Lucy and Junior went into the heart of Pentagram city, looking for anything that could help them find Roo or Lilith or... anything at this point.
"Remind me again why I have to wear a disguise?" Junior asked, dressed in a green hoodie, white skirt, and sneakers.
"Because you're surprisingly famous in this city and we don't want people getting in the way." Lucy answered.
"Uh... and you aren't?" Junior asked, "Miss Princess of all of Hell."
"You forget, the Pride Ring is mostly sinners. Even if mom has made life a bit better for them, they mostly don't care about my royal standing." Lucy said.
"And they do for mine as an entertainer!?" Junior asked.
"Yep, life's unfair isn't it?" Lucy said with a tiny grin.
"Why do I need a disguise, I can literally be shaped into anything! I don't think this fake mustache will change anything as much as that!" Junior screamed.
"Hey! Quit screaming you random dumbass! I can't hear my radio while I'm sweeping here!" Random sinner said in front of his pawn shop. "Honestly, fucking morons ruining my mood."
Lucy had a smug smile as she looked at Mammona.
"I rest my case, cous." Lucy said with a nod.
"Shut up." Mammona said with a frown.
"Nope. Anyway, keep an eye out." Lucy said as they kelt walking.
"Yeah, yeah, keep n eye out for anything weird or out of place or- a weird graffiti tag of a dead tree?" Mammona rambles before ending in shock.
"A what?" Lucy asked, looking to Junior.
Who pointed at what she was looking at. A pitch black, decaying tree bent at unnatural angles surrounded by red flames and dozens of eye balls staring at it.
"Okay, THAT is the creepiest graffiti have ever seen." Lucy said with grimace at the graffiti tree.
Which sudden moved as the eyes turned to both of them.
"... Did you see that too?" Junior asked, now hiding behind Lucy.
Lucy didn't respond, she just lifted her magnums from her holsters.
"Yes, I did. Stay behind me." Lucy said as Junior nodded rapidly.
"Hehehehehehehe. So... you're the infamous Lucille?" The graffiti asked with a giggle.
At this point Junior was shaking like a leaf. While she can be rude, annoying, energetic, and horribly greedy... she was also still a kid... and she was terrified.
"Don't worry, Junior, I'll handle this." Lucy said, before looking at the graffiti, "What of it!?"
The graffiti moved on the wall and morphed its form... before it came off the wall and became a person.
"Well, I just wanted to rid the world of another Morningstar." Roo said.
"Ano- YOU! YOU PUT GRANDPA IN THE HOSPITAL! YOU'RE ROO!" Lucy shouted in rage, cocking and aiming her guns.
"Full name, Root of all Evil. Yes. The pleasure is all mine." Roo said with a "friendly" smile. "Now, if you could just stay still and let me kill you, that would be great."
Roo then stretching her nails towards Lucy and Junior to kill them, making the former grab Junior and jumped away from the attack!
Taking cover behind a care, Lucy began shooting at Roo. But the woman just deflected the bullets with her nails.
"Oh wow, you really think that will do anything?" Roo asked.
"How about this?!" Lucy shouted as she reached into Junior's pocket and pulled out a grenade.
Pulling out the pin, Lucy threw it and it blew up at Roo's feet. There was smoke and the two waited to see what would happen when the smoke cleared.
"Do you see anything?" Junior asked.
"No." Lucy said.
The two felt a pair of hands grab their shoulders.
"What are we look at?" Roo asked, suddenly behind them and leaning forward.
"AAAAH!" They screamed as they both moved away from Roo!
'Does she have toon force too?!' Lucy thought in shock.
Lucy immediately pulled out one of her guns and pointed it at Roo's face.
"Hm… cute." Roo said, grabbing the gun and crushing the barrel with her hand.
She then bitch slapped Lucy all the way across the road and into a car. Junior, despite her fear, pulled a giant hammer out of her pocket and slammed it against Roo with enough force to shatter it.
"Oh shit!" Junior said in fear.
"Oh." Roo said, turning to face her, "Don't think I forgot about you."
She grabbed Junior by the neck and start compressing her into a ball about as big as a soccer ball.
"Oh, I think you look better this way." Roo said, opening her mouth widely and stuffing Junior in her mouth before starting to chew, "Sushi flavored bubble gum… what an interesting thing."
Roo then felt another thing of bullets hitting her in the back.
"Damn bugs." She said, turning to see Lucy with her other gun, "You done?"
"Not even close bitch!" Lucy shouted, reloading her gun.
Roo just blew a bubble and let it pop before pulling her gum back into her mouth.
"Fine." She said.
Roo disappears and then reappeared right in front of Lucy. With no time to react, Lucy felt her elbow get bend in the wrong direction and the sickening crunch that came with it.
"AHHHHHHHH!" Lucy yelled as she dangled in the air by Roo holding her by her now broken arm.
