I leaned against the wall as my dad talked to Crimson.
At least today was a day off for IMP. But this is so boring!
"So, you say you're good? Cuz' we really need a big score right now. And I recognize your hellhound from IMP." Crimson said, glaring over at me.
"My daughter works as a traitor on the inside ya see, she'll give me any information I need." I told him before clearing his throat. "Anyways, I'm the best. Had a royal on the ropes just last week! You can even ask her." He pointed over to me, I nodded.
"Sure, but not dead?" He asked my dad, I went back on my phone.
"It was... called off. But I have a body count in the hundreds! I ain't afraid to go after anyone. Women, kids, and cute little-faced puppy looking things. Don't matter!" My dad told Crimson.
"Hm. I'll tell you what; If you can deliver something of value... I'll consider it." Crimson said as my dad walked toward the window.
"One moment..." He said before opening the window. I looked back down at my phone. "You're gonna wanna move Sweetie." He told me, I obeyed and moved from my spot. As soon as I looked up from my phone I noticed Blitz and Fizzarolli smash into the wall.
"Hired!" Crimson said with a laugh as the sharks surrounded them, I got shoved to the back so I could only hear.
"Funny to run into ya' again, Blitzy!" I heard my dad say. "And with a famous friend..." He referred to Fizzarolli.
"Oh, fuck me." Blitz said.
"For the record, we are not friends." Fizzarolli said. Crimson snatched his phone and threw it to me. "Hey!" Fizzarolli yelled. The sharks took care of him.
"Record me." Crimson said, I looked at my dad and he nodded. So I aimed the camera at him and hit record. "Hello, Asmodeus. You don't know me, but you don't need to. All you need to know is I have your little jester here with me. If you want him back alive, you will give me exactly what I want. You probably just asked if I know who I'm dealing with. And, oh yes, I know. The weakest and most non-threatening of the Sins. The king who will do whatever it takes to save the worst kept secret in all of Hell. We both know you won't risk anything happening to the clown. So be a good little bitch boy, and do the thing. My lawyers will be over shortly with the contract of demands. You have until the witching hour to sign it." Crimson laughed. "Now, cut. I SAID CUT IT, YA FUCKIN' MORON!" I winced as I quickly ended the video. My dad hissed.
"I'm gonna have to ask that you don't yell at my daughter." He said.
"Whatever. Get these two prepared." Crimson told his sharks, they grabbed the two and dragged them away. I followed my dad on a different path. My dad made me stay in a room, eventually Crimson came and got me and took me to where Fizzarolli and Blitz were tied up, we both noticed my dad holding Fizzarolli by his neck. "HEY, hick-for-hire! I said watch em', not fuck em'. Keep ya' hands off the merchandise!" He shouted. My dad jumped off the cage and I jumped up, taking his place.
"EAUGH! EVER HEARD OF MOUTHWASH?! FUCK-FAAACE!" Fizzarolli called, I growled at him.
"Better shut your fucking mouth before I do it for you." I threatened.
"Hoco, you're getting me out right?" Blitz asked.
"I can only help you in small ways, as for Fizzarolli.." I growled.
"What the fuck do you have against me!?" He shouted at me, I growled and went in the same position my dad did. Holding the cage.
"You don't recognize me?" I asked him.
"Recognize you!? I don't even know who the fuck you are!" Fizzarolli shouted.
"Is that right? 'Fizzy-Wizzy'?" I asked. Both imps paused.
"Hoco-Loco.." Fizzarolli whispered.
"So you remember me now, both of you, and exactly what you did to me." I said.
"I didn't do anything! I had no control over it! It was Buckzo! Why don't you blame Blitzo!?" He asked.
"Oh I do. But there's a difference, he helped me. You didn't do anything for me that day. You watched as Buckzo took me away and you did nothing to help me. You didn't care!" I growled with tears in my eyes.
"Hoco I never stopped caring about you! It's just-" Fizzarolli said but he stopped himself.
"Just what? You thought I was dead and continued working for that man? You thought I was gone forever? You thought I would get you when all I did was protect you? That I stopped caring about you? If you cared about me you would've looked for me, I was stuck at that orphanage for most of my life until my dad got me out." I told him.
"Yes.. I thought you were dead I.. I didn't want to know if you were! I still cared about you Hoco!" He said. I felt myself tear up as I gulped.
"Then why didn't you try the orphanage to adopt me..? I was stuck there for almost sixteen years after Buckzo abandoned me.. You couldn't at least tried to prove you cared about me.." Fizzarolli looked away. "But you didn't.. Which makes me question why I still care about you." I said as I opened the cage and went in. I grabbed Fizzarolli and cut his restrains as he flinched before doing the same thing to Blitz.
