The black snow raged on through the streets of Mammonpolis. Alessio quietly drove through the city silently in a medium sized camper van. In the back of the van sat Sugar and seven shark rolled his eyes as he heard Sugar laugh and flirt with other members of the crew. "She's not supposed to be here" he thought to himself. He lit a cigar in one hand and gripped onto the steering wheel with the other. Being tasked with bringing a bratty woman to do such an important job was something that worried him greatly. But, orders are orders.
"Ale! Are we there yet?" Sugar whined
Alessio didn't respond and kept looking forward. He knew the only reason Sugar came with them to visit the shopping district. He sighed to himself. "Crim used to have women a lot classier around." he pondered. Crimson should be with someone more professional. Crimson should be somewhat more silent and obedient.
"Someone like you?" Sugar smirked
"Get the fuck out of my head!" Alessio growled.
"Ha! Maybe don't make your emotions so exposed to me. Leo knew how to lock up his feelings better. I wonder if it's because you're so old." Sugar laughed while comfortably lying between two larger shark demons.
"I hope you have this much enthusiasm when we reach the factory. Do you remember what the boss told ya to do?"
Sugar rolled her eyes. "Obvi. I will never forget what my Crimmy says. You boys wanna use my adorable voice to disturb the Fizzies. Easy."
The sharks laugh. One of them shouted "Calm down girlie. Sit a little closer to me"
"Kay!"
Alessio's eyes twitched as heard Sugar excitedly sit closer to the other sharks but he kept driving forward.
Mammonpolis could be compared to an amusement park. Every tower in the city was illuminated with lights the color of emerald and golden. Various monuments that were supposed to represent popular locations from other rings of hell. One monument stood out to Sugar the most. It was a statue of a succubus with the seal of Jezebel on its chest.
Alessio took notice of Sugar's discomfort and chuckled."Mammonpolis is famous for ritzy joints. I think Jezebel opened a club around here. Let's go there after we wreck the factory"
Before Sugar could object to this idea, the sharks pushed her to the side and started excitedly talking about the type of girls that work at Jezebel's. Alessio could see Sugar's wings twitching in the rear view mirror and he was loving every second of her anger.
They arrived behind a silver building with four smokestacks on top of them. The water beneath the factory was gray and murky. Alessio stepped out of the camper and opened the door of Sugar and the sharks. Sugar heels tapped as they landed against the hard concrete. Her bubblegum colored coat with a fluffy white upper collar contrasted against the black jackets that everyone else was wearing.
Sugar's perspective
Sugar felt the cold snow against her wings and shivered. She was slightly shaken by the mention of Jezebel. Alessio and Crimson were the only ones who knew she used to work for her. She didn't want to think of her past or irritation with Alessio. Her job was more important. After leaving the family for so long, she had to prove to these guys that she was still trustworthy. She was desperate not to end up like Leo.
She was tasked with interrupting and distracting the Fizz bots but she wasn't sure how to do that. A true succubus would be able to use their voice to force their way into it, but that wasn't an ability she naturally possessed. She put her claws into her coat pocket and fumbled around in it so she remembered the items she had in there. She had: Essence enhancing syrup, stiletto knife, several packs of gummy bats. Nobody here expected her to be a killer or do any damage so she packed lightly. A part of her loves being underestimated because it meant she wasn't given any larger responsibilities.
She walked into the factory alone. The walls were a shadowy silver color and littered with various posters of Mammon. One poster that stood out to her was one with Fizzarolli holding up Mammon's large frame in his skinny arms.
"Disturbing." She whispered to herself as she walked along the silent halls. She held her claws tightly against her chest. The quietness and emptiness of the factory was strange and unexpected. To distract herself she decided to hum a song she had heard many times as a child. A song that was once performed by the queen of hell.
"That's quite an outdated tune." A robotic voice echoed throughout the halls. A lanky, robot demon with bright lime colored eyes. It was a version of Robo Fizzarolli. This one was different from the Fizz from the amusement parks. The expressions on his face were colder and darker in comparison. The robot had on a navy blue jumpsuit and Mammon's symbol on his cheek. He had an unlit cigar hanging from his mechanical lips. "What are you doing here?"
Sugar gasped at the sudden appearance of the Robo Fizzarolli. She had never seen a version of Fizzarolli that looked like this. His mannerism reminded her a lot of Crimson. "I'm a part inspector. I inspect fizz parts."
"After the amount of deaths that happened in this factory, we don't use fleshy workers anymore. So who the hell are you?" Factory Fizz said with a gruff yet automated tone.
Sugar froze. Nobody told her that the factory was filled with only bots. She pulled out her bottle of Essence syrup and took a swig of it. This was gonna be her toughest task she ever did for Crimson.
