A/N: Thanks to Renowned-Wolf for helping with a few things.

Scene opens on you sitting in the hotel lobby with Vaggie and Angel while Charlie paces with KeeKee trotting after her.

Charlie: Okay. So the extermination is coming in a little less than six months instead of a year. No big deal. Just a little setback. Nothing we can't handle. Just angels cutting our timetable in half. But who needs a whole year to save souls? Am I right?! (Starts to panic)  And next time when they cut the time in half again, and again, we'll just handle it, right?!

Vaggie grabs Charlie, calming her down

Vaggie: Yes. We will.

Angel: Oh, please, ya had less then half a chance when you started all this salvation bullshit. And now... (phone vibrates with violent threating messages such as "fucking bitch") Ain't no silver lining this time toots.

Charlie: Sure there is! We just...have to look a little harder for it!

Y/N: I get you care about this, Charlie. But the rest of the Pride Ring is freaking out.

You turn your phone towards her and Vaggie, which shows multiple social media posts of people freaking out.

Angel: Check out the doomsday district.

He shows his phone as well before he gets a text from Valentino.

Charlie: Err, what is a...Donkey Show?

Angel panics and retreats the phone back.

Angel: Aah, heh, nothin'. My boss, Val, is just freaked out about the news too. Like I said, everyone's losin' their shit.

Vaggie: Yeah, that's true. Sinners are desperate. Maybe desperate enough to try anything to escape the extermination?

Charlie: (Gasps) This is the perfect time to recruit more sinners for the hotel!

Y/N: Uh, are you sure you want to go out in *this*?

Charlie: Well, it's not like people are just gonna show up on our doorstep -

She's cut off by a massive explosion. All of you look through a massive hole in the wall and see a massive zeppelin armed to the teeth piloted by a snake demon.

Sir Pentious: Show yourself,  Alasssstra. Come and face -

Pentious pauses for a moment when he notices Alastra absent from the freshly made hole. He then looks to see her sipping coffee from her "Oh, Deer" mug on the balcony of the second floor.

Sir Pentious: Oh there you are - Face my wrath!

Alastra: Who are you?

Sir Pentious: Who am I? Who am I?! I am the great Ssssssir Pentiousssss!

Alastra dissolves into fog as he descends to the ground, materializing aside you, Angel, Vaggie, and Charlie who are in the scene watching Sir Pentious's zeppelin.

Sir Pentious: Inventor, architect of dessstruction, villain extraordinaire!

Egg Bois: Ooh you tell 'em boss.

Y/N: He forgot "hammy, over-the-top Supervillain".

Niffty appears on Alastra's right shoulder, clearly starstruck.

Niffty: Ooooooh, he's a bad boy~

Alastra scoops Niffty up and drops her to the ground.

Alastra: Ha, well if all that's true, you'd think I'd have heard of you.

Sir Pentious: We've done battle, like... 20 times.

Alastra:

Alastra: Well, you must have been really bad at this.

Sir Pentious: Silence! Now cower! For when I've ssslain you, the almighty Vees will finally acknowledge me as their equal.

Niffty reappears on Alastra's shoulder.

Niffty: Ooh! Wait, who are the Vees?

Alastra: Oh, nobody important.

Cut to the Vees' headquarters. A large crowd is in front of a store as they watch an advertisement on the tvs facing the window showing off a spy drone.

Ad: New VoxTek designer voyeur scopes, Peeping on the neighbors has never been more stylish. VoxTek! Trust us with your money!

Crowd immediately enters the store and stampedes out with boxes with voyeur scopes. then cuts to random people watching their computers laptops and phones, and reveals their eyes signifying the work of hypnosis.

Ad: This week's episode of "Yeah, I Fucked Your Sister, So What?" is brought to you by VoxTek. Trust us with your entertainment!

Shifts to tapping fingers as we enter a large room with tvs showing off numerous consumers as "trust us" repeats and overlaps. electricity courses as Vox stands up from his chair laughing maniacally from his viewer's consumerism.

Vox: Muhahaha! Now that's good television!

Suddenly his screen-face shifts to reveal an icon of Velvette, signifying she's calling him with a clown horn ringtone.

