The Battle of the Shack
(Third person POV)
The werewolves came. About six of them scrawny while four were in decent health, but all looked ready to kill.
Especially the alpha. He was by far the biggest and the most powerful werewolf. He towered six feet above Felicia on his hind legs and had light red streaks through his black fur. He had many scars all over him and a slashed blind right eye. He stood up as the rest of his pack formed a half circle around the shack.
He tilted his head up when he saw Felicia was in the way. "Little girl," He growled in a deep voice. "Step out of the way. I have direct orders to take out the people in this Shack. You better get lost before you get caught in the crossfire." The wolves snarled and snapped at the air for emphasis.
Felicia narrowed her eyes dangerously, and bared her teeth. "You don't know who you're messing with doggie. You and your pack leave now or I'll have no choice but to tear you all up." She then revealed her cat ears and tail.
The Alpha laughed before addressing her again. "Ah, so you are the were-cat my master told me about! This is going to be easier than I thought-"
Suddenly, a golf ball hit him square on the head. The Alpha snarled and looked up to see Mabel throwing golf balls at several wolves. "Leave Felicia and us alone you big dummy!" She yelled.
Felicia smiled and turned back to the clearly irritated wolf. "I'll warn you one last time; Don't mess with me and my friends, or your gonna get clawed!" She yelled, unleashing her claws.
The Alpha growled again. "Attack!" He yelled. The surrounding wolves charged toward the Shack.
With a roar, Felicia turned into her hybrid form, her wings flying out behind her, and ran at the charging wolves, smacking the first ones into the ground, before changing her form into a Siberian tiger and taking on two wolves at once. She could feel the flabbergasted stares she was getting from the people above her bore into her back, but she didn't care.
She was doing this for them.
She noticed that the wolves tried to avoid her and head straight for the Shack, but they were not going to get past her.
Not on her watch.
Felicia leaped up and landed on the backs of the wolves, forcing them to collapse from her weigh, before morphing to a domestic cat and holding out her wings to dodge and block their snaps. Felicia twisted and turned, changed and morphed, slashed and tore. Felicia could hear the cheers from the people above her, and that gave her strength. She bit large chunks of fur off of the wolves and left deep scars in their skin. Her training served her well. The wolves not fighting back made it especially easy, which slightly concerned her; why weren't they trying to defend themselves? Within a minute, she had disabled most of the wolves, they were too badly damaged to move, (non were dead) and they lay panting and bloody on the ground. They had not even gotten close to getting into the Shack. There were only a couple left, including the Alpha. He snarled and signaled for the remaining of the wolves to surround Felicia. Felicia leaped in and took on all three wolves at once, but the wolves kept their distance, not daring to jump on her. While she was distracted, the Alpha revealed a contraption in his paw and started to sneak up on her. With a howl, he lunged.
"Felicia watch out!" Called Dipper from above, but before Felicia could react, he slapped the collar onto her neck. Felicia shrieked before falling limp; the collar had paralyzed her. The Alpha leaped back and the other wolves followed suit. "You are quite powerful were-cat, I'll give you that, but you are going to be given to our master now, and that collar will make sure you won't give us a fight." He nodded his head to the other three wolves and they started to head over to the Shack. Then he turned his attention back to Felicia.
"You have destroyed a great number of my pack, so even though my master will punish you well, I feel the need to teach you a lesson." With that, he lifted a giant paw to strike.
Suddenly, the Alpha was knocked over by a giant form, which was followed by loud roars. Felicia gasped.
"Multi-Bear!"
She called, never so happy to see her first friend. "What are you doing here?!" The great bear made his way toward her and broke the collar with a swift slash. "I heard the howl of the werewolves near my cave and overheard them talking about how they were going after a were-cat, so I came down as fast as I could!" Felicia smiled with her eyes. "Thanks Multi-Bear, you're a true friend." Though the collar was off now, Felicia still felt slightly numb, so she turned into her human form to clear her head. Multi-Bear noticed this and picked her up. The wolves who were trying to beak in whined and ran off when they saw Multi-Bear's massive form head toward them, knowing attacking him was hopeless with all those extra deadly limbs and heads. He then placed Felicia on the couch of the Shack porch, before turning his attention back toward the Alpha wolf, who just finished recovering from the previous blow.
"This is foolish. Leave now or die."
He told him.
The Alpha snarled. "You fool! You will pay for what you've done!"
He got down on all fours and charged, snarling.
"So be it."
