Lost in Hell: A Human's Journey of Redemption at the Hazbin Hotel

Bookmark
2 Points

You’re not entirely sure why you picked up the glimmering Asmodean Crystal at the time. It had shimmered with an ethereal glow on the sidewalk, distracting you from your ordinary, monotonous walk home. But now, standing before an unnaturally swirling portal in the middle of your living room, you realize this was no ordinary crystal.

With a mix of wonder and trepidation, you decide to test out the crystal. You gently press its smooth surface, and before you can second-guess yourself, the swirling portal widens, devouring the familiar comforts of your home. The energy pulls you in, and everything turns to blinding white.

When your vision clears, you see a breathtaking, bizarre building. The exterior is a tall, extravagant hybrid of architectural styles, with remnants of various vehicles and a looping set of train tracks. The place screams "carefully orchestrated chaos." Hanging above the entrance is a welcoming, yet ominous sign that says "Hazbin Hotel."

You can't help but be filled with innocent curiosity. What could be behind those elaborate doors? You walk towards them, your steps echoing in the eerie silence as you approach the entrance. The stained glass doors give way to your touch, and you enter the hotel.

Inside, the grand lobby spreads out before you, restored to a state of bizarre grandeur. The musty scent of old wood and velvet mingles with a faintly metallic odor. You notice tables laden with various food and drinks, tantalizingly unattended. Starving from not eating all day, you can’t resist helping yourself. You justify it to yourself: Surely, this is all meant to be shared?

"Who the fuck ate my lunch?" you hear out of the blue, and you're forced to stifle a laugh. The voice is furious, and you duck behind a large, ornate armchair.

"GODDAMNIT! My vodka's gone too!" complains another voice, gruffer and slurred, presumably Husk.

“Calm down, chicas. It’s Hell. What do you expect?” retorts Angel Dust with a sarcastic drawl.

“Shut up, Angel! We’re gonna find this thief and—” Vaggie’s voice cuts off as you grip your sides to keep from audibly chuckling.

You sneak towards the guest quarters, trying to stay out of sight. The broad hallways twist and turn, each lined with various doors decorated in Hell's fashion. Eventually, you need to relieve yourself and duck into a bathroom. You’re quick to do your business, but the smell lingers despite your attempts to flush and freshen up.

“This smell is fucking disgusting!” Husk groans from outside.

“Whoever did this, I will personally shove a bar of fucking soap down their throat!” Vaggie threatens.

Even Niffty chimes in, “This place smells worse than old fish, ew!”

Holding in laughter becomes even harder. Their reactions are priceless, even if you feel a sting of guilt. You almost make it to the window, to maybe glimpse out to see what demonic horrors lie outside when a sudden, small figure catches your eye. It's Niffty, and she spots you before you can react. Her eye widens comically, and she breaks into an unsettlingly cheerful grin.

“OMG! A human! A real, living human!” she shrieks, running off excitedly to alert the other residents.

Your heart pounds in your chest. You try to make a break for it, dashing through the hallways, but it's no use. The others quickly receive the news.

You’re cornered in the main lounge, surrounded by the very demons whose food you took. Charlie looks at you with utter confusion. Vaggie, Angel Dust, and Husk each wear expressions ranging from irritated to plain perplexed.

“How is there a human in Hell?” Charlie asks, bewildered.

“Who cares? This mortal ate our food and ruined our air. Can I rip 'em apart now?” Angel Dust asks, eyes gleaming with excitement.

The thought of your imminent demise fills you with dread. Before you can explain yourself, a tall silhouette steps forward - Alastor. His grin is unnervingly wide, his eyes dancing with delight at the chaos. You barely manage to scream as he lunges at you with dark magic, tearing you apart until everything fades into blackness.

You regain consciousness in the middle of a chaotic, hellish city – Pentagram City. As you rise, you realize you've become one of the many sinner demons here in Hell. The truth hits you: you're dead.

After wandering aimlessly, you spot the very building you trespassed - Hazbin Hotel. With resignation and a new sense of purpose, you approach its doors once again. This time, you're hoping to find redemption.

Charlie welcomes you warmly, her eyes kind and hopeful. "Welcome back. Ready to begin anew?"

You nod, determined to redeem yourself in this place where redemption seems impossible.

“Hey, welcome to the shitshow,” Angel Dust calls with a smile, and this time, his welcome feels more genuine than threatening.

"We'll turn you into something decent, eventually," Vaggie adds, half-hearted but sincere.

As everyone greets you, you feel a strange sense of belonging. Despite the bizarre and dangerous circumstances, you’re ready to start your journey toward redemption.

