Author's Note: Last time on Xandar's Helluva Adventures, the Immediate Murder Professionals went to Loo Loo Land! However, in a scuffle involving a creepy clown robot, Xandar got injured. What happens next? Let's find out!
With Season 2 finally releasing its first episode, I decided to add Stella's cruel nature.
Also...I Now realize that what Xandar and Stella will have, no matter how small it may seem, IS incest...I didn't think that part through fully. I'm sorry I was angry about it. I really hope you guys aren't upset with me. Once again, I'm truly sorry.
Let's go into this shall we?
Chapter Nine: Waking in A House of Royalty
Xandar's P.O.V:
I see my mother injured before me. I cry heavily. "Mom! Please, stay with me!" I cry out. She's sobbing heavily. This isn't the end! This is NOT the end! Before I can say or do anything I hear someone walk up behind me.
"Pity, isn't it?" a voice says causing me to jump back in fear. It's a guy in a suit and tie. He looks at me with a cruel smirk and then shakes his head. "The truth is hard for the young! Sob, sob," he mocks before laughing.
I feel my eye twitch. "Was that supposed to be a joke?" I growl. "Because I'm not laughing!" I shout in anger.
"Geez kid, relax," the man says calmly. "It's the great circle of life. People are born, they grow up, they grow old and die. It's a pattern." He paces back and forth. "However," he says placing a hand on his chin. "I MAY be able to...save her." He smiles at my shocked look. "What?" he demands. "At least I'm WILLING to help you," he says with a roll of his eyes.
"How...How can you POSSIBLY save her?" I demand. He rolls his eyes again.
"I am an expert in these scenarios," the man explains. "All you need to do," he trails off still smirking. "Is accept a little deal." I stand up and look at him.
"Yes!" I agree. "Anything!"
"Good," he replies. "Shake on it?" he asks holding out his hand. I nod and shake his hand. In that moment I feel something grab my legs. It's a ton of arms. I start gasping and trying to escape. It's no use. I start crying.
"MOM!" I shout as I'm dragged below...
"MOM!" I scream jolting awake. I see someone jump out of the corner of my eye. I turn to look at said person. "Octavia?" I ask with a shocked expression. I can't believe she's here. Wait. Where is here?
"Oh Xandar!" she gasps giving me a hug. "You're ok!" she cries happily. "I-I thought I l-lost you!" she cries holding me tight. I return the hug.
"I'm ok," I say with a smile. She let's go of me and takes a step back. She raises an eyebrow. "I'm fine! Really," I try to reason. I attempt to sit up only for her to grab my shoulder and push me back downward.
"No, no!" she says worried. "You need to rest."
"But my job!" I begin in worry.
"Rest," Octavia repeats. "It will help you. Trust me." She looks at me expectantly. I nod and lie back down.
"Where am I?" I ask with a raised eyebrow.
"You're in the Ars Goetia Palace," she explains. "Mum wasn't too keen on you being here. Since you're a human and all that." Oh, fucking great. ANOTHER dick, or bitch in this case, who I need to convince that I mean only the best. Octavia must've read my thoughts because she nodded. "I know," she replied. "My mum is a princess and wants only the best out of life. She doesn't care much for humans. As far as she's concerned, you're nothing more than a useless meat sack." She stops immediately realizing what she said. "Uh, no offense. Sorry..." she says looking down.
"None taken!" I reply. "None taken at all," I smile. "I'm just glad you care."
"Well of course I care," she replies in a monotone voice. "You're my brother, Goetia or not. Mum doesn't know what she's talking about." That's as far as I hear before passing out again.
ZZZ
Octavia's P.O.V:
I sigh as Xandar passes out again. I hear screaming and groan. I JUST patched things up with dad. Now he's in yet ANOTHER screaming match with mom. I roll my eyes.
Why would dad do this to our family? I know he said he'd never leave me...but why do I have this feeling of doubt? I sigh again as I put my headphones in to ignore whatever argument they're having now.
ZZZ
Normal P.O.V:
Stolas and Stella were indeed in another argument. This time, it was on a...certain adoption portion.
"First, you sleep with an IMP!" Stella screams chucking a potted plant, which Stolas narrowly dodges, and then yells again.
"And NOW, you've adopted a human into our home!?" Stella demands.
"Yes!" Stolas yells back. "Only because he made a deal-"
Stella's eyes widened. "So now you're telling me, you didn't just adopt a human! But a human CONVICT!?" She screeches.
"Yes! He had nowhere else to go! No one to turn to! How can you be so cruel-"
"How, DARE you?" Stella demands and then backhands Stolas across the face. Stolas growls. "Oh WHAT?" Stella roars. "At least I give two fucks about the Goetia family and our status! You clearly don't!" She then chuckles. "At least I know better than to be a limp dick twig ass!"
"ENOUGH!" Stolas roars. "I'VE ADOPTED HIM AND THAT'S THAT! IF YOU'VE GOT A PROBLEM WITH IT, THEN YOU CAN LEAVE!" He finishes and growls.
Stella jaw dropped. She breaths heavily and throws a potted plant into a window shattering it. Stolas still held his ground. "Fine," Stella replies calmly. "But once he's healed, he is to leave."
Before Stolas could argue further, Stella storms off screaming again. Stolas sighs as a door slams, causing the room to shake.
Stolas, grabbed his head and shook it in annoyance. "Ugh. One of these days, she's going to knock this place down."
ZZZ
"What!?" Octavia shouts in shock. Stolas had just told her about Stella's arrangement. "How could you let her do this?" Octavia cried. "He's my brother now! He needs us!"
"I know..." Stolas replied. "I tried to talk her into it, but-"
"Then try harder! He cannot go back into a shitty apartment-"
"LANGUAGE young lady!" Stolas snaps. He covers his beak in shock. Octavia's jaw dropped, her eyes widened and even produced some tears. "Octavia...I..." he trails off as Octavia runs away.
"At least I care about him!" Octavia screams slamming her door shut.
Stolas bowed his head in shame, grabbed a glass of wine and drank it in two seconds flat. "Why does life have to be this way?" He asks himself rhetorically. Anything he just fixed with Octavia...had been broken again with a single emotion.
Author's Note: Next time on Xandar's Helluva Adventures, A real succu-bitch shows up and stirs trouble for I.M.P. Join them and Xandar as their spring break is Spring Broken.
