(A couple of things I want to discuss. One Roo is not in this story but why do I feel like the scarlet king and her would be an amazing couple. Two scarlet will have seven main forms but each of the forms can go through variations like how the sins forms change a bit when they grow or shrink. We already know four of the forms. Those being SK(The DA/TFDA) , Scarlet King, Scarlet Demon, and Scarlet. The ones we have yet to see is Scarlet Wraith, Scarlet Knight, King Scarlet (larger form of the Scarlet Knight and different look))
————————————————————————
SK was walking down the road on his way to the hotel, trying his best to not let the "stealthy" drone following him annoy him and make him drop his persona.
SK: "Not yet, it is not time to reveal myself yet that would be so disappointing."
SK decided that he would cause a small electrical surge causing the drone to drop for a bit just to mess with the V's.
————————————————————————
In the V's basement.
Vox: What the FUCK was that?!
Valentino looked up from his phone.
Val: What's the problem? It just glitched a bit.
Vox: What's the problem? The problem is that if our tech malfunctions then we have to recall the line and not only will we loose money, we will loose credibility as well power. Not to mention we strive to show perfection and it will be seen as weakness if we make it anything but. Now I have to recall the drone and finger out what's wrong with it, this is just wonderful, hehe, ₣Ʉ₵₭ ₥Ɏ Ⱡł₣Ɇ.
————————————————————————
Back with SK he smiled inwardly as he saw the felt the drone leave not to mention him knowing the frustrations that he just caused Vox as well as the future insanity Vox would delve to as he tried to figure out what went wrong.
SK: "That should teach him for trying to spy on people who have more power than him especially an elder...Aw shit."
He was so preoccupied with the drone he failed to notice the shadow entity that was also watching him. Just as he noticed it took off in the direction of the hotel while he did not catch much of the shadow he did noticed that it had...
SK: "Antlers. Great just Great. Now I have to find some way to convince Alastor to back off without our right reviling myself. Me be dammed, I really am rusty. Well nothing like a true bit of wordplay with a mortal man in order to train my senses, that is, until I can face something bigger, like another young god in another universe. Besides, it's been a few decades, or has it been century's, since I played "The TFDA". It will definitely be fun to view what the mortals are run by now a-days."
SK continues walking, getting close for the hotel, now actually consecrating on seeing if anything is spying on him and he can't see or feel anything but until he can start sensing any enemy threat absent mindedly.
SK: "Speaking which it might be high time I spoke with Big M again I haven't talked to him directly in over a year he might think I'm mad at him.(SK chuckles) Such a funny little mortal. Anyway seems like I'm here."
SK stood in front of the door and prepared to knock but hesitated a moment.
SK: (growls a bit, his teeth elongating and sharpening ever slightly)"I hate social interactions I still find it easier to rip someone's spine out and hang them with it, than it is to have a conversation without getting frustrated. At the very least it is getting easier and better. Not to mention I don't find them nearly as annoying as they were, at least in general for the ones I have interacted with."
As SK is about to knock as he noticed that Emily was approaching the door and decided to have some fun with her. As Emily opens the door she is looking down  at a clipboard for things that must be taken care of She fails to notice SK a few inches ahead of her.
Emily: ..Check, Feed fat nuggets for Angel Dust while he's at work, Check, Round up all of the eggbois for Mr Pen..OOF!
Emily takes a few seconds to relish where she was.
Emily: "What did I hit, it felt like I flew into a brick wall"
As Emily looked around, she finally spotted SK
She was confused at first deciding that it was just due to her being surprised. After all, there was no way that hitting someone as thin as him would make her feel like what she felt when she hit him. She shook her head
Emily: SK! ( She rushes forward surprising SK with a hug) It is good to see you again.
SK: (I am glad I am sedated right now thanks to the drink, otherwise she might be missing her head right now and she seems such a sweet little angel. It is disgusting . I'm glad I didn't bite her.) Emily, what surprise. ( he says while hugging her back, resisting the thought to crush her.) ("No bad thought's she is an ally we do not crush allies.") I've only been gone for two days.
Emily: I know, It's just your not like Alastor, who can take care of himself, or Angel, who, while Valentino is a jerk, (SK: "That's one word for him") he still won't let anything happen to Angel without his approval. And you are not even under our protection as you are not a patron. So I am worried for my friend's health.
SK: You consider me a friend?
Emily: Yeah, I do. (She suddenly blushes) As long as that is alright with you.
SK: (Nods) I would be honored to be your friend however your worry, while appreciated, is not needed. I'm stronger than I look (He says then flexes his arms)
Emily laughs and rolled her eyes.
Emily: Alright Mr. Tough Guy get in here before you break something.
She says while holding the door open for him
SK: "If only you knew"
SK walks in but before they start on anything Alastor appears out of nowhere.
Alastor: Pardon me Dear but could I possibly borrow our most entertaining friend here.
SK: "Our?"
Emily looks between the two
Emily: Ok I don't see a reason why not.
Alastor and SK move off into a hallway on the upper floors.
Alastor: We'll my friend you have certainly been working your way in here though I can't say I'm not happy with the help.
SK: Then what is this about Alastor. (He says while leaning into a wall.
Alastors smile goes wider for a few seconds as he is surprised at the back talking.
Alastor: Well as my informant told me it seems that you noticed you were being followed by the drone that mediocre podcast sent out. What I want to know is how you noticed it. Most just never seem to notice them.
SK: Well once you are in hell long enough, and been through what I've been through, you learn to notice the little things.
Alastor: And what have you been through.
SK: That my friend are my secrets to keep and shall not be revealed yet.
Alastor: And will any of these secrets become ₱ⱤØ฿ⱠɆ₥₳₮ł₵.
SK: I can guarantee that no action I have done will harm the reputation of the hotel and I can say that no secret I keep will harm the residents of the hotel.
Alastor stares at SK for a moment and squinted then backed off
Alastor: Fair enough, now if you excuse me I have a meeting with a friend to attend.
As they both walk in separate directions, SK suddenly stops
SK: And Al,
Alastor: Hmm.
SK: All of us have their own chains, some more real than others.
Then SK departs and meets back up with Emily to continue to help out the hotel, Leaving Alastor standing in the hall questioning a lot of things but deciding not to bother about it yet.
