Part Two: Meet Barbie Wire
Back in the Sloth Ring, the sky a pale pink, Blitzo peered around a corner of the St. Ann's (Satan's) hospital. A thick canopy tree with giant yellow eyes in the leaves and a wavy purple trunk stood in the background. Seeing the coast was clear, he darted past a window. He wore his usual work outfit with a dark suit, dark boots and a torn dark blue cape trailing behind him. He raced across the grounds and climbed up a white downspout and inched his way, carefully sideways to the windows on the second floor. In the sky were floating trees on rocks and a few buildings. Blitzo peered inside and spotted silver Venus fly trap plants.
He lifted up the window, straining to get his horns through it…
"Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on…"
He rolled haphazardly inside…
"Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, SHIT!"
…and landed on a heap on the tile floor. A poster with a happy cloud on it with a thumbs-up read "Enjoy your stay!" There was a nearby bookshelf, a pool table, a few red cloud-shaped couches, and Venus fly trap plants filled the room. Overhead was a chandelier of glowing lavender orbs, the lights producing a soothing atmosphere.
Blitzo was hoisting himself up when…
ZAP!
With a yell, the imp got tasered in the back. His butt stood up in the air.
"Well, if it isn't the deadbeat," scoffed a voice from behind him.
Blitzo stood up, brushing himself off. "Well, if it isn't nurse pussy-face," he responded.
The demon nurse stood with a hand on her hip, wearing a teal uniform. She had a nametag, and a pocket with the upside-down cross logo on it with a heart pencil and pen inside. She was heavyset, with floppy ears, pink skin, short dark hair and pointed black horns with white stripes. Her eyes were teal, her eyebrow thick and she had lipstick and a sideways mouth with sharp teeth. Like other denizens in Sloth, she had a candle at the top of her head and a pointed tail.
"You ain't gettin' in here," she said to Blitzo, folding her arms. "How many times do I have to sodomize you with a taser before you take a hint?"
"As many as it takes to get me off, now enough with this foreplay, where's Barb?"
"She checked out months ago, but that ain't none of your business," said the nurse.
"Wait, what?" Blitzo asked in shock. "How? This is…wh-where the fuck did she go?"
"Yeah, like I'm gonna tell you, ass clown," she barked, holding up the taser in warning.
"You know I kill people for a living, right bitch?"
"Oh, I'm so FUCKIN' scared," she sarcastically responded.
"Ugh, fine," Blitzo scoffed, stomping over toward the window.
"Blitz, she's got a job now, a life," mentioned the nurse. "Don't fuck it up by finding her."
Blitzo rolled his eyes as he climbed out the window. "Oh, that's nice, why don't you take that advice and shove it right between your pussy liiiipppps!"
Blitzo screamed as he fell to the ground. Amazingly, he survived.

Blitzo stomped in frustration into his office at I.M.P Headquarters, ignoring his employees. At his desk, Blitzo was talking on his cellphone and browsing on his red laptop. The logo on the laptop was a glowing white demon head. "RIDE ME" was written on Blitzo's cellphone cover. There were two ads on the screen: one showed a pink succubus with her bare butt showing over blue flames. "Lusttinder (Tinder page for the Lust Ring, an app made by Asmodeus), "You're right, your husband's cock IS too small, find a bigger one NOW!"
And the other ad on Gaggle/Google: "CLICK ON THIS AD AND GET $100M! I'M NOT FUCKING WITH YOU DUDE, FOR THE LOVE OF SATAN JUST CLICK IT!"
Blitzo spotted Barbie Wire's profile page. It had no profile picture and it read: "BARBIE WIRE: currently looking for work! Just got outta rehab. Previous Experience in a circus (performer). 217 followers. Barbie hasn't posted recently. Experience: Acrobatics, Endurance, Stealth, Improv, Labor."
"Why the fuck wouldn't she tell you where she was going?! I mean did you even ask?! Wait hold on, I'm getting another call…hellooooo!" He paused. "Oh good, did you find…really? Where? Thanks, and I promise if we ever get a contract on your children, we'll make it quick and painless…BYEEEE!"
Blitzo raced past his employees.
Meanwhile, In the Sloth Ring, Blitzo entered a room where pill bottles were stored on shelves. The wallpaper was pink and decorated with designs of hearts, pills, and health crosses. The double glass doors had a pill icon on them. The white-haired incubus was scrolling on his phone when Blitzo slipped up to the desk. He held out his phone with a picture of his sister on it.
"Hi, I'm looking for one of your employees. Her name is Barbie. Does she work here?"
"Wait, what? Who are you?" the incubus glared.
Blitzo grabbed him by his shirt and slammed him against the wall.
