A/N: Alrighty guys, Halloween is coming up and honestly I just need to know this question: If you were sent to another world, what would you be?

A wizard, a knight, or a ninja?

WAY MORE A/Ns at the bottom!




PS: It was a BITCH to write how Rook talks 😓


Grim carefully hides in the bushes, silently glaring at his target in front of him, mindlessly wandering around, looking for any food it might spot on the ground. The target jumps around, seeing an opportunity to get whatever might appear out the ground, happily jumping at any opportunity to see a worm or bug on the ground. It looks around, seeing that its dedication provided was rewarded, seeing a worm wiggling across the ground, looking for soft soil to dig into to avoid the blaring rays of the sun. The target jumps up and lands near it, quickly pecking the worm with its beak, with the worm trying to wiggle out of its grasp in surprise, only to fail as the bird quickly swallows it, not knowing that it was being watched by blue eyes in the bushes.

"Hehe..." Grim quietly chuckles as he watches the bird take a moment to chew, or in this case swallow its food. "Now is my time to strike..." Grim carefully takes a step forward, pausing, trying not to alert the bird of his presence, and sighed in relief, seeing that its attention was focused on the ground instead, looking for any more worms or bugs it can find. Grim smirked as he carefully navigated his way out of the bushes, careful not to make a sound, and quietly walked to the bird, seeing that its attention was still focused on the ground. Once Grim got behind the bird, he raised his paw up, ready to strike it, and quickly swung it down, only for the bird to jump away in time for the paw to hit it. "Myah?!" Grim exclaims in shock as the bird lands a few feet away from him. "Grrr...." Grim growls as he chases after the bird, trying his best to swipe at the bird, only for the bird to jump away at every attempt. "Stop movin' and let me hit ya!" He exclaims in annoyance as the bird continues to dodge his every attempt. After a few minutes, Grim was panting, looking at the bird in front of him. "Just...let...me..." He tirelessly swiped his paw, only hitting the air as he looked at the bird a few feet in front of him. "Aw, forget it..." he huffs and sit down. The bird looked at him, seeing that he gave up his pursuit, and flew away, not really wanting to stay any longer. Grim looks at the bird flying away and groans. "Dang it...I thought I had him..."

"Hmmm...I see," a deep voice suddenly appears and Grim flinches, turning around to see green eyes looking at him through the bushes.

"MYAH?!" He exclaims in shock, seeing Rook standing up from the bushes with a smile. "Rook! Where ya come from?!"

"Why, I was simply sitting here, admiring your form!" He says in awe. "The determination was admirable, and the form was perfect! Merveilleux!" He happily exclaims.

Grim look at him in confusion. "Huh?"

"I couldn't help but watch your magnificent performance, Grim," he says with a smile. "Such beauty in the attempt, yet you failed gracefully as you chased your target. Truly a sight to see!"
