Venom walked inside the building, and saw the state of it. Falling apart, and so dirty. Almost seemed like it was make-shift at the last minute.
"What a shit hole," said Venom.
'Maybe we could renovate?' asked Seth.
"We are here to RELAX!" said Venom, "No way am I going to clean up."
'Look, I'm not gonna stay in a place that looks like it could collapse at any time,' said Seth, 'So come on, let's find some wood and get to building.'
Venom, grunting in disgust, as he launched tendrils, and picked up debris. He then ran around Hell, taking things to help better support the building. As he did, some people came into the building, and were shocked to see someone else inside the hotel.
One has a slender build and is the tallest of the main cast of characters, estimated to stand around 8 feet with his heels on. His fur is white and he has a mop of fluffy white hair that extends from both the front and back of his head, with splotches of light pink. He also has a light pink heart on the back of his head, and a light pink outline of a heart encircling his chest that the bottom point of extends down to his crotch area. His arms have light pink stripes that additionally his top set have light pink forearms with white fingers and his second set have white forearms and light pink fingers.
His irises are cerise pink while his right eye has a light yellow sclera and left eye has a dark sclera. His eyelids are light pink and the color extends up to his eyebrows. He has three cerise pink dots under each of his eyes, which are intended to evoke freckles, although they are actually another set of smaller eyes. He also has a wide mouth full of sharp, pointed teeth and possesses a single golden fang, a feature he shares with his boss, .
One of his most noticeable features is his prominent chest. The chest is actually composed entirely of fluffy fur, however, which Angel intentionally pushes up into a breast-like formation with his tightly pinned jacket for show.
Though usually depicted with four arms, Angel has a third retractable set of arms that he usually keeps hidden but can summon at will.
His attire consists of a long light pink suit-blazer with horizontal white stripes down the length, a grey miniskirt, and long grey thigh-high heeled boots. His top set of arms he wears long cerise pink gloves with white detailing at the cuffs, while his bottom set of arms he wears long white gloves. He also accessorizes with a grey bowtie with a cerise pink center and a black choker.
One is a slim-figured sinner who subtly sports a moth-themed design with grayish-lavender skin. She has knee-length grayish-white hair with faded-purple tips and long jagged bangs which cover the left side of her face. On the back of her head, she accessorizes with a red hairbow with small tears on each side and two long tails.
Her right eye has a light pink sclera and an ivory iris, while her left eye has been replaced by a slate-gray eyepatch that sports a red-pink "X" shape, which glows when she is angry or irritated. Her mouth has small fangs and black lips.
She wears a blouse that is the same color as her bow and the "X" shape on her eyepatch, with a dark gray peter-pan collar, dark gray trimming on the sleeves, and two dark gray buttons down the front. She also sports a choker and a miniskirt with a thick pale pink waistband hugging her waist, both colored in the same dark gray.
Her accessories include a set of fingerless slate-gray opera gloves with matching thigh-high stockings, which include white scallops at the cuff and toes.
The other is a tall and slim-built white-skinned hellborn demon, standing at over 6 foot, around 6 and a half feet tall. She has long, ankle-length blonde hair with thin light coral streaks on the paler-blonde highlights, which is usually tied into a twice-banded low-ponytail by two black hair ties. Her hair also features bangs that are flipped to the left side and ends with a curl.
Her eyes sport light yellow sclera and red pupils, and have thick eyelashes and gray eyelids. She has black lips and rosy red cheeks. She features animal-like traits, such as red-toed hooves, fangs in her mouth, and a black animal-like nose. Her fingernails are black and pointed.
She wears a red tuxedo-jacket with darker red lapels and a small white tag located on the left side. She wears this over an untucked, long-sleeved, high-collared white dress-shirt that has two black buttons and dark red cuffs, worn with black suspenders and a small black bowtie. Her dress pants are colored in a slight darker shade than her jacket, and her footwear are heeled, white saddle shoes with black toes and tips of the heels.
"Um, hello there," said the blonde, "Welcome to the Happy H-"
Venom turned around, showing off his features to the others. They stepped back, while the moth demon stepped forward, spear in hand.
"Just what do you think you're doing here!?" she demanded.
Venom just walked forward, and snapped the poker off with two fingers.
"I was just renovating this dump, and you point a weapon at me?" asked Venom, "Even considering staying here, but never mind."
Venom went to leave, only for the blonde to stop him, saying, "WAIT! SHE'S JUST PART OF SECURITY! VAGGIE DIDN'T MEAN IT!"
