Killing Butterflies - Lou Bliss
Present Day...
Y/N, Angel Dust, and Vaggie were sitting in the living room, listening to Charlie rant about the new extermination date.
"Okay. So, the extermination is coming in six months instead of a year," Charlie ranted, pacing around the room. "No big deal. Just a little setback. Nothing we can't handle. Just angels cutting our timetable in half. But who needs a whole year to save souls? Am I right? And next time when they cut the time in half again and again, we'll just handle it right?!"
"Yes, we will," Vaggie said, grabbing onto Charlie's suit.
"Oh, please," Angel said while scrolling on his phone. "Ya had less than half a chance when you started all this salvation bullshit. And now...ain't no silver lining this time toots."
"Sure there is, Angel," Y/N said. "We just have to look a little harder for it, that's all." Charlie sent her a grateful smile.
"Well, while she's lookin'," Angel said. "The rest of Hell is going nuts. People are already freaking out about the news. Look at what's happening in the Doomsday District." he said, showing them his phone. Suddenly, a message from Angel's boss popped up on his phone.
"Uhhh, what is a donkey show?" Charlie asked, confused.
"Ah, heh, nothing!" Angel panicked. "My boss, Val, is just freaked out about the news too."
At the mention of Valentino's name, Y/N scrunched up her face in disgust. "Like I said, everyone's losing their shit." Angel finished.
"Yeah, that's true. Sinners are desperate," Vaggie said thoughtfully. "Maybe desperate enough to try anything to escape the extermination?"
Charlie gasped. "This is the perfect time to recruit more sinners for the hotel!"
"Good idea, Vaggie," Y/N chuckled.
"Cute idea and all," Angel said. "But you really going to go out in all of this?" He showed them his phone again, there was fire everywhere and demons were getting killed left and right. It made Y/N cringe.
"Well, it's not like people are just going to show up on our doorstep."
As soon as Charlie finished her sentence, there was a big explosion outside that destroyed the wall.
"Alassstor! Assasssin! Show yourssself!" said a voice from outside.
"Who the fuck could that be?" Y/N mumbled, getting out of her seat and flying out of the hole in the wall. When she got outside, Alastor was already standing out there.
Above the hotel, stood a steampunk looking blimp. Looking up, Y/N saw that the person who was piloting the aircraft was a snake demon.
"Face my wrath!" the snake shouted.
"I'm sorry, but who are you?" Y/N asked.
"Who am I? Who am I?" the snake repeated. "I am the great Sir Pentiousss! Inventor, architect of dessstruction, villian extraordinaire!"
By the time he finished talking, Vaggie, Charlie, and Angel Dust had made it out of the Hotel, they were now looking up at the blimp.
"Isn't this the guy who attacked us last week?" Angel asked.
"I would of loved to see that," Y/N said.
Nifty gasped, suddenly appearing on Alastor's head. "Ooh, he's a bad boy," Nifty said, a wicked grin on her face.
"Huh, well if all that's true, you'd think we'd have heard of you," Alastor said, setting Nifty on the ground.
"I attacked you literally last week," Sir Pentious said. Alastor tilted his head in confusion. "We've done battle like... twenty times."
"Well, you must have been really bad at this,"
"Yeah, I don't recall fighting with you, like ever," Y/N said, feeling bored.
"Silence!" Sir Pentious shouted. "Now cower! For when I've ssslain you, the almighty Vees will finally acknowledge me as their equal!"
"Almighty Vees my ass," Y/N said under her breath as Nifty crawled on her.
"Ooh! Wait, who are the Vees?" Nifty asked.
"No one you need to worry about, Nifty," Y/N said.
"Enough!" Sir Pentious shouted. "Alassstor! Assssassin! Feel my wrat-"
Sir Pentious never got to finish his sentence. Long black tendrils sprouted out of Alastor's back and grabbed onto the steampunk blimp, shaking it around. Alastor began to laugh manically.
"Oh! Please! Stop!" Sir Pentious shouted.
"Um, Alastor?" Charlies said, concerned. "I think he's had enough."
"Nah, he's got a few more hits in 'im!" Angel said, smirking.
"Yeah, let him have his fun," Y/N said giggling.
As the blimp started to shake around more, Sir Pentious finally fell out, landing flat on his face.
Looking up, Y/N saw that there was a drone right next to the blimp, the camera pointing towards the hotel.
"Fucking Christ," Y/N mumbled. "I swear, I'm gonna kill Vox." Nobody heard her.
