Loo Loo Land

Many years ago

It was night time at the Goetia palace, and by the master bedroom resides Princess Stella and her husband - Prince Stolas. The two were sleeping undisturbedly, that is until a young voice screamed out throughout the palace.

"Mummy! Daddyyyy!"

Hearing the voice, Stella roused from her sleep, turning her head to her husband. "Stolas, Octavia's calling for us." She said, sleepily

Stolas grumbled in annoyance, "You get up..."

Stella sat up and let out a sigh before getting up the bed. She grabbed her red coat from the cloth stand as she made her way to her Octavia's bedroom. Opening the door, she saw that Octavia is hiding beneath her star blanket, shaking in fear.

"Octavia? What's wrong, my owlet?" Stella asked.

Hearing her mother's voice, the little owl goetia peeked her head out of her blanket. "M-mummy? Mummy!" Octavia climbs out of her bed and ran towards her mother, giving her a hug. "I had a dream! A really bad dream!" She sobbed.

Stella happily hoists her up into her arms and comfort her. "A bad dream, you say? It's a nightmare, my dear." Stella corrected her while wiping her tears away, getting a good look on her owlet.

Octavia has her short hair with light grey and white tips, a mix from her and her husband. She is wearing her usual pink dress with white stars on it and with puffy white sleeves, her favorite dress out of all.

"I was looking all over the palace, and... I couldn't find you anywhere!" Octavia explained. "You weren't there!" Octavia hugs her mother while sobbing again.

Stella begin to rub her back comfortingly. "There there, Via, it's okay. You're okay." Stella headed towards Octavia's bed and sat down. "When you're scared, alone, and don't know where I am, you must remember...No matter what happens, I will never be far away from my special little starfire." Stella then boops her nose, earning a small giggle from the owlet.

"Now, how about I sing you a little lullaby?" She suggested.

"O-Okay." Octavia nodded.

Stella smiled as she starts to sing;

It always feels so quiet in the dark

It always feels so stark

How silence grows under the moon

Constellations gone so soon

I used to think that I was bold

I used to think love would be fun

Now all my stories have been told - except for one...

Stella then takes out the Grimoire she kept in a pocket of her coat as she summons a portal above their heads, allowing Octavia could see the beautiful starry environment of space.

As the stars start to align

I hope you take it as a sign, that you'll be okay

Everything will be okay

And if the Seven Rings collapse

Although the day could be my last, You will be okay.

When I'm gone you'll be okay...

Stella hears a soft yawn coming from Octavia as she is drifting off to sleep, her head snuggled on her chest, making the swan goetia demon to smile. She close up the portal and gently lay her down on the bed.

And when Creation goes to die

You can find me in the sky

Upon the last day

And you will be okay...

Stella finished singing her lullaby, then covered Octavia with her blanket. She gave her daughter a loving kiss on the forehead and whispered, "Sleep well, my owlet," before closing the door, leaving her alone again.

Octavia smiled in her sleep. She was glad to have such a loving mother and also a father. She hoped that nothing would go wrong between her and them as they continue to have a normal life.

Oh how naive she was...

Present time

Octavia, now a 17 year old teenager (in hell years), was rudely woken up by the sound of objects breaking and arguing coming from her parents.

"I cannot believe that you slept with a fucking Hellhound, in our bed of all places!" Stolas voice boomed around the palace, even making it to her room. Octavia groaned and sat up on the bed while rubbing her eyes.

"I wasn't expecting it to go that quick! I didn't have the time to go to a motel!" Stella argued.

"A motel?! Like a fucking plebeian?!"

Octavia let out a sigh before getting up and looking at the time on her phone. 8 AM. She took a deep breath before muttering to herself, "Everything is gonna be okay..."

Taking a few minutes to wash her face and get herself dressed, Octavia walked out of her bedroom with her ears plugged in with earphones, listening to music on her phone. She hoped the music would drown out the screaming and arguing, but she can still hear it.

Making her way to the kitchen, she then spot her parents arguing, with Stolas feeling more pissed off than usual as his eyes are glowing red. She couldn't blame him. When word got out that her mother was caught fucking a hellhound in bed, she felt shocked that her mother would do such a thing. Octavia tries her best to hide her current emotion of the whole situation as she walked up to the room.

