So, after rewatching the Pilot a few times, just to have an idea of how I think the story should go, I came up with this possible idea that others may be interested in, since the new episodes are now up, at least, two of them on kimcartoon. li/ possibly to get people interested in watching. lol
A Fox In A Hotel
Chapter 1
Pilot
Hell Streets
Right now, after a Purge from heaven, everyone was cleaning up and sorting their shit out, though as it turned out, one new arrival was a little confused at such a mess, "Holy shit, what the hell happened to this place, did a war happen or something!?"
As it turned out, this new arrival was an anthropomorphic fox with digitigrade legs, wearing an outfit that's fits the harlequin backdrop of the whole place. (A.N. I'll leave it to whoever adopts to choose what clothes he should wear.)
After walking for so long, he starts thinking to himself, "Okay Naruto, you're in a place that looks pretty weird and everyone look even weirded," Looks at his hands, "Even yourself, you ended up dying due to the bastard Uchiha wanting to take over the world and run things his way in the shadows or whatever and ended up here."
Right now Naruto was pretty much trying to get his head around the whole dying part, along with becoming a humanoid fox, though by the feel of his power, Naruto could tell he was far more stronger than anyone that he could sense around the place, though he managed to hide his strength level due to his past training.
As he was walking he managed to bump into someone, who were about to yell at him, but Naruto, sensing the person was about to try something against him, gave a "little" blast of his K.I. just to stop the guy from trying anything, "Sorry about bumping into you, I was wondering if you could tell me where I am please."
While Naruto did ask such a question politely, the demon in front of him was obviously queiled from trying to cause trouble with Naruto, "U-Um, y-y-you're a new arrival right, um, s-s-so as it turns out you're in hell for whatever sin you did while you were alive."
With that, Naruto nods his head in thanks, letting the demon run away from the more powerful demon, aka Naruto, though once the demon had vanished, Naruto began to wonder why he was in hell, going through the lists of things he might've done wrong, but for the life of him, he couldn't really think what he did that got him sent to hell of all places.
As he continues with his walk, a set of tvs in a window caught his attention, though there wasn't really anything on that really caught his eye, since right now he was trying to figure out if there was a way to get out of hell, though suddenly the tvs switched to the 666 News, where a young girl ended up talking about demons trying to get redemption and becoming better people in order to get into heaven, where the demons of the station began laughing at her, along with her going into a song, trying to "sell" her idea of helping demons get into heaven to stop the overcrowding.
Now this caught Naruto's attention, "That's not a bad idea, I mean, when you think about it, every demon was human once, until they started sinning for whatever it was they did and ended up down here, but a place that tries to make demons into better people, not a bad idea, though I think she might need a little help, hmmm, since it's not so much as making the demons into better people, since that could always be a "cover" but maybe making them face the thing that caused them to sin in the first place and accept what they did was- wrong!?"
Though while Naruto was thinking, he wasn't really listening to the news, but his eyes never left the screen, though, when Charlie starts getting into a brawl with the anchorwoman, that caused him to finish what he was thinking out loud in puzzlement.
Happy Hotel
Right now everyone in the hotel had just finished watching Alastor practically beat the snake demon with ease, that pretty much everyone left the snake alone in the creator that Alastor had made by causing the airship to explode, where the beaten snake fainted on the edge due to the amount of pain he was in.
"GGGAAAAAAAAAAAPPPPPMMMMMMM!"
That is until someone had accidentally stepped on his hand, causing him to slide back into the centre of the creator, catching the person's attention, "Oh, sorry about that, I didn't see you there!" They yelled out, figuring the guy would bounce back, seeing as the snake was in an explosion and everything.
Soon he made his way to the door.
"Knock! Knock! Knock!"
Waiting a few moments, the door swung open, with a spear pointing towards him, catching him by surprise, but managed to grab the blade between his index finger and thumb, holding the weapon in place, "Um!? Is this how you treat all newcomers that might be interested in working at this hotel!?"
Suddenly he was grabbed by a familiar blond who began jumping in joy at someone else wishing to be rehabilitated into getting into heaven, all the while the person kept hold of the spear blade, with it not moving an inch, no matter how much strength the wielder try to move it, though, right now, their attention was on the giddy Charlie, who was jumping around in joy like a kid that ate too much sweets.
"Um, is she always like this, or is this relatively new right now?" He couldn't help but ask the spearwoman.
After hearing the question, Vaggie couldn't help but answer, "Um, I would say new, but considering she wrestled with an anchorwoman early, I don't really know what to tell you." While she does care about Charlie to help her out with this Hotel idea, even she didn't predict Charlie to get this hyper.
With that, the person began introducing himself to the group, "Ahem! Okay, let me introduce myself, I'm Naruto Uzumaki, I got killed and sent her for some reason, no idea why, I saw what happened on the News," Charlie blushed in embarrassment at this, "And the thought of redeeming demons didn't sound like a bad idea, from what I gather from the "advertisement," Naruto gave Charlie an understanding look, showing that he was supportive, "But I think the whole redemption thing might need a few tweeks."
At this point, Vaggie started threatening Naruto, thinking that he was trying to "take over" Charlie's idea and hotel, but due to Naruto still holding the spear in place, she was struggling to get it loose from the fox demon, seeing this, Naruto simply cleared his throat, catching Vaggie's attention and stopping her from pulling, with Naruto raising an eyebrow and simply letting the spear go, causing Vaggie's eye to twitch that he wasn't really bothered.
Naruto soon continued, "I hope you don't find it offensive or anything, it's just, I think you might need someone to help you find out what people's problems are, what was it they did in the living world that caused them to end up in hell and figure out how to help them figure it out for themselves, ya know."
