Hodr's now inside of the meeting room, doing nothing as usual. It's been a day since that incident with that rapist that he and Loona had to take down. He didn't expect the man to have learned demonic magic himself, but of Hodr were to believe, that man may have been a warlock of sort. After all, he had seen warlocks before, and none of them were good people. These people were raised to be evil from the start, and the tradition of their morality did not fade at all. They still kept on going, ever after all that they have done. And needless to say, this made Hodr very unnerved by all of this. The fact that a warlock could be this sinister and corrupted is so insane. Hodr does not know if he can get this out of his mind ever again. He can still remember it, the smell, the bodies that he had seen of all the woman he had killed and kept. And the floor...it made Hodr shake to think about what had just occurred...it reminded her of what 'she' had done to him. The forceful pleasure, he feeling of being pinned down to the cold, stony floor, the pain on his back, Hodr does not know what to think of himself right now. But the blood and sticky white liquid on the floor...he remembers being surrounded by it. He can feel his arms beginning to shake at this. But he shook his head, as he then looks up to see what is happening with the other I.M.P Members.
Loona's currently sleeping in her chair, with Blitzø shooting television sets that Moxxie brings him. This made Hodr a little bit weirded out at what he is seeing. Loki appeared, and even he has an expression on his face that shows just how weirded out he is. Like, why in the world is he shooting his own TVs? Doesn't that cost a lot of money in destroying them, and that is if they need to pay in Hell. Well, Blitzø always seem to say that he buys stuff, so it is obvious that they still need to pay, although Hodr is very sure they you can also steal without trouble. But Hodr doesn't want to steal, and just simply pays. Just like any normal person would do. Loki now has his deer antlers and bull horns, as well as ram horns, but has Raven wings on his back, and deer hooves in the place of his deer, while he still looks taller then Hodr. He also kept his imp-like tail, as Loki then spoke out.
"Okay, now this just takes the T in weirdness. Like, why does Blitzø even need to shoot his one Television sets for some shit that he does not like? Okay, you know what, fuck that question. I think the better question is why does he have spare TVs in the first place when they all are able to work?! Is there a Television that he won't shoot out and destroy all by himself?!"
Hodr looks at Loki and shrugged his shoulders, as even he himself is clearly unsure what to think of this.
"I don't know about this myself, Loki. Even this is all strange for me. And even I do not have a clue as to what I am seeing, nor why Blitzø has this many Televisions."
Loki looks at Hodr with a look of annoyance in his face, before he than pinched his knows, before he then spoke out.
"I am not beginning to question what else he spends his money on and wasting it for. Whatever it is that is inside of his mind, it sure as hell ain't normal. At least Moxxie is a bit more smarter then that, especially with how he spends his money. I almost feel bad that he needs to bring this TV over to Blitzø, so that he can constantly shoot it and waste a bunch of fucking property."
Hodr said nothing, as he turned to Blitzø, as Moxxie switches channels on Blitzø's orders.
"No...not that shit."
Moxxie changed, and Blitzø looked cringed at the sight of the scene before him, before he then spoke out.
"Nah, too fucking horny! Try another one."
Hodr watched, as Moxxie changed to a different channel, and this is one that Hodr truly took notice in. When Moxxie sat fiend to the next channel, the camera shows what seems to be an area that has clouds as the ground, and a golden gate in front of the camera. Hodr was frozen at this, as he feels something...odd...about this area that the camera is showing. What is it? The gate then opened, and a light shined, as the light faded, and revealed an area that has blue and golden, with clouds as the ground still. One of the buildings is a blue heart, the other resembles what seems to be a harp of some sort, with a golden staircase ascending upwards.
And then, someone came into the view of the camera. Coming from the view of the camera, is a humanoid being, resembling an infant, with light ginger hair, purple eyes, a pink nose, and a red circular blush on his face. He wears what seems to be a yellow short-sleeved shirt, red overalls that reaches above his ankles with white buttons, purple shoes, and has wings and a...halo?
Hodr's eyes widened, as he began to think on what it is. Is that what thinks it is? Then, the winged baby spoke out.
"Well, howdy! I'm Cletus! Welcome to Heaven! Guess you did somethin' good to get here, and good people deserve to give loved ones special blessin's!"
Hodr's eyes widened in shock! This is heaven? Then that means that the winged baby is an Angel! And then, what seems to be a jingle of some sort, one that Hodr thinks is familiar, due to hearing the I.M.P jingle. As the song began to sing.
Unknown 1: Does it make you want to cry?
Unknown 2: When your loved one has to die?
Cletus: Does it hurt you through and through?
The scene changes into 3 different deaths that are showing. The first is a male pilot jumping off an airplane, which must have been damaged in a fight, and he pulls the ripcord to release his parachute, only for it to snap off instead. With a horrified expression on his face, he splats onto a rock while a censoring pink-colored cloud bubble reads 'OWIE,' with the word in purple. The other scene cuts to a man with a red beanie and a purple jacket, and is in front of a tunnel, before a red train with a happy cartoonish face appeared and slammed into him, a light purple censor cloud with the words, 'Oh No!', appearing. Then a man with a green stained t-shirt appear, holding a shotgun to his right eye, and it fired, with a yellow censor cloud and the purple colored word, 'OOPSIE,' appeared. The scene then switches to a man that is being hanged by a noose, seemingly a suicide of sorts, something Hodr knows all too well, as the man's face turned blue, and a cartoonish drawing of Cletus appearances, a sad face and tear leaked down one of his eyes, as the singing continued.
All: When your face is turnin' bluuuuue?
Then, the scene changes to Heaven once again, as then, another Angel appeared, a sheep with purple eyes, halo, and wings, cyan colored shirt, and has has his bare legs showing, with white dots on his stomach, which Hodr does not know what it is. This is one of Cletus' allies, Collin.
Collin: Well, luckily for you...~
Then, another Angel appeared, also a sheep, but is yellow colored with a yellow dress, a pink bow tie, and has white gloves hands, with the hands resembling that of a humans, as oppose to Collin's hands being hooves, and has red irises with purple pupils. She has yellow wings, but kept the normal-colored halo. This is Kennie, another ally of Cletus.
Keenie: There's somethin' we can do!
Cletus appears, as he went in between his 2 buddies, and he sung out.
All: We can help keep them alive...
They then puts each other's arms around their shoulders, with Cletus in the middle, Collin on the right and Kennie on the left, as all 3 sung out.
All: So you can watch them thrive!
Then, an orange word, all uppercase and looking grand and royal, has the acronym, C.H.E.R.U.B, onto it, as they sung out.
All: 'Cause here at C.H.E... R.U.B.!
The scene changes to show the angel's single rescue. Cletus rescues a woman from a pack of wild animals. Keenie pushes a scared Collin in front of them, as he holds a plank of wood with a nail in it, supposed to get him to fight against the wild animals.
Collin: We'll save your honeybun from dying violently!
The C.H.E.R.U.B. logo appears again, as they swung out together.
All: 'Cause here at C.H.E... R.U.B.!
Cletus is shown waving a dismissive hand at a person handing him a handful of dollar bills, as he wants not a sort of dollar bill from his hand.
Keenie: No, we never even ask a fee!
Both Collin and Kennie, the 2 sheep angels then gave each other a hug in a yellow heart background, although Hodr does not know if it is a hug of friendship, or a hug of romance. Then, the Earth is shown, as innocent-looking hearts appeared around the spinning planet.
Collin: Because good people spread the love!
Kennie: And we're here for all above!
Collin is then shown what must be his office, doing paperwork of some sort on his table, as he looked tired and stressed, but determined to finish it.
Collin: We do the paperwork for you!
In the next scene, Keenie is shine to be lifting a boulder off of a woman trapped under and flattened by a boulder, who gives her a thumbs up.
Kennie: And the heavy liftin', too!
Then, the scene changed, showing The three Cherubs comfort a horribly wounded man after a car crash. he is bleeding profusely from a neck wound. It must have been a very severe car crash for the poor guy.
