Hello everyone, sorry for the late post. I was hoping to have this up for Halloween as a treat, but sadly it got away from me. This chapter was inspired by the Halloween Horror Nights in Universal Studios, and thought it would be a good setting to introduce someone special for Zak. I also saw the latest episode of Helluva Boss, and found it quite intriguing in a way. I'll update when I can as I still have work to do as well, and it's never easy with the holidays coming up. This is a precursor for the Harvest Moon Festival which will be next chapter. This was a request asked by my good friend Killjoy3000 who has been very supportive with me, and has been helping me with many ideas. This is my thanks to him as well.
Hope you all enjoy, and please leave a review to tell me what you think. Also for those who keep asking, Stella will never be in the harem, or any kind of love interest to Zak.
I do not own Helluva Boss or any of it's content.
Zak and Loona were sitting down at the I.M.P. Headquarters staring at an angry Blitzo tapping his foot impatiently while scowling at them. Moxxie and Millie were sitting next to one another with Millie petting her husband's hair smiling happily.
"We've been sitting here for an hour, and he hasn't said anything. What's going on?" whispered Zak to Loona.
"I…I don't know. He's never been this quiet before. It's kinda creepy", whispered Loona rubbing her forearms.
"You fucked my baby girl, I was forced to accept it. You brought in a new hire without my approval, I accepted that too. Mostly because she knows her way around a polish rag without getting high off it", said Blitzo sniffing a rag drenched in cleaning solution, Inhale "But now…now I missed my baby girl's first concert because you were invited to some glorified whorehouse that looked like an amusement park?!"
"We brought back souvenirs", said Zak holding up a bag of sex toys.
"We'll take those", said Millie excitedly grabbing the bag rummaging through it.
"And another thing I want to point out…WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS GOING ON HERE?!" screamed Blitzo angrily pointing to Verosika and her crew eating pastries, sandwiches, and tea being served by Maddie.
"So much for the peace and quiet. It was good while it lasted. Unlike last night where Zakie pumped so much inside us. I thought we would be pregnant with triplets or something", moaned Verosika. Not much has changed about her appearance other than her tits now stretching her attire to the extreme outlining her nipples, and her skirt lifting up showing off her pussy.
Mmm "These are so good! I'm having an orgasm in my mouth!" said Kiki with her body partially enhanced with her tits now protruding more to perky D-cup, wide hips, and bubble butt that her skirt was riding up showing her lack of panties, "Or maybe it's just a delay one from Zakie's fuck session."
"He was so thick and yummy", said Apple in a dreamy tone with her tits stretching out her denim trousers, and her butt half showing through. She leaned back against a beanbag that had Loona's name on it in red letters.
"Much like these double chocolate apple strudel. How'd you balance the bitter and sweetness at the same time?" moaned Coco eating another one of Maddie's sweet. Her shirt was stretched out showing a lot of her under-boob since her sports bra didn't fit anymore, and her jean shorts unbutton because of her new wide hips.
"Sorry, that's a trade secret", said Maddie winking at her.
"Oh She's definitely looking to have her pussy grinded again", said Coco eating the last of her pastry with Apple smiling excitedly.
"Actually I think it is the pastry. These finger sandwiches are awesome too. Wonder whose fingers she used", said Ace eating several other foods.
"Ace, for the last time, they're not made with real fingers. They just call it 'finger sandwiches' because it fits between your fingers and they're small", said Josh drinking his tea grimacing in pain as he rubbed his sore butt from the concert orgy.
"Just leave him alone Josh. At least we got to join a 10-hour long orgy with a few numbers in our hands", said Kat holding up several phone numbers of some admiring imps, succubi, and incubi, "Hey, who ate the last of the turkey ham?"
Kat looked over to Ace eating the last of said sandwich when Ace looked at his friend in a confusing manner, "Damn it Ace! Learn how to respect the property of dibs!"
"You snooze, you lose", said Ace drinking his tea.
"That's only when it comes to getting laid! Not everything else! Mother fucker!" cursed Kat jumping Ace as they began wrestling around destroying several chairs.
"WILL SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY THE BITCH WHORE AND HER GANG OF SLUTS ARE IN MY OFFICE?!" yelled Blitzo angrily.
"What got your thong twisted in a bunch?" asked Milky biting on a chocolate-dipped strawberry.
"They're comfortable, and I love the way my boys feel in them. It's like a hammock for your balls", said Blitzo in delightful tone shocking everyone.
"Dude, way too much info", said Tex standing by the entrance.
"Up yours, beef cake. Now back to the matter at hand…GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY OFFICE!"
"Calm down, pencil prick. I'm actually here on official business as well", said Verosika handing Zak an envelope, "This is your check for the performance you and Loona helped give, as well as a little something extra for the security detail you helped during the time Tex was unavailable."
"Verosika, really, I volunteered for it. It's not a big deal", said Zak politely holding her hands.
"Well it is to me, and you helped out a lot. It's only fitting you were compensated for your work. The fuck session was nice too, we're definitely continuing that", said Verosika kissing him making Blitzo gag in disgust.
"So…does that mean-"
"Oh yeah, we're fuck buddies. And I want another fuck session and date soon", said Verosika kissing Loona shocking the three imps.
Loona and Verosika moaned into each other's kiss with their tongues rolling around while feeling each other up. Loona and Verosika grabbed Zak and pulled him into a heated three-way kiss making Blitzo growl in anger while foaming at the mouth.
"ALRIGHT THAT'S IT! It's one thing you messing with my employees, but you will not harm my Loonie!" yelled Blitzo going into his overprotective daddy state, "I know you're doing this to get back at me…AND IT'S WORKING! SO FUCK OFF!"
"Actually prick, I do like your hellhound and Zakie. It's actually nice having someone around who likes being near me for me, and not just because I'm famous. Loona is quite creative as well that she's inspired me for some new projects I'm working on, and an animal in bed. Unlike you, Zak actually listens to me, and is more generous and helpful than you, both in the sack and in real life. Annoying you was just an unintended bonus, but I don't wanna jeopardize what we currently have or might have like my therapist says", said Verosika crossing her arms under her chest, "Also he says your last check bounce. You owe him for the last three sessions, and his own therapy session. The fuck did you tell him?"
"Fuck you whore. Ever heard of doctor-patient confidence-iality?" said Blitzo smirking victoriously.
"That's 'confidentiality' you illiterate ass-wipe. Read a book for once", said Verosika in a seething tone.
"Look Moxxie, this flesh-light vibrates!" said Millie taking out a pulsating flesh-light in the shape of vagina lips. Moxxie took out a barbed dildo that started vibrating after accidentally turning it on distracting everyone from their argument.
"Anyways, why are you here? Weren't you off to fuck some old guy to death or something?" asked Verosika.
"Wait, that's a thing? Can I really do that?" asked Blitzo making Moxxie and Millie shrug their shoulders in confusion.
"Oh yeah, what happened to those cute Cherubs that were with you as well?" asked Zak confusing everyone in the room.
"They got kicked out of Heaven for accidentally killing Lyle Lipton", explained Millie taking out a set of anal beads.
"THEY WHAT?!" yelled an angry Zak causing sparks all over his body as he got close to Blitzo's face, "What did you do?!"
"Why do you assume it's my fault?" asked Blitzo angrily.