Vox courses the call from his screen to his hands his hand via his electric powers and transfers it to one of his many screens to reveal Velvette in her studio, her hair in a large ponytail. Vox then sits down on his chair.

Vox: Hello there, Velvette! How are you this hellish morning?

Velvette: Oh, cut the shit, Vox. I need you up here now!

Vox looks to one of his screens as he gets his coffee cup and drinks from it.

Vox: Whatever could be the problem, my dear?

Velvette: Your little boy toy is wrecking my apartment, while I'm trying to pull together a show and-

off-screen we see several workers running and screaming, and objects being tossed, as Valentino is heard cussing.

Valentino: (off-screen) FUCKING BITCH!

Velvette: Just get your ass here, NOW! ...Damn it, Valentino!

The call ends, and Vox's smile fades away as he gets up sighing, fixing up his bowtie.

Vox: 'Oh god. Here I go, Valentino.' Just another fucking day with Val. Hey-hey-hey. Fuck my life.

Vox then walks up to a platform, which rises up.

Cut to an elevator with a smiling Vox with the world bubble saying "trust us!", before opening to reveal a frowning Vox in the same position, sighing, and then putting on a smile for a crowd of reporters that overlap one another before pointing their microphones to him.

Reporter: Mr. Vox! What are your thoughts about the new extermination deadline?

Vox: My dear people! We at VoxTek Enterprises have always been at the forefront of innovation. And now, with this new oncoming threat, we are shifting our focus, to your protection. We are pleased to announce-

The screen zooms to him and an ad featuring the VoxTek logo, now gold and with angelic wings, with the tagline reading-

Vox: VoxTek Angelic Security is coming soon! Trust us, with YOUR safety.

Vox uses his left eye to hypnotize the crowd the same way as his consumers.

Assistant: Uh sir, when did we begin working on Angelic Security?

Vox: Thirty seconds ago. (walks off) Try to get that bitch Carmilla on the books and cancel all my appointments today. I have a fire to put out upstairs.

Cutting to Velvette's studio. The staff cleans everything up as she looks to four designers holding up dresses to show her.

Velvette: Ugh. No. Unacceptable. You're fired. What is this? WRIST RUFFLES?! Is this 1750?! BURN IT like the witches who wore it!

As she sends the designer away, Vox appears next to her

Vox: Oh, Velvette! I can see you're busy. Tell me, where's our hot-headed friend now?

Velvette: Up in his tower, waiting for a flat-faced prince to calm him down!

Vox: (sighs) And uh, what's got him so out of sorts today?

Velvette: Who knows? But he tore up my best model! And you know, the show can't wait for that unlucky bitch to pull herself back together! Melissa! Get over here!

Melissa nervously runs onto the platform, and Velvette uses her overlord powers to change her outfit by swiping her hand, one after another until she spots the one she wants.

Velvette: No. No. Hideous. I want to die. Eww. (gasp) Yes! That's the one.

Vox: Ahh, looks like you have everything under control here.

Velvette: Of course, I do! Fuck you! (flips him off) Now shoo! Take care of the piss baby!

Vox goes upstairs and is greeted by two moth demons who open the door for him. Once he enters. he finds Valentino sitting on his couch surrounded by a fog of red smoke. When Val notices Vox, he sits up with fury in his eyes

Valentino: Fucking FINALLY! (throws drink) Kitty! Another drink!

The Robo-Fizzie next to him nods as it quickly heads off screen and re-appears with the drink.

Valentino: Ugh! Can you believe what that piece of shit did? THE UNGRATEFUL WHORE!!!

As he speaks, he tosses the drink at Vox, who moves away making the drink, hits the door, and shatters on the floor.

Vox: Uh, which whore are we talking about this time?

Valentino: (gets up) Fucking Angel Dust! (walks up to him) Who the hell else would I be talking about?! (walks past him) That fucking SLUT walked out on me! (turns to Vox) ME! I fucking made him! (Vox walks a little way away) Without me, he's just a bag of meat with some mildly entertaining holes.

Vox: Oh! Angel quit?

Valentino: NO! He didn't fucking quit! It's worse! (takes Vox's phone) He MOVED!!!

