In Vox's surveillance room, as overlapping videos from various cameras stationed around the Hazbin Hotel play on the screens stationed around him. Vox himself is sitting in his office chair, watching them all while drinking from his mug.

"No fucking way! They're going to fight? Oh, my god. Hahahaha! Oh, looks like your little hotel didn't work out so well." mocked Vox as he watched a screen with Alastor on it, which glitches slightly. "Oh, Alastor, I cannot wait to watch you get FUCKED! Ahahahaha!"

Vox laughs maniacally before he watches a screen with Damari on it as she was sharpening her sword. He stops laughing and his smile drops in realization.

"Oh... shit! Shit, shit, shit! She's going to get fucked too!" he panicked. "I better have a talk with her before it's too late."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Oh my stars, if it isn't Damari Valor herself!"

Damari turns around to find Rosie walking towards her.

"Oh, hello there! That's me!" she greeted.

"Oh, you're so beautiful! Call me Rosie!!" Rosie cooed, lightly pinching her cheek. "Alastor told me all about you!"

Damari giggled at the touch.

"Did he? I'm guessing you're friends with him."

"Yep."

"Well, nice to meet you. It's an honor to fight beside you, Rosie." Damari smiled.

"I'm afraid I'm sitting this one out, sweetheart. But my town people will love to tear the flesh off of the angels!" Rosie sighed sadly, but smiled while motioning to her cannibals, who were all digging around the crates of weapons.

"I think the sinners are too," Damari nervously smiled, looking over to see the sinners all grinning widely and talking about the golden blood spilling on the ground while the cannibal people are all nodding excitedly.

"Quite a handful, aren't they?" Rosie mused.

"Yeah, but it's worth it to keep them protected. Especially my friends." Damari replied, looking over at Charlie and others.

"I understand. Oh, and I like you to have this."

Rosie grabs something in her dress pocket and places it around Damari's wrist before pulling away to reveal a skull holding a rose with its teeth bracelet.

"A little charm for good luck on your battle."

"Thank you, Rosie." Damari smiled.

"No problem! And you're always welcome to come by to my Cannibal Town anytime you want to come talk to me." Rosie said.

"I will."

All cannibals and sinners gathered outside the hotel, practicing with their weapons and skills. As Charlie watches them all from the hotel's entrance, Vaggie comes up to her.

"Oh, I wish my mom were here to see this." Charlie sighed.

"The cannibals and sinners seem ready to fight. Are we?" Vaggie asked.

Sir Pentious bursts out of the hotel's doors, wearing a Victorian-style British army uniform and looking proud of himself.

"Fear not, damsels. I shall have the staff ready for victorious combat!" he declared.

"What in the hell are you supposed to be?" Vaggie questioned, looking at him up and down.

Sir Pentious salutes to them.

"General Pentious, reporting for duty. I'll turn those rapscallions into soldiers in no time at all!"

"Thank you, Pen." Charlie smiled.

"Looking good, Pentious." Damari smiled, approaching them.

Sir Pentious blushes bashfully.

"W-Why thank you, Damari!"

Niffty, running around the hotel's entrance, now runs up to Pentious.

"What can I do to help?" she asked.

"I'm glad, you asked, soldier. The base needs fortifications. Reinforce the southern wall! Create a moat around the perimeter to stop a ground assault." he explained, placing a circle around her from the dirt with a stick.

Niffty blinks up at Pentious, having no idea what he just said. Charlie kneels down to her level.

"How about this? If you see an angel, stab it!" she said, handing her a small blade.

Niffty sees Angel Dust a few metres away, and, thinking that Angel Dust is what Charlie meant, runs towards him with her knife.

"Stab! Stab! Stab!"

Angel sees her and gets frightened.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey!" he said, climbing up up the pole he was leaning on.

"No! Not him!" Damari shouted.

As Niffty runs off to find other things to stab, Angel does a flip and lands on the ground, before walking over to stand with Damari, Charlie, Vaggie and Pentious. Vaggie turns to the cannibals and sinners and gets into drill sergeant style.

