Hey Everyone, this is Amazer returning with a brand new chapter after...
THREE YEARS?!
I guess I had no idea how to continue after the first chapter.
Plus, I also didn't want to rip off Technomaru's fanfic The Grim Edventures of Ed,Edd n Eddy, so I just let this story float as a one shot for a while.
Now, I feel that I can take this story in a completly different direction than that story, alongside the canon of Star, and with the world of Billy and Mandy, it may get even weirder than it already is.
So, let's return to this goulish universe of magic and undead comedy!
The sun shined on another peaceful morning in Echo Creek. The birds sang, squirrels chirped, and magic spells were being blasted-wait, what was that last one?!
Ah, yes, the Diaz household. Inside, Marco was busy reading a karate magazine and Star was busy blasting spells all around the living room, as she was practicing the lessons from her spell book.
Grim was outside near the cacti garden, sharpening his scythe when he heard a massive blast come from inside the house. As he opened the door, he was splashed with water and narwhals.
He sighed in annoyance. Star saw the Reaper dry himself off and said nervously,
"Oh, um, sorry Grim! I was just busy practicing my spells!"
Grim replied,"Eh, don't worry, child. I've had worse."
As he was wringing out his hood, he took note of the dimensional scissors lying near the bag of empty potato chips from several days ago.
"Say, Ms. Butterfly, you have possession of dimensional scissors?",asked Grim.
Star stopped her training and replied, "Oh yeah! My friend Pony Head gave them to me when we were at the Arcade Dimension. How'd you know about these things?"
Grim sat near Marco, who scooted farther from the Reaper, and explained,
"See, Star, I am not just linked to Earth, but to de entire universe as well."
Star nodded in response as she chewed on her wand.
Grim continued, "So, if anyone from another dimension presumably dies in dis one, I take dem out as well, as dey are a part of de universe."
Marco, hearing in on the discussion, said, "That sounds crazy!"
Grim replied, "Well, as reaper, it's an easy job for me!"
He then broke out into cackling laughter, sending a chill down Star and Marco's spines.
Just then, Rafael, Marco's father,arrived in the room and bellowed,
"Hello kids, who wants breakfast?"
Star became jittery and excited, shouting, "WHOO! Breakfast!"
She then ran into the kitchen, with Marco walking after her.
Rafael turned to Grim and asked, "Care to join us?"
Grim checked his watch to see if there were any souls to be collected. When he saw that his next appointment wasn't until the afternoon, he silently thought. "Huh. Dat's strange. Usually, people throughout de universe would be losin' their souls about now. Better look into dis later."
Grim then put his watch away and replied to Rafeal, "Alright."
The Diaz household and Grim sat down to dine on their respective breakfast of choice: Angie and Rafeal had morning coffee, Star and Marco had cereal, and Grim just summoned a bowl of monster cereal from the underworld.
Angie asked Star and Marco," So, is your new friend from another dimension? Like you, Star?"
Star nervously chuckled,"Uh, you could say that..."
Marco stammered, "He, uh, is kinda...from..."
He struggled to spit out the last word,"...The underworld..."
Both Angie and Rafeal's eyes widened.
Grim took note of this and said,"Relax, Mr. and Mrs. Diaz. I haven't come to terrorize their souls. Dey requested me to be their...friend...and to protect dem from supernatural threats too dangerous for dem to handle."
Both Star and Marco looked at Grim with confused looks. Grim gave them a glare to cooperate with the fabricated reason, to which they did.
Angie and Rafeal looked at Grim nervously, then looked back at each other.
Both took a deep breath. They looked at Star and Marco, who shrugged awkwardly.
Angie sighed and said, "Fine. I guess you can stay here. Just don't try to steal their souls."
Grim nodded in affirmation.
