Outside the back entrance of Asmodeus's factory, squads of Vinea's hellhounds were readied to capture their target. Cars and trucks were setup blocking the road. Lines of hellhounds of three by four were set up at the entrance as they aimed at the large back entrance. As they stared at the door, one of the hellhounds took a large sigh as their partner to their left responded. "What, what now Jack?" "Its just... Why are we even here Jake, like why exactly?" Jack asked. Jake took a side eye look to Jack as he said, "Dude.. We're here to grab the target." "Yeah, but.. why again though? How do we even know if the target is what we're looking for?" Jack asked. Jake took an exasperated sigh as he turned to Jack. "Dude I'm not having this argument again with you. Can you just not say anything stupid for once, for once! You fucking idiot," Jake asked. Jack turned to his partner as he said, "But dude, have you ever gotten the orders of who we need to capture, or what is the purpose here exactly? Just because we're 'expendable' doesn't mean that we shouldn't know what we're probably gonna die for." "Jack will you stop being a fucking moron for once! I just fucking asked-" as Jake was interrupted by a loud crash, the Hell Riser flew out of the garage door on his corrupted motorcycle, leaving a gigantic hole in the door as both Trinity and Alistair riding together on the same motorcycle followed suit as they ran through the hellhounds knocking them aside.
Both Jack and Jake looked to each other as Jack said, "Was that the target?" "Yes.. Yes it was.." Jake answered as they both started to run to their cars, with the other hellhounds following suit. As they started to drive off, the escaping trio drove far away from Asmodeus' tower. Word spread throughout the invading forces as the helicopters started to fly away from the lust demon's home and factory. The trio kept riding fast on their bikes as they reached seventy miles per hour, Alistair looked towards the back as he rode on Trinity's motorcycle and said out loud, "Looks like we grabbed their attention! Now what Mat?" The speeding Hell Riser pulled back enough as he reached Trinity's motorcycle. "Now we just gotta take out as much as we can and once we get rid of enough, we'll hide it out and use the gem to head back to Thaddy's. Looks easy enough," Shuten said as he kept driving, only to be interrupted by a flying missile that came between the two motorcycles as it hit a nearby building, destroying a large chunk of it leaving only a few succubi and incubi surviving. Trinity looked to the armored warrior as she screamed, "Yeah real easy my ass!" "Keep riding! I'll handle them, Al you take any stragglers that get close!" Shuten said as he pulled back and charging his fist. He moved near one of the moving trucks as the back end was filled with the identical hellhounds holstering angelic rifles and shotguns. One of them attempted to fire their shotgun as Shuten pulled back quickly, dodging the spraying of bullets. As the Riser charged his fist, he slammed it immediately into the petrol tank and watched as the red electricity surge through the truck, making it explode on impact. The squad of hellhounds on the truck burned entirely as the flames engulfed them all, leaving the Riser untouched as he pulled away to another truck.
There were less the numbers in the bed of the vehicle as Shuten became slightly reckless, making him jumped onto the bed of the truck and started to attack the hellhounds. They flung their fists at him multiple times, and each time he responded with a block with his arms and hands. Grabbing one of their fists, he made the hellhound hit his own face as he said out loud, "Bruh you need a therapist for this self hate ya got." Only for him to throw him off the moving vehicle leaving the other hellhound ready to attack with a machete in his hand as he began to swung viciously at the armored warrior. Shuten blocked each swing with his forearms, the hellhound screamed like a maniac as he kept saying, "Come and take this blade like a good bitch! YA bitch!" Shuten instantly grabbed the tip of the blade with his hand, making the hellhound try to pull it away with no avail. The Riser then pulled the machete away from the demon as he threw it backwards. Making it fly almost twenty feet in the air, breaking it through the wind shields of one of the helicopters and stabbing its pilot in the head. The co-pilot attempted to steer the helicopter only to be distracted by the dead body of the pilot, making them crash into three other helicopters. Alistair witnessed the entirety of the attack as he saw Shuten grab the hellhound by his throat and throwing him away from the truck and crash right into one of the cars of Vinea's forces. "Now this is a chase!" The Goetia screamed with a slight tone of fear and excitement in his voice. Trinity rolled her eyes as she said, "Can you not enjoy this right now? I'm trying to keep us alive!" As the motorbike roared with a high sound of power, Vinea's men were slowly catching up to the riding duo. As Alistair whipped his hands up and summoned ethereal chains of teal and forced their car in the air as it pulled them apart. "You could've done that the entire time?!" Trinity yelled as she turned her head slightly to the Goetia's. "Not without risking our lives on the road, WATCH OUT!" The Goetia screamed as he pointed out. As Trinity looked forward, she saw one of the cars of the road about to crash into them making her swerve out of the way. The car crashed into one of the trucks of Vinea's men as it slammed heavily causing a huge explosion. Shuten saw the explosion as he past by it while he scanned for his motorbike. As he found his ride, he witnessed that it was moving by itself strangely. "Well.. Never look a gift horse in the mouth," Shuten said as he jumped back onto his bike and sped forward towards both Trinity and Alistair. "How're you two holding up?" The Hell Riser asked. Alistair was laughing with joy in his heart while Trinity gave a perturbed stare at the armored warrior. "I feel like I'm baby sitting a kid while trying to ride for our lives!" the Imp screamed. Shuten looked at the joyous Goetia as he kept screaming with excitement.
