Restart: The Deal that Seemed Great

Good Cop Bad Cop

I was passing around the room mumbling gibberish to myself, my mind and thoughts going a million miles per hour. I jumped on my bed as I yelled into my pillow, "Hazel calm down it's not that bad." I hear Grim say

I glared at Grim with so much hatred. I grabbed it with my bare hands and moved it to my desk.

I pinned it down on the desk grabbing duct tape and a mechanical pencil. I tapped its Stubbs to the desk and one long tape across its body. "Now I'm not even going to give you the choice between good or bad cop."

I pulled the mechanical pencil and pointed it at its body holding the top of it ready to click it. "Now tell me, what did you do to my body," I said

Grim started to nervously laugh, "Oh you think this is funny?" I said clicking the pencil as it stabbed Grim.

"Ow," Grim yelled and started to struggle but to no effect. It looked  at me terrified  "Stop this cruel and unusual punishment."

I brought the pencil even closer to it, "Answer"

It looked away from my eyes as it whistled, "I might have sort of forgot that this would happen."

I was furious as I clicked the pencil again, "Stop it I'm talking I'm talking."

"Then talk," I said.

Grim was still avoiding my gaze, "I forgot to tell you if you had become too mad and frustrated it would trigger this power."

I brought the pencil up to its face, "And you never cared to warn me about this?"

"I told you I forgot," Grim exclaimed looking me with a serious face.

Click. "How do I fix it?" I threatened

"I'm not too sure how but there is someone that might know." My finger was itching to click the pencil again to stab this fur balls' eyes out. I inched the pencil closer to its eyes.

Grim closed his eyes trying to face away from the needle-like tip. "And and the only person that may know is a free spirit," it said quickly.

"Meaning?"

"No one really knows where she is or where she might be going," Grim said shaking.

I sighed as I fell to the floor, tears threatening to spill from my eyes. Grim got itself out of its restraints and hovered over my face with a worried expression.

"What is going to become of me?" I asked behind my hands that covered my face.

Grim landed on top of my hands and started to say, "Well worst case scenario you will have to abandon humanity and live as a wondering death wishes to anyone that comes in contact with you, and the second life I give you will he 100x worst than your original." in a know it all tone.

I threw my hands making Grim flung to my mirror in front of my desk. I glared at Grim as it slowly backed away from me. I sighed, "Meaning I will be stuck with you, and only you for the rest of this life."

Grim said under its breath, "Sounds like hell."

"I second that," I said as I grabbed Grim and rolled over cuddling up with it on the cold floor.

I quickly fell asleep as Grim didn't bother to resist me in any way, I guess it is the least it can do after getting me in such a mess.

I woke up to the smell of food. I rolled over but I heard mumbling and something moving under me, I opened my eyes and noticed something soft was poking my back.

I got up and saw Grim trying to catch its breath. "Omg you almost killed me. You should think about losing some of those pounds."

I slapped Grim as I got up from the floor glancing at the clock. I've been asleep all day. I went out of my room but I was shocked to see dad standing right there. I quickly ran back into my room and was about to close but he jammed his foot in the doorway.

"No dad please just leave me alone." I pleaded cause I still had such an unpredictable power right now. I can't risk it.

He wouldn't budge, "No, I will not until you tell me what has been going on with you lately."

I sighed knowing my dad that he will not give up on anything. I slowly let him in but made sure he was a distance away from me. I sat on my bed with my head facing down and my hands buried under the pillow with me, I don't know what to do. I just know I need to get away from everyone.

"Hazel, what is going on?" I heard dad say in a voice I haven't heard from him.

I turned my head and looked up at him with tears in my eyes.
