Chapter 3
"Y'know? 'Cause hotels are for people passin' through... temporarily..." Charlie said as she was starting to lose confidence. Nobody said anything. It was so uncontrollably silent in there that a tumbleweed passed through.
"I'm never getting out of here." Y/N thought.
"I think it'll serve a purpose... a place to work toward redemption... yay...!" Charlie said.
"Stupid bitch." The cameraman said. Vaggie wasted no time punching the man in the face.
"Look, every single one of you has something good, deep down inside. I know you do! ...Maybe I'm not getting through to you." Charlie said getting an idea. Razzle and Dazzle were alerted that Charlie was about to sing and that she may need their back-up vocals.
"Oh no..." Vaggie said as she face palmed. Y/N actually got excited and sat down to listen to Charlie sing. Charlie snapped her fingers and the room turned dark. A spotlight shinned over a piano that Charlie, Razzle and Dazzle start performing on.
"Where did that come from?" Y/N asked.
[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]
Charlie ended the song, rather exhausted as everyone in the news station looked at her with disgust and disbelief. Y/N just clapped. But slowly stopped when demons started giving him hate filled and creepy as heck looks.
"Wow! That was shit!" A grey, cartoon demon said. Everyone in the audience including Killjoy and Tommy Trench begin to laugh at Charlie. Charlie was both crushed and devastated by this. She slumped back down to her seat. There was even a boo section in the news room and the demons looked uninterested.
Y/N wanted to cheer, but was too afraid of what would happen to him if he did.
"What in the Nine Circles makes you think a single denizen of Hell would give two shits about becoming a better person?! You have no proof that this little experiment even works! You want people to be good?! Just... because?!" Kate Killjoy said as she was trying to control her laughing.
"Well, we have a patron already, who believes in our cause and he's shown incredible progress!" Charlie said in defense.
"Oh? And who might that be?" Kate Killjoy said with a small hint a shock.
"Oh, just someone named... Angel Dust!" Charlie said as she tried to look smug and confident.
"The porn star?" Tommy Trench asked.
"Y-yes. White fur. Golden tooth. Heart on his chest. At least I think it's a heart." Y/N said.
"Yep. That's Angel Dust alright." Tommy Trench said to Y/N, as Katie Killjoy examined Y/N and smirked, while giving him a lustful look. Y/N noticed and gulped nervously.
"In any case, that's not even an accomplishment. I'm sure you could get that hooker to do anything with enough booger sugar and lube." Kate Killjoy said.
"Oh, I beg to differ! He's been behaved, clean, and out of trouble for two weeks now. Just ask Y/N, he's been watching after Angel Dust!" Charlie said as she began to count on her fingers. Y/N nervously nodded his head.
Unfortunately, Charlie's triumph was cut short.
"Breaking News!" Someone in the news staff called to Katie Killjoy. Katie quickly shoved Charlie off her desk.
"We are receiving word that a new player has entered the ongoing turf war! Let's go to the live feed." Kate Killjoy said. The live feed showed Angel Dust stepping on an Egg Boi and throwing a grenade over at Sir Pentious with laughter in the background. Charlie stared at the screen in defeat.
"Oh, shit." Charlie said as Y/N covered his face with his hands.
"For my kids entire lives. I'll be gone." Y/N thought sadly to himself.
""Oh, shit" indeed! It looks like the one who just joined the battle is none other than porn actor, Angel Dust! What a juicy coincidence! You must feel really stupid right now." Katie Killjoy said to Charlie.
"Ratings!" Katie and Tom said and did jazz hands.
"W-what do we do?!" Y/N asked Charlie and Vaggie in a bit of a panic.
Charlie stared at the live feed in distress and attempted to block it from the audience's view. But failed. "Don't look at this!" Charlie said to the audience.
"Well, it sure looks like your little project is dead on arrival. Tell us, how does it feel to be a total failure?" Katie asked as she loomed over Charlie.
Charlie tried to think of a way to get back at her. She looked around and picked up Katie's pen. "Yeah, well...How does it feel that I got your pen, huh?! ...Bitch!" Charlie said. Everybody instantly stopped laughing while Katie Killjoy gave Charlie a death glare.
"Ehehe... oops." Charlie said nervously. She quickly put the pen down.
Kate Killjoy turned into her demonic and she loomed over Charlie from the shadows. Y/N gulped and hid behind Vaggie.
Later.
The royal family limousine was driving Charlie, Vaggie, Y/N, and Angel Dust back to the hotel. Charlie was hugging her knees and looking out the window while her jacket is ruined after Katie Killjoy attacked her, while Vaggie sat between her and Y/N, glaring furiously at Angel Dust.
