Adam turns to the source of the voice so that he can confirm if its really her. And sure enough. It is her. He sees Stella, looking like she waited a long time for his arrival. Well arrived from the car that is. Assuming its striker that abducted him. Adam sees the look on her face that she looked angry. Real angry. He could tell from the red demonic eyes.

Adam was unsure about what got her in the bad mood? Adam knows he's done nothing. But his only guess, would be stolas. Adam is not sure how stolas got her mad, but its best he don't wanna get in the middle of it. Adam would rather let that be the demons problem. Demons tend to be angered easily. And it shows. Not wanting to stall to avoid getting on her bad side, he makes his way to the table. 

"Sit down dear." Stella tells him. Adam did as he's told. "So Adam, how was your second time in hell?" Stella asked. "To be honest, I expected the same crap. But this time, it was ok. Went to the wraith ring. Enjoying the festival. Only to be abducted by striker." Adam said. "Do you know what was striker plotting?" Stella asked. "No, he just came and got me. Just when I was also about to be taken by the imps that was in a league with Nergal." Adam said. 

"Then you should be glad he saved you. Nergal has been thirsty for vengeance for you. He waited so long to come and nab you. And eventually finishing for what he started." Stella said. "How much do you know that guy?" Adam asked. "I know almost all about him. He has a power so great he could even defeat one of the princes. But for Alastor. That's debatable." Stella said. "Then how come he never showed himself?" Adam wondered. "He's a coward. All demons from all the rings is on the hunt for him, he has the highest bounty then any other demons. Even on the cleanse, not even the exorcists found him." Stella said. 

"So he's just hiding somewhere? Wow, he sure is dangerous alright." Adam said with sarcasm. "He is powerful, but like all demons. He can't risk himself to fight any angel or demons that hold the angelic weapons. Once they endured the damage from angel's weapons. Recovering your power becomes very difficult. Now you know, if you find yourself facing something that can't be killed." Stella sips her tea. 

"Now for the real question? What do you really want from me? I'm not gonna drag myself into whatever pointless war their having. I still got a life, and I'm still here breathing." Adam said. "Don't be ridiculous. I'm not expecting you to pick a side. I just only wanted someone to speak to. Like you Adam.

Before the time is up. Before my husband can take you and your siblings back to earth. I was told from my husband that he will be retrieving you. But I'm also informed more humans you know are also here. At the hotel run by Charlie. Was there any explanation? Of how you got here?" Stella wondered. 

"All I know is that snake demon with so many eyes on him used some device of his that transported me and the others here." Adam answered. "The one that used inventions? That has the egg demons?" Stella asked. "Yep, that fits his description." Adam confirmed. "Then it must had been sir Pentious. I guess that explains it all." Stella sips her tea again. 

"So about Nergal, tell me. Was he human? Did you get a good look?" Stella asked. "No, I never saw him yet. But part of me wishes, I wanna see him. So I could see the man that crushed my life, and killed Mrs. Dawn. And deep down. More of me wants revenge. I never do, but the fact he's out there trying to hunt me down. Is tempting me to make me walk the other direction." Adam clenches his fist. Stella grins, taking as a sign. He's feeling anger. 

"Do you not know why you feel this way? You have a demon inside you. I know humans has them, even the good pure ones has them. Such as yourself." Stella points at his chest with her black fingernail. "But your a special case. Your managing the balance of good and evil within your soul. No wonder Stolas sees something in ya." Stella said. "I'm sure I guess." Adam said. 

"There is one thing I need to tell you. About what happened at  the harvest moon festival." Stella said. "What?" Adam wondered. "Some demon attempted to kill my husband." Stella said with fear in her voice. "What? But why?" Adam asked. "He was hired. Trying to make a lot of buck to kill my husband. He is in possession of an angelic weapon I told you earlier. Not only it can kill demons, but also demon royalty. In other words, its Stolas, Octavia, and me." Stella said. "I didn't know it was capable of killing such a powerful demon." Adam said in a surprised tone. 

"Its dreadful, I know. I don't know what I would do if Stolas or Octavia is harmed." Stella said. "I don't wanna imagine it. I don't wanna see her get hurt ether." Adam said. "Nice to know you care about my daughter." Stella said. "Oh Stella, Stella darling." A voice called. Adam and Stella turns to see who it was. The door opened to reveal Stolas. 

"Ah there you both are. I was gonna gather you all to the hotel to send you back. I was wondering if Stella kept you company when you got taken by a rogue imp." Stolas asked. "You got nothing to fear Stolas. Adam is safe with me. He's alright." Stella said. "Wonderful. Are you still having a great conversation?" Stolas asked. "No, I believe we're done here. I'm sure he's anxious to get back." Stella said. "Then meet me by the entrance of the house. The others are waiting for ya." Stolas leaves. 

