" We're here everyone! " Blitz said as he drove into the theme park parking lot.
" Huha. " Octavia groaned in annoyance as she heard that as they parked the van.
After the van was came to a stop in an empty parking lot, Moxxie quickly got out and opened the van's side door.
Once Stolas, Octavia, and Zella got out, Stolas put on his Loo Loo land mascot hat, as Loona, Lily, and Millie got out of the van next.
" Sheesh, this place looks like it's #$%&ing falling apart. " Loona said as she looked at the rundown state of the theme park.
" Come on Octavia, Zella, let's go have fun! " Stolas said happily as he gestured for them to follow him before he headed into the park with Blitz following behind him.
" Augh. " Octavia groaned softly as she as she pulled her beanie down lower on her face in embarrassment, to which Zella sympathetically patted her shoulder in responds.
" Hey, this trip may not be so bad, and who knows, you might even have fun. " Zella said as she tired to comfort Octavia
" I envy your optimism and positivity sometimes Zella. " Octavia said flatly as they headed into the theme park.
" Hey dad, do we really have to do this? " Octavia asked as she and the rest of their group entered the park, hoping to get out of this situation.
" Yeah, yeah hold up there for a sec sweetie. " Blitz said politely to her, before turning to talk to her father.
" Now you listen, if you #$%&ing try anything here. " Blitz began to say angrily in a low hushed voice.
" You, are so cute when you are serious. " Stolas said affectionately as he bent down and booped Blitz on the nose.
" Ugh, I'm going to be sick. " Octavia said with a frown of disgust as she saw her dad flirt with Blitz.
" Oh crumbs I knew this would happen, what do you need? " Moxxie asked as he frantically looked through black carry bag he had.
" That was figurative old man. " Octavia said flatly with an annoyed eye roll as she folded her arms and walked away from him.
" Wow, I haven't been here since I was a tot, it hasn't changed a bit. " Millie said excitedly as she looked around the theme park.
" Oh look y'all, it's big Woobly! " Millie said excitedly as she pointed at an animatronic that some imp kids were looking at.
" Raaauurr! " Big Woobly screamed in a horrific sounding loud screech
" That is deeply upsetting. " Moxxie said as he looked at big woobly.
" More like terrifying. " Lily said as she looked at the animatronic with stunned horror.
" More like a piece of junk. " Loona said flatly as she looked at animatronic with a bored look.
" Oh come on, its fun, y'all never been here? " Millie asked as she pulled her husband into a side hug and looked at Lily and him.
" Nope. " Loona said simply has she looked at her phone with a bored look.
" My mom and adopted family always went to Lu Lu World, or other places. " Lily said as she recalled those times.
" And I never went to theme parks, they've always disturbed me, especially the mascots. " Moxxie said with a light shiver as he mentioned mascots.
" Well, don't look behind you then Moxxie. " Lily said, spotting a person wearing a apple mascot costume with big eyes and a big smile walking up behind him.
" Huh, why? " Moxxie asked curiously as he turned around, and saw his face mere inches from the smiling apple mascot's face.
" Well hey there, I'm Loo Loo, welcome to Loo Loo land! " The smiling apple mascot said happily with a southern accent as he greeted them.
" Aahhh! " Moxxie screeched in shocked horror as he fell down on the ground, which Loona snickered at seeing, finding it amusing.
" I warned you Mox. " Lily said with a light chuckle at seeing Moxxie's reaction.
" Oh look dear, its Loo Loo! " Stolas said excitedly as he gestured to the apple mascot.
" Yeah, hey I have a question. " Octavia said as she looked at the apple mascot.
" Well then, ask away little girlie! " The Loo Loo mascot asked happily as he turned to face Octavia.
" Is it true that this park is just a really shameless spinoff of the far more popular Lu Lu World park? " Octavia asked with a smug smile, knowing that it was.
" Ahh, no. " The apple mascot half heartily denied, knowing very well he couldn't honestly answer that.
" Hmph, this place reeks of insecure corporate shame. " Octavia said flatly with a frown of disgust.
