"It's time to wake up"! "Bill says he has a surprise for us!" Bubbles Bianca. I groan and roll over, Bianca's bubbly attitude is way to much to cope with in the morning.

The tent we are sleeping in is hard and uncomfortable but I need the little sleep I can get, I stayed up all night training in case I get a mission. You only get missions if you are the strongest or most powerful pledge. I slowly stand up, making sure I don't bump the top of the tent with my head. I grab my duffle back and Quickly get dressed. I step out of the tent and blink at the brightness.

Liam is frying eggs over a fire and Cassidy is pouring coffee into small Styrofoam cups. I walk over to her and accept a cup. I breath in the smooth scent and look around the clearing.

There are about 6 girls and 6 guys. most are teens, around 12 to 17. All of us have the same tattoo on the inside of our wrists. A triangle with an eye surrounded by a circle with strange symbols. It is burned onto our flesh when we get chosen to work for Bill. It is slightly painful but it it quickly passes and the powers and the abilities of being immortal make up for it.

I exhale and blow my brown bangs out of my eyes. Suddenly there is a flash of yellow light. We all look at the spot where it happened and a silhouette of a man appears and gets more and more prominent until the light dims and a tall thin man around the age of 17, wearing a yellow vest, yellow pants, a black bow tie and a triangular eyepatch on his left eye stands up. He looks around the clearing until his eyes settle on me. I shift self-consciously as he continues to stare at me. "grace walker", he says, come here. The eye that's not covered by the eyepatch glitters like a snake about to make a kill. "Do you have your travel band?" "yes sir, I do." I reply.

A travel band is a yellow bracelet that can travel you anywhere in the multiverse. It is very rare and can only be used once before it burns up. "Set it for 128756 Bill says." I fiddle with the dial until I have entered the numbers he said. A glowing yellow ring appears on the ground. I glance at bill and he nods, I step into it, and let the yellow flames engulf me.

The feeling is not unpleasant but warm and comforting, but that may be because I, like a lot of other pledges, am immune to fire.

I open my eyes and see A clearing, just like the one we just left, only it has a small town about a half mile away. bill is sitting on a rock, his blond hair reflecting the sunlight. he is watching something in the distance.

A boy and a girl, both with brown hair and brown eyes, are playing catch with a football. The boy trips on a rock and drops the football on his face. The girl laughs and helps him up.

"Nice going bro bro, maybe you should try out for the NFL" she says teasingly.

"Hey at least I never got a rhinestone stuck in my eye for 12 hours", The boy says. "You are never going to let me live that down are you?!" the girl exclaims. "I was trying to bedazzle my face!" "I looked fabulous before it started to hurt!"

I look up at bill. He points at the girl. "Do you see the girl in the pink sweater and braces?", he asks. I nod. Her name is Mabel Pines, and that's her brother Dipper. "There is a prophecy that 10 people will join together and kill me", "but that's impossible! I blurt out. You're immortal!" He sighs. "Grace, its very possible. If all 10 of the people stay alive I will be dead in less that two months from now."

"Mabel is the weakest link and will be the easiest to kill if you can separate her from her friends and family, but I warn you, don't under estimate the Pines twins, they are quite creative..."

"I was defeated by them twice, both in ways I did not think possible."

"Now that I have a human form I can finally take over this small town and then bring my chaos WORLDWIDE! And if you succeed than I will give power that you cannot imagine." I though of all the times before I met Bill that I felt powerless. Being told my parents have been killed, being moved from foster home to foster home. Being beat up by bullies... "Will you kill her?" He asks. He extends his hand, which burst into blue flames. "Yes, I say." I swallow hard and put my hand in his, but I cant stop thinking about about the night I lost my family...