Cletus: So sit right back-
Then, the three Cherubs appear back on the screen and all 3 of them sang in harmony, as they do a pose some more.
All: And let us bless a soul~ for you! Oh, we... are the C.H.E.R.U.B!
Then, Blitzø fired his gun at the T.V, as he destoryed it, and Hodr looks in shock, with Millie spoke out.
"Nice one, B!"
Blitzø has a grin of appreciation on his face, and he twirled his gun, as he then spoke out to Moxxie.
"Gimme another, Mox."
Moxxie, although nervous, obliged, as he then ran into a room to find another one. Hodr, in his silence, he was shocked at what he is seeing. He then spoke out.
"That, that commercial...were those, actual Cherubs?"
Blitzø nodded his head, and he looks at Hodr with an expression of pure hatred and outright loathing, most likely towards the Cherubs that he had seen.
"Ya got that right, big man! What you had seen were fucking Cherubs, as well as the god-fuckin'-damn copycats you had seen. Just as we go out and screw over the lives of human to kill them, they go all over, the C.H.E.R.U.B shit...they go around and save the fucking dumbasses on Earth!"
Hodr was stunned, as he then spoke out.
"Save...humans? But...I never heard of anyone being saved by them before! I heard of the the people you killed on the news, which you told me, but...saving them..."
Blitzø then shrugged, as he then spoke out.
"Well...then maybe you are just one of those lucky guys that never knew of their fucking accomplishments, who cares! Moxxie, quit taking so fucking long!"
As Moxxie was rushing, Hodr went down and looked at his feet, and a feeling of confusion appeared. Thousands, perhaps millions of thoughts appeared inside of his mind, especially on how he thinks of what he had seen. But there is one question that stood out onto his mind, that he desperately wants to know. Loki then appeared beside of Hodr, a look of concern present onto his face, as he then spoke to him.
"Hodr...what's wrong?"
Hodr was silent, before he spoke out to Loki, so that only he can hear him.
"Why? The Cherubs...they...they were here to save people, make sure people remain happy and alive. I...I prayed to them, prayed to heaven...to god...for what must have been a decade. And yet...they...they never came to me, even when it involved her. Why did they not answer my prayers? Mother...she said that the angels would protect us. Was...was she wrong? Were the angels never truly here to protect me?"
Loki did not answer. Hodr felt so confused and conflicted. He wanted to find a reason for the Cherubs not answering his call. But...what excuse is there. Then, Moxxie came back, an Old-Fashioned TV in his hand, similar to the one that Blitzø shot, as he turned it on once he placed it down. On the screen, the 666 news logo appeared, but Blitzø did not seem to be in the mood for this, to watch the news, or that he does not hate it enough, as he spoke out.
"Eh, nah. Not feelin' it. Next!"
Moxxie changed the channel, and this time, it is of a different type of channel, seemingly a cartoon, one that Hodr got really weirded out by, but recognized. It was none other then Betty Boop, he watched that show when he was a little kid, and he always liked that show. And it appears that Hell decided to ruin her. She is now dressing like a demon with horns on her head, a pitchfork above her head in her hands, and she dances erotically, with her breasts now large and are bouncing at the movement. Hodr looked at this, he has a flat look on his face, clearly unamused, and he whispered at the sight.
"Great. Now my view on Betty Boop has been completely ruined. Thanks for doing that to me, Blitzø."
Blitzø, however, did not want to see this one, clearly not wanting it, as he then shouted out.
"Uh-huh. Keep going, keep goin', keep goin'..."
Moxxie, even more nervous then before, switched channels again, and this time, it was of an Imp. And Hodr recognized the Imp. It is the one back in Loo Loo Land, the one that had been pushing the torches. He never got his name, but now...it seems he will get it.
"I say, I say, are you lookin' to get work making crazy contraptions and goofy gadgets?"
The Imp then whacks his cane on the wall at either side of him, producing the graphics for 'Crazy Contraptions' and 'Goofy Gadgets.'
"Well, call me at Wacky Wally Wackford's Wacky Idea Factory, where you make the things and I make the money!"
The title of his business appeared, against a similar circular background of classic old cartoons. But the tile panel with the title then falls over forwards, landing with a. Wally does not seem bothered by this.
"where you make the things and I make the money!"
He then makes a pleading look on his face.
"Please! I'm very desperate!"
"Bingo!"
Blitzø, finding the right one to shoot, fired his gun, and exploded the TV. Millie then spoke out with pride on her voice.
"WOO! You're on a roll, sir!"
Hodr sighed, as he puts his hands in his pocket. The old feeling of sadness returned, as his thoughts returned to the Cherubs. Hodr closed his eyes, as he thought about it in his head. Loona continued to snore at the table, not hearing the loud gunshot that Blitzø is making. She has one foot up on the table that twitches in her sleep, and she is drooling in her sleep. A plastic cup with her name written on it and filled with water sits on the table next to her foot. Hodr looks, and even he thinks that it looks cute. But the feeling didn't last...because then, a shaking was felt, the cup dropped when she awoke, and she looked around, looking a little uneasy.
"Guys... do you feel that?"
Everyone looked around, and they can feel the shaking as well, and Blitzø even spoke out, a look of panic in his eyes.
"Oh, shit! Is that a hellshake?"
Moxxie looked confused, as he then spoke out.
"Is that possible?"
Millie, believing that Moxxie is beginning to panic, spoke out to him.
"Alright! Don't panic, Moxxie!"
Moxxie jumped at Millie'a loud tone, as she then hugs him to calm him. But Moxxie, now panicking by the shaking, spoke out.
"I'm not, because hellquakes don't happen."
But Loona, in a panicking face, grabs ahold of Moxxie, and began to shake him roughly.
"Don't get hysterical, fatty!"
Loona slaps Moxxie in the face, sending him flying against the wall and slightly dazing him. Hodr almost fell, but Loona, seeing him, grabs his hands and his arms to keep him from falling, as she steadied him. But Hodr could sense that it is not a hellquake of some sort. No. It is a person, and he is coming down. And then, before the group even knew it, and before Moxxie can get out of the way, the wall side wall suddenly caved in, caused by a wrecking ball made of black tubes, as part of the wall crumbles on top of Moxxie, crushing him. As the dust clears, the wrecking ball untangles into multiple robotic tentacles and a supervillain-esque demon uses two of them to hoist himself into the room through the hole, covering himself with his cape. Loona growls while holding onto Hodr, while Hodr looks at the strange demon that appeared.
"Do not be afraid!"
The demon spoke out, and Hodr recognized the voice, as his eyes perked up. Blitzø, not really concerned, spoke out.
"Please tell me you got that insurance thing!"
The man smiled, as black tentacles appeared form his back, and Hodr knows who this tentacles belongs to. Luckily, Hodr held his hood on, so the man does not seem him. Millie held an axe in her hand, as she then spoke out.
"Who are you, and what do you want?"
The demon smiled, as he then unveiled his cape, revealing his appearance. The demon was red in color worn green eyes, and dark green spirals, with a black top hat present, a long nose and a curved long mustache. His outfit consists of a black jumpsuit with a bright green neck piece, along with a bright green curve shape on his chest and stomach that reaches the groin, resembling that of a question mark. He also wears red gloves on his hands, and bright green boots. He then spoke out in a sing-song voice.
"I am Loopty Goopty! Dastardly inventor of all things loopy and loopiiiiiish!"
Hodr narrows his eyes, and Loona lets go of him, her right hand on her hip, phone in left hand, and she spoke out with a bored expression on her face.
"Coulda just used the door, dude. Doesn't need to be this whole thing."
But Loopty suddenly invaded her personal space, as he then shouts out.
"I am eccentric and must therefore do eccentric shit!"
He then does a wavy dance, and as he did, Blitzø suddenly sniffed his ass, before he recoiled in disgust.
"Ugh! This old fuck reeks of the living world. Did you just die?"
