Chapter 4: Heck's Funniest Videos

Our second suspect is: Verosika Mayday

We didn't have to travel long to go see our next suspect. Turns out her office is right in front of IMP across the hall. Charlie and Vaggie urged all of us to stay close. They said something about succubi being... grabby or something.

With anticipation filling the air, the group makes their way across the hall to Verosika Mayday's rented office space which was like a recording studio for musicians and singers.

It wasn't long before they heard chatter and laughter spilling out from the recording studio, hinting at the lively atmosphere within.

The room is filled with, recording equipment, and a stage setup for impromptu performances.

Verosika Mayday was a pink succubus, a tall one. She had black tipped horns, the left one is taller than the right, and a barbed tail with a black end along with two black stars on the side of her horns, and a black heart under her right eye, and white long hair with pink streaks to match the pink fur coat she's wearing. She is also wearing a small white and black dress with an X and O design on the chest, and a star design on the abdomen, and long black thigh highs with black high heels that have a heart motif and three X-shaped cutouts down the sides. She is also wearing a pair of round shades with pink hearts on the lenses.

Verosika, surrounded by her fellow succubi, exuded a sense of confidence and haughtiness.

Seeing them, Verosika smirks her voice dripping with a honeyed tone as she addresses the group. "Look what the nag dragged in. A bunch of misfits and monsters. How quaint."

Beth rolls her eyes at Verosika's condescending tone, muttering under her breath. "Ugh, I hate her already."

Zaira, Theo, and Ickis exchange nervous glances, unsure of how to navigate this encounter. They try their best to remain composed, eager to conduct the interview and gather any information they can about the dragonballs.

Charlie diffuses the situation, as she says, "Sorry for the intrusion and interruption, Verosika. But my friends request an audience with you for a brief moment."

"Surprised to see you here princess, taking a break from your hotel?" Verosika questions with a smirk.

Vaggie scowled and explained "Actually we're accompanying our friends here, to -"

Before anyone can say a word, Verosika's eyes land on Ickis, and her expression lights up. "Oh! Look at this cute widdle bunny rabbit! Such a sweet heart!"

"Not again." groaned Oblina slapping her forehead. This wasn't the first time Ickis was mistaken for rabbit.

UGH! How many times do I have to go through this!? Just because I got floppy ears! Am I going to have this problem with the other suspects??!

"A bunny rabbit?!" Ickis says in frustration. He clenched his fists, his eyes turning red – this was sign that he was threatening to loom with his voice filled with annoyance. "For the last time, I am NOT -" He didn't have a chance to retort.

Because the other succubi, caught up in the moment, gather around Ickis, cooing and fawning over him. They excitedly get closer to him, wanting to pet and cuddle the "adorable" bunny. They pinch his cheeks, ruffle his fuzzy fur, and even attempt to put a bow on his head, much to his humiliation.

"Does this usually happen?" inquires Charlie to the group in surprise.

"More than once whenever he tries scaring." said Krumm.
