Author's Note: First Week is over and now we are back to the present. This takes place two days after the chapter VACATION! The angels are still living with Brief. This is also the final story arch in Heaven is a Place on Earth and will bring the series to a close.
Briefers Rock slammed his fist down on his blaring alarm clock. Despite it being a Saturday, he still felt the need to get up at 9:50. He slumped out of bed and slipped on his green jumpsuit. Brief went downstairs to the kitchen, and to his surprise; the Anarchy sisters and the Anomie brothers were all seated at the table. Bra was behind the kitchen counter making waffles. "You're all up early." Brief commented.
"It's only 9:50." Socks said, getting up with his black coffee. As he walked by Stocking, she stopped him by putting a hand out. Socks stopped in his tracks and raised an eyebrow. Stocking took one of her donuts and dipped it two times in his coffee before eating it. Socks sighed and continued walking to wherever he was going.
Brief sat down in Socks' seat. "Hey Bra, can I have a waffle, please?" he called to his clone.
Bra gave a salute and, using a spatula, flung a waffle to Brief, which landed on his face. "Thanks…" Brief muttered as he took the waffle off his face.
Brief, Boxer, Panty, and Stocking continued to eat in silence until they heard Socks' voice from the other room. "…There's a knight in the yard," he said.
"Wha?" Panty asked, confused on what Socks had just said.
"There's a knight in the yard." Socks said again.
Everyone left the kitchen and went into the living room. Socks was looking out the window with his coffee still in his hand. Panty pushed him aside and looked out the window.
Sure enough, there was someone standing in the middle of the yard. The person had a suit of armor on and a helmet with two horns coming out of each side. The "knight" had his back turned towards the window, so the angels couldn't see his face. "…Weird." Panty said, "Someone you know, Geekboy?" she asked.
"No…why?" Brief asked her.
"Maybe it's one of your geek friends or something."
"No, I don't think he is. The con isn't until next week." Brief said, earning laughter from the other three angels.
When they looked back out the window, the "knight" had turned around and was facing them. His head was facing the ground and they still couldn't see his face. Panty started to the front door, "C'mon, let's find out who this tool is," she said.
Everyone followed Panty outside the house and into the yard. The "knight" still had his head to the ground. "Hey!" Socks called.
The "knight" didn't answer, he just swayed from side to side in response. "Are you drunk?" Panty asked him. The "knight" didn't answer, but it stopped swaying and stood still.
Panty didn't like to be ignored. She grabbed Socks' coffee out of his hand and walked up to the "knight". She threw the hot coffee in his face, it made a hiss as it hit his face. "Hey! I'm talking to you!" she yelled at the knight.
The "knight" didn't answer, but it slowly began to bring his head up. Soon Panty was face to face with him. She jumped back to the others after she saw his face. The "knight" had no face at all. It was only a skull with glowing green lights in each of his eyes. "WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?" Panty yelled.
The "knight" reached his hand out and drove it into his own chest. When he pulled it out, he was holding an axe made out of bone. "HOLY SHIT!" Boxer screamed and whipped out his Uzis and began firing at the "knight", expecting it to explode.
The skeletal knight only recoiled back from the rapid firing and showed no signs of falling. Once Boxer stopped firing, it began walking toward them. "EVERYONE! IN THE HOUSE!" Brief yelled. The angels and Bra all ran behind him into the house. Bra shut the door behind them.
"Wha-What was that?" Boxer panicked, "It was so scary."
"How come it didn't explode when you shot it?" Socks asked.
"I don't know…did you see its eyes? Is that normal for a ghost?" Boxer answered with another question.
"No...It's not." Stocking said.
"Hey guys, you might want to see this." Brief said from the living room. The angels and Bra left the entry hall and went into the living room where Brief had the TV on the news.
"In a developing story, Daten City is under attack by what appears to an undead medieval army." The news anchor said. The screen in back of him showed downtown Daten being raided by more of the knights like the one in the yard.
