Hey Readers! I don't really have an author's note for this story, other then the fact that I LOVE Hazbin Hotel and wanted to write another one, but with a different plot and character. And mind you I had this planned out before the teaser dropped about the show returning in 2023, so for now, because the world building is still so new I'm adding my own stuff and taking my best gess.
A disclaimer, while Hazbin Hotel is defiantly a comedy, there will be some heavy stuff in this fanfic.
Also I am dyslexic so if there are any errors I missed I apologies.
Alright, hope you enjoy!
"Did they change the sign?" the young demoness cocked her brow, gazing up at the building. It was a lot taller then she thought, stylized in a red Victorian fashion with hundreds of windows. Though she wondered why there was a giant ship and a carousel stuck to the side of it.
A week had past since the Princess of Hell was on the NEWS, talking about her new innovation of deal with the over crowding in Hell. And while everyone laughed, there were already rumors going around.
The biggest one was that the Radio Demon had now set up shop inside the hote,. which could be a potential problem. She already knew the porn star was living there and while he obviously wasn't a threat, having an Overlord living under the same roof could be challenging.
"Whatever," she shrugged. Crazed roommates or not, she was fixated on following her plan. Pulling her luggage bag in one hand and a pet carrier in the other, she walked to the front door. She took a deep breath, channeling her nerves and knocked on the door.
Inside the Princess of Hell was sitting on the couch, looking at a weekly seclude in her lap. Resting her head in her hand, while twirling a pencil in her other.
"What ya doin' Charlie?" Vaggie asked, taking a seat next to her girlfriend.
Charlie frowned her brows together, "I'm just thinking, should we have group therapy on a weekday or weekend? I know we scheduled karaoke on Saturday..."
Vaggie smiled, finding it sweet that her girlfriend was planning. Though their peaceful time alone was interrupted by a tall, red hindrance.
"Karaoke you say?~" Alastor grinned down like a Cheshire cat.
"Uh yes, I was thinking that guests would get board sitting around, so we should do weekly activates!" Charlie smiled.
"My dear, while I do love the idea of group gatherings for "fun", I can not see sinners undertake healthy after-life lessons on their free time."
Vaggie narrowed her eyes up at him, "Well, it's mandatory, that's the hole point of her business," she reminded the ass-hat. She was still pissed with him for changing the sign.
But just as it seemed that the Overlord and moth were about to fight, they heard a knock. The three demons all turned to the front door. The princess's eyes lit up, could it be... is someone checking it?!
Quickly standing, she straightened her clothing, wanting to look nice. But as she began to head to the door, the Radio Demon beat her too it, "W-Wait- Alastor!"
She waited for about 5 seconds till the door flew opened and she was greeted by the devil himself; dressed in a red striped suit. His wide grin made her feel uneasy. Eyes searched around a moment before looking down to see the young demoness, she frowned, unsure if he did that on purpose.
"Welcome!" his voiced rang out, sounding like an old-fashioned radio, "I didn't see you down there!" her brow switched, "My apologize, welcome, to the Hazbin Hotel!"
"Thanks…" her deadpan expression didn't waver his cheery attitude.
"Come in, come!" wrapping his arm around her shoulders, he pushed her inside.
The demoness took a quick look around the lobby; the inside matched the outside, all in red and Victorian, though she was wondering why there was a bar in a rehabilitate manor. Behind the bar was a cat with large wings and sitting in front was the famous porn star.
Once inside, they were met by the princess. The young demoness felt a slight nerve, while Overlords where powerful yes, the spawn of the devil himself was far more powerful, though she didn't know if she knew that.
Charlie took noticed of the girl, who set her luggage bag and pet carrier down, her face lit up like a Christmas tree; her first guest! (besides Angel) She rushed over grabbing the girl's hand and shook it, "Welcome to the Happy Hotel, we are honored to have you and help you on your journey to redemption! What's your name?!"
"F-Fallon." her hole body shaking back and forth from the excited hand shake.
"Charlie, go easy on her." the moth demoness came over placing her hand of the princess's shoulder
"Oh- gosh, I'm sorry!" the princess blushed, relaxing she let go.
"No… worries." the room stopped spinning for Fallon. Clearing her throat, "it's nice to meet you... your highness." the young demoness wasn't sure if she should bow.
The princess giggled, "You can just call me Charlie. This is Vaggie and Alastor," motioning her hand to the demons in front, before pointing behind, "and that is Husk and Angel Dust." the cat payed her no mind, but the spider looked over, hearing his name.
Fallon gave a slight head nod, "Hi," but when the spider grinned, she knew he was gonna say something to get under her skin.
"Fallon? Like 'phallic'?" he snickered. Vaggie glared at him, ready to make him apologies.
The young demoness was not impressed, she could play his game, "Haha, it knows jokes. Too bad they're all miss-shots, but then again, isn't that your slogan."
Charlie and Vaggie's eyes widen, while Alastor's smile grew. Angel raised his brow, taking the challenge, "I think ya got the wrong address, the jailbait emporium is down the street." pointing to the door.
Fallon rolled her eyes, unamused, "You know, if you're gonna bitch, maybe you should crawl back up your giant vagina and stay there."
Angel growled, standing up, "Oh ya little-"
"OK!" Charlie step in, not wanting a fight to break out. Angel just rolled his eyes flipping the young demoness off from behind, going back to his drink.