Venom looked at the blonde, as she made a sad face, and Venom said, "Oh, please no pouty faces. They really make me sad."
"Gotta say," said the spider, "You're a real hunky man. Mind if I show you some of, Angel Dust?"
"Not my type," said Venom.
Just then, Venom hacked a bit, before pulling out a mask, and throwing it off. The three were in shock of what they saw.
"What? Never seen a Fallen Angel's head?" asked Venom.
"Um, how, did you do that?" asked Angel.
"I just bit off their heads," said Venom.
'So, not gonna introduce me?' asked Seth.
"Excuse me," said Venom, turning around, "Look, if they find out you're alive still, who knows what shit they might do to you! And I'd really not wanna see any hentai to you."
'So what? I gotta stay inside here?' asked Seth.
"Until we get back to the land of the living, yes," said Venom, as he turned around.
"Sorry, anyway, I'm sure plenty of you've fought off against Fallen Angels," said Venom.
"They're not Fallen," said the blonde, "They're exterminators. Coming down each year to keep Hell from over populating."
"... Never heard of them," said Venom, "Sound like a bunch of losers. Hardly even put up a fight."
"Um," said the blonde, "I... think you should probably stay here for the time being. Sounds like you've just arrived here, and we should tell you about Hell first."
"Um, Charlie, a word," said Vaggie, pulling her away.
When they were a distance away, Vaggie then said, "I don't want him here. He just ate angels like they were even a challenge! Who knows what horrors he's capable of doing! He sounds like he has the potential to become an Overlord. Which is literally the last thing we need more of."
The two turned to see Venom putting in new support beams, while holding up the ceiling with tendrils. He then looked at the wall paper he stole, and held them up, checking them out.
"That one?" asked Venom, seemingly to no one, "Doesn't really seem to hold up with the theme of red here."
Venom was quiet for a few seconds, as he then said, "Fine. A little different color here."
"And he's crazy," said Vaggie.
"Hey, he might have killed angels," said Charlie, "but, he's also seemed to have cleaned this place up out of the kindness of his heart. The whole point of this place is to give those a second chance."
Venom then heard the door knock.
"Hey, care if I go and answer the door?" asked Venom, "Seeing as you two are having a conversation."
"They're talking about you," whispered Angel.
"Yeah, no SHIT Sherlock," said Venom, shoving Angel aside.
Opening the door, Venom saw a large figure. Well, he was shorter than Venom, but tall compared to most.
The sinner is a slim, dapper sinner demon with beige-colored skin, and usually has a broad smile full of sharp, yellow teeth. He is standing at approximately 7 feet.
He sports a pinkish-red cropped, angled bob-cut with black tips at the ends and two large, black tipped tufts of hair extending from the top of his head, evoking the ears of a deer. The style has an undercut at the back, and two small black antlers protruding from the crown.
He wears a red pinstripe coat with dark-red lapels piped with white, which is ragged along the bottom hem. Underneath this he wears a bright red dress-shirt with a black cross on the chest, and long black dress pants with matching bright red cuffs. He also wears a dark-red oval-shaped monocle, rimmed with black, over his right eye.
He accessorizes with a black knotted bowtie with a bright red center, black gloves with red at the fingertips, and black pointed-toe boots with red deer hoofprints emblazoned on the soles. He also carries a thin cane with a sentient vintage style microphone attached to it, which he uses to play sound effects and broadcast his voice.
"Hello there!" said the sinner.
'I don't like the way he's looking at us,' said Seth.
"Whatever you're selling, we don't want," said Venom, as he slammed the door. Turning around, Venom said, "Some dude with a microphone and deer antlers is at the door."
"Wait, did you say microphone?" asked Charlie.
She then opened the door again, as she saw the figure.
Charlie looked at him with a look of pure shock.
"Hel-"
The door was shut in his face, and then opened again.
"-lo."
"Yep," said Charlie, "It's... the Radio Demon."
"WHAT!?" exclaimed Vaggie.
"Um, who?" asked Angel.
"That's a stupid title," said Venom.
'Seriously, who calls themselves a Radio Demon?' asked Seth.
"What should I do!?" asked Charlie.
"Well, don't let him in!" said Vaggie.
Charlie looked at the door, and put on a brave face.
"May I speak now?" asked the sinner.
"You may," said Charlie, with authority in her tone.
The sinner stuck out his hand, and said, "Alastor! Pleasure to be meeting you sweetheart, quite a pleasure!"
