Another day, and another asshole to kill, or capture or just beat up to the point of so much pain. Thank you "Vasmasdas1" for the client and target. Lincoln will also have a nice conversation with a cute and yet psychotic demon/sinner. Enjoy reading folks.

Helluva Loud Adventures.

(Somewhere in Medford, Oregon.)

The city is still at midday moments and classes are done, at the nearby elementary school. Some kids walk out of the place and are headed to their parents to go home, a 4-year old boy had just finished his day at kindergarten and he smiles when he sees his mom with his 2 month old baby sister.

The woman's name? Ashlynn Wilson, the widowed wife of Aaron Wilson. She escorts her son to the car along with her daughter, but they have no idea that someone is watching them.

The one watching? Vincent Travis, the man who shot Aaron Wilson and is planning to kill the woman who knows who he is, turns out she saw the footage from the home invasion and death of her husband and she knows the man as the guy who actually works at the local convenient store.

Because the whole town knows, his store has been closed down and he's in hiding as cops are on a manhunt for him, and now he has to kill the woman who knows him and reported to the cops.

He comes out of the bushes and sees the other parents have left and the older kids are yet to come out. So he takes the opportunity and begins to walk towards the woman with a knife in hand, but then someone moves fast past him and stabs his legs and he screams in pain.

This gets Ashlynn and her son's attention and they see the man in pain and she sees his face. She's about to go back to the car, but then a dog-like creature goes over and stomps on the man's face. "You do realize she has kids with her, right?" asked Loona.

Then Blitzo, Lincoln, Moxxie and Millie come out of the bushes and go to the man. Luna also walks towards them with her knife with the man's blood. "He didn't even see me coming, dudes."

"Alright, now we can make sure Aaron Wilson gets his revenge" said Lincoln.

Ashlynn is shocked to hear that name. 'Aaron?'

Vincent is shocked. "No, no! He's dead!"

"Yeah, he is dead and is waiting for us to make sure you get a fucked up beat down, retard." Blitzo then begins to repeatedly hit the man with a baseball bat. Moxxie and Millie begin to use their demon claws to scratch him on his legs and Lincoln and Luna stomp on the man's arms.

Loona has a camera and records the whole thing. "I called the cops earlier and told them what we're doing, they said to let us take their time. They'll be here in ten minutes."

Vincent tries to defend himself, but he can't with so many of them ganging up on him and giving him one hell of an ass whooping. They need to make sure they don't kill him, hurt him? Sure, but no killing.

Lincoln stops and looks to Ashlynn and sees her kids in the car looking away. He walks towards her. "Are you Ashlynn Wilson?"

The woman nods, and so he hands her the note. "You're husband, Aaron is… He's someplace where he's trying to seek redemption for past sins, and he wanted you to have this and he said that….. No matter where he is, and whatever choices you make, he will always love you and you're kids."

Ashlynn looks to the note and she has some tears, it's from her deceased husband and looked like an important message about something he kept hidden for her and the kids. She then looks to the boy. "Thank you, all of you."

Lincoln nods. "My pleasure. Now, you and your kids should get going, we'll handle this bastard." Lincoln then goes back into the beat down. He jumps off the fence and he lands onto the man's chest, elbow drop first!

"Yeah! Let's wrestle this guy instead!" Blitzo then grabs Moxxie and tosses him onto the man's gut.

"What the hell?!" yelled Moxxie and he is in pain as well.

Ashlynn gets back into her car and she drives off, she was happy that her husband was someplace where he's trying to be redeemed for his past sins and that he'll always love the family he had. She just wishes she could see him, one last time. But on the other hand, the bastard who killed him is gonna get the justice he deserves.

(Pimp Porn Studios.)

After handling with the target and informing the client of the successful job they did, he's now back at this fucked up place, to see what one of the three V's wants with him.

Lincoln walks out of the elevator door and he nearly bumps into Lori. "Sorry, Lori."

"No, no. I didn't see you coming, this is on me." She then walks away from him, but this makes Lincoln worried, and filled with so much determination.

'Hang in there Lori, just hang in there. Soon, I will free you and I will help you through the redemption you seek.' Lincoln then walks towards the stairs and he makes it to the top and sees. "What the fuck is this?"

No Vox and No Valentino. "Hi there, Linky!" Yeah, it's her. Cute, but Psycho, delusional but at times adorable and fabulous. Velvet, one of the three V's Triumvirate.

