Hazbin Hotel: Hellish Misfits

Chapter 11: Halloween Party Pt2: Sparks

That Time Before the Portal
Charlie's Room

The Princes of Hell was scrummaging through her closet to find an outfit for her traversing into the Human Realm. She had confronted James on it and was asked by him if she was going with her hotel uniform. She sheepishly said she was gonna have an outfit made out, and then bolted to her room. Now she was scrummaging through her vast closet to find anything. She cursed herself politely on why she had her mom get her so many outfits. Though help came in, as Vaggie walked right on, though a bit shaken up from Lydia's threat to her. Keekee bolted from the bed to rush to her, nuzzling her around her ankles to want her to pick her up.

"I just can't find it," Charlie mumbled to herself, as she looked frantic while pulling one outfit from another, "Dangit, none of these scream Human Realm." She kept looking at one outfit and another, mumbling in frustration at all this.

Vaggie blinked petting Keekee and asked Charlie, "Everything okay?"

Charlie quickly stopped as she went wide eye, "Vaggie!" She suddenly rushed to her bf, and asked, in a frantic tone, "I need your help! This might be a matter of life and death at this point, and you are right now, literally, the only one I can turn to!"

"What? Is someone trying to kidnap you? Assassinate you? hold you hostage? Blackmail?" She asked pulling out her spear.

"Worse," Charlie looked frantic... and then held up two outfits, as she said, "I have no idea what to wear when we go to the Human Realm!"

Vaggie blinked, "huh?" Vaggie put her spear away and then asked, calmly, "Start over, from the beginning, slowly."

Charlie sighed as she sat on the bed, and explained, "So I was excited about going to the Human Realm, I went to talk to someone. I bumped into James and despite the situation, I was happy to make them happy. Everyone in the hotel. But James asked me what I was going to wear when we go there." She then groaned, as she groaned in defeat, "But I don't have anything for this!" She flailed her limbs around, as she groaned, "This is so haaaaard!" She finally sat up, as Vaggie walked over, as she asked, "What am I going to do?"

"What's wrong with your usual outfit? I mean it's a Halloween Party, not the Blood Moon Ball."

"I know, but for this, I wanted to relax a bit," Charlie said, as she shrugged, smiling, "I wanna look my best for my friends."

Vaggie smiles, shaking her head before saying, placing a hand on her shoulder, "Charlie, you look your best every day. Just go with how you feel."

Charlie blinked at that, taking it into consideration, and then smiled, "How I feel." She gaped, as she smiled, "That's it!" She then rushed to the closet, "I know exactly what to wear now!"

"Just remember, nothing to fancy, they stopped that a hundred years ago." Vaggie called.

Charlie laughed, "Don't worry. This is just as plain but perfect as the day I wore it."

Meanwhile
Lydia's Room

At the moment, Lydia was freaking out, as she was rocking on her bed, frantic about what had just transpired. She had outright threatened Vaggie. Though it was mean to defend James, she didn't think this would happen. She couldn't even understand why it happened like that. She just wanted to talk to the one-eyed Moth-demon, not flat out assault her like a jealous girlfriend.

"Ugh, what have I done," Lydia groaned, as she muffled herself in a pillow.

She heard knocking? scratching? she doesn't know but she heard something.

She got out of bed and walked over to the door. She then gently reached the doorknob and then open the door see who was behind it.

She would see Niffty there smiling, "Hi there!" Waving excitedly.

Lydia blinked at this, and she gently waved to her, "Oh. Hi there, Niffty." Looking a bit nervous, as she knew Niffty was a rather unpredictable person, she half-smirk, asking, "Um… what…"

"I heard about what you said to Vaggie." She said before asking in a demented way, "Want me to help kill her for trying to take your man?"

"No!" Lydia said, a mix of frantic and sternness as she waved her hands in a negative, as she said, "No, no killing. I meant that in a way to defend James."

Niffty looked confused on that, as Lydia explained, "On how she threatens James? Niffty blinked, "Huh? Really? Didn't look that way to me." Niffty said entering the room and pulling Lydia to her bed as she went got a chair and hopped on it with a comical boing, "Looked to me like she just wanted to make sure he keeps Charlie safe from any bad boys."

Lydia sighed as she felt worse, grabbing the pillow and smothering her groans as she fell back first in the bed. All with Niffty looking and watching her.

Niffty then said, "You really like Impy, don't you? I mean the big like."

Lydia pulled the pillow off her face and looked to her, nodding, "Yeah. And I don't even know how he feels."

"Yeah, he is a bit dense, isn't he," Niffty agreed kicking her legs innocently.

Lydia sat up and half smirked, "Heh, yeah. He is. I admit that." She sighed, and then asked her, "Did you have any trouble with relationships like this when you were alive?"

Niffty giggled, "I was the kind of girl that was clean, proper, and nice. But despite all the manners I was taught I had one thing. I was attracted to Bad Boys." That innocent smile became lustful, "But it was the sweet city of Paris. What can I do about it?"

Lydia's eyes lit up, and she certainly was grown interest in nifty story, and she asked leaning in, " you were in Paris? The city of lights in love?

"Oui. My hometown." Niffty answered, back to innocent. She then became saddened as she recounted, "Had to hide when those bad men came and attacked Paris. They killed papa and mama in the attack."

Lydia arched an eyebrow, as she asked, "What happened?"

"Men in black came in shooting up the city while marching like a bunch of Geese." Niffty answered, stopping at the memory of what happened and zoned out like she did during the commercial rolling.

Lydia blinked and asked, " World War II?"

Niffty came back after hearing that before nodding, "Yup, that's what a lot of new guys called it, didn't know, didn't care had to do what I had to survive, but I did get back at as many as I could before they left."

She giggled the last part with a demented manner, "Blood for blood."

Lydia arched an eyebrow and asked, "You killed some Nazis? Have to say, I'm not very big on the whole murder thing, but hearing you take down a couple of the slime of humanity. I praise you girl."

Nifty waved it off, "Aw shucks."

She then continued her story, "After badmen left, unckie found me and took me to America where I began to work as a maid to help support, but then when I got enough to go to school I was the belle of the ball." She stood up and twirled a bit like a model, "That's when I met the bad boys on their bikes and fell in love."

Lydia roll on her stomach as she looked up the nifty, kicking her legs up, and smirked, " bet you were quite back then. You know, it's weird, but I don't even know what your human form used to look like." She looked the side and mumbled to herself, " this will be very interesting to learn tonight."

Niffty giggled more, "Can't wait to see how the bad boys are like now." her cheeks flaring up.

Lydia arched an eyebrow, " I don't know, so far I think James might be the only good bad boy we can actually get a hold of. Well, if you can count Clint, of course."

She didn't look nifty, as she asked, curiously, " say, Nifty. What do you think about Clint?"

Niffty shrugs, "Ice-kitty's a good chef, but not bad enough for me."

"Really," Lydia asked. "I figured he'd be your type."

"He's more goofy than bad." She answered, "Besides I don't go after other women's men."

"Ah yeah. Loona," Lydia nodded. She didn't look to nifty, and then asked, "So… Would you like to hang out with me when we go to the human room? You know, check out the sites together, maybe find some bad boys for you to play around with."

Niffty's eye, and mouth, widened so far they threatened to swallow her face before divebombing a tackle-hug at Lydia hugging her, "Sugoi! Girl's night!"

Lydia smiled and hugged her back, "Thanks, Nif." But then asked, "Did we just become friends?"

Niffty nuzzled against her chest, "I told you I like making new friends. You're part of that circle now! Like Alastor, Husky, Mimzy, and Rosie!"

how do you set up if she gently nifty close to her, smiling. This was the first in a lifetime that she ever had a female for a friend. But then she went white eyed, as she looks confused, asking her, " wait. Who is Rosie?"

"Is everyone ready to go," Vaggie asked aloud getting everyone's attention.

"Ready!" Niffty called zooming out with her new BFFAF.

"Coming," Lydia called out as she kept up with nifty.

Dan and Bruce were coming out as they noticed the two. Bruce made a gesture or two as Dan nodded in agreement and asked, "Youse two on the buddy system for life?"

Niffty held onto Lydia's hand while Grinning widely.

Alastor stood there humming to himself but noticed Niffty being rather chummy with Lydia.

Lydia noticed Alastair looking and froze in place. She didn't know much about him and despite him protecting the hotel… she was still scared or nervous around him.

She nervously waved at him, and awkwardly smiled , "Um… hi? Sir?"

He ignored Lydia while asking Niffty, "Niffty, are you excited to go back to Earth?"

"First in a long time, Alastair," nifty smile, and she jumped up and down a bit eager to go to earth. " and I can't wait for lady to show me around where she was before she died."

"Yeah nice try, Nif." Vaggie said, "We're not going anywhere near that place, especially since there might be someone who might recognize her either as she is now or when she comes back and think it's an act of god or worse. Either way would expose us to the humans, and we know how bad that'd be."

Niffty pouted, "Booi."

Vaggie remained still while she waited for the others.