Replied Multi-Bear, as his bear heads roared furiously.
The Alpha leaped at him, but before he could land a bite, Multi-Bear slammed him into the ground with a giant paw swipe. The blow broke the Wolf's neck, and he lay there, unmoving. Multi-Bear roared in triumph.
The gang ran out the the Shack, Soos and Wendy helping Felicia stay steady, while Dipper and Mabel gaped at the battle field. Felicia groaned and shook her head. "Thanks guys," she said, her numbing slowly starting to fade. Multi-Bear walked back up to them, all except Dipper and Felicia pulled away in fear. Multi-Bear looked concerned. "Are you alright?" He asked gently. "Yes, thank you for saving me." She replied with a smile. She then turned to the others. "Everyone, this is Multi-Bear. Don't worry he's a friend. I had been living with him for a while, he's a really sweet guy." Dipper stepped forth.
"I know Multi-Bear!"
Mabel turned to him. "You do? You never told me about him!" "Yea remember the time I was trying to prove my manliness? Well I actually ran into the woods where I meet Chutzpar the Manotaur, and after going through many trials, I was tasked to kill him by their leader in order to become a man. Well, it turns out Multi-Bear is a cool guy, and he knows Disco Girl just as well as me!" Multi-Bear and Dipper fist bumped. "Yea that was crazy wasn't it? I was ready to die, listening to my favorite song!" Added Multi-Bear, looking slightly embarrassed. Soos turned to Dipper. "Whoa dude you meet Manotaurs?! That's like, seriously awesome!" Wendy cut in. "You need to bring me on more of your adventures!"
Suddenly Mabel interrupted. "Wait hold on, we're forgetting the most important thing!" She turned to Felicia. "YOU'RE A WERE-CAT?! WITH WINGS!" Dipper's eyes lit up with excitement and snapped his fingers. "So that's how you knew so much about Gravity Falls, why you saved us from the Gremoblin attack, and why Waddles wasn't scared of you after you rescued us!"
Felicia flexed her exposed wings and nodded, head down. "Yes. This is what I was going to tell you before the attack. I am Felicia Eco Catus, a were-cat, the only one of my kind that can change my species form and has wings. I'm from another planet called Carnivora, where I live with my pride, the Felidea. I was stranded here during a hunting mission after the portal that brought me here closed. I have a family and others that probably miss me dearly, and I wished to return to them. I miss them all as well and, except for you all, they were all I had. I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner, I didn't know who to trust at the time."
She raised her head.
"That's why I'm going to confront Bill. I'm going to make a deal with him so he never bothers you again."
Dipper stepped up. "Felicia no! You can't trust Bill!" She sighed. "I know, and I won't, but I need to try. For you."
And with that, she morphed into her hybrid form and ran into the woods. "Wait Felicia!" Cried the twins and started to run after her, but Multi-Bear stopped them.
"Don't worry about Felicia, she knows what she's doing. You all go back inside, I'm going to clean up this mess and then go follow her to make sure she's safe."
They reluctantly nodded and headed back inside with Soos and Wendy. Dipper rushing to grab his journal and flipping through the pages, before remembering something and disappearing into the Shack.
Multi-Bear turned back into the direction Felicia ran and sighed.
"Don't do something foolish, Bill is not to be trusted."
Just as Multi-Bear was going to start cleaning, Stan drove back up in his now tomato-pasted car and looked around. "Hot Belgium Waffles! What the H happened here?!"
"Long story dude."

As Bill Cipher himself once said; "Turn away now before you see something you might regret!")
Desirable Property Deals
(Felicia's POV)
I ran to a secluded part of the woods, far away from the Shack. When I found a good place, I stood on my hind legs and called out for "Cipher".
"Cipher! I want to make a deal!"
Everything turned grey and instead of a Cycat or a floating triangle like I had expected, a tall human appeared, dressed in a yellow bricked tail coat, black gloves, black shoes, an eye patch over his left eye, and a black cane in his left hand. Floating top hat and bow tie were also present. He stood a head taller than me. His hair was unnaturally yellow and his single exposed eye was a bright gold. He smiled pearly-white sharp fangs.
"Oh you do, do you? Hello Felicia, Bill told me lots about you, but in reality you're even more beautiful than he could ever describe...~"
He leaning on his cane to get a closer look.
I stared at him with a expressionless face. Did... Did he think I was stupid enough to not see the resemblance?! AND WHAT DID HE JUST SAY?!
On the outside, I was perfectly calm.
Was I mad?
