Masquerade

Tyler woke up with a yawn as he rubbed his eyes.

" hey Sara...?" Said Tyler with a tired tone.

" hm?"

" how long did I sleep this time?"

" well... about 4 hours. At least your sleeping is becoming longer"

" yeah. *sigh* Charlie did say that these sleeping pills will help anyone sleep" said Tyler as he picked up a bottle which has several pills in it.

Charlie heard that Tyler was having trouble sleeping and suffers from insomnia and only sleeps for 3 hours. She decided to help him by getting him one of the best sleeping pills to help him sleep better.

It did help but it was going to take some time to adjust since Tyler somewhat has an instinct to wake up after sleeping for 3 hours.

Tyler went to his drawer as he picked up his clothing and went in the shower and took a bath.

He put on his clothes and checked the schedule and he went out of his room.

" huh seems like today is show and tell. Wonder what they will be showing" said Tyler as he made his way to the lobby where everyone was.

There was a tv there as everyone watched what was on.

" hey guys what are you- holy hell!!" Said Tyler as he looked at the tv.

It was non other then Angel on the tv as he was currently sucking someone's dick and fucking with them.

Pentious covered his eyes while Nifty just watched it without a care and Charlie looked away with Vaggie shielding her.

" Angel this is show and tell not some porno kind of thing" said Tyler.

" but I am showing and I'm telling. That's what I said to those two. I won an award for this film you know sweet face. It's one of my best achievements" said Angel.

" well I'm having mix feelings because I'm happy that you won and award for... this but sad that you showed this. Is there anything else you want to show and tell us other than this?" Said Tyler as he sighed.

" hm.... Nope. Besides I'm happy with this achievement and I want to show you guys" said Angel.

" you know, it's not a very convincing interrogation scene" said Husk while wiping a glass at the bar.

" alright dickhead, what makes you think you have any right to insult my work to my fucking face?" Said Angel offended.

" you really going to sit there and act like these scripts ain't hot garbage?" Said Husk.

" *gasp* fuck you this is classy art"

" that's bullshit" said Husk as he walked to Angel with a bottle of beer in hand. " you get drunk and bitch about them all the time everyone likes to bitch to the bartender. I know everything about you and these motherfuckers at this point. That one" said Husk as he pointed at Pentious " that one is an insecure buffoon who's lonely ass watched you idiots sleep" "that one is nothing but a now a grown ass adult who acts like a teenager in a somewhat Cinderella movie looking for his princess and refuses to solve his own mental problems"

" jokes on you I died before I was even 20 so naturally I still have my teenage personality" said Tyler as he looked at his clipboard.

" princess is a bleeding heart who wants to solve everybody else's problem cept her own" said Husk.

" what? No. Pfff, no. That's not true" said Charlie.

" this one judges everyone and everything because she hates herself" said Husk.

" aargh!" Said Vaggie.

" and Nifty... you don't even wanna know what her deal is" said Husk.

" and I would want to keep it that way" said Tyler not wanting to hear what Nifty even is since he currently thinks she is either crazy or just psychotic.

" hahahaha. Wow no kidding! Kittens got claws~" said Angel.

" and you! Don't get me started. I see right through you and all this bullshit and how fake you are" said Husk.

" hahaha. Me? Fake? I have no idea. That's why I'm an actor dumbass and-" before Angel could continue, his phone rang " hold that thought. Hello?" He picked up the phone.

Tyler stood next to Husk not looking up his clipboard.

" so you know there's something wrong with him?" Said Tyler.

" yeah... already know that his boss, Valentino is nothing but a motherfucker. You know how to read people?" Said Husk.

" I know when someone is lying. I also know if someone fakes their personality. Grew up with some shitbags back when I was still alive. Got used to it. You want to me do something?" Said Tyler now looking at Husk.

" ... ask that strap girl to follow him. Pretty sure someone like you need to monitor him" said Husk as he mentioned Sara.

" *nods* Sara?" Said Tyler as she appeared next to his face.

" on it" said Sara as she detached herself from Tyler and started to get close to Angel.