"Because you're an egocentric narcissistic asshole who only cares about himself?" said Verosika in a sarcastic tone sitting down on a chair placing her feet up on the table.
"Okay, three little Cherubs are stuck on Earth with no way of returning to Heaven. I'll just see if they can contact someone, or maybe a high ranking angel, or something! Agh I can't think straight!" groaned Zak hitting his head against the table causing everyone to be concerned.
"What the fuck is wrong with you?! Why are you so hung up on the three flying midget babies?!" asked Blitzo getting irritated.
"I don't know! I just have this strong urge to help them okay?!" yelled Zak in frustration, "I just-I can't-I…" stuttered Zak making Loona hold him with everyone else starting to become worried about his behavior.
Knock Knock
"We're we expecting something?" asked Moxxie.
"I'll-"
Tex interrupted Maddie as he cautiously approached the door, and opened it only to be shocked at how he was greeted.
"Zak, my precious baby! How are you?! Are you eating well?! You seem hairier than usual! Have you been shaving?!" energetically greeted a succubus lifting up Tex like he was nothing rubbing her face against his fur unaware that she was hugging a hellhound.
The succubus was taller than Verosika by a few inches with two, short, sweptback horns on top of her head in a diagonal angle. She had long blond hair that reached the middle of her back, two pink, medium size wings, a long tail with a white heart-shaped tipped, light pink skin, an hourglass figure that rivaled Verosika's, large perky DD-cup breasts, wide hips, and a plump rear. She had on a modified leather halter top was tied around her neck and back giving her the ability to user her wings, a jacket covering her arms and mid back with two slits to slip her wings through, a white muffler scarf around her neck, and her top going down to cover her nipples showing a lot of under-boob. She had two leather belts crisscrossing one another around her tone waist, and leather pants that had zippers going up the length of her sides with high heeled boots.
Blitzo looked at the succubus that just entered and started spouting out nonsense while hyperventilating, "She-You-Her-Hug-Fuck-Bag-Holes!" Pant Pant
"Sir, are you alright?" asked Moxxie confusingly.
Loona looked on in confusion wondering who she was when she saw Verosika and her gang standing up straight, "Okay this…this is really weird."
"Mom?" interrupted Zak making the succubus woman stop to open her eyes revealing yellow sclera with pink succubus eyes. She looked up to see Tex waving at her awkwardly as she placed him down.
"'Mom'?!" repeated the IMP crew minus Blitzo who seemed to be blowing into a brown paper bag.
"Zak!" greeted the succubus once again pulling him into a hug between her breasts, "Aww Now this is the hug I love from my baby boy!"
Zak struggled being smothered by his own mother's breasts until he finally was able to pull up taking in gasps of air, "Mom! It's good to see you! What are you doing in Pride?" greeted Zak with a smile.
"I just came here after getting your last letter when I saw your performance live! Teach even called me saying that he was proud of you, but wished you didn't use so much 'rock n roll' in your song", said Zak's mother.
"Yeah, that's Master for ya", chuckled Zak.
"Oh Honey, stop calling him that. You know it just inflates his ego even more. I also came here because of something else", said his mother confusing Zak when his body started to spark once again summoning his wings and knocking over some chairs. She looked at him seeing the discomfort in his face and embarrassment, and gave him a comforting smile.
"S-Sorry", apologized Zak.
"Honey, you have nothing to be sorry about. I saw your power go out-of-control when Verosika kissed you. Why didn't you call me about this?" asked his mother looking behind him to see Verosika and her crew.
"H-Hi Miss B-Bella", stuttered a nervous Verosika with her succubus girls smiling back nervously.
"Aah, Now I get it. Well they seem like decent girls at least with some manners. But Zak, Honey, remember to let things happen naturally and not rush it. I wouldn't want you to be in some toxic relationship with some money-grubbing floozy who-"
"No, mom, we had sex last night, that wasn't the reason why I didn't call you. We're just friends with benefits at the moment. These are my girlfriend Loona and Maddie, my friends Moxxie and Millie, and-"
POP
"Hi! I'm Blitzo! The 'O' is silent, and might I just say you are one fine-ass-"
Clack
"Who's the soon-to-be dead carcass?" asked Bella in a menacing tone summoning a modified shotgun pistol hybrid weapon from a red magic circle containing a phul symbol in the middle with runes circling around it. Blitzo had blown deeply into his bag making it pop before he recovered shoving Zak out of the way checking out the new succubus woman while introducing himself.
"Mom, this is Blitzo. He's the boss where I'm working as a bodyguard", groaned Zak recovering from his fall with Loona and Maddie helping him up, "Blitzo, this is my mother-"
"Death Toll Belladonna! You're my idol, and hot as fuck in person than your poster! I don't suppose you're-"
"I don't give a fuck who you are. Anyone who treats my son with disrespect answers to my guns", growled Bella with her eyes glowing brightly.
"Okay, this shit is seriously hot, and I have a wicked boner right now", smiled Blitzo excitedly.
"I'm happily married", growled Bella.
"Yeah, according to Pac-"
BANG
Bella pulled the trigger of her gun creating a large smokescreen blinding everyone. Tex moved in front of Verosika protecting her with Zak shielding his friends and girlfriends. Everyone looked on with Verosika smiling happily at the thought of Blitzo being dead, when she groaned in disappointment to see Blitzo on the floor with a huge bullet hole near his crotch ruining his pants.
"My son is in trouble, and he's not feeling well. I don't like killing in front of him since he has a particular view of mercy which I find endearing. Since I haven't seen him in so long, and I'm feeling generous today, you're getting off easy with a warning shot. Next time, it's between your eyes" growled Bella.
"I-" Uumph
"Thank you so much for your generosity ma'am. If you'll excuse us", interrupted Loona covering Blitzo's mouth as she dragged him away making Bella stare at the hellhound.
"The fuck is wrong with you?! Even I can see her skills are legit! She's dangerous if you piss her off! Stop being a selfish prick for once and learn some decency!" harshly whispered Loona.
"Remember that talk we had about me wanting to fuck my idol?" said Blitzo lustfully leering and pointing at Bella. Bella instantly fired a cork from her hand as it ricochets between a couple of objects and hits Blitzo between his eyes.
"Keep your pathetic lust to yourself! Next one's a real bullet", warned Bella without looking behind her shocking Loona with her skills.
"Oh…fuck", commented Loona dropping Blitzo unable to think of anything else to say.
"T-That's amazing! How did you do that?! And your gun…it's…it's a work of art!" said Moxxie admiring her skills and her weapons.
"You like? I modeled them after one of my brother's guns. It's quite simple once you get the basics down", explained Bella smiling with Moxxie drooling at the sight of her gun. Bella looked at him and her gun before flipping it over to hold the muzzle, "Wanna take a closer look?"
"N-No, I couldn't I-I-I-"
"The 'aye's have it. I don't mind", giggled Bella, "It's always nice to hear complements from a fellow sharpshooter."
Moxxie could only blush at her complement as he inspected her gun admiring it quality with Millie hugging him from behind to look the gun as well.
Giggle "They're cute together, but why do they have your mana traces Honey?"
"I wasn't feeling too well, and when they checked up on me, my powers were already going haywire when…well this is the end result", explained Zak.
"Zak, why didn't you call me?" asked a concerned Bella in a motherly tone.