She then spots a fourth figure in the room, that being one of the hellhound maids tending to one of her mother's carnivorous plants by giving it water. The maid has a wolf-like appearance with grey hair while having a magenta streak on it.

The maid looked concerned on the situation, especially when Stolas then pointed at her, "You want to fuck this one too??"

"No! Of course not!" Stella exclaimed.

"You are a goddamn embarrassment! I'm not spending another moment looking at your pathetic HELLHOUND-LICKING FACE!" Stolas stomps out of the room in anger. Stella let out an exasperated sigh before noticing Octavia entering the room and going to the table with a pack of cereal and a cup of coffee.

"Good morning, Octavia!" she greeted her daughter with a smile. "Did you sleep well, my owlet?"

Octavia took a sip from her coffee. "Hey, mom. I slept well." Octavia responded with a smile.

"Good to know." Stella then went to the refrigerator before noticing that Octavia was listening to something. "What's that you're listening to?" she asked before opening the fridge to grab a zebra steak.

"This song is called 'Everything is Just Fine.' It's by Screw You Mom." Stella frowned, thinking it was a hurtful remark, which Octavia quickly corrected, "It's a band name."

"Oh...how charming! Although they need to change the name of it," Stella said before going to the carnivorous plant tended by the hellhound maid. The latter stepped aside as Stella threw the zebra steak, and the plant immediately caught and ate it. The Princess then petted it lovingly.

Octavia then asked, "So...are you two done screaming for the day?"

"Well," Stella began, but she was cut off by a booming scream from Stolas somewhere in the palace, making the potted plants in the hallway shatter. The hellhound maid next to her whimpered in fear from his wrath.

Seeing that it's best not to talk about it, Stella decided to change the subject. "You know what I haven't done in a long, loooong time? I haven't taken you to your favorite place in all of Hell!" Stella then walked over next to Octavia and suggested, "Why don't we go to Loo Loo Land?"

Octavia looked surprised. "Uh, I'm not five anymore, Mum."

"Oh, that doesn't matter. You always were so happy when I took you to Loo Loo Land." Stella then gestured to the picture beside them. It contained her, Octavia, and Stolas having a good time in Loo Loo Land, although Stolas seemed to have a forced smile on his face. "What do you say we go there again, have a day, just the two of us?"

"Well, I-"

"Excellent! Stella declared, "Atleast it's better than staying at home, wouldn't you say? And even better than listening to him yelling all the time..." Stella muttered at the last part, regarding her husband.

"Now, I'll arrange our security." Stella then clapped her hands as the hellhound maid approached to her with an old phone on a plate. "Thank you, Solar." She thanked the Hellhound before grabbing the phone.

"We need security for a theme park?" Octavia questioned.

"We are rich, and we're hot. People want our money and our bodies." Stella stated.

"Our money, maybe..." Octavia muttered before going to the box of cereal and grabbing a handful of them to her mouth.

"Speak for yourself, princess." Stella said before dialing up the number for their security, "Now... I'm calling the only woman who can f*** me!"

"...What?" Octavia look back at Stella with a disgusted look on her face as she drops the cereal in her hand. Even Solar is also disgusted by it.

"Who can protect me! Us!" Stella backpedaled, "Being part of the Goetia family is rather valuable, you know."

Meanwhile in I.M.P

In her office, Loona was by the table playing with two puppets that are crude representations of Millie and Moxxie made out of office supplies. Between them is a picture frame of Loona looking seductively with a flower between his teeth as she's wearing a grey robe that she pulled down off her shoulders.

Loona moved the Moxxie puppet to the picture, impersonating his voice, "Oh, Loona! You're such a good boss!"

She then moved the Millie puppet to the picture, also impersonating her voice, "Yeah, I really want you, Ma'am!"

"Me too!"

"Well then, let's three way~" Loona said in her regular voice as she lower the two puppets down to the privates, looking momentarily pleasured. Her short fun was then interrupted by the sound of her phone ringing.

