After Dinner

Mandy told a demon to open a portal to the living world. He did as he was told. And the portal almost got Shadow blind again, But he took Mandys hand and they both jumped into it. And have arived in Billy's house.

"Mandy! Your back!" Billy squiled. He ran up to her and hugged her tight. Mandy threw him off her.

"It's been an hour..." She mumbled. "Grim, where's the party plans?"

"Oh oh! Grim threw em out after you guys left!" Grim waved his hands around behind Billy and shushing him, Mandy crossed her arms in anger. "Is this true Grim,..?" She asked in her low voice.

Grim had some tears in his eyes. "That deppends. Are you gonna kill me?" He asked worried.

"Mandy, I'm sure Grim could come up with some new plans." Shadow said,

Mandy didn't like being corrected by people. But she let this one slip.

"Yes, Yes I will! Tankyou Mr, Hedgehog!" Grim begged,

Shadow stamped his foot. "I told you to never call me Mr, hedgehog.." He growled.

"Pst!...Grim!...There's something weird about this guy!" Billy whistpered.

Grim got up and brushed the dirt off him.

"When's the party?" Shadow asked.

"Tonight at 7...IF, Grim gets it done.." She growled. Grim did a quick nod. Shadow felt a distance between these two 'friends'. "Grim, How about I give you a hand," Shadow said holding out his hand.

Grim had a hopefull look on his face, He grew a smile across his cheeks. "Thanks mon." He said. Mandy crossed her arms.

That idiot..

6:00 PM

Shadow and Grim were in the kitchen getting things ready while Mandy was in her room, Billy was upstairs with her, Shadow was making a cake and putting up streamers.

"Hey Shadow. If we're making the food and decorations, What's Billy doing?" He asked. Shadow shrugged and walked upstairs checking on the others. He opened the door and saw Billy running in circles around Mandy.

Shadow ran downstairs back to Grim and answered, "He's being stupid,"

"Hey mon, how about you take Mandy out again, We need more time. And send Irwin over for help." He ordered. Shadow nodded. And ran to the phone. He called Irwin.

"Pick up you swine.." Shadow said walking around anxious, Irwin finally picked up the phone,

"Irwin! Thankyou for picking up!" Shadow yelled.

"Who is this yo?" He asked.

"It's Shadow!" He shouted.

Irwin covered his ears. "Alright alright yo...Well what do you want?...GIRLFRIEND STEALER?" He yelled.

Shadow rolled his eyes deeply.

"I don't have time for this Irwin, I need you to come down here and help him prepare the party." He said.

"I'm not helping you. My order is to be bossed around by My true love Mandy." He said practically drooling on the phone. "Irwin. If you want Mandy to love you, you will come down here and help Grim!" He shouted. He threw the phone down and ran up to Mandy's room. Irwin got his coat and started running over to Mandy's

Shadow burst the door down at grabbed Mandy by the arm. "We gotta go." He said pulling her downstairs.

Mandy was able to slide her arm out of his grasp.

"Oh, and where are we going?" She asked crossing her arms.

Shadow bit his lower lip and looked around. He noticed a mexican statue on her dresser.

"We're going to a mexican resteraunt." Shadow covered quickly. Mandy felt her arm being tugged again by Shadow. He ran out the door but before giving the signal to Grim. Grim gave his a thumbs up and continued baking the cake. Billy slid down the stairs and did a flip at the end and jumped on Grims head.

"Where's Mandy going?" He asked.

Grim shook Billy off him.

"Mandy went out with Shadow again." He answered.

Billy lowered his head. "Gosh,..Mandy sure is spending alot of time with that Shadow guy.." He said whipping his eyes.

"What do you exspect, the guy likes everything about her.." He said iceing the cake. "And I think Mandy likes everything about him. They're not to different from each other." He said.

Billy nodded some. "Haven't we seen him before though?" He asked.

Grim shook his head and continued iceing the cake. Billy picked his nose and what was hiding inside. And jumped on the counter next to Grim.

"I think Shadow is taking Mandy away from us." Billy said.

Grim stopped iceing the cake. "I'm not sure about that Billy, and if he is, why should we care?" He asked.

Billy looked out his kitchen window. "Cause she's yours, and Me's friend." He answered.

Grim shook his head. "You need help boy."

Resteraunt.

Shadow pushed Mandy in the chair in front of the table. "Shadow, why are we eating again?" She asked.

Shadow jumped in his seat and started drinking so he cuoldn't answer...

Mandy shrugged and looked at her menu.

Shadow put down his glass cup and looked at her while she wasn't looking.

"What sounds good to you?" She asked. "The Seniour steaker, Or rib sunday?" She asked. Shadow noticed the food on the menu didn't sound anything the mexicans eat. Or something he would never eat, But he decided to order anyway.

"Um, lets get both." He said.

Back to Grims

The door was pushed opened by Irwin, he threw his coat on the ground and jumped to the ground on his knees and slid on the hard floor. "I'm here baby!" He screamed threw out the house. Billy started clapping. Grim looked disturbed. "What are you doing boy?" He asked.

Irwin looked around. "Where's ma lady?" He asked.

"Your 'lady' is out with Shadow." He answered taking a sip of his drink.

Irwin felt the heat go up in him, His face was turning red and his hands were curled up.

"Out...with...Shadow?" He screamed.

Grim pulled Billy down and ducked under the counter.

"Where are they?" He yelled.

"No time for that now Irwin, we gotta get the stuff ready for mandy's party." He said.

Irwin lowered his arms. "Okay.." He answered.

Irwin got his apron on and gloves on as well. And jumped on the counter. "What am I doing?" he asked. Grim and Billy got up and looked directly at him. "We need you to continue the decorations, Shadow couldn't finnish cause he had to take Mandy out." He said. Irwin felt the heatinside him. "They're out! On a d-d-date!" He cried.

Billy covered his ears and jumped off the table to the couch. He buried his face in. Irwin screamed to the top of his lungs that people in china could here. People at resteraunts.

Resteraunt.

"Did you hear something?" Shadow asked.

"No."

Mandy's house,

"Shut up boy! There's no time for this!" Grim yelled. He smacked Irwin across the face a couple times. "Your right guys..Sorry.." Irwin said whipping tears from his eyes.

"Now lets focus...What kinda decorations should we put up?" He asked.
"I think we should do a scarey feature. Mandy is scarey.." Billy said looking worried.

"Nah, She has pink everywhere in her room.."Grim said, quickly covering his mouth.

Billy fell over Irwin laughing his head off. "Pink..? What a sissy!" Billy laughed. He whipped the tears that came down from his eyes.

"Now lets get going...we only have an hour.." Grim growled.

Irwin and Billy did a quick salute and ran to their duties.
