HELLBØUND - Out For Love // S3 Episode 7

The episode begins with Vaggie, Niffty, Alastor, Angel Dust, Sir Pentious and Husk all sitting in the hotel's lounge.

Niffty: So, like where are your wings?

Vaggie: Niffty, I don't have-

Vaggie's sentence is cut off by Angel Dust.

Angel Dust: Did you ever think maybe she's sensitive about her lack of wings, just like her lack of tits?

Niffty tugs at Vaggie's shirt.

Niffty: Yeah. Where are your tits?

Vaggie sighs.

Vaggie: Any other questions?

Husk: I got one. How come every time Charlie talks to Heaven, we get in deeper and deeper shit?

Vaggie: It's not her fault. Or Y/N's. Angels are just-

Angel Dust: Liars?

Vaggie: ... difficult. But, Charlie's trying her best. And Y/N...

Husk: Yeah, well, their best is turning out real well so far.

Angel Dust: And where is miss fearless leader, anyway? Isn't it about time for another "doomed-to-fail" plan?

Vaggie: She's upstairs. Coming up with something, I'm sure, in our room. Alone. As for Y/N... He's preparing.

Blitzø: Preparing for what?

Vaggie: Before we returned, Y/N made a deal with Adam. A battle to start or end a war. If Y/N wins, the extermination ends. But, if Adam wins, Y/N will die and so will all of us.

Everyone: ... WHAT?!

Sinister music starts to play.

Alastor: Hmm.

Alastor vanishes into black smoke.

Angel Dust: Has Y/N lost his mind?!

Vaggie: I asked him the same thing, but he's dedicated to the deal.

Loona: Doesn't he know that he has a family and friends?

Vaggie: He does. That's why he made the deal. He's doing this for all of us.

Blitzø: I forbid it! Y/N has done so much for us all! He's the reason we're all here!

Millie: Yeah! If he dies, there's no telling what will happen.

Loona: Then, let's make sure it doesn't happen. We'll help him fight Adam.

Vaggie: I'm sorry, but we can't. Y/N made it clear he doesn't want anyone to assist him. He's all about fighting fair.

Husk: But, Y/N will die, anyway! Adam's-

Vaggie: Not going to pull anything as long as we're there to make sure nothing gets in the way of the fight. If I were you all, I'd pray for Y/N's victory.

Loona fell to the ground and slowly started to cry. Even the pups whimpered for Y/N in sadness. The scene changes showing Charlie in her bed under her covers softly crying. While Razzle and Dazzle comfort her with tissues. Alastor reappears in her room and approaches her bedside.

Alastor: Oh, Charlie, you look an absolute mess.

Charlie begins to appear annoyed.

Charlie: Ugh, go away, Alastor.

Alastor sits down on her bed while Charlie hides again under the covers

Alastor: Now, now, is that any way to act after picking a fight with all of Heaven and dooming everyone you love?

Charlie emerges from the covers.

Charlie: I have enough on my mind without hearing your sadistic idea of a joke, asshole.

Charlie wraps herself under the covers again, only for Alastor to appear laying beside her.

Alastor: Who's joking?

Charlie scared, jumps and falls off of the bed.

Alastor: You have a captive audience downstairs waiting to hear what kind of inspiring performance you have planned next. And you have a best friend/brother that's outside, preparing himself for the fight.

Charlie now leaning on the bed.

Charlie: Ugh, I can't. How can I face them after failing them all so hard? Even Y/N won't talk to them!

Alastor repositions himself on his stomach and begins kicking his legs in the air.

Charlie: They came here to be saved and all I gave them was more pain. And Y/N succeeded in getting himself killed against Adam, of all people, because of me!

Charlie begins tearing up again.

Charlie: I'm just as bad as the cruelest Overlord in Hell. And maybe worse.

Charlie stands and paces back and forth.

Charlie: At least they don't go around giving false hope.

Alastor: Well, I never expected to see such a miserable display of self-loathing from you.

Charlie: Oh, fuck you, Alastor.

Alastor adjusts himself, now laying on his side.

Charlie: All you do is stand there, smiling, while you watch us struggle and fail. I don't know how you can enjoy all this suffering so much.

Alastor stands up, wraps his fingers on Charlie's shoulder while chuckling.

Alastor: *chuckles* Just because you see a smile don't think you know what's going on underneath.

Alastor lets go of Charlie.

Alastor: *grabs Charlie's face with his hand & makes her smile* A smile is a valuable tool, my dear. *lets go of Charlie's face* It inspires your friends, keeps your enemies guessing, and ensures that no matter what comes your way, you're the one in control. I mean, is that how little your faith is to Y/N? Some friend you are.

Charlie: But, I'm not. And besides, Adam's the first human. Y/N doesn't stand a chance against someone of his intellect especially since he's eaten the fruit!

