Author's Note: I'm changing Xen's color to gray instead of red. So that is all. See ya!
Charoite: Let's just say the split personas are featured in this one, and when in full cooperation makes Bill Cipher (Bill is what they call themselves when they're together. Why? Because it was their original name.). By the way, the italicized words means Will is talking, italicized bold and underlined is Keno, italicized and underlined is Xen, and italicized and bold is Samuel. Words in parentheses are the thoughts of Bill Cipher.

Shattered: Chapter 2, Forgotten Beginnings
It is the 1st day of Weirdmageddon, and the spiders were scared. Quincy and I looked at the sky as fear was imminent on their faces. Oh no, it started, were too late. The others were crawling around the cavern; it looked like the black abyss. I guess we really can't save him… No, I said to myself and proceeded with the plan. "Hey guys! The sooner we get this done, the sooner we'll have our Bill back and the sooner this apocalypse ends, who's with me!?" I shouted as the tsunami of spiders cheered back and gave me my green backpack filled with pastries and other survival equipment. Then, as me and Quincy were leaving, the entrance caved in. Thankfully, nobody was hurt. However, there was a note on the new wall saying, "Sorry! I can't risk losing you here, just don't go out until the apocalypse ends (which will be soon…), just stay inside!" To hell with that idea! I am not about to sit here and let you d…d… die. I waved that idea away and told everybody to start mining out. It will take a REALLY long while.
Plays intro theme…
There's something more to this,
That we have missed.
Things around here are suspicious.
Who can we put our trust in?
What have they all been hiding?
Secrets that lie in shadow…
How much do they all know?!
A place so full of mystery,
Is just a puzzle a puzzle to be solved!
It is the last day of Weirdmageddon…
Bill finally went inside Stan's mind.
"Oh I'm here, I'm finally here!" Bill said rather surprised. "Look at this place! What a calm and orderly boy… Got too hand it to you Ford, you really know how to clear your-" and was cut off when he saw STANLEY playing with a paddleball. (Hmmm, a paddleball, wonder if I can- NO! NO! NO! Three voices simultaneously shouted)
Bill realized it was a trap as Stanley explained. "WHAT!? The deal's off!" he screamed as the door behind him closed shut. Fish. "WHAT THE?! Oh no no NO NO NO NO!" Bill said as blue fire engulfed the room. (WILL, DOES IT HAVE TO BE FIRE?!) Stanley proceeded to explain that they used the memory eraser. "LET ME OUT OF HERE! LET ME OUT!"he screamed as his magic didn't work. (WHAT HAPPENED?! I'm putting an end to this now, I CAN'T TAKE IT! WILL! DON'T DO THIS! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO DO THIS?! JUST LET US USE OUR POWER! Well, because it is the right thing to do. BUT STILL! DON'T YOU KNOW THE CONSEQUENCES FOR THIS?! HE'LL KNOW WHERE WE ARE, HE'LL LITERALLY DESTROY EVERYTHING! I don't know who the insane one is anymore. Well, I guess I'm weirdness, insanity and dark humor, and you on the other hand have an optimistic and humorous yet suicidal personality. But, I just have a question… WHY FIRE OUT OF ALL THINGS?! YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED WITH US AND FIRE! IT'S ONE OF THE REASONS WHY WE'RE LIKE THIS!) Stanley didn't know what was happening, the triangle shifted from a red form, to a light yellow, then a gray, then light yellow again, then a pink one, then finally the light yellow one. Wait, is the triangle pushing himself into the flames?! (WILL! You can't be serious can you? Oh FISH, YOU'RE SERIOUS AREN'T YOU? WILL! DON'T DO THIS! WE CAN FULFILL THE PROPHECY! WE'LL JUST LET THEM DO IT INSTEAD OF US! JUST DON'T-) The triangle apparently fought himself and went towards the flames, becoming a dark gray one just before he split into 4 pieces, one gray, one red, one pink, and one yellow. The pieces then shattered and seemed to escape Stan's mind. A second after Stanford shot Stanley; the pieces recreated themselves into what seems to be apparitions of a light yellow blue eyed triangle, a red triangle, a gray triangle, and a pink triangle with a green eye.
Dipper POV:
WHAT?! THERE ARE FOUR DEMONS!? I saw 4 ghostly triangles, and so did Mabel and great-uncle Ford, at least I know I'm not hallucinating. "WHAT THE HECK DID YOU DO?! YOU LITERALLY JUST GOT US KILLED!" the red triangle said. "Now now , Samuel, there is no need to be mad, JUST AT THE FACT THAT WILL MADE US KILL OURSELVES!" The gray one said. Oh, so the red one is Samuel. "I COMPLETELY agree with you Xen and Samuel, however there is more important business than this… Like honing your own skills." the pink triangle then made a paddleball appear in his hand and began to play with it as the gray and red triangles just bore faces of unamusement. "Seriously Keno? Why must you do this?" Samuel asked the pink one. "Because of how ironic it is." Keno replied while continuing his paddleball game. Then, I had about enough of this, this was getting nowhere. "Umm, hello triangles? Earth to geometrical figures? I've got a question for the four of you, WHO ARE YOU GUYS!? WHAT HAPPENED TO BILL?!" I shouted at them. Then the four triangles noticed me and stopped. The light yellow one which I think is Will answered, "Um, we ARE Bill. Well, not exactly, more like his split personas, well more like his sides because there is no main persona and Xen over there is more like a different demon."
