A few days after Sinsmas, Spike was now seen in the hotel, putting on the clothes Octavia gave him. As he did, he made his way to the door and made sure to get ready to go to work. As soon as he was ready, he headed out to Imp city. Eventually he reached the building and got to the office, where Blitzo, Loona Millie and Moxxie were.

"Hey kid! You good?" Blitzo said

"Lay it on me." Spike said.

"Our next target isn't here yet, but we'll let ya know when it comes. Until then just do some paperwork." Blitzo said, handing a stack of papers to Spike.

Spike took the paper and did it and as he did, Loona's phone rang.

"Hello?....ok. Spike, it's Octavia, she wants to talk to you."

Spike raised an eyebrow and took Loona's phone and said

"Yes?"

"Hey Spike, you busy?" Octavia asked on the other end.

"Just doing some paperwork, why?" Spike replied.

"I was thinking me and you could hang out for a bit. I'm just a little lonely at home and I need some time out." Octavia said.

"Sure thing! I'll finish and come to you, just tell me where to meet." Spike answered.

"At the Stylish Occult, you know the store where we met?" Octavia answered.

"Alright, I'll see ya there." Spike said, before handing Loona back her phone.

(A few minutes later)

Spike was heading to the Stylish Occult, and as he did, he eventually saw Octavia browsing the store. She saw Spike and waved to him, saying.

"Spike! Your here!"

"Of course, I promised didn't I?" Spike said with a smile.

"Well, I'm still looking at the store for any good stuff, do you wanna search too?" Octavia offered.

"Yeah, I mean with how you helped me with my superhero costume thing, my revenge on those fuckers who did this to me, helping me feel like I belong, I practically owe you. You, Loona, Cherri, Charlie, Stolas...all of you." Spike said with a tone of mixed gratefulness and interest.

Octavia smiled, before snickering at the last part Spike said.

"Superhero costume thing?"

"Yeah, that first part sounded cooler in my head." Spike said sheepishly, with Octavia giggling in amusement.

Eventually they continued to look around the store and Spike found and bought a black tanktop while Octavia had found some taxidermy on some animals, such as a raccoon or deer. Spike had even found some black hair dye and makeup while Octavia had found some accessories such as a necklace and jewelry. They exit the store with their chosen items while Spike said.

"So, wanna go anywhere else?"

"Well. There is one place, but it's in the living world." Octavia said.

"Where?" Spike asked.

"It's a book place that's near a cafe."

Spike was a bit reluctant, but wanting to uplift Octavia, said.

"Follow me."

Spike had used his Asmodean Crystal to open a portal and they had both entered....

(In the living world)

The two reached Canterlot City and both Spike and Octavia donned their human disguises.

They looked around the city and as they did, Spike asked.

"How far is this place your looking for anyway Octavia?"

"It shouldn't be far. I heard it has alot of good reviews." Octavia answered.

They continued to walk and as they did, they reached the place. It looked to be a cafe that had some patrons drinking coffee and studying or using their laptops or phones. There was also a library inside and some people were reading.

"Nice place." Spike complimented.

"Thanks." Octavia replied.

They eventually found a lone table and both sat, with Octavia picking out the book she looked for, while Spike decided to pick a random one to pass the time. As they read, Spike asked.

"So, why did you wanna come here specifically?"

"Well, I admit there are places in Hell I liked, but I wanted to come here since the issues with my dad and mom are enough to deal with, especially with them fighting." Octavia replied.

Spike, taken aback a bit upon hearing the word "fighting" said.

"Whoa wait, fighting?" Spike asked.

Octavia gave a look of shock at having revealed a bit of her home life, but sighed she knew she couldn't take it back now. She only looked at Spike and said.

"Yes. My dad and mom are always fighting since my dad had an affair with your boss. That imp was doing it to get access to my dad's grimoire, which is illegal! And since then this whole fighting between them happened even when I became 17, Now that I became 18 after my birthday..... I just...why did...I just.....what can I-." Octavia said, with the stress of it slowly getting to her, until she felt something hold her.

She looked and saw Spike hugging her, with her slowly letting it out and letting the human-demon hybrid comfort her.

"It's not your fault Via. I mean my parents in the living world didn't fight, but they sure as hell were never caring to me. I mean if anything, you, Loona, Charlie...all of you helped me love again. What happened with your mom and dad isn't your fault." Spike said.

"But...why....how can I deal with all this fighting, throwing stuff and yelling from them both?" Octavia said with her head on his shoulder.

"Via. Look at me." Spike said in a caring tone.

Octavia did so and looked at Spike, who said with sympathy.

"I know your home isn't perfect, fuck, mine was NEVER perfect. But that doesn't mean we can't make a new home....or family. Hell, even Moxxie and Millie almost treat me like their kid then my human parents ever did given their ignorance over Twilight. What I'm trying to say is although that may be the family that made you, that doesn't mean you can make your own family or friends. I mean, before this happened to me I wish my parents, Twilight...hell everybody would accept me and not look down on me......but.......that didn't matter to them. I know Stolas cares about you deep down, like how much I loved you and the others. I'm not gonna act like I know what your going through, but I don't want you to suffer so much over it. I'm not just saying it's not your fault but just because a relationship looks broken doesn't mean it can't either be mixed or mended."

"But-" Octavia said, until Spike said again.

"It's not your fault. Who you choose to be is your choice."

Spike continued to repeat this phrase "It's not your fault" to her until Octavia finally broke and cried, with Spike patting her back, causing the disguised owl demon to softly rub her head on his shoulder as she let out all the years she had to face of neglect.

"Spike....your too pure for Hell....why are you such an angel?" Octavia asked, wondering of Spike's caring affection to her.

"I said it before and I'll say it again Octavia. I love you, all of you for helping me get back up." Spike answered.

Octavia then slowly began to calm herself and looked at Spike's smile, she slowly leaned in, with Spike confused until they locked lips, which Spike returned. Eventually they pulled away as Spike said in a playful tone.

"Feel better, your majesty?"

Octavia only giggled and said "Stop it!"

The two began to bond more, with Spike and Octavia getting some coffee and snacks, reading more novels and even messing with a few people, Spike even made good use of his black hair dye from The Stylish Occult and applied it on his green hair while in the bathroom. Eventually, after a few hours, Spike asked.

"Have fun?"

"Aside from putting up with that fancy high-class shit, definitely." Octavia answered with a smile.

"Hey, you wanna hang out again?" Spike asked.

"Well, you and I are in an open relationship with Loona and those other girls so sure. Do you have your Hell phone?" Octavia replied

Spike showed it and Octavia tapped her hands on it and put her number in the contact list. Eventually they returned to Hell, specifically near the Stylish Occult where there was a limo, the driver motioned to Octavia and Octavia said to Spike.

"I'll see you soon Spike."

"You too Octavia." Spike replied, with Octavia heading to the limo that drove her home. As Spike walked, his hell phone rang and he saw it was a text from Blitzo:

"New targete! It's an ashole who got screwed by an bitchy music manager or some shite, meete us back at I.M.P to discus the targete"

Spike looked at the message and headed to the I.M.P building, ignoring the bad spelling Blitzo had.

As Spike was heading his way, a phone was seen recording him from the shadows, held by an unknown female.

"Well, looks like Hell Night is making a name for himself in Hell...." A female voice said, posting the photo of Spike on her phone's social media.
