Living on the street is never easy, you'll have to do things you don't want to in order to survive and other regretable things and a werecat that seemingly came from the past knows this way too well. However, he'll have much more trouble living on the sidewalk once he finds a pair of mamono dening the loss of someone they held dear, whose death left them in cold streets.
(It normaly costs 2000 on their website, and 1200 at Walmart. But with my holiday employee discount, I only payed 800 bucks. So far it runs Ark: Survival Evolved at 150 fps on the highest settings, TF2 on highest at 200 fps, I'll have to download more games from my steam library for more tests.)
After helping their punkish comrade out and up, the lone female of the troop did a double take when she saw the Wererabbit before clasping her hands in front of her mouth to suppress her squealing, her tail perked straight up.
"EEEEEEEE! Oh my Hades! Is it really the Left-Hook Louie?!"
"Gak! Pfft! What are you going off about?" The punk chokes and sputters some of A's saliva out of his mouth.
"Quiet you! Nerdly, how's my hair? Does my makeup look cakey anywhere?"
"It looks fine, but my name isn't"
"SHHHH! Eheheheh… Ahem, It's very nice to meet the Champion of Underworld Mr. Lefty. Uh, can I call you Louie please?"
Lulu looks up to Theo with a confused look over all this, still cowering behind his legs. "Nerdly" rolls his eyes before getting them back on track.
"Aaaaanyways… We are representatives of Nine Rings Attorneys at Law, and our employer Vernatoth is currently acting as legal counsel for the defendant Roxanne M. Flanni-"
"Roxy's here?! Where?! Where is she?!" Lulu blurted out without warning.
MEANWHILE
"His heartrate is spiking! We're loosing him!" The Dark Priest yells, unplugging the blood transfusion device once every last drop of blood and mystery substance has been swapped for highly regenerative Ushi-Oni Blood.
The gremlin then takes the tube of aggressive red goop and inserts it into another device, one that drains the contents into an incinerator at a speed too fast for it to react and attempt an escape till there was a sample big enough to run tests on, but small enough to pose no threat of escaping. Camilla tries to kep her cool and not panic as she then changes position to straddle him, her face in line with his.
"Steven, please wake up! Don't leave me alone again..." she begs his unconscious body, kissing him on his slowly reforming lips and pouring more of her demonic energy into him.
Inside his mind, if Sargent Rodgers tried hard enough, he could hear Millie's whispering voice calling to him from the door on the other side of the room as the one with he phantoms of his family, begging him to come back.
"Please wake up... please..."
MEANWHILE
Roxy blinks a few times and blushes at the tiny sugar people singing praise and making offerings to her. though one of the sugar people children started to feel a little bold and blew raspberries at the demon, only to get scolded and hurriedly dragged away by its mother. Roxy then slowly begins to eat her ice-cream as she stares at the little village, taking her mind off them briefly as she experiences the wonders of frozen dairy mixed with marshmallows, chocolate and nuts.
"Mmm, so this is what chocolate tastes like... master never let me try any... whether I was a dog or a mamon-..."
Roxy clutched her gut and mouth as some of the worst pain she ever felt in her life ravaged her stomach's insides.
"NNNNF!"
MEANWHILE
"Hehehe, no doubts about that. Though his mother is caught between being worried about what kind of young werecroc girly he'll be bringing back, and if he'll even be coming back..."
He then began to remember something a little more somber as they drove, a certain member of their old crew as he spotted a certain gated off field with hundreds of white rectangles dotting it all over.
"... hey, why don't we visit Ol' Riptide on the way back... for old times' sake? I still got a bottle of his favorite in a crate in the back..."
MEANWHILE
"...Jack..." Bones says calmly with a deadpan look between his subordinate's panicking rants.
"Jack... JACK!"
When he finally get the ghoul's attention, he simply raises both hands before they pop off, letting the cuffs drop off him and into his lap soundlessly before he reattaches his boney hands to his wrists.
"We're undead Jack... and some of us are too rotten to the core for "Reeducation"..."
Many of the other goons followed their bosses lead, removing and replacing limbs silently as to not alert the guards of their ability to escape their restraints, Manu simply transforming into a pile of sand and bandages before reshaping himself into a cuff free mummy.
