Author's note; I hope you like this chapter, this chapter starts with David and Penlope at the age of nine, that's Billy and Mandy in their passed life, just so you don't get confused.
On with the story!
There she was Penelope she couldn't be no older than the age nine. In a field of wild flowers looking for her playmate.
"Come out David." She yelled looking for him the best she can looking in bushes and, the tall grass.
She never received an answer in the last five minutes that seemed like an eternity to her.
"Please come out." There was a hint of worry in her voice. "If my father finds you; Your dead." Her father and his father, never got along the two countries were at war...the only way Penelope and David can talk.
To each other is though Grim...they own the Grim Reaper at the age of five back, when the two families got along.
Penelope's puppy was dying and the only way to save that puppy was to play a game of Chess, and David won although, it was Penelope's puppy. So they both owned him.
Penelope gave up on her search for David. 'Maybe I'll never find him.' Her thoughts had no hope in them.
She felt a tap on her shoulder it almost made her jump. "Penelope." His voice was soft to her, she turned around to see David his sapphire blue eyes met with her emerald green.
Penelope turned around and slapped him. "Don't scare me like that!"
"Penelope I had to your father was here, if he found me we're both dead." He explained.
She looked down at him in guilt for slapping him "I am sorry David."
He rubbed his hand on his red handprint on his face. "It's okay"
She smiled at him weakly Penelope rarely smiles in fact nobody, (other than David); has seen her smile.
Some say her smile was only wasn't meant for unworthy, eyes but that wasn't it... the fact that Penelope never smiled was because she never really had a good reason to, but David was her only exception.
"Come here." The brown haired girl said playfully.
"Alright..."
David wasn't expecting what just got, a kiss it was the first time for either one them.
He pulled away from her after a minute.
"Are you feeling alright?" He asked he was really he concerned.
'This isn't like Penelope.'
The young girl never shown any sing of affection before, (Other than a smile)
She never wanted to, she never shown these emotions towards anybody.
Why him? They were friends sure, but not like that.
"Yes I am fine, David I was just worried that's all."
Mandy awoken from her slumber, she's been having dreams like this all night.
She can't get back to sleep, it's only five in the morning school doesn't start for another two hours. She got dressed, and left the house. She needed to think, taking a walk...maybe that's just the thing.
She walked down a corner, it's so hard to believe so many teens are making out on the sidewalk of the streets in the morning...she shuddered at the sight of them.
'Are these people stupid or something?' Her thoughts were wondering.
then those dreams she been having...
'Princess Penelope and Prince David...was that the other life that voice was talking about?'
'No it couldn't be.' Mandy shook her head..."I'll ask Grim about it later." She muttered.
"This law...I can't do it...but I can't get rid of Grim either." She spoke to herself.
This law has been on her mind since the first time she heard about, what really gets her mad is, it's not entirely her choice. Both her and Billy have to agree and they never agree on anything let alone marriage.
At the corner of the sidewalk her and Billy ran to each other on accident.
"Oww." He hit his head on Mandy's it was an accident.
"Watch were your going!" She snapped at him.
He helped her up; as she looked at him she can't help but notice; He's waring nothing but black.
In a weird way she liked it, that then again she liked the color black, that what she mainly wares anymore.
'I thought he hated that color of clothes.' She thought to herself.
"Billy why are you waring black?"
"Uh...I don't know."
"I thought you hated black clothes."
"Well I..."
'I can't tell her the truth she won't believe me.' Billy thought to himself.
"I was playing a game with Milkshakes." He lied.
"In black?" Mandy asked.
"Yeah, it's his favorite color."
"How stupid..." Mandy muttered.
"What was that?"
"Nothing important."
"So about this law thing..." Billy asked changing the subject
"Do you want to get married or not?" Mandy questioned almost curious, there are many Guys that really chase, after Mandy...but she always beats them up, or gets rid of them one way or another. The thought of Billy being one them made her shudder, although if did she marry him It would give her an excuse not to date.
"How much time do we have left?"
"Thirteen days..."
"Still thinking." Billy replied.
"Really," there was slight pause in her voice. "Do you like me?"
"I don't know...won't you get fired for being married as a nun?" He's being stupid, then again He's always stupid.
"I am not a nun!" She yelled at him.
"Then stop dressing in black and love me." He replied.
She slapped him right across the face...
"Don't tell me that!" That was Mandy's only response...she didn't want to love anybody Let alone him as for not dressing black anymore that's another thing she won't give up she has been waring nothing but black and white for two years now. Why change?
Billy rubbed on the sore spot on his face, he was lucky that Mandy didn't beat him up for that the last guy who told her what to do is still in the hospital, and that was three months ago.
"Why?" That was his only question for her.
She glared at him, if looks could kill he would be dead right now...if was he smart enough to drop dead.
"So well you marry me or not?" He sounded almost serious, if he is being serious this would be a first.
'How romantic.' Mandy thought to herself sarcastically.
"We have thirteen days." She said in her usual tone of voice.
"Then let's wait..." Billy didn't know if he wanted to marry Mandy or not...sure she was pretty to him and every other guy there was but she was always so mean and bitter, but he didn't want to lose Grim either. He was sure Mandy felt the same way, about not wanting to lose Grim or getting married, especially if she's nun. The other reason he didn't want to get married was because it meant no more dating and Billy dates alot.
