Helluva Loud Adventures.
"The Spanish trip to Hell!"
(October 23. Casagrandes Apartment, Great Lakes City.)
We go to the apartment of the Casagrandes, and the Mercado has been closed early, because they have plans tonight and those plans are to go somewhere and meet some special folks for dinner. Everyone from within are getting ready and rushing around, dressed decent and checking for any mishaps in their attire, the only one who doesn't like this is Ronnie Anne.
She is wearing a purple dress and she doesn't seem amused. "Mom, why do I have to wear this again?"
Maria goes over and she fixes the makeup of her daughter. "Ronnie Anne remember what we're doing tonight. We're off to meet with the familia of Bobby. We have to be there for him and we were all invited by Lu… Lu… Lucifer." The name makes them all cringe, well some of them.
Carl is there, and he is dressed in a fancy blue suit and he is confused. "So, why is Lucifer that of a problem? He might not be as scary as Abuela and her Chanclas." He then looks to the mirror and he smiles at himself. "Dang. I look so cool and awesome, as always." He then winks to his reflection.
Carlota then arrives and she is dressed elegantly, and then comes Tia Frida and Tio Carlos. They also check on their kids and see if their attire is alright, and Carlitos is coming with them as well for some weird reason. Hector is checking his suit, well Rosa is checking his suit since he is terrible at dressing himself for the day. Rosa is dressed as she normally does when she goes to someplace fancy.
Bobby comes out and he checks his suit. "Alright, this is looking good and I look good. I am so…. Nervous to do this guys!" He then feels like cowering and retreating to his room, but then he stops and realizes why he is doing this. "No, do not be a coward Roberto! This is for Lori!" He then goes back to his room, because he forgot his pants, he was in his boxers the whole time. What the heck?
Arturo then arrives. "I'm here, I'm here. Did I make it?! Did I miss anything?!" He too is dressed fancy, then Maria goes over and fixes his tie, and she smiles at the way he looks.
"Arturo, you didn't miss anything. We haven't even left yet." She then stands back and takes a look at her ex-husband. "You look nice in that…" She realizes what she had just said and she blushes.
Arturo is surprised she said that, and he too blushes. "Wow. Umm, thanks… You look lovely too."
The others, even Ronnie Anne smile seeing this and they can tell that deep down, Maria and Arturo Santiago still have some feelings for each other, though Hector grumbles and seems less than amused, he still doesn't like Arturo after the man divorced his wife.
Then we see Sergio and Lalo, and those two aren't going. "Rawrk, well we all hope you guys have fun and make it back alive." He then puts on his shades. "Now, if you will excuse me, I have a party to attend to. Well, we have a party to attend to."
Lalo barks and he too is wearing some cool shades. "Rawrk, see ya. Wouldn't wanna be ya!" The duo leave through the window and they land onto a dump truck and truth be told, this is their ride because the party is located where the garbage truck drives by.
Rosa notices this and she calls out. "When you two come back home, you two had better be clean!" She then goes back into the apartment. "Alright, are we all ready for this?" they all seem nervous and they don't know how to even respond to that and Rosa understands their reason.
Ronnie Anne does answer. "I don't know what you guys are worried about. Sid and I have been there, well we only went to Imp City at the I.M.P Building."
Carlos then speaks. "Well, you only saw one city. Ronnie Anne, we're about to go to the palace of the being who rules all of the underworld. This is not like what Lincoln showed you and Sid!"
Frida goes over and she calms down her husband. "Mi Amore, calm down. We're all nervous and we don't need you to fall apart when the dinner begins." She then looks to Ronnie Anne. "But he does have a point. This is not like the city you have seen."
CJ then asks. "So, when do we leave?"
A portal opens and this startles them, the portal opened in their apartment building and coming through, is Lori Magne. "Bobby Boo-Boo Bear!"
"Babe!" Bobby goes over and the duo embrace each other. "So glad you came and you look amazing, as always!" He looks to Lori, and she is wearing an elegant blue, dress with a v-cut shape showing her right leg, and this makes Bobby kinda drool and also Carl. Frida does take a photo of this moment.
Lori giggles. "Thank you, Boo-Boo Bear. I didn't pick this, my mom Vaggie picked this for me. This is a bit night for us, for all of you to meet my grandparents."
CJ then asks. "Lori, why can't they come here to earth? That doesn't sound too hard, right?"
