Time for some hell to come and face off against something... Old and Wicked. Enjoy reading this new chapter folks!

Helluva Loud Adventures.
"Welcome to New Orleans part 1."

(December 11. New Orleans, Louisiana.)

A portal opens, and coming through are the ones from Royal Woods. Lincoln, Loona, Luna, Lucy, Delilah and Velvet, and the group see that they have arrived at an alleyway, and with their stuff ready and packed up. They look around and see the vandalism of different spray paints on the walls.

"This doesn't look like Vandalism dudes" said Luna. They go over and see the many bright colors, and this is not graffiti, this is something else. This wall of the building seems to have allowed this party-looking spray painting happen. "Dudes, this city is all about colors and parties."

This makes Velvet grin. "Oh, I fucking love parties!"

"Well, well. Look who showed up." They see the woman waiting for them. "Hey, Silva Hound. This is the first time we've met face-to-face and I am impressed and surprised on the real truth, you truly are all from hell, and also Royal Woods, Michigan."

Lilian P. Mulligan.
A woman in her 30's, brown hair and she almost looks like Katherine Mulligan, but her hair is long and a braided ponytail and she is wearing a white and pink shirt underneath a black jacket and blue jeans, and white and gold sparkled tennis shoes. She's also sporting some bracelets and some necklaces used when there is a big time party or event going on in the city, oh and she has some piercings on her ears.

She works as a journalist for the local magazine there, and she also has another job being a journalist for the police, and no one knows that part-time job she has, and she tends to try and sort out some closed investigations and even denied the title of being a detective for the police, she'd rather stay hidden and unknown about her investigations and what she does, she has been doing this for 15 years.

Lincoln smiles and goes over, and he shakes hands with Lilian. "Good to see ya, and also thanks for the intro. Gotta love the style you got, really into the city style of the southern territory huh?"

Lillian smirks. "Ya damn right about that. I love this city, and I was born here and will always be part of this place, and yet there are some mysteries and crimes going on... Though, the one thing I love about this place was the fact they had two WrestleMania events and I loved it when it showed up."

Loona then goes over. "Thanks for helping us find a place to stay, Ms. Mulligan. Also, are you related to...?"

"Kathie? Yeah, I am. We're cousins, and same with her sister who is the mother of little Jennifer Mulligan, whom I recall would be called Jenny and not Cookie" replied Lilian. "I know them well, and I respect what my cousin chose as a news reporter, that's like mine... Sorta, but we always dig into the information we need, am I right?"

Luna chuckles. "Yup, informative and looking for the truth, so where the heck are we gonna be staying dude?" She then grabs her bags.

Then Velvet asks. "This place, the place where we're gonna be staying... How food is the kitchen?"

Lillian smirks. "Follow me friends, to my car." They all go to her ride, which seems like a recycled drag racing car, turned to a convertible. Now they can see, that this lady is serious and also... Kinda strange.

(Stellwards Apartment.)

We now go to the apartment from which Lillian Mulligan resides and they go into the place and are confused. "Hey, Lillian. Do you live here or run this place?" asked Lincoln.

Lillian then opens the large apartment room. "I live here yes, am I the only tenant? Yes, does someone run this place? Yes, and did I tell him I would have guests here? Yes I did and don't worry, just as long as you guys pay the rent for staying here, which is around 1200 dollars."

Loona is confused and she sighs. "Yeah, saw that shit coming. Thank the fucking shit of Satan that we're loaded with cash. So, where are our rooms?"

Lillian opens the door and they see the rooms and who is staying with who. Lincoln is rooming with Luna, Delilah rooms with Lucy, Loona and Velvet are sharing the same room and deep down Loona doesn't like this idea of sharing with Velvet, but she has no choice. "Well, this seems better" said Velvet. "Now, where's the kitchen? Because I am fixing us lunch!"

Lillian smirks. "Two doors away from the room where Lincoln and Luna are staying..." Velvet zooms past her and they can hear the doll demon making food for them. "Dang, she must love cooking. Now, before you guys get accustomed to the whole place. There is something you all need to see."

They all follow the woman, though Velvet is busy and they go to the large room next door and they see the many information around the place. "This is my study, and this is what you requested." She shows them the white board, and it has photos with red strings leading to one ordeal.

They see the photo of Alastor, and Lady G Valentine and they see the many murders they have done, and it's all now tied to one person, and that person is named.

Gerome H. Killarn.
An African-American Man in his late 40's, who seems to be the very same height of Alastor back when he was alive, and is wearing a purple suit and red bowtie, and he is wearing some jewelry around his neck and wrists.

Lincoln then asks. "This man, what do you know about him?"