"Thanks for another forgettable experience!" Alastor said, twirling his cane. An egg thing fell right next to Y/N and splattered. Grossed out, she stepped away from it.
"Thank... you..." Sir Pentious said weakly. "For letting your guard down!" Suddenly, using his tail, he ripped off a piece of Alastor's coat. "Haha! Yeah! Oh, shit."
Suddenly, Sir Pentious was blasted away.
"Well, it looks as though I need a visit to the tailor," Alastor said cheerfully. "Would you like to accompany me, Y/N?"
"Hm?" Y/N said, taking her eyes off the drone. "Oh, yeah, sure. I've been meaning to stop by there anyway."
"Excellent!" Alastor said, beckoning her to follow him. "Best of luck chums!"
"Wait, you guys can't leave!" Vaggie said. "We need your help. We need you to do your job."
"We need a wall," Angel said, gesturing to the big hole in the wall.
"Of course. We can't let our new project fall into disrepair already, now can we, Y/N?" he said, nudging her. "What would the papers say?"
The two of them snapped their fingers. Alastor summoned some construction demons and Y/N summoned some tools for them to use. The two of then walked off.
"I couldn't help but notice," Alastor said as they walked. "What was in the sky that had you so distracted, my dear?"
"You didn't see the drone?" Y/N asked.
"Ah, that's what you were looking at," Alastor said. "Yes, I saw the drone."
"It's probably from VoxTech," Y/N grumbled. "Knowing him, he's gonna take every opportunity he can to spy on the hotel, especially 'cause me and you are there."
"Ah, you seem to know Vox quite well." Alastor said, jealousy knawing at him a tiny bit. "Why is that?"
"We were acquainted for a little bit," Y/N said. "That's all I'm gonna share for now."
"If that's all you would like to reveal, that's fine," Alastor said, his smile seeming a bit more forced. "It's rude to pry."
"Say's you," Y/N said, a playful smirk on her face. "Your one of the most nosiest people I know."
"You say that like it's a bad thing, dear," Alastor said, she chuckled.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I swear, if I see that man again, I'm rippin' his pathetic head off,"
"He was only complementing you," Alastor laughed lightly.
"He was doin' it in a way I didn't like," Y/N said, looking across the street at the electronics store. "Ugh, I hate seeing Vox's stupid face every time I walk past that store."
"Top of the hour and we're discussing a certain has-been who has been spotted cavorting around town after a seven-year absence!" Vox's fake cheery voice came from the T.V.
Even hearing his voice pissed Y/N off, especially since he was talking about Alastor.
" I'm sorry, dear," Alastor said, a smirk on his face. "I'm afraid I have to cut this short, I have some business to take care of regarding a noisy picture box."
Y/N grinned, knowing he was talking about Vox.
"No need to say sorry, Al," she said. "Do me a favor, embarrass the hell outta him."
Alastor's grin grew wider. "I'll do my best, my dear."
With one final look at her, he melted into the shadows, no doubt heading to his radio station.
Wanting to see what was going to happen, she walked closer to the electronic store. The crowd didn't pay any attention to her, too preoccupied listening to flat screen demon.
Otherwise, the crowd of people would of ran for the hills.
"Alastor's a loser, he's a fossil, and I don't mean to sound hostile, but the demon is a coward!" said Vox's voice from the T.V.
Y/N laughed, knowing what really went on that day.
"You can play that as gospel, folks. He thinks he can take my viewers?" he laughed. "Impossible. Stop giving him the time of day. Don't listen to anything he says. Alastor should have stayed away!"
Y/N hoped that whatever Alastor was planning would be good.
"Hell's been better off since he disappeared," he said. "Wondering where he's been? Who gives a shit! He-"
Suddenly, a voice came from the radio in the window from the radio store next door. Y/N's eyes lit up in anticipation.
"Salutations sinners!" Alastor's voice came from the radio. "It's good to be back on the air!"
Hearing the Radio Demon's voice, the crowd moved over to the front of the radio store.
On the TV, Y/N could see Vox's shocked and angry face. It made her giggle.
"I know it's been a while since someone with this much style treated Hell to a radio broadcast," Alastor said. "Sinners rejoice!"
"What a dated voice," Vox said.
"Instead of a clout chasing video podcast," Y/N could hear the smirk in Alastor's voice.
Deciding she didn't want to be surrounded by all these sinners, Y/N immediately unfurled her wings and flew back to the hotel as fast as she could.
Landing on her balcony, she ran into her room, turned on the radio, and turned her phone to the broadcast, hoping she didn't miss too much.
