Hazbin Hotel

Radio Killed the Video Star

Charlie paces back and forth while Keekee walks alongside her.

"Okay. So the extermination is coming in six months instead of a year. No big deal. Just a little setback. Nothing we can't handle. Just angels cutting our timetable in half. But who needs a whole year to save souls? Am I right?! And next time when they cut the time in half again, and again, we'll just handle it, right?!"

Vaggie grabs Charlie, and attempts to calm her down, "yes. We will."

"Oh, please, ya had less then half a chance when you started all this salvation bullshit. And now..." Angel's phone vibrates, "ain't no silver lining this time toots." You elbow Angel and he gives you a 'what?' look.

"Sure there is! We just...have to look a little harder for it!" Charlie reassures.

"Well, while you're lookin', the rest'a hell's goin' nuts." Angel waves his phone in their faces. "People are already freakin' out about the news. Look at what's happenin' in the Doomsday District."

He scrolls down an article with the bottom showing a demon screaming in front of a fire. Suddenly a pink message appears. Charlie gets closer to read it.

"Err, what is a...Donkey Show?"

Angel panics and yanks his phone to his chest, "aah, heh, nothin'. My boss, Val, is just freaked out about the news too. Like I said, everyone's losin' their shit."

Vaggie's eyes light up, "yeah, that's true. Sinners are desperate. Maybe desperate enough to try anything to escape the extermination?" 

Charlie gasps, "this is the perfect time to recruit more sinners for the hotel!"

"Cute idea and all, but you really gonna go out in all of this?" Angel waves the phone with the place still on fire and demons in panic. 

Your phone begins to vibrate when Angel's stops, you look at it and see a long string of texts from Valentino, you look at them as you speak, "yeah, Angie's kinda got a point."

"Well, it's not like people are just gonna show up on our doorstep-"

Suddenly, a massive explosion made Charlie scream in surprise. The four of you turn to see a freshly made hole in the wall, to see Sir Pentious zeppelin armed for battle.

"Show yourself Alasssstor. Come and face-" Pentious pauses for a moment when he notices Alastor absent from the freshly made hole. He then looks to see him sipping coffee on the balcony of the second floor. "Oh there you are - Face my wrath!"

Alastor tilts his head, "who are you?"

"Who am I? Who am I?! I am the great Ssssssir Pentiousssss!"

Alastor dissolves into fog as he descends to the ground, materializing aside Angel, Vaggie, you, and Charlie who are in the scene watching Sir Pentious's zeppelin.

"Inventor, architect of dessstruction, villain extraordinaire!"

The Egg Bois encourage him, "ooh you tell 'em boss."

Niffty appears on Alastor's right shoulder, clearly starstruck, "ooooooh, he's a bad boy~."

Alastor scoops Niffty up and drops her to the ground, "ha, well if all that's true, you'd think I'd have heard of you."

"I attacked you literally last week." Sir Pentious reminds him.

Alastor cocks his head.

"We've done battle, like... 20 times."

Alastor grins widely, "well, you must have been really bad at this."

"Silence! Now cower! For when I've ssslain you, the almighty Vees will finally acknowledge me as their equal."
