Wings | A HuskerDust Story (Hazbin Hotel AU!)

Chapter 4

The morning after the unsettling events, the Hotel was very quiet, very different from its normal noisy self. Angel stayed in his room.

The place where everyone usually hangs out and laughs was now quiet. Everyone looked worried. Charlie and Vaggie didn't say anything, but they looked stressed because they didn't know how to help Angel.

Husk was at the bar, cleaning the same spot over and over, thinking about Angel. Remembering Angel crying made him feel anxious. Even though Husk is usually calm, he now felt bad. "I should have done more," he said to himself quietly, feeling like he failed because he couldn't make Angel feel better.

It was Sir Pentious who broke the quiet, his voice slicing through the tension. "We can't just sit around and do nothing," he insisted, standing up. "Angel is one of us. We need to find a way to help him, to show him he's not alone in this."

"I agree with Sir Pentious. We can't make Angel talk, but we can check on him. We need to show him we're here and that we care," Charlie said, sounding strong but kind.

"Maybe we can bring him his favorite snack or something. Just to show him we're thinking about him," Vaggie suggested, thinking practically.

"I'll come too," Husk added. "Angel might not want to talk, but he should know there are people who support him, no matter what."

They all went up to Angel's room, each carrying something small to show they cared. Charlie knocked gently at first, then louder. "Angel, it's us. We just want to talk and see how you're doing," she called out.

But there was no answer. The quiet made them worry more. "Angel, please, we're worried about you," Vaggie said, hoping Angel would hear and respond.

Still, there was no answer from Angel's room. Everyone looked worried, wondering if Angel was even there.

Husk decided to try. "Let me try," he said and knocked harder. "Angel, if you're there, we won't go until we know you're safe." Husk sounded really worried this time.

But there was still no sound from inside. They started to think maybe Angel wasn't in his room. This made everyone really anxious.

Charlie decided quickly. "We need to see if he's in there. Maybe he can't answer us." Thinking Angel might be in trouble made them act fast.

Charlie used a spare key to open the door. They saw the room empty. Angel's bed was messy, and the window was open with the curtains moving in the breeze.

They all realized at the same time – Angel had left through the window. "He's gone," said Husk, now really scared about what Angel might do alone.

They all knew they had to find Angel fast. "We need to find him quickly," Charlie said, getting everyone ready to look. "He could be anywhere, and he might not be thinking straight."

Feeling rushed, everyone split up, each choosing a different way to go. They hoped to find Angel before he went too far. Hell's streets are big and full of danger, but their friendship with Angel made them brave. They looked everywhere in the city for any sign of their friend.

After searching the vast and dangerous streets of Hell for hours, the residents of the Hazbin Hotel were exhausted. They called out for Angel and checked every possible hiding spot, but there was no sign of him. The city's dangers made their search even harder, and as the sun began to set, their hope started to fade.

Charlie gathered everyone together, her face showing her disappointment and concern. "We've done everything we can for now," she said, her voice heavy with fatigue. "It's getting late, and it's not safe to keep searching in the dark. We should head back to the hotel."
