In Hell, Hazbin Hotel

Charlie looked around the room seeing the faces of Vaggie, Alastor, Angel Dust, Cherri Bomb, Sir Pentious, Husker, and Nifty. Charlie cleared her throat "Thank you all for coming, I have called you all her to discuss an important matter." Angel Dust looked rather bored, remarking "It better be important, I am way too hung over right now to be up this early." Vaggie glared at the pornstar with a look that promised evisceration if he did not shut up.

Charlie took a deep breath "Vaggie and I met with the commander of the angel armies. Adam and his Lieutenant Lute have promised us a 2 year period without an extermination. At first we thought it was merely a cruel joke to get our hopes up, but after listening to Lute I felt they were being genuine. They want to help us redeem these souls. We have to work hard these next two years to prove this works and we are worth helping."

Just as Charlie is wrapping up her speech a garbled voice is coming from Vaggie's pocket. Only Vaggie can understand it as it is a language only used by exorcists. It's telling her she has an incoming call. "Charlie, we are getting a call right now from an angel." Vaggie goes into an empty hallway with Charlie following along.

The others pay no mind to the interrupted meeting and start various ridiculous conversations. Alastor summons his shadowy specter and points to the hallway. Understanding its master's orders it quickly follows the two to the hallway keeping to the dark. Vaggie picks it up after she sees it's from Lute.

Lute's voice emits from the tiny speaker "Vaggie is that you, are you there?" Vaggie clicks the talk button "I'm here Lute what was so important you had to use that garbled language?" "Are you alone?" Lute asked. "No, Charlie is here as well. Whatever you have to tell me, Charlie can hear it too." Vaggie replied.

Lute smiles before continuing "Well to start off we were almost executed yesterday." Before she can continue Charlie blurts out "Ohmygosh are you hurt, what happened?" Lute sighed and said "Not to worry Princess we are fine. One of the exorcist's tried to stage a coup d'etat. The 'execution squad couldn't do it. Then a Seraphim named Emily flew down and freed us. She explained that the botched trial and our attempted execution was all planned by the same person and you two have already met her. Sera wants to erase all the souls in hell to protect her perfect afterlife. She holds great malice toward your subjects Princess. She will not stop until she succeeds or she dies. The reason I am telling you this is to warn you. She is trying to gather support in Heaven while Emily is doing the same. Worst case scenario we are looking at a civil war in Heaven. We need you to try and redeem a soul as fast as you can. Maybe that will convince some of Heaven this is a worthy endeavor. Regardless, you should increase security just in case."

Charlie smiled saying "Thank you Lute, you too Adam." knowing the angel was almost always by her side. "Worst case scenario we have our own trump card if you will. Alastor or as you know him 'The Radio Demon' is here and will protect all of us. His Eldritch power will crush the exorcists if it comes to that. I appreciate the warning, we won't let you down, you have my word as a Princess of Hell. Stay safe and best of luck on your end."

Charlie clicked off the communicator and gave an exasperated sigh. Vaggie just smiles at her love and says "Out of the frying pan and into the fire." Charlie nods her hand and they walk back up the hall as Alastor's shadow sinks into the wall before returning to whisper in his ear. "My my this does seem intriguing, thank you as always my Shadow. Sounds like I will be entertained quite soon, this should be a blast. With this display I can remind all the other disrespectful souls, why you don't fuck with 'The Radio Demon'. You might just peak my interest after all Princess."

Turning to his shadow Alastor instructs it to leave a copy of itself behind so it can alway know Charlie's next move.

Exorcist Training Ground

Adam and Lute called for all exorcists to report to the training ground. They were trying to find the traitor Dahlia. After finding her Adam flew into the air and was broadcasting his voice "I am sure you have all heard the rumors by now. That Lute and I Were almost executed for betraying the Angels. This is a lie. We went to Hell for a meeting with Charlie Magne" Before he could continue Dahlia called out asking "You mean the brat of the fallen?" Taking deep breaths Adam cleared his throat and said "She is known by many names but the point is she believes she can redeem souls, so she can send them to Heaven."

Dahlia sneered "Just because a little girl has a pipe dream doesn't mean it will work. Did all of you forget Hell is forever whether you like it or not, had their chance to behave better now they boil in a pot. The rules are black and white, there's no use in trying to fight em. They're burning for their lives until we kill them again. Just try to relax man, you're wasting your breath. Did I hear you imply that they don't deserve death? Are they winners, are they sinners because it's cut and dry. Fair is fair, an eye for an eye."

Adam sighed before looking and seeing about 80 percent agreeing with Dahlia "The problem with an eye for eye is that everybody ends up blind. We need to set aside our anger and start trying to help these souls. You can't let anger and malice control you, believe me I know that feeling well. I won't force anyone to make any choices. If we can redeem these souls we can stop erasing souls. We don't have to send them to Oblivion. I ask that you give this much thought and give me your decisions tomorrow. If you hold too much hate and malice for the demons I will understand, but if you are ready to give this redemption idea a shot come see me or Lute. Thank you

Review: I ask that all reviews be constructive criticism with suggestions on how to improve my story and writing overall. If you have nothing constructive or nice to say please do not leave a review at all. Don't like the story, don't read it. I know that many people loved the characters created by Vivienne "VivziePop" Medrano exactly as they were but I wanted to write a story and put my own little twist on it. I also saw a disturbing lack of substantial Adam/Lute stories so I wanted to try and rectify that. I plan to post a new chapter about once a week. While this story is going on, I plan to write an Alastor/Charlie one as well (at least at some point down the line). Best wishes all and hope you enjoy :)
