In this chapter, all hell will break loose and everything that will happen will change the perspective of everyone in hell forever, this is where the chaos will make things become something far more destructive. Will the land of demons and sinners ever be the same again? Let's find out shall we.
In collaboration with "Kranon the Deathclaw-Human" Yeah, I know. I don't know why this is a name either, but it does sound kinda cool and he made this happen and all thanks to a comic he/she saw and I saw it too and let's say I am gonna make sure it's changed into something less ugly and bloody. Enjoy folks.
Helluva Loud Adventures.
Extermination/Cleansing Day – Occurs once every year, this whole thing was made in order to decrease the overpopulation of demons and sinners in hell. Okay, so sinners only. It is unknown on who were responsible for this plan, but some have theorized that the idea was made by the agreement between the Lord almighty in the heavens up above and to the lord of hell, Lucifer himself.
It is unknown as to when was this made, but it always occurs on the 28th of October and when this does happen, all demons and sinners must make like cowards and either run for their lives and hide, or if they're feeling brave and stupid, try to fight off the threat and survive. But, how can you be able to fight a servant of god, the angels of death or what the sinners call: The Exterminators.
They come down to hell to commence the purge of the local populace of hell, common demons are not so easy to kill when a demon kills another, the best way to kill them is to use the weaponry forged from the angels above and only those weapons can permanently end any demon or sinners life and make sure they never come back.
Through this, hell will have only a few sinners until new sinners come to their home after they're demise on earth. But the one type of sinner or demon that is not easy for the angels of death to take down, are those who are ranked as Overlords, there have been rumors that five overlords tried to fight them once and died, but it is unknown who were those overlords.
As of now there aren't much overlords of hell who linger anymore, the only ones known around and are dubbed as the most powerful are: Alastor and Vox, and they both have been keeping clear of the whole Extermination and living they're life in hell with whatever shit they can do.
But when the cleansing is done, that's when the violence commences once again and therefore territory control is up for grabs and all sinners and demons fight for every block of the land, and this brings way too much chaos and destruction that causes so much property damage, but who gives a shit am I right?
But there are some good when the cleansing is over and I don't mean the territory that is up for grabs, what I mean is the weaponry left behind. When the angels have finished they're work, they ascend back to the heavens and at times they don't have time to grab what they have used and they leave their weapons alone back in hell.
But why do some of them leave their weapons? Did they forget or did they do it on purpose? Either way, the demons who find these weapons are darn right lucky to have them. They can either use these as weapons to fight off other demons and sinners or they can sell them to the highest bidder at any of Lucifer's auction places or sell them illegally to Pentagram City's local black-market.
The only one we have seen with this kind of weaponry is Vagatha Mothra, she must've found the weapons or she bought them legally, that or because she's the lover of Charlie she has access to them to keep Charlie safe.
Now I think I'm getting out of context here, we should probably get back to the chapter. But why am I making this part all about the dreaded Extermination/Cleansing day? Well, let's say sometimes you never know when changes have been made, changes by the verdict of Lucifer and God himself.
(October 27, somewhere in Imp City.)
At a nearby coffee shop not too far from I.M.P. Loona, Lincoln, Luna and Octavia are chilling and going through some stuff that have happened as they had went through another school day and also telling Octavia what they did when they faced the bank robbers at town. Thankfully, not much demons are at the coffee shop, so they can talk what they wish to speak.
Lincoln and Luna are wearing their hellhound disguises so demons and sinners don't know they're human.
As they continue to talk, Lincoln notices someone walking towards them. "Uncle Moxx? What the heck are you doing out here and what the heck is with the box?"
They all see Moxxie with a large box. "What the heck is with the box dude?" asked Luna.
Moxxie sighs and he puts the box on the table. "Blitzo said to deliver this package to Stolas, and then see if he needs any help at his place."
