Helluva Loud Adventures.
"A High n' Buy Trouble."

(July 5. The Santiago Apartment, Great Lakes City.)

A portal from Royal Woods comes through and here we see Lincoln, Blitzo, Loona, and with Stolas, Stella and Octavia, and they are here for a nice visit, and then Blitzo speaks. "Alright, the rest you guys do what you want and I will be going to the Mercado." He then takes off, leaving the others alone.

"Well, we should get on with..." Lincoln then looks to the Ars Goetia. "What the heck did you guys have planned again?"

Stolas chuckles and then he speaks. "We have never been to this city, and we wanna know what fun we can have here. Such as the tallest tower tour thing, you have been through that, correct?"

Lincoln nods. "Yeah, I have and it is pretty cool. It's a long walk, but the fastest way would have to be on... Well, the Royal Woods Subway system, and we can reach it through there." they see the tunnel entrance nearby. "A dang good thing for the Chang's to reside here, makes it awesome walk for Mr. Chang to his workplace."

"Guys!" They see Sid, and Ronnie Anne and they both look concerned. "Something terrible has happened!"

They all head over and ask what is happening. "Sid, Ronnie Anne. What's going on, dudes?" asked Luna.

Ronnie Anne then speaks. "The High n' Buy supermarket has a new manager and he is so mean and he won't allow people who have been shopping at competition and he even is mean and too strict even to his staff, and he is beyond from being reasoned and he has been making promos to beat every other place that is a market based place."

Sid then speaks. "We saw him selling better fish, and making promos that the High n' Buy is better than the Casagrandes Mercado and can do better than them, and he even placed coupon promos and a loyalty promo to anyone who steps in and giving free samples and so many folks are now drawn to it, but not the people we know around the neighborhood, but some school students and Principal Valenzuela can no longer get out of the loyalty stick."

Loona is confused. "I don't get it, how does one guy manage to take control of people and keep them from other businesses?"

Ronnie Anne then speaks. "We sent off Breakfast Bot to spy on them and apparently he gives everyone these special bracelets when they come in, and when they try to buy at another place, then they get a mild shock. The cops can't seem to touch him, because the manager is the cousin of the mayor and he will make some excuse to have the police removed for wrong arrests."

Sid scoffs. "He is a damned and horrible man, and my mom and little sister almost fell for it, can't say much about Laird though, he got lured in good."

They are all surprised to hear this and then Octavia speaks. "Sounds like some fucking asshole has got the power meddled in their heads. We have to make this right and stop him."

Stolas and Stella are proud to hear their daughter wanting to do something good and then Stella speaks. "We must speak with this pathetic person and then deal with him in the right way, which is how we managed to get our arrangements made when business is all too necessary."

Stolas nods. "I can contact some friends of mine and I am sure that they will want to be interested in this High n' Buy, so this would take a while. Our family moment can wait, the good folks need assistance from this madness."

"I'm surprised that there hasn't been a sinner in hell who called us to kill that asshole, what the hell is his name?" asked Lincoln.

(The High n' Buy.)

Here we see the people are going inside to buy the stuff in there, and then the man who runs the place oversees what is happening, and who is he?

Sheldon E. Krust.
Large man with a muscular body and he has dark grey hair on his head in a military buzz cut style, and he is wearing the manager clothing of any High n' Buy, but he is wearing black military boots.

He smirks at everything he has done. 'Hah. High n' Buy made the damn right choice for me to be the manager. When they see just how better the sales and profits are here, then they will elevate me to be part of their board, and that is when I will use my cunningness to take over and rename all supermarts under one name, the Krusty Supermart franchise! Yeah, an awesome name!'

"Hey, Eugene!" the man didn't like his middle name being called out and he gets out and sees who it is and then he tries to be the smooth businessman that he is. Because he has heard all about the demons and the incident involving the louds and how popular they are ever since that whole thing.

"Hey there folks, and don't use that name please. So, it is a pleasure to have the good folks of Royal Woods come here, especially the legendary demon folks and..." He then sees Stolas and Stella and he recalls the news of an interview they had and they are royalty and he has dollar signs in his eyes. "Royalty here? Well, I think I can make sure that you folks are in for a treat, because we have the best in..."

"Pathetic and simple minded little person" replied Stella. "We are not here to sample your controlling ways and we can see businessman when we see it, there is no fooling us and we have been told about what you do. There is always someone on the inside who informs of what has happened."

"And everything you have done can be easily undone" replied Octavia. "So, best stop this madness and surrender."

Sheldon E. Krust then tries to be reasonable and to hold off his anger. "I don't know what the heck you guys are talking about? What is this weird thing going on here?" They can tell that he is trying to talk his way out of this and it certainly will not work, and so the hellhound speaks.

