Now the others can bear witness to what Tannins and Athena have made, and the plans to perhaps encounter the guardian again will be in motion, and the hellhound might not be ready to inform them about what she did and who she met, and what she claimed from that person. Things are about to turn bad real fast, or perhaps not? Enjoy reading this new chapter folks!

Helluva Loud Adventures.
"The making of the Portal Gateway."

(August 20. The Sinner Sister's Hideout, somewhere outside of Royal Woods.)

The group have all arrived, the team of I.M.P, and with Velvet and Vark, and they all look to what Tannins and Athena have made, and Lincoln could not believe what they have built, and Tannins walks by them. "I didn't expect all of you to be aware of this, but the surprise seems to be over, and so behold our latest creation which is yet to even be called finished."

All of them look at the portal gateway, and then Blitzo asks. "So, this thing is not done yet?"

Tannins nods. "Yes, not finished and it would take another week to complete what we have planned, and my dear sister had her own plan on surprising all of you."

Athena then stops welding. "Yeah, I had some big surprises which involves cannons, confetti and a giant punching glove that would knock some of you away!" She then goes back to welding and the others are glad that she didn't do that bullshit.

Lincoln then walks around and looks to this gateway. "So, when this thing is done... We can find that asshole with the cloak and I can finish him off?"

Tannins then walks to her research area. "Possibly, but to find such a powerful being would be something not a walk in the park, we would need a lot of energy and something that would allow tracking be an easy part of the goal, or possibly a challenge. Now we have something that would help, and I extracted it after our first encounter with this man known as the guardian."

Tannins then shows them the hair strand. "Behold, the genetic DNA from the man known as the Guardian. With this, we can find out where he resides and then ambush him, and I can reclaim the animatronic which I never had the chance to dissect. But the true challenge is the world from which this guardian has come from. We might not be able to truly pinpoint the exact coordinates and I have little to know information on his true power."

"Because apparently, when he was fighting us during our first encounter and again when you all faced him at the Park, he was holding back. The guardian didn't unleash his full powers, and for possibly obvious reasons is because he is beyond our power and dangerous, wielding might and magic and whatever it is that I cannot understand. He would make a fine specimen if we do manage to take him down, his remains would be my little personal study."

Lincoln didn't like the sound of this, it meant that they cannot truly find out where the guardian is and it would be a long time before they can find it. "Well, keep trying and then if there are some results, then tell us. I have a score to settle with that asshole."

Luna then recalls. "Do we even ask the lord of hell much about the cloaked guardian dude?"

Lucy then recalls. "From what we have learned, that the guardian is another worldly being with powers beyond anything, and that6 what we faced was no ordinary guardian with magic."

EveLynn then asks. "So what? Is he the guardian of sandwiches or something?" this makes velvet snicker.

Lucy then continues. "No, I asked from Harriet back at the Hazbin Hotel months ago and she told me that the one we faced is known as the guardian of the realms. A powerful spell caster of sorcerer wielding powers that are way beyond us and has the ability to travel through different realms, despite the fact that some might not be truly available to his control."

"He has artifacts, powerful training, learns from other worlds and has possibly aided in fighting with those other worldly folks and even those from parallel worlds. Hell, there might even be other worlds that are parallel from ours and I recall that he did mention that Loona Silva Hound is someone he knows, and that would mean he has seen a parallel from the team of the Immediate Murder Professionals, but we can't be too sure of that theory or if it is truth."

"So, chances that when we do face him, then he might have some powerful allies, and those allies might be an obstacle and good friends with the target we seek. We might not even get anywhere close to taking this man down, he could have an army, he might be in par with gods and he might be able to fend us off or warp us to another world where we will perish horribly."

Tannins thinks about this, and she needs to come up with some way to try and counter what they might be facing, and yet she feels that she might not be capable to figure out a way to stop whatever will defend this guardian.

They are surprised hearing this and it made Loona sick to her stomach, and she recalls that she did meet with the man without harming him, and he didn't seem dangerous, but hearing what Lucy had just said is making her scared and she sees her son and he looks serious. "Lincoln? Son?"

Lincoln growls. "Whatever the obstacles, we can get through it. Lunes and I are strong, and our mom too. Hell, we have gone through shit that would kill any god or demigod or whatever the fuck there might be above those ranks. We have survived getting killed a lot and fought our way to make it to the point where things go back to normal."

"If we fight something tough and strong, then I don't give a fucking damn. We can fight them, bring hell and show them no mercy. What matters, is that we take down this mother fucking son of a whore retarded dick headed bitch! After what he did, it is so fucking to hell personal and I know the rest of you want this too."

They all think about this, and he is not wrong. The guardian kicked their asses and beat them up good, and they wanna take the chance and watch this guy slowly get massacred by their hands, and then Blitzo speaks. "If he's in, then fucking to hell so am i!"

Moxxie speaks next. "We have been through a lot and fought past so many... I think we might have a fighting chance. I think we can pull this off, and I too wish to have a rematch and get the chance to use the new submachine gun on that man."

Millie smirks. "Oh, fuck yeah. We can take down that cloaked freak, and his allies. Whoever the fuck they are, right?"

Luna then speaks. "Well, I think this is a shitty idea. But I wanna be there, and help my little bro as best I can. What about you dudes?"

EveLynn nods. "I wanna help out too. Linc is not having that fight alone, right Luce?"

Lucy nods. "A demonic wyvern on my side, and also with some skills with learning some potions from Harriet. I always visit her for some potion lessons, and a little bit of lessons from Velvet too. So, to the hell I am so in."

Velvet snickers and laughs. "Oh, you assholes know that I am in. No one messes with my buddies!"

Lincoln then looks towards his mother, his hellhound mother. "Mom, what about you?"

Loona was unsure, but then she smiles. "Well, if it means we get another round to fucking stab this guy, then I'll be in on it as well. But we need a plan, like a lot of plans because we know nothing of what could happen. We need to be prepared, because this is no returning family members with demented thoughts, this is no group from hell who wants us dead, and certainly not some rich fuckers or demon hunters. This is a powerful magical man with powers we have yet to see at full."

They all agree to that one, then Lincoln looks towards Tannins. "When the time comes, and when it is all done, inform us Tannins." Tannins nods, and she returns to her research, and then the group leave the place to ready what they need to plan, despite the fact that they should be enjoying some summer time fun.

Loona on the other hand didn't like this, and she recalls that she has something with her that would help in tracking down where the guardian is, but deep down she knows that it is not the best time to tell them, but this amulet she has might just help Tannins with what she seeks.

Loona doesn't know that Lucy can sense her emotions and her concerns, and the little Goth girl knows that Loona Silva Hound is hiding something. 'Hmmm, I need to talk to her in private next time, because something doesn't seem quite right.'

"To be continued in the next chapter folks! "

A/N: They have seen what Tannins has made, and it could be a long while before it is done, and it looks like Lucy suspects something about what the hellhound hides, and they will talk about this in the next chapter. I hope you all enjoyed reading this new chapter folks!
