But anyway onto the chapter.

After the opening, the scene changes to show the streets of Pentagram City as many demons start coming out of their hiding spot after the Angels' Extermination was over as the Exorcists have begun to leave Hell. However, one of the Exorcists decided to go against Adam's orders and went after another Sinner Demon as she corners him in a dark alley.

Exorcist: Nowhere to run, shithead! (Takes out her angelic spear)

Sinner: Wait, stop! You don't have to do this! The Extermination is over!

Exorcist: Oh, but I want to do this and I'm going to enjoy staining this filthy ground with your disgusting Demon blood!

Sinner: No! Stop! Please don't kill me!

However, before the Exorcist could kill the Sinner Demon she then gets wrapped up in chains as they come out of the ground while Zarathos appears from out of the shadows.

Zarathos: (to the Sinner) You can go now. I'll take it from here. (Sees the Sinner nod his head as he runs away; turns his attention to the angel) You know, going against your boss's orders will result in you turning into a Fallen Angel.

Exorcist: Oh, my boss doesn't give a fuck about that! And where have you been, Zarathos?! You haven't been seen in every Extermination that we enact for the past ten years. What's the matter, did you get scared or something?

Zarathos: No, I decided to lay low and watch from the shadows as I observe what you angels have been doing. I have a plan that is set in motion and I can't start it prematurely without fully knowing what Adam's true intentions are, but I know that you won't tell me his plans willingly and so that's why I have ways of getting the truth out of you. (Starts smirking)

Exorcist: (scoffs) No matter what you do to me, I'm not going to talk, you vile Demon! Torture me all you want, but I'm not going to tell you anything as my mouth is sealed!

Zarathos: (starts laughing evilly before he grins sinisterly) Oh, my dear I don't need to torture you just to get you to tell me about Adam's plans. (Grabs her chin and gets close to her face) All I need you to do is (Voice becomes more demonic) look into my eyes! (Activates his Penance Stare and looks into her soul)

With his Penance Stare, Zarathos manages to force the angel to tell him that Adam is planning something big for the next Extermination, but unfortunately, she doesn't know what it is though. After learning what he needed to know, Zarathos' Penance Stare then incinerated the angel while he also consumed her soul as well as taking her skull as a trophy. Once he puts his trophy into his pocket dimension by using his powers, as well as completely vaporizing the Angel's body into a pile of ashes, Zarathos then walks out of the alley until he notices a red-haired humanoid demon dragon with pale chalk-white skin that is covered in black tattoos, red eyes, and a spiked black club at the end of his tail. He appears to be drooling black acidic saliva as he stands behind him.

???: Master! You have finally returned! (Licks his lips as his acidic drool falls to the ground)

Zarathos: Hello there, Hatchet. It's nice to see you again. Tell me, how are things back home?

Hatchet: Everything is going well, Master. However, I should tell you that Charlie tried to get her hotel idea noticed by the 666 News, but it didn't really work out, and now she's back at the Happy Hotel in defeat.

Zarathos: (sighs disappointedly) That girl doesn't know when to give up, does she? Well, I better go check on her as well as see what she plans on doing this time. (Turns away from Hatchet and begins to walk)

Hatchet: I should also tell you that the Radio Demon is back in town, and I last saw him with Charlie at the hotel.

Zarathos: (stops walking as the flames in his eyes, as well as engulfing his skull, flash from his normal color to dark blue) What did you say?! (Turns his head in an unnatural way to look at Hatchet) If Alastor's back in town and is currently hanging around Charlie, then that means he is after her soul. I'm not going to let that happen!

Zarathos then disappears in a burst of flames as Hatchet stands there with a confused expression on his face until he notices a small animal and lunges after it. Meanwhile, the scene changes to show the inside of the Happy Hotel, where Charlie is excitedly looking at Husker and Niffty, whom Alastor has summoned to help her with her hotel, while her girlfriend Vaggie doesn't look amused.

Alastor: So, whaddaya think?

Charlie: This is amazing! (rubs her cheeks excitedly)

Vaggie: (with crossed arms) It's... okay.

Alastor: (reels the two towards him) Hahaha! This is going to be very entertaining! (Notices dark blue flames appearing in front of him as it takes the form of a large skull; starts smiling)

Zarathos: ALASTOR!!!! You got some nerve coming back here again!!

Alastor: (let's go of both Charlie and Vaggie) Ah, Zarathos, how wonderful it is to see you again. What have you been up to, my friend?

Zarathos: (turns into his true form as he towers over Alastor) Cut the bullshit, Alastor! You're after Charlie's soul and I'm not going to let you claim it!

