An Angel and an Bee

Chapter 5: frenemies

Charlie was pacing around the lobby,clearly panicking. "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 out timetable in half,but who needs a whole year to save souls,am I right?!" Charlie's panicking increased. "And next time when they cut the time in half again,and again,we'll just handle,right?!"

"Yes. We will." Vaggie said,holding Charlie by her shoulders to calm her down.

"Oh please,ya had less than half a chance when you started all the salvation bullshit. And now,ain't no silver lining this time toots. Angel said,his phone being spammed by Valentino.

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

"Well,while you're lookin',the rest'a hell's goin' nuts." Angel said,showing his phone to both Vaggie and Charlie. "People are already freakin' out about the news. Look at what's happenin' in the doomsday district." Angel said. Then a text notification went off on his phone,which was still facing Charlie.

"Err...what is a donkey show?" Charlie questioned before Angel quickly retracted his phone.

"Aah,heh,nothin'. My boss Val is just freaked out about the news too. Like I said,everyone's losin' their shit." Angel said.

"Yeah,that's true. Sinners are desperate. Maybe desperate enough to try anything to escape the extermination?" Vaggie suggested.

Charlie gasped "This is the perfect time to recruit more sinners for the hotel!"

"Stupid idea,do you wanna go out in this?" Bumble said,showing Vaggie and Charlie a video of a place on fire and sinners panicking.

"Well,it's not like people are just gonna show up on our doorstep-AH" Charlie screamed as a massive explosion went off behind her. The explosion was caused by sir pentious. Everyone went outside,except for Bumble who sat on the now destroyed wall and lit a cigarette. Watching shit go down.

"Show yourself Alasssstor! Come and face-" Sir Pentious said but paused,searching for Alastor. Then he spotted him on the balcony on the second floor,sipping coffee. "Oh,there you are." Pentious said before continuing, "Face my wrath!"

"Who are you?" Alastor asked.

"Who am I? Who am I?! I am the great Ssssssir Pentiousssss!" Pentious said while Alastor teleported from the shadows from the balcony to where Angel,Vaggie,and Charlie was. Sir Pentious continued. "Inventor,architect of dessstruction, villain extraordinaire!"

Suddenly Niffty appeared on Alastors right shoulder,intrigued by Sir Pentious. "Ooooooh,he's a bad boy~" She said.

Alastor grabbed niffty and put her on the ground. "Ha,well if all that's true,you'd think I'd have heard of you."

"I attacked you literally last week."

Alastor cocked his head to the side in confusion.

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

"Well,you must have been really bad at this." Alastor said.

"Silence! Now cowering! For when I've ssslsin you,the almighty Vees will finally acknowledge me as their equal." Sir Pentious exclaimed.

Niffty reappeared on Alastors shoulder. "Ooh! Wait,who are the Vees?" She questioned.

"Oh,nobody important." Alastor said.

~~~~~Meanwhile at the Vee tower~~~~

Vox was in his office,surrounded by screens showing off all the people who have his products and showing their consumerism. "Muhahaha! Now that's good television!" He said,before his tv face turns into an incoming call from Velvette. Vox pulls the call from his face to another screen to accept the call.
