This fan fiction is inspired by Twisted Trans-Sister's fan fiction "Time and Again". Which is also a fan fiction for Bleedman's comic "Grim Tales From Down Below".

Please read it to understand the prologue more.

Some characters maybe mischaracterized in my story, but Bleedman does it so why can't I?

𓁹Prologue𓁹

"Walk through the doors of the Halls of illusions, visit yours, and see what could've and should've been real, but you had to fuck up the whole deal.."

Everybody knows the story of what happened in Halloween Town, there's absolutely no doubt of that...

It all started with a simple visit, The king of the underworld, the Grim Reaper decided to bring along his family to visit his brother, Jack Skellington.

The family consisted of his wife, the queen of the underworld, Mandy, and 'their' two children, Grim Junior and MiniMandy. It turned into a battle of survival with the bravest heroes of the underworld to save the town from a malicious monster..

Of course.. We could critique the names of the children later on, but right now we should go back to the topic..

The children were both the complete opposite from each other. Grim Junior was considered untalented, careless and a tad bit neglectful, however, his younger sister, MiniMandy, who we'll instead call 'Mini', was a star student, perfect and talented in every way. This made both siblings astray from each other.

This could be from the two having different fathers.. It would be an understatement if I just said that Mandy, the mother of the children was an unfaithful woman..

The identity of Junior's father is unknown. But Mini's father is quite easy to spot, and the main person this story is meant for.

Nergal Junior, the general of Grim's army, a famous former bounty hunter, and the son of Nergal. The way how Mini was conceived was rather.. Unpleasant..

He was intoxicated and an easy target to be taken advantage of, not to mention hurting his beloved before the incident.

Not to even mention, his own father constructed the horrific events that transpired.

Believing that his son's beloved was,

"Not a match for him,"

And

"Unworthy,"

He was never fond of the idea of his son going to college, it was even worse when at Grim and Mandy's wedding, Junior introduced Nergal to Jessica.

Jessica was a lovely girl that Junior met in his college, she was even his dorm room-mate.

She was gentle, compassionate and never fled when he showed his actual form instead the human body he possessed. Even with this in mind, it still didn't protect her from his father.

The thought of his son falling in love in a normal mortal human..made the demon sick. Even though he himself married Sis, a human woman.

When Grim stopped by Nergal's house to inform the scandal about Junior and Mandy, a sick disgusting perversion was spread on his face.

He always knew that Junior and Mandy would wind up together.. When the reaper left, he went looking for Jessica, to tell her what happened and how better off his son was with out her. But then he found her in the middle of taking her life when Junior didn't come back.

In a fit of rage, he locked Jessica in an oubliette, deep underground.

The poor girl passed away from hunger.. And with a broken heart.

Junior meanwhile, was tortured for his sins and crimes. Even though Mandy was sober, and he was not.

After Mini was born, Grim released him. Even if he was a 'free man', he looked at his own 'daughter' in regret and disgust..

He sadly never knew what or if Jessica was even alive...

"STOP! STOP, PLEASE STOP IT!"

Junior screamed as he stared at the mirror in front of his small form, that displayed his older self in the future.

Thirty five and Miserable

His dark tentacles instantly exposed themselves, before smashing the mirror in smithereens, he didn't care if his own body parts or the tentacles were bleeding or hurting from the shards of glass, he just wanted this thing gone. The lights in the halls darken even more before he heard foot steps.

He immediately ran out of the small building, before stopping in a secluded area of the carnival, the only thing that accompanied him was the slightly heavy snow that fell above his small form.

He couldn't believe it, this was supposed to be a fun field trip before winter break, not having his dreams and trust in people turn into dust..

He's only nine for crying out loud. he lifted up his glasses to allow his arm to wipe off his tears.

He felt like he was about to vomit on the white snow he stood on, after he wiped off his last few tears, he then put on his glasses back, looking up at the grey colored sky. Remembering how the young woman named Jessica looked when he saw the illusion.. She had long brown hair, the right side was slightly covering half of her face, brown eyes and desert tan skin.. Her face had a mixture of both round and sharp features.. In his eyes, she was absolutely beautiful.. But his future self just had to throw it away... He was also saddened by what is future job had to be.. Watching countless amounts of bloodshed, people dying and suffering, meanwhile forcing them to keep working..

He looked down at his watch,

2:01 P.M

Junior had to already be at the entrance of the carnival, some of his classmates must've already been waiting for the others to arrive so they could all enter into the school bus.

He softly sighed as he dragged himself to where his group of friends were waiting, Billy, Mandy and Irwin were.

While his cousin and Irwin rambled on and on about all the food they ate, he silently stared down at his black shoes as he gently gripped his red scarf, before Mandy could say anything, everyone immediately got on the bus, Junior was sitting next to Billy. He quietly seethed in rage and wrath, he was sure as hell he will do,

Something.

He'll just change
