And chapter number two is out. I'm honestly surprised that the story is getting much attention.

But to clarify a few things again:

- The focus will be mostly on Alicia and Cuppy (Cuphead from the game)

- The devil here will not get together with Alicia because she is already married to Lucifer (the devil from the game).

- Sally and Bon Bon will definitely become her godparents. As for Hilda and Cala, I'll have to see.

The official episodes are rewritten in the story here and also have different chapter names. But I will always include a reference to the episode in the chapter names.

Until then!


It was early in the morning when Alicia woke up and sat in the guest room. She still remembered yesterday and that she landed with Cuppy in the world of the Cuphead Show. Cuppy was still fast asleep in his bed, which was across from hers. In addition to the beds, both had two closets, a desk with a chair, two bedside tables with antique table lamps and a wall mirror. Oh man I can't really sleep. She got up and walked out of the guest room before slowly closing the door behind her so Cuppy wouldn't wake up.

It was still a bit dark outside but you could already see a bit of the sun slowly coming over the horizon. She went outside to see more of the sunrise. "It looks beautiful," she said quietly to herself. The sun shone through the trees and behind let a beautiful effect on the lawn. You could see every branch and leaf in the shade. She liked that. But still she had a bad feeling. It was not the reason that she is out here alone or that it is cold. No it was something else.

It was the devil who had stared at her yesterday. She knew this look from her Lucifer when he was happy to see her or when she was generally in his field of vision. I had already feared it when I saw the one picture with him and me in the chest. He had a crush on her. Great. She would have liked to change the events of yesterday, but she knew that it was impossible. But luckily she always felt when he was near her thanks to her demon powers. Only she had to hide them from Elder Kettle and the rest of the inhabitants of the island. "I don't like to be chased" she said as she lay with her head on the fence and didn't notice Cuppy coming out of the front door.

He had noticed that she was no longer in bed and guessed that she must be out. He did not want to go upstairs. Quietly he went to her and hoped that she would not hear him. But she turned around just before he stood next to her. "Morning Cuppy" she said as he stood next to her and leaned against the fence. The white paint glistened as the sun shone on it and you could see the morning dew.

"Morning Alicia," Cuppy said as he grinned at her. "And were you able to sleep after the carnival thing?" he asked her. Her face showed concern instead of joy. "Not really after I probably have another unwanted lover on my hands" she explained to him as she lay with both arms on the fence and continued to watch the sunrise, trying to get her mind off it. Cuppy knew who she meant. "Don't worry, I won't let anyone even get close to you," he said as he balled his hand into a fist and thrust it into his other hand. She had to grin. "How about we explore the island?" she asked him. "I'd love to" Cuppy said snapping his fingers as he pointed at her and winked his right eye.

So they both went towards the forest to explore the islands while the others were still asleep in bed and didn't realize that they were both gone. But what no one noticed was that the devil was still sitting on his throne and was deep in thought. Thoughts of Alicia hadn't left his mind since yesterday. She was something special.

Oh, how the Devil deeply wanted Alicia to be his. Never before had he ever encountered a human and demon hybrid of such power and radiance. Both her human and demon forms are beautiful in their own right, but how he longed to run his fingers through her hair as well as her soft, velvety onyx black fur and entwining her tail with his own. He was sorely tempted to playfully scratch her behind her wolf like ears and watch her contented reaction as she would sink back into his arms, her tail wagging like a puppy. Although he could've help it, but he also greatly desired to switch into his dragon form and encircle her with his serpentine body, keeping most beautiful close in his possession. His dream bubble of Alicia pulling her arms out of his coils so she could caress his cheeks suddenly popped when a feminine and flirty voice shattered his blissful thoughts.

"Oh, Devil..." The Devil groaned in irritation, pinching the bridge of his nose as the offender casually sashayed her way into the throne room. Other than his auditor, there is at least one demon in the Underworld he couldn't stand the least. She one she-demon he had ever regretted recruited to join his legions of vice and sin. The one demon who won't stop bothering him with her flirting and her meaningless efforts to charm him into giving her a place at his side for the sake of power. Silk, a constant thorn in his side and the biggest mistake of his existence.