Loona sighed and answered the call, angrily. "WHAT?!" While waiting for the response, she took the time to drink her cup of coffee."

"Why, hello, my big tittied Loony~" Stella responded, lustfully, making Loona to spit out her coffee in sheer surprise.

The Goetia Palace

Hearing what her mother said, Octavia also spit out her coffee in sheer surprise.

"WHAT-"

"THE-"

"FUCK-"

"MOM?!"

"Language, everyone!" Stella scolds before going back to the phone, "I have a special request."

Loona was heard letting out a groan, "Look, I just had a chemical peel. So, you'll have to find someone else's face to plant that feathered ass."

"It's for my daughter."

"Ah. Well, make sure she washes it."

"NO! No, no-no-no." Stela quickly clarified, "I'm taking my daughter to Loo Loo Land, and I was hoping you and your brave little Imps would accompany us."

"We're assassins, not bodyguards, okay? Don't invite us to shit unless someone's gonna die."

"I'll pay you~" Stella offered.

"Pay me what?"

"Moneyyy~"

"DONE!"

Back at I.M.P.

After hearing Stella's offer, Loona ended the call and slamming the phone down at the table with an excited expression on her face, until she realized she had just broken another phone of hers. But that doesn't matter now as she grabbed a megaphone under the table.

"M&Ms, get in here! We're goin' to Loo Loo Land!" Loona called out to them.

Millie opens the door with a raised brow, "Loo Loo Land?"

Moxxie then smashes his head straight to the door's glass with an excited look, "Loo Loo Land?!"

"Loo Loo Land!" Loona proclaimed.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP!" Blitzo yelled from the desk.

____________________

At the Greed Ring

The company's van pulled to a stop infront of Mammon's Loo Loo Land by the parking spot. Millie exits the van and opened the slide door of it where Stella had been sitting. The taller goetia got out of the van as she is now wearing white shirt with the picture of an apple by the center along with red shorts.

Octavia also got out of the van, not looking entirely excited of their trip to the place. She then sees her mother putting on a big apple hat with a cute face on it as she turned to her daughter and gestures her to come along. Octavia had to give her a forced smile before catching up with her.

As the group entered the place through the front gate, Loona is walking beside Stella and tells her, "Now, remember: this is work and work only. Me and my crew are not here to satisfy your perverted bird needs, alright?"

Meanwhile, Octavia looked around the place in disgust. Sure she was happy here before, but she was little and naive. Now that she has grown, she begin to notice how poor the conditions are.

She decides to speak up, "Hey...Mom...Do we have to-"

"Okay, yeah. Hold on right there, dude." Loona interjected before turning to Stella with an angry look, "If you try to fuck my furry ass in this park, I swear-"

Stella cut her off as she leaned down on her level, saying, "Oh, you are so cute when you are serious~" Stella then cups one of her cheeks, lovingly.

Octavia is not enjoying the view, mostly the fact that the hellhound her mother loves is about a few years older than her, which makes it really weird for her. "I think I'm gonna be sick..."

"Oh crap, I knew today would be a lot!" Millie exclaimed as she begins to fish around her fanny pack. "What do you need? Anti-acids? Ibuprofen? Morphine?" Millie showed her various medicine, the last part being needles with glowing acid green substances.

"That was figurative, grandma." Octavia stated before walking away.

"Oh, right..." Millie chuckled sheepishly before throwing the morphine away, unbeknownst that some of them landed in a baby's carriage. "I'm not that old..." She muttered from Octavia's comment.

Meanwhile, Moxxie looked around the place in glee. "Woooow! I can't believe we're in loo loo land!"

"It certainly hasn't changed a bit." Millie remarked.

"You've been here before?" Moxxie asks.

"Ah did once when I was a little, but after that I don't want to come here again."

Moxxie raised an eyebrow at her, "Why's that? This place looks fun!"

"Well, I've learned that theme parks have disturbed me. Look at Big Woobly over there." Millie gestured toward a hideously malformed animatronic dinosaur, which opened its mouth and let out a terrifying, demonic shriek.

"Deeply upsetting," Millie remarked. "And you know what's more disturbing? Those damn mascots!"