As he says that, he tosses Vox's phone to the wall making it shatter in half.

Valentino: He thinks he can just walk in here, work, and then go home somewhere else? Can you FUCKING believe that?! (walks to closet) He thinks he can run off and shack up with Lucifer's bimbo daughter!

Vox: Angel is... living with Lucifer's daughter?

Valentino: YEAH! That BITCH Chalkie or Chandler, or I dunno- Remember that Hotel your Drone saw? That was her's, and

As he speaks, he opens the closet full of guns, drugs, and pictures including a poster of himself. Valentino brings up two long pistol guns: a long revolver and a semi-pistol.

Valentino: (in a more relaxed tone) Which of these makes me look sexier? 

Vox: Heh. What are you doing, Val? You're not going over there.

As he speaks, his left eye changes to show his simmering anger, but Valentino is busy loading his guns.

Valentino: That slippery twink is gonna remember who owns him. I'm gonna FUCK everyone in that rancid shit hole, I swear to god!

Vox: (distorted) VAL-

A/N: Me when Stella Apologists show up.

Vox: (calms down) Hehe. Think about it.

Vox then walks Valentino towards the window, taking away one of his guns and putting it in his pocket.

Vox: Our brand is, perfection. And what do you think chasing whores around town will, do for our image?

Valentino: Um.....fuck it up?

A stereotypical 'winning' ding is played

Vox: Right! Do you want people thinking you can't control your employees?

Valentino: No!

Vox: Exactly! And hey, you still have him under contract. He isn't going anywhere! SO...you should...

Valentino: Do nothing?

A sound like winning at a casino is played

Vox: Great idea! Now that's why they pay you the (pinches cheek) Big bucks.

Valentino: Ugh. But I really wanted to shoot someone.

As he speaks, Valentino gets a cigarette holder, and Vox lights it with his electricity powers.

Vox: Well, lemme call up the lowest earners this month. (walks to TVs)

Valentino: Ohh, you know me too well. (chuckles and blows smoke) Ya know....Angel isn't the only one spending time at this Ratty Hotel with the devil's princesa.

Vox: Oh? Who else is there? Someone who, owes you money?

Valentino: (Chuckles) Someone who owes us much more than money ...the Radio Demoness is there.

Upon hearing those words, electricity courses through Vox's head, and he scratches the desk so hard it leaves scratch marks. Vox made small ominous chuckles before turning to Valentino, two red lines appear on the left side of his lower lip.

Vox: (distorted) What did you just say?

Valentino: You heard me.

Vox: Alastra...(walks to him) came back...and she is with Lucifer's (glitches) daughter, and that wasn't the (grabs him by the collar) FIRST FUCKING THING YOU TOLD ME?!?!?!

Valentino: (frees himself from grip) Hey! killing Alastra is your kink.

As he speaks, he walks to the desk and turns on the television. Vox teleports to the center screen, which is a recording from a VoxTek Voyeur scope high in the sky. The scene, from a drone point of view, showing Alastora and you using your powers to attack Sir Pentious' zeppelin.

Sir Pentious: Arrrgh! Oh! Please! STOP!

Y/N and Alastra: (cackling)

Charlie: Um, Alastra? Y/N? I think he's had enough...

Angel: Nah. He's still got a few more hits in him.

You conjure what looks like a demonic King Kong, which completely demolishes the Zeppelin and Sir Pentious falls out with an Egg Boi, who splats by Charlie's feet.

Alastra: (twirling her staff) Thanks for another forgettable experience.

Sir Pentious: Thank you... for letting your guard down!

Using his tail, he grabs a bit of Alastra's dress.

Sir Pentious: Aha! Yah! Oh, shit...

Sir Pentious looks up to see Alastra's shadow transform in front of him and Alastra apparently makes an elk bugle. The next shot shows a massive green explosion as Sir Pentious is seen flying off to the city screaming as he disappears from sight.

Alastor: Well, it looks as though I need a visit to the tailor! Bye, darling. (kisses you) Best of luck, chums. (walks off)

Vaggie: Wait, you're leaving?! Alastra! We need your help! We need you to do your job.