"Al, can ya not be excited right now! We still got those hellhounds to deal with!" Shuten yelled as snipper shot came between the two moving motorbikes from one of the vehicles. Shuten instinctively pulled back to attack the hellhounds from the car with a thunderous kick at the gas tank causing another explosion. Two trucks filled with the exact identical hellhounds showed up as they all aimed their weapons at the Hell Riser, prepped and prime to fire. Shuten looked to the sides as he immediately jumped off his ride on the right truck and watched as his motorcycle started to ride off by itself. Shuten jumped forward to knee one of the nearest hellhounds in their chin and punched him away from the truck and started to punch the other two hellhounds with a furious rage. Electricity was starting to build up with every hit that he made and his visor started to glow a heavy crimson tone as he started to growl with a guttural noise. Hellhounds from the other truck kept trying to hit him with their angelic weapons, stolen straight from Carmilla Carmine's factories. Shuten grabbed one of the surviving hellhounds on the truck and used his body as a shield from the bullets. Charging the dead body with electricity, he threw it straight at the gas tank, causing the truck to explode in a violent manner with the red and black electricity flying in the air from the explosion. The motorcycle that Shuten was riding drove back to his position, and grabbing an assault rifle and watch as it became corrupted he jumped back onto his motorcycle and rode forward towards Trinity and Alistair.
Both Jack and Jake were in the truck that Shuten had left and Jack was starting to shake Jake heavily as he kept driving the truck. "JACK! Stop fucking shaking me, and let me drive!" "But Jake! Did you see that?! DID YOU SEE THAT?! Guy just kept killing our dudes! He was riding our truck! Fucker took our guns and threw our guys and shit!" Jack kept screaming while flailing his arms about as Jake was getting frustrated at Jack's antics. "Jack, can you just can it and get me the goddamn radio!?" Jake demanded from his partner. Jack reluctantly and quickly pulled the radio from the car dash as he turned it on. As he was about to hand it to his partner, Jake grabbed it viciously from hism as he spoke on the radio. "This is Victor 12, repeat this is Victor 12. Target is still on the run and heading down Moaning lane. Repeat, Target is heading down Moaning Lane. All units respond. OVER!" Turning off the radio he slammed the radio into the car dashboard. Jack was looking slightly sadden by his partner's actions as Jake looked at the sadden hound. "Don't you start," "Dude.. You didn't have to yank it from my hand man.." Jack responded. Jake's eyes began to dilate with rage as he started to speed up. "OH I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY THAT I HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT YOUR BABY ASS AND MAKING SURE THAT WE SURVIVE THIS BULLSHIT!" Jake screamed as he swerved to the sides as he was trying to survive Shuten's bullets as the electricity was pulsing through them. The radio had received a signal as a voice went off, "Copy Victor 12. This Victor 1. All Victor units responding and proceeding onto Moaning Lane. Over." Jake signaled for the radio by folding his free hand at Jack and his partner handed him the radio as he said, "Roger that Victor 1, we'll keep you posted. Victor 12 over and out." Jake threw the radio at the dashboard once more and kept riding on.