Absolutely.
But did I show it?
No.
But on the inside...
I was internally raging.
"You can drop the act Bill, I know it's you." I said, pointing a finger at him accusingly.
"Dipper and Mabel showed me the truth. And even if I didn't know, did you really think I was stupid enough not to put two and two together?! This is obviously a human version of your cat form! And never ever call me that!"
Bill's expression never changed, in fact he was smiling the whole time. His left hand was laying lazily on his cane while his right was holding up his head, which was slightly tilted.
"Aww, you're so cute when you get mad. And of course I knew you would figure it out, I know everything. Plus you're super smart, nothing gets past you in the end. And why wouldn't I call you beautiful? You prefer I use ravishing?~" His silky voice never missing a beat.
My eye and whiskers visibly twitched, as the hand I was pointing with started to fist up.
Cute?
Smart?
RAVISHING?!
Oh he was going to get it now.
Wait.
He was doing this on purpose.
I needed to be calm and collected, can't let him get to me.
"Enough flattery Cipher. I know who you really are now. You are a evil triangular dream demon, who wants to terrorize people's minds, kill innocent children, and bring darkness wherever you go!"
Bill dropped his head and chuckled, and when he looked up again, his eye was on blue fire.
"Oh I want many things my dear Felicia... Beneficial deals, ultimate power, total domination, to be real, the screams of my victims as I show them their worst fears, their cries of mercy as I toucher them mentally with my unholy darkness-" The fire died down. He cleared his throat and whispered so low I could barely hear him.
"...the secrets to your mind..."
I felt my fur spike up and I unsheathed my claws. "WHAT WAS THAT?!" I yelled, marching toward him, but his raised hand stopped me.
"You will find out soon enough. Now, what did you say you wanted?" His voice was full of arrogance.
I flared my nostrils but sheathed my claws. "I want you to leave me and my friends alone. I never want to see you again. You are evil and are not to be trusted." I then let my anger pour out at him. "I TRUSTED YOU! I THOUGHT YOU WERE MY FRIEND! YOU BETRAYED MY TRUST AND FOR THAT I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU! YOU TRIED TO TURN MY FRIENDS EVIL AND YOU SENT AN ARMY OF WEREWOLVES TO KILL THEM! YOU WERE NEVER MY FRIEND, YOU ARE A PSYCHOTIC , MANIPULATIVE DEMON AND I WANT YOU OUT OF MY LIFE!" I took in a deep breath.
"If you ever show your disgusting face to me and my friends, my REAL friends, again, I will end you, and that is a promise."
With that, I turned and stared to walk off. I heard his voice again, but instead of snide or cocky, his tone was... threatening.
"So... After everything we've been though, you would just leave me? After everything I've done to help you? You are a fool if you think you can turn your back to me. I'm not finished yet. Not even close. You might think you know everything, but you don't. You probably think you're courageous facing up to me don't you? But in reality, you have no idea what you're dealing with. You really think you can just say some words and expect that'll I'll go away? That you'll be free from me? But know this... You can't get away from me."
I kept on walking. I don't care what he says. I'm not going to turn back. I'm not going to stop. I'm not going to let him scare me. I'm not going to-
"Besides, I'm your only way to get home."
I stopped. "..."
"You care a lot for your family don't you? It would be a shame to let them suffer by not even being able to let them know you're alive..."
I turned back to him. His face was very stern, and he held himself up with seriousness. I pulled my lips back.
"And why should I trust you? After everything you've done?"
Bill shrugged, his prideful smirk reappearing. "I don't know, but if you ever want to get home, you're going to have to listen to my demands."
He snapped his fingers and a portal opened up before me. I gasped. I could see my parents! They looked like they were sleeping in the family den. I felt something overcome me, something overwhelming, as I was suddenly filled with panic of never being able to see them again. I called out to them, but for some reason they didn't respond. I ran to it, but a snap of Bill's fingers closed it right in front of me.
"No!" I yelled and slammed my paws into the ground.
"Uh uh uh! You can't just get it for free! All my deals have prices, even for sweet little kitties like you need to pay your end of the bargain~"
He had teleported behind me, eyes wide and waiting for an answer. I dug up some earth before standing up and glaring at him. I was trembling slightly, and no matter what I did, I couldn't stop feeling helpless and weak.
"What do I have that you could possibly want?" I asked.
He smiled widely, an all-knowing look creeping up his face. "Oh you don't need to worry, I only want a single drop of your sweet blood, is that too much to ask?~" He cooed. I stepped back. "My blood? What in Gravity Falls do you want my blood for?"
