soon turned fully when she realised who had answered her. Standing with a fluster, she says in a rare moment of weakness that Snow found amusing.
"Snow!? I didn't realise you were one of the applicants!"
Eric nods with a smirk to Loona's stammered reaction. Getting her bearings long enough to act uninterested again. The female says with her walls back up in position.
"Whatever. Just head through the door in front of you and ask for Blitz. As stated…"
"He'll be the one evaluating me. Gotcha."
Loona smiles at Snow knowing what she was going to say before walking towards the door he was told to walk through.
Board Room
"Name?"
"Eric Snow."
Those were the first words spoken between the imp and the much taller demon who sat across from each other in the boardroom. Blitzo didn't reckon much with the demon before him. His cynicism was well known to others. But, Snow knew that, if he wanted this job, he had to impress the imp before him. After reading Snow's file. Blitzo threw the file away before holding his hand out for Snow to shake.
"You're hired."
The look of surprise on Snow's face was worth a million words. Once the surprise wore off. He shook his new boss's hand without hesitation. Something Blitzo was happy to explain.
"You helped my Looney when some creeps tried to take advantage of her yesterday. So, all I have to say is this. Welcome to the family, Snow."
Eric smirks. He had to find a way to thank I.M.P.'s receptionist somehow when he would, eventually, leave for his motel room tonight. After a pat on the back from Blitzo. The imp says happily.
"You'll find my employees are a well-knit group that I treat like family. Bonus for you, my Looney told me about how you single-handedly, I might add, took out the asshole who tried to grab her. She rarely warms up to someone so easily."
Eric nods. Now, he needed to thank Loona somehow for the recommendation. However, Blitzo asked the one question Snow was waiting for.
"How do you feel about starting today?"
This causes Eric to smirk and respond.
"It would be my pleasure, sir."
Blitzo couldn't be happier. So, calling Loona into the boardroom and, upon her entrance into the room, Blitzo asks.
"Looney. Could you show our newest employee to the small arms room? He needs to be properly equipped if he wants to take on jobs for us."
"Ugh, fine Blitz. Not like I was doing anything important anyway."
This was when Snow spoke up after Loona.
"What's wrong, sweet tail? It's almost like you don't want me here."
Loona felt a light tint of pink hit her cheeks at the flirtatious comment her way. Shaking her head to keep the comment at bay, and to hide the fluster on her cheeks, she says snarkily.
"Stop making this weird asshole. Just, follow me."
Eric laughs a little at the hound's attempt to act tough. Following Loona out of the door. The two knew they could talk normally without Blitzo hovering over the two while they walked.
Corridor Leading Towards The Armoury.
As the two walked casually towards the small arms room Blitzo mentioned. Eric couldn't help but look at the pictures hung on the wall around him. Though he'd only been in Hell since yesterday. He was impressed by how tight-knit the company was. Just as Blitzo had mentioned.
His thoughts are interrupted the minute Loona speaks up beside him.
"Did you manage to find a place to stay last night, Snow?"
Eric nods before replying.
"I found a motel six in another part of the Greed Ring. Though it's six dollars a night. I think I can manage."
Loona nods before Snow continued.
"What about you, Loona? What do you normally do when you aren't working the phones?"
"I just sit on my phone and try to ignore Blitz's idiotic ideas while laughing at Moxxie being a stick in the mud. Besides those two things. I don't do much besides going to parties and drinking myself into oblivion."
Eric chuckles at the response he received from the female. Something Loona caught onto as she gets a little defensive.
"Something funny asshole?"
This was where Snow put his hands up while keeping a small smile on his face when he responds.
"Sorry. I only chuckled because it almost sounded like how I was on Earth. Only, the parties I attended had alcohol, drugs, guns and hookers involved."
Loona was knocked for six. She had no idea the guy beside her was a party animal. When she first saw him yesterday. He looked like someone who didn't know their way around. She never pegged him for someone who could party with the best of them. Then again, she remembered what happened to the demon who tried to grab her. Eric had moved so quickly to point that she had no time to process the demon getting his shit kicked in by the newly arrived Snow.
Arriving at their destination. Loona found herself with a newfound respect for the demon beside her the moment they entered the room.
Small Arms Room
Entering the door and, telling the male she had entered the room with to stand by the desk. Loona feels around behind the bookcase in the room. Upon finding the book she was looking for. She opens the secret door that had the weapons Blitzo had kept under lock and key for the company.