"Wait, what are you doing?" Fizzarolli asked.
"I still care about you both despite the ways you've hurt me, especially when Blitz adopted Loona, we had a pact. Either adopted together or not at all. She broke that pact. But I still care for Blitzo. So I'm going to help you both in little ways to escape. But if I get caught.. Crimson will kill me and my dad.. He'll feel so betrayed.." I told them.
"We understand Hoco. Go hide, we'll find a way out." Blitz told me. I nodded.
"Wait.. Five.. Four.. Three.. Two.. One.." I started counting.
"Hoco! Kitchen!" I heard my dad shout.
"LUNCH!" I shouted excitedly before jumping off the boxes and running to my dad's voice. I nearly ran into him at the doorway.
"Woah there! What do you want for lunch?" He asked me. My tail started wagging, I was starving.
"Can we have hell burgers?" I asked. My dad chuckled at me.
"Of course sweetie." He told me, I sat down and waited excitedly. As he started cooking we both paused at a large crash noise.
"Shoouuuld we go check on that?" I asked.
"Nah, I told Crimson we needed a lunch break, so we're taking that break." He said before going back to cooking. I kept waiting, getting more excited as I could smell the burgers. Soon enough they were done and he put them down in front of me, he grabbed his and we began eating them. We kept hearing loud noises.
"Are you sure we shouldn't check on it dad?" I asked him. He sighed.
"Okay, I can tell the noise is hurting your ears so let's finish quickly and check on them." He said. We both started eating quickly and as we were done we ran out and saw the disaster in front of us. He quickly grabbed my wrist and dragged me with him as he shoved past the sharks.
"Dad! Dad hey! Your grip is too tight!" I said. He let me go as he hissed angrily.
"If ya wanna prove yourself, cowboy, here's your chance!" Crimson said. He glared at me again. I saw my dad smirk as he walked toward Fizzarolli and Blitz.
"You been a pain in my ass long enough, Blitz. Now, I'm gon' break you like a fuckin' horse!" He shouted, grabbed his rope and making a crack sound.
"Ohhhh, don't you dare talk sexy to me." Blitz said.
"You're still on the horse thing?!" Fizzarolli shouted.
"Gross dad." I commented.
"You know that's not what I was doing!" He looked at me. I gave him a look so he knew what I was thinking.
You really didn't think you would walk into that?
I noticed Blitz telling Fizzarolli something. I realized I could distract everyone long enough for them to plan.
"You know these two are just some fucking weirdos! You know I wouldn't do that in front of you!" He said. Suddenly he turned around and we all noticed Fizzarolli singing and dancing. I slowly backed away and signalled Blitz to come toward me. Fizzarolli grabbed Blitz as I started stacking up boxes for him to climb. When he did he helped my up.
"This way!" I whispered. Running along the long metal bar. We went over to the window.
"I need something to break through it." Blitz said.
"Grabbing it now!" I said, jumping down. I found a blowtorch and snatched it. Quickly handing it to him. I quickly backed down as Fizzarolli turned everyone's attention to Blitz.
"I'mma need another sixty seconds!" Blitz shouted. Still attempting to use the blowtorch, I jumped down, I ripped open boxes, searching through all of them but I was mainly finding junk.
Ugh! Stupid Crimson! How are you a mob boss and you don't have any good weapons!?
That's when I noticed the box beside me. I grabbed it and ripped it open. I saw it was filled to the brim with explosives. I grabbing it and began to climb up the boxes but my foot slipped. I covered my mouth as much as I could to keep myself from whimpering, I felt my ankle suddenly sprain. I shook my head and ignored it and jumped up.
"Blitz!" I said, he held his hand out and I grabbed it. He helped me up as I placed down the boxes of explosives.
"What happened?" He asked, noticing my swollen ankle.
"Don't worry about it, just get you and Fizzarolli out of here, if you get all of these stick on the window and explode them it should be strong enough. Just.. Stay safe Blitzo- I mean.. Blitz.." I said. Blitz hugged me. I hugged him back before he went back to setting up the escape route and I jumped down the boxes. I tried landing nicely but my ankle was in too much pain. I flopped on the floor and winced. I got up and went over to my dad just as everyone started firing at Blitz. Fizzarolli then suddenly punched him in the face, then he looked over at the window and realized what was about to happen.
