The Human Hearted Imp

Chapter 14: Caught in the Owl's Eyes

One afternoon in the I.M.P Office, Loona is sitting on the receptionist desk as she reads her magazine and drinks her coffee. Berry is sitting on the couch looking at her hellphone as she has her headphones on. Drew is working on his aiming with his knives. Drew then throws a knife on the wall that has a bullseye on it. Razor is cleaning one of his rifles and then places the bullets in the compartment in the gun. Mimmy is sleeping in her little bed next to the couch.

Loona soon hears her phone vibrating. She looks at it to see a text from Millie.

On Loona's Phone Screen:

Millie: Hi Loona, we killed the bastard. We're ready to come back.

Loona then texts the message.

Loona: Sure, give me a sec.

Loona then takes out the grimoire, opens the book, and casts the spell to make a portal. Soon, Moxie, Millie, and Randall enter through the portal.

Millie happily says, "We're back!"

"Hey guys," Loona replies, reading her magazine.

"How did the mission go?" Drew asks.

"Went well. We would have done it soon if Moxxie wasn't acting like a worry wart," Randall says with a grin on her face.

"Sorry that I wanted to plan the situation. We were dealing with a serial killer who was wanted in twenty states for first degree murder, robbery, and human slaughtering. I don't plan on dealing with that kind of person," Moxxie says and crosses his arms with a frown on his face.

"Oh lighten up Moxxie. As long as we got the work done. Who cares," Randall says, rolling his eyes.

"Well, I wanted to make sure we get the job done right," Moxxie says, annoyed.

"Don't worry Moxxie, we still got the job done, and none of us got hurt," Millie happily says, and places her hand on his shoulder.

Moxxie calmly smiles and says, "I suppose so."

Randall looks around and asks, "Hey, where's Blitz?"

"Sarge decided to let Blitz have a break since he's been helping around the office, including with the paperwork and the reception all morning," Razor says, and begin polishing his gun.

"He actually left a few minutes ago. Before you guys came back," Berry says.

"Aw man, I guess we just missed him," Randall says, and crosses his arms.

"Is Blitz going to be safe walking in the city on his own?" Moxxie asks, concerned.

"I don't think we should be worried too much. Blitz has been in the city for at least a few weeks or so," Millie says.

"She's right. And we can always text Blitz to ask him if he's alright," Drew says.

"I suppose so," Moxxie says, still a little worried.

Then wonders, "Still, I wonder what Blitz is up to on his break."

Somewhere in Imp City, Blitz is walking along the sidewalk on his own. Blitz looks around as he's still curious on what kind of places Hell has. Soon, Blitz looks ahead to see a small park.

"Hmm, I didn't know there's a park here," Blitz says, and observes the park.

At the park, there are many Imp children happily playing at the playground. Children are on the slide, swings, jungle gym, etc. There are also a few benches and wooden tables. Blitz is kind of confused that Hell even has a park.

"Weird that there is a park in Hell, but then again, this is a city, and even if it's Hell, it's similar to earth," Blitz says to himself.

He shrugs his shoulders and says, "Might as well have a look around."