On cue, a giant apple mascot appeared behind them. "Well, hey there!" Millie screamed and jumped in terror into Moxxie's arms.

The mascot then introduces herself, "I'm Loo Loo! Welcome to Loo Loo Land! If y'all get hurt here, just try and sue us!"

Stella gasped, "Look, Via! It's Loo Loo!"

"Uh... Hi?" Octavia greeted.

The mascot turned around, causing one of its eyes to fall out. "Hello to you too, little girl!"

Octavia recoiled in disgust. "I... have a question."

"Well, ask away, little girlie! A-hyuk a-hyuk a-hyuk!"

The mascot's laugh earned another look of disgust from Octavia as she asked, "Is it true this park is just a really shameless spin-off of Lucifer's far more popular Lu Lu World?" Being older, Octavia not only acknowledged how horrible the conditions were in this place, but she also learned the reality of it.

The mascot stayed silent for a moment. "Uhh... no?"

But Octavia already knew the answer as she sighed and shook her head, "I can't believe this corporate shame..."

Stella chuckled nervously, seeing that her daughter isn't enjoying the trip as she imagined. "Um...w-why don't we check for other rides?"

"I guess..." Octavia replied as Stella grabs her hand and lead her away from the mascot.

"That chick is weird, huh?" The mascot remarked.

"Eh, wait till her mom tries to diddle your holes." Loona replied before walking off with them.

The mascot turned to the M&Ms, asking, "What does that mean?"

"Don't talk to me!" Millie exclaimed, stepping forward to the mascot and pointing a finger onto her, "Ah know you're a perverted whore under there!" Millie then leaves with Moxxie following her.

"Yeah..." The mascot said, dejectedly.

The Imp couple headed down a pathway as Moxxie took the time to look around the place with a joyous expression. Millie took notice of it and said, "You seem to already be liking this place, given this is your first time."

"Of course! I've been dreaming of going to this place since I was little. Unfortunately, my parents... don't have the money for it," Moxxie replied, with Millie not noticing the pause when he mentioned his parents, though she understood the money part.

"Yeah, my parents would bring me and the siblings here when they could swing it, but the price is really criminal here," Millie stated as she approached the window of a gift shop where novelty cups and stuffed apples were for sale. The cups appeared to cost around 29 souls each. "I mean, that much for a novelty cup that you use one time?"

"Well, it's Loo Loo Land after all!" Moxxie said enthusiastically.

Loona walked up to the two as she is wearing a hat while drinking a beverage from the novelty cup that Millie mentioned. "Listen to your hubby, Mills," she said, nudging her drink at her.

She then gestured at the two Goetia birds, Stella showing Octavia the white shirt she was wearing while Octavia wasn't too keen on wearing it. "How 'bout I take the first watch while you two have a little...fun?" Loona said the last part with a wink.

Moxxie squealed in excitement as he grabbed his wife's hand and ran off, "Let's go do one of the rides!"

"Alright, which one do you wanna do?" Millie asked.

"That one!" Moxxie pointed at a roller coaster called 'The Lawsuit'. A lone imp was riding the coaster as it suddenly plunged off a sheer 90-degree drop at an incredible speed. The rider hung on for dear life as the coaster caught on fire before plunging into a tunnel in the ground.

Millie gazed in shock, "Aw crap..."

_________________

Elsewhere, Stella and Octavia continued to walk along the path while Loona patrolled and took positions all over the area with her MK14 EBR in the ready. She even had to go behind a counter and spilled a few cups filled with drinks with the occupants and the bartender glaring at her for doing so.

Meanwhile, a group of imps creeped up behind the booths with their weapons ready as they're itching to kill the two Goetias. They then scurry away when Loona looked into their direction.

"You know, it's quite thrilling to see you on the job, Loony~" Stella flirts with her, stroking her fur.

Loona snatch her hand away, "Save it bitch, I'm working."

"I think you both need to get a room..." Octavia suggested.

"Hey, I'm not a day hooker! Loona exclaimed at her, which gain the attention of an imp woman walking with her son while carrying her baby on her back. She glares at the Hellhound before walking away. "What? I just said I'm not one, prude!" Loona flips her off.

