Beat The Child CLRP

Of all the people in the cult he deemed worthy of his friendship, Grey was closest to Grimms. One fight left them both injured and telling stories of their adventures and numerous fights. They'd become close. Grey spent his free time talking to Grimms, laughing his ass off, smoking together, being bros.


That is until Jinx came along.


Jinx, Grimms' fellow snack and now boyfriend, was soon made the center of Grimms' attention. Grimms constantly cancelled plans between them. Grey didn't mind at first, the two having boyfriends of their own. It never did bother him, until now.

Grey had just gone through a breakup, a bad one. No one to turn to, except his best friend. Grimms was a person he knew would be there for him, someone that would try to make him laugh, someone that would make him feel better. He needed his bro.

Sitting on the edge of his bed, Grey stared at Grimms' contact information on his phone. "He would know what to do," he thought "he always does."

He dialed the number, voicemail.

Calling again, another voicemail

Texting him, "he would respond to this, he always does."

He went to sleep that night, believing his bro would come through. He had to. He always did. He closed his eyes, relieved to know that Grimms would be there for him

He would come to regret being that at peace.

2pm. His phone buzzed, waking him up.

sorry bro, hanging out with jinx last night.

you wanna meet up somewhere this weekend, just us?

I have plans with jinx this weekend, I can't sorry

next Wednesday? I have a day off.

Another plan with jinx, sorry again. was this important?

Nah bro, just miss hanging with you. Jinx is a lucky guy.

Ah okay, we'll make time one day, like old times, oop got to go, cya!

bye, Grimms.


He put down his phone. Jinx. It was always Jinx. He'd never noticed before but every plan he tried to make with Grimms he canceled on me, he was busy one day, Jinx the next. He was gonna find him, and he was gonna make him pay for taking away his best friend.


Grey trudged through the forest, knowing where Jinx could be. He kept tabs on all the snacks, he made it his job. Coming to a clearing he saw the boy, clutching his staff, two hellhounds at his side. Taking out dual guns, he pumped shots in the hounds as they leaped at him. The beasts hit the ground with a thump, twitching slightly before stilling. His eyes glowed blue, separating the clearing and putting it in its own dimension. The boy turned to the sound of the gunfire, ears twitching. Grey neared the snack, summoning a dagger.

"Hello Jinx" he greeted with a sneer "let's have a chat."