Fallon narrowed her eyes, this is gonna be a 'fun'. She could handle insults, but she didn't like the fact that she was defiantly the youngest one here. And her clothing didn't help her case; black hoodie with a purple skeleton rib-cage heart, ripped navy-blue jeans, matching purple high tops converse and on her head were large white headphones. She basically screamed millennial.
Going back to introductions, Charlie asked, "So Fallon, if you don't mind me asking; what Ring are you from.
Fallon held back a groan, she knew this was coming, and while the Ring that she came from wasn't as bad as the one under hers, she still felt embarrass, "...I'm from the Envy Ring."
Alastor let out a single laugh, "Ah now that makes more sense," talking about her form. The Envy Ring was a fast black ocean, home to a unique diverse of sinners. If a sinner were to fall into the water, they most likely turn into a marine creature.
Fallon's took the form of a humanoid vampire-squid; her skin was an off white, the tips on her fingers glowed a neon blue, which matched her eyes, dark blue whites, with glowing blue iris. The 'squid-web' on her head made it look like she had hip-long hair, going from black to faded blue, the inside of the web was white like her skin and had suckers and hooks. Fallon gently blew the single strain of 'hair' in the center of her face out of the way.
"Heh, thought I smelled something rotting from outside," Angel took a jab, just loud enough from squid demoness to hear. Vaggie told him to shut up about being rude which he shrugged her off.
Fallon just rolled her eyes, "Yeah, well I maybe from the Envy Ring, I don't posses any envy. I just had bad luck when I landed." she told the princess.
Suddenly there was a "meow" from her carrier. Fading through the cage like a ghost, a chonky dark purple cat with one glowing-yellow eye in the center of it's face came out and rubbed against Fallon's legs.
"Cyclops, you're not suppose to come out yet!" Fallon panicked, quickly picking the cat up, "I'm sorry, she tends to go wherever she pleases. I-It's ok to have pets here, right?"
Charlie smiled at the demoness and her cat, "Oh course it is! Angel has his own pet!" which made Fallon looked over rising her brow, wasn't expecting that, "Do you any specific room you would like?" wanting to make her stay comfortable.
Fallon's face blushed a light blue, "Uh... is there a room that provides water..?"
"Of course! Let me show you!" picking up her luggage with Cyclops following behind, they pasted the bar and headed up stairs. Angel flipped off the young demon again, smirking, which she threw back at him behind her back.
Once they were out of view, Vaggie turned back to Angel, "What?"
"Real mature back there," she crossed her arms, "picking fights with kids? I knew you were childish, but I didn't know your ego was so sensitive-"
"Hey! The loudmouth brat insulted my reputation." he tried to justified himself, "For the record I never miss my shot," he winked at Husk who cringe back.
"Just try not annoy the other guests." Vaggie groaned.
The spider rolled his eyes, "Yeah, yeah... Though chances are she's just here for the free room," he smirked down at his cocktail.
"Now, don't have such little faith in our new guest!" Alastor walked over, "I sense that things are going to get much more interesting~"
Charlie lead Fallon through up the flight of stairs and down the red hallways. there were hundreds rooms then Fallon had thought. But at the very end of the fourth floor came a metal fall with an old-fashion submarine door. Turning the handle, Charlie pushed open the door; they were now inside the ship of the hotel. Murky blue lighting lit up the hallways, looking like the ship was underwater, circle windows showing outside and metal walls with pipes on the ceiling.
Fallon gazed around, at least it resembled her place back in the Envy Ring, "Here we are!" Charlie smiled in front of a door, "Room 455." opening the door for Fallon the young squid went in first.
Her eyes lit up, it was much bigger then she expected; the bedroom was darkly lit, but the glowing green and blue algae on the walls and ceiling gave off plenty of light. Large pipes with see-through water and bubbles along the walls and ceiling and two on either side of the large bed. The Bathroom was the same, with a large metal tub.
"I know it needs a little bit of fixing..." Charlie frowned, looking at the algae growing everywhere and the pipes were dripping water, "But I can get Nifty to help clean-"
"It's perfect." Fallon cut her off, "Very steampunky. Thank you..." Cyclops jumped on the bed already getting comfortable.
Charlie smiled, "Well great!" as she watched Fallon put her stuff on the bed she started listing off what the hotel had to offer, "Ok so the kitchen is on the first floor, breakfast is available at seven and dinner starts around five to six. We have group therapy on Thursdays, oh! And we're doing karaoke nights on Saturdays! There's also a pool aria just down the hallway. And," reaching into her pocket she pulled out a black key with an eye, "Here's your room key!"
"Uh- thanks." Fallon took it, "And... for you know, letting me stay." she rubbed the back of her head, looking to the side. Suddenly she remembered she hadn't pay for her stay yet! Quickly pulling out her wallet she fumbled to get it open, "Sorry, do you take chase for check?"
Charlie gave her gently smile, "You don't have to pay," Fallon blinked, looking back, "You coming here and wanting help, makes me feel like I'm not such a failure chasing a wild dream."
Fallon felt this twinge in her chest, "Ah- sure." her face blushed deep blue.
Charlie giggled, "Well I'll let you get settled," once she closed the door, Fallon finally relaxed
Sitting down on her new bed, she sighed, leaning back till she hit the matters. Cyclops came over rubbing against her cheek purring. Fallon smiled, scratching her head, "Phase 1: complete" sitting back up she unzipped her backpack and pulled out her laptop. opening it up, she started going through the files of the sinners who she now was bunking with, smirking "Phase 2: begins."
I know this is a short one, but I'm just setting the bench mark and already working on ch 2! :)