Loopty turns to Blitzø, as he spoke back.
"YEEEEES! Moments ago, in fact! Which is what brought me HEEEERE!"
Loona is shown to be back at her phone, and Hodr is getting something from behind his back, as Loona spoke out.
"Just sayin'... the front door would've gotten you here fine."
But Loopty invaded her space again, a smile on her face, as he said something that would be insulting to her.
"Shut up, dear fur-"
But before Loopty could realize what is about to happen, a red, silver, and metallic object swung at Loopy and hits him in the jaw, sending him flying to the whiteboard and destroying it. Everyone got shocked by this, and saw Hodr, holding a crowbar in his hand, and he frowned, almost like he is annoyed with something. Blitzø shouted out to him.
"Goddamnit, you dumbass! Now I need to get a new whiteboard, and where did you even get that crowbar?!"
Bur Hodr said nothing, as he then walks forward, and looks at Loopty, as he spoke speaking out.
"Who the fuck dares to-"
But as he spoke, Hodr then spoke out.
"Hello, Loopty. Do you remember me?"
Loopty looks up at Hodr, and he sees his face, one of his eyes is uncovered. He then points his finger, as he shouts at Hodr.
"YOOOU! I remember you! You were the poor man we had tried to test our inventions on!"
Hodr looks down at Loopty, before he then spoke out.
"This poor man had broken free from your attempt, and beat you down with a crowbar, in the back of your heads."
Loopty stood up, and snarled with anger, his fist clenched and shouted out.
"YESSSSS! You did, 2 year ago, and because of you, me and Lyle had to be hospitalized for an entire 4 month without hearing the screams of the poor! you made it TORTURRRRE!"
Hodr frowned a little, before he pulled him by the cape, and looks at him, before speaking out.
"Well...let's recreate that seen then...shall we?"
Loopty gulped, and before Loopty could do anything, Hodr throws him into the ground, before putting a foot onto his back, and hitting the back of his head with the crowbar, and it is a pain that he remembers all to well, and even though he has become a sinner demon, the pain is as bad as ever. Loona takes a video of this happening, wanting to remember this moment that Loopy insulted her, so he can insult him, as Loopty spoke out.
"NOO! Stop, my good sir, please have MERCYYY!"
But Hodr showed none, as he continues to slam the crowbar, infusing it with demonic energy to make the pain worse. But Blitzø stopped him by grabbing onto the crowbar, and he then spoke out.
"Okay, that's enough of that, Hodr. That was funny, though!"
Hodr shrugged, as he spoke out.
"You just ruined my fun, Blitzø."
Hodr walks away, as Loona looks at Hodr, and a small smile appeared onto her face.
"Gotta tell ya, Dumbass...that was fucking sick what you did there. Also hot."
Hodr looked a little embarrassed, and Loona, realizing what she said, spoke out, and turns her head away, her cheeks red in embarrassment, but her tail wagged.
"Not, not fucking hot! Just, forget about it?! Dumbass."
Loopty stood up, and looking at Hodr with fear for a moment, before he then spoke out.
"Anyway...This is the man I'm gonna need you to kiiiill!"
He then held out a picture of a man, that looks like he was such an advanced age, looking old and very bloated. Blitzo takes the photo from him, and looked impressed with something.
"Not even a shit's length of time in Hell and already plotting revenge. I can respect a man with that sort of passion! I'm Blitzo, the "O" is silent."
Loona walks away, as Loopty was confused.
"What O?"
Blitzø, taking that as a complaint, sips onto a drink, as he then spoke out.
"Aww, thank you. Now, you wanna drink tea or something?"
Loopty, being his usual bombastic self, shouts out.
"The TEAAAA?!"
Moxxie's arm appeared out, and Hodr goes up and lifts the debris off of him, and helps him up.
"Ghhh...thanks, Hodr."
Blitzø, however, he wants to know the name of the old guy in his picture.
"Yeah, why are we killin' this guy? I mean, what did he ever do to you?"
Hodr then spoke out.
"Let me guess, it's Lyle Lipton, having been affected by his own machine, as well as Loopy's business partner. And he seems to have gained weight. Always was a fatty."
Loopty shouts out.
"Why don't you shut up, my good-"
But Hodr raised his crowbar, and Loopty shuts up, as he resumes talking.
"As that poor man said, He was… my business partner! You see, I was not always an old man! My partner Lyle and I ran Lyle-Loopty Robotics, a technological empire! Earlier today, we were testing a new machine intended to stop, or reverse, the aging process! It could've saved all three trillionaires! Unfortunately, we neglected to test the machine on the poor, like we usually do. We were too sure of our own genius! But the machine was accidentally set forward! By the time we managed to get out... it was too late! At least... for me!"
Hodr whistled, as he then spoke out to Loopty.
"Got killed by the very invention you made. How karmic."
Normally, Hodr would feel to any bad people, not satisfied. But Loopy and his buddy...he feels no sympathy for what they had nearly done to him, without remorse. Loopy froze at what he said, before he then continued.
"Now, that evil son of a bitch is going to take over the empire WE BUILT TOGETHER! Without me to share it with, he'll make all the goddamn money in the world and become the fourth trillionaire... and get ALL the credit!"
Blitzø, not sounding convinced, some out to him.
"Ehhh, that's not really evil."
But Loopty, looking indignant, shouts back.
"It's evil towards meeee! Now, get your crimson asses up above and send that heartless, no-good son of a bitch to Hell, where he belongs!"
Blitzø, now fearing for what he'll do, spoke out.
"Eh, y- y- y- You do know, Poopty-"
"Loopty!"
The villainous demon said with seething rage, as Hodr snicked behind his hand.
"Pfff...Poopty."
Blitzø then corrects himself, as he then held his hands up, before he then spoke out.
"Of course! Of course... If we do kill him, though, and he ends up down here... y'know, you will be stuck with him. Forever."
Loopty smiled, as he shouted out.
"Oh...trust me..."
Then, a bunch of weapons appeared from his back, which are a pistol, a rifle, a missile launcher, and a circular saw blade.
"I'm counting on it."
Moxxie then spoke out.
"That's kinda hot."
Everyone looked at Moxxie, as if he had said something weird, before Loopty spoke out.
"And if you fail...you are all dead! Now good day, my good sirs!"
He than turns around and flies away in a jet pack. But Hodr, wanting one more for of humor, takes out his spear, and throws it at the jet pack, exploding it, as it seems him down to the ground.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
He crashed to the ground, and an explosion happened, as everyone looked in shock at what Hodr did, who then slightly smiled at this.
"Now that is fun."
Loona also has her phone up, as she then spoke out with a smile on her face.
"Got that one recorded. Gonna save this for some fucking shits and giggles. Fuck yeah, Hodr."
Loki looks at Hodr, impressed, as he then spoke out.
"Now that was badass."
Hodr and the rest of I.M.P are now in the human world once again, with Blitzø having a sock puppet on his tail, as they are inside of a tour bus. Moxxie then took out his binoculars, as he looks to see the mansion of Lyle Lipton, before he then spoke out sarcastically.
"Gee! I wonder whose house this is."
Hodr and the others are outside of the bus, as Hodr became invisible to the other humans, as the tour guide, with orange hair and a goatee, as well as a cap, spoke out to the crowd.
"And to your right is the home of famous inventor, Lyle Lipton!"
The crowed began to take a picture of the house, and Hodr looks at the other Imps, making himself partially invisible, as Blitzø can see him, before he nodded and spoke out.
"Let's do it, gang!"
All three Imps pull out their weapons: Blitzo a flintlock pistol, Moxxie an assault rifle and Millie two sharp swords. The Imps jump over a fence and land in poses, with Hodr simply teleporting to the other side, while unseen, as Millie spoke out.
"Let's kill this rich guy!"
They went to the fence, as the tour guide then spoke out in the same happy tone.
"And here you'll find three tacky stalkers about to attempt a murder! Things like this could happen to famous people all the time!"
