Cody was relieved to have Verosika and her crew leave him alone like this. But he felt sympathy for Vortex having to work for her as her personal bodyguard. Tex seemed like quite a gentle giant, and a really nice guy with good looks for a demonic hellhound with a scar over his left eye. The human boy can kinda see why Loona fell in love with a cool guy like him. The female Hellhound went up to Cody and hugged him. "Cody, are you ok?"
"Just fine, Loona. It's kinda my fault. I forgot the cross was in my back pocket and-"
"No no no, don't be too hard on yourself." Loona smile, gently placing a hand on his left shoulder. "We all forget things."
"Oh, like how you keep forgetting not to eat my lunch?" Moxxie pointed in an annoyed tone
Loona looked annoyed at the imp's remark, and said: "Put a cock in it." she nodded her head sideways while her white and red eyes looked up in the ceiling before turning her attention back to the adorable human boy. "Sorry. Me and my coworkers still have some beef with one another. I promise, it has nothing to do with you."
Cody smiled. "Good. As long as you don't try to kill each other, I'm fine."
"She did try to kill me one t- OW!" Moxxie felt his left arm being jabbed by his own wife with her right elbow.
"Moxxie. Now's not a good time, sweetie-kins." she gritted her teeth."
"Sorry."
"I know I have the cross with me, but what if Verosika comes back for me? He sees me as if i'm a dog or a pet, not a kid."
"You're not wrong." said Blitzo. "The way she and her friends were fondling you as if you were a puppy or a kitten."
"What he's trying to say is," said Loona, "they will never get ya. If they want you, they'll have to get through me."
"But Tex is with them and he is very strong." Cody pointed
"Maybe so, but he's my friend too. He clearly said he would make sure that Verosika would never hurt you or try to take you. If I trust him, you should too, Cody. You'll be fine." she gently hugged.
"Thank you Loona." said Cody, hugging her. "Though I wish my brother was here."
"Well, we're sorry." said Blitzo. "But we can't make him appear with the snap of my fingers."
"I know, I know." Cody sang. "I just want him to know that i'm alright. But... Can I go to the human world again? I want to do something like... walk in the forest or enjoy the wilderness, something like that."
"Sure, we can do that." Loona said. "Blitz, hand me that book."
"Very well. Just be careful not to be assaulted by some freaks or weirdos."
"Oh shut up, Blitz." Loona said. "You and I both know that no one would even think about trying to rape me. You should have seen what i've done to a group of bikers that harassed me and Cody at Burger King yesterday. They never stood a chance."
Cody did remember that all too well. How she handled those thugs as if they were nothing to her at all, but a couple of pests. "She's right, you know. She kicked some biker butt at Burger King. I wish you guys would have been there."
"We believe you Cody." Moxxie said. "Trust me, we have all seen what Loona is capable of. She can be a tall, mean killing machine if angered... No offense."
"Meh. None taken. Kinda take pride in that actually. Besides, i've been called worse."
"That makes sense." said Millie. Blitzo promptly gave the hellhound the book to the human world, with she and the human boy transporting back to Earth. They were at a place that looked like a forest or some kind of wilderness, with some trees and a nice valley of grass. Cody decided to sit on a knoll and Loona sat next to him. There was no need for a human disguise since there were no other humans seen in this little area near Cody's hometown.
