With three new girls in tow, Danny walks through Hell again. Danny saw Cerberus sniff the ground, hoping to find another demon girl. He looks back and saw Modeus, still blushing from the close contact with him and Pandemonica seem to be in thought. He turns back and sighs.
This is turning out to be one wild adventure. First, he meets someone that need coffee, only to be a sadist once she has it, a lustful girl that appears to be attached to him and not in a good way, and finally a triple demon that shares the same mind and soul that acts a bit like a dog. This was strange and yet, he feels so calm around them. Why? He didn't belong here, Pandemonica said so, as well as the CEO. Danny then smelled some very strong and so did Cerberus.
"Is that...?" Danny started to asked.
"Alcohol! We know who that is." Cerberus said.
Pandemonica sighs, a little sad it wasn't the demon she was hoping for. Cerberus leads them down the path before they spotted another demon girl. She was wearing black and red like the others and had white hair, a tail, and black horns. One thing he notices was that she had sour look on her face. Cerberus smiles, ran up to her, and jumps on her.
"WHAT THE FU...CERBERUS!" She shouted as Danny ran up to help her.
"Down! Down girl!" Danny said, pulling them off.
"Augh, who are you?" The girl asked.
"Danny Fenton." He said, holding each girl back.
"Great, another creep." She groans.
"Hello, Malina." Modeus said.
"Oh, hey." She said, not caring.
"Danny, this is Malina, the Sour Demon," Pandemonica said before facing her.
"Where's your sister?" She asked.
"I don't fucking know! She's probably off being a bitch again." Malina groans.
Danny blinks. It sounds like they didn't get along. Reminds him of him and Jazz.
"Listen, Malina? I've been dragged to Hell against my will. Pan said I'm not supposed to be here and the CEO said that she'll let me leave if I complete a challenge from each girl I meet." Danny told her, after getting Cerberus to calm down.
"Someone drag you to Hell?" Malina asked.
"Yeah, he's not on the list," Pandemonica said and show her.
"That is odd," Malina said but turn away.
"So? What does that have to do with me?" She asked, annoyed.
"Malina," Pandemonica said, getting her turned.
She sighs and looks at Danny.
"So what's the plan, angel boy?" She asked.
"Um, I'm not an Angel," Danny said.
"He's right! Master Danny has a smell of death on him." Cerberus said.
Danny groans. Ever since he promises that he'll take Cerberus out of Hell, they have been calling him "Master Danny". Malina just raises an eyebrow.
"I'm Half-Ghost." He said.
"Half...Ghost?" She asked.
"Long story." He said.
"So what do you got to do?" Malina asked.
"You have to give the challenge," Danny said.
Malina looks surprised and started to think.
"What challenges did you already do?" She asked.
"Got some Hellfire Coffee Beans, took down a love stealing demon, and travel through a pack of Hellhounds," Danny told her.
"Wait, I been hearing about those. I've been hearing that someone has been making a name for themselves in Hell. That's you?" Malina said.
"Yeah, but all I want is to go home," Danny said.
"Home? Jeez, what a whiner." Malina said.
"You're not much cheerful person yourself," Danny told her.
"Why do you think I'm called the Sour Demon, asshole?" Malina said.
"Sound more like bitching to me," Danny said.
"You want bitching, go find my sister," Malina told him.
Danny took a breath. He needs to stop before he gets too carried away.
"Look, Malina. Just give me your challenge, and I'll leave you be. Deal?" Danny said.
Malina looks at Danny and saw he wasn't joking. He would really leave her be if she wants it.
"Fine." She said.
"Wow, Master Danny really knows how to get on someone's good side," Cerberus said.
"He's since a perverted." Modeus said.
"Okay, Modeus, lustful or not, we need to talk about your views on romance," Danny said, groaning.
"So? What his challenge?" Pandemonica asked.
"Hmm, he needs to make me happy," Malina said.
"Make you happy?" Danny asked.
"Yeah. Make me smile even a tiny bit and you'll pass." Malina said.
"Make you smile?" Danny said thinking.
"That going to be very hard. There have been many that tried, but they all fail." Pandemonica said.
Danny sat down on a rock and started to think. Malina was a demon, there has to be something she likes that makes her smile. He then felt his foot hit something and look down to see a bottle. He reaches down and picks it up.
"Vodka? I thought this was only severe on earth." He asked.
"Hell too," Cerberus said.
"What? Never drink it before?" Malina asked.
"Can't. I'm too young." Danny said.
"Too young?" Malina asked again.
"Yeah, I'm only 14, going to be 15 soon. Earth has a law that anyone under the age of 18 is not allowed to drink." Danny said.
Malina just looks away. She never did understand those humans laws.
"Augh, I need another drink." She said.
Danny faces her and notices that she got up and started to walk away. He looks at the bottle and then came up with an idea.
"How about I get you some more?" Danny asked.
"Huh?" Malina asked, confuse.
"You like this stuff right?" Danny asked and got a nod.
