"Rise and shine Young Master you have a full day today." Pringles said as he pulled open Harry's Westeros map curtains. They where a commissioned map of the continent of Westeros from the North and South from the official Song of Ice and Fire maps in every book. His Four Poster Bed curtains where maps of Braavos, Vaes Dothrak, Asshai and Old Valyria.
"Pringles how could you?" Harry squirmed under his Great Houses quilt. also part of his Song of Ice and Fire themed room/Bathroom. It had the Great Houses of Westeros and their banners/icons/Mottos.
"Come young Master it's bath time again. Your mother is expecting you for breakfast."
"Screw that raging she witch." Harry yawned as he shrugged on his dragon themed robe. Complete with dragon tail.
"She is still your mother."
"Not for long if Dad has anything to say about it." Harry said as he bathed himself and Pringles washed his hair.
"Did you enjoy yesterday with your father and sister?"
"It was fun! Did you hear I got to ride on a dragon?"
"It was on 666 news."
"Oh shit." Harry said.
"Swearing is unbecoming if a Goetia." Pringle's slapped the back of Harry's head as he brushed his beak and tongue.
"I want to know what you think you where doing yesterday?" Stella demanded quietly as she sipped hot tea.
Harry was picking his words carefully. It was when she was quiet like this that Stella was her most vicious and evil.
"The robot started attacking me." Harry said. "I had to retaliate or else it would have stained my honor as a member of the Ars Goetia and heir to Grandfathers throne."
"Did you have to burn down the amusement park on a bloody dragon?!" She shouted and threw the teacup at him which he caught in his magical aura and set gently on the table.
"Throw something at me again." Harry said, slamming his hands on the table himself in anger. "I dare you. When Grandfather Paimon finds out-"
"He's not going to find out." Stella said. "Because if he does, then when the divorce DOES happen I will demand custody of Octavia."
"You fucking Bitch." Harry hissed. Octavia would likely be miserable with their mother. Stella knew this which was why she was blackmailing Harry to behave or else. "Or you would be. If not for one little thing-" Harry pointed to the upper corner of the room.
A recording crystal. A specialty of his Uncle Andrealphus. He hadn't asked why Harry had wanted one and said he didn't need to know. Only for his favorite nephew. Harry had put it up in the corner quietly before Stella's party the other day hoping to catch her badmouthing Stolas to show Paimon. Boy did he catch some good shit!
"You little bastard! How dare you!" Stella threw her plates and utensils aside only for Harry to magically set them on the table again to her anger that she couldn't break things anymore.
"I think this little recording crystal should be enough to screw you over when the divorce is finalized." Harry said as he summoned the crystal to his hand. "Pringles." He handed it to the small imp who immediately left the room to put it in his backpack. "You'll never find it." He teased before slipping out of the room.
He heard Stella rage and finally start breaking things. He'd repair them later. "Pringles tell the staff to leave the mess I'll repair everything later."
"Of course sir." Pringle's said as he slipped the crystal into Harry's backpack. "Are you certain you can trust these Imps?" He asked.
"Hey if it affects Mr. Blitzos bottom line I'm sure he'd do anything I ask him." Harry said as he hugged Stolas on his way out the door.
It would be Harry's first day as the first ever IMP Intern. His job would be to learn all he could from these assassin Imps. He imagined it would be like Arya Stark learning the ways of the Faceless Men Of Braavos.
Harry hummed with his backpack in his lap as Pringles drove him toward downtown Imp City.
Millie was outside their office building with a sign saying IMP Intern Welcome!
"If anything should happen to a hair on his head, Heaven won't even be able to save you from Lord Stolas legions." Pringles warns Millie as Harry hopped out and shouldered his dragon egg trio backpack.
"Welcome to the building, we share this building with about five other businesses. Millie explained as they entered the elevator. "Whatcha got in there?" She asked. "Safety precautions." She explained.
"Snacks, a soda, books to read, taser." He brought out a taser and made it spark.
"Ooo."
"Pringles insisted I take it." Harry shrugged. "Cuddle Time Dad." Harry brought out a Plush version of Stolas.
"Cuddle Time?"
"I had separation anxiety issues when I was a baby. I was actually a homeless nobody baby being taken care of by an elderly homeless imp best he could. One day Grandfather Paimon was meeting family at a restaurant and he felt my magic out of control in the alley next door and promised the imp he'd take care of me. Much more a kind act than he's known for, I ended up being more magically powerful and in control of it than all my other cousins and last year I was legitimized and named the precautionary heir to Grandfathers throne." Harry told the imp.
"So you have some feelings of abandonment from your imp guardian passing away?"
"That's what the therapist said when Mum and Dad consulted one. He suggested a plush toy would help me and it has." Harry said hugging his plush dad. It also hides a taser." He pulled back Stolas' head and the taser sparked. He put Cuddle Time Taser Dad back in his backpack.
"I get the feeling you and I are gonna get along juuuust fine." Millie said as the elevator reached their floor. "Here's our floor."
"Your highness, welcome to IMP." Moxxie said shaking Harry's hand.
"Oh I'm not 'Your Highness' yet." Harry said. "Both Grandpa And Dad have to pass before that happens."
"Is that my new Intern? Come on in I'm just orientating a client!" Blitzo called from his office door.
"Well, that's Blitzos office, that door there is the break room, be sure to mark your food yours. Restrooms are marked and the water cooler is right by our receptionist Loonas desk."
"Cool a Hellhound. Hi!" Harry said eagerly to Loona who helped as he popped up.
"How do you do that?" She demanded.
"It's a gift." The parrot boy shrugged.
"Well don't bother me. I'm busy." Loona said as she picked back up her Hellhound Monthly she dropped. Her phone rang. "Hello IMP." She wrote down information. "Sure come tomorrow at 10."
