[Setting: Grimm Household] [Puck: 12 Sabrina: 12 Daphne: 8]

I shuffled down the stairs and headed toward the kitchen table. Ugly and Marshmallow were already there getting ready for school. School was fun, but only because you got to annoy the teachers and pull pranks on the weird students. But it was extremely boring when you had to do work. You know, the shuddering thing they call "homework".

I sat down in the only available chair and shoved food into my mouth. It tasted like spicy, honey mustard sausages. Not bad for the old lady when you think about the other weirder things she made.

Ugly sat there with a green face. Her plate was just the same as always. Untouched.

"You going to eat that?" I asked with my mouth full.

She gave me an evil glare.

"No," she answered, and dumped it on my plate. While I ate, I saw Ugly helping Marshmallow with her homework.

"Then why the heck does seven times eight equal fifty-six?" Marshmallow asked.

"Ugh!" Ugly threw up her hands. "Work with me here, Daphne!"

I swallowed and said, "Just think of seven ugly Sabrinas…". I stopped to point at Ugly and took a quick drink of milk. "…Times eight disgusting bugs on her face."

Marshmallow nodded happily. "I get it now!" she exclaimed happily. "Thanks, Puck! Gosh Sabrina, Puck's a way better tutor than you'll ever be." She laughed.

Ugly looked about ready to slap Marshmallow, but she just furiously grabbed her backpack and walked out the door angrily.

"Don't worry, Marshmallow," I said. "She's just jealous."

The old lady waved goodbye as we headed our way down the path to school.

"Okay, so I get that math problem, but I still need to learn the others," she revealed. "Any tips, Puck?"

"Nope," I said and burped. She ignored me the rest of the way to school.

When we got there, we parted ways and headed to our first classes. English with Ugly.

I gave high-fives to some of my friends and sat down. Ugly looked interested in a "girl" conversation, so I decided to leave her alone.

[Setting: Lunchtime in the School Cafeteria]

I grabbed a cafeteria tray and sat down in my usual spot, next to Marshmallow. Ugly was off with some of her other friends.

Marshmallow was having a conversation with one of her school friends. The school friend said, "I thought we were a team, Daphne! I thought you said that you were a multiplication pro! But we both got big fat Fs! Thanks a lot!" The "friend" stormed away. She had blonde hair with blue eyes, but now the blue eyes seemed like a furious red. They probably had one of those partner tests during math.

Tears slid down Marshmallow's face, and Ugly came over to see what the matter was. "Daphne, did you get rejected?"

"No," she sobbed. "Go away!" She slapped Ugly on the arm, and it left a small mark. Ugly looked embarrassed as some people watched with curiosity.

"I was just trying to help," she announced. Then she walked away to go sit with her friends again.

[Setting: The Next Morning at the Grimm Household]

I came down the stairs once again for another dull school day. Ugly was at the table, but there was weirdly no Marshmallow. The old lady was in tears with a handkerchief pulled out, dabbing at her tired eyes.

"Where's Marshmallow?" I asked.

The old lady wiped her tears away and explained, "Mayor Charming just called us this morning. Daphne died in a building last night. She was murdered."

I almost choked with surprise, and then I turned angry. "Who did this and where? And why was she even in this "building"?" I had to admit, this was pretty random and surprising news. It wasn't a joke, was it?

"They don't know. The police are going to check for fingerprints later, once they collect the equipment for it. It happened in the old abandoned building down the road."

Ugly and I had to go to school since the old lady insisted, so we waved goodbye somberly. You could hear the old lady's sobs from outside the house.

"Hey." Ugly turned to me while walking. "Let's go and check out that building right now."

I couldn't believe Ugly was going to be that sneaky, but I was all in.

We entered the dark building and closed the door behind us. Everything was dark and you couldn't see anything. I felt around for Ugly's hair and grabbed on it.

She yanked away in annoyance and told me, "You search over there, and I'll search over here."

She seemed to be pointing out directions, but I couldn't see so I just muttered, "Okay."

Some wandering around later, I heard feet walking. It was in the room next to me, so I entered it quietly. I do have to admit I was scared though.

There was a window, which produced a dull, faint light. There was a girl around my age with blonde hair and blue eyes. Shockingly, I knew who she was! She was the girl who talked to Marshmallow about the Fs yesterday. I didn't know an eight year old would be so violent with a grade! She was the killer.

But the girl was quick. She told me, "Daphne was annoying me too much, so I had to kill her. I hope you understand."

She grabbed a knife out of nowhere and sunk into my chest. I was near the window now, and the window produced more light when closer to it. No, it wasn't true. I blinked a couple of times before focusing on the culprit.

Sabrina Grimm.
