Well, I decided to write another story starring Sir Pentious. I couldn't resist. Anyway, I read about him on Hazbin Hotel wiki, saying he might like cats, according to Vivziepop. So I thought I'd write about him getting a cat.
One day, Sir Pentious slithered over to the bar that Husk was working at in the Hazbin Happy Hotel. "Hello, Husk," Sir Pentious greeted, "May I pet you?"
"What? Hell no!" Husk retorted.
"I was just asking," Sir Pentious told him. "I'm not going to harm you, that's all."
"It's not that I'm worried about," Husk replied, "I just don't like being touched."
"Not even a small pet?" Sir Pentious said, petting Husk's fur.
"Would you mind? I said, no!" Husk snapped as he slapped Pentious' hand away and drank his bottle of booze.
"Touchy!" Sir Pentious said, rubbing his hand.
Seeing the commotion, Charlie went up to Sir Pentious and said, "Husk doesn't like to be touched, Sir Pentious, but you weren't trying to cause trouble. Would you like a kitty of your own?"
Sir Pentious' face lit up. "Why, no one has ever asked me this before. How did you know I'm a cat person?"
"Well, I watched you pet Husk, silly serpent," Charlie said with a giggle.
"Oh, Charlie, what would I ever do without you?" With that, Sir Pentious hugged Charlie and she hugged him back.
"Aww, you're so sweet."
"Ugh, how disgusting!" Husk said in disgust and drank his bottle of booze.
"Would you like to go for a walk, Sir Pentious?" Charlie offered.
"Yes, I would, but by myself?"
"You can bring Alastor. He'll help you find a cat."
"That I will," a familiar voice said. It was Alastor.
"You will? Thank you so much, Alastor," Sir Pentious told him.
"Anything for my fine friend," Alastor said.
"Then it's settled," said Charlie. "Good luck."
"Aren't you coming with us, Charlie?" Sir Pentious asked.
"Vaggie, Niffty, and I are going to stay and run the hotel," Charlie said.
"The kid is in good hands," Alastor told Sir Pentious.
"Well, we may as well be going," Sir Pentious said to Charlie. "We'll be back soon."
"Good luck," Charlie said as she waved goodbye.
…
Alastor and Sir Pentious started to walk through an alley when a small white furred stray creature with blue eyes stepped in front of them. "Meow," the creature meowed.
"Here kitty, kitty," Sir Pentious cooed. "I'm not going to harm you."
The cat sauntered over to the snake and nuzzled against him, purring.
"He or she likes you," Alastor said.
Sir Pentious scooped up the kitten and checked his belly. "Alastor, it's a girl kitten," the snake said.
"Let me see," said Alastor and saw tiny teats on the kitten's belly. "Oh, you're right. It's a girl." The Radio Demon and snake demon walked home with a stray kitten.
…
"Just wait until you see the look on Sir Pentious' face when he sees this!" Charlie exclaimed excitedly as she finished tapping the welcome sign for Sir Pentious' new pet.
"Shh, keep it down, Hon," Vaggie told her. "He could be home any minute, so let's keep it a surprise."
"Vaggie's right, Charlie," Tom pointed out, "If we told Sir Pentious, then it wouldn't be a surprise."
"Right."
Hearing Charlie's sadness, Vaggie put her hand on her shoulder. "But he's going to love it. I'm sure of it."
Charlie turned back to her, smiling. "Yeah, after all, we worked hard for the surprise."
"And that's what I like about you, Charlie," Tom told her, "You're a hard worker."
The Egg Bois, Cherri Bomb, and Angel Dust helped Niffty frost cupcakes before Alastor's and Sir Pentious' return.
The Radio Demon and the snake demon knocked on the door.
"It's them!" Niffty, Angel, and Cherri gasped as they rushed to the scene Vaggie, Tom, and Charlie were hiding.
"Boss!" one of the Egg Bois squealed in a small voice when Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb picked them up to join the group.
"Shh!" Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb hissed.
"Don't give away the surprise," Vaggie whispered to the Egg Bois.
Charlie gestured toward Husk, who was at the bar to hide.
"What the hell do you want?" Husk demanded.
"Hide," Charlie whispered.
"Oh."
The door opened and Alastor and Sir Pentious stepped into the Hazbin Happy Hotel. All of a sudden, confetti shot out of the confetti cannon in the lobby. It was an invention made by Charlie and Cherri Bomb with the help of Angel Dust. Everyone came out of hiding and shouted, "SURPRISE!"
"How was your walk with Alastor?" Charlie asked Sir Pentious.
"It was swell," Sir Pentious answered, adding, "And this time, I have the element of SURPRISE!" He showed everyone his new cat and giggled. The kitten meowed.
"AWW!" the Hazbins fawned.
Fat Nuggets trotted to greet the new member of the family. He oinked and the cat meowed.
"Whatcha gonna name her?" Angel Dust asked.
"I was thinking 'Lil Pen," Sir Pentious replied.
"'Lil Pen. That's an adorable name," Charlie said, delighted over the cat's name.
Sir Pentious set 'Lil Pen down on the floor, so she could meet her new family. Everyone, even Fat Nuggets made her feel welcome. The two animals nuzzled. 'Lil Pen purred and Fat Nuggets snorted. Sir Pentious and Angel Dust looked surprised, yet amazed at the sight.
"Hey, guys!" Niffty said to Sir Pentious and Alastor, "I made you all cupcakes with the help of Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb." She showed them a tray of cupcakes to get her point and soon everyone grabbed a cupcake to eat.
AN: I happen to like cats, too. In fact, my older sister has two of them. So this is part of the inspiration for this story. That and the fact that Vivziepop is a cat person, since she has a couple of her own.
