The PuppetMaster: A Hazbin Hotel/Helluva Boss Story

Chapter 7: Puppet Tales

A/N: Mikey's VA is the Puppet from EthGoesBOOM in his Regular Form, and Mark Oliver, in his Demon Form. I'm also thinking about adding recaps and a theme song. Tell me in the comments whether I should or shouldn't.

Today's scene opens on the Camping Crew who all just finished packing their supplies.

Mikey: So, on a scale of One to Ten, how do you guys rate this camping trip.

Charlie: Eight, it was good really! But, I'd much rather not accidentally get high again.

Vaggie: Six, do NOT want to get mauled over and over, EVER again.

Mikey: *shrugs* Hey, we TRIED to warn you, but you didn't listen.

Angel Dust: Ten, Pops never took me and my sibs camping before.

Millie: Seven, probably would have been better if there was more wrestlin'.

Moxxie: Honey, you think everything should have wrestling, I for one give it a seven becasue while my boss WAS better behaved than other times, I was hoping NOT to see him. Mostly because of how many times he's followed us before.

Niffty: Eight, I wanted to find new bugs to make into puppets. *giggles*

Clara: Ten, the pirate adventure was great!

Odette: I'm with my sister, it was rather fun.

Carmilla: Which I am glad you two did, but *to Mikey* to be perfectly honest, nearly anything you did which I saw or participated in will be better then your "flying lessons".

Vaggie: Flying lessons?

Mikey: *quietly* Oh God, she's bringing that up again. *out loud* It sounded like a good idea at the time, Carmilla!

Carmilla: Have you STILL not any idea how much damage was caused?!

Mikey: Of course I do, you kept reminding me for weeks.

Angel Dust: Uhhh, whaddya talking about?

The two Overlords then looked back at the others who most looked confused about what they were talking about while they were starting to make their way back to Pentagram City.

Mikey: Well Angel, this is actually a pretty funny story involving me, *picks up Annie* this little one, and *gestures to Carmilla* Senorita Stick-Up-Her-Ass.

Carmilla: Pfft, says the reckless Idiota.

Mikey: And actually you should remember this one Angel you were there. *to the others* See, this all happened nine or so years ago, Annie was the only one who didn't figure out how to fly yet so...

---------------------------------------------------------

Mikey, Velvette and Annie were walking along to a tall and rickety-looking tower on the edge of Carmine's territory, accompanied by Husk.

Husk: So, why exactly are we doing this?

Mikey: Well, Annie still hasn't figured out how to fly, so we're acting upon an idea I had with a couple more of my friends meeting us there.

Husk: Mm-hm, but who's looking after the other munchkins?

Mikey: I got it covered.

By covered, he meant Verosika owed him a favour, so she and her posse were babysitting Leo, Quincy and June while he was out.

Annie: Oooohh, I can't wait to fly!

Velvette: Ooohh, *nuzzles Annie* me neither, poppet!

For a little backstory, ever since Mikey introduced his then-girlfriend to the Little Einsteins, she's loved them to the point where she considers herself their mother. And God forbid anyone touches them, lest she goes ax-crazy as Valentino figured out 2 weeks later.