Lillian then speaks. "Well, he was once an associate of the murderer Alastor, and also a man who was a... Well, jealous guy for Georgia Valentine, who eventually became the wife of Alastor, he loved her and he wanted her, but he knew she wouldn't love him. But, what I do know from any information is this, the man is not dead."

Now this surprises them. "Wait, what?!"

Lillian nods. "He is alive, and he is somewhere in the City and doing whatever he wants. I found so many photos and all of them seem to show the man, from the times after the 1920's, and then all the way to the 1980's and here's another thing. He is a man of voodoo curses and stuff."

This surprises Lucy. "Of course! He is the sole reason why Alastor and Lady G never met in Pride Ring, he was jealous and if he couldn't have Lady G... Then he didn't want them to be together in the same place in hell."

Lincoln and the others are truly surprised to hear this and then Loona asks. "What else do you know about him?"

Lillian then hands Delilah the notes, she wants her to say it. "Says here that Gerome has been arrested so many times, and he kept changing his name to keep others from even getting suspicious about who he is and why he is still alive. He is also a madman and murderer."

"Confirms that the man tried to take over the Radio Station that Alastor owned, but the place was shut down since it belonged to a man who killed people. Gerome has been in hiding, and he has been a part of the history here since the times of the late 1920's."

Lucy then realizes. "Then that means he learned something to keep himself living and not die. That makes him dangerous."

Luna nods. "Very dangerous, any whereabouts on where the dude is and when can we hit him hard?"

Lillian then reads the notes she has. "Gerome is located at an old plantation that has remained untouched for years, and the city has been planning to bulldoze it, but they don't know why the hell they haven't even done so, almost like they keep on forgetting."

This makes Lucy suspicious. "He must be keeping the city from ruining his home, by removing their memories with some kind of spell. It's way too obvious, everyone."

Lincoln then sees the photo of the man. "We can't hit him now. We're not prepared and we don't know what the outcome might be." Lincoln then looks to the others. "We need to come up with some kind of plan that would help us take this sucker down, and we had better also get accustomed to where we are and be prepared for if this man does know that we're coming here."

They all nod hearing this and then Lillian smiles and she whispers to Loona. "He always like this?"

Loona chuckles. "You have no idea, Mulligan." They all take a look at the white board again and they look at all the red lines, and many of them lead to closed off cases of crimes they couldn't solve, because the causes of death seemed like someone was there, and yet there is no evidence.

Lucy thinks about this. 'Hmmm, now why the hell would this man be killing folks all over the city? Perhaps he has some issues with them, or he doesn't like them and deems them not right, and all of his victims, are common white American folks and not African American. Something is not right here.'

Then Velvet comes into the room and she looks at everyone, with a large tray of sandwiches and some brownies. "So, who wants some lunch? Also, you're out of butter."

(Timeskip, Night Time.)

Lincoln is on the roof of the place, and he has his phone in hand and he sends the text message to Lori, so she can be able to inform the Radio Demon and his beloved. "Lori, please pick it up."

"Looking out for your friends?" He sees Lillian is on the roof and he sits by the edge of the building. "Yeah, I can tell. Heck, I have done that before kid. I looked after some folks who needed my help the most, and it came at a near great cost and that's why I don't wanna have friends anymore."

"I am an investigator who is more comfortable with just being alone and not getting into relationships and bonds. It would also cost my own life and ruin everything I have been working hard on, but you on the other hand... That seems like a normal thing, you not worried about them getting hurt?"

Lincoln looks to his phone. "Yeah, I do. I don't want them getting caught into the fucked up mess that I get into, but this is no ordinary friend who I am helping. These folks are demons, powerful ones and surely Alastor can handle his own. I just want him to find the truth and put the past behind him, because I was able to make up the troubled emotions he was hiding, and he doesn't tend to show emotions."

"This is just... Something I wanna do, and I don't know what else will go down when we face someone who has been around for a long, long time. This is sorta a first, but also as dangerous as any other trouble we were caught in. Glad I am able to do this, and thanks for helping as well. Lillian."

Lillian nods. "Anytime, kid. I didn't think this case was good enough, but to know the truth about this guy... Dang, something else and I like a good mystery. But right now, we shouldn't be concerned about what is inbound, we need some rest. Because we're going there tomorrow, first light and after breakfast."

Lincoln chuckles. "A little too serious, there Mulligan." He then follows her back into the building.

Lillian smirks. "What can I say? My pops was once a cop, and my grandpa was a veteran of war, and both are still alive." They head back inside, and they do not notice the drone watching them, a drone that belongs to a certain group of demon hunters.

The drone then flies off, to contact the bosses who made it, and they are posted somewhere outside the city, the group known as: D.H.O.R.K.S.