Stella let out a gasp, pulling Octavia to her by her shoulder "Oh! Look Via!" She points to a circus tent ahead of them. "You used to cry such tears of joy at this show!"

Octavia's expression changed to a panicked one upon recognizing the tent her mother was pointing at. "Oh, no..."

_________________

Flashback, years ago

A young Octavia was inside the tent, a horrified expression on her face. She attempted to leave, but due to her position in the front row, the other demon kids pushed her forward, compelling her to get a closer look at what was happening on stage.

In front of her stood an Imp hybrid animatronic with pupil-less eyes and a menacing smile, resembling a Jester. The animatronic wore a jester cap adorned with bells, a lime ruffle, a black collar with bells, a happy face on one shoulder, and a sad face on the other. Its body featured red and dark teal stripes with a lime trim at the bottom, along with white hearts.

The hybrid imp animatronic positioned itself in front of the stage, behind the other animatronics, with a sign below it reading "Striker N' Friends." Known as Striker, the animatronic began to laugh evilly, bending down towards Octavia, its laughter deepening. The sight terrified Octavia to the point of tears.

Meanwhile, a lone hellhound was situated far away from the show, tending to the food cart while dressed and painted as a clown. The hellhound was Loona, and she fixed her eyes on the robot Striker with a scowl on her face.

________________

Cut to the present

"I hate that fucking clown..." Loona and Octavia said in unison.

"Oh, Loony~" Stella called out to the hellhound as she turned around to see the goetia princess getting carried by several imps while the goetia remained unconcerned of the whole thing. One of the imps then puts a sack on her head as she continued, "I need my bodyguard please~"

Another imp then tries to skewer her with a pitchfork, but Loona quickly shot the imp to the chest, killing him. The rest of the imp assassins drop Stella and quickly flee the scene.

Octavia had already entered the tent and found a seat where her face remains a tired expression. She is trying her best to keep a smile, but all that is a happening is not helping her.

Loona catches up to Octavia and was able to carry the bagged Stella all the way next to her seat. She set her down before heading off patrolling again.

"It's kind of dark in here, Loony." Stella said, her voice muffled from the sack. Octavia let out a sigh before ripping the sack off of her mother's head.

"Hey-hey-hey-hey-heyyyy, Implings!" A voice called out as the Imp hybrid animatronic came out of the curtains. "It's me, the robotic Striker! Shipped from Big Ozzie's factory to bring you a wonderful show celebrating Loo Loo Land, spelled with Os, to avoid lawsuits!"

Hearing that, Octavia frowned and rolled her eyes, further proof that this place is such a rip-off of Lu Lu world. Doesn't help the fact how the robot had a sign of Lu Lu and written with Loo Loo in addition of the text 'the better one'.

"H-H-H-H-H-Hit it!" Robo Striker snapped its fingers as the stage lights turns on along with the curtains opening, revealing the rest of the animatronics with the robot, whom all looked very terrifying. Robo Striker begins the song;

Loo Loo Land, Loo Loo Land!

Everybody sing along with the Loo Loo Band!

Every boy, every girl, every woman, every man loves Loo Loo Land!

Loo Loo Land, Loo Loo Land!

Everything is beautiful in Loo Loo Land!

Ugly children holding hands in Loo Loo Land!

Everybody's friendly, and nobody is mean.

No copyright infringements ever seen...

I have a dream

(He has a dream)

I'm here to tell

(He's here to tell)

About a magical fantastic place, called Loo Loo Land!

Throughout the song, Octavia had to endure it all with her eye starting to twitch.

______________

Outside of the tent

Millie and Moxxie had finished riding 'The Lawsuit' but had to take a short break when Millie had thrown up during the ride, even hitting an imp family who glared at her when they exited the ride as they're covered in her puke.

After spending a minute of Millie throwing up her lunch, the two continued around the place. They walk around the game booths when they were addressed by one of the vendors, "Hello, hello! Step right up and win a thing!" The two turned to their left to see a female imp carnie in her own booth that looks to be one of those target shooting games, the said targets being Loo Loo's butt.