James and his uncle made it as he stopped to see Vaggie, and gulped, waving, "Um... hi?"

She looked himself and the uncle over and asked, "You're seriously taking him along? Charlie doesn't have a stockpile of those glamour charms."

"He insisted on it," James shrugged, though sweat dropped, "Even though at first he insisted he bring his inventions with him."

"Oh, pish posh. I gave up on that since I know full well Earth's not smart enough to understand it," The professor said, as he waved it off, "And besides, I already have a human disguise. Don't any of you know the spell to get one?"

They all looked confused on this, blinking in confusion, as the Professor was flabbergasted with annoyance, "You mean to tell me nobody here ever bothered to learn how to gain human disguises though the magic so amazing, it's indistinguishable from advanced science? Unbelievable."

"Hey, we didn't even know we could go to Earth at Halloween!" Dan shot back, "So don't get snappy at us gramps!"

The Professor shrugged, "I'm just saying, human disguises aren't all that hard to learn if you know the spells."

James then arched an eyebrow, and asked, looking around, "So where's Charlie?"

"Um.. right here, everyone," Charlie's voice spoke up, a bit nervous, as they all turned to see her.

She was now wearing a long white sleeve shirt with black wrists and a black bowtie around the collar, with a black strap dress with the stop stopping above her cleavage, with golden buttons going down to the waist, and the skirt ending below her knees, with white stockings, and black slip on shoes with ribbons around the ankles.

James stared blushing at her outfit, "W-Whoa..."

Vaggie also blushed, as she saw the dress, "Whoa, Charlie..."

Dan whistles before commenting "Damn your highness, you looking fine"

Immediately felt death looming towards him as Vaggie glared menacingly at the dope.

Though it went twice as up, as both Dan and Vaggie felt a wave of menace, as the two looked to see Lydia. Her aura shadowy and wavy out, as Niffty was in awe of it. Lydia's face covered in shadows while her eyes glowed yellow. Though Vaggie could tell it wasn't directed at her. But at him.

Bruce shrugged, as he gave Charlie two thumbs up. Though Clint had to ask, "What's with the change of wardrobe? Just asking out of curiosity."

Charlie became self-conscious, "Well... because of how this is officially my first time in the human world and Halloween party, I felt like this is a good time to wear something... presentable especially if they think it's a costume."

James realized she was being self-conscious, walked up to her and gently took her hands to assure her, "No, no. It's great. I um.." he looked away blushing, feeling awkward of what he did and what he was gonna say next, "I think.. you look amazing... in it."

Charlie blushed, "Th-Thanks James."

She looks at him curiously.

James blinked, as he noticed the curious look on her face, and asked, "is something wrong?"

"NO! Nothing! I just... wasn't sure if you're okay dressing like that." She assured him, "I mean you look great, just..."

"Oh! Um, well..." James shrugged, "It's still all I got."

Though both Vaggie and Lydia were sensing something between the two at this moment. An awkward moment though, which didn't go unnoticed by Alastor, as he teased, "Aww, now you two... look like a couple going on a first casual date."

This though got Vaggie and Lydia flared up in shock, and would now proceed to break it up fast.

Charlie and James were embarrassed by what the Radio demon said while Clint asked, "So you got those magic charms?"

"I've got a few, and a spell for that as well," Charlie said, as she and James pulled away, while looking embarrassed.

She then dug into the pockets and handed some to Angel Dust, Niffty, Dan, Bruce, Clint, Lydia, and James.

"Don't put them on, until we get to our destination though," Charlie advised, as she had her own charm at the ready. "It kinda only works there."

"Well, then pump out the magic spell to get us to Earth." Dan said, anxious to see Earth again.

Bruce shook his head in his friend's choice of words.

Dan glanced back, "What? I'm not a wizard, I don't know the scoosh to say it right."

Charlie shrugged, "Fair enough."

James shook his head at the two, before he asked Charlie, "So... if we're not going to our home, where are we going on Earth?"

Lydia looked to Vaggie, and asked, "Yeah, Vaggie, what's our destination?"

"That's not up to me. but the spell Charlie use." Vaggie answered.

Angel Dust blinked, "What the fuck you talking about?"

"The spell I was taught is complex compared to the portal spell that Uncle Stolas has in his grimoire. It links itself to the very energy of Halloween and randomly chooses a Graveyard to open a portal." Charlie explained as best she could before rubbing the back of her neck, "It's kinda like a magical marry-go-round, you enter it, but you don't know where you get off."

James blinked, as he crossed his arms, and asked, "So it's like a Gatcha Game. We don't know what we get until we step through on this one."

Clint then shrugged, "I just hope we don't get locked in a mausoleum. It would be hard to get out." But then Bruce nudged him and then shrugged, "Oh yeah, it'd be harder to explain if we found ourselves in a mortuary."

Dan then thought on something and asked, "What if by some rando situation, we end up in the graveyard of New Jersey? Where we did die."

"Then that, my pot-smoking delinquent, would be the wildest of coincidences," the Professor stated, looking rather amazed that Dan asked such a serious question.

Charlie took a deep breath and said, "You all may want to give me some space... I haven't done this portal spell in a long time..." She held her hands close to each other, close her eyes to focus.

They all did as she said, but James leaned to Vaggie and asked, "Have you ever seen her do this before?"

They all did as she said, but James leaned to Vaggie and asked, "Have you ever seen her do this before?"

Vaggie just whispered back "No, but I know she is able to do it"

Charlie took a deep breath as she began to gather her energy to be ready for the spell.

Suddenly, her horns grew from her head, as she opened her eyes, to which the sclera had turned red with her pupils and irises were white as she worked to begin the magic of the spell. Suddenly, all around them, a circle of flames snaked around them, as it grew larger and brighter. The power erupting as suddenly, the ring was above them, and sucked them all right in. Then suddenly, what felt like moments, in seconds they crashed on their butts, while Charlie landed on her feet as the spell began to dissipate and ended as the spell finalized with them arriving in the Human Realm.

Charlie looked down before she changed back and let out an exhausted breath, "Whoo... that was intense..."

She blinked looking around, "Guys?"

Everyone groaned, a bit, as they were getting off of the ground, minus Alastor, who seemed unfazed by the travel, and merely flecked off dust from his jacket. Lydia stood up as she stretched out, "That... was new."

Bruce got up, as Dan slid off of him, while Clint creaked his back, "And I thought the portal IMP uses was rough. But do all the portals have that feeling?"

James stood up wobbly, with Vaggie getting up, as he retorted, "I hope not."

Husk groaned, as he shook himself off, "I hope there's a bar nearby. I'm gonna need to drink this nausea off."

Charlie stared, "Husk? But you said you didn't want to come..."

"I didn't, your fucking portal sucked me up like a vacuum" Husk angrily retorts.

"Well, I guess you're stuck with us for the night then," Clint sighed.

Husk looked like he didn't care whatsoever.

James then looked to Charlie and asked, "What now?"

Charlie sighed, "We enjoy the night as much as possible. But once dawn breaks we need to get back to this graveyard at this spot before the portal opens and pulls us into it... causing damage in a person's house or property."

Everyone nodded, as Dan pulled out his phone, "mark this area on the map for the GPS, Nootches."

James and Lydia pulled out their phones and marked it.

Clint marked the spot as well.

Bruce did as well, with two cellphones for some odd reason.

While the Professor pulled up his wrist revealing underneath were three I-watches, to which he marked the spot on all three simultaneously.

Angel does the same with his phone while Alastor, Husk, and Niffty didn't since one doesn't use a cellphone, one doesn't care, and one... probably would've broke it because she wanted to.

Dan then smiled, "Alrighty, I'm gonna find the next bar, and hook up with a girl who can plow'em like they were matin' with a snake."

The guys all looked at him, as Bruce pointed to him, as Dan noticed. He then sighed, "Yeah, I know, I'm an anthro-snake now. That irony's not escapin' me." But he smirked, "But those chicks'll be beggin' to have their minds blown away... Yeah."

"You look more like a Naga than an Anthro." James said, half-lidded

"Whatevs, dude," Dan waved it off, but then smirked, "But the ladies.. they're gonna luv a guy with two trouser snakes that'll get them where they want."

Lydia then arched an eyebrow, and said, "You do know we're not in human disguises, right?"

Clint arched an eyebrow, and asked, "Wouldn't that make it easier since it's Halloween?"

"It'd really be helpful."

Vaggie got in their faces, as she stated, "No. We're putting on human disguises, and that's final."

"So how does that work? I mean, do we have skin suits, or..." James asked, not sure how this works.

"Oh, it's a simple spell one can master. Like so," The Professor said, as he snapped his fingers, as his body had a ring of magic go from his feet to his head, transforming him, as he was now human. He was still in his old man body, but now he was wearing gray sweatpants with blue slip-on shoe slippers, a black turtleneck and lab coat with a turtleneck collar on, and he was Caucasian, bald, with thick blue glasses.

He then struck a heroic pose, as he smiled, "I feel alive again."

James blinked, as did everyone, even the hellborn, as his nephew asked, "Whoa, you had one, Uncle?"

