Demon's Daughter: Love Across the Divide
Chapter 14
Radio Killed the Video Star Pt. 1
~Hazbin Hotel/Normal POV~
Charlie was pacing back and forth in panic mode. Her beloved pet, Keekee was walking alongside her. "Okay, so, the extermination is coming in six months instead of a year. No big deal. Just a little set back. Nothing we can't handle. Just angels cutting our timetable in half, but who needs a whole year to save souls? Am I right?! (panic mode) And next time when they cut the time in half again, and again, we'll just handle it, right?!"
Vaggie grabs Charlie, calming her down. "Yes, we will."
Gwen, who had been attentively listening and observing Charlie from the couch, stood up and approached her. "Charlie, listen to me. I know you're scared, but we'll find a way to get through this. We always get through the hardships together, but I need you to calm down."
"Calm down, right. Right, okay." Charlie takes a few deep breaths as Vaggie rubs her back.
"Please, ya had less than half a chance when you started all this salvation bullshit. And now... (phone vibrates with some violent messages) Ain't no silver lining this time toots." Angel explained.
"Angel, come on, the hotel may be lacking certain things at the moment, but there's a chance we can make improvements," Gwen said, trying to stay positive as she defended Charlie.
"Yeah! We just... have to look and try harder for it!" Charlie chimed in.
"Well, while you're lookin', the rest'a hell's goin' nuts. (Angel holds up his phone) People are already freakin' out about the news. Look at what's happening in the Doomsday District."
He scrolls down, displaying people panicking with things ablaze. Suddenly, a pick message appeared. Charlie got closer to read it.
"Err, what's a... Donkey Show?"
Angel immediately panics, pulling his phone back. "Aah, heh, nothin'. My boss is just freaked out about the news too. Like I said, everyone's losin' their shit."
"Yeah, that's true. Sinners are desperate." Said Vaggie.
"Yeah, maybe even desperate enough to try anything to escape the extermination." Said Gwen.
Hearing this, Charlie gasps, "This is the perfect time to recruit more sinners for the hotel!"
"Cute idea and all, but you really gonna go out in all of this?" Angel asked her.
"He has a point." Gwen spoke up, "Nobody's going to listen when they're freaking out over the upcoming extermination."
"Well, it's not like people are just going to show up on our doorstep." Charlie said, right when a massive explosion blew up the wall from behind.
Outside, a colossal blimp hovered over the hotel. Within it resided the demonic serpent known as Sir Pentious, accompanied by his legion of egg minions.
"Show yourself Alasssssto. Come and face-"
Sir Pentious halts momentarily upon noticing Gwen in the frame of the hole. She offers a slight wave before gesturing towards the balcony above. Where Alastor was seated enjoying a cup of coffee.
"Oh, there you are. Face my wrath!"
"Who are you?" Alastor asks.
"Who am I? Who am I?! I am the great Sssssir Pentioussssss! Inventor, architect of dessstruction, villain extraordinaire!"
While introducing himself, Alastor manifested into a shadow that slide down the building to the ground. Materializing himself back to his original form in front of Charlie, Vaggie, Angel, and Gwen.
"Ooh, you tell 'em boss!" One of the egg boys in the blimp said.
"Oooooh, he's a bad boy~" Nifty appeared on Alastor's shoulder. Smiling a wicked smile as she gazed at Sir Pentious.
Alastor simply picked her up and put her to the ground before speaking. "Ha, well if all that were true, you'd think I'd have heard of you."
"I literally attacked you last week."
Alastor cocks his head.
"We've done battle like twenty times!"
"Well, you must have been really bad at this."
"Silence! Now cower! For when I've sssslain you, the almighty Vees will finally acknowledge me as their equal!"
Nifty appeared on Alastor's shoulder yet again. "Oooh, who are the Vees?"
"Oh, nobody important." Alastor replied.
~In Another Part of Pentagram City/Vee's Headquarters~
In another part of Pentagram City lies the Vees territory, where the loud music and captivating entertainment draw everyone's attention. Passersby on the streets are often seen gazing at the latest television advertisements displayed in the windows. The latest Vox Tech technology ad plays.
"New Vox Tech designer voyeur scopes, peeping on the neighbors has never been more stylish. Vox Tech! Trust us with your money!"
Instantly, customers flood into the store to purchase the newest technology available. They emerge clutching boxes as if they were precious treasures. Elsewhere, people were on their computers and laptops watching a commercial on TV.
"This week's episode of "Yeah, I Fucked Your Sister, So What?" Is brought to you by Vox Teck. Trust us with your entertainment."
Outside, people were fixated on their phones as if under a spell, their eyes swirling madly as they stared at the screens. Elsewhere, in a secret underground base, a demon sits in a chair watching several screens with different people on each one. His fingers are tapping as the words trust us plays on repeat over the screens. Electricity courses as he stands up from his chair, laughing maniacally.
"Muhahaha! Now that's good television!" Vox cried out in triumph.
Just then, his face turns to an icon with a picture of another demon named Velvette on it. A ringtone of a clown horn goes off as she tries calling Vox. He courses the call from his screen to his hands that flick with electricity. Transferring the call to another screen before he settles in his chair.
"Hello there, Velvette! How are you this hellish morning?"
"Oh, cut the shit, Vox! I need you up here now!"
"Whatever could be the problem, my dear?" Vox speaks as he looks at another screen while drinking his coffee.
"Your little boy toy is wrecking my studio while I'm trying to put together a show and-"
Off screen, the sound of cursing can be heard. Objects are thrown and people are running away.
"FUCKING BITCH!"
"Just get your ass here! NOW! Damn it, Valentino!"
The call ends, and Vox's smile immediately turns to a frown. He gets up, fixes his bowtie, walking over to a platform.
"Oh god. Here I go, Valentino. Just another fucking day with Vall. Hey, hey, hey. Fuck my life."
He stands on the ascending platform. Shortly, Vox emerges from a hidden entrance, replacing a life-sized standee of himself that bore the message "trust us." Putting on a smile, Vox steps out. Just in time to be surrounded by reporters.
"Mr. Vox! What are your thoughts about the new extermination deadline?" One reporter question.
"My dear people! We at Vox Teck Enterprises have always been at the forefront of innovation. And now, with this new oncoming threat, we are shifting our focus, to your protection. We are pleased to announce-"
A screen comes down next to him. Featuring the Vox Tech logo, now gold and with angelic wings, with the tagline reading...
"Vox Teck Angelic Security is coming soon! Trust us, with YOUR safety."
Using his left eye, Vox is able to cast out hypnotic swirls on the crowd of reporters.
"Uh sir, when did we begin working on Angelic Security?" One of Vox's employees asked.
"Thirty seconds ago. (walks off with the employee following behind) Try to get that bitch Carmilla on the books and cancel all my appointments today. I have a fire to put out upstairs." Vox elucidates, transforming into pure electricity. He manifests within the security camera mounted on the wall.
And that's the end of that chapter~