"Uh uh uh!" He said smirking and waving his finger in front of me. "No questions! Just a deal."
He held out his hand, which suddenly alighted in blue fire, but there was no heat coming from it. I flinched and looked into his eye, which was burning blue in anticipation.
I sighed.
I knew that he was could be lying like last time, but I felt like I had no other choice.
"If I give you a drop of my blood, will you promise you will get me home? And to leave my friends alone?"
His smile widened. "Of course my kitten.~"
"Don't call me that! I ain't no one's 'kitten'!" I spat.
Suddenly, he put down his hand and the fire went away, a frown forming on his smooth face. "Why? What's with you and sweet talk? You're hurting my heart." He put his hands over his chest and gave me a pouty look.
My eye and whiskers once again twitched, and my mind started to go frantic.
I don't have time for this!
I needed to see my family!
I extended a claw and poked his chest. "First of all, you don't have a heart, physically or mentally. Second, if you did have a heart, I would do much more than just simply 'hurt' your heart; I would crush it and tear it and burn it with fire until nothing was left except ashes! And then I would bury the ashes into the ground! Now let's just get this over with!"
Bill's smirk returned and he put his hand back out. "A girl after my own 'heart', I love it.~"
I snarled and, without thinking it over, grabbed his fire-covered hand and shook it, the fire running up my arm. When he let go, he looked at me expectingly, though I could see they were full of joy. That can't be good.
"Do you mind if I-"
"Yes, yes I do mind." I interrupted, stepping away from him so he couldn't touch me.
I then unsheathed another claw and punctured a small hole on my arm. A tiny drop of blood started to form. I then held it out to him. Without a sound, Bill bent his head, flicked out a black, snake-like tongue and licked it off, magically sealing the wound in return. He raised his head and silently smacked his lips, running his fingers over it.
"Mmm, delicious~"
I pulled away in disgust. "Ok that's nasty, even for a creepy demon..." I then wiped my arm on my fur. I felt like my senses were finally returning back to normal, since my conscious was sure I was going back home now. "Ok now please open a portal so I can go home and never see your face again."
When I looked up, I noticed something was horribly wrong; the grey scale was flashing between color and grey until the grey disappeared completely.
Bill stood there for a second before suddenly throwing his head back and laughing like a psychopath. "Oh Felicia, you crack me up!" He then stared at me, and to my horror, his eye was bright red.
"You are home. With me."
His voice sounded sinister, much more demon-like and... dangerous.
I backed away from him, tail thrashing. He... He played me!
My eyes slitted and I screamed, clutching my head and looking down at the ground. "You lied to me again! I knew you would! Arg, why did I listen to you?!" I panted.
Bill's smile widened. "Yes of course I lied! I'm wasn't ever going to let you leave cutie!" He then pointed his head down intimidatingly.
"Weak minds are always easy to manipulate."
My eyes suddenly widened as I slowly removed my hands in realization. I looked at him in the eye. "What did you do to me?"
He tilted his head innocently, but his eye gave away the hint of darkness. "Me? I did nothing but simply give you a little push. Your own mind was already becoming weak from homesickness, and it weakened the more I made you feel guilty about returning to your family. And once your mind became weak enough, I just reached in there and messed around a little to make you softer, more helpless, more... Vulnerable~." He laughed mockingly, the sound sending involuntary shivers up my spine. I stared at him in shock, not even sure if it was safe to think anymore. He stopped short suddenly, as if he remembered something.
"Oh, and thanks for helping me become real, so I can take over the universe now!"
I gasped, coming back to reality. "What? But I didn't-"
Suddenly, Bill shut his hand like a mouth and I became mute. I tried to talk, but no sound escaped. He smirked. "Just a single drop of blood from my imprinted gives me the power to become real, to exist in the physical realm. In time, I'll be able to do everything that I've done in the dreamscape, in real life. I'll be invincible and indestructible. But for now, I can only do basic stuff, like being able to walk, touch physical things, move small objects with my mind, summon small things..."
His eye held a dark gleam as he said his next line.
"...And taking what is rightfully mine.~"
My instincts kicked in and I turned to run, but his voice stopped me again.
"It is hopeless to run away, I control you now, you belong to me. No matter where you go, I will be right beside you every step you take."
I suddenly felt his breath on my neck. "Besides, don't tell me you're a fraidy cat now, just because I exposed a part of your mind. I thought you were a strong warrior Felidea!" I heard him chuckle mockingly.