Octavia then realizes. "That must be the package my father has been waiting for, I guess he wanted his affairs partner to hold onto it and have it sent to him, also my dad won't have anything for you to do at our home since everything seems to be alright, except for his laundry. But, why are you being sent to deliver the package to my dad?"
Moxxie sighs. "Apparently, Blitzo said that he wants his "Employee of the month" to do this great and responsible task for him and that he has some business that involves going through a list of our next assassination jobs. But I know he's doing this because he doesn't wanna deal with your father."
Loona smirks. "Leave it to Blitzo to let the others do his work, well time for you to be on your way Mr. Employee of the month." This makes Octavia chuckle as well, though Lincoln and Luna don't know if this is even funny.
Moxxie grumbles and he carries the box and walks all the way to where Stolas lives.
"So, anything else we have planned for tomorrow?" asked Lincoln. "I mean, the cleansing starts tomorrow and we have to begin cleaning up everything and make our way back to Royal Woods and to the old house."
"We have everything packed up and ready" replied Loona. "There's no need to overreact kiddo, the whole purge isn't until tomorrow and I for one look forward to seeing what it's like to live in that old house you guys once lived in."
"At least you guys have a fortified place to stay, just as me and my parents and those at the Hazbin Hotel" replied Octavia. "What about Cherri Bomb though?"
"Aunt Cherri said she can bunker down at the hotel and smiles said he's got the whole place under some kind of voodoo thing to keep it safe and away from any angels" replied Luna. "But, we did offer Cherri salvation in the old house, but she said she'll think about it. Besides, she has to be prepped up for when a new territory is up for grabs."
Lincoln sighs and looks to his hot chocolate. "This is gonna be our first time with the cleansing day, and we're not gonna be here to see it through. As long as the family stays together and stays alive, then we'll be fine. All of us."
Loona places her hand onto his shoulder. "We're gonna be fine, and sure as heck so will our friends. We're all gonna be okay and there is no way in hell are we gonna love each other to some fucking angel of death."
"We told some of our pals. Some of Linc's friends and chances they'll be ready to greet us when we do get back to Royal Woods" replied Luna.
"At least you all have a plan, and everyone will be safe when the angels do come. For now, let's enjoy this moment before the whole fucking purge begins" replied Octavia.
They continue to enjoy this moment, but they have no idea that things are about to turn bad shit crazy real fast.
(A few hours later, I.M.P Headquarters.)
They have finished they're day in the city and Octavia has left back to her home and now they're back in their home and they go into the meeting room and they see Blitzo going through some future assassinations, looks like Moxxie was sorta right.
"So, what's the deal now? Anyone called us?" asked Loona as she sits on one of the chairs.
"Quite a lot, tons of clients are wanting the death of some folks up above and the list sure is fucking long" said Millie.
"We're gonna need to setup a date for each one and when the whole day of killing demons and sinners is done, we need to know which client is still alive, if the client is dead then we can't do the job" replied Blitzo.
Lincoln goes to the list and sees all the names. "Well, whoever we're going after, we have to do a background check on….." They stop when they all hear this siren sound. "What in the fuck is that sound? Sounds like some kind of air raid siren."
But then they see the look of dread in the eyes of Blitzo, Loona and Millie. "Guys, what the heck is going on?" asked Luna.
"That sound….. It can't be" said Millie. "That's the siren! That's the signal that the extermination is gonna begin!"
Lincoln and Luna are shocked and filled with fear. "What?!"
Blitzo then intervenes. "Now hang on guys, let's not get our dicks in a twist here. Could be some kind of drill, or someone is pulling a prank and making everyone panic like assholes."
Loona then sees a text from Octavia. "Guys, I don't think this is a drill, because Octavia is not at her place." They all go over and check the message.
Octavia: Loona! Everyone listen up, this is not a fucking drill! This is no drill, I am here at the Hotel and Alastor just said this is not a drill. He saw a massive flock of Exterminators inbound through the eyes from one of his shadows! The Extermination has been made early, get the fuck out of there, now!