Prompt: Write the POV story of the human, who finds an Asmodean Crystal (which Blitzo (an imp from the adults cartoon/animated series Helluva Boss) accidentally dropped one of them during his mission with the other crewmembers of I.M.P. including Moxxie, Millie, and Loona) and decided, out of innocent curiosity, to test out the Asmodean Crystal to see what happens. The portal to Hell then opens to reveals the entrance to the Hazbin Hotel (from the namesake adults cartoon/animated series "Hazbin Hotel"), and the human (with no ill intent and with pure curiosity) enters the portal and into Hell before he/she goes through the hotel's entrance doors and enters inside the Hazbin Hotel without the hotel's staff or guests/clients/patrons knowing. Here is what the hotel looks like; The Hazbin Hotel exterior is a tall, elaborate amalgamation of arched windows and turrets, one of which seems to be broken. It appears to be at least seven stories tall, with at least five of which being guest floors. Remnants of an airship, an ocean liner, a sailing ship and a carousel litter both sides and appear to have been incorporated into the structure of the building itself; there is also a train with some tracks looping the first and second floor exterior. Located on the top right of the building is a small radio broadcasting room, which is used as the work area for Alastor. Many signs are displayed outside the hotel: One atop the entrance reminiscent of the Hazbin Hotel logo, a large pink one atop the building with the hotel's name in lights, a neon 'HOTEL' sign at the bottom right and atop the building where Alastor's broadcast room is located, a small 'On-Air' sign is visible. Also located on the outer facade are various arrows pointing to the entrance and the broadcast room. The entrance has a tented cover with a booth in the center reminiscent of a circus or theater ticket booth. On either side of the booth are a set of double doors that have stained glass; in the pilot, they once depicted an apple on each one but were destroyed by an explosion due to Sir Pentious blowing up the doors with his airship (prior to Sir Pentious changing ways to become a nicer person before redeeming himself and becoming a saint angel (after his willing sacrifice against the series' main antagonist Adam (the exorcist angel) just before Adam is defeated by Lucifer Morningstar and killed by Niffty) in the season 1's finale episode "The Show Must Go On"). The hotel's interior (prior to this story) was shown to be in a state of disrepair, with wooden boards covering shattered windows, signs warning of asbestos, bloodied tools left lying around, and paintings are shown hanging off the walls (however, just after the season 1's finale episode "The Show Must Go On", these have been fixed after the hotel was rebuilt by Charlie's father Lucifer Morningstar). Much of the furniture in the lobby are strewn around haphazardly or remain boxed up in several large wooden crates. The bar uses skeletons, snakes, and bones as general themes, along with card suits and candles, and advertises itself as a casino. The area the bar in has glowing green wooden walls instead of the usual red wallpaper, with a "Jackpot" sign on the left wall and a Beelzejuice neon sign on the right wall. The word "concierge" can be presumed to be shown above the bar, and Alastor calls it the front desk when talking to Husk, suggesting that it is also the check-in counter. Despite the shabby and poor condition of the hotel, the overall theme of the building remains ornate and regal, with stained glass windows, lavish furniture, and generous usage of gold. Like the rest of Hell, the hotel has a largely red color scheme. There are many apple, snake and circus motifs throughout the hotel's interior, in reference to Charlie Morningstar's royal family, or more specifically, Lucifer Morningstar. Eyes are also a recurring theme throughout the building, appearing on the frame of almost every single painting and several vases and jars. The room the two women (Charlie Morningstar and Vaggie) share is rather large, with a regal look and a large bed, and has a window with a view of Pentagram City. Angel Dust's room has striped wallpaper, a vanity, mirrors, a place to put his wigs, and a bed with several pillows of various design, while beside it is a small bed for Fat Nuggets shaped like a pink heart with a small pillow on top, and with both beds on a single platform with neon lights. The wall behind the bed has photos of him, Cherri, and Fat Nuggets, as well as a couple of his film posters, while the bedside wall has neon lights shaped like webs. The door to his room has neon lights shaped like webs with hearts, and has three photos of him and his friends, and Fat Nuggets. Alastor's room has a mixture between both traditional décor and the fantastical, with one half being a classic "fancy study", complete with tasteful wallpaper and furnishings, the other half being a literal swamp conjured as a dining area. Sir Pentious' room (prior to Sir Pentious' death and sacrifice in the season 1's finale episode "The Show Must Go On") shared his (Sir Pentious') airship's steampunk aesthetics of golden cogs and gears and a red and black color scheme, while his bed was a circular mattress lined with pillows; this room is now currently vacant due to Sir Pentious' invented sacrifice. After going through the hotel's doors, the human finds himself/herself in the hotel's lounge room before finding the food and drinks on the table and consumes some of them (he wrongly believes no one will mind this, wrongly believing that the food are for everyone to eat and drink), since he/she is both hungry and thirsty (because he/she has not eaten for a day, so he/she needs food and something to drink). The human then goes into hiding within the hotel to avoid