Millie and Moxxie walk over to the booth. "Look, Millie. That must be the thing." Millie looked to where her husband was pointing and saw that the thing looks to be a purple duck plushie while having imp horns and wearing pink overalls.

"Oh my stars..." Millie uttered with her mouth agape.

Moxxie took notice of it. "Oh, you like that thing?"

"Yes!" Millie exclaimed. "I don't really know what that thing is but I want it!"

Moxxie giggled at her sudden enthusiasm, "Looks like you're really getting in to the Loo Loo Land spirit! Here, Millie, let me win it for you."

"No, Mox! If I'm gonna get that thing, it is gonna be me!" Millie declared.

"Ya sure?" Moxxie inquired, "I am an expert in firearms so hitting these targets would be a walk in the park for me."

"I'm sure." Millie then walk up to the carnie and hand her some souls for the game, "One game, please."

The carnie imp handed her the toy gun with her tail. Millie prepared the gun and aimed at the target. She then fired but the cork didn't hit the target, instead hitting the apple's forehead.

"Ohhhh! Strike one, missy!" The Carnie said.

"T-That was just a blunder!" Millie exclaimed, taking out a bunch of more money for another round. She fired another shot but it still didn't hit the target as it hit the legs. "The heaven's wrong with this thing?!"

"Maybe you just suck." The Carnie stated with a smirk. Millie glared at her in anger as she fish out another bill. This time she carefully focus on the target. Breathing in, she aimed before firing the cork as it then hit the target.

"YES! I did it!" Millie cheered with Moxxie clapping for her victory.

"That's strike three! Ya still failed, missy." Both Millie and Moxxie turn back to the carnie, the former having a confused look.

"But I hit it!" Millie told her, "I saw it with my own two eyes!"

"Hmmm, I don't know what to tell ya, sister. The target, see? It didn't go down." The Carnie explained, "So yeah, you still ain't getting the thing~"

Millie begin to fume in anger as if she was a bull. She then slaps another bill to the counter, declaring, "AH WILL GET THAT THING!"

____________

Back at the tent

The song is still going on with Stella gleefully clapping into the music while Octavia thrown her head back in torment while covering her ears.

Everybody sing along with the Loo Loo band!

Ev'ry boy, ev'ry girl, ev'ry woman, ev'ry man loves Loo Loo Laaaaaaand!

It finally ends with Robot Striker sliding to the front on his knees as he cackled maniacally while a small pyrotechnic display happened with the bear animatronic faceplants onto the stage and falling to pieces.

Despite that, Stella clapped and cheered for the show, "Ah hohohoho ho ho ho ho ho, how delightful!"

Behind her, another imp assassin tried to backstab her with a knife but was then shot to the head. The ensuing shot caused all the imp children to flee the tent, screaming.

Stella turned around, seeing the dead assassin and Loona positioned by the gallery behind the seats. "Oh, my! What aim you have, Loony~" She complimented with a flirtatious look.

"I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE!" Octavia shouted, which surprised Stella before she storms out of the tent.

"Octavia? Octavia, wait!" Stella tries to catch up to her with a worried look on her face before exiting the tent aswell. Seeing the two goetias leaving, Loona goes to chase after them.

However, Robo Striker spotted her in the distance. "Oh! Is that Luna my sensors spot up there?"

Loona stopped and clarified to him, "It's Loona with two O's now!"

"That...doesn't really change anything..." Robo Striker said, raising an eyebrow, "A-A-Anywho, long time no see ol' chum! I bet the kiddies are still running away from you and your lazy ass jokes, huh?" He starts to laugh.

"Bitch, I make more money killing people than you do being a cheap-ass robo ripoff of an overrated sellout JESTER!" Loona argued while removing her shades to the ground.

"Oohoohoo! Someone's salty! Real or not, though, people lo-o-ove me!" Robo striker stated before inquiring, "Does anybody love you... Luna?" He said with a low demonic voice on the last part.

"No. But, I'm really good with guns now." Loona said before pulling out her MK14 EBR with a smirk as she slams a new mag in. "Dance, bitch!"