"Listen up, sinners! We've got 24 hours before the Extermination begins. Let's get to work."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As the cannibals, sinners, and the hotel's residents begin training to fight, Vox continues to watch them all train from his surveillance room.

"Oh, they suck. Oh, they suck so bad! Oh, God. They're gonna fucking die! They're- they're gonna die." he laughed before glancing at Damari. "She better not die..."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Damari is talking to the sinners that called themselves Monster High as she was showing them the weakness of where to kill the angels thanks to Carmilla.

"Now that you know how to kill them, I need to know what you all can do that can give you an advantage to take them down and survive. Your real strength comes from being the best you, you can be. So who are you? What are you good at? What do you love? What makes you, you?"

"We're good with cheerleading, roller skating, and so much more sports that you can ever imagine!" Clawdeen explained.

"We're pretty good at cheerleading too and other stuff my sis said." Clawd said.

"Let's see." Damari grinned.

Cleo smirked and pointed at Ghoulia to start the music from the radio before joining them as they started doing their cheer extreme.

https://youtu.be/zLK3ASK6lFo

Damari was speechless at their performance as they finished without breaking a sweat. She quickly snapped out of it and smiled.

"Let us begin."

Their training unfolds as the Monster High sinners do sit ups while dangling on the high lamp posts by their legs, a long drop below them and Damari standing above them: the posts snaps partially. They nearly fall but manages to grab a hold of the post that Damari is standing on along with Charlotte. Then their grip slips and each fall out of sight, while Damari and Charlotte looks down below... Later, in a clearing, Damari gives Rebecca an angelic weapon, but seconds later attacks her with her sword. Rebecca manages to fend her off for three seconds before Damari knocks her weapon away...

Later, Clawdeen and Deuce lunges at Damari for their pets which she keeps tossing and dodging out of their reach... Then Frankie is forced to do push ups above a bed of hot coals while attempting to reach a bowl of water with her tongue each time she lowered herself... Then the Monster High sinners and Damari are standing on top of the hotel while they balancing several angelic weapons on their body without cutting themselves... Back in the clearing, Draculaura sneaks towards her friends who are tied up. Damari is nowhere in sight. Just as Draculaura reaches for them with a knife, Damari leaps out of nowhere and attacks her with her sword. Draculaura manages pull out her own angelic weapon to block Damari several times, but is unable to stop her from smacking the knife from her palm along with her weapon. Damari leans against the tied up Monster High sinners with a yawn. Draculaura tries to knock her knock only to receive a smack on the head with a yelp.

As their training progresses, the Monster High sinners steadily becomes efficient at their fighting with the help of their own powers and skills they're good at like cheerleading to combine their combat, able to mimic Damari's fighting moves, push up with one finger, and block all of Damari's attacks.

Before they knew it, they are running up the walls of the Hazbin Hotel as they're heading straight to the top. Angel Dust and others are in the balconies of the hotel with their weapons drawn as part of the obstacles. They then started firing at them. The Monster High sinners dodges each weapons that are in their way as they managed to knock their weapons out like Deuce turning their weapons into stones, Abbey freezing their limbs, and Frankie giving them an electric shock. A machine itself starts shooting arrows at them as Clawdeen dodges them before grabbing one of the flying arrows and stabs it, destroying it before she and others managed to reach to the rooftop where Damari is standing before them.

"Your training is complete. You are ready." she declared with a grin.

This made them cheer in success as they hug each other while jumping.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Damari was having a conversation with Twyla when she felt a tap on her shoulder. She turns to see Angel.

"Hey, can I have a word with you?"

Damari turns to Twyla who gives her a shy nod before walking away. She looks back at Angel.

"Sure. What is it?"

"Well, not here. I wanted to show you something. Alone." he suggested.

"O-oh? Are you sure? Wouldn't our friends noticed?" she asked.

"Don't worry. We'll be back on no time. What do you say?"

He holds out a hand to her. Damari thinks for a moment before taking his hand. Angel smiles and leads her out somewhere. Before they knew it, they're in what appears to be a theatre room. Damari was in awe at the place and meets Angel's gaze.