"I guess you're more helpless and vulnerable than I had thought...~"
I snapped out of my shocked phase and lashed out behind me, but there was nothing there. I looked around frantically, hearing his demonic laugh again. He suddenly appeared a couple feet away, leaning on his cane and flexing his fingers. "If it soothes you so, I promise I'll give your voice back later, just hear me out first, ok?~"
I angrily turned back to him, and since I couldn't talk, I just mouthed: 'Stay the Heck away from me you monster, I belong to no one!'
Bill chuckled again, clearly amused, rubbing his fingers against his suit. "Felicia, do you know anything about demons?"
I just shot him an angry glare, but I was slightly curious; if he was going to stupidly reveal a weakness, I was all ears. He noticed my stern silence and hummed, summoning his trademark blue fire and playing with it in his fingers. He continued.
"Demons aren't born, demons don't die, demons can't eat, drink, or sleep, demons can't feel emotion. Demons, instead, have many other types of needs. I can not talk for every possible demon out there, but as a dream demon, I have many needs. I need to stop time if I want to talk to anyone, I need to haunt people's dreams, I need to make deals, I need to cause chaos, I need to be dangerous, selfish, and reckless. It's the reason I exist. It is what I do, who I am." He glanced at me through his fire. "However, there is one need that I have not had to satisfy because I never needed to. This need is like an wild animal trapped in a cage, a tiny flame in my soul, but it has been dormant since the time I've existed, asleep in a undisturbed rest. It was always there, but it wasn't important enough to be noticed.
Until now.
Until you walked into my all-knowing vision with your beautiful, gleaming gold aurora.
Now it is awake, it is clawing and tearing at its cage, trying to break out, a burning blaze of wild fire that will consume everything in its path.
It wants you.
I want you.
This desire I am craving is forbidden to me, but I will not stop until I have it in my grasp. My whole being is raging for this craving, this need, that I do not have." Bill Cipher suddenly jerked his head up, extinguishing the blue fire with a snap.
"But now, the time has come to quench the thirst of this raging, pulsing desire...~"
Hearing his last words, my heart stopped beating.
No.
He can't mean what I think he means.
There is no way that is what he means.
Something snapped inside of me, something I've never felt before, but unlike the first time, I was filled with rage and power. I mentally fought against the spell that kept me quiet and I succeeded. I roared.
"I'll show you who's the fraidy cat!"
I shook my head, my fury igniting, and lunged, swiping at him with my razor claws with a roar. I wanted to hurt him how he was going to hurt my friends.
Bill stood still, cane disappearing, and waited for the attacks. I didn't hesitate as I rained down on him with furious assaults. He embraced them all.
I tossed him around, ripped through his clothing, and left gigantic scars all over him. Just after a few minutes, he was bleeding heavily and had bruises everywhere. I didn't realize it at first, but I had also teared up his eye patch. He didn't stand a chance.
I pushed him to the ground, thinking he had gotten what he deserved. He lay sprawled on the floor of the earth. I huffed and looked down, almost feeling sorry for him, but quickly shook it off.
"Next time you think about being a lying, treacherous, back-stabbing, no good, stinking demon, think twice." With that I turned to leave.
Suddenly to my horrid surprise, I heard him laugh menacingly. "Aww, my little pet thinks she can intimidate and hurt the master, how adorable!~"
I whipped around and to my shock he was standing up, all of his scratches and bruises gone. The once covered eye was exposed, shining with colors I couldn't imagine, only leading into a big, dark, black hole in the middle. It seemed the whole universe was in that eye. It would sound amazing, but it frightened me greatly, making me regret slicing the eye patch. The only thing bleeding was his bottom lip. He reached up with his fingers and lightly touched it, bringing his hand back so he could examine the damage. He smiled and licked his dripping blood slowly, which caused my fur to fluff up in disgust. He chuckled, and stuck his head toward me.
"Is that all you got? I'm sure you more than that to give~"
I narrowed my eyes, getting on my fours and sprinted toward him again. This guy couldn't take a hint. This time, I was going in for the kill.
Jabs, slaps, punches, uppercuts, swipes, kicks, knees, elbows, scratches, tail whacks; He dodged them all. Expert hit after expert hit, and I couldn't touch him. He even managed to phase through my leaping kill bites. His cold, heartless, and mocking eyes stared into my soul, intent on finding something within me, probably a weakness. Though I was shocked and slightly unnerved, I didn't give up and kept on swiping. I wouldn't let him in though. I won't let him take over my mind, and I won't let him take me.
