Charlie, Vaggie and Alastor were shopping for some groceries and was returning back to the hotel. As Charlie opened the door carrying a bag full of groceries, her eyes widen in horror and her mouth dropped in shock. All of her family pictures were ripped from the walls and carelessly thrown about, some broken glass from the windows were shattered all over the floors, every room in the hotel was absolute mess.
Vaggie's eyes widen as well seeing the state of the hotel. Curious, as to why the two girls were standing in front of the doorway, not moving, Alastor leaned his head sideways, wondering. He walked around them and immediately froze when he saw Husk and Angel sitting on the floor, completely covered in bruises and scratches and somehow singed. Alastor stood silently as static emitted from him. One Husk's wings was slightly torn as the cat demon clutched his arm as it was broken. Angel had a black eye and a busted lip.
"What the hell happened?!" Vaggie exclaimed, angrily.
"Angel? Husk? What happened here? Who did this?" Charlie asked, worried.
Angel's pig, Fat Nuggets, had waddled over to the spider demon as he licked Angel's hand. Angel picked Fat Nuggets up and clutched the pig close to his chest as he hugged him tightly.
"It's okay, Fat Nuggets. Daddy's here. I ain't never going to let anything happen to you." Angel muttered, softly.
Alastor scanned the room seeing that someone was missing. "Where's Niffty?" He asked. Husk groaned as he tried to sit up.
"He took her." He growled, angrily. "The bloody TV bastard took her."
Suddenly, there was a loud crack. Everyone turned their heads to the TV that was in the room. Suddenly, there was static on the screen as it came on, accompanied by a distorted laugh. Charlie's eyes widen in shock as a face appeared on the screen.
"Vox." Alastor growled. He glared at the screen as he grinned darkly at the TV demon.
"Well, then, let's get her back." Vaggie said.
"Al?" Charlie asked as she turned to Alastor. "Will you help us?"
"If Vox has her, she's as good as dead. There's nothing I can do." Alastor said, casually as he shrugged his hands.
Husk glared at Alastor. He gritted his teeth. "The fuck you can't! YOU took out Sir Pentious without even batting an eye with all that magic voo doo hoo doo shit you do." Husk growled angrily as he looked at the radio demon, who was grinning ear to ear. Then he saw Alastor's gaze drift away from him for a second before looking back at the cat demon. Husk's eyes widen as he stared in disbelief. "I don't believe it. You're scared of him!"
"I don't know what you mean, Husker, my friend? Me? Scared? No, no, no, no!" Alastor laughed as he shook his head. "You don't know Vox, like I do. He's a dirty rotten cheater who always have something up his sleeve."
"Well tricks or not, he still has Nifty. Isn't she your friend?" Charlie asked as she turned to the radio demon. "Right now, she needs you." She said.
Alastor stared at Charlie for a moment. He felt his heart drop seeing that frown on her face, instead, of that beautiful smile the princess always had. Alastor closed his eyes and sighed before opening them, looking back at Charlie.
"How can I say no to that, dear?" Alastor said. "Fair enough, I'll help."
"REALLY!? Thank you, Alastor!" Charlie squealed, happily.
"So what's the plan to get her back?" Angel asked. Charlie looked down at the floor as a thought came to her mind then she looked back up to the group.
"I have one. But, you're not going to like it, Al." She said. "It involves you distracting Vox."
Charlie heard static coming from Alastor as she saw the radio demon's eyes glow red. She quickly looked away as she shifted her gaze from him. He was angry. Charlie looked back to see that Alastor's eyes quickly diminished. Alastor grinned darkly as he smirked.
"Very well, my dear. I'll give him a show that will be very entertaining!"
