Chapter 2: Searching for clues for Frizzaroli and Oliver

After fighting Mammons shadow Asmodus ran out of the town hall to the front gate as he saw a pair of familiar corpse blue heelers as the two spotted the lust sin as they gasped running up to him "Ozzie! Ozzie!" They yelled "You came back!" Said Bluey "Yay! Ozzie is back!" Said bingo as they were happy to see him as Asmodus kneeled down "Bluey, Bingo good to see you both are safe *Pets them both* what has been going on?" He asked "The witches shop had closed since you have been away" said Bingo sadly as "Bluey looked down "Things have gone bad since you left terrible things" said Bluey "I know little ones" he said worried about what has happened and how its his fault but heard the sound of scream and it sounded like a little boys voice and a little girls voice near the witches shop as he ran over and saw a few skeletons amusing two figures!

One was a little boy of 8 with short messy brown hair with a streak of white dressed in a green and red sweater and blue pants and brown hiking boots and blue eyes. His name was Buddy Claus.

The other was a little blue healer Cherub but has red fur and dressed in a pair of green cute overalls. Her name is Peaches

"HOLD IT! You leave those two alone!" He yelled as he dashed in and used his soul robber to slash and destroy the skletons as Luz and Amity walked out "Asmodus your back!" Yelled Luz "Oh thank goodness you are back" said Amity as she hugged the sin happy to see him as the boy and Cherub got out of there hiding space "Thanks Mister for saving me and Peaches from those mean skeletons" said Buddy "they are really scary and thick but good thing me and Buddy are good at hiding when we want to" said Peaches as Asmodus studied them "Your a human and a Cherub? What are you doing out of the mortal world and heaven?" Asked Asmodus "Actually we came from Christmas Town, my name is Buddy Claus the son of Santa Claus and this is my best freind Peaches, sorry we tend to sneak out of Christmas town to play with Oliver the imp and when Oli didnt come for his usual plays we got locked out by this scary door with a ugly jester face" said Buddy "And then these meany skeletons come to try to attack us but we avoided them by hiding" said Peaches.

That made Asmodus worried not only for his adopted son but for Christmas town and for Sandy Claws if his son and a little Cherub "I'll help you get home you two but first *Looks at Luz and Amity* I need to know if it is true? Has this town truly become booby trapped?" He asked seriously "unfortunately yes its too embarrassing to talk about, we placed this all on ourselves" said Luz regretful as Stringbean churred "Say now you want to buy anything? We got some prime heads and torsos, but it will cost you a arm and a leg?" Said Amity as Ghost purred "Not at the moment, but do you know what is going on? Is Mammon back?" Asked Asmodus "Cletus, Keeie, Collin and Deerie stole one of Bellas spell books and used a spell to bring Mammon back even with the lost of his body parts and innards, but something is odd with those three minus Deerie Cletus, Keenie and Collin have some odd orb like earrings on there ears that they started to behave oddly" said Amity

That made Buddy curious "Deerie? Is she a deer cherub? If it is then its the same Deerie who was banished from Christmas town for being cruel to the kids of the world!" Said Buddy as that made Asmodus curious as Peaches pulled out a Iphone and showed him a picture of Deerie "Is this her?" She asked "That is indeed, we didnt know where she came from and joined CHERUBS group" said Amity as Asmodus got suspicious, Bella is a tough female fox who can whip a person in shape "I feel like Deerie did something to the three but I will tackle that later, I need to see Loopy and Lyle and figure out where Mammon is or at least get his help *to Amity and Luz* can you watch over Buddy and Peaches while I am away?" He asked "But we want to help find Oliver and Krim were worried about them" said Buddy as Ozzie kneeled "I know but its do dangerous but I promise to find them just it will be safe if you stay with Luz and Amity ok?" Asked Ozzie as the boy and Cherub looked at each other and agreed to stay.

Minutes later seeing that Buddy and Peaches were safe he arrived to the front gate of the mansion as he tired to open it as he hummed "The main gate is locked *Walks to Bluey and bingo who were playing with Buddy and Peaches* Do you two know why the gate wont open?" Asked Ozzie "I think got the key to open it but we dont know where he is since this madness had happened" said Bluey as Asmodus pondered he needs to find the zombie clown to get the key to open the main gate to the mansion as he heard loud noises from the sewers.

"That must be where he is, all of you stay near the fountain, same to you and Peaches Buddy" said Ozzie in a parent tone as the two nodded as the sin went over and climbed down as he entered the sewers and saw Buggy running and more of the monsters "Ahh someone help!" He yelled as the skeletons have clubs and guns, stuff Buggy wasnt immune to as Ozzie jumped into action with the soul robber taking them down with the whip and his flames.

"That was close Buggy its ok you can come out" said Ozzie as Buggy came out "Oz is that you? Oh thank goodness I had to hide and ask Alvia and the kids to hide since the monsters started to cause trouble I mean I like a good scare like the next monster but those things bite!" Said Buggy as Asmodus rolled his eyes "Tell me about it, but listen I need you to unlock the main gate to the mansion do you have the key?" He asked "Sure do but ever since it started to get dangerous up there I had to hide it *Pats himself down* hummm did I eat it? Anyway I will make sure to unlock it for yo once I find the key" said Buggy as Asmodus nodded as he got outside the sewer as more monsters appeared as Wally, King candy, Bingo, Bluey, Buddy and Peaches took cover as Asmodus jumped into action using his flames and Soul robber to defeat them.

