The Story of Madeline Grimm

The Grimm Reaper

For those of you who don't know who the Grimm Reaper is he is the Master of Death. He used to live in the underworld, a dimension that reflects our own, and yet is a horrible, cold, cruel and evil rendition of it. Its where peoples souls go after they die, in my world or this story at least. One day the Grimm Reaper made a mistake. A terrible very bad mistake. He felt an emotion. 
Love.
Against all rules of Reaper kind, emotion was absurd, impossible even. And that was only the beginning. After already crossing the line he did one thing that was totally out of nature for his people, and indeed banned him from being the Grim Reaper, and stripped him of all of his ability to travel to the underworld. Trapping him on the mortal realm.

It was time for the girl he loved to go. She was struck in a car accident. Wind knock out of her lungs and consciousness fading away. The Grim Reaper was shocked when being commanded of his duties and finding out who he had to drag down into the pit. In her last moments he held her hand with his cold bony fingers. He weeped, for what felt like eternity. But he rejoiced, for an idea had just struck his mind. He could spare her. Something against all rules laid out for him and yet he placed his hands on her forehead and whispered

"Wake"

Her Eyes Opened

And there from the asphalt road she rose against in front of all the onlookers with their cars and cell phones and all their frowny faces. There on that day of July 6th 1975 he held the girl in his arms and off he went. All the way home.

And to find his remarkable gift was taken from him, and so was she. The council of Reapers were ashamed of what he had become. And took everything away from him, and elected a new soul Reaper. But what Grimm didn't realise that his girlfriend bore a child. His child.
Half Reaper, Half Human.

And her name was Madeline Grimm
