Chapter 1: A New Silver Spider

"Ow!" The sound of a young woman screams.

The young woman opens her eyes to reveal the sky, but it's not blue at all.

She sits up with a confused expression, "Red? Why is the sky red?"

She then rubs her head and feels the pain from it, "My head… it feels like I got hit by a steel beam or a truck."

She then quickly remembers, "That's right… I… my brother… were working on assassinating a corrupted president of a finance company. We got the job done, but…"

Flashback: Few Moments Ago

There are two people running down the hall as fast as they can. One of them is a young woman that has beautiful silver hair, pale white face, and blue eyes. The boy has black hair, a fair face and the same blue eyes. They are both wearing dark clothes. They continue to run away as they are being chased by men wearing black suits.

The boy turns to the girl, "We have to hurry!"

"That bastard! That man who hired us set us up!" The girl angrily says.

"I know. We get back to the boat and make sure we get those dumb asses off our tail," The boy says.

The girl brings out her guns, "I'll handle them Black Onyx."

"Thanks Silver Crystal," Black Star says.

The girl, Silver Crystal, turns around and begins to fire her guns at them. That kills the guards in seconds. The two continue to run until they reach outside to the docks and they see the boat with someone at the wheel of the speed boat. Another guard arrives to see them close to the boat and aim his gun at Black Onyx. Silver Crystal quickly turns around to see the gun pointing at her brother.

She quickly pushes the boy out of the way as the guy fires. Sadly, she is shot right at her left chest in the process.

The boy quickly turns to see what has happened to her sister and exclaims, "CRYSTAL!"

Flashback Ends: Present Day

The girl who is named Silver Crystal remembers what happened.

She places her hand on the left chest, "That's right. I was shot when I was trying to save my older brother. And I must have died from the bullet aiming close to my heart."

The girl stands up and begins to look around. She notices that a lot of the buildings are red or have a few lights. Suddenly, she hears the sound of a clock ringing. She turns around to see a tall clock tower that shows the time. It's hard for her to tell, but can see a sign under it.

She reads it, "Next cleanse? 365 Days?"

"What does that mean?" Crystal says, confused.

She then looks around again and wonders, "Where am I?"

Crystal then begins to notice doors and windows are being open. She becomes stunned to see that they're not humans, but being in different forms. Those with claws, different color skins and fur, different eye colors. None of them is a single human.

"They're… they're demons? Wait… does this mean… I'm dead? So this means… I'm actually in Hell." Crystal asks herself, looking stunned.

Crystal looks up to see the sky has some kind of pentagram overhead.

Crystal sighs, "This is a lot to take in. I've died and now I'm in Hell for what I did as a human."

"Still, I never expected Hell to be like a city. I thought it would be a pit of fire or something in the books I've read. Well, as my mother says, 'Never give up, no matter what life leads you. And that you should make the best of the situation,' I'm a dead girl in Hell and I'll have to make the best of it," Crystal says.

She then looks down the left sidewalk and then looks at the one on the right.

"Hmm, I guess I'll just go left and see where I go from here," Crystal says.

Crystal then begins to walk down the sidewalk wondering what she needs to do in this new city that is now in the place she never thought she would be… Hell.

Sometime later, Crystal continues to walk without thinking about the demons walking by.

She thinks, "What should I do? How am I going to survive here? What can I do? I never thought I would be here without my family, but we usually stick together. Now… I'm alone."

She then hears her stomach growling, "Damm, I'm so hungry. I should find a way to get something to eat."

Crystal continues to walk down the sidewalk to figure out what to do and where she should go. In fact, she's been walking for a while. She then walks by a store that has a lot of mirrors. She then comes to a halt to notice something… strange… frightening… and shocking. She looks at the reflection of a tall mirror next to the window. She finds that her appearance has… changed.

She still has her silver hair and her blue color eyes. Of course, she has a silver bang that covers half of her left eye. However, her skin is practically pale white. She also has silver markings on her face and she looks taller than normal. She is wearing black long sleeve and it's past her knees. She is also wearing a blue shirt under it, with black pants and black slip on shoes. What's more, she has four arms instead of two. They are also pale white with pale blue markings and sharp blue nails. Crystal is shocked to find herself in a different appearance, but seeing how the other demons look. This looks… normal.

"I'm… I'm a real demon now," Crystal says, still shocked.

She looks at her new features to see they're very different from her human self. From the clothes she's wearing to the new sharp white teeth in her mouth.

Suddenly, Crystal hears a loud explosion and quickly turns her head to see smoke coming from somewhere close by

"What is that?" Crystal asks curiously.

She then hurries down the street to see what's going on. Crystal continues to hear explosions that are getting louder, meaning she's getting closer to the source. And it seems that there are coming from multiple sources in one location.

Crystal arrives and to her shock. She sees Eggs wearing black, white, and yellow clothes running around as they carry weapons.