Y/N: (gestures to the hole on the wall) We need a wall.

Alastra: Of course! Can't let my new project fall into disrepair already. What would the papers say?!

With a snap of her fingers, black ink demons resembling enemies from Bendy and the Ink Machine appear with construction tools as Alastra walks away. Angel takes an interest and looks at one of the larger muscular demons, shoving Vaggie away as he walks up to him.

Angel Dust: (Giggles) Hey, sweet cheeks. Whatcha doin' later? I love me a man with a giant ...tool.

The one female in the group presses her chest against you seductively.

You blush profusely while Vaggie rolls her eyes and Charlie looks a little jealous.

The screen zooms out to reveal Valentino scowling at the current events, leaning his face against the screen.

Valentino: See?! Look how he flirts with that guy, and he's not even paying! Who is that? I'm gonna fucking kill his whole fucking family! Vox? (slams his fist on the table) VOX!

Vox was paying little attention, as his left pupil turns into a tilde as he eyes Alastra leaving, her appearance glitching and out of focus as the screen becomes a bit static.

https://youtu.be/Ai4eh_OCxvw

Vox: (glitches) That FUCKER is back!

Valentino: Yeah, I thought she was gone for good too!

Vox: It's been seven years!

Valentino: You still pissed she almost beat you that time?

Vox: Uh, FUCK YOU!

Valentino: Just saying.

Vox: Things have changed a lot since she left town!

Valentino: That's for sure.

Vox: I gotta send a message of who's really in charge of things now!

Vox's face fills the screen as Valentino laughs in the background. The next shot shows Vox grinning as he marches to his chair.

Vox: ♫ Welcome home! ♫

♫ I'm gonna make you wish that you stayed gone! ♫

[As Vox sings, electricity courses through his arm as he sits on his chair, and turns to face the numerous screens.]

Vox: ♫ Say hello to a new status quo, ♫

[Vox presses a big red button, and 4 cords latch themselves to the ports on the back of his head, connecting himself to his TV networks.]

Vox: ♫ Everyone knows that there's a brand-new dawn, turn the TV on! ♫

Director: Camera, speeds, rolling in three, two...

Chorus: ♫ Wel-come to the show! ♫

Vox: ♫ Top of the hour and we're discussing a certain has-been who has been spotted cavorting around town after a seven-year absence, ♫

♫ Did anybody miss her, did anybody notice? ♫

♫ More on tonight's program. ♫

♫ So, the Radio Demon is back in town! ♫

♫ Why is she hanging around? ♫

♫ What does that mean for your family? ♫

♫ Well, handily, I've got good news! ♫

♫ She's a loser, a fossil, and I don't mean to sound hostile, ♫

Vox & Chorus: ♫ But the demon is a coward! ♫

Vox: ♫ You can take that as gospel. ♫

♫ Pulling my viewers? Impossible! ♫

♫ I'm visual, she's barely audible! ♫

♫ Stop giving her the time of day! ♫

♫ Don't listen to a word she'd say. ♫

♫ I hope she had a nice vacay! ♫

Vox & Chorus: ♫ But she should have stayed away! ♫

[Cut to Alastra who had just finished getting her coat tailored. She notices the crowd watching the advertisement of Vox. She smiles and walks away with an idea as Vox continues singing.]

Vox: ♫ While she hid in radio, we pivoted to video! [pulls out an uncooked bloodied deer head from an oven caked in blood] Now her medium is getting bloody rare! ♫

[In a hallway in V Tower, Vox jumps, twirls and then pulls Valentino and Velvette towards him]

♫ Hell's been better since she split, ♫

♫ Where's she been? ♫

♫ Who gives a shit?! ♫

[Cuts to Alastra making her reappearance, as she starts her radio broadcast from a radio station attached to the top corner of the Hazbin Hotel.]

Alastra: ♫ Salutations! ♫

♫ Good to be back on the air. ♫

♫ Yes, I know it's been a while since someone with style treated Hell to a broadcast. ♫

♫ Sinners rejoice! ♫

Vox: ♫ What a dated voice! ♫

Alastra: ♫ Instead of a clout chasing mediocre video podcast. ♫

Vox: COME ON!