"Is Vox as strong as he claims or is it merely based on support?" Alastor said, making Y/N laugh. "He'd be powerful without the other Vee's."
"Oh please," Vox snarled.
"There was once a time when Vox asked me to join his team, I said no and that's why he's so pissy," Alastor said. "That's the tea!"
"You ØŁʥ timey prick!" Vox shouted. "I'll show you şµʩʩɞʁʁɨŋɠ!"
"Uh oh, the T.V. is buffering," Alastor said smuggly.
The T.V. signal started to break up. "ⅰII ʤşɫʁØʏ ʏØØ-Ø-⋃-⋃ ʏØ⋃ Įiɫɫɩɚ-"
Looking out the window, all the power in Pentagram City started to go out. Y/N was glad that the hotel was hooked up to a generator.
"I'm afraid you lost your signal," the Radio Demon said.
Satisfied, Y/N turned off the radio, heading downstairs.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------"When'd you get here babycakes?" Angel asked when he saw Y/N coming down the stairs.
"Just now," she said, sitting next to him. "I came in through my balcony."
"Uh huh," he said, wiggling his eyebrows. "So what did you creepy voice do hmm?"
"All we did was go to tailor, you have such a dirty mind,"
"It pays off,"
The two of them talked a bit more until Vaggie and Charlie came in. Charlie flopped on the couch with and groaned, a disappointed look on her face.
"So how'd it go?" Angel asked.
Vaggie sighed. "Not a single new recruit,"
"Yeah. Well, who would want to use their last days not fucking and fighting?"
"I'm sure there are plenty of people, Angel," Y/N said, elbowing his side.
"Sure there are," he replied as Vaggie went to go answer the door.
Y/N heard a thud and Vaggie yelling.
"You should probably go check that out, Charlie," Y/N suggested..
As Charlie walked over the front door, Y/N peered over her shoulder and saw that the snake demon who attacked them earlier was there.
"Holy shit Angel!" she exclaimed. "It's that guy who attacked us earlier."
"No fucking way," Angel said, getting up and walking over, Y/N followed him.
"Are you fucking nuts?" Angel said, standing in the doorway. "This chump was trying to kill us, like literally six hours ago. And now you want to bring him in here to live with us?"
"Absolutely!" Charlie smiled. "This place is about second chances, and who deserves one more than this...slithery...slippery...special little man."
"This could end up in a pile of shit," Y/N muttered. "Aren't you like, the protector of this place, Vaggie?"
Charlie did puppy eyes over to Vaggie.
Vaggie sighed. "I...guess he's not much of a threat without the war machine," she said, making Sir Pentious smile. "Or even with the war machine."
Sir Pentious' smile dropped into a frown.
"Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you!" Charlie exclaimed, hugging Vaggie tightly. "Sir Pentious! Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel!"
"Oh, no darling, thank you," Sir Pentious said, as Y/N eyed him up and down suspiciously. "You won't regret this."
"Eh, I give you a week tops," Angel said, as they all walked back into the Hotel.
Upon further inspection, Y/N noticed that Sir Pentious was wearing a high tech watch. The kind that Vox Tech sold.
"Don't worry, if he tries anything, I'll kill him," Y/N muttered over to Angel.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"What do you think about our newest guest, hm?" Alastor asked.
Alastor and Y/N were on Y/N's balcony, staring out into Pentagram City, something the two of them did quite often since she arrived at the hotel.
"There's somethin' about him that I can't quite put my finger on," she answered, leaning on the railing. "But whatever it is, I don't like it."
"Maybe you're being too quick to judge, dear," he said softy.
"Says you," Y/N said, playfully nudging him.
It was quiet for a moment, Y/N thought about what to say to clear the awkward tension.
"Can I ask you somethin', Alastor?" she said. "You don't have to answer if you don't want to, I'm just curious."
"Ask away, my dear,"
"How in the world did you get shot in the head by a hunter?"
Alastor didn't say anything at first. Y/N couldn't tell if he was annoyed at the question or not.
"I was burying a body in the woods," he said. "At the time I didn't know, but I was on hunting grounds. This idiot man thought I was a deer."
Y/N remembered the day she got the call like it was yesterday.
"I guess that explains why you're a deer," she snickered.
"How did you die, Y/N?" he asked. "You don't have to answer if it makes you uncomfortable."
"No, no, it's fine," she waved off. "It's not as gruesome as yours, but one night, about a year after you died, I was cleanin up some bodies in an abandoned church, when all of a sudden, a cop came barrelin' in. He shot me at least nineteen times."