Shuten had shot more bullets behind him as the truck known as Victor 12 kept swerving to the sides to avoid the bullets as he said to himself, "Tricky fuckers." Shuten turned his focus back onto the road as he leaned slightly backwards to propel himself forward and continued onwards regularly. A helicopter started to lower itself towards the escaping bikes and brought out a minigun and began to fire erratically at both Shuten and Trinity's bike. Forcing the Goetia cast a illusioned shield above him and Trinity. "ARE YOU SHITTING ME!?" Trinity screamed as a stray bullet hit her shoulder, making her wince in pain. While the bullets kept hitting Shuten and bouncing off of his armor, some of the stray bullets had scratched his body suit exposing some of his golden blood. Seeing the effects of the gun fire, Jake immediately reached for the radio as the truck began to swerve to the sides making Jack scream in a pathetic manner. "DUDE! WATCH THE ROAD MAN! WATCH THE ROAD!" Jack screamed. Jake turned on the radio and before he spoke into the radio he growled at Jack. "VICTOR 1! THIS IS VICTOR 12, I REPEAT THIS IS VICTOR 12! DON'T USE TURRENT FIRE! I REPEAT DON'T USE TURRENT FIRE! BOSS WANTS THE TARGET ALIVE OVER!" "Roger that Victor 12, using sniper fire instead," The radio answered back as the turret immediately shut down only for Victor 1 to be shot by Shuten's red and black lightning strike. The short circuited helicopter began to fall down to the ground and crashed heavily onto the road. With the blades of the helicopter flying backwards and slicing several of the trucks and cars in half. Jack looked backwards with eyes opened wide in fear as he spoke, "Bro... I wanna go home.. I wann go home.." "We'll go home when we catch the target!" Jake screamed in anger.
Trinity kept riding forwards while dodging all sorts of incoming traffic, leaving Alistair to make the illusioned shield to disappear. Alistair looked at the damages that the lightning blast Shuten caused and witnessed several decapitated heads flying out of the destroyed vehicles. "This is a lot of chaos.. Worst than Kasey," the Goetia said out loud. Trinity looked to the sides as she asked, "Where's your Angel buddy!?" Shuten drove up instantly as he yelled, "On you left. How much further do we need to be to find a place to leave Al?" "Just until we get these hounds off our tails! Or at least their forces dwindle enough!" Alistair answered as he was holding the Hell Gem. With a strange bump, the Gem flew out of his hands as both Shuten and Alistair looked scared as the golden rock flew past Victor 12 and landed on a surviving truck with a twelve foot long bed containing hellhounds armed with machetes and spiked bats. Shuten looked to Alistair in disbelief making the Goetia chuckle in shame. "I'm getting that rock, when I get back, we're leaving immediately! Can it work like that?" Shuten asked as he kept riding his motorcycle, as it roared its vicious sounds of fury. "I don't know, but I'd probably have to aim it somewhere Mat! Just go get it quickly!" Alistair cried watching his Hell Riser friend leaning backwards along with his bike in the air and turned it towards the long truck and rode off. Alistair using his bottom two hands, he cupped them to his mouth as he screamed, "GOOD LUCK SHUTEN!" Shuten sped past Victor 12, leaving both Jake and Jack in awe of confusion. Jack looked to his partner while handing him the radio as he said, "You might wanna let them know Jake.." Jake grabbed the radio and spoke into it saying, "This is Victor 12, repeat this is Victor 12. Heads up Victor 9 looks like you're expecting company!" Shuten kept speeding towards the long truck bed only to past them immediately. Leaving not only Alistair in a state of disbelief but Jack as well as he told his partner, "Uhhhh dude, is he leaving?" Shuten then turned the bike around immediately and headed back to the long truck as he jumped off his bike and at the back end of the ride. Surprising the hellhounds on the bed, they prepped their weapons as they looked readied to fight. Shuten looked to the hellhounds and chuckled viciously as he said to them, "Doesn't seem like a fair fight for you guys, your funeral."