Loona fired at Robo Striker in full auto, but he dodged it by cartwheeling out of the stage, while the rest of the animatronics got shot. His cartwheel eventually evolved into him spinning like a wheel before rolling up to the stairs where Loona was. He coiled himself around the hellhound like a snake before using the momentum to launch her through the top of the tent.

"OH SHIIIIT..."

Outside the tent, a female imp wearing a white regency shirt rolled a cart of lit torches by the tent. "Torches, I say, I say! Get your inconvenient torches here!" she offered while holding one in her hand. Suddenly, Loona dropped onto the cart and onto the seller. "OWW, I say, Oww!"

The torches scattered everywhere, with one of them reaching the tent, igniting it. The fire quickly spread throughout the tent, lighting everything ablaze. The animatronics inside tried to escape but were rapidly melting away from the fire. However, Robo Striker remained intact despite being covered by the flames as he laughed again like a maniac.

______________

Back at the game booths, the carnie now holds about 600 souls, as Millie spent them on the game in an attempt to win the Thing. Despite numerous tries, she couldn't seem to bring the target down.

"Wow! Man, you're really starting to make this sad," the carnie remarked while holding the money together, causing Millie to seethe in anger. "Y'know, if you suck, you suck! Guess you won't win yourself that prize..."

Millie clenched her fist, itching to tear the carnie apart. Moxxie then spoke up, "Hun, why don't you let me try?"

Millie sighed and offered the gun to her husband. Moxxie took aim and fired at the target, hitting a bullseye but not enough to bring it down. However, the carnie grinned mischievously as she pressed a foot pedal in the booth, causing the target to fall.

"Ohhhh, look at that! What a lucky shot, baby," she said, as Moxxie clapped at himself in victory, while Millie reacted in total shock.

"Are you kidding me?! You rigged the game, you- you charlatan!" Millie complained.

"Hey, get lost pipsqueak." The Carnie said, grabbing her face before pushing her aside as she lean towards Moxxie with a seductive look, "I'm talking to the gentleman~" Moxxie stopped clapping as he stares at the carnie with an uncomfortable look while she makes a seductive purring sound.

In the background, Loona was being chased by Robo Striker before the latter grabbed hold of her and launched her into the air. The carnie looked up for a moment before Loona crashed down from the roof of her booth, crushing the carnie in the process.

"Ma'am?" Millie said in surprise.

Loona was dazed for a moment before turning to the two, "Ohhhh...Hey, guys! You should probably go and keep an eye on Stella to make sure she is okay." Millie and Moxxie turned around to see Robo Striker emerging from the green flames spreading all over Loo Loo Land. "I've got some unfinished business to take care of." Loona stood back up with her Beretta M9 ready.

Knowing what was about to happen, the two imps ran off, with Millie grabbing one of the Thing dolls. Loona then fired a bullet at Robo Striker, causing his head to spin around. When his head came intact, it was revealed he managed to catch the bullet with his mouth before spitting it out.

"Hmm, Impressive," Loona remarked.

Robo Striker coiled himself into his rolling wheel form as he charged straight ahead at Loona. The hellhound quickly leaped out of the booth as Robo Striker hit it, causing it to explode and sending some Thing plushies into the sky.

One of them ended up hitting a young imp on the head while he was with his family, taking a photo. Even though it wasn't his fault, the dad blamed him for it. "Goddammit, Nathan! You ruined another bloody photo! Why were you even born?!"

____________

Elsewhere in the park, Stella is still searching for Octavia with a look of worry.

"Octavia?" She called out for her until she spots her entering the fun house building. "Octavia!" Stella runs after her to the fun house while the assassins crept up behind her.

As Stella got in the fun house, she was met with a surreal room of eyes, tubes, spikes, mirrors, and disembodied hands. Stella slide into the room on her feet as she looks around for where her daughter could have gone.

Suddenly, an imp assassin jumps on Stella's back. Given that he didn't carry a weapon, Stella looked at him with an annoyed expression. "Um, I think I'm supposed to be bodyguarded right now!"

The assassin goes to cover her mouth with his shirt sleeve for a moment, until he got shot to the back of the head. Stella glance back to see Millie and Moxxie showing up by the entryway of the funhouse with their pistols, the latter being the one that killed the assassin.