Silk is an anthropomorphic Alaskan Malamute she-demon with a lithe and curvaceous yet athletic build. Like most Malamutes, she is covered in black fur while the fur that runs up from the underside of her tail, her stomach and up to her face as well as covering her legs and forearms, is a lightly ash grey colour. Her nose is a dark purplish black and she has black semi circles above her eyes in the impression of eyeshadow. She also has long, flowing black hair that cascades over her mid-back and has small-medium length curved bone white horns. Like all demons, the sclera of her eyes are yellow while her irises are red with black pupils.

She wears a dark purple sleeveless bodysuit with the legs stopping just above her ankles, leaving her pawed feet exposed, a blue belt with a small scabbard containing a dagger on her left hip and a cloth around her waist, opening in the front. The cloth is an off-white colour that fades into a dark violet-blue and is ripped at the bottom while the back has a small opening for her tail to poke through. On her right arm, she wears a long violet fingerless glove while on her left arm, she has a gold cuff-like bracelet with a ruby on the wrist and a gold armlet on the upper arm. On her right horn, she wears golden ring similar to her bracelet with a flame like engraving pattern and around her neck is a purple collar with diamonds embedded into it as well as a diamond shaped ruby pendant.

With a smirk, Silk casually leans against one of the pillars while putting on a flirty pose as she greeted, "So, Master, you're looking even more devilishly handsome today". But the devil was not really pleased by her appearance and growled as Silk approached him and was about to sit on his lap. "Didn't I tell you not to enter my throne room without my permission?" said the devil as he stood up and walked past Silk. "Besides, I gave you an order if I'm not mistaken," the devil added before disappearing in a puff of smoke with his trident in his hand.

Silk was not very pleased about this and walked out of the throne room with her ears lowered. "And h-h-h-have you had l-l-l-luck Silk?" said a demon next to her. She looked down at the demon. It was Amnon her companion and personal servant.

Much like Silk he's a dog demon, who appears to be an short and small, greyish-purple and violet Siberian Husky with yellow eyes and a notch in his left ear. He has two dark purple stripes along his back, small yellow horns similar to Henchmen's and actually has a pair of small wings with dark purple insides. His only article of clothing are a pair of gloves similar to Henchmen's and a collar with a harness ring. She looked at him annoyed as she pulled at his ring hanging from his collar. "No, not today Amnon!" she yelled at him as she dropped him to the ground. He landed with his front body first on the ground while his back legs were up. "I could use some wine and a spa treatment" she said and continued walking while Amnon picked himself up with his little wings and followed her.

What Silk did not know was that the devil was on the surface and was in the forest looking for Alicia. She was with Cuppy in the forest and arrived at a fork in the road. A signpost with four arrows stood in the middle of the fork. The two arrows pointing to the right led them either to Porkrind's store or to the Flytrap while the left one led them to the town or to the cemetery. Both decided to go to town and turned left. "Let's see what the city looks like" said Cuppy as he started whistling out of boredom. Alicia listened to him and had no idea that the devil was on their heels. He was hidden behind the trees and bushes while he was looking for her. "Where could she be? I didn't imagine her, did I?" he hoped not.

"Hey Alicia how about you sing a song so it's not so boring" Cuppy asked her. She thought about what song would fit best.


I'll follow you anywhere
Where you wanna go, yea I don't care
Let the river drown all our fears
If the pouring rain
Washes you away
I'll go with you babe

The devil was still looking for her and suddenly heard a singing voice from a distance which he followed.

'Cause if you fall
I will follow you into the great unknown
Where wild winds blow
If you lose it all
You know I'll be there when everybody's gone
You're not alone
'Cause I'll follow you, oh
Where the wild winds blow

They both continued along the path until they came out of the forest and arrived at a clearing. The animals grazing in the tall grass saw the two and listened to Alicia's singing voice.