Wait what? I don't get it. What ARE they? Are they ghosts? Are they other demons? "Basically it means that Xen was a different guy before… Well I won't tell you just yet. Maybe next time, and to answer your question, like Will said, were personas and we kind of are ghosts, we don't have much time left anyways, we're already dead." The triangles were beginning to fade away… Wait, he/they can read my mind? "Of course we can Pine Tree, just because were personas doesn't mean we don't have our powers. Personas can sometimes be sentient, like the three of us, me, Will, and Samuel. Xen was someone else before." I guess that explains it.
Then great-uncle ford said, "Don't play with us Cipher, I know who you REALLY are!" "Oh right, you mean Will here? Yeah, you DO know you were talking to him right? I'm pretty sure you would remember the COUNTLESS amount of times he would ask if demons could just straight out die in the Mindscape, asking where the knives are, where the rope or paddleballs are placed, and tried to KILL himself with A CHESS KNIGHT HOLDING A LANCE every time you turned your back while playing chess? He might pretend that it was a joke or something, but do you REALLY think he was faking it?" Well, I guess that explains Will's attitude as I looked from the corner of my eye seeing Will hanging by his feet from a paddleball. "Well, it's not like it matters anyway… If you would like us to buy your world some time from an impending demise then you better step back and DO NOT touch us." Then the four triangles formed a round square and held hands as they chanted strange words as a blue portal like object appeared below them as they seemed to fade away. Suddenly, we all heard a loud noise. BANG! It sounded like it came from the roof. Then, the wall behind what would have been the throne cracked and made a hole big enough for a face to fit in at the top area. Then, Mabel and I screamed as we saw an anthropomorphic spider's face in it. The spider said, "HERE'S CATHY!" I looked at the triangles' faces and they somehow seemed rather surprised, depressed, annoyed, and happy at the same time.
Mabel asked, "WHO IS THAT?!" "NATALIE CATHERINE WEBB! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?!" Catherine then made the hole a little bigger and impressively crawled through now saw the spider's full height, she was just a little taller than Wendy, had dark purple skin, 4 red eyes on the left side of her face, dark periwinkle hair that was tied into a big braid, had bangs over where her other 4 eyes would apparently be, a lavender blouse and a dark blue skirt. There was also a, spider with wings emitting a soft dark blue glow? Maybe it's a fairy though. "SWEETIE! I MISSED YOU!" she yelled with tears as she raced to the triangles that were slowly being sucked in the portal that they made. "NO! DON'T GO NEAR US! I'M SERIOUS!" But she ignored that and went to hug Will. "No, Cathy DON-"but Will didn't move quickly enough as she latched on to the fading triangle. Time seemed to stop, a bang was heard, the portal quickly disappeared, and we were all pushed to the floor. "What was that?" Stanford asked. "We were trying to use ourselves as a temporary barrier for… I won't tell you but basically we were making ourselves a shield although the process would kill us, AND THEN IT GOT RUINED BY CATHY OVER THERE!" "Mission somewhat accomplished! YES!" Catherine shouted. "Wait, you KNEW what we were trying to do?!" "Yes I did. I know you'll ask why, so I'll tell you. It's because there might be another way! Maybe, just MAYBE, we can beat him. You guys don't have to be alone with nobody but yourselves anymore." Catherine replied. "Not to be rude but, this is by far the WORST idea I've ever heard, and I've heard MANY bad ideas." "It doesn't matter anyway. We WERE supposed to just simply die, but demons have the tendency to simply become an orb instead of that when someone cares enough to be there. So that means we'll just turn into a ball." "I would prefer being six feet under the ground than this though." "Though, I guess we have a request for you Cathy." Will then whispered to Catherine about something. Then the world shook as the triangles performed an incantation that gave us new memories, things that didn't happen as great uncle Ford, Mabel, and my head began throbbing with pain. "Just to keep you from trying to find us, were giving you new memories." The triangles then hugged Catherine with tears as they held hands and turned into a prism. But then it shattered into 8 different pieces. In a flash, the shards disappeared. Cathy then wiped her tears and swiftly grabbed the memory eraser. Oh no. "Well, I guess I will have to find those one by one. You three on the other hand are going to forget meeting me and Bill's personas. See ya." Cathy told us as she pulled the trigger.
What happened? Oh right, Ford shot Stanley with the mind erasing gun.
1 year later during summer…
Mabel POV:
WERE GOING TO STAY AT GRAVITY FALLS! Our parents decided that we should move there to meet our old friends; and also because the school there was pretty nice. I feel like I'm going to meet the person who was baking us all those pastries there too! The next day we arrived at Piedmont, we received a basket full of cookies and tarts on our doorstep, and they're actually pretty good! Although the cookies labeled 'Dipper' tasted horrible, so I gave my bro some of mine instead. This went on once a month as my cookies tasted better each time, while Dippers tasted worse and worse. Recently, he said this time they tasted like smile dip dipped in bad medicine, bitter fruit, and dirty underwear juice! Hopefully we'll meet whoever made them so that I could thank them and tell them to make better cookies.
Author's Note: So Catherine is taking out her frustration on Dipper and the twins are coming back to the falls! See ya!