After ten minutes of silence that seemed like forever too Mandy...she was the first to speak.
"What are we going to tell are parents?" This is probably one of things they should be thinking about if they do get married.
"That we are playing wedding day." Now that's a stupid answer.
"We are not ten I don't think they'll buy it."
"Oh," He started to think, "Hey I have an idea."
"What is it?" Mandy so was desperate to find any way around this law even if it means to listening to one of Billy's idiotic ideas of course she highly doubts if it's a good idea.
"We get married than get a divorce, after a couple of months; then we spilt custody of Grim."
"Billy that's got to be the stupidest idea," then she started to rethink that. "That's got to be the single most brilliant idea you ever came up with." "Yeah I know." He said proudly.
"But the martial relations?" That's another thing Mandy didn't want to do especially with him and, since he already had a smart enough idea about marriage maybe he has an idea for that too.
Then on second thought she better not push her luck.
"Oh yeah..." He started to daze off.
Mandy was getting annoyed, by this...she slapped him.
'He better not be daydreaming.' She thought to herself.
"Oww...Stop doing that!"
"Next time it'll be worse." That's all she said to him.
Meanwhile with Grim...
"Thirteen days and I am free." He told himself. He was finally getting of those brats.
he couldn't be any happier but the thought of them getting married just they keep him did pass through his mind; but why would Mandy ever agree to that?
'Unless they...' He shook his head. 'They'll never remember that.'
He could remember what Penelope told him right after she died when she was in the after life.
well wasn't exactly the after life it was more the boarder line of hell...and David was going to heaven.
The reason Penelope was going to hell was because she murdered people, David was going to heaven because he was good.
(flashback 500 years earlier.)
Grim was in a red fiery room that had that stunk of fire and brimstone, this was part of Penelope's hell.
He was only there to break off the bet; But the information he is about to receive might change, his mind.
"Hello Penelope." His voice was shaky.
Penelope turned around and looked at him she dressed nothing but black, her hair was black.
She looked more gothic than usual.
"They still won't let me see David." Was he the only thing on her mind she's dead she should be thinking about other things, like how she's going to spend the rest of eternity.
"Do you always have to see him?" Grim responded.
"Am dead." She told him cynical tone of voice.
"And?"
'Is David the only thing on her mind? I know their soul mates, but that's a little crazy.' Grim thought to himself.
"We're both dead...I think I have that right." She snapped at him bitterly.
"Besides the only thing your here for is to break off the bet."
"That's right." Grim answered her.
"What if I said no? Your the one that had us killed remember?" Then she stopped for a minute then continued..."The least I can do is to put you threw the same kind of Hell that I am going threw right now."
"Penelope that enough!" Grim yelled at her, "I had a good reason."
"Just because I killed people." Penelope did murder people for her advantages, world domination whenever somebody got her way, any reason at all basically.
"That's Right... The only things in this world that you loved were world domination and David."
"That's the reason!" Now she's mad..."You couldn't have at least waited until after the baby was born"
She slapped him down his bones was now on the ground, he magically pulled himself together.
"What baby are you talking about?" He was now confused.
"I was with child." You could only hear a mix of sadness, and anger in her voice.
"You what?" He was in state of disbelief.
"You heard me!" She sounded upset, there was nothing but sadness in her voice, but yet no tears, then again Penelope never cried, she was too strong to.
"Why didn't you say anything!" He outraged he would think if Queen Penelope was with child she would have made it public knowledge, or at least tell him.
'Dose David even know?' That was his thought aright now.
"Because if anybody knew they could of use it against me."
"How?"
"Think about it...both me and David had people against us if they knew about the child-" She shook her head.
"Okay, maybe we can do something about this, you can be reborn." If his boss found out about the baby it could mean his job.
"Any other options?" What she choice did she have it was either that or hell.
"You have to be reborn," He stop in his sentence, "I owe it for killing the baby"
Grim felt bad about what he had done, he really did he cared about Penelope and David but...she was killing people what else could have been done?
She nodded at this, "And David?" That was her other question, she rather face hell than not be with David, although she swore never to love again.
"Okay, I'll do two favors, first I'll let you and David be reborn second we wont break the bet for your next life, but you won't own me until a specific age or remember any of this in your next life. Got it?"
'That's what he thinks.' Penelope thought to herself.
"Fine." That's all she said.
"We'll start over...your new name will be."
"Amanda, Mandy for short." That's what Penelope was going to name the baby if the baby was going to be a girl.
"Okay...David's new name will be William Billy for short."
"Fine." She rolled back her eyes.
"Besides this is the only way to save the baby."
"What do you mean?" She asked him.
"When you reach a certain age you'll be pregnant again and your baby will live."
She only looked down and noded.
(End of flashback.)
"There's no way they can remember, no possible way." Then again Mandy has done things that defy explanation.
Thirteen day later...
Their Billy and Mandy have reached their decision.
"Have you two reached your decision?" The voice asked.
Mandy looked at Billy who had nervous look on his face.
"Yes we have." Mandy replied.
"Mandy we don't have to!"