Charlie starts walking towards her bedroom window.

Charlie: I'm the farthest thing from in control. The person I trust most has been lying to me for years. Heaven refuses to listen. And now, my best friend is going to die and there won't be a thing I can do to save him.

Charlie thuds both fists against the window.

Charlie: Even if they did, I can't prove that the hotel works. Adam has an invincible exorcist army pointed right at my doorstep and there's nothing I can do...

Charlie thuds the window with her fist.

Charlie: ABOUT ANY OF IT!!!

Sinister music plays again and Alastor starts smiling.

Alastor: *in a sing song tune* I know something you don't know.

Charlie: Huh?

Alastor: Call Y/N over here. He needs to hear this, too.

Charlie: But, he's...

Alastor: Do you want to survive and allow your friend to keep living, even though he died once?

Charlie: ...

After a while...

Y/N: This better be important.

Alastor walks over and grabs Charlie's arms.

Alastor: Those big, scary angels are not quite as indestructible as they seem.

Alastor lets go of Charlie and walks away.

Charlie: What are you talking about?

Y/N: *raises eyebrow*

Alastor: Just that you and your little band of misfits might stand more of a chance than you think.

Charlie: *desparately* How? I'll do anything.

Y/N: Whoa, whoa, whoa, Charlie! Settle down, there! Don't go saying that!

Alastor: Anything? Then... Let's make a deal.

Charlie: You... You want our souls?

Alastor: *sinisterly* Your souls? *brightly* Heavens, no. All I need from you two is one itty bitty favor. What's a favor between friends?

Charlie: I won't hurt anyone for you.

Y/N: And I won't abandon the people I care about to serve you.

Alastor: Who's asking! One favor at a time of my choosing, where you two harm no one. In return, I tell you what I know. Do we have a deal?

Razzle and Dazzle both growl as Charlie puts her hands down to stop them.

Y/N: Charlie, don't! We'll figure something else out.

Charlie: How, Y/N? You'll die at the hands of the first human that's walked the Earth! You can't rely on your power to gain the advantage against him. Besides, no offense, but you're too quick to temper. He'll use it to his advantage. I'm sorry, Y/N, but I cannot and will not stand aside to watch you die.

Y/N: I won't die, Charlie! I won't let him hurt you or the others, but I'm not making a deal with the Radio Demon!

Alastor: Last I checked, heroes always have to make the toughest of choices, don't they?

Y/N: ...

Charlie: Y/N, please. At this rate, we're running out of options. We don't have a choice. I know that you know that, too. You're just so stubborn to admit it.

Y/N: Yeah, but... The Radio Demon, Charlie?

Charlie: Y/N, I love you as a brother. And goddamnit, I love your wife and children! As a father, I know you're willing to do whatever it takes to protect your children. Please, Y/N, I wouldn't do this if there's another choice, but there isn't. I don't like this, either, but what's the point of becoming a hero if you aren't willing to make the necessary requirements and sacrifices?

Y/N: ... *sighs* Charlie, I... I can't put you all at risk. I'm not that desperate to make a deal with the devil, even if the devil is the Radio Demon.

Charlie: And that's why you'll lose, Y/N. Thinking for yourself and not taking care of yourself is gonna cost you everything. You need to let us help you. There's no telling what kind of trick Adam will pull to achieve victory! So, please, I'm asking you as someone who sees you for what you want to accomplish.

Y/N: ... *nods*

Alastor: *smile widens*

Y/N & Charlie: Deal!

Ominous music plays as both Charlie and Y/N shake hands with Alastor, resulting in a green demon/ghost-like aura flash throughout the room. The scene cuts to Vaggie, Angel Dust, Sir Pentious and Husk now in the hotel lobby as they observe the flash happen. Vaggie begins heading to her and Charlie's room.

Vaggie: No. No!

Vaggie strains and slams the bedroom door open with her spear in hand.

Alastor: Right on cue!

Vaggie: What did you do? Let them go!

Alastor, Y/N, and Charlie finish there handshake.

Charlie: Vaggie, Stop!

Vaggie: What?

Vaggie drops her spear.

Vaggie: No, Charlie, please, tell me you two didn't-

Charlie: We made a deal with Alastor.

Vaggie: *pleads* Charlie. Y/N.

Alastor: Oh, calm down. They still own their souls.

Charlie: He gave us info that can save the hotel, but we're going to need help. The angels can be defeated and Carmilla is the key.

Vaggie: What? Carmilla Carmine?

Charlie: She killed an exorcist in the last extermination. She knows how they can be harmed. Plus, she can teach Y/N the final piece of his training. Whatever miraculous power he wields is lying dormant, Carmilla is probably the only person who can help him. I need you to take him with you.

Vaggie: But... I-I didn't even know that was possible.

