Chapter 23

Is Terpiscore any help?

Not at first...

"The Devil? Here? Naked?!" Terpischore asked in shock.

"Is there an echo in here?" Thalia asked with a smirk.

"Oh, shut up!" Terpischore spat, getting to her feet. "I already have enough on my plate right now..."

"Hello, Terpischore!"

Terpischore's eyes widened as she looked up to see Lucy and Kyle walking through the doors to the theater, Buddy and Hailey close behind.

"Twit-two!" Thalia whistled as she fanned herself, eyeing up both Kyle and Buddy as she pulled at her collar. "Did it just get hot in here, or is it just you two handsome studs?"

"Back off!" Lucy growled before turning to Terpischore. "Hey, T. Sorry, to burst in like this, but -"

"Lucy, ordinarily I would be just tickled pink to see you," Terpischore interrupted, "but tonight is the opening night of, what I hope is, my biggest show to date; a salute to musical theater. So, if you can kindly leave in the next four hours, I will glady chat with you, your new boyfriend, and... Whoever they are."

"Look, this is really important." Lucy argued. "Long story super short, I got sprayed by holy water and now Kyle and I need to preform The Ritual to get my powers back. And apparently, the area with the most spiritual energy at the moment is here."

"'The Ritual'? In my theater?!" Terpischore asked in shock. "Lucy, I'm sorry, but that is simply out of the question! I have a full house tonight; both dieties and mortals! And there's nowhere you two can get it on without mortals seeing all this happening! The bathrooms will be crowded, the supply closets could barrely fit just the two off you, let alone all your demon friends. Where the hell is this anyway?!"

"Well, judging from the tingling in my spine, it seems to be coming from..." Lucy trailed off as she pointed to the stage.

"... ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!" Terpischore shreiked. "This is a theater! Not a... A... An adult movie theater!"

"Then why does it say no one under eighteen can come in to see the show?" Hailey asked.

"Because this is a salute to nine of the more adult themed musicals." Terpischore replied, "Y'know: Gypsy, Jekyll & Hyde, Chicago, Hedwig and The Angry Itch..."

"R.E.N.T., Avenue Q..." Thalia said, turning to her sister. "By the way, for the record -"

"Yes. We're keeping in 'You Can Be as Loud as The Hell You Want'." Terpischore sighed, shaking her head. "Listen, I want to help you, Lucy. I do. That said -"

*Ring!* *Ring!*

"Ugh! Hold that thought." Terpischore said as she stormed off the side office.

"She seems... Er, nice?" Buddy said.

"Sorry, this is really stressful for her." Euterpe said, "Our other five sisters are coming out tonight, and she really wants things to go right. By the way, I'm Euterpe, The Muse of Music."

"Name's Thalia, Muse of Comedy." Thalia greeted. "Please to meet you."

"I love your shirt." Hailey said, "I'm a big fan of that loveable annoyance myself."

"Thank you." Thalia replied, polishing her nails on her shirt. "My best work, if I do say so myself."

"You didn't make ALF." Melpomene deadpanned.

"No, but I was the one who gave his creator the idea in the first place. Just like how you gave Poe the idea for The Red **** Mask."

"That's 'The Masque of The Red ****'." Melpomene said in a monotone voice.

"Anyway, Ms. Sunshine and Rainbows here is my twin sister, Melpomene." Thalia said as she wrapped an arm around the stoic goth. "She's the Muse of Tragedy."

"Like my relation to you..."

"Now that just stings."

"Well, it's nice to meet all of you," Kyle said, "but Lucy and I desperately -"

"WHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTT?!"

"... And what is she the muse of? Horror?" Hailey asked with a yelp as she clung tightly to Buddy...

Something that didn't go unnoticed by Thalia, the muse merely sighing as she gave a sideways glace and said, "Figures. All the cute mortals are taken."


"Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Oh, sweet merciful God! YES!" Roxie screeched as Grant pounded her from behind doggy style in the bush. "Harder, Baby! Harder!"

"Ooh, you like that, Foxy Roxie?!" Grant grunted as raised his hand into the air. "Well, how do you like this, Baby Girl?!"

*SPANK!*

"YES! Harder, Daddy! I've been a bad girl!" Roxie screamed, digging her fingers into the dirt as Grant continued to spank her. "Harder, Daddy! HARDER!"

"Oh God!" Grant groaned as he leaned down and bit gently down on and sucked the nape of Roxie's neck, making the woman moan lustfully. Breaking away, he growled, "Bet I'm way better than my exes or my sister, huh?"