" You know, why don't we go check out some of the rides dear. " Stolas said with a nervous laugh, guiding Octavia towards the direction of some rides with Zella.
" That' chick's creepy huha." The Loo Loo mascot said as he watched Octavia and her father walk elsewhere.
" Yeah, just wait till her dad diddles your holes. " Blitz said as he walked after Stolas and Octavia, with Lily and Loona following behind him.
" Oh wow, they've got some new rides and stands here! " Millie said excitedly as she looked around as they walked.
" You really like this place, huh? " Moxxie asked as he noticed his wife's excitement.
" I love this place, my parents would take me and my siblings here, when they could swing it money-wise. " Millie said with a nostalgic tone as she smile as she remembered those times.
" Yeah, the prices here do seem rather criminal. " Moxxie said as he looked at the items in a gift shop display window.
" Yeah, a lot of this stuff is really over priced. " Lily said as she looked at the prices on the shop's merchandise.
" I know right, I mean that much for a novelty cup you use one time? " Moxxie asked, pointing at a 20$ novelty cup, finding the price ridiculous.
" Cause it's Loo Loo Land! " Millie exclaimed excitingly.
" Listen to your hoe Mox." Blitz said, after taking a drink from a Loo Loo novelty cup he had as he walked up to them.
" Anyway, I'll take the take the first watch with Zella, you four go have some fun. " Blitz said as he looked them with a smile.
" Oh, we gotta do my favorite ride! " Millie exclaimed excitingly, as she picked Moxxie up and carried him off towards a roller coaster called, The Lawsuit.
" You sure you'll be okay with just the two of you guarding them? " Lily asked Blitz with slight concern, not sure of this was a good idea.
" Please, of course I can handle this, now you and Loonie go and have fun. " Blitz said reassuringly with a confident smile.
" Alright if you say so, so what do you wanna do first Loona? " Lily asked curiously as she turned to the hellhound beside her.
" Don't really know, let's look around and see what's here, hopefully we can find something that's fun to do. " Loona said as Lily and her walked off to explore.
" That was nice of you to do for them." Zella said as Blitz walked over to her, as she stood near and watched Stolas and Octavia.
They were standing near a gift stall, and Stolas was trying to convince Octavia to wear a Loo Loo Land novelty T-shirt he'd like to purchase for her.
" Yeah, I thought I'd let them go have fun, you can go have fun too, I've got things covered. " Blitz said confidently as he walked over to Zella.
" Don't worry about me, I can protect Octavia, and have fun at the same time. " Zella said casually as she watched Stolas and Octavia.
" So, how has Lily been doing at your company Blitz? " Zella asked while surveying their surroundings as they stood there.
" Oh she's #$%&ing awesome, she comes up with cool plans and ways to kill targets, she's my company's best assassin. " Blitz said proudly with a smile.
" That's good to hear, I'm glad Lily has made some new friends, and reunited with Loona. " Zella said with a smile, glad to that her older sister was doing well.
" Yeah me too, Loona's my adopted daughter by the way, and I'm glad she has a good friend like Lily, those two are very close. " Blitz said with a happy smile.
" Well it's no surprise from how Lily talked about Loona and the time they spent together, it's obvious she means a lot to Lily. " Zella thought she subtly glanced around the area.
" Hmm, now that I think back on it, could Lily have feelings for Loona? " Zella thought as she recalled how Lily talked about Loona in the past.
" So Loona, see anything you wanna ride? " Lily asked as she walked with Loona beside her as they looked around the theme park.
" Hmm, well I'm in no mood to be tossed around like a rag doll, so no role coasters for now. " Loona said as she glanced around as they walked.
" Alright, oh how about that one, it looks mild enough to start off with. " Lily said as she pointed at a ride.
The ride Lily was pointing at, was called The Apple Twister, in center of a large round platform, was a 30ft high black metal pillar, that was 10ft wide.
The ride had twelve thick dark brown metal arms, with each one having a topless two seater red apple shaped ride chart attached to it at the end.
