Since being kicked out of the Ars Goetia, Stolas had done everything possible to make the best out of his situation, even in spite of everything he lost. His daughter especially was the hardest lost, and though he tried to assure her that he still loved her, she still remained adamant that he chose Blitzo over her, and hadn't spoken to him since. However, even Stolas felt depressed, Blitzo was always there for support. That, plus his daughter and employees and friends, and Stolas was slowly, but surely getting better. And before anyone knew it, Stolas got confirmation that he was pregnant, and Blitzo was the father. Blitzo was shocked that Stolas was pregnant, but Stolas told him that some male avians carried the child, and though Stella was the one who was carrying Via, in this case, it was different. Still, though, everyone was supported of the couple, and Blitzo was excited to have a biological child.

"So, Stols, do you think the kid will have more of me or you? I have a feeling our little fella will have more of you considering you're a Goetian and shit," Blitzo said as he pointed at Stolas's stomach that had grown a considerable amount in a few months.

"I'm sure our child will have your horns. But regardless, I am hoping for a boy. That would be interesting to raise," Stolas said.

"Me too! Maybe he'll be into horses like me!" Blitzo said optimistically.

"Well, darling, I think it'll be important to support him or her in whatever interest they have, even if it were taxidermies..."

Stolas couldn't help but sigh at this. The taxidermies reminded him of his owlet. The last time he saw her was on TV, and she was wearing a formal dress most likely picked out by her mother. She looked vastly different from the emo style from last time.

"Hey, don't worry about Via. I'm sure she still loves you. And when she turns 18, she may return to you. Now I gotta go pick up Loony at the party. Look over the apartment for me, alright?"

Stolas nodded and Blitzo quickly left. Stolas turned on the TV and caught up on his soap operas. A few minutes into the episode, however, the power went out.

"Oh come on! I thought Blitzo paid the light bill!" Stolas groaned as he got up to go check outside for the breaker. However, he stopped when he heard some footsteps. They didn't sound familiar.

"Who's there...?" Stolas quietly said, but being firm in case it were an unknown intruder. Just then, Stolas was yanked back and being dragged. Stolas tried to scream, but his mouth was being covered. Stolas was lunged into the bed and quickly tied up. Stolas tried to fight back, but the intruder was stronger than him, holding his limbs in place. Soon, he was tied to the bed post and spread out. He whimpered as his eyes tried to adjust to whoever it was. However, he noticed that whoever tied him had pink eyes. Those eyes looked awfully familiar...

"...Stella?"

No soon as he said that, the mask came off, and Stolas gasped when he found that it was none other than Stella, giving off an evil smile.

"Missed me, Stolass?"

"LET ME GO RIGHT NOW!" Stolas yelled as he tried to get out of his restraints. "You better hope Blitzo doesn't come back! He will fucking kill you on the spot!"

However, Stella ended up laughing at this.

"Wow, Stolass! Good to see you're still the same, pathetic self! Not only are you powerless without your stupid magic, but you now rely on a fucking imp to rescue you? This once again proves Satan was right to take away your royal status that you didn't deserve in the first place!"

Stolas hooted in sadness at this. If he didn't hate Satan before, he certainly did after he sentenced him to 100 years to live among the working class, and he never fully forgave any of the other sins for failing to defend him.

"And now look at you! All ragged up, have those stupid white pupils on you 24/7, and now pregnant?! I can't believe you and that fucking imp are procreating now! I bet that thing is going to look ugly! What, you miss your daughter so much you want to recreate her?"

"KEEP THEM OUT OF YOUR FUCKING MOUTH!!!"

If Stolas still had his petrification power, Stella would be stone by now, but she kept mocking his misery.

"And what are you going to do if I don't? You never did jack shit to me anyway! At least Octavia is growing more mature now that I have full custody of her. At least she acts like a proper princess now, even if I had to beat the shit out of her at times!"

Did Stella just implied what she just said? Did she actually went as low as to...

Hurt...

His...

Starfire...

"I swear... if you lay a finger on her..."

Stolas was interrupted when Stella slapped him.

"OR WHAT?! YOU. CAN'T. DO. SHIT!!!" Stella yelled in his face. "And you know what? Pathetic fucking losers like you don't deserve abominations of babies anyway!"

Stolas's eyes only grew wide when Stella suddenly pulled out a bat and a coat hanger. Those can only mean one thing...

"NO!!! DON'T KILL MY BABY!!!" Stolas screamed as tears began to pour out of his eyes. He tried his damnest to get out of his restraints. But not only did she tied his limbs too tight, he winced when he felt one of his arms break from the tightness seeping into his flesh.

"Nice try, Stolass, but this is happening no matter what! Now say goodbye to that mixed monstrosity of yours!"

However, Stolas couldn't even say his goodbye when Stella began to whack his stomach with the bat. Stolas screamed as he felt the fetus already getting injured. Even if it somehow managed to survive that ordeal, it would most like have some deformity of some sort, not to mention the mental impact.

"STELLA, STOP!!! PLEASE, STOP!!! OH FUCK, I'M SO SORRY FOR WHATEVER I DID TO YOU!!! PLEASE DON'T KILL MY BABY!!! PLEASE!!!" Stolas cried out as Stella continued to beat on the stomach nonstop. As Stolas got injured from this, the fetus only crumpled up even more. Once she was done with the beating, she bent up the coat hanger before forcing Stolas's cloaca open and digging the hanger in, emitting more screams.

"Quit your complaining! I'm doing you and that imp a favor by killing it!"

Stolas cried as he felt the hanger get into his stomach, and it soon latched onto the fetal remains and yanked it out. Stolas screamed in horror when he saw how broken the fetus was, bleeding. Stella made sure to finish it off by hitting its head until it splattered.

"Congratulations! It's dead!" Stella mocked as she forced the owl to look at the remains of its child. He cried hard as he realized that now that his dreams of having the child, let alone another one, was gone. Physically, he suffered a lot, and his cloaca and stomach burned from the forced intrusion and beating. But he can already guess the mental impact this had on his already fragile mind. This was the cherry on top of his already troubled mental health.

This broke him.

This destroyed him.

And worst of all...

He would never dare bore another child aga-

*BANG BANG BANG!*

All of a sudden, gunshots went blaring inside the room. Stella had been shot numerous times before collapsing on the floor, and dying. Stolas looked at the door to find Blitzo standing there, shooting his former wife dead. Once he was sure Stella was dead, Blitzo's cold face turned shock as he ran to Stolas and cut the ropes.

"STOLAS, WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED?!?! Did she..." Blitzo stared in horror at the remains of the fetus. Stolas couldn't even bare to look at it anymore. He turned away and cried. Blitzo only crawled to his lover's side and hugged him as he cried harder.

"My baby's dead... my baby's dead..."

"I'm so sorry, Stolas..." Blitzo can only say as he too cried for his now fallen child. Of all the things Stella did, this was by far the worst thing she had done yet. And as they continued to cry and hug each other, neither had any idea what was going to happen in the future.

Would they ever be the same again?
