《Helluva Boss: Hellish Love (Loona X Original Character)》Chapter 39: Alastor And John Lennon's History
Advertisement
Alastor grumbles and says "Yes John and I know each other very well" to which John Lennon said afterwards "Very well as in we know about each other and despite one another" Loona looked at John and said "Are we going to get an awesome backstory about you two?!" Alastor growled deeply "No!" whilst his face went distorted and his eyes turned to clocks and static surrounded him.
John Lennon smiled and said "Yeah alright I'll tell you the story between Al and I" Loona and I sat closer to John and Alastor's face turned red and he then shouted "I am supposed to have my meeting with Carter!" John laughed and said "Oh stop your winging, if I did that in front of my mother she would've smacked my bottom and from a man from the southern states I would imagine that she would do the same" Alastor looked like he was about to burst but then calmed down as he began to gather his thoughts for a moment before slumping back in his swivel chair and crossed his arms, sighed and and quietly mumbled under his breath "Fine go ahead". John rubbed his hands together and leant forward and began his story
"Of course our story starts on the night of my murder, December 8th 1980. After I had died and ended up here I didn't know where I was, I was confused and scared, I woke up in a place that looked similar to Hamburg's red light district. Saw creatures and demons of all shapes and sizes, I of course was wearing this already but I didn't know what I looked like until I walked by a window and saw my reflection. I was very startled and fell into the road, I was nearly run over until Alastor pulled me out of the street. He dusted me off and complemented my outfit, now keep in mind I was still out of it since I had just arrived and my whole perception of the universe had changed and I screamed not only at the fact that I was nearly run over but when I saw Al for the first time I screamed at him also. He took me to his pad and introduce himself and I introduced himself to me, it felt odd when he told me he had no idea who I was, I haven't felt so unknown since before I formed The Beetles with Paul. Anyway he taught me the ropes and allowed for me to crash as his for a bit. A few years go by and I found out by then just what type of monster that Al was, the things he done, the sadistic manipulator he is!"

John paused looking at Alastor whilst Alastor smiled like he was enjoying listening to John recalling the things that he did, like he knew that it was tormenting it. I looked back at John and he looked like he was going to charge him, like there was a red mist, but John collected himself and continued his story.
"It was then that I decided that enough was enough, one day I saw him make a deal with a young lad, I don't know what he did to make it down there but he didn't seem a bastard. But unfortunately he made his way down here with the rest of us, he couldn't have been no more than 15? 16? He made a deal with Al, I don't know what exactly but all I know is it caused the lad to go down a dark path. Leasing out his body, a child prostitute. The young lad had enough and killed himself, his soul gone forever, never to find peace. Since then I did my god damn hardest to try and protect those that I could from that CUNT sitting across from me. I stopped counting those that I save from that lunatic after 78".
John pulled out a cigarette and lit it and then took a few drags of it whilst Alastor chuckled and then said whilst sounding annoyed "I must admit it annoyed me but not much to a point where I would have removed him from existence entirely, besides I had thousands more after that boy" It visibly sickened Loona and I saw tears in her eyes as she began to gag, she said out loud "I-I can't!" and ran out of the office slamming the door behind her. I felt angry and upset and I scowled at Alastor who simply smiled in return before he said "Now that Mr. Lennon's story is over I believe I had originally called you here for a meeti-" I cut him of and said "No meeting, we're done here. I'm done with you, I had my doubts about you before but I still stuck with the idea that you wanted to help. But now after what John has told me, I want nothing to do with you. This is goodbye Alastor"

I got up and then John got up afterwards and we headed for the door but just before we was about to leave Alastor's office he said "Carter If you leave I'll take away my special gift that I gave you" I paused and so did John, he looked at me and said "I'll go see how Loona is doing" and left leaving Alastor and I alone. I turn to face him whilst still scowling and I said "And what would that be?" Alastor smiled sadistically and said "Well you wouldn't want to lose your Hellhound form now would you, my sense tell me that have become attached to it are you not?" I stood there and said "It's not my form that I care about, Loona loves me either way, Hellhound or not" Alastor sits there with an eyebrow raised and says "Would she?" I stood there as if in doubt, Alastor then says "I have another proposition for you, I will continue only to watch, I won't contact you or talk to you and you don't interfere with my work from now on...is it a deal?" Alastor then stood out his hand that was glowing green, after what I had heard about Alastor's deals I should know better but I stupidly still asked "What's the catch?"

That’s why the UN has its full focus on “The Humanity Initiative”. The field of genetics shows promising results, but are years from ready. If bombs were to fly tomorrow, something must survive. Recent VR technology has a potential candidate for that something.Farah Al Farzha never plays online, she loathes the very idea of it. She is in love with reality, and competitive fencing is her way to prove it. But when she reluctantly went online, she couldn’t exit, or at least a copy of her consciousness couldn’t.Human, but juridically speaking no more, Farah struggles in a game that would’ve been illegal. To her only consolation, the game is modeled after reality, a place foreign to the gaming brats around her. But what demands do the UN put on potential ‘human’ survivor candidates, and how will natural selection be replaced, when reality is no more? _______________________________________________________________________
