AshFan: Ya know, I might do an Ash x Helluva Boss fic in the future.
TaiKetch'em: … What?
AshFan: Hear me out, alright. Ash exists in a world without Pokemon and he-
TaiKetch'em: Dude, I asked if you thought we could use normal bagels to make bigger pizza bagels. How TF did we get to you talking about an Ash x Helluva Boss fanfic?
AshFan: I just… I got reminded of Helluva Boss hearing about a new episode later so-
TaiKetch'em: Also didn't you already make an Ash x Helluva Boss fanfic?
AshFan: No, that one was with him and Octavia getting together. This one is different.
TaiKetch'em: So Ash would be paired with another girl?
AshFan: Exactly.
TaiKetch'em: And he'd be killing people in that idea?
AshFan: Yep.
TaiKetch'em: And what? Does this idea also include a harem?
AshFan: Ye-Well, actually no.
TaiKetch'em: One girl?
AshFan: Two girls… maybe just one, IDFK.
TaiKetch'em: Are you actually gonna do it, or are you gonna forget about it and it'll be lost with your other ideas?
AshFan: Well, it's not set in stone, but… I don't know, I might discard it.
TaiKetch'em: I really think you should keep track of how many ideas you have in that head of yours.
AshFan: Like you're any better. The non-OC version of you hasn't posted in over a year, bout to be two years.
TaiKetch'em: Oh, okay. Well, what about your non-OC version? Remember the 'Wolf Ash Ketchum' and 'Female Reader' fics he still hasn't updated, yet he decided to upload an Ash x Helltaker story? Really consistent.
Why did I put these two in the same room again? Okay, this chapter is gonna be episode two, and whether the next chapter is gonna be episode three or a chapter between then is… still being decided. Still, we can assure you that you guys… okay, we can't assure you that you'll like it, but at least maybe enjoy what we write.
Okay, BREAK IT UP YOU TWO! We need to answer some questions!
Number 1: Aren't all the exorcists female? Wait, they're all female? This can't-hold on… Oh, they're all female. Huh, so none of the exorcists in canon are ma-Okay, uh… well, this is a fanfic, maybe we can make a small exception.
Number 2: Will Charizard get a badass entrance? Hey, we ain't gonna do him dirty, I'll tell ya that.
Number 3: What's with the new angel?... I mean… uh… well… Ya see, we uh… okay, the reason we decided to include him is for-
(Hell, Hazbin Ho-
NO-NO-NO! We are not doing that. As stated, Tai has made some OCs that he and I wanted to include in this story. He is just one of the few.
(Hell, Hazbin Hotel)
"Okay, so the extermination is coming in six months instead of a year." Charlie says while she started pacing around the room. "No big deal just a little setback. Nothing we can't handle. Just angels cutting our timetable in half, but who needs a whole year to save souls? Am I right? And next time when they cut the time in half again, and then again, we'll just HANDLE IT! RIGHT!"
"Yes, we will." Vaggie says while grabbing her to calm her down.
"All this because we pitched an idea to help souls. This isn't fair. They just can't do this." Ash says as he stood up from his seat. "Even if these angels are horrible, they have to have some kind of rules to follow, right?"
"Kid, I don't think they really care about what's fair to us demons." Angel Dust tells him.
"Unfortunately, as much as I hate agreeing with him, he's right." Vaggie says.
"Besides, ya had less than half a chance when starting all this salvation bullshit. And now… ain't no silver lining this time." He says before his phone starts buzzing.
"Sure there is. We just have to look harder for it." Charlie says, trying to keep the mood from getting down. "And also, I'm sure the person up there that sent Ash here must have some way to get involved and do with it."
"Girl, if I'm being honest, I don't think anyone up in Heaven sent that kid down here to help. Especially if they're pulling some bullshit like this." Angel says as the boy opens his mouth to say something, but closes it and sighs. "Plus, I think you should be worrying about the rest of Hell going batshit crazy. Seriously, check out what's happening in the Doomsday District." He says before showing his phone which had a guy screaming on fire before a message popped up.
"Uh… what's a donkey show?" Ash asked with a brow raised.
"Pika." Pikachu also says.
"AH! N-nothing!" Angel says while hiding his phone. "Just my boss, Val is freaking out about the news, too. Like I said, everyone's losing their shit."
"Yeah, now that he mentions it, sinners are desperate at this point." Vaggie says putting a hand to her chin. "Maybe desperate enough to try anything to escape the extermination?" She then says while looking at the princess who gasped in realization.
"This is the perfect time to recruit more sinners for the hotel!" Charlie says with her usual bright smile.
"That's it. Maybe they'll finally be willing to give this place a chance." Ash also chimes in while Pikachu also chirps in agreement.
"Yeah, cute idea and all, but you really gonna go out in all this?" Angel says before raising his phone to show them more demons suffering.
Right at that moment, Ash suddenly felt a tingle up his back, but he couldn't make heads as to what it was.
"Well, it's not like people are just gonna show up on our doorstep." Charlie says.
The feeling didn't go away for the trainer as he tried to figure out what was causing it. Then his eyes widened before he looked at the nearby wall, just where the princess and her girlfriend stood. Before they could ask what he was doing, he lunged. Then right as he got them down, the wall suddenly burst open sending pieces that would've hit them crashing and sending Infernape flying while Tauros barely noticed any hit him.
After a second, Ash pushed himself up as the girls blushed from having been saved once more from him.
"Show yourself, Alastor!" An accented voice echoed from outside.
"Oh geez." Ash said as he got up with Pikachu hopping onto his shoulder and they ran out. "Alright, I don't wanna fight, but if you-Oh wow…" He stopped short as he looked up in the sky.
There was no one on the ground, but flying in the air was a giant mechanical blimp that looked like it had a face with a pointy nose, and sticking out of the mouth were three different types of blasters. Safe to say he was thrown off from the sight alone.
"Ugh, not this guy again." Vaggie groaned as she stepped out with her spear ready.
"Again?" The boy asked in astonishment as the rest of the gang stepped out from the destroyed wall.
"Come and face-" The voice echoed before pausing. "Oh, there you are. FACE MY WRATH!"
"And who are you?" Alastor says as the gang looks up to see him enjoying tea on the lower balcony.
"Who am I? Who am I!? I am the great Sir Pentious! Inventor, architect of destruction, villain extraordinaire!" The voice called back with pride as Alastor came down to the group with his shadows.
"*Gasp!* Ooh, he's a bad boy." Niffty says after climbing up the radio demon's shoulder before he places her down.
"Ha, well if all that's true, you'd think I'd have heard of you."