Tyler sat himself at the bar, closing his right eye and opening it again as his eye colour which was grey turned green and his Iris which was in the shape of a grey star turned into a black circle shape as his right eye now looks like Sara's eye.

Tyler and Sara found out that they can see through each others eyes after they recently practice their powers together.

Tyler or Sara can look into each others eye such as if one of them wants to look into another, the other will use both eyes while the other use one of them or both. In this situation, Sara is using both her eyes to see what Angel is doing as her green colour eyes glowed and Tyler is only using one eye to see through Sara's two eyes.

' ok Sara. Whatever you do, just follow Angel. We can't have him suspect that your watching' thought Tyler to Sara.

' got it' said Sara.

" hey Ty, I'm gonna go after Angel ok? Keep the activity going if you want" said Charlie as she waved at Tyler.

" ok? See you soon" said Tyler as he waved back. Charlie closed the door and went after Angel as Tyler faced palmed. 'Well at least Charlie is there... please be ok' thought Tyler.

With Sara, she was watching Angel in the corner as she observed the whole studio.

' wait is that... one of the overlord and one of the three V's Valentino?' Thought Sara. ' oh shit! This is bad. Really bad! If he sees me...'

Sara cants help but crawl away into a room as she hid with the rest of the hanged clothing.

She peeks out through the crack of the door as she saw Charlie there.

' what the? Charlie? What are you doing here?' Thought Sara.

Sara decided to watch the scene as she watches Charlie talk to one of the producers.

Suddenly, there was a fire going on as everyone was screaming.

' how did it start from a meeting to a fire?' Thought Sara. Valentino then used his large wings to put the fire out as Sara saw him drag Angel closer to the room that she was in. ' oh no!' Thought Sara as she hid deeper in the bundle of clothes.

She then realise that she is in Angel's dressing room as Valentino closed the door as Angel had a scared look on his face.

" Val I didn't know that-" before Angel could continue, Valentino hit him in the face as Angel faced him again " Val I-"

Valentino then grabbed Angel by the collar of his robe as he pulled Angel closer to his face.

" you really think you can have Lucifer's little bitch fight battles for you?!" Said Valentino as he pushed Angel to the table behind him.

" Val I'm sorry she-"

" you bring her here to protect you? To fuck with me?!" Said Valentino as he threw Angel to the couch.

Sara stood there in shock. Her limbs were shaking as she was on the verge of tears. She tries her best to keep herself from making a single noise as she knows what Valentino is capable of.

A few decades ago

" Val I'm so sorry! I'll try better please just don't hurt them!" Shouted a women's voice.

" you really think after all that they deserve my mercy?!" Shouted Valentino as he hit the women's face.

" Val please they're just new here. I don't blame them. Please just blame me. I was the one that told them do that. So please don't hurt them" pleaded the women.

Valentino used his red smoke to create a chain around her neck connecting to the leash which Valentino was holding.

" you do understand that I own you and there's nothing you can do about it? Or have you forgotten your position in this part of hell?!" Said Valentino as he made a golden contract appear in front of the women.

The women is currently on her knees with tears in her eyes as she stared at the contract.

" ... yes Val... I know. But please, don't hurt them. Hurt me..." said the women.

" hm... well... I'll let them off the hook" said Valentino as he made the contract disappear and the red smoke chains dispersed in the air as he looked at the women again. " only this once and your going to fulfil their shift. You're working all night so you better get your shit together. We're going on in five"

He left without saying a word as the women crawls to her dressing table as tears came down her eyes. She wiped them away as she applies concealer to make the bruises on her face disappear. She looked at herself in the mirror as there was a Polaroid picture stuck on there with herself and another person standing next to her as she and the person was hugging. The person was a man a few inches taller then the women with her black hair covering his eyes and a dark grey skin wearing a normal shirt and pants as his left arm was around the women's waist pulling her into a hug.

The women in the picture has her long blond hair with a few bows on her bangs as she ticks them to the side. She has green glowing eyes with a normal shirt and a skirt using her right arm as it was wrapped around the man's waist pulling him into a hug.