Velvet – Her age is unknown and so is her cause of death and when she died, but all that is know is that she is demented, insane and psychotic, has a murderous impulse and at times, a friendly demeanor. But still, she is known to be bad shit crazy.

Her appearance: a slim demon with slightly grey-brown skin. She has velvet, burgundy, and white hair tied into pigtails with lace hair ties holding her hair up, she's also wearing white eyeliner with crimson eyeshadow. She has white irises and red sclera. She is also, a doll demon in appearances.

Her Attire: A black, velvet, and white ta-length dress with short puffed sleeves including various designs and velvet lace at the bottom. White and velvet striped evening gloves and black tights or stockings. Her shoes are velvet flats with white puff balls on the top.

Lincoln looks around. "Where the hell are Vox and Valentino?"

Velvet gets up. "Meh, having sex together someplace in here. I told them I'd do my own thing and chill, but in truth I called you to come here!" She then hugs Lincoln. "We have a big day ahead of us."

Lincoln has a shit ton of concern in his eyes and what is he saying in his thoughts? 'Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Oh fuck, why?!' He can tolerate Vox and Valentino, but if Velvet is alone, then this is not good.

"Velvet, as fun as it would be to hang out with you, I thought I was called to kill someone."

She then departs from the hug, but keeps her hands on his shoulder and smiles. "Come on! Take a break from the killing for the other two and just hang out with me, your new Bestie!"

Lincoln is unsure about this. "Not to burst your bubble there, Velvet. But, I got a best friend on earth, and one here in hell and that is not you."

Velvet then realizes. "Oh right, some weirdo from the hotel." she then thinks. "Well, I guess I'm you're secret bestie then! How's' that?"

Lincoln knows he can't get out of this and he recalls the one time when he was alone with Valentino one time and he told him about Velvet.

Valentino: The thing you should know about, the Baby Doll; is that she is crazy, like seriously crazy and likes to do whatever the fuck she wants and one of them is making new friends and you, kid are on her list so….. Should you ever be alone, do not run or try to resist. She's an overlord, she's above your pay grade, kid. Deal with it.

Lincoln sighs. "Alright, alright. Fine. What the hell do you want from me, Velvet?"

Velvet smiles with glee. "Okay, so we're not gonna be hanging out here in this place, and usually when Vox and Val are busy with their own shit, that shark starts walking around. So, let's go to my place!"

Lincoln wants to reject, but he can't fight back if he says no and surely this bitch is not to be trifled with. "Fine, fine…." Then he recalls what she said. "Hang on, shark?!"

Velvet grabs his hand and she leads him down the stairs. "Come on! We're gonna have so much fun!"

As they head to the elevator, Summer and Dia see Lincoln being led away by Velvet and they see the look in his eyes, and they look like they're saying. 'Help. Me!' They watch as Lincoln and Velvet are now in the elevator and leave the place.

This makes Summer and Dia concerned and so they go and tell this to Holly. The Sinner sighs. "Girls, girls calm down. She's not gonna kill or eat him, he'll be fine. This is Velvet we're talking about, and no way to hell would he wanna do something nasty to the kid."

Summer was worried. "But…. But she's crazy."

"And delusional" said Dia. "You do know who she is, right?"

Holly sighs. "I know who she is and all hell knows what Velvet can do, but trust that Lincoln will be fine, no way would Velvet do anything to make Val and Vox pissed off in hurting the kid."

Summer and Dia were still worried, but they had to trust that Lincoln won't get hurt.

(Some abandoned bakery in hell.)

Lincoln and Velvet arrive to the place. "Welcome to one of my hideouts!"

Lincoln sees the bakery and the sign that says. "Potions and Pastries." Here's the hot issue, the place looks like someone else's bakery, and I don't think the place was supposed to make potions either.

The sign looks like it was painted over another sign that says. "Papa Arc Pastries." Also, there's a dead demon on the side of the building and a demon's head impaled on the roof and one impaled head that looks like the asshole Lincoln killed last month.

Lincoln is confused and sees not a single demon down Torch Avenue in this east side of hell. "So, how come demons don't come here?"

Velvet then goes towards the door. "I don't know, maybe it's because I killed them all! Or maybe because they know I live here and none of them wanna fuck up with me when I wanna play." She then opens the door to her home. "Come on in, you are my guest of honor!"

