Here's the story.
They were brothers, the older sibling, the god of light, found joy in creating forces of light. Meanwhile, the younger brother, the god of darkness, spent his time creating forces of destruction. The Older one would spend his days creating water plants and wildlife. And at night his brother would wake to see all the things that the elder had made and become disgusted. To counteract his brother's creations, the god of darkness brought drought, fire, famine, all that he could do to rid Remnant of life. But life always returned. So one night, the younger brother went and made something. Something that shared his innate desire to destroy anything and everything. The creatures of Grimm. The older brother had finally had enough. Knowing that their feud couldn't last like this forever, he proposed that they make one final creation. Together. Something they could both be proud of. Their masterpiece. Younger brother agreed. This last great creation would be given the power to both create and destroy. It would be given the gift of knowledge so that it could learn about itself, and the world around it. And most importantly, It would be given the power to choose. To have free will to take everything it learned and decide which path to follow: The Path of Light, Or the path of darkness. However fair this agreement seemed to the younger brother, he decided to also add his own twist without the elder's knowledge. The power to control the Creatures of Grimm by a specific ritual. And that is how humanity came to be. Many years passed, and soon, the ritual was lost in time. With the remaining Grimm users quickly losing their morality from the power, they refused to release the ritual to others and eventually began to lash out against those who also had the power to control the Dark beasts. Soon all but one User remained. A young and very powerful woman. Salem. But what the Younger brother failed to notice, was that Elder had noticed this scheme and had made something to counter this menace. The silver-eyed warriors. For they could return the insane Users into their previous selves. Fear led to chaos. And Soon very few remained of these people. Forced to go into hiding, both Salem And the silver-eyed warriors bid their time until it was right to strike.

Patch. One of the largest island of the coast of the Vale kingdom. Not only was signal Academy located here, but it is also home to hundreds of families one of them being the illustrious Arc family. Everybody on Patch knew that both Sam and Karen Arc loved children. So it was no surprise when all eight siblings came around. In fact, it was more surprising to patch that they stopped AT eight. They had Seven girls and one boy, whom they appeared to love equally. However, in reality, almost the entire Arc family hated Jaune Arc, the sole son of the family. He was too weak to them. Jaune was often beaten and shunned by both his parents and sisters. Only the eldest sister would ever reach out to the poor boy. So when the young boy went missing in the woods, they were quite happy; unaware of the terror that awaited them in the near future.

'Sapphire will never find me here!' thought an 8-year-old Jaune Arc. Currently, the arc children were engaged in a game of hiding and seek. His eldest sister, age 11, Sapphire, was seeking. Jaune himself was hiding behind a stump deep in the patch forest. Of Course, Jaune did not know that he was that far deep into the forest. Confident his sister would never be able to find him, Jaune began to explore. While looking around he saw what he thought was black fur on a bush. Intrigued by this mystical item, Jaune picked it up and stuffed it in his pocket. After about thirty minutes, Jaune began to get worried. Had he gone too far into the forest? 'No way! I would have realized if I did.' he thought to himself. He was torn out of his internal thoughts by a loud noise.
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAR!" Slowly Jaune looked behind himself. Standing there, was a beowolf about 8 feet tall. It was covered in white bones and spikes, but it's most creepy feature, was it's glowing, red eyes. Jaune looked around for a place to hide, but he was clad in black pants and a blue jacket, he didn't exactly blend in with his surroundings. Fearing for his life, Jaune began to run as fast as he could. Despite his best efforts, the beowolf caught up with Jaune in a mere three seconds. Grasping the back of Jaune's Jacket, the grimm brutally threw Jaune to the ground. Turning his gaze to the menacing sight before him, Jaune began to whimper as tears began to stream down his face. The maw filled with murderous teeth leaned closer as Jaune began to scream. When the Beowolf's deadly jaws were mere inches away from burying themselves into the young boy's neck, Jaune began to glow a bright white color. It was at this moment the deadly beast struck. As teeth dug into Jaune's neck, The bright white light became a pitch black. The beowolf chose this moment to release its grip on the child's neck as he felt something it had never felt before towards any other creature besides its creator, respect. The Beowolf watched in what could be considered fascination as bony plates began to grow from the bite marks on Jaune's neck. His once beautiful sky blue eyes turned a sickening shade of blood red. As soon as the apparent transformation was finished, Jaune passed out in a puddle of his own blood.

