When you got in the elevator, you started to hum (favorite song). You got to the lobby floor and when the doors opened, you were met with some knocking on the door. You, being curious, decided to jog up to Charlie, who was just in front of the door and staring at it. When you finally got to her, she looked at you, smiled and turned to the door. She grabbed the door handle and twisted, opening it to a weird male. (not alastor yet!) You looked at the male, and took in his features. He was a lanky bird like demon. He had black scleras, a long white beak that curved slightly, and his feathers were white, black, and (favorite color). You tilted your head, why was he here? He wasn't here to be redeemed, you just had the feeling. You quickly closed the door, and turned to Charlie. "Charlie, go get Vaggie. I don't trust him. I have a feeling he doesn't mean well." She nodded and went to go get Vaggie from her room. You swallowed hard, mustering up the courage to open the door. You took a deep breath and looked at the bird man with intense eyes. "What?" He chuckled darkly, "Oh love, don't look at me like that! I just want to be redeemed!" You gave him the, 'don't lie to me', look. He smiled darker when you crossed your arms, not allowing him to come in. You were about to slam the door shut when you saw a flash of colors come at you. You didn't have time to react, you were frozen when this man had you pinned to the floor. "Now dear, you better be lucky that I love them feisty!~" He then reached down to your neck and licked. You shuddered and tried to push him off, which he just pinned your arms above your head. You felt him reach and mess with the hem of your dress/suit top. Your eyes widened. 'Where the fuck is Vaggie and Charlie?!' you thought as he lifted your article of clothing. You didn't want to give him another reason to be proud, but you couldn't help it. You felt vulnerable. You then closed your eyes tightly and started to cry. Usually you could have been able to defend yourself, but you were still having a hard time adjusting to your afterlife. You just froze. You felt the man get off of you, in which you were grateful, but confused. You opened your eyes as you sat up. (cue Al!) There was a man in a red suit, nice dark reddish-brown dress pants, and dress shoes. He also had red and dark reddish-brown tips, with deer like ears, small antlers, and a hint of a tucked in tail. You just bring your knees to your chest, trying to calm down from what just happened. As you were taking in this new man's features, he glanced back at you, grinned a bit, and turned back the bird. You watched as the deer like demon grab the lanky bird by his throat. "Now my young sinner, what possessed you to try to harm this young lady/man? I must say, that wasn't very gentlemanly!" The deer said with a radio like voice. The bird demon didn't say anything, probably due to the fact he was getting choked. You watched as the man who saved you turned to you, with the other demon still in his hand. "My dear, I know you must not trust me yet, I understand. I just want you to tell me what you wish of me to do to this," He paused for a minute, looking at the demon in his grasp. "disgusting excuse of a man." He said with a distasteful tone, clearly disgusted. Once the deer looked at you again, you looked at his face. He had a warm grayish skin tone, deep red scleras with bright red irises. His eyelid were covered in a dark red color, he had rows of warm yellow teeth, and a red tinted monocle. You looked deep into his eyes. He smiled warmly, and turned to the other demon. He then threw the man out of the door. He walked to the door and watched the man look up at him. "Now I suggest you leave, but allow me to say this," he walked to the other demon, in which he bird curled up a bit, still watching his every move. "If this young woman/man hadn't caught my eye, and hadn't  been here, I would've killed you right there. You are lucky that she has enough heart to let you go. One day," He bent down to the others level. "You will pick a fight, and will lose tremendously. Now leave before I change my mind." The other demon didn't waste and time, stood up, and ran as fast as he could, most likely far away from the hotel. The other demon walked back inside, shut the door, and turned to you. You looked up at him as he slowly walked toward you. You reached his hand out to you gently. "Here my dear, allow me." You looked at his hand then to his eyes. Why did he help you? Was there a catch? You slowly, and unsurely, reached up and grabbed his hand gently. He then helped you up. "Are you alright my dear? He didn't get to far in his, shenanigans, did he?" He asked, using his other hand to put his staff that looked like a microphone from the 1800s on the wall, and put in on top of your hand, making slow and soft circles, trying to calm you. You looked at this man, he was nice, but you were in Hell, it could just be one way for him to get what he wanted. You wanted to yank your hand away, but as you looked into his eyes, you saw that he meant no harm. You had the feeling that was in fact being genuine with how he was acting. You tilted your head slightly, looking down at his hands. "N-no, he didn't. He didn't get far, t-thanks to you, s-sir." The man chuckled. "That is great my dear! I was afraid I would've had to get messy! Oh, and dear? Please, call me Alastor!" You looked at his face, which was tilted to the side, with his eyes closed and his smile closed. Such a wonderful mood that face put you in. "A-alright, Alastor it is then." He looked at you, then looked behind you. He then grabbed your hand with on of his, and kissed it gently, looking up at you the entire time. You felt your face get warm. You then watched as his hand let go slowly, as he directed his full attention behind you. You, curious, looked behind you as well. Charlie and Vaggie were running down the stairs. You waited until they got there to tell them, "Where were you guys?! If Alastor wasn't here, I would've gotten..." You tried to finish what you were saying, but couldn't. You didn't know why, you seemed to have forgotten what even brought you here in the first place. You looked down and soon, felt tears slowly make their way down your face. You felt a hand gently land and squeeze your shoulder. You looked at the hand, quickly recognized it as Alastor's. You reached up and laid a hand on his. You turned, opened the door, and walked outside, shutting the door softly behind you. You leaned against the wall right beside the door. You closed your eyes as you leaned your head on the wall. You tried to reach deep into your mind to find why you were filling this way. When you died, you knew shit went down, you knew you had your fair share of things that happened. All you know is that you couldn't do it anymore and ended it. You couldn't remember why you did. You felt it right on the edge of your tongue, the edge of your brain, trying to get your attention. For God's and Lucifer's sake, you just arrived yesterday! You can't remember anything, other than how you died. You sighed as you heard the door open, showing Alastor. "My dear," he started. "Your friends wish to speak to you." You looked at him. You nodded as you walked into the door that Alastor held open for you. As you walked by him, you smelled pine and faint gun powder. You stopped as soon as you got in the door. Alastor closed the door. "My dear?"