"I attacked you literally last week." The voice says back, waiting for a response, not to get one. "We've done battle like twenty times? He continues, miffed.
"Well, you must've been really bad at this." Alastor says with a chuckle.
"Silence! And cower! For when I've sssssslain you, the almighty Vees will finally recognize me as their equal!"
"Ooh!" Niffty says while popping up on the radio demon's shoulder, this time with Gible biting her head. "Wait who are the Vees?"
"Oh, nobody important."
"I'm sorry, what's this guy's deal?" Ash asked, not understanding.
"He has some kind of vendetta against Mr. Freakshow here. Or some shit, I don't fucking know." Angel says.
"Clearly hasn't learned his lesson the first time." Vaggie says as well. "Do you think maybe you can get one of your Pokemon to get rid of this guy?"
Ash took a moment and a look around. Firstly the blimp was far bigger than Team Rocket's hot air balloon so Pikachu might not be able to do anything, but then he looked at Gible who was still gnawing on Niffty's head before picking him off.
"Well, Gible knows something called Draco Meteor that might help." He proposed.
"Okay, now would be a good time." Vaggie says.
"The time for talking issss over!" Pentious echoed. "It's time to push buttons."
Ash just shrugged before placing the little shark Pokemon down in front of him. "Alright. Use Draco Meteor!"
"Pfft, the hell is that thing sssupposed to do?" The voice called back, not noticing the glow in Gible's mouth.
(Meanwhile)
In the city in one of the giant buildings with V's on them, we get dragged down to what appears to be a basement full of TV screens that were playing random stations and some videos of demons with spiraling eyes. All of them repeated one phrase over and over again.
"Trust, us!"
Standing in the middle of them all was one being who was laughing as electricity went into his body. A man wearing a suit with blue stripes, a red bowtie, and a TV-shaped head, stood up and spread his arms as he cackled while more electricity went into his body.
"Now that's good television!" He laughed as his left iris turned into spirals.
Then his face suddenly started honking while showing a picture of a girl and text saying 'Velvette is calling'. He then took it off his face and sent it to one of the screens revealing a girl who looked annoyed.
"Hello, Velvette." He says while sitting with a smile as he grabs a mug. "How are you this hellish morning?"
"Cut the shit, Vox. I need you up here now!" The girl in the video says as screams fill the background.
"Whatever could be the problem my dear?"
"Your little boy toy is wrecking my department while I'm trying to put together a show and-" Velvette started to say before blood sprayed on the camera. "JUST GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE NOW! Dammit Valentino!" She yelled before the video cut off.
Immediately, the TV head lost his smile and stood up while walking away from his chair. "Oh god, here I go. Valentino. Just another fucking day with Val. Hey, hey, hey. Fuck my life." He says the last part in a TV filter before stopping as the platform below rises.
AshFan: Can we just skip this part? It's not really important.
TaiKetch'em: Firstly: no. Secondly: we need to let everyone know about who the Vees are.
AshFan: I don't think we NEED to do that. Pretty sure 90% of these readers have y'know, watched the show, so I don't think they need a repeat of these scenes.
TaiKetch'em: Yeah, well the 10% who haven't seen it will probably be interested.
AshFan: I'm pretty sure those 10% are trying to avoid spoilers.
TaiKetch'em: If they wanted to avoid spoilers, they would've just watched the show themselves!
AshFan: I've read hundreds of fanfics of shows I haven't seen and couldn't give less of a shit!
TaiKetch'em: AND?! What is your point?!
BREAK IT UP ALREADY! Time and place!
The platform stopped at two doors which opened up and he stepped out forming a smile. Right as he did, he was crowded by hundreds of reporters, still holding his smile.
"Mr. Vox, what are your thoughts on the new extermination deadline?" One asked.
"My dear people, we at VoxTek Enterprises have always been at the forefront of innovation. And now with this new oncoming threat, we are shifting our focus to your protection." He says in a calm voice and a kind smile. "That is why we are proud to announce VoxTek Angelic Security is coming soon!" He says as a TV shows up repeating the last few words. "Trust us, with your safety." He finishes before everyone in the audience suddenly had their eyes spiraling.
"Uh, sir, when did we begin working on Angelic Security?" A worker asked.
"Thirty seconds ago." Vox says while dropping his smile as he starts walking away. "Try to get that bitch Carmilla on the books and cancel my appointments today. I have a fire to put out upstairs." He says before he turned into electricity and went into the nearby camera.
After a second, he popped up in what appeared to be a fashion showroom just behind the girl he was talking to earlier.
"Burn it like the witches who wore it!" Velvette says while throwing an outfit at a worker.
"Oh, Velvette. I can see you're busy. Tell me, where's our hotheaded friend now?" Vox asked.
"Up in his tower, waiting for a flat-faced prince to calm him down."
"Ugh…" Vox sighed, losing his smile for a second before regaining it. "And uh… what's gotten him so, out of sorts today?"
"Who knows! But he tore up my best model! And you know the show can't wait for that unlucky BITCH to pull herself back together." She says while grabbing a dismembered arm from a pile one of her employees was carrying and throwing it. "MELISSSA! Get over here!"
A demon girl walked onto the display and Velvette started summoning dresses like she was swiping on a dating app.
"No. No. Hideous. I want to die. *GASP!* Yes! That's the one!" She says on one dress.
"Well, looks like you got everything under control here." Vox says.
"Of course I do. Fuck you!" Velvette says while flipping the bird at him. "Take care of the piss baby!"
Vox then left the place, going upstairs till he came to doors with door guards opening them for him, releasing a red mist out of it as he walked inside, looking annoyed. He looked around the room for who he was supposed to be meeting, finding them on the couch. The one in question is a four-armed demon wearing a long fancy coat and a tophat with heart-shaped glasses, this presumably being Valentino.
"Fucking finally!" The demon says before smashing a glass on the floor. "KITTY! Another drink!" He then commanded a robot that zipped away. "Can you believe what that piece of shit did?" He says as he was handed a glass before chucking it. "THE UNGRATEFUL WHORE!"
Vox casually sidesteps, avoiding the glass as it shatters against the wall. "Uh, which whore are we talking about this time?"
"Fucking Angel Dust! Who the fuck else would I be talking about?!" Valentino says in anger as the TV head tries to and fails to get a word in. "That fucking slut walked out on me. ME!" Losing interest, Vox takes out his phone. "I fucking made him! Without me, he's just a bag of meat with some mildly entertaining holes."
"Oh, Angel quit?"