The crowd take pictures, but Hodr, not appreciating this, turns to the tour guide and throws a snowball, which make him frozen in ice, making him a statue. Hodr looks with narrowed eyes, as he spoke out.
"Jerk."
Facing to the Imps again, he goes to the window, as they all looked in, and Hodr look to see that had became of Lyle Lipton. And needless to say, he looks like he is in bad shape. Just like in the picture, old and bloated. Moxxie then spoke out.
"Wow...that machine really did a number on him."
Hodr looks, and he spoke out in confusion.
"Wait a minute...why can't Lyle just enter the machine and re-age himself back again? Does it still work, or anything?"
Blitzø then spoke out.
"Ehh, who cares. Just as long as we get the job done, and we kill him.
In his hand, Lyle is holding a picture of money, before he then kissed it, and sadly strone the picture, his saliva stained the picture itself, before he spoke out in such an aged tone.
"Goodbye... my one true love."
He than puts the picture down, before he grabs onto the tube from his IV bag and begins tying it. Hodr recognized the movement of hand movement, for it is a noose, as Hodr had done that. He touched his neck, and Lyle spoke out.
"All the riches of the world can't fill the emptiness I'm feeling now that my shitty old body can't do anything of value."
Blitzø looks almost relived, as he then spoke out.
"Oh, fantastic! He's gonna do our job for us!"
Lyle finishes the noose, as Moxxie then spoke out.
"Should we help him with killing himself?"
The Imps grabbed onto snacks, deciding not to go in and watch, and Moxxie silently agrees, as then began to eat popcorn and drink sodas, as Hodr watched it happen. A part of him wanted to feel bad...but not this time. Normally, he would not hold a grudge...but Lyle and Loopty...they deserve it. Not that Hodr would take pleasure and joy in if. He watches, as Lyle was about to put the noose through his head, before the noose glowed a holy white color, and the noose detonated, a shockwave erupted, as the Imps were knocked back by the shockwave, and the sock puppet flied away, as Hodr held his ground, but closed his eyes, before he looks inside, with Lyle Lipton seeing 3 light coming down to the ground. And coming from from the sky, are none other then the 3 Cherubs from the commercial. Lyle looks disgusted, as he then spoke out.
"Oh lord, I'm being haunted by ugly orphan children now!"
The 3 Imps recovered, as Blitzø, seeing them and recognizing them from one of the TVs that he destroyed, spoke out in pure spite.
"What the fuck? What are the C.H.E.R.U.B copycat bastards doing here?"
Cletus smiled, as he then spoke out to Lyle.
"Cherubs, Mr. Lipton."
Looking disgusted, Lyle spoke out to him.
"I hate filthy, stinking orphan children!"
Collin then takes the turn to spoke out.
"We're here to convince you not to kill yourself, sir. To grant you a blessing, on behalf of those in Heaven... benefited by your amazing... technological advances."
Loki appeared, an irritated look on his face, as he then shouted out.
"Technological benefits our asses! Don't they know who that fucking bastard is?!"
Hodr's eyes blinked, flabbergasted at what he has heard, especially from Cherubs of all beings.
"It is that easy...to go to heaven? But why Lyle Lipton of all people? He...he did awful things, that...that can't be right?! Why would Heaven want to save him?"
Hodr is now more unsure on what to think of the Cherubs. They should know about who he is. So why are they helping such a horrible, remorseless man such as he? Are they not concern of the lives of those filled with innocence? Blitzø looked enraged and shouted out.
"Oh, HEEEELL no!"
Blitzø then used his gun and smashes the window, as he then shouted out.
"Don't listen-"
But Blitzø almost fell, due to the floor being lower then expected. Luckily, Hodr grabbed his tail and stopped him from falling into glass shards, as he made the shards disappear, before gently putting him down, as both Moxxie and Millie went through the door.
"Lyle Lipton, it is our...humble opinion that you should continue the process to commit die."
Hodr teleported through the window, as Millie shrugged.
"I mean, what do you expect to do with all this money now you're old... and gross?"
Hodr looked unamused, as he then hears Kennie spoke out, while Cletus also took out Lyle's wallet.
"Is that supposed to be a serious question? He can help spread his wealth around with the people of the world! And do so much good with it! And be so fulfilled!"
She then grabs Lyle's wallet from Cletus, as Collin spoke out.
"He could pay for new hospitals and schools!"
Hodr looks at the trio as if they have lost it, and Lyle spoke our, gripping onto the bedsheets.
"Nnnno! Why won't you let me die?!"
Blitzø nods his head, as he then spoke out to him.
"Oh, sounds like ya need help offin' yourself there, buddy. Moxxie, what do we got for this fella?"
As Moxxie fishes into the coat to get out his weapons, Hodr decides to go to Lyle, as he then spoke out.
"Lyle. Do you remember me?"
Lyle looks at Hodr, and seeing a bit of his face, he does.
"Oh...yes. I remember you...you were one of the poor teens me and Loopty try to experiment on, until you escaped and put us out of commission for months. And now...now you returning I my life is making me feel more shitty then ever before. Why have you decided to return to me, you little vermin."
Hodr took a deep breath, as he takes out his crowbar, before he then spoke out.
"You want death...right? Well..."
Lyle looks at Hodr and nodded his head, as if he knows what Hodr is abojt to do next. Hodr lets out a deep exhale. He won't like death...he won't like killing...especially someone as vile as Lyle. But...he knows what the desire to die is like. After all, he is the same. He raised his right hand holding his crowbar, and a Hor recognized it as the same one that Hodr used on him and Loopty last time, as Hodr then spoke out.
"Just...hold still. I'll make this quick."
Lyle nodded, wanting to die more then ever, especially at the hands of one of his attempted victims. Hodr took a deep breath, and prepares to swing his crowbar, but Collin, seeing it, I'm medial try grabs it out of Hodr's hand, which stunned Hodr that a Cheryb would stop him from doing this, and Collin spoke out.
"There are still plenty of reasons to live, Mr. Lyle!"
Lyle looks unhappy, as he is denied death being given to him. Millie disagrees, as she then spoke out to Collin.
"Yeah, right. Smells like he ain't been out of bed in months!"
Millie then goes near the aged man and sniffs Lyle. But e moment that she did, she becomes visibly ill, as she then covers her mouth her mouth, but is unable to handle it, and she lowers her head and barfs, while she holds Moxxie by the shoulder as she vomits on the floor. Moxxie pats her on the back, in order to comfort her of this feeling that she has. Hodr looks down at the ground, and wants some answers from the Cherubs, especially on why they want to save him. Looking his hood over his head, which luckily hit his face from them, before he then spoke to them.
"Cherubs...tell me. Why do you want to bring him to heaven? If you know of him, you must have known of all the sinful acts he had done, as well as the remorseless heart that he possesses. Why even bother on someone who is corrupted and sadistic?"
Lyle nods, as he then spoke out to him.
"My former victim is right. Oh...the screams and cries of the poor being experimented and their lives ended cannot full up the void that is within my old body. I want to hear their screams when I am back as my younger handsome self."
Hodr looks at Lyle on disgust, clearly not happy with how shameless he is and not feeling a single ounce of regret. Cletus then did a fake cough, as he then spoke out.
"Well, it is because we have faith in saving others, and giving other people a chance. And we cherubs, we will give out a chance to prove he can be saved, not to mention he admired and loved. He can be loved at any sort of age!"
Keenie smiled, as she then spoke out.
"And we'll show him!"
The 3 Cherubs then did what seems to be a cheer of their own, as they screamed out at the above.
"Yeah!"
But Blitzø, Millie, and Moxxie disagree, as all 3 shouted out.
"Nooo!"
Hodr looked utterly stunned at the sight that is before his very eyes. However in their right minds think that Lyle deserves to be saving is clearly mistaken. He knows Lyle very well, for redemption for him is impossible, saving him is impossible, trying to make him change for the better, it is impossible. Hodr looks at Loki, who then spoke out.