Charlie: If you did, would you have told me?

Vaggie: Charlie, I-

Charlie: I need you to go to her, convince her to teach us. If she can, we might have a chance.

Vaggie: With just the thirteen of us?

Charlie: No, we're- Ugh, we're going to need numbers, too.

Y/N: I have a few friends I can call up, but I won't be able to do this alone. I'll need help.

Alastor reenters the conversation.

Alastor: And I know just who can help. As long as Charlie can be her normal, charming self.

Charlie: What's that you said about smiles?

Alastor: *while patting Charlie's head* Good girl. Y/N?

Y/N: ... If it means you guys are willing to live, I will put my life on the line for you all so that you can live for a better tomorrow.

Alastor: Good boy.

Vaggie: *whispering* Charlie, can we talk about this-

Charlie: We can talk later. Right now, we have a job to do. You with us?

Vaggie: *sighs* Ugh.

Vaggie walks down the stairs, only to be met by a confused Angel Dust.

Angel Dust: So-ho, uh...Alastor, N/N, and Charlie just left like they were runnin' away from their responsibilities. Should we be alarmed?

Vaggie: No. We have a plan, but it involves protecting ourselves against the angels.

Husk: Wh- Are you fuckin' high?

Vaggie: They can be killed-

Frank: Yeah! That knife lady, Camaro Carfight, killed one.

Vaggie: Wait, you knew about this?

Frank: Uh, yeah. I told Boss about it months ago.

Vaggie: *turns to Pentious* He what???

Sir Pentious: What? They say insane shit all the time! How was I supposed to know this one was true?

Egg Boi: Bank accounts are actually a scam created by the shadow government!

Sir Pentious: SEE???

Vaggie: *sighs* What's important now is that we're going to have a fight on our hands. Look, this hotel is about to become the most dangerous place in Hell, and we... I can't guarantee you're safety anymore. I still believe in Charlie's dream and Y/N's hopeful resolve. I know this place can work. But, none of you signed up for this. *heads out the door* I'm gonna go learn how we can fight back, and when I come home... Well, I'll understand if none of you are here.

With that, Vaggie heads out the door, everyone sighing in worry for what she said.

Sir Pentious: Well... This is awkward.

Niffty: 'Kay!

Loona: ...

Blitzø: What do we do?

Loona: ... We stay and fight.

Everyone: What?

Loona: Are you all fucking deaf? I said, we're staying here and fight!

Blitzø: Loona, no! I refuse to let you participate in a war! You could die!

Loona: Not as long as we stick together. If there's one thing I got from Y/N, it's that as long as we work as a team, there's nothing we can't accomplish than what we could by ourselves. That's what redeems us. Makes us who we are. Makes us worthy. I've stood beside Y/N for as long as I can remember and you better believe that it's not changing.

Blitzø: ...

Loona: Blitzø... I-I mean... Dad, I don't want to lose you or anyone, but if we don't fight together, how can we hope to survive for a better tomorrow? Charlie or Y/N's never steered us wrong before and that's not changing. We're all here because of them. Mostly Y/N.

???: She's right.

Everyone looked to see BF/N.

Blitzø: BF/N?

BF/N: Y/N gave me the sitrep on everything. He did make a stupid decision, but he did it for us all. We can't let his or Charlie's sacrifice be in vain. They've already done so much for us, so it's time for us to return the favor. Any questions?

Everyone: ...

Cut to Cannibal Town. Alastor escorts Charlie down the streets as he listens to Charlie, cleaning her monocle in the process.

Charlie: Three years! THREE YEARS I've been sharing my life with her and I tell her EVERYTHING! My hopes, my dreams, my insecurities, my embarrassing habits, what fucking DEODORANT I like, and she keeps something like this from ME??? Why would she lie for so long? Did she think I wouldn't accept her? What about me? Me says un-understanding? *pauses* Misunderstanding *pauses* Dis-under, wait wh-

She pauses for a moment, looking at their current location.

Charlie: Where are we?

Alastor: Cannibal Town! There's a friend here I think you two should meet.

Charlie: In Cannibal Town? But it's... *looks at surroundings* surprisingly nice here.

Alastor: Isn't it, though? And it's all thanks to a very special someone.

Alastor opens the door for charlie as they enter Rosie's Emporium, where they meet the Cannibal Overlord herself at her desk speaking to a young woman at the front of a long line.

Rosie: Well, who hasn't thought about eating their first husband? I certainly would if he didn't taste so bad! Hehe, I tell ya what, you bring ol' tall dark and armless to me and I'll straighten him right out. Okay, sweetie? *gives her card* Here's my card a- *notices Alastor* Oh, my, stars! Do my eyes deceive me? *peeks through crowd* Alastor? *makes her way through* Alastor! Where have you been? These halls really lost some of their sparkle without your lively presence and- *notices Charlie* Oh. Who's this ya brought with ya? Come now, Alastor, she's much too young for you! Did you adopt him?

