The woman looked down at the trash she was piercing with her spike,

"Charlie!! When can we stop? we've been out here for hours!" Angeldust moaned as he held four spikes, one for each arm.

"Angel, we need to keep working" Charlie replied, not doing any work at all. Vag whipped the ground where Angeldust stood.

"Work faster." She spat out at him

"Jesus christ this is literally slave labor..." the woman said in response to Vag's actions. After she spoke back to Vag, she also had the ground surrounding her whipped.

"Work faster or I'm going to nae nae." Vaggie said looking down on the spider furry and black haired woman. The two of them groaned before getting back to work.

"You guys need to have more work ethic. It's the key to redemption." Charlie said again. After a few more minutes of working, they finished up.

"Can we go now?" Angeldust said looking back at the road.

The woman didn't even bother asking, she just got back into the bus, the putrid odor filling her senses.

"I'm going to go." Angeldust said. Following the woman to re-enter the bus. Charlie didn't get a chance to stop them, but it didn't matter when she saw the street, it was clean. She re-entered the bus that already contained the woman, angel and somehow alastor was already in there despite never directly entering the bus. Charlie brushed it off and got into the driver's seat of the bus and started to head back to the hotel.

The woman looked out the window, while next to Angeldust.

"So, whatcha here for?" Angeldust asked her, she turned her head to face him.

"Redemption. Why else would I be here?" She said in a defensive manner.

"What i meant was- Why do you want to get clean?" She looked at him, trying to think of a reason.

"The same reason anyone else would want to be here- I want to get out of hell." Her statement wasn't the entire truth but it wasn't a lie either. Angeldust paused for a minute.

"Why are you here?" She asked.

"Well. This is like rehab, I'm kind of addicted to methamphetamines"

The woman cracked up.

"Why would a demon need rehab for that?"

"Meth gives me a rash." He said with a frown. "It gives me a rash on... my... y'know." The woman understood and just slowly nodded before going back to looking out the window. The two of them sat in silence for a bit before Angel finally asked.

"Y'know, I never caught ya name." She turned to him,

"My name is Yanny." She said in response.

"Yanny?" He asked in a confirming tone. She nodded again before going back to avoiding a conversation with him.

"We're here everyone!" Charlie called out across the bus. Angel skuttered out of the bus and Yanny followed behind. Alastor not far behind her. Angeldust rushed into the bar where Husk resided.

"You got any liquor?" Angeldust said with a grin across his face. Husk slammed a bottle down on the bar table top for Angel.

"Thanks suga" Angel said before taking a large drink out of the bottle. Yanny walked into the bar area.

"Got any Smirnoff?" Yanny said before also receiving a large bottle to drink from. She took a swig from the bottle, the alcohol giving a warm sensation to the back of her throat. Alastor also entered the room.

"Yanny, Remember when I said, I have a game I wanna show you?" Alastor asked, Yanny didn't recall telling Alastor her name but she brushed it off.

"Y-yeah?" She said with hesitance.

"Well the game was a drinking game." He replied.

"Do you want to play?" Yanny looked to Angeldust then back to Alastor.

"Sure. Why not." She smirked.

"Perfect. Let's start!"

"Wait- what are the rules?"

"Oh of course! The rules! Here are the rules, We ask each other questions, and if you lie. You drink." The rules seemed simple enough and appealing enough for Yanny to play, but Angel spoke up.

"Well, how will we know if we're lying?"

"Oh. I always know." Alastor replied as a cryptic response to Angeldust.

"Ok well let's start!" Alastor announced.

"Yanny, Why are you really here?" Yanny was caught off guard by all of Alastor's actions so far. She assumed he had overheard Her's and Angel's conversation from earlier.

"I came here for redemption. I want to get out of hell." Alastor cocked his head.

"Why else?" Yanny didn't want to answer so she just took a drink of her Smirnoff and continued the game.

"Angeldust. How big is your meth rash?" Yanny questioned.

"About an inch." Alastor laughed.

"Stop lying!" Angeldust just drank his booze and then asked Alastor a question.

"What's your favorite color?" Angeldust asked, wasting his question.

"Brown, like coffee." The game continued on for a while before everyone was completely hammered and decided to call it a night.