Currently the ride's the arms were spinning, the speed they were going was fast enough to get one's blood pumping, but slow enough to still be enjoyable.
" Hmm, okay seems good as any, plus the line looks pretty short right now. " Loona said, seeing the small line already formed at the ride.
A short wait later, the ride slowing and began lowering down to the platform, once it came to a stop, those riding it prior disembarked.
Aa Loona and Lily sat down in the same cart beside each other, a ride attendant came over and lowered the safety bar and made sure it was secure.
After a few moments later, the ride's arms began to rise, and began to to spin once it reached the top of the pillar.
" Oof, these seats are too wide. " Lily groaned as she caught herself, nearly falling over on her side from the ride picking up speed.
" Here, I'll help hold you up so you don't fall over Lily. " Loona said as wrapped her arm around Lily's shoulders and pulled her close to her side.
" Uhh, t-thanks Loona. " Lily said as she felt herself blushing and her heart speeding up in response to the close proximity of their bodies.
" No prob. " Loona said with a happy smile, as they remained like that throughout the rest of the duration of the ride, much to Lily's delight.
" Well that was pretty fun, so wanna go on another one? " Lily asked shortly after they got off the ride and were on their way again.
" How about we get something to eat first, I'm feeling hungry, how about you? " Loona asked as she glanced down at Lily.
" Sure, I could eat. " Lily replied as they began looking for a food stall.
As they searched, they found a food stall with some outdoor tables around it, each with an umbrella that provided plenty of shade.
" Hm, so what do you ladies like to order? " A slim male imp in a red button up shirt with curved back horns taking orders asked them.
" I'll have the lamb steak sub, with a large beer. " Loona said as she picked her order.
" I'll have the fried shrimp Po'boy, with a medium beer as well. " Lily said as she place her order next.
" Alright, that'll be 9.48, and 7.20. " The Slim male imp said as he typed in their order.
" Here you go. " Lily said as she handed a ten dollar bill, then Loona paid for her meal next.
" Here's your change ladies, food will be ready in a minute. " The cashier imp said, after he handed then their change and receipts.
A minute their order numbers were called, and once they retrieved their food, they sat down beside each other at one of the tables.
" This is nice, it kinda feels like we're on a date. " Lily thought, feeling a light blush on her cheeks, as she sat close beside Loona.
" I wonder how Octavia and Zella are doing, hopefully their having a good time. " Lily thought as Loona and her ate their food.
" Huha. " Octavia sighed heavily in annoyance, as Stolas, Zella, and her walked and looked around the theme park.
As they did, Blitz followed them as well, while surveying the area with looking around with his sniper rifle as he moved all over the place.
" Hmm? " Zella thought as her ears subtly perked up slightly.
" Hey Blitz. " Zella said as she slowed her pace a bit and gestured for him to come over to her.
" Yeah, what's up? " Blitz asked nonchalantly as he came over to her while still surveying their surroundings.
" We're being followed, there's at least five of them from what I can hear from their footsteps. " Zella softly informed him while still acting casual.
" Gotcha, you know where? " Blitz asked as he looked around with his sniper rifle ready to use.
" Eight yards from us at six o'clock, and don't think of going after them, remember your job is to protect Stolas. " Zella said as she looked at him with a subtle glance.
" Yeah, yeah, I wasn't going to do that, I'm a professional. " Blitz said as he rolled his eyes at her in annoyance, though he had totally thinking about doing just that.
" Right, anyway just stay alert and on guard in case they try something. " Zella said nonchalantly as she quickly walking back to Octavia's side.
" Now, where you #$%&ers at? " Blitz asked softly to himself as he resumed surveying their surroundings with his sniper rifle.
" You know, it's quite thrilling to see you on the job Blitzy ~ " Stolas said in a husky low voice, as he ran a finger down one of Blitz's horns.
" Save it #$%& I'm working. " Blitz said in annoyance while still surveying their surroundings.
" You both need to get a room. " Octavia said in annoyance as she frowned at seeing them flirt in front of her.
