Chapter 12: Turf Mall War

Not long ago, an explosion appears at the front of the mall as Angel, Crystal, and Cherri are doing some shopping for Crystal's new little pet. The glowing red eyes appear from the fog and then slithers out to reveal the same snake demon and he is holding a missile launcher.

"Hello lowly sinners! Hope you don't mind me coming here so that I can make this territory my own! If you all don't get out, you'll be obliterated, but you will either way so who gives a crap!" Pentious says.

He then maniacally laughs as he begins to fire the missile launcher at anything at sight. At the same time, the Egg Boise begins to charge with weapons, tools, and other kinds of weapons in their hands. The demons either try to attack and get blasted, or run away and risk getting crushed by the debris. Angel, the girls, and the two pigs see what is happening and are kind of annoyed to see the slithering demon again.

Crystal mutters, "Oh great, not him again."

"He doesn't even own this part of Hell, and this mall is already owned by someone," Angel says, turning to the girls.

"Really now? Who owns this mall anyway?" Crystal asks, curiously.

Angel hesitates at first as he doesn't want to tell her who really owns this mall.

Then calmly says, "You don't wanna know."

"Yeah. I really think you don't," Cherri says.

"Why do I get the feeling that this owner of this place is one of those Overlords and that we need to get out before this gets ugly," Crystal says.

"That's probably best. Besides, Vaggie will chew my ass out if we get ourselves involved with another…" Angel says.

"Well well wel, it looks like we have some company," A familiar voice says.

The three turn their heads to see Sir Pentious and now see a few of his Egg Boise looking at them and look at them with sinister and vicious looks in their eyes.

"If it isn't the Happy Bomb Thrower, the Stripped Perverted freak, and his Thread wielding girlfriend," Pentious says with an evil grin.

This makes the cyclops and the spiders dumbfounded to hear the remark.

"Did he just say I'm your girlfriend, Angel?" Crystal asks, embarrassed.

Angel groans, "He did, and I wished he didn't think that. We barely even knew each other."

"Yeah. and you're mostly into men than women," Cherri adds.

She may not say or express it, Crystal is a bit disappointed to hear what Cherri says about Angel.

Suddenly, Pentious points his finger to Crystal with anger, "It's a good thing I found you, little miss spider girl! I haven't forgotten the humiliation that you gave to me and my Bois! Trapping us in an egg sack and leaving us hanging!"

"You're still mad about that?" Crystal asks.

"Forget this, you do realize that you're actually trying to take over a territory that belongs to a powerful demon. If I were you, I get the fuck out before they catch you here," Angel sternly says.

Pentious laughs and says, "Of course I know that, why else would I bring my Bois here and have them equipped with powerful weapons! Not even an Overlord can withstand the likes of I!"

Crystal mutters, "Is he this freaken stupid?"

"You can say that again," Angel adds.

"And of course, I will have the pleasure to get rid of you three once and for all," Pentious says and laughs as he hisses.

Cherri then brings out a bomb, "So then, are you saying that you wanna fight, old man?"

Crystal asks, concerned, "Cherri, what are you doing?"

"If this slithering ass wants to pick a fight, then I'm going to give him one," Cherri says.

Angel smirks, "I'm with Cherri on this one."

"But we promised Charlie that we won't get into a fight while we're out," Crystal says.

"Crystal sometimes getting into a fight is the only way to survive, you have to fight Pentious and those Drug Dealers," Angel says.

"You do have a point," Crystal says, sounding skeptical.

"Are you finished talking?!" Pentious shouts, catching the group's attention.

Pentious then holds out his missile launcher, "I'm ssssoooo young to enjoy blasting you to pieces!"

Then fires the missile launcher.

"Look out!" Crystal panics.

Angel and Crystal grab their pets and dodge out of the way as the rocket blows to the ground and destroys part of the floor into a small crater. Cherri bomb quickly lights up her bomb and throws it at him, causing a sparkling explosion.

"Alright, you really want a fight, then you are going to get it," Cherri says.

"Oh, you wanna go missy! I'm happy to oblige," Pentious says.

Then shouts, "Get them, Bois!"

The Egg Bois then charge after hearing their leader's command. Cherri then begins to spin around like a tornado and throws her bombs at the Egg Bois, blowing them into pieces. Meanwhile Angel and Crystal are able to get up after the explosion.

Crystal rubs her head, "Ow. I think I landed on my head."

"Well, that was fuckin rude," Angel says, rubbing his head.

Fat Nuggets and Sapphire oink in reply.

"It seems that they're fine," Crystal says.

Angel stands up, "That's good, but now we ended up getting ourselves caught in this Turf War. Whether we want to or not."

