"The Devil's Casino..." I looked up.

"You know this place too?" I nodded at Elsa.

"We should just keep this quiet and play along like we're new here." Elsa told.

"Alright." I walked and saw a man with a dice for a head.

"King Dice..." I said in my head.

"Hello, ladies and gentleman. Welcome the Devil's Casino!" I blushed a little.

"T-Thanks." I entered in with Cuphead and Mugman.

"This place is amazing than I imagined." I whispered.

"It sure is." Elsa jumps onto one of the slot machines.

"I gotta say miss, you're seem to be beautiful like a star." King Dice said, gently grabbing her hand, kissing it.

"T-T-Thanks." I stammered.

Elsa looks over and sees Cuphead and Mugman at the Craps Table, having winning streak.

"Whoa!" I ran to Cuphead and Mugman.

"Hot dawg!" exclaimed King Dice. 

Elsa jumps onto my shoulder.

"These fellas can't lose!" I smiled, watching until I hear someone coming out.

"Nice run boys." I gasped, recognizing him.

"The Devil..." I said in my head.

"How about we raise the stakes. If you win then all the loot of the casino your's. If you lose...Your souls will belong to me." Cuphead snatches the dice throws it. 

"Good gosh, Cuphead! No!" I gasped covering my mouth which me and Mugman understood the danger. The dice landed on both one's. The Devil laughs evilly.

"Snakes eyes! You lost! Now about those souls.." Cuphead and Mugman got down on their knees, begging for the Devil for their Mercy. Me and my incubator, Elsa got in front.

"There must be another way to repay you!" Mugman stammered.

"Y-Yes please!" I walked to the Devil

"Please there must be something." I told.

"Hm, perhaps there is a way. Some debtors have contracts. Bring the contracts to me and I'll let you go." I looked at the parchment that the Devil is holding.

"Contracts you say huh? I'll help them out." Elsa looks at me.

"Sonja, what are you doing?" I winked at her.

"Trust me." King Dice looks at her in confusion.

"Devil, if I help out the boys. I'll give you something temporally." I told.

"And what is that, your soul?" asked the Devil.

"No, my voice." King Dice gasps from what I said.

"D-Darling, you gotta be joking." I looked at him.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine." I reassured. The Devil creates a barrier around himself and me. He makes ghost like hands.

"Sing for me." I started vocalizing which my throat is glowing in a light blue color.

"That's it! Keep singing!" The ghost hands come close to me which one enters my throat, pulling out a light blue glowing orb which it's my voice. I put my hand on my throat. My voice goes inside a bottle and the barrier disappears.

"There, the deal is done. Now get going!" The Devil kicks out Cuphead and Mugman. I went out of the casino.

"You have til midnight tomorrow to collect those souls. Otherwise I'll be collecting yours! Oh and miss, you'll get your voice back once you get the contracts." The Devil slams the doors.

"Sonja, what we're you thinking?!" Elsa yelled.

I tried to speak but no sound came out.

"Oh, Sonja..." Elsa nuzzles against me.

I rubbed my head, reassuring her that I'll be okay.

Cuphead grabs onto my hand, running.

"Come on, guys!" panted Cuphead.

"We'll have to find Elder Kettle and tell him about our visitors!" I looked at the boys.

"Don't worry, he's nice!" Mugman told.

"He'll know what to do!" Elsa looks down in sadness.

"My poor girl...Without her voice she won't speak. At least she has her Soul Gem and they didn't know that her soul is actually her gem."

(I hope you like it and I don't own anything.)
