Chapter 13 - Snow Warfare
Here's the next chapter, enjoy!
Several explosions could be heard coming in the distance. Agness was running from several energy blasts being fired at her by Void. Agness shot a few bullets at Void, who dodged them with ease. When he got closer to Agness, she jumped up and away.
Void growled and summoned several endless chains from his pages. He spun and fired three shots of energy straight at Agness. She dodged them all until a chain smacked her leg. Where she fell to the ground, exhausted.
Agness: Is this book's power endless?!
Agness looked around, it was just her and Void. His power was just too powerful. It was becoming clear, Void was much stronger than he appeared to be. Agness started to feel dizzy and felt her knees giving way. Her leg was injured and she could not stand.
Void turned around and floated towards her. Launching an energy spear tried She tried to dodge, but couldn't. Her legs gave out and she fell. Luckily, the spear flew right over her when she fell.
Agness: Oh holy spirit. Lend me your aid. Heal my wounds with your holy light!
Agness was then bathed in light coming from the sky. Void looked up in confusion as to where it was coming from. Agness' wounds were healed by the light. Agness then took aim at Void with her sniper rifle.
Agness: Die you monster!
Agness opened fire on Void, who created a shield and blocked the bullets. Void flew away and created several energy swords and launched them at Agness. She dodged them, but as she did she felt one hit her leg. Agness hid in the snow-covered forest while Void continued to fire off energy swords.
Agness kept firing on Void, but she wasn't getting any closer to hitting him. He was flying too high up in the air to be hit by her gunshots. The energy swords were also fired with a high velocity. Agness fired off several bursts of bullets at Void, but they did not hit him. Agness then fled from her cover when a sword punched through the tree she was behind.
Agness ran through the snow while Void continued to fire energy swords at her. The sword flew out of his hand and shattered into a bunch of smaller swords. He started creating several swords in the air around him. He launched them at Agness and she dodged them. Then he fired a sword straight at her. She dodged it and ran back into the forest.
Agness: You can't catch me, monster!
Void stopped creating swords and made two hands out of energy. Before burying them in the ground. Then those same hands burst from the ground, grabbing onto Agness' legs. Void chuckled mockingly before throwing Agness into the air. While in the air, Void fired several energy blasts at her. Agness twirled her body in order to evade them, but her rifle was knocked out of her grasp. It went crashing into the snow, breaking to pieces upon hitting the ground. Agness pulled out a pistol and returned fire, but her bullets were blocked by Void's shields. She landed back on the ground and felt two sharp pains in her back. Her bulletproof vest had been pierced by Void's energy spears.
Agness: This monster is too strong!
Void made a hand before burying it below the snow. She felt the ground rise up and the hand pierce through the earth. It then grabbed onto Agness' body, leaving behind two large gashes. The light returned and the wound closed up just as Agness was being hoisted back into the air.
Agness: I'm not dead yet!
Agness threw her now empty pistol and pulled out her throwing knives. She aimed at Void and flung them straight at him. They flew in his direction and embedded themselves into his book cover. But there was no visible damage to him. Agness then cloaked her knives in a holy light and fired at Void.
She aimed at his hands and when the knives came within his reach, the light increased the blades' speed. The knives went straight through Void's hands and book cover. With that, Void let go of Agness. The holes left behind where the knives had gone through were large, but Void had
Agness: What's next?
Void readied his energy spear to launch it at Agness. He started to create the spear as he turned around towards her. He started to turn around with the spear in his hand, which meant he was going to launch it at her.Agness jumped on his back cover with both feet and wrapped her legs around him. She used all her weight to push him down to the snowy ground. Void then released a massive. It was too close to Agness' head.
Agness: Oh holy spirit! Lend me your power to banish this-
Linc: Silence...
Agness' voice suddenly disappeared, she moved her mouth but no words came from her attempts to speak. Then Millie's hammer came flying out of nowhere, Agness dodged it but electricity flowed from it and Agness was struck by lightning.
Agness: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Agness found her voice had returned but before she could do anything, several dozens of wires entrapped her. Void went to shoot a spear at her, but Linc closed him shut and prevented him from doing anything.
Linc: There you are.
Void growled.