"I... I nev- Oh, God!" Roxie panted, "I never act- Oh! Grant! I'm gonna... I'm gonna..."

"Me too, Baby Girl!" Grant grunted as he continued to pound into Roxie. After a few more grunts and groans, the two let out a pair of loud, primal and animalistic screams of pleasure as Grant exploded inside Roxie, his seed filling her up as the sweaty couple panted heavily.

"You... You just came inside me..." Roxie panted, a smile on her face as the two finally broke away. "You're so lucky I was on the pill..."

"Yeah..." Grant panted as he wrapped an arm around Roxie, kissing her. "You were way better than any of my exes! Better that Janet, better than Loraine, and Traci only wishes she was better than you! I just hope that I was better than they were!"

"Uh, ..." Hailey replied sheepishly, "I... Never actually slept with your exes. I... Only spread that rumor around to get under your skin..."

"... You what?" Grant asked in shock, getting to his feet. "You... I... This... Are... There's... Why?!"

"I... I was jealous because I thought you and Hailey were..."

"Me and Hailey?!" Grant laughed, "The only way that brainless brick wall with feet would date me is if I weighed half a ton!"

"Well, I mean I know that now!" Roxie stated. "Would you had asked me out back then?"

"I mean," Grant said as he sat back down, "I probably would have."

"Wait, I just realized. How do we know this isn't Cupid's arrows talking?"

"Honestly, I think we stopped being under that influence midway through our sex session." Grant replied. A second later, he raised an eyebrow. "Wait, then why did that unicorn attack you at the zoo?"

"Oh, I did actually... Sleep with your sister." Roxie replied. Holding up her hands defensively, she added, "In my defense, brandy was involved and I had no idea she was your sister at the time."

Grant was quiet.

"If it means anything, you're a million times better than she ever was! Especially when she brought out..." Roxie shivered, "Big Boy."

"... Yeah, that does sound like Clara." Grant admitted, "She can go a bit... Overboard."

Roxie and Grant sat in awkward silence for a bit longer.

"Hey, Grant?" Roxie asked, getting the man's attention. "Do you... I mean, assuming that the effects of that magic arrow has worn off, do you actually... Y'know, love me?"

"I... I guess I do. You?"

"I guess so, too."

"So, are we... Boyfriend and girlfriend now?"

"I mean, we just had sex and admitted we kinda sorta love each other." Roxie replied, "Can't really be friends after that, can we?"

"I guess not." Grant said with a shrug.

"Y'know, I have a cabin that I rent on the weekends. Maybe we can spend some time there for a week once this is over?" Roxie suggested, "You and me, snuggling up in front of the fire on a drop bear skin rug," she gave an evil smirk, "The Devil's head mounted over my fireplace."

"Y'know what? I think I'd like that." Grant said as he stood up, helping Roxie to her feet. "Let's go skin us a Devil."


"Of all the terrible, asinine, horrific, down right rotten luck!" Terpischore groaned as she stormed out of her office, downing a bottle of bourbon.

"What happened?" Euterpe asked.

"Wouldn't you know it?! Heather, Jenny, and Frank cancelled on us!" Terpischore groaned, "Heather was the one for the opening salute to Gypsy, and Jenny and Frank were the main stars of the finale! It's opening night, and we have no one to -"

The Muse of Dance stopped as she looked over Lucy and Kyle again, looking the naked couple up and down as she gasped while a smile came to her face.

"That's it! It's the perfect compromise!" Terpischore exclaimed, "I let you two preform your ritual on my stage, if you two become my stars for the finale!"

"You want us to..." Kyle said, rubbing the back of his neck. "I... I don't know about -"

"Please, I may be a Goddess of The Arts, but I'm not above begging!" Terpischore pleaded. "I scratch your back, you scratch mine?"

"The Ritual requires me and Kyle to be having sex with each other, Terpischore." Lucy said, "How are we going to get away with that on your stage in front of an audience?"

"No, see, that's the beauty of it!" Terpischore explained, "The finale is a salute to The Rocky Horror Show. Specifically the musical number, 'Touch-A, Touch-A, Touch Me'. We had a bed and everything for the props, though the actors weren't actually going to screw each other. No one in the audience will even know you're actually going all the way. Hell! You might not even need to mindwipe the mortals after all!"

Kyle and Lucy looked at one another nervously. "Are you going to be okay with this?" Lucy asked.

"Not really, but if it helps you get your powers back..." Kyle replied, trailing off as he turned to Terpischore. "We'll do it."

"Great! Now that only leaves a replacement to fill in for Heather who was doing 'Let Me Entertain You' for our opening." Terpischore said. "Can any of your friends fill in?"