Suddenly, he surprised me with a feint to the right before he slipped around behind me. But (thanks to my cat reflexes) before he could attack, I twisted around and landed a heavy blow near his face. It was so hard, it twisted his neck in an angle where it would have snapped, but to my horror, it just turned back into place, as if it were never touched. I backed away shaking, for the first time ever actually fearing for my safety. This was not possible; anyone who would have taken that hit would have died. "How... How are you still alive?"
Bill snapped his fingers and his eye patch reformed. He tilted his head, flashing a sick smile, his voice dripping with venom.
"Pain is hilarious. Your resistance is quite amusing and its only making me want you more. So please, give me your all~"
By that type of voice I knew he was trying to bait me. I backed off quickly to be safe, feeling the sense of dread returning and my mouth once again becoming dry. 'This is so not happening, please tell me this isn't happening!' I thought to myself as I backed away.
Bill watched me with a hungry eye, his smile never leaving.
"You are trying to deny the truth, dear Felicia, but this truth can not be denied. Not by you or anyone." He started to stalk towards me.
"For centuries, I've been alone in the cold, empty darkness of space, waiting for a chance to rule what galaxies and dimensions have been bestowed upon my presence. And I admit, I was fine being alone, but I wasn't fully satisfied..."
His eye flashed, narrowing dangerously. He pulled his lips back into a partial snarl.
"Perhaps it was not intentional, but you've made me wait for my opportunity at total domination, of total control, and to claim my prize..."
His lips curled up.
"And I'm tired of waiting."
I snorted as my anger started to return, even after what had just happened. Who does he think he is? Treating me like some sort of victim! "B-back off!" I hissed, surprising myself by how much quieter and weaker I sounded. I stepped back and puffed up my fur when I saw him inch closer.
Bill noticed my discomfort and put his hands on his chest in mock hurt. "You're torturing me Felicia. Don't you know all I want is to be near you, to help you, to keep you safe, to love you?" I narrowed my eyes skeptically at him, wondering if he thought I was stupid or something.
He suddenly flashed his hand toward my forehead, but just before he was about to touch it, there was a blinding flash and a small crack. Bill pulled his hand back away from me with a hiss, as is something had burned him. He waved it in the air for a second, before turning his attention back to me. He smiled that venom filled smile again, a small chuckle escaping his lips.
"Despite your slowly weakening mind, you still remain strong enough to keep me from taking full control, still impossible to tame. You are too wild for your own good, my dear Felicia, It eventually get you killed... unless you learn to submit me."
I hissed threateningly, but quietly, do to the spell. "I will NEVER submit, especially not to a sick evil twisted demonic monster like you!" Bill simply let out a evil, unnerving laugh and disappeared.
"You have no idea what you're in for my sweet...~"
I looked around frantically for him, twisting my body around so I couldn't be exposed. I guess I didn't do a good enough job, because then next thing I knew, my face was in the ground.
He had pounced on me, knocking me down and pinning me to the ground with his legs in a stratal position. He squeezed as tight as a boa constrictor, and it was slightly hard to breath. I struggled under him, trying to free my arms from under him, but I couldn't throw him off. I struggled for another minute until I gave up, panting, too tired and out of breath to move anymore.
I suddenly felt his hands travel up my back, his fingers digging into my fur and getting tangled in it. I heard him hum as his fingers worked on my back, letting out small chuckles as he slowly pushed aside my hair-fur. I had to use all my will power to not purr from the massage I was receiving. Why was he doing this? Is this some form of torture? I then felt him lean down near my face, close to my ear, and he whispered,
"Well now, this seems familiar now doesn't it? Do you recall what happens next?"
It took me a couple seconds to remember and I gasped as realization dawned on me. His mouth suddenly dove for my nape, the same place he had bitten me when we were wrestling as cats, and I could feel his fangs pierce into my skin and inject a liquid substance. He growled loudly and aggressively against my skin, gripping the grass next to me on both sides and ripping them out of the ground.
'This is just what cats do when they mate!' I thought to myself, panicking slightly. He suddenly let go and vanished again. I snarled and got on my feet again, suddenly feeling much weaker. The poison must have already taken affect.
"Where are you you coward?! I though you were an all powerful demon! But you need to drug me to defeat me?" I snarled.
At the back of my mind a was yelling to myself, 'Are you crazy?! He could kill you!' But I ignored it, too angry to think clearly.