" Hey, I am not a day hooker! " Blitz protested as a imp mother walked by him with her children.
" What, I said I'm not one you prune! " Blitz snapped angrily as he noticed the imp mother's frowning look towards him after he said that.
" Huha, so much for this trip being just for us. " Octavia said softly with irritation as she walked ahead from her father and Blitz.
" So, you see any rides wanna go on Octavia? " Zella asked as she quickly caught up with her, trying to get her mind off of Stolas flirting with and Blitz.
" Not really. " Octavia said flatly with annoyed frown.
" Okay, oh how about we find a game to play then? " Zella asked as she quickly thought of something else.
" There all probably overpriced, and their all likely rigged so don't bother. " Octavia said flatly with annoyance.
" Oh, well ahh, we can walk and look around if you want, we might find something fun to do. " Zella said weakly, trying to stay optimistic.
" Huha, I don't even wanna be here. " Octavia said flatly with a heavy sigh of frustration, as she folded her arms.
" Oh, I'm sorry, I guess I'm not helping, huh? " Zella asked softly with a defeated tone, as she slowly walked beside Octavia with her ears down.
" Oh no, it's not your fault Zella. " Octavia said quickly as she reassured the hellcat, afraid she might have hurt her feelings.
" Still, I don't like seeing you miserable Via. " Zella said as she looked up at Octavia with a sad look.
" Well it's not so bad, as long as your with me. " Octavia said with a smile as she looked at Zella.
" I'm always happy to be Via. " Zella said as she smiled back at her.
" Oh look there Octavia! " Stolas said excitedly as he walked up beside Octavia and pointed at a large circus tent.
" Oh you used to cry such tears of joy when I took you to see this show. " Stolas said happily as he recalled memories of when he took her here.
" Oh no. " Octavia said softly as she started wide eyed at the tent with fear.
" What's wrong Octavia? " Zella asked with concern, seeing Octavia's reaction at seeing the circus tent.
" I never liked going there, the shows were awful, and the worst part about it, was the clown. " Octavia said as she looked at the tent with an angry glare.
" I hate that #$%&ing clown. " Octavia said with an angry scowl as the looked a poster of a Robotic Fizzarolli.
" Yeah, me too. " Blitz said softly in agreement with Octavia as he stared at the tent with a angry frown.
" Why? " Zella asked curiously as she looked at them with a raised eyebrow.
" He's #$%&ing creepy. " Octavia said flatly as she glared at the tent.
" It's personal. " Blitz stated bitterly, as he frowned angrily at a poster of robo Fizzarolli, not saying anymore than that.
A moment later, Zella's ears perked as she heard movement in the distance behind her, as she turned around, she saw a group of five Imps around Stolas.
They were holding him up above them, tying up his arms and legs with ropes, while taking his valuables as they did so.
Moving faster then the blink of an eye, Zella reached into the fur of her left forearm, and pulled out a Beretta PX4 Storm.
Her gun was jet black, equipped with a red dot sight, a tactical pistol grip, a short compact silencer, and an extended ammo magazine.
* Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang! *
Faster than anyone could react, Zella swiftly took aim and fired at the Imps, her gun barely making a sound thanks to the gun's silencer.
Each imp was swiftly killed with a single bullet straight to the heart, which left a large hole in the imps were they were shot.
" Oof! " Stolas lightly groaned as he was dropped to the ground as his captors were killed.
" Hey Blitz, you need to pay more attention to things. " Zella said in annoyance as she replaced her gun's magazine with a fully loaded one.
" Hey, I could have handled that, but still, nice shooting there. " Blitz said as he raised his black sunglasses, impressed with Zella's marksmanship.
" Thanks. " Zella said with a smile as she placed her pistol back in her fur.
" Oh Blitzy, I need some help ~ " Stolas said, smiling as he sat there with his arms and legs still tied up with rope.
"Ugh. " Blitz groaned loudly, as he went to untie Stolas before they headed inside the tent.
