Chapter Text
Everything was dark, as it always was, drifting through an endless void for what felt like centuries, he deserved it though, this was his divine punishment after the end and he would take it, as long as his brothers where safe up above he would take all the pain and loneliness even when it clawed ruthlessly at what was slept of his sanity
Then, all at once, he could see
A bright light blinding him, it almost felt as if the light itself washed something away, a distant memory long forgotten as his eyes adjusted to the world around him, where was he? Where are his brothers? They where supposed to make a world together wherent they?
He took a step forward only to tumble on the ground not used to the sudden weight shift- wait a minute-
Griz Turned his head eyes widening at the severe lack of the wings that rested on his back, his two pairs of dark wings and two pairs white wings where gone leaving one white wing left leaving it useless, if he looked closely he could almost see tearing wounds from where they should have been, at that moment he felt memories flood into his mind only for them to be ripped away as he shook his head
They where always like that, right? Yeah. Yeah ofcourse they where....
Griz stood up leaning on a tree to help him balance, he looked at his hand, it was translucent, his clothes where the same, the worn out but comfortable red hoodie (that was also translucent) hugged his body tightly, wasn't he supposed to be wearing something else when he was doing his godly duties?
Once he found a balance Griz carefully let go of the tree, he needed to find his brothers, he was sure they must he worried about him
So he walked, a small force guiding him as he watched the world around him go by only stopping to pick up a poppy (he remembered giving them to his friends when they where sad) or to pet a dog, days and nights passed, stars littered the sky as the moon rested high above the dessert
Griz felt as if he wasn't there, as if he was in a entirely different place and his body was moving on its own accord, but he found himself snapping out of that daze as he watched light shine brightly up ahead, they looked different from the sea of stars above him, thay feeling in his chest grew stronger, Griz could feel himself running his heart beating fast and excitement pumping throughout his body
He unconsciously unfurled his wing, he jumped slightly letting it flutter uselessly before he was reminded that he only had one
But that doesn't matter! He was close to where that stange feeling was! Was Condi here? Charlie? Maybe even Bizly??
He doesn't know, but he's really excited!
Once he was close enough he slowed down almost to a stop,
He didn't think it would be a good idea to give his friends a heart attack, he looked around, everything looked so cool! The buildings reached heights of mountains and there where these cool lights everywhere! Grizz probably would have explored more if he wasn't startled by a sudden voice behind him "oh! New friend!" He jumped
When he was done practically having a heart attack Grizz realized the familiar voice
He grinned as he turned seeing the familiar male infront of him, did he always have slime growing from his head??
Charlie walked over with Quackity following behind "new friend! New friend" Charlie said as he quickly dug a whole infront of Grizzly as he jumped inside "dap me up!" Charlie said, Before Quarter could let out an exasperated sigh and tell ghost what the slime meant he heard him chuckle, Grizz did it earning a happy noise from Charlie as he stepped out of the hole
Quackity raised a brow, how did he?-
"Slime! It's good to see you again! Have you seen Condi or Biz? I haven't seen them anywhere" Grizz said confusedly, Charlie tilted his head "who's Condi and Bizly?" He asked innocently
The ghost looked confused "our friend's? Remember? The diamonds? The logs??" Grizz said, Slime seemed to think for a moment before he simply shook his head "nope! Don't remember im just a simple pile of flesh and bones!" He said enthusiastically, Grizz looked more confused "what? Slime remember the apples?" Grizz asked
Before Charlie could respond Quackity had stepped in
"Woah woah wait a minute! Who even are you? And what are you even doing here?" Quackity said as he scanned the ghost eyeing his black and white wings thatvwhre on either side of him (it looked like he had two more that where ripped off his back)
"Oh- ummmmm, I was looking for my friends!" Grizz said simply as he watched Charlie wander around, Quackity hummed as a sudden thought crossed his mind "hey, how old are you?" He asked, Grizz thought for a moment mindlessly playing with the strings of his hoodie "i don't remember....i think a couple hundred years??" Grizz said trying to remember what happened prior to him waking up
But he just couldn't
Quackity looked stunned for a moment befpre he shook his head "right- so...i think your friends might have died or something" Quackity said, Grizz looked down "what? Nahhhhh Condi and Biz couldn't have!" Gruzz said as he waved his hand around
Quackity sighed as he rubbed the back of hisbehad "look man I'm pretty sure humans don't live for hundreds of years" Quackity said, Grizz turned to Charlie "but he's alive still! So they must be alive somewhere" Grizz said, Quackity sighed "well he's slime-" "hey! Im all just meat and bones!" Charlie cut Quackity off, Grizz just fooated there for a moment, no,no,no they couldn't have died from old age, they would have to revoke there God status, and even then they should have lived to 100 years atleast!
"Okay look, Slime seems to like you and you seem like your confused, I'll tell you what, you can stay here as long as you make sure to call me if this weird guy with brown hair, a beany and some glasses would come in alright?" Quackity offered, Grizz looked around seemingly forgetting the idea that his friends would have died to old age and the sting that came with thinking they had left without him
"Alright sure!" Grizz said happily, Quackity grinned "well then welcome to Las Nevadas- what was your name again?" Quackity asked as he cut himself off turning to Grizz "its Grizzly" Grizz said smilig softly
"WELCOME TO LAS NEVADAS GRIZZLY!"