Moxxie: What do you mean, "how did we find you?" We could hear the
Agness: So the filthy accursed mutt has two disgusting imps as his-
Moxxie created a spear out of wires and then threw it at the nun, stabbing her near the heart, and binding her heart in wires.
Agness: GUAAGGHH!!!
Moxxie: Talk about my son or my wife like that again and I'll shred your heart.
Millie: Honestly, if you didn't. I would've.
Agness: It doesn't... matter... You disgusting demons... Will be eradicated-
Moxxie then clenched his fist and the wires surrounding her heart tightened, shredding her heart into pieces.
Agness spat up blood as she was left to flop against the ground. Void then shot a spear from his pages, pinning Agness to a tree.
Moxxie: I warned you.
Millie: What was with that chick?
Void grumbled.
Linc: Void says that he found a bunch of Church humans trying to get into the barrier.
Moxxie: Church humans... I'm guessing they were here to try and take out Stolas. We should go and tell them.
Linc: Let's head back then.
The hellspawn family turned back to the manor while Agness' corpse remained.
*****
Back at Stolas' manor. Octavia, Loona, and Linc were packing away books and other items. Void, Blitzo, and Mayberry were packing away furniture into Noir.
Moxxie: That's the gist of it.
Stolas: I see. Truly poor timing. Normally I could just pretend to be human and trike the humans, but with Void's actions... It seems I'll have to abandon this place.
Octavia: Man. I really liked this place.
Stolas: Oh don't worry, Via. We can always rebuild another one elsewhere. Best leave this one with some flare!
Blitzo: So long as I'm not fucking you're ass in that one way where-
Octavia: TMI!!
Octavia stuffed a box she was carrying into Noir as she yelled at Blitzo. Loona had already covered Linc's ears in case he wasn't stopped from speaking.
Stolas: I was thinking more of a literal flare!
The demons and Sinner stepped out of the building and with a snap of his finger, Stolas set the building ablaze.
Stolas: There were many fond memories of mind in there, but I will be happy to part with them for more memories in the future.
Moxxie: Quiet poetic.
Loona opened a portal and the I.M.P. and Goetias returned to Hell. However, back at Agness' dead body, two figures took her down.
*****
In a Church, Agness' deceased body was lying across a coffin, she had been clean of blood and well dressed in new attire. Several priests and nuns were gathered with candles. The Third and Second of the Four Maidens, Pegathy and Raechell were also there, standing by the podium, to mourn the loss of one of the Four Maidens of the Holy Church. They sighed with grief and raised their staves as the Pope took the podium.
Pope: This is a sad and tragic occasion. The Fourth Maiden of the Four Maidens has passed on. Killed in the line of holy duty that we all serve in the name of the lord. Killed by the hands of the strange hellhound that is neither from Hell nor is it from Heaven. But where this hellhound is from matters not. It stands on the side of Hell, protecting the demons that encroach on our world. With the death of one of the Four Maidens, the Holy Church must increase its work to purge the demon scum that encroaches upon our world, and that includes this Hellhound that murdered the Fourth Maiden. I, the Pope of this Holy Church, say we are to look for this Hellhound that killed the Third Maiden. And I say we will use every means to route out this demon scum. If we must, we will sacrifice the life of a Maiden to find this Hellhound!
The Priests and Nuns all pulled out Candle Snuffers.
Everyone: I pray that you will cleanse me, strengthen me, guide me, so that in all ways my life may be lived as you would have it lived, without cowardice and for you alone. Show me how to live in true humility, true contrition, and true love. Our Father, Who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom comes, Thy Will be done, On earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day, our daily bread, And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. In the name of the Father. In the name of the Son. In name of the Holy Spirit. We will purge all demons from your holy kingdom!
The Priests and Nuns snuffed out the candle lights.
*****
Back in Hell. Linc was making dinner when he felt a sneeze coming.
Linc: Achoo!
Loona: Damn you.
Mayberry: What?
Blitzo: We don't say bless you down here.
Mayberry: Why? ... Oh right, this is hell.
To Be Continued...
That's all for now. I hope you enjoyed it! I'll also be uploading a chapter of Random Moments among the I.M.P. office.
