It was a normal quiet day at Castle Grim Skull. Mandy was in the office reading the news paper. Life in the Underworld seems to have calm down, since she and the other overlords have reached a peace treaty.( Manly because the other lords didn't wanna have to deal with war). Although they signed the paper, that doesn't mean they aren't friends. Grim and Mandy are also aware that they have spies watching their every move. But she isn't worried about that because the Lords know that Mandy would kill anyone who dares opposes her in combat.

As Mandy continued to read the paper, Grim walked in with a nervous expression on his face. Mandy didn't even look at him as she kept on reading, as she already knew that Grim was going to ask her a question.

"What is it now Grim?" She said as she continued reading.

"Remember when you said no to kids?"

"Yeah whats you're point?" Mandy asked rolling her eyes about this conversation.

"Well I was wondering if it's alright to have one. Just one is all i'm asking." He said with a small nervous smile on his face.

In the past Mandy had told Grim that she does not want any kids or any involvement with them. But deep down Grim always wanted a heir who would continue his legacy as Death. Mandy puts down the paper. She then pulls out a cigarette and lit it with her lighter. She sat there thinking for a moment. Grim had sweat coming down his skull. It was very quiet. A few minutes have already past and Grim was losing hope and started to leave. He was about to open the door until...

"Alright fine. We can have a baby." She said as she blew out a puff of smoke in the air. Saying yes made Grim run over and hug Mandy tightly, but soon lets go after hearing a growl coming from her.

"Oh Mandy you have no idea how excited I am. Oh I better call the orphanage and see if-"

"No."

"Huh? But you just said yes."

"I meant no to the idea of adoption. You think I'm going to have some unknown brat come into my home and get to have a life full of luxury? Then you better think again. This child will be Royal blood only." She warned.

"So tell me, how are we going to have a baby anyway? The last time I checked skeletons can't reproduce."

"Correct, I can't make any of my own. But in order for us to have a baby, we have to find somebody who is willing to impregnate you Mandy. Grim explained.

"So all I have to do is just find a man who is suitable? Seems easy." She said.

"But I don't want just any child Mandy. I want it to be a skeleton just like me. But i'll explain about that later." He said.

Mandy didn't say much after that. She then got up from her chair and grabbed the scythe from his hands and tore open a green portal. Grim didn't say anything neither. He knew exactly what she was going to do.

"I'll back in a hour."

Grim nodded as he watch her leave. He then sat down and started to reflect on everything. He soon realize that he is going to let his wife sleep with a random man just so they can have a baby. But he didn't care, as long as he has someone who he can pass down the scythe to.

~ Few Hours Later~

Grim was in the library dusting off the shelves when all of a sudden the same green portal reappeared. Coming out of it was Mandy. She didn't saying anything as she walked pass to hand back he's scythe, and headed upstairs to her room. Grim soon followed. As he entered he saw Mandy brushing her hair.

"So were you able to find somebody?"

"Yes, but you're not going to be happy when I tell who I was with." She said while still brushing.

I'm sure it can't be that bad."

~ Few seconds later~

"ARE YOU SERIOUS!" Grim shouted.

Mandy just rolled her eyes as Grim who was not only in shock, but was angry after he learn about the father.

"Really Mandy, out of all the guys out there and thats the best you can do?"

"You said find a man, so I did." She told him as she placed the brush down.

"I know what I said, but why him? You know I hate that guy." Grim mumbled to himself.

"Just be lucky that agreed to do this, so quit you're bitching and deal with it like a man."

Grim didn't say a word. He knew that Mandy was right, plus this is what he really wanted for a very long time. But he accepted it and was so happy that he was going to be a father. Mandy however wasn't to thrill about this whole pregnancy, but only did it so Grim would shut up and leave her alone.

" Grim, you said you want this child to be a skeleton. How are we going to do that exactly?" She asked as she slipped into a blue night gown and sat on the edge of the bed.

Soon Grim started to explain that all Mandy has to do is get an abortion, and while thats happening Grim will reap the child's flesh away turning it into a skeleton. Mandy nodded and agreed about the idea. Within a few days later an announcement was made throughout the whole Underworld that the Queen is pregnant.