Whistling to show he was impressed by the small armoury. Eric allows Loona to search for something the new employee could use as his company-issued weapon or weapons. With a noise of happiness at finding what she was looking for when she opened a secret compartment that contained two handguns. She speaks to the male once she turns and holds the two guns out for him to take.
"These two, are called Mistress and Persephone. These guns had been collecting dust for a while now. Well, they'd been collecting dust since Blitz bought them from Wally last year."
Eric nods. Taking the firearms and weighing them up in his hands. He can feel the heavy steel from the guns he held. But, they don't feel too heavy when he aims them away from Loona whilst trying them out.
"How do they feel?"
Eric is looking down at the sights of the weapons when Loona asked him about the guns. He made one more observation before placing them down on the desk. He says coolly.
"I think I could get used to these little ladies. I'll take 'em."
Loona nods with a smirk at Snow's answer. She soon holds out the holster for the male to take. Taking the leather belt with the gun holsters on it. He says happily.
"I think I can get used to this."
Placing the guns within the leather holsters. And, buckling up the holsters to his belt. A scream of fury soon breaks the two's thought tracks. Causing them to rush out of the small arms office in a hurry.
Boardroom
"Damn it, Moxxie! I told you not to interrupt me while I was with a client!"
"Well, sir. I only came into the room to tell you they didn't have the coffee you requested at the cafe. So, we had to get you decaf instead."
As Blitzo groaned in annoyance at Moxxie. That was when the door was kicked off of its hinges by Loona while Snow brought up the rear with his guns raised. Thinking, the company was under attack by an outside threat. Unfortunately, Moxxie didn't get the memo about a new employee joining the company. So, you can imagine the look of horror on his face when Snow had both of his guns placed against Moxxie's face.
"I rushed back with Loona as soon as I could! What the hell is going on, sir?"
This was when Blitzo walked over to Snow and put a hand on his two hands that held his guns to tell him to hold his fire before explaining.
"Easy tiger. I was just disagreeing with one of your workmates."
Moxxie was just as surprised to hear this demon call Blitzo his boss. It was even more hilarious the minute Millie walked into the room with three cups of coffee for the three imps and a boba tea for Loona when she clapped her eyes onto the tall demon in the room.
"Well, aye'll be. You must be the new arrival."
Eric had no time to enquire about the tiny imp woman before he nearly had his arm ripped off with the handshake he received from the excitable imp. Luckily, Moxxie was on hand to pull his wife gently off of Snow before Blitzo responded to his employee.
"This guy, Millie, is Snow. He's our newest member that saved my dear, sweet Looney from some jackass yesterday."
"He didn't save me. He was just making sure the bastard didn't try anything funny Blitz."
Even Snow nodded in response to Loona's answer to their boss. Causing Blitzo to respond with.
"No need to be modest Looney. I'm just happy someone else is looking out for you when I can't."
The hound never thought of it like that. But, before she could voice her thoughts. Eric was being questioned by Millie about himself.
"What was life like up on Earth for you? How did your cute butt end up down here?"
"Millie!"
"What? ah'm curious Moxxie." after saying this, she turns to face Snow again before continuing. "So, stud. How did you end up in Hell?"
Eric chuckles nervously at how close the male imp's wife was in his immediate proximity before answering.
"I committed the three cardinal sins while I was alive. Lying, cheating and stealing. I also committed four hundred and thirty-six murders, tax evasion and cheating on my many female companions whilst I was alive. That was before my wife shot me in the head. Condemning me to this place for the rest of my undead life."
Millie hung onto every word while leaning in closer from her spot in her chair. Causing Moxxie to speak up after watching his starstruck wife try to get closer.
"So, you were a scumbag on Earth?"
Eric was glad Moxxie spoke up before replying.
"Pretty much, yeah."
Loona was even more surprised by the male that, now, had taken a seat at the boardroom table. He had experience in killing people?! This she had to continue listening to. Luckily, Moxxie was the first to get the ball rolling for the hellhound to find out more.
"And, pray tell Snow, who was the majority gender you killed before you, yourself was shot dead?"
"Mainly men and women who crossed me. Never an innocent, or children. I may have been a psychopath on Earth. But, even I had some class when it came to those I'd murdered."
Now, Blitzo was listening in with stars in his eyes. He'd hired a guy who used to go on murdering sprees for fun? The imp had certainly struck gold this time with the new acquisition before him. Once the sheen had gone from Snow's storytelling. That was when Blitzo announced to the room.