Shuten began to charge forward as he boxed his way through the hellhounds. Some of which began to swing their machetes at him as he blocked each one easily. Each swing that they made, he responded as if he was a mirror to them when he blocked the sharped blades. One of the hellhounds used their spiked bat to swing at the Riser's head. Forcing him to dodge the vicious item. The hellhound's eyes were psychotic red with each swing he made making the Riser step towards the edge of the bed. "Looks like Ol Yeller got this bitch on the run!" he screamed loudly with his last swing. Shocking the hellhound, Shuten grabbed the heavily spiked item as it pierced his hands and his golden blood was seeping out of his wound. The hellhound tried pulling away only for Shuten to keep the bat in its place. He began to force the end of the bat to hit his head multiple times as he said out loud, "Nah, I just wanted some excitement punk." With one viciously charged pushed, he forced the hellhound away from him and slammed him through his fellow mutts. Pushing them off the bed of the truck immediately. Shuten jogged forward on the bed and saw that the Hell Gem was in between the exhaust pipe and the truck. As he grabbed it, a seven foot tall mutated hellhound landed on the bed making it shift heavily as Shuten stumblingly as he almost lost the golden rock. He turned around and scanned the gigantic hellhound while putting the gem in his belt. He looked at its fur as it was grayed with age and scars covered his body, his eyes were a purple-ish haze color as he stared angrily at the Hell Riser. Shuten started to laugh loudly with a joyous tone of excitement as he pointed at the mutated hellhound. "FINALLY! SOMEONE WORTH FIGHTING! Let's RISE!" Shuten yelled as he charged towards the hellhound with the mutated creature giving the Riser a heavily sized punch to his chest plate. Making the Riser to stumble backwards as he landed on his knees from the impact.
He laughed slowly with a insane manner as he brought himself up from the bed as he starred at the hellhound. He cracked his neck to the sides and swung his head around slowly. "Thanks pal, you cracked my back actually," Shuten chuckled evilly and charged towards the mutated demon as he immediately spun around to kick the demonic creature only for it to grab the kick, surprising Hell Riser. He pulled him close immediately as he started to rip Shuten's leg apart from his body, golden blood spew across the bed and the roads splattering several succubi and imps surprising them. Alistair saw this as he screamed, "MAT!" The mutated hellhound threw both the Riser and his leg forward on the bed. Shuten looked on the bed of the truck and saw that his leg was right in front of him. Fear was surging through him, but his anger was rising with every second. His breathe was short and quick as he panted heavily holding back his rage. "This can't be... I.. I can't lose.. I can't lose here.. Not against this fucking prick! NOT AGAINST ANYONE!" He screamed with his cyber voice. He roared a violent and malevolent scream. The mutated hellhound started to walk close to him as he growled demonically, with every step he took. Shuten's eyes glowed a violent crimson red. The red and black lightning began to spew outwardly and a dark black cloud started to surround the Hell Riser as he kept screaming viciously. Trinity and Alistair heard the scream as the Imp asked, "What the fuck was that?!" "Trinity.. Keep riding.. What has he done.." Alistair said with fear in his heart.
Shuten started to change violently as red cracks appeared on the red lines of his body suit with the eyes of the Reliquary cracking immensely. His leg violently moved to his body to put itself back into place and it forced itself together seemingly healed but not entirely. His claws became much more define as finger sized plates appeared on his digits while spikes of six appeared on the calves of his boots and his shoulders gained a small spike on them. Razor sharp edges protruded on end of his gauntlets with a small tip near the tip of the edge. His helmet drastically changed as his silver mouth was forcibly opened with a slight unhinged jaw line and the top moved up making his visor become more bug like. While the small bumps that reside on his sides turned into razor sharp like pinchers. The golden diadem on the forehead turned into sharp mandible like crest. Shuten slowly moved upward as he was growling viciously as he stared upon the mutated hellhound. As the creature was about to swing his heavy claw at him, Shuten instantaneously moved past him onto the other side of the tall creature. As he appeared to be holding a strange object in his arm. It was long, furry, and gray with four fingers on the end. The creature looked confused as he looked to his left arm and realized that it was missing. He screamed in pain as he crouched down onto his knees, holding his wound preventing any more blood leaving his body. Shuten squeezed the hellhound's arm into oblivion, as if it was air, the hellhound's arm blood spewed everywhere with the fur flying into the air. The mutated hellhound growled angrily at the newly transformed Riser as he tried to throw his remaining hand at Shuten only for his arm to be removed like before.