When Jaune did not return to the Arc family home after about an hour, all the inhabitant's bar one hoped the worst had happened and that Jaune was dead. And thus, no search party was assembled.
(Meanwhile)
Jaune finally awoke after what had felt like hours. His hands quickly clutched his head as he felt a splitting headache coming on. As his headache began to fade, Jaune began to wonder what had happened to him... that is until he felt something like his cheek. The 8-year-old child yelped as he backed away from the unlikely source of the affectionate act. As the one who had licked him was the same Creature of Grimm that had attacked him. Although fearful, curiosity overtook the young boy's body as he slowly approached the beowolf. When finally having reached the beowolf, Jaune extended a hand and reached out to pet the large Creature. It happily obliged by pushing its head into the palm of the boy's hand. What was making this creature act like this? As Jaune subconsciously pet the ferocious puppy, he realized how worried his parents must be.
"I need to go home," He stated to the animal.
Jaune proceeded to get up and began to run the entire way home, unaware of the tragedy he was about to face.

"He's Finally gone!" Shouted a Jubilant Karen Arc. It had been nearly two hours since Jaune Arc had gone missing and his mother was currently throttling the living daylight out of her husband.
"I'm so glad that weakling is dead!" Sam replied. Truth to be told, Sam had not taken a break from drinking since the discovery and had only stopped by to see if Jaune had returned. The couple continued their joyful banter until the sound of a door opening caused a deafening silence.
"Hey, Mom! I'm Sorry I took so long! I made a new friend!" Jaune yelled out as he entered the house.
Karen stumbled towards child only to recoil in disbelief and fear. Sam quickly followed his wife, proceeding to draw his sword.
"Wait, Dad! It's friendly, see?" Jaune proceeded to scratch the chin of the eight-foot beowolf standing behind him.
"Y-you're not my son! You never were! You're just weak boy! And now? Now you're a Monster!" With that statement, Sam proceeded to charge at the young boy. Jaune clenched his eyes closed in fear. Suddenly, both Jaune's body and the Beowolf's arms began to glow a faint purple. Mere moments later the Beowolf sprang into action. Batting aside the blow like it was done by a child, the huntsman was now wide open, without a shield to normally protect him. The wolf the Plunged its enormous claws into the man's abdomen. Blood began to pool at Sam's mouth as he was thrown to the ground. About a second later, the large grimm bit down on the man's neck, and Sam Arc was no more. Tears began to flow down both Karen and Jaune's cheeks.
"You Peice of shit! I wish i had gone through with that damn abortion and never had you!"
That was the final nail in the coffin for Jaune's mental state.
He began to giggle, which soon evolved into a full blown laugh. Jaune began to walk over to sword that lay in his dead father's hands. Picking it up he began to slowly creep towards his mother. Karen looked on in fear as she began to step backwards until she tripped. Jaune was now right in front of his mother. He lifted the sword and plunged it into her heart.
As Karen bled out on the floor, Jaune turned towards his beowolf ally."I think I'll call you Reaper!"
Reaper turned its head and started to wag its tail. Jaune took this as a sign of acceptance. "Come on buddy, we have work to do." And with that statement, Jaune and his loyal companion set out to hunt down the boy's sisters.
Whew! That took a bit to type. So like I said beforehand, the pairing is undecided. I will be taking ideas and shipping suggestions in the review section. If you have something particular you want to tell me then feel free to pm me. Thanks for reading the first chapter of Grimmace with a Smile.
