Helluva Loud Adventures.
(Mayberry House.)
We now see Luan Mayberry, the adopted daughter of Mara Mayberry is doing her homework and she's improving her grades and also taking in tons of extra school work, and not just to show she's improving more of her education, but also…. Well, avoid summer school.
Luan then stops and looks out the window, she recalls the other day when she was helping around the Hazbin Hotel, and then she was approached by the Radio Demon, Alastor and spoke to her about how she's been living and she answered calmly about what she has planned.
Her improvement into education, her look into what she wants to do with her life, and the chances of giving up on comedy, but Alastor spoke words that made her rethink some of her options, and she recalls every last thing he spoke.
"My dear, though it does seem fitting to stray away from a past that made you into someone as maniacal as Velvet, that does not mean giving up one of those traits and comedy is as wonderful as it is part of the world of Entertainment and even I find humor for some things that I find comedic."
"The pranking part, is a seemingly far beyond temptation of what Angel Dust does on several occasions, though what you did seems far worse than anything I have ever heard and is more into the serial killer traits and perhaps could be used for other purposes and not to harm those you cherish."
"But the choices you seek in the future are not mine to bound or carve for you. No that is for you to decide and for you to walk and see through. Because from one entertainer to another, the saying goes as this as what I have told many times."
"The World is a Stage, and the Stage is a World of Entertainment. Wouldn't you agree?"
Luan had a lot to think about from those words, and she knew that the Radio Demon is right, and so she thinks about her options.
'Hmm, well I have many choices to make for myself. I could write scripts and make plays and other events look better than they usually are, like being part of the Drama Club, or become part of the High School Writing Club.'
'But then again, I am good at acting, so maybe a stage performer could fit the bill, and that would still mean that I will be part of the Drama Club, and then become part of the Theater Club, and that would be awesome since Benny is part of it, and also Maggie.'
'But then comes in… Comedy, the last resort and the Radio Demon is right about one thing. I cannot let some part of the past be forgotten, I can retain comedy and be whatever I seek, but the pranking side is something that… Wait, what the heck do I do with that side of me?'
Luan then goes back to finishing some more of her homework, while her mother peeks into the room and sees her daughter hard at work, and she is curious.
'What the fuck did my daughter do the other day at the Hotel? Did the Radio Demon talk to her? Because if so, then I hope it's about her issues with comedy, they both have some shit in common, and one of them is entertainment.'
(The Burnt Bean.)
We now go to the one place where folks could go for some coffee, good company and some peace and quiet, and right now it's closed for the time being for something else, and then someone's fancy car arrives and that someone is Katie Crest.
The woman is the manager of the Country Summer Musical Tour and she intends to make it far more extravagant by recruiting those she deemed worth the time since she saw the Royal Woods spring Music Festival.
'Alright, this is it. Time to put my plan into motion, make it look like that whatever nonsense they got about me is out of the book and then ensure that they stick to the deal and become what I want them to be, and that is to make me famous and rich and I don't care about no stinking sinners.'
'Besides, they did more wrong than I did and I can make them do what I want. They wanna be famous, and I know that it's in their nature, as is mine and they'll do whatever I want. I just can't believe that they know where Michelle Lewis is. Fuck! This might be bad for me, or not.'
She walks through the doors and she sees someone sitting on a chair alone, and that someone is Luna Silva Hound, and by the other tables are her band: Sam, Sully and Mazzy.
By the counter and drinking coffee are Angel Dust, Cherri Bomb and Velvet, oh and Fat Nuggets is there too, and serving them is Amanda Sharp, the owner of the joint and the mother of Sam Sharp. She was informed about this plan.
Katie Crest fails to see this figure in a trench coat and shades also there, and watching her movement and another figure watching her too.
Katie Crest then walks towards Luna, and she sits down. "Hello, Ms. Silva Hound, you know who I am."
Luna scoffs. "Yeah, I know who you are and I know a lot about you and I know what you're here for. I was told that you came to my grandpa's restaurant and was lookin for me, and then spoke to the staff about you wanting to talk to me and the band and also our friends over there."
Cherri Bomb is snickering as she stirs her coffee, Angel Dust is sipping his coffee and hugging his pet pig and Velvet adds some more sugar to her coffee and grins towards the woman.
Katie Crest can tell that something was up and it involves what they planned the other day in hell. "Well, as you know that your friend, Chester has been a really amazing help with some lessons to our band associates, who all seemed to be less cooperative when it came to his style."
"I mean, he is good to handle and he can be quite the man who knows how to cooperate with others, but it seems that the others I recruited don't seem to like Chunk and that's an issue, and I have gotten some others to be part of the tour who are far better than them and equal to Chunk."
"Then he mentioned about the Royal Woods spring music festival and so we went here to see what we could find and we found some talent that would go well, and that would be the band who were on stage. Luna, you and your band showed great potential in performing on stage."
"Same with the sinners, or demons too. They also showed amazing performance when it came to singing, and so I came here to offer all of you a chance to be famous and well-known, and if that stick works, then the rest of the world would wanna see and hear you guys perform like never before."
"I already came up with plans on…."
"No." Luna looks to the woman sternly. "We're not falling for your bullshit."
