Loona the Caretaker

Another Touching Reunion

This party was really nice, and Cody was liking this, although he stood clear of some scary demons. While the kid, Loona, and her cohorts (and coworkers) were enjoying the party, Blitzo awoken from being hungover on the coach in his apartment, and his head was aching, like he had a boulder dropped on top of his head.

"Fuck." He groaned. "I got to lay off this piss." he shook his head violently to try and get the pain to go away, and remembered he had some painkillers in his medicine cabinet. "Why do I do this?" He said to himself out loud. "Why do I always drink like this?! I mean, yeah, Loona drinks, but how does she do it!?"

Then he realized that Loona was nowhere to be seen.

"Loony?" He called. "Cody?" He looked too and fro, and found a letter on the front door. It read "Adoption party at Crymini's place. See you soon, fuck you, Loona." Blitzo narrowed his eyes at the viewers. "Yep, that's Loona's handwriting alright." then he tossed the note in the air after crumbling it into a ball. "Where the fuck are those painkillers?" he said to himself. He got two pills of those painkillers, but of course, he stuffed all those pills down his throat since this is Hell.

It would probably take a while for the pounding in his head to go away, but he took all those pills for good measure. Blitzo probably won't be expecting Cody and Loona to be back any time soon tonight and thought of how much of an asshole his father was, especially how he just met him again not too long ago. The nerve of that fucker, coming to Blitzo like that to have him steal something from Tilla, his own ex-wife. Blitxo's mother deserved far better than that. Yet again, this is hell, and there are not a lot of extremely good or healthy families down here. then a knock on the door was heard, making Blitzo growl in frustration.

"Oh who is that?" he mumbled to himself. He went over to see who it was, and he exclaimed: "What?! Oh!" his demeanor immediately changed from annoyed to shocked to see Tilla herself. "m-mom?" he said.

"Blitzo." said Tilla, very happy to see her son. Blitzo felt tears forming in his eyes and he hugged his own mother tightly. It was the tightest hug he had given her in a long time. "I missed you."

"How... did you find me here?"

"Loona."

"Loona?"

"It's a long story." Tilla sighed. "But, your father tried to steal my wrestling buckle and sell it for millions of dollars."

"What? Why that cocksucking sperm donnor!" Blitzo broke the hug off in shock, and looked infuriated at Cash Buckzo. "If I ever see him again, mom, i swear-"

"You don't have to worry about him." said Tilla, gently putting her right arm on Blitzo' left shoulder. "Loona already took care of him by forming him into a pretzel... and ripping his clothes off."

Blitzo looked surprised, but smiled when he said: "That's my girl." then looked at his mother again. "Well, i should get going-"

"Wait," said Tilla. "Please, sweetie. I want to make up for lost time between us."

Her son looked guilty and said: "Look, i don't want to hurt you again." he said.

"It's ok, Blitzo. I forgive you." Tilla reassured him. "Please, just let me inside. And i know it wasn't your fault, it was your fathers'. You are way better than he is."

"Even if I run my own assassin business now?"

"Well... i admit, it's a little questionable." his mother pointed. "But you are still my son," she put her hand on his left shoulder again. "Please, i want to have you in my life again. My own baby boy." Those words let Blitzo have a few tears escape his eyes. He really missed his mom after all these years. The very woman who loved him and raised him, and gave birth to him.

"OK. Come on in."

Tilla smiled and walked after Blitzo into his apartment. "So, this is your apartment, hmm?"

"Yep. My... humble abode. I know it's not much, but... it's home." Blitzo said. "And Loona lives here too."

"And Cody?"

"Yes. But she takes care of him." he looked at her as they both sat on the couch together.

"So how did he land down here?"

"It's a bumpy roller coaster, mom." Blitzo warned her. "But, to shorten it out, Cody lost his parents in a fire, and Loona saved him from joining them and grew attached to him, blah blah blah."

"Poor baby." said Tilla. "I'm sorry that he had to suffer through that."

"But Loona adopted him and is now like a little brother to her now." Blitzo smiled

Tilla smiled after and said: "I knew she had a heart."

"Of course she does. Loona always has a heart. She just doesn't like to show her emotions." then it was silent for five whole minutes before Blitzo said: "But i really hurt you in the past. How can you forgive me so easily?"

"Because i'm your mother, Blitzo."

"Well... the O is silent now."

"Oh. Sorry."

"No, it's ok. You're my mom, so you're an exception." Tilla smiled again. "So, what have you been doing all these years?"

"I've been living in a nice house down here. It's... not very far from here." Tilla replied. "But it's a nice place."

"Mom,"

"Yes?"

"You still love me?"

"Of course I do."

"Then... i just want to understand i am so sorry for-" then he felt himself being pulled and he was sobbing into his mothers' body.

"It's ok, honey." Tilla soothed him. "It's all in the past, and this is here and now." the hugging went on for a period of time as Blitzo was crying some more. Finally, when he got his composure, his mother gently let him go. "So, where's Barbie Wire?"

"ooh. She's... in rehab right now."

"Oh." Tilla made an uncomfortable face.

"I know, I know, but she's going to be in there for a few more months now."

"That's good to hear. And... at least you got your own son."

"Well... Cody is not really my son, but he's a cool kid."