"Oh boy. Charlie and Vaggie are not going to like this," Crystal says.

Angel brings out a Thompson Gun and says, "Well, we don't have much of a choice. We'll end up having a double death if we don't fight this fucking slithering freak."

"You're right. We'll be history if we don't stop him," Crystal says.

"Glad to see you're willing to be aboard on this," Angel says.

Then passes Crystal a rifle, "Here you go. You can use this as you stay hidden and keep an eye on our little buddies."

"Right," Crystal answers with a nod.

"Okay. You stay here and I'll help Cherri take care of Sir Edgelord," Angel says.

Angel then heads out to help Cherri while Crystal has the rifle ready to blast any of the Egg Bois that might come in her direction.

Crystal sighs, "So much for a normal shopping spree."

Back at the battlefield, Cherri Bomb continues to throw her bomb at the Egg Bois as she punches, kicks, and breaks the Egg Bois and scrambles them. Angel Dust quickly uses his gun to fire at the Egg Bois, breaking them and splatter eggs like yolks.

Cherri turns to see Angel, "Nice of you to join the party. Where's Crystal?"

"I told her to keep an eye on Nuggs and Sapphire. I gave her one of my rifles just in case those boiled eggs come close to them," Angel says.

"Good idea. Plus, she can be our little secret weapon," Cherri says.

Angel snickers and says, "True that."

Suddenly, chains coil around Angel and are soon dragged by Pentious and thrown to the wall.

Angel groans, "Serious again."

Angel looks up to see the snake demon giving him an evil grin showing his fangs and sharp teeth.

"Well now, it seems I got you exactly where I want you, you little bug," Pentious says.

"Yeah yeah, says the guys who doesn't seem to get my Sex Jokes," Angel remarks.

"You won't find this a joke once I blow you to bits," Pentious says and holds out a drill with anger.

"Really kinky of you," Angel replies.

Crystal continues to hide behind the pillars and the debris that remain from the attack. Crystal takes a peak from her hiding spot to see Angel is in trouble with Pentious. At the same time, Cherri is busy being attacked by the Egg Bois.

Crystal then sets up the rifle and begins to aim for her target, "After time being Hell without using a rifle. I hope I can still use it."

Crystal sets positions herself and aims the shot at Pentious who has Angel captive. Then notices his drill aiming at Angel and sees her target. Crystal pulls the trigger and fires the rifle. Before Pentious can drill Angel in the chest, the bullet of the rifle hits the handle that is attached to his hand, making him drop it to the ground.

Pentious becomes spooked and demands, "What the..? Who did that?!"

Crystal quickly uses the web from her left hand too attached to the ceiling of the building as she uses her lower arms to grab the pigs and her right hand holding the gun. She uses the webbed hand to pull herself and the pets up and she lands on the support beam. Crystal acts fast and uses the rifle to aim at the chain. She fires the rifle and the bullet breaks one of the chains and sets Angel free. Angel looks up to see Crystal up on the support beam making him give her a smirk.

Angel says, "I think you should be worried about me now."

"What are you?" Pentious asks, looking at the spider demon.

He then notices the chain has fallen off of him and Angel punches him directly in the face.

"Because we have a special someone who helped us turn this whole fight around," Angel says.

Angel then hurries off to help Cherri fight the Egg Bois. Pentious growls in anger as he rubs his face with his hand on the bruise he received from Angel Dust's fist. Still on the railing of the support beam, Crystal holds on to the little piggies with her lower arms while holding the rifle with her left hand and holds the support pillar with her right hand.

Crystal sighs, "I have to be careful and make sure this guy doesn't see me."

The two little pigs oink in reply with curiosity. Of course, they make sure to be close to Crystal's stomach. Down below, Angel Dust and Cherri bomb are fighting against the Egg Bois.

"So Angie, you okay there?" Cherri asks.

"I'm fine. Crystal is able to help me get out of that jam," Angel says, and fires the gun at the Egg Bois.

"Really?" Cherri asks.

"Yeah. She was able to shoot the drill and the chain off from a distance. And she's on top of the railing above the ceiling," Angel says.

Cherri grins, "I'm starting to really like this kid." Then throw the bomb at them.

The bomb explodes as they hear yelping from the Egg Bois.

Up on the railing, Crystal holds the rifle and sees one of the Egg Bois jumping behind them, holding a sledge hammer for a sneak attack. Crystal fires the rifle and the Egg Bois is blasted and burst to pieces. Cherri Bomb and Angel Dust turn to see the Egg Boi on the ground, broken to pieces and with the sledgehammer on the ground.

"Hmm, nice shot," Cherri comments.

