Helluva Boss: ''Helluva Human Kid''

Ch.115 - Thanks, Balin

Back at the scene of the Hellhound 'n' Sheep disaster, Moxxie continued holding up the firewater tower with all his might as it started to fall, while Millie soon pulled a badly injured Loona away from it with all of hers.

Everyone in the stands, including Balin and the racers, all got out of the way to avoid a flood, and soon started watching as the sheep's act of heroism went on.

Millie's family looked at the scene with both surprise. Whilst they were glad Millie was safe, they were rather stunned to see Moxxie hold up something as heavy as a water tower by himself. But not for long.

As the sweat started pouring from Moxxie's head, Joe bucked up and released a grunting noise before running into action as quick as he could, and came in to help to Moxxie's surprise next.

"Get outta here, Thespian!" Millie's buff father order bravely to him. "Let a real man handle this!"

"No, sir!" replied Moxxie, trying to catch his breath. "Me AND Millie are doing this! AS ONE!"

"Well, this one's gotcha back, Moxx-man!" said Tex, as he stood right next to Joe.

Soon, from tall to short and strong to skinny, the three kept the water tower up all standing at an angle, like the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

"Ugh! Hell no, bad idea!" gagged Joe, as he and Tex backed away. "Still smells like ram dick!"

"Yeah, I guess I deserve that one." Moxxie shrugged to himself.

Soon, Moxxie felt his little hoofed legs started shaking as he held on. They couldn't hold the weight of the tower any longer. 

So in all his agility, he quickly let go with a slip of his fingers and fell to the ground, before rolling away from the tower, just in time for it to land, sending some of the firewater pouring out.

"Are you alright, cupcake?!" shouted Sallie-May, as she checked out the tower.

"Uhh..." Moxxie was rather flabbergasted to see himself next to the tower this time, instead of getting smushed, as always. "....Yes?"

Suddenly, the two heard some gurgling noises heading down to the tap of the tower, then....

*WHOOSH!!*

The tap had blown itself off due to the water pressure, spewing firewater out of the tower like a burst pipe all over Moxxie, as it sent him flying to a nearby stall at the markets and crashing into the produce around it.

"Moxxie!" cried Millie, as she and the family ran to him.

Moxxie climbed his way out of the stall wreckage, coughing from the water pressure that hit him.

As some of the produce fell on his head, he soon noticed a whole string of hell-berries, little pebble shaped berries with red ganache, tangled around his tail.

"Yep. Now the produce hates me too." Moxxie then rolled his eyes, looking at the readers as he spoke.

"Moxxie!" Millie shouted again, before hugging him. "Thank God you're okay!"

"Like I said I'd be, honey." Moxxie softly sighed as she hugged her back. "Sorry for... worrying you guys with all that."

"Hey, at least you smell like an 'alcoholic' sheep now, after saving someone like that." Millie then sniffed his body without gagging, while Moxxie looked at Loona in surprise of saving her.

"That first half's a good thing, right?" asked Moxxie with a raised eyebrow.

Millie's parents then lightly laughed with each other hearing that, while Sallie-May just rolled her eyes. But as Moxxie passed the two, they went back to a blank expression. This time, one where they didn't show any hate.
