Tommy was a little unsure about calling in some of his Legionnaire friends, but they (along with Tommy himself), were the strongest and best members of the platoon their were in together. Perhaps his cronies might call Tommy and Celeste a freak for this, but they might or might not understand the situation that was going on right now. It was a good thing they still had the book with them so they can travel to France and call in his best amis for their help. The men were called together, and there were five of them. One was a man with very dark skin like he was from Africa, and the second was pale white with blonde hair. The third was a muscular man with dark hair and a broad face with his physique similar to Dwayne Johnson or other famous wrestlers or WWE superstars. For the fourth; he was very lanky with glasses on him, and red hair on his oval-like head. Finally, for the fifth, he looked like someone from the Middle East, or North Africa.

"Bonjour, Tommy." said the five men.

"Salut, mes amis." said Tommy warmly. "Normally, I wouldn't ask you guys of this, but I really need your help. "And I want you to keep this a secret from everyone else. No one besides us it to know about what is going on. OK? Not. A. Soul." His friends were a little confused by this situation. Nevertheless, they listened in on what their old friend had to say. "Look, you guys remember my little brother, Cody?" They all replied yes to him with smiles. "Well, he's been kidnapped by a crazy cunt named Martha, who is planning to kill him. So we need your guys help."

His buddies made a shocked gasped, and could hardly believe a nice little boy like Cody would be kidnapped. "This is terrible!" said the black man. He certainly had the accent that he was, definitely from Africa. "Good thing our commander named us the best soldiers in his team. What's the plan? Just tell us what to do and we'll follow!"

The rest of Tommy's legionnaire friends wholeheartedly agreed with him. Smiling gratefully, Tommy said: "I know I would count on you, Chibuzo. But I just want you guys to promise you won't freak out when we get to our destination. Please. Just trust me and try not to panic." Tommy had the imps, who were in their disguises, and Blitzo created the portal with the book. "Blitzo, lead the way, please?"

"You got it. Tommy!" said Blitzo. He, Moxxie, Millie, entered the portal where Vortex, Crystal, Serena, and Octavia were waiting for them to return. The Legionnaires were a little surprised where they were by the interior of the place, and couldn't help but look out the window to see the messed up world of Hell.

"Qu'est-que ce?" said the Middle Eastern man.

"Guys, this is Hell. Literally hell."

"Hell?" his friends said in surprise.

"What did you do to deserve being down here, Tommy?" asked the lanky man with red hair

"Nothing Gerard. Nothing. You see, not only Cody is captured, but my parents died in a fire, and there's a friend that saved Cody from the fire, who is also captured by this Martha."

The three IMP demons unveiled their disguises and the leader was the first one to speak. "I'm Blitzo. The O is silent."

"Moxxie at your service." he added. "Enchante."

"I'm Millie. I know this is weird, but I'm as sweet as a tree full of peaches."

"Look, i know this is so weird to you, but we're friends with Cody, and we want to save him." Moxxie remarked. "We need all the help we can get."

"And who the fuck is the werewolf?" asked the muscular man with dark hair.

Vortex took a little offense to that, and said: "Actually, monsieur, i'm a hellhound. I mean, yeah, I kinda look like a werewolf. Anyway, I'm a nice guy and I won't eat you. Tommy trusts me. So does Cody." the men were still a little cautious about this. Alas, they can still trust Tommy, their best friend at least.

"I am Octavia Goetia. I am a princess of Hell. And a good friend of Cody also."

"I'm Crystal"

"And i'm Serena

"Well, this is weird." said the pale man. "Merde (shit), I never thought we would ask demons for help. It would be completely against my own religion."

"Moi aussi." said Chibuzo. "What would the lord think of me if I associate myself with demons and Satan?"

"I hate to break it to you, monsieur." said Blitzo, "but there is quite some corruption in Hell too. Take it from us. We've seen some corrupt angels in our lives. Especially a triplet of Cherubs who meddle in the lives of humans."

"Really?" said the lanky member.

"Really really." Moxxie said. "Heaven is not as perfect as many humans say it is."

"Well, I wish we can just bring in Jesus himself to help us out. He can show us the way." the Middle-Eastern man pointed.

"I know Ali, but these guys are alright." said Tommy. "Besides, I think it's your turn to introduce yourselves to my new friends."

"Of course. I am Chibuzo Ndiaye. I hailed from Senegal. Although I lived in Burkina Faso for three years, and Gabon for five."

"Ali Kalil from Lebanon."

"Pierre Alphonse from Belgium." the blonde man said.

"I am Luc from Minnesota. My parents came from France to Canada to America." the muscular, broad-face man remarked.

"A big pleasure." said Blitzo, shaking hands with the men.

"So, how can we track down zis Martha?" asked Celeste. "Tex, do you think you can smell her out?"

"I think I can. I just need to trace it from Blitzo's place and all the way back to where Martha and her family are hiding out. It should be that simple as long as the trail is still hot." They all followed Tex to Blitzo's place, and as soon as Tex had the scent of Martha, he used his perfect sense of smell to track down the house of Martha.

"Way to go, Tex!" said Moxxie. "Ooh, but it's me, Millie, and Blitzo Martha wants. Not you guys."

"Right." said Millie. "Make yourselves hidden, guys. Wait until we give out the signal."

"Got it." said Tommy, Celeste, Vortex, Octavia and the Legionnaires. They all hid behind some large hedges and bushes so that the deranged family won't see them. Blitzo broke the door down and they saw that there was no one in sight. When they entered the living room, they saw Cody and Loona still tied together, but looking mostly unharmed. Loona had a couple of bruises on her but Cody didn't really have any bruises on him, except for one. There was a cut on his right arm with dry blood on it.

"Blitzo! Moxxie! Millie!" Cody said.