"NO! He didn't fucking quit. It's worse. He moved!" Valentino then grabs and throws Vox's phone at the wall, breaking it and leaving the TV head looking annoyed. "He thinks he can just walk in here, work, and then go home somewhere else. Can you FUCKING believe that?!" He then walked by. "He thinks he can run off and shack up with Lucifer's bimbo daughter."
"Angel is living with Lucifer's daughter now?" Vox asked, raising a brow as the other demon opened his closet.
"Yeah, that bitch! Chalkie or Chandler or something manish like that. She's got this hotel and-" He stops midway before turning with a smile, holding up two guns. "Which of these makes me look sexier?"
"Heh, what are you doing Val?... You're not going over there."
"That slippery twink is going to remember who owns him." Valentino says while turning back to the closet and pulling out another gun. "I'm gonna fuck everyone in that rancid shithole, I swear to god."
"VAL!" Vox practically yells in a distorted voice while forcing Valentino around to face him before laughing. "Think of it this way. Our brand is perfection." He then wraps an arm around him before taking him to the window. "What do you think chasing whores around town will do for our image?" He asked while taking the gun away from him.
"Ugh… fuck it up?"
"Right." Vox says as an audience cheer plays. "Do you want people thinking you can't control your employees?"
"No."
"Exactly, and hey, you still have him under contract. He's not going anywhere. So, you should…?" Vox trailed off for a moment.
"Do nothing-"
"GREAT idea!" A casino-winning noise or whatever it's called played after that as he removed his arm. "Now that's why they pay you the big bucks!"
"Ugh, but I really wanted to shoot someone." Valentino says while taking out a cigarette holder.
"Welp, I'll call up the lowest earners this month." Vox says while lighting it with a spark before walking away to the monitors.
"Oh, you know me too well." Val says before taking a puff and exhaling heart-shaped smoke. "Ya know, Angel isn't the only one in that ratty hotel with the devil's princessa." He says the last word in a heavy accent.
"Oh, who else is there? Someone who owes you money?"
"Hehe… someone who owes us much more than money. The Radio Demon is there."
As soon as he finished his sentence, Vox's face brightened and sparks started appearing around his body as he dug his claws into the table, laughing to himself before turning back with a deranged smile.
"What did you say?"
"You heard me."
"Alastor is back, and he is with Lucifer's d-da-ughter…" Vox starts saying while walking up to Val, losing his smile. "And that wasn't the first FUCKING THING YOU THOUGHT TO TELL ME?!" He practically screamed while yanking the other demon down by his collar.
"Hey, killing Alastor is your kink. Not mine." Valentino says while going to sit by the screens, the big one turning on, revealing the hotel.
Vox jumped over and stared at the screen in rage, seeing the blimp before something was sent flying at it and exploding it, creating echoing screams before the camera panned down, showing the crew while Alastor was glitching out on camera.
(Back with the hotel)
After using Draco Meteor, Gible turned back to the crew and pumped his fist victorious as smoke bellowed out from his mouth as everyone apart from Ash and his other Pokemon looked shocked.
"Woah-ho." Vaggie says in amazement.
"T-that little… can do that? Holy shit." Husk says as Nifty giggles.
"Pretty much, yeah. He may be small, but he is powerful." Ash says as his Pokemon stands proud. "And there's a lot more where-" He started to say before something fell on him, cracking and covering him in yellow goo. "... Agh! What the…" He smelled it. "I-is this egg?"
Charlie opened her mouth to say something before big eggs came crashing down to the ground. Some splattering on the red dirt upon impact. Seeing that, the boy sighed in annoyance as Pikachu chuckled a little. He glared at his partner Pokemon before hearing a groaning noise and turning around, seeing an egg rise and rub its head.
"I think I scrambled myself." It said.
Ash's eyes then widened before he looked around, seeing more get up with their shells having minor cracks in them. Then he looked down, seeing the top of one shell lying at his feet, its eyes still blinking as realization hit him.
"... Did… did I just…" He says.
"Of course you did. And I must say, that performance was absolutely spectacular!" Alastor says with joy.
"Oh, man. I killed so many people."
"Well, you didn't actually kill them. These guys will be back." Angel says reassuring him, which calms him down. "But that also means you're covered in their blood and guts now." He then says with a toothy grin that makes the boy's eyes widen again.
"AH! EW! EW! EW! EW! EW!" He freaks out while taking his hat and jacket off, shaking them. "Oh, crap! Are you kidding me!"
"Really, Angel?" Vaggie asked.
"What? I couldn't resist." Angel chuckled as Pikachu face palmed.
Then they heard a scream come from above as a snake man came crashing down in front of them. He lay face-first in the dirt as Alastor walked up to him.
"Is that… was he the guy in the…?" Ash asked.
"Yes." Just about everyone there says.
"Thanks for another forgettable experience." Alastor says condescendingly.
"T-thank you…" The snake man groaned. "FOR LETTING YOUR GUARD DOWN!" He then sent his tail at him, ripping off a piece of his suit, and cackled to himself before the Radio Demon growled in anger. "Oh shit."
Next thing they knew, there was a big explosion of green smoke as the snake was sent flying across the city. Seeing how it happened and watching Alastor shrink back to normal before adjusting his tie like it was nothing, the boy and his Pokemon looked a little shocked and somewhat frightened especially what he turned into at that moment.
"Well, it looks as though I'll need a visit to the tailor. Best of luck, chums!" The Radio Demon says while getting ready to walk off.
"You're leaving?" Vaggie says in disbelief. "Alastor, we need your help. We need you to do your job."
"We need a new wall." Angel finishes, referring to the damaged wall.
"Of course, can't let my new project fall into disrepair already. What would the papers say?" Alastor says, the last part of him sounding normal before he snaps his fingers.
Then black and white demons manifested out of normal, one coming out of the ground under Pikachu, spooking him. Angel giggled before shoving Vaggie aside as he walked over.
"Hey, sweet cheeks. Whatcha doin' later? ~" Angel says seductively. "I love me a man with a giant… tool. ~"
"... I do not wanna even know what he means by that." Ash says uncomfortably while wringing egg out his jacket.
(Meanwhile)
"See? Look, at how he flirts with that guy, and he's not even paying him! Who is that? I'm gonna fucking kill his whole fucking family." Valentino says before turning away from the screen at the seething TV head. "Vox? Vox?"
Vox wasn't listening. His face was glitching out as he stared at the screen, gritting his digital teeth while seeing the radio demon glitching out the camera by just being on it.
"That fucker is back!" He yelled.
"Yeah, I thought he was gone for good to." Valentino says while turning away from the screen.
"It's been seven years!"
"You still pissed he almost beat you that one time?"
"Uh, fuck you!"
"Just saying." Valentino says while sitting on the desk before taking another look at the screen and his eyes widen.