Lincoln has so many fucking regrets, but he knows that there's no way out of this shit when it comes to this fucked up overlord. 'Why couldn't I be given the chance to see Rosie instead?' He walks into the bakery and is surprised at what he sees. "Holy shit."

The outside may be a fucked up mess, but the insides looks like a pink themed pastry store for an Alice in wonderland scenario, even if there is a cauldron….. Wait, what?! Yeah, there is a cauldron in the middle of the room and it's got fire underneath that is not lit.

There are tons of pastries that have been made and haven't gone bad yet, wait what? This place is rundown and no one comes here and yet the pastries look fucking fine?!

Lincoln is bewildered. "Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! This place… What the fuck? How?!"

Velvet then stands next to him smiling and then eating a brownie. "Yeah, I know right? Like, why the hell does this place look so bad on the outside, when the inside is actually awesome and well, me?! Well, this is my home, well one of my homes. Okay, so not the main home, I got tons of these places around the city."

Lincoln is wide eyed. "What?!"

Velvet nods. "Yup, the others look like restaurants and I like to take turns on where I wanna stay to rest up and think of what to do for tomorrow and this place is one of them, I call this, my home of wonders and goodies! What do you think?"

Lincoln chuckles and looks to the place. "This place is, amazing!" He grabs a cookie, but then he stops and puts it back. "This is like, something my friend Clyde would wanna see, he knows how to bake and cook and this would be something he'd faint from."

This makes Velvet smile. She really wants to see his home and the folks there and everything else!

Then she calms down from her menacing grin. "Okay, so now that you're here. I want you to help me with something." She puts on this black witches hat and she kicks an old chair and two tables of potions are now on either side of the cauldron and this impresses Lincoln.

The lights then go out and the pot is glowing, and some levers are revealed next to the Cauldron and Lincoln walks closer. "Wow! Wait, what are we doing?"

Velvet then grins. "Making some fun! Now, pass me the sugar." Lincoln hands her the sugar, and she puts it in the cauldron, which the fire has started and the green liquid inside is now bubbling.

"Now the chocolate chips!" Lincoln does so and she drops the whole bucket in and this makes the liquid brown.

"Velvet, what the fuck is this?"

"Shush, do not disturb the cook. See the apron?" Lincoln sees the apron that appeared out of nowhere and it says. "Disturb the cook, and you DIE!" technically she made that.

Velvet then looks to the cauldron. "Baking soda, please." Lincoln hands her the whole plate of it and she tosses it all in and it begins to bubble once more and she stirs the large spoon.

"Now, the flour and put in the water too!" Lincoln hands her the sack and she pours all the flour in, and Lincoln adds the bucket of water. He was not liking this at all.

"Finally, sprinkles!"

Lincoln is confused. "What?

"Sprinkles!" Lincoln then hands her the jar of sprinkles. Velvet grabs a handful, only to drop the whole jar into the cauldron and eat the handful of sprinkles. She then stirs it and smiles wickedly like some kind of witch, she then begins to chuckle and then laugh maniacally.

Lincoln slowly backs off at this. 'What have I gotten myself into?'

Velvet then stops laughing and stirring. "It is done!" She then backs off and she grabs the lever and a claw comes down and begins to go into the pot, she pulls the lever again and the claw pulls something out of the green oozing vat and then the ooze slides off revealing… Cookies? Wait, what?

Lincoln is confused. "Umm, what the fuck just happened?"

Velvet claps her hands and the lights turn back on and then goes over to the chocolate and sprinkle cookies, and she grabs one and bites it. "Mmmm! I am a genius cook at this." She grabs one. "Try some!"

"No, no… I'd rather…." But she shoves one into Lincoln's mouth, he eats it and realizes. "Oh wow. These are great." Then he grabs another and eats it, but then he asks. "What the heck was in this?"

Velvet looks to the kid. "Linc, you saw what we were doing. You know what's in them," She sees his stern face. "Oh! That's what you mean, okay. There's nothing poisoned in them, I swear. Cross my soulless heart, there is no poison or anything volatile."

Lincoln is cautious and doubts her, but he can tell these are not rigged, and that cauldron of ooze, it smells like melted sugar. So he eats one. "Wow, this is good. You are a good cook, well baker."

This makes Velvet smile, but deep down, she has other intentions.

(Later on the rooftop.)

