A few days have passed by and things were far from normal. Charlie struggled to keep up with past payments from the hotel and couldn’t find a way to pay those bills, while Alastor tried to handle the kids. Celine was the name of the daughter and she was absolutely beautiful. She looked just like Al, but she had her mother’s smile, rosy cheeks and her eyes. The kids could kind of talk (only a few noises and the occasional ‘mama’ and ‘dada’). Celine didn’t have a static effect to her voice like he thought, or maybe it hasn’t developed yet. The VERY hyper son was Asher and he was the spitting image of his mother. He did have his father’s smile and eyes and some static when he “spoke”. He was exactly like his mother, very happy all the time and always smiling. Celine was more calm but had her moments, she was a very happy kid as well but wasn’t as hyper as her little brother. 

But it wasn’t all sunshine in paradise, there was new troubles brewing up in Pentagram City, since the new King and Queen were incarcerated into the world there have been several death threats made towards the family and all the crime bosses have been attacking the new rulers of Hell. Al has been fighting them off the best he could but they just keep coming, one after the other. They hired a sort of “bodyguard” and house maid for their house. Her name was Malisa and she was perfect for the job. She was caring towards the kids and she vowed to protect them with her life. She was already okay in Al’s book but of course Charlie with her new momma instincts was skeptical towards some stranger near her babies. Al told her everything was going to be okay and that they could trust her. Asher and Celine already liked her and that made Charlie’s mind. Everyone knew of the children’s potential, especially the crime lords of Pentagram City.

Vox, Valentino, Velvet, Rosie and Sir Pentious were all trying to take Alastor’s new throne the only way they knew how, by taking one of the children and making them their pawns for total domination of Hell. None could get past the front gate as Al had placed a sentry… creature and if someone that posed a threat tried to enter the intruders would have to deal with THAT thing. There hasn’t been any kind of attack for a while which made everyone uneasy and relieved at the same time. Charlie had recently gotten a call from Nifty saying that she left the hotel because she felt like she belonged there anymore. She asked the new queen if she could have a part time job as a cleaning lady and “house sitter” if they decide to take a vacation. Charlie told her that the job is hers and she’ll let her know when there needs to be a good cleaning.

The fact that there hasn’t been an attack in a while made them all think that everything was okay now and that they all got the message, they were wrong. As soon as they got all comfortable Pentious decided to pay them all a little “visit”. He blew off the roof of the house from above, caving the whole roof into the house.

“Why hello Alastor, we meet again! And thissss time I will not fail in quesssst to take what you hold dear!”

“Ahh once again you have made a terrible mistake my reptilian friend, this will be very entertaining.”

“Yessss it will be… FOR ME!”

Pentious sent his little fried chicken fetuses into the house and shot the whole bitch up to hell (pun intended). Charlie told Malisa to take the kids and hide in the safe room and stay there till this was over. Malisa did as she was told and took the babies and ran for the safe room, Celine and Asher crying all the way there. Al was struggling to keep up with the little hard boiled fuckers as they just kept coming. Charlie pitched in to give her husband a hand and he didn’t refuse. Little did they know Pentious was already inside looking for the so called “safe room” to claim his prize. 

He slithered his way all around the top floor as that’s where the maid took the babies and herself. He finally got to the master bedroom and bashed the door in, breaking it off its hinges. He looked in every nook and cranny to find these kids. He heard a whimper of a baby girl from behind one of the walls and looked for a way to open it. There was a clever lever hidden (hehehehe) as a lamp. Pentious pulled the lever and the false wall opened to reveal the maid with the two children.

“It wassss a valiant effort my dear, but I have won thissss round. Now… GIVE ME THE BOY!!”

“No! I told Mr. and Mrs. Magne that I would protect these kids till the day I die! I won’t let you take them!”

“Until the day you die you sssay… I can certainly make that happen if that’ssss your wish…”

He went to bite Malisa when Asher jumped out of her hands and got in front of the attack. With his combined powers of his mother and father Asher produced a blinding white light that did significant damage to the scaly dumbass. Realising that he had finally lost he told his egg-stremely stupid henchmen to retreat and return to the aircraft. As they all retreated Al fell to the ground trying to regain his strength. His beautiful wife comforted him until they heard the blood curdling scream of their son from upstairs. They bolted as fast as they could to their room to see Malisa holding Ash’s face tightly with a rag covered in blood. They both demanded to know what happened up here and she told them.

‘It was Pentious, he tried to force me to give him Asher and I refused. I told him that I would protect these kids till the day I die. He then went to kill me by biting me with his poisonous fangs. Ash then leaped out of my arms in front of Pentious’ teeth and blasted him with some sort of light. The snake retreated in defeat and took off. But when I went to check uip on Ash, well… look for yourselves.”

They looked at their son and Charlie started to cry. Al was furious at Pentious for doing this to his baby boy… 

Asher’s left eye was all grey… he was now completely blind in his left eye.
