Linka walked with a pep in her step as she walked into the house and Lincoln closely followed, the Slayer just looked at them before making a thunderous step inside the house. Linka was about to enter the stairway but was suddenly pulled aside by her brothers and they all started to blast her with questions.
"Why did you do that?!" The boy with the crown said
"Are you crazy!?" The boy in suspenders stammered
"Did you see what they did to those- those things?!" a boy with basketball shorts exclaimed
"Not to mention the cops they slaughtered." A boy said in a monotone voice
Linka got hit with barrage after barrage of questions asking why she did that. She simply shushed them and explained, "Look I know they might not be the most… friendly-looking and acting people but they stopped those things from doing anything to us, and when the cops came they did even attempt to hurt them, but when they were threatening them, they were only acting in self-defense."
The boys stopped their excessive questioning and gave it a thought. They did do it for the act of protection and when they felt threatened, they acted. They gave a look at each other and looked back at her.
There was an era of silence until the one in purple spoke. "Ok Duddett, if you really trust him, we'll support you."
"Just dont do anything dumb." The one in the tanktop said
Linka smiled and pulled them in for a hug, she got a whisper from the same guy in the tank top though "And we are totally going to be spying on you sis, just to make sure nothing happens."
Normally Linka would huff at the comment, but she smiled even harder. They broke the hug and she walked back into the living room where Lincoln was leaning against the wall with the Slayer looking at him and even though Linka couldn't see through his visor, knew it was a stern look. She walked up the stairs and Lincoln followed and the Slayer completely opposite direction.
"Where are you going?" Lincoln questioned
All he was met with was with the door closing and seeing the Slayer leave the yard through the window. Lincoln and Linka look at each other before she asked: "Does your, friend, always do that?"
"Well, he doesn't like wasting time and isn't a hangout guy from what I've seen," Lincoln replied
"Well, what is he going to do?" Linka questioned
"I don't know… kill demons I guess," Lincoln said before walking up the stairs
Linka followed as she said "I don't know… I still don't believe the 'hell is real' thing."
Royalwoods elementary (Summer school)
The Slayer stopped at the entrance of the school and he cracked his knuckles as he observed children walk inside their extended schoolhouse time. Some of the children spotted them and their walk quickly turned into a fast jog. He walked through the crowd of approaching children and they quickly got out of his way and he heard some slight murmurs. Suddenly he heard the dial of the phone and looked back to see the same redhead who was flirting with him the night before on the phone.
"HELLO, YES OFFICER, THE MAN THAT WAS AT THE POOL PARTY LAST NIGHT IS AT ROYAL WOODS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. GAHHH" The redhead said right before the phone was grabbed by the Slayer and smooshed in his hand.
She looked down at the crushed phone and then at his visor, there was no expression, but his fists clenched. Her eyes widened and held up her hands in front of her and closed her eyes.
"Please don't kill me." She sputtered out
She waited for 5 seconds and nothing happened, she creaked one eye open and found him nowhere to be seen, but the doors to the school were wide open. Her eyes went wide until she heard the sound of sirens in the distance and a helicopter in the skies.
The Slayer looked at the empty hallways and they were deserted, he walked them even more, backpacks were on the floor. He peeped in a classroom, heard nothing but faint breathing and crying, he saw several students huddled in the back of the classroom with the teacher shushed them, he was a tall Hispanic man with black hair and a name tag saying 'Mr. D'Martino'. He walked down the hall and stopped at a small staircase down to the basement, he took steps down the stairs and opened the door with such force that it was shot off its hinges. He was about to take a step inside but then he heard the cock of a gun. He turned to find a lone cop with his pistol out.
The Slayer made his pistol appear but the cop said as calmly as possible "Look… I know you can kill me if you please, we just want to know why you're here. If you could please respond."
The Slayer said nothing… his pistol disappear and began to walk inside while the cop stood where he was. The Slayer stopped until he looked back at the cop and threw his head to signal come with me. The cop stood in silence until he realized what the Slayer wanted, he pulled his arm up and made the come signal to his squad of swat members. They all followed the Slayer with rifles in their hands. The Slayer looked back and saw the cop with his minuscule handgun. The Slayer took out his shotgun and handed it to the cop, the cop looked at it and hoisted the gun in his waist. He took the weapon in his hands and gave it a good pump and saw a shell fly out. He looked back up at the Slayer and in return, he nodded. They went further into the basement and they heard and howl in the dark end of the basement. The Slayer pulled out his double-barreled shotgun and loaded it. They made a left and there it stood, a lump of meat made gore nest. The whispers of the victims made it still humming. The stench was awful, 2 of the swat members threw up at the corners of the room. But when one went to the bottom right, he was silenced before letting out a grunt and him being pulled to the ceiling.
"WHAT THE FUCK!" The Policeman yelled as he flashed his light at the corner's roof.
And there was a tentacle dragging his squad member into a hole and it swallowed him and the passage closed. They all looked at the ground and there stood more tentacles and they all retreated back into their hole once the light flashed on them. Suddenly one of the squad members looked closer and approached one hole with his light over it. Suddenly a technical grabbed his head and dragged him in.
The Slayer took mighty steps to the hole and dragged out the man from his feet and the cop with the shotgun made a clean kaboom at the base of the tentacle where it was nothing but a meaty stump.