As they have finished the whole day of baking and making some deadly potions for Velvet to use, Lincoln also learned how to make potions alongside her, and he can tell she had plans for him and he made sure that she did not succeed, he knows she's up to something.

Now, here they are on the rooftop and both of them watching the sunset as they eat a batch of brownies she made.

"Well, this has been one helluva day for me" said Lincoln as he eats another brownie. "And I thought you'd want me to kill someone, or have me turn into something you want forever, but I have to admit, this has been kinda fun."

Velvet smiles. "Thank you, and I am so happy you had a wonderful day with me, and I can't wait for the next time we hang out and spend some awesome time to make pastries and other potions! I have so much in store for us!" She then grabs her phone. "Selfie!"

Lincoln chuckles and joins in, she takes a pic and she saves the image and doesn't' post it.

They then go back to eating. Lincoln then looks to Velvet. "I don't get you sometimes." This makes the Overlord look towards him.

"I mean, you were called a psycho, maniac and bad shit crazy to the core, but I can see past that and…. Well, after today, I don't see a manically overlord with the intention span of a mad woman from an asylum, I see someone with talents and skills and a sense of humor that is something others that need to get used to."

Velvet is shocked he would say that.

"I just spent one day with you, and we ended up making pastries and potions and you're home, is amazing. I don't wanna see your room, because that one is private, but I can see just how creative, entertaining and quite fun you can be within that shadowy and crazy outside you have. They are right about one thing, you are cute and psycho and I can respect that."

"You do what you think is fun, and others are too afraid to have fun with you because you have been given the crazy role for a long, long time. They don't know the real you, the sinner who wants to enjoy her own sense of fun and joy, even though it seems odd, weird and defined as delusionally unstable and insane. But to me, I can handle that. I've been through worse."

Velvet stops smiling and looks to the boy with so much thought in her mind.

"You're not just a crazy overlord demon doll, you're a fun-loving and friendly demon, who wants to have fun in her own way with someone who can handle it and not just Vox and Val." Lincoln then takes his phone and he scooches closer to her. "Selfie?"

Velvet smiles. "Y-Yeah, sure….. Selfie!" She goes close and hugs him as he smiles and takes the pic. He then saves the pic and adds the words on it. "Secret Besties: Linc and Vel."

Velvet is shocked at the words he called the pic. "Vel?"

Lincoln looks towards her. "Yeah, Vel. Short for Velvet, which is what I can call you, since you call me, Linc."

Velvet smiles. "Yeah, thanks. That sounds awesome, normally Val calls me Baby Doll and same goes with Vox, but….. Thank you."

Lincoln smiles. "No problem Vel, I think I can tolerate you, as my secret best friend."

And that was the nail in the coffin for Velvet. She is shocked out of her mind, the kid she has been trying to get into to tell her all he knows, is not the kid she thought he was and is more of an understanding kind of person to see past someone's mistakes and that someone, was her.

But this is also Lincoln's way of practicing for when he confronts and talks to the other former loud sisters about what they have been through, he had his own plans when this was happening, and he can see so much of Luan within Velvet, sort of.

Lincoln then goes back to looking towards the city and its night time lights beginning to shine.

Velvet then looks to the potion in her right hand, the one she plans to spike the brownies with. She thinks about this, and decides not to use it and she lets the potion spill away into the nearby drain.

Velvet then smiles. 'I don't need to do this to him, he's a good kid and… And he's nice, I think I'm gonna like hanging out with him.' But then she has a sick grin with sharp teeth and her eyes are searing red. 'But if anyone fucks with him, the fuck up with me! His secret, Bestie!'

They both enjoy eating the brownies and each other's company. This is the start of a good friendship between Lincoln Silva Hound, and Velvet.

But unknown to them, the Radio Demon smiles and has red glowing eyes from the distance as he spots what they're doing. Alastor is having some mixed emotions about this. 'Interesting, now why is he gallivanting off with her? This should be, very interesting indeed.' Deep down, he worries for when the boy hangs out with, his mortal enemy.

To be continued…..

A/N: Well, the man has been beaten and handed to cops, and I made it happen folks! Lincoln hung out at wherever Velvet lives. I honestly don't know where she lives and so I just made up about her having more than one hiding spot around Pentagram and Imp City, but why make her a friend? Well, you never know what kind of former family trouble would come and bring harm to the boy and his family. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