"Officials are not sure what caused this phenomenon and advise all citizens to stay indoors and avoid contact with any of the undead as they may or may not be contagious. All attempts by authorities to contain this unknown threat has been thwarted. The undead appear to be immune to if not all methods of fire power and appear to exhibit immortality. Daten City is completely defenseless. Panty and Stocking Anarchy and Boxer and Socks Anomie, if you're watching this, then GET YOUR ASSESS DOWNTOWN NOW AND DO YOUR FUCKING JOB!" the news anchor screamed. The TV then cut to static.
"What the fuck is going on? If no one minds me asking." Stocking said. Socks answered her.
"Hmm. Well, it looks like whomever stole the page of the Necronomicon with the replication spell on it looked on the other side of it and used the spell that summons the undead army of darkness to do their bidding, which is in this case is to totally destroy Daten City, but your guess is as good as mine, Stocking," he said. Everyone looked at him wide eyed.
"We still don't know who took it though." Socks said, ignoring all their stares.
"The Demon sisters." Panty said without hesitation. "It was totally those bitches."
"…Well, that's that mystery solved." Socks said.
"So…what are our options?" Brief asked Socks. Socks thought for a bit.
"Well, we could wait for the army of darkness to finish their mission," he said.
"Why would we let them destroy Daten City?" Boxer asked.
"Because, once their mission is complete, they turn on their masters before descending back to Hell." Socks explained.
"Wha-what's our other option?" Brief said, not wanting his home to be destroyed.
"We could raid City Hall, kill Scanty and Kneesocks, grab the Necronomicon page, and use it to send the army of darkness back." Socks said, "But that won't be easy, they probably have half the army in and around City Hall."
"This isn't going to be like Cthulhu is it? Are we able to kill the army?" Stocking asked.
"Yeah, just a blow to the head. But these are trained warriors and hard to kill…I think they might even be as good as us with weapons." Socks said.
"I vote that we march right into City Hall, sodomize the Demon sisters with their own weapons and take that page." Panty said eager to settle the score with Scanty.
"Don't really have much of a choice." Socks said.
The four angels began to head out the door when Brief stopped them. "I'm going too," he said, "I don't want to stay here, what if more of those things come here? Without you guys I'm completely defenseless."
"Fine." All the angels said, honestly not caring what he did.
"We're bringing Bra then," Panty said before calling the clone's name. Bra took off her apron and exited the kitchen and met up with the group in the entry hall.
"Alright, let's…hey, where's Garterbelt?" Socks asked.
"Basement." Brief said, "He's still asleep." Boxer shrugged.
"Eh, if we don't come back then he'll get the idea," he said. Panty turned the front door knob and opened the door. The angels and two geeks were instantly greeted by Daten City under siege. Cars were overturned, buildings were on fire, and people were screaming and running from the undead knights.
"Well, fuck…" Panty said. At this point, everyone's stomach dropped. Stocking remembered something.
"Hey Socks?" she asked.
"Yeah?" he answered back.
"If the Demon sisters used the army of darkness spell, then do you think they used the replication spell?"
Socks looked back at Brief and then at Bra, who waved at him with a smile on her face. He turned back to Stocking. "I sure as fuck hope not," he said.
….
On the top floor of City Hall, Scanty and Kneesocks were standing in front of a pentagram they drew on the ground. In the shadows in front of them, there were two others in the room with them. "Place your hands on the pentagram." Scanty said.
The two others put their red hands on said shape; they knelt down on one knee to do so. "Do you promise to uphold the rules of Hell and the demon code?" Kneesocks asked them.
"I do." A voice sounded.
"I do." Another one after it.
"Do you promise to carry out our lord Satan's will and bend to him and only him?" Scanty asked.
"I do."
"I do."
"Lastly, do you promise to eliminate anything or anyone who dares to stand in your way?" Kneesocks asked.
"I do."
"I do."
"Then rise, Jockstrap and Crewsocks, for you are now high class demon lieutenants." Scanty said proudly.