Alastra: ♫ Is Vox insecure, pursuing allure? ♫

♫ Flitting between this fad and that. ♫

♫ Is nothing working? ♫

Vox: IGNORE HER CHIRPING!

Alastra: ♫ Every day he's got a new format! ♫

Vox: YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE FUTURE!

Vox & Chorus: ♫ She's the shit that comes before that! ♫

Alastra: ♫ Is Vox as strong as he purports? ♫

♫ Or is it based on his support? ♫

♫ He'd be powerless without the other Vees! ♫

Valentino and Velvette:

Vox: Oh, PLEASE.

Alastra: ♫ And here's the sugar on the cream. ♫

♫ He asked ME to join his team! ♫

Vox: Hold on!

Alastra: ♫ I said no, and now he's pissy! That's the tea. ♫

As Alastra continues with her radio broadcast, Vox gets so pissed that his screen face starts to glitch and crash as he gets angrier.

Vox: [Glitches.] ♫ You oold timey BITCH! I'll show y-you suffering! ♫

Alastra: ♫ Uh oh, the TV is buffering! ♫

[Vox couldn't handle his anger, causing him to overload his circuits with static electricity.]

Vox: [Signal breaking up.] ♫ I'LL DESTROY YOOOOU♫

[Vox's screen face and voice overloads and crashes, before Vox involuntarily lets out an outburst that overloads everything from the TV screens to Valentino and Velvette's phone to everywhere in Pentagram City, causing a citywide blackout with the exception of the Hazbin Hotel.]

Alastra: ♫ I'm afraid you've lost your signal. ♫

[the camera zooms in on the hotel, and then zooms into Alastra's radio station]

♫ Let's begin. ♫

[Alastra slowly turns into her true demon form with every sentence.]

♫ I'm gonna make you wish that I stayed gone! ♫

[Alastra puts down her staff for the first time in the series]

♫ Tune on in. ♫

♫ When I'm done, your status quo will know it's race is run! ♫

♫ Oh, this will be fun! ♫

Alastra makes one last evil laugh before cutting off Vox's signal throughout the city, leaving the Overlord dismayed that Alastra is still as popular and powerful as she was last time.

Vox: FUU-UU-UCK!

The scene cuts to the emergency meeting with Vox, Velvette, and Valentino to discuss a matter with Alastra as Kitty passes out drinks to each of them.

Vox: We have a problem. Alastra is getting close to little princess Morningstar, so our main concern now is ensuring that no deal is ever struck between Lucifer's *slams the table* BRAT and that smiling freak!

Velvette: Well, how exactly are we supposed to stop it?

Valentino is putting glue on his revolver to decorate with glitter and marbles.

Valentino: Put something inside them. That's how I get the bitches to behave.

Vox: Yeah. Well, maybe someone on the inside isn't such a bad idea. Do you think Angel would?

Valentino: That lanky prick won't even return my calls.

Vox: We need someone who Little Miss Bleeding Heart would take in.

Velvette: Someone...pathetic, desperate, with no direct ties to us?

Valentino: I employ every down on their luck loser this side of Hell. Who the fuck is left?

Vox: (Scoffs) I think, I have... JUST the one.

As Vox slowly turns around, the sharks in the shark tank swim up to his shoulders, his right-hypnotic eye gleaming with a sinister grin for a plan he has in store.

Back at the hotel, Alastra's black and white demons are currently fixing the hole in the wall as Charlie and Vaggie returns. Charlie throws herself onto a couch, exhausted.

Y/N: Any luck?

Vaggie: (Sighs) Not a single new recruit.

Angel: Yeah well, who would wanna use their last days not fucking and fighting?

As Angel checks his phone, Vaggie hears a knock on the front door. She walks over to it and opens the door, only to find Sir Pentious behind it, holding his hat.

Sir Pentious: Why, hello my dear—

Sir Pentious is cut off by Vaggie punching him in the face. He falls when Vaggie brought out her spear at him. Sir Pentious cowers in fear with the tip barely at his neck, and held a peace sign gesture.

Sir Pentious: Wait, wait, wait! I come in peace. 