"Ugh, that's better." Stella wiped out the black blood off of her clothes, then she asked, "Where is Loony? She's my knight in shining armor, not you little imps."

"She's...busy." Moxxie said with a nervous smile, sliding down to the building.

"Bein' a fool." Millie added, while holding the Thing plushie in her arm.

"What kind of fool?" Stella inquired.

"The "everything is now on fire" kind."

Disinterested, Stella leaves the married imps be as she continues to search for Octavia. Evading two singing pendulums with ease, Stella traversed deep into the fun house until she goes in to a tunnel that leads her to a room where she saw four apple-themed rail cars moving in circles.

There, she saw Octavia sitting on one of them, crying with her head on her knees. Stella gazed at her in worry as she had never seen her daughter crying like this. Discarding her Loo Loo hat, Stella approached to the car she is on.

"Octavia..." Stella began, sitting next to her daughter, " I take it you are... not having fun?"

"I didn't even want to come here..." Octavia sobbed.

"I'm sorry, sweetie. I... I thought you loved it here."

"Yeah, when I was a kid and my parents didn't hate eachother..." Octavia said, wiping off a tear, "And my mum didn't flirt with some...gray mutt dickhead that is also a few years older than me!"

Stella sighed, feeling more regretful. "I'm sorry, Via. I'm sorry for... everything happening right now. I know it's a lot. I, uh- I should have listened."

"I just want to go home... but home doesn't even feel like home anymore... You ruined it."

"You need to understand... your father and I... I just-... I felt-... He's always been... I haven't been- Ha-... We weren't in..." Stella tried to explain, but she kept stuttering it out, "I'm sorry, I- I don't have the words."

"Are you gonna run off with her? And leave me behind? Go away where... I can't find you?" Octavia asked, letting out another tear

"What?" Stella said in surprise from what she said, "No! Oh, no, no. I won't do that and I will never do that. You're my daughter, Octavia. I'll never run away from you..." Stella then embraces her, lovingly. Octavia then smiled, not in a forced way, but in a genuine way.

"I think it's time to leave this place." Stella suggested. "You were right. You are too old for it, anyway."

Stella got out of the car, carrying Octavia in her arms. As they were walking out of the funhouse, another imp assassin was waiting for them on the ceiling. When Stella appeared in his view, he took out his knife and dived down to stab her.

Unfortunately for him, Stella's reaction time was quick as she managed to grab hold of the assassin's neck mid-air. Stella then crushed the imp's neck until his head fell off. She dropped the body before walking out of the funhouse.

Outside, the park was still up in flames. Loona, Millie, and Moxxie were still fighting against Robo Striker. Moxxie attempted to shoot him several times, but it had no effect when he charged straight at Loona again. The hellhound was saved when Millie rode on a dragon, and the draconic creature grabbed hold of the robot before swallowing it whole.

Stella and Octavia weren't fazed by the whole thing as the former kept carrying her out of the now burned Loo Loo Land towards the park gates.

"So, what would you like to do now?" Stella asked.

"Oh, can we go to Stylish Occult? They sell weird taxidermy there," Octavia suggested.

"Hmm, Okayyyy..." Stella said with a reluctant look on her face from her daughter's hobby.

Octavia chuckled, "Thanks, mum. You're okay, sometimes."

Stella smiled, "Thank you, Via. Thank you."

Just then, a massive explosion erupted behind them, followed by screaming coming from Loona, Millie, and Moxxie. The three I.M.P employees then landed face-first in front of the two goetias, smoke coming out of them from the explosion.

"Way to ruin another good thing, Ma'am! You even ruined my Thing!" Millie said to Loona, holding the Thing plushie that is now just a head.

"Worth it! That slutty toy clown had. It. Coming!" Loona replied as the two then fell unconscious.

================

Hope you enjoyed this chapter for the swap AU.  Along with seeing Angry Stolas and Striker swapping as Fizzarolli. 

Octavia's behavior would differ from the canon show. Instead of being a depressed emo, she would still be depressed but wanting to mask it off with a smile while thinking that everything is going to be all right.

Prepare to see swap Verosika and Vortex in the next chapter :)
