The Abyss Vs The Underworld

Shopping with Scarlet Rot

Malenia P. O. V
I awoke to Via heavy sighing as she got out of bed. "What's wrong?" I asked curious of her disappointing aura this early in the morning. She was startled by my sudden awakening as she made a tiny eep sound to turn to me. "Oh your awake" she said with a nervous smile. "I'm a very light sleeper" I told her as I arose from the chair. "Heh well in terms of my fast lost in faith of my morning all you have to do is listen and you'll get your answer" she said saddened. I did what she said and listened I started to hear vicious arguing loud enough to wake up even Radahn and he LOVES sleep. It was the same voices from Stolas and Stella. I assumed it was no big deal the first time around but seeing via like this and the argument happening the VERY next day makes it seem like this has been happening all Octavia's life. Poor girl. I grabbed her hand and walked downstairs and let her lead me to the kitchen. When we got there the yelling got louder. Screw Radahn these two could wake up all of Leyndell.  We got our food that was made by the imp called "Pringles" and sat down next to radahn who still seemed tired. Obviously from the eruption of screaming his rest was interrupted. We began eating and with nice table manners as well because as much as I didn't like Stella we still needed a place to stay.
Radahn was...visibly trying to resist just launching the food into his mouth and leaving JUST to get away from the obnoxious arguing and I don't blame him it's taking every fiber of my being to not just throw the food in the trash and walking out but that would be rude I'm sure it'll be over when we're done with our food