"Why don't we take a "break" driver?" The boss calls out, keeping his hands out of sight to prevent revealing their escape while making a kill gesture to Jack, "Derrick gets car sick REAL BAD... might have to make a little 'detour' for a bit..."
MEANWHILE
The Valkyrie field reporter nods as she holds up an ear piece, "Yes Kaari, police have yet to identify the vigilantes responsible for disarming the bombs put on innocent civilians AND for arresting the Gang of None other than undead mob boss, Bones Malones. The only evidence of their Identities are massive piles of broken volcanic glass and an invitation to a tea party at, and I quote, 'Super Duper Secret Base'."
(Alright, sounds like you've gotten a good deal on such a good gaming PC. Not that I would know much about gaming PCs, I'm a console peasant myself)
Louie smiled as he got down on one knee in order to get his face in lined with his fan.
"Of course you can kid!" He said, raising one eyebrow up as he got out a pen "You want an autograph aswell?"
Theo walked up to "Nerdly" and seemed to have the same questions as Lulu, where is the poochie Roxy?
"Who's Roxy?" A chips in, curious about Lulu and Theo's familiar, who's about to go behind bars.
"She's Lulu's adoptive sister. She's been missing since last night." Theo told A, making her rubb her chin in response.
"Oh, well atleast you'll get to see her again.....Even if it's from a glass stall and through a phone line!"
Louie turns his head around to look at A and yell "A!!! What the hell?! That's not funny!"
"Jeez, sorry. Just trying to lighten the mood...."
"You tried....But didn't succeed..." Urru said very bluntly.
"...........Anyway, where is she?" Cayden chimmed in, unaware that Roxy went her own way after her and Lulu's argument.
MEANWHILE
Steve rushed to the door that held the anguished screams of his family and just as he was about to twist the door knob, he heard Camilia's voice from the other door. Time seemed to freeze as the flickering flames froze in place. Her voice echoed through his head, begging him to come back to conciousness and not leave her alone. An eerie silence filled the room as he looked back and forth from each door.
He began to tear up as he slowly started to walk from one door to the other, his family was gone, he had to except it, he had to let go. Just as he was about to get within five feet of the door calling his name in Camilia's sweet, caring voice, the other door slammed violently open as the flames were snuffed out. He froze, the only movement coming from his body being his head slowly turning around look behind him. The door that held the scream was broken off it's hinges, while the maw of the door way was even darker, with a faint smokey aura surrounding the edges.
Steven stared into the abyss that was that door when suddenly, a long red and black tentacle emerged from the darkness like a bullet before wrapping around his left arm. It tugged at him with great force, trying to bring him into the mass of shadows and forming red pupiled eyes. He held onto the door knob for dear life as more and more tentacles wrapped around his body as they tried to pull him into certain death. Just as it seemed he was about to lose his grip and be pulled into gods know what, some sort of liquid dropped form the ceiling onto one of the tentacles, seeming to burn it with visible smoke arosing from it's burn. At first, the violet, honey like liquid came down in drips before suddenly pouring down like rain, searing the flesh of the shadow creature as it let go of Steven and retreated into the darkness.
Steven took advantage of this, twisting the knob fully before opening the door up fully and being flashed by beacon of purples light that engulfed his whole body.......and then.....he awoke.
The first thing he did when he came back to reality, was push Camilia off his mouth, turn his head over the side of bed and vomit in torrents. The colour not being a typical green, but a dark red as it swished around like mucus.
"OH!!! CHRIST!!!" He huffed and puffed, as the drips of crimson fell from his mouth before he stopped and realised that he was being straddled by his childhood friend.
"Uh-"
But there was no time for words as the remanence of his stomach started to take form. At first it just look like a puddle of blood that was sloshing across the room on it's on, but as it slithered further across the floor towards the cglass cylinder the Ignis was still contained in, it grew hind legs, claw hands, a spiked back and a single eye that acted as it's head.
MEANWHILE
Vernthatoth stared wide-eyed at Lulu, mumbling "Jeez, I wonder why?" as she bent over in angony. Meanwhile, the people of Sweetville, started to panick as they say that their great and glorious god seemed to be actively dying in front of them, leaving them to defend for themselves against the demonic eater world.