"Things have changed a lot since he left town."
"Yeah, but… have you-"
"I've got to send a message of who's really in charge of things now."
"Okay, you do that, but… did you not see this?" Valentino says before picking up the monitor that had Ash with the group. "They've got a living hum-"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever." Vox says, not even bothering to turn and look at the screen as he walks out, leaving the other demon alone in the room.
Valentino sighed before looking back at the screen. "So, the princessa has a mortal soul with her. Hmm…" He says before looking closer, then smiling widely. "He looks pretty delectable." He says while licking his lips.
(Back with the crew)
Ash and Pikachu were in the shower of one of the hotel rooms. The Pokemon Trainer was scrubbing extra hard, still being disgusted by the fact that he was covered in living egg fluid. The smell was bad enough, to know that he was just covered in literal blood even if the one whose he was covered in was still alive made it even worse. Was it traumatizing enough for him not to get over it? No, but still.
"This is…" He says to himself before sighing. "I hope this doesn't keep happening."
After rinsing himself off, he leaned his back against the wall, leaning down as the water continued to run down his body. A full day hasn't even passed and so much happened. First, his vision of angels and demons had shattered after meeting literally an angel who acted more evil than an actual demon. Second was that they moved up the date of this 'extermination' out of spite.
What was he supposed to do? If angels were this spiteful and unreasonable, a fight was sure to come their way. While he has faced some people who would go as far as to cause destruction, these guys were gonna just outright resort to murder.
"Pika." He heard and looked down at his Pokemon who was done cleaning.
"Sorry, Pikachu. Just thinking." Ash says before turning off the shower and they step out. "Hey, Pikachu, do you think that there are angels in this world that are reasonable?" He asked while drying his hair off.
"Pi?... Pi… Pikachu."
"Yeah, I know Adam and those guys are horrible, but… they can't all be bad, right?"
"Pika, pi."
"Well, of course, there are bad demons down here, but there are good ones too. Like Charlie and Vaggie, they're good people and if there's some good up here, maybe it's the same in Heaven… hopefully." Ash says before taking a towel and wrapping it around his waist before leaving into the bedroom and stopping and looking around. "Oh, yeah, I didn't bring spare clothes. What now?"
"Hey, Ash, your clothes are clean. Finally got the stench out." Vaggie says while walking in and placing the clothes on the bed. "Your backpack is gonna take a while, so when you get out-" She says before turning and stopping with her eye widening as she stares at him red-faced.
"Hey Vaggie, you forgot his… hat…" Charlie says while walking in before stopping and gawking with wide eyes and red on her face as well.
Still glistening from the water they saw that he had a full six-pack. Ash saw the two staring, the princess dropping his hat.
"Uh… hi. Already out… is there something you need?" He asked, a bit embarrassed.
"Y-yeah, uh… w-we were… gonna head out and look for… people who might wanna join the hotel and… were wondering if… you'd like to come… with." Charlie says, trying and failing to pry her eyes away from him.
"Yeah, I'll come along. Just… give me a second to get change, okay?"
"Okay, okay, sure, sure… uh, meet us downstairs… c-come on, Vaggie." She then takes the other girl by the arm and drags her out of the room.
Afterward, Ash sighed while pinching his forehead. "I am so glad I put a towel on."
(Later)
Charlie sat on one of the couches, hands over her mouth. Vaggie sitting right next to her with her hands by her sides. Both still had a red tint over their faces and their eyes widened, Angel and Infernape poked each of them, getting no response. They stood up while still looking down with a bit of concern.
"Yeesh, what's up with you two?" Angel asked.
"Stop fucking messing with my fur!" Husk shouted as he had to pull Oshawott off of him once more before looking up and seeing the boy fully dressed coming down with his other Pokemon. "Finally! Can you tell your pet here to stop trying to-" He pulled the water Pokemon off of him again. "To stop fucking touching my fur."
"Oshawott, leave Husk alone." Ash called before walking over to the girls. "So… uh…" He says while looking at the girls before making a farting noise with his mouth. "Ready to go?"
"... Yeah… we're… ready. Come on, Vaggie." Charlie says while patting the other girl's shoulder as they stand up.
Angel looked back and forth, then got a grin on his face. "Ah, what did you see? Huh? What was it?" He asked before Vaggie held her spear to his face, Charlie picking her up and taking her away afterward.
(Sometime later)
"Girls, why do I have to wear this again?" Ash asked while they were walking around the city.
"Because we can't just go walking around with a human so casually." Charlie explained.
"But I was walking around just fine beforehand when we were going to meet with the angels."
"Yeah, but you were moving around constantly, so people probably couldn't see you… or people just thought you were a demon that looked like a human. I don't know."
"Could we at least get a least… ridiculous disguise?"
What he was referring to was the fact that he was wearing one of those glasses with fake eyebrows, a fake nose, and a mustache that kids wear to look like adults.
"Yeah, sorry. I didn't have a proper disguise yet. But it thankfully seems to be working." Charlie explains again.
"Still looks ridiculous." Ash says as Pikachu chuckles a bit in amusement.
"Better that than the alternative." Vaggie says before pulling them all in and lowering her voice. "Look, maybe you don't think it's a big deal, but it is. If these guys find out there's a human here, much less one that can leave Hell without consequences, they might try something horrible for any reason they can. These guys are beyond unpredictable."
"Vaggie, I think I get that by now." Ash says while lifting the disguise before she pulls it back down.
"Okay, well, take this as a reminder that Pentagram City is not to be underestimated." She continued before they heard a gunshot and turned, seeing someone had blown another guy's head off with a shotgun. "Like that for example."
"Yeah, I hate that I am already starting to get used to seeing this." He said back as Pikachu covered his mouth with his face green.
"It's okay. We can do this." Charlie says before pulling out flyers and handing a small stack each to the boy and her girlfriend. "We just need to find new recruits that'll come and join the hotel and escape the extermination. Oh, and make sure you point out that it's especially to help get into Heaven."
"Got it."
"Right, let's get started." Charlie clears her throat. "People of Hell! Please, allow my hotel to be your salvation from this year's second extermination!" She started preaching while walking up and holding out a flyer to the passersby. "If you try hard enough, you can better yourself and-" She kept preaching.
"Is… d-do we have to do this?" Ash asked.
"Just let her do her thing." Vaggie says while going over to join her… not preaching, but trying to hand out flyers.
The boy looked at his Pikachu who looked back, then at the flyers. With a shrug, he went to another part of the sidewalk where everyone was walking, avoiding stepping in a blood puddle then straightened up.
