Another day in hell.

In Blitz case you should know by now to not make stupid decisions. I mean that asking a lot. Not just from him but anyone else in general. At least to know to use his head when budget involved around a commercial.

"I know what you three are thinking. Blitz this commercial deal better compared to before. Even cheaper." A tall scar face imp spun around. Smile big at the three crew members. "Plus, I made sure a channel is really, really known!"

"Kept the jingle?" A gap tooth pretty raven head imp asked. She looked at Blitz in excitement. Hey extra word spread mean customers. Customers go after hits and can try out some new techniques. Ready to use her new axe to split her head apart.

"Have you lost your tits? Of course, we kept the jingle, Millie." Blitz smile wider.

"I still can't believe I had to video that. Again." A grumpy hellhound girl muttered. She was glancing at her phone. She pushes back her long mane to stare at the imp. Who also her adoptive father and boss.

"Did a swell job and save some a cash." Another hellhound girl looks at her. Well, it was hard to tell from the afro like fur.

"Sure, did Esme."

"Now got to make it back up." Esme arms crossed and look at him. Not at all pleased. Yes, it was time to do an update of the business. But it could have done it differently like through their social homepage. Then go through TV. "We really could have posted it on our site."

"Well not everyone can afford it. Plus, I'm going to have some poor schmuck pass by. Thinking in their mind oh I didn't deserve it or some junk. Then bam sees us behind windows, know to find us to go kill who wrong them. Pissed them off. Or whatever junk that happens to them. By that time rolling in clients and money!"

"So, when is this commercial going to air the first time?"

"A week after Extermination Day."

Tense silence a bit.

"So, in two-week tops." Blitz quickly got back to talking to not bring down the air. Of, course he too was a little weary as well as it was coming closer.

During the last three weeks it has been busy. Many sinners who want targets to come over faster. If they go to Hell. Can get killed by an angel as it usually struggles to find a place at the beginning. Worse during those first two weeks. Sure, Blitz got a decent number of customers but the timing sucks. All most didn't even make it to the elevator to leave as sinners try to get them to kill like five hours before it start. No! Not happening. Blitz wasn't even risking it at that time. Unlike last year already made a note IMP will be closed four days before that day arrived. Can make sure the office locks up, secure and take out things that are valuable to not be ransack. Same for at home. Then go to the elevator before the line gets terrible.

"I still think we should have posted it online."

"We are. It'll be uploaded on their next a few days after. Just like we did the last time. Got make sure were widen out everywhere! Even on shitty channel nobody watches."

"What?"

"Now! Which paying looser coming in later. "Blitz interrupted as his phone. He twitches as he pulls it out. "Everyone brainstorms what to put on the next billboard."

Soon, it was just the three girls in the meeting room.

"Are those two, okay?" Millie looked at Loona.

Loona glance at her. Then back to Esme. A small shrugged. "I don't get into their dating lives. Via hasn't mention anything."

It did look lately Blitz seems stressed when talking to Stolas. Not all the time. Yet, lately he has been trying a little too hard to hide it. It could be various reasons mixed in as well from running a business, everyday life of hell, shitty clients, rekindle friendship, and watching over your shoulders.

"Maybe just overlooking." Loona looks back at her phone and stretch. "Those two can handle it. Probably just annoyance not seeing the other."

"Well, while they do that let's get on to work with this client."

In the one and only IMP boss office.

"Are you serious Stolas? Again." Blitz rubbed his fingers

"I'm sorry Blitzy. It's just that I'm very busy right now. Along with Extermination coming in quickly. Practically giving us a deadline to have our reports ready."

The office room was gorgeous with a mix of richness, space and business itself. Business a tall owl demon was doing right now. He was sitting behind his desk with books open up all around their desk. His gray-blue feathers were a little unkempt but not terrible. Red eyes look through his Grimoire.

"Thought you got that taken care of it."

"Yes, well my duties aren't easy."

"Right stars, flaming asteroids and light shows." Lean back throwing a stapler in the air. "Aren't there others than can lend a hand to help? One of those other noble pants. Or your kid."

"Via doesn't need to be responsible for this. Besides she is busy with other things. As for the other nobles. Got their own duties to handle and can't lend a hand in this one."

Plus, the Goetias tend to get picky if they all another in their territory of work. Yes, there are certain projects and duties they will have to work on together. It just varies depending on what the concept of the job is.

Besides this, one has been an ongoing duty that he has to do every year. Just slightly behind along with other duties.

"What about dolly?"

"Puppet will be busy Blitz."

"Jeez Fine I can chill."

"I'll make it up Blitzy. In many ways~"

"Stolas. Phone."

"Says the hypocrite."

"Yep, doing the gag."

"Marvelous Blitzy." A little hoot like laughter. "I better hang up and let you get back to work."

Soon, the two hung up as the other needed to get back to business. Stolas stares at his Grimoire and other books. Let out a tired hoot as he rubs his eyes. Notice a message on a table. A report is usually carried over two-three times a week. Shows they have been doing their job.

He is too good at this damn job.

A job ready to expire soon once Octavia turns eighteen. Stolas wonders at times if he should have pushed harder. Offer higher payment. At times even threaten. Even the dreaded thought to make it look like an accident he got killed.

Striker made it very clear on their side of this agreement. After that both sides are on their own. Unless you want to rehire him with tiple the pricing. Did he forget to mention when Striker talks to him and Blitzy about this? That while his face was serious but so self-satisfying.

That made it extra worrying. Besides well all almost went full demon wanting to shred him. Sure, he worried about him getting his hands on angelic weapons. Unless he already has some but hidden it too well. But without those Striker was just dangerous when he used that mind of his.