"Why yes. Before I found you were sent to Hell, I already purchased my own," the Professor smirked.

"But you look exactly the same when I last saw you," James pointed out, which Vaggie went a bit irked on that.

Charlie tried to keep the peace and said, "I already had your charms be charged with some magic, should last you for as long as twelve hours as long as you don't do anything extreme."

Though it was too late, as Vaggie stomped forward to the Professor, as she stated, "What did we just tell you? You can't be going around as the old you! Somebody...!"

"Vagatha, you of all people should know that... People are idiots," The professor reasoned with her, as he stated, "Seriously. You see kids these days with their pants dangling below their butts." He then confidently smirked, "Besides, I'm 30 years younger than my previous life." He then lifted his shirt... showing an eight-pack stomach, and massive pecks, "And I have abs and pecks."

Angel just half-smirked as the thumbed in the Professor's direction, "Anybody hearin' me complainin about that beefcake display?"

James shook his head, as he walked over to Charlie, as he held his hand out, "I'll take one of those charms, Charlie."

Charlie gently handed it to him, "Here you go."

She also handed them to Bruce, Dan, Lydia, Vaggie, Angel, Clint, and Niffty.

The charm appeared to look like a pin similar to the hotel's key logo, as James pinned it on the front of his hoodie. Everyone else did theirs, but the charms suddenly activated for James, Dan, Bruce, and Clint. All four looked to each other, and much to everyone's confusion, the four struck martial arts poses, as they said in unison, as they transformed, "HOTEL RANGERS, DUMMY FORCE!"

James's appearance was his old human appearance and attire, only now, he was sporting black jeans and a red and black hoodie, with the left sleeve still hiding his arm, "Fearlessly Leading: Dummy Red!"

Dan's appearance was the same back then, only now his hoodie T-shirt was yellow, as he called out, "Snootchie Boochies, Dummy Yellow!"

Bruce's appearance was the same, only his black trench coat jacket was sporting green trim, as he silently announced himself as Dummy Green.

Clint was the last, as his hoodie was now blue, with a blue belt around his waist, with blue sneakers, as he said, "Furious Fighter, Dummy Blue!"

And all four struck a pose as they called out, "Dummy Force, A-GO!"

Niffty was clapping her hands and smiling at this, while everyone was looking at them in confusion, "What the fuck is that," Husker arched an eyebrow, as he shook his head, "I'm too sober for this."

Vaggie, who was unamused, asked, "What the fuck?"

The boys relaxed a bit, as James then asked, "Um.. you guys ever watch Power Rangers?"

Angel shook his head, "No."

"Genyu Force," Clint asked.

"No," Niffty answered.

"VR Troopers," Dan asked.

"Nope," Charlie shook her head.

"Ninja Turtles," Clint asked.

"Not in your life," Husk answered.

"Sailor Moon," Lydia asked.

"Nope," Niffty asked, now more clueless.

"Beetleborgs," James asked.

"Um... not really, no," Charlie answered.

"Samurai Cyber-Squad," Dan asked.

"Nope," Angel shook his head.

"Kamen Rider!?" James shouted unable to believe this.

"No."

The four looked to each other, and deeply sighed, as they asked, minus Bruce, as they asked in unison, "Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters from Beverly Hills?"

Then everyone lit up as they nodded, "Oh yeah/Definitely/I remember that show a lot. I liked it."

The boys groaned at this, knowing that Hell got the worst shows ever.

Alastor remained silent through the whole exchange, before he spoke up, "As amusing as that way, maybe we should focus on the actual magic words?"

"Exactly," Vaggie said, as she and Charlie dawned their charms on. In which, the two were transformed in a bright flash, as they were now revealed in their human form.

Vaggie was the same in appearance, except now she had a brown eye, while her hair covered her left eye. Her hair was dark brown with her skin was a Hispanic tan olive color.

Charlie's human form was Caucasian, with her hair being a bit more yellowish in blonde, with her rose cheek marks disappeared, and her eyes were now crystal blue.

James was a bit surprised to see them, as he blushed, "Whoa... you guys..."

Charlie blushed as she asked, becoming self-conscious about her appearance, "Is it bad?"

James shook his head, as he said, "No. No, not at all. You both look amazing."

Charlie became beat red hearing that while Vaggie glowered, "Come on, let's go."

Alastor hummed as he was already marching to the exit of the cemetery.

"Alastor," Vaggie stopped him, as she glared at him, telling him silently to change.

He sighed, his grin never fading, as he conceded to it. His glamour activated as he was transformed into a Caucasian man of thirty, brown hair without the ears, brown eyes, and had a soft grin, than his usual Joker smirk.

"There happy?" Alastor asked, before he has some of his antlers showing, "Besides It's Halloween, why go all the way when we can just show a little bit of the old Hallow's Eve spirit!?"

"I thought being in human forms was a kind of getting in the spirit," Lydia said as she changed into her human firm, which was her old self but now had purple eyes.

"Believe what you want, but I decide how I wish to be." Alastor stated before waving off, "Todaloo!" and walked away from the group humming.

James blinked and asked, "He's not... gonna kill anyone... is he?"

"Oh no, no, no, no, no," His uncle assured him, patting him on the back assuring. He then leaned over to Husk and said aloud, "I'm lying to help him be at ease! IS IT WORKING?!"

James, Lydia, and even Clint face-palmed themselves at this scene.

"It was." Husk answered before snarky said, "Before you spilled the fucking beans out loud."

James shook his head, as he walked forward, "I'm just gonna walk through town. Wherever this place is."

Angel arched an eyebrow, "You sure that's a wise idea, Mr. Hothead?"

"I'm not the hothead. it's either Vaggie or Clint," James retorted, as he looked to them both.

Though before Vaggie could say anything, Clint shrugged, as he crossed his arms, nodding, "It's true."

Lydia then would slink over her tail and ears more visible now since, like Alastor said, it was Halloween, so they didn't need to look completely human, and said, "I'll go keep an eye on him..."

Charlie then smiled, "Alright then, I'll go with you..." And almost would have... if not for Vaggie to stop her.

"Hold on Charlie, we're gonna need to go over some ground rules." Vaggie said stopping her blond friend.

But James..." Charlie was about to say, but Vaggie stopped her.

Vaggie held her wrist, "Trust me."

But James stopped, as he turned to look, hearing her, and asked, "Okay then. What are the rules?"

"You know them since you've most likely been to Halloween parties up here, Charlie however hasn't." Vaggie pointed out that all of them remembered who they were with, the princess of hell who was more angelic in her thoughts and actions than anyone else in Hell.

"Not really," James shook his head.

"Nope," Lydia replied.

"We never got invited to parties," Clint replied, as he pointed to himself, Dan, and Bruce.

"But we did voyeur the crap outta them," Dan said, as he looked annoyed, "Always havin' fun with the apple bobbin', the dances, and the orgies..."

Bruce nudged him as he corrected him. Dan nodded, "Oh yeah, that was a frat party. But nah, we never got invited to the parties. We were losers back then."

Vaggie sighed, face smacking herself before she said holding a finger up, "Rule 1: DO NOT say where you're from or give your full name, unless you're like James here who made up a last name to replace his one."

She then extend another figure, "Rule 2: Just because you look human now doesn't mean you are so be careful with your strength and powers.

"Rule3: Do not, I repeat: Do NOT try anything that would put yourselves or each other in danger." She then turned to Charlie, "Especially you missy, since humans have been doing weird shit every Halloween that you saw in that Bondage dungeon last month.

"On that last part, I can concur," James added to Vaggie, as he looked to Charlie, and said, "If anyone seems to be worshipping Satan with a Goat around, steer clear away from those guys."

"Buncha cultist nutjobs," the Professor huffed.

"That's one of the reasons..." Vaggie admitted before turning back to Charlie, "YOU need to be careful in case someone just wants to fuck you because of how beautiful you look."

Vaggie stopped blushing as she realized what she said before adding, thumb pointing at James, "Given what Sinor Hormones here said about your look."

James then pointed to Vaggie, as he asked, with an arched eyebrow, "Shouldn't that rule go to you too, Vaggie?"

Vaggie narrowed her eye at him, silently reminding him about their talks, before saying, "You know full well that Charlie's my best friend and I don't want any doped up or crack-head man taking advantage of her."

James frowned, as he looked to Vaggie, "The same goes to you and Lydia, and Niffty..." but then looked at the mini-sinner as she was readying a butcher knife, as he shrugged, "never mind."

Angel, carefully took the knife and said, "So are the rules done because we're burning moonlight."

Everyone looked to Vaggie, awaiting for her to say any more.

Vaggie surprised before saying, "I just want Charlie safe..."

"So do I," James said, looking seriously to her.

Vaggie sighs, "Fine."

Angel shook his head as he got in the middle, saying, "Alright, alright, we get it. Both of ya want Charlie safe. Who doesn't here?" He then turned to leave, as he waved it off, "Now if you excuse me, I'm gonna find the next bar and get drunk. maybe even get some Heroin."