"Okay, demons are one thing, but talking and moving eggs… are another," Crystal says, confused.

Suddenly, chains coil around her and she is pulled back. The next moment, she finds herself slammed to the ground on her back.

Crystal screams, "What the crap?!"

Suddenly, something overshadows her and looks up to find herself face to face with another demon. The demon is a cobra-like demon that is black and yellow. He has pink sclera with black narrow pupils for eyes. More like he has four on his hood and one on his hat that actually smiles. He wears a black and yellow bow tie with a pink eye on it, and a gray coat with yellow vertical stripes. He is holding the chain with his sharp pink claw fingers and has a long lack tail with yellow stripes with pink eyes.

"Well well well, look what we have here. A little spider demon, probably with those two whores who are after my new territory," The snake says.

"Excuse me. But do you mind you tell me what the fuck is going on?!" Crystal asks, not pleased.

"As if you didn't know. You expect me to believe you," The snake demon says.

Crystal mutters, "I wouldn't know. I just came to this place."

Suddenly, someone kicks the snake demon away from Crystal and causes him to let go of the chain. She then notices another demon's shadow overshadow her. When she looks up, she is surprised to see what demon it is.

The demon has a slender white body and face, with fluffy white hair and pink details on his fur. He wears notable eye shadow with eyeliner, and pink irises. His eyes are different colors: one is a dark sclera and no pupil. He also has a gold fang among his sharp white teeth. He is wearing a white suit with pink stripes, a black and white bow tie, a white choker and gloves on all four of his arms. To the girl's shock, this Demon looks almost like her, a tall demon with four arms.

The Spider demon grins and says, "Hey, you okay there?"

"Um… well… uh… yes," Crystal says with her cheeks tuning slightly red.

"You sure picked a bad time to come across a Turf War," The Spider Demon says, and is able to break Crystal from the chains.

She stands up and dust off her clothes, "Thanks. That creep acted like I knew him or something."

"I'm guessing you just dropped in from earth after dying huh?" The Spider Demon suspects.

"Pretty much. My name is Crystal, but I'm also called Silver Crystal," Crystal says.

"Names Angel Dust," The Spider Demon says.

Then notices the Eggs coming towards them and runs off taking the girl with him.

"You better come with me unless you don't want to blow up, The Turf War is sort of turning into a territorial genocide," Angel says.

"A what?" Crystal asks, stunned.

"Trust me, you'll have to get used to it after your first day," Angel says, and stops at a certain location.

He then passes Crystal a Thompson gun and the girl catches it.

"You know how to use one of these?" Angel asks.

Crystal smirks, "I came from a family of assassins. I've been using a gun since I was ten."

"That's good to hear," A female's voice says.

Crystal turns to see a young woman is holding a bomb that is red as a cherry with a black skull on it. The demon is a girl with blonde hair with pink and white accents in a ponytail, and wears a large amount of mascara around her big red eye with a yellow x for a pupil. She has pink freckles on her face and right shoulder, and tattoos along her right arm. She wears a gray fingerless satin glove on the left, Along with a red off shoulder crop top, black bra, reddish, torn up miniskirt with two buttons at the front, and black ripped leggings. She is also wearing a red and whtie boot on her left foot and a white and red sock on the right.

"Are you ready to do this? What's your name? The name is Cherri Bomb?" the Cyclops Demon girl asks with a grin showing her sharp teeth.

Crystal grins and says, "The name is Silver Crystal, but you can call me Crystal. I'm ready to scramble these eggs and their serpent leader. And it's a pleasure to meet you Cherri Bomb."

Suddenly, Crystal notices, "Walking Eggs at three o' clock."

"You mean the Edgelord's Egg Bois? I see them," Angel says, and fires his own gun at them.

The eggs are soon cracked and scrambled. Cherri Bomb then throws her bombs at them and they explode leaving red sparkling dust. Crystal then begins to put her assassinating skills to good use. She fires at the Egg Bois with the Thompson Gun and continues to run as she hides and gains good shots. Sensing someone behind her, Crystal turns around to see two Egg Bois diving to her. Suddenly, Crystal's new lower arms grab the Egg Bois and throw them away to knock them down like bowling pins.

Crystal looks at her new set of arms, "Huh, guess these extra set of arms can come in handy."

Crystal along with her new friends. Angel Dust, and Cherri Bomb. Crystal continues to fight alongside them. She continues to fight the gun at the enemies. Time has gone by and the battle is over. Sir Pentious and many of his Egg Bois are able to escape, and luckily, Cherri, Angel, and Crystal also manage to get away.

Cherri laughs and says, "Thanks for the help guys."

"Yeah. That was the best action I ever had," Angel says.

"Glad I was able to help. Of course, I never expected to get myself into a battle on my first day in Hell," Crystal says.

