8.) We've Come For You, HELLBLAZER!!!

More than a week has passed since Diablos and Angelos took over as leaders of Le Destrucìon. We now find ourselves back at Destrucìon's base where everyone but HellBlazer dabbles in idle conversations.

Joe: "It's been more than a week, and I still can't wrap my head around how strong you two are! *Gulp* *Gulp* *Gulp*.... Aaaah! This is some good stuff!"

Diablos: "Hehehahahahaaa! Crazy to think there's this many powerhouses in one group!"

Angelos: "Indeed it's quite rare to see outside of civilizations and organizations. It's quite fun having been able to battle you all."

Diablos: *Gulp* *Gulp*... Gah, indeed! From what I saw and felt! It seems Sonya and Joe, the siblings! The duo!.... Is your strongest two, huh?"

Meilee: "Well, we're all relative to one another, but they definitely have the edge."

Taishin: "Yeah, but we'll catch up to those two for sure!" *Gulp* *Gulp*

"Is that so…. Hmm."said Angelos while staring in Tailee's direction. Giving her the raised eyebrow look out of pure suspicion.

Tailee: "Hahaha!! Yeah, we'll definitely… catch up…before..longgg."

Angelos: "Hm….. Well, I believe you'll catch up as well! Cheers, Tailee?"

Tailee: "Cheers! Hahaha!"

The two tap their mugs together and begin guzzling down the premium liquor. Though they were already well into their tenth rounds. Drunk off of their asses as they all get to know one another better.

Kitiro: "Gwamgod!! Who made dis damn brand of liquor, mahn? It's so sweet yet, bittah and Zesty! Perfect balance for a good time, dontcha knoe!?! This brand is exquisite, mahn!"

Sonya: "Well crazy enough. The current Goddess of Life made this brand of liquor. Hence the name "Gaia's Drop of Life!" ."

Angelos: "G-gaia….. H-huh?"

Diablos: "G-goddess of L-Life, was it?"

Sonya: "Yyyeah? You guys…. Ok? You seem shaken and throttled after hearing Gaia."

Meilee: "Yeah. Are you guys alright?"

Tailee and Dimitri: "Hmm…."

Everyone starts to gaze at Diablos and Angelos as their behavior becomes a bit… fishy. They started to stutter and mimic a state a panic after hearing Gaia.

Angelos: "Yeah, y-yeah! It was just… I lost consciousness for a bit."

Diablos: "Same here… for like a brief 5 seconds."

Tailee: "You guys seemed pretty conscious to me."

Demetri: "Yeah, man. There's gotta be more to it than just losing consciousness. It's like, just hearing Lady Gaia's name makes you go blank."

Angelos: "…...G- GAIAAAA!....."

Sonya: "Huh!?!"

Taishin: "Woah!"

Joe: "What the??"

Angelos: "Gaiaaaaaaa!!! H-heell. H-h-heeeeellp m-mee!"

Diablos: "Is that… Is that what happened to me as well?"

Sonya: "Yeah…. Just this time… it doesn't sound like Angelos is there."

Diablos: "Weird… why? Why would we call for Gaia? We don't even know her. Nor have we had the honor of meeting her."

Tailee: "It's quite peculiar indeed. I'm hoping Blaze can tell us something once he's back."

Tailee glares at Angelos as he pants, gasping for air. His eyes were a shade of blood red while his pupils were a shade of yellow. They looked almost identical to HellBlazer's own eyes. Though the look began to fade after a few seconds had gone by.

Angelos: *Huff* *huff* *huff*..... "NGH!" (GAIA!)

Gaia: "Huh? What!? That voice. Whatever or whoever voice that was had sounded just like…. But there's no way! Zigorim!!"

Zigorim: "Yo?"

Gaia: "I think I found where,"he" is."

Zigorim: "Well, let's get a move on then. I do have an organization to run after all."

As said before, Zigorim is the founder of the Assassin Corps. As well as the creator of the concept, assassination. He assists with the getting rid of the holy and malicious corruption that threatens the balance.

Gaia: "Right, let's head there now!" *Glare*

Diablos: "Aye bro, you alright? Like, you straight now or what?"

Angelos: "Yeah, I'm good, bro. Though for a second…."

Everyone: "Hmm?"

Angelos: "I felt someone else take control. It was as if they threw my psyche off the controls and took over for a second. It was….quite weird."

Diablos: "I felt the same. Though it seems you got the worst of it."

Angelos: "Yeah. Sorry to have startled everyone."

Tailee: "All good! I'm glad you're ok."

Joe: "Indeed brotha! *Gulp* *Gulp*"

Taishin: "All good."

Dimitri: …

Angelos: "Thanks, y'all!"

Sonya: "No problem, Angelos. Guess we shouldn't go saying her name till we find out what that was."

Diablos: "Yeah, that'd be for the best."

Joe: "So do you two know where HellBlazer went?"

Diablos: "No, actually. He just said he'd be leaving this universe for a mission he's on."

Joe: "Hmm. I wonder what kind of mission calls for his participation."

Tailee: "Who knows. All I know is. It's got to be dangerous if he chose to go it alone. It's probably something we could never fathom."

Angelos: "Indeed! (Still, who else is within mine and Diablos' bodies?)