"I don't think so." Lucy said, "Satie gets stage fright, Bee's never seen a musical other that Paint Your Wagon and Oklahoma, Levi can't carry a tune in a bucket, Ozzie can carry a tune but has a habit of ad-libbing if she forgets the words, and the show would be about a month long if Belle did it."

"What about that Mammon girl?"

"Oh, Mammo is a master of karaoke, an excellent singer, and was in the audience for the original run." Lucy said, "Only problem is that, unless you don't want ninety-nine percent of the box office..."

"I get the picture."

"Ah, screw it! I'll do it!" Hailey said, stepping forward.

"Are ya'll sure, Hailey?" Buddy asked in concern.

"I've been pretty much just as naked as those two have been all night." Hailey replied with a nod. "May as well rip this bandaid off now."

"Now, I can't just hire a mortal off the bat without an interview." Terpischore said, "Do you have any experience with theater?"

"I was the starring role in my high school senior production of Wind in The Willows." Hailey responded.

"... You were casted as Mr. Toad?" Terpischore asked skeptically, raising an eyebrow.

"No. I was The Willow."

"... Y'know what? I'm running out of time and we need an opening number, so I don't care. You get the job."


"So, I just want to see if I get this straight." Satie said as she and Pazuzu stood next to her car while the latter filled up Buddy's van at a gas station. "Cupid's stray arrow struck you, and now you've fallen in love with both me and Pazuzu? And you want to start a relationship with the both of us?"

"If you'll let me." Lilith replied, sitting on her motorcycle. "I know after all I did, it's not really likely but..."

"Look, I know that you are now not the same Lilith as you were before." Satie said as Lilith looked away sadly. "That said, Pazuzu and I might need to talk about this."

"Wait... Is that a 'maybe'?"

"It's a 'We'll see'." Satie replied, giving a hopeful Lilith a smile before feeling a chill up her spine. "They found it already?"

"They found The Ritual Site?" Pazuzu asked.

"Yeah, and it's not to far! Let's go!" Satie said as she climbed into her car and Pazuzu hopped into Buddy's van, the two vehicles driving off as Lilith rode after them on her motorcycle...

Unaware of Grant and Roxie smiling evilly from the bushes as they ran after the three demons.


"Bye, Hank!" The Receptionist called out to The Nerd, both fully dressed as the latter left. "I'll see you at the next Galactic Combat Con! Maybe we can even share a room there, too."

"Call me, Kaylee!" Hank said as he left with the goofiest smile on his face...

A smile that was plastered on Kaylee's face as well as she sighed blissfully, unaware of Ozzie walking right up to her.

"Well, well." Ozzie said with a chuckle, "I left you with the dag for a naughty, and you came out with a fella."

"Yeah... He's perfect." Kaylee said, "I wonder if he knows I snuck my lucky Galactic Combat panties in his pants pocket?"

"Well, the bloke will be in for quite the shock." Ozzie laughed. "Why don't you go take the rest of the night off, Sheila?"

"Thanks, Ms. Ozzie." Kaylee said with a smile as she went to clock out.

Ozzie was just about to sit at the desk when a chill ran up her spine. "Crikey! Already?" She asked before summoning a portal, pausing before she stepped foot near it. "Hang on! I ain't going to this thing with just me hands!"

Ozzie then pulled out her phone as she scrolled through her contacts, coming to a stop on one number and speed dialing it. "Oi! Anubis? It's Ozzie. Say, you and Bastet aren't doing anything tonight, right?"


"I never want to even hear the word streak in any context ever again!" Mammo groaned once she and Charity were in their penthouse suite, throwing herself to the bed as she laid out on her stomach as Charity sat down next to her.

"I'm really sorry about this, Snuggle Bunny." Charity said as she laid next to her wife and hugged her tightly. "I didn't realize that I traumatized you that badly back then with those pranks. If I could, I'd go back in time and slap myself silly for doing this to you!"

"Hey now!" Mammo said with a chuckle as she sat up, allowing the towel to slip away from her body as she reached over and undid the towel around Charity. "That's my wife you're talking about, Missy!"

The Virtue and Demon Lord laughed playfully as they kissed each other, a chill running up Mammo's spine...

"Ah, Crap!" Mammo groaned in annoyance, "Lucy found The Ritual Spot. That girl had better make our Tahiti vacation for the next decade!"

Charity giggled as she watched her wife open a portal with a wave of her hand...