"I prepared a little something." he said, looking down a bit. "But I'm not sure. I don't want to mess it up."

"You know, someone once told me that failure is not your enemy, your fears are." she said.

"That's right." Angel nodded. "So, I'm prepared to make a fool of myself."

He stands and pulls the curtain apart to reveal hanging ropes.

"And you need ropes for that?" Damari tilted her head.

"A gift. For you."

Angel takes hold of a rope and begins to sing to Damari while he swings. Damari smiles as she stands close to the stage.

https://youtu.be/znysUcAAwCM

If happiness was a tangible thing
It would be you
If you'd have told me the feeling you'd bring
I'd think it untrue
And people search for a wonder like you
All of their lives
You still amaze me after all this time

They begin their ascent when he extends a hand to her, which she accepts. They come to rest close to the ceiling on the catwalk. As they stare into each other's eyes, he pulls her off the catwalk while holding onto the rope. She gasps as he gives her another rope and releases her. Damari holds on tight as she pulls her knees up to her chest.

You pull me in like some kind of wind
Mesmerized by the hold I'm in
Leave you here, I don't wanna
I wanna

They swirl about and Angel catches her, pulling her up. He gracefully spins around in the air while holding her hand and not slipping. Swinging and whirling, he twists her so they are facing each other while using his other hands to hold the rope. They look into one other's eyes and grasp hands.

Love you as one does
I, I will protect you at all costs
Keep you safe here in my arms
I, I will protect you at all costs
At all costs

They approached the catwalk and began to dance. From his suit pocket, Angel extends a rose toward her, inserting it into her hair above her ear. Damari gives him a smile. With a smile of his own, Angel moves closer to her, pressing his forehead to hers.

"Wow!" Damari gasped in awe and started singing.

What's pain when I look at you?
No way I could explain you
Even if tried to, I'll never dream like I used to do
If someone tried to hurt you
I don't see how that could happen
I'd fight for you in ways you can't imagine
Felt this, no, I haven't, I hope
It would be all right to stay right here beside you

She slips her footing on the catwalk after grabbing onto the rope. Her hair flew with her as the wind that was being created touched her skin. She has never experienced calmness like this. She seemed to be able to travel across the world carefree.

While she sang, Angel smiled. Showing off, he trailed behind her. Damari and Angel begin to sing together as they flip through the air.

And love you as one does
I, I will protect you at all costs
Keep you safe here in my arms
I, I will protect you at all costs
At all costs

And with that, Damari flips backwards and grips onto the rope. With a smile, Angel crosses his leg over hers and they turn around. As they swing, the spotlight falls on them.

If you're ever feeling like you're lost
I will come find you
Man all fronts, there's no ocean I won't swim across
To be right by you
And not just once, here and now I swear on my response
I'll remind you

Angel reached for her, softening his gaze as he spun the two of them together and gripping her rope. As they leaned in toward one another, Damari looked up and blushes slightly. Nothing so exquisite has ever caught his eye. That was his favorite term. A word that he never imagined he would say in reference to her. Light pink eyes met light blue eyes, fixed on them intently.

And love you as one does
I, I will protect you at all costs
Keep you safe here in my arms
I, I will protect you at all costs
At all costs

After the song was over, Damari and Angel inclined closer. When Angel encircled Damari's waist with his arms, she was blind to it. They shivered as their lips connected by millimeters and they both felt their breaths. Although Angel was unsure of what to do next, it seemed appropriate. He leaned forward, drawn in by her half-lidded eyes.

Suddenly, they heard a familiar shout.

"Angel! Damari! Are you out here?"

That person was Cherri. Both of their faces became pink as they froze in shock. They pull away from each other, smiling awkwardly.

"We-We should head back to the hotel before Cherri start asking questions.." Damari suggested.

"Y-Yeah! Yeah, let's go." Angel agreed.

The two then head out to meet up with Cherri who's looking for them after noticing their disappearance.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Back at the hotel, Charlie is holding Alastor's microphone, preparing to give a speech to the cannibals and the hotel's residents.