"Hello!" He tried to say, but the first few demons walked past him. "Hey, do you wanna join the Hazbin… Hotel." He says as more just ignore him. "Ugh, anyone? Anything? Does no one really wanna redeem themselves?"
"Fuck you doing here?" He turned and found a pink demon with white hair that had horns, wings, and a tail wearing a… revealing outfit staring down at him.
"Finally got someone's attention." He sighed. "Hey, so, if you haven't heard, the Extermination is gonna be coming early this year."
"Yeah, I get that."
"But you can easily avoid that by simply redeeming yourself, and you can do that at the Hazbin Hotel." He says while holding a flyer out to her.
"Hmm." She took it and read it. "Sounds lame."
"It's not. We just wanna help in any way we can and save you from getting killed."
"Well, if you want me to join this stingy little thing, you're gonna have to make it worth my while."
"We'll take care of any accommodations you wish."
"... Anything?" A smile crossed her face as she leaned down to his level.
"Uh… y-yeah?" He says nervously.
"Okay, then you can start by dropping your pants right now."
"... WHAT!?"
"Yeah, just ya know, whip it out! Then I'll do the rest. ~" She says seductively.
"Wh-wha-"
"PIKACHU!" Pikachu says while zapping the ground.
"WOAH! Hey! Tell your rat to calm down!" The demon says while stepping back.
"GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!" Vaggie says while her spear at the demon.
"Hey, relax. You want me to join your stupid hotel, or not?"
"You're not even a fucking sinner! Get your degenerative ass out of here."
"Pfft." The demon scoffed before looking behind her and seeing Charlie in her demon form glaring at her. "... O-okay, f-fine. Whatever." She says while stepping back before leaning down and handing him a small piece of paper. "Call if you're interested. ~"
"G-got it." Ash says while taking it.
She then strutted away as he shook his head, then looked at the paper, seeing it had a number on it… before Charlie snatched it away and burned it to nothing in her hand, startling him, Pikachu, and Vaggie.
"Uh… so…" He says while holding his stack of flyers up.
"Oh, right. Haha, let's get back to it." Charlie says before seeing her stack was burning on the top before quickly putting them out and giving him a nervous smile. "Come one, let's… go to some other part of the city."
"Okay, woah! Hey, easy there!" Ash says as she took him by the arm and started pulling him away.
Vaggie watched while following behind with a concerned look on her face. First was Charlie's freak-out at Angel for suggesting he tell Ash about sexual things, now it was from some random whore trying to seduce the boy.
'What is going on? She's never this quick to anger, especially to something as measly as that.' She thought to herself.
"Are you okay? I've never seen you freak out like that before." Ash says which caught her attention.
"I'm fine just…" Charlie tells him before looking around and turning away from him. "Really stressed out, you know."
"Yeah, I know why." He says while looking at the tower.
"This has to work. We don't just have to help them, we have to prove to Heaven that people can change. The hotel has to work." She says before she felt his hand on her shoulder and turned to him.
"It will work. Even if it takes… well forever, we will find a way."
"Thanks, Ash." She says, smiling at him.
Vaggie looked back and forth between them before remembering what Angel said before she had fully left the room the first time she comforted Charlie.
"Is it just me or is she getting too attached to that kid already?"
He wasn't wrong to say that, and she was worried he might be right. Ash hadn't nearly been there that long, but from how Charlie was acting around him, she was worried about what might happen later.
After a few more hours of walking and trying to convince people to join the hotel with no success, the princess got frustrated but didn't give up. The sky was starting to turn darker, but they kept going. While walking and putting up posters, Ash slowed down a bit, behind a group of demons watching the TVs in the shop.
Vox: While he hid in radio, we pivoted to video! Now his medium is getting bloody rare!
A TV-headed guy sings while pulling a deer's skull out of the oven. Ash rose a brow along with Pikachu but watched in interest.
Hell's been better since he split! Where's he been, who gives a shit!?
The TV guy sang while putting his arm around two other demons he didn't recognize.
Alastor: Salutations, good to be back on the air!
He heard a familiar voice as he, the audience, and the guy on the TV screen looked around before seeing a radio being placed in a nearby shop's window
(Song: Stayed Gone, Alastor's Half)
Alastor: Yes, I know it's been a while
Since someone with style treated hell to a broadcast
Sinners, rejoice!
Vox: What a dated voice!
Alastor: Instead of a clout-chasin' mediocre video podcast
Vox: Come on!
Ash and his Pokemon chuckled a bit from seeing Alastor roast the guy before Vaggie pulled him away and he remembered what he was supposed to be doing and got back to it.
Alastor: Is Vox insecure? Pursuing allure?
Flitting between this fad and that, is nothin' working?
Vox: Ignore his chirping!
Alastor: Every day, he's got a new format
Vox: You're lookin' at the future, he's the shit that comes before that!
Ash could still hear the back and forth from the speakers on the street which was far more distracting than expected.
Alastor: Is Vox as strong as he purports
Or is it based on his support?
He'd be powerless without the other Vees
Vox: Oh, please!
Alastor: And here's the sugar on the cream
He asked me to join his team
Vox: Hold on!
Alastor: I said no, and now he's pissy, that's the tea
"Ohh, man." Ash says.
"Ash, ignore that. It's not important." Vaggie tells him.
Vox: I'll DEstroy yOu, YOu liTtlE–
Next thing they knew, every light on that street, inside and out suddenly went off, leaving the entire place dark, leaving the group shocked, and causing the citizens to freak out.
"MY FUCKING PHONE!" One of them yelled in fury.
"Uh… what just happened?" Ash asked while taking off his disguise.
"Vox must've blown a fuse." Vaggie explains, getting an eyebrow raised at her. "Overlord. He runs just about every TV station in this place. And also sells a bunch of tech for these guys to use against others."
"Oh."
"He's gonna be out for a bit… along with this place." Charlie says before smiling. "But it's okay. Maybe now that people aren't getting distracted, they'll listen."
"Well… maybe they will-" Ash started to say before he heard some music.
Alastor: Let's begin
He looked at the speaker.
I'm gonna make you wish that I'd stayed gone
Tune on in
When I'm done
Your status quo will know its race is run
He looked at the TVs and they showed red static with what appeared to be two radio dials in the middle of it.
Oh, this will be fun
Then it ended with a deep, dark, and wicked laughter that sent chills down Ash and Pikachu's spines as the TVs turned off. The trainer kept staring at the TVs in shock.
"Ash! Ash!" He jumped and looked at Charlie who was snapping her fingers. "Your disguise!"
"Oh, oh, right!" He says before putting it back on.
