Loona the Caretaker

Meeting An Amazing Rock Star

Training with his dual axes some more, Cody was getting more into the hang of using these two weapons. Not only that, but he was getting used to his revolver as well. This time, Tommy was there to see how the kid was doing putting his axes to training use.

He was watching on and on as Cody was getting the use of the weapons and how he was slowly transforming into a warrior.

Of course; Cody was not a total warrior, but he is slowly getting there. For many, the roads to success can be fast, but for others, it can be slow and it would probably take some time. It almost felt like Cody was going to join the US military or probably the French Foreign Legion. "Just look at him." Said Celeste. "He's getting good with zos axes." And has her arms crossed. "But I hope he doesn't hurt himself. Cody is still just a boy."

"I know, but Cody is learning. It made me think," said Tommy, "that ever since mom and dad died, it helped him mature and grow up on the inside. Turned him into a whole new Cody Laurent."

"Oui, zat's true." Celeste pointed. He's like you a little."

"Almost. He didn't join the French legion like I did." Tommy then thought about that pious man that he knew before he moved to France. "Cody called me last night and said that an unfriendly face from town thought he was the Antichrist."

Celeste gasped in confusion and disbelief. "Him the bringer of Armageddon? S'il vous plait. Where did that crazy bâtard (bastard) ever thought of something ridiculous as that?"

"Belmont is one of those self-centered priests who think themselves better than anyone else. He's like a modern Templar knight, but more extreme. The man's thinking is so Old Testament for us to understand. Mr Belmont is one of those Holier-than-thou bible thumpers."

"Ugh. I hate those kind of people." Celeste groaned. "But what should we do about this man? What if he tries to hurt your little brother? Cody had already been through so much."

"Come on," said Tommy. "Belmont has little to no friends at all. It's not like he can just easily win over a large mass of people by his side all because he thinks that my own kind, and good-natured little brother is the Antichrist. The day that it would ever happen would be the day pigs would learn to fly, or humans became cosmic deities."

Celeste made a small, cute laugh.

"That's a good way to put it." Said Loona with her arms crossed. "But if that old man tries to hurt Cody, I will gouge his eyes out with a corkscrew. You have my word, Tommy."

"Cool." Tommy smiled. "He's doing good with those axes. Felt like he should have joined the legion a long time ago."

"Sure, the kid's good," said Tex, "but he's not like a black belt. Practice makes perfect for everyone."

"Very true." Said Celeste

Cody was feeling some sweat going down his face from all that ax swinging and began panting from all the training and exercise he had endeavored today. Drinking some lemonade from a nearby table, Cody approached his big brother and asked: "So how are the guys doing, Tommy?"

"Everyone is doing awesome, Cody." Tommy happily replied. "They miss you and would like to see you again some time."

"Sure! Can you tell them I said hi?"

"You got it." Tommy pointed his gun gesture with his finger at his little brother. "And hey, you are doing so well with those axes."

"Thanks, Tommy." Cody smiled.

"Tommy, can I have a word with you for a moment?" Loona said

"Sure, what is it?"

Pulling the older human away, the female hellhound cleared her throat and said: "You remember those DHORK hunters that tried to lobotomize Cody?"