Hearing this started making Charlie think, while she wasn't one to turn people away in order to help them, but what Naruto said did have some truth to it, "So what you're saying is, we don't really need to figure out the "why" we want to help demons, since I've kinda covered it on the news (she still blushes in embarrassment about that), but we have to figure out the "how" we're gonna help them!?"
Here Naruto nods his head, "Right, you need someone to help give ideas on how to let people figure out what they did, I mean, what's the name where someone plans something for a group of people to do!?" Naruto couldn't help but ask, since he's never been to a proper hotel/rehab place before.
Charlie soon began getting an idea of what Naruto was saying, "You~ mean~ an Activities Director!" She soon see's Naruto's puzzlement, "Ahem! Someone who plans out activities for people, depending on what the hotel does."
With Naruto ah-ing, realising what Charlie said was exactly what he was referring to, "YEAH! That's it, you need an Activities Director, someone who'll help you plan out HOW to help people, otherwise you'll be diving in a pool without looking, like for example, you dive right into the deep end before the pool could even be filled, or the pool could be boiling hot or cold, like I said, it depends on the person that you'll be helping."
While the group was listening to his examples, Charlie couldn't help but become worried with each example, kinda like how Angel Dust ended up describing how he made the hotel look sad, like a limbless, orphan with progeria ct, of course Vaggie saw Charlie getting a bit. . . Troubled with what Naruto was saying, so she comforted her.
With Naruto seeing their reaction, suddenly jumped in, "Ur! W-What I mean is, I'd be more than happy to help you guys out in figuring a guest out in order to help them change their ways, I was actually pretty good at that while I was alive." Naruto quickly explained, along with rubbing the back of his neck in modesty about him helping people change their ways.
Hearing this, Charlie couldn't help but be happy at someone wishing to join their "team" in trying to rehabilitate others, along with gaining a little bit of insight of Naruto's past, though Vaggie on the other hand.
"Okay, so you want to help us, but we want to know why you do, what's in it for you!" She couldn't help but be distrustful towards Naruto, seeing as he pretty much just popped up out of nowhere, like Alastor, who at this moment was in the background, wanting to see how all of this would playout.
Naruto soon crossed his arms, trying to come up with a legit reason for wanting to help, "Hmm, honestly, I'm not sure, while alive I've always been a bit dense about certain things, but when I ended up down here, after coming to terms with it and everything, I come to realise that my best "skill" was always helping others, and after seeing Charlie nearly knock the teeth down that stuck up bitch on telly."
He smirked slightly towards Charlie, having a teasing look on his face, causing Charlie to groan in embarrassment, with Vaggie not helping by having a smile on her own face, though quickly shook it off to have a serious look back at Naruto, though it also didn't help that Alastor was chuckling silently in the background as well.
Naruto got back on track, "I've come to realise that my services could be more beneficial here than anywhere else, and if anyone causes trouble I can admit to being pretty strong to stop it, obviously I won't kill them, since that would defeat the purpose of the hotel, but I'd still be able to stop them in other ways."
Soon everyone agreed that Naruto seemed to be a stand up good guy, which kinda made them wonder why he was in hell in the first place, but they figured there must've been a reason or another, "Well my boy, glad to have you here! Please feel free to have a drink at our bar, free of charge seeing as it's your first day here! Ha Ha HaHA!" Alastor soon jumped in, dragging Naruto away to the bar.
With Naruto seeing the bar in question looks at it for a minute, "Huh! Okay, I guess having a bar would help people slowly get accustomed to drinking less, since you wouldn't want them going cold-turkey and having a sudden relapse or something."
Hearing this, Vaggie couldn't help but palm her face, she should've also realised that what Naruto said was true, if you suddenly just cut people off from alcohol they'll become irritated and do something bad, meaning that the best thing to do would be to gradually get them off the stuff, along with the drugs, just so they don't end up crashing at some point.
Hearing Naruto talk, Charlie was bursting at the seams in excitement, since Naruto hasn't even started working yet, but he's already seeing things that their group seem to be missing, "EEEEEEE! Isn't this amazing Vaggie! We've got someone who actually believes in my vision!" (ahem!) "B-Besides you of course, y-you'll always be my number one girl!"
She quickly corrected, since she didn't want to hurt Vaggie's feelings, with Vaggie smiling, showing that she knows Charlie didn't mean anything negative behind what she said, of course this doesn't mean she won't be keeping her eye on the new arrivals, especially Naruto, seeing as what he said about his motive sounded too good to be true.
Yet while Charlie joined the others in welcoming Naruto, with Naruto pushing Angel away, stating he doesn't swing that way, while yelling, "KEEP IT IN YOUR PANTS!"
All the while Niffty was climbing all over him like a jungle gym, though by the looks of things, Naruto didn't care, or more likely didn't really notice Niffty at all due to his power not seeing the girl as a threat.
But outside the hotel, the sign on top quickly changed by a zap of red lightning, changing the name from the Happy Hotel to the Hazbin Hotel yet in the background, Alastor's voice echoed.
"NOW STAY TUNED!"
The End.
That's your first chapter, I hope everyone enjoyed it, now granted the story mostly centered around Naruto becoming a demon and entering hell, along with becoming one of Charlie's staff member and believing in her dream, while everything else happened like the canon.
As for the pairing(s) I'll leave that to whoever adopts.
Also, to commemorate the new episodes, I'll write one more chapter, since I can picture Naruto managing to "outtalk" Adam and the angel, where it turns out, Naruto was sent to hell because God kinda believes in what Charlie wants, but sees she needed some help from someone who understands people better.
If anything, Naruto would give a slight "Lucifer" tv series twist to it, like at the end of the series, Lucifer ends up promising to stay in hell in order to help sinners with their problems by giving them psychology sessions, only with obvious differences.
I Do Not Own Naruto Or Hazbin Hotel.