Seeing this was making them scared, then Lincoln realizes something. 'Uncle Moxxie.'
This makes Loona angry. "Why the fuck didn't they update everyone about this shit?!"
They then see a notification from all of their hellphones and are all wide eyed from what they read.
RED ALERT!
The Extermination/Cleansing Date has been moved up a day before Nov. 28.
Take Shelder as fast as possible.
THIS IS NOT A DRILL!
All of them are shocked seeing this, but Loona is pissed off. "Oh sure, thanks a lot for the fucking early warning to whoever made this shitty warning! I am gonna fucking kill them for this shit!"
"We have to get out of here, now! And fast!" said Luna. "We have everything packed, we all just need to grab our shit, open up the portal and head to the house and stay there till this shit blows off right?!"
"Calm down, let's move as fast as we can and not lose focus" said Blitzo. But they did not know someone is not with them, or better yet two are not with them.
They all get out of the meeting room and luckily the things Moxxie and Millie packed are there in the receptionists lobby, but then Millie stops and realizes. "Wait! Moxxie's not here! Where is he?!"
Luna and Loona recall. "Blitzo, you sent him to Stolas right?" asked Loona.
Millie is wide eyed. "What? Why did you send him out there?!" Millie grabs her boss by his coat, but Luna holds her back.
"I….. I had to make him… Go on a delivery run to….. To Stolas, but he'll be safe at his place" said Blitzo nervously. "He won't be harmed as long as he stays with Stolas and his wife at his home."
"So, that means he's safe right?" asked Loona. Then they hear Millie's phone, and it sounded like Moxxie signing. (Oh, Millie.)
Millie then grabs her phone and answers it. "Moxx? Are you okay? Are you safe? Where are you?!" On the other side, they hear Moxxie and he sounds nervous and he's whispering to them.
Moxxie: Millie, listen to me. Where I am is not important, just get the fuck out of hell with the others, I'll be safe where I am right now and no I am not at Stolas' place. I left his home and that's when I got the late fucking notification and also heard the siren sound. I think I'm safe, but I have to remain quiet, they're… They're close by."
Millie and the others are shocked to hear this, it means he's in range of the Exterminators who are looking for any demons and sinners out in the open and then they hear some explosions in the distance, which means a demon is trying to fight off the angels of death.
Moxxie: Millie, everyone. Get out of there now, it's only a matter of time before one of those winged fuckers come and kill all of you. Grab what you guys need and go to Royal Woods. I just….. Oh no, oh shit no. Go, guys you have to go now….. I'll be fine, I hope.
Millie is now teary eyed as she hears Moxxie sounding scared, then they hear the sounds of rubble and wood being moved, which only means he has been found.
Luna then looks around and she notices something. "Guys! Where the heck is Lincoln?!" They all look around and Loona is now panicking. Her son is gone, and now she knows where he is.
(Somewhere around the city far from I.M.P.)
Moxxie backs up as he's now face-to-face with an Angel, this angel is a female and is wearing a smiling mask with two X's and red smiling teeth. Moxxie backs up as the angel has her spear ready and it's glowing.
Moxxie sheds some tears. "Millie, I think…. I want you to know, how much you mean to me. B-Because….. Because I don't think I'll be able… To come home, honey."
Millie: What? Moxx, what the fuck are you saying?! Moxxie? What's happening?
Something is sprinting on all fours and is inbound to the location with his claws ready and his eyes searing red and his teeth now sharp.
Moxxie has tears and he closes his eyes as this is happening and he readies his final words as this Exterminator is smiling and walking towards him slowly.
"Millie! Honey….. Listen! I'm just… So, sorry. I….. I love you so much and…. To the kids we….. We call family as well. Millie…. You….. You'll always be my Queen!"
The Angel has her spear ready to strike. "I love you Millie!" And he closes his eyes and gets ready to feel the stinging pain from the angelic weapon, but he doesn't.