"Guess we turned your first day into a fucking exciting one," Angel says.

"I suppose so. Never done stuff like this since my dad and I had to fight off guards during an assassination of some corrupt politician," Crystal says.

Angel laughs, "Sounds like you get to have all the fun."

"Yeah. You were awesome back there," Cherri says.

"Thanks," Crystal says.

Then asks, "By the way, do you think you can tell me where I can find a hotel? I could use one to stay. Until I can find some work, afford a place to stay, and such."

"Hmm, how about I can give you a hand with that. Luckily, where we need to meet our ride is over there," Angel says, pointing her to a certain direction.

A little time later, Angel continues to walk to the light post with Crystal close behind.

Crystal asks, "So Angel, are we waiting for anyone specific."

"Yep. We're waiting for a white limo to come by," Angel says.

"A limo. You mean someone rich or something?" Crystal asks.

"Yep. She's known as the Princess of Hell and I'm sure she can help you find a place to stay and some work," Angel says.

"Um… thanks. But still, the Princess of Hell? That's hard to believe," Crystal says.

"Believe it toots," Angel says.

Just then, a white limo comes by and comes to a complete stop.

"There's our ride," Angel says.

The doors open to reveal a girl and she's not very pleased at all. In fact, she has a furious look on her face. She's a slim demon with slightly dark gray skin, long white hair with light pink stripes at the ends, and she wears a big pink bow in it. Her right eye is a light yellow and her sclera is light pink, and her left eye is missing and is replaced by a pink X. She is wearing a white mini dress with light-navy blue X's on the chest and matching color frill at the bottom, and belt, light-navy blue evening gloves and a choker. Her right stocking is light-navy blue and her left stocking has light-pink stripes, and a light-navy blue bra or tank top underneath, proven from the sleeve.

"Angel Dust! You are in deep shit!" The girl screams in anger.

"Come down Vaggie, no need to get your ribbon in a knot," Angel says.

The girl, Vaggie, angrily screams, "Get in here, now!"

"Alright alright, but you mind me bringing a new friend. She needs a place to stay and have a job," Angel says.

Vaggie groans and says, "Fine."

Angel then walks inside the limo and then, Crystal follows after him. Crystal is amazed to see the inside looks glamorous. She has never seen the inside of one before. The place is practically red inside with soft chairs around and stands to place food and drinks on it. Crystal then trips and ends up falling on Angel, and her head lands on his fluffy chest. It feels so soft, she can't resist laying on it.

She then hears Angel chuckles and asks, "Feeling comfy there?"

Crystal quickly sits up and says, "Um, sorry about that."

"Relax, no harm done," Angel says.

"Okay," Crystal says.

Time has gone by and Crystal is still grasping in on what has happened. First she died and went to Hell. Then ends up being involved in a war. Now, she is in a limo that belongs to the Princess of Hell. She looks around to see the girl from earlier glaring at them and is sitting next to a girl who is hugging her knees and feels sad.

The girl has pale white skin with red cheeks, and curly long blonde hair with peach pink highlights that look a little messy, black lips, black eyes with light yellow sclera. She is wearing a pink tuxedo jacket that has a tear at the sleeve, a white shirt underneath, a black bow tie, black trouser with pink stripe at the bottom, and black and white spectator shoes.

Crystal thinks in concern, "I wonder what's wrong with her. She looks kind of sad.

The silent is making things uneasy for Crystal to say her words out loud. The blonde girl's sadness and Vaggie's anger is making it hard for her to say anything. Of course, she can tell the gray girl, Vaggie, is glaring at Angel who is amusing himself by playing with the car's window button repeatedly. Angel then stops to notice the scowl look Vaggie is giving him.

Angel then asks, "...What?"

"'What?' 'WHAT?'?!" Vaggie asks, with pure anger.

"What were you DOING?!" Vaggie rages and rips some of her hair off.

Angel sighs and says, "I owed my girl buddy a solid! Isn't that a "redeeming quality"? Helping friends with stuff?" And rolls his eyes in reply.

"Not with turf wars that result in territorial genocide!" Vaggie continues to yell at Angel as he isn't paying much attention.

Crystal is concerned and confused as to what's going on. She gets the feeling there is something she doesn't know. Then again, being the new resident, she doesn't know much at all.

"Eh, you win some, you lose a few hundred," Angel says, and chuckles.

He then continues to play with the button, "It wasn't that bad, anyway."

Suddenly, Vaggie throws a dagger at the window button that almost hit Angel, making him move back in fright. Vaggie continues to glare at him.

"Aw, come on! I had to!" Angel says.

He brushes his hair and says, "My credibility was on the line! I mean, what kind of reputation would I have if people found out I was tryna go clean? It just throws out my entire persona!" And then fluff up the fur on his chest.