"I didn't want to disturb you, and I know it's been a while since you were out on a job. I called Master for advice-"
"Zak, I'm never too busy for you. Whenever you need me, I'll be there in an instant. I even brought your baby pictures with me", squealed Bella conjuring up a photo album shocking him.
"I wanna see!" said Apple excitedly with Coco following behind her.
"Oh this I have to see", said Loona with Maddie giggling excitedly.
"Maw! Wa dae ye hae 'at?!" said Zak in a thick Scottish accent.
"What's wrang wi' a mammy wantin' tae shaw 'er bonnie son's bairn picters?" asked Bella in a thick Scottish accent as well pinching his cheeks.
"It's embarrassin' that's whit!" said Zak blushing brightly.
"Donae tak' 'at tain wi' me cheil. Aam yer maw, an' ye will respect me as sic'", replied Bella.
"Curse me kilts!"
"Donae curse in front ay yer maw. It's shameful. Gonnae-no bein' sae dramatic, an' quite greetin' loch a newborn. Ah want yer girlfriends tae ken mair abit ye. Th' hoond lassie is bonnie tay", said Bella motioning towards Loona.
"That's Loona whom I introduce ye tae. Thes is mah other burd Maddie", introduced Zak gesturing to Loona and Maddie.
"Um…Hi?" responded Maddie waving nervously.
"Ooh, Ye'r a sinner aren't ye lassy?" asked Bella inspecting Maddie.
"Uh…y-yes?" replied Maddie not fully understanding the question, but understood the word 'sinner'.
Ahem "Sorry, sometimes we get carried away and speak like we did in Scotland. Ahh Good times, good food, good pubs. I'm surprised a sinner like you decided to go out with my son", said Bella motioning for her son to sit on a chair with her magic circle appearing under him, and started scanning Zak.
"It's a long story", said Maddie nervously smiling.
"Zak, calm down, I can't get a proper reading if you keep getting agitated", said Bella with her eyes glowing pink.
"I can't help it. Ever since Blitzo said that he made three Cherubs get banned from Heaven-"
Clack
"He what?!" asked Bella in her menacing tone summoning her second gun and aimed at Blitzo.
"In my defense-"
"One more word, and the only thing waiting for you is death", warned Bella without looking at Blitzo effectively shutting him up knowing that just pulling the trigger means death for him.
"Um Miss Bella, may I?" asked Moxxie in scared tone.
"You may", said Bella looking down at him as Moxxie explained the situation that occurred during their time on Earth with Lyle Lipton.
"So you see, it was our job to kill him by any means, and since the Cherubs were-"
"Stop, please, I've heard enough", groaned Bella in frustration, "Sounds like I'd be doing all the realms a favor by killing this irritating nuisance."
"I'm seriously horny as fuck right now, and I want Zak to take me again", whispered Verosika.
"Down girl, let's leave that for tonight if we're lucky", giggled Loona playfully elbowing her making both girls giggle quietly.
"Um, Miss Bella, we should point out our boss is boyfriend to Prince Stolas", said Millie when Blitzo's phone just started ringing showing Stolas' name, "See? That would be him now."
Groan "Of course he is. Stolas, you dumb fool", said Bella walking up to Blitzo grabbing his phone. She finished scanning her son as he glowed red under her seal nodding her head in satisfactory, before answering Blitzo's phone.
Beep
"Hello my big-"
"STOLAS!" yelled Bella startling Stolas on the phone.
Ahh "Blitzy! You sound terrible! You almost sound like-"
"It's me, Stolas", said an irritated Bella.
"Oh, Hello Belladonna. Good to hear from you. It's been so long. What are you doing with-"
"You gave away your grimoire?" asked an angry Bella.
"I can explain that", said Stolas in a nervous tone.
"Shut it! I don't wanna hear it. Its reasons like this why I stopped being one of your guards. I need to go to Earth so make the necessary arrangements for me please. I'm not using your damned book since I don't know how long I'm going to take. Don't forget that the harvest festival is coming up", said Bella.
"Actually, that was one of the reasons for my call to Blitzy. You see-"
"I told you to shut it! Keep your pathetic excuses to yourself, I'm not your wife. Bitch wouldn't stop hassling me anyway especially when I was pregnant", said Bella with a partial growl at mentioning Stolas' wife.
"Yes, I do apologize for that Belladonna", said Stolas in an embarrassed tone.
"It's not you who should be apologizing to me. Make my arrangements as I said. I'll be there tomorrow. I wanna spend the rest of the day with my son. Give little Octavia my regards" Beep, said Bella hanging up Blitzo's phone, "Your boyfriend requests your presence and the grimoire, you walking dildo. When you see him, tell him sparing you counts as his favor."
"And do I get a favor-"
"Your favor is the faster you leave, the faster I'm no longer tempted to put a bullet where your head is. Nothing more", interrupted Bella in a low menacing tone making Blitzo sweat nervously.
"Of course, can I have-"
Clack
"Leaving now!" said Blitzo quickly as he ran out the door after Bella growled in frustration with her eyes glowing brightly with power.
"Alright then, who wants some haggis?! On our tour to Scotland I got a wonderful recipe that put my teacher's jambalaya recipe to shame! He may think he can improve it, but I've been experimenting with a few ingredients myself", said Bella smiling happily with Zak chuckling at her excitement while everyone else was confused at what she said.
"Sounds fun. I've actually missed some of your delicious haggis", said Zak showing her to the kitchen.
"What exactly is haggis?" asked Moxxie.
"SHEEP STOMACH STUFFED WITH MEAT AND BARLEY!" yelled Zak and Bella excitedly at the same time making everyone flinch in shock.
"Wow, that's deeply rooted. It's actually a lot more tasty then it sounds", said Zak smiling as he grabbed some chef knives.
"I'm game", said Loona.
"Ooh, She's a fiery one indeed. I like her", said Bella impressed with Loona's confidence making the hellhound blush at her complement.
"So, what did you think of our performance Miss Bella?" asked Verosika hoping to get her approval as well.
"Your too stiff lass. Those stripper moves might get the amateur guys excited, but if you really want the ones you like to ravage you, you've got to shake your hips more", said Bella igniting the stove.
"Oh", said a disappointed Verosika with Zak gently patting her back.
"Oh don't ye fret, I'm also a dance teacher. Taught my little Zak everything he knows. I'll let it slip that he wasn't feeling well on why he didn't move much, but I can tell he hasn't been practicing much", said Bella making him flinch.
Chuckle Nervously "I think we may be in trouble", whispered Zak scratching his cheek confusing Verosika, "Well as long as she doesn't-"
"Zakarain, get my pipes!" ordered Bella excitedly with a smile flambéing some meat.
"Now we're really screwed", nervously gulped Zak.
Several Hours Later
"Much better. Good to see you still haven't lost all of your skills Zak. Though I'm shocked you have some skills Verosika. You too, Kiki", said Bella smiling happily with Kiki, Verosika, and Zak panting hard as they sat on the floor.
"My feet are on fire", whined Kiki.
"Mom, no offense, but when am I ever gonna dance with two women at the same time?" asked Zak rubbing his sore feet.
"You never know Honey. You'd be surprised at how much attention you can get when you can cut a rug, and handle multiple girls on the dance floor", said Bella with everyone else staring wide eyed at their performance.
"I'm seriously questioning my sexuality right now", muttered Ace.
"Dude, whoever invented the word MILF met this chick", muttered Josh.
