Return to Me Mandy
Summary: Mandy has left Endsville and Billy just can't seem to understand why Mandy is gone. Surprising ending!

Hello again readers! Space-of-Aces here to say sorry it's been forever since I last posted anything! I really do mean it. Please R&R (flames accept)
It's been two weeks since Mandy and her family had moved away from Endsville. After all the goodbyes where said and punches (mostly at Irwin from trying to kiss Mandy goodbye over and over again) thrown the peacefulness of the town had returned or as peaceful as it got in Endsville when you have the Grim Reaper living in your neighborhood. Billy noticed something was wrong.
"Hmmm….. Something's WRONG here!" Stated the large nosed, red haired boy who was lying upside down on the couch while his nose dripped all over his face and trying to count the dripping coming from his nose for no apparent reason what so ever.
"What are you talking about man?" Replied the skeleton man in a large black cloak wearing a flower apron over it carrying out a tray of cookies just out of the oven to the table when the boy saw this and jumped up from the couch and over to the skeleton man trying to get the very hot cookies.
"GIVE ME COOKIES!!!! GIVEMEGIVEMEGIVEME!!!!"
"Hold your horses man! I just took them out of the oven! You want to burn your tongue that badly again?"
The boy stopped for a second and looked like he was in deep thought for maybe a moment or two. While he thought the skeleton man put the tray down onto the table to let the cookies cool off. When he turned his back to the boy the boy took the opportunity to grab a hand full and stuff them into his mouth.
"HOT!!!! HOTHOTHOTHOTHOTHOTHOTHOTHOTHOT!!!!!"
The boy quickly turned on the water from the kitchen sink almost at full blast and stuck his tongue under it to let it cool down.
"DANG NABIT BILLY! WHAT DID I TELL YOU MAN?!"
The boy took his tongue, now large as his nose, out from the water.
"Sawwe Guim…" The boy replied with his swollen tongue. He put it back under the water and then something new to the boy happened. He realized something. Someone usually stopped him before he burnt his tongue or any part of his body. But WHO? Who was it that stopped him from doing stupid things like stealing hot cookies from the oven or made sure he wore his underwear on his butt instead of his head like it should be. Things were just not right now. Something was wrong and even Billy was smart enough to figure that out. Billy turned off the water when his tongue had returned to normal size. And looked over to the Grim Reaper sitting on the couch watching TV.
"Hey Grim…."
"What is it child? Can't you see I'm watching me soaps?"
"I was just wondering….." As Billy said this he went over to the back of the couch where Grim was still sitting watching his soaps and decided to poke Grim with his scythe for a while. Finally when Grim couldn't take it anymore he turned to Billy how poked the scythe into Grim's eye socket.
"What is it Billy? Spit it out!"
"Where's Mandy?"
"MANDY??? Child you can't be seriously telling me you don't know!"
"Know what????"
"Mandy's gone Billy. She's been gone for weeks now."
Billy just looked at Grim with his stupid look and poked him with the scythe in his eye socket once more just because it seemed like a good idea at the time.
"Stop that Billy." He grabbed his scythe back from the idiot boy. "I've told you time and time again not to play with me scythe!"
"But I was just poking you with it in the EYE!"
"I know, that's what makes you even more annoying. If I hadn't promised Mandy not to reaper you without her present I would have reaped you the day she left!"
The mention of the angry blondes name made something inside Billy snap back to the topic he wanted answers too. Why was Mandy gone? It just didn't fit inside his already very tiny brain. It was making him think, and thinking hurt.
"OW!!! OWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!!!!!"
"Calm yourself child! What in underworld has gotten into you?"
"BRAIN HURTING!!! THINKING HURTS!!!"
Grim jumped up from this comment. Billy was THINKING? Things had to be bad when Billy actually was trying to think about something other then picking his nose or eating something completely disgusting that only fate knows why hasn't killed him yet. And he should know, he WAS the Grim Reaper after all. So Grim grabbed Billy to stop him from running around and around on the ground before he really hurt himself.
"What in the world could you be thinking about so hard that you hurt your brain man?!"
Billy stopped holding his head in pain as the hurtful thinking stopped long enough for Billy to answer. It was a good thing too. Grim was about to mane the boy from all that screaming.
"I think I was thinking about why Mandy ain't around no more. I just don't gets it! Where did Mandy GO?!"
"Billy we went threw this already! Mandy is gone! She moved far away from Endsville never to return until the day I reap your soul."
"Mandy's……gone far away?"
"Yes child! Now leave the matter alone before you drive both of us insane!"
"OK!" Billy jumps out of Grims hands and runs upstairs laughing like the moron he is.
Months pass by and Billy does more and more stupid things with Grim but something always seems to stop him from doing anything really dangerous. Almost like something from far away is telling him not to do it. And every time Grim saves Billy from whatever he had done Billy would just go quietly to Mandy's old house and sit outside it and wait until nightfall or when his stomach growled, whichever one came first, and then go back home feeling somewhat sad. This started to worry the Grim Reaper and the only thing that should worry the Grim Reaper is when all the old people of the world figure out that good healthy eating and exercise really does make you immortal. Then who will he reap? So Grim did the only thing he could think to do while he watched Billy yet again sit on the grass of Mandy's old house after saving him from a giant tornado of tacos, nachos, and steaming hot nacho cheese that Billy had made not moments ago because he was bored and hungry for Mexican food. Grim decided to call Mandy.