Instead Moxxie sees, a kid dressed as a hellhound and has his claws blocking the spear. "Lincoln?!"
The boy then pushes the angel away from Moxxie and he has pure anger in his eyes. "Stay away from my uncle! Don't you dare hurt him you winged monster from the skies!"
The angel backs up and chuckles. "How cute, this little pup cares for this little runt of a demon spawn. You won't be able to save him for long, because you'll be joining him soon!"
The angel then tries to stab the hellhound kid, but Lincoln manages to evade all the incoming attacks and also try to strike down the angel as well with his claws and they seem to be of equal match. The angel leaps up and strikes down, but Lincoln steps aside and he kicks the angel in the face.
The Exterminator looks back to the boy and snickers. "Very impressive, didn't think my first day on this job was gonna be a fight and I like this!" The angel then lunges forward and tries to strike Lincoln, but he steps to the side and he elbows the angel in the back and the angel drops to the ground and tries to get up, but Lincoln tries to stab him only for the angel to see there is an opening and she manages to cut Lincoln to the side of his body and he falls to the ground and holds onto his left side.
The Angel then kicks Lincoln away and he hits the brick wall. "Lincoln!" Moxxie rushes over towards him and sees he's bleeding to his left side. "We have to get you out of here now! Also, what the fuck were you thinking?!"
Lincoln then looks and sees the angel is now in front of them. "You are one skilled hellhound. Never fought one before and surely you will make a great prize and story for me to tell. Now, time for the two of you to die!"
The angel spins her spear and is ready to strike, but then she stops and looks to the hellhound and the spot where he's bleeding. "What?" She then looks to her spear and the blood at the edge of her blade and touches it.
The angel is shocked at what she sees. "No. No, it… It can't be." She looks to the blood and sees it has some hellhound traits in there, but there is so much, human blood. She then looks to Lincoln and she removes his hoodie and mask and she can see his tears and his face.
The angel backs up and drops her spear and her smile is gone. "No. No. Not possible, you….. You're….. You're not a demon, not a sinner…. You're….. Human?"
Moxxie helps Lincoln back to his feet. "Y-Yeah, so what of it bitch?! You wanna fucking go?!" said Lincoln, but he cringes at the pain he's feeling.
The female Exterminator looks to the boy and she sheds some tears, which are glowing like light. "What have I done?" She then looks around and she contacts the rest of the angels and her eyes glow. "All Exterminators. All Exterminators. Call it off now! We have to leave, retreat! Retreat!"
All the exterminators around the lands of Imp City and Pentagram City take flight and ascend from the land of hell and through the portal to heaven. The angel than grabs her spear with the boy's blood and she looks to Lincoln who is about to collapse, she then goes over and helps him up.
The angel looks to Moxxie. "Where does he live?"
(I.M.P Headquarters.)
Loona paces back and forth as she tries to call Lincoln over and over. "Lincoln, pick up now! Fuck it Linc, come on!"
Even Luna is trying to call him, while Millie is crying her heart out on the chair and then there's the bruised Blitzo. Let's just say Millie thought Moxxie was killed and she went berserk and attacked her boss.
Blitzo is now crying, he let Moxxie on a delivery that was supposed to be his job and now he's gone and Lincoln went out to find Moxxie and now he's gone too.
They then hear the door open. "Lincoln?! Where the…." Loona is shocked to see one of the Exterminators with Moxxie.
"Moxx!" Millie goes over and hugs him. "Where? How did….? Oh my Satan!" They see the angel is carrying Lincoln and she places the boy on the table.
Loona and Luna go over to the table and so does Blitzo, Moxxie and Millie and they look to the boy who is now pale white and having a hard time breathing. "Lincoln….. Don't you dare close your eyes, I am not losing you! Not again!"