"Oh, Baby, you have no idea how much I missed this." Levi panted as she and Uriel laid in Levi's waterbed at the aquarium, the archangel cuddling with the demon lord as whale calls echoed through the room. "I missed you so much."

"I missed you too, Flumenel." Uriel said, snuggling into her girlfriends embrace. "Or do you want me to refer to you as Levi?"

"Whichever you want." Levi said, holding Uriel tighter. "I'm just glad to have you back after a billion years."

"Levi kind of rolls off the tongue better." Uriel said. "And the feeling is mutual. I'd do anything to show you that I'm happy to have you back."

"Really?" Levi asked, "So you'd burst down the pearly gates and admit to every last angel most of, if not all, the credit went to me?"

"Yes, I would." Uriel replied.

"Would you go skinny dipping in the polar part of the aquarium?"

"An odd way to show it, but I guess so. Maybe yes if you join."

"Would you kick that Jörmungarder bitch in the lady bits for using her illusions to make me think I was back here taking a bubble bath when I was actually in the stingray touch pool, making me make a complete idiot of myself?"

"Oh, if that himbo Thor hasn't tracked her down and destroyed her yet, then yes; I am definitely kicking her ass!"

"Would you do something that was so dangerous and crazy that everyone in Heaven would think you'd gone nuts?"

"Depends. How 'dangerous and crazy'?"

"Marrying me." Levi replied as she picked up an oyster from nearby and tapped the top shell with her finger, causing it to open up and reveal a pearl the size of a golf ball. "Me, old Shelly here, and her descendants have been working on this baby for six hundred years now."

"Levi..." Uriel said is a shocked whisper, staring her girlfriend in the eyes as tears started to form. Half a second later, the archangel wrapped her arms around Levi and happily sobbed. "Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes, times infinity! I'll marry you!"

The two kissed happily, Levi placing Uriel onto her as a chill ran up her spine. "Well, well. Lucy found The Ritual site. Let's pick this up where we left off there, hmm?" Levi asked playfully, despite the tears of happiness in her eyes.

"I can't wait to see the look on everyone's faces when they hear the news." Uriel said, wiping the tears from her eyes as Levi opened the portal.


"Sorry, Partner." Bee said to the exterminator at her door. "This place hasn't had a bug or serpent here in a while. Never really."

"Sorry, Ma'am." The Exterminator replied, tipping his hat. "We just got some reports from some of your neighbors that something that sounded like a war between a swarm of bees and an army of snakes was on the premises."

"Well, I can assure you, Sir, even if them critters where here, there'd be more love than war." Bee said as The Exterminator left, "Ya'll have a good night now, you here!"

Once the man was gone, Bee closed, locked, and leaned against the door before shivering. "Good Golly, Ms. Molly!" She said as she sat down next to Q on the couch, "Mortal or not, those fellers give me the heebie-jeebies!"

"Well, mi pequeño bichito del amor," Q said with a warm smile as he wrapped an arm around her, "he's gone now."

"I know, I know. It's just... Darn it! My spine's still tingling from that feller." Bee said. Half a second later, she raised an eyebrow. "Wait just a bronco buckin' second. That ain't from fear, that's... Sweet Mother of Abraham Lincoln! Lucy's found it! We better get a move on!"


At Laze E. Co., Belle smiled happily as she laid out on the couch, an equally naked Aergia sprawled out on top of her as the Goddess of Laziness snored loudly and drooled with her head resting on top of Belle's boobs.

"If... I... Didn't... Already... Know... She... Was... A... Greek... Goddess... Before... Tonight..." Belle whispered as she slowly stroked Aergia's hair, still recalling how the Goddess had swung by earlier and admitted her feelings to her; which in turn, led to a wild, passionate, steamy, yet surprisingly slow, love making session between the two. Belle had just kissed Aergia's forehead when a chill ran up her spine.

"Looks... Like... Lucy's... Found... The... Ritual... Spot." Belle said as she slowly lifted her arm and summoned the portal.

"Do we have to go now...?" Aergia whined groggily as she woke up.

"Lucy... Needs... Me... For... The... Ritual." Belle replied. "And... You'll... Be... Needed... Too."

"... And now I'm okay with this." Aergia said as she got up and scooped Belle into her arms, walking into the portal without a second thought.


"Jackpot!" Grant said as he and Roxie hid in the bushes outside the theater, several cars out front. Including Buddy's van...

The two naked and smelly new lovers streaked towards the van, Grant opening the back doors as he pulled out a shotgun and Roxie grabbed a flail. The two smiled at one another and nodded.

"Let's go skin us a Devil." Roxie said with an evil grin.

How do things start off for the show and The Ritual?
