The cries of euphoria echoed among the university students, while their tanned bodies shone under the sun, moving to the rhythm of the deafening music.

Between laughs and kisses, some threw cups of alcohol at each other, while others got drunk with beers, filling the sand of the beach with plastic, condom wrappers, bikinis and garbage scattered everywhere.

A muscular young man, wearing sunglasses, watched the scene from his corner, enjoying the party with a drink in hand. Suddenly, he felt a soft touch on his shoulder.

Turning, his eyes met a pale girl with a gothic aesthetic, whose mysterious and attractive air immediately caught him. She didn't say anything, but with a flirtatious smile and a simple gesture, she invited him to follow her to the alley near the building.

Excitement ran through him with an uncontrollable tingle. He nodded, sketching a seductive smile, and followed her without hesitation, his thoughts invaded by expectation. Who needed a condom when the opportunity was so tempting? However, what he didn't know was that the only thing that would be introduced into that alley would be a bullet straight to his head.

From the coral rocks beneath the pier, Blitzø watched the scene intently. As he saw the couple walk away, he turned to his employees.

Blitzø: The horse heads to the stable. I repeat, the horse heads to the stable.

Moxxie, Millie, and Y/N looked at him in utter confusion. Blitzø, exasperated, pointed towards Loona, who was leading the young college student towards the alley, as if the answer was obvious.

Y/N: Oooh.

Millie nodded, understanding what she was supposed to do, and sneaked away behind them. Moxxie, however, frowned and looked at his boss in annoyance before following his wife.

Moxxie: You know, speaking in code doesn't work if you make it up right then and there, sir.

Blitzø rolled his eyes, peering back towards the group of humans, watching the scene intently.

Y/N tried to follow Moxx, but before she could move much, Blitzø grabbed her by the collar of her shirt, stopping her in her tracks.

Blitzø: Hold it, shorty...

Blitzø looked around at the crowd of college students, assessing the situation. Chaos was the perfect environment for his work: many targets in one place. However, taking out each one of them one by one might take too long. He looked around, completely ignoring Y/N, who tilted her head, visibly confused. There were plenty of dark corners away from the public at his disposal. He could take advantage of that.

He let go of the little girl's shirt, but quickly pulled her towards him with his arm, drawing her attention.

Blitzø: Come 'ere, kid. I got a mission for ya.

Y/N opened her eyes wide, grinning from ear to ear as she gasped, filled with excitement.

Y/N: Really?

Blitzø: Yep, that's right.

The imp pointed towards the end of the pier, a dark place where the sound of the waves drowned out the hustle and bustle of the party.

Blitzø: D'ya see the end of the dock, right there?

He then pointed at a tanned human with dreadlocks and a small beard.

Blitzø: Your job'll be to take "Mr. pubis churros head" to that place. I'll take care of the rest. You got that?

At first, Y/N felt a bubbling excitement at being given a task. However, as reality settled in her mind, her nerves began to take hold. She knew what the human's fate would be once she led him there.