The creature screamed loudly as Shuten used his arm to beat him down to the bed of the truck with his torn arm. He slammed hard and hard against the mutated hellhound over and over again. Alistair watched in fear as he gasped loudly as Trinity kept driving while dodging the traffic still. Shuten then threw the arm away from him as he began to punch the demon slowly and filled with hatred in his heart. He growled loudly as he kept pounding away at the mutated creature, blood flew out of the already dead body, but Shuten kept punching away with no care in his mind. Darkness slowly creeped out of his body as it started to grab the truck driver and threw him away as the hellhound screamed. Jack looked to his partner and screamed, "DUDE! WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT!?" Jake looked in the rear view mirror and saw that the Hell Riser was starring at their truck and within a moment he appeared at their vehicle with Jake swerving out of fear. "SHIT FUCK FUCK SHIT SHIT! FUCK!" Jake screamed loudly. The truck swerved to the sides as it slammed at the other cars hitting them away. The transformed Hell Riser starred coldly at the two as he grabbed the roof of their car and ripped it away like it was butter. The roof of the car flew past one of the surviving helicopters. "Victor 12 repeat Victor 12. Victor 23 is sending backup, repeat Victor 23 is sending backup. Acknowledge, over!" The radio said as Jack grabbed the radio and said into it, "DUDE GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE! JUST FUCKING RUN!" Ignoring the plea, the helicopter hovered over dropping several hellhounds onto the bed of Victor 12. They attempted to fight the demonic Riser, throwing their fists at the creature only for Shuten to rip them to shreds with the swing of his claws. With every slash, blood threw wildly as he growled with each swing. He cut upward with his bladed gauntlet cutting a hellhound vertically in half. Making the hellhound split in seemlessly with the blood splitting along with him. The Hell Riser bent backwards as he made a guttural cry, a cry that reached throughout the rings of Hell itself, shocking all that heard. The ground shook as he cried making the drivers shake heavily. "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!?" Jack asked. "What the fuck was that Alistair?" Trinity asked the Goetia. Alistair had a fearful look in his four eyes as he was frozen in place. Trinity looked slightly over her left as she tapped the Goetia on the shoulder heavily, shocking the demon lord in his place. "Hey! Don't get lost on me! What is going on?!" She asked the Goetia. Alistair shook his head as he saw the Hell Riser slowly turned to the two hellhounds in Victor 12. The Riser immediately grabbed Jack by his head as he was about to take a gigantic bite out of his head only for Jake to grab his shotgun and screamed out loud, "GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY BROTHER!" Pulling the trigger, the shot gun immediately blew half of Shuten's head apart. Golden blood dripped from the helmet as all the broken pieces forced themselves back onto the Hell Riser instantaneously. He turned his attention to Jake, growling viciously at the hellhound.
Alistair grew a vicious snarl as he said to himself, "I can't let you do that Mat!" He snapped his fingers and the illusioned chains immediately wrapped around the Hell Riser, confusing the demonic warrior as he screamed loudly once more. The Goetia raised his hand with a fishing like pose to seemingly rto eel him in as he cast a bed similar to a truck bed. He made the Hell Riser land right onto the fake bed as he was squirming with rage and anger, cracks were already showing up on the fake chains with Alistair's heart beating with an intense pace. "Mat calm down! This isn't you!" Alistair cried as he saw the Hell Riser screaming with rage, his eyes glowing brighter. Alistair noticed the Hell Gem in his belt and quickly grabbed it, he placed it on his finger and snapped his fingers to summon a portal out of the Lust Ring at the incoming traffic light. "There Trinity! Head for the portal!" Alistair screamed. Trinity nodded her head as she sped up the motorcycle reaching up to ninety-nine miles per hour. As she kept speeding on the motorcycle, Shuten was screaming more and more as the chains kept breaking apart each time as Alistair kept making the chains reappear onto him. "Almost home Mat hang on!" Alistair said with the Hell Riser almost ready to break out of the chains once more. Within moments, the motorcycle with Trinity and Alistair along with the Hell Riser disappeared within the golden portal. Jake and Jack's truck were speeding up as it started to break down instantly. As the engine started to explode, the truck slowly came to a complete stop as both Jack and Jake were frozen from fear. Their hearts were beating heavily in their chests as they held their breath. Time felt like it had a complete stop with the surviving forces breaking down completely with the one of the helicopters crashing into a crowded building killing the citizens inside. "So... the target escaped.." Jack said while Jake was nodding his head. "And.. We just.." "Watched almost our entire crew die before our eyes.. Yeah. Yeah that happened.." Jake answered his brother's question. "So.. what do we tell the boss?" Jack answered. Jake looked down on the dashboard as he said, "Tell him.. Tell him the target was lost and basically killed our crew.. With very few survivors." As he slammed his head against the wheel, the air bags immediately blew up in the faces of the hellhounds, covering them immediately. "I HATE THIS FUCKING JOB!" Jake screamed.