Dimitri sits solemnly to the side as he stares at Angelos and Diablos. Wondering what, might the two of them be, exactly. And how dangerous they'll be for the team. Their outburst raises the question of it it'll happen during an important battle.

Dimitri: "Hey! I do have to put my two cents in here. What happens if an enemy brings her up during missions. You guys freeze and the whole team is fucked! Y'all best control your shit before we go about doing missions. If not, we'll all die since Blazer doesn't do missions with us."

Angelos: ….

Diablos: "Hmm, dont worry. We'll definitely have this controlled by then. Trust my word!"

Diablos reaches out his hand for a hand shake from Dimitri, but…

Dimitri: "Hmm, we'll see. We'll see."

Dimitri began to walk off from the group. Still questioning his new leaders and their mysterious origins.

Diablos: "Oh."

Kitiro: "uh…"

Sonya: "Hm."

Dimitri: "I'm going to my room. Yall stay hot man."

Diablos: "Guess he's right honestly. We can hinder missions. Especially since that presence within us is growing. As if what it seeks draws near!"

Sonya: "What!?"

Joe: "Hmm."

While Le Destrucìon figures out future issues. In a distant far off universe. Exactly more than 50 universes away from universe 9 of Colossaverse 1. The Goddess of Life and her best friend Zigorim race in the direction universe 9 is in.

Gaia: "Lets go Zigorim! Get a move on bruh!!!"

Zigorim: "Girl! I'm right behind you! But don't you think we're rushing too fast here?! We've cleared an entire universe in less than 40 minutes!"

Gaia suddenly stops and stares angrily at Zigorim.

Gaia: "No! We're not going nearly fast enough since we're not even close to being there yet! I can sense my younger cousin again. Death. He's definitely coming back. After all, someone called out to me! It had to be him!"

Zigorim: "Alright, alright! Let's go full speed then and start clearing shit. You're not the only one that misses him. It's been 1000 years."

Gaia: *Mwah* "Thanks Best friend. Now let's blast off!" *PEW*

Gaia and Zigorim take off at great speeds. Clearing 2 universes in a matter of a second. Now with these two having made the decision to hurry, we find ourselves heading back towards universe 9. But not all the way there. We stop at universe 11 where we find HellBlazer on an Earth-like planetoid full of feral beasts. There is a forest there that stretches across the entirety of a single continent. It was there that we could see a fire the size of Hawaii at its center. You could see wild beasts scurrying about as they watch their brethren burn to a crisp. At the center of this carnage creating fire, we find HellBlazer finishing off what seems to be a bystander of some sort.

???: "You bastard! Haydes sent you here didn't he?"

*SLASH*

???: "AAAAAAHaha haaa! Dammit! Dammit you bitch! Just end it already! I know Hayd-"

*SLASH* *SLASH*

???: "AAAAAAAHHH!!!"

HellBlazer: "Stop the bullshit heathen! Just give me the map that leads to the teller!"

*PSSTEW* "Fuck you Blazer. Might as well kill me now, cause the map is gone and so i-"

HellBlazer: *wipe* "Bleh. Should've known you'd spit on me. But that's alright, because you've gone and activated my contract."

"Ngh… n-no!"

Hellblazer: "So now that you're trapped still and can only tell the truth!"

"N-ngh n-noo!!"

HellBlazer: "Where. The fuck! Is that heathen, The Teller?!?"

"A-aaah! H-he's…. Ng-ngh."

HellBlazer: "Hmm."

HellBlazer raises the potency of his contract. Causing the Broker to become completely obedient. No longer able to resist the temptation of truth.

HellBlazer: "All this just for some info on the whereabouts of the Teller. First, no map. Now, no word of mouth on his exact position. Hmmph! Contracts really are handy! Now tell me….where, is the Teller!?"

Broker: "He's in Universe 9!"

HellBlazer: "What!?"

Broker: "He resides on a planet in the fi-" *Stab*

HellBlazer: "What the?! Who the hell threw that!? Dammit!"

Sanjin: "So you're HellBlazer huh?"

HellBlazer: "Hm? Who's asking?"

Sanjin: "Sanjin, Sanjin Yoleek. I and my brother Bujuro are God class Non-mortals from the Assassin's Corps."

HellBlazer: "Hmm?!(Assassins huh? And….) *sniff* *sniff* (They have the stench of Vashjai and Tristan allll over 'em.) Who sent you?"

Bujuro: "No one. We came because you're the closest to Haydes. Outside of his own family. Even then, his younger brother is looking to end him as well."

HellBlazer: "Vashjai's trying to kill Haydes too?"

Sanjin: "Yeah, Tristan too."

Bujuro: "Yeah."

HellBlazer: "Tch! Doesn't matter!"

Sanjin: *Glare*

HellBlazer: "I'll never talk and from what I can sense. You two don't stand even a slither of a chance against me!"

Bujuro: "Tch! We'll see you fool!"

Sanjin: "Indeed we will."

HellBlazer: "Yeah, riiiight. Let's see just how far y'all can go!"

*FWIP* *FWIP*

Sanjin and Bujuro dash at HellBlazer full of killing intent. Baring their weapons at him as they close in.

HellBlazer: "Whoo hoo. Here they come! WAR-BLAZE!!!"

The 2 assassins don't take long at all finding HellBlazer! Now the battle for answers has begun! The revival of Death draws closer!