"Cody!" the imps exclaimed with joy.

Loona, nevertheless, was happy to see the guys, but she stopped looking happy for a second and just gave them a look of "whatever" on her face, and rolled her face. "How dare they muzzle you, Loony!?" Blitzo said, promptly taking the rope off her face. "Well Blitzo's here to save the day."

"Oh shut up." Loona said. "Let's just get out of here before-"

Suddenly, Martha, Ralphie, Jimmy, and Jenny came from the ceilling and they had weapons on them. Martha had sais, Ralphie had a shotgun, Jimmy had a revolver, and Jenny had a semi-auto pistol. "Perfect! Now you've fallen right into my trap. Now I can kill all of y'all at the same time."

"Wait! we're here now!" Blitzo said. "You got what you wanted Martha. Just let Cody go!"

"ooh, sorry, can't do that." said Ralphie.

"Lil Cody has seen too much." Martha sneered wickedly. "He is a witness, so is that bitchy daughter of yours. Besides, we love killing so much. Oh, I can't wait to put yer heads all up our wall as trophies!"

"Over my dead body." said Loona.

"That's the idea." said Jimmy.

Blitzo suddenly whistled and the rest of their friends popped in through the windows. "Let them go." Tex growled. He humbly got the mesh rope off of Loona, freeing here.

"Wait, we told y'all three to come alone!" Martha looked shocked

"Never trust Blitzo." said Moxxie. Then an all-out fight ensued, but within one minute, by surprise, most of the allies were down by the murder family, as if they were all blackbelts, and the only one standing now was Cody, who was suddenly knocked out by Jimmy with the back of his gun.

It looked like the battle was lost, and the evil murder family had won. Suddenly, before Martha could finish off Cody, the kid slowly awoken from being knocked out, and said: "Please, you don't want to kill me."

"I think we do, sweetie." Martha showed her evil smile. "Any last words before I kill ya?"

"Well, at least I'll be with my mom and dad again." Cody bowed his head.

"Because I like ya a little bit." the woman said before knocking him out. "I won't make you see your own death." before she would kill him with her sais, a pink and black silhouette appeared in front of Cody, who had a glimpse of who was helping him and his friends, and an all-out fight appeared. He wasn't so sure who it was, but it looked like a beautiful female demon with small wings. And then, it blacked out.


Cody was asleep and he felt someone gently holding him. When his vision came back, what he saw next surprised him. "Whew. Thank Satan you're awake, Cody." it was Verosika herself, and she was wearing a skin-tight sleeveless unitard like she was someone from a spy movie. he was also in his bedroom where the succubus captured him before

"You?" Cody said. "Are you working with Martha?"

"No! Of course not, sweetie." she gently put him down. "Quite the opposite as a matter of fact; I stopped her and her family, decapitated their heads and I saved you... and your friends. Loona was awake, and so was Tex. They kinda helped me out. Though Loona wasn't really happy to see me."

"well neither am i." Cody narrowed his eyes at her in hatred. "I'm still mad at you for kidnapping me. You helped me, now get out of my face before I ask Loona or Tex to beat you up."

"Is that how you say thanks to someone who just saved you?" said an offended Verosika. "Look, I know you still hate me for kidnapping you. But like I said; I didn't know what happened to your parents."

"Blitzo said you're a nasty piece of work, Verosika."

"Oh he did, did he? I should have left him with that crazy bitch when I had the chance."

"See! This is why I don't like you!" Cody pointed.

Taking a little breath, Verosika said: "Look, i'm sorry. But Blitzo put me through a lot of pain when he broke up with me. Don't listen to what awful things he says about me, Cody. I am more than he says I am. I do have a heart."

"But you just love me like a pet or like i'm your trophy." Cody pointed

Sighing, Verosika admitted: "OK. I did, at first, yes. But I just want you to know how sorry I am. When is it going to take for you to accept that i'm sorry?"

Cody took a breath and asked: "Where is everyone? Are they OK?"

"Yes. They're fine. Loona and Tex are waiting for you and wondering if you're alright."

"Cody?" Loona came through the door.

"Loona!" the kid said before hugging her. Tex was with her as well, and he hugged the kid after Loona.

"Thank God you're alright." the female hellhound hugged him again. "OK, succubus, you can get the hell out of here now." she sounded rather rude to her.

"Look. I know you guys hate me, but I saved him."

"OK, I thank you for that." said Vortex.

"But I still don't want to see you." Cody said. "I didn't need your help."

"Oh really?" said Verosika. "From I've saw at that shack, you all did."

Moxxie, Millie, and the others came in and looked at Verosika in a scowl. "They caught us off-guard, Mayday." Moxxie said. "We still could have handled her without your help."

"You might have saved us," said Tommy," but it doesn't mean we're not still mad at you for kidnapping my brother."

"I just saved his life, Tommy!" Verosika said. "Doesn't that make up for how I acted before?"

"No! Cody said. I hate you!"

Those words broke Verosika on the inside and said: "OK. I'll go." she sighed in defeat before heading out. "But if you want to talk to me again and have me do something to make it up to you, let me know." then she headed out the apartment.

"We're so glad you're ok, Cody." said Crystal

"yeah, we thought we'd lost you."

"Anything you need from us?"

"No, maybe I can just talk with Tommy and Celeste."

"That's fine." said Loona. Everyone exited the room and decided to tend to the wounds that were inflicted on them from the crazy family.

"Are you ok, Cody?" asked Tommy.

"Uh-huh. Thanks to you guys."

"Good."

"On one hand, we're glad Verosika saved us, but she still can't be trusted."

"Well... I don't know. maybe she does care about me?"

"Probably not as a person." Tommy said. "I would still stay away from her if I were you. You remember my friends from the Legion?"

"Uh-huh."
