Chapter 65 – A Plan and a Secret
Angel, who had just finished recording the commercial with Husk, was talking to Vaggie when his phone rang. He then looked at the message and his face turned serious.
Vaggie, seeing this, asked:
— What's wrong, Angel? Are you okay?
Angel stood up and smiled and said:
— It's nothing, really. I have to go take care of something from work, so I can't stay any longer.
He said then quickly left the hotel.
Husk said:
— What the hell got into that lunatic?
Vaggie said:
— Well, I don't know, but it must be really important for him to leave in such a hurry.
She then smiled and said excitedly:
— Well, but that doesn't matter now. We finished the commercial! Now all we have to do is wait for Charlie to arrive. She's going to be so happy with this.
Razan approached and said:
— Well, I'm not so sure about that. I think she must be super depressed right now.
Vaggie looked at Razan as he approached and asked while shaking his shoulders. She looked at him and said:
— Did something happen to her? Tell me right now!
Razan placed his hand on her head and said:
— Calm down first. Do you think if she were in danger I wouldn't have already gone to save her?
Vaggie calmed down and took a deep breath.
Razan smiled and said, stroking her hair:
— Charlie is fine. She just had a setback with her redemption dream because Adam was more of an asshole than expected. But since this is her project, I think it's better to let her tell you herself. And then you can relax: I wouldn't let anything happen to her.
Vaggie, hearing this, smiled and said:
— Yes, thank you for taking such good care of her.
Razan smiled and said:
— Of course. Whether it's Charlie or you. After all, it's hard to find people who can be true friends in Hell. So when we find them, we have to protect them, right?
Vaggie stared at Razan smiling, not knowing what to say. After all, she hadn't thought that he also considered her important and a friend.
Husk, seeing this scene, said angrily:
— How disgusting. Can you please stop showing your love?
Vaggie then noticed Razan's hand in her hair. She then pulled away a bit embarrassed.
Razan said:
— Sorry, Vaggie. It's just that I always calmed Charlie down like this and it became kind of a habit of mine. I apologize if it bothers you.
Vaggie, seeing him apologizing seriously, sighed tiredly and said:
— It doesn't bother me. It's just kind of weird. I'm not used to this kind of comfort.
Razan said:
— I understand.
He then smiled and said:
— Next time, I'll be gentler so you can get used to it.
Vaggie said:
— You want a next time? I really don't know what to say about you.
Razan smiling said:
— Well, you can say I'm a good friend or that I'm the coolest dragon in Hell. The options are many.
Vaggie smiled and said:
— Or I can say you're the laziest in Hell. That's also a good option. What do you think?
Razan said:
— Well, you got me there.
On the other side, Angel arrived at a building. Angel entered and thought:
What does Val want with me here? Calling me at this hour. Well, who am I kidding? It's sex. What else could he want from me?
He then went looking for Val, but when he entered the building, he lost his senses and was led to a room under control.
Arriving there were Vox, Velvet, and Valentino.
Vox then looked at the controlled Angel and said:
— Sit down, Angel. You're going to tell us everything now.
Valentino shouted angrily:
— I hope your plan works. I lent you one of my best porn actors for this. I don't want you breaking my toys, understood?
Velvet said:
— Valentino, stop the drama. We all agreed to use Angel to spy on the hotel. After all, that place has already gathered many powerful beings like that black dragon, the princess of Hell, and now even Alastor. We need to know what they're planning.
Vox said:
— Yes. Whether it's the princess or that dragon, we must find a way to discover their weaknesses to destroy them. Or at least destroy their alliance so we can execute future plans about that place. Especially so I can finally kill that damn Alastor.
Valentino said:
— Yeah, yeah. You've already said that. That's why I agreed to the plan.
Vox said:
— Well, now no more interruptions. Let's see what Angel managed to gather on the first day.
Vox looked at Angel and said:
— So, Angel, tell me everything you discovered about the dragon and the princess.
Angel then began to tell everything about Razan and Charlie that he saw and heard.
After a while, he finished telling everything.
Vox said:
— I understand. So it seems the situation is more complicated than I imagined. They treat each other like friends, huh? Interesting.
