The Radio Kids. (Hazbin Hotel Fanfiction)

Going to work.

Alastor laughed. "Such an engrossing reaction! Well my darling, here we are." He said, parking the car in front of a large multi-level building that had a rather big antenna at the top.

Before she even knew it Alastor was beside Edith picking her up, placing her on his hip, and carrying her into the building. Once they walked in, they saw a young blonde woman behind a counter, typing on a typewriter. "Ah Vivienne, hello!"

"Hello, Alastor! Welcome!" She said, standing up from her chair only to be surprised when her eyes landed on the girl who's shyly hiding her face in Alastor's shoulder. "Oh, who is this cutie?!" Vivienne asks, making the girl giggle a bit.

"This little fawn is Edith. Edith, this is Mimzy's sister, Vivienne Medrano." He said, introducing the two.

Vivienne smiled warmly, holding her hand out. Edith lifted her head up and shook the woman's hand before putting her head back onto Al's shoulder.

"Awww!" Vivienne said, tilting her head. "It's nice to meet you, Edith! Now Alastor, they are waiting for you upstairs in the sound room so you should head on up there. Is there anything you'd like me to bring up to you? A coffee? Maybe some juice for this little cupcake?" She asked, cooing at the young girl, making her giggle more.

"Both would be lovely!" Alastor responded.

"Alright then," she started writing in a small notepad. "Would you like Orange or Apple juice, Edith?"

The girl looked at her, confused. "I don't have money..." she said sadly.

Both of the adults chuckled together. "Don't worry, it's free honey! You won't need to pay a cent!" Vivenne stated.

"Really?!" Edith asked excitedly. "Orange juice then!"

Vivienne smiled, writing that down on her notepad. "Great! I'll bring that right up to you then!"

"Thank you darling!" Al said, walking down the halls and up a flight of stairs and into a rather small room with a window that led into a bigger room.

"There you are Al, I almost thought you were gonna be late." A gruffy old sounding voice said.

"Oh, Husker. I would never start one of my shows late! Surely you know that!" Alastor responded, looking at a man with black hair with his back facing them, slumped over a table with a sound control panel on it.

"Don't give me the 'surely you know that' bullshit, Al! Who gives a fuck what I know, you were almost late, that's a fact. I'm not taking any shit the producers give us if you're late." Husk says angrily.

"Now now! That's no way to talk in front of a young maiden!" The man holding the girl warned.

"Young maiden?! Wha-" Confused, Husk turns around and sees Edith smiling back at him, waving her hand innocently. "Alastor... Why do you have a kid in your arms?" He asked calmly, rubbing the bridge of his nose.

"Oh, just some small arrangements have been made, she and her brother saw some things they shouldn't have. I couldn't just let them get away."

With that one statement, Husk knew what Alastor was talking about for he had also been let in on the secret of the wanted serial killer. He sighed, brushing his hair back with his fingers and stood up. "You're crazy Al, ya know that?" he said, taking a few steps towards the two. "Hey there, kiddo! I'm Husk." He said, playfully ruffling her hair with his hand. She laughed and smiled in response to his friendliness.

"I'm Edith!" She said happily, her adorable voice filling Husk's ears.

"It's a pleasure to meet you!" But before he could say anything else the door behind them opened and in walked Vivienne holding a white glass mug and a plastic cup.

"Hello!!!" She exclaimed cheerfully. "I have a coffee for Alastor and Orange Juice for the little sugar pie!" She said, putting both on a small wooden table next to the door.

"Thank you kindly, my dear!" Alastor said, smiling brightly at her. She nodded her head and exited the room while Al put Edith down. "Why don't you go drink up while Husker and I have a little chat, hm?"

The little one nodded happily and skipped over to the table.

"So let me get this straight. You fucking kidnapped two goddamn kids?!" Husk swore into the other's ear who nodded in response, his smile not leaving his face- as usual. The black haired man rolled his eyes, facepalming. "Why would you-?! How could you-?! What?!"

"Her and her dumb brother witnessed one of my murders. I couldn't just leave them there with that kind of information, now could I?"

"Why not just fucking kill them both?! It's not that hard! You do it all the time!"

Alastor sighed. "She's a lady! I can't just kill her and I couldn't kill the brother in front of her, she would have wanted revenge. They are homeless so I took them in. What else could I do?"

"Wait a minute, where's the brother?!" Husk asked, panicking slightly.

"I have Mimzy watching over him. I thought it best to separate them that way if one escaped I could still have the other as leverage."

Husk rolled his eyes again before turning back around and sitting back down at his control panel. "You better know what you're doin', Al. If the cops know about you, they'll swarm this place and if they go after you, I'll be on their radar too." he mumbled.

Alastor didn't respond, instead he went over to the small table and grabbed his cup of coffee. It was exactly how he liked it, espresso served with frothed milk. Vivienne was such a dear.

"You're on air in 5 minutes." Husker said.

Al kneeled down to the little five year old who was happily sipping her juice next to him. "Hello my darling. How would you like to help me do my radio show today?"

Edith's eyes widened with excitement as she put her cup down and smiled at him. "What do you want me to do?" she asked, trying but failing to hide her sudden and overwhelming joy.

"Just in there is the sound room," he said, pointing at the small window that led into the larger room. "That is where I go on air and speak to the audience of wonderful listeners! But- there are papers I read from. You would be the one to hand me the paper I need to read!" he explained to the young girl.

She smiled even brighter. "Okay! I can do that!"

"Great, come now dear." Alastor said, holding out his free hand. Edith moved her juice to her left hand and held the man's hand as he brought her through a single wooden door and into the sound room where he led her to a desk with two chairs, a microphone, and a stack of papers with typed up words on it with notes on the side in pen ink.

He pulled out the chair on the side of the desk and gestured for the girl to sit down before sitting down in the other chair in front of the microphone and taking the first paper in the stack and putting it in front of him with his coffee to the side. "What I would like you to do is hand me the next sheet of paper when I finish reading this one. That's all you need to do my darling! I'll put my hand out for the next one when I need it."

Edith nods and straightens the stack of papers.

Husk knocks on the window gesturing to Alastor that he goes on air in 1 minute. The excitement started showing more and more as the seconds counted down. This was so exciting! She was getting to help put on a radio show! How incredible! Sam would never believe this!

Now thinking of her brother, Edith wondered what Sam and Mimzy were up to. Hopefully they were having just as much fun as she was! Mimzy did seem very friendly and kind and fun, surely they were enjoying each other's company! Surely!

The man on the other side of the glass knocked again, slowly counting down with his fingers, when he reached one a large sign on the wall glowed with the words 'ON AIR' im bright red.

Here they go!
