Helluva Loud Adventures.
"Still lingering troubles."

(May 7. Somewhere in Royal Woods, Michigan.)

We see Lincoln and Luna, and the duo are walking down the street in the town and both have what they wanted after shopping there, and both are talking about stuff. "So, with mom now running the bar, she would need someone to act as second to act on watching over the place" replied Lincoln.

Luna nods. "True, true. But then again, the bar opens at night on weekdays, and opens in the afternoon to night on Saturday, and is closed all day on Sunday. Sounds pretty damn decent for mom to make some new rules and make it truly family friendly."

"Still, the two things we need to be watchful for is Husk and Angel Dust. I mean, if Husk finds out about the bar, then he'll wanna check it out and he could turn the place into a non-family friendly place. We all know how he is, and his ability to literally hate everything and everyone."

Lincoln nods and he continues. "And then we have Angel Dust. I mean, yes he is my friend but I don't want him to start doing some crazy former porn star to burlesque stuff in the place, or he will get a beating from mom and also from me. Angel Dust means well, but we don't want him to do some very inappropriate things there."

Lincoln then has an idea. "Perhaps I can speak to him, and make sure the rules are laid down so he doesn't break them, and the same goes with summer and Dia, even though they can behave when it is necessary."

Luna nods. "And we should ask if Alastor can keep Husk away from the bar, he is the guy who brought him to the Hazbin Hotel in the first place." she then checks the time. "Should we go for some lunch? Because I am hungry."

Lincoln nods. "Sure thing sis, because I could use something to eat as well." As the siblings look for a place to eat, Lincoln then speaks. "Sis, we are prepared for when Cash Buckzo shows up, right?"

Luna nods, and she recalls. "Sometimes we might have to end up getting the payment from the client, but it might not go so well should Cash Buckzo show up, he might be Blitz' dad and all, but he sure wasn't his father. I mean, chances he'll try to ring us into his money grubbing schemes, or try something else, and I for one do not like that guy."

Lincoln nods. "Same here, I mean it is obvious that he wants to take control of the management that Blitz does. I mean, the Immediate Murder Professionals, the Diner here on earth, and Molly's, well Royal Woods' Molly's. He'll wanna get into this and make it all his own. We can't let him find us when we're in hell, and if he does try something... Do we kill him?"

Luna thinks about this. "No clue, little brother. Blitz never told us anything on killing his dad, and it would be nice to do that. Perhaps we can talk about that to the others soon."

Lincoln nods and they continue to look for a place to eat, but something else is in Lincoln's thoughts. 'Though, Cash Buckzo is a minor issue, since we still got someone else to deal with and he has resurfaced and is trying to come after me, and chances he might come after Luna, mom and the others. Striker, we gotta stop him and take him down, and I recall Lucifer wants him dead or alive.'

'But, he wasn't strong enough, or fast enough to take me down. I mean, sure he did so back then, and even overpowered mom and Luna. But, we have trained and changed, and become stronger, faster and more aware, and perhaps if he does try something... Then we'll give him the hurt and...'

Lincoln and Luna sense something, and they leap out of the way as an anchor hits the sidewalk. "What the hell?!"

Everyone then sees, appearing from the clouds is a pirate ship and it is steam powered, and has a snake head, and both Lincoln and Luna know what this is. "Oh, you have gotta be kidding me."

They then see some allied aircraft trying to attack, and Lady Ace is in this as well, trying to get close enough to take down Sir Pentious, since he is exposed on the deck and manning the wheel. Lincoln cracks his knuckles. "So, lunch later?"

Luna smirks, and her eyes glow red. "Later dude."

Both siblings bear their claws, and hellhound tail, and they quickly climb the anchor and head for the ship.

Meanwhile, Lady Ace flies around and she tries to land some hits on Sir Pentious, all while avoiding the cannon fire, and the Egg Bois jumping off the masts and trying to attack her with swords. Lady Ace does her best, and she throws an Egg Bois overboard.

Sir Pentious laughs. "You can't stop me now! Royal Woods is mine this time, and this time you won't be able to stop me!"

Lady Ace smirks, and she zooms in and she grabs one of the cannons and throws it to the others, and the rest of the Egg Bois are getting occupied by the Airforce attack. "Wanna bet you sniveling piece of snaky filth?"

