Ch. 1: Party Aftermath
At the V's tower, Vox and Valentino were constantly checking their phones to see if they can reach Velvette, when the elevator dinged and the slightly drunk girl stumbled out with a green Mammon shirt, sunglasses, and beads around her neck.
Velvette: Woah... I drank WAY too much.
Vox: There you are! Where in Satan's name did you disappear to!?
Velvette: None of your fucking business!
She was so drunk... she pointed at a plant.
Velvette:... I'm not pointing at you, am I?
Vox: Nope, that...is a plant doll-face. I'm MORE curious now, how you managed to completely disappear from the ring. Val and I couldn't sense you.
Velvette: That's on a need to know basis and you don't need to know.
Velvette suddenly felt her drinks come back up. She started gagging and started to throw up into the plant. After a couple moments she finally stopped and stood up, wiping the vomit from her mouth.
Velvette:... I'm going to my room.
Vox: Where did you get the Mammon shirt...and sunglasses?
Val: And the beads, amorcíta...
Velvette just flipped them off before walking to her room. The sound of a door being slammed shut and locked could be heard.
Vox: I'm getting tired of these little games she's playing. This is the fourth time this year she's disappeared for days on end
Val: Perhaps you could try tracing her location the day disappeared...BEFORE she vanished.
Vox: It didn't do much before, as she disappeared on the edge of the Pride Ring, might as well check and see if something is in that area, but I don't think that will do much.
Val: Do you have cameras in that location?
Vox: Yeah, but there's not much there, I can figure out why she would head there.
Val: ... Isn't that where that tacky redemption hotel is?
Vox:... There's no way Velvette is trying to redeem herself at that dumb waste of space.
Val: The king of hell is there, perhaps she has some type of deal with him to get merchandise from other rings.
Vox knew that sounded dumb, but it's the only thing he could think of that would be a reason for her to go there.
(Line Break)
In Velvette's room, Velvette was going through her camera roll, looking at all the pictures she took of her and Charlie at the concert in the Greed Ring. Her phone buzzes and Charlie's face pops up. She decided to answered it.
Velvette: Hey, Char... you get back to the hotel?
Charlie: Of course! You weren't too hungover to forget about removing your merchandise before going in the tower, right?
Velvette looked down at her shirt.
Velvette: I'm a fashionista, of course I did...n't.
Charlie: ... You're still wearing it aren't you?
Velvette:... No.
Charlie: I can tell when you're lying...Oh! And Vaggie says hi and...what? I can't make her but I'll ask...
Velvette: What is it?
Charlie: Vaggie would like it if you eased up on Carmilla a bit...
Velvette: I mean, I could... it's not like I was trying to get into a bit of a fight with her, it just kinda happened. Still, what's the point of being a weapons dealer if you're afraid to use your weapons?
Charlie: Well-hey!
Vaggie snatches the phone from her.
Vaggie: Velvette...mamá, as the ONLY major source of the most lethal weapons in Hell, does not want to draw the attention of HEAVEN to her. Unless that's what YOU are TRYING to do.
Velvette: Oh, hey little angel, how're ya doing? Are you happier since Carmine was added to your name?
Vaggie growled.
Charlie gently takes the phone back.
Charlie: Velvette, no teasing my girlfriend. You know that...and since Carmilla is her family can you at least be a little less...pushy to her? She is a single mother running an entire district and business herself. If not for her then for her daughters...so they don't have to worry about their mom.
Velvette: Fine. Fine... I'm too hungover to argue.
Charlie: Thanks, that's why you're my favorite little sister.
Velvette: I'm your only sister.
Charlie: Which is why you don't get a choice in that matter! Oh, and dad still wants to know the whole conversation that happened at heaven's gates.
Velvette:... please no.
Charlie: I know, I know...I just figured I'd let you know. He's STILL furious and is trying to contact them about it.
Velvette: I don't want to talk or think about that annoying saint small dick.
Vaggie can be heard cracking up in the background.
Charlie: I think Vaggie shares your sentiment.
Velvette: Uh, huh, I'm sleeping this hangover off, so I'm ending this call.
Charlie: Okay sis! Call me when your hangover is gone, and tell Melissa I said hello!
Velvette: Yeah, yeah, whatever.
Velvette ended the call and laid in bed.
Velvette: I still can't believe I have a sister.
(Line Break)
Charlie: *giggles and scoops Vaggie up and spins with her* I still can't believe I have a sister!
Vaggie chuckled.
Vaggie: Charlie, you've known about her for longer than you've known me. It shouldn't be that shocking still.
Charlie: It's just so EXCITING!
Angel: You mind keeping it down? Trying to have a drink in peace, I had a long night last night, not everyone gets to go watch concerts for free.
Charlie: Oh! I got that thing you asked for Angel!
She hands him a Mammon onesie for Fat nuggets. Angel grabbed it with one hand and hugged Charlie with the three others.
Angel: It's perfect!
Charlie: Well, I had to do something nice for one of my friends.
Vaggie: *snickers* She got one for Keekee too...
Vaggie pointed to Keekee, who was standing in a onesie, before flopping onto her side.
Husk:... She looks thrilled.
Charlie: I got one for you Husk!
Husk: Uh... I think I hear Alastor calling me! Husk quickly ran away.
Charlie: Wait! I need to make sure I got the right size! Charlie chases after him.
Vaggie: Charlie, remember what we said about personal space!
Vaggie chased after them, and Angel decided to see how this ends.
Charlie: Huuuuuuuuussskk! Pleeeeeeeeaaaaassseeeee! You said you would be happy with anything I got you!
Husk: I changed my mind!
