Aftermath from what happened the other day, which is now big on the news, and a visit to the place once more, since Hermann offered them to come by and visit his bar in Chicago. Enjoy reading this newly posted chapter folks!

Helluva Loud Adventures.
"After the Fire from before."

(April 12, Royal Woods Middle School. Royal Woods, Michigan.)

Lincoln enters the school and he sees the students all greeting him, and he can tell that this has something to do with what went down the other day. 'Well, this was all expected, and surely Lunes is going through the same thing.'

Then he sees Jordan head over. "Hey Linc, everyone is still talking about what you guys did the other day when you helped out the Chicago Fire Department, but not just any ordinary Chicago Fire Department, the famous department that used to be called, Firehouse 51, and those guys have been a talk for a long time, and it is a big thing."

Lincoln is kinda confused and surprised. "Okay then, I didn't see that coming. We were just doing our part and helping out, since they needed some support and backup involving a large fire, and apparently that fire wasn't an electrical accident, the whole thing was Arson."

Jordan is surprised to hear this. "Wait, what? But, how? I thought it was an electrical fire by accident."

"Same, we thought so too" replied Lincoln. "But we stayed around a little longer, and then the firefighters came out and found the source, that someone has rigged the place to be on fire, and the guy who did that was the same guy Lunes and I were trying to save, the guy who had the briefcase of cash. He didn't want anyone to come for him, and he knew that someone would want the money back."

"The guy was taken down at Chicago Med after he tried to hold one of the doctor's hostage, and we didn't get involved with that because Chicago P.D had it handled. We didn't think the whole thing was some crazy attempt to not pay his debts, but that guy is gonna be locked up for a long time, and thankfully nobody got seriously hurt from the fire."

Jordan is truly surprised to hear this, then she sees the others are coming. "And here come the rest."

Lincoln sees his friends and he can tell that they have a ton of questions to ask him about what went down the other day, and this is gonna be one helluva school day for him. 'I'm pretty sure Luna is facing the same thing too.'

(Blitz-O's Diner.)

The lunch rush is over, and the place is getting cleaned up and then Blitz checks the time. "Well, not closing time yet, and we still got the fucking dinner rush to deal with, and I think we're set to go and check out that bar which the old timer told me the other day."

Verosika goes over, and she already finished with cleaning the dishes. "Right, the whole thing from the other day after you guys went and saved some folks from the fire and helped out the local fire department there, right? What's the name of the bar?"

Blitz tries to recall. "Hmmm, I kinda forgot. But Moxx knows, well he remembers. We can go there later, since it opens around 4:30pm, and we got time before the dinner rush at 6. We're also inviting some other folks, but I don't know if Husk would wanna tag along."

Verosika then thinks about this and then she asks. "Blitz, what do we usually know about, Husk?"

Blitz then recalls. "Well, he's not nice, well he never is nice to anyone. He doesn't like people, most of the times, well he legit doesn't like anyone. He's a heavy drinker, and he is lured by alcohol, and he is not the friendliest guy to be around, and he is all about card games and other bets to win it against all odds."

Blitz then realizes what Verosika means. "Oh, right. Yeah, good point. So, just the rest of us, and Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb?" But then he sees Verosika cross her arms, and so he recalls about them. "Huh, Nevermind. They might not make things into a good thing if they tag along."

Verosika sighs and she nods. "Exactly Blitz, think about those who are coming along and what might happen if they do get involved. We don't wanna get into trouble." They then continue to clean the place, and Blitz needs to think of who else would wanna come along and not be troublesome, I mean this is a bar owned by a fireman.

(Outside of Royal Woods.)

Another battle going down, and it is between Lady Ace and Sir Pentious, and he has returned with a large bomber plane, and he is trying to attack the base known as Royal-Hela, and all anti=air defenses are on high alert and letting loose the led, and also deploying a powerful shield to defend the place.

Lady Ace spins around, evading some attacks from above and below, and she uses her energy bolts to slice off the snake tentacles from the underside of this monstrous aircraft, and she sees the Bombay doors will open soon.

Lady Ace then evades the Egg planes, with Egg Bois piloting and they chase her down, but Lady Ace is faster, and she manages to destroy several who are chasing her, and then she whistles to the ray gun and it shoots, but she ducks and the blast hits the Egg Bois. "Made ya look!"

Lad Ace then flies to where the Bombay doors are, and she stays flying nearby while avoiding all other attacks, and then she contacts Tannins below. "Could use a diversion here, I will deal with whatever bombs are in this thing."

Tannins. "Confirmed. Sending in our new aircraft teams."