On the bottom, there were words written on it as the women touched the picture with her left hand covering some of the words since the picture was on her left side of the mirror.

It currently says '.... gi X Sara'. She smiled as she puts on her happy face and went out of her dressing room.

Back to the present

Sara saw Angel and Valentino come out of the room as they faced Charlie.

She saw Charlie turn into her demon form before Angel stopped her telling her to go back to the hotel.

' Charlie... I'm so sorry...' thought Sara. She can't help but think about the past and how she was before she got turned into her current form. ' Tyler... one day... I'll tell you everything... but right now... your not ready'

" Sara. What's going on? Charlie came back with a sad face" thought Tyler to Sara.

' oh um... it's just Angel... and Valentino' said Sara.

" I see... carry on. Don't leave until Angel does" ordered Tyler.

Sara was about to argue before she realised that maybe Angel might need someone to monitor him.

She sat there in the dressing room as she keeps on watching over Angel doing several other shoots with Valentino watching as well as doing other things with random demons.

She started to get major headaches and flashbacks from watching Angel do all these things as she remembers what she had to do.

' Angel... why didn't you tell me or Tyler or at least anyone about this? We want to help you' thought Sara.

She watched as Angel worked tirelessly as finally he looked like she was about the leave.

As he walked out the door, Sara slithered away keeping a good distance away from him until finally he reach the hotel.

Sara attached herself back to Tyler as he was sitting at the bar, sipping on some mimosa while looking at his clipboard writing something.

Angel sat next to him exhausted as Tyler only glanced at him.

" you look like shit" said Tyler.

" pff, not possible. Just a long shoot. That's all sweet face. Hey, I need a drink. The hardest one you can make" said Angel.

Husk pulled out a few bottles and a cup as he started to make Angel's drink.

" like fuck" said Husk as he finished making Angel's drink.

He grabbed the cup as he gulped down the liquid.

" hey you should slow down a bit Angel. Pretty sure that's really pure alcohol" said Sara with a concern face.

" as if. I said a strong one" said Angel as the glass is now empty.

" excuse me? I didn't realise this was a 'drinking to forget' kind of night" said Husk as he made another drink.

" oh I forgot. Your the wise old bartender who's seen it all. Get the fuck over yourself and pour me a real drink" said Angel as he tipped the glass over making the liquid spill.

Husk calmly took the glass away and wiped the table that has the liquid with a rag.

" look, if you have a problem you aren't going to find the solution at the bottom of a bottle. I should know. I've been looking there a long time" said Husk.

" and your not gonna try and forget the problem by smoking crack and forgetting your responsibility. Even if you forget about it, the effects are only temporary and the pain will come back so it's either you can just run away like a coward or face it. I chose the first option. The most biggest mistake of mine" said Tyler still not taking his eyes off the clipboard.

" hm... oh sure. And where should I look? In both of you bedroom maybe?" Said Angel looking at both of this. This time, Tyler took his eyes off his clipboard and looked at Angel who was giving him and Husky suggestive faces. " under the covers? Maybe we can all look together~"

" don't even start" said Husk.

" Angel you're a really nice guy and I really like you but I only have room for one person in my heart and she has taken that spot" said Tyler.

" oh come on" said Angel as he got closer together with both Husk and Tyler. " I bet I can make your straps unwrap and your wings flap"

" stop!" Said Husk as he pushed Angel away from him  and Tyler " fucking Christ!"

" Angel what's wrong? You're acting out of the ordinary now" said Tyler. Angel simply ignored Tyler as he faced with Husk.

" you can cut the act. It's never gonna work so just cut this fake bullshit" said Husk.

" call me fake one more time! I dare you" said Angel as he faced closer to Husk.

" ok ok guys can we all just calm down and talk about this like adults?" Said Tyler trying to calm the situation down. Husk and Angel ignored him as they continue.

" fake" said Husk as he grinned.

" fucking asshole!" Said Angel as he accidentally hit his head on top of the bar.

