"Y'know I can't stay here forever."

I poked the plate with the fork as Stella stared at me closely. Or was it intensely? I nervously chuckled and scooted out of the seat, and head towards the door. "Why are you leaving?" Stella asked, and I froze. "Uhh...I have to go? Y'know, it'd be nice if you treat Stolas well for once." I said, and Stella shot me a quick glare at the last sentence. I smiled brightly and opened the door. "DON'T ACT LIKE A BIRD BETCH!" And with that, I shut the door and walked down the front porch of the castle.

I walked down the pathway, and my phone rang in my pocket. I pulled it out of my pocket and answered it. "What?" 

"HEY! ARE YOU FREE TODAY?!"

"No, Blitz. Call later."

"AYO! DON'T TREAT YA BOY LIKE THAT!"

"Ya ain't no boy of mine."

"Haha! I won't give up that easily sweetheart-"

"Stop."

"Anyway, ya wanna go to the Harvest Moon Festival with me?! I asked Loonie Toonie and Millie and Moxxie. They will be there."

"Ok, sure. Bye."

"Wait-"

BEEP!

The I.M.P van drove quickly into the ranch. Millie was bouncing in her seat, and she flung the door open as she saw her parents standing outside of the ranch. I hopped outside, and Blitzo followed not long after. Millie and her parents had a happy reunion, and she showed Moxxie to them, which I saw her parents shot a dirty look to. "Look at Moxxie's tiny wittle babwy fingwers!" Blitzo said, pointing to Moxxie's hands. Moxxie rolled his eyes and turned away. Just then, we heard a sound of a horse galloping and Blitzo gasped.

"I suppose ya haven't met Striker yet." Millie's father mentioned. I turned towards the ranch and saw an imp, riding on a horse.

'Striker' wore a ripped cowboy hat and had white hair. It's true. He had a red bandana around his neck and wore cowboy clothing and his horse was some sort of aqua colour. It was pretty cool. Blitzo was admiring the horse, and I could see some sparkles in his eyes. I looked at Striker once he got off of the horse and he looked from Millie's father, and the rest of us. When he looked at me, his grin (smirk?) got larger.

"Well, howdy! Oh, lookie here, you must be the famous Mildred, eh?" Striker asked, turning back to Millie. "Heard some good things about you from your folks, little lady."

"Oh, pfft hehe-" Millie said, and shook Striker's hand.

I stood there awkwardly, before being my thoughts being interrupted by Striker. "Oh! Who are you?" Striker smirked, and I saw Blitzo staring at Striker intensely. It was weird. Sorta brings yandere vibes, but ok. "I'm Y/n!" I said and like Millie, shook Striker's hand. "That's a nice name for you." Striker winked and chuckled slightly. I heard a growl from behind and knew that it was Blitzo. Loona was busy texting on her phone, but she did send glances to Striker at some point.

Striker nodded and turned towards Blitzo. "You're the boss of I.M.P, eh? Well nice to meet ya. I'm Striker." Striker said, and Blitzo stopped growling. "It's pretty impressive how you decided to make a company. It's rare to see an imp make a company."

Blitzo grinned, but then stuttered out some words. "Uh..yeah! Yeah, it's p-pretty impressive. Haha, I suppose." 

I giggled and then turned towards Moxxie who was showing himself off, trying to impress Millie's parents. They both gave him dirty looks and Moxxie went over to a demon pig. He tried to murder it but couldn't. I looked over the fence, and Loona was taking a video of Moxxie's failure. Blitzo cheered and Millie watched in nervousness. Striker smirked and hopped over the fence, onto the pig. Or maybe it was boar. I don't know. He pushed Moxxie off and proceeded to stab the pig, and it collapsed. Moxxie growled at Striker when he passed by, but Striker shrugged it off.

Loona, Blitzo, Striker and Millie's parents walked to the house. Moxxie was on the ground, and Millie tried to help him up. Thinking this was fine, I trotted over to Millie's parents' house and walked in. Another imp came by, who wore a black top and a red bandana on the head. She had the same colour hair as Millie, but with a little bit of white on the top. 

"Oh hey, haven't seen ya before." The imp said, stopping. "I'm Sallie Mae, and I think your name's Y/n, right?" 

"Oh! Yep." I said, and Sallie Mae chuckled.

"Thought so. Anyway, see ya around." She waved and walked over to the house.

"Welcome to the Harvest Moon Festival!" Stolas announced, on stage. I froze when I saw him. Uh-oh, he was here, too? Stolas scanned the crowd and flashed me a small grin. I shrunk into the crowd, to avoid further suspicion. "I'm happy to kick off the start of these games! This will challenge the toughest people around here! So, show off your skill and dominance!" I thought it was over, however Stolas had some more to say. "Especially that little bean over there." He continued, smiling at my direction.

Striker sent me a quick smirk and Blitzo mumbled something. "What." I mentioned.

Striker jumped over a huge fence, avoiding the puddle on the ground, and Moxxie followed, struggling to hold on. He clawed onto the fence, but eventually fell down to the puddle and got chomped by a demon shark. Ouch. In another game, the imps were playing tug of war, and so far, it looks like Striker, Moxxie and Blitzo were winning. They did win, but Moxxie fell into the water. 

"And so, our winners are Blitzo and Striker!" Stolas said, and Moxxie looked at the two.

Striker began to sing a song, and he winked at me at the start. I smiled back at him and Blitzo looked from me to him and then back to me in confusion. Moxxie mumbled something and hopped away from the crowd and into the house. I watched him do so, and after Striker finished singing his song, he followed him.

It was suspicious, but I suppose i'll find out later.

-An hour later-

It's been an hour. Millie and Blitzo are now gone, and so is Moxxie and Striker. Basically, everyone left, so I decided to go to the house. I heard some gun shots and some weird noises, so I opened the door and hurried inside. Well, not really hurriedly, but anyways. I opened a random door, and inside was very suspicious. Striker was on top of Blitzo, Moxxie was weak, and held a gun in his hands. Millie was in the corner of the room. I shrugged and pulled Striker away from Blitzo.

"Yo." I said blandly and Striker looked at me. "Kay we'll be going now. Adios, amigo." I mentioned and pulled Moxxie and Millie out of the room. Blitzo followed later on and clung onto my leg. Before that, I waved quickly to Striker.

"Haha, see you soon sweetheart..." Striker mumbled.

Moxxie was having an argument with Millie's parents. Or I think he was defending Millie. Which was sweet. I stood with Loona awkwardly and she turned around, going towards the van. I followed on and Blitzo hopped in after saying some awkward and suspicious things to Moxxie. Although, that could be how he compliments Moxxie.

"Anyway, let's go!" Blitzo smiled, and once Millie and Moxxie hopped in, he started the van.

...

"Sorry, ma'am, I failed to kill the target at the festival."

Stella tapped her fingers on the desk and yelled into the phone. "I don't care who you have to go through, just MAKE IT HAPPEN! I want that cheating prick dead!"

"Yes ma'am." Striker mumbled and turned the phone off.

Stella slammed the phone and Stolas looked at her and smiled. However, once he noticed her angry expression, he looked back at his food. Meanwhile, Octavia was vibing to her music, not hearing the argument.
