A/N: I hope you enjoy this fic. This was probably published with one or two more chapters, but there'll be more to come. Oh, and when I say "daemon", I mean like from His Dark Materials. Not "demon". I don't have a key for that on my computer, nor do I want to do the work required to fix it. Just wanted to be clear. And away we go!

They stood in a circle, with a breeze that seemed to come out of nowhere (and probably did). As Stan begrudgingly held hands with Ford, he pointed to the two of them with their linked hands. "Between the two of us, I'm not always the bad twin."

And that was it.

A simple changing of phrases.

That was all it took to change the course of the universe forever.

As they stood holding hands, the wind picked up. It was slow at first, but speeded up over a few seconds. A few seconds after that, Bill appeared. And he looked about as terrified as anyone rightly expected him to be. "Hahaha, that was so eas- WHAT?! HOW?! YOU SHOULDN'T-COULDN'T- NO!" Immediately, he tried to force them apart with his magic. They held tight- and even then, it felt as though their hands were stuck together with superglue. After that, Bill started trying to talk them out. "I'll give you anything!" Stan replied, "What, like safety and food for us and our families in your insane quest for the apocalypse? 'Cause I don't think you'd accept, even if I've not seen a bit of your cartoonish villainy."

With that, Bill knew that he may as well accept it. But he still tried to run away. At that point, the Zodiac's hands felt like they were charged with static electricity, and the feeling was quickly spreading throughout their whole bodies. After a few more seconds, it was a painful burning sensation. As they fell into unconsciousness from the pain, the last thing they heard was Bill dying a (hopefully, for them) painful death. Like he should.

And they smirked, knowing justice was served.

A/N: I hope that wasn't too bad. Also, I hope that no one was too OOC (or OOC at all), in this chapter or future chapters. I've also got to give credit to the authors of the Zodiac 10 AU and the Zodiac trilogy- I was inspired by them to write this.
