Summary
Cuphead and Mugman made the mistake of gambling their souls away at the Devil’s casino and now are faced with a choice…they can either surrender their souls, or go to retrieve the contracts of the Devil’s previous runaway debtors and let them share their fate.
Or could they find these runaways and turn them to their side, for one last stand against the devil?
This is the story of Cuphead, Mugman, and Chalice if things had gone a different way: and they formed a camaraderie with their fellow debtors to stand against the Devil.
Also feel free to check out the comic that is based on this AU/fic!EDIT: I've put the original 4 chapters (the introduction all into one chapter to make it easier to follow!)

Summary
"Say goodbye to Cuphead!" cackled The Devil, holding Mugman tight.
"Goodbye to Cuphead," Mugman whimpered.
In a flash of brimstone and hellfire, Cuphead helplessly watched as his brother was spirited away by The Devil himself. In that moment, he knew he needed to do two things: Find help and get his brother back, no matter the cost.

Summary
Deities, beings of immense, incomprehensible magic of ancient sorts. Often prayed to by lowly mortals for whatever falls under their magic’s influence. None had thought that their beloved deities could ever be just as faulty as them. That is, until a century ago, when the corruption began. It started slowly, but grew faster than any could process or prevent, and so, their once cherished gods were locked away on Inkwell’s Isles. Trapped and bound to their home with the hope that they’d regain themselves, best the corruption, and take up their roles once more.
It’s been so long that even those precious few deities who hadn’t fallen had almost given up on ever seeing their fellow gods return. The god of fortune was the last one to try his hand at surveying what the current state was, and rumors had it he’d been captured by the Devil himself on Isle three. The god of wisdom and magic, known as Elder Kettle, hopes the children he finds, clearly future gods, are the answer. But they're too young to be of any help currently, he has to raise them first.
Too bad Elder Kettle had fallen into a bit of corruption on his own. Too bad he simply didn't tell his charges need to know information. Damn shame really.

Summary
What happens when you sell your soul? That’s a question I’ve asked my elderly caretaker many times. He would tell me not to worry about it, yet only answered it the day Cuphead went missing; however, he never gave me the full details on it. He told me that when someone sells their soul, they’re a lost cause. They were barely seen, and they became a permanent slave for the Devil. I asked him if he thought that’s what happened to Cup, and he would respond with a hopeful message saying that Cup could’ve just gotten himself lost.
Elder Kettle, I wish you could read this, however no matter how hard I try you’ll never be able to even catch a glimpse. Even hoping for you to get this would be silly, as we have no way in contact. It's all his fault, and I’m sorry for it. You were the best caretaker one could ever have, and I love you so much. I should’ve never brought myself into Cuphead’s horrible ways. Now I have to sit in here and suffer. I am so, so sorry.
Yet I shouldn’t be apologizing for it, because it’s all of his fault.
----
There is a surprising amount of consequences that selling your soul could leave to, but Mugman never imagined anything like this.
