DISCLAIMER: I do not own Hazbin Hotel
Vynn had been a resident of Hell for 3 years, in that time, his afterlife had been…eventful, he'd gotten into multiple fights on the streets, he'd survived 3 exterminations and his favourite part…demon girls were fucking hot! Vynn had always had a way with the ladies when he was alive, and things hadn't changed when he ended up in hell. In the 3 years he'd been dead, he'd pulled a wide variety of gorgeous demon chicks, a horned woman who said she was a kindergarten teacher, there was also the rocker chick who resembled a hyena, then there was the lady dressed like she came out of the 1910s, she was fun until she tried to take a bite out of Vynn's shoulder. All the girls were fun, but there was Vynn's favourite…
"Oy, wake up!"
The British accent awoke Vynn from his sleep, looking to his side, he saw the naked body of his friend with benefits, she was slim with brown skin and she had long red hair with shades of navy blue and white. Velvette was one of the most powerful overlords in Hell, and she was wild in bed too.
"Okay, I'm up."
Vynn threw off the covers standing up and stretching a little, feeling his stiff joints pop. He picked up his clothes from the floor as he looked over to see Velvette getting dressed, bending over to put on a pair of panties, Vynn could not resist and gave her a smack on the ass.
"HEY!"
"Can you blame me? You put a fine piece of meat on display and don't expect me to bite?"
Velvette rolled her eyes at Vynn's comment.
"You're lucky you're a good fuck!"
"I'm aware, anyway, what's got you in a hurry?" asked Vynn as he put on his clothes. A white shirt with a red blood splatter skull picture, and a pair of ripped jeans.
"I have to get to work, I'm getting ready to put on a show and I want to beat the street cleaners before they come down to clean up last night's extermination. Plus, Valentino says he found something interesting he wants to show me and Vox, after Vox is done at the news station today."
"Fair enough, well, you know how to find me."
Vynn put on his jacket and walked out of Velvette's room, catching a look at himself in the mirror, his eyes were red and black, his skin was a sickly shade of blue, his hair was white. While still being able to pass for human, he still had some qualities reminiscent of an Arctic Wolf, the tail, teeth and claws were a couple noticeable ones. In all honesty, despite his appearance as a sinner demon, Vynn kinda liked how he looked, and the ladies certainly felt the same. After fixing his hair, he left Velvette's place and wandered the streets of Hell. Last night's exorcism was a rough one, Vynn had to be careful not to step in the pools of blood left behind by the exorcists. The streets were full of corpses of demons killed in last night's extermination. He took a shortcut through an alley when he heard the click of a gun behind his head.
"Turn around."
Vynn rolled his eyes but complied, turning around to see a pathetic looking demon, literally half his size, aiming a revolver at his head.
"Gimme everything in your pockets."
"Alright, no problem."
Vynn slowly reached into his pocket, before grabbing the gun and pointing it away from his head, taking out the switchblade in his pocket and slashing the mugger's throat. Things like this were all too common in hell, so Vynn had picked up a couple switchblades for self-defence. Wiping the blood splatter from his jacket, Vynn put away his switchblade and continued home. In the distance, he could see the airship of Sir Pentious, no doubt trying to take over the empty territory following the extermination, which probably meant he would be duking it out with Cherri Bomb, the anarchistic demolitions expert. Vynn had seen Cherri Bomb in the news multiple times, but he'd never seen her in person…meh, maybe one day.
When he reached his apartment building, he saw the severed head of someone he knew at the doorstep.
"Aw Mal, you were my favourite weed dealer, guess I'm stuck with Alfred from now on, ugh!"
Vynn entered his apartment and kicked off his shoes, sat back in his chair and turned on the TV.
"Welcome Back! So, Charlotte…" said Katie Killjoy, the most irritating News Broadcaster in all of the Pride Ring.
"It's Charlie."
Vynn raised an eyebrow, the daughter of Hell's big boss was giving an interview on 666 news, this should be interesting.
"Whatever, tell us about this new passion project you've been insistently pestering our news station about!" said Killjoy, while aggressively clicking her pen.