So don't you disappear
'Cause this road ain't so lonely when you're near
There's no going back from here
If your sky turns grey
And you're losing faith
I'm with you all the way

The devil also arrived at the clearing and heard the voice that was a little closer than before. With the clearing behind them, the two arrived at a small part of the forest that had another fork in the road. This time they had to continue to the right to get to the town.

'Cause if you fall
I will follow you into the great unknown
Where wild winds blow
If you lose it all
You know I'll be there when everybody's gone
You're not alone
'Cause I'll follow you, oh
Where the wild winds blow

The devil also arrived at the fork in the road and followed the voice unobtrusively.

Where the wild winds blow
Where the wild winds blow
Where the wild winds blow, yeah

'Cause if you fall
I will follow you into the great unknown
Where wild winds blow
If you lose it all
You know I'll be there when everybody's gone
You're not alone
'Cause I'll follow you, oh
Where the wild winds blow

From a distance, Cuppy could already see the city peeking out from behind another forest they had to cross. They entered the forest and did not notice that the devil had found them and was hiding behind a tree. There she was. He had not imagined her. Oh, she looks more beautiful than I thought. His tail wagged again. Her singing voice pleased the devils very much. So much so that he decided to make her his queen. But she was not alone but accompanied by the cup that still owed him his soul.

But not only he heard the singing voice. Not far away, almost at the end of the forest, sat a couple of toons who were taking a break. They were different toons from anthropomorphic animals to humanoid figures with objects as head or as whole body. But in the group there was also a human toon.

Where the wild winds blow
Oh, where the wild winds blow
Where the wild winds blow, yeah

The group heard the singing voice approaching them. "Hey that sounds like angels singing" said an anthropomorphic owl. "Yes, that could go well with our new play, couldn't it Miss Stageplay?" asked a humanoid toon with a vase for a head decorated with floral patterns as he looked at the only human toon who turned to him. The human said nothing and followed the voice while the others looked at each other in confusion.

Alicia and Cuppy kept walking and couldn't wait to see the city. "What do you think if Sally is here too?" asked Alicia. Cuppy pondered and was about to say something when they both heard something stepped on a branch that broke. They both stopped, rooted to the spot, and looked around. Whoever stepped on the branch could not be far away from the two. Alicia could not use her demon eyes because it was not dark enough. But she didn't need to because she saw a shadow approaching them from behind a tree. Cuppy stood protectively in front of Alicia until they saw that it was a familiar face.


"Sally?" said Alicia and Cuppy at the same time when they saw the actress in front of her eyes. She looked very much like Sally from the book, but there were few differences. She is a skinny, fair-skinned, tall woman with curly/ fluffy light blonde hair, which is divided in three sections and she has bangs decorating her hair. A turquoise hairband with a ribbon ist in the middle. Unlike her book counterpart she wears makeup, such as light red lipstick and pale rose eyeshadow.

She wears a white short-sleeved coat with a blue button under her chest over a light blue top, a pair of white gloves with three black stripes in the middle, high-waisted wide sea-blue pants with a black band, and a pair of black Mary Jane shoes with small heels. She also has a pale blue bag with gold details. She did not wear her turquoise gown-like dress with a sea-foam-green diagonal stripe, short, puffy sleeves, white bloomers, and a knee-length, frilled skirt. Her plain turquoise boots and her mint-green pearl necklace and coral-diamond earrings are gone to.

Alicia liked the look very much even though Sally in the book criticized her ever so slightly about the things she always wore and why she didn't wear dresses. Oh Sally if you could see yourself now. But the Sally here only looked at the two confused. Sure it was strange to see a real person in a cartoon world but still she didn't have to stare at her like that. "Did you just sing?" she asked Alicia. She nodded and tried to walk away from Sally but she kept approaching her. "Um Sally could you please get out of my face your nose is poking me in the eye" Alicia said as she closed her right eye where her nose was poking. "Oh sorry my good one" she said taking some distance from Alicia who was rubbing her right eye.