"HOCO GO OUTSIDE QUICKLY!" He demanded. I didn't bother to object or disobey, through all the pain in my ankle I ran outside and as soon as I turned around I noticed the building had collapsed, my heart sank.
"DAD!" I shouted, I began to walk toward it until I noticed him crawl out of the rubble. I sighed in relief and almost ran over to give him a hug until I noticed him grab his rope and get Fizzarolli and held his gun to his face. Blitz jumped on the car, holding his gun.
"Get... Your... FUCKING shit-stain claws off him!" Blitz shouted. The way my dad laugh made me run by him and hide behind a barrel.
"You think I'm just gon' let you get away after all this? I'm through losin' these fights! This worthless little pet reeks of his over-bloated master... I'll at least enjoy gettin' of im'!" He said with a grin.
"Okay... Is it bad that I'm getting hard?" Fizzarolli asked.
Gross..
"SHUT THE FUCK UP! WHY'S IT ALWAYS A SEX THING?" My dad shouted. Suddenly Blitz aimed at some gasoline cans and shot them. Making them explode, my dad rolled around trying to put out the fire before running away, so I knew he was safe and sound.
"FIIIIZZZZZ!!!!" I suddenly heard Blitz shout. I looked over and saw Fizzarolli stuck in a circle of fire. I looked around then noticed the barrel.
"BLITZO!!" I shouted, knowing he would look over, I kicked the barrel, it was so heavy I'm pretty sure I fractured my leg. I yelped in pain as Blitz jumped on the barrel and used it. I winced before following him. He jumped on a car then ran along a crane. He tried using his tail but he still couldn't reach, I grabbed his tail and lowered him down, once he grabbed Fizzarolli I pulled them both up but didn't realized I place my footing wrong, my entire leg slipped and I felt it snap. I held my mouth shut as my eyes filled with tears of pain. Clearly Fizzarolli and Blitz were distracted by their own thing.
"YOU BLEW ME UP AGAIN, YOU FUCKIN' PRICK!" Fizzarolli shouted.
"I did... But this time, I stuck around." Blitz said. Fizzarolli shoved him away, looking away before quickly hugging him and smiling. Blitz hugged him back.
"Wooooould iiit.... Fuck up the moment if we made out right now?" He asked. Fizzarolli pulled away, giving him a look. Then he looked over at me.
"Blitzo! Hoco's leg!" He said, Blitz turned around and looked at me, his face going into shock.
"What the fuck happened!?" He asked me.
"I-I twisted my leg the wrong way helping you two I'm fine!" I said. Fizzarolli grabbed me with his mechanical arms. "H-Hey easy!" I said as he carried me to the car. Blitz quickly got in and drove.
"I think Ozzie could help her, or at least get her some urgent care in the Sloth Ring." Fizzarolli said.
"Okay, well stop at the Lust Ring first." Blitz said. I winced in pain. My eyes closed and when I opened them suddenly we stopped. Fizzarolli picked me up. My vision went black again. I opened my eyes when I felt myself being laid on the floor.
"Stay here." I heard Fizzarolli say.
Not like I can go anywhere.
After a bit I heard a loud shout.
"OH MY SATAN!!!" And Fizzarolli walked out in Asmodeus's arms.
"I'm so glad you're okay, babe... You ain't never leaving the palace without protection again." Asmodeus said before looking at me.
"Ozzie! This is the daughter of the one that kidnapped me-" Fizzarolli said
THAT'S THE WRONG THING TO SAY!!
"WHAT!?" He shouted. I winced and flinched.
"But! But! She's also the one that saved me." Fizzarolli said. "Over all odds, she decided to save me over working with her dad."
"I see.." He said before noticing my leg. "What happened to her leg?" He asked.
"That was one of the results of her saving me." Fizzarolli explained.
"Oh my.." Asmodeus kneeled down to me. I lowered my ears in fear. "Thank you. For saving Fizzarolli. Now. Let me help you." He said before picking me up by the scruff on the back of my neck. He carried me and talked to Fizzarolli. He gently placed me down on a table, he helped Fizzarolli first, then he bandaged up my leg and gave me a couple of crutches. I smiled at him and Fizzarolli smiled at me. I got up using the crutches.
"Thank you for saving me, Hoco-Loco." He said teasingly. I chuckled.
"Anytime. Fizzy-Wizzy." I said before leaving the room.
"So uh.. I'll see you around?" He asked.
"I can escort you to the Greed Ring when you need." I said before nodded at Asmodeus as a thank you before leaving. I left the building and began to make my way back to Wrath.
