"Also, the dimension we're going to, H-12, makes people who conflict the most recently hateful towards each other,, and extremely prone to fighting, even if they've resolved it, so just watch it Magnus and Grimm," Azrael warned.

"I never said-" Magnus started, then shut himself up when Zo hit his arm.
"Right," she said. "Let's go then, I guess."

They waited until Lucien and Allison got there. They tooked a long time. Must be fucking, Azrael thought. "Hello," Allison said as she and Lucien walked in. It was 12:34 pm. "About damn time," Azrael said. She opened a portal to H-12. "Ready?" Everyone nodded. "Ok." They went through the portal. Grimm had thoughts of ripping Magnus apart, over and over, in creatively different ways, but didn't act on this urge for Zofia and her sake.

Magnus immediatly felt his hated for Grimm grow larger. Everytime he saw his face, he'd want to hit him, but held himself back. He just hoped he could for the rest of the trip.
"What do we do now?" Lucien asked. He didn't really hate anyone in the group, but he did feel a bit of discomfort between them.

"I dunno, find Welato," Azrael said, feeling the tension. Grimm agreed and said something that tipped Magnus over the edge, unknowingly.

"I- I can't- Sorry, Zofia," Magnus growled, as he shoved Grimm to the ground.
"Watch it!" Lucien yelled at Magnus, attempting to pull him back. Zofia only stood back, a hand over her mouth.

"Sorry, Zofia," Grimm remorsed at he got up, "So Magnus, you want some of this? Then come and get it!" He finished as he extended his hand out like he was summoning thors hammer. His scythe came to him. "You're making me look bad," Grimm noticed, "so if you wanna stop here, we can." But Magnus refused. And no one could stop them.

"Stop? Ha, you wish," Magnus yelled as he pulled a sword from under his robes.
"Where did that…" Lucien started. Come from? He finished in his head, still trying to gain control of Magnus.
"Please, Mag, no," Zofia cried, still not moving. Magnus ignored her and lunged at Grimm.

"I am Death," Grimm said as he dodged Magnus like Magnus was a joke. Grimm got behind Magnus and prepared to reap his soul.

He had success.

Zofia cried out and fell to her knees. Lucien simply stood there, looking at the place where he had been trying to restrain Magnus.
"Y-you didn't-" he stammered, and the discomfort he had felt before grew into a hatred, a rage. "Bring him back- bring him back right now or so god help me I will kill you even if you are death."
Zofia remained on the ground, sobbing. "Grimm," she cried. "Grimm, please…"

"I'm sorry, Zofia, I didn't want to," Grimm said as he put Magnus' soul back. The look in his eyes and tone of voice said spoke volumes. Do you still love me?, he said to Zofia via eyes. He put Magnus' soul back in his body. Magnus was furious, but not willing to fight.

I don't know. Zo only quickly looked at him. She didn't know if she could forgive him. It was true that Magnus and her had fought, but that didn't change the fact that he was one of her best friends.
Lucien pulled Magnus to his feet. "Are you okay?"
"What- what happened?" Magnus stammered, short of breath.
"He, uh, took your soul or something."
Magnus stayed silent, backing up from Grimm in fear.

"Don't mess with the reaper, man," Azrael said.
"I'm sorry, Zofia, I had to! It was the only defense I had!" Grimm said.

"I'm not the one to apologize to," Zo muttered, not meeting his eyes.
"I don't want pity or whatever," Magnus said defensivly.
"Fine. Let's go find Welota, then."

"I'm right here," Welato said. He was in his human form.
"Let's go kick his ass," Grimm said, extending his hand in forgiveness towards Magnus, "together."

While Magnus only nodded, Zofia took his hand. "Together," she agreed. She then pulled a dagger from her pockets with the other hand, Lucien gripped a sword, as did Magnus.
"If anything happens-" Zofia started.
"No." Lucien shook his head. "I won't let anything happen."

"Relax, i just want to talk to Grimm," Welato convinced.

"Bullshit! Thats a lie!" Azrael jumped to conclusions.

"Talk to all of us," Zofia demanded.

"I will, but i need to talk to Grimm and Grimm alone."
Grimm walked to where Welato and talked to him in whispers, in an alien language. The conversation can be roughed translated as such:
"Do you want to be loved?" Welato said first.
"Doesn't everybody?" Grimm asked.
"Yeah okay. Do you want lots of money? I know how much Stanley, ruler of Purgatory, pays you, and it's not enough…"
"I'm fine."
"How about your own universe?" I can do that…"
"I'M FINE!"
"You'll be back, I know it…"
Grimm walked away, crying, and in his mind, showing weakness. He needed a hug. The only 2 people to give him a hug was Azrael and Zofia, both there to provide the same thing (support), but for different reasons.
"What did you do?" Allison asked.
"I put some fucked up shit from his past back in his head," Welato explained, "and by association, made his mind weaker."

"That's messed up," commented Magnus.
"Why?" Zofia was still half-hugging Grimm. "Why would you do that?"

"Its my thing, lass," Welato said.
"Why did she have to die in my arms? Why did my step son die along with her?" Grimm cried, "What is life, if not death?"