Lydia arched an eyebrow, and said, "You do know that's a drug, right?"

"Meh, it barely gets rid of a headache for demons, babe," Angel said as he waved it off, and walked off, "See ya."

Clint looked and said, 'You know he's gonna try and find some guy to fuck too right?"

Bruce nodded knowing that to be true.

Husk sighed, as he walked off, "I'll keep an eye on him.." and grumbled the rest of the way, saying why he had to do this shit when Vaggie would have.

Vaggie tried, "Huh? Husk, wai-"

But it was too late, and the bartender left as she groaned, "So much for being inconspicuous..."

The trio was out and ready to go, as they made their way out of there, as Lydia shrugged, "And there they go."

James looked at Lydia and the others asking, "Ready?"

Lydia took a deep breath, "Ready."

James would walk with her as they continued even with Charlie walking with the two of them.

Though James looked over, and gently pulled Lydia with him, as he stopped, as Charlie got in front. Charlie was a bit confused on this, as the boy was keeping his distance from her. Though internally, he was dreading Vaggie if he got any closer than this.

While James was focusing on his own problems Lydia was blushing at being this close to James.

The Professor then asked, "So where are we going exactly? You never said."

"Idk take a walk see if any parties are interesting." James said, never actually been to a Halloween party outside of some from the old neighborhood which were kiddie sort of parties or planned by the community.

"Charlie," Lydia spoke up as Vaggie walked up front, "Do you guys even know where to party at or know of any parties at all?"

"I'm afraid that I don't know about any parties are int his town, since we arrived here at random." Charlie reminded.

Unbeknownst to them, some guys in costumes saw the group and glancing at each other smirked.

"Then where the heck are we going," Clint asked. Realizing it was futile, he groaned, "Ugh, this is just like with Vaggie and the commercial. She was too prideful in admitting she didn't have a clue until she and Alastor made a deal."

Charlie blinked at that, as she turned around, "Wait, what?"

Vaggie stopped glaring at Clint furiously. and Clint... can swear he saw a skull where her pupil and iris should've been.

"Yeah, we all tried to insist on helping her," Clint said, but pointed to Vaggie, "But your depth perception-challenged body guard..."

"I thought he was gonna call her cycloptic," Dan whispered to Bruce, who nodded.

"...insisted on doing it herself, even stating she would figure out how to edit it in shop. But news flash: She didn't figure it out," Clint argued. "Until finally, she broke out angrily at Alastor when the camera freaked out when she angrily tried to film him. So yeah, I get she's tough and doesn't like others to do stuff that know more about this stuff."

"This is not the time to..."

"Did you know she pushed me out of the kitchen galley to fix dinner to try and show me up," Clint replied.

Lydia paled as Bruce held his stomach in, as James blinked, "Wait... that nacho dish was..." and paled at Vaggie, as he asked, "You?"

"It wasn't nachos," Vaggie stated.

"Or how about when she insisted on fixin' up the cameras for the vids or rewiring the grid in the hotel," Dan stated. "I was seriously writin' up my afterlife memoirs and then it all went black with no batteries."

Vaggie was fuming at this, but Charlie asked, "But wait, what was this whole thing about a deal?"

"It wasn't serious," Lydia explained. "Alastor agreed to help with the commercial in exchange he never touch another piece of TV technology again."

The murderous feeling emanating from Vaggie, talking about her faults on front of Charlie. But she stopped and exhaled, talking to Charlie, "I just... I didn't want to fail you, at the time I didn't know how else to make the hotel work for you."

"But when he said you made a deal, after telling me not to..." Charlie said, looking worried.

"It wasn't a Soul-fee deal." Vaggie assured her, "Just a simple exchange of words..."

"But still, I was worried when they said 'deal'," Charlie worried.

Vaggie placed her hands around Charlie's, assuring her, "Don't worry, no one is gonna take me away from you, or our friends."

The two guys in costumes exchanged looks and smirked nodding as they approached the group, "Hey there."

"We're on a way to a sick Halloween Party if you ladies wanna come with." He said looking at Charlie and Lydia.

James though, getting the looks he was spotting towards the girls, slid in front of the girls, and said, "That's nice, but I think we could..."

Charlie would interrupt, "Sure I like parties."

But James's face scrunched up like he was trying to say, 'Excuse wha..?' at Charlie, while she was oblivious on this matter, but Lydia looked her arms around him and smiled, "C'mon, James, this is our first Halloween party that didn't include the two of us or family."

"Charlie..." Vaggie began, "I don't know about this."

She smiled to them as she said, urging them, "C'mon, guys. You said it yourself, we don't have any ideas on where there are other parties. And I don't think these guys would hurt a fly."

The two guys look at each other before saying, "We invited you and your pretty feline-wearing friend, but I guess they can come with if you really need them to."

his friend however said, "But only of those three are on their best behavior."

"Who," James asked.

"The trio behind you, plus the two," the other guy said, as he pointed to James and Vaggie, "You two."

James arched an eyebrow, as he pointed to him and Vaggie, and asked, "We're the problem kids?"

"That's what we said," the leading guy said.

"Got a problem with that?" The other guy asked, brow raised.

"I don't, but she might," James said, pointing to an annoyed Vaggie.

Vaggie glared at the two men while Charlie hold her shoulders and asked the two men, "Could you excuse us for a minute."

The two walked over from ear shot, as the guys smirked at the two ladies walking from afar. Though backed off as soon as James got in their faces, silently telling them 'Don't even think or look at them at the moment.' this was one of those times James meant it.

The two muscular, and good looking guys glanced at each other before the burlier one pushed James down on his butt, "But out asswipe."

Vaggie then spoke, "Okay, Charlie. I seriously don't trust these..."

"Vaggie, I get you're being protective, but what's one little party gonna do?" Charlie asked, before looking over, at the two guys, "Besides if I could help change their lives around they won't go to Hell."

He face returned to face Vaggie, just as James was pushed on his butt.

"Um, I'm... not entirely sure you can change a person..." Vaggie said, not certain about this idea.

"Maybe not completely but still." Charlie said, then asked, holding Vaggie's hands in Her's, "Please trust me, okay?"

Vaggie sighed, knowing full well, she could never talk her out of it, and softly smiled, "I trust you, Charlie." But then frowned, as she glared at the two pretty boys, "I just don't trust them alone with you."

"You didn't trust James." Charlie reminded her before walking over and saw James on his but, assuming he tripped and helped him up.

VAggie blushed a little from that, but then shook her head, as she said, "Well... turns out he's not a complete scumbag and is pretty decent."

Vaggie's face almost shrunk at that, as she palm slapped her forehead, groaning, "Ugh, why did I say that about him?"

Charlie smiled seeing this as an improvement

"Well," the leader asked, awaiting an answer

Charlie smiled, "Well be happy to attend your party." The cooler guy goes and offers his arm to Lydia, "Let's get going then."

Lydia backed away and stood next to James, as she blew a raspberry at him.

The trio walked over, as Bruce made a comment to Dan and Clint, as he nodded, "Yeah, Lydia's got way better taste, man."

The second guy was about to smash James in the face, but the leader stopped him just in time before Charlie could see. He whispered to his friend, "Patience, friend. We'll get our chances with them."

The other guy mutters, "I know..."

James then asked, as Lydia was right behind him, "So... what do we call you guys?"

"I'm Jaun. This is Andre." The burly one answered.

"I take it Andre is the smart one," James asked.

Though Charlie stepped up as she got in between, "Be nice, James."

Andre stopped his friend as he joked, "Nice joke there Jamie."

He and his friend led the group over to the club and they were met with high quality decorations

James growled as his eyes glowed yellow, but Vaggie grabbed his right hand, making him stop, as he turned to see her ire. But instead of that... it was actually concern for him. This was a bit surprising to him as he never saw her like this at all. "Vaggie," he asked a bit confused to see her like this.

"You need to calm down, Remember the more you exert the more you break the glamour."

James huffed, as he sighed in annoyance, "This guy is starting to grate on my nerves. Badly." He then looked to her as he joked softly, "He could give lessons to you."

"No." Vaggie said, before turning to see how Charlie was at a human Halloween party

Though insanely enough, the party was being held at a frat house which almost consisted of a mansion. Though insanely, the party was wild. There was a couple running outside with skimpy bathing suits, as the guy was chasing after the giggling girl. The pool at the house had bubbles in it, while some kids were jumping in... and bathing suits were being thrown out, much to Charlie's embarrassment. She even went wide eye as she saw a boy and a girl being tar and feathered, only they were having liquid chocolate poured on them... and they wore nothing as a result.

Clint shrugged as he asked, "Is this a Halloween party or a frat party of Porno Theater students?"

"If it is, I'm in line for a lickdown on the girl over there," he smirked, as he looked at a girl being used as a drink waterboard, with a few people licking her belly button as a shot glass.

Juan walked up over to Charlie, almost rubbing elbows, as he asked, smiling, "So, what do ya think?"

Charlie cleared her throat trying to be positive, "I... think it's... very well put together..."