"I know Alastor might be… a little freaky and… incredibly shady as fuck, but… thankfully he's on our side… hopefully." Charlie says. "Don't worry about him. He's not gonna hurt you and we won't allow him to if he tries."
"And if he wants to stay in the hotel." Vaggie says.
"Um… g-got it, again." Ash says while scratching the back of his head.
(Meanwhile with the Vees)
So, the three Vees were gathered around a table with a view of sharks swimming behind glass.
"We have a problem." Vox started. "Alastor is getting close to Little Princess Morningstar. So our main concern now is ensuring no deal is made between Lucifer's BRAT!" He yelled while slamming his fist on the table. "And that smiling freak."
"Well, how exactly are we supposed to stop it?" Velvette asked, still on her phone.
"Put something inside them." Valentino says while squirting glue onto his gun. "That's how I get the bitches to behave."
"Well, maybe someone on the inside isn't such a bad idea." Vox says. "Do you think Angel would?"
"That lanky prick won't even return my calls. Probably is fucking with that human over there or something."
"Yeah, yeah, I don't care about-Wait." Vox paused with a spark in his head before looking at the other Vee. "What did you say?"
"He won't return my calls."
"After that!"
"He's probably fucking the human they got there?"
Vox's face then dropped. "Okay, what the fuck are you talking about?"
"What, you didn't see it? There was a human with them."
"Wha.."
Vox then quickly snapped his finger as a monitor came down from the ceiling and zapped over to it, playing the footage he had. It zoomed in on the group, Alastor unable to be seen as it showed Ash with them.
"Fucking what?" Velvette says while looking dumbfounded.
"They've got a human working with them now?" Vox says with a furrowed brow.
"He was literally right there. He stands out like a fleshlight in a dildo stack. You can't miss it." Valentino says.
"I love me a man with a giant… tool. ~" It showed Angel flirting with one of Alastor's men.
"... I do not wanna even know what he means by that." Ash says uncomfortably while wringing egg out his jacket.
"He doesn't fucking know what that means!? That lanky fucker looked at that guy's dick when saying that! It's not fucking rocket science!" Valentino says in annoyance before scoffing.
"Okay, so Morningstar has a human with her. Big fucking whoop." Vox says as the monitor goes back into the ceiling. "She probably just got her daddy to bring one down here for… whatever reason."
"You're not worried about Alastor making a deal with the human?" Velvette asked.
"It's a fucking powerless mortal human. What's it gonna do against us? It's not gonna get us anywhere."
"Okay, fair point."
"Back to the matter at hand." The TV head says while adjusting his bowtie. "We need someone who Little Miss Bleeding Heart would take in."
"Someone pathetic, desperate, with no direct ties to us." Velvette says as the TV head goes over to the tank glass.
"I employ every down-on-their-luck loser this side of Hell. Who the fuck is left?" Valentino asked.
Vox only chuckled as he turned around. "I think I have just the one."
(Hotel-Can you make these chapters a little shorter, mate?)
AshFan: Bruh!
(I'm just saying)
AshFan: Please just do your job! Stop talking.
TaiKetch'em: Wait, your cutaway guy talks to you? Mine never wants to talk to me.
So, Ash, Pikachu, Charlie, and Vaggie came back, Angel on the couch with Heracross drinking honey. Charlie immediately faceplanted on the other couch while groaning in exhaustion.
"So, how'd it go?" Angel asked.
"Not a single new recruit." Vaggie says.
"Unfortunately she's right." Ash says while taking off the disguise.
"Yeah, well, who would wanna use their last days not fucking and fighting?" Angel asked before there was suddenly a pounding at the door.
"Well, maybe that's our luck." Ash says about to head for it.
"No, no! I'll get it." Vaggie says while stopping him before going for the door.
Seeing nothing more to do, he looked around. Infernape was on one of the other couches with Oshawott, Razzle, and Dazzle snoring in his lap, Tauros snoring by his feet. Gible and Keekee were getting pets from Niffty. He looked at Pikachu who looked worried before looking at Charlie who was still lying on the couch.
"Hey, so, today still wasn't the best, but…" Ash says while kneeling to her level. "We can still bounce back from this."
"Thank you, Ash, but…" She says muffled before lifting her face. "I don't know if this is gonna work. Just… go back home whenever you're ready."
He wasn't bothered and only smiled. "Hey, maybe we don't have a full year, but we still have time. Now like I've been saying…" He then reached out and took her hand in his before placing his other hand on top. "Let's not let go of hope just yet."
Charlie looked at him before nervously chuckling and taking her hand back. "At the risk of sounding obvious, you don't belong down here."
He laughed back at her as Pikachu jumped off his shoulder and rubbed against the princess' cheek to which she giggled and gave him some complementary scratches. The moment was over when they heard a sudden yelp from the front door and instantly rose to see what it was.
"What are you doing here!?" Vaggie demanded, her spear aimed down.
"Vaggie, what's wrong? Oh…" Ash says before stopping as he sees the snake guy from earlier. "Never mind."
"No! No! I come in peace." Pentious says before squinting a bit. "And I think I've been hit a little too hard, 'cause I think I'm seeing a little human, right now."
"Wha…" Ash says before patting his face. "Oh shoot."
"What did we talk about with that disguise?" Vaggie says.
"It's okay. It's… nothing to worry about." Charlie says while walking over with Pikachu on her shoulder. "Hello again."
"Wait, you're actually a human." Pentious says as the boy looks at him, then slowly nods. "My word. So long of not seeing one. This is… incredible."
"Back up!" Vaggie says.
"Wait! I'm not here for a fight!" Pentious pleaded before he was let up. "I uhh… I heard that you're helping people. People who want… to be better?" He says while donning a nervous smile.
Charlie gasped before practically running over to him and grasping his hands. "You heard right! Welcome to our home of healing." She then started leading him to the entrance. "Our resort of restoration. Our-"
"Are you fucking nuts!?" Angel says, stopping her at the door. "This chump was trying to kill us like, six hours ago, and now you wanna invite him in to live with us?"
"Absolutely!" Charlie says as she straightened up. "This place is about seconds chances and who deserves a second chance more than this, slithery… slippery… special little man?"
"Aren't you supposed to protect this place? Both of yas?" Angel asked, referring to the boy and the other girl out there.
Before either of them could say anything, Charlie gave them the biggest and most fucking adorable puppy eyes ever in this world.
AshFan: Tai, what're you doing? Where are you going?
TaiKetch'em: I'm going to the bank.
AshFan: …Why?
TaiKetch'em: To make a withdrawal for a project.
AshFan: What project? How much?
TaiKetch'em: Not much, just 50,000.
AshFan: 50,0-... OHHHHH NO! Get your ass back here! I won't let you ruin yourself!