Vernthatoth got up from his seat and up to Roxy's side, examining what he could do about the situation. He seemed to get an idea about what he should do. He reached into his suit and grabbed a vial that seemed to contain, dozens and dozen of smile, strange demons and devils, which looked to be the lowest ranking of the hellborn.
"Now, Swallow..." Verthatoth said as he put vial against the mamono's lip and as he held her chin with his index finger and thumb. "I know how stupid this seems but just trust me..."
"I don't see why nah." Davy said, while pulling out his cutlass and pointing it directly towards the location of her old comrade.
"SET A COURSE OF RIPTIDE!!!" Davy shouted, seeming a bit too ethusiastic, even if they are going to see an old friend of theirs.
"Sorry, force o' habit.." Jones said as he placed his cutlass back back in it's sheath.
MEANWHILE
"I do?" Derrick said as he held his detached hand to his mouth, recieving a pained glare and a twitching of hands from jack. "Oh? Uuh, yes I do!" Derrick confirmed as he sat still in the back of the truck.
"Ugh, fine..." The driver said, making it clear he wasn't getting payed enough for this shit.
Just as he pulled into a different line, jack had already silently bit the chains off his cuffs and opened the latch connecting from the front of the car to the back.
"Wait a second....." The driver said, stopping the car for a moment. This forced Jack to close the latch and sit back down to keep up the act "Do undead even get sick?!"
Imagine this as the red goop stuff, yes I know it's from BOTW but it just works well.
The female imp's tail wags happily into heart shapes over and over at Louie's acceptance of her request and his offer for an autograph. she then pulls out a wallet from her skirt's pocket and holds out a limited edition holographic rookie trading card featuring Louie in his first match. The punk rolls his eyes and lights a cigarette.
"She's currently speaking with her attorney over how to proceed with her defense." "Nerdly" explains, "We were sent to retrieve Miss Lulu as a witness in her case and-"
"I'll come! Take me now!" Lulu blurts out, interrupting the imp without realizing how badly what she said could be taken out of context.
"That's what she said!" The narrator says, stealing the thunder from A.
"Alright, follow us. She and Vern are currently discussing the details over at Davy Jones' place."
MEANWHILE
The room suddenly felt very cold and darkened as Camilla slowly turned her head to the pile of red goop, her eyelids turning black as the pit as her irises glowed like the fires of hell. One could even hear the ominous choir as she dismounted Steve and slowly strutted towards the creature, a ball of pure black flames roared into life in the palm of her hand. Charred footprints form and burn into the marble floor with each step as her body takes a more terrifying form.
"You want fire? Go ahead and burn!" she spoke, her voice distorted and echoic like a true demon possessing her.
She suddenly extends her arm towards the red slime creature, engulfing it in simultaneously cold and burning hellfire that could only be described as the true meaning of suffering. She poured every bit of hatred, vile, sorrow and all the other negative emotions she had ever felt into her flaming geyser, fueling it to even greater effect as the onyx blaze ravaged the creature's body mercilessly.
MEANWHILE
Roxy resisted for a bit, but finally let him pour the vial of micro demons into her mouth and reluctantly swallowed.
MEANWHILE
Benji gives him a sad smile and chuckles a bit, "It's fine. He would have liked that enthusiasm..."
He then makes a turn and starts heading to see their old war buddy... at the Underworld Veterans Memorial Cemetery.
(He's been dead dead for many years.)
MEANWHILE
If bones still had sweat glands, they'd be in over drive. But, he keeps his cool and shrugs.
"Well not me, but apparently Derrick does since he still has guts and all. Remember the last time we drove him without making a stop or bringing a couple of Hefty bags Jack? The Art Museum job? We had to burn the old hearse and get a new one we couldn't get the smell out!" he says, subtlety urging the boys to go along with the story and make it sound as horrible as possible to get the driver to park faster.
While the rest of the Underlings decided to follow along side Lulu and Theo as they traverse the cliff side to Jones, A just stood still a moment as she looked at the camera with a look that just yelled 'Seriously dude? That was my moment!' before she continued along with the others.
