AN: Lets get this story started! A crazy roller coaster of Demons, twins, twists, and utter madness.
I have been writing and coming up with this idea for about a month, and I finally know where this story will be going, mostly(me being me, and having to know how the story goes before I start posting it). So there will hopefully be very little wait between each chapter. Hopefully, no promises though.
As the story moves along I will add more characters to the character list, because I don't want to spoil anything now do I. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Without anymore wait, hope you enjoy!
Darkness, that was all there was that surrounded him. His being felt all over the place, not collected in one spot, his mind was scrambled and he couldn't focus on a single thought. He just wanted to go back to not thinking, not feeling scattered in a million pieces. Then he remembered the Pine's trap and he himself somewhat being punched into oblivion. Bill just hoped that his plan to escape had worked.
With his conscience, Bill concentrated and pulled himself together. His mind came together first making it easier to restore the rest of himself. He felt himself come together like a puzzle, slowly piece by piece. His shape felt wrong though as it came together, it was too long and not very angular, not at all like a triangle.
Once his form had completely come together, Bill opened his eye to find that it was still dark and he couldn't distinguish anything. Bill willed there to be light and his whole being began to glow faintly. Bill could now see that he, in fact, wasn't at all the same three side shape he was. He could tell because he could actually see himself without a reflective surface. He was slightly surprised, but very interested to find that he was now more slender and snake like. Bill found that he had scales that were the same gold color as his previous self. He also found that he had talons instead of his usual skinny little hands and feet. Bill almost dared to say he was a dragon, or something of the like because he couldn't find wings, maybe a drake.
"Well this is interesting," Bill said to himself with a light chuckle as he examined his new found tail which had a white fluff of fur at the end of it. Bill felt around his face to find a snout full of long sharp teeth, two long white whiskers under his nostrils, long ears that laid back along his neck, fur that started at the top of his head and went down his neck, and two eyes. Even though he had two eyes, he found that the right eye was closed and wouldn't open. He didn't care much of it and went to examine his surroundings.
There wasn't much to see. He stood in a shabby old room with no windows and no doors. There was very little color, just dusty browns and dull grays. There were also small cracks in the floor and the walls, some of which had dark blue smoke seeping through them.
Bill was intrigued by the blue smoke and went to one of the cracks in the wall nearest to the floor. He studied it for a moment, then he stuck one of his talons into the crack, just to be thrown back into the opposite wall with a loud thud.
"Oww," Bill growled softly as he rubbed the back of his head. He looked back at the wall he had just slammed into and found that he had made a new web of cracks in it. He paused and blinked in confusion as he looked at his talons.
"How had I felt that?" he asked himself out loud, referring to the pain that pulsed through his head, making it ache. 'What is this place?' Bill thought to himself as he thought back to when the Pines had tried to rid him from their world.
The Pines had been able to trap him with no way out of Stan's mind, to be erased forever. But that was only partly true. With every trap there is almost always a backdoor. Bills backdoor and his plan to escape had been to scramble himself into the mindscape to come back together in the intermindscape where everyone's minds connected, and go from there. But that plan didn't seem to have worked, for, though at first glance he couldn't tell, he was still in Stanley Pines mind. Then the realization hit him like a ton of bricks.
He was still in Fez's mindscape, but he was in a mindtrap, a powerful spell that was able to capture demons like him and retain them with no hope of escape. The spell was able to lock away any demons powers, leaving them powerless and most of the time very weak. The mindtrap was a place where demons themselves can feel pain, a place that truly drives a demon to insanity. It was a spell that Bill had long forgotten about and had only once before been caught in. And since he hadn't accounted for it in his escape plan he was doomed to be trapped here for who knows how long, for he certainly didn't know.
"Very clever Sixer. First switching with your brother, then having him set this up," Bill growled softly to himself. "Only to make sure I stayed gone."
"Well, you got part of that right," said a gruff voice from behind Bill which made him jump slightly. His ears also shot straight up and towards the voice.