Angel Dust was amusing himself by playing with the car window roller repeatedly. He looked at Vaggie and noticed her hate filled glare.
"What?" He asked.
"What?", "WHAT?!" What were you DOING?!" Vaggie snapped. Y/N jumped back a bit. He gulped nervously and looked at her.
"I owed my girl buddy a solid! Isn't that a "redeeming quality"? Helping friends with stuff?" Angel Dust said.
"Well, yes. To a certain extent." Y/N said.
"Yah! That certain extent is turf wars that result in territorial genocide!" Vaggie said angrily.
"Eh, you win some, you lose a few hundred. Ehahahahahah!" Angel Dust laughed. " It wasn't that bad, anyway." He said as he continued to play with the button of the car window roller.
Y/N looked at Vaggie nervously and proceeded to start rubbing her shoulders. She gasped and bit her lips.
"W-what are you doing?" She asked him.
"I've been told that this is a way to calm down upset people." Y/N said.
"Well it is not AH! Oh shit. Oh now that hit the spot." Vaggie said as she laid against Y/N and relaxed as he was rubbing her shoulder. She seemed relaxed now.
"Hey Y/N? Mind giving me a rub down later~?" Angel Dust asked with a smirk. Y/N blushed and Vaggie shot Angel Dust a glare.
"Really? Your gonna ask that after what you did today?!" Vaggie said to Angel Dust.
"Aw, come on! I had to! My credibility is on the line! I mean, what kind of reputation would I have if people found out I was tryna go clean? It just throws out my entire persona!" Angel Dust said. Y/N sighed as he watched. He laid back and watched the building's pass by. He had been in Hell for quite some time now. He had failed to count the days. Keeping time in Hell wasn't as easy as one would think.
He laid his head on Vaggie's shoulder and snuggled up with her.
Meanwhile in the real world.
Five year old Ruby sat by the window and looked up at the night sky. She was doing what she normally did on some nights, waited for Y/N to come back.
Ai Hoshino watched her daughter sadly. Y/N wasn't coming back, at least she didn't think he was coming back. She wasn't fully sure how the devils deal worked.
She was making a cup of tea. Kaori, Y/N's other girlfriend, was coming over. The two had become good friends since they both started dating Y/N. Both were the same age, both loved music, both loved Y/N, and Y/N made a deal with the devil to save them both.
Al walked to her daughter and picked her up gently.
"What are you doing sweetie?" She asked her daughter.
"Waiting for daddy." Ruby said. Al looked at her daughter sadly. She rubbed her cheek and lightly kissed her forehead.
"Come on sweetie. Let's go to bed. It's your bedtime anyway." Al said as she carried her to her bedroom. Ruby's twin brother, Elroy, was sleeping in his bed. He and Ruby shared a room. She tucked her daughter into bed gently and lightly kissed her on the forehead.
"Mama? Will daddy come back?" Ruby asked. Al wished she had the answer to that. She wanted to tell her daughter that he will return eventually. She didn't know what eventually meant, but it sounded like a really long time.
"Eventually." She said and closed the door. Once she closed it, she began to cry. She felt guilty about's Y/N's situation. It was her life that he signed to save.
"Y/N, I am so sorry." She cried softly before she was interrupted by a knock on the door. She wiped away her tears. Her phone went off and she checked it. After she returned of death, she moved her kids somewhere safer and installed the Ring security system. She checked her phone, Kaori was at the door. She took a breath and walked to the door. She opened it up and saw Kaori.
"Hey Al." Kaori said. Both of them were not sure what they were supposed to say to each other. Things had been a little uncomfortable between them since Y/N was dragged to hell by Lucifer and they found out about the deal the two made. Al and Koari were at each other's throats and blaming each other for what happened to Y/N. Despite the fact that the deal was made to save both of them.
Both of them sat down at the kitchen table and Al got the tea. Both women remained silent, before Al finally brought up the topic they got together for.
"Did you or your parents find a way to get Y/N out of the contract? Anything at all that might get him back?" Al asked her.
"No. I'm sorry but we didn't. We looked and read all over. There's nothing in there. No loopholes, no exit clause, no anything. It's air tight. The only way out of the contract is when Y/N finish's his task by Lucifer." Kaori said sadly. She hated that they couldn't find anything to save Y/N. He had already done so much for them. He had made a deal with the devil to save them.
"Dammit!" Al said as she slammed her fist in the table. Kaori looked back at the contract. When Lucifer took Y/N, he left the girls the contract.