"Well, this is just great. Now we are gonna be in a battle between the fate of a single shitty man. This day has gotten insane for all of us."
Hodr nodded his head, as he then spoke out.
"Still...this does not explain one thing to me, and that is...what are the Cherubs thinking that Lyle Lipton of people can be changed for the better. He is irredeemable, just as much as Martha and the one that me and Loona took down recently. And more importantly...why isn't it they appeared to me...when I needed a miracle from heaven to save me from the torment I was in?"
Lyle, still in his bed, is now outside and is being pushed by the Cherubs, seeing on top of a grassy hill. And beyond them...there is a forest and a lake shown before their very eyes. The sun is setting, which made the river sparkle in the twilight within the horizon that is before their very eyes. Lyle looks at the so-called beauty of nature before his very eyes, and as they made Lyle look, Cletus then spoke out to him.
"Look around, Lyle. God's gift of nature is a wonder to behold, regardless of age! Or wealth!"
He winks at Lyle, as Collin then takes the chance to speak out to him.
"If you were to end your life, you'd be missing aaaaaall of this!"
Hodr walks to the side, and he looks at the horizon that is before him, and luckily for him, the cherubs still don't know that he is a human that is with I.M.P. And he does admit, the view does look beautiful, looks like one of the most beautiful places that the most skilled painters would want to make a copy of...not that it would mean much to Hodr. Because Hodr, he has seen the terrible side of nature, the nightmare of mother nature's wrath, and as far as he can tell, this was going to end badly for Lyle. Then, Blitzø appeared, for some reason with a Tiger suit on, as he then spoke out.
"Mm-hm. You're gonna buy that load of shit from a baby and the sheep it fucks?l
He then puts his index finger through a gesture of a circle, the middle finger and thumb tips together, as he inserts the index finger into the hole. Hodr knows what this meant, and he silently looked disgusted at what Blitzø is thinking inside of his mind. Clearly, this is a gesture of sex. The Cherubs recoiled, as Keenie gasped in shock and disgust, Collin blankly stares in disbelief, and Cletus gives a disappointed look to Blitzø, and Keenie shouted back at Blitzø for this act.
"That is so inappropriate!"
Then, Millie and Moxxie appeared, both of them are now weari cat costumes, as Millie then lifted both of he middle fingers, as she flipped off Keenie.
"Oh, kiss our ass, prude!"
Blitzø, deciding to make the first step in ruining the Cherubs plan in getting Lyle to heaven, shoved him aside, as he sits next to Lyle, before spoke out to him.
"Aaaanyway, take it from me, a fellow genius. Nature is no picnic up close."
He then takes out a pair of binoculars out of nowhere. Lyle looks through the binoculars and sees an adorable group of bunnies and squirrels together. Hodr looked down, and he sees that they are not doing anything bad. In fact, they seem to be doing fines. They are now doing anything terrible, and are simply hanging around with each other. But Hodr knows that he should not simply assume that by appearance. After all, there will always be something that will ruin this supposed appearance of beauty. And sure enough, something did happen that had ruined it. And all of a sudden, the critters are suddenly torn apart and eaten by a pack of hungry wolves, as their limbs are formed and munched on, and their heads being ripped off of their bodies, the chest being bitten and consumed by the wolves that are hungering for them. The Cherubs looked horrified, relaxing what Lyle is seeing, as Lyle then spoke out.
"Oh no!"
Collin then tried to grab the binoculars away, but Hodr used his magic to hold the arms and binoculars in place, so that Lyle can keen on seeing this sight before his eyes.
"S-Stop looking!"
But Luke can't, even if he wants to, due to Hodr holding his body in place, freezing him like a statue, as Lyle then spoke out to Collin.
"I can't stop! I've never wanted to die more than I do now!"
Hodr looks at the seen before his eyes, as he then spoke out to him.
"I don't want to sound like that I am going to jinx it, but if I were to believe, this is about to get worse from what he is seeing currently."
Sure enough, it did get much more worse then before. Out of nowhere, a bear swipes a wolf to the ground, and it raises a paw to attack but is then crushed by a falling tree, cut down by a beefy logger with a chainsaw. However, the tree also has a little something from above, that was hanging from the branch. The little something was none other then a beehive, in whic. It then lands on the man's head and he screams, flailing his head to get the hive off while also throwing his chainsaw into the air, as the bees inside of the huge stunt his head. But unfortunately, because he threw the chainsaw into the air, the cutting machine then comes back down to the ground, cutting both of the man's arms off and causing him to scream harder, before his body is then skewered from behind by the antlers of a charging stag, as lighting crashed down from above, which shocked the deer and burned the man's body badly, and they both died from this.
Everyone was shocked, sans Hodr, who had no such expression, as he expected something like this to happen. Loki appeared and blinked with a stunned look present onto his face, as he then spoke out.
"Woah. This fucked up shit escalated more quicker then Blitzø fucking a horse."
Hodr said nothing, as Blitzø then made a smug grin, before Cletus, with a nervous look onto his face, spoke out.
"Uhh...how about we go and check out someplace else?!"
Moxxie and Millie did a fist bump, as Hodr looked at the sincere before his very eyes, as the lightning from the sky flashed again. His view changed, now showing human bodies being mauled, as their intestines and lungs and heart look as though they had been bitten and ripped out from the inside of their bodies. Hodr almost shook, but Blitzø tapped onto his shoulders, before he spoke out.
"Hey, dumbass? What are you standing around here for? Come on, we gotta have some cherubs to mess with, and an old shithead to kill!"
Hodr does not know what in the world that the Cherubs are thinking. Now they are in what appears to be a shopping mall of some sort. Blitzø and Millie are wearing suits that makes them look like elves, and Moxxie has a suit that makes him look like Rudolph. Hodr has a red coat with white fur on the hood and wrists of the coat, as he has the hood on to make his face hidden, so the Cherubs don't see his face. There is a mall Santa present, and he has a child on his lap.
"Out of all the places, why a shopping mall...especially with a fake Santa?"
Hodr and Loki look, and see the various kids there. One of which is a girl that has a bandage on her head and is missing a tooth. Mrs. Mayberry had mentioned throwing a young girl into the roof, and it appears to be that same kid. Another is a shirt that has MineCraft on if, although the positions of the 2 words have been flipped, so now it is Craft first, and Mine last, which made Hodr question the intelligence of the designers. Another kid is seen eating his own nose stuffing, which grossed Hodr out and turned away.
The door behind the kids opens up, as Lyle is now inside of a section of the mall, along with the Cherubs, as Cletus pushed him inside of said section. Lyle is on far more bigger distress then ever before, as he then shouted out.
"Oh, Lord! Where are we now?! Let me perish!"
Keenie then takes the turn to go and speak out to him.
"We're here to show you another thing life is worth living for: childhood wonderment!"
Lyle looks at the scene before his eyes, before he then takes the time to speak out.
"Why... look at those sweet, disease-ridden vermin. Th- Their joy comes from innocence, unspoiled by the burdens of adulthood... and their middle-class existence! Such simple joy they have. It is inspiring. Thank you for showing me this."
But Hodr knows that Lyle is planning to do something to them, possibly experiment on them. And so, he goes in to the and stop it, but Blitzø then decides to take his chance to shine. He stands by the Mall Santa with Millie and Moxxie, who looks frustrated, and Hodr, who teleported beside them, as he spoke out.
"Hey, dipshit! Wanna see whose lap you're sittin' on?"
Blitzø then grabbed onto the Santa costume and ripped it off of the man...and Hodr was horrified at what he is seeing. The man dressed as Santa is revealed to be an ugly, sweaty gnome wearing a "#Cuties" shirt and underwear, and he is now making a gnome noise. The kids, at the sight of this, ran in terror, as Lyle cried like a baby, with Colllin and Keenie covering his eyes, as Cletus takes the bed away.
"Santa's evil!"
