This was a terrible idea Mike thought to him self as Luna bubbly personality began to get on his nerves. She chirped excitedly about every little thing, from the "adorable" demonic imps to the "fascinating" torture devices.
Mike rolled his eyes, his annoyance growing with each passing moment he has had to endure this for about two days now. "Can you please just focus on finding the Helo?" he snapped.
Luna pouted, her lower lip jutting out. "Spoilsport. I'm just trying to make the most of our time in Here."
Mike sighed. "Well, can you at least try to be serious for once?"
Luna grinned mischievously. "Serious? In Hell? Mike, Mike, Mike... you need to learn to laugh in the face of danger!"
Mike shook his head, muttering under his breath. "I'm stuck with a crazy person in Hell..."
Luna skipped ahead, her silver hair bouncing with each step. "Come on, Mike! Lighten up! We're on an adventure!"
Mike trudged behind her, his eyes fixed on her bouncy form. "I'm starting to think the demons are less dangerous than you..."
Luna turned back, a mock-offended expression on her face. "Hey, watch it! I'm a perfectly lovely person... for a werewolf... Who has been tormented for years..."
Mike facepalmed. "You're impossible, Luna."
Luna grinned. "That's why you love me, Mike!"
Mike's eyes widened in horror. "What?! No, I don't!"
Luna winked. "Oh, come on... you secretly adore me!"
Mike's face turned bright red as he spluttered, "I do not!"
Luna chuckled, her laughter echoing through the caverns of Hell. "Oh, this is going to be a fun ..."
As they both ventured deeper into the underworld, navigating through treacherous landscapes and avoiding deadly creatures. As they traversed a narrow, winding path, a figure emerged from the shadows.
"Ah, Mike," Vex said, voice dripping with malice. "I've been waiting for you. You're just in time to join me in this pitiful existence."
"Vex, you traitor," Mike retorted, hand on the hilt of the sword which he had kept with him after defeating that other demon. "I should have known you'd end up here, crawling with the other vermin."
Vex sneered. "You're one to talk, Mike. You're the reason I'm here. You ruined my life, and now I'll make sure you suffer an eternity in this pit."
Luna growled, sensing danger. As she bent onto her hands an feet .
Vex snarled, drawing his sword. "I see you found a stray hmm Mike she is nothing more than a dog who will betray anybody for her own gain why do u think she is locked down here!"
"Oh, you know nothing about me," Luna said, her voice steady. "But I know you're a traitor who sold out his own kind. You're scum, Vex."
Mike was shocked to see that the two off them knew each other.
With a swift strike, Vex attacked Mike, but Luna intervened, taking the blow meant for him. She yelped in pain as Vex's sword sliced through her shoulder, causing her to stumble.
"You're a fool for protecting him, Luna," Vex spat. "He's not worth your loyalty."
Mike reacted swiftly, drawing his own sword and engaging Vex in a fierce battle. "I don't know how you both know each other but one thing I know is I can't let you hurt my companion ."
As the fight intensified, Luna's injuries worsened, forcing her to remain in her wolf form. Mike knew they had to end the battle quickly.
"You're weak, Vex," Mike said, his sword clashing with Vex's. "You always were. That's why you had to resort to treachery."
Vex snarled, his face twisted in rage. "Shut up, Mike! You know nothing about me!"
"I know enough," Mike said, his sword slicing through Vex's defenses. "I know you're a coward who can't face the consequences of his actions."
With a growl vex hair started to get longer as he bent his feet and started turning into a wolf immediately Luna lunched her self at him half way through his transformation sending him flying into the bubbling flames down below and his screams of pain can be heard.
"We need to find shelter and tend to your wounds," Mike said, concern etched on his face.
Luna nodded weakly, her wolf form trembling. Mike knew they had to keep moving, but for now, they had to prioritize Luna's recovery.

Vex, whose real name was Agent Victor Edwards, was a rogue agent who had worked with Mike on various missions in the real world. However, their partnership soured when Mike discovered Vex's corrupt activities, including embezzlement and treason. Mike had threatened to expose Vex, which led to a bitter falling out between them.
After Mike's death, Vex was consumed by guilt and anger, eventually making a pact with dark forces GENEESSIS to gain power and revenge. He became a demon, fueled by a desire to destroy Mike's soul in the underworld.
And now he had the support of his halve sister Luna, who has left the pack saying she wanted see the world on her own abandoning everything, and he could not forget the look on her face when she found out that she was betrothed to him from her birth and now mike has taking her away also. He threw back his head howled in pain.

Mike knelt beside Luna, concern etched on his face. "Luna, how are you feeling? We need to get you healed up."
Luna winced, her wolf form trembling. "I...I'll be okay, Mike. Just give me a moment."
Mike nodded, his eyes scanning their surroundings to ensure they were safe. "Take your time. But when you're ready, I need to ask you something."
Luna nodded weakly.
"What's the story with you and Vex?" Mike asked gently. "He seemed pretty angry about our friendship."
Luna hesitated, her gaze darting around before settling on Mike. "We...uh...have a bit of a history, Mike."
Mike raised an eyebrow. "What kind of history?"
Luna's voice dropped to a whisper. "We're...related. Half-siblings, actually."
Mike's eyes widened in surprise. "Half-siblings? I had no idea!"
Luna nodded, a mischievous glint in her eye. "Yeah, I know, I know, it's a real soap opera. But don't worry, I won't make you attend any family reunions...unless you want to, that is."
Mike chuckled, despite himself. "Luna, you're something else."
Luna grinned, trying to hide her pain. "Hey, someone's got to keep things light around here. Besides, I'm pretty sure Vex would rather eat his own tail than attend a family reunion."
Mike laughed, shaking his head. "You're impossible, Luna."
Luna's grin faltered for a moment, before she recovered. "Hey, that's what makes me so lovable, right?"
Mike's expression softened. "Yeah, that's definitely part of it."
Mike's gaze lingered on Luna, sensing there was more to the story, but he didn't press her further. "Okay, Luna. I understand. We can talk more about it later, okay?"
Luna nodded, a hint of relief in her eyes. "Thanks, Mike. I appreciate it."