" Huha. " Octavia groaned with a heavy sigh, as she sat on a wooden bench in the front middle row inside the tent, with Zella sitting beside her on her right.
Blitz then walked up to where they were, carrying Stolas princess style, before roughly dropping him on the bench beside Octavia on her left.
" Quite a lot of people here to see this show, despite what Octavia said, this place is clearly popular. " Zella thought as she noticed the number of demons present to see the show.
Then the tent's interior lights began to dim, music began to play, and the lights at the stage began to brighten, signaling the show was about to start.
" H-H-Hey there Implings, its me, the Robotic Fizzarolli! " The robot jester demon from the posters said excitedly as he introduce himself while he stepped onto the stage.
" What's wrong with this Robo Fizzarolli, his voice is glitched and distorted, and are those sparks spewing out of his neck? " Zella thought as she looked at the robot jester with concern.
" Shipped from Big Ozzie's factory, I am here to bring you all a wonderful show, celebrating Loo Loo Land, spelled with os to avoid lawsuits! " Robo Fizz said as he held up a small sign with the theme park's name on it.
" Now h-hit it f-fellas! " Robo Fizz said as he threw the tossed the sign away and snapped his fingers.
The stage curtains were then fully opened, revealing a band of animatronics on a raised theatrically demonic designed stage.
As soon as they were revealed, the animatronic band began to play, and Robo Fizz began to sing and dance on stage in a theatrical manner.
Throughout the performance, Zella noticed Octavia deeply frowning, and looked utterly miserable as the show went on.
Seeing Octavia like this, Zella slid closer to her, and stealthily reached over and gently placed her left hand over Octavia's right hand.
Immediately Octavia turned and looked at Zella, and saw the hellcat looking at her with a comforting and sympathetic smile.
Octavia smiled back, realizing that Zella was trying to comfort her, and intertwining her fingers with Zella's.
Sitting so close like this, they could secretly hold hands while not having worry about being public, which seemed to cheer Octavia up some.
As the song finally ended, several stage sparklers went off at the same time, shooting green sparks in the air as the performance ended.
As it did, Zella and Octavia reluctantly let go of each others hands, though both knew they had to so they wouldn't get caught.
" Hahaha, oh how delightful! " Stolas said happily as he clapped in applause as the show concluded.
" Huha. " Octavia groaned softly as she heavily signed in annoyance, not sharing any of her father's amusement.
" Well, at least the show's over and we can go now. " Zella thought as she stretched her neck, feeling a few pops as she did.
Suddenly Zella ears subtly perked up slightly, hearing the approach of soft, slow footsteps coming from behind them.
" There's one sneaking up behind me, and one sneaking up behind Stolas, the one near me is the closest, I'll deal with them first. "
" I'll let them get close and use my hellfire claws on them, I'll shoot the other one. " Zella thought calmly as she heard their approach.
Once she heard the foot steps where close enough, in a blur, Zella twisted her neck and torso around, using her feline flexibility.
As she did, she unsheathed the claw of her right index finger, as soon as she did, her black claw glowed dark red like hot metal.
And in one swift fluid motion, she decapitated an Imp welding a knife behind her, the stump of his neck was instantly completely cauterized by the heat of her hellfire claws.
The severed head flew off somewhere, but Zella didn't pay attention to that, and swiftly pulled out her pistol from the fur of her left wrist.
* Bang! *
Before Zella could fire at the imp near Stolas, the imp's head exploded like a balloon, courtesy of Blitz who was standing behind the rail of the back benches.
" Huha, that was a nice shot. " Zella thought as she smiled and gave him a thumbs up after she put her pistol away.
Blitz saw this and smiled back at her, giving Zella a thumps up back after he reloaded his sniper rifle, before going back to looking out for threats.
" My, what good aim you have Blitzy~ " Stolas said flirtatiously in husky voice as he looked at Blitz.
" Augh, I can't do this anymore! " Octavia said angrily as she got up and quickly ran away from the bench.
" Octavia wait! " Zella said in panic, as she quickly ran after the owl demon princess as she storms out of the tent.
