Striker, Seth, and Kore join in the clash against the cherubs over a greedy, rich old man. Things sure do happen!

Vol 6: C.H.E.R.U.B.

"Well, howdy! I'm Cletus! Welcome to Heaven! Guess you did something good to get here, and good people deserve to give loved ones special blessings!"

On TV, it showed a human cherub with white skin, apple cheeks, purple eyes, red hair, and white angel wings white the outer wings purple. He wore red overalls with white buttons, a yellow shirt underneath it with a white collar, and purple shoes.

In the commercial there was footage of people dying in various ways, but Cletus along with the other two sheep cherubs assured viewers in song form that their loved ones could be saved, thanks to the cherubs.

Kore and Seth sat in the I.M.P. office as they watched. They looked up from whatever they were doing, curious about this commercial.

"Mom, what's a cherub?" Seth asked.

"Oh, honey, a cherub is a small angel," Kore answered.

"Yeah, just think of it as the opposite of an imp," Striker said, twirling his blessed pistol in boredom. Yet, he and his family visit Charlie at the Happy Hotel sometimes for support of her passion project, which was sending sinners that she saw as redeemable to Heaven. They'd even drop in a coin to donate money for charity. Even he felt sorry for certain sinners, whether they were abused or mistreated, especially by overlords, knowing his experience with them in the past.

The jingle came to a close when a gunshot hit the TV screen.

Seth, Kore, and Striker turned to see who caused the racket.

"Nice one, B!" Millie chirped.

"Blitz!" Seth scolded, "We were just watching it!"

"Well, it's over now, kiddo," Blitzo told him as he blew smoke from his flint pistol. To Moxxie, he added, "Gimme another, Mox!"

Moxxie nervously brushed off the flaming debris with his hand and replaced the broken TV with a new one. He turned it on.

The first thing that appeared on TV was the 666 news.

Blitzo filled his flintlock pistol with gunpowder. "Eh, nah. Not feelin' it. Next!"

Moxxie switched the channel.

The next channel was in black and white with a demonic Betty Boop holding a pitchfork as she danced erotically.

Repulsed by the image on TV, Kore covered her son's eyes and covered her own eyes.

Striker shook his head with annoyance at the disgusting display on TV while Blitzo and Millie looked bored.

"Uh-huh. Keep going, keep going, keep goin'..." Blitzo twirled his gun around a bit.

Moxxie changed the channel.

Wally Wackford appeared on screen, dressed in white with a baby blue vest and black bowtie, wearing a top hat with blue rim (same color as his vest), and long black boots, and holding a cane. He had long slightly curved black and white horns, white hair, a long black curly mustache, and black fingerless gloves.

"I say, I say! Are you lookin' to get work making crazy contraptions and goofy gadgets? WELL, call me at Wacky Wally Wackford's Wacky Idea Factory!" he announced.

The title he mentioned appeared in a circle like in an old classic cartoon.

"Where you make the things and I make the money!" With a pleading face on screen, he added, "Please! I'm very desperate!"