Vaggie is not convinced and angrily says, "Your credibility? What about the hotel's?! Your little stunt made us look like a fucking joke!"

Angel scoffs it off and says, "No, no, no, babe. Jokes are funny! I made you look... uh, sad!

Crystal turns to the other girl as Angel says, "And pathetic! Like an orphan... with no arms... or legs... Oh! With progeria!"

Seeing the girl whimper and then covers her face with her hair makes Crystal feel sorry for her.

Angel spreads his arms and legs out, "Great! Now I'm bummed thinkin' about it!"

"This thing have any liquor?" Angel adds, looking around the limo.

"Can you please just try to take this seriously?" Vaggie scolds.

Angel acts like he isn't paying attention and flicks off a dust bunny.

"Fine, I'll try. Just don't get your taco in a twist, baby!" Angel adds, and snaps his finger at her while smiling.

Offended, Vaggie demands as she stands up, "Was that you trying to be sexist or racist?!"

Angel groans "Whatever pisses you off more."

"Is there seriously no liquor in here?!" Angel adds.

Crystal asks, "Uh, how can you think of Liquor at a time like this?"

Vaggie sits back down with her arms crossed, "I'm gonna kill 'em."

"Too late, toots," Angel says.

Then Angel begins to think about and says, "Wait! Would that make me double dead? Hah, and where exactly do I go? To Double Hell? Hahahaha! Sorry, you're stuck with me, bitch. Get used to it," And folds his arms with confidence.

Vaggie grits her teeth in anger as her hands are ready for the kill, "Come mierda malparido!"

"Listen, who cares if some jack-offs got hurt? Most of 'em are ugly freaks. Look around!" Angel says.

He then leans to the window, "You got a bunch a fuckin' harlequin-looking babies down here!"

And begins laughing.

"You're one to talk," Vaggie mutters.

Hearing the comet, Angel shouts in anger, "Hey!"

"This body is flawless!" Angel says, motioning his boy.

Everyone wants summa me, and I've got the creepy fan letters to prove it!" Angel adds as he digs into his chest and pulls out a letter.

The fan letter with a picture of a dirty naked middle-aged man, who ironically has a "No Angel Dust" tattoo, licking an Angel Dust body pillow attached with the message saying "Show me you feet! -Bryrin, #1 Fan Critic"

Crystal groans, and thinks, "That is so wrong I can't even picture it."

Vaggie growls in anger.

The other girl speaks up and says, "That was really uncool, y'know, Angel."

'Uncool?' After that train-wreck, there is no way anyone is gonna wanna stay at the hotel!" Vaggie angrily shouts.

Then turns to Angel in fury and points fingers at him, "All thanks to you and your selfish bullshit!"

"Does that mean I don't have a free room anymore?" Angel asks with his arms crossed.

Vaggie motions her arms as if she's saying, "What do you think?"

"Ah, well shucks," Angel says, and snaps his fingers.

"Hey, come on. We don't know if things are over yet!" The girl says, taking off her jacket.

Then turns to Vaggie, "Try to relax, Vaggie. I-it'll be okay!"

She then places her hand on her shoulder that makes Vaggie smile.

Then she turns to Crystal, "And um, I guess we kind of left you out for a little while did we?"

"It's okay. It seems that you had something important to discuss," Crystal says.

"Right. I'm Charlie and I'm actually the Princess of Hell and it's glad to meet you. And you already met Vaggie," The blonde girl, Charlie says.

"It's nice to meet you. I'm Crystal, but I'm also given the name Silver Crystal. Because of my silver color hair," Crystal says.

"I can tell. You actually look really pretty. So, are you planning on staying at the Happy Hotel for rehabilitation?" Charlie asks with a smile.

"I'm afraid I'm not sure what you mean. The truth is, I'm actually new here and need a place to stay. Angel said that he knew a place for me to stay and maybe I can find some work," Crystal says.

"Really? It looks like you actually did some good after all, Angel," Charlie says, sounding impressed.

"Was there any doubt?" Angel questions with a confident grin on his face.

Vaggie rolls her eyes, "Oh brother."

Charlie turns to Crystal and says, "Don't worry, you can stay with us at the Happy Hotel. And maybe you think about trying rehabilitation. That way at the end, you can be happy and smiling in Heaven."

"Um, okay. But you think you can explain it to me what this rehabilitation is about? I feel a bit out of the box about it," Crystal says.

Charlie smiles and says, "Of course. It's a bit of a long story."

"I don't mind. I actually got nothing better to do as of now, since I just died," Crystal says.

"Well… it went something like this," Charlie says.

Charlie then explains to Crystal about her Rehabilitation project and how she can help the sinners and demons in Hell. Of course, to Crystal, the thought of rehabilitating demons sounds… hard to believe. Then again, she wonders if it will actually work, and if she does, can she get to Heaven too.