Lori sighs. "Well, they would love to come. But my grandfather and grandmother, Lucifer and Lilith, they can't step foot on earth. They would be violating some of the biggest laws from God himself, and so the best option for them is to have the folks they meet come to them or video chat, and Lucifer has done the whole video chat before."
But then she recalls last year, on Halloween when Lucifer did show up at the home to where the Silva Hounds live now. 'Grandpa Lucifer did appear on earth, wait... Was that really him, or some kind of powerful illusion he made so others will think he is there? I should ask him next time.'
That all made sense, and they look to Carlos and he is about to say something logical, but then he thinks about this. "She has a good point. Now, we should get going now, r-right?"
Lori can tell they are nervous, but she knows that they can be brave. They are the Casagrandes after all. "Alright, everyone. Next stop, Hell!" She then realizes what she had just said. "That sounded kinda wrong." The others also agreed, and they all go through the portal, and soon it closes.
(Wrath Ring, Hell.)
The portal from hell is open and right now we see the Casagrandes and the Santiago's all come through and they gaze upon the large fortress palace, of the Magne Family. They look around and see the land of hell, and they seem nervous about being there.
They can see Pentagram City and Imp City far away, and they can see the large pentagram high above the lands, and they can spot a river of lava far from them and they can hear some horrific screams of sinners being punished. This makes Rosa feel like fainting, but she doesn't and she calms down.
CJ is a bit intimidated by this land, and yet he is curious on if there are any pirates who were sent there, Carl seems less than scared, but the castle looks menacing, and Carlota is cautious about everything, she fears of what a sinner or demon would do to her. Carlitos is just smiling and looks to the castle and he claps at the sight of it.
Hector looks around and feels like he's going to end up here if he doesn't do anything good in the world, and Carlos is confused and curious as he looks around and as for his wife Frida, she is taking some pictures of this land. "Wow. This…. This would be a good inspiration for a painting?"
They all look to her confused at what she had just said, and so she remains silent. Ronnie Anne has been to Imp City, but she has never seen the land from which the rest of hell is composed of, and she just looks to the palace. "That is one big castle, man Sid is missing this."
Lori then goes over to them and she speaks. "Alright guys, this is it. Meeting the Magne family I am part of. Is everyone here ready?"
They all nervous answer with. "Sure." "Totally." "Definitely." "We're so ready." "We're not scared at all." Though, Ronnie Anne is the only one who responds with a positive mood. "Sure am." they all look to her and she sees their stares. "What? This doesn't seem so scary." she then follows Lori and so they all do the same. The doors then open and they see the three figures on the other side and this scares them.
But the figures are actually, Charlie, Vaggie and Leni, and all three of them are also dressed in a fancy manner. They also wave to them cheerfully, though Vaggie sports her usual normal smile.
Charlotte Magne. A red dress that reaches and has some pink flame highlights at some areas and a large v-cut to the left side showing off her left leg and at her waist is a pink sash with devil smile symbols, and it looks as sexy and elegant as a dress you see at a fancy party. She is wearing heeled shoes. Her hair is no longer in a ponytail and she lets it flow down to her back.
Vagatha Mothra. White dress that reaches her knees and has an X symbol in the back and white floral patterns around the neck, stockings which she always wears and this time they match, dark grey heeled shoes, elbow length fingerless grey gloves, she still has her bow and her hair covering her other eye and she is wearing a silver demon logo necklace.
Leni Magne. A teal blouse with floral patterns and a teal knee-length skirt and teal high heeled shoes, elbow length teal gloves and her hair is tied into a bun, she also has a teal bow and she doesn't have her signature white round sunglasses.
The sight of them makes them sigh in relief and yet they are kinda attracted by the way they look and Charlie goes over and she greets them. "Welcome Santiagos and Casagrandes, to the palace of Magne!"
Vaggie then goes over and she greets them. "The lord and mistress of hell are waiting for us in the dining halls and dinner will be served soon. Also, do not touch anything in this castle. Everything here is Magne property and we cannot do any damage, or else someone is gonna lose a head, or worse."
They all did not like the sound of that and this makes Frida hold the hand of her son Carl, since he might do something dumb, and he doesn't like this.
Charlie then goes over to Vaggie. "Vaggie, calm down. We can trust them." She then looks to the others. "Everyone, please follow us." They all follow Charlie and Vaggie, and Lori and Bobby hold hands as they walk into the palace.
