Summary: Out of the ashes of two, a Grimm is born. But between two worlds, his heart is torn. Which life should he choose? For either way, he will lose.

Rating: PG-13

Pairing: Nick/Juliet (small amount), Nick/Renard, Monroe/Rosalee

Characters: Nick, Renard, Hank, Monroe, Rosalee, Juliette, Bud

Spoilers: Tag to “Leave it to Beavers” so if you haven’t seen the episode, consider yourself warned. I’ve changed the ending a bit as well so it’s also an AU.

Disclaimer: I do not own Grimm nor its characters; believe me, you'd be able to tell if I owned it or wrote for the show. ;-)

Author’s Note: While I was watching the fight scene at the end, I kept wishing that TPTB would injure Nick. I mean, I know he’s a Grimm and a supposedly bad-ass one but still, I find it hard to believe that he got through his first fight without a scratch. SO, I’m writing it where he did get hurt. :-D Gotta love a whumper, right?! Come on, you know you love my stories.. :-D

2: Also, I’m changing a bit of the fight scene so that it not only makes sense but works for my “nefarious” purposes. Hope you don’t mind too much. ;-)

 Part I

Summary: It’s been two weeks since Oleg attacked Nick and he thinks he’s ready to return to work. What happens when others don’t agree?

Spoiler: Tag to Game Ogre. This is an AU though since Juliette is not in the picture.

Characters: Nick, Renard, Hank

Pairing: Nick/Renard

Disclaimer: Believe me, I owned Grimm, you guys would know it by the increasing Nick whump. ;-)

Author’s Note The idea for this fic came to me as I was watching Game Ogre. I know there are a few “after Nick gets out of the hospital” fics out there but there aren’t any showing when he goes back to work so I thought I’d try to write a semi-plausible one. :-)

2: I apologize if anyone’s OOC, characterization isn’t necessarily my strong suit.

( Part VIII )

Part VI – A Prelude to a Talk

Summary: When the Reapers kidnap Nick, secrets are revealed and truths are learned. But will things between Nick and Renard be the same or will changes take place for the worse?

Spoilers: None really; set in an AU

Rating: PG-13; if there’s a stronger rating needed later, I’ll rate the chapter individually

Pairing:  Nick/Renard

Characters: Nick B., S. Renard, and Reapers

Disclaimer: Grimm is not mine and thus neither are the characters. I am merely borrowing, torturing a bit, playing with, and then returning them.

Warnings: The first part of this fic does contain violence and blood but I hope it’s not overly done.

Author’s Note: First of all I’d like to thank ThorneofAcre (or ToA to some) for being my sounding board and my willing beta. This fic wouldn’t make half as much sense without her.

Second: This is my first venture into the Grimm fandom so I hope that you al enjoy it. Reviews are always appreciated and welcomed.

Third: I borrowed the idea of Renard being a Regnant and what his creature form looked like from the fic, “This Isn’t All That You Are” by Macx. If you haven’t read it, you should; it’s fantastic!

Fourth: The title is (translated by Google Translate) “The Vengeance of the Dark Angel”.. just fyi.
