Preamble

So! This is going to be fresh territory for me. Anyways, this is a Transformers and Hazbin Hotel crossover, which you probably knew from the title. Regardless, I want to make some things clear.

1. This is going to be my Transformers AU made by combining elements I like from different Transformers continuities. As such:

a. This Starscream will be an amalgamation of the traits I like about various Starscreams.

b. Galvatron and Megatron will be treated as two different people because I'm using the time-traveling one.

2. I am, by no means, an expert on Vivziepop's Hazbin Hotel universe. I got in on the pilot late, solely watched the Prime show recently, and barely finished Helluva Boss (at least up until S2 E7, I have no idea if there's more). As such:

a. I might have some inaccuracies in the story. Sorry in advance.

b. I'll be strictly using elements and stories from the pilot and official Amazon show unless I think it would work great, as I don't know much about stuff outside of the shows.

c. I may include original Sinners that I came up with on the spot, particularly the Hell Seekers.

Starscream

When that time-traveling Galvatron-whaterveritwas blasted me into smithereens, I died. I was sure of it. But, rather than becoming one with the Allspark, I was sent to Hell, where human Sinners go when they die. Frankly, I don't know why, but that's beyond me.

I initially panicked when I woke up, but quickly got my bearings. Once I did, I began to look around. I found out that I was in the pride ring of Hell, but besides that, I had no clue about anything else. So, I went to find answers.

First on the list was figuring out what I was. I was about the size of a human, that was obvious, but what I exactly looked like was beyond me. Especially seeing what the Sinners had been turned into. So, off I went to find a mirror.

When I found one, I looked to find whatever hideous creature I had been reduced to but found my appearance to be not that bad. My face looked rather serpentine, with eagle feathers in a pattern reminiscent of hair. I had eagle wings and talon-like hands, with distinctly Decepticon blood-red eyes.

I was dressed in a red aviator jacket with gray sleeves and blue wrists. I had fingerless gloves on and goggles around my head. There was what appeared to be a fighter pilot oxygen mask hanging around my neck. I wore jeans and combat boots, along with shoulder, elbow, and knee pads. Additionally, I had a cloak.

After resolving the issue, I decided to check whether I had retained all my abilities. Fortunately, I was able to fly without any difficulty, and after some experimentation, I discovered that I could still fire energy beams from my arms, similar to my null rays. Although I could no longer use cluster bombs, I found out that I could throw my feathers like throwing knives, create energy swords, and deliver powerful punches with energy blasts. Additionally, my screech ability was still intact.

After sorting out my appearance and abilities, the next step was to understand how the politics of Hell worked and how I could gain power. As I explored the place and defeated especially nasty Sinners, I discovered from the more polite Sinners that the hierarchy of Hell was structured as follows: Lucifer Morningstar and his family were at the top, followed by the Seven Deadly Sins, the Goetia royals, the Overlords, the Sinners, the hell-born, and finally, at the bottom were the imps and hellhounds. I realized that most of the inhabitants of the Pride ring were Sinners, with the particularly powerful ones becoming Overlords. With that knowledge, I had a clear goal in mind - to become an Overlord.

I discovered that to become an Overlord, one could either negotiate with more powerful demons or seize power by force. However, I was certain that I would never agree to a deal that could potentially enslave me. Moreover, I had previously attempted to climb the ranks by serving other bots in power, but it did not turn out well. Therefore, I decided to take the path of conquest. My first step was to rebuild my Seekers.

As it was when I was alive, I wanted flyers. Unfortunately, being a new arrival doesn't get you much in terms of respect. Plus, I couldn't find many flyers. The most promising one, Husk, just so happened to be under the ownership of Alastor, one of the Overlords, so I couldn't recruit him. And, even though Alastor was missing, his contract still applied.

With the option of rebuilding the Seekers off the table, for now, what I had to resort to was a brutish show of force. I knew I wanted spectacle, and I needed a target. That left me with Carmilla Carmine's Warehouse, Rosie's Cannibal Town, and the Three Vees' Tower. Not wanting to attack willy-nilly, I went to scope out each potential target.

First, I went to stake out Carmilla's Warehouse. I found that she deals special weapons that are capable of killing even the most powerful demons, Angel's Steel. I decided that getting in her good graces and having access to these powerful weapons was better than attacking her with the off-chance that I got enough recognition to become an Overlord. Plus, she was rather prominent in the Overlord crowd.

Next up was Cannibal Town. Despite the name, I found it to be rather pleasant. If you could ignore all the cannibalism, it would be quite a great place to live. As well, its resident Overlord, Rosie, was rather kind. It all reminded me of what Vos used to be. I decided I didn't want to destroy such a nice place.