Vaggie: What are you doing here?

Charlie appears behind Vaggie.

Charlie: Vaggie, what's the problem? (gasps) Oh! Hello again!

Sir Pentious: I didn't come looking for a fight. I uhh.. I heard that you're helping people, people who want to be better?

Charlie lets out a gasp and runs over to grabs his hand and leads him to the door of the hotel.

Charlie: (gasps) You heard right! Welcome to our home of healing, our resort of restoration, our-

You appear from the door and cut off Charlie.

Y/N: Charlie, I really don't think this is a good idea. This guy was trying to kill us just a couple hours ago, and you want to bring him in to live with us?!

Charlie: Absolutely! This place is about second chances, and who deserves one more than this slithery... slippery... special little man!

Angel: (To Vaggie) Aren't you supposed to protect this place?

Charlie:

Vaggie: (Sighs) I guess he's not much of a threat without the war machine, (Sir Pentious' cobra head lifts with anticipation) or even with the war machine. (Sir Pentious' cobra head flaps down with depression, sighing)

Charlie hugs Vaggie tightly, lifting her up and twirling her around.

Charlie: Oh! Thank you thank you thank you thank you! Sir Pentious! Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel!

Charlie leads Sir Pentious to the door inside of the hotel.

Sir Pentious: Oh no darling! Thank you! You won't regret this.

Y/N: Eh, I give you until the end of the week.

Charlie gives Sir Pentious the tour of the hotel, introducing Husk to him, and showing the wall he blow up before it was fixed.

Charlie: So, this is the bar and the bartender. This is the curtain, and this is the new wall after you broke the last one, heh, and oh! Oh! This is the-

Vaggie grabs Charlie to calm her down again.

Vaggie: Babe, you don't have to show him every detail.

Charlie: Sorry, I'm just so excited to have our first real guest!

Y/N: Excuse me? What the hell are Angel and I, then?

Vaggie goes to tell you off before you make your features more demonic and she backs off.

Charlie: Well, you and Angel are an important part of our family here, Y/N. But you uhm, uh...

Vaggie: Sleep around with multiple women, still work a job that involves you murdering people, constantly bring up that you're only here because Charlie asked you to be, and have never once tried to improve? 

Y/N: It's not "sleeping around" if we're dating, and everyone IMP gets contracted to kill has been a complete scumbag. It's not like we go on random shooting sprees! ...Except that one time at an Opera House, but I blame those fucking Cherubs!

Charlie: What she means is, it's just nice to have someone interested for once.

As Charlie walks back to Sir Pentious, you look down at Vaggie's criticism and Charlie's unintentional dismissal of you.

Niffty is seen playing with Keekee with a string when Charlie and Sir Pentious approach. Keekee hisses at the sight of Sir Pentious and scatters away while Niffty turns to meet him.

Charlie: Over here we have our maid Niffty.

Niffty: (Gasps) The bad boy is back!

Niffty gets up on Sir Pentious and holds his collars, looking at him with insanity in her red eye and a very sadistic smile, which creeps out Sir Pentious.

Niffty: (creepy whisper) Never leave me again.

Charlie: We're about 80% sure she's harmless.

Y/N: (whisper to Sir Pentious) Lock your door and check your vents at night.

Charlie: And over here we have- (nearly bumps into Alastra) Oh! Uh, Alastra! Our gracious facility manager! You've met our newest guest Sir Pentious...hehe..

Alastra: Ah yes! You're the one who ruined my dress! (in a sinisterly tone) I definitely remember you now.

Sir Pentious gulps nervously.

Charlie: Well, I guess this is a great time for your first lesson! (Clears throat) "How to apologize!" The first step to becoming a better person is to admit when you are wrong, why don't you give it a try?

Sir Pentious: Yes..uhm.. Ms uhm.. Radio Demoness ma'am, please forgive me for attacking you and ruining your very lovely dress.. uhm.. here.

As a token of apology, Sir Pentious hands back the small fabric he tore from Alastra's dress. Alastra takes it and inspects the damage.

Alastra: Ah-Ho! Not many people have been able to take even this much off me, it must have meant quite a lot to you.