"Hello?" she called, tapping the microphone to make sure it works before speaking to them. "I want to thank everyone for coming. Even people who aren't staying here yet...Cherri."

"Look, I can't resist a fight, okay? Especially when I get to tag team with this fuckhead and my gal." Cherri said, wrapping her arms around Angel, who smiles and Damari.

"Tomorrow, the Exorcist Angels will face a Hell ready to defend itself and win!" Charlie declared.

"Yeah! Yeah, we will! Tell 'em, baby!" Vaggie cheered for her girlfriend.

"Yes! And we are-we are going to win! But in case we don't, I want you all to know... that getting to know you has been the biggest honor of my life. Whatever redemption really means, I know you all tried. I have seen the good in all of you. And it's...I-I'm just...I love you all, so much, and-and live tonight however you want because-"

Charlie was cut off by Niffty.

"We're all gonna die!" she laughed maniacally.

This made everyone look at her with awkward silence. Damari winces that Niffty had to ruin the moment. Vaggie starts clapping to try to get them not to think about that.

"Alright! Let's give it up for not dying! Love not dying." she paused to see them not cheering before suggesting something. "Drinks?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Inside the hotel, the gang are sharing drinks, talking and laughing with one another.

"I mean, personally, I'm excited. It's been a while since I stabbed anyone and really meant it, you know what I mean?" Vaggie said.

"Cheers, bitches!" Cherri shouted, holding up her glass.

"Yeah!" Husk agreed.

"Here's to us!" Angel said.

"Here's to being alive today and not dying tomorrow!" Sir Pentious declared, holding up the glass.

Alastor and Niffty watch the rest of the group drinking from the mezzanine.

"Ah, the celebratory night before a courageous last stand. It's been a surprising thrill to witness these wayward souls find connection. Almost makes one sentimental, eh, Niffty?" Alastor commented softly.

"I really like them, Alastor. They let me put on roach puppet shows without booing!" Niffty said, smiling.

"Ah, an enjoyable collective to be around. I admit one could get accustomed." he said, looking down at Damari.

Damari senses his gaze and looks up and gives him a smile. Alastor smiles back, feeling his heart raced a bit. Niffty hops on top of Alastor's head and places a crown made of roaches and sticks on his head.

"I dub thee, King Roach." she declared.

"Oh, to understand your twisted little mind!"

Alastor and Niffty begin laughing maniacally together, signalling that they possibly do understand each other's twisted little minds. Meanwhile, Angel is sitting by the parlor as Husk pours him a drink.

"Last day of afterlife, and you're not off snorting a line off some hunk's abs?" Husk questioned.

"Eh, you fucked one cannibal pool boy, you fucked 'em all." Angel shrugged.

"I guess you have changed." Husk said, giving him a small smile.

"He's right. You have and I'm proud of you." Damari said, approaching him. "And that was a very brave thing you did back at the club."

Angel and Husk turns to her in surprise.

"How'd you know?" Angel asked.

"We were watching you from above in Heaven. And that really took guts to stand up to that moth freak." Damari explained, placing a hand on his shoulder.

This made Angel blush a bit.

"Hey, Charlie said live tonight however we wanted... so pour me a fresh one, and let's get to living!"he said, turning to Husk. "You want another?"

"No thanks. I'm good." Damari shook her head.

As Husk pours Angel another drink, Damari walks away to talk to the Monster High sinners, not noticing Angel and Husk giving her a loving gaze. Pentious tentatively approaches Damari before she could talk to the Monster High sinners.

"Miss Valor? Damari?" he called out.

Damari stops and smiles to see him.

"Hey, Pentious. What is it?"

Charlie is in awe at the sight of those two as hearts bursts out of her before Vaggie pushes her away to give them a room.

"I want to tell you that I...I love..."

This made Damari surprise on what he's going to say until he quickly corrected himself.

"I'd love to wish you good luck in the battle ahead." he finished, shaking Damari's hand.

"Oh, okay."

