"5...6...7...8...9...10! Ready or not, here I come!"

Alastor was playing Hide n Seek with Lana. This time, it was his turn to be the seeker.

"I hope you chose a good hiding spot, my dear..." said Alastor. Luckily for the young girl, using his shadows as the seeker was prohibited for Al since he would give him an unfair advantage.

Alastor entered the house, he first inspected the kitchen and found there was nobody there.

"Hmm...If I were a small child, where would I hide?" He wondered, "In a place where a grownup wouldn't find me...Like the air vents." He went upstairs.

Meanwhile, Lisa was fixing a machine.

"Almost there...Alright, it should be working," said Lisa. She pulled down the lever, activating the machine.

However, it seems to had some malfunctions as it began buzzing and emitted some lightning.

At the same time, with much to both their bad luck, Lori and Alastor walked near Lisa's room, with the teen being on her phone.

The machine exploded, with an energy wave hitting Alastor and Lori.

"Oh, dangit!" Lisa turned off the machine and brought the two to her room. Lily while in her crib, saw the two unconscious, and looked a bit worried.

"Fear not, my younger sibling, our eldest sibling unit and our infernal caretaker are alive." Lisa comforted the baby, headpatting her.

Alastor and Lori groaned as they regained consciousness.

"Urgh...My head..." said "Alastor".

"Are you alright, dear?" said "Lori", as a wide smile appeared on her face.

The two went pale as they looked at each other in horror.

"Why is my voice so high-pitched?" said "Lori".

"Why do I sound like a radio?" said "Alastor".

"I'm afraid it's my fault," said Lisa.

One explanation later...

"So, Lori and I have swapped bodies," said Alastor.

"Precisely, and if my calculations are correct, you should return back to normal by the end of the day," said Lisa, adjusting her glasses as she spoke.

"The end of the day?! That's too much!" said Lori, "I literally have a date with Bobby today!"

"And I had...A meeting with the Overlords," said Alastor, with concern in his tone.

"Then I'm afraid you'll have to pretend to be each other for the day," said Lisa.

"Huh...Who are the Overlords?" Lori asked.

"...I'd rather discuss it in private, dear," said Alastor.

"I'll see myself out, then." said Lisa, taking Lily out of her crib and leaving.

Alastor took a deep breath. "You see, dear, down in Hell there's a hierarchy. Above the common Sinners, there are the Overlords, powerful demons who have a monopoly over a certain industry and gather their powers thanks to the souls they take via making deals."

"And...You're one of them?" Lori asked.

"Precisely. I'm the Overlord of Radio, although I'm usually known as the Radio Demon." said Alastor, "And I'm supposed to go to a meeting down in Hell, and since I'm in your body at the moment, it means..."

Lori's eyes widened. "I have to literally go to Hell?!"

"Correct!" said Alastor. "I hope you're good at imitating accents, my dear."
