Helluva Boss: I.M.P'S Newest Employees (18+)

14. A Helluva Christmas

One wintry morning, Rhys and Emily were enjoying a breakfast of Bacon and eggs when Rhys' phone rang. He quickly picked it up and answered the call. "Hello, who is this?" The Imp asked. "Hey Rhys, it's Blitz, I just wanted to inform you that if you are invited to a mandatory party on December 25th, also yes, you can bring your plus one. Okay byeeeeee!" And he hung up the phone before Rhys could ask any questions. "Who was that honey?" Asked Emily asRhys put his phone away. "The boss. He invited us to a party at the office on the 25th, though he said nothing about Christmas." "That's odd, he probably is just implying it with the date, it makes sense after all." She said. The two lovebirds continued eating until there was nothing left on their plates, put them in the sink for Rhys to do later as they were beginning to run late on some of their plans. They hurried out the door and went to make their way up to the pride ring.

At that same time, Loona was awoken by a very sick DeeDee. Unfortunately he had come down with a bad cold and was having trouble breathing, "Barking," as his parents dubbed it when he had these bad colds filled with horrendous coughing fits., and was an annoyance to everyone, including DeeDee. "Aughhhh..." Groaned Loona as she arose to DeeDee's coughing, she scratched her snout in between her eyes and got up. She was more or less awake for the most part, so she got ready for her day of work. DeeDee however was still in bed, fast asleep, "BCOUGH BCOUH BOUGH!" He went as he tossed and turned. Loona called for her dad, and he picked up the phone, "Hello, this Blitz, the O is silent, what can I do for you?" He said. "Hey, uh, Blitz, I think DeeDee's sick and needs to go to the vet. You said if this doesn't die down in a week then we'll go to the vet, and you know, it's been a week." "Uh huh, yeah. I'll come pick you guys up, but we have work today so the vet will have to wait until afterwards." "Oh. Okay, well, bye." "Love you sweetie." And he hung up. A few minutes later Blitz was honking his horn outside the apartment, with Emily and Rhys in tow. The two came outside and got in the van. Rhys and Emily were sitting up front with Blitz while DeeDee was resting his head on Loona's lap, trying his best not to cough, though when they would hit bumps in the road, he would be thrown into a coughing fit.

After the drive, they went inside I.M.P and were met by Moxxie and Millie. "Hey guys." Said Millie, the four workers sat around the table while Emily sat in a chair by the wall. "Alright you guys, we're going to throw the biggest fucking party ever! So after work, put some ideas into this box that you think of. But in the meantime, we killlllling!" Blitz said, "Now, any questions?" Moxxie put his hand up. "Great! Now, each group has five targets for the week, and then on Monday next week, we're throwing the party!" Blitz said as he said as he stood up and walked around the table, handing files to Rhys, Moxxie, and Loona. "Alright, let's get to work!" The I.M.P manager yelled as he went to grab the book. Everyone jumped through, all except Emily of course, though she was hard at work, thinking of ideas for the Christmas Party.

Everyone went their separate ways, Rhys and Blitz hurried along, wanting to get their work done quickly, Moxxie and Millie were going quickly too, Moxxie complaining about how Blitz wasn't listening to him, And the two hellhounds, in their respective disguises, trundled along slowly, DeeDee coughing wildly while Loona trailed behind him. Rhys and Blitz hurried to their first stop, and Blitz began to get his sniper set up ready while Rhys tried to get the target into a still position. "Um, begging pardon sir! But can you please sign this?" He called out, the target turning around and walking over. "POOF!" "One down, four to go." Said Rhys to Blitz through an earbud that made him look like he was part of the C.I.A. Meanwhile, Moxxie and Millie were getting ready to take care of all five of their targets at once; it was an entire biker gang, the five targets included, versus the two of them. Millie screamed a battle cry and started swinging her axe left and right, cutting people down. While Moxxie on the other hand was loading his shotgun, readying it to turn someone's face to red mist. And finally, Loona and DeeDee were fighting their enemies, some people in a gang, and were very successful in finishing off the last person, but then DeeDee began coughing. It alerted the others in the neighbourhood and they started spraying down the house! The two managed their quick escape, running back to the spot they were told to go to in the time limit. "That's the last guy." Said Blitz to Rhys as they started walking back. "Yeah, I honestly thought that it was going to take a few days for it to be over." Rhys said as they made their way back. "I know what you mean." Blitz said, starting to waddle down the alleyway. "Man, I knew the file said they were in a biker gang, but I thought it would be a lot more people." Millie said. "I'm just glad that that was all the people there were!" Moxie exclaimed, disagreeing. "Plus did you see what the files said? It said they commanded thousands!" "Ah who cares, we can do anything as long as we are together." Millie said, kissing Moxxie on the cheek. "BCOUGH BCOUH BOUGH! BOUGH!" DeeDee coughed and sputtered as he tried to pick up the pace. "What the hell was that all about?" Loona Questioned, very annoyed about the whole situation. "I'm sorry Loona, I honestly don't mean to cough." DeeDee apologised, "No, I'm talking to myself. We were getting sprayed down yet there I was, not trying to fight back." She said, Holding one arm with her hand. DeeDee just grabbed the hand that she was squeezing and held it, swinging it up and down as they turned the last alley, catching up with Moxxie and Millie, who were furiously making out, thrashing themselves on unused boxes and the brick walls. "What weirdos." Said Loona.