Harry shrugged and walked down a hallway where every picture except one named Loona Employee of the Month. Moxxie was the last one and it wasn't a very flattering picture.
Harry watched a muscular red themed sinner walk out and leave.
"Glad Your here kiddo we got a staff meeting in a few minutes in the conference room there." He pointed at the door next to his office. "Just settle in and we'll get started K?"
Harry went to the break room and put his soda in the fridge and his backpack on the break room table before getting out his tablet computer and his stylus to take notes...
"What about a car wash?"
"This is Hell Millie and no one cares about cars being clean in this part of town." Blitzo rejected the idea. "Oh what about a billboard?!" His eyes sparkled with rapture at the idea.
"We can't afford a billboard sir." Moxxie said, looking destitute.
"Real helpful Moxxie really glad your in the room right now." Blitzo snapped back.
"Flyers are inexpensive compared to Billboards." Harry suggested as he took notes. "According to my quick research the nearest copy store prints flyers for 10 Souls per 100 copies."
"Excellent idea kiddo! See what'd I tell you guys? So Harry here's your task for the day, design a flyer IMP would be proud to display all over the seven rings."
"Got it Boss!" Harry saluted the older imp and opened his art app to start brainstorming ideas.
"Well that solves one problem sir but we have another. How are we going to pay our bills in the meantime? And you also spend our paychecks for this month to create a jingle for the company that you then spent additional money we don't have to run it for 3 straight hours on a channel NOBODY WATCHES." Moxxie slammed his hands on the table in aggravation.
Harry and Millie giggles together.
"What's so funny?" Blitzo demanded. He walked around the table to see Harry's tablet.
Harry had drawn Blitzo in a crude cartoonish manner with penises all over him and the words I heart Donkey Dick.
"Oh you think that's funny huh? This is a good night for me." Blitzo countered back.
"Sorry sir, it's gone see?" The Parrot boy showed Blitzo the drawing had been deleted.
"Mhm. Next time I'm taking that tablet and not giving it back for a week. Focus on your task." The imp ordered.
"Got it Boss."
Alright have you all forgotten what kind of service we provide?" Blitzo demanded before pulling out a remote.
They all looked toward the tv in the room as said jungle began to play.
"When you want somebody gone and you don't wanna wait too long, call the Immediate Murder Professionals."
"Oh so that's why you need my Dads grimoire." Harry said. "You need access to the living world for your company to work."
"Unless...you have one of your own? I remember your old man got his around 10."
"Sorry, Grandfather Paimon hasn't presented me with my own grimoire yet. It'll probably be next year on my birthday and even then I'll have to study and practice the spells in it for years maybe decades to be as good as Dad is at using grimoire spells." Harry shook his head. "Nope nope nope I won't be able to use a portal spell for a while."
"Fuck me there goes that idea." Blitzo snapped his fingers.
"This company is such a mess." Moxxie said putting his finger and thumb on his nose bridge.
"You guys are all fucking assholes." Said the kid on the stretcher. "Except him. He's the only one of you with any kind of integrity here in this room." Eddie pointed to the Parrot boy.
"Thanks." Harry smiles.
"You," Eddie points to Blitzo, "are a selfish, greedy clown. And I'm a kid, we're supposed to like clowns! Even the creepy ones!"
"Hey that's not very-"
"If I wanted to talk to a spineless jackass I'd rip out your spine and ask you some shit."
"That's my husband your talking too you little brat!" Millie defended the deflated looking Moxxie.
Eddie laughed. "That's your husband? I figured you for a slut." He wagged his finger as he spoke. "I didn't think you needed dick that bad." He made his thumb and forefinger come close together. "And you!" He points to Loona who hadn't really spoken hardly during the whole meeting.
"What? What about me?" She asked looking up from her phone.
"Nothing, I don't talk to dogs. I'm a cat person."
"Your so fucked." Harry said popping up next to Eddie making him cry out.
"On a scale of one to dead-" Eddie asked as he sat with his legs dangling.
"Oh totally dead." Harry said. "But I'll give you some comforting thoughts. Your a human child under ten. You haven't had the chance to commit any great sins yet. You'll most likely go to Heaven."
"Oh fuck! Hey guys I just got a text from the client. Guess he was the right target after all.
"Who?" Harry asked.
"Him?" Moxxie asked.
"Me?" Eddie asked.
"He wanted us to kill an actual child?" Blitzo asked.
"That's what he's saying."
"Well Christ on a stick I guess there is a God." Blitzo said before firing his flintlock and Eddie fell back with a bullet in his brain.
At least it was a quick death. Harry thought.
"You where right."
"Huh?"
"What the Fuck?" Loona asked as they watched Eddie descend from on high.
Eddie came floating down through the ceiling with angels wings and a halo. "St. Peter said I was good to go. I just wanted to say, thanks for not letting me be scared." Eddie shook Harry's hand.
"No problem dude." Harry said.
"By the way my mom is a total bitch. Eddie said. "Scare the shit outta her." He told Blitzo.
"Can do kiddo." Blitzo said with a salute.
"Please if anyone sees my little Eddie Hoh!" A large bloody sack was dropped into the blonde woman's lap. Eddie was right. His mom was soaking up the attention. She didn't even use an actual picture of Eddie in the news!
"Your welcome!" Blitzo said as he and Harry waved down at her.
Kids die for freeeeee!!!!
"And that concludes my first day as an IMP Intern." Harry told Pringles as he drove Harry home.
"Exciting, if distasteful."
"I could always use a new skill set Pringles. You never know what's going to happen to you if your Hell Nobility."
"Very true Young Master, very true."
To be continued...
I'm gonna try to do episodes while from now on. I hope you got the reference to Brandon Rogers characters!