Sir Pentious is annoyed by this and he yells. "Seize her, take her down and make her walk the plank!" Also, Sir Pentious has a pirate hat that is alive, and an eye patch and a fake hook.

All the Egg Bois attack, but Lady Ace manages to blast them. "Walk the plank? Are you seriously trying to stick with this dumb pirate stick? What are you gaining from this anyway?" But Lady Ace doesn't know that the Egg Bois are all just the diversion, and her back is now turned.

Sir Pentious then grabs one of the ropes, and he is sent upwards, and then he comes down and lands on top of Lady Ace, and he pins her to the floor. "Ha! Made you look, and now you are doomed!" Sir Pentious uses his tentacles to go around her body. "And such a fine treasure you are, I mean I know I want you destroyed for trying to stop me, but perhaps..."

Then Luna kicks him off of Lady Ace. "This is a raid, and we're here to loot what ya got!"

Lincoln then lands on the deck and he uses dual flintlock pistols and he shoots two Egg Bois. "Yo-Ho, and a fucking Ho!"

Lincoln then grabs one of the cannon balls and he throws it back to the cannon, and it goes back into the cannon which is about to fire, and it blows up taking some of the Egg Bois down. Luna then throws a chain, and she wraps it around Sir Pentious. "Going down?" She pulls him to her, and then she lands a punch to his face sending him to the mast.

Sir Pentious tries to get his mind back on track, but then Lady Ace flies above, and she sends some energy blasts, but Sir Pentious avoids these, and he yells. "They're bringing the chains over the ropes and casting us down to the depths! Prepare to haul your senses and take the traditional way!"

They all stop, and the Egg Bois are confused, and then one of them asks. "What was that captain?"

Sir Pentious sighs. "Abandon ship."

"Oooooooh." all the Egg Bois panic and they head for the long boats, which are hover vessels.

Sir Pentious pushes a button, and the turbines of the ship are now offline. "See you next time, and next time I will beat you!" Sir Pentious leaps off, and lands in a hover long boat, and he takes off, and a portal opens and Sir Pentious and his Egg Bois, well some of them make it through.

Lady Ace realizes, this thing is going down. "I need to get this thing to land someplace..." But then it remains in flight. "Whoa, wait what?"

Luna comes out from the cabin. "Went into the main engine room, and required some stuff, and now it is back in flight and not crashing."

Lincoln waves to the other aircraft, and his wave means that Sir Pentious is dealt with. Lincoln then looks to Lady Ace. "We'll have this thing sent to Tannins, or perhaps Cherri Bomb would want to use this."

Lady Ace nods. "Thanks guys, and thanks for the save too. Everything is Ace-Okay once more, but also..." she kisses Lincoln on the cheek. "See you around, Silva Hound." She then flies off and Lincoln chuckles.

They then commandeer this flying vessel and head for Tannins base. Just then, Luna's phone rings, and so both siblings see the text message, and it's another gig.

Client: Jack William.
A college student in his early 20's, and wanted to make friends when he was there, and reconnect with some of his pals from the past, when his roommate Auggie came back to their shared room, he found the body of Jack all beaten up, bruised and raped to death. Auggie knows who did this and he called the cops, Jack is residing in the Hazbin Hotel and he used to be a bully back then too. Mostly to his friends.

Targets: Julian Bowers, Eddy Butcher and Ivan Carterson.
All three are in their 20's, and all three are from three different schools, they want revenge on Jack for changing, succeeding and befriending Auggie. These three were suspended when Jack ratted them out, and thus they had to start High School all over again while Jack advanced in college.

Results: They are hiding in an apartment in New York, but chances they might make a run for it now that the cops are hot on their trail. Good luck finding them, and kill them with flaming chainsaws.

Lincoln and Luna smirk reading this, but they will need Tannins help if they are to know where those boys are should they not be there.

"To be continued in the next chapter folks!"
A/N: Yeah, we still got Cash Buckzo to worry about, then we have the Striker problem, and thanks to "Avenger44" for the client and targets, it will be for tomorrow. I hope that you all enjoyed reading this newly posted chapter folks!