Alastor then grabbed her hand, getting in her face, as he walked inside, saying, "Excuse my sudden visit, but I saw your fiasco on a Picture Show! What a performance! Why, I haven't been that entertained since the Stock Market Crash of 1929!"
Alastor then laughed, with a laugh track being played out of nowhere, before continuing, "So many orphans."
However, Vaggie stopped him, with a new spear, and said, "I know your game, and I'm not going to let you hurt anyone here, you pompous, cheesy, talk-show shit lord!"
Alastor just pushed the spear to the side, and said, "My dear, if I wanted to hurt you..."
Alastor then spoke, without moving his mouth, and teeth lighting up as he spoke, and eyes became like dials.
"...I would have done so already."
Static started appearing around him, with weird symbols and all sorts of noise as well, as the two women stared at him.
"No, I am here, because I want to help!"
"... Say what now?" asked the blonde girl.
"Help!" said Alastor, getting in their faces, laughing, and tapped his microphone, "Ha ha ha ha, hello? Is this thing on? Testing, testing."
The mic then opened an eye, and said, "Well I heard you loud and clear."
"... You wanna help, with...?"
Alastor then appeared between the two, and said, "This ridiculous thing you're trying to do! This Hotel! I wanna help you run it!"
"Uuuuuh, why?"
"Oh, why does anyone do ANYTHING? Sheer, ABSOLUTE boredom! I've lacked inspiration for months. My work became untamed, lacking focus, AIMLESS!"
Alastor then shoved Vaggie aside, saying, "I've come to crave a new form of entertainment! Ha ha ha!"
"Does, getting into a fist fight with a reporter count as entertainment?" asked Charlie, embarrassed.
"Did the reporter start the banter?" asked Venom, "If so, then that asshole got it coming. You're just giving shelter to those who don't deserve it, but you feel they do."
"Actually," said Charlie, "This place is meant to rehabilitate sinners, teaching them how to be better, and getting them into heaven."
"... Not the weirdest thing I've heard," said Venom.
Alastor laughed, "It's the purest kind my dear. REALITY! TRUE PASSION! After all, the world is a stage, and a stage, is a world of entertainment."
"So, does this mean that you believe that it IS possible to rehabilitate people gone rouge?"
"Consider it investment," said Alastor, pulling Charlie close to him, "An ongoing entertainment for myself! I want to watch the scum of the world struggle to climb up the hill of betterment, only to repeatedly trip and tumble down into the fiery pit of failure!"
"Rrrrrrrrriiiight," said Charlie, pulling Alastor's arm off of her.
"Yes in deedy," said Alastor, dragging Charlie away.
"Okay, who is that dude?" asked Venom.
"Yeah," said Angel.
"Wait, you've never heard of him before?" asked Vaggie, "Him I'd expect, but not you."
Angel shrugged, as Vaggie said, "The Radio Demon? One of the most powerful overlords of Hell?"
"Eh, not big on politics," said Angel.
"Decades ago," said Vaggie, "Alastor manifested in hell, and started toppling Overlords who had been dominant for centuries. Then, he broadcasted each take down live, just because he could and everyone could witness his ability! No power had ever been harnessed by any being before. People started calling him, the Radio Demon. As, lazy as it is.
"Many have speculated what unimaginable force brought him to rival our most ancient and destructive evils. But one thing's for sure: he's an unpredictable source of nature, a wicked spirit of mystery, and a violent monster, the likes of which we can't get involved with, unless we WANT TO BE ERASED!"
"You done?" asked Angel, before chuckling, "He looks like a strawberry pimp!"
"Well, I don't trust him!" said Vaggie.
"To be fair, do you trust anyone?" asked Angel, with Vaggie glaring at him.
Venom climbed up to the top of the hotel, and retracted, with Seth coming out.
"Thank you," said Seth, "that Alastor sounds like trouble."
'Can we eat him?' asked Venom.
"No, besides, you already hogged out on the angels man," said Seth, "And you know the rules."
'Come on! It was self defense! Can't you make an acception!?'
"No, besides," said Seth, "You're getting just chocolate for the next few months."
Venom then climbed down, and looked inside, seeing two new demons.
One is a small one-eyed demon, akin to a cyclops. Her one large eye has a hot pink and yellow sclera with a light yellow iris, and a black pupil. She also has a single eyebrow and white skin.
She has short pink hair with a yellow highlight. Her teeth are sharp and light yellow, and she has small pink dots at each corners of her mouth, evocative of dimples.