"It might not be the thing that makes you happy, but I got to complete something right?" Danny told her.
"Yeah," Malina said.
"Well, on Earth, minors can't buy this. But I bet in Hell, no one cares." Danny said.
"True." Pandemonica said.
"So, where is vodka serve?" Danny asked.
Danny follows Malina and sighs. He really had no idea what he was thinking. Offering to buy Vodka? Hell, he had no way of paying for it. The others decide to stay behind. None of them wish him luck, and he wasn't expecting it. They were demons after all. He nodes Malina groans as she walks and decides to at least took to her.
"Malina, why are you sour all the time?" He asked.
"None of your business." She said.
"Jeez, what a sour puss," Danny said.
"Augh, I've been in Hell for too long." He groans.
"What do you mean?" Malina asked.
"I'm from Earth, remember? I think being in here is changing me, and I don't think it for the better." Danny said.
"Yeah, happens to a lot of poor souls that find their way here," Malina said.
"You know, I have problems with my sister too," Danny said.
"You have a sister?" Malina asked.
"Yeah, an older one," Danny said.
"Mine too." Malina agreed.
"Let me guess, overprotective, annoying, and hard to get along with at times?" Danny asked.
"Not sure on the overprotective, but those other two is a yes." Malina agreed.
"We use to be close when we were younger. We sorta grew apart as we got older." Danny said.
"My sister really didn't care about me a lot. Once she found her "title", she has been different." Malina said.
"Heh, that's something," Danny said.
"What?" Malina asked.
"I'm a human and you're a demon. We both have older sisters that we can't stand at points." Danny smiles.
Malina thought about that and nodded. She didn't smile, but Danny knew she was feeling happy a little.
"Malina, I'm not sure if the others told you, but the CEO of Hell had given me Hell Protection. Meaning that no one can kill me. I'm guessing that means I'm going to stay alive this whole time." Danny said.
Malina groans. She hated that the CEO gives someone Hell Protection. Still, though, this boy wasn't as much of a creep as she thought. He just talking to her like she wasn't a demon and could even relate to her about having a sister. She looks away from Danny and gave a small smile that he couldn't see. They soon reach the place that she gets her Vodka from.
"Hellmart?" He asked.
"I didn't name it," Malina said.
Danny shrugs, and they walk in. Danny notices a lot of demons around the place, buying everything they could.
"Geez, must be a busy day in Hell," Danny said.
Malina shrugs and leads Danny to the alcohol row, not knowing a few guards were watching them.
Danny was surprised to see just about every alcohol that was ever made in the row. Some of these drinks he heard of, others just sound made up. Malina found the Vodka and took a few bottles. Danny notices and walks up to her.
"You got enough to pay for it? Or are you going to steal these bottles?" Danny asked.
Malina looks at him as if he was crazy.
"Of course I'm going to pay for it!" She said.
"This is Hell, I'm sure that you have to pay for that a different way than how people buy things," Danny said.
Malina said nothing and started to head towards the check out counter. She then stops when she saw some of the Mall Guards.
"Shit!" She said.
"Malina, the Sour Demon. We thought told you that you're not allowed in here." One said.
"As if there another store around here! You won't let the CEO make another one!" Malina yells.
"And is that attitude is why we forbid you to return." He said and took the Vodka from her.
"HEY!" She shouted.
Danny didn't like this. He didn't know that Malina was forbidden to enter here, but she wasn't here for any trouble. These guys were actually like bullies, and he hates bullies.
"I'll have you know that she just wanted those drinks and be on her way. If you don't want trouble, then don't give her a reason to cause it!" He said.
"Wait, you're the human!" One of the guards said.
"Ah, the human that is going around and "helping" demons." Another guard said.
"It's what the CEO said I have to do if I want out of hell," Danny said.
The guards look at each other and then at Danny.
"Sorry human, but anyone with Malina is marked as a troublemaker as well. We have to take you in." The Leader said.
Danny didn't like this. All they were doing is grabbing something for Malina and be on their way. Then again, he was in hell. Nothing was easy.
"Troublemaker, huh? Dude, you don't know how much of a troublemaker I can be when I want to be." Danny said and quickly ran up to the guard holding the Vodka.
He runs up the body and kicks him in the chin. The vodka was send flying, and Danny kicks off the guard and grabs the vodka. He uses his powers to flip to his feet and looks at Malina. He could see that the sour look was still there, but her eyes showed she was surprised and impressed.
"Get them!" The Leader shouted.
Danny quickly put the Vodka away and looks at Malina, who groans.
"So, ready to kick some butt?" He asked.
Malina turns him surprised and nodded.
"Sure, I could some stress relief." She said.
The first guard reaches Danny and tries to grab him. Danny ducks under his arms and slid in between his legs. He stood up and kick the guard in the butt, knocking him on the ground. He spotted another guard coming at him and move to the side and stick his foot out. The guard didn't see and trips over it, falling into the first guard.