Charlie rolls her eyes.

Rosie: Just kidding. I know you're an Ace in the hole.

Alastor: A what now?

Rosie: Where are your manners, mister? Introduce us, why don't ya?

Alastor: Ahh, yes. Charlie, this is Rosie.

Rosie curtsies politely.

Alastor: The most darling, delightful and dangerous overlord this side of the Pentagram!

Rosie: Oh! Always such a charmer.

Alastor: And Rosie, it's my pleasure to introduce you... *pushes Charlie up to her* to princess Charlie Morningstar. Daughter of Lucifer and heir to the throne of Hell!

Charlie: How do you do? *waves nervously*

Rosie: Well, well! Isn't this a regal surprise! *pushes them to desk* Come in! Come in! Lemme get you two somethin' to eat. I'm sure we must have a leg around here or somethin'. Oh, what am I thinkin'? *pokes their stomachs* A small thing like you two? You must probably be watchin' ya figure! How bout some nice pinkie singers instead?

As she spoke, she got out a box of cut off pinkie fingers in little pink wrappers.

Charlie: Um... No. No, thank you, though.

Rosie: *puts box away* Oh, look at you two! *pats their heads* So polite! Alastor, you could learn a thing o' two.

Rosie then proceed to take Charlie to a table with three chairs. She sits her down on one of them and she sits on the one across from them. Alastor walks up to Rosie.

Rosie: Sit down. Sit down. Tell Auntie Rosie what she can do for you. Ya know, Alastor. I got a premo-connect on a guy with about eight blocks of territory and not enough goons to run it. Prime pickin's for a deal to be made, my friend

Alastor: Appreciate the offer... *walks up to Charlie* But, we're here on business of another kind.

Rosie: Well, don't keep me in suspense! I'm a very busy woman. *drinks cup of tea*

Charlie: Well, as you know... *panicking* The extermination is coming early and they'll be here in a month and their coming to my hotel and my friends first and I-I-I-I-

Alastor: *interrupts* We need your help. Well, your cannibals help, at least, to fend off the attack.

Rosie: Well! *puts down cup* When you ask a favor, ya don't ask for a small one, do ya, your highness? Oh, now, don't fret. *gets up* I didn't say I wouldn't help. But, I assume there's more to this plan then a bunch of unarmed cannibals.

Alastor: Oh, your people will be far from helpless when we're done with them. And by the end, they will be able to eat... their... fill.

Rosie: Well, in that case, sure! Why not?

Charlie: Really?

Rosie: What can I say? I like your moxie girl.

Charlie: Oooh! Thank you! *holds her hands* Thank you, thank you!

Cut to Vaggie and Y/N at Carmilla Carmine's house, as Vaggie bangs on the door.

Vaggie: *shouting* Carmine! Carmine, we need to speek.

Vaggie walks up to the security camera and stares at it.

Vaggie: I know what you did on Extermination Day. We can talk about it inside or I can yell about it out here.

The door clanks open.

Vaggie: Fuckin' right you open that door.

The door slams shut.

Y/N: Bitch!

Vaggie: Hello?

Carmilla: *echoing* You have 2 minutes to convince me not to silence you for good.

A spotlight is turned on revealing Carmilla.

Vaggie: Miss Carmine, I'm here on appointment from the princess to enlist your aid in the defense of hell from the angelic extermination. We know an angel fell at your hands and we need to know how.

Carmilla: No!

Vaggie: What do you mean, no? The princess of Hell and the Demonic Hero-

Carmilla: Means nothing to me. You'll have to do better than that. 90 seconds.

Vaggie: With your knowledge, we wouldn't have to helplessly stand by while-

Carmilla: Clearly, I am not the helpless one here. 80 seconds.

Y/N was slowly getting angry at Carmilla's attitude.

Vaggie: Well, then why? Why wouldn't you use what you know to fight?

Carmilla: To avoid the very problem you and your little friends are facing right now. I will not invite destruction into my house, on my people.

Y/N: Listen to me, you bitch! You think we asked for this? All I and Charlie have ever done is try to make things better to help our people who, news flash, include your people, too!

Carmilla: And how exactly has that worked out for you? 45 seconds.

Vaggie: We didn't pick this fight, but it's here, now. And they aren't going to stop with us. You didn't see the look on their leader's face. With us out of the way, it's only a matter of time before they come for the rest of you. They won't stop until all of hell is wiped out, so you can help us make a stand here together, or you can stand alone tomorrow. And what do you think your chances will be, then?

Carmilla: You're out of time.

Carmilla jumps down and kicks Vaggie in the face. Vaggie slides on the floor.