One of the children said. Hodr, realizing that the man in a costume is a pedophile, felt very unhappy. Normally, he would tolerate most problems, but not when actual innocent kids are the ones seeing something that is corrupted. He steps forward, launched the man into the air with wind, before he then used another wind pressure to send him out of the window, which he crashed into, and out of the mall. A look of disgust is present, as he then spoke out loud.
"Okay, this makes me glad that I celebrate Hanukkah instead of Christmas."
Loki appears beside him, wearing a similar suit, except he has the hood off and is wearing a Santa hat, and he then spoke out.
"Yeah, agreed. Also, you better fog the kids' memories."
Hodr nodded, as he blows a red smoke that is chasing after the kids, and Blitzø then spoke out a question to him.
"Hey, what the fuck is Hanukkah?"
Now the Cherubs are using what they see as the most important virtue to humanity. But the location...they really should have thought of it, as they are in a place called Lovers Lookout, worn the heart replacing the O, and the words, I guess, underneath the sign. Lyle looks disgusted, as he shouted out.
"Egh! This place reeks of teenagers!"
Collin smiled, as he then spoke out.
"Lovers' Lookout, sir! We're here to remind you about possibly life's greatest joy of all!"
Lyle, mistaking it for something to fulfill his greed, raised his hands in such a creepy way, and flexed his fingers in a grabbing motion, albeit weakly, as he then spoke out.
"Money!"
But Collin shook his head, as he spoken back.
"No! Love!"
Lyle looks around, and was silent for a little bit, as he then spoke out.
"I've never been in love before. I imagine it's quite nice!"
Collin then flies to Lyle, a smile on his face, as he spoke out.
"It's not too late, sir! You can still find-"
But then, the Imps and Hodr stepped forward, with the 3 Imps, even Moxxie and Millie wearing dresses that make them look like women, and Hodr wears a fancy black suit with a bow tie, like he is ready to dance in a ball of sort, as Blitzø spoke out.
"HA! Nice try, ugly morherfuckers!"
he then takes out a Megaphone, and spoke out.
"Hey, horny lovers! Which one of you would FUCK this old man?!"
As if the message is sent instantly, the cars drove away fast, and this action made Lyle dejected. Collin got into Blitzø's face, as he shouted out with frustration present.
"You know, you three are so utterly c-c-cruel! We're just trying to give hope to someone in need!"
Moxxie then throws his hands up, as he shouted out.
"Oh... and you three are so superior to us just because WE want some selfish, greedy, authoritarian capitalist to keel over DEAD!"
Hodr looks down at Lyle, not feeling sorry one single bit. He still cannot believe that the Cherub would try to save someone like Lyle. He can feel his belief towards Heaven becoming low.
"Cherubs...I still don't get it. Why? Why try and save someone like him. You claim that he would make these all these cool machines for hospitals and schools...but you are forgetting the fact that he is a man that feels no shame nor remorse for the actions that he had done."
Keenie then looks down, her face in revolt and disgust, as she spoke out.
"What is wrong with that? We are here to save people, as well as change them for the better!"
Cletus then takes the chance to speak out, as he nodded his head.
"And besides...he can change. Humans are able to change for the better, and with his inventions, he is bound to make a difference in the world to help the lives of the innocence go to heaven much more easier then ever."
Hodr clenched his fist...as he then spoke out.
"But would heaven accept him?"
This made the Cherubs confused, and Hodr decide to ask a question of his own.
"My mother...she said that heaven is supposed to be the greatest paradise in all of existence. She said that this is where the lives of innocent people are protected. She even said that heaven would make sure that no corrupted people would come to heaven and hurt those that are defenseless. And yet...you are here, trying to save Lyle Lipton, a man that has caused nothing by suffering and pain to those that are below him. A man that cares nothing but himself. So...tell me...is that so-called paradise a sort of lie, and more importantly, are you truly here to save Lyle because you care for his life...or are you here to save him...because you want something from him?"
Cletus and the others began to sweat, as Collin spoke out.
"Wh-Wh-What are you t-t-talking about? Of course we are! W-W-We are just fulfilling God's will!"
Cletus and the others pushed Lyle someplace else, with Blitzø making a praising grin, as he smacked his back.
"Hah! Nice one! You showed the fucking cherubs who's boss here! It'll make things easier to take them and their fucking operation down!"
But Hodr did not feel any better. In fact...he is getting more frustrated and confused by the way the Cherub are acting. Now he is beginning to wonder...is Heaven truly the greatest paradise? Or is it a facade, that is simply hiding its true nature? Hodr, lost in his thoughts, then looks down, and sees the feathers from the Cherub, before bending down and stuffed them into his pockets.
The Cherubs are now inside of an auditorium, as they and Lyle are seeing a play of some sort. On the stage, there is a woman that is dressed as a Viking, as she sings opera on stage while wearing a fake unicorn on her lower torso. Also on stage is a well-dressed man that is playing a grand piano behind her. The cherubs and the audience are also well-dressed, though Lyle only wears a bowtie over his simple, sweat-stained hospital gown, as Cletus makes an awkward speech to give Lyle some form of hope that he can continue on living for them.
"Behold! The wonder of art and music! Somethin' always there to comfort… entertain… and live for!"
Unbeknownst to the cherubs and Lyle, up above the stage, the three Imps look down from a catwalk near the ceiling. Blitzo wags his butt and tail like a cat. Hodr is also in above, as he watches the opera happening.
"So… how do we make this bad?"
Blitzø said, as Moxxie then spoke back to his boss.
"We can't. There's literally nothing bad about opera. That's fact."
But Blitzø has a mischievous grin on his face, as he then thought of something.
"Unless we can make the opera fucking bad enough!"
Hodr did not like where this is going. Blitzø looks at the spotlight, and he smiled, knowing how to make this horrible for Lyle. He than grabs onto the spotlight and moves it away from the singer. The singer pauses and follows the light, resuming her song. Blitzo moves the spotlight again, and the singer again pauses to follow it. Lyle, not looking or sounding impressed, speaks out.
"She's not very good."
"Hehehehehehe..."
Blitzø chucked softly, has he then continues to move the light faster and faster around the stage as Lyle and the cherubs narrow their eyes. Blitzø wiggles the spotlight around aggressively, then gasps as he accidentally breaks it off entirely. The woman sings a final high note before the light crushes her on stage, smashing her to pieces and splattering blood all over the stage. The audience, Lyle, and the cherubs scream, while the pianist nervously tries to keep playing, his face drenched in sweat at the sight that had happened. Hodr looked horrified at this, not that he showed it, but he doesn't object, as Blitzø spoke.
"Well, at least we made it bad."
However, this is the straw that broke the camel's back, because the Cherubs have flied up, and they are pissed, badly.
"That's it! I have had it! You three monsters have messed with us enough!"
Cletus shouted, as Collin also shouted.
"D'ooh, we're just trying to do our j-j-job!"
Moxxie then spoke out to the sheep Cherub.
"So are we, you fucking dumbass!"
But Cletus is done with the interference.
"ENOUGH!"
Then, all of a sudden, all 3 of the Cherubs summoned a crossbow, with all of them loaded with an arrow made of holy light, as Cletus then shouted out.
"We are gonna be savin' that shitty old man's life, whether he wants it or not!"
Blitzø then shouts back.
"Well, someone wants that fucker dead, m'kay? And he paid in advance, and I spent it all on this…
He then pulls out a horse statue, a jewel-encrusted green horse figure wearing sunglasses and a "MARE-AJUANA" cap, as well as having marijuana leaves on it.
"So he's gotta go!"
Kennie then gets into his face, as she shouts out at him.
"You all are such disgusting, loathsome beasts! Your kind is nothing but dirt that shitty dead people tread on! And now, you're trying to meddle with the lives of humans?!
Millie then pushes Kennie back, before grabbing her by the necklace.
"So are you! So why don't you shut your trap, you judgmental, cotton candy, tit-havin' bitch?!"
