The Human Hearted Imp

Chapter 11: Party Crashing Mishap

One early morning in Hell, there is a building known as the Goetia Mansion of the Great Prince Stolas. The mansion is a regal burgundy colored building. Its windows are elegant and tall with pink stained glass, which light long corridors filled with plant vases. It also has Stolas's glyph carved in several places such as the balconies.

In one of the chambers, the Goetia Prince is sleeping in his bed. Prince Stolas is an anthropomorphic owl demon. He is tall and slender, with a white, heart-shaped facial disk and small black beak, resembling that of an owl. He has gray-blue feathers, which gradient to dark gray-blue on his head and long, plume-like tail. He has a lighter gray-blue puff of fur on his chest. His limbs are long, thin, and black, and his feet are tipped with owl claws.

He soon opens his two pairs of almond-shaped red eyes, one set atop the other, with no visible irises or pupils.

Stolas wakes up feeling dejected. He sits up and groans as he gets out of bed. He soon dressed in his burgundy robe and hoes to his boudoir. He brushes back his feathery head, and takes a bottle of pills. Then he walks to the library and opens up the grimoire and sees the magic floating out of the book. Stolas soon closes the book and walks away.

Stolas walks down the halls as a female voice muffle, "Yes, together we're-"

Stolas opens a door that has three stars on it to see his daughter named Octavia, a young owlet in her teens sleeping in her bed. She has a coat of gray feathers two tear-like streaks below both eyes, and has a white mask-like face, along with shaggy scruffy hair feathers.

He then wanders in the kitchen to see his wife, Stella. A tall, slim, white avian demon. Stella has long, hair-like feathers that have gray tips and a large gray stripe on her head. She has a short pink beak, and very long curved eyelashes. She has gray markings underneath her eyes, which themselves have red sclera with light pupils. For attire, she wears a white dress with puffed sleeves and feather trimming, along with black accents. She is seen wearing a crown, and has painted nails underneath her black gloves.

As Stolas walks in the kitchen and grabs a kettle, Stella talks loudly on the phone, "I know still being married isn't a big enough occasion, but to be fair, it's no picnic being married to a boring stiff like Stolas." And turns to see Stolas, who has entered the room.

Stolas tries to start a conversation, but she holds her index finger at him. Knowing she's on the phone, letting him know she's preoccupied. Stolas walks away and to the kitchen table to drink his morning beverage. He uses his magic to open the newspaper in front of him. He soon notices something particular in the paper. It reads, 'Not Divorced: Anniversary Party! Couples only.'

He turns to his wife and asks, "Stella, what in Hell is this?"

Stella turns to Stolas and answers, "Ugh, Stolas, you know I like throwing parties. Plus, it's true, so you know you can come if you want." And flips her hair feathers.

Stolas decides to drink his morning beverage, hoping to ignore what Stella has said.

Meanwhile, in Moxxie and Millie's household, Blitz is inside his bedroom looking into his special treasure chest. It also has a lock attached to it. The treasure chest is brown with gold designs on the edge areas, even on the lock is gold with some rhinestones decorated on them. The box is the size: 7.3"X 5.8 ''X6.2". Blitz then takes out the yellow key and unlocks the lock. Then opens the chest to see a few things. A few jewelry, a few photographs, a few fishing lures, and other small items, which are really Blitz's small treasures. He also brings out a certain picture of him and his family. Blitz smiles to see the picture and looks down to see his mother's pearl bracelet and places it on his wrist.

"What you got there, Blitz?" Randall voice answers.

Snapping out of his inner thoughts, Blitz quickly turns to see Randall and yelps in surprise that he almost falls off the bed. And sees Randall sitting on his bed.