"But could you tell me how you know my name? You don't seem to be from around here, do you?" asked Sally as she looked questioningly at Alicia. Alicia and Cuppy were now even more confused. "I'm Alicia, your goddaughter and the daughter of Dorothy Powell, who is your best friend," Alicia said, but Sally shook her head. She didn't know any Dorothy Powell. This shocked Alicia very much. This Sally did not recognize her and that shocked Alicia very much. But Cuppy answered the question "We have heard about you" he said. Sally looked at him. "I see, so I'm not only known here, but also outside Inkwell Isle," she said. Alicia didn't know if she should say anything, but she didn't and walked past Sally. The toon saw that she was sad.

She wanted to say something but Alicia was already gone. "I'll talk to her!" said Cuppy as he ran after Alicia. Sally looked after him and followed them. Alicia noticed that Cuppy was running after her and stopped. "Alicia, are you okay?" he asked her, but she just shook her head. He knew why she was so down. The news that Sally didn't recognize her was hard for her because she got along very well with Sally and Baroness Von Bon Bon. Both were always there for her when she was worried.

"I'm fine Cuppy you don't have to worry" she said but Cuppy was worried. "I can see that you are sad, so come on, tell me what's wrong". Cuppy was right she was sad. "I have to admit I miss the other Inkwell Isle" she said as a tear ran down her face. Cuppy agreed with her, he also missed his Inkwell Isle very much. Sally overheard the conversation between the two while hiding behind a tree. She heard how lonely Alicia was despite the company of Cuppy. Now she felt bad about what she had said to her.

She had learned that both of them came from another world where she and another person named Baroness Von Bon Bon were her godmothers. I had always wondered what it would be like to have children of my own. Sally nodded. Yes, she will be Alicia's godmother, even if she hardly knows her. "Thanks Cuppy, I'm feeling better already," Alicia said as she got up from the stone they were sitting on. Sally saw it and reacted quickly "Stop wait Alicia!" she said as the two turned to face the actress. "Sally did you..." Sally nodded, answering Alicia's question. "I would also like to be your godmother if it's okay with you my dear". Alicia was surprised by the statement and nodded. This pleased Sally very much. "Okay well then I wanted to ask you if you would like to be in our next play?". Alicia thought.

Sallys smiled when she saw the nod. Alicia accepted the offer but had to be patient as the play was still in progress. Until then, Alicia could rest and she went with Cuppy to the city. The city here was slightly larger than the one in the book. Also, many buildings like Sally's theater or the harbor were placed somewhere else. The junkyard was also nowhere to be seen. "So we can definitely get lost here" said Alicia as they walked past the pier they had mistaken for the harbor. The pier had several attractions, one of which was under construction. "Maybe we should stop by with the others when the one attraction is finished" suggested Cuppy. Alicia didn't really know. She was never a fan of roller coasters or the like.

But the two continued until they were again in front of the forest from which they came. It was already noon the others were certainly already awake and were certainly worried about the two. "Don't worry, I left a message in the kitchen for Elder Kettle," said Cuppy as they entered the forest, not noticing that the devil was watching them. Well Cuppy didn't notice. But Alicia did. "Is something wrong?" asked Cuppy when he saw Alicia's worried face. She was also no longer in her human form but in her demon form. Her tail was hanging and almost touching the ground until she heard a swish and the tail went up. Both looked around but saw no one.

"I have a feeling we're not the only ones in the forest," she said, changing into her wolf form. She bent down to let Cuppy sit on her back so they could escape from the forest as quickly as possible. But before they could reach the exit of the forest and the meadow, the devil appeared in a cloud of smoke, grinning at them with joy. Alicia stopped before she ran into him. "Well look who's coming out of the woods it's the big bad wolf" Alicia rolled her eyes when he said that but took a few steps back as the devil approached her. Cuppy noticed that she was uncomfortable and saw the devil's mark on her arm start to glow from white to yellow.