Alastor: (starts laughing) Actually, that is not the case, as I'm here to help Charlie with her plans to establish this fine establishment and get her hotel up and running. (Sees Zarathos start glaring at him as his flames become more intense)

Charlie: It's the truth, Zarathos! While Alastor did try to make a deal with me, I respectfully declined it in exchange for him working for me as ordered by the princess of Hell. (Smiles innocently)

Zarathos: (turns to Charlie with his eyebrow raised before returning to his normal form) Very well. However, (turns to Alastor as his voice gradually becomes more demonic) I'm warning you now, Alastor: if you even think about taking Charlie's soul, then I will drag you to the farthest region of Hell, where you will suffer endless torment until I rip your soul out and then devour it in front of YOU!!! UNDERSTAND!!!!

Alastor: (continues to smile) Crystal.

Noticing the tension in the air, Charlie then decides to introduce Zarathos to everyone in the hotel: Vaggie, Angel Dust, Husker, and then Niffty. This causes Zarathos to have an unamused expression on his face as he looks at everyone, including Alastor.

Charlie: So you see, I still want to help rehabilitate the Sinners and get them into Heaven, and everyone here is willing to help me succeed. (She starts poking her fingers as she looks down) I was wondering if maybe you could help me as well, Zarathos?

Zarathos: You already know how I feel about these Sinners, Charlie. Most of them are selfish, arrogant stains that only care about themselves, as I have personally sent them to Hell in the first place. They are beyond saving.

Charlie: I believe that there's still good in these sinners, even if it's deep within them; all they need is just a little push in the right direction. (Sighs) Please, Zarathos? My parents aren't around to help me with this, and you are the only person I can turn to, especially since you have been a friend of my family's since the beginning.

Zarathos: (gains a somber expression on his face as he then sighs before placing a hand on Charlie's shoulder) Alright, Charlie. I'll see what I can do.

Charlie: (lights up and gives Zarathos a hug) Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Zarathos smiles as he hugs Charlie back before they both separate, and the latter runs up to Vaggie and starts talking to her. At the same time, Zarathos teleports out of the Happy Hotel as his song starts playing while he walks down towards Pentagram City.

Zarathos: ♫ They can't be saved, no, they can't be changed. They won't get a chance at life again [again]. 'Cause Vaggie has rage and Angel's a slave. To cocaine and different types of men [of men].♫

Zarathos is shown passing several demons as they either hide out of fear or clean up the dead bodies from the Angel's Extermination.

Zarathos: ♫(uses his flames to create a halo in his hand) So there won't be no halos hanging over their heads. And if you try to put one there [don't you dare]. (Incinerates the halo) I'll fucking burn it to shreds [it'll be off with their heads].♫

Zarathos throws the flames to the ground as he summons his wings and starts flying above the city.

Zarathos: ♫'Cause there won't be no halos in hell! No, there won't be no happy hotel! No, there won't be no angels to fell! (Starts laughing sinisterly) Cause there won't be no halos [don't you dare]. Promise me there's no halos [darling, it's not fair]. 'Cause I really hate halos [halos].♫

Zarathos then turns to look at his reflection in a building window as he lands on top of a roof and gazes at the Happy Hotel from a distance.

Zarathos: ♫You won't liberate [you won't liberate]. Some demons never change. Like Alastor who is always scheming. Husker gambles, he pays. He's been drinking for days. And Niffty is obsessively cleaning [cleaning].♫

As Zarathos sings, he jumps off the building and lands on a demon, which kills it instantly. He then starts walking through the city as he makes his way to the Heaven Embassy.

Zarathos: ♫(uses his flames to create a halo in his hand) So there won't be no halos hanging over their heads. And if you try to put one there [don't you dare]. (Incinerates the halo) I'll fucking burn it to shreds [it'll be off with their heads].♫

Zarathos crushes the flames in his hand as he summons his wings, flies up the embassy building, and lands on top of the clock tower.

Zarathos: ♫'Cause there won't be no halos in hell! No, there won't be no happy hotel! No, there won't be no angels to fell! (Starts laughing sinisterly) Cause there won't be no halos [don't you dare]. Promise me there's no halos [darling, it's not fair]. 'Cause I really hate halos [halos].♫

Zarathos then uses his powers to appear in a dark room, where he sees an illusion of his original angelic self that has been chained to the ground.

♫Halos, no halos. No halos, no halos. No halos [no halos in hell], no halos [no halos in hell].♫

Zarathos' past self tries to reach out to his current self as he silently pleads for his help. However, Zarathos then places his hand on his past self's head before completely incinerating him to ashes, and the area returns to normal.

♫No halos [no halos in hell], no halos [no halos in hell].♫

Zarathos: ♫No halos in hell! No, there won't be no happy hotel! No, there won't be no angels to fell! (Starts laughing sinisterly). So listen to me, Charlie. There's no way out of here [of here].♫

Zarathos then flies into the air as he turns to look at the hotel far in the distance. His song ends before he disappears in a burst of flames, a smirk on his face.