"Wait til you see inside," Juan said, as he gently took Charlie's hand in his, as he led her in, "That's the real party." And opened the door.

And as soon as she and everyone else entered, they were blasted by music beyond comprehension. It was a full blown mosh pit and stadium blazing out pop techno rock music. There were those in costumes or not in costumes partying, having drinks, or just dancing. And man, they were going at it, with the DJ blowing out music like there was no tomorrow. It was a rockin' party to say the least.

Clint nodded, "Killer music."

"It's our happenin' and it's freakin' me out, Yeah," Dan smiled as he was joining in, along with Bruce who waved back to the guys.

James, Lydia, and even Vaggie arched an eyebrow, as James said, "Well, there they go."

Andre looks at Lydia and asked, "Care for a dance pretty kitty?"

Lydia feeling uncomfortable backs up a bit "uh no thanks", feeling slightly creeped out at the way he looks at her.

A random guy showed up at Vaggie, and asked, "Care for a dance, beauty?"

"I think she said no," Vaggie said dryly, pointing at Lydia.

"Actually, I was talking about you," he said, having his eyebrows bouncing.

Vaggie stares angrily at the guys before saying "Sure, ever do the ache aria?, he goes like this!" before she knees the guy between the legs.

The guy yelped in a high pitched voice as he dropped to his knees and cradled his broken family jewels.

A few guys witnessed this in the shadows and knew something had to be done. Otherwise, things would get screwed over. They nodded, as one of them was holding a flask of glowing pink liquid.

One random guy passes by with his hand opened and the guy holding the flask passes it to him before he walks off to the bar.

He would then make his way over while passing it to another guy.

James just stood there, as the others mingled, immediately being left out. Everyone was able to get in on the fun, not even noticing the guy making his way across to his destination. Though James didn't even notice anything, but was slumping at the wall, barely able to interact with anyone, as they were noticing music more than a nobody like him.

"Look like someone is dealing with some serious issues" said a mysterious female voice that was coming mysterious from nowhere

James blinked as he turned to his left to see the source of the voice.

The voice was coming from a female demon who 6'7ft in height, with a small yet well-defined muscular toned body, thin waist, slender hips, firm but soft buttock, long slender legs, arms with small muscle but slender hands, and a surprisingly jumping DD chest; an hourglass figured. Her hair was how a more intense white shade of flames made into a wild mane of actual flaming hair to differentiate itself against her body and went all the way down to her feet. Her outfit consists of a highly revealing and open fur collared long coat, with heart shaped buttons, short shorts that resemble panties with a heart on them, and thigh high boots.

James blinked at her, as he looked around, and back to her, in confusion, as he pointed to himself, "Who? Me?"

She just let out a chuckle as she slowly walked past. "Their no one else here so yeah I'm talking to you" she replied as she laid her back against the wall right next to James

For a sold few minutes they stood there in silence before the mysterious female demon decided enough was enough and said something in James is ear that shocked him "I'm surprised to see another person from hell up here" she said right in James ear

James stared in shock as he looked at the woman next to him, "How... What are you talking about?" Trying to pass himself off as a human.

She just let a small chuckle before making a shushing sound while placing a finger in his lips. "Spoilers" she then got up from the wall and proceeded to walk away heading towards a flight of stairs. "If you want to know how. Then meet me on the roof" she said before disappearing

James blinked, glancing around at everyone else.

James shrugged, as he wanted to know how this girl knew. So, he was about to step out and follow her.

The two boys were doing their best to get the moves on Charlie and Lydia, though the two were doing their best to avoid their advances. Internally, both or either girl were hoping that James would come in and save them.

James has a decision to make, following the woman who knows he's from hell... or help his friends from guys who were better looking and probably have more connections in this frat house than he does...

He sighed, as he quicky ran over to them.

Meanwhile, Jaun smiled at Charlie and asked, "Say, wanna dance?"

Charlie smiled nervously, "Thank you but... we just met... and well... I'm not sure how comfortable I am with how everyone is dancing so..." She paused before she found the right word, "amorous..."

"Amorous, eh," Juan smiled, "Sounds to me like Amour. That's hot."

"Well, actually, Amorous means so close," Charlie replied, as she slowly backed away, "I think I should go see..." and turned to see James, leaving while following a black-haired girl. She looked a bit dejected, as she asked in disbelief, "James?"

Juan walked over to her, seeing the 'boyfriend' walk away, as he walked to her, placing a hand on her shoulder, "Well, he lost interest right away. Maybe instead of dancing, you wanna go someplace quiet? Talk for a while?"

Charlie exhaled, "I think I'm going to the bar..." And walks to said bar to get a drink

Juan smiled, "Cool, I'll join you. I know all the type drinks that you might like."

"Never drank before..." Charlie said disheartened by seeing James leaving.

Though this was not unseen, especially to Vaggie, whom was with the Professor. Mostly because she was keeping an eye out for him from doing something... that would upset the party much.

Though while she saw Charlie walking with Juan to the bar, she noticed James left with someone else. Though the Professor didn't notice it at all.

Vaggie growled, "What is that idiota think he's doing?"

"Who's Idiota," the Professor asked, "They sound goofy with a name like that."

"I'm talking about your nephew." Vaggie spat before looking at Charlie, "He left Charlie all alone with that Pretty boy prick."

"Oh no, Idiota is definitely a girl name" the Professor said "Even though I've never heard of anyone named that, or even heard it before now, it is definitely a girl's name"

The Professor thought on it, as he replied, "But first of which, he's not Idiota, he's James. And second, maybe he felt inferior to said Pretty boy Prick."

"What are you talking about," Vaggie asked, arching an eyebrow.

"Well, one of them is a Princess, and the other is basically the equivalent of a Pauper, who feels he will never even remotely feel he's worth anything," the Professor said, as he shrugged, "But then again, what do I know? I may be a Professor but I'm not the non-existent God who allowed such a travesty and turned what he called Paradise into a Dystopian eternity everyone calls Heaven."

Vaggie mentally felt ticked off at that but said, "Maybe you should try and talk sense to your nephew while I keep Charlie safe."

"Maybe you should talk some sense into him," the Professor pointed out, as he stated, "If you're so judgmental about him, maybe you should smack some sense into him."

"And leave Charlie here alone by herself?" Vaggie asked, glaring at the professor, "OR leave you here to cause an accident that'll send more humans to Hell? Fuck no"

"Vagatha, you of all people know that Charlie is Lucifer's daughter," the Professor said, as he explained to the thick-headed moth she-demon, "She's got more power in her than the Seven have in their pinkies."

"You don't get it. SHE doesn't want to hurt anyone." Vaggie explained to the empty-headed professor.

The professor stays quiet for a few seconds before he suddenly breaks out in laughter. "Phhewww-HAHAHAhahahaha…..oh your serious?"

He said after seeing her deadpan glare at him.

"Oy, then the monarchy is going to go downhill if they take advantage of that," the Professor shook his head, but then sternly looked to VAggie, "But look. I'll keep an eye out for Charlie and inform Lydia and the others. The trio are currently near the snack bar, and Lydia's been avoiding the other guy. You could at least try to be a friend to James and talk to him. After all, you both have a sacred and personal duty."

Vaggie tried to come up with a comeback before she exhaled, "Fine... Only if you just don't try to build a bomb or something dangerous."

She then left to find James.

"Oh please, why would I need a bomb," the Professor said, as he held a jar, "I smuggled some cursed Egyptian fleas. These suckers are the Hell equivalent of itching powder. So potent that it'll make them rip their clothes off just to stop the irritation. Hehehehehehehehe."

He felt a threatening glare looming at him from Vaggie silently threatening to end him if he does that. Before following after James.

Roof Level

James looked around to find where the raven-haired beauty went off to. But as soon as he caught up, she was long gone. And this left the puzzled boy scratching his head in confusion. There were no other exits and no windows on the way up. So how did she disappear from his sight? But that question was put on hold, as he was up there, with the starry black night sky with only the half-moon out. He walked to the ledge and sighed, as he leaned on it with his right leg, and sighed, "Well... I guess I needed a moment to myself."

Suddenly, the door to the stairway was kicked open, as an annoyed Vaggie stood there, "James Dante!"

He then sighed, "Aaaand the peaceful moment is over."

"What the hell are you doing?!" Vaggie snapped marching her way angrily at him, "Leaving Charlie all alone with the Prick downstairs!"

"What do you mean she's alone, Vaggie," he turned to her, annoyed, "She has you."

"Not right now she doesn't! Because I have to make your senile uncle doesn't does something that might expose us OR make things worse in hell!" She snapped back angrily, "Go back down there and keep her safe like I asked you to."

"How about this: Why not have the useless one stay here, and you save her," he advised her.

She grabbed him by the shirt, threats from Lydia be damned, "BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T WANT ME! SHE WANTS YOU!"

But then he pushed her off him, as he stated, "SHE DOESN'T WANT ME AT ALL! SO, LEAVE ME ALONE!"

Vaggie fumed as she got back in his face, "YOU can't see anything past your emo ass to know she does want you!"