Stolas didn't want to think about it. But he had too. Only did this for his child safety but also a close eye on the hidden assassin guard. Except he didn't count how good they are at hiding. Feels like at times maybe not even here doing their job. If it wasn't for the mocking letters Striker would send about updates.

Professional but mocking.

Along with Andrealphus, Stella. As much as Stolas to not always have them in his life. He is still wearying of them. Plus, they were the ones to hire 'Outlaw'. Keep them far but not too far away. Even if he desperately wants them gone from his life.

All of this still and yet Stolas won't do anything. Even if he so easily could. No problem at all. Proof of Striker trying to murder him, again, extra beneficently. All because of one other imp.

Until it breaks.

After that he hopes no situation like before again. Yet, that's a fool's dream. Need to be prepared for the unexpected or Striker starts to get bored.

You all took everything from me!

"Your highness."

Stolas looked at his imp servant. Stares at a letter presented on a platter. A familiar signal that was stamp up front. He clutches his hand while his other hand grabs it. Dismisses him with a wave. Didn't bother watching him bow as he looked at the letter.

But Striker is not the only thing on his mind. At least in the middle ground. Right now, he has to deal with this. It was like one thing after another.

Took a deep breath as he opened up the letter.

Blitz closes the phone as he took his own breath. Glance up at the ceiling as his mind tends to float around. Turn their chair lightly to stare at the portrait that hides the safe.

The five of them.

Should get that other photo uploaded soon to be put on. Make changes. A lot of changes have been happening. Some good. Some bad. Some are very annoying.

Annoying ones like rent going up. Or how they need to go through a new gun vendor as the owner is moving away to another ring. Still, they got other options as they have been looking just was right there. Plus, all that bloody work. Oh! Don't get him started the number of times someone thinks they should tear down the wall instead of using the door. Know what the list is too long with that.

Good? Well, reconnecting with Fizz could be it. There were ups and downs. Yes. Plus, the former clown being pushy with his 'feeling' for Stolas until the pair got together. Annoying or not, it was good to have his old best friend back in his life. It didn't mean their moments or serious talk that Blitz wants to walk away from it. Not ready to talk about all of it. Or just avoid it.

Still a lot of topics the two have to go over.

Another good? Esme knows her work in the office. Please she and Loonie do well together! Happy his daughter in and out of work. Just very chilly and mellow. Yet, it can have a bit of biting tone.

Millie and Loona are still awesome employees when they are with him. Crazy time mind you.

Moxxie, their little buddy will be back over soon.

Verosika and the crew finally got off the floor!

What else? What else? Lack of death threats? Wait that still ongoing but screw those losers.

KNOCK!

"What?" Who interrupts his good time moment montage?

"Blitz the other client here."

"Drag their parts here! We got some blood to spill!" Blitz cracks his hands together and grinned very big. Time to get down to business and make the money.

Can get that new horse after saving up so much!

Another great day at IMP!

"Here you go Millie Pillie!" Blitz dropped her off at a story apartment. A billboard on the very top showing a pair of twins with a body pillow.

"Thanks Blitz!"

"Going to get you early in the morning. Got a lot of clients ready to eat out of our palms."

"I'll make sure to bring the extra daggers."

"Great!"

"See yeah Mil!" Esme waves bye while Loona just did a lazy wave. Then the pair thrown back as Blitz drives out of their fast.

"Dammit Blitz slow down!"

"We got to move quickly before the traffic hits!"

Millie hums as she goes inside the building. She was walking to the stairs as she passed a door. Ready to get a quick left-over meal, shower and hit the bed sack. The Wrathian gal hums as she goes into her fridge to pull out leftovers to be heated. While that was going, she goes to grab a bottle of whisky.

BING!

Pull out her phone and beams a bit. Text back.

Hiya! Today was really fun!

Oh?

Mhmm the mission was a bit bloody but fun. Got to give the client credit gave us a toughie. ^w^

Can be a challenge.

Sure, sure. Also, Blitz got us another commercial!

Which channel?

I forgot to ask.

-_-

Come now it won't be too bad like before. Plus, I'm going to put it on the website too.

Shouldn't need the channel to begin.

Whelp just the messenger. It'll be fine!

Do you need help? Boarding up?

I got everything all good on my end but thanks.

All right.

How about you?

Busy.

Millie snorts as she sits down on the couch with her meal, a cup of whiskey. Eats, text away as she relaxes. Glance to her side at a pair of glowing eyes peeking through a few of the boards.

Unhappy hisses as the rats recognize the middle finger.

Another day that never gets boring.

Two weeks later.

"Everyone shut up it starting!" Blitz giggles as he clap his hands. All of them are back in the meeting room.

This year's Extermination was rough but we were able to handle it. Only had to replace the windows. Aka the building had too. Aka money out their wallets.

Rip Off.

Any who doesn't matter! Will get to watch their commercial!

"Which channel?"

"Right here!" Blitz leans back to throw his feet on the table. "Let the magic of handle to continue the rest."

The current commercial was soon over. On the screen the logo IMP appeared. Then our familiar former clown voice appeared.

"Hi there! I'm B- "

The commercial interrupted to change to channel 666 with the word Break News spinning around like a planet ring.

"Booo!"

"Are you shitting me!"

"Great wonder what this is about."

"Everyone shut the piece of crap about to speak with her boy toy."

One a blonde woman with the big smile. Another gentleman in a gas masked. The names shown on the screen as Katie Killjoy and Tom Trench

"Breaking news everyone! Were all going to get fuck! Isn't that exciting Tom?"

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Done!

Tada!

What do you all think?

A bit of a different pace along with get to see how a few are doing. Before you asked where certain ones are at. Don't, I'm not going to even answer that. Just have to wait for chapters on the way.

Any questions?

Until next time.

Bye, bye!
