The Morningstar Hotel (Hazbin Hotel Au)

a new soul

Voxs pov

It all happened so fast, in the blink of an eye I was decintagrated. I thought I was dead for sure but then I found myself in a white room with two men looking down at me in disbelief.

"Um hi" I waved nervously. Where the heck am I?

"It worked" the taller one muttered in disbelief.

"It worked!" The smaller one flew up to me excitedly "hi my name's azreal. It is such an honour to meet you. Welcome to heaven"

"H-heaven!" I spun around in disbelief.

Azreal's smile only grew in size "what's it like in hell? Is it as bad as they say? And how did you get redeemed?"

"I'm not sure" I muttered, slightly put off by the boys enfusiasum "all I remember is dying while saving a friend"

"A pure act of self sacrifice cleansed your soul, as if you were born anew. Oh I love happy endings" he hugged me tightly "if you could get redeemed then maybe there's hope for the others too"

"Azreal let's not get carried away" the taller one said sternly.

"But raphy don't you see. This proves Lucifer's theory is correct" he said excitedly "this could change everything!"

"Precisely my point" he summoned a guard "have this one thrown in a prison cell. Make sure his existence is knowledge to no one"

"Yes sir" he nodded as he grabbed me.

"Wait! You can't arrest him, he's done nothing wrong" azreal protested.

"May I remind you that Michael is dead thanks to his little gang" Raphael growled.

"That's-" azreal faltered. I watched helplessly as I was dragged away.

*Time skip*

I paced around the cell in annoyance. Great, just great! I was supposed to get my big break as a news reporter, now I'm rotting in a prison cell.

"Just my luck" I sighed as I leaned against the bars.

"So you're the one all the higher-ups are talking about" I looked down to see a teenage girl with a pixie cut and blue eyeshadow. Is this the angel version of an emo phase?

"Uh hey kid. I thought no one was supposed to know about me" I rubbed my arm.

"I was born a seraphim so I get special privileges to certain knowledge. I wasn't supposed to come down and see you but I don't pay attention to the rules. I prefer to make up my own" she said proudly.

"That's definitely something you want to hear from an angel" I muttered.

"Soooo what's it like down there. I want to hear every little detail" she leaned forward expectingly.

"Uhh-"

"Emily Sera's looking for you" azreal appeared behind her.

"Oh crap" she cursed "don't tell her I'm here ok old man"

"Your secrets safe with me" he winked at her.

"Thanks your the best" she said greatfully as she ran away.

He turned back to me "so what's your name"

"Vox"

"It's nice to meet you vox. I wish we could have gotten to know each other under better circumstances" he smiled sadly.

"It's not your fault" I sighed as I sat down on the bench "so was Michael important to you?"

"He was my big brother" he replied.

"Oh shit!" I gasped "wait so that means Lucifer-"

"Is also my big brother" he smiled softly "I never got the chance to grow up with him but he's really impressive. I've never seen someone fight so hard for something no one else believes in"

"Yeah he's something" I smiled "I see a lot of him in you"

"I'll take that as a compliment" he giggled. Suddenly he gave me a serious look "vox I'm going to do my best to convince Raphael to let you go. You don't deserve to be locked up here"

"You want to help me? Even though we got your brother killed?" I muttered in disbelief.

"Like I said I love happy endings. Besides I get the feeling he's not really dead. You got here for dying doing good deeds. Maybe the opposite is true" he smiled mysteriously "anyway hold on tight ok. I'll win your freedom in no time!" With that he disappeared, leaving me alone in a dark cell.