"Well Adam, this is were we must part ways. I enjoy a moment of chat with you." Stella said. "Uh, yeah. Sure thing." Adam replied. "Don't keep them waiting." Stella said. "I know. Whatever happens here, I hope things get settled so that you, Stolas, and Octavia feel safe from the rogue." Adam gets up from the chair. "I do hope so. And Adam?" Stella grabs his both shoulders behind him. Adam stood still, being caught off guard. 

"Just one advice before you go." Stella said. "Um, ok." Adam said in fear. "Keep your friends close." Stella pulls him closer. "And enemies even closer." Stella whispered to Adam. "Thanks for the heads up. I guess." Adam said. Stella let's go of him. "Then better go. Who knows how and when trouble would arrive. After all, trouble finds you. Everywhere you go." Stella said.

Adam grunts in response, hate to admit she's right about that. "Yeah, sure does." Adam said with a little anger. "Whoever it is that tried to kill Stolas, I hope he gets what's coming." Adam opens the door, and closes behind him. But unknowing to Adam, everything he was told was all a lie.
"He will Adam." Stella makes an evil grin. "He will." 

Adam walks throughout the mansion, and sees Stolas waiting at the entrance. Stolas turns to see Adam finished the conversation with Stella. "Good, your here. Then its time we send ya back." Stolas said. Adam look right outside that, Jimmy and violet are here. Along with the fellas from I.M.P. But Adam notices something is missing. The college students. "But henry and the others aren't here? Where could they be somewhere?" Adam said in worry. "Don't worry kid. We got a feeling where those college kids are at." Blitzo said. "Where?" Adam wondered. "The happy hotel." Moxxie answered. "Actually Mox, its called Hazbin hotel." Blitzo corrected him. "I know that sir." Moxxie replied. "Hazbin hotel?" Adam wondered what it is. 

"The hotel is run by the princess of hell." Millie said. "And let's skip the part where you question. Hell has a princess part, yeah questions I know. Now let's get going before we get in trouble." Blitzo hops on the driver seat. "Adam. If via happens to be in ether yours or her dream. Do answer her. I'm sure it would make her happy." Stolas said. "I will, I can't bear to see her be sad any longer." Adam said. "Nether can I my friend." Stolas replied. Adam rushes to the van, and gets in from the right. "Hey Adam we got your clothes you can change back to." Violet said. The voiced faded as the van drives off into the road. 

Stolas watches the van going to the road, and goes back inside the mansion. But he turns his head Thinking about what else would fate has in store for Adam and the others? And eventually going back inside his mansion.   

At 666 news studio 

"Well Nergal. As long as we both get what we want. Then everyone is happy. The ratings, and your bloody revenge. Live on TV." Katie said. "Then we're on the same level then. Then I shall be taking my leave. Ill leave ya an early gift, from me." Nergal takes out a pen from his shirt pocket. The pen looked very fancy, enough to impress Katie killjoy. "A pen, for me? You shouldn't have." Katie picked up the pen, and started to click it. "If there's anything you like, its that. Another favorite I known about. With that, I bid you a terrible day miss killjoy." Nergal kissed her hand, and leaves. Katie giggled in response. "What a awful man, and awful is what I adore." Katie said to herself. 

Nergal exited the studio, and got a phone call. Nergal instantly answers. "Did you get him?" He asked. "We were about to, but striker took our target from us." Thorn said. "Striker eh?" Nergal replied. "Yeah, what do we do now? Should we find him?" Thorn asked. "No, but find out who the client is? I can't let any high ranking demons take my kill before me." He said angrily. 

"Yes sir." Thorn said. "In the meantime, we must return back to our hideout. If me or one of us finds Striker. "Follow him, but don't engage. We need to gather info before we can make a plan." Nergal said. "Another note to add, striker holds the heavenly weapons. I know it cause I saw the white glowing markings. Seems he's gonna be an issue to defeat." Thorn said. "You may be right." Nergal said. "All right, we're returning now." Thorn hangs up, Nergal also hangs up. "No matter what happens Adam, trouble always finds you." Nergal walks the sidewalk to return to his hideout. 

Meanwhile 

Julius jumps from one building to another, looking for someone that he wants dead. He come to a halt when he spots a limo driving in the road. Curious, he follows it. He stayed at one building, and looks over to the distance. The limo stops, and sees the blonde girl, and a grey skin girl. Then the two humans come out. Julius looks at the second one, he recognizes that guy's brown hair. He had found someone he was looking for to kill. He look at the building where the limo is Julius had figured it all out. "So this is where your hiding?" Julius makes his sinister smile.           "I finally found you at last. Revenge shall be mine. Once your down for the count, your fellow friends are next in my list." 

Julius jumps down from the building, and heads towards the hotel.