"The fuck! This sheep whatever thing is delicious! It's practically a sheep sausage", happily moaned Loona eating another helping of haggis.
"That's sweet of you boys to say, and I appreciate the complement dearie. But as I said I'm happily married, and the haggis recipe is still in its experimental stages", said Bella noticing the date on the calendar on the wall, "Let's all visit Earth for some fun."
"But mom, Maddie is a sinner soul. She can't-", said Zak only to be interrupted when he noticed the calendar his mom pointed to realizing the date, "Is it really that time already?"
"Yeah, let's go have some fun. What do you say lass, you wanna re-visit Earth one more time?" asked Bella at Maddie.
"But I thought I wasn't allowed to return since I died", said Maddie feeling a bit torn.
"True, but there's a little loophole that not many know about, or like to take advantage of. On one night a year, all sinners can visit Earth as long as they're back before sunrise or risk being completely erased from existence forever. We don't even need to go to the legal channels for this. Only the really desperate try to take advantage of this, and…well let's just say it doesn't turn up well for them. But you'll be fine since you have us", said Bella looking over at Verosika's group, "You guys wanna come along?"
The incubi and succubi grouped looked at each other and just shrugged their shoulders wanting a small change of scenery.
"Come on everyone, let's go have a bit of fun! It's the one night of the year where monsters and demons roam the streets, and party all night till the sun comes out!" proclaimed Bella, "Few rules though: no sex with humans, no enticing humans, no killing humans, no fighting unless it's self-defense."
"Damn it", muttered Millie dropping a large battleax with the incubi and succubi groaning in disappointment as well.
Earth
"Behold the night that is All Hallows Eve!" proudly proclaimed Bella still in her demon form with a more modest shirt covering her body, and a longer trench coat that went up to her ankles.
"It's already Halloween?!" asked a shocked Maddie looking around a town with children dress upped as all kinds of monsters, demons, and ghouls going from house to house collecting candy, "I-I can't believe I-I'm back."
"You okay Maddie?" asked Zak in a concern tone seeing her overwhelmed with emotions.
"Y-Yes, it's just…"
"Breath little lass. I know it's a lot to take in, but don't forget that you're still bound to Hell, and this is only for one night and nothing more", said Bella in a comforting tone while Maddie wiped away her tears.
"The good thing is, we don't need human disguises as long as we say it's a costumes. Let's go crash some parties. Might even go trick-or-treating for some sweets", said Bella leading the group into the crowd.
"I guess it does explain why I'm suddenly dressed like this", said Maddie looking down to see herself wearing what looked like a bloodstained white prom dress, "Am I Carrie White?"
"Well it's not too bad I guess", said Verosika wearing a sleeveless leather outfit with a popped up collar, arm length leather gloves, high-heeled thigh-high boots, and a zipper on the front partially zipped down showing a modest amount of cleavage. She also had on large cop sunglasses ganging in the middle of her cleavage where her zipper was, "Who the fuck am I? I feel like I belong in some weird zombie video game or something."
"It's okay, but I like my real clothes better", said Kiki wearing a black sleeveless leotard, black arm bands around her upper arms, black leather gloves, black high-heeled boots, and a headband around her forehead just below her horns, "Guess being a sexy demon ninja girl is kind of nice."
"I like it", said Apple wearing a white frilly shirt with a red bustier corset on top, white stockings, red strapped shoes, a black frilly skirt going down to the middle of her thighs, and a small red cloak behind her.
Chuckle "Whatever you say Red Riding Hood", chuckled Kiki with Verosika partially laughing at her look.
"What's wrong with it? It's cute", said Apple confusingly.
"Yeah, I'm planning on taking it off later", said Coco wearing a silver mini dress that stopped halfway through her thighs, a silver headband, and white go-go boots, "Then we can boogie all night."
"Easy with the dirty talk. Remember, we're here to blend in", said Bella looking back at them.
"I don't know about you guys, but I look good at least", said Kat wearing a blue shirt with a padded red vest, jeans, and white sneakers as he took out a comb to brush his hair.
"In the 80s maybe. What's with the life vest?" asked Josh.
"Beats looking like some retard who didn't know what to dress up as", said Kat making Josh look at his outfit a blue and white jock outfit with jeans and sneakers that hard bright yellow letters on the back spelling out his name.
"The fuck! Why am I a dumb jock?!"
"Hey, look, I escaped prison", said Ace excitedly wearing a broken straitjacket with his sleeves going over his hands, white pants, and brown boots.
"Ace, were you dropped as a baby?" asked Milky wearing dark purple shirt with one of the sleeves over her shoulder showing a blank tank top underneath, a black belt around her waist, black pants with star shaped cutouts around her knees, and white boots.
"I think so. There were many times when I blacked out when I was younger", said Ace rubbing his chin.
"Okay, what the actual fuck am I wearing?" said Loona wearing a black outfit with arm length fingerless gloves, black stockings that were ripped near her canine digits, and a red poncho that had black spider web designs on it, "I like spiders, but I'm not wearing this. I look like some badly drawn goth girl from some cheap ass cartoon."
"I think it looks good. Kind of cute", said Zak wearing a black duster coat that reached up to his ankles, a black shirt underneath with black pants containing empty holsters at his sides, black leather boots, and a pair of sunglasses hanging from his shirt.
"So what're you supposed to be? The Matrix?" asked Loona in a rhetorical tone snickering.
"Great movie, good stunts, badass clothing, that movie had it all. Besides, I certainly love the sexy goth look", chuckled Zak making Loona blush.
"Carrie also deserved a little love as well, much like a naughty teacher I know", said Zak hugging Maddie and Loona making them blush.
"Zak, Honey, you can undress them later. Right now we're here to enjoy Hallows Eve with Maddie", said Bella hugging her son with his girlfriends.
"Can I keep this?" asked Tex in a black suit outlining his muscular physique, a white buttoned shirt, a black tie, and was holding a silver rifle-like blaster weapon with glowing lights, and a pair of dark sunglasses, "Cause I make this look good."
Mm-hmm "You sure do hunky hound", said Milky licking her lips.
"Is Tex a secret agent now?" asked Ace making his friends facepalm at his questions.
"Let's go Hannibal, apparently the costume doesn't come with the brains", Josh pushing Ace to catch up with the group.
"Who's Hannibal?" asked Ace making Josh groan out loud.
"Don't worry too much about it Ace", said Kat putting on a multicolored cap with holes on top for his horns, "Almost makes me wish I had a DeLorean for real."
"It's a bit hard to walk in this", said Moxxie wearing a white frilly shirt, a blood red vest with gold buttons, a red bowtie, a black suit, black pants, a gold medal around his neck with a purple strap, and a long bat-like cape with a velvet interior with a popped up collar held by a gold chain near his neck, "Am I dressed as Bela Lugosi?"
"Aww, Mox-Mox, don't you look ravishing", said Millie wearing a simple black outfit showing a modest amount of her cleavage, and slits on the side showing off her legs making Moxxie stare at her speechlessly, "Moxxie, you okay?"
Moxxie could only drool a bit reliving the passionate fornication he had with his wife wanting to take her again, "Honey you look…drop dead gorgeous."
Giggle "Moxxie", giggled Millie blushing at her husband's complement.
"Hey! Count and Lady Dork-ula, we're gonna leave you behind if you don't catch up", called out Loona with the two imps catching up to their group.
