Lincoln remembered how good it was in that limo ride that he had won and felt that it was nice again as he was riding with Charlie, Vaggie, Angel Dust and Lucifer. Bun-Bun and Razzle And Dazzle riding with them on their own special seats. "Here we are... This is special as the Pride Ring location was the first one that I had opened up and it was a rousing success and I did it before that Disney guy did so I was the first Imagineer!" Lucifer said sounding boastful as he opened the door to them and they looked at the enormous line in front of the impressive looking entrance to Lu Lu World that seemed to have golden apple ornaments as decoration.
"Going to be a long wait to get in..." Lincoln said looking at the line in astonishment and not looking forward to the wait; all the parks he had ever been to WISHED that they had lines like this one. Lucifer replied by laughing as if Lincoln had told the funniest joke ever.
Lucifer then ruffled the confused Lincoln's hair and then had them all follow him as they walked past the line. Charlie and Vaggie held onto Lincoln's hand as they heard the muttering of the demons in the line:
"That's the royal family and so is that... The new human grandkid?"
"The brat has gone from human to third in line to the throne of Hell..."
"You think that we can set him up with anyone?"
"Looks weak..."
"Off course he is weak; he's the bimbo princess's son..."
Said demon got a zap of lightning right next to him making hi jump in fear as the demons stood away. "Back to the end of the line!" Lucifer warned with a glare as he was pointing his finger like a gun; the demon then quickly complied as Lucifer looked to the group who were taken by surprise including Lincoln who was trying to drown out the mutterings. "See Lincoln... As part of the royal family now; you need to keep this in mind as I taught this to Charlie long ago... Don't take shit from other demons!" Lucifer then told Lincoln looking down as Lincoln wondered if he had the power to scare off other demons like that.
They soon got to the front of the line; the security demons then took them to the 'royal' entrance; "Plus Lincoln as this is my park... Family members get free entry!" Lucifer said as Lincoln looked at the busy park with so many stands, attractions and rides.
"I loved coming here with mum and dad on trips and I still like to go myself... Plus to other parks like Uncle Mammon's..." Charlie then told Vaggie and Lincoln with a smile but paused as she looked at her father who looked tense. "Sorry... Uncle Mammon set up his own park inspired by this one which isn't as popular..." Charlie whispered to them.
"More like shamelessly fucking riped off but I digress..." Lucifer then said as he then striked a pose. "So what do you all want to do first... Go on a ride? Oh the Flying Twist is a popular one!" Lucifer said pointing to where they could see in the distance what looked looked like a cylinder ride where the block with the seats of the riders came rushing up and then stretched out and then turned them upside down several times screaming before the whole ride started spinning.
"Yeah... Fuck no... I can wait..." Angel Dust snarked as Lincoln and Vaggie looked terrified with their mouths wide open.
"Yeah... It can be a bit much..." Charlie said as Lucifer then patted them on their backs.
"Come on; it's totally fucking safe... The safety inspectors had nothing bad to say about any of the rides!" Lucifer assured them as Vaggie looked at him.
"The safety inspectors... that works for the government... The government that works toward the law of the king in charge of all of Hell... That being you... Safety inspectors that works for you cleared the rides at the park owned by you?" Vaggie asked slowly with a judgemental look.
"What is your point?" Lucifer asked raising an eyebrow as Charlie got them together.
"Come on; it starts off scary but it's still fun!" Charlie assured them as they went forward to the direction.
After the ride; the exit was manned by demons with complimentary barf buckets which were trash can sized and Lincoln, Vaggie and Angel Dust made use of them. "I swear... My death didn't feel this bad... Still fucking awesome though..." Angel Dust remarked upon finishing barfing and Lincoln had to give his thumbs up to this.
Soon Lincoln and Angel Dust were trying a stand where they were throwing actual grenades at targets which was kind of fun; plus Lincoln never thought he would be manning actual weapons for this. Especially not for a game at an amusement park ride.
"Oh my... The tunnel of lovemaking! I haven't been there since my ex and I broke up... Vaggie we have to..." Charlie said excitedly looking at a ride entrance in the shape of a pink heart and Vaggie smiled as Charlie pretty much dragged her by the wrist.
Then a demon went up to Lucifer and said "excuse me; you're highness... I'm the manager and I was hoping that I could see you for a minute please..."
"Sure thing... Wait... I thought that the Barnum guy managed this place?" Lucifer asked wide eyed at the demon who shook his head.
"I'm his replacement; he died 2 Exterminations ago." explained the demon and Lucifer then looked to Angel Dust.
"You... Sinner whose name I already forgot; can you look after Lincoln for a second..." Lucifer asked as Razzle and Dazzle were seen playing with Bun-Bun in a pets area. Angel Dust then shrugged and Lucifer got in his face making Lincoln jump; "I mean it... Something happens to him and you're done..." Lucifer warned as Angel Dust terrified nodded his head as Lucifer then left.
"Are you alright..." Lincoln asked Angel Dust who laughed it off.
"Don't worry about me Lincoln... Just continue enjoying this place." Angel Dust told him giving him a smile as Lincoln then thought of something.
"Can I ask you something Angel Dust... You're at the hotel to redeem your soul to get into Heaven... What are you planning to do when you get there?" Lincoln asked as Angel Dust gave him a look before chuckling making Lincoln frown.
"Listen Lincoln... I don't really believe in the redemption junk; I am in this for the safe place to stay in... If it's possible; I don't think that I would ever have a chance to get up to the clouds... I let my old man drag me into the family mob business and I have done a lot of wrong shit... I don't think that I am cut for that Heaven stuff..." Angel Dust whispered to Lincoln who then frowned as they sat down.
"You never know if you don't try; you could surprise yourself." Lincoln told him encouragingly as Angel Dust was wide eyed but laughed.
"Yeah sure Lincoln... I will give it a shot for you... I kind of owe you..." Angel Dust then told Lincoln who looked confused. "You know that chain and paper... You see I think you accidentally got my soul transferred to you and you broke a deal I made... A real shitty one where I sold my soul to one of the overlords of Hell... Basically the sinners who are stronger than the others and have souls taken through deals... Kind of like mob bosses of Pentagram City... You freed my soul..." Angel Dust then decided to explain to Lincoln who was surprised.
"Wow... I did that..." Lincoln said in awe that he broke a magical deal without realising it.
"Yeah... Thank you... I can't thank you enough..." Angel Dust then told him with a smile as Lincoln then smiled back.
"Well you're welcome Angel Dust..." Lincoln said as Angel Dust then thought of something.
"But... If I was there... I would say hello to my mum again and Molly... My twin and she got out of the life... i know they are up there in the clouds..." Angel Dust then told Lincoln who patted him on the back.
"You may see them yourself up there today." Lincoln told him as Angel Dust then laughed.
"This fucking cesspool of a place is too good for someone like you Link." Angel Dust then told him and Lincoln shrugged.
"Don't know about that... Made plenty of mistakes myself..." Lincoln said as Lucifer returned to them and looked Lincoln over.
"Still in one piece so good job.." Lucifer then told Angel Dust who smirked at him.
The meeting at the Vees Tower was adjourned and Valentino was obsessed over why he didn't have Angel Dust's contract. There was no way that the slut was able to get out of it; it was fucking impossible. Deciding to find him and get to the bottom of this; he looked on his phone to see if Angel Dust was found anywhere on social media... There; he was spotted at Lucifer's amusement park...
Without taking a closer look in his angry emotional state and with his allies going to run their own businesses so they couldn't stop him; he then left to get to the location himself.
Did anyone catch the dig at ALAD that I put in last chapter?