"Okay, now the introductions are out of the way. We can get started on why we're here!"
Taking their seats at the boardroom table. Blitzo made sure everyone was seated before beginning his slideshow. The moment two familiar faces appeared on the screen. Eric almost shot the screen in anger whilst Blitzo explained the job.
"Penelope Snow and Murphy Brooks. Our newest client was screwed over bad by these two while she was on Earth. She'd come here looking to hire us to take these two out after Murphy hung her from a lamp post in times square. All while looking for her dad. Whoever he is."
"It just had to be those two."
All eyes were on Snow now while he was seething in his seat. Standing up and making his way to the front where Blitzo was standing. He explained the whole shebang to his new colleagues.
"Penelope Snow. My bitch of an ex-wife I'd been married to for two painful years. She was my accomplice in the murders I committed against my enemies. She is the reason you see a bullet-shaped scar on my forehead."
Hearing Snow's angered rant. Loona looked up from her phone to see the two they'd been charged with killing. It didn't take her long to put the pieces together about why Snow was pissed off by the sight of the two. Her thoughts were helped along the moment Blitzo asked.
"Well, don't leave us hanging. What do you know about the male, Murphy Brookes?"
Blitzo's answer came in the form of a bullet through the screen. Perfectly aimed between the picture of the male's eyes. Leaving all four members of I.M.P. speechless before he spoke.
"That bastard was my bodyguard. He betrayed me when I needed him most during my run as a drug baron. A deal went south and, he got my wife to shoot me when I least suspected it. I should've known he was fucking her behind my back all this time."
Calming slightly when he realised he was still in the meeting with his colleagues. Eric retakes his seat beside Moxxie while Blitzo continued where Snow left off.
"Okay. My newest employee's bloodlust aside. Everybody, get your shit together. We're leaving now!"
Eric didn't need to be told twice. Waiting on Loona to open the portal. Blitzo could tell Snow was chomping at the bit to get back up to Earth to exact his revenge.
Somewhere in The Human World
Outside of a House
Stepping out of the portal. We see the I.M.P. team scouting out the targets they'd been sent to kill. We see the four of them positioned outside of the said building. Once again, Loona was on book duty for the three imps and the demon that was employed by the imps. Their target. Well, it tied into their newest employee.
"We need to go in with tact. This Penelope and Murphy could have all sorts of fucked up tricks up their sleeves."
Blitzo stated about the two the imp team of assassins were sent to kill by their newest client. Something Snow had all the more been happy to take part in. His reason. Well. He stated his reason when his voice sounded over the comms to inform his boss of what they would be facing.
"They have guard dogs and two hundred guards stationed in all corners of my old estate."
This was heavily noted by Moxxie and Millie. Blitzo noticed the male was ready to get his hands on his former flame and bodyguard. Leading to him responding to Snow.
"Calm down, Snow. You're going to blow our cover if these two see what we are about to do to them."
No noise was heard through the comms after Blitzo says this. Much to the team's dismay. Eric had gone radio silent. Which, was enough for Blitz, Millie and Moxxie to move in and begin killing. Only, there were no guards to be seen thanks to Snow turning into the terminator on their asses.
In The House
Using his new demon powers to conceal himself in the shadows on the wall. Eric was concealed on the back wall when he heard his panicked bodyguard try to call on the security team. Preparing his combat knife. Eric was going to make sure Murphy suffered before killing him.
"I want all security teams on high alert. An intruder that looks like Eric Snow has entered the premises with three freaks!"
That was Murray's last words before a throwing knife found the phone pinned to the wall. The owner of said knife chose then to jump out of the shadows and come at his killer with an unparalleled fury coming over him.
Song Play: Evil Never Sleeps by Above Only (Snow Vs Murray)
Murray had no time to breathe with the offence that was coming at him from all angles from the male that was trying to swipe away at the former bodyguard he was hunting down inside the large living area. Anything that wasn't nailed down. Eric was using it to its full effect against his killer.
"Times up Murray!"
Murray did manage to catch a breather thanks to a letter knife he had seen knocked onto the floor while trying to gain some ground against Snow. Grabbing the knife out of his attacker's field of vision. And, with one swift swing. Murray drove the knife into the vengeful male's ribcage before kicking off the now-wounded male into the wall.
"You should have stayed dead, Eric! Just like your little girl. Bitch was getting too nosy for her good. Her screams before she went limp were so fucking satisfying when I silenced her by hanging!"
