Ellie wakes up, the pains of the day before seemingly if by magic she walks over to the window looking out at the land it was rather fantastic within the morning, she begged her mind to try an figure out where they would go from woke up tired then stood up out of bed "Morning"
Ellie turned around shocked "Uh..f..ford what happened?" Ford furrowed his brows very confused "What?"
Ellie looked through her bag without any heist, grabbing out a small hand mirror and passing it to him"Look"
Ford's eyes widened "I'm young again" as he looked happily at his youthful self seemingly pleased at his appearance.
Ellie looked down at her own body seeing its youthfulness "The planet must be healing us on a molecular level"
Ford paused then looked at his biceps "Of course bill knew I was push over as a young adult"
"Muscles aren't everything, you still have that brain of yours to think a way out.I, on the other hand, have not got my sword anymore…"Ellie laughed
"He wants you to side quest to get it back" "Oh great.." Ellie huffed in anger, placing her nodded cape that was made from red velvet, leaving her to look much like character of red riding hood but her features still remaining as princess unobtainable "We have to get my sword back, I got it from a dear friend"
"We can't we just have to go without it" Ford retorted
"I know I'm just scared"Ellie lifting her hood over her head
"No need to be"
Ellie hugged ford out of nowhere, she felt at ease when he spoke to her "Thank you"
Ford hugged back surprised "Now let's get going"
"Lead onwards"
Ford led the way out of the inn, a started to walk along the path, as they hiked through the very much changed land from Ellie had rushed forward on the path to find a small town that had not been there before."T-this.. village is new.."
Ellie suddenly being struck with an intensive head..Something about this place was was, new, nothing rusting like everything else in that place had was stuck within the earth equivalent of the middle ages, the planet hadn't been able to , the inhabitants didn't know any of this so they went about their lives happily and to see a very modern town based upon gravity falls, smack dab in the middle of the woods was peculiar.
Ford looked around spotting signs with triangles on them ".. Bill. He was here."
"What is he?" Ellie asked holding a hand to her head a more severe migraine coming over her
"A..dream demon. Though sometimes I fear he is far more than he leads on to be...", Ford, keeping a close eye out for dodgy looking characters... But there was a lot of them to analyse.
"Then we must move q-quickly" The pain got worse transforming into a scream"Aaah.." as she fell backwards onto the ground.
Fords eyes widened and he rushed to Ellie "Are you ok ?!"
Bill was taking over her mind..looking through her thoughts and memories, he had more power within this realm "He's in my head"
Ford shook his head "You have to fight him!"
Bill chuckled inside Ellie's head appearing to her inside her mind " well well well well well well well! Twinkletoes we meet, at last, Ya know sixers has a crush on you ", he said then chuckled " oh-hahaha hahaha! priceless", he laughed
Ellie shook her head as breathed heavily getting up and trying to fight him off but it was no looked up at the mad Dorito "Why are you doing this?"
"Because I want OUT!", Bill suddenly shouted "And no one will stop me! So join my side! We could rule this universe! We could rule all of them! Money, fame, anything you and everything you ever desired! Ya just gotta shake my hand ", Bill said putting out his blue flaming hand
Ellie looked up at him smirking and then laughing like crazy "Like I would ever trust you.." thinking hard and managing to get him out of her head.
Ford furrows his brows " Ellie. Ellie! Snap out of it "
"Ford ford its ok it's me.." As Ellie held onto his hand, getting up and hugging him
Ford hugged her back quickly "What happened? Did he offer you a deal?"
"He did but like I wouldn't trust him, Ford, I know you and I trust your judgement..." as she pulled out of the hug, "He said you had a crush on me ha ridiculous right?"
Ford paused just staring at Ellie with a dark blush then he let out an awkward chuckle rubbing the back of his neck " I think I found a black smith's lets go ",
Ellie looked at him shocked knowing he always shoved things off when he was embarrassed "Wait do you really feel that way? Ford, why didn't you just tell me?"
Ford shook his head " because. Your. Your way out of my league, I mean look at me Ellie I'm hardly your type... Am I ?",
Ellie looked him up at him right into his eyes and took his hand in hers "You're exactly my type...as she said I had a crush on you too...well I mean I still do but I thought you just wanted to be friends"
Ford smiled, his eyes lighting up " I thought you had a thing for my brother?",
Ellie laughed loudly"Your brother seriously? He may look like you but he could never be you.."As she blushed badly "Looks aren't everything, I mean I love your personality..your. Kind, clever and generous.."
Ford chuckled " yeah I don't know what I was thinking... ", he said then he thought about his brother still annoyed at him "He was the one that pushed me into the portal. "
Ellie held his hand "I'm sorry that happened to you" as she began to cry a little "..maybe if I had stayed in touch we would have talked and we wouldn't be stuck in this damn demon filled universe..if I could go back again I would go to see you,"I mean you sent me postcards and letters I was too wrapped in my life to answer them or even come visit you in sorry.."
".. Well. We're still here and the past hasn't changed so in a scientific sense it would seem impossible that you ever did go to see me.", Ford sighed " what's done is done. At least well. We're together now.", Ford said then looked up at the sun seeing it was being blocked by a large pyramid in the distance