Y/N: *snarls* You coward!

Carmilla: *turns around* What was that?

Y/N: If my family dies, their blood will be on YOUR hands, you fucking bitch! And you can be sure that I will be after your BLOOD!!! *transforms*

Vaggie: Y/N, wait!

Carmilla: Angels attack quickly, viciously, and without mercy. You two will need to defend better than that.

Y/N (Devil): You WILL help us or I will force you! I don't give a damn who you are! I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO THEM!!! *charges at Carmilla*

The scene cuts back to Cannibal Town.

Rosie: *through megaphone* Cannibals and Cannibettes, assemble in the square.

Rosie walks with Charlie to the stage.

Rosie: Now, darling, you know I would do anything, anything for my clients, but I can't exactly command all of Cannibal Town to follow someone else into battle. Now, don't get me wrong, they love carnage and bloodshed, but to get this group into line, you both have got to win 'em over. *through megaphone* Settle in! Settle in! Important meeting.

The cannibals form a crowd around the stage.

Charlie: But, how do I-

Rosie: With sparkle! Razzamatazz! And that oh so appealing moxie of yours. And your bleeding heart.

Alastor: Shouldn't be a problem. It's not like you both have never failed to inspire before.

Charlie groans as she walks on stage.

Rosie: Now, fair warning. This group sticks together. So, in order to convince any of them, you'll need to convince all of them. And there's one in particular-

Alastor: Uuuugh, Susan.

Rosie: Susan, who's a bit of an... uh-

Alastor: Ornery old bitch?

Rosie: That! She's tough, but win her over and the rest will be easy as pie. Ready?

Charlie: I guess.

Rosie: *through megaphone* Everyone we have very special, very royal guests this evening! Please, put your bloody hands together for Princess Charlie!

Charlie smiles awkwardly and waves at the crowd.

Susan: Booooo! Bring Rosie back!

Charlie: Susan?

Rosie & Alastor: Susan.

Charlie: *laughs nervously* Sorry. Uh, okay, uh, my name's Charlie...

Susan and Charlie both speak at the same time.

Charlie: Well, we run this hotel with my part... Well, someone... And...Wait, let me start over. Angels are coming to kill us all and we need help defending our realm. So- We, uh... We need your help- With your assistance, we can make a stand for-

Charlie sings.

Charlie (Singing): 🎵I... I have a dream and I-🎵

Susan: *yelling* Booooo! Get off the stage, you blue blood bitch! Booo! We don't give a shit about some hotel. Leave before I eat those big ass eyes of yours. Boo! Get off. Where's the showmanship? Where's all the finesse? Fucking mediocre!

Charlie: *flips her off* FUCK YOU, YOU OLD BITCH!!!

Cannibal crowd gasps.

Rosie: Okay! We'll be back after a brief intermission.

Rosie moves Charlie away from the stage. Cut back to Vaggie, Y/N, and Carmilla fighting. Vaggie and Y/N are slammed onto a pillar, but then starts charging at Carmilla. Carmilla kicks them onto the floor. They get up and starts charging again. But again, Carmilla kicks them onto the floor. They get up and Vaggie just barley points her spear at Carmilla before being kicked onto the floor again, leaving Y/N the only one standing.

Vaggie: Fuck! Ow!

Y/N (Devil): Fucking whore! *transforms*

Carmilla: *eyes widen* ...

Vaggie gets up, only to be kicked, yet again. Vaggie strikes at Carmilla twice, but she dodges both times and kicks Vaggie again. Y/N charges at Carmilla, but Carmilla grabs him neck and slams him to the ground, making Y/N yelp in pain. She then grabbed his tail and throws him to Vaggie.

Vaggie: Come on, what is this?

Y/N (ADF): Fight fair!

Carmilla: You two want me to teach you how to beat angels? That's what I'm doing.

Vaggie: By beating the shit out of us? I'm not used to fighting with long hair.

Carmilla: By showing you the flaws in your own fighting style. Yours and all your sisters'. And you, human, are too quick to temper. Makes it easy for your opponent to use against you.

Vaggie: Wait... You know I'm an Exorcist? How?

Carmilla: You have a giant X over your eye and wield an angelic spear. It's not rocket science. Before you two found out about me, did you know angels could be harmed?

Vaggie: No.

Y/N (ADF): Did it look like we knew? Why else would we seek your help?

Carmilla goes to kick her again, but this time Vaggie dodges. She goes for a knee kick, and it hits. Y/N appears behind her and kicks her in the face, only for her to instantly recover.

Carmilla: That shows in how you two fight. You leave yourselves open with every swing. You fight like someone unafraid of harm and this is what you'll take advantage of. Angels wield no shields, little armor and fight with reckless abandon. Strike them here, here, and here. *kicks Vaggie in the face 3 times*

Vaggie: Argh! With what? Some secret weapon of yours?