Eric's eyes widened in fury. Murray had killed his only daughter! Now he was pissed. But, there was one issue. He couldn't respond due to the hand wrapped tightly around his throat. He was now at the mercy of the man who used to protect him. Glass tables were the next to be shattered thanks to Murray choke-slamming the male through both of them with scary strength. Not even Blitzo and Millie could stop the onslaught of the now-angered, male that was the size of a house. No matter how much they tried. Add on the fact that Murray had shouted to the woman to call the guards in. If only she heard Snow, with enough strength in his voice, shouting down his earpiece to the hellhound outside.
Outside
"Loona, TAKE THE FUCKING SHOT!"
Taking off her earpiece. The hellhound didn't need to be told twice by Snow. With her bolt action Lee Enfield rifle at the ready. And, her sights set on the guards that were now pouring in to kill the three imps and the male within the building.
"Come to momma."
Well, Loona did have her aim set on Penelope fighting her adopted dad and Millie. Until she saw Snow about to bite the dust due to a hot iron poker that had just knocked him clean out and had caved his head in almost repeatedly.
"Damn it."
Like an uncontrollable storm had been summoned from Thor's hammer Mjolnir. Back-up had arrived in the form of Moxxie charging the security and Penelope that had overwhelmed Blitz and Millie with guns in hand the moment he jumped the fence on Blitzo's orders.
Within The House
"Sir, we can't hold him back. A single freak has wiped out our entire security force. We need to retreat!"
That was the moment Murray and Penelope had a look of fear in their eyes. Had Eliza come back from the dead to kill them? Murray had no time to think on this when Snow, slowly got to his feet, despite the beating he had taken. With enough strength. He jumped onto the burly bodyguard's back and drove a pair of scissors deep into the man's jugular vein. Unfortunately, Snow had been grabbed again before being smashed through the front window. Landing with a thud on broken glass and dirt below him.
He smirked painfully when he saw Moxxie slaughtering the security force protecting Murray and Penelope. He also smirked when Snow, after slowly getting back to his feet, saw Murray look out of the shattered window from the leather seat he had collapsed into. When the male saw the barrel of a bolt action rifle pointed right between his eyes from a distance. On the other end of the gun. Loona had one eye closed when she said to herself.
"Goodnight bitch!"
BANG
Uncovering his ears. A head split in half like a watermelon was all that was left of Murray's body as he slumped back into his chair. Leaving one target left. Something Snow was more than happy to tell Loona the minute she put her earpiece back in.
"Good work sweet tail. Now, find that bitch Penelope!"
Loona smirks at the compliment Snow paid her before turning serious again. Quickly reloading her rifle. The hound had her sights locked on the fleeing female trying to get into her car. Unfortunately, she missed her shot. Shooting the handle of the car door instead. Alerting Penelope to the shooter that got Murray. Smashing the car window in desperation, and jumping through the broken window, slicing her leg open in the process. The panicked female managed to hot-wire her car before the bullets rained down upon her. Pulling out of the estate at some speed like a bat out of Hell. Eric and the team were standing in the driveway as Penelope thought she'd made a clean getaway. Luckily, that's when Moxxie asks.
"How do we catch up to her now?!"
That was when Snow had an idea. Taking charge for a split second. The disguised male ran over to the large garage that was situated beside the house. Noting the door was padlocked. Eric shot the lock off before kicking the door in. The sight before him made him pause and whistle for a split second to admire the car still in pristine condition.
The car in question? His Dodge Challenger whom he called Black Beauty. Something he was quick to say while admiring his prized car.
"Hello, baby. Did you miss me?"
Outside The Garage
The roar of an engine told the imps and hellhound that their way of catching Penelope had arrived. Pulling out of the garage. And, parking beside the imps and hound. Eric shouts to the four of them with his head out of the window.
"GET IN!"
The four didn't need telling twice. The three imps jumped into the back while Loona got into the passenger seat next to Snow. With the roar of the engine, and the horsepower singing like an unholy choir. Eric tore out of the drive with a wheel spin. It wouldn't be long before they would catch up to Penelope.
Free-way
Penelope thought she was in the clear with the way she was bobbing and weaving through traffic. Somehow, she'd avoided cars in the oncoming lane whilst driving like a maniac. She drove even worse the minute she saw a black dodge challenger gaining on her. And, it was gaining fast. Causing her to shout in anger with her gun out of the window.
"FUCK YOU, ERIC!"
