"This is where you'll sleep" Duncan opened the door to Courtney's new room for a while. The room was black and purple everything! Courtney glowered at the room and back at Duncan, "Is there anything that's not black and depressing?"

Duncan smiled and looked around the room, "Sorry but my memebership to Frilly and ピンク was revoked three years ago. Just make this work for a while, princess". Courtney glared at Duncan, "I told あなた my name is Courtney! Not princess." Duncan tapped his finger on his chin thoughtfully, "Let's see you're uptight, like a princess. You're demanding, like a princess. Oh and you're a total bitch, like a princess. So yeah you're a princess".

Courtney turned around fiercly at Duncan, "My name is Courtney" she growled. Duncan put his hands up in surrendor, he watched as she browsed around the room from the ベッド to the closet. Duncan felt someone tap his leg and he looked down to see Death Mask and Trouble jabbing his leg. Duncan kicked both of them and they tumbled to the floor, "What do あなた guys want?" he asked.

Death Mask brushed the brimstone of his horns, "We were thinking master that あなた could um...invite the pretty girl to dinner. あなた know to get to know her better" he 発言しました sheepishly. Duncan glanced over at Courtney who was checking for dust in on the desk, Duncan whispered back down to the grimlins, "Fine. Tell her to meet me in one hour".

"Hey Princess, あなた will 登録する me for ディナー tonight, okay? Okay!" Duncan didn't even wait for her to say yes he just closed the door and locked it from the outside. He smirked when he heard her bang agaisn't the door, "Open this door! Duncan I am not kidding, and I'm not going to ディナー with you,ever!" she heard him laugh and walk away from the door.

Courtney slid down to the floor and covered her face with her hands. "How did this happen to me?" she asked herself, "I've got to get out of here and back to the real world" she mumbled. She got up and went over to the window and tried to open it, but it was locked and sealed tight. After a few failed attempts she gave up and collasped on the ベッド in tears.

After a while she heard someone unlock the door and their feet lightly pad the floor. Courtney glanced up and saw one of the cutest little er thing ever. It walked over to her and hopped on the ベッド sitting down a few feet from her. Courtney sat up and wiped her tears away, crossing her legs on the ベッド she cocked her head to the side. The little thing did the same, and she crawled over to Courtney and started to sniff her. "Um your cute but why are あなた sniffing me?" she asked.

The little thing gave her a sharp toothed smile and said, "Are あなた a real girl? あなた sure do smell like one". Courtney exmained the little girl thing, she was really short and had brown long fur. With big brown eyes, and paws with little claws on them. The best part about the little thing was the little ピンク bow in her hair.

"Yes. I'm a real girl, forced down here agaisn't my will. I'm Courtney and あなた are who and what?"

The little thing laughed and held out a paw for to shake Courtney's hand, "Nice to meet あなた Courtney, I'm Danielle a girl grimlin". Courtney shook her paw, "Are あなた like those other two horned things?" Courtney asked. Danielle laughed, "Yes but without the horns, pointed tail, and hairless skin. I'm the only girl grimlin here, but now that you're here!" Danielle hugged Courtney's waist.


Danielle let go and sat down によって Courtney's leg, "Are あなた here for master Duncan または mistress Gwen?" she asked. Courtney didn't know know who Gwen was so she 発言しました Duncan. "Oh master Duncan is...alright, I guess. I don't work with him much I work mostly with master Gwen. From what I heard master Duncan can be a real...."

"Asshole!" Courtney finished. Danielle's eyes widened at the use of language but they went back to their original state. "That wasn't the word I was looking for but yeah. So I hear he's asked あなた for dinner, I'm hear to help あなた get dressed and ready" Danielle hopped down and wobbled over to the black closet. She jumped up and used her teeth to open the doors, she went in and rumaged inside. "Thank あなた Danielle but I don't think I'll be joining that pig for any type of activites" Courtney sternly.