The devil didn't see that and was more focused on her yellow eyes with the red rim around her pupil. He had never seen such a pattern before. And her fur as a wolf looked beautiful. "Well I must say my dearest you look beautiful" he said as he approached her while Alicia moved further away from him until she bumped into a tree and transformed back into her demon form. Cuppy lay behind the tree. She didn't want to get too close, but the tree behind her prevented her from getting any further away from the devil. He put his hand around her chin while staring deep into her eyes. Her yellow eyes were a little darker than his but he didn't mind. "Oh yes you are perfect" "Perfect for what?" she asked him. He whispered it in her ear "Perfect to be my queen".

When she heard that, she tore herself away from him. "Um, I'm already taken and married," she said, but the devil had to laugh when he heard that. "Yes, of course, my dearest..." but he fell silent when he saw the wedding ring around her right ring finger. It was a silver ring with a ruby in the middle. She was already taken but that did not interest the devil. He wanted to have her for himself. Only for himself alone. So he encircled her and wrapped his snake-like body around her while lifting her up so he could look at her. Alicia was not very enthusiastic about this and tried to free herself from his grip. The devil's mark was now glowing red. "Let go of me!" she said annoyed.

But the devil did not think about it and grinned diabolically. "Only when you decide to marry me and be my queen" he said and squeezed her tighter with his body. She felt it and could not free herself. Damn what now? That she was in panic was obvious. Cuppy also saw that and thought about how he could free Alicia from his grip. He thought about it until he remembered the conversation he had with her when he first saw her devil's mark. "Should I feel uncomfortable or get angry it lights up and gives a electric shock to anyone who touches me in that spot". Cuppy came out in front of the tree and called out to the devil. "Hey devil here I am come and get me if you want my soul!" with tongue out Cuppy ran while the devil started growling and wanted to run after him until he suddenly got a strong electric shock.

He lay twitching on the ground while the grip on Alicia loosened and she ran out of the woods with Cuppy. The devil was back to his normal form and rubbing his head. He was still confused and wanted to know what that was all about. But he decided to go back home and disappeared in a puff of smoke.


They both saw the cottage from a distance when they stopped running. The devil was no longer around. Alicia sensed that and exhaled in relief. Cuppy did the same. "Okay what was that!" he asked as he exhaled. "I don't know, but I suspect it won't be the last time he tries to make me his queen," she said. They both knew they had to be more careful now.

Breathing normally again, the two went to the cottage and realized that something was wrong. In the front door was a hole that resembled the chandelier that was next to the well. "What happened here?" Alicia asked herself as she walked into the house with Cuppy and saw the mess. The china was destroyed, the furniture in ruins and in general it looked like there had been a war in the living room. But the question of where the others were was still open. The two looked around, but there was no sign of the other three. "Where could they be?" Alicia wondered when they heard someone come through the front door. The two turned and saw Cuphead, Mugman and Elder Kettle dressed strangely.

For whatever reason, Cuphead wore a flowerpot on his head. From the sides came out leaves that resembled a hairstyle. In his left hand he held a wooden baseball bat. Mugman carried a small metal garbage can on his head and held a plunger in his right hand. Elder Kettle, in turn, had pillows tied around his waist with a rope and held an axe with both hands. But what she and Cuppy immediately noticed was the huge band-aid stuck to the place where his mustache was supposed to be.

"What happened to you guys?" asked Alicia. "Did you fight a bear or something, or why the disguises and weapons?" added Cuppy. But the three didn't feel like telling the whole story and went upstairs. Alicia and Cuppy didn't know about Baby Bottle. "Maybe we should clean up first and ask the three of them later" Alicia suggested as she closed her eyes and opened them again. They glowed white and had no pupils. She also floated across the floor while her hair swirled around. Everything around her began to repair itself as if by magic. The destroyed china was back in the cupboard and was whole again and not in shards.

The furniture that was broken or in the walls was repaired and placed in its original place as if it had not moved. The radio from Elder Kettle also repaired itself and was put back on the table where it had been before. The whole living room was back to the way it was before as if nothing had happened. Alicia stopped floating and got back on the floor next to Cuppy. Her eyes were back to normal but suddenly they heard a scream and saw Cuphead fall down the stairs while the goldfish flew out of his head and landed in the goldfish bowl on the piano and made his rounds as if nothing had happened.