"She's a princess! I'm nothing, okay," James retorted, as he jabbed his finger into her collar bone, pushing her back, "I'm less than nothing. On top of all that, I killed 4 Angels the day I was shoved into Hell. The more I'm out of sight and out of mind, the better chance Heaven won't rain down all they got on her just for that screwup." He sighed, as he stopped, and said, "Which is why... um..." He looked slightly away, as he sighed, "I've been giving it some thought on what you said earlier on, and then some."

Vaggie raised a brow, "Which times, before or after you walked in on me?"

He sighed, as he just dropped the bomb rather than stall it, "I'm thinking of leaving the hotel."

Vaggie stared in shock and swore, "Are you out of your fucking mind?!"

"It's the only way," James said sternly to her, "I leave, stay out of sight for Charlie to get the hotel working, and if the Exorcists find out, they'll come solely after me." He then sighed, as he gestured to her and himself, "And this... this whole thing about staying to help her, I could do. But you're right, if Heaven found out, they would send everything they had to go after me. And if Hell finds out, the Overlords, and maybe the Goetia family would come after me to possess me like a weapon."

"If you leave, then she'll be a crying mess for the rest of eternity." Vaggie explained to him, "Why are men always so bullheaded!"

She then mockingly gave some examples, " 'I'm the Dickmaster, obey me!' 'I'm leaving because I rather be alone than actually seeing what good I am around the people who gives shit about me'."

"Get your head out of your ass already and LOOK at how the others, especially Charlie sees you. You telling her before we made our announcement at the news about her hotel made her happy, happiest I've seen her in the past three years. She has so much faith in you and I'm putting my faith in you too." She urged, trying to get him to get out of his self-pity party, "Or you're just going to be alone for the rest of eternity. And I don't have to tell you which is which. Then you really will be the cause of so much suffering to Charlie and Lydia too. Then you and Adam will really be the same."

Vaggie turned and stormed off muttering in Spanish about how stupid and pig-headed James is being because of his self-righteousness going back downstairs after she said her "peace" to the fool.

James sighed, as he felt there might be an answer to that after all.

Meanwhile
Downstairs

The music was pounding and playing hard, as it was Haddaway's What is Love playing. Though there was hardly much of that happening. But a trio of doofuses were determined to do so, as Clint, Bruce, and Dan were jammin' to the music, as the trio's heads were bobbing at the side, with their hips going with the beat. Apparently, the trio had seen the Roxbury gag on SNL and thought it would play out on a macho coolness of sorts. It was made evident it wasn't working when a girl danced to them, and then they surrounded her, pelvis bopping at her like a pinball. A couple of jocks came up and escorted the trio away to cool their heels.

Though at the moment, Lydia was backed into a pillar, surrounded by guys who wanted to hang out with her. And she was getting nervous around them.

"hey kitty. are you a lioness? Because I'm willing to say 'Long live the queen'." One guy said smiling at her

"Back off I walked in with her." the cool guy said glaring at the other guy.

"Well, you know what they say about a tigress who refuses you." Another said looking at her, "You're getting my heart purring. doll."

"Please she's a Panthera at best." A south American guy said, before looking at her, "How about it Chika, wanna dance?"

Lydia was in too much and wasn't able to handle this. It got so bad... that suddenly, a black wave shot from underneath, pushing them all back. She blinked, as she realized that had happened, and so did Vaggie, who was walking in. In fact, they were the only two that noticed.

The Professor, holding a glass, noticed and gave a humm to himself before he tried to sip but instead of hitting his mouth the drink went down to the floor instead, "Oh fuck..."

Lydia blinked, as she was a bit shocked at that, as she gulped, "Eh? Wha... what?"

Vaggie went over and asked, "Are you okay? That aftershock must've been scary..."

Lydia blinked in shock, as she looked to Vaggie, and asked, "What was that? Just what was that?"

Vaggie shrugged, "I'm not sure. That was..."

"Go away, already," Charlie finally shot out, as the two turned to see Charlie trying to push Juan away from her, as she was doing her best to fight back.

Without actually hurting him, but the guy said, "Come on baby, forget about the Dink. I know you want a good time."

"What? Who are you talking about," Charlie said, as she still pushed back, "Who's a Dink?"

"The tiny dick who went after another skirt." He said meaning James, before he said placing his arms around her, "Believe me when a lady goes Jaun, they don't wanna go back."

"I don't wanna go Juan! Seriously," Charlie said.

"In case you forgot, I'm Jaun, gold-star member of this place and a big time stud for babes in this town. Any would kill to be with me." Jaun said, not getting what she's saying.

"Not me," Charlie said backing away, as she stated, "I know a guy who's way more... No! Ten times better than you. He listens when he doesn't have to, he thinks about others feelings than his own, but he's always concern what others think about him, which I think it kind of causes him to be scared nobody would ever understand him." She then stated, "And I want to understand him, but for some odd reason things just get worse for him. It's like he's holding some secret back. But I'm here to help understand him but it gets worse, and I don't know how to help him out. Because I lo..." but then blinked, as she cupped her mouth, gasping. Her face blushed deeply as even the fact came to her like a 2-ton weight hitting her.

Jaun looked weirded out, "Wait... you actually have feelings for that pencil-dick loser?" He then laugh out loud.

Charlie blushed at this realization but had little time to snap at him. For Lydia did, as she popped up with Vaggie, as she shot out, "He's no pencil dick. I coped a feel, and he's hung like a horse!" But then blushed, as did Vaggie and Charlie, as she grumbled, "Ugh, why was I drunk that night?"

Juan then looked at the trio, and asked, "Wait. You three have feelings for that loser? The one who ran away?"

Charlie began to become said before Vaggie said, "I don't have any feelings for that guy, but I can' tell you this, he's 100x the better man than you are pendejo."

Charlie stared in shock by how Vaggie was standing up for James.

Juan then arched an eyebrow as his friend asked, "You sure you don't like him? Because it seems you're awfully protective of him and his character."

Vaggie did something very violent, and kicked him in his privates, everyone can hear something akin to glass breaking as Jaun yelled and fell to his knees clutching his balls as Vaggie said, "As much as I don't like him, I hate chauvinistic pigs like you more."

Juan hissed, "Bitch!" And drew out his fist to hit her.

Only for Lydia to grab his wrist and flip him over on his back, as she hissed at him, "Don't you dare try that on a friend of mine!"

"Screw this... I'm gonna teach you bitches a lesson!" Jaun said as his voice sounded higher pitched before he ordered his guys, "Get 'em guys!"

The two girls were in a fist and cat fight with the guys while also having Charlie in the center, as she was the one to try and reason with them all. Though with Vaggie punching, and Lydia throwing off or kicking in the groin didn't help much in the way of peace.

Charlie tried to stop the fighting.

"Guys, wait," she pleaded with them, as she dodged or ducked from the fight, "Can't we all just get along?"

"No." Vaggie said as she slugged the next guy that tried to either hurt or cop a feel.

Though Lydia cried out, "Where are the Three Stooges?!"

Elsewhere

The party was going on outside, as near an outside bar, the trio were bobbing their heads to the side, while titling their hips a bit, as they were jammin' to the beat. And it was Haddaway's "What is Love", as they were dancing similar to a skit that they once saw together.

Back Inside

Vaggie had one guy in a chokehold, as she roared, "I am seriously cutting their pay!"

"You don't pay them," Lydia said, as she bit a guy's arm.

"Well, I'll start," Vaggie shot back.

Charlie went to a guy and said, "Hi, you looked stressed, do you wanna talk it out?"

However, Juan had gotten up from a corner. He then pulled out a pink vial of stuff, as he frowned, not wanting to toss it so soon. But he did it anyway, as the contents smashed on the floor, creating a pink cloud of sorts. Though once it got in contact with the girls, they began to suddenly feel a bit drowsy and fell to the ground, half conscious, as the boys, now wearing masks, looked down on the trio.

Juan walked up, and smirked, "Bitches. One way or another... we're having a hell of a time tonight."

Though unbeknownst to them, Daredevil was behind a chair watching the whole fight, and noticed Albert Dansworth snoozing it away. He then bolted to go upstairs and find the one person who could help the girls.

James sighed rubbing head from what he was being talked to by Vaggie...

He knew full well what Vaggie was talking about, but there was a problem in dealing with that. Something he knew that Vaggie or Charlie didn't consider if the Redemption factor would world. But he was taken out of his thoughts, as he heard a puppy barking. He turned around and saw scurrying from the opened door, Daredevil, as he bolted to him. "Daredevil?" He knelt down and gently petted him as he was close, as he asked, "How'd you get here? Did you sneak with us here?"

Daredevil went grabbing him by his sleeve and pulled him whimpering.

James scooped him up, as he wasn't able to follow bent down, and asked, "DD, what's wrong?"

James see DD can growl barking and wiggling to get out of his arms, whatever it was it was desperate if the Cerberus wolf wasn't transforming.

James bolted down, as fast as he could down the stairs.

