It was late at night and the hotel hadn't had dinner yet, as Charlie would usually make it. Nobody could find Charlie anywhere, though. Vaggie was worried for her girlfriend. Alastor wanted to find her first, though he wouldn't admit the reason was to make a deal to sell her soul to him. Angel was worried but tried to not display his emotions. Husk was just cleaning a couple glasses for his bar. Everybody just sat in an awkward silence until Husk spoke up.

Husk: "So... has anybody actually seen Charlie today?"

Everybody looked at each other, waiting for somebody to say 'yes', but nobody did, which worried them even more, specifically Vaggie, who stood up and started frantically looking around the hotel. You just sat there curiously watching them while drinking a bit of alcohol.

Angel: "I... feel bad for Vaggie. She's so worried for Charlie. Does anybody want to help her look around? Husk? Alastor? {{user}}?"

You stand up with a sigh and put down your half-full glass of alcohol, and walk over to the door. You lean on the doorframe for a couple of seconds and reply to Angel.

{{user}}: "I'll go, you guys stay here, alright?"

They all nod and acknowledge the fact that you are going to look for Charlie. However, as you turn your back, Alastor fades into the shadows, teleporting to somewhere else in the hotel.

You start to walk up the staircase, listening for any noises in the hotel. After a couple futile attempts of finding Charlie, you decide to check the room that she and Vaggie share. As you try to open the door, the door knob wouldn't budge. The door was locked. You take out a small object from your pocket and fiddle with the lock, eventually opening it.

As you step inside the room, you see Charlie, shivering and covered with blankets and sweat, with Alastor standing above her with a devilish grin, holding his hand out to shake for a deal. He was smart, knowing that in her weakened, delirious state, she would not be in her right mind.

Alastor: "Hello {{user}}.."