"Nineeten times?" Alastor asked, his eyebrows raised. "That seems like a little much."
"Oh well," she shrugged her shoulders. "It doesn't matter anymore, now that I'm stuck down here."
It was quiet for another moment.
"I'm sorry for leavin' you, my dear," Alastor whispered. "I can't imagine what it must have been for you."
"Why are you apologizin' for?" Y/N asked, turning to look at him. "You didn't do anything wrong. It's not your fault you got shot."
"What was it like?" he asked. "After I died."
"It was hard," she admitted. "Really hard. It took me a while to get out of my house and do simple things like go grocery shoppin' or run the flower shop."
Alastor took her hand in his. "I swear to you, dear, I will never leave you alone, again."
Y/N smiled, giving his hand a gentle squeeze. "We're in Hell, Alastor, we're not goin' anywhere."
The two of them laughed softly.
"We should probably head back down there," Y/N said, removing her hand from his. "Charlie said she wanted to show us somethin'."
"I suppose you're right," Alastor said. "Care to walk down with me, my dear?" he said offering his arm.
Y/N giggled "Why, it would be my pleasure," she said, interlocking her arm with his.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"'Oh, I'm a bad man on the streets who never got enough hugs." Angel said sarcastically, reading off a script
Angel was currently wearing a large trench coat and a tiny hat, while Sir Pentious was wearing a white and yellow sailor shirt and a black hat, and a licking a large lollipop.
"'Now, where's an innocent kid I can sell crack to?'" Angel said.
"Wow. Who wrote this?" Angel said in disbelief.
"It's great right?" Charlie said, a smile on her face. "Keep going!"
Y/N giggled.
"'Hey, you," Angel said, pointing to Sir Pentious.
"'Who, me?'" Sir Pentious said, batting his eyelashes.
"'Yeah, you look like a kid who could use some devil's dandruff,'" Angel said, a bored look on his face. "Oh, for fuck's sake."
"'Not me,'" Sir Pentious shook his head. "'I have to go home and study."
"'Come on kid, it'll make you cool like me...'" Angel said. "The crack head.'"
"'The only cool thing here is to say no drugs,'" Sir Pentious said. "'Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to not have sexual intercourse before marriage!'" Sir Pentious announced proudly.
"Yes! Oh bravo, bravo!" Charlie exclaimed, standing up and clapping. "Wow, Pentious, at this rate you'll be redeemed in no time."
Y/N looked over at Angel, seeing a look on his face that she had never seen before on him.
"I...I'm going to bed."
"I am so proud of you, Sir Pentious." Charlie said while Angel walked off, ignoring him. "That was amazing!"
"Hey, Angel?" Y/N said, walking over to him. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah I..." he said, turning away from her. "I'm fine."
"Hey," she said, touching his arm. "Y'know if you need to talk, I'm always here."
"I said I'm fine Y/N," he snapped, jerking his arm away from her.
As Angel walked up the stairs, she couldn't help but feel sad.
"Everything okay, my dear?" a staticky voice asked.
"Yes, everything's fine,"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was late at night.
Tossing and turning, Y/N couldn't sleep. Her mind was on a variety of things. The hotel, Angel Dust, Vox...
Alastor...
Deciding that sleep was no longer an option, Y/N got out of bed and started to walk around the hotel.
As she walked down the stairs, she heard voices.
"I hated that song! Why are you so lame?" came Nifty's voice. "Not a bad boy!"
Y/N laughed silently. She loved it when Nifty said the most out of pocket things.
"Good first day," said Charlie's voice. "Let's get some rest."
At the sound of footsteps, Y/N hid behind a pillar, not wanting them to see her. She knew they would ask questions.
When she knew they were gone, Y/N came out of her hiding spot, walking into the room that they all came out of.
Walking into the room, she saw the watch that Sir Pentious was wearing on the ground.
Somehow, she knew that this had something to do with Vox. No wonder Sir Pentious randomly showed up.
Smirking, she picked up the picked up the watch, turning it on.
Vox appeared on the watch screen.
"What!?" Vox's angry voice said.
"Hello there, Vox, missed me?" Y/N grinned seeing the surprised look on his face. "You're gonna have to try a lot harder than that next time, hun."
She laughed, hearing Vox scream out in rage. She dropped the watch and, crushing it with her boot.
She walked back to her room, laughing all the way.
Little did she know that a certain Radio Demon was in the shadows, watching her interaction with Vox, thinking to himself.