Eric had to duck his head to avoid the bullets firing all over the shop from the crazed woman he was chasing down. Cars, big, small and stupid. (Yes, I'm looking at you smart cars). They were being ploughed out of the way by the Dodge Challenger thundering down the road towards the car firing bullets at it.
"Mox, take out that car's back wheel!"
"HEY! You can't order Moxxie around like that! Only I can do that!"
The glare Blitzo received from Snow at his boss's complaint was one of pure murder in his eyes. Causing the imp to gulp in fear before saying quietly.
"Do as he says Mox."
Moxxie nods. Despite the hail of bullets pouring down on the challenger. Moxxie was able to keep low enough to try and aim for the tyres of Penelope's car. Once he felt he could take the shot. He calls to Snow.
"Hold her steady, Snow. I've got her in my sights!"
"Go for it, Mox!"
Snow's shout reached Moxxie's ears in time before the imp took the shot. With the ringing of the bullet firing from Moxxie's gun. The bullet struck gold in the form of the back tyre to the right. Causing the female to lose control of the car close to a building just off the freeway.
Outside The Snow Inc. Building
Managing to escape the car just as Snow's Challenger smashed into a fire hydrant outside. The woman that the imps, hound and demon were chasing, had managed to run into the building that Snow used to own when he was alive.
Inside The Building
Blood dripping from her face, and walking with a limp in her step after her car was wiped out off of the road, Penelope knew she was in dire straits the moment she saw the car crash into the fire hydrant. Needing a clever distraction to slow down her pursuers. The woman slams her fist into a box on the wall near the front desk. Activating the alarm that called down the security to come and help the woman in need. Just in time too. Because what was greeting I.M.P. and Snow was the security team raining bullets down on them the minute they entered the main atrium. Causing the three imps and Loona to hide behind a table that had been flipped over by Blitzo.
Eric, however, had slipped by undetected whilst the three imps were returning fire against the security team. He knew exactly which floor Penelope would be getting off at. It was just putting his plan into action. Knowing the male was going after his ex-wife. Loona chose to clear the path for Snow to get to the elevator to chase down Penelope. Body parts, ripped-out throats and guts spilling were left in the Hell Hound's wake. Giving Snow the thumbs up as he enters the elevator and chooses the floor he wanted. He nods in acknowledgement of Loona's efforts. He had a job to complete. And, he was going to do it in the most gruesome way possible.
91st Floor
Song Playing In The Background: Disturbia by The Cab (Instrumental)
Penelope had made it to the office where Snow's original human body had been disposed of after his death. She was oblivious to anything dangerous that was currently stalking her from the shadows. Noticing her phone was nearly dead. And, knowing she needed to make a desperate call to someone. She made a call to the police. Since she had nowhere to go since she had a vengeful, supposed-to-be-dead ex-husband on her tail. Unbeknownst to the police. Penelope won't be rescued tonight.
As the woman hangs up her phone thinking she is safe. Eric Snow chose then to strike. With one swift movement and blade in his free hand after grabbing the woman from his spot in the shadows. He grabbed the woman by the mouth to muffle her screams as he brings the knife down into her chest. Slicing deep and leaving the woman gasping for air at the sudden blood loss from the body.
Before Snow could continue to murder Penelope. The woman had the wherewithal to swing a fire extinguisher against Snow's head. Knocking the male off balance long enough for her to try and stumble to the elevator again. Unfortunately, the elevator would not work again.
Because downstairs, ninety floors down to be exact, Blitzo and Moxxie had slammed one of the security team into an electrical fuse box. Knocking out the power to the entire building. Leaving her in the office bathed in red lighting from the backup generator. Leaving a heavily bleeding Penelope at the mercy of the male she had killed in her moment of greed.
"Eric. Can't we talk about this? Just… let me live honey!"
A murderous laugh escaped Eric. Thinking he was distracted long enough for her to escape. Penelope pulled out her revolver and shot Eric five times. One of those shots was to the head. She caused Snow to collapse to the floor like a piece of wood that was left to fall. If only she realised the mistake she'd made. Instead of double tapping the trigger into the head of Snow to make sure he was dead once again. Eric slowly watched as Penelope walked towards him with her gun raised. When his wounds healed and, as he sat up like the Undertaker. He caused Penelope to scream in horror at the sight before her. During her scream of terror. Eric sliced at his ex-wife's Achilles tendon. Slashing deep enough for blood to come gushing out of the fresh wound inflicted on her. Dropping her to the ground next to the male about to stand in his demon form. Causing Penelope to back away in horror at the advancing male coming towards her.