They went to a couple of houses grabbing candy with many people confused at their appearances, while others complemented on how realistic their "costumes" looked. Maddie was excited to be back on Earth, and enjoying her time back. She was even enjoying some of the treats while exchanging some with her girlfriend making her feel like a kid again. She even spotted some of her former students as she saw them trick-or-treating with their parents.
Maddie contemplated on how much her life and afterlife has changed since her death, and wondered if her murderous rage was actually a good thing. She knew that because she was a sinner she couldn't leave the Pride Ring, and worst of all she couldn't get pregnant no matter how much she tried. To her it was a blessing, and also a curse. She always wanted to start a family of her own, a dream that was taken from her partially because of her ex-husband's fault, but ever since she started dating Zak and Loona she has had some dreams where she and Loona had started a family with him causing her to sometimes wake up crying. This was something she could never give him, and has talked to him about it. Loona of course offered that if she ever did decide to let Zak knock her up, Maddie would be their second mom making her happy, but it still hurt her emotionally.
"Maddie?" asked Loona shaking Maddie out of her stupor noticing the worried looks on her lovers, "We lost you there for a second."
"Is everything okay?" asked Zak.
"Sorry, just thinking back about all that happened, before and now", said Maddie twiddling a piece of candy in her hands.
"Now you know one of reasons why some sinners don't wish to come back", said Bella hugging her from behind, "The past can be painful to those who managed to hold onto their innocence like you. Sometimes I wonder just how harshly you all were judged."
"What do you mean?" asked Maddie.
"Sinners can return to Earth on this night that part is true. What I didn't mention, was that they needed to have some innocence to them as well. Innocence such as loved ones you wish to help to prevent them from suffering the same fate as you. It's a comforting thought when you think about it. Sadly this doesn't always end up well as they lose their innocence over time, and thus can never return back here to Earth. That's why you never see those who truly embrace their inner darkness going back like the Overlords. Why the murderers and wicked souls are doomed to eternity in Hell without even a chance to come back. It's a surprising thing that I learned from our teacher, but it was a harsh lesson nonetheless. We managed to crossover because of you Maddie, because you hold a strong innocence still, and you hold some love for us. For that, I truly thank you from the bottom of my heart", said Bella comforting her making Maddie cry overcome with various emotions. Zak, Loona, Verosika, and her crew were crying some tears as well feeling a bit touched at how highly Maddie saw them as well.
"There, there, dearie, no need for those kinds of tears now. We're here to celebrate you. This is your special night, so let's go do what you want. Where should we go next?" asked Bella in an encouraging tone.
"Well um…there was this Halloween Block Party where I use to live. There were dancing, candies, some Halloween alcohol beverages for adults-"
"I'm sold", said Loona hugging Maddie.
"Count me in", said Milky sucking on a lollipop.
"Bounce houses-"
"Is there an age limit?!" asked Apple and Ace at the same time with stars in their eyes.
"A Karaoke Contest-", said Maddie with her tail slightly wagging in excitement.
"Oh yeah, we're gonna clean house", said Verosika high-fiving Kiki.
"And a Halloween Costume contest."
"It's in the bag for me", said Josh popping his collar.
"Not if I get it first jock boy. Everyone loves a sharp suit", said Tex straightening his tie.
"There's even some games with prizes for everyone", said Maddie clapping excitedly.
"Prizes?!" asked Millie excitedly.
"They better be fair", grumbled Moxxie angrily remembering Loo-Loo Land.
"And just what we're looking for. Let's go have some fun before he have to head back", said Bella with Maddie leading the way.
Pumpkin Patch
Wicked Laughter
"Why do you get to summon our lord, Gramalkin?" asked an elderly woman in a jealous tone with matted silver hair, warts on her face, and a long crooked nose.
"We went over this Schwarzkatze. You've never summoned our Lord before, and I've been given his blessing to summon him this night of Halloween", said a green-skinned elderly woman with leaves popping out of her black robes, white matted hair, and warts all over her face.
"It was your fault to being with when we were forced to flee the old country", said Schwarzkatze.
"It was your fault for not casting the right stunning spell that alerted the villagers. The Pumpkin Lord would've already been summoned with his roots spreading across the land. Now we have to start fresh, but at least the pumpkin patches here have been more than generous as they grow", said Gramalkin.
The two witches stood over a pumpkin patch with various large pumpkins that pulsed with energy, and vines popping out of the earth as it destroyed a nearby barn. The human inside appeared to be withered husks with vines being injected into their body, and other bodies being chopped up and used as ingredients for a large cauldron that Gramalkin had bubbling with an ominous blood red liquid boiling. A hand soon emerged from the cauldron from a human being boiled alive as he tried to make his escape.
Gramalkin, hearing the cauldron stir, grabbed a wooden spoon as she hit the dying human and tossed him back inside, "Once the Pumpkin Lord has been released, we can take over this town. His power will grow that even the denizens of Hell will tremble." Wicked Cackle
Several pumpkin headed scarecrow with sharp teeth, and human innards arrived dragging more victims towards the witches with several goblins crawling along the ground with their claws and jaws splattered in their victim's blood. One pumpkin scarecrow had a large monstrous set of teeth where his face should be, "Good, the Jack-O-Lanterns have returned with fresh 'ingredients'."
"You mean like the 'ingredient' that almost escaped your precious cauldron?" asked Schwarzkatze in an annoyed tone.
"Stop being such a pest, and prepare the army. We need to collect more for the Pumpkin Lord to appear", ordered Gramalkin.
Schwarzkatze growled in annoyance as an upside down pentagram appeared with every large pumpkin glowing. Each pumpkin soon glowed an ominous green color with their vines rapidly growing and expanding, and faces appearing with jagged teeth, "Go forth and collect every soul in town! For on this night on Halloween, every soul shall bow down to our master!"
The pumpkins soon marched towards the town ready to collect and kill every unsuspecting citizen. The witch sisters laughed with glee as her spell book soon started glow showing that their spell was working. Gramalkin threw a piece of rotten pumpkin into the cauldron as it absorbed some of the liquid forming into a full pumpkin with its roots seeping into cauldron.
Halloween Party
Bella and her group were enjoying their party with Millie laughing excitedly carrying a giant stuffed teddy bear that Moxxie won for her. Ace and Apple were jumping on the bounce house as if they were kids while Coco was bouncing all over the place unable to keep herself steady. Loona was tasting several alcohol mixes providing insight to the bartender. Maddie also won a giant stuffed teddy bear, and enjoying her time with Zak.
She grabbed a bag of treats for everyone to enjoy, and headed off to a costume contest, "We should enter Zak!"
Chuckle "Isn't it cheating that we're not technically in 'full' costume?" chuckled Zak in amusement.
"Well technically we're already in costume. The rules didn't say we have to be human or former human", giggled Maddie towards the sign-up sheet.
"Wow, I can see what you were saying. The orange sherbet and chocolate sauce do complement the vanilla vodka. The acidity really adds to the sweetness to it", said Bella trying one of Loona's suggestion.
"Right? Now if you want something a little harder…"
"Trust me lass, I get it good with my husband. Where do you think Zak inherited his giant dong from", smiled Bella drinking her cocktail.
"He told us he's never met his dad before. What's up with that?" asked Loona.