"My head hurts" Cuphead said as he looked to Alicia and Cuppy. Both were startled when they saw the crack that was next to Cuphead's right eye. "What is it. Do I have something on my face?" he asked as he turned to the mirror next to him and saw the tear with some fluid coming out of it. It was obvious that he was panicking, but Alicia calmed him down and used her healing magic to close the crack. Cuphead, who had his eyes closed, opened them and saw the white eyes of Alicia.

They became normal again as before which calmed Cuphead. "What was that?" he asked as he kept some distance from her. "Healing magic you silly" Cuppy said as he helped him stand up. Cuphead walked over to the mirror and saw that the crack was gone. "Wow thanks Alicia!" he said, hugging her tightly. Alicia had to smile and stroked his cheek. Today was a bit exhausting for everyone. Alicia and Cuppy had a nasty encounter with the devil who wants to marry her and make her his queen even though she was taken while Cuphead, Mugman and Elder Kettle had to deal with a baby that caused all the chaos.

Yep the Inkwell Isle's here were already something special. But Alicia really hoped she wouldn't see the devil again so soon. But the devil was sitting on his throne and was still thinking about Alicia. Her eyes, no, she in general was beautiful. Both as a demon and as a human or wolf. He stood up and began to sing.


I've got your picture on my wall
I dream about you when I sleep
I go out of my way everyday just hoping that
I'll catch you walking down the street

I know just where you went to school
I know the names of all your friends
I got it bad again
An o-b-s-e-s-s-i-o-n

He walked around a column while holding a photo of Alicia in his right hand, which he caressed with his hand before putting it away and walking over to some Imps he was watching behind a stalagmite. His pupils took the form of Cuphead, Cuppy and Mugman losing their heads and being chopped into several pieces with a knife until only a small pile of shards remained and the devil started laughing.

I know your middle name
I got a lock of your hair
I'm just a little bit insane
'Cause I think I see you everywhere
My friends, they just don't understand
They cannot see my point of view
They say it's gotten outta hand
And I'm obsessed with you

In his left hand he held a piece of Alicia's black hair which he smelled while his tail wagged with joy. He threw it away and turned around. There were photos of Alicia everywhere that he paid attention to before continuing to sing with hypnotic eyes.

But I wanna get next to you
Yeah, I love all the things you do
I wanna get close to you
You are my dream come true
I wanna have fun with you
Your sweet caress won't do
'Cause I'm obsessed with you
'Cause I'm obsessed with you

His eyes reflected a hill he and she sat on, enjoying the picnic together before he and she lay down and he stared at her. In her right hand she held her silver trident and grinned at him before joining him in spreading terror and chaos.

Your smile sets my heart aflame
Electrocute me with your eyes
The very mention of your name
My stomach fills with butterflies

Both looked at each other before they kissed and the devil was shocked. But she stroked him on the cheek before she buried herself in his fur and slowly fell asleep.

Oh yeah, now you and me, we were meant to be
We live happily in my fantasy
We go walking down the aisle
Yeah, you look at me and smile
My alarm clock rings, I wake up in denial

His eye returned to normal and he grinned wider than before. He walked down the hall until he jumped onto his throne and imagined seeing her lying on top of him while he sat on the throne.

Whoa, you and me, we were meant to be
We live happily in my fantasy
Think I'm walking down the aisle
Yeah, you look at me and smile
My alarm clock rings, I wake up in denial

The Imps were now around him and singing along with him. They too wanted the human-demon hybrid as their queen.

I wanna get next to you (yeah)
I love all the things you do
But I wanna get close to you (yeah)
You are my dream come true
I wanna have fun with you (whoa)
Your sweet caress won't do
'Cause I'm obsessed with you
Yeah, I'm obsessed with you

He stood up from his throne and sang loudly with his arms outstretched so that everyone in hell could hear. The Imps sang along and disappeared when the devil stopped singing and laughed with him."I will make her my queen whether she is married or not. She will be mine. Mine alone!" said the devil as he began to laugh diabolically. The hunt for the love of his life had begun.