Her crawling and screaming came to an end the minute Snow grabbed her by the hair. Picking her up to look upon his new face. She would never scream again when Snow opened up her throat with his knife. As blood spurted out from her cut throat and her mouth onto Snow's face. He began to open up the woman's ribcage and began working like a surgeon in removing her body parts and cutting out her reproductive organs. All the while she lay with her face staring blankly at the camera while Snow completed his revenge kill.
Outside. (End Song)
Having disposed of the security. I.M.P. had to hide in some dumpsters to avoid being detected by the humans responding to Penelope's call for help earlier. Something Blitzo is quick to point out.
"Let's hope Snow killed that bitch quickly."
His speech track is answered by the sudden smash of a window. Sending his gaze upwards as he, Moxxie, Millie and Loona see two bodies crash down onto an empty squad car parked outside the office building. The police couldn't believe their eyes at what they had seen. Causing one officer to back up and be sick next to his car. Loona couldn't believe her eyes at the sight of a blood-covered Snow standing from the crushed remains of the police car he'd landed on. In his right hand. He held the mutilated remains of his ex-wife. Noticing the police had surrounded him now with faces paler than milk at the sight before them. He drops Penelope's corpse before uttering his finishing kill one-liner.
"In death do we part bitch."
Before the police could open fire on the guy climbing off the wrecked car. He throws Penelope's corpse to the side before spitting on the sidewalk and walking away. All the police could do was watch as the male walked away towards the back alley. The exact alley where his workmates were hiding before they were to head back to Hell.
Back In The Greed Ring
"Excellent work today, team. Go home and enjoy yourselves tonight. You've all earned it."
A jubilant Blitzo says happily to his happy employees. But, something played on Snow's mind while watching Millie celebrating the job well done. Something he was more than happy to voice to his boss by asking.
"Sir, I have to ask. Who was the client who asked us to take out Penelope and Murray in the first place? They were hated by everyone they knew on Earth. So, it could have been anyone of my victims."
This Blitzo was more than happy to share with his new employee.
"Since you did a fantastic job in offing that bitch with your murdering skills. Plus, a bonus with the action movie-worthy one-liner today, Snow. I'll tell you who hired us."
Door Opens
"You called for me, Mr Blitz?"
Eric's eyes almost popped out of his skull with how wide his eyes went at the voice he hadn't heard in a while. Looking towards the door where the twelve-year-old demon girl stood. His heart shattered when Moxxie questioned.
"Our newest client, was a child?"
Blitzo nods whilst the girl beside him rubs her left foot against the floor in embarrassment. Moxxie was the first one to notice Snow shaking beside him. He tried his best to keep his tears at bay. Soon, all was revealed.
"Wanna introduce yourself to my team, sweetie?"
The little girl nods. Taking a breath and letting it go. She began to introduce herself.
"Hello… everyone. My name is Eliza. Eliza Snow."
That pushed Snow over the edge. Getting out of his seat, while ignoring the questioning looks on his colleagues' faces. He knelt to Eliza's level before looking her in the eyes. The girl was a little confused by the demon looking at her. Until Snow asks softly.
"Lizzy?"
"Only my daddy calls me that! How do you know that?"
Moving his snow-white hair to the side on the front of his head to answer the little demon girl. The little girl gasps when she sees the bullet scar on Snow's forehead. Letting the hair go back to its natural position. Snow responds.
"I know who you are, child. Did your mother ever explain what happened to your father?"
"Yes. Mommy said he committed suicide by putting a gun to his head because he couldn't cope with me anymore."
If Snow wasn't seething before. His rage was boiling over now at what his, now-dead, ex-wife had told his daughter that stood before the five of them. Staying where he was in front of the child. He takes her hand gently before speaking. Allowing himself to reveal the truth to the girl who was his daughter.
"Eliza. I never got to say goodbye to you before your mother and my bodyguard murdered me."
The little girl now had tears in her eyes when she put the pieces of the puzzle together. Once they were together. The little girl nearly choked her father with how tight she hugged the snow-white demon.
"Daddy!"
There wasn't a dry eye in the room. Well, Moxxie and Millie didn't have dry eyes. Blitzo hid his emotions well. Despite the fact, he was a father too to the Hellhound in the room. Heck, Loona nearly choked up at the touching reunion of father and daughter. Luckily, she could hide it better than the other three.
But, even in Hell. The sight of a reunited father and daughter could melt the coldest of hearts.