"Don't worry about it lass. He still watches over us, and he loves us very much. I tried to seduce him when we first met, and things just went from there. We made sweet love after that, and…well suddenly lust just wasn't that interesting to me. All I could think about was him. We started seeing each other more often, and then out came our little miracle Zak. He takes more after his father than he realizes. He really does wish he could see him though. He sends me letters every so often, and I share them with Zak. But it's still not the same without him being at my side", sighed Bella tracing her finger around the glass.
"Whoa, you really have it bad for your husband", said Loona drinking her cocktail.
"You're one to talk miss hellhound. Just how many times do you do it a night before you pass out from overlapping orgasms?" smirked Bella.
"Quite a bit actually", blushed Loona with her tail wagging, "I always lose track, but then he just keeps going and going-"
"And then he gets a bit mushy and kisses you in the middle of an orgasm that he just keeps pumping his load into you until you lose track of time. When you come to, he cuddles you while whispering sweet nothing into your ear that you just want to ravage him again for another round" giggled Bella shivering in delight.
"Exactly", smiled Loona.
"My husband's the same way. They just have this way of satisfying you that it just makes you want more, and they'll gladly give it to you that you just want to give your love and lust back to them as well. It's quite endearing really", said Bella understanding Loona, "You're girlfriend Maddie is quite interesting too. You said she was married once? What happened there?"
Thunder Rumble
"That's weird", said Bella narrowing her eyes on some multicolored lightning that was appearing the sky.
"You don't think-"
"Those aren't angels doing that", said Bella noticing several shadows move. She noticed several green glowing eyes approaching with vine-like tendrils about to reach to a kid.
Bella disappeared from view tackling the creature revealing a mutated monstrous pumpkin. Bell was confused about this when she noticed a green goblin like creature charging at her. She summoned her gun shooting through the pumpkin and blasted a hole through the goblin's chest with her pistol glowing in her seal to muffle the sound.
"The fuck was that?!" asked Loona creeped out by what she saw.
"Goblins. Nasty critters made by tainted souls who dabbled in witchcraft. This doesn't make any sense though. There hasn't been any goblins made by modern witches since the Dark Ages", said Bella examining the goblin and pumpkin monster, "And this pumpkin…this looks like a normal pumpkin, but its roots have…"
Bella saw the blood seeping out of its roots, and instantly recognized it, "Get everyone here now!"
"What is it?"
"I'll explain later, just get everyone here! We're gonna need their help!" ordered Bella seeing some dark clouds spiral in the distance, "To think you've come all this way ya wee beasty. This time I won't let you escape me again."
Several Minutes Later
"Mom! What's going on?" asked Zak approaching with the group when they noticed the dead goblin that Bella was cleaning up with her magic, "What is that thing?"
"Goblin, and this was just the scouting party. No doubt more are coming to collect every human here to sacrifice them in a ritual", said Bella shocking the group.
"Ritual?" asked Moxxie.
"Do any of you know about the Pumpkin Lord?" asked Bella.
"Pumpkin Lord? Isn't that some fairy tale made up by the humans in some foreign backwater country?" asked Josh.
"Not quite. The Pumpkin Lord was originally a demon from Hell. He was against Lucifer's and Lilith's reign, and the fool thought he could usurp them. He wasn't even a match for their power, and was banished to Earth when human civilization was still at its youngest during the Middle Ages. He managed to sway some humans to practice witchcraft, and create some servants for himself. He knows exactly when some sinners are able to visit Earth, and sucked out their power to add to his own. I was tasked with killing him, but he was able to elude me with the help of two of his oldest followers. Luckily, I was able to wound him greatly that his physical form was damaged. It looks like he's traveled all the way here bidding his time, and now that Hallows Eve is here once again, he's been able to gather enough souls to manifest himself once more. Judging by the size of this pumpkin, I'd say his followers have gathered plenty of sacrifices", said Bella incinerating the goblin corpse.
"Oh Crumbs, we need to leave now", said Moxxie.
"No, we're gonna kill him tonight. We can't let this town be sacrificed to the Pumpkin Lord. It's not fair for these people. They deserve to live their lives on Earth", said Bella confusing the imps, "Also if they do sacrifice a lot of people, and they end up in Hell, you're gonna have to deal with them if there are any surviving humans, and your business will be completely ruin."
"Oh Fuck no! Let's kill these overgrown vegetables!" said Millie pulling out her knife.
"Actually pumpkins are considered fruit, Honey", corrected Moxxie.
"Why you know that, is beyond me", said Loona in a bored tone.
"But we don't have any weapons", said Moxxie. Bella raised her hand creating a magic seal above her dropping down various weapons and guns in a large pile making Millie smile excitedly.
"Um Miss Bella, I hate to break it to you, but my crew and I aren't exactly the fighting type", said Verosika nervously.
"I know, which is why you'll be here making sure the humans are safe and distracted while we deal with this", said Bella shocking Verosika, "Hey, little imp, think you can handle this bad boy?"
Bella tossed Moxxie an automatic rifle making him stutter in disbelief, "Is this-wheeze-Is this wheeze-Is this a LWRC SMG45 with custom armor piercing rounds?!"
"Yup, all yours if you know how to handle that bad boy", said Bella loading up some weapons with Zak summoning his katana and grabbing some guns as well.
Squeal "Thank you so very much", wheezed Moxxie hugging his new favorite weapon.
"Millie, I think these suit you more", said Bella throwing her an twin tiger hook swords making the female imp stare in wide eye wonder.
"Oh yeah, momma loves you guys already!" said Millie twirling her new blades.
"Daddy likey a lot too", said Tex grabbing some spiked brass knuckles that had a charged battery.
"I'm going with you", said Maddie grabbing an axe, "I was actually having fun, and now I have to deal with some deranged gourd demon that wants to kill innocent lives. I'm not gonna let him ruin my one special night with my new friends and lovers."
"You've got a strong spirit lass. I can see why my son loves you too. Each of you grab a gun in case anything manages to slip by us. I want each of you to at least be able to protect yourselves. Verosika, you're gonna have to keep the crowd calm as best as you can", ordered Bella clacking a shotgun in her hands, "Let's go squash some gourds."
"Tex, you be careful out there", said Milky kissing her boyfriend.
"You know it babe", said Tex following the fighters outside of town.
"So…any ideas how we're gonna gather everyone around from being fed to some giant wannabe weed that wants to kill everyone?" asked Verosika.
"I may have an idea", said Kiki gesturing towards the Karaoke machine, "You up for putting on a free surprise concert?"
"Oh Yeah, that'll definitely do", smiled Verosika, "Kiki, Coco, Kat you're gonna be my back up. Josh, Milky, Ace, you three are gonna have to be the bodyguards for the crowd. Kill anything that moves and isn't human", ordered Verosika with her crew nodding in determination, "Let's show these humans how to really Trick-or-Treat."
Town Outskirts
"The hour is nigh, and ripe for the picking. Go gather them all! Kill, main, and torture for the arrival of our lord and master is at hand!" ordered Schwarzkatze cackling manically.
Bang
"I see you're still up to your old tricks you wrinkled old prune!" yelled a feminine voice when one of the pumpkins suddenly exploded.
"You!" growled Schwarzkatze in annoyance, "How did you follow us here demoness?!"
"Oh I wasn't actually following you. This just happens to be a happy coincidence on our part. When I saw the flashy magic show you and your sister like to put on to call that jobby filled lavvy heid gub gourd you call a lord, it was so obvious where you were. This time you won't escape with your lives, and I'll personally send you off to Oblivion itself."