They all walk down the long red colored halls and see that it looks like something out of a large and fancy and yet menacing and spooky mansion or palace. Frida takes some pictures and she stops when she noticed the eyes of some of the portraits are looking at them.
They look to all the portraits and then Ronnie Anne notices one. "Whoa! You gotta be kidding me!" They all see the large portrait of the crew of I.M.P, from the day they fought against Valentino and Vox, and another one where Lincoln and Luna are in hellhound form and fighting the same overlords.
Leni goes over and tells them. "Yup, that's them. The day this all went down, marked the new Overlords of hell, while the old portraits have been removed. The castle keeps tracks of all the horrible overlords and less than appealing overlords in record, but if they're no longer in the world of hell, then their records and other history are sent someplace else, as the forgotten ones."
They continue walking and then Carlota asks. "So, the two overlords they fought, they're now amongst the forgotten ones?" She seems a bit startled at the menacing demon armour, but Ronnie Anne, Carl and CJ think it's cool. Then Frida takes a photo of this.
Lori then tells them. "Yes, yes they are and to be honest… I am so happy those two good for nothing scum bags are sent there!" She then calms down and she takes a deep breath. "Sorry about that, let's say I had a history with them, and it's not pretty."
Bobby knows and he holds her hand tightly, Charlie, Vaggie and Leni also didn't like to recall those two and how horrible they were, and they too are glad that Valentino and Vox are gone for good. The Casagrandes and Santiagos decide not to ask anymore.
They soon make it to the dining room and they see that it is huge! Hector is amazed. "Holy cow! Rosa can fit more than ten dinners here! Look at that table!"
Carlos goes over and sees the way it is carved. "The craftsmanship of this is fascinating and seems almost better than anything I have seen. Whoever made this must've been quite the wood worker."
"Why, yes he was…" They all look to the main doors onto the other side and they see who steps in. Lucifer and Lilith Magne and both are dressed in what they usually wear, but they both have some jewelry on them and Lilith looks as beautiful as ever.
This is the first time they are meeting them and Rosa feels like fainting, this is the being who rules over the land known as hell, and is the grandfather of Lori and Leni. The smile on his face seems, unsettling and makes him kinda intimidating.
They look to Lilith and she is taller than her husband, and she seems kinda… Beautiful, scary, sexy, intimidating, bodacious, a bit menacing and mostly, gorgeous. She smirks at them staring. "Stare longer and I might just make you my pet." She chuckles evilly.
This makes the males of the familia stop staring and feel scared, and then Lucifer chuckles. "Come now, my love. Lets' not scare our guests, they are here to get to know us and we are here to get to know them." He then claps his hand. "Let the dinner, commence."
They all see some imps come out from the kitchen doors and they all place down the plates and then the platters of food and they are so many, and they seem…. Wait, why are they normal looking? They seem, earth based fancy food. Like something Gordon Ramsey would make, Charlie and the others are also surprised and confused.
Lucifer then speaks. "Now, let us all take a seat." They all takes they're seats and look at all the food. Lucifer sits onto the chair he always sits, and to his right is his wife Lilith and next to her is Leni. Charlie and Vaggie sit to the left of Lucifer and next to them are Lori and Bobby, and next to the Santiago boy are Ronnie Anne, Maria and Arturo.
Where Leni is, Rosa and Hector sit next to her followed by the rest of the Casagrandes familia. Lilith smiles. "Well, enjoy the dinner folks." They all prepare to eat, but then Charlie speaks.
"Wait!" She then looks to her mother and father. "Mom, dad… What's all of this?"
Lucifer chuckles. "Why, my dear daughter, this is our dinner. Why are you questioning this in such?"
Lilith then realizes. "Oh, Charlie is wondering as to why we're serving this and not what we mostly have here within hell."
Vaggie sighs. "Yeah, that kinda makes sense. I mean, this is unbelievably delicious looking." She looks to the lamb chops and the beef Wellington.
Lucifer then explains. "Well, I chose to have this served and not the food that could… End their lives if they consume it…." This makes them shocked at what they hear. "So, I did some research and used the social media on earth, and with the help from that little imp Blitzo, and he showed the kitchen staff the food that this… Gordon Ramsey man would serve. Honestly, he does not look like a lord of hell to me."