Y/N (ADF): My family is going to die, fighting Adam, if I fail. And if they dies, their blood will be on YOUR hands because you refuse to help us! I will not stand aside and watch them die because you want to hide away like a coward!

Carmilla: Stupid... Are you two really so dense you don't realize one of you is holding the answer?

Vaggie: Angelic weapons? It's that simple? How has no one else figured this out?

Carmilla: Angelic steel isn't common and those who have it aren't exactly rushing off to test it against exorcists.

Scene cuts to a flashback with Carmilla and her daughters, rushing home, trying to avoid exorcists. But as they are running, they get caught by 3 of them.

Carmilla: When my daughters and I were cornered in that last extermination I tried to buy time for my girls to flee, and... Well... You don't become an angelic arms dealer without arming yourself first.

One of the exorcists flies in the air and charges at Carmilla. She then jumps in the air. The angelic steel blade on her boots sparkle, as she falls down and uses the blades to cut the exorcist's head off. The scene cuts back to Carmilla and Vaggie as Carmilla begins to sing Out For Love.

Carmilla (Singing): 🎵I see you're driven by your detestation
Your every step is stoked with animus
You need a different type of motivation
Or there's no way that you can handle this
I know you're thirstin' for vengeance, Vaggie
You're out for blood
But you'll only stand a chance if you're out for love
Out for love...
Love...🎵

As she sings, Carmilla, Y/N, and Vaggie continue to spar.

Carmilla (Singing): 🎵Think of who you care about
Protect them and be out
For love...
Love...
You're gonna fight without gloves
Long as you're out for love
Fuel yourself with the fear of losin'
That somebody who's your reason to live
Harness your heart and you can't help choosin'
To fight with all you can give
I know you'rе thirstin' for vengeance, Vaggie
You're out for blood
But you'll only stand a chance if you're out for love
Out for love...
Love...
Think of who you care about
Protect them and be out
For love...
Love...
You're gonna fight without gloves
And when that push comes to shove
Yeah, you just might rise above
Long as you're out for love🎵

Vaggie jumps into the air when suddenly, she grows a new pair of angel wings.

Y/N (ADF): *eyes widen* Whoa...

Carmilla: Well, look at that. You might just survive this.

Vaggie: We're going to need more weapons.

Carmilla: And you, Y/N, you hold dormant power. You may believe you wield powerful power, but that's because you don't know the extent of yourself. You need something to help trigger your power and you will be able to rival even Lucifer. You're capable of achieving the impossible.

Y/N: M-Me?

Carmilla: The way I see it, you're fierce. But, you must learn to control your anger or else your enemies will try to use it against you. Don't ever let your guard down.

Y/N: But, I've never wielded a weapon before.

Carmilla: You won't be able to kill an angel because you're a demon. If you want to survive, you need the angel's power. And to get that, you must learn to master yourself and your power.

Y/N: Master myself? What's that supposed to mean?

Vaggie: ...

Carmilla: All in due time. You've gotten to where you are today because of the love you feel towards your family. I get that when they're in danger, you're bound to kill them, but the longer and the more you let the anger control you, the more hatred you'll begin to feel and soon, you'll be a slave to your anger.

Y/N: ... So, all of this was a test?

Carmilla: Y/N, I know what it's like to give into the anger. It can be used as a weapon if you can master it, but if you can't, you'll become a completely different person hellbent on hatred and revulsion. You must learn to control it or the enemy can use it against you. And soon, you won't be able to tell who's friend or foe. Or worse, you'll end up killing your wife and children.

Y/N: *eyes widen* ...

Carmilla: Hey, chin up and never forget, okay? You're capable of a lot more than you think. So, keep following your path and what you believe in because honestly, this world and many others could use your talents. And Y/N? Always remember who and what you're fighting for.

Y/N: ...

Y/N looks to the window and walked to it.

I don't wanna start a fight
I always try to do what's right
So put your weapons down, we can work it out
Don't get me wrong, I ain't no pacifist

He clenched his fists and thought to his deadliest and fearsome enemies.

For peace, gotta pay a price
And I'll defend what is mine
Fight for what I love, help me, God above
All it takes is one to rise up and resist
Cost you everything when you're at war
These three things I'd die for

He transforms and spreads his wings as he thought to his past.

My faith, my family, my freedom, that's what's backin' me
Gives me a reason for living
I've gotta fight for what I believe in, believe it
Love, loyalty, I pledge fidelity
In this land of liberty, it's everything
My faith, my family, my freedom's all that matters to me

He turns to Carmilla and Vaggie as he walks past them.

A kid arrested in the town
He read the verses too loud
But burn the cities down, celebs will bail you out
Where'd we go wrong? I can't make sense of this

He opens the door and looks up to the sky as if he was looking up at Heaven.