Despite being genuine, Alastra spontaneously combusts the fabric tear into green flames, leaving Sir Pentious and Charlie stunned.

The scene cuts to a group gathering introducing Sir Pentious to the hotel.

Charlie: Now, with a new resident, I think it's important we all get to know each other! So we are going to play a little game. Everyone, follow me. My name is Charlie *claps twice* I like to sing! *claps twice* and when we get to know each other it's the greatest thing! *claps twice*

Sir Pentious: My name's Sir Pentious *claps twice* I like to build *claps twice* and despite my stupid Egg Bois, I think I'm very skilled! *claps twice*

Y/N: This is stupid.

Charlie: This- is not- stupid! *claps twice* It's just the game! *claps twice* Sir Pentious did it well so now please try to do the same! *claps twice*

Angel: I am too sober for this.

Vaggie: Well, get used to it and learn how to play, this is gonna be your whole day! *claps twice*

The next scene cuts to a act with Angel wearing a trench coat and a hat as he reads a script. Sir Pentious is also acting as a innocent child wearing a sailor suit, licking a comically large lollipop.

Angel: "Oh, I'm a bad man on the streets who never got enough hugs, now, where's an innocent kid I can sell crack to?" Wow, who wrote this?

Charlie: It's great, right? Keep going!

Angel: "Hey you."

Sir Pentious: "Who, me?"

Angel: "Yeah, you look like a kid who could use some... devil's dandruff??" Oh, for fuck's sake.

Sir Pentious: "Not me! I have to go home and study!"

Angel: "Come on kid, it'll make you cool like me ...the crackhead."

Sir Pentious: "The only cool thing here is to say no to drugs! Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to not have sexual intercourse before marriage!"

triumphant trumpet sting

Charlie: Yes! (stands and applauds) Oh, Bravo! Bravo!

However, you get pissed, knowing that this is not how people act and reminded of your own bad experiences in life.

Y/N: What the fuck is this bullshit?! You honestly think playing pretend will rehabilitate people?! 

Angel: Finally someone says it.

Vaggie: (getting in your face) Hey, you agreed to-

Y/N: I've just about fucking had it with you!

Charlie: Vaggie, Y/N! Now, Y/N, this will take time. 

Y/N: More like an eternity at this rate.

Charlie: You have to-

Y/N: You need to realize that people, especially bad people, do not act like this. Angel, you were in the mob, did anyone act like this?

Angel: Not even fucking close. Saturday morning cartoon characters don't act like this.

Y/N: In fact, some of the nicest people turn out to be the worst people of all.

Charlie: What do you-

You pull up your shirt, showing various scars.

Y/N: This is what my mother's "love" looks like.

Angel, Charlie, Husk, and Sir Pentious look horrified. Alastra's smile falters. Although Vaggie doesn't say it, she feels bad for being hard on you and stares at the floor.

You show a few other scars.

Y/N: These are what I got for calling my sister a whore for sleeping with her teachers to become cheer captain and get a passing grade. Bottom line, you don't know shit about people.

You start storming upstairs.

Charlie: Y/N,-

Y/N: (off-screen) Good night! (slams door)

Cut to a little later. Angel enters his room, accidentally throwing his coat on Fat Nuggets, before lying down on the bed with a glum expression. He looks at his phone and reluctantly plays a string of disturbing voice mails from Valentino, showcasing his abusive personality.

https://youtu.be/oCJNdw1TcGQ

Valentino's signature smoke comes through the phone and his disembodied voice is heard.

Valentino: (dead serious) You actually think you can change? Addict trash like you doesn't change. I'll see you soon, baby.

Angel sighs as Fat Nuggets gets on the bed next to him.

Angel: ...Sorry, not now, Fat Nuggets.

He sadly walks out of his room and grabs a bottle from the bar, chugging straight from the bottle.

Y/N: (off-screen) You couldn't sleep either?

Angel startles and turns see you with a rum and coke.

Angel: I...yeah. You don't trust Pentious either, right?

Y/N: Oh, fuck no. I don't know what the slithery fucker came here hoping to achieve, but I'm not buying what he's selling. 

You sip your drink as you bringing up Charlie makes Angel reflect on what happened earlier.