" are ya done?" Said Tyler as he saw Angel on the ground next to the broken bottle. " Angel stop with all of this nonsense. You're just making an ass about yourself. If anything your just an idiot now"

" oh ho. You know what?! You would even be lucky to have someone to fuck like me!" Said Angel as he threw a broken bottle aiming at both Husk and Tyler as they both dodged it with no effort. " do you know how much I'm worth?! People would kill to have Angel Dust come onto them! Fuck you! Have fun with your lonely piece of shit and have fun finding your bitch!" Said Angel as he ran away pushing Vaggie as she stood there confused.

" whoa. The hell? Angel where are you going?" Said Vaggie.

" out!" Shouted Angel as he angrily shut the door.

" Husk what did you do?" Said Vaggie as she faced him.

" made him a drink" said Husk.

" oh no. He looked really upset" said Charlie.

" it's just Angel. He'll be fine" said Husk.

Tyler stared back at Husk with a serious face.

" He isn't doing fine and you know it" said Tyler. " someone should really go after him"

Husk simply just picked up a bottle and put it on a shelf.

" someone named Husk" said Tyler.

" why the fuck should I go. If you're so worried about him, why don't you go? Besides you were at fault more than me"

" at least I didn't hurt his feelings by pushing him too hard unlike you" said Angel.

" yeah and tell him to come back here" said Vaggie as she and Charlie were at the bar.

" wait no. Don't force him back. Just, check on him. Make sure he's ok and safe" said Charlie. " now I'm gonna write 100 apology letter and a lesson plan for tomorrow called boundaries. Tyler put that in the schedule for tomorrow ok?"

" got it. And Husk it's ok... I'll go with you" said Tyler as he rolled his eyes.

Husk didn't seem to care as he and Tyler went out of the hotel to go look for Angel.

After a while, they found Angel as he entered a club bar. Husk and Tyler entered the bar as the sat down.

" give me a drink whiskey" said Husk as he handed a couple of dollars to the bartender as the octopus head with a treasure chest on it poured the liquid in a glass for him " I meant the whole bottle jack ass" Husk took the bottle as he drank straight for it.

The bartender looked at Tyler waiting for him to order a drink.

" just give me some red wine" said Tyler as he also handed a few dollars to the bartender as he poured him a champagne glass filled with red wine as Tyler took a sip of it. " we really going to get wasted here?"

" just keep an eye out for him. Make sure he doesn't do anything stupid" said Husk.

" hey, one of them is coming" said Tyler as he nudged at Husk.

One of the guys that was with Angel along side his gang came and sat next to Husk while the bartender was pouring a drink that one of the glass was for Angel.

Husk and Tyler saw him spike the drink with a somewhat drug as the demon got up and went to Angel handing him the spiked drink.

" welp seems like that's our call" said Tyler as he got up. Husk faced palmed a she mumbling.

" here you go darling, just for you-" said the demon before Husk grabbed him from behind by his collar making him drop the drinks.

" nice try fuckhead" said Husk before he threw him at the 80's record player.

The gang flipped the table as they took out their weapons.

" son of a bitch" said Tyler as he used his sash to attack them as Huskies grabbed Angel and ran out of the club with Tyler following behind.

" Husk! Tyler! What the fuck are you both doing here?!" Said Angel as Husk is now dragging him.

" we're taking you back to the hotel" said Husk.

" wait we can't force him back. Charlie said so" said Tyler trying to reason with Husk but he wasn't listening.

" get off!" Said Angel was Husk finally let Angel go as he faced him.

" that fucker put something in yer drink" said Husk.

" you both don't think I can tell if someone put something in my drink?" Said Angel.

" you let some rando fucker drug you?" Said Tyler.

" you think I asked for it?!" Said Angel " I didn't ask for any of this shit! I didn't ask for Charlie to save me! I didn't ask for neither of you to save me! I didn't want to be this way! I can handle myself!" Said Angel.

" you sure did handle yourself back there pal!" Said Tyler. " you were acting like nothing but a self destructive idiot who's life depended on getting high enough to forget their problems and willing to get themselves killed or gang banged by some rando mafia"

" and it seems like you need a bartender to talk to" said Husk.

" you really think I'm just gonna open myself up to you after the way you treated me?!" Said Angel.

