Helluva Loud Adventures.
"Reactions, and Rocket plans."
(January 11. Lucifer's Palace, Hell.)
The hallway is empty, and the meeting room is where this is going down, and right now we see Lucifer and Lilith are reading the letter and they remain silent, the ones with them are Charlie, Vaggie, Lori and Leni and they are concerned about how they will feel about this.
Charlie. 'I hope this works, this is something my mom and dad have never encountered, even from me. They have been trying to be supportive to me long ago, and have grown to be more supportive after the hotel success and the day we adopted Lori and Leni.'
Vaggie. 'Lucifer and Lilith have been changed, different and have shown that they aren't heartless demons, and have shown signs of redemption in their own way. If this shit doesn't work, then I don't know what the fuck else is going to happen.'
Lori. 'This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for me and I just wanna know if they are alright with this. But, if they don't support it, then that's their fault and I can do this, myself! I hope this works.'
Leni. 'I really hope they are understanding, because this is something Lori wants to do, but then again... Our grandparents are very protective over us, after the many times that we have been kidnapped.'
Lilith then steps away from her husband and she sighs, and then she looks to the others. "So, Lori darling. You wish to go to an educational college, for golf?"
Lori then explains. "Alright, so there is mostly golf there, but the one thing it still has is a proper education system and one about business and management, and I have always wanted to be a boss or CEO of some big corporate place, this is a chance for me to see what my future can be, under my own control. I wanna go there, and be part of what I never thought would be a dream come true."
"They all accept me, because I have changed and become someone else better, and away from the past of who I once was. They are also impressed by my skills in golf and what I could do. I just, I really want this. My mom's and Leni are alright with me going, I just wanna know what you guys think and..." they hear crying. "Wait, Grandpa?"
They see Lucifer puts the letter down, and he still has his smile, but he is also in tears. "What? I'm not crying..."
"Oh, dad." Charlie goes over and hugs him, and then Leni joins in. Lori is baffled to see Lucifer like this, even Vaggie, then Lilith explains to them.
"Those words, was enough to make him have a true heart, and also melt down with sorrow and happiness. I think he likes the idea, and I too approve of this, Lori. This is after all a once in a lifetime opportunity and I know that you can handle it, and become someone better, with a bright and better future."
They then depart from the hug, and Lucifer goes over towards Lori, and places his hand on her shoulder. "Lori, my dear granddaughter, you have my full support in this special look into the future of yours. Education is needed, and a true and important thing. I am proud of you going for this, and I look forward to whatever success you will have there."
Lori is happy to hear this. "Thank you! Thank you so much for understanding, grandpa" she then hugs her grandfather, and this makes them all happy, this makes Lucifer happy and proud as well, but then he departs from the hug and then he asks something.
"Just, one thing I need to ask..."
They depart from the hug and Lori is confused. "And what might that be?" the others also want to know.
Lilith then stands next to her husband, and then Lucifer speaks. "We wish to come with you and see the tour of the place, and also try some golf there. I mean, mini golf in Royal Woods is nice, but I wish to expand my game time and spend time with you there, at a professional college golf course."
Lori and the others remain silent, they didn't see this shit coming.
(Great Lakes City.)
We are back, and at the Park again as CJ is ready to launch his new rocket, and there are two of them. One for the test flight, and the other for the science fair later.
The Rocket: Kinda looks like the one used to launch the Apollo 11 back then, but is 6 feet tall and with yellow, blue color schemes and a pirate flag logo on the sides. The name "CJ to space" onto one side, and it looks like it was made from some random metallic stuff, and the fuel is already inside, along with the parachute, and some cameras attached.
Tannins then hands CJ the controls. "No leaks, no damages and the paint is dried. You are ready for launch."
Athena is on the roof of the apartment building. "Wind is not so strong, and no signs of anything aerial to ruin this. We're clear!"
CJ nods. "Then let's light this candle. Ignition in five... Four... Three... Two, and one! Blast off!"
CJ pushes the button, and the rocket unleashes some flames, and then it slowly makes its way up, but then it ignites to full power and rockets upwards with great speed. Hector is impressed. "Looks like those cleaning liquids helped, and the small hints of soda and corn starch."
Rosa is also there, and she is using her video camera to record this, and same with Carlota, they will know that Carlos and Frida will wanna see this when they get back home. They will be proud of CJ.
