An unexpected turn of events surfaces in Hell one fateful day, when the romance between the devil and a dice bore fruit. A beautiful baby girl makes his heart grow softer, in yet twisted ways. When Cocoa gets taken away, however, the devil swears to...
Looking out the window of my room, I realized something unique: Me and the Cup brothers were next-door neighbors! The sight of their teapot-shaped house, made me smile because I knew I would see them again, for another adventure. Mugman told me yesterday, that his twin brother still owes the Devil his very soul, however, a little voice in my head, that the Devil not only wanted Cuphead's soul, but he called me "daughter"! I couldn't be his daughter, I thought back then, he has no heart!
I got dressed, cleaned my china, styled my cocoa hair, and made my way to Cuphead and Mugman's house. While walking toward my destination, I passed by the locals, but instead of cowering in fear when I passed, they said hello, and good morning. Which I was more than happy to do the same. All of a sudden, I bumped into a blonde lady with an orange parasol.

" Watch it, little cup!" said the dramatic lady.
I grunted in pain, as I got up dusting myself.
" I'm sorry, I'm going to play with my friends."
The Lady scanned me from head to toe, and a face of sheer recognition was displayed on her face. Not gonna lie, I felt like hitting the road and fleeing. But I wanted to double down, like my friend, Cuphead said.
"Hey, you're the kid who saved the citizen's life last night!" She exclaimed.
I smiled and nodded.
" Yes I am, Ms.?" I asked, slyly
The woman laughed.
"Oh, where are my manners?" The lady, said to herself, "I'm the one, the only; Ms. Sally Stageplay!"
I introduced myself, as I curtsied, and long story short, she even invited me to one of her plays and I could invite my friends, that she was going to star in. I thanked her
" My stars, and garters you're so full of life! " She said, " But I shouldn't keep ya waiting."
I smiled and was about to continue skipping down the road when I heard her calling out my name.
"Cocoa?"
I turned around.
"Yeah?"
She took me close to her and whispered:
"If youse need a place t' hide, from you-know-who; I know a guy."
I was sure I was going to keep this piece of indication in mind. After walking for a block or two, I finally arrived at Cuphead's house. I could smell the scent of a fresh batch of breakfast pancakes for miles, and surely enough, it drew me in. But what I didn't expect was that I would end up with my face splitting on the window, like a fly.
"Now which one of you boys can explain, why you pasted this poor lass, on the window?" Elder Kettle asked.
"Cuthed, Mugthy, iths mthe; Coathco!" I said, with my face still on the window. "Canth I comth inth?"
The boys were disgusted by my splatted face, but they helped me get unstuck from the window.
"Woo-wee! Thanks, fellas!" I smiled.
"You're Welcome, Cocoa!" Cuphead and Mugman replied in unison.
Suddenly, we heard someone croon. The three of us turned around, only to see an old beige tea kettle smiling at us.
"Awww, is that your girlfriend?"
I snorted cocoa out my nose, so hard, when he asked this question.
" Pardon me, Mr. Kettle, we're just friends." I protested.
"Yeah, and love's just... yuck!"
Elder Kettle just chuckled.
"Oh, you're growin' up so fast," he said, "go play outside, I have work to do."
We nodded, and as we played all kinds of games, I even brought a jump rope for us to play.
"And a-one, and a-two and a-three." I counted, as Mugman and I took command of the rope, while Cuphead did one impossible stunt after another.
"So, how old is Elder Kettle anyway?" I asked as we chased after butterflies.
Cuphead grinned.
"Probably all the ages in the world."
"True that, he is even a decorated war hero!" Mugman added.
I smiled, as I rolled my eyes.
"Pfft, how lucky."
Suddenly, the boys noted a vinyl c.d in my pocket and gasped.
"What is it, boys?" I asked.
They pointed to the c.d, popping out of my pocket. I was embarrassed at first, but the twins (especially Cuphead), made me feel comfortable as we bonded over a common role model: King Dice. Mugman, at one point, asked why did I like King Dice, and I answered the following:
" I guess it's because he sounds familiar," I said, " like I heard him from somewhere, but I can hardly remember."
The Cup brothers had an understanding look on their faces, before they exchanged looks as if they asked each other what they could do to help, suddenly it hit them.
"Maybe we should go and meet him tomorrow!" Cuphead suggested. I declined.
"Do you remember what I said about doublin' down?" He asked. "Y'all never gonna know if y'all never try."
I smiled cutely.
"It's a deal, then!"
Our three palms clapped together in a triple hi-five, to seal the deal.
"Don't worry though," Mugman reassured me, "if anything should happen to you, we'll keep you safe. Right, Cuppy?"
Cuphead blushed, as he imagined him and Mugman as knights in shining armor, and I was the kidnapped princess. They fought bravely to vanquish the Devil (because, duh) and they would rescue me just in time, and I would sweetly murmur his name.
"Cuphead..."
"Cuphead...?"
"CUPHEAD!"
His thoughts burst.
"What?"
"You were fizzing. Are you ok?" I asked.
"I -uh, yeah, I'm totally fine.
We then had to part ways again, with Elder Kettle saying that I was welcome to visit him anytime I please. I skipped on home, with no idea that someone with emerald eyes, was watching us the whole time.
"Oh don't worry, I'll certainly make YOU a star..."