Katie Crest is shocked, and then she calms down. "Luna, I think you misheard me. I wanna help you accomplish the dream you once had, to be famous and known for your amazing music and talented band. This could be you're…"
"She said no, lady." Angel Dust steps forward with his angry pet pig, Fat Nuggets. "And I'm pretty sure I spoke it so clear that you're fucking ears couldn't have missed it."
"If she didn't get the message, then we got this." Cherri Bomb has a mega horn.
"Maybe she has something in her ears that's the problem!" Velvet grins evilly. "I have something with me that would do the trick and "clean" her ears out, it will be very painful."
Katie Crest is not liking this, then Sam walk up to her. "We're going to deny everything you want, because that's not us and no way to hell are we gonna become pawns in your path to fame and fortune."
"And we know that you wanna make us into some folks we're not, and have us be kept away from the friends and family we love dearly" said Mazzy.
"It's folks like you that make the whole music business look bad and shame the meaning of anything from honest to good management" said Sully.
Luna's eyes glow red. "The offer we make stands, we're not gonna be part of anything shitty that you have planned, and we know you have something diabolical up your hands, such as the one demon you still want, and that would piss off the King of the Underworld."
Katie Crest is now seeing that they know her true intentions. 'Fucking shit!' She then tries to play it cool. "Now, now. Those are not what I want, and as for the other stuff you guys mentioned, I don't know what you're all talking about."
"Clearly you've all been misguided and haven't been given the true meaning of my…"
"Cut the bullshit Crest." The woman in the trench coat and shades goes to her, and it's Michelle Lewis. "I told them everything about you, since you and I go way back with Doug Rockwell, also he said hi and that he's enjoying his life getting skewered in the ass in hell, and that he's having fun being burnt alive."
Katie Crest gets up and looks towards her rival. "Michelle Lewis, I knew some skank like you would be sent to hell, and end up with demons. You're nothing compared to how great I am!"
Michelle scoffs. "Yeah, the crazy dream of you wanting everything, the same god damn dream that made me fall into the same fucked up pit as Doug Rockwell and sure to hell I am not walking down that path, and as you should know, I am no longer missing."
"We spoke to the feds and they think my time in hell is prison time enough, and I am happily serving my sentence through redemption. Because I intend to come back here to earth and make a new life for myself and away from the shitty manager lifestyle."
Katie Crest does not like this. "You no good…." she then looks to Luna. "I don't know what she told you, but they're all lies!"
"Not lies" said Velvet. "Otherwise, I would've known. I am good at knowing liars, and when someone is hiding a secret and it would be a fucking shame if we spoke to the cops about… You're crime."
Cherri Bomb smirks. "Hint: Bus, band and flames." This makes them all smirk.
Katie Crest is shocked to hear this and she backs up. "No… That, you don't have any…"
"We do." Michelle Lewis then shows her an image of five sinners and all five of them are too familiar. "The five band mates who wanted out of your deal, and the same ones you spiked them with drugs: Josh, Chad, Cole, Donny and Tim. These boys are doing well, and are planning to tag team with Queen Lilith on her hell tour."
"They did ask us to make the kill on you" said Luna. This makes Katie Crest nervous. "But, they said to hold that call and let me handle the stick, because the best option to revenge is to have you ruined, and to do as slowly as time passes on."
Katie Crest didn't like this, now she had more issues to deal with and now her past has come back to bite her in the ass. Luna and the others can see, that they have her right where they want her.
Luna then speaks. "Alright Katie Crest, here's the dealio. Stay the fuck away from us and don't think about coming back, and we won't rat out the true nature of your crimes and if you pull the same stunt onto someone as you did with your band, then we'll come for you before the cops do."
Katie Crest didn't like this, but she had no choice. "Fine! I'll lay off of you and the others, but I still have the others who are willing to…"
"Change of plans, lady." Katie Crest sees Chunk and he has his luggage. "Lunes told me to come here, and after what I heard, well… I quit. I am not gonna be made into something I am not, and even though I am giving up the dream of being famous and all that. Not worth giving up what I have, my freedom."
"The contract you made me sign has a loop hole, and allowed me to make my own choice to do as I please and so I quit the gig and staying in Royal Woods, you got no ace player on the axe and you can go and wank off for all I care!"
Katie Crest is now angered by this. "You no good quitting…" But she's confronted by Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb. Katie Crest can see that she has been outgunned, outnumbered and defeated. "Fine! You'll regret this all of you!"
Katie Crest takes her leave from the place and drives off. This makes them all sigh in relief and clap at the whole plan that went well.
Luna looks to Chunk. "Glad to have you back dude. We don't want anything bad to happen to a friend."
Chunk nods. "Dang right luv, and I sure ain't gonna be part of some dark deeds that Crest has in store, but what the heck are you gonna be doing with her now? She got away."
Luna chuckles. "Oh, we have a plan for her, but that's for next time. After all, we wouldn't wanna make the clients upset."
They know what I.M.P has planned, then Sam looks to her phone. "Guys, time to go and celebrate Brian's B-Day, he may be in hell and all, but that doesn't mean we can't celebrate his 17th birthday."
"Then let's fucking go!" velvet uses her potion and throws it to the ground, a portal opens and she goes on through and so do the others, and so does Sam and her mother. Sam's dad and little brother are already there.
Time to say Happy B-Day to Brian Sharp.
To be continued folks!