" maybe I might treat you better if you just drop the act with this bullshit version of yourself" said Husk.

" Angel I know if someone is acting just to be nice to others when really they are nothing but some broken person so just stop with all the acting already" said Tyler.

" it's not an act!" Said Angel as his eyes were watered.

Husk and Tyler looked at him with sorry faces as Angel continued.

" it's all not an act. I have to be this way ok?! This is my escape. From all the pain I'm feeling. I need to get all high or else... I won't be his favourite toy anymore" said Angel. He sat on the curb as he hugged his legs. " them maybe he'll let me go..."

Tyler sighed at he sat next to Angel on his right side as Husk sat on his left.

" Angel... I know Val more than anything and I swear to you, he would not let anyone go that easily" said Sara as she came closer to Angel.

" how the fuck do you know? Have you even worked with him?"

" let's just say, I was attracted to the light a bit too much..." said Sara.

" I was an overlord once. It was nice having that power while also being a gambler dealing with souls" said Husk. " the stakes were pretty high. Even losing a few souls was pretty dangerous. When your down on your luck, you'd turn to anything just to keep you afloat. You'd even make deals yourself" Husk explained as he was once an overlord and gambled against Alastor as he lost against him. A reason why Husk is in debt to him. This gave Tyler to think since Yuri is an overlord and whether if she's done deals with someone in trade for their souls.

" hey kid, I don't know much about that Yuri overlord girl, but... I don't think she makes any deal with anyone not that I heard anything about her. But I do know from what you talked about her, she seems decent enough to know not to hand out deals" said Husk assuring Tyler Yuri would not be like most of the overlords.

" thanks Husk" said Tyler. He then looked at Angel who is still sad as Tyler decided to speak up " hey Angel, I know what it's like to do something you can't take back. Remember when I told you that being high doesn't make your problems go away? Yeah that happened to me. For the longest I knew, I can see if people was acting fake around me. It was to a point I got used to it and I didn't care. All I cared is being the most famous and popular person there is. I then met Yuri... it didn't go as planned as I was dared to date her but... I don't know why but I fell for her. I then realised, unlike all the girls and some boys I've been with, she is the most real one there is. She doesn't fake her emotions like any of them to get anything from me. She is someone kind and caring but... I threw all that away. Started getting high more often to forget the pain. It did help but the pain keeps coming back. I regret that I wasn't there to protect her. I felt as if I was the reason why she died. I don't know why but... I felt like I want to join her. If she's miserable, maybe I can be miserable with her under the same umbrella. So Angel, I know what it's like to do something you can't take back" said Tyler.

He remembered that day Yuri died during the cruise. He felt guilty after they announced her death as he kept on getting high forgetting the pain. It wasn't long until he died as well.

[HUSK]
So things look bad, and your back's against the wall
Your whole existence seems fuckin' hopeless
You're feelin' filthy as a dive bar bathroom stall
Can't face the world sober and dopeless
You've lost your way, you think your life is wrecked
Well, let me just say you're correct

[ANGEL DUST]
Wait, what?

An only one-star reviews-er
You're a power-bottom at rock bottom
But you got company

[ANGEL DUST]
This supposed to make me feel better?

[HUSK]
There was a time I thought that no one could relate
To the gruesome ways in which I'm damaged
But lettin' walls down, it can sometimes set you straight!
We're all livin' in the same shit sandwich

[ANGEL DUST]
I sold my soul to a psychopathic freak

[HUSK]
Haha! And you think that makes you unique?
Get outta here, man!
We're both losers, baby
We're losers, it's okay to be a

[ANGEL DUST]
Coked-up, dick-suckin' ho?

[ANGEL DUST]
I'm a loser, honey
A schmoozer and a dummy
But at least I know I'm not alone

[HUSK]
You're a loser

[ANGEL DUST & HUSK]
Just like me

" common sweet face" said Angel.

" nah it's ok" said Tyler.

" we're all losers. So are you dumbass" said Husk. Tyler rolled his eyes as he finally joined in.