"Sooooooo..." Louie asked, directing the conversation towards Lulu "Do you know why your sister went missing last night?"
"I bet that she and Lulu had a disagreement!" A chimed in, not knwing how right she was about the situation. "Probably before you guys went to heroically save these guys's butts?" She said as she pointed a thumb behind her to Kreed and Theo.
Urru then talks up when he probably should've stayed as the typical strong and silent type. "More importantly, why is she's getting locked up? Wouldn't surprise me if it's on account of rape, that's all mamono are known for....."
"You.......You aren't very nice are you?" Theo says to Urru's rascist comment.
MEANWHILE
A bloodcurdling, inhumane gurgling and high-pitched scream erupted from the creatures as it tossed and turned while being engulfed in flames. It started to frantically run around the operating room, running over peoples feet, almost catching them a light as well.
It's efforts to run aroun manically became more and more desperate as it started RUN UP THE WALL AND ACROSS THE CEILING before finally succuming to the third degree burns. As it fell to the centre of the roof, onto Steven lap before he throw it across the room, it started to crawl slowly to the Ignis ball. Just as it died, it placed a hand against the glass before finally turning into a simple puddle of boiling, bubbling goo.
Steven stares at the carcass of the mystery creature that was living inside his guts and says "Yeah, that's the lilim I've known since the third grade...." in a quiet, muffled voice.
Meanwhile, the still remaining percentage of living goop walked around it's chamber, taking the form of a creepy crawly of sorts buzzing around the blood container.
MEANWHILE
As the creatures squirmed down her throat and into her stomach, Roxy could physically feel them empting the contents of her stomach, starting with chocolate rocky road before they got about twenty percent of her breakfast. Luckily, Vern would put a stop to that, via would a typical geek would describe as the force. Suddenly, the little beast came flying out Roxy's mouth with a lift of Vernthatoth's hand.
"There! Feel anybette-OW!" Her lawyer sudden felt a jolt of pain against his back coming from the direction of the was-to-be desert people's homes. He turned around to be faced with barrages of sugary siege weapons. Looked like the cake people had built an entire castle decked out with all sorts of weapons, like cannons and ballistas. Infact, there was an army of glucose crusaders launching arrows and such at him, they even had knightly armor on them, while brandishing spears made from candy canes and shields made from hard candy. While they were ineffictive in dealing real damage, they still hurt like a bitch.
"Ugh! Anti-christ!"
MEANWHILE
Suddenly, as Lia was simply attending to her babes, everything in her house started floating like she was on the moon.as a dime glow of red cover the colony. Suddenly, she, her house and the entire damn colony was transported to an underground location. Once this was all said and done, the Baphomet just casually walked into her house.
"Hello there, no need to be alarmed. You and your familiars have just been brought to the Underworld as mandatory with the relocation described your pamphlet, yada yada yada, alright bye."
He said before leaving with his dark mages friend before high fiving after the got a far distance from the bridge. Infact, they seemed to have teleported the entire bridge along with the colony.
MEANWHILE
As the two continued to drive to Riptide's resting place, Jones takes out a small, octopus shaped locket containing of him, Benji and Riptide in uniform. He began to think about all the great times him and the boys had, goofing off, dealing with baddies, that once time Riptide body slammed into a table shattering it into pieces. He shore misses the beatiful bastard. (Ya get it? SHORE?!)
MEANWHILE
Jack frantically shakes his head in agreement.
"Yep, smelt like a rotten egg, raw sewage and expired milk smoothie! Almost made me loss my appetite!"
The Driver visibly cringes at the thought of this and says "Ok, fine. Hey! What luck aye? A stop light...."
The van comes to a halt as the driver obeys the rules of traffic. It seems that that detour wan't happening.
"Ok, you've got plenty of time to deal with your sickness here, do you have pills or something?"
Jack was unsure whether or not he should still go through with the plan, given all the witnesses around that would notice the blood splatter on the windshield.
(How was your Christmas? Mine was good, also sorry about how my responses are taking up longer to be sent out, just get a little stuck on what I should write)
(How was your day? BTW do you still get notifications for 'memes to bless your soul' because I've sent like plenty of hot mays-mays your way through that blog and I'm not sure if they are going to good use.)