"Well…" Charlie looked around the studio, it was clear that she was nervous, but after taking a breath, she continued. "As most of you know, I was born here in Hell, and growing up I always tried to see the good in everything around me, hell is my home, and…"
Clearly Charlie didn't notice Killjoy stabbing a bug on her desk with her pen, the blood splatter getting on Charlie's face.
"...you are my people, we…we just went through another extermination, we lost so many souls and it breaks my heart to see my people being slaughtered every year, no one is even given a chance, I can't stand idly by while the place I live is subjected to such violence, so I've been thinking…isn't there a more humane way to hinder overpopulation here in hell?"
"This I've gotta hear." said Vynn, turning the volume up.
"Perhaps we can create an alternative way to change souls through…redemption…well I think yes, so that's what this project aims to achieve, ladies and gentlemen, I'm opening the first of its kind, a hotel that rehabilitates sinners!"
Vynn looked out the window, seeing the hotel in question in the distance, he had wondered why someone was building a hotel in Hell, not exactly a place that gets a lot of tourists, not even from the other 6 rings. Charlie's announcement was met with absolute silence.
"Y'know, 'cause hotels are for people passing through, temporarily…I figure it would serve a purpose, a place to work towards redemption…yay…look, every single one of you has something good deep down inside, I know you do, maybe I'm not getting through to you…"
Vynn wondered where this was going, Charlie stood on the desk and snapped her fingers, killing the lights, when they came back on, a spotlight showed she was sitting on a piano with a little goat creature playing.
I have a dream,
I'm here to tell
About a wonderful, fantastic new hotel
Yes, it's one of a kind, right here in Hell
Catering to a specific clientele
Oooh ooh ooh
Inside of every demon is a rainbow!
Inside every sinner is a shiny smile!
Inside of every creepy hatchet-wielding maniac,
Is a jolly, happy, cupcake-loving child!
We can turn them 'round!
They'll be Heaven-bound!
With just a little time down at the Happy Hotel!
So, all you junkies, freaks, and weirdos,
Creepers, fuck-ups, crooks, and zeroes,
And downfallen superheroes, hope is here!
All of you cretins, sluts, and losers,
Sexual deviants and boozers
And prescription drug abusers
Need not fear!
Forever again
We'll cure your sin
We'll make you well, you'll feel so swell
Right here in Hell, at the Happy Hotel!
There'll be no more fire,
And no more screams
Just puppy dog kisses, and cotton candy dreams
And puffy-wuffy clouds, you're gonna be like "Wow!"
Once you check in with me!
So, all your cartoon porn addictions,
Vegan rants, psychic predictions,
Ancient Roman crucifixions
End right here!
All you monsters, thieves, and crazies,
Cannibals and crying babies,
Frothing mouth that's full of rabies,
Filled with cheer!
You'll be complete!
It'll be so neat!
Our service can't be beat!
You'll be on easy street! Yes!
Life will be sweet at the Happy Hotel~!
Yeah!
Charlie had to catch her breath after that extremely energetic song. There was a pause before Vynn heard someone behind the camera.
"Wow…that was shit!"
Every single demon in the news station started laughing at Charlie.
"What, in the 9 circles, makes you think a single denizen of Hell would give 2 shits about becoming a better person? You have no proof that this little experiment even works. You want people to be good just because?"
Vynn reached into his jacket pocket, pulling out his wallet, looking at the picture inside.
"Well, we have a patron already, who believes in our cause and he's shown incredible progress."
"Oh? And who might that be?"
"Oh, just someone named…Angel Dust…"
Huh, where had Vynn heard that name before?
"The porn star?" asked Tom Trench
Oh yeah, that's where. Angel was one of the most famous porn stars in Hell. He was employed by Valentino, one of the Vees and a friend and associate of Velvette.
"You fucking would, Tom. In any case, that's not even an accomplishment. I'm sure you can get that hooker to do anything with enough booger sugar and lube."
"Oh, I beg to differ, he's been behaved, clean and out of trouble for 2 weeks now!"
"BREAKING NEWS!"
"We are receiving word that a new player has entered the ongoing turf war, let's go to the live feed…"
The live feed showed that Angel Dust was fighting Sir Pentious' eggs.