"Someone who's gonna get reeeal creative if you don't tell him what he wants!" Blitzo barked. He slapped the incubus on the face with his pointed tail. "Where is she, fucknut?"
Blitzo pressed harder. "I know you know! It only gets worse from here, asshole!"
The incubus raised his white hands. "Okay! Okay! She's out on a pickup!"
Blitzo lowered him. "Where?"
"In the Lust Ring!"
So Blitzo traveled to the Lust Ring and slammed a smaller incubus against an alley wall. "Have a Robo Fizz personal companion!" was advertised on a flier. Another poster read in neon pink letters, "Welcome to the LUST RING! Have an eXXXtraordinary stay!"
"It's here man, I swear!" cried the small incubus to Blitzo.
Blitzo raised his flintlock pistol threateningly and held it under his chin. "Open it!"
The long black-haired incubus raised his hands and pulled out a large crystal on a ring. It was a magical Asmodean crystal, used by succubi and incubi under Asmodeus to travel to Earth to torment humans. The incubus pointed the crystal and a diamond shimmering portal appeared to a forest on Earth.
"Thanks, chump," Blitzo grinned. He tossed the incubus away (he fell into a dumpster) and jumped through the portal.

Moxxie peered over the bushes and spied on two figures entering the cabin and closing the door. Moxxie turned around and made his way through them. He stumbled downward and landed on…
"What in the…SIR?!"
…the back of his boss.
Blitzo shoved Moxxie off him.
"MOXXIE?! What the fuck are you doing here?!"
"Trying to finish the job you gave me," Moxxie replied.
"Christ on a stick, you're still working on that? It's been like a fucking week. THIS is why I don't trust you with dick, Mox," Blitzo remarked.
Moxxie followed Blitzo and both of them snuck up to the cabin. They pressed their back against the wall.
"And what exactly are you doing here, sir?"
"Apparently helping finish your botched job," Blitzo glared. "But mostly I'm looking for my sister…"
Knowing the killer camp counselor lurked inside, Blitzo kicked down the door. There was a small green boat in the middle of the water. Near the "Missing" fliers were packs of drugs stacked on top of each other off to the side. Sunlight shone through the holes in a cloth over an opening.
Sure enough, the counselor was there, looking like a surprised innocent white nerd. He had dirty blonde short hair, glasses, a small beard, and wore a camp cap, brown shorts, brown boots, and a green shirt.
But he was not alone. A slender woman stood behind him, wearing a short torn black sleeveless jacket and a torn dress with red and white stripes on it. She wore dark tall boots and a gold watch on her right wrist. Her fingers were claws and some white lines and Xs scarred her light brown arms. The woman's hair was a reddish brown with two large ponytails that curled inward like horns. Blitzo spotted the black Mammon circus mark on her forehead, crossed out by a white X. It was the same mark that Blitzo, Fizzarolli and his family had on their foreheads.
As soon as he spotted the crossed-out mark, he knew who it was.
"BARBIE?!" Blitzo asked in shock.
"BLITZ?!" Barbie Wire cried, equally surprised.
"You know her?" Moxxie asked.
"Do I know her? That's my sister, fuckface!" Blitzo replied.
"What the fuck are you doing here, shithead?!" Barbie barked.
"I should be asking you the same thing!" Blitzo fired back. "You check yourself out of rehab, no call, no note…and I have to track you down to this shithole with…" he paused, looking at the man. "…who the fuck is this?"
Barbie put a hand over his face. "No one, he works for me. And who's the little twink here?" She looked at Moxxie.
Blitzo covered Moxxie's face with his hand. "No one…he works for me."
"Sir! That guy's the target!" Moxxie called.
Blitzo smirked and folded his arms. "Oh shit, Barb! Looks like your little boy toy got himself into some trouble."
"The fuck are you talking about?" Barbie asked.
"He killed our client and now our client wants to kill him back," Moxxie explained. Blitzo nodded.
Barbie turned to the man in anger. "You fucking WHAT?!"
The man shrugged. "He found out about your drugs."
Barbie waved a hand. "I don't want to fucking hear it, kid!" She turned to Blitzo and Moxxie, pointing. "Look, you're not killing my supplier!"
Blitzo put a hand to his head. "Oh fuck…supplier of what? You're not back on that H-8 are you?" Blitzo pointed an accusing finger. Moxxie pulled out a worn dagger.
Barbie rolled her eyes. "FUCK NO, it's just heroin!"
"Oh thank, Satan," Blitzo sighed. "So now you're peddling heroin? What's the point? That shit barely gets rid of a headache."
The three individuals stepped closer toward the middle of the space, save for the man who hid behind the drugs.
"It's honest work, okay?" Barbie said. "And I thought it would be sure to keep me as far away from you as possible."