Meanwhile

Charlie was barely conscious, as Juan was atop of her, pinning her sides with his legs, as he smiled, "Gotta admit, you may be a bit tall, but I like a girl with a nice rack like yours."

"Screw you..." Charlie said groaning...

He then slapped Charlie hard, even as Vaggie and Lydia struggled to get back up. Juan smirked, "I was hoping you would say that." And then reached down to tear open her shirt, showing a black laced bra, as he smiled, "OOoh, sexy."

Charlie began tear up as she saw this, "No-oo..."

"Please..." Charlie pleaded as she felt the anger and fear building.

"Cha-cha-Charlie" Vaggie said trying to get up to help her best friend but is barely able to even get on her own two feet before stumbling down as one of the boys lifts her up. Using this chance, the guy gropes her chest making Vaggie groan and grit her teeth at the feeling, "This chicka has got a pretty nice pair too Juan."

He tells him before he lays Vaggie atop a table on her stomach.

"But I'd wager she's got a smoking ass man, this is like MILF size thighs and cheeks" he tells him before lifting Vaggie's skirt up revealing her white lacy undergarments that fight tightly to her ass.

"This goth girl am not a bad fine either," another guy smirked, as he held an unconscious Lydia in his arms, groping her left breast, "Damn, she's firm here too along with her ass."

"You do what you want with that bitch and the kat-girl, I got the hotel-owner here." Jaun said grinning evilly at Charlie.

Charlie closed her eyes, not wanting this to happen. The trip to the Human World was supposed to go without incident. But now... this was a nightmare. 'No,' she pleaded internally as she teared up, with Vaggie struggling, and Lydia barely able to move. How did this happen? How did these humans manage to overpower them so easily? But now this was happening, as she thought, 'I'm sorry... James.'

"GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Juan said in pain, which made Charlie open her eyes, as she saw what had happened.

Juan was hefted up, over top... by a fuming James, as he looked up at Juan's flailing form, as he growled, "Nice try, Fuckheads!"

And then threw him right at the bar, crashing it in, as he looked to the others, and growled, "Drop them. Now."

The other guys back away and let go of the girls they had in their hands.

Charlie had trouble getting up, but then James walked over, and gently scooped her up in his arms, bridal style. He looked to the two and said, "We should get outside to find the others." He looked over to Daredevil as he was gently dragging a still sleeping Professor, "Daredevil's got Uncle, so we should be good to go."

"Fuck that, retard!" Jaun shouted getting up and looks like he was turning read.

Knowing she was still weakened, he gently handed her to Vaggie, and then pulled off his shirt. Vaggie almost blushed, as she said, "Hey! What are..?!" But then set it on to Charlie, as she blinked, "Wha..?"

"It's a little musky, but it should work for her for now," James said, as he still had his short sleeved turtleneck on with the long sleeve still on his left arm.

"I'm gonna fucking kill you~! Jaun roared charging at him with his anger making him look more insane than angry.

When he got in close Jaun raised his arm trying to kill him with a fist.

The Professor snore-stuttered awake, as Daredevil was dragging him by his collar, "Eh wha...?" But then looked to Daredevil, "Hey. You're not Mr. Kibbles." And looked around, as he asked, "Where's my..." But then went wide eyed, as he gulped, "oh my..."

James was hit in the face by Jaun as he continued to beat on his with his muscular fists.

The Professor blinked, as he sat up, looking to the slowly recovering girls, "Am I having the same dream or is my nephew being used like a punching bag? Without hitting them back in the face?"

This savage beating continued, even Vaggie struggling glared and shouted, "James, what the hell are you doing?! Fight back!"

"If I did that, they would die," James managed to say out loud despite everyone beating him up, "Besides, I'm hoping that they'll tire out. I can outlast this."

One of the guys looked to Juan, and said, "He's really not tiring out, Juan."

Jaun glared, "Hit him again, this time make it hurt."

They did manage to punch him hard enough, he stumbled into one of the tables. Though he leaned on it.. until one of them smashed him in the head with a fire hydrant, making him fall to the ground. He managed to slowly get back up, only for them to smash him back down, and continued to wail on him.

"Keep it up, if you have to make him spill the red." the guy said hating James now while pulling out his knife.

Lydia was now awake, as she ran over, "NO!" and grabbed the guy with the knife in hand, fishing him back, as she called out, "Charlie! Vaggie! Just tell him to fight!"

"Get off me slut!" he ordered swinging his arm while having trouble due to her cat-like attributes keeping her on.

"No! Leave him alone, you losers," Lydia shot out.

"Grab the little slut" one of them shouts as he and another grab Lydia and pull her off.

Juan growled as he kept swinging, actually aiming for the objects which the debris flew and hits his buddies.

"Ow" one of them groans after being hit and falling onto the floor.

"Get this bitch off!"

Charlie managed to get back up, wearing James's shirt, she weakly said, "James... get... Get up! Fight them!"

"If you don't Lydia's gonna get hurt! Charlie's gonna get hurt!" Vaggie shouted, "Are you really gonna let them do that?!"

Juan just cackled, "Oh man, this guy's a..." But then yelped, as suddenly, James's hand shot up, squeezing his balls, as his legs were crossed.

Everyone, including the girls and the Professor even Daredevil, cringe at this. James, half beaten up, stood up, as he glared at Juan, as he snarled, "I don't care if you get sent to Hell. I think it's worth it."

Juan yelled as he tried to get the other guy to let go of him.

But James fast-hard kicked him into a wall, making him comically slump down with a dazed look with his butt sticking upward.

While he does this, James became less human looking and more demonic as he glared hatefully at the man who tried to harm his friends, his skin turning red, hair spikier and his horns were showing, and it looked like... is his skin turning to scales?

Juan looked, "What the fuck are you?"

Until finally, he was a large red 10 foot heavily muscled dragonoid, with a powerful and long red tail with the tip no longer a point, but a half-moon blade to it. His arms large and powerful, with two blade protrusions sticking out of his elbows, his feet replaced with two toed black clawed feet with a back claw, and hind legs, with his thighs and pelvis covered in scale armor, his shoulders scaley armored points, his neck a bit longer for his body, and his face stretched out to a muzzle, and now his head sporting two black horns, his left bigger while a right normal sized one was there, and his ears stretched out in two points, with red glowing eyes looking down at Juan.

He then growled, "I'm what's waiting for you down in Hell."

Charlie stared horrified by what she was seeing, especially as the glamor charm broke once he had changed, how was he able to overpower that?

One of the other raver guys smashed a hydrant on him, as he shouted, "FUCK YOU, BARNEY!"

James growled, as his tail swiftly whipped him into the tiki bar, knocking him out. He then looked to the others, as he roared, "Anyone else wanna try?"

"Kill the freak!" Juan shouted at his buddies as he got himself ready with his knife

One of them rushed over with a knife and stabbed him... only for the blade to break, and go lodged into another guy's head, killing him. James turned around, letting go of Juan's balls, as he then swatted the guy aside, smashing him through a wall, making a hole from it.

The Professor blinked, as he said, "Dang, that's insane." Though his back was turned to not seeing the fight, so he was blind at the moment.

Charlie stared, while she was scared of what almost happened to her what James have become was more horrifying... Especially since he killed (involuntarily) a human.

James looked around, as he roared out, and ran out, smashing through the wall, leaving them all standing there, including a silently freaking out Juan.

Juan would stare in horror, "Oh god... Oh God you're a monster!"

Lydia looked to Vaggie and Charlie, and asked them, not caring about Juan, "Guys... what just happened?"

Charlie covered herself and said, "Somehow, James overpowering the Glamour... We need to stop him before he makes things worse and alert the Angels to his presence or the human news finds out..."

The Professor blinked, as he finally pointed at the hole, "Has that hole been here the whole time?"

Vaggie shook her head, as she grabbed him, "C'mon, let's get your nephew."

And everyone rushed out to find him, while Juan stood there still frozen out, but slowly, stirring... to madness and rage that the hot girl wanted the monster.

Said monster must have heard him as it turned its head in his direction

Though outside, everyone screamed as they saw James's monster form, and ran away screaming. Some were brave enough to throw garbage at him, trying to shoo him away. Though a brave few souls managed to catch shots of him to post on Instagram. Though as the party ran, the music still played as the trio were still headbanging to Haddaway's What is Love.

Charlie went and tried to stop him, "James... please..."

He whipped around, and snarled, looking angry, unable to recognize her at all.

"Don't... Don't do it..." Charlie pleaded looking at him with tears streaming down her face, "It's okay... They're not gonna hurt you..."

However, when she got close to him, he seemed to freak out, and backed away. It was almost a mimic of how Daredevil reacted on how he and James first met.

"Shh, shh... it's okay..." Charlie said soothingly to her as she glanced around at the humans, wishing that her uncle was here to make them stop while she takes a step, "I know... I know you're scared but it's over now. the bad men are gone, and you saved me, you saved us. You know me, don't you James?"

James though turned away, not wanting to face Charlie for some odd reason, his face clenched in shame at this outcome.

"James it's okay look at me, please." Charlie urged him remaining where she was.