They all look up, and watch as the rocket is now high in the sky, Lincoln uses his binoculars and so do the others, then Athena gives the word. "She is breaking the gravity field, and...She's in the stratosphere! She is inbound for orbit, and...She's there!"
CJ looks to the controls screen and he sees, the rocket they made is now in space, and he smiles. "It worked, my rocket is in space."
Tannins nods. "Now, for the other addition to this small creation." CJ nods, and he pushes a button, and manual control.
The rocket turns on the small fans attached, and they have some small fire bursts, and it flies around the atmosphere and passes by one of the FutureTech Athena Satellite's.
They all seethe rocket hovering and flying around, and all while checking the fuel it has and the power. The fuel is soda, with crushed Mentos, and the power are three potatoes inside, mashed potatoes. They are all amazed, the plan worked and CJ's rocket doesn't just launch into space, but fly around there too.
Hector speaks. "CJ, if you're father comes back from his trip to the New York museum, then he will be proud of you. You are the first ever Casagrande to ever send something into space!"
"And he will be the very first" replied Tannins. "This is a success and will be a win for him at his school later. Seems best we let this thing down, the fuel will run low soon. You know the drill Mr. Casagrande."
CJ nods, and he controls the rocket to return to earth, but nice and steady. CJ is excited and he looks forward to this, but Tannins seems happy for him. 'Reminds me of myself, long ago when Athena aided me with a science space project, but still... If CJ cannot win, then I will allow him to come along, to space tomorrow. Before I am not allowed, due to space systems maintenance at the base.'
While this happens, a portal opens and Lincoln and Luna see Arturo, Maria, Ronnie Anne and Bobby come through, and then Stolas and they see the familia head back home. Lincoln then asks. "Stolas, what the heck happened?"
Stolas sighs and he explains. "So, I brought them to Peru to say their last words to Beto before they change his mental thoughts into that of his natural alpaca self, but then Maria lost it when the alpaca was looking like he wanted her dead."
Luna then asks. "What do you mean by, she lost it?"
Stolas then continues. "Maria attacked the alpaca and so she began to beat him up, then Ronnie Anne got involved and then Bobby, though Roberto didn't seem to be that nimble or strong to land a punch onto the alpaca, and the whole thing scarred the alpaca so much, that he backed up into the corner and was in tears."
"He did try and plead to Arturo, but he just looked down to Beto and said that he is disappointed and never ever wants to see the alpaca again, and he wishes to erase his thoughts, and so we allowed him and the job is done. Beto is now just a simple, not so harmful, and very wild alpaca, who has no memory of Arturo or his family. Honestly, I thought they were going to skin him alive."
Lincoln and Luna didn't see that one coming, they'll talk to Ronnie Anne later, and soon Stolas goes through the portal and back home, to prepare for this Friday, while Lincoln and Luna wait with the others, for the rocket to come down.
They don't even know, that they're cellphones have been put to silent mode, and a text message from hell has arrived, and it means, it's from I.M.P.
Client: Rioichi Orochi.
64 years old, and opened a karate dojo in Cleveland Ohio, but he was once a skilled and dangerous underground martial arts fighter. But he regrets all he has done there, and all he killed when he competed, and so he seeks redemption here, but it was cut short when he was attacked by a gang of criminals, he got stabbed, and tried to use his martial arts skills, but he was too drunk that night. But he knows who the leader of this criminal group is, they had an encounter before.
Target: Brooklyn McCoy.
23 years old and the leader of a biker street punk gang, and was a student to Orochi at his new dojo, but the sensei denied to teach him when he found it that Brooklyn wants to learn so he can be tough and dangerous. He is now a dangerous criminal, and killed the other students of the dojo.
Results: Find the gang, and kill each one, but capture Brooklyn and break his bones, and smash his hands till he cries for mercy and forgiveness, but give none of that to him. Send his body to the wood chipper, and bring the sinner form to the client, he has some punching bag plans for this scumbag.
They'll check it out later, and do it tomorrow.
"To be continued in the next chapter folks!"
A/N: Lori will go to Fairway soon, to tour the place before she can say yes, and it looks like CJ's rocket plan worked! Also, I wanna say thanks to the guest reviewer "Akaza" for the target and client, thanks dude. I hope that you all enjoyed reading this newly posted chapter folks!