"Hmm, I wonder." Roo said before she blew another bubble, "Do you taste as good as your little friend? Why don't we find out?"
Roo spit out the green glob and opened her jaw, dislocating her jaw like an anaconda. Lucy tried to squirm away, but couldn't. Roo's tongue moved her her head and face, making Lucy scared… before a sharp blade was thrusted into Roo's mouth. Roo dropped Lucy and growled, before she was thrown away, off the blade.
"Stay the fuck away from my daughter." Vaggie said as she growled.
"Mom!/Aunt Vaggie!" Lucy and Mammona said in relief.
Vaggie glared at Roo and spun her spear in her hand.
"I am giving you one chance to give up." Vaggie said.
"Hm... no, I have a job, and that's the kill the annoying gray bitch that's currently picking up my gum." Roo said, pointing to Lucy.
Who was used her good arm to hold Junior, who is still just a green glob with a face, close.
"You are not laying a FINGER on my daughter again! You hear me?!" Vaggie shouted, unleashing her wings.
"Fine... you'll do then." Roo said.
She sent her nails at Vaggie, but Vaggie tapped the side of her eye patch, making the laser fire at them. They were burned off and Roo looked mad as they grew back.
"Fine, I guess I'm going to have to wipe Morningstar from the face of the afterlife." Roo said, before blitzing at Vaggie.
She swung her nails at Vaggie, and Vaggie barely dodged them, before proceeding to backhand Vaggie away. Vaggie hit a wall and let out a hiss of pain. Roo then grabbed Vaggie and lifted her against the wall.
"I wonder... what does angel heart taste like?" Roo thought aloud, before sticking her nails into Vaggie's chest.
"GRRRRRR!" Vaggie let out, refusing to fully scream.
Roo then began to turn her hand, like she was trying to make a hole in Vaggie's chest so she could pull out the heart. Vaggie, being the stubborn Lesbian she is, twitched her fingers, making claws come out of her fake arm. She swiped at Roo, actually hitting her in the eye as black blood ran down Roo's face. Roo dropped Vaggie, giving Vaggie a chance to get up.
'Time for some payback.' Vaggie thought.
She ran at Roo, throwing several strong punches to her stomach, before grabbing her head and bringing it down into a knee strike. Roo stumbled back, while Vaggie grabbed her spear. She swung at Roo and successfully hit her, cutting off her legs in the process. Roo fell to the ground and Vaggie put her spear against Roo's neck.
"Where. Is. Charlie." Vaggie demanded.
"Hm, Lilith's bitch? Sorry, I don't know, nor do I care where she is." Roo said, as she looked at Lucy, "Maybe it's time you get yourself a new mommy."
Vaggie shoved her spear through Roo's shoulder.
"WHERE IS SHE!?" She screamed in rage.
Roo glared at Vaggie, but also noticed something that made her smile.
"You know what I really love? Regeneration." Roo said, pulling her legs up and kicking Vaggie away.
Roo stood back up and looked at Lucy, as she was trying to mold Junior into a sling with one arm.
"Oh, I don't think you'll need it for that." Roo said, still referring to Junior as 'It', "You won't be alive long enough for your arm to heal."
She kicked Lucy away and stepped on Junior, making sure to stand on top of her to prevent her from reforming. Roo lifted Lucy up and smirked.
"No friends this time, huh little cunt?" Roo asked... before getting hit in the jaw by the butt of a sword.
She dropped Lucy and looked at the masked figure, the same one that Emily had been researching on.
"And who the fuck are you?" Roo asked with a raised brow.
"Someone you wronged long ago." The person asked.
"Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down?" Roo asked.
The figure got their katana ready and sent a glance at Lucy.
"Get your mom and get out of here kid." The figure said, picking up Junior and handing her to Lucy, "I have a score to settle with this whore."
Lucy didn't need to be told twice, as she was down one gun and one arm, not to mention she was out of ammo. So, quickly holding Junior with her teeth she ran to her mother and pulled Vaggie away from the fight. Seeing her targets escape, Roo glared at the figure.
"I hope you know how much you fucked up." Roo said.
"My only fuck up was not killing you when I had the chance." They replied
The figure ran at Roo, using her sword to try and cut Roo. Sadly, Roo blocked it with her nails.
"Fine, I'll humor you." Roo said, pushing her back, "Give me your best."
The person ran at Roo and Roo expected another strike. To her surprise, the figure let out two large dragon wings and jumped over Roo. When behind Roo, she went for a finishing blow, but Roo managed to block it, just barely. The figure didn't let up though, as she began to swing her blade at Roo, her only showing eye showed pure anger and hatred in it. Roo either dodged or blocked the strikes and then went with one to the figures head. The sharp nails cut clean through the mask and knocked the figure to the ground.
"Looks like I win round one." Roo said.
The figure looked up and glared at Roo with glowing eyes, revealing their identity.
"Get ready for round two, bitch." Lute said.