"We have heard about one thing, that you are a former soldier during the times of service in Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan, and in each turn and mission you have been trying to overthrow the chain of command and become someone above you, and that plan was ruined when your sergeant saw what you did and recorded the whole thing."

Luna then speaks. "Trying to rig explosives into the building they were gonna check was not a dang good move, and through that the entire system saw your little scheme and had you removed along with your partner, Derrick Carson, and that dude is dead in the head and never ever walking this way, I guess you can say... It was a team effort." She then high fives with the others.

Hearing this shocks Sheldon E. Krust and yet he is trying to hold it in and not lose his cool, then Lincoln speaks. "Then you tried to get better jobs, and then failed so many times and then used the skills you have learned and managed during your training, and we found out about that from the many places you used to work for." He then has a list and then he explains.

"You worked at dominos and tried to make the manager look bad, but you didn't think the cameras would catch you. You tried to do the same at Dairy Queen by making the number one employee fail and the manger caught you red handed, and then we have... You're previous work at White Castle and you tried to frame the manager for not maintaining the cleanliness of the place, and you were caught when the health inspector showed up. That sound about right, Eugene?"

Sheldon E. Krust is trying to keep his cool, but hearing about the places he used to work and how he failed to undercut the ranks is making his blood boil, and he doesn't even know that Velvet has been hiding and recording everything for everyone to see, live.

The man then tries to speak. "People, I can assure you that those allegations are not true, I am not that kind of man. All of those are just simple lies and nothing more, I am not the man who would undercut..." He then sees something that is the turning point of this.

Blitzo arrives, and with the stuff he bought from the Mercado. "Hey gang, so I got what I needed and this'll help with the restaurant and some stuff I have planned to make, a new dish item. Hey, who the fuck is this turd?"

Sheldon E. Krust then asks. "Sir, where on earth did you get that?"

Blitzo then speaks. "The Casagrandes Mercado? I mean, I go there to get what I need and they're other shipments are linked with the Rose Shipping industry and I always get the best supplies before they are even on shelf, better fresh than sorry!" They chuckle at that joke.

Octavia doesn't. "What does that mean? I don't get it."

Sheldon E. Krust then snaps. "Sir, you must not buy from those people! They have no standards are nothing more than pathetic and wretched freaks who run the worst business in all of this stupid ass city! You must throw them away or ask for a refund and spend the money here! I demand it, I will not have anyone buy from the place and I am still trying to get those other neighborhood folks to come and..." He then sees everyone else has their cellphones. "No wait..."

They all call out. "And post!"

Stolas then gets a call and then he answers it and he grins and then he looks to the man. "You're phone will be ringing, in five. Four. Three. Two, and one." Then the man's phone rings. "Nailed it."

Sheldon E. Krust answers it. "Yes, yes what is it?" He then looks surprised. "Wait, what?! What do you mean they have been bought?!" He then looks confused. "By a wealthy and above the line business! Wait, what the heck?!" He then looks scared. "Oh, those videos? Oh, they are ummm... Well, I was just doing a promo and... Wait, what do you man I'm fired! You can't do that to me, I will own the company and you and... Wait, what?!" Then the phone is hung up.

Stolas snickers. "And that is how I win in a game of chess, well live action and in business chess, which is also a game on Monopoly."

Sheldon E. Krust is enraged. "You did this?! You ruined me!" Then they hear sirens and the cops surround the place. "What?!"

Then the chief of police arrives. "Finally, the mayor has given us clearance to make the arrest. You're actions have been recorded via surveillance and it is all illegal and your cousin, and he is not gonna bail you out anymore. We have the clearance and all the proof." Then a drone flies near the cops and shows the footage of all the stuff this man has done, and it hacked into the security system and found the deleted stuff.

Sheldon E. Krust then makes a run for it, and before the cops can shoot, Loona throws her scythe and it hits the man to his shoulder and then the scythe has a chain. "Get over here!" She pulls hard and then Stolas, Stella and Octavia use their skills and powers and Sheldon E. Krust is petrified, from below the neck.

Stella then explains. "We didn't fully petrify him, so you can chisel him out of this predicament." the cops are surprised and they all head over and take this man away.

"You will not win! You fools! Do you know who I am?!" He is then tossed into the back of the armoured van and then it drives off and then the people of the High n' Buy all come out and they remove the wrist bands and cheer at what the others have done, and they take a bow.

Octavia then asks. "So, family time?"

Stolas and Stella chuckle. "Family time." They then head off to explore the rest of the city, with the Silva Hound and of course Ronnie Anne and Sid along for the ride, and Sid controls her drone to come and follow them as well, the plan worked and Great Lakes City is freed.

Lincoln then thinks about what had happened. 'If I am not mistaken, there has to be a sinner who knew Sheldon E. Krust. We need to look deeper into this and find out more, because a man like him, doesn't deserve to live.'

"To be continued in the next chapter folk!"