"You can say that again," Angel says.

Angel and Cherri continue to fight against the Egg Bois and try to throw sneak attacks, but never have the opportunity when Crystal keeps shooting them and their weapons with her shot from the rifle and keeping the pigs safe.

Crystal continues to fight at the Egg Bois and she mutters, "Glad to know I haven't lost my touch. Learning to shot from far distance is one of the skills needed for assassination."

Crystal continues to focus her fire on the Egg Bois, and unknown to her, Pentious is climbing on the pillar to see Crystal firing at her minions from this distance. Sir Pwntious hisses with a bitter expression and plans on getting revenge on her for his humiliation. With the opportunity, Pentious then jumps and dives to crystal with maniacal laughter and an evil smile. Crystal quickly turns around to see the snake demon attempt to attack her.

Back on the ground, Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb have finished with the fight and the Egg Bois are in pieces with their yolk out of their bodies and weapons on the ground.

Cherri sighs, "Phew. Talk about a work out."

"Yeah. It was fun to mess with Sir Edgelord and his scramble eggs," Angel says.

"You can say that again, but we better find Crystal and get the fuck out of here before the owner of the mall to see the mess we made from the fight," Angel says.

Coming down from the ceiling, Crystal uses her web to lower herself down on the ground floor.

"Hey guys," Crystal says.

"Hey Crystal, glad to see you're in one piece. And to see our sweetie pies are okay," Angel says.

"Yeah. I made sure to keep them safe and to help you guys deal with these Egg Bois," Crystal says.

"Glad to see that you're on our side. You are a real sniper!" Cherri says, and slams her hand on Crystal's back.

"Yeah. You totally saved my ass. You were able to shoot the chain and the drill from miles away," Angel says.

Crystal blushes, "It… it was necessary when I was alive. We have to learn how to perform long range shootings for associations and well my dad takes me and my brother to shooting galleries sometimes so we got a lot of practice from it."

"You sure are something else," Angel says.

"Thanks. But still, we should get out of here before someone sees the mess we got ourselves into," Crystal says.

"Hey!" Someone shouts.

Crystal, Angel, and Cherri look up to see Pentious is tied to the high pillar with threads.

"You're not just going to leave me here?! You better releassse me before I break out and squeeze you tight with my coils!" Pentious screams and struggles from his restraints.

"You're the one who decided to try to take over this mall and try to blast us to pieces! Personally, you should be more worried if Vox finds out you're trying to take over his turf!" Angel shouts.

Confused, Crystal asks, "Vox?"

"Yeah. He's the one who owns his mall and this part of Hell. He's part of a group known as The Three V's. He's one of the most powerful demons in Hell and owner of Vox Multimedia. And likes to know the latest trends and technology," Cherri says.

"Multimedia? You mean like those strange sites that look like Youtube but is called Voxtube. Or like Instagram to Voxigram. Of the IPod phone I bought but called VPod, and maybe VPad," Crystal asks.

"That's about it, and there's more to come. That guy has a bit of an ego, and well, he's actually in the same group with my boss," angel says.

Crystal becomes stunned, "You mean your boss, Valentino?! The one that ocean animal gang wanted to sell me to!"

"That's the one," Angel says.

"And adding Velvet, another Overlord to the mix, those three are pretty dangerous," Cherri adds.

"Yeah… let's just get out of here before they see us," Crystal says.

"Agree," Angel and Cherri reply.

With that, the group hurry out of the mall and back to the hotel before the owner of the Hotel or anyone else can notice them being there. After reaching the hotel, Crystal and Cherri hang out in Angel Dust's room as they see the two little pigs play together with a toy ball.

Cherri giggles and says, "Those two sure are having fun together."

"Yeah. I have to admit, those two are becoming good friends. I guess it's because Fat Nuggets doesn't have many pig friends living in the hotel," Angel says.

"I guess so. Well, I guess with Sapphire around, Fat Nuggets can have someone else to play with," Crystal says.

"Yeah," Angel says.

Cherri says, "Makes me wonder if those two will end up with piglets someday?"

"I don't know about that," Crystal says.

"Not sure. But for now, I think we're fine with two little piggies in this hotel. We also got Sapphire some stuff, we got away from Edgelord and his annoying Eggs, and best of all, no one in the hotel knows what happened," Angel says.

Suddenly, they hear Vaggie's rage, "ANGEL! YOU WERE IN ANOTHER TURF WAR AGAIN, WEREN'T YOU?!"

The three look at the door to hear Vaggie screaming with rage.

"Or maybe not," Crystal calmly says.

Then sighs, "This should be interesting to explain. Which is going to be quite a story."