Moxxie and Millie grab the first aid kit and they try to patch up Lincoln's wound. Blitzo is wide eyed and has tears, he now sees where his antics have led him and now he's gonna lose a family member and just when he thought Moxxie was killed, now he gets a front row seat of his adopted grandson about to die.
Luna is speechless and she holds her brother's hand as he looks to them all. "Linc, no….. Not again, please! Please, don't do this to me, not again Lincoln!"
Lincoln can barely breathe. "M-Mom… Luna…. I….. I don't feel… I don't feel so…. So good."
The angel stands there and looks to them and is shocked at everything and what the boy said to the hellhound woman. 'There's another human and she is this child's sister and…. The hellhound, is his mother? Adopted? What is this?'
Seeing his wound and that he was going to die, the angel pushes Moxxie and Millie aside and the others look to the angel in anger, but her hands glow and she looks to Lincoln. "I'm sorry, I didn't know what you were. But I will make sure that mistake is fixed."
That is the last thing he sees, before he blacks out.
(An hour later.)
Lincoln opens his eyes and he sees where he is. He gets up and sees a blanket on him and next to him on her knees and asleep are Loona and Luna and both are clinging onto each other and holding his hand.
Moxxie and Millie are both crying at what had happened and Blitzo is tending to his own wounds and he seems to have more injuries than he had earlier. Then he looks to Lincoln and is wide eyed. "He's awake!"
Loona and Luna wake up immediately. "What?!" Moxxie and Millie also notice this and they all go to him.
"What? What the fuck happened to me?" asked Lincoln. He then looks to his left side and he sees the bandage wrappings and then Loona and Luna hug him, and so does Moxxie and Millie.
Blitzo doesn't get into this, still fearing of another beat down he's gonna get from Moxxie, Millie and Loona and also from Luna, they got enraged after Lincoln was on the couch and they attacked him.
They then break from the hug and he sees his mom has tears, but then she wipes her tears away and is stern. "What the fuck were you doing out there?! You almost got yourself killed?!"
Lincoln knew this would happen. "Mom, I had to. Moxxie was ou there….. He needed help and…. He's family. We're family, we don't leave each other to die. I was not gonna let him get killed from something he didn't know was gonna come."
Moxie is touched by this and so is Millie and Blitzo who looks down with guilt. Luna and Loona have tears but both are stern at Lincoln and they both hug him. "You're lucky you're okay now. We're glad you're okay brother!" said Luna.
"Don't ever fucking to that again!" replied Loona as she hugs her son tightly, but not too tight as to not cause any harm to his injury.
Lincoln hugs them back and then he recalls something. "Guys, what happened to the angel who brought Moxx and me here?"
They then depart from the hug. "That angel left an hour ago and she said something about coming back and talking to…. To all of us about this" replied Luna.
"If that bitch comes back, then I am gonna fucking kill her!" said Loona.
"Perhaps that will be soon Ms. Silva Hound, but not now." They all see Alastor has arrived. "Glad to see you in one piece Lincoln, and all of you safe." He then looks to the condition of Blitzo. "You look like road kill."
Lincoln gets up, he may be sore but he's fine with standing up. "Alastor, what are you doing here?"
The Radio Demon is both upset and also has some joy. "It appears your actions has made headlines throughout hell and though it all, saved this land from the early Extermination."
All of them are confused by what he just said. "What do you mean made headlines?" asked Moxxie.
Alastor then makes a portal. "Come with me to the hotel now. We all have much to discuss."
To be continued…
A/N: The Extermination came fucking early and that was too close for them to lose Moxxie, and Lincoln. Way too close and things might not look so good anymore with Lincoln known as a human living in hell and chances that Angel will tell the rest of heaven about this and who knows what the great creator above has to say about this.
What did Alastor mean by, his actions made headlines? All will be revealed for the next chapter. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
I would like to once again thank "Kranon the Deathclaw-Human" for this early Extermination idea, and concepts and the incoming aftermath of it all.