"We're all going to enjoy this meal, and I do not mind the food humans make, hell, I once went to earth once and ate some human food… Then I killed everyone, and escaped before that big bearded man could send me back to hell, painfully. Oh, what fun those times were. Witches always summoning me, and allowing me to do as I please while cloaking me from the eyes of the heavens."
They all didn't know what to make of this and so Charlie speaks. "Well, I guess we can eat." They all begin to chow down and they all enjoy the meal, and there is even wine for the grownups and Bobby sees Lori has a glass of wine too.
Bobby is surprised and he is drinking a glass, of soda. "Umm, Lori?"
Lori notices this. "Oh, sorry Bobby. Well, I got used to this place and the wine here tastes nice, but no way am I getting drunk." She then enjoys the food and Bobby decides to not mind this.
Lucifer looks around and he smiles at the Spanish family enjoying the food, and then Lilith looks to Arturo and Maria. "So, are you two actually divorced?"
This makes Maria and Arturo stop eating and they don't know what else to say and so Maria speaks. "Yes, we are Mrs. Magne. But we would still care for our children."
Arturo nods. "It's true, and now I am moved into an apartment in Great Lakes City, and I can get to spend time with Ronnie Anne and Bobby on some weekends."
Lilith smirks. "Well, very interesting. A romantic bond torn apart and then casted out, how obvious and quaint for some humans above, but I didn't think it would transpire onto the folks from the Mexican lands, also you have no need to call me Mrs. Magne, call me Lilith."
Maria and Arturo have nothing else to say and they go back to eating, they're now having doubts about their divorce and it makes them rethink their options. 'Should we… Should we try to go back together?'
Hector doesn't mind this and continues to eat, and then Lucifer asks. "So, tell me Hector. How's business doing in this little bodega of yours?"
Hector swallows his food and he speaks. "The usual, we have the loyal customers we come to know, though I run the Mercado. The whole thing is bobby who keeps track of things, and he is good at his job too."
Lucifer chuckles. "So, I have heard. Such as going around and sharpshooting the price tag gun, or getting himself locked into the freezer, and dealing with some hag who complains about bruised mangoes, or even his… Sticker and Coloring Books?"
This makes Bobby choke and spit out his soda. "Wait, what?! How did you know that?"
Lucifer snickers. "Oh I have my ways, Roberto Alejandro MartÃnez-Millán Luis Santiago, Jr. There is so much I have heard about what you have been through and what you are capable of. You are a bit pathetic and almost like a… well, child. But you have purpose and good intelligence when it comes to managing a small family friendly business and… I guess I am, slightly impressed."
Bobby and everyone are surprised to hear this, Lucifer is impressed by Bobby… Sorta. "W-Wow. Thank you, sir Magne. I mean, Lord Magne, wait no…. Lord Lucifer? King of Hell?"
Lucifer chuckles. "Boy, do not go to groveling beneath my feet. Only my wretched citizens do that, you may call me Lord Magne, and that goes for everyone else. Understood?" They all nod, then Carl raises his hand and Lucifer speaks. "Yes, I am rich and I use my power over this domain to rule and spread fear across the masses." Carl then lowers his hand and he stays silent.
CJ is about to ask, but then Lilith speaks. "There are pirates here, and they are thriving in the seas of blood, sinners of the past and one of them is that scoundrel bastard, Blackbeard. He doesn't seem like much of a threat, just some crazed pirate lord." CJ is shocked and he remains silent, there are pirates in hell, and they're all sinners.
They all continue their dinner, and even small talks that don't seem problematic and more like… Simple questions on what goes on above, almost like Lucifer and Lilith wish to know more about this familia and what they can do.
Lori smiles seeing this. 'Well, this is a good start. Looks like my family and Bobby's are getting along, and doesn't seem like there is trouble either. At least Sergio is not here, he might mess things up.' She then holds Bobby's hand and he holds her hand, they can tell that this is the start of a whole new unified family ordeal. The Casagrandes, the Santiago's and the Magne's.
To be continued in the next chapter folks!
A/N: Well, at least it didn't turn to shitty crazy, looks like Roberto Santiago has shown quite the good impression, towards Lucifer and Lilith. Charlie and Vaggie are alright with the teen boy, and now Lori and Bobby can have a well-balanced and supportive relationship together. Leave a review and tell me what you all think about this chapter folks!
