The Apprentice Of The Radio Demon

Chapter 59 Dad Beat Dad (More Than Anything)

In the hallways of the Hotel, Charlie was showing her father about the interiors of the hotel."So, once we have the proof that redemption is possible, this whole hotel will be full of demons waiting to check out into heaven! We just need a little time to prove it. The sharing circles haven't been working as fast as I hoped." As Charlie continues to explain about the Hotel, Alastor is called out by Husk. "Hey, boss. Can I have a word?" He asked. Alastor twisted his head 180 degrees before he rotated his whole body in place. "What is it?"

Unbeknownst to them, (Y/n) stayed in the shadows as she listened carefully. "You and I know both know Mimzy only shows up when she needs something. That bitch is trouble, and who knows what kind of demon she fucked with to come running to you this time." Husk tried to warn. "It's nothing I can't handle. Don't worry Husker. Who in their right mind would cross me?" Alastor continued to walk again. "I mean, you've been gone for a while, and it's not like anybody knows why. Not even (Y/n) knows why. After all, you left her with me for 6 years before coming back for her." Husk said. It's true that (Y/n) has always wondered why Alastor left her in Husk's care all those years ago. She always thought she was the cause of him leaving for that long. "They don't need to know, especially my sweet little (Y/n). It was better to leave her in your care at the time. She doesn't need to worry about it. And don't worry your fuzzy little head about it." Alastor rubs Husk's ears. Husk growls at him. "You may own my soul, but I'm not your fucking pet!" Alastor chuckled. "But you are! Haha!" He then tried to leave to join back with the tour. "Big talk for someone who's also on a leash." Husk whispered loud enough for Alastor to hear. Now this was confusing to (Y/n). She didn't know what Husk was talking about. Alastor halts when he hears that. His eyes turned into radio dials as the lights flickered. He looked over at Husk. "Aha, what did you say?"

Suddenly, a green glowing chain wrapped around Husk's neck as he was pulled down by force. He realized what he had done. "Fuck! Nothing! I, uhm..." Husk couldn't respond as the chain was pulled tighter. (Y/n) gasped at the sight. She had never seen Alastor do this to one of their friends. Alastor walks back as he wraps the chain around his microphone staff. "If you ever say that again, I will tear your soul apart and broadcast your screams for every other disrespectful wretch who dares to question me!" Alastor threatened. Husk shivers in fear. "Understood." Then the lights turned back to normal as Alastor smiled. "Lovely."

"Alastor!" Suddenly, (Y/n) appears in front of Husk as she glares at him. This surprised the two adults. "(Y/n), what are you-?" Alastor was cut off. "WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU!!!" She hissed at her master. She kneels to help Husk up. "Young lady, don't you ever raise your voice at me again!!!" Alastor scold. "Or what?! You're gonna abandon me again?!" Alastor's eyes widen. From the sound of it, he knew that (Y/n) heard everything. "(Y/n), I-" Alastor tried to reach out, but she moved away from him. "Why don't you go hang with Charlie!? You seem to like her company anyway!" With that (Y/n) helps Husk walk back to the bar, leaving Alastor alone. He sighs in defeat, knowing he might have messed up.

Back on the tour, Vaggie was taking her turn explaining more about the hotel's role in redeeming demons so they can go to Heaven. She then mentioned Angel about his process. "And we've been able to find almost all of Angel Dust's drug stashed... almost." She explained. "So, once that's out of the way, it should be much smoother sailing!" Charlie added. Lucifer walks towards the railing. "Well that certainly is, uhh... is something."

"So, what do you think?" Charlie's waited for his answer. "About what?" Lucifer was confused. "The Hotel." Charlie answered. "Oh! Yes! It does look much better now, doesn't it?" Lucifer chuckled. "But you know, I think this railing needs work, one good push and you'd just go right over the edge! Whoopie! Bye bye!" He jokes around. "What? No, no, the plan, Dad! What do you think about the plan of using the hotel to help sinners?" Charlie clarifies with a frustrated tone. Lucifer takes a deep breath in before he exhales. "Alright, I mean, look, I love that you want to see the best in people, these sinners, you know, they're just the worst. I don't know how much you can realistically expect from them, and Heaven?" He adjusts his collar. "Hohooo boy, Heaven, is not exactly as carefree as you might think. They have rules, lots of rules, and they aren't very open-minded as you'd hope."
