~ ONE YEAR LATER~ PROLOGUE ~
ITALY, VERONA
APRIL 13, 2008, 10:54 PM
We found ourselves in Italy, in one of the most romantic cities known in the world for its intriguing stories, legends, historical events, but also the city where a very famous heroic league tried at all costs to defeat an evil that moved in the darkness of the streets, in everyone's fears. Calm reigned among those streets, tranquility, everything was so quiet except for the song of crickets and the breeze moving dry leaves on the street. But if we moved to a dark and gloomy street, a hooded figure with red eyes walked slowly as he cast his eye left and right to check for anyone's presence. However, the anthropomorphic demonic creature had in its arms a sweet little three year old boy wrapped in a white blanket and supported by the figure's protective arms. After that, he took a breath of relief, stepped out of the darkness to reveal himself, and walked with careful, quick step toward a nearby doorway.
Loona: "It's okay, Loris... It's going to be okay, little guy." she murmured to the child, touching his little nose with a smile.
At that moment, she was wearing a cream colored coat with a hood over her head so as not to be seen by individuals who might identify or injure her, a blue crewneck sweatshirt, and black pants supported by a leather belt. Then, she took a deep breath and knocked on the door as she transformed into her human form: a tall, thin twenty three year old girl with long brown hair with side bangs, hazel eyes, and thin lips. After she knocked a little harder one more time, an elderly lady opened the door to see who was disturbing in the middle of the night.
Giuliana: "Good evening, how may I help you, my girl?" she asked with an affectionate smile.
Loona: "Good evening to you too, madam. This child needs someone to raise him, to protect him, to love him more than anyone else! I found him abandoned on a road, in a box... He doesn't deserve to be left alone where the evil people of this world can hurt him, my heart was broken when I saw him there, sweet and innocent... Please find someone and entrust him to the good, will you promise me, madam?" she asked in despair as she looked into the eyes of the elderly woman ready to cry from the pain she felt for the child.
Giuliana: "This is really terrible, cruel! Who dares to abandon a small child of tender age, he still has a life ahead of him! Give him here with me in the meantime, I will take care of him so that good people can adopt him!" she said disgusted towards the society.
Loona: "Thank you very much... He has gone through a bad trauma, but I hope his life will change and he will grow as he wants to." she said relievedly, smiling at her.
Giuliana: "Observe the eyes of this child..." she said affectionately.
Loona moved closer and looked at Loris's gray mixed blue eyes with curiosity.
Giuliana: "Their freshness, their radiant vitality, their liveliness. They resemble a mirror, silent but penetrating: only such eyes can reach the depths of the inner world." she said wisely as the little child made funny noises, his smile thrilled Loona, so innocent, playful...
The main character felt emotionally broken, she did not want to leave him forever to his own fate, she cared about him very much and was willing to protect him, love him and raise him, but she did not feel up to it, she had to leave him in his home world so that he could grow up normally with a suitable educational system. Before Loona left, she took off a pendant she wore around her neck, a metal star, and placed it inside the child's blanket on his chest. Then, with her left hand, she held Loris' head and the other placed it gently on the child's chest, saying to him:
Loona: "Remember Loris, if you see that everything is going wrong, think of me and you will see that everything will be all right... I promise you." she said affectionately with a smile as a few tears ran down her cheeks from emotion.
Giuliana: "It is a nice gesture, my dearling... You will see that he will find a new chance in this world." she said touched.
Giuliana reentered the orphanage with little Loris in her arms while Loona stepped back bringing her arms forward and smiled through silent tears as the noisy door closed. She stood there for a while staring into the void, but a voice drew her away from her thoughts.
Blitz: "Loony!!! Let's go before someone sees us!!!" exclaimed in a low voice from within the darkened street as he held the Grimoire, a magical book for access to powerful spells and portals to Hell and vice versa, their birthplace.
Loona turned around annoyed and in complete nostalgia noticing six yellow eyes in the darkness. A once Loona made up her mind to approach toward them, a madman on a motorcycle stole from Blitz's hands the Grimoire, which nearly ran over Loona as she fell to the ground backwards. Josh was a very dangerous criminal and was a very crude and cruel in some respects. With a thick beer soaked blond beard and unkempt, dirty blond hair, Josh dressed in a long black leather coat full of studs, a pointed brown leather belt, half ripped blue jeans, and black biker boots.
Josh: "You'll never catch me, motherfuckers!!!" he shouted super gassed pocketing the Grimoire in his coat as he ran like crazy through the streets of Verona.
Meanwhile, Blitz ran to Loona to help her up but she arrogantly pushed him away.
Loona: "Arghhh!!! BLITZ!!! NOW WHAT THE FUCK DO WE DO!!!?" screamed in anger as she transformed into his demonic form, an anthropomorphic hellhound.
Blitz: "Uhm... Uhm... Uhm... Let's go get him!!!" he exclaimed in complete shock.
Suddenly, another motorcycle ran at great speed beside them, but they knew very well who they were.
Moxxie and Millie: "We've got it!!!" they exclaimed excitedly as they chased the kidnapper.
Blitz and Loona watched them walk away in amazement, and the I.M.P. leader said:
Blitz: "The M&M team never disappoints me!" he said proudly, bringing his hands to his sides
Loona: "Come on!!! Let's get a motorcycle and catch up with them, quickly!!!" she exclaimed angrily as she sprinted toward a red Harley Davidson.
