Later in the Day, at the Hazbin Hotel.
"Sooo? What do you think?" I ask after letting both Charlie and Vaggie watch it at least.
"…. Uncle Cain, why am I in this commercial? I don't remember doing this." She didn't hate it obvious, in fact she quite liked it, but her suddenly appearing is why shes confused most of all.
I just smile as I let another me appear next to me, much to their surprise, I don't show all the magics that I have to Charlie after all, then my clone shapeshifted until it took the perfect form and looks of Charlie, right down to the minor details.
"Charlie, you know I would have loved to let you personally star in the commercial, but you tend to well…. Choke when it comes to public speaking along with getting nervous when having to speak on camera, so I believed it was best I just use a copy of you to do it that was given the simple job of doing good in our commercial, and as soon that was done." I say before snapping my fingers as my clone of her poofed away.
"Unless I control them personally they do what they need to before disappearing so you don't need to worry about them doing anything else." I say easing any worry's she might have about me making clones that can disguise themselves as her.
"But besides the whole doppelgänger thing, you enjoyed the video right?" I ask which I get a nod back in return.
"I really do like it Uncle Cain, although I kinda wished the others were in the commercial as well." Hear her thoughts and nod.
"I understand, but besides Vaggie the others aren't the greatest when it comes to being in video, Alastor hates being recorded, Niffty becomes completely frozen on camera. Husk doesn't really care, Angeldust hates reading lines and Pentious gets to awkward on camera, so that's why I took the creative decision to keep them off camera for this, and tell you what, when the hotel gets more popular we will have it be one that shows off the guests and how the hotel is helping them out, but this is the first commercial for the hotel and it needs to be eye catching that makes people want to come and see what we are all about." I decide to explain which she seemed to understand.
"Now I'm going to post this on my profile on Voxtagram for everyone who follows me to see, you girls can do it too, also have Angeldust upload it on his profile as well so everyone can see it." I say before sending them the video over text before I posted it on my Voxtagram account.
"Now I don't expect people to suddenly be coming here in droves, but it's best we finish the renovations, most of the floors are now available for people to live in so we can let some new guests into our hotel who desire help, in the meantime I'm going to head on out, I've got to meet some friends I haven't seen in sometime." I say as I get up from the couch we were all sitting on.
"Oh by the way, has Alastor asked about me at all?" I turn to look at them to which they look at each other and shake their heads.
"We haven't seen him in a few days." Vaggie said while crossing her arms clearly displeased that he would just disappear at random.
"Hmm, he must be contemplating on whether to take a deal I offered him, some sensitive information that he desperately wants to know in exchange for removing the soul ownership he has over Husk, I'm also planning on helping out Angeldust with his problem, but he needs to work on cleaning up his act with his heavy use of drugs before I feel like dealing with his boss." I casually drop a bombshell on them of what I plan to do for the both.
"Really Uncle Cain?! Your going to help them out like that?!" Charlie shouted out excitedly as she jumped towards me and hugged me tight, making me chuckle as I hugged her back.
"Of course my little Angel, they just need to work on it, well more specifically Angel has to work more on his issues, and I'll help him out, same can be said for any future resident that comes here, and while there are those guidelines from heaven, there's always a possibility of getting someone who has done a major sin into heaven, after all the main religion that worships heaven and god is all about forgiveness and redemption of people, it's just heaven believes in there being only one judgement after all and when you fail that you deserve where you belong at." I say to her so she doesn't have it in her to turn away people who truly do want to change.
And really in over the millions of years I've been here I have seen sinners who genuinely didn't deserve to be sent down here, and while at the time I didn't much care, and I still don't really care it makes me realize how strict sometimes heaven can be, and sometimes how lenient it can be.
To be honest the one time I ever saw someone nearly get into heaven was when Hitler himself prayed to god for forgiveness for all he had done just so his soul wouldn't be taken into hell and be given over to me for my aid I did in WW2, let's just say the Nazi's wouldn't have gotten nearly as far of they did if they didn't have my help, a lot of those psychos got their positions of authority and power thanks to me, and he tried to run to god for forgiveness.
But since I owned him already it wasn't hard for me to force him kill his son and wife before killing himself making him unable to reach heaven because of what he did, and to say his soul gave me a small boost to my already massive power would be an understatement for all the atrocities he committed.
Owning souls gives us Overlords Power and Authority, but devouring the souls of especially evil people gives most a significant boost in power, but that's only possible if they haven't entered hell yet and you own their still living human soul, and when they fall they become your power, though that's up to the holder of the contract if you want to do that as I still have some of history's evilist people in my pocket to be called upon when I really need them.
"Thanks Uncle Cain! It really means a lot that your helping me with this and those here at the hotel." She said with a bright smile that could make the sun look dim in comparison as she hugged me tighter.
"Anything for my little star, now I really should go now, can't keep people waiting after all, even if they aren't expecting company." I say before letting go of the hug as I waved good bye and headed out of the hotel.
And thanks to me spreading the video on my Pride Centered Voxtagram account plenty of lost souls began to hear about the Hazbin hotel and the hopes at maybe, just maybe, redeeming themselves.
"Hazbin Hotel huh?…. Will they even take me after what I had done?…." A female sinner asks herself as she puts away her phone as she pulls out a cigarette to smoke before looking up at the red sky.
"I already got my vengeance, and if there's even a chance of getting the hell out of hell then I'll take it…. Even if I don't fall into those conditions because of what I did before I died…" she says before putting out her cigarette on the railing on her apartment's balcony before heading back in to grab her jacket.
"… I can't believe I'm going to whore myself out just to get to Pentagram City from here…." She says with a sigh before leaving her shitty and overly expensive apartment for the last time.
*******
250ps nice! 300 for the next chapter, also can you guess who this mystery sinner is?