Unable to fight it, Vaggie sighed before walking over to her. "I… guess he's not much of a threat without the war machine." She says as Pentious brightened up. "Or even with the war machine." Pentious' face droops.
"I mean, he's willing to give it a shot so…" Ash thought for a second. "Why not?"
"OH! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!" Charlie says while giving them both a big hug before dropping them back down. "Sir Pentious, welcome to the Hazbin Hotel!"
TaiKetch'em: GET OFF ME! I NEED IT!
AshFan: No you don't!
"Oh, no darling, thank you!" Pentious says as they go inside. "You won't regret this."
"I give you a week, tops." Angel says while also going inside.
"So, this is the bar, and the bartender." Charlie says while Husk looks grouchy as always. "This is the curtain, and this is the new wall after you broke the last one, heh, and oh this is-" She was stopped by Vaggie.
"Babe, you don't have to show him every detail." She explains.
"Sorry, I'm just so excited to have our first real guest!" Charlie says as the snake guy starts meandering.
"Uh, what the hell am I then?" Angel asked, offended.
"Well, you're an important part of our family here, Angel. But you um…" She trailed off.
"Constantly make us look bad, sexually harass the staff-" Vaggie started listing.
"And my Pokemon." Ash piped in.
"And have never once tried to improve?"
"What they mean is, it's just nice to have someone interested for once." Charlie says.
Pentious looked around the parlor, Razzle, Dazzle, Oshawott, and Tauros starting to wake up. Infernape was giving him a stare as if daring him to try something and Heracross… stared into his soul. He nervously pulled on his collar when he saw them before he was patted on the back.
"Over here, we have our maid, Niffty." Charlie says as Keekee hisses before running off.
"*Gasp* The bad boy is back!" Niffty says before running up and climbing up on Pentious's chest. "NEVER LEAVE ME AGAIN."
"We're about eighty percent sure she's harmless." Charlie says, looking concerned as Infernape goes over and pulls her off. "And over here, we have-OH!" The princess stopped at the stairs, seeing the Radio Demon appear in front of her. "Uh, Alastor, our gracious Facility Manager. You've met our new guest, Sir Pentious… heh heh."
"Ah, yes. You're the one who ruined my coat." He says all cheerful before turning menacing. "I definitely remember you now." His tone frightened the snake man.
"Hey, hey, calm down now." Ash says while getting between them as Pikachu jumps on his shoulder.
"Actually, this is a great time for the first lesson: 'How to apologize'." Charlie started while pushing Pentious forward. "The first step to becoming a better person is to admit when you are wrong, so why don't you give it a try?"
"Yes, um…" Pentious says nervously. "Mr. um, Radio Demon, sir, please forgive me for attacking you and ruining your very lovely coat." He then took out the piece he ripped off. "Here."
"Oh." Alastor says while taking the piece. "Not many people have been able to take even this much off me… it must've meant quite a lot to you."
Then right in front of them, he set it ablaze. Then he dropped it, letting the ashes fall into the carpet, all while still having a smug smile on his face.
"... It's… fine… r-really, it wasn't… much." Pentious says, trying not to look hurt.
"How about we get started on some activities for the day?" Charlie says, trying to brighten up the mood.
TaiKetch'em: *Muffled screams*
AshFan: Just calm down man. I need you to think about what this'll do to you-Why are you guys focusing on us? Get back to the sto-
(Later)
At the parlor, Charlie had Vaggie, Angel, Pentious, and Ash sit in a circle while standing up.
"Now, with a new resident, I think it's important we all get to know each other. So, we are going to play a little game. Everyone follow me." She says while referring to herself. "My name is Charlie. *Clap, clap* I like to sing. *Clap, clap* And when we get to know each other, it's the greatest thing. *Clap, clap*"
She then gestured to the boy who looked surprised, looking around for a second before looking back. "Uh… my name is Ash. *Clap, clap* I like… Pikachu. *Clap, clap* Because… he's the greatest friend I ever knew. *Clap, clap*" He finishes before Pikachu rubbed against him.
Charlie smiled brightly before gesturing to Pentious. "... My name's Sir Pentious. *Clap, clap* I like to build. *Clap, clap* And despite my stupid Egg Bois, I think I'm very skilled. *Clap, clap*" He then gestured to Angel.
He looked up at them from his phone. "This is stupid."
"This is not stupid! *Clap, clap* It's just a game. *Clap, clap* Sir Pentious did it well, so please try to do the same! *Clap, clap*" Charlie says, trying to brighten the mood again.
"... I am too sober for this." Angel tells her.
"Well get used to it and learn how to play. This is gonna be your WHOLE day! *Clap, clap*" Vaggie then says mockingly.
AshFan: Okay, this next scene should hopefully dissuade you of doing whatever you're thinking of-STOP LOOKING OVER HERE!
(Later)
"Oh…" Angel says, dressed in a trench coat and fedora, reading a script in front of Sir Pentious who was dressed in a sailor outfit, licking a large lollipop. "I am… a very bad man on the streets who never got enough hugs. Where's an innocent kid I can sell crack to?" He finishes before scoffing. "Wow, who wrote this?"
"It's great right?" Charlie asked as he gave her the 'look'. "Keep going."
"Hey, you." Angel says while pointing at Pentious.
"Who me?" Pentious says, really playing into his part.
"Yeah, you look like a kid who could use some… devil's dandruff-Oh for fucks's sake!" Angel says in annoyance.
"Not me. I have to go home and study." Pentious continued playing into his part.
While the script was going, Heracross was sitting completely unfazed as Infernape was slowly smacking his head against the bug's shell. Oshawott was clinging to Husk, burying his face in his fluff in an attempt to avoid hearing the script. Gible was obliviously gnawing on Niffty's head who by the way was all smiles, and Ash along with Pikachu were watching with mild cringe on their faces.
We'll save you the rest of the cringe and just skip these next dialogues.
"YES! Bravo! Oh bravo!" Charlie says as she stood up while clapping. "Wow, Pentious! At this rate, you'll be redeemed in no time!"
After she said that, Angel scoffed. "I'm… I'm going to bed." He then walked off.
As he did, Charlie kept congratulating Pentious as he talked happily back to her. Seeing it, Angel glanced back before looking down, and then going upstairs. Ash saw as he disappeared, feeling bad for him, and wondered what happened to him.
"Come with me, I'll get you settled into your room. Since it's a bit late, we can work on customizing it tomorrow." Charlie says before turning to the boy. "Ash, you can go now. We're done for today."
"Actually, I was wondering if I could maybe stay for the night." Ash asked.
"Wait, really?"