Angel: So, uh... feel free to tell me to shut the fuck up, but what ended up happening with your mother?

Y/N: She was always abusive; nothing I ever did was good enough for her, while she made it abundantly clear that my sister was the golden child in her eyes. She also hated me for being a geek while my sister was a whore who slept her way out of trouble all the time, partied like it was 1999, and lied to, blackmailed, and manipulated people to get ahead. 

You take a long sip of your drink.

Y/N: My dad is a Green Beret,  he was overseas a lot and my mom was a pretty good actor. But one night a couple years ago, he finally saw for himself just how bad things were. He demanded a divorce and mom went crazy, coming at him with frying-pan. We fought back and my mom died by cracking her head against the fireplace. Dad disowned my sister right after.

Angel: Oh. ...Shit. I'm really sorry, man. 

Y/N: ...Thanks, Angel.

The two of you hear a commotion and go check it out, finding Charlie's office door opened, and look inside. There, you discover that Sir Pentious is setting up a small camera in one of the bookshelves, a camera that belongs to Vox. Angel realizes what he's been doing and slams the door open.

Angel: You slippery little shit!

Sir Pentious: (yelps)

Angel: You're working for the Vees? We fucking knew there was something shitty about you.

Sir Pentious: I don't know what you're talking about!...whore bug!

Angel, sufficiently angered, tackles Sir Pentious on the ground. He punches him in the face before wrestling with him.

Sir Pentious: Get your aggressively average body...OFF OF ME!

Sir Pentious's eyes spiral hypnotic powers to him. Angel becomes momentarily hypnotized.

Angel: Fuck!

You charge forward, bodyslaming Sir Pentious and slamming his face to the floor. You wrestle with him on the ground, having your eyes squeezed shut to prevent him from trying to hypnotize you as well.

Charlie and Vaggie walk in, having been woken up by the fighting.

Charlie: (Yawns) What's going on?

Y/N: This over-the-top asshole is a traitor!

Sir Pentious: (throwing you off) Preposterous! I would never betray you. You... are my best friends!

Sir Pentious hugs both girls.

Angel: Uh huh, then explain this!

Angel lifts off one of the books to reveal a camera, much to Charlie's shock. Sir Pentious realizes that his cover is blown and scurries away. He brings out his wrist watch to make contact with Vox.

Sir Pentious: Ah! Ah! Abort! Abort! S.O.S! Agent Pentious in need of immediate evacuation!

Vox immediately picks up.

Vox: Pentious? Wait... you were caught?!? It hasn't even been, a day!

Sir Pentious: Please! You've got to get me out of here!

Vox: I can't believe we thought you could handle even something this simple! Do us a favor, if they don't kill you, go ahead and do it yourself! You MISERABLE FAILURE!

Sir Pentious: (crying)  I... I... just make it quick I guess...not that I deserve it.

Sir Pentious lies on the ground, with Vaggie holding a spear ready to pierce the skull.

Vaggie: Gladly.

A/N: You sing the same verses as Angel and Vaggie.

Charlie: Good first day.

Y/N: Hey, Charlie? (ears flatten) ...I'm sorry about earlier. I didn't mean to yell, and I said some stuff I shouldn't have. 

Charlie: It's fine, Y/N. I get you were upset, and you had a right to be. If it helps, maybe you could help plan our next activity?

Y/N: (expression softens) I'd like that.

The two of you hug.

Vaggie: ...-_-. That's longer than friends hug.

You and Charlie jerk apart, blushing.

Charlie: Let's get some rest.

As all of leave, the wrist watch communicator is left in the office, Alastra appears from the shadow of the dark hallway with a malevolent smile. She comes and picks up the watch before contacting Vox on the watch.

Vox: WHAT?!? O_O

Alastra: You'll have to try harder than that next time, ol' pal!

Alastra crushes the watch with her bare hand as Vox incoherently rages at her as the watch becomes incapable of creating audio, before Alastra retreats back into the darkness, chuckling.

Meanwhile, in your room, your phone buzzes with a notification.

Y/N: O_O. Who is "Velvette" and why is she dm'ing me nudes?!

End of Chapter.