being discovered by Charlie Morningstar (founder of the Hazbin Hotel who is the daughter of King Lucifer Morningstar and Queen Lilith Morningstar, and was born in Hell, hence her status as a hellborn demon), Vaggie (lesbian manager of the Hazbin Hotel and Charlie's girlfriend (Vaggie sometimes swears/cusses), formerly an heavenborn exorcist angel but was banished by Lute to Hell for refusing to kill a sinner demon), Angel Dust (a tall and gay spider-like sinner demon (formerly a human but succumbed to an overdose sometime in his early 30s in 1947 and arrived in Hell as a sinner demon), an adult entertainer (he even swears/cusses), and the first volunteer for Charlie's Hazbin Hotel (which is a rehabilitation program)), Alastor (an eccentric sinner demon (who was once a human, but died in 1933 due to a dog-related incident), and one of the overlords of Hell), Husk (an ill-tempered, gambling, alcoholic cat-like sinner demon (he even swears/cusses), who was once a human, but he died in the 1970s after being ambushed with his platoon, captured, tortured, beaten, and possibly from alcohol overdose, and he arrives in Hell as a sinner demon), Niffty (a small, hyperactive cyclops-like sinner demon who was once a human woman from the 1950s before her death and arriving in Hell as a sinner demon), Razzle (a small and winged goat-like demon who serve as Charlie's bodyguard), Fat Nuggets (Angel Dust's demonic pet pig), or KeeKee (Charlie's pet demonic mouthless cyclops cat); none of the demons know who really ate the food minutes, so either Vaggie, Angel Dust, or Husk gets really angry about their food getting eaten (the human doesn't mean to upset anyone, since he/she didn't know the food belonged to the hotel's demons). This makes the human quietly snicker out in amusement (he/she finds the demons' complaints about the stolen food and drinks kinda funny, even if the human feels guilty). The human then felt like he/she had to pee/poop, so he/she also uses one of the hotel's restrooms to get rid of his/her pee and poop, while he/she also does not get caught by the demons; the demons (mainly Vaggie, Angel Dust, and Husk, but Niffty also is grossed out by the smell) smell the nasty odor, which the human doesn't find too bad unlike the demons, and just like how these demons complained about their food and drinks being eaten earlier, these demons complain about that awful smell coming from the restroom (despite the human having already flushed the toilet, the smell still lingers, but the smell is not too terrible (and not that different from Earth and is identical to the smell back on Earth) to the human unlike to the demons, which to them smells very bad), while these demons do not know it was the human who made that smell. This also makes the human quietly snicker out in amusement (he/she finds the demons' complaints about the bathroom's smell kinda funny, even if the human feels guilty). However, while the human's secrecy in the Hazbin Hotel has lasted for a long while (either for several days or weeks, despite causing the restroom's smell and the food and drinks being consumed by the human himself/herself), is then (much to his/her horror) discovered by one of the Hazbin Hotel's occupants, discovered by either Niffty (who would then smile/grin and scream out of excitement before running off to let the other demons know about the human being in the hotel), or Razzle (who is completely silent, but will still let the other demons know even without speech), or one of the hotel's pets (Fat Nuggets or KeeKee), leading to rumors of a human inhabiting the hotel among the demons. Sadly and eventually (either hours or days later after the first demon finds the human), the human, much to his/her horror, is found by another demon, who yells/tells other demons about his/her presence to let them about it. The demons then surround the human (with Charlie Morningstar being confused while Vaggie, Angel Dust, and Husk being unhappy with the human eating their food and stinking up the restroom, whilst also just as confused about the human being in Hell, just as all other demons being confused about the human being in Hell, since no human has ever visited or lived in Hell) before one of the demons (most likely Alastor, who enjoys chaos such as this) brutally kills the human (blood and gore involved) either through black magic (using dark magic) or cannibalism (shredding the human with his teeth and devouring/eating the human). After the human's death, the human then manifests in Pentagram City (located in the Pride Ring of Hell) as a sinner demon (confirming that he/she had died, hence why he/she is no longer mortal) due to his/her sinful trespassing into the Hazbin Hotel. Later, the sinner demon (formerly the human himself/herself) wants to be rehabilitated (in short, redeemed) so he/she could hopefully one day be accepted by Heaven and manifest in Heaven as a saint angel (which are unlike heavenborn angels, which were always born angels, the saint angels were once humans before they died), so the sinner demon (formerly the human himself/herself) enters the Hazbin Hotel (now with purpose) and is welcomed by Charlie Morningstar, and the sinner demon (formerly the human himself/herself) starts trying to redeem himself/herself and socializes with the Hazbin Hotel's other clients/patrons in a healthy/positive and non-sinful manner, in hopes that one day he/she will be redeemed. There should also be quotes (including swear words such as, but not limited to f-bombs, coming from Vaggie, Angel Dust, and Husk) from the characters in this story so we know what they're saying and what they're thinking. Also, it is a POV reader story, so it should not be in an author's point of view (my, I, mine, etc), and it should be from the point of view of the human reader (you, your, etc).