I heard his laugh in the air again as I tried to pinpoint his location. "Not quite my lovely~" I turned to see Bill, who was leaning lazily on a tree, playing with a big ball of blue fire in his hand.
"However, you seem to be forgetting who has the real power in these woods..."
Baring my teeth into a snarl, I made my way toward him, standing almost right in front of the fire and staring his straight in the eye.
"I'm not your anything you slithering demon. Is this some sort of game to you? Trying to see what makes me tick? What makes me feel weak enough to sob and cry and drop to my knees and beg for you mercy? HA. Well if you knew anything about me, its not gonna work, so you might as well just give up and leave me alone. You think I fear you? I don't care if you have unimaginable powers or whatever, I refuse to be harassed by you and your taunts!"
With a sigh, Bill pushed off the tree, extinguishing the fire, and putting his finger to his cheek to support holding up his face.
"My dear dear Felicia, there are so many things that you can not possibly understand about the way I work. You see, now matter how strong and confident you may sound, I know when someone has fear hiding in their heart. And though I might not be able to look into your mind, you are no exception. Spit all the insults and threats you would like, but I know that even you have limits to how far you can push yourself... before you break."
I didn't move from my spot and just stared at him defiantly, letting a hiss escape me before speaking. "For the last time you psychotic demon: I. AM. NOT. YOURS."
Suddenly he sprung at me, his tall form looming over me as he forced me to back up. His lips were parted in a arrogant smirk as he spoke.
"Oh, but you are mine. You are mine just as the universe is mine. And no matter what you do or say to prevent it, nothing will change that." He paused, chuckling at my startled reaction. "Life is a game, my dear, and you are a player with rest of the universe, whither you like it or not. Me on the other hand, I am the referee; I am in charge, I make the rules, I monitor the players, and I decide if the game is over."
He had finally stopped walking toward me and smirked, satisfied with the startled and shocked look on my face. He then turned his back to me, holding his cane behind him and curling his fingers tightly around the wood.
"And now, thanks to the poison that runs through your veins, you are also my puppet."
My eyes slitted and I unsheathed my claws. He was a fool if he thought this poison would stop me. But when I reached to slash him, he stopped it with a raised hand. I cried out in shock and panic. Half of my body suddenly felt paralyzed, like my blood was being controlled.*
Bill smirked, turning his head to face me. "You shouldn't attack me when my back is turned, that'll only get you into deeper trouble. I hear, see, and know all~" I tried to quickly strike with my other paw, but his other hand caught it. Now I felt like my entire body was stuck in hardened cement. He pushed down my frozen arms until they were at my sides, shoving his face closer with a victory smirk.
"Again, you underestimate my powers my pet...~" His look suddenly changed; narrowing his eyes and frowning. "...and you overestimate yours compared to mine."
I groaned and tried to move, but it was hopeless, the venom under his control was too strong. I widened my eyes as his new tone of voice, and I was truly frightened by the new look he was giving me. I've never seen him look... so angry before. Bill then stepped back and started to circle me like a wolf closing in on his prey, stroking my long tail as he passed. He flashed his sharp teeth with a tilted head.
"I admire your strength, your speed, your skill, your grace, your intelligence, your courage, and your determination, but it is nothing compared to what I can do. I could kill you with a flick of a hand, I could ignite you in fire with a blink of an eye. You have no power compared to me!"
He stalked up behind me and allowed his arms to slither over my stiff shoulders, hands lightly griping my neck.
My eyes widened and my breathing increased. I panicked; I was taught that constriction of the neck meant certain death.
Was he going to kill me?
To my surprise, I felt him massage it gently before lowering his arms lazily, hands brushing the surface of my furry chest. He leaned his face close and sighed lovingly.
"But I won't do that. You are too important and precious to me. You may be strong, but you are as delicate as a flower in my palm. You are very lucky I find you so... irresistible.~"
He suddenly rubbed his nose up my neck, letting out little purrs. I felt his lips gently kiss the spot where he nipped me, before gripping my shoulders tightly with his slick gloves fingers. He whispered with a lustful hiss. "Now, are you going to be a good little kitty and listen to your master?"
I let out a defeated sigh.
I'd had enough.
But I wasn't defeated.
'Perhaps if I tricked him into letting me go, I could strike him when wasn't expecting it!' In the back of my mind I knew it would never work, and though I would never admit it, I was at lost for hope with his newfound powers, he really did seem unbeatable.