"Oh shit." said Charlie
"Oh shit, indeed, it looks like the one who just joined the battle is none other than…porn actor, Angel Dust, what a juicy coincidence, you must feel really stupid right now."
Killjoy and Trench started laughing, before feeling glee at the ratings this would bring them.
"Don't look at this." said Charlie, trying to block the footage.
"Well, it sure looks like your little project is dead on arrival, tell us, how does it feel to be such a total failure, HAHAHAHAHA!"
"Yeah, well how does it feel that I got your pen, bitch!"
The laughter abruptly stopped, this was not going to end well.
"Hehe, oops."
Tom made the smart decision to get the fuck out of there, last time a guest called Katie a bitch, they were picking bits of him out the walls for weeks. Katie transformed into her full demon form and that's when Vynn turned off the TV, looking into the picture in his wallet again. Redemption? For Sinners? Isn't Hell's whole tagline "Eternal Damnation", still, a chance to leave the endless torment for an eternity in Heaven…there's a certain appeal there. A rumbling in Vynn's stomach pulled him from his thoughts and he decided to go grab a bite at his favourite diner, as long as the staff weren't exterminated, thankfully, they were all still there. A female sinner, with qualities reminiscent of a mouse, waved as he entered.
"Ah, Vynn, good to see my favourite regular is still kicking."
"You know it, Kay, I'll just take my usual for today." said Vynn, taking a seat.
"Coming right up, so, did you see the princess' little project?"
"I saw, what do you think?"
"That fucking bitch must have an IQ in the negatives if she thinks any sinner actually gives 2 shits about redemption. You don't believe it's possible, do you?"
"I don't know, when I was alive, my sister believed there was good in everyone, no matter how deep down it is, that kind of heart is why she likely ended up in heaven."
"Ha! She sounds like such a dumb bit-"
Kay's words were cut off when Vynn grabbed her by the throat, his claws digging into the back of her neck.
"I'm going to fucking stop you right there! Say anything bad about my sister and I will feed you your own heart, am I clear?"
Kay had seen Vynn lose his temper before with other customers, it was kinda hot, but experiencing his anger first hand was completely different, it was genuinely scary.
"C-crystal."
"Good."
Vynn let go of Kay and she fell on her ass, before standing and wiping down her uniform.
"I'll, uh, I'll get your order ready."
Kay walked off as Vynn took out his phone and played some games. Soon, his order arrived and he started eating, but out the window, he spotted Charlie's Happy Hotel. Could redemption really be possible? Once Vynn finished his food, he paid and walked out of the diner, before he started to walk home, but he stopped and turned to look towards the hotel. Turning on his heels, he started walking the opposite direction.
At V Tower, Velvette just arrived, Valentino had a box in his hand and Vox was sitting on the couch.
"Velvette, glad you could finally join us."
"Let's make this quick, Vox, I'm planning a show for next week and I need all my attention on it, so this better be fucking good."
"Oh, it's better than good, I recently came across something that changes everything."
Valentino set the box down and removed the lid. Vox and Velvette stared in shock at the contents.
"That's impossible…" said Vox
"I thought so too, but it appears we've been mistaken for so long." said Valentino
Velvette reached in and pulled the Angel's head from the box by the horn.
"Looks like the game has changed."
Vynn had reached the gate to the…Hazbin Hotel? Wasn't this place called the Happy Hotel? Ugh, never mind. Walking through the garden, he saw the wreckage of what appeared to be pieces of Sir Pentious' air ship. He approached the door and took a breath, before entering, there was a small group that were eating jambalaya around a table and watching TV.
"Um, excuse me, am I in the right place?" asked Vynn
The group turned to look at Vynn.
"Well, depends where you're going, handsome." Said Angel Dust
Vynn knew this must be the right place if that porn star is here.
"My name is Vynn, I'm looking for the rehabilitation hotel run by the princess."
Charlie set down her jambalaya and walked up to Vynn, with a long haired woman with an X over her eye.
"You're in the right place, what are you after?"
"I'm after redemption."
That's all for now, hope you enjoyed so far.