"How dare you mock our lord slut! You don't scare us! This time, our army is stronger than ever that not even you can hope to stand up to our power!" boasted Schwarzkatze.
"Ooh, Such painful words coming from a Pajama-Wearing, Basket-Face, Slipper-Wielding, Clype-Dreep-Bachle, Gether-Uping-Blate-Maw, Bleathering, Gomeril, Jessie, Oaf-Looking, Scooner, Nyaff, Plookie, Shan, Milk-Drinking, Soy-Faced Shilpit, Mim-Moothed, Sniveling, Worm-Eyed, Hotten-Blaugh, Vile-Stoochie, Cally-Breek-Tattie?" yelled Bella transitioning into her Scottish accent.
The group looked at her in confusion and then towards Zak for answers while he prepped some of his guns, "What? Scotland Gaelic has a lot of ways to insult your enemies."
"How dare you…you…"
"A bit of tongued tied are we?! Perhaps one of your gaudy cats actually did us the favor of chocking on it!" goaded Bella.
"KILL THE BITCH!" ordered a red face Schwarzkatze with the horde moving in on Bella.
Town
"Happy Halloween!" yelled Verosika in a microphone that her crew managed to hook up to several speakers, "Is everyone having a good time?!"
The crowd cheered on giving off catcalls to Verosika earning the jealousy of some women, "Well I'm glad to hear it. So to celebrate here's a classic for all of you!"
Kiki was up on the stage holding an electric guitar with Kat sitting on a drum set as they began their song.
Guitar Rift Intro
Town Outskirt
Zak took the initiative to get into a runner stance, and instantly slashed through several pumpkins, and took out his gun to shoot through several goblins in the back as they charged towards his mother.
Yeah~
When I get high I get high on speed,
Top fuel funny car's a drug for me,
My heart,
Wow~! Kick start my heart.
"Finally managed to get the kill shot eh?" asked Bella smiling shooting through several pumpkins, and two from behind her thinking they could ambush her through her blind spot.
"Had a little help from Millie and Moxxie. Final push was from Blitzo though, even if he does like to push my buttons a lot", said Zak creating his seal around the muzzle of his gun and several seals in midair shooting several energy bullets at some oncoming goblins and pumpkins, "I wanted you to be proud of me, mom."
"Zak, Honey, I will always be proud of you! I just wanted to make sure you could properly defend yourself at least! As your mother, it's my job to make sure you're prepared for anything!" said Bella performing a high kick against an oncoming corpse with a pumpkin head, and shot a bullet from a gun strapped on her heel.
Always got the cops coming after me,
Custom-built bike doing 103,
My heart,
Wow~! Kick start my heart.
"You have guns in your shoes?" asked a surprised Loona smashing a goblin into a pumpkin before biting him in half, "The fuck! You really are the most badass succubus I know!"
"I'll take that as a complement dearie! Zak, be a dear!" said Bella smiling as she performed several kicks shooting off her guns, and shot several goblins a great distance away. She readied her second gun shooting at her side as the bullet ricochet off Zak's katana hitting a pumpkin scarecrow behind Millie.
Ooh, are you ready girls?
Ooh, are you ready now?
Whoa, yeah
Kick start my heart, give it a start,
Whoa, yeah, baby
Millie slashed viciously through several goblins laughing manically as she beheaded another one, and hooked a third goblin from his leg throwing him into a jumping pumpkin's mouth before it exploded.
Whoa, yeah
Kick start my heart, hope it never stops
Whoa, yeah, baby~, yeah
Guitar Solo
Moxxie was expertly shooting through several pumpkin monsters, and even shooting some vines to set them up for his wife as she slashed through them in one strike, "Nice one Mox!" Oof
A large muscular scarecrow appeared smiling maniacally grabbed the imps as it wrapped it's vines around them squeezing them tightly, "Hey ugly!" yelled Maddie with her eyes glowing red, "Let go of my friends!"
Skydive naked from an aeroplane,
Or a lady with a body from outer space,
My heart, my heart
Kick start my heart
Maddie swung her axe down chopping off the scarecrow's hands shocking the monster, until it laughed showing that its vines reached out and reattached the severed limps, as it gave off a mocking laugh, "Someone's definitely overcompensating for his human side", mocked Maddie making the scarecrow mad.
Say I got trouble, trouble in my eyes
I'm just looking for another good time
My heart, my heart
Kick start my heart
The scarecrow reared back its fist wanting to beat the sinner demon badly when Maddie reared back her fist as well. Their fists collided smashing the scarecrow's arms completely taking it by surprised. Maddie punched the scarecrow's head smashing it to pieces with one punch, grabbed the axe with her tail, and threw the axe hitting a goblin in the back. A mutated scarecrow with jagged rows of teeth shredded the goblin to pieces as it charged towards her.
Roar
The mutated scarecrow roared loudly at Maddie's face while she stared at it with a deadpan expression, "That supposed to scare me?"
Thud
ROAR
Tex appeared in front of her roaring ferociously knocking the mutated scarecrow back as it emitted a small whimper, Tch "Pussy."
Wham
Yeah, are you ready girls?
Yeah, are you ready now, now, now?
Whoa, yeah!
Kick start my heart, give it a start!
Whoa, yeah, b-b-b-baby~!
Whoa, yeah
Kick start my heart, hope it never stops!
Tex punched the scarecrow through its chest as he pulled it in close munching on its pumpkin head effectively destroying it, Spit "This is why I hate pumpkin pie."
Schwarzkatze couldn't believe her eyes as their monster army was slowly being cut down to size from the bounty hunter succubus and her small gang of demons. Zak, Millie, and Loona charged at full speed cutting down many monsters in their path. Zak instantly stopped, and took out another pistol shooting several goblins that were about to pounce on Loona and Millie. He crouched down feeling a pair of small feet on his back, and used him as a springboard to jump high into the air revealing Moxxie holding a rifle in his free hand instantly shooting several pumpkins that were approaching the girls. He landed rolling the ground unleashing a barrage of bullets at several charging goblins shredding them to pieces leaving only blood splatters on the ground.
Slow Guitar Tempo
Whoa, yeah, baby~
When we started this band,
All we needed, needed was a laugh.
Years gone by, I'd say we've kicked some ass.
When I'm enraged or hittin' the stage,
Adrenaline rushing through my veins,
And I'd say we're still kickin' ass.
"Leaving so soon? We were just getting started", said Bella sneaking up on Schwarzkatze while the elderly woman seethed with anger at her. She whistled loudly confusing Bella when roots started popping out from the ground catching the succubus off-guard.
I say, ooh ah, kick start my heart
I hope it never stops
And to think, we did all of this to rock
Fast Guitar Tempo
Whoa, yeah
Kick start my heart, give it a start
Whoa, yeah, b-b-b-baby!
Whoa, yeah
Kick start my heart, hope it never stops
Whoa, If you wanna be my baby
Bella growled in frustration shooting all four of her guns at the roots popping up when she ran out of bullets, "Fuck!"
Bella clicked her heels against the ground revealing bladed heels, and started slashing through the roots freeing herself just as a large pumpkin began unearthing itself to swallow her.
"Mom!" yelled out Zak getting her attention.