Timeskip

The scene changes to show a shot of Imp City that slowly zooms in on the I.M.P building. Inside, Blitzo is shown walking in front a whiteboard on the wall as he lectures his employees.

Blitzo: Alright. Now, I know business has been... a bit slow lately, yes. It's no one's fault, okay? I'm not naming any names here... (looks at Moxxie) Moxxie.

Moxxie gives him an incredulous look in response.

Blitzo: Now, does anyone have... any bright ideas on how we can get business drummin' up again?

Millie: (eyes sparkling) What about a car wash?

Blitzo: This is Hell, Millie. No one cares about cars being clean here, okay? (thinks for a second) Wh- Ooh! What about a billboard? (waves his hands with an enthusiastic flair as sparkles fly out)

Moxxie: (rolls eyes) We can't afford a billboard, sir.

Blitzo: (wraps his arm over Moxxie's shoulder) Helpful, Moxxie. Really glad you're in the room right now. (pushes Moxxie away) Have you guys forgotten what service we provide?

However, before Blitzo can turn on the TV to show his employees what their company can do, they all hear the sound of someone knocking on the door.

Blitzo: Oh, for fuck's sake! Who the hell could that be at this hour?!

Loona: (stays entirely focused on her phone) It's probably a customer, so answer the damn door.

Moxxie: A customer here this early? That never happens, and we're not even open yet.

Millie: Well, then go and answer the door already. If it's indeed a customer, then they'll definitely get our business up and running again.

Blitzo: Yeah, yeah, I know. (Walks over to the door as he clears his throat) Hello and welcome to I.M— (opens the door and sees Zarathos on the other side) fuck.

Zarathos: (smiles sinisterly) Hello there, Blitzo.

Blitzo: (backs up as Zarathos walks in) Zarathos?! I didn't know that you were coming back.

Zarathos: Ah, yes. Well, I decided to return from my absence and pay a visit to the very city that I helped establish, as well as reunite with a couple of old friends. Speaking of which, how has your business been doing lately, Blitzo?

Moxxie: Terrible, Mr. Zarathos. You see, Blitzo blew most of our salaries on an obnoxious TV ad last week, which he then additionally paid to have run for a full three hours on a channel... nobody watches. Not only that, but our last mission caused us to accidentally shoot an innocent child, which I'd like to go on record and say that incident was Loona's fault. Dispatch is supposed to give us the right info on the target. It's very simple.

Loona: (not looking up) Oh, sit on a dick, Moxxie. (Looks up at Zarathos, and her cheeks become slightly red as she turns back to her phone)

Moxxie: YOU sit! Sit on... a... and the... d-- DO YOUR JOB!!

Blitzo: Hey, now. We don't blame our screwups on Loona, okay?! (hugs and nuzzles Loona, who snarls at him in response) She didn't do anything wrooooong~.

Zarathos: Alright, that's enough. Let's just take it from the top and explain to me exactly what goes down around here.

Moxxie: As you wish, sir. For starters, Loona doesn't even do her job correctly. When my wife was injured in a fight, she called Loona to get her to call me, and instead of doing that, she hung up the phone! She also faxed me an ad for weight loss, and she even ate my lunch that I had placed in the fridge before kicking it into my face! Blitzo, on the other hand, treats Loona like she's some troubled teenager! She's more like a meth-addicted homeless woman he lets man the phones!

As Moxxie rants, Loona continues looking at her phone, slowly flipping Moxxie off.

Millie: Blitzo can do whatever he wants with Loona; after all, he is our boss. I mean, he even had sex with a Goetia demon prince and stole his Grimoire so that we could have access to the human world.

Zarathos: (His flames become dark blue as he turns to Blitzo) YOU DID WHAT?!?! Are you out of your fucking mind, Blitzo?! (He summons a green chain around Blitzo's neck and pulls him to the ground) It is strictly forbidden for any lower-class demon to steal the Grimoire of a Goetia demon, as the punishment resorts to public execution. Instead of coming to me for help, as I would have gladly given you the means of traveling to the human world, you stole a fucking Grimoire!

Blitzo: (laughs sheepishly as he slowly stands back up) Well, you were my first choice to ask for help ten years ago, but you had disappeared, so I decided to improvise. Besides, Stolas has willingly allowed me and my crew to do our jobs by granting us access to his Grimoire with his permission.

Zarathos: (sighs disappointedly as he dismisses the chain) Oh, for fuck's sake. Call Stolas so that I can talk to him, please?

Blitzo nods his head as he takes out his phone and starts calling Stolas.

Stolas (through phone): Hello, Blitzy. I was feeling quite lonely since our last call and you know what happens when I'm lonely, Blitzy? When I'm lonely, I become hungry. And when I become hungry, I want to choke on that red dick of yours... toss your salad and lick all of your shit, before taking out your prostate, and filling it with more teeth until you're screaming "Yes, Daddy!" like a FUCKING baby--!