So just leave the kids alone
Better not break into this home
'Cause where I come from, we always stand as one
Where we belong, we won't stand for this
Cost you everything when you're at war
These three things I'd die for

He holds up three fingers and the images of his family came into view.

My faith, my family, my freedom, that's what's backin' me
Gives me a reason for living
I've gotta fight for what I believe in, believe it
Love, loyalty, I pledge fidelity
In this land of liberty, it's everything
My faith, my family, my freedom's all that matters to me, oh
To me, oh

He then turned to see V/N as he turned to look at him.

When darkness divides us
I believe that love can conquer all
Courageous, united
We stand or fall

The world faded to black as he thought to Loona and the pups, F/N and M/N, and Charlie and Vaggie.

My faith, my family, my freedom
My faith, my family, my freedom, that's what's backin' me
Gives me a reason for living
I've gotta fight for what I believe in, believe it
Love, loyalty, I pledge fidelity
In this land of liberty, it's everything
My faith, my family, my freedom's all that matters to me (that's all that matters to me), oh
To me (that's all that matters to me), oh
That's all that matters to me

He summons his magic as the song was finished.

Y/N: ... These flames...

He closes his hand and turns to Carmilla and Vaggie.

Y/N: They shall ever guide me... I won't let you down, Carmilla. I promise.

Carmilla: Don't promise. Just do it.

Y/N: *smiles determined & nods* Right!

Cut back to Rosie and Charlie. The former takes the latter to her room.

Rosie: Alright, what has you so out of sorts, darlin? Ya clearly got more on your mind than angels.

Charlie: *sighs* What do you do when someone you love lies about who they are?

Rosie: Romance? My specialty! Come on, dearie. Details, details!

Charlie: My girlfriend is an Exorcist angel and she never told me or N/N.

Rosie: Oh, shit! Quite a secret. How does that make you two feel?

Charlie: Just... angry. Because we share everything. Because she always supported me and my ideas, and-and- and now, I don't know whether or not that was just more of the lies! *gasps* Oh no, that's a horrible thing to think! Do I think that?! Yes! N-No. Kinda? *sits on couch whimpering*

Rosie: Charlie, you said you love her, right?

Charlie: Yes. Well, I... Yes.

Rosie: And have you ever once doubted if she loved you in return?

As she spoke, she sits down next to Charlie, who shakes her head at the question.

Rosie: So, what's holding you back?

Charlie: She took part in the very thing we've been working so hard to end!

Rosie: Well, isn't the hotel all about redemption?

Charlie: Yes?

Rosie: Charlie... Perhaps Vaggie was trying to redeem herself, too. That's why she hates herself.

Charlie: She knows more than anyone I believe in second chances, why not tell me?

Rosie: If you found out from the start, would you take her in to your place?

Charlie: ...

Rosie: Charlie, it can be difficult to admit to things you're not proud of, especially if those things hurt the ones you love. She fucked up, sure. She's flawed. But, hey, who here in Hell or on Earth isn't? If there's anything I've learned, it's that words are cheap, but actions, they speak for the truth. So, what did her actions say?

Charlie: That she believes in me and what we're doing. Right now, she's off learning how to protect everything we've worked for. And I can't even pitch my hotel right!

Rosie: Well, how do you normally explain your hotel?

Charlie: By singing. But, that never works.

Rosie: It will work here. Trust me, Charlie, music is the universal language. Everyone will listen to it, even if they don't want to. They need to hear you.

Charlie: But, how can I sing to them... if they won't give me a chance?

Rosie: ...

Cut back to the crowd. Charlie and Rosie both walk back up on the stage. Alastor hands Charlie his microphone. Charlie begins to sing Ready For This.

Charlie (Singing): 🎵Have you ever wanted something
That was so clear in your mind that you could taste it?🎵

Susan: You mean like human flesh?

Charlie: Eugh, sort of

Charlie (Singing): 🎵It's a feeling like a rumbling in your gut
That you could finally be faced with
A billion needy faces, I guess what I mean to say is
For the first time in my life
I might have to be ready for this
Ready to be the one who's leading from the front
Gotta come into my own
Gotta come into my throne
Gotta take charge and defend my only home
And although I kinda feel unsteady
Now I need to be ready for this🎵

Charlie marches into the crowd.

Charlie (Singing): 🎵Have you ever felt like you're willing to die
To save the people of your city?🎵

Susan (Singing): 🎵By die, you mean use my teeth to rip flesh apart?🎵

Charlie: That's a start!

Charlie (Singing): 🎵Cause right now, we need a leader
And it seems to me that
Destiny has picked me to be that
If you'll permit me
So who's with me?🎵

Charlie starts dancing.