"Yeah, I kinda wanted to try out the beds here to see-"
"SAY NO MORE!" Charlie says while grabbing his hand. "Come on! Let's go get you two settled in."
"Woah!" Ash jumped as he was being yanked again.
"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Pentious just about howled in pain.
(Later that night)
The hotel was closed down, all the lights were off, and the only thing keeping it from being total darkness was the windows. Angel Dust opened his door and walked out, sighing in annoyance as he started going down the hall. He was stopped when he saw the boy step out from the bathroom in his sleepwear, the two of them staring at each other for a second.
"Uh, hi. Good to see you." Ash says with a hand wave.
"Hey…" Angel says while looking away. The boy opened his mouth to say something. "I'm not in the mood alright. Already had to put up with enough of your guys' shit today. I can still feel your fire monkey's fist on my cheek." He says while walking past him. "I'm just going to get a drink."
"You know, you can talk to us if something's wrong." Ash says, causing the demon to stop and turn to him.
"What?"
"Ya know, you don't have to keep it in. If you need someone to talk to, we're here for you."
"Oh yeah, yeah, talk it out. Why don't talk with tea and lollipops? That's how things work in your world, right?" Angel says snidely. "You wouldn't get it. Cause where you come from, no one has problems. It's all sunshine and rainbows and all that shit. Well, I don't need anyone to fucking talk to especially not a mortal who hasn't gone through or seen half the shit in this place." He says before he started to leave.
"It's really not all sunshine and rainbows you know." Ash says, making him stop again. "And there are problems in my world too and I've seen some pretty horrible stuff that I can't forget or even unsee." He continued. "You may not act like it, but I know you care about this place. No matter what, I'm gonna help out in any way I can to make sure Charlie succeeds in helping you out of here and into Heaven."
Angel's face softened for a moment before sighed and waved him off, continuing down the hall. Ash watched and shook his head before he started walking down to his room. He could see through Angel easily, but he decided not to continue in worry of provoking him into possibly something bad.
He reached his room and opened the door. "Hey, Pikachu-" He stopped when he heard moaning. "OH SHOOT!" He quickly slammed the door. "I'M SORRY!" He yelled through the door, huffing a bit.
"It's… it's fine, Ash." Charlie's voice came from the other side before he heard the ruffling of clothes.
He stepped back and leaned against the wall across from them, sliding down it before covering his bright red face. "Oh…" He groaned to himself for forgetting where his room was.
He stood up and went to another door, seeing his Pokeballs on the nightstand, Pikachu bouncing on the bed happily, stopping when his trainer walked in. Then he noticed the red face.
"Hey, Pikachu." He says. "Think I'm ready to drop for the night."
Before the boy could fully close the door, he heard a sudden bang from downstairs, catching his attention.
"Get your aggressively average body OFF OF ME!" Pentious yell echoed through the hall.
Ash and Pikachu made a mad dash outside. Hearing another bang in the library, they ran in and saw Angel pinning Pentious to the ground.
"Angel! Stop!" The boy yelled while pulling him away. "What are you doing!?" He yelled before helping the snake up.
"*Yawn* What's going on?" Charlie says as she enters with Vaggie in their sleepwear.
"That motherfucker is a traitor." Angel says while drunkenly pointing at Pentious.
"Preposterous! I would never!" Pentious says while going over to the two at the entrance. "You are my best friends!" He then says while hugging them before a whole arsenal of gadgets suddenly falls out of his suit, crashing to the ground. "Uh…" He says while looking at them before pulling back. "This… this isn't…"
"Yeah, you wanna explain this too?" Angel then says while pulling back the books, revealing a poorly placed camera.
Seeing this, Ash was surprised before looking back at the snake who looked worried.
"AH! AH! ABORT! ABORT! SOS!" Pentious freaked out and went to the window trying to pry it open. "Agent Pentious in need of assistance!" He says at his wristwatch.
"Wait, Pentious? You were caught?" Ash went up to him and saw it was the TV guy who was on the watch. "It hasn't even been a day!"
"That guy?" The boy muttered under his breath.
"PLEASE! You've got to get me out of here!" Pentious begged.
"I can't believe we thought you could handle something THIS simple. Do us a favor, if they don't kill you, DO IT YOURSELF YOU MISERABLE FAILURE!" Vox says before the connection cuts off.
Pentious stared at it for a moment, tears welling up in his eyes as he turned to the crew. They were able to see the pain in his eyes as he slithered to the center of the room before lying down, curled up.
"Just… make it quick I guess." He says, sniffling. "Not that I deserve it."
"Gladly." Vaggie says while taking out her spear.
"No." Ash says while stopping her. "We don't have to do this."
"Ash, this isn't the time."
"Vaggie, wait." Charlie says, also stopping her. "Pentious." She then got to his level and held her hand out as he looked at her in surprise.
AshFan: And this is the part where we insert the song: It Starts with Sorry. Because Ash will have no part in this song whatsoever.
TaiKetch'em: *Muffled screams*
AshFan: Get over yourself already!
The song ended, leaving Ash feeling amazed as he saw Pentious smile happily. Such a lovely moment he was happy to stay by and see-
"I hated that song!" They turned and saw Niffty in the doorway looking upset. "Why are you so lame!?" She whined before kicking one of the eyes on the snake's tail, causing him to curl up in pain as she left. "Not a bad boy."
Pentious rubbed his tail before he saw a hand being held out and looked up, seeing it was Ash. "Hey, don't worry." He says while helping him up.
"You're not mad either." The snake man asked.
"No, like Charlie said, everyone deserves a second chance…" Ash rose a brow for a second. "Well, I guess third chance? But that's not the point. The point is, as long as you're willing to change… for real this time, you can stay here."
Pentious sniffed before smiling. "Great first day everyone." Charlie says while patting the snake on the back. "Come on, let's get some rest." She then says as everyone begins to leave while the boy stays back.
Angel looked at him in disbelief before rolling his eyes and leaving as well. Ash looked at Pikachu who patted him on the face, getting a scratch in return before they left as well, not noticing a familiar face appear from the shadows and pick up the watch.
"WHAT!?" Vox yelled as he came through before looking worried when seeing a familiar face.
"You'll have to try harder than that, old pal!" Alastor says before crushing the watch.
Vox's screams of anger roared as the Radio Demon dropped the watch in pieces before laughing to himself as he left the room as well. Disappearing within the shadows.
To be continued…
AshFan: It's done! It's finally over! Oh god, we really should made these shorter.
TaiKetch'em: *Muffled screams*
AshFan: Anyway, thank you for reading, we got… a problem to deal with at the moment, so… see you next time.