Malina knew they wouldn't hold back on her and decided not to do the same. The first one tried to punch her, but she blocks and swings her long nails, cutting the guard's throat. She saw another guard and punch him in the stomach. She then headbutts him, knocking him out. She turns to the first guard that stood up as the cut heal on his throat. She stood ready as the guard charges at her.
Danny was caught by one of the guards and was have a bit of trouble breaking free. His eye grows green and calls forth his powers, knocking the guard off him. He looks up and saw that Malina was fighting off three guards now, and she was having some trouble. Danny turns to the other guard and grabs him.
"Malina! Duck!" He shouted and threw him.
Malina heard Danny and duck as the guard that he threw slams into the three that were giving her a hard time. She looks back and nods in thanks. Smile still not showing.
"Look, we got what we came for, right? Then let's cut our chances and scram." Danny said.
"Sound good." Malina agrees.
The two turns and run from them.
"Get up, you fools! They're getting away!" The Leader shouted.
Danny and Malina ran towards the exit, and Danny looks back, seeing the guards were still after them.
"Jeez, how many times did these guys try to kick you out?" He asked.
"Five times. Most of the time, I'm able to sneak a bottle out." Malina said.
"There's got to be away to get rid of them..." Danny said and notices a sign close by.
"Malina! I got an idea! Follow me!" Danny said and headed towards it.
Malina looks confused and indeed follow him. The guards saw them and were wondering why they turn from the exit. They follow the two before Danny turns and shot an ecto beam from his fingers and shot off the chains. The sign fell and hit the ground. It started to rock back and forth, but Danny smirks. He walks up and gave it a small blow. The sigh then started to fall towards the guards and they all ran.
"Get back here!" The Leader shouted before the sign fell on told of him.
Danny steps up and notices that the guard was pin underneath it. He walks down the sign and heard him groan under the weight.
"Sorry, maybe you should have a "Watch for Falling Signs" sign around here," Danny smirks and continues to walk down the sign.
Malina also walks down the sign and stops before getting off. She made a stomp, cause the leader to yell in small pain before she steps off.
"Sorry." She said and gave a small smile.
The two brought the Vodka, and Danny was glad they took real money and left the store. Once they were far enough, Danny reaches behind him and pull out another bottle.
"What the?! When did you...?" Malina tries to ask.
"Well, I don't really like shoplifting, but I thought I grab one for you. On me." He smiles.
Malina took the bottle and looks at him. She then smiles and finally laughs.
"You are one son of bitch!" She said.
Danny smiles as she laughs. He knew his challenge was complete. Malina took a breath and looks at Danny, her smiles not fading this time.
"Danny, huh? Those guys are right, you are a troublemaker." She said.
"Only if I want to be." Danny snickers.
Malina looks at the bottle and sighs. She turns back to Danny and kisses his forehead, surprising him.
"Malina?" He asked.
"You tell anyone about this, I'll cut out your throat, Hell's Protection or not." She said.
"Okay, it will stay between us," Danny said.
Malina smiles, and opens one of the Vodka, and took a huge drink. Danny just watches, and she soon turns to him.
"Hey, do you like video games?" Danny asked.
"Hell yeah!" Malina said.
"How about a new deal. We keep this little adventure to ourselves and I'll play some games with you?" Danny asked.
"Heh, I hope you don't mind some turn-based strategy games," Malina said.
"Play a few. Not ready my thing, but they are fun." Danny said.
"Heh," Malina smirks.
Danny then held out his hand and smiles.
"Danny Fenton." He said.
Malina looks at it and smiles back.
"Malina, the Sour Demon." She said and shook it.
The CEO looks at the Mall Guards, laughing her guts out. She couldn't believe that boy had a bit of mischief to him. Now only did he outsmart the guards, he also got his hand on a bottle of Vodka without anyone noticing.
"My queen, you must let us hunt the human down! He must pay for embarrassing us!" The Leader growls.
The CEO stops laughing and looks at them.
"Request has been denied." She said.
"WHAT?!" The Leader shouted.
"The boy is not to be touch. I had given him Hell Protection. No one can harm or kill him." She said.
"But...but..." The Leader tries to say.
"But nothing! Dismiss!" She shouted.
The Mall Guards walk out of the room, with one rubbing the cut on his throat. The CEO leans back in her chair and started laughing again.
"Oh, Danny! You really sound like a really interesting guy! I'm looking forward to the day we meet." She said.
What she didn't know, is that some else was in the room, someone that had their eyes glow in the darkness.
"So, this human is "helping" the others, huh?" She asked.
And here you go. Since I'm getting more characters, I decided that Danny should go on an adventure with Malina in his guest of making her smile. Turns out all he had to do was be himself and relate to Malina in someway. In this case, both of them having sisters that they can't really stand. And that that person in the CEO room is not the one that brought him to Hell. That's is actually my second favorite Demon Girl and is the final boss of the game. Up next, Danny meets Malina's sister, Zdrada. I might need some help with a challenge with her. Oh, and about Beelzebub. I'm not going to have her appear in this story. Sorry.