[TYLER WHITEBELL]
I'm a loser baby a loser
Lost the girl of my dreams
Continued on with those psychotic freaks
I regret my choices
I'm a loser baby a loser
A one star loser
At least I'm not alone anymore

[HUSK]
I got an appetite for gamblin'

[ANGEL DUST]
I got an appetite for samplin' every drug and sex toy I can find

[TYLER WHITEBELL]
I got an appetite for coke and liquor for me to be drinkin

[HUSK]
Go ahead baby, sing that song, come on!

[ANGEL DUST]
I got no holes left to deflower

[HUSK]
I sold my soul to save my power
Now I'm on that demon's leash

[TYLER WHITEBELL]
I gave up my life to be with the girl of my dreams

[ANGEL DUST, TYLER WHITEBELL & HUSK]
I'm trapped and it gets worse with every hour

[ANGEL DUST]
You're a loser, baby

[TYLER WHITEBELL]
Yeah I'm a loser baby but so are you

[HUSK]
A loser, but just maybe if we

[ANGEL DUST, TYLER WHITEBELL & HUSK]
Eat shit together, things will end up differently

[HUSK]
It's time to lose your self-loathin'
Excuse yourself, let hope in, baby
Play your card, be who you are

[ TYLER WHITEBELL]
Nows the time to get the fuck over yourself
Live your life
Find who are are

[ANGEL DUST, TYLER WHITEBELL & HUSK]
A loser, just like me

" there they are!" Shouted one of the gang members voice from the club " and they're fucking singing?! Get them!"

Angel, Husky and Tyler ran at the back of the car taking cover.

" stay down. We'll deal with this" said Husk.

He and Tyler jumped out and stood in front of the car and Husk threw his cards at them with explosive dices.

Tyler used his sash to push the gang down and his staff to stab them.

It was before a gang member put Husk and Tyler in a headlock.

" son of a-!" Before Husk can continue, Angel shot the two members as they fell back.

" holy shit" said Tyler as he and Husk stood next to Angel.

" eat lead sucker" said Angel as he continued to shoot at the member as he exploded in blood. " I told you. I can handle myself baby"

They started attack the gang as each and all of them fell down covered in blood.

Angel, Husk and Tyler were both covered in their blood as well.

" well this is not what I expected but I'm glad I got a piece of fun from it" said Tyler as he wiped some of the blood of his face. " thanks Angel"

" no prob sweet face. Besides, sex isn't the only thing I'm good at" said Angel.

" good because this guy, is a version I like more" said Husk.

" same here" said Tyler as they smiled at each other.

They walked back to the hotel as they laughed thinking back on what happened.

" hahahaha! This guy has like three bills and it took him 30 minutes to count them! His eyes are so shit!" Said Angel.

" hahaha and this is the guys you take orders from?" Said Husk as they kept laughing.

" believe me Husk, his eyes are as blind as a bat I swear those sunglasses he wore is only for show and that's all" said Sara.

" Angel I am so sorry" said Charlie as she ran and hugged Angel. " I promise I will never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever-" before she can continue, Angel interrupted her.

" hey Charlie it's fine. I get it. I'm just glad you care about me" said Angel.

Charlie's eyes geared up as she started wailing.

" he he he forgave me" said Charlie as Angel picked her up.

" um... I think this is yours?" Said Angel as he passed Charlie to Vaggie as she carried Charlie in her arms like a bride.

" ok missy let's get you to bed" said Vaggie as she carried Charlie to her room.

" he forgave me. It was so beautiful" said Charlie.

" don't know about you two but I really need a drink" said Tyler.

" you read my mind" said Angel.

" was about to bring the subject up" said Husk.

They three men make they're way to the bar as Husk made a drink for them and for himself as they drank and talk about their problems and laughs bout it.

Hey guys! Really hope you enjoy this chapter so far. I just want to say I'm really sorry if this feels a bit off or something. Also yes I made those lyrics of Tyler in the song 'loser' myself since I felt like Tyler might fit in the song a bit. Please don't judge the lyrics since again I'm not a songwriter. I just go with the flow. This chapter took long then I expected since it's mostly about Angel Dust. Hope you enjoy. See you next chapter.