Danielle popped her head back out, "But あなた must! Master Duncan will be highly upset if あなた don't come and he'll probably come and drag あなた down his self anyway. Here this dress is the only one that's not black または purple". Danielled gave Courtney the blue dress with a small bow on the front. Courtney looked at the dress and sighed down at her, "I can't go Danielle he's just to rude and gross and annoying...and" she was looking into Danielle's sad large eyes.

"Please" she murmered.

Courtney opened her mouth but nothing came out, she sighed and gave her a small smile, "Okay. But only if あなた come too. I'm not sitting with that pig for a whole evening". Danielle squealed and helped Courtney undress and put the new dress on. While fixing the bow in the front Danielle noticed the black diamond ネックレス which was still glowing red. She grasped it in her small paw, "You're it aren't you?" she whispered. Courtney grabbed the ネックレス from her paw, "It was a birthday gift and a death present" she said. Danielle didn't say anything she just went back to fixing the bow.

"There all done" she 発言しました exactly when the other grimlin Trouble stuck his head in the door. "Uh master Duncan is awaiting you." Danielle jumped down from the dresser and wobbled towards the door. Trouble growled seductively at her as she walked by, "Hey Dani!"

Danielle just rolled her eyes and wobbled out the door, "Not on your life!"

Courtney smiled at the sight and followed them down out the room to the dining hall. There was a large 表, テーブル set up with mass amount of 食 and even lit candles. Duncan sat at the head with another girl dressed in all black with the exception of her slightly dark blue highlights. The other three grimlins were eating nearby at a smaller 表, テーブル that was closer to the ground. Courtney took a シート, 座席 across from the strange looking girl and she saw Danielle give her a small thumbs up.

"So あなた must be the new prisoner huh? I'm Gwen" the girl 発言しました eyeing her up and down. "Hi, I'm Courtney and for the record I'm nobody's prisoner" she 発言しました scrunching up her nose. Duncan chuckled from his seat, "Oh princess あなた are my little prisoner, whether あなた like it または not. あなた have to stay here until your family's debt is paid".

Courtney looked down at her lap and Gwen 発言しました quickly, "You'll still get to see あなた family again Courtney. あなた can go above ground in the daylight but あなた must be back down here before night falls または あなた will be forcibly sucked back down here anyway". Courtney gave Gwen a little small smile and picked at her 食 some.

"Courtney since あなた have to work off あなた family's debt あなた do have a job to do" Duncan 発言しました slyly. Courtney stopped eating for a moment and glared at him, "What kind of job?" she asked and that stupid smirk crept onto Duncan's face.

"Say hello to the new Judge of the Souls!"

"Okay I'm afraid to ask but what is the Judge of Souls do?" she asked. Gwen answered, "When people die they either go to Heaven または here, so there has to be someone who decides where they go. あなた will choose if they go 登録する the big party upstairs または this death hole, it's a pretty easy job".

"Oh and I have the perfect outfit for あなた princess" Duncan wiggled a eyebrow suggestivly at her. "Alright I just ロスト my appetite" she 発言しました pushing away her plate. Gwen stood up and started to walk for the large river of souls, "Danielle, Courtney, follow me there is something that needs to be taken care of". Danielle wobbled happily after Gwen and Courtney reluctantly followed.

The dead souls floated down moaning into the waterfall, Gwen got in and they all immediatly stopped to let her pass. She looked back at Danielle and Courtney who was still standing on the edge of the river. "What are あなた waiting for? Get in". Danielle shrugged and hopped dragging Courtney によって her finger and swam over to Gwen. Someone grabbed Courtney's ankle and tried to pull her back with them.

"Uh Gwen, help! These dead creeps are pulling me down!" もっと見る arms grabbed her legs and arm to drag her back down with them. Gwen just watched as Danielle tried to pull on her free arm. "Just relax and tell them to go away" Gwen shouted at her. But Courtney was panicking to much and soon she found herself submerged under water the dead souls pulling her deeper.

The last thing she saw was Duncan standing on the edge glaring at her, then it all went black.