"You are...have always been a great friend. With the most... brilliant, kindest heart I've ever seen." he said, smiling.

"Oh... uh... thanks." she said, blushing a bit.

"Anyway, I guess...please don't die tomorrow. Okay, bye!"

Sir Pentious runs away as Angel comes up to Damari.

"You know, you could totally tap that." Angel suggested.

"Angel! Don't be gross!!" Damari shrieked, feeling her face turned red.

"Cuz, you know, I hear he's got 2 dicks." he continued with a teasing smile.

"Angel!!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Charlie, standing outside Angel's bedroom door. A few photos of Angel and the rest of the group are stuck to his door. One of the photos shows Angel and Damari smiling together, making a shape of the heart with their fingers. Charlie, looks at them, smiling, before realising that she might never see them again if they lose the battle tomorrow, and begins to break down and cry.

"Charlie?"

Charlie turns to see Vaggie standing in the corridor, watching her. Charlie turns away from her.

"I'm sorry...I'm...I'm just so scared. What if we lose?"

https://youtu.be/tyqHg7UEkyY

You've already done so much

Vaggie begins to walk towards Charlie.

So many lives you've changed
So many souls you've touched
And in the end, if it's only me you've saved

Charlie sings along as the two got close to each other.

There's something that I've been dying to say
More than anything, more than anything
Need you to know I love you more than anything
More than anything

Charlie and Vaggie hold each other close and kiss.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That night, Damari was leaning against the railings of her balcony looking over at the city of Pentagram, feeling both nervous and worried for her friends. She knew that there's no turning back. She just hopes that God forgives her for what she's going to do. She will do what she must to protect them. Charlotte stands next to her, looking up at Damari with worry before nudging her face against her leg. Damari looks down and smiles, patting the pony on the head. Suddenly, she heard a familiar electric bolt and turned to see Vox teleporting out of her phone into her room. Damari immediately gets into her fighting stance along with Charlotte. Vox raises his hands.

"Whoa, easy. I'm not gonna hurt you." he assured her.

"Likely story." Damari rolled her eyes.

"I'm serious. I just wanted to talk to you." Vox said.

She stares at him for a moment and when she notices that he's not kidding, she lowers her guard.

"Talk."

Vox nods and takes a deep breath.

"I'm gonna say this the nicest way as possible—"

Damari looks at him, wondering what he was going to say. Vox approaches her and starts whisper shouting at her face.

"ARE YOU FUCKING INSANE OR ARE YOU SUICIDAL?!!"

Damari flinches back in shock at his sudden outburst.

"W-What??"

"You know what I'm talking about! You're not seriously considering fighting against those angels with those loser friends of yours. You will die!" he continued, sounding... desperate and worried.

Damari couldn't help but scoff at this.

"So what? Now you care about me? As much as I appreciate your concern, I can handle myself. I was trained by Carmilla, so I got it all covered up."

"Damari, be reasonable."

"I am being reasonable. And I'm staying here with my friends and I'm willing to protect them until the very end."

"You're either brave or stupid. Stay with us, the Vees. You can trust us with your safety." Vox said with compassion.

"Sorry, Vox. But I'm standing my ground."

"Your friends aren't worth your life. Especially Alastor. He can go fuck off and die on his own with the rest of those losers."

This made Damari appalled at the audacity Vox had just said. She glares at him as her eyes glows red.

"I suggest you leave. And stay away from them and me. I won't hesitate to annihilate you here and there."

Vox looks shocked at her sudden threat and could see that she's serious. He closes his eyes and takes a deep breath before sighing. Vox looks up at Damari and walks over to her. She flinches back as her back hit against the railings as he places his hands on them on each of her side, facing her up close.

"What are you doing?" she demanded, trying to sound brave.

He said nothing and did something unexpected. He leans his screen face over to hers and places a kiss on the cheek, almost close to her lips. Damari was left shocked at the sudden gesture as he pulls away with a soft gaze.

"Try not to get yourself killed."

With that, he disappeared back into her phone teleporting away. This left Damari shocked at this while Charlotte was speechless.