Blitzo immediately hangs up the call as both he and Zarathos look visibly disturbed, as the latter's flames have been extinguished. At the same time, both Moxxie and Loona are a blushing mess, as they are very much embarrassed by what they heard, while Millie is seductively biting her lip and looks visibly turned on.

Blitzo: Umm... Lord Zarathos? About that phone call?

Zarathos: Stop. I don't even want to know. Let's just forget that it even happened. Anyway, now that I'm back, I'll personally handle getting this business of yours up and running again, as I'm going to be joining you guys and becoming a member of I.M.P. Although, there is one thing that I need all of your help with.

Moxxie: What is it that you need help with from us, sir?

Zarathos: Well, I'm sure that you are all aware of Charlie Morningstar's plan to help rehabilitate the Sinners here in the Pride Circle with her hotel idea. Now, I personally think that it's a waste of time, but she practically begged me to help her out, which made me think that I.M.P. also helps out these Sinners by killing the very people who had screwed them over when they were alive.

Blitzo: (starts smirking) I'm not really on board with the idea of helping out Lucifer's goody two shoes, but if it means that we get more business around here by "helping" out those Sinners at her hotel, then fuck it, let's do this!

Millie: That sounds like a great idea, Lord Zarathos.

Loona: There's also the chance that we'll finally get to meet the princess of Hell as well.

Moxxie: There's still one problem we have, and that's the advertisement. Our current commercial isn't good, and we don't have any money to put our business on a billboard.

Zarathos: Leave that to me; I'll handle the money issue as well as come up with a good commercial that will get everyone in Hell talking about it. Especially since this will show everyone that I have returned.

Blitzo: So, what's your idea?

Zarathos smirks as the scene then cuts to a couple of hours later, showing the new I.M.P. commercial.

Blitzo: Have you ever wanted your enemy dead? Are you tired of trying peace, resolution, forgiveness? Well then I have the solution for you! Give in to your fallen nature and let the I.M.P (gestures to the logo as it appears on screen, then disappears), the Immediate Murder Pros handle what you're too cowardly, or just too lazy to do.

The commercial cuts to show Blitzo, Zarathos, and Moxxie standing in front of their microphones, while the latter two are holding electric guitars. Loona is shown holding a bass guitar, and Millie is playing the drums as their song begins.

Zarathos/Blitzo/Moxxie: ♫Kill!♫

Blitzo: ♫Hate the sin and not the sinner. Or better yet, just kill the one you hate. We won't ask who's right or wrong here. Just that you give us time to calculate. Mmm, yeah, he should die.♫

Zarathos: ♫In a fire, in a flood, what's your desire? Through the eye or in the heart or on a pyre? Let's skip the terse formalities!♫

Zarathos/Blitzo/Moxxie: ♫Immediate Murder Pros, we aim to please! Taking life is not a game that all can play! A medication that not everyone can take! That's where we come in to save the day! You just have to pay!♫

Zarathos, Blitzo, Moxxie, and Loona then headbang before straightening up again.

Zarathos: ♫It's time to die! My mission's ending! Please look inside? Before your soul is mine! Before your soul is mine!♫

Moxxie: ♫Humanity's been rotting from within. With a graveyard made for their demise. A little lesson from Hell's denizens. Repent or suffer? You are running out of time.♫

Zarathos: ♫Turn the page and write a death wish in the note! Another name to the body count, I know! Peace was an option not too long ago! But where's the fun in that?♫

Zarathos/Blitzo/Moxxie: ♫Taking life is not a game that all can play! A medication that not everyone can take! That's where we come in to save the day! You just have to pay!♫

Zarathos, Blitzo, Moxxie, and Loona then headbang before straightening up again.

Zarathos: ♫It's time to die! My mission's ending! Please look inside? Before your soul is mine! Before your soul is mine!♫

The scene turns black as the song ends, and then the credits are shown.
_________________________________________

Chapter 1 is done and originally I had a different idea for opening, but I decided to go with my first idea instead. I also included Hatchet, who was originally a character from Viziepop's animated show called Zoophobia, but from I remembered that it was canceled and thus she put Hatchet as a cameo in her Hazbin Hotel series instead. Also, I wanted to show Zarathos' feelings regarding the idea of Sinners being redeemed and going into Heaven with him being against it as well as showing that he despises the idea of halos in Hell and angels in general. Oh and yes, there will be more people in this book that has their souls owned by Zarathos and for better clarification, but Zarathos is the leader of Imp City which will be explained as the story progresses. But anyway thank you for reading, please comment, vote, and suggest anything that you would like to see and I'll see you in the next chapter, Predator signing off.