He squinched his eyes, not wanting to, but looked pained in it.

Charlie went over, still covering herself with one arm and gently placed her hand on his scales.

James didn't want to look, but slowly cracked open an eye, expecting to see a face of disappointment or pain to it.

Charlie wasn't any of those things as she had a look of concern on her face as well as a gentle smile, "It's okay."

James's face calmed down, as he suddenly, slowly reverted back to his normal self, as he was eye-to-eye with Charlie again. He weakly smiled, "Sorry."

Charlie hugging him tightly to her as he said, "It's okay... You weren't responsible for any of those deaths..."

KA-BLAM!

James staggered a bit, as he stumbled forward on Charlie, who caught him. She looked down and saw blast marks on his back, as she looked to see behind James, Juan... crazed and with a shotgun in his hand.

"YOU'RE GONNA DIE, BITCH!" he shot out... only for his head to explode as everyone saw it happen.

The humans all ran away, as the Hellborn and Hellbound all saw the headshot. Though they looked above at the tree near the whole scene, and saw Blitz with a sniper gun, as he smirked, "Easiest target yet." He then saw Charlie and the recovering James, as he waved, smiling, "You're welcome.~" and then pulled back in as the Portal closed up.

The trio walked in the scene, as Lydia mentioned, "Well. Considering his actions, he was gonna be sent to Hell later on."

Clint then looked at his phone, and blinked, "Shit. Guys, I got 20 text messages from IMP. Apparently, that guy Blitz shot was a guy who raped and murdered women. 30 of them. They all pulled their money together to finally give him his just rewards."

Charlie sighed, "I think we should go home now..."

Much Time Later
Back at the Hotel

Everyone was heading back to their rooms, the Professor to the basement, and James was currently in his room. He slipped on a spare hoodie shirt, while packing something, with Daredevil snoozing in it. He sat on his bed, deep in thought on something, not sure if it was okay to do so, or to even acknowledge. He knew that if he did acknowledge it, things would cause problems for the hotel.

He would hear a gentle racking of knocking on his door.

He looked to it, and answered softly, "It's unlocked."

"You can come in."

The door opened as Charlie came walking in her jammies as she said, "Hey..."

James wasn't officially ready on this, but he had to push through, as he softly waved, "Oh, hi."

"I wanted to see how you were doing."

"Um, well.. I threw up a lot after we got back. Possibly due to um... something I ate," James nervously said. "Still reeling back on what happened, kinda thanked Blitz on the phone. Seems there was more than thirty girls Juan raped and murdered. Turns out they weren't murderers at all, they all committed suicide when Juan dumped them publicly and ruined them socially." He then shrugged, "And when he crashed in the Pride Ring, all of them took turns taking to beat him up."

Charlie chuckled nervously, "Yeah I heard, they recorded it, and the video's going viral."

James then looked to her, and asked, "So um.. was that all you needed to know?"

"No, I just... I wanted to thank you for what you did... saving me and the others..."

"Probably wouldn't have been in that situation because I suggested it," James sighed, knowing the consequences of his actions.

"James." Charlie said taking his hand in hers, "I chose to trust those guys instead of listening to you and he's paying for it now, but do you see me stopping in my dream of redeeming sinners?"

"I know, but I still made the decision in pressuring you to go," James said, as he sighed, pulling his hands away. "And even back at the party when I chose not to fight when I knew this would be a problem. In fact, me being here is causing more problems, so..."

Charlie then pushed him on the bed and got on top of him with eyes tearing up, "Please stop... we already went through so much together... do you really think that after you saved me and the others that I want you to leave?"

James blinked, "Eh what?"

"You're thinking about leaving, weren't you," Charlie asked looking at him with the same tears, "I just don't understand why you think leaving is going to help anything..."

"Because I can't find the answers here," James honestly answered, making Charlie a bit surprised. "Look, I know you want and try to help." He gently sat up, as Charlie still sat on his lap, as he explained, "But there are others more experienced Demons out there. Possibly those to help me through my rage issues. And believe me, I was raging out on Juan and his friends. I kinda read that there's an expert out there that could help. But he's a bit far away."

"James who is this demon you think can help you," Charlie asked, concerned that he might be tricked by a scam or a trap that was made to endanger him.

James took a deep breath, and gently lifted her off, as he set her back on the bed, as he grabbed his bag, "That's classified." And then turned his back to her, as he couldn't see her unless he stopped, "I'll be back in a month. If I can find him." And then walked off.

Charlie stared before she looked down tearfully at someone else leaving her...

James was heading to the stairway, as he was prepared to go on this journey. Until a certain Moth She-Demon popped up.

"You're seriously leaving? Like that?"

"I have to, Vaggie," James said, not looking to her, as he was walking down the stairs, and her following behind. "I'm just making it worse, like you said. I also need to work out my rage problems with my transformations. I barely even remembered Charlie until she ran up. That and... it's probably a good reason for me not being here. With the... you know what secret."

"You're the only one having a fucking problem with transforming, and I think it's because you always choose to runaway instead of facing your problems like a real man," Vaggie said crossing her arms over her chest. Before James could say anything, Vaggie counted off her fingers, "You found out you're in hell, you ran away. You thought I was crazy you wanted to get away. And after transforming you feel like you 'need' to leave when you're just running away from your problems."

Vaggie sighed, looking to him a bit more sympathetic, as she said, "Look I won't lie that I would be happy if you left, but after how you saved me, Charlie, and Lydia from those Assholes. You need to understand that you did more good than harm tonight."

"Well..." James said, as he sighed, "It's also something else..."

Vaggie narrowed her eye, "What do you mean?"

"My feelings," James answered, "My feelings to Charlie and Lydia."

"Well, just..." Vaggie said, attempting to get him to stay.

"And you," he honestly answered.

Vaggie froze before she asked, "Come again?"

He then gently cupped her face, and kissed her for a moment, until he pulled away.

Vaggie blushed surprised that her first kiss was with James, a man... a man had kissed her... and she didn't try to kill him for it...

... reboot...

James realized what he did, and sighed, "I should have known better." He then pulled out his scythe, and sliced down... creating a portal, as he looked to Vaggie, and sighed, "I need to sort this out on my own before this causes bigger problems." And then stepped in, as the portal closed up.

Before it closed, Vaggie practically screamed after him, "YOU MOTHERFUCKING ASSHOLE!"

Meanwhile
On Earth
At the Wreckage of the Party

The ravers were speaking with a man in the suit as he asked, "You certain you saw this young man turn into a Dragon?"

"Yeah, it was all Hulk and all," one of the scrawnier ravers said. "He was swatting, kicking or flicking others into walls. He was a beast, man. A BEAST!"

"And there was this blonde girl walking in, talking to him," a girl said, as she smirked, "She was kinda naive but fairly easy on the eyes to say the least."

He wrote that down while the woman next to him asked, "Do you have video evidence? We need to be certain before you can release it to the public."

They all held their phones out, as they showed them James the Dragon going on a rampage, and then Charlie able to reach him as he transformed back. It was true enough it was a Beauty and the Beast moment. Then they also showed Blitz blowing up Juan's head too.

"Yeah, and that weird devil demon showed up and blew Juan's head off," a bystander said.

The two shared a glance before the woman said, "I see, thank you for showing us this."

She then raised her hand and a blinding light shot out and affected all the witnesses having them stare with blank expressions on their faces as she issued the following order, "Delete these pieces of evidences. Once you have done that go home, sleep, wake up the next morning with no memory of what really happened. If anyone asks about this tell them that this was a Rave gone wrong when the latest victim couldn't get his way."

Immediately they did as instructed deleting their evidences before going home.

The two 'investigators' went to their car as the entered. the man removed his hat and said, "This was truly close this time, partner."

"I know, but we have our duty." She said removing the glasses, As she checked the mirror she said, "Call it in."

"Understood." The man said as he took out his cellphone and speed dial a number as a voice on the other end answered, "Speak."

"It's confirmed one of the dregs from the pit came up tonight for a night, but things got out of hand, resulting in two deaths. One done by their own weapon breaking off the body of the demon, and another sniped by an Imp." The man reported as his eyes flashed yellow.

"And the memories of the witnesses?" The other voice asked.

"Erased as well as their evidence." The woman with the three eyes said.

"Very good." The voice stated in relief, "It's because of the efforts of yourselves and other 'cleaners' that the truth has not been revealed."

"There's something else, your highness." The man said as he had his halo appeared over his head, "We found what appeared to be remains of a Glamour charm from the ancient times. that would explain how they had trouble with these mortals. It appears that it was broken from within, as if the energy used to power it couldn't contain it."

"I see. Bring the remains to me so that we can examine it more effectively than down on Earth." Their superior stated. Both Cleaners said, "As you command, Archangel Gabriel."

The phone call ended as the man started up their car, which the engine glowed with a divine light before they drove off.

In Heaven

Up in Heaven, in a dark, spacious, office the figure that was Gabriel shot off their cellphone before rubbed their temple through the strands of oak brown hair and then bemoaned, "Lucifer, what have you done now?"
