My feet pounded against the red floors of Alpha's castle to meet with her and her supposed guests. I knew that there was no way another Grimm other than me would receive as much attention and that her hatred for the land walkers wouldn't bring one into our home.

My sharpened claws pressed against the doors opening them wide to accommodate my large frame only to be met with the disgusting display of land walkers. If it hadn't been for Alpha standing at the far end I would've leapt onto them tearing their flesh away. A low growl escaped my throat as I continued my tread to Alpha with the Taijitu hissing at any nearby land walkers that I got close to. It didn't take long for fear to fill the air as I took in a deep breath savoring the smell and turned to the culprits. One of them was a male with silver hair and the other green hair. I licked my lips in their direction feeling hunger rise once more had it not been snuffed by Alpha's impatient tapping.

I quickly made my way behind her to show the land walkers I'm willing to protect my Alpha no matter the cost and show my loyalty to her. "Now that we are all here we shall now continue." She held her hand up for me to lay my head on to which I did still keeping an eye on the land walkers.

A snort emitted in the room followed by a soft chuckle coming from a dark skinned male with fur over his lips, "this is who we've waited for, Queen Salem? A mindless Grimm?" He held a finger over his mouth to stifle more sounds.

It was tempting to physically remove the smile off his face but I held back to prove that I'm not like my other predecessors. Though I looked over at Alpha and growled out one word that caused the male's eyes to widen, "maim?"

Alpha only smirked and rubbed under my chin, "save that for the humans who will mistake you as mindless beasts." She dropped her hand and spoke up, "this one, as you can tell, is not like other ones. I've given it the strength and intellect to go past it's limit as Grimm to serve as a General for them. The only thing it needs more of is teaching. Which I'll pass the responsibility on Hazel and Wyatt. Once that's over, Cinder will use it as a personal guard to gain more experiences in battle. I expect to see growth in my General and if I don't see it then expect punishments."

Without giving them time to bring their own inputs, Alpha had already turned their backs on them showing they are dismissed. I stride over to the group of land walkers leaving not knowing who was Hazel and Watts and I doubt they'd give me clues. My vocabulary only limited me to maim, kill and serve but they didn't need to know that.

I regret letting my pride make my decision since it would have let me avoid many awkward situations. I managed to root out Cinder from the the since cinders are red and hot and one of the two females wore red. Finding the difference between Watts and Hazel were not since I assumed Hazel was a female name and thought Watts was the Death Stalker tail one. Though I wish I got paired with him instead of the real Watts who has done nothing more than complain believing that I hadn't understood a single thing. And... He was right when he used strange words I've never heard before but I'll remember when telling Alpha. I licked my lips in anticipation of her letting me rip out his scrawny throat.

I was brought out of my head when Watts snapped his fingers in front of me grabbing my attention, "now that you're not daydreaming of whatever the hell it is Grimm like I want you to recite what I say." He stood up straight with a smirk on his face, "idiot Grimm."

The walking bag of bones know I have a hard time saying more than one word but if he wishes for me to go for it I'll add my own touch. "Iwiott," it rolled out of my throat better than idiot Grimm and it's something I'm keen on saying now. (In case you don't get the joke it's combining idiot Watts)

The air smelled spicy from his anger- no- hatred filled the room, "I will not tolerate your games you beast. You either grovel by my feet like the dog you are or I'll beat you down."

Alpha would have ordered me to stop holding back my training but I enjoy the new smell in the air and craved for it just as much as fear. So I stood up and grumbled loud with confidence in my voice, "Iwiott."

I didn't have enough time to blink before a dagger was held a hairsbreadth away from my throat with Watts glaring at me with all the hate in the world. His arm was at an angle as if he threw something only to see the Taijitu biting down on the dagger. Luckily it spotted the weapon before I did otherwise I would've been groveling by his feet.

Hazel walked out from his spot and placed a hand on the scrawny one's shoulder, "using insults to teach it will get us nowhere. I will admit I was skeptical about a Grimm being smarter than the others but now that I've seen it with my own eyes I can now say it." He nudged Watts out of the way and stood in front of me with his arms crossed, "you better make it worth my time as well. You're supposed to help us achieve our goals so for now I'll teach you as much as I can in the amount of time we have."