The Slayer approached another and when the tentacle tried to grab him he made another clean shot. The authorities looked at each other and saw how he did it. The officer took a walk to one of the holes and when the monster sprung out like a jack in the box the officer took the shot and killed it. They repeated the process multiple times and they managed to kill another after another. They sighed when the job was finished. They turned to the Slayer and the cops turned to the gore nest. They looked at each other and approached it. They could see disembodied faces that looked like they were screaming.
"So what do we do now?" The officer asked
The Slayer simply held his super shotgun in one hand while in the other he shoved his whole fist inside and blood spurted out everywhere, They looked at each other while it screeched in pain before it exploded into millions of chunks. Suddenly it was silent, then they heard a low growl, they tuned to see red flashes of light and there stood 5 imps, 2 hell knights, pain elemental, 1 mancubus, and one Baron of hell. The cops were startled by their arrival and they opened fire on the monsters, they roared and screeched as the charged, but suddenly the Slayer grabbed an imp's spine through its stomach and pulled his head down causing the imp's head to retreat into its body and come out its stomach. The Slayer looked back and saw the officer with the shotgun kill another imp with a blow to the head. The Slayer pulled him aside and took the shotgun.
"Dude!" The cop yelled
But when he looked back at the shotgun the Slayer had put on its rapid-fire mod. The Slayer showed the officer a button on the side and gave it back to him. The officer looked at the shotgun and turned to his left where a Hell Knight was charging. He pressed the button and held the trigger, it began to spew pellets every few seconds as the shotgun went to work. The Hell Knight was startled by the sudden offensive but it still held firm, the assault rifle shotgun tore through it and it was only a stump with legs.
When the monster stopped and dropped dead "I have got to get my self one of these babies." He said
He looked back and found the entire platoon of monsters were dead and the Slayer was finishing off the mancubus by pulling out its heart and shoving it in its mouth causing it to explode. The Slayer turned to the officer and what was remaining of the swat team.
"Who the hell are you?" The officer asked
The Slayer merely took his shotgun back and made it disappear then walked off, leaving the cops bloody, alone, and shaken.
The Slayer turned the corner and found the same girl who called the police with her friend and her phone out with what he could presume was taking a video. He just kept walking out of the basement of the school.
The cop pulled out his pistol again and radio and said: "Hello yes chief, we need backup at the Royawoods elementary school." He then looks at his clothes and continues "And towels."
-"What why?" The chief responded
"There is something happening that is much larger then you can imagine." He said
There was silence until the chief said: "Backup is on the way."
The louder residents (4:38)
"Ok, I'm ready," Linka said as she walked downstairs "so what games do you like?"
"Well, muscle fish is pretty cool," Lincoln said
They walked out the front door and began to walk to Gus's Games'n Grub. Lincoln dawned his orange polo with genes as usual, but the washing machine cleaned the bloodstains off of it. They chatted as they walked the way to the arcade and nothing seemed different than last time when they arrived before. But once she entered the building, she saw it was completely empty other than the cashier that was sweating like a pig. They looked at each other before looking at a booth, their stomachs dropped at the sight of a rememberable armored man that was covered in red 'mud'. The Slayer turned his head to them and said nothing before looking back at the empty arcade. The two kids carefully walked towards the counter and asked the clerk for game tokens, they handed him $30 cash but he just simply put on a forced smile and gave them two buckets full of tokens that have a value of over $100.
"I-I-It's o-on the h-house." He managed to squeak
They looked at each other until Linka screamed when the Slayer appeared behind them burning the vision of his visor into the Klerk's eyes.
When they turned around and handed a piece of paper that had his handwriting on it. 'You have until nine.'
The Slayer walked back to his seat and sat down. They both at each other and then the arcade, the empty arcade. Normally it would have been a child's dream to have an arcade to themselves but it felt off not having anyone else there. They took out their first token and decided to play Muscle Fish battle mode.
4 hours later
The last token was taken out and put into Ace Savey the Crime duo game. The mashed buttons as the approached the final boss and beaten the game 99.9%. They were about to do the finishing blow until Lincoln felt a tap on his shoulder. He ignored it and kept on playing but then an armored hand grabbed him and yanked him back.
"Heyyy, come on man, we were about to finish the final boss," Lincoln whined
The Slayer put his wrist up and tapped vigorously on his hand. Lincoln then realized what he wanted, he pulled up his watch… 9:00 PM. Lincoln sighed and walked over to Linka who was still playing.
"Lincoln, come on, we are almost done with him!" Linka said in excitement
Lincoln sighed again and replied, "I'm sorry Linka, I have to go."
Linka stopped at what he said "What? Why?" She said
"Look, I would like to stay if I could, the time I spent in this dimension was fun… but I have to go. I don't know what would happen in the next one… but if I die, make sure to tell my sisters I love them." Lincoln said
Linka walked up and said "You are going back to your family, and tell them yourself… I had fun with you here. So… I guess this is goodbye."
Linka began to have water come to her eyes as she began to cry.
Lincoln looked at her and said, "Don't think of this as goodbye… think of this as see you later."
Linka nodded and said, "See you later."
Lincoln pressed an assortment of buttons on the watch and a red right with the dark middle appeared. He stepped through and the Slayer followed.