Moxxie waved his knife. "And you teamed up with genius here because…?"
"Do you have any idea how easy teenage humans are to manipulate?" Barbie smirked, mentioning to her partner.
"Heeey! No, I'm not!" the man protested.
Barbie turned to him, widening her eyes. She moved her butt seductively, showing her black underwear, and spoke in a babyish voice.
"Oh Jimmy-wimmy, can you pwease keep loading up deez druggie-wuggies for me?"
Jimmy blushed, raising his eyebrows. "Heh, sure Barb. Whatever you say."
"Sir…" Moxxie fumed to Blitzo. "I've spent a week on this…" He held up his knife. "I'm finishing it, one way or another…"
Barbie stepped forward, sharp teeth bared, her eyes briefly glowing white. "DON'T YOU DARE!"
The four of them then got into a brawl. After briefly noticing the fireworks outside, Moxxie growled and leaped toward Jimmy with his weapon. Jimmy flinched as Moxxie was thrown into the water by Barbie's long pointed tail. Barbie pressed a button on her Asmodean Crystal and she morphed into her demon imp form. Her skin was red and her horns were black and curved with small white stripes.
"Come on Blitzo," she mocked, using the "o" in his name on purpose to annoy him, "…Haven't you fucked my life up enough already?!"
Moxxie reached out a hand and crawled out of the water toward Jimmy. Barbie pulled him back with her tail and he fell into her. He landed some fists near her face. The frightened Jimmy hoped over the drugs and raced toward the door. He frantically pulled on the knot holding the cloth and flinched back as Moxxie's dagger hit the spot where he had been.
Barbie was chocking Moxxie and Blitzo was choking Barbie as they struggled to free themselves. Moxxie fell to the ground and Barbie held him down with a hand. She punched his head before Blitzo removed her hand. Moxxie crawled away from Barbie and raced toward Jimmy. He leaped off the boat and lunged for him. He punched him in the face before Barbie raced over and attempted to start the boat. Moxxie knocked her off to the side and moved Jimmy's head toward the deadly motor blades of the boat. Barbie knocked Moxxie down with a hard punch to his head. Blitzo retaliated by pulling his sister up in a headlock.
Moxxie attempted to catch Jimmy again, the man screaming in fear. Barbie tackled Moxxie to the ground in midair. Moxxie stood up, accidentally stepping onto Blitzo's head. Barbie leaned back and pulled hard at Moxxie's wig. Jimmy shivered with fear further back. Blitzo's eyes were swollen and he took tired breaths. Moxxie choked Jimmy again as Barbie growled and jabbed him in the face with her elbow. Eventually, Moxxie was thrown against the wall, eye makeup melting around his eyes. He pulled his knife from the wall and stalked toward Jimmy once again, teeth barred. As Jimmy stepped back, Barbie cut in front of Moxxie, landing punches of her own while dodging his knife. She also shoved Jimmy aside. She punched Moxxie in the face, holding his wrist and he jabbed her in the abdomen. The knife fell and he grabbed it. Moxxie was about to grab him when Barbie tackled him from behind. Barbie held Moxxie down as Blitzo shoved Jimmy into the water.
Not too long after, Barbie choked Blitzo near the steps. Moxxie had a cut on his forehead, staring with menace at Jimmy. With a bloodied mouth, Jimmy pleaded for mercy. Barbie tackled Moxxie again before he could reach him. All three imps growled and tugged at each other, while Jimmy crept up the steps. He grabbed a package of heroin and threw it into the imps. Their eyes turned black and they roared primal roars. Jimmy stood on the boat in fear. In a split second he spotted the firework rocket heading toward him through a window…
BOOM!
Jimmy's head exploded and the imps got rained in blood.
"SATAN FUCKING DAMMIT!" Barbie bellowed in rage. "Thanks a lot, Blitzo, I'm out of a job! FUCK!"
She stomped off.
"Barb, wait!" Blitzo cried, wanting to make amends. "I want to help you…let me help you. Please? You're clean now, right? Let's grab dinner, we'll catch up and we'll talk about…"
Barbie let out a forced laugh and turned back to her brother. "You don't fucking GET IT!" She jabbed her finger into his chest. "Just cause I'm outta rehab, doesn't mean I wanna see you. I NEVER WANNA see you EVER!"
Barbie marched off and pressed her Asmodean Crystal. A shimmering diamond portal appeared, leading back to the Sloth Ring. She stepped through it and peered out.
"Next time you wanna find me Blitzo…DON'T!"
She vanished and the portal closed. Blitzo stood heartbroken and Moxxie had his head in his hands. Blood covered the floors, walls, and the imps. Blitzo couldn't believe after all the time he spent searching for her, she had vanished again. What had he done to hurt her so horribly?
