The DOOM Hotel

The DOOM Hotel Part 7: A Deal With A Devil

The handshake was more firm than anything that Charlie had ever felt before, the Slayer's grip would not let up.

"Uhh can you, let go now?" Charlie asked.

"We warned you about what you may see." VEGA said.

Just then, Charlie's eyes rolled back into her head, tears began streaming from them. She began to see the Hell that the Slayer had come to purge. The walls were doused in blood, the sky was a burning red. Blazing pentagrams decorated the walls as they slowly infected Charlie's vision, the corners of her eyes almost covered in a red ash. She looked at the organs, the teeth, the flesh, the blood, the guts, she finally felt true fear. She saw the blazing pools of lava and fire beneath her, absorbing the souls of the damned, a large temple stood at the center of all of the carnage, of all of the gore.

"Come along Charlotte." VEGA said, appearing next to her with the Slayer, "Lead your friends with us." 

Just then, spires of fire arose behind her as Vaggie, Alastor, Angel, and Husk appear from them.

"What the fuck?!" Husk said, awoken from being blackout drunk after drinking everything in the bar

"Where are we? In Hell Part Two?" Vaggie said.

"Oh would you look at that he really did kill us all!" Angel said, "Is this where demons go when they die, doesn't look like I'll be getting any dick here."

"This," VEGA said, "Is what the Slayer had to show you, it is merely a small fraction of the Hell the Doom Slayer and I fight against."

"You're telling me that this massive area is only a small fraction of the Hell you fight?!" Charlie asked, "Why are we even being shown this?!"

"Because," VEGA said as the Slayer gestured his hand upwards and pointed at a large spire of flames and a red beam of light flared from the center of the temple, "That is what we are here to prevent from leaking into your dimension. That is what Lucifer is allowing into your Hell, pure argent energy that will allow demons to spawn in your Hell, tearing and destroying whatever is in it before assimilating the dimension whole."

"Does this mean that this could be the end of our Hell?" Charlie asked.

"Yes, Charlie, we must head back to your realm now. We must get ready for the planning phase of our-" VEGA said, stopping in the middle of his sentence, "I sense an increasing demonic presence approaching rapidly, Slayer."

The Slayer cracked his knuckles, loaded his guns, and revved his chainsaw.

"I will send you all back shortly, once the Slayer finishes his business." Heavy metal began blasting in the Slayer's helmet as he darted at blinding speeds towards the swarms of demons in his way. He began to tear through them with vigor and ferocity.

"Those demons are fucked aren't they?" Charlie asked.

"They'll be a red stain in minutes."

The Slayer slashed, shot, and stabbed his way through the demons, rip and tear were the only words echoing through his mind as he tore out the intestines of a Mancubus to use as a bone crushing and skin lacerating whip against other imps and zombies. He was finally having some fun after so long in that other boring Hell. A few mere minutes later mutilated corpses were strewn about, maimed limbs and organs lay split and slashed, pools of red blood sopping from them. As the Slayer walked back to the group, now blood soaked and covered in tendons and viscera.

"It is time to head back now, everyone." VEGA said, coldly.

They all stared, awestruck, and frozen in fear. Even Angel Dust couldn't make a joke about the situation. The Slayer put out his hand again, gesturing to Charlie. Charlie took it, and they were suddenness back in the other Hell. They all stood and stared at the Slayer as he walked out of the building.

"Me and the Slayer need to take care of some business. You all stay here and plan." VEGA said, the Slayer closing the door behind them.

"How am I half demon..." Charlie muttered, "...and still feel like I made a deal with the devil?"