Charlie (Singing): 🎵Wouldn't it be super to see more of Hell?
Join up now if you like travel
Come on boys, hop in the saddle
Lotta sights to see en route to my hotel
Not to mention the camaraderie
Yes siree, you'll form life-changing friendships
With the folks along the way🎵

Alastor (Singing): 🎵And feast on all the angels you can eat!🎵

Charlie (Singing): 🎵Okay...🎵

Cannibal: Free food? I'm in!

The cannibal crowd join in on the song and start dancing as well.

Cannibal Crowd (Singing): 🎵It's time now to act
They're on the attack🎵

Alastor takes his microphone back and Rosie hands Charlie a parade stick.

Cannibal Crowd (Singing): 🎵When they move to strike
We will fight biting back!
We'll follow your lead
We're eager to feed
We'll sharpen our teeth
For the heavenly feast!
From this moment on, you can count on us
To be resolute and ravenous
Our appetites are whet
And we're set to seize the day
So I say, "Oh hey! Come join the flesh buffet!"🎵

Charlie (Singing): 🎵Well, that's a little violent
Can we tone it down?🎵

Rosie (Singing): 🎵Oh, don't be put off by their snarlin'
That's enthusiasm, Charlie!🎵

Charlie (Singing): 🎵Eh, they just seem a little murdery right now🎵

Rosie (Singing): 🎵Don't worry, honey
That's there thing
Keep singing🎵

Charlie (Singing): 🎵We're super duper grateful
To have you folks aboard🎵

Cannibal Crowd (Singing): 🎵Can't wait to taste an angel's wings🎵

Charlie (Singing): 🎵Oh, Lord...
For the first time in my life🎵

2 Cannibals grab Charlie and carry her as they all march down the road.

Charlie (Singing): 🎵Maybe I can be ready for this
can be the marshal leading the parade
I can come into my own
And I think I've always known
My destiny could never be postponed
When Adam brings the battle here
I must appear like I'm ready for this🎵

Rosie (Singing): 🎵They're dancing along
They're singing her song🎵

Alastor (Singing): 🎵Surprised?
Why, I knew she could do it all along🎵

Rosie & Alastor (Singing): 🎵She's bound to pass the test as Princess of Hell
Like her Daddy she is madly power-fell!🎵

Alastor (Singing): 🎵She's filled with potential that I could guide🎵

Rosie (Singing): 🎵I concur🎵

Rosie & Alastor (Singing): 🎵Stick with her, you'll be on the winning side🎵

All (Singing): 🎵For the first time in our lives
We know that we are ready for this🎵

Charlie (Singing): 🎵We'll show Heaven a fight they won't forget🎵

All (Singing): 🎵It's time to take a stand🎵

Charlie (Singing): 🎵It is time to lend a hand!🎵

Cannibals: Huzzah!

Charlie (Singing): 🎵Against the angels and their deadly threat!🎵

All (Singing): 🎵We cannot take it anymore
The time has come to go to war🎵

Susan gives a nod of approval.

All (Singing): 🎵Prepare to fight, we're ready for...
THIS!🎵

Charlie (Singing): 🎵I really hope that I'm ready for this...🎵

Scene cuts back at the gates of the hotel. Charlie was coming from the left with the army of cannibals while Vaggie and Y/N were coming from the right with multiple crates of weapons.

Vaggie: Looks like you had a busy day.

Charlie: You, too.

Vaggie: Charlie, I-

Charlie: Hold that thought. Err... Ah! We got you a souvenir from Cannibal Town.

Vaggie gasps and has an apologetic expression. She goes to hug Charlie.

Vaggie: Oh, Charlie.

Charlie: The wings are new. They look nice.

Vaggie: Thanks.

They turn to Y/N.

Vaggie: Y/N... I...

Y/N: *hugs Vaggie* Do I have to say this multiple times? That I'm stubborn that way? *smiles*

Vaggie: ... *smiles & hugs Y/N*

Y/N: Come on, let's go home.

Y/N, Vaggie, and Charlie walk into the hotel, as they find Angel Dust, Niffty, Sir Pentious, Husk, Blitzø, Moxxie, Millie, Loona, BF/N, Stolas, and BF/N all working on defenses for the hotel together.

Sir Pentious: Come along, let's put some effort into these fortifications.

Angel: Yeah, fortify that... Well, look who decided to show up. We thought we were fightin' by ourselves.

Vaggie: You're... You're still here?

Sir Pentious: What? Do you think we were a bunch of pusssssies?

Husk: I just got used to you guys. I ain't finding no new drink buddies.

Nifty: I've named all the stains on the carpet. *giggles* That one's Fred.

Loona: We're with you all till the end.

Blitzø: Hear, hear!

Charlie: Well, looks like we have a lot of work to do.

Y/N: Indeed.

The screen fades to black as the episode ends.