Bella flapped her wings flying straight towards him when Zak threw two pistols at her direction, and slashed at several monsters that were behind him. Bella grabbed the pistols creating a large seal in front of her, and fired an energy blast completely obliterating it. She fired another blast into the air before it split apart into several smaller blasts hitting several more buried pumpkins that were waiting to ambush them.
Guitar Solo
Whoa, yeah
Kick start my heart, hope it never stops
Whoa, yeah, baby
Whoa, yeah
Kick start my heart, give it a start!
Whoa, yeah
Okay boys, let's rock the house~!
Guitar Solo
Kickstart my heart!
"Well that was a fun warmup", said Bella checking her ammunition, "What do you say we go pop in and say 'hi' to a bit of history that needs to be finished."
"That was seriously hot", said Millie with her mouth hanging open.
Pumpkin Patch
"Sister! Sister!" yelled out Schwarzkatze to Gramalkin, "That succubus from before! The bounty hunter! She's here! And she's not alone! She's cutting down our army as we speak! She's too strong for us! Summon the Pumpkin Lord if we're to have any chance of survival!"
Gramalkin growled in annoyance looking over at the rotten pumpkin that was growing the cauldron with her grimoire glowing brightly. She took in a deep breath as the cauldron started to glow brighter as she recited the spell.
"Summon the Pumpkin Lord!
Fear opens the door!
Blood is gathered!
Screams carry on the night wind!
Souls are taken!
Bones to bind!
Roots dig deep and take hold!
Here is the Pumpkin Lord,
He grows Halloween!"
Wicked Laughter
Gramalkin laughed victoriously as the pumpkin grew at a rapid pace destroying the cauldron it was in. It's roots and vines twirled around and dug into the earth as the remaining pumpkins grew in size as well growing monstrous faces when they appeared to bow down to the giant pumpkin that kept growing. The two witches bowed down as well with the rotten pumpkin growing to tremendous size with a deep guttural laugh echoing throughout the patch. It pulsed with energy when out emerged a grotesque orange demon with two curved stem horns curving back and down towards his cheeks, he had yellow sclera with red glowing eyes, jagged teeth, green boils on his skin with rotten flesh hanging from him, and green root-like arms as he breathed in the cool night air, "I live again! You have done well my servants! Tonight we shall feast on the souls and flesh of-"
"Blah, blah, blah, blah", interrupted Bella getting all their attention, "What is it with you maniacal types and monologuing?"
"I think they just like the sound of their own voice. It definitely has to be some kind of psychological response of not getting enough attention as a child. It's sad really", said Maddie twirling her axe.
"Whatever the case, it sure leaves these fuckers wide open for an attack. It's a wonder how they managed to avoid anything", laughed Loona.
"Luck of the draw. Bound to run out sooner or later", said Maddie shrugging her shoulders.
"I like them", smiled Bella to her son.
"Those are my girls", chuckled Zak.
"Belladonna, we meet again. You may have injured me in our last encounter, but-"
"And again with the monologuing! It's really quite annoying. Let's just get to the good part already where I kill you so we can go back to having a good time at the party", groaned Bella shooting a pumpkin near the witches.
"Seize her! Kill the rest!" ordered the Pumpkin Lord.
Loona charged in on all fours ripping apart as many goblins as she could. She smashed several pumpkins, and threw one into the air just as Maddie appeared slicing it in half landing in front of her. Both girls charged forward trying to clear a path. Moxxie shot several oncoming monsters to cover their flanks while Millie rushed in to help them deal with the remaining horde. Tex arrived tackling several larger scarecrows as he got down on all fours emitting a feral growl before charging in biting their necks and head.
"Zak! Combined your powers with mine!" said Bella.
Zak stood next his mother combining their seals placing their guns into them. They both pulled the trigger at the same time unleashing a large energy blast killing a large part of their monster army and Gramalkin, just as her sister pushed her into the blast to save herself. The Pumpkin Lord avoided most of the blast with several of his minions jumping in front of him to take the blunt of the attack, but still took some damage. One of his horns cracked and split apart from his head making him growl in annoyance with parts of his body being blown away.
Zak charged forward with his katana in his hand cutting down some goblins and scarecrows when he disappeared from view hoping to hit the Pumpkin Lord with one final attack when a large wooden hand blocked him. Zak's eyes widen in shock as several trees started to walk up towards them showing the same monstrous faces that the pumpkins had, "Did you really think I would just control pumpkins? This entire land has been cursed by me! This is my domain! I have gathered all the souls of various mortals increasing my power that not even-"
Clack
"Like I said before, 'monologuing'. Now do me a favor and die already", smirked Bella placing a gun to the back of the Pumpkin Lord's head.
BANG
The Pumpkin Lord's head blew up with his body falling to the ground making all the monsters growl in pain before they stopped moving entirely. Bella grabbed her son using her wings to slow his fall slowly descending to the ground, "You really have to teach me how to fly. I can't fly straight at all", said Zak.
"Of course Honey, but first we'll have to buy you some pads and a crash helmet. Trust me, crash landing is not fun, but it is part of the process", said Bella hugging him.
"No kidding", mumbled Zak with his mother cleaning his cheek with her thumb, "Mom!"
"Come now, you have a smudge on your cheek. I want you to look your best for your girls", said Bella in a motherly tone.
"Is it over?" panted Loona starting to feel a bit tired from the large number of enemies that kept popping up.
"Almost. There's just one more thing I need to take care of", said Bella aiming her gun at Schwarzkatze, "You really didn't think I'd forget about you, did you?"
"Wait! Wait! I'll dedicate my life for you! I will serve you as-"
Bang
"Typical coward. We're burning moonlight, and she has the gall to beg for her life", said Bella after shooting her between her eyes.
"I can't believe you managed to do this yourself mom. Are all your targets like this guy? He may not have been strong, but numbers do have an advantage sometimes", said Zak.
"Zak, Honey, anyone call pull a trigger to kill a target, but what really sets you aside, is how clever you are when you go after a target. Be it assassination, love, business, as long as you set your mind to it and know what you're doing, you'll be able to plan ahead accordingly. Now let's go back and celebrate before the sun rises. We only have a couple of hours left before dawn", said Bella, "I'll clean up here. You all go ahead."
"But-"
"No 'buts' young man, your sinner girlfriend only gets one night here on Earth, and we don't know how long that'll last. It's best to go and be with her to make as many memories as you can for when you look back on these days and tell it your children. Now run along", said Bella gently pushing him towards the retreating group.
Zak caught up with the group as they headed back to town with Bella waving at them. She sighed in frustration about to clean up the mess they made when she saw some roots starting to absorb the blood that was spilled by monsters. The roots even started to devour the bodies of the witches with the Pumpkin Lord's head starting to reform, "Did you think it would be that easy to kill me?! I am the Pumpkin Lord, and I will-"
THUNDER
Bella shielded her eyes as a bolt of lightning hit the pumpkin demon effectively burning his body in bright blue flames, and she could feel a small cold wind blow part of her hair. She smiled gently feeling relaxed smelling a hint of roses in the air. She pulled back her hair a bit and looked at the once discarded land that was bathed in the moonlight showing that the land had now been blessed.
"Love you too, babe. Until we meet again. Say 'hi' to your sister for me", whispered Bella walking away to catch up with the group.
Song is "Kickstart My Heart" by Motley Crue. I used the cover version sung by Halocene, Sershen, and Zarftskaya on Youtube.