That left me to stake out the Three Vees' tower. It was a combination of three different industries, go figure. It had television, fashion, and porn. Frankly, I found the first two boring and the last revolting. When I inspected the resident Overlord trio, I almost laughed. Comprising the "powerful" Vees was loser talk show host Vox, bratty influencer Velvet, and drug-addicted man-whore Valentino. What's worse, Vox only had such a large audience due to mind control. I found his method of control to be repulsive and vile. No true ruler worthy of power would stoop so low as mind control. Despite this, they were still a major name, so I had my target.

After a few preparations, I donned my goggles and mask and pulled the cloak over my head. Then, off I went to the Three Vees' Tower. It wasn't much of a flight there, but I kept on having to go to lower altitudes to avoid the pesky Pentagram.

Once I got there, I pulled my cloak to hide my wings, intending to pose as an investor to get close to Vox. However, it didn't take long for me to find him, as he and his comrades were doing a meet-n-greet. All I had to do was sneak into the front of the line. That was a bit difficult seeing as I was much taller than everyone else there, but I managed.

"Hello, how do you do, good day sir." Vox blankly greeted. However, I seemed to catch his interest most. "Wait... I don't think I've seen you around before. You new here?"

"Yes, I am," I answered.

Vox questioned, "Well, what do you want? Looking for a job?"

"Oh, no," I smirked under the mask, "just looking to invest."

Vox seemed to light up at this. "Oh, I see. Barely got here and already looking to invest in the future. Gotta say, respect the hustle. What's your name?"

I smiled as I took off my mask and goggles, pulled my hood down, and let my wings spread to their full length. "My name's Starscream."

"Huh, cool name. Tell me, how'd you come up with it?"

"Like this." I declared before unleashing my screech, blowing Vox back. Then, I blasted a hole into the wall so I could get outside and fly. After all, you can't fly very well inside a tech store.

The other Vees, Velvet, and Valentino, came out to check what was going on, along with various Sinners.

"Vox, what the fuck is going on?!" Velvet demanded.

Valentino pointed at me and asked, "And who's this?"

Vox climbed out of the pile of rubble and snarled, "That's the bastard I'm going to turn into a carpet."

"Oh, I'm sooooo scared." I mockingly exclaimed.

Vox shouted, "Get his ass!"

When he said that, dozens of gun-touting goons rushed out and began firing at me. I easily maneuvered around the bullets as I launched razor feathers at them. I used my screech to knock them off balance and slammed into the ground with a blast. Coincidentally, I also ended up clipping Velvet's dress with one of my feathers.

The brat yelled, "Oi! You ruined my dress!"

"Yeah," I asked, "so what?"

"Oh, I'm really going to make you pay, bitch." she sneered as she rolled up her sleeves, looking like she was making her best impression of someone who could actually fight.

"Oh, I'm not just any bitch." I exclaimed, "I'm The Bitch." as I used my null beams to blast her away and knock out the tower's power.

Vox tried to use his television powers, but unsurprisingly, he couldn't. He shouted, "What the hell did you do?!"

"Null Rays. Renders any electronic temporarily inoperable." I bragged.

"Oh, you're gonna get it when the power comes back."

I laughed as I summoned a sword and flew up, cutting power lines. "Power can't come back online if you aren't plugged in!"

This seemed to tick Vox off, as he snarled, "AGH! VAL! GET HIS ASS!"

"With pleasure, Voxey." the moth stated as he began to fly up, dual guns in hand. He started shooting at me, but I effortlessly dodged, per usual. After a few minutes of missing miserably while I mocked him, Valentino suddenly got a lot more frustrated and shouted, "Hold still, putó!"

"Oh, someone really should have told you." I taunted.

"What?!" Valentino shouted.

I grinned as I flew in, declaring, "Never challenge a Seeker to a dogfight!"

Before he could react, I used a sword to clip one of his wings and nick his Achilles tendon. He shouted in pain as he spiraled down, landing with a thud. See, you don't have to cut off the whole wing, you just need to clip it enough. Anyway, I landed right in front of Valentino.

Velvet shouted, "Oh you'll pay for this now!" as she began running towards me. I simply responded "I don't have time for brats." I used my punch to knock her out and used feathers to pin her to the ground. With her out, all that was left was Vox.

He glitched, "You p-p-prick... I'll sh-show you sufferi-ing." as he lumbered towards me. I merely smirked as I leisurely flew up to him and stomped him into the ground, pinning him under my boot.

I taunted, "Well, looks like today isn't your day."

"F-u-u-uck you…" he sneered.

I laughed and was about to fly away, but the sight of a news camera crew caught my eye, and I got an idea.

"Oh, by the way, Vox?" I asked.

"Wha-a-at the fu-fu-uck do you wa-ant?" he snarled, buffering.

I smirked as I leaned in, lifted him by the neck, and showed his face to the camera. I ordered, "Tell your viewers that there's a new Overlord in town."

Just wanted to include a link to the design I was referencing for my Sinner Starscream, but I couldn't. So, I'll just say that I based my design heavily on Ashesfordayz's Starscream Human Design-Transformers Cyberverse on Deviantart.