I was wrong I was very very wrong in fact I'm pretty sure it got louder I washed my plate put it away and grabbed a very sad Octavia who didn't even look like they ate much. I leaned down to whisper to her. "Hey why don't you show me around hell?" I said still leaning down next to her. She looked at me and smiled. "Sure we'll even get you new clothes." She said before she stood up and grabbed my hand. "Alright let's go to the mall" she said as she made our way to the door with a very happy Radahn behind us. She was walking us down a path called the sidewalk and on our way there Octavia said she was listening to something called " Die and Rot" which seemed like a pretty big coincidence to her but I'm not minding that. 5 min later We started passing by many....unique looking civilians let's just say most look like they have gone a couple rounds with scarlet rot. I saw a cheetah with an eye on his chest, a frog with a weird suit and the size of a human, along with a third eye, and finally a male wearing a red suit with red hair, tiny deer antlers, a yellow toothy grin and a weird looking staff that looked like a mini version of the Devourers scepter. As we walked past these unique people Via kept talking about a clothing store called "Hell topic" where she gets all of her clothing from as we made our way there we heard on the news that the dragon that Radahn heard yesterday was defeated by a knight that works in the "Hazbin Hotel" that's interesting I'm sure Radahn is going to want to fight him. We kept walking and we eventually got to a huge building that only one would compare to the base of the Haligtree. "Alright we are finally here thank Satan." She said as she led us in. Alright let's get you and Radahn some clothes. We stopped by a nice place called "The Great Whale" and it had an abundance of colorful clothing. None of the clothing stood out to me but Radahn found a nice black shirt that SOMEHOW fit him it said Leo with the constellation inside a blue transparent lion. He absolutely loved it and nearly broke every bone in via's body with a bear hug when she bought it for him. However we then went her favorite clothing store called "Hell topic". As soon as we walked inside all I saw was a lot of dark clothing. The literal opposite of the last shop
Octavia left me to look around and I did the same I eventually found the only white shirt here it said DIE and ROT in All red letters that were seemingly melting on a butterfly's wings in the middle of the shirt. It was very beautiful art and I decided I should have it. "Hey Octavia" I called. I heard her walk right next to me and tap on my side. "What's up?" I heard below me and I looked down to see her smiling up at me. "I wanted to ask what you thought about this?" I said as I showed her the shirt. "Well your able to try it on silly" she said. I blushed out of surprise when the words left her beak. "You want me to try it on now in front of everyone?" I asked trying to confirm if that's what she meant. "Uhhh OH OH GOOD SATAN NO I MEANT JU-just uhh try it over there behind the curtain." She said pointing to a box that can BARELY fit my height but it did come with a curtain to at least block my chest. I walked over and pulled the curtain and wore it. I walked out of the box and did like the look on me I do wish it didn't show my stomach however I was slightly confused why Octavia was slamming her card thing on the mans desk so many times with her nose bleeding and she also got burgundy jeans with little ripped holes in them. In my opinion the holes make it look good. I was going to ask to try them on but apparently she was 5 universes ahead of me as she gave me the jeans and mustered enough strength to push me into the box I closed the curtain and got into the pants I exited the box and looked in a mirror I had to give it to myself I looked good. "Hey let's go get something to eat" I heard Octavia say at the entrance with my old clothes in her arms. "Oh and don't worry I paid for the Jeans already." She said waiting outside the door with Radahn.  I followed her still wearing my helm as I didn't want anyone to see me with "these" looks. but wearing the clothes that Octavia got me makes me feel bad about not doing something in return and maybe me showing my face to her might make our relationship stronger. I'll show her when she asks which will give me a couple weeks to prepare as she doesn't seem like she cares. She walked up to a counter pointed at a wall of pictures and got three huge see through cups. she gave one to Radahn and me and we all sat down on a couch well all except Radahn who sat on the floor next to the couch. I tasted it and it was pretty cold so as to not get frostbite I slowed down on drinking. "YEEEOWCH" I snap my head to see Radahn holding his head in pain with the nearly finished drink next to his leg. This idiot. "HAhahhahahahahah" I looked over at Octavia to see her laughing her face off. I just met her yesterday but it feels as though I've known her my entire life because I know she doesn't laugh like this often which is a shame.  "I *snort* tried to tell you to slow down hahaha." She said holding her sides in laughter with tears of joy in her eyes. Octavia looked at me while still smiling trying not to start laughing from Radahn's foolishness. She then changed her look from one of laughter to one of curiosity as she looked at me directly at my face. "Hey how come your still wearing your mask?" She asked. Goddamnit. "Oh um it's for-foooor uhhhh protection" I said causing her face to clear of suspicion. Phew. "It's cause she thinks she's ugly *SluuuuuurP*" the star oaf said. Reminder: attempt to kill Radahn tomorrow. Octavia gets unnaturally close to my face she got so close that I just barely felt her hand grab my helm. I grab her hand to try and stop her but instead of getting irritated with me she softens her look and something just possessed to let go of her hand. She lifted
My helm and looked at me with the helmet in her lap. I used my short hair to pathetically block my face but she moved it with her hand. "You look... Amazing I-I MEAN UHHH you don't look bad at all in my opinion."  She said sweating nervously. I quickly grabbed my helmet but instead of putting it on I decided to keep it at my side. We started smiling at each other for an interesting amount of time before I heard*SluuuuuuuuuurP* "Radahn I swear to the greater will if you make that sound one more time" I said staring directly at him. "Daaaang sorry miss grumpy jeez" he said throwing the cup into a blue metal can with a hole on top that we both assumed was the garbage. We all threw away our cups and started looking around more.
20 minutes later
We were leaving the building but I saw a certain Imp walking into the mall holding someone's hand but I couldn't see them as they were already in the building. 'Blitzo has a girlfriend?' I asked myself. I walked over to Octavia and tapped on her shoulder. "I'm going to go say hi to Blitzo you guys go ahead I'll catch up later"I said into her ear. She nodded and kept walking and talking with Radahn in the direction of her house. I walked over to see who blitzo could be holding hands with and as soon as I walked in the mall I saw stolas with the Imp holding hands....odd. I get closer and I see stolas lean down and kiss Blitzo. ON THE LIPS. I thought of Stella and how she could be a very stubborn and a very all around evil woman but did he not think about Octavia? As soon as they departed in their show of affection I ran up and grabbed stolas by the throat and pulled him to the ground I keep my hand on his throat and I raise my prosthetic over his head. "Now before I draw my blade I'm going to need a very very good explanation as to what this affair is." I said. Patience wavering.
1 hour of explaining later
"I see, well does Octavia approve?"  I asked. Raising my hand off of stolas's throat and helping him up "she hasn't spoke her mind about it" he said. "Maybe because she's too busy trying to fix YOUR relationship but who knows." I said with venom. I then turned to the Imp. "Now you, what possessed you to turn this into a romantic relationship" I asked still figuring out the tiny details that were not mentioned. "Oh boy" Blitzo said.
Meanwhile
Octavia P. O. V
Me and Radahn were on our way to my house until he crossed the road to grab a puppy with a hurt leg. "Awwww that's nice of-MMF!?" Before I could finish my sentence a hand emerged from the alleyway behind me and wrap a wet rag around my beak and he pulled me into the alley by my waist. I started to black out and with all my strength I tried to call out to Radahn who still had his back turned.It didn't work. Someone please save me. and I finally blacked out.