Then some fast aircraft fly by, and they occupy the enemies weapons. The aircraft are Vertigo Bombers and they head up and they do some damage at the roof of this monster aircraft, and then some Cobra strike craft attack the sides, while Basilisk Warships engage the front and back, and this annoys Sir Pentious.

"Pests, pests everywhere! Well, let's see if you can find a new place to land!" Sir Pentious laughs evilly, and he pushes the button that triggers the bomb drop, because he is right above the base of Tannins and Athena. He laughs evilly, as his aircraft opens the bomb doors.

But before the bombs can drop, Lady Ace blasts the bombs, and the whole thing blows up into a fiery inferno, and all aircraft escape this scenario, Lady Ace is knocked off course, but she is caught by robotic tentacles and she sees they belong to Tannins, and she is flying with a jet pack. "You are welcome."

They both see the explosion, and the portal opens and Sir Pentious flees. "Not today." Tannins fires her dart gun, and the tracker is attached and the portal closes. "Yes, the tracker is attached and we can find out where Sir Pentious is based at, and then put a stop to him."

Lady Ace sighs in relief. "Thank goodness for that, everything will truly be Ace-Okay with that guy not around to cause any trouble again."

(Somewhere in Chicago.)

Head to this bar, called "Molly's" previously known as Walcott Street Pub or The Bombardier Lounge. This bar is owned and managed by Christopher Hermann, Mouch and Trudy Platt, and previously by Otis, Gabby Dawson and Leslie Shay. It is often a place to hang out, drink some beers, party or celebrate by the crew from Firehouse 51, other firefighters, officials from the CPD and Medics.

This place is located in Bucktown neighborhood, in Chicago Illinois.

The front doors open, and Hermann sees who are coming in, and he smiles. "Hey, you folks made it and brought some extra company here too."

The ones coming in are: Loona, Blitz, Luna, Sam Sharp, Moxxie, Millie, Lincoln, Jordan, Velvet, Verosika Mayday and Tannins and Athena.

They are not in their human form, and then Loona speaks. "We came just as you offered us sir, and this place sure looks friendly." they see some of the members from the Firehouse are here, and even Chief Boden and Voight from CPD.

They take their seats, and Hermann serves them some drinks, but he serves something not alcoholic for Jordan and Lincoln, and they also serve some decent food here as well. Blitz then speaks with Hermann. "This place sure is a good looking bar, she must have some history huh?"

Hermann smiles. "She's been through a lot, and I thank my three other pals who used to be here, and aren't anymore. But, they did help out and this bar is still standing, heck she survived an incident when she almost caught on fire."

Blitz smirks. "This bar is one strong big girl."

Mouch smirks. "No kidding." He then toasts with Blitz.

Then Hermann asks. "Hey, I heard that you own this restaurant in Royal Woods, right?"

Blitz drinks his beer, and he nods. "Yeah, why?"

"Well, I was wondering..." Hermann then asks. "Have you ever wondered if there is any chance for a Molly's bar to open up in your town? I mean, Molly's is a family and neighborhood friendly place, and it stands by that rule."

Mouch sighs. "Oh boy, here we go with his ideas."

Blitz on the other hand smiles. "Hmmm, go on. I'm listening." Verosika hears this, and she can tell that things are gonna change again in Royal Woods, Michigan.

Luna and Sam are both talking to each other about what went down today, and Loona hears this that Luna has become the talk of the school after what went down the other day, then Loona sees Lincoln, Jordan and Tannins talking to one of the fireman named, Cruz and his invention of the Slammigan, and that it might be useful for the Royal Woods fire department.

Then Voight sits at the same table as Loona. "Heard about what you and the others did the other day, and I gotta say that you guys did a good job."

Loona nods and she drinks her beer. "Thanks sarge, we did what we had to, and my son was the one who reasoned with us to go and help support the scene."

Voight nods. "Yeah, that kid has some guts, and some talent. He knows how to lead, and the other reason why I am here. I wanna talk to you, about something we could use some help with. We're dealing with a murder investigation, and the clues to finding this bastard is not turning out easy, we could use some assistance with this. You think you can talk to the others about providing some help."

Loona is surprised to hear this, and then she thinks about this. "That is a fucking tall order dude, but I'll see what I can do."

Voight nods. "Thanks, you know how to call me, Ms. Silva Hound." The man then takes his leave, and this has Loona puzzled, they need to figure this out, this doesn't seem like the first time they helped with law enforcement.

"To be continued in the next chapter folks!"
A/N: Looks like what went down the other day is something folks will not stop talking about anytime soon, and a nice trip to Molly's, and also something else to deal with. I hope that you all enjoyed reading this newly posted chapter folks!
