Chapter 7

Harry woke up feeling warm and fuzzy with his scales brushing against something soft and fluffy against his back and head.

Turning around slowly he saw a white and pink blur which he knew was his mother which didn't surprise him. What did was the fact that behind his mother was a red blur which he knew to be his dad.

Harry quickly tried to move away from the cuddle pile that his family had made with fat nugget in his arms since his mother was holding him.

Quickly he put fat nuggets in his mothers arms so that he could go down and get breakfast started since he knew everyone else was still asleep.

After all many of the people in this hotel can't even cook and while his father could he sometimes had a habit of setting some of them on fire without meaning too.

Which then somehow lead to explosions but even Harry had to admit that his fathers jambalaya was 'to die for' as his father said.

He quickly made his way to the kitchen and went to the fridge seeing what ideas jumped out at him, he never expected something to literally jump out at him. Quickly moving backwards and getting the island in between him and the being that had just tried to get him.

The being that had jumped out at him was something that Harry had never seen before in his entire time here in hell.

It was slightly taller then nifty by a couple inches with thick leges and arms, it's torso was disproportionally smaller then the rest of it.

Its head was almost like a bobble head on its body, but the strangest thing about it was it's lack of facial features. It had no eyes or mouth, it's nose was nothing but two small slots in the middle of its face and its ears were just cones on the side of its head.

Yet somehow this thing stared unerringly at Harry as if it could see behind the smooth skin where it's eyes should be.

Without even waiting Harry began to move towards the door into the main hall to get some space to use his abilities without fear of hurting himself or Vanna.

As he did so the creature moved as well jumping over the island to where Harry once stood, but it wasn't expecting something to smack it out of the air if the sound it made once Vanna smacked it down with the chains was anything to go by.

As Harry burst into the hall Vanna started morphing Harry's clothes giving it spikes and hooks all across with thick pads appearing around his vital points.

The creature quickly caught it self after the surprise attack from the changes and quickly followed after Harry.

It destroyed the door and leapt towards Harry's back as he rushed into the hall, once again the chains snapped out to attack the creature.

But this time it was expecting it and contorted its body in a way no being should have been able to, almost as if it snapped its spin and reversed its joints. The chains missed and the creature still moved forward but it had given Harry enough time to summon shadows to capture the beast.

It struggled in the grasp of the shadows it's sickly purple skin almost glowing against the shadows holding it.

Harry didn't wait and moved a few yards away from the creature and then began to channel his power through Vanna making the chains glow a sickly green.

"I don't know what you are or how you got in here but you attacked me and I don't know if you would have gone after the others once you finished with me. But right now I don't care I'm going to follow my dads example and make it so you couldn't possible for this again."

With his part said the chains flew forward leaving a streak of green behind before one embeds itself in the creature head and the other in its chest.

The green spreads through its body and the creature turns into a slush slowly melting into the maws of shadow snakes which begin to devour it as if starved.

Once the creature is fully slushed and all evidence removed Harry breathes a sigh and releases the shadows back from whence they came.

But Vanna was not changing back she had analyzed the creatures aura after turning it into a slushy treat for the shadows and found that more where still around. Before Harry even knew what was happening Vanna snapped her chains towards the ceiling and a loud crack could be heard.

A body fell from the rafters and it was the same creature they had just defeated earlier only different clothes.

As soon as Harry saw this he acted quickly and started rushing back up the steps to try and find the rest of the creatures before anyone got hurt.

Meanwhile back in the bedroom

Alastor knew something was amiss by the abnormal silence of the building not just the room but the hotel as a whole.

Even when all was asleep the hotel always creaked and groaned and the tiny critters that lived in the walls scampered. But nothing even made a noise he couldn't even hear Angel breathing and he was right next to him.

(He was not cuddling or spooning no matter what the insufferable fluff ball may say.)

He slowly moved his hand to grab his microphone without making obvious movement or getting up, he gently reached a hand up and placed it over Angels mouth.

"Angle darling I need you to get up and stay quiet we seem to have some uninvited guest at the moment."

Angel had reacted quickly to a hand being placed over his mouth and was about to start fighting but once hearing Als voice he calmed down.

Angel looked down and noticed that his little cuddle worm was gone and whispered back to Alastor. "Where's Harry he's not in my arms anymore."

Alastor sent out a shadow tendril to see if it could find his son but it couldn't get out of the room before something attacked it. "Hmm...it seems that whoever is doing this is slightly well prepared for me and my tricks darling but it's nothing to worry about."

Alastor's smile turned deadly as he rose from the bed and strode towards the door without seemingly any fear or uncertainty.

A creature dropped down from the ceiling sharp knife like claws aimed towards Alastor's head, without even looking up Alastor waved a hand and the creature disappeared into a hole.

As this happened Angel grabs his gun from under his pillow and the bat next to the bed and follows right behind his strawberry pimp.

"If they did anything to my boy I'm getting Cherri and am breaking some buildings after this."

Alastor chuckles at Angels anger but wasn't going to let that distract him from what's going on but felt that he should set the record straight.

"You would have to wait in line my dear after all this seems to be a rather pointed attack at me rather than just a attack on this fine establishment."

At Angels questioning look Alastor decided to elaborate.

"I once worked with a fellow who took much amusement out of taking denizens of hell and turning them into that abomination we just saw. Rather ingenious but so Clase and mundane for my shows after the first few airings."

Angel couldn't care less if this was something that was Als fault or not all he cared about was finding his little garden snake and making sure he was ok.

So they quickly left the room and began the trip through the hotel trying to find their son and destroy all the creatures infesting the building.

Soon enough the sounds of fighting could be heard throughout the hotel as the creatures had not been able to get the drop on any of the residents in the hotel.

Nifty had woken up as soon as the creature attacking Harry had destroyed the door and that had lead to her finding the one that was getting ready to rip out her throat.

Husker had so much alcohol in his room the fumes alone knocked out the creature before it even came close to his bed.

Charlie was safe due to Vaggie's paranoia and her spear always being on hand even when in bed with her girlfriend.

But that was the least of the creatures problems, because Harry didn't know everyone was awake yet so he was still in search and destroy mode.

He had already found seven more by the time the others had all woken up and joined in the fight against this infestation. But the fight had only just begun for everyone in the hotel, after all none knew of what upgrades had been added to these creatures.