Once the last skeleton was slayed the sound of the gate clicking open as he turned and saw Buggy with Bingo, Bluey, Buddy and Peaches near the open gate "I got the gate open for you can get into Loopy and Lyles mansion" said Buggy "Wait I remember something, Frizzaroli and Oliver got kidnapped and was taken to the cemetary, but I think Oliver and Krim got away and are hidding" said Bingo as Asmodus eyes got filled with anger "What?! Frizzaroli and Oliver got kidnapped *Growls* that's it no sin!" Exclaimed Asmodus as he rushed off to the cemetery Frizzaroli has been kidnapped along with Oliver and Krim he wont stand for it!.

Ozzie soon made it to the cemetery as he head over to Aleus tombstone as he patted his leg knowing he may need her help, but nothing happened "Strange I guess Aleu isnt here right now, I better look around and check later" he pondered as he continued forward and saw the Monster with Jim Crow on his shoulders and no skeleton hanging man as they saw the sin "Yuel look Asmodus is back" sad Jim as the monster or Yuel saw him "Ah Asmodus you have returend" he said "Good to see you as well Yuel *Sees the ropes* but what happened to your hanging men? And Jim where is your crew?" Asked Asmodus "In town worried for the children with all that is going on the town should at least get some protection and for the skeletons well…" started Jim as he smoked his cigar "They have gone in hiding since Mammon and his monsters appeared in the graveyard, the poor things are not very brave sadly" said Yuel shaking his head "Have you seen Frizzaroli Oliver or Krim? They have gone missing and I fear the worst" said Ozzie "To be honest I haven't seen Frizzaroli or Oliver but Jim managed to find Krim but he is in bad shape" said Yuel as the crow pulled out of his home nest a damaged version of Krim

"Oh no Krim" said Ozzie worried "He is alive just bangled since his memory chips are still ok I think who ever hit him did that to keep him silent Oz" said Jim as Ozzie took the robot "I better hurry and find Olvier and Frizzaroli quickly, I better try to find Aleu again" he said as he hurried to the entrance but when he got there he heard three plus one more familiar voice singing.

Cherub and Deerie: Laa La la la la ala

La la la la!

Law La la la la la law!

La La la la laaa!

Asmodus got in defensive as he recognized those voices

Hail to Ozzie will never win!

When you find our booby traps

They will do you in!

Sure enough he saw a familiar walking bathtub coming through the gates heading to him as Ince they stop the three cherubs called out there names one at a time "Cletus!" "Keenie" "Collin" "And Deerie" they said with evil laughter as Ozzie glared "I should had known especially with a bad influence that is Deerie" said Asmodus as he knew Bella took the three cherubs in to straighten them out and if they took her spellbook they are the reason Mammon is back. "You again? And gaining a new member?" Said Asmodus "Welcome home Ozzie" said Kletus "How was your trip?" Said Keenie with a grin "Are you having fun yet?" Said Collin "Of course he is if he is still alive" said Deerie as Asmodus crossed his arms "Guys something has gone wrong in halloween town…you wouldn't happen to know who caused it do you?" He asked suspiciously.

"Who?" Cletus asked in pretend innocence "You talking to us?" Keenie asked as if pretending to know what's going on "Well, err…err" started Collin "Oh hush now none of us had done anything wrong we promise " said Deerie In a cute tone "Look Cletus, Collin, Keenie its not too late now, return the town to normal and go back to Bella and she may give you a light punishment for bringing Mammon back, and you , you need to report to your superiors for being a bad influence and a bully" said Asmodus sternly "Come on why would we do that?" Asked Cletus as if he was told a bad joke "Right the fun has truly begun!" Said Keenie madly "Yup plus we are on a secret mission to stop you but dont tell anyone though" said Collin to honestly as Cletus smacked him with a mallet as he jumped out of the tub to confront the sin "Later Asmodus" said Deerie with a snicker as the bathtub left the scene as metal fences appeared around the sin leaving him with Cletus.

"Alright Asmodus a=you have to play with me now! *Cue skeletons appearing all over* and my skeletons" he said pulling out a crossbow as Asmodus got in defensive poise as he avoided Cletus attacks as he destroyed several waves of skeletons taking them out with his Soul robber until they stopped popping up "GET THEM!" Said Cletus but there were no more left "Huh? Where did they go?" He said as he yelped seeing Asmodus glare at him as he tried to pretend to be innocent "Sorry! I'll be good from now on! Promise *His fingers are crossed* gotta go!" He said flying off as Asmodus sighed.

"I dont know what is going on but I better tell Bella when I find her" he said returning to the tombstone as he patted his leg again as Aleu appeared as the wolf dog smelled nuzzling on him "Asmodus your back! Halloween town had fallen apart since you left" she said as Ozzie petted her "I know I am very sorry but I will fix things, listen I need your help to find Yuels hanging men" said Ozzie as Aleu nodded "I'm on it follow me" she said flying off as Asmodus followed to find the hanging skeletons and clues on what happened to Oliver and Frizzaroli.
