Revenge, Pain and Regret
Chapter 2: Regret
(1000 years later)
"Get used to it!" Mandy cried as Grim blubbered now within his third week of being a slave since he lost the limbo game, "you belong to Billy and I now," she said and left a blubbering Grim to be torn apart by her dog Saliva.
"I should never have agreed to play a game with those two," Grim muttered as Saliva gnawed on his bony leg, "I can't believe that I'd do something that I'd regret this badly," he said, "being a lifetime slave to these children will definitely make me regret my very existence," he stated, "few other things have made me feel that way," he said softly as he started to recall an argument with Eris long ago.
(Flashback - 1295 years ago)
"You can't possibly blame me Eris!" Grim cried as Eris gave his a hateful glare and stormed off to her living room, "Dementia was always insane," he continued, "there are a million reasons why she'd kill herself!"
"Oh!" Eris cried furiously, "and a million reasons why she'd burn her own children!" she spat, "she used Hercules's Fire when she burnt her house with her children in it and you know that it kills even anything except the Ultimate God with too much exposure!" she shrieked, "if Deirdre hadn't got Nutria out both of those infants would be suffering greatly right now!"
"But Hatria will survive," Grim persisted, "she's immortal after all and her father got her out in time," he reminded Eris.
"But as what Grim?" Eris demanded, "do you know how hard it is to remove Hercules's fire!" she flared, "if Deirdre hadn't had the special cloak Goddess of Charity had given to her last year all of them would've died!" she cried, "doesn't it matter to you that Demetria the last one of us who knew how to create Hercules's Fire is dead because of you?"
"She did not die because of me!" Grim insisted angrily, "it's not my fault that she killed herself because I rejected her!"
"What was your reason?" Eris demanded, "because she made herself mortal," she answered for him, "you would've dated her at least if she didn't give up her immortality and you know it!"
"So what?" Grim threw back angrily, "she looked a gifted horse in the mouth and deserved what she got in return!" he stated, "I have no regret about not dating her and I'll never have it!" he cried and slapped his scythe against his bony palm.
"Even if it might've saved her life?" Eris asked him desperately.
"Her life was her business," Grim said icily, "she's the one who threw it away by becoming mortal," he said with distaste, "Good Day Eris," he said softly and left.

(Back to the Present)
Yes I feel sorrier for that crazy Dementia now. But there is one thing that I still don't feel. And that's regret! (Grim's thoughts)
"I regret the argument with Eris though," Grim whined as he stared at the bright sky which was a total contrast to how his day was.