"STANLEY PINES!" Bill hissed loudly with anger as he whirled around to come face to face with the ghostly shape of Stan. Bill's ears laid back again and he struck at the ghostly form with his fangs, just to have Stan disappear. His snout crash into the wall that had been behind where Stan had been standing. He shook his head to try and shake off the pain that shot up his snout and through his teeth. Bill then turned around to find Stan leaning up against the wall studying Bill coolly. This made Bill's blood boil, he growled deeply and glared at Stan.
"Oh, calm down Bill," Stan said calmly.
"Don't tell me to calm down!" Bill snapped back sharply, his scales flashing an angry red color and his right eye shot open to show a white pupiled, glowing red eye. "Though this trap may be convenient to you, it has never been convenient for my kind."
There was a quite pause as Bill glared at Stan. Stan wanted to ask what he meant, but Bill had regained himself, his color changed back to its original gold color and his right eye closed again.
"What do you mean that I only 'got part of that right?'" Bill asked with irritation in his voice.
"Stanford didn't give me the spell personally," Stan said looking at Bill with slight uncertainty, "It was in his first journal. I thought that one day I might need it, so I memorized it. And what do you know, I did have to use it."
"That's almost the same thing, getting it from his journal," Bill hissed quietly, his scales flashing red again.
"Look, Bill, I know what this spell is usually used for," Stan sighed, ignoring Bill's comment, "and I don't intended to use it like that. I don't plan on harming you, I just am not that cruel. I defeated you once, there's no need to carry out your defeat farther."
Bill looked slightly shocked for a moment, but he regained his composure and continued to glare coldly at Stan, as if he didn't believe him. But he knew deep down that Stan was telling the truth.
"Here," Stan said as he snapped his fingers and a large mattress and chair appeared in two corners of the room. "Might as well make yourself comfortable, your going to be here awhile." And with that, Stan disappeared with a small puff of smoke.
Bill stared at the spot Stan had been, then made his way over to the chair, slumped into the fluffy frame, his mind was a mess. He was experiencing confusion and other weird emotions that he had never felt before. He ran his talons through the white fur at the end of his tail, and thought.
Stanley Pines sat on his bed in his room aboard the Stan O' War ll, looking at his hands as he thought.
'Should I really be keeping such a powerful demon in my mind? Even with his powers locked away, he can still be really tricky, and if he were ever to escape that would spell doom for all of us,' Stan thought as he rubbed his temples. 'Bill also didn't seem like himself, both in form and in personality. It makes sense though, being caught in that hellish trap.' He sighed.
He still hadn't told his brother Stanford about him setting the mindtrap and about actually catching the dream demon. He would know what to do about this situation, but Stan was being his usual stubborn self. He thought he could deal with it himself, but deep down he knew that he was wrong and something terrible would end up happening, as it always did.
He got up from off the bed and walked to the door, which he opened and walked out on the deck. Stanford was standing out on the deck close to the ship railing looked up at the stars. He turned towards Stan when he heard the door shut with a soft click. He look slightly concerned as he watched Stan walk across the deck towards him.
"Before you ask, I am just fine," Stan said as he leaned against the railing, looking out on the moonlit waves. Stan know that Ford had been wanting to ask that question for most of the day but Stan had avoided it. Ford said nothing as he also leaned on the railing to look out on the water.
"You have been quite most of the day, are you sure you're okay?" Ford asked after a long minute of silence.
Stan sighed before replying. "I have just been thinking about Mabel and Dipper," Stan wasn't telling a lie, he had been thinking about the kids. But right at the moment, they were not the ones on his mind.
"From what Dipper has been telling me on the radio, their school will be out in about two weeks. There parents plan on sending them down to Gravity Falls again for the summer. We will be able to see them then."
"That's great," Stan said with a slightly forced smile. There was another silent minute before Ford yawned.
"Well, I am off to bed," Ford said as he turned and made his way across the deck to where the bedrooms were held.
"Okay, see you in the morning," Stan said as he watched Ford disappear behind a door. Stan looked back out at the water, knowing very well that he wouldn't be getting much sleep tonight, or for a good long while.
What just happened? Why is Bill a dragon? Wait, Bill's trapped? Will he find a way out?
Well, you will have to find out next chapter.
I like the idea of leaving a coded message at the end, so here you go (it gives a hint to what will happen in the next chapter). :)
Please don't leave decoded message in comments, thanks.