Kennie was silent, before she then shouted.
"why you fucking-"
But before she can go and attack Millie, a Sigil appeared and blocked her, as Hodr walked forward, having also put a sleeping mist onto the audience, as Hodr could not believe what he is hearing from the Cherubs. He clenched his fist, as the cherubs look at him.
"So that was what it was all about? You aren't trying to save him because you care for him, and never even wanted him to die. You only want to save him because of his inventions, which you lot want to exploit for your own desires, even when you know that he is irredeemable."
Cletus did not like the accusation, as he shouted.
"You do not knowing a single thing about us, fucking Hell Spawn!"
He then fired an arrow at Hodr, who raised his hand and uses his power to make a dome of red energy around it. But the arrow made some wind that made his hood fell off, revealing his normal hair, and his lower face, showing his normal skin. This caught Cletus and his pals off guard, as Keenie spoke out.
"Huh? What is this? That's not demon skin!"
Collin looks, as he spoke out.
"That's h-h-human skin!"
Cletus was stunned, before he then spoke out.
"So, you are doing more then just ruining our work, huh? Now you decide to ducking kidnap a human for you to use. Possibly after killing his family."
Then, Hodr came out, and spoke out.
"No, they didn't kill my family. My family was killed by my own kind."
Collin then spoke out.
"B-B-But they brought you into hell to make you suffer!"
Hodr then spoke back.
"Except that I didn't suffer. I remained fine and alive.
"That is partially a lie, but at least Hodr did not suffer by I.M.P'a hands, as Keenie shouted out.
"Why in the world would you live among s group of fucked up shitty demons?! Hell is not a place for humans!"
"Hodr did not answer, as Cletus quickly then spoke out.
"Well, perhaps we can fix that! Leave the team of hell, so that you can not suffer anymore from their tainting influence, from their shitty atmosphere!"
He held his hand, and spoke out to him.
"So come with us, human, for Heaven is willing to give an innocent soul a chance in need of gaining a life! And it is certainly more worthy then being with shitty demons that care only about themselves, and use you as their tools. So, what do ya say?"
The cherubs nodded, with a superior smile at the Impa, thinking that this will make them pay for interfering with their business. Hodr was stunned. His mouth opened, and then closed a bit. He was shocked at what Cletus is offering to him. And Hodr, he looks down at the ground, and his hand began to slightly shake. And then, his body began to shake as well. His fists clenched, and his teeth also began to clench as well, a small snarl, as he then whispered.
"Suddenly...now..?"
This made the Cherubs confused, due to the fact that he spoke so softly and quietly, as Cletus then flied over to him, and spoke out.
"Hmm? What is that, do you acc-"
But before they knew it, a demonic shockwave occurred, and pushed Cletus, Collin, and Keenie back, making them almost drop their crossbows, as they flied backward, and stopped in midair.
"What in heaven's name?!"
Cletus said, as Keenie looks at Hodr shouted out.
"What the fuck?!"
The 3 Cherubs looked and see that Hodr, he has a red donic aura surrounding him. His hair is raising up and floating halfway in the air, his fists clenched, and his eyes are closed shut, as Hodr then spoke out.
"You...all of you...you lot are suddenly...answering to me now..."
He raised his head, and his eyes snapped open, the irises now red, and an expression of shocking, but unmistakable wrath is present, as he roared out.
"AFTER SO, FUCKING, LONG?!"
This stunned I.M.P. They have never heard him curse before, nor have they ever seen him this mad before. Cletus, horrified and confused, spoke out.
"What are ya-"
But then, Hodr stepped forward, as he spoke out.
"10, years. 10...fucking years, I had prayed. I had prayed to heaven for an entire fucking decade, so that I can be saved from all the horrible shit that I had been through, so that I can gain a reason to live, so that I can gain any form of fucking salvation, so that I can have something taken back that was stolen from my life, so that I can finally gain the hope and will to live, to give myself a reason to keep on fucking going and not give up! But when I prayed, especially at the end of my shit, did you know what I get in return? Nothing! I got fucking nothing and no one in return! I got no God coming down to aid me, not an Angel coming to save me, not even a single fucking cherub, even though I was a goddamn good person, who didn't even harm a fly! I was left to be abandoned, to suffer in this world, to rot in its corrupting sin, and never be free, not even with death! And now...now you cherubs have the gall to suddenly come down and do your business with me, to try and 'save' me, you hypocritical bastards!"
The cherubs are now scared. Obviosuly they fucked up on something, as Keenie shouted back.
"No, wait! You don't understand! What we do, it ain't that simple! Please, give us a chance and we-"
But Hodr got more pissed then ever, which made him shriek out at them, as tears of fury and disbelief leaked out from his eyes.
"Not that simple?! Not that, fucking simple?! What kind of a shitty excuse is that?! If that was the case, then it would mean you had complications with your fucking shit! But there was none! And worse, you never fucking cared about us innocence! If you cared about us, you would have stopped a human named Mrs. Mayberry, an innocent school teacher, from killing her husband who was cheating on her, and tried to stop her from killing herself, so that she can continue having her kids in life, as well as give her a faithful husband to give her a happy life! If you cared, you would have saved the victims of Martha and her cannibalistic and satanic worshiping family, who caused sins so unspeakable and fucked up! If you truly cared out us, that would have made you save the poor people from Loopy and Lyle Lipton from their experiments and cruelty! But no, instead, you go and save the man that killed innocent lives, the ones you were supposed to help and protect! And you...all of you ignored us, like we meant nothing to you. You treated us like ants that deserve to squashed! You don't give a fucking damn about us! You only give a damn about yourselves and your wants!"
Hodr could feel the rage within him, as it was growing and uncontainable. But...he also feels that it is now just his rage. He can feel another one inside of him. Another form of rage, and it is not his own. It is someone else's, and it is far more older and far more wrathful then his own. He then held his right hand out, and summoned his sword, not looking more different then before, now closely resembling a katana more then before, as the width of the blade shortened a little. He shows the tears away with his sleeve, points his sword at the Cherubs, before he spoke out, his tone much more leveled, but still furious.
"Now, there is no use to being saved! In fact, there is no more fucking saving! You cherubs will pay, for abandoning us! Me, and all of the innocent people you left behind and ignored, we will be avenged!"
Millie shouted out.
"You go at those fuckers, Hodr!l!"
"Fucking Demon Shit!"
Keenie shouted out, as she tackles Millie, and the other 2 Cherubs began to chase after Moxxie and Blitzø, with Hodr being the one to make sure that they are both fine, as he grabs onto the arrows and collects them for his own uses later. He also cuts at the arrows that are close to hitting the 2 male Imps, as Hodr then raised his hand, and all of a sudden, vines erupted from the bridge that is made of metal, somehow, as Moxxie dodged by jumping down onto the rope, and hits Collin, due to Keenie and Millie falling down. Moxxie then fired at the bag above them, and got Millie out of the way, as the bag landed on Keenie and hits her. Moxxie and Millie looked at each other, as they kissed, and began to fire everywhere, hitting the conscious crowd. Luckily, Hodr made a shield that protected them, or at least, the ones that have remained sane and innocent, while the other humans died at the shooting. Lyle, who is still alive, looks and watches at the fighting that is happening, a spark in his eyes coming back to him.
"It's all starting to make sense now! Life is worth living because we only get one! We must cherish it! If creatures far beyond this living world are going through these lengths over my life, then certainly it's worth living! Killing myself is not the answer! Plus… I'm still rich! I can just buy all the things! I no longer crave death!
Cletus and Blitzø, along with Hodr are still fighting, as Hodr grabs and takes the arrows and puts them in his jacket, as he shouted out!
Human, please stop! Don't you see, that we are trying to save you!"
But Hodr shouted back!
"Enough of your fucking lies, you baby man bitch!"