Valentino said:
— Interesting is my ass. Now it just got harder. So do you have any plan?
Vox, Velvet said angrily:
— If we want to execute our plans, they can't be together.
Vox said:
— Well, my original plan was to place a spy near the dragon, but now with this news that he can't be touched by dirty people, that means I can only use my plan B.
Valentino smoked his cigarette and blew and said:
— And what is your plan B?
Vox smiling then told them.
After a while, Valentino smiled:
— I'm in to help you with this. I love the thrill this plan is going to cause.
Velvet said:
— We just have to be careful so none of them find out or instead of them killing each other when the plan is done, they'll join together to kill us.
Vox said:
— I understand the danger of this plan, but rest assured: no one besides us will know about the plan.
He then grabbed Angel and threw him at Valentino and said:
— Well, now that he was useful, you can have fun with him so he doesn't suspect anything.
Valentino said, grabbing Angel:
— Ah, yes. I'm going to enjoy this a lot. It's been a little while since we played.
He said looking at Angel.
On the other side, at the hotel, Charlie in front of the door sighed and said:
— Come on, Charlie. You can do this. It's just telling them that the extermination is coming in half a year earlier. It's easy… ah, who am I kidding? Everyone's going to hate me.
She then heard a voice:
— Correction: I'm not going to hate you and I don't think Vaggie or Loona will hate you either.
She then looked up and saw Razan smiling at her. He then said:
— Well, let's go in. After that you can give the bad news to everyone. They want to show you the commercial.
He then pulled Charlie inside.
Vaggie, seeing Charlie, ran to her side and asked worriedly:
— Honey, are you okay? Nothing happened there with that idiot?
Charlie smiled tiredly and said:
— Yes, it wasn't a big deal.
Vaggie seeing Charlie's tired face, sighed.
Razan, looking at the two, smiled and took both their hands and said:
— Well, let's go. Weren't we going to show the commercial to Charlie?
Vaggie said:
— Yes, let's go.
They then sat on the couch in front of the TV.
Charlie looked around and said:
— Where's Angel?
Loona, who had her head on Razan's lap, looked at Charlie and said:
— Well, it seems he had some work and had to leave early.
Charlie said:
— What a shame. I wanted everyone to watch together.
Vaggie said:
— Well, now everyone quiet. Look, the commercial is about to play on TV.
The commercial then on TV.
Vaggie said in the commercial:
— Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel.
When the broadcast was interrupted.
Vaggie shouted:
— What the hell is this!
Charlie said:
— What a piece of shit! The commercial was almost there!
Razan said smiling:
— And that's why I don't like open TV.
At that moment, the news channel on TV began
Katie said:
— Today Hell is burning with urgent news. Still today the Paradise embassy announces that the next extermination not only occur in one year. It will occur sooner than expected.
She said:
— Do you know what this means, Tom?
Tom said:
— No. What do you mean, Katie?
Katie said:
— It means we're fucked.
In the Hazbin Hotel room, everyone was in shock.
Razan said:
— Well, it was nice knowing you all while it lasted, right? But everything has an end.
He then looked at Alastor and said:
— You know, man? Make sure you die pathetically. I'll show the fiber of demons to them. I can record everything to make a memorial in your honor.
Alastor said smiling:
— Don't worry. I don't plan to die before you. I'll be alive to see your painful death.
Charlie said:
— Calm down, everyone. No one's going to die.
Razan said:
— Well, I don't know. Like, I can protect the people in the hotel, but the people out there are going to get fucked hard.
Vaggie said, sighing tiredly:
— Well, but at least we don't have to worry about the hotel's security.
She then asked:
— But what about your city?
Loona looked at Vaggie and said:
— Relax. We're at peace after that fight with Sera. I don't think we'll be attacked anytime soon. So we can stay calm.
Charlie said:
— But what about the sinners out there? They're all going to be killed. If we let this happen, how will the hotel work?
Razan looked at Charlie and said:
— But then do you have a plan?
Charlie took a deep breath and said:
— No, but I'm going to think of one to save everyone