"Hello?" Replied a somewhat annoyed female voice after the phone rang and rang with on one picking it up.
"Hello Mandy. We need to talk."
"Grim?!"
"Yes Mandy it's me. We have a problem man. It's Billy."
"Billy? But I thought you said…"
"I know what I said man! And I wasn't lying to ya when I told you that but this is different matter."
"What's going on Grim? And don't try to pull any funny business with me."
"You see man, it's like this. Ever since you left Billy has well been acting strange."
"Billy always acts strange Grim, if that's all I'm hanging up."
"Wait a minute Mandy! Let me finish!"
"Alright but make it quick. I have homework to finish."
"What I mean by strange is that Billy is thinking more. Really thinking! And not only that man but he's not doing things as stupid as he use too! The sad part is that every time it looks like he's about to do something completely stupid and I have to save him from it he just stops and walks over to your old place and sits there and stares at it until he gets hungry or it gets dark. It ain't healthy man!"
As Grim continues to tell Mandy about what else is wrong with Billy, Billy decides to come back into the house for some of those left over tacos and nachos with cheese from his tornado from earlier. As he sits there at the kitchen table eating his food, Billy become aware that Grim is on the phone. So Billy watches Grim while he eats.
"This sounds serious Grim. I think I should come down and see him even if it's just for a second."
"You know you can't do that man! I told you what will happen if you see that boy again!"
"I know Grim, but I'm worried about that idiot. If things are really like you say they are then maybe it would be best if I did come back."
"No, you already know that you would tempting fate if you came back to Endsville let alone see Billy. Its too dangerous Mandy and you know it!"
Billy's eyes go wide at the sound of Mandy's name. Could it be true? Mandy was on the phone with Grim. Then Billy decided to do something somewhat stupid but somewhat smart. He was getting that phone from Grim and begging Mandy to come back Endsville where her home really is even if it killed him.
"But Grim!"
"Now listen to me child! You and I both know what will happen if you come back to see Billy. I should have known better then to have called you just because I was worried about that idiot."
Billy slowly got under the table and inched closer and closer to Grim while Grim remained unaware of the fact Billy was even back in the house. Just as Billy got behind Grim, Grim looked outside to see Billy wasn't where he should be.
"OH SWEET JOE DOGS! Billy's gone!"
"GONE?! Grim what are you saying!?"
Then Grim turns to see Billy getting ready to jump at him.
"AHH!! WHAT THE HECK MAN!?"
"Grim what is it?"
But before Grim could answer Billy grabbed the phone from Grim bolted into his room and locked the door before Grim knew what hit him. Then Billy sat down on his bed and put the phone to his ear.
"Grim? GRIM?! What's going on? Is Billy ok? Grim… why aren't you answering me? GRIM?!"
As Billy listened he started to cry.
"Grim…?"
" Hiya Mandy. *sniff and sobs a little more* How ya been?"
Billy heard a gasp from Mandy's side of the phone. He knew she was surprised to hear him.
"B-Billy?"
"That's right Mandy. *sniffs harder* It's your old pal Billy."
Then Grim starts to pound on Billy's bedroom door.
"Billy! Open up Billy! Give me that phone!"
"NEVER!!!"
Billy ducks under his bed with the phone.
"Don't worry Mandy; I won't let Grim take you away from me ever again."
"Billy…"
"Yeah Mandy?"
"You have to give the phone back to Grim."
"B-B-B-But Mandy! He'll keep you away from me again! I just got you back!"
"Billy I'm not coming back. I can never come back to Endsville."
"B-B-B-B-But why Mandy!? I needs you to make me not do stupid stuffs no more!"
"Because I can't Billy."
Just then Grim breaks down the door and pulls Billy out from under his bed. Billy starts to scream.
"Now gimme that phone Billy! I'm warning ya! You're messing with forces you do not understand!"
"NEVER!!!"
Then Grim and Billy get into a tug-a-war over the phone. During the fight Billy accidently pushes the speaker button. Not the best idea when Mandy is getting angrier then normal.
"WOULD YOU TWO IDIOTS STOP IT AND LISTEN TO ME?!?!"
They both drop the phone and sit on the floor out of habbit.
"That's better. Grim explain it to Billy why I can't come back to Endsville. Billy sit down and shut up while Grim tells you exactly why I had to move away. When you two morons are done you can call me back. Until then I'm going to get off here and get my homework done."
With that Mandy hangs up on them. Grim stands up getting ready to explain everything to Billy. But before he can Billy takes the phone into his arms and hugs it while crying some more and little more of his snot drenches him. The Grim Reaper sighs and walks out of Billy's room to give him a little privacy.
"But Mandy… I needs you… Return to me Mandy…." And Billy lays down still hugging the phone tightly sobbing himself to sleep.
THE END!!!
No, I'm kidding. This is supposed to be a short story/one shot so sorry I went over board. So this is going to turn into a long two part story. Why? Because I can! (Yes I realize there are spelling errors. You have to remember Billy isn't the smartest pig in the basket. He does talk with grammar errors.) I should have the next half up tonight if I don't die from all this typing.