Hodr then fired a fireball made of hellfire at Cletus, a fire he never learned to practice with, as it hit him in the face, when Blitzø had ran out of ammo. Then, wheat grew up, and the kernels launched everywhere, as it made black explosions, which made Cletus in more pain then ever before. Hodr doesn't even know how to do that as well.
"Agh! You fucker!"
Cletus began to fire recklessly, with Hodr catching more arrows. But Cletus fired an arrow at a rope, one that Moxxie and Millie are swinging from, and the scaffold that Blizø and Hodr are on, as Hodr summoned Bran and jumped on the air, as Bran flapped and kept him in the air. The 3 Imps tied by the rope dropped, as the scaffold they are standing fell onto the floor, sending the piano in the air, and missed both the cartoonist and piano player, who got startled and decided to leave. Lyle, who was dancing, saw the piano coming, and dives behind another seat, but the piano, by some unknown force, changed direction in midair, and still landed on Lyle, as it killed him.
This time, it is not by the hands of the assassins that had killed a human. It is by the enemies of the assassins.
Hodr looked at the piano, as Loki appeared beside him, and spoke out.
"Okay, who is doing these cartoon physics in our life all of a sudden?"
Hodr and Loki looked at something with a confused look...as if they are seeing that they are being watched, and hoped for an answer by anyone it is that is watching them.
Moxxie looked with a smile, as he spoke out.
"Well, well. Would'ya looook at that? You... did our job... for us. Heh!l
Blitzø smirked at this event having passed.
"Talk about the cruelest ironies. You wanted to save a single human, yet you did the job for us in killing that same human."
Millie flips them off with both middle fingers, as Hodr, using Bran, floats to the ground.
Collin began to panic, as he cried out.
"Ohhhh, my gosh! Oh, my gosh! Oh, my Gooood! We killed him!"
Then, Kennie grabs him and slaps Collin.
"Get a hold of yourself, Collin! And don't use the Lord's name in vain!"
Cletus was seething with rage, as he shouted out.
"It's not over!"
The 3 Cherubs made a portal, and while their backs were turned, Hodr made Bran disappear, as he teleported the 3 Imps and himself back to Hell, as the 3 cherubs are pushed back from the portal.
"what the-"
Then, a group of cherubs came down, 2 bee, 2 sheep, and in the middle, a deer cherub, wearing a blue business sit. The middle cherub, Deerie, summons glasses and a clipboard, as she spoke out.
"Mmm, yeah, no, sorry, Cletus, but I'm afraid your actions resulted in the death of a human. I'm afraid you can't re-enter Heaven. Yeaaaah, noooo..."
Even though she is apologizing and sounded sincere, she still has a smile on her face, as if she was waiting for a moment such as this to happen. A sugary cruelty present in her grin.
"What?!"
All 3 Cherubs shouted, as Deerie spoke again.
"Yeaaaah, mmmmm, sorry! Yeaaaah, no…"
Cletus, not wanting to be separated from Heaven, spoke out.
"Is there…anything we can do?!"
But Deerie spoke back.
"Yeaaaah, nooo! Noooo, no, no."
The 3 Cherubs are scared, as Cletus attempted to keep himself into heaven.
"Bu-But, we didn't mean to! We'd never! It was all-"
Cletus attempted to reveal I.M.P's involvement, but saw that they are gone, and he was even more scared.
"Anyway, sorry, guys. But those are the rules! Yeaaaaah. Byyyye!"
Deerie and the other cherub went into the portal, Collin and Keenie look like they are on the verge of crying, as Cletus goes to the portal, trying to get one last information to them to desperately prevent himself from being banished.
"No! Wait, you don't understand! The imps have-"
But it is too late, as the portal closed, as Deerie condemned the 3 cherubs into banishment. Cletus could do nothing but cry, as he can no longer go home. And they paid for their arrogance, not just by thinking that they are better and more heroic then the Imps...but because they had betrayed a single human. A human that has now since stopped believing in the paradise of heaven because of their actions, after a decade of prayer, with no one to come for him, to save him, to give him the Will to live again. And it...it is all...their...fault.
Hodr and the other I.M.P members are back in the building, as Hodr sat onto the desk, and Blitzø spoke out.
"Welp, the old man wanted to live again and we didn't kill him, so we failed. Thanks to those fuckin' cherubs, he's probably up in Heaven now, so... It's a shame. All our client wanted was eternal revenge on his business partner. And now the two are forever separated, and now we gotta face the fire of fuckin' up. But at least the Cherubs also fucking paid by being unable or return, thanks to Hodr! Nice one, big guy!"
Even Loona was impressed at what Hodr had done, due to what Blitzø said to her, and Hodr sighed, as he spoke out.
"I guess."
Even though Hodr did in fact made the cherubs pay...even though he got it all out of his chest...all of the rage and frustration that was building up within him for years, Hodr still did not feel...satisfied. He did not even feel happy, not even relived. In fact...he feels...worse. And...that display of anger...the one that he didn't recognize...the one that didn't belong to him...what was that? He knows that it is not Loki's rage, and this...this felt nothing like Loki.
Moxxie then spoke out to Blitzø.
"Sir... when are you going to tell the client?"
Blitzø held his phone and spoke out.
"Oh, I already sent him a text, and... we're in good hands, 'cause texts don't make people angry."
In his phone, Loopty is named Lupis, and the text from Loopty reads "U fail, U die.", followed with Blitzo replying "sorry" surrounded by emojis, with "saxophone emoji" typed a line below.
"Blitzø, that is wrong. Just because you cannot show your feelings, doesn't mean that it won't make them angry. The info is enough to enrage him."
Moxxie, having a feeling on what will happen, looks worriedly to the wall behind him. He quickly scurries out of the way as a metal escalator proceeds to crash into the office. Decending from the escalator was Loopty.
"BLIIIIIITZO!"
Blitzø, thinking that Loopty is pissed, spoke out.
"Loofaaaaa! We can explain everything. I was-"
But then, another escalator came, and Hodr teleported Moxxie beside him, as another demon came down. This one is green, has a body mostly a ball, and has red spiral eyes, with piano keys for teeth. Hodr was not surprised that he's here.
"Lyle Lipton?!"
Moxxie and Blitzø said, stunned at this, before Millie spoke.
"I don't understand. We thought you went to Heaven."
Lyle scoffed, as he spoke out.
"Heaven?! You don't make millions in technological advances in robotics by NOT experimenting on the poor! Hahahaha!"
Loopty, now more happy then ever, smacked his friend on the back, as he spoke out.
"Oh, you no-good, Heartless son of a bitch! Thank you for reuniting me with my best friend!"
Hodr thoughts himself.
'Of course...Heaven needs Lyle alive so he can ascend as an Angel. That is why he is in Hell instead of Heaven. Well, at least of fits that they are in hell, after all that they've done.'
Lyle then speaks out a question that he and Loopy need answers to.
"The only question now is what do two old genius robotic inventors do now that we're in Hell?"
Then, Wally Wackford came out of nowhere, as he crashed through the roof.
"Did someone say, I say, inventors?! Name's Wally Wackford, and I am lookin' for creative new people to exploit-I mean, employ~."
Blitzø's now mad, as he shouted out.
"Everyone, stop fuckin' up my walls! Hodr's gonna have to fix all this shit! First we deal with Heaven's table-scraps, now this?"
Hodr looked annoyed, but did not protest, as he can do it when they leave. Wally then spoke out.
"I guess… you can say, you say, you have a... holey operation here, Blitzo!"
Wally laughs, and Blitzø, annoyed with this, spoke out.
"Get out."
Wally continues to laugh, as he spoke out.
"Oh! I say, oh!"
But Blitzø is getting even madder then ever.
"No, I'm serious. Get the fuck out!"
Hodr shook his head. This is gonna be a long day for him. And the weapons that he has in his hand, the one from heaven...perhaps he can make use of them. But Hodr still needs some answers...especially...on what the rage belonged to. And more importantly, the new magic and boost of power that he had gained from before. Where did those come from? Is it really his own power...or did it belong...to someone else?