She wore a skirt with a white top.
The other is an anthropomorphic avian cat demon. His look is evocative of a magician, paired with a casino referencing playing-card theme.
The sclera of his eyes are black, with yellow irises and slitted pupils. He has long, red eyebrows with black vertical stripes near the tips, and a small black heart above each eyebrow.
His fur is taupe-colored, overlayed with white on his face, torso, feet, and upper arms. The insides of his ears are white with a red tip at the point and red heart in the center. A black tuff of fluff protrudes from each, creating the appearance of small hearts.
He has a darker shade of taupe encircling his ankles, mimicking spats.
His tail is taupe and long, ending with a large spray of "plume-like" fur or feathers, which are dark pink with black and white stripes.
He has yellow-orange hearts underneath the paws on his hands.
His wings are large and red, with dark taupe on the undersides. The undersides of his wings are decorated with black stripes which feature red and white roulette wheel dot markings. His outside of his wings are decorated with more black stripes, which wrap around the joints and run around a row of white roulette wheel dots.
He accessorizes with a black top hat with a red hatband and a golden button-like decoration, as well as a red bowtie and black suspenders over his shoulders.
"So what do you think?" asked Alastor.
"This is amazing!" said Charlie.
Vaggie wasn't that impressed.
"It's... okay."
Al just laughed, "This is going to be very entertaining!"
Alastor then changed his outfit, and Charlie's as he sang.
You have a dream,
You wish to tell,
And it's just laughable
But, hey kid, what the hell?
He and Charlie then tap danced a bit, before dressing all the others in fancy 30 style clothing.
'Cause you're one of a kind,
A charming demon belle!
Now, let's give these burning fools a place to dwell
Take it, boys!
Shadow Demons then started playing instruments, with Charlie enjoying the beat, and Alastor holding everyone else close to him.
Inside of every rouge, is a lost cause
Husk just flipped Al off, as Angel winked at him when they were hugged, and Venom just snorted.
But we'll dress them up for now with just a smile
Vaggie was given a fancy hat, fur scarf before she was spanked by Alastor
Shadow Demons
Wicked smiles~!
And we'll chlorinate this cesspool
With some old redemption flair
And show these simpletons some proper class and style
Shadow Demons
Class and Style~!
Al danced with Charlie some more.
Here below the ground,
I'm sure your plan is sound
They'll spend a little time
Down at this Hazbin Ho-!
Alastor was cut off as the door exploded, and hit Nifty. Everyone looked outside to large a blimp and serpant.
"HA! Well well, look who's harboring the striked freaks! We meet yet again, Alastor!"
"Do I know you?" asked Alastor
Sir Pentious' ego deflated, as he said, "OH YES YOU DO! And I have the element of, SURPRISE!"
A giant cannon appeared, as Venom cracked his knuckles, and shot a web onto the blimp, and then pulled it down. He then jumped inside, and ripped the blimp apart from the inside out. Inside, screams and yelling was heard, as Venom held the serpant by the neck, and he held him above.
'Hey! Leave him be! Leave him be! LEAVE HIM BE!'
"I shall remove your head!" yelled Venom, making the snake freak out.
'No you won't!' said Seth.
"I WILL USE IT FOR BOWLING!"
"Oo, sounds interesting," said Alastor.
'NO YOU WILL NOT!'
"I will take it to, what is the one we like Seth?"
'IT'S LUCKY STRIKE! PUT HIM DOWN!'
"YES!" said Venom, "I will take it to Lucky Strike, and score a three-hundred point game! The rest of you will be left in some back alley, rolling in dumpster juice!"
"Oh jeez," said Charlie, "PLEASE, NO! DON'T DO IT!"
Venom opened his jaws at a 130 degree angel, and Seth yelled, 'NO! NO! PUT HIM DOWN! NO! NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONOOOOOOOOO!'
"PLEASE, DON'T KILL HIM!" cried Charlie.
"FINE!"
Venom threw the sinner across the city, as he walked back inside the hotel.
"Well I'm starved!" said Alastor, "Who wants jumblia? My mother once knew a wonderful recipe for Jumblia. In fact, it nearly killed her! Oh ho ho ho! You could say that kick was right outta hell! Oh, ho, I'm on a roll!"
Venom was then stopped by Charlie, asked, "Um, Venom, thank you for helping defend the hotel."
Venom then said, "Sure thing. Just doing what I did when I was alive."