Bill let out a pleased hum and stroked my chest and belly fur, which almost made me involuntarily purr. He breathed on my neck.
"Good, cause I wasn't quite finished yet.~"
I felt his sharp fangs graze the skin under my neck fur before he let go and vanished. He appeared again in front of me a couple paces away, and clicked his tongue.
Suddenly a wave of pain washed over me and I felt myself shrinking. I let out a silent scream and clutched my sides.
Bill was forcing me to morph into my human form!
Of course, just had to go and make me feel weaker than I already was. Typical males.
After I was done transforming, I breathed heavily, grabbing my chest for support as the pain eventually went away.
Bill's flashing golden eye looked into my brown-green cat eyes with want, and traveled downward to scan the rest of me, and back up again.
"To put it simply for your innocent mind Felicia,"
He advanced again with a dark, lustful gleam in his eye, and though I tried with all my might to pull away, I couldn't. His powers kept me still and frozen to the spot. His arms snaked around my waist, squeezing tightly, though there was no way I could resist him anyway, my hands felt like they were in unbreakable chains by my sides. He touched his head against mine, yellow hair brushing my face, lips breathing on my own.
"I've imprinted on you, and there's nothing me or you can do about it."
He nuzzled my cheek, and to my horrid surprise, he was purring with content, pleased and frighteningly giddy. To my disgust, I could smell his scent of arousal wafting from him in large quantities.
"Though if I could, I wouldn't do anything to change it anyway, you're perfect for me.
In every. Way. Possible."
He brought his head back to examine me again, seeing my mouth scar, and trailed it with his thumb, smirking wildly, before cranking his head down and butterfly kissing the corner right where the scar ended. He inhaled my scent as my eyes went wide with horror.
'Why me?' I thought to myself. 'Because,' I heard his thoughts in my head. 'You were the one made for me. Fate brought us together at last, and now, you belong to me and only me.'
'I'm not yours and I never will be! And fate did NOT bring us together! Just so you know, I will never give into you-' Bill suddenly thrust his face near my ear.
'And here's a little secret; you are the only one who can bare my children~'
I swallowed hard, true fear clutching my heart. 'You-you don't mean... Having s-' Bill pulled back, gripping me tighter, and spat on the ground in disgust, as if he was getting something gross out of his mouth.
'PAH! Not that revolting love-making ritual between two mating earth creatures! Just thinking about the possibility of such a thing makes me sick. I'll forgive you this one time for making that nasty assumption, but you shall not ever speak of it again.' He snarled. I was taken aback by his sudden change in attitude and his thoughts. I then let out a sigh of partial relief, thanking my ancestors that this was not what it was coming to. I guess we had more in common than I thought.
'No no, that is not the dream demon way~'
My relief evaporated as I remembered that I still wasn't in the clear. 'Wait then how-'
My thoughts were interrupted by a low growl, a gloved finger lifted to trail from my check down my neck to my collarbone. He traced it before speaking again in a quiet, but clearly excited whisper.
"You look and smell delicious, my dear, I must simply have another small taste~"
And with that, his lips crashed against mine, desperate and needy, as if he'd never get to do this again, when he fully planned on doing so. My eyes glossed over as I tried to pull away, to push, to shout, but any resistance was futile; I was completely at his mercy. His lips were warm, and they were very smooth, almost unnaturally smooth, as they moved against mine, fast at first, before he slowed down to start savoring. I felt Bill's hands move up my back, one of them trailing my spine while the other holding the back of my neck as he forcefully guided my mouth toward his.
He nipped my lower lip, sucking it gently and sending a shiver racing down my spine. It was an awful feeling. But then he slid his black forked tongue over my quivering lips, before allowing it to poke through, flickering it in and out teasingly before fully plunging into my mouth.
I tried my best to clench my teeth, but I felt them forcefully give way as his tongue slid in. It ran over everything, including my teeth, and it wrapped fully around my cat tongue, which was odd because it was barbed, so it should have hurt him. He then tried to pull my tongue into his own mouth. His aroused moans and predatory growls seemed to echo throughout the forest, the pure pleasure he was getting radiating off of him in waves as he sucked my tongue.
'I love you,' he whispered in my mind, his tone causing the hair at the back of my neck to rise.
'I've loved you since the moment I laid my eye on you.' His voice suddenly sounded dark and demanding. 'But you were always teasing me, hanging out with those Pines twins, tempting me, forcing me to surrender to your beauty and ferocity, making me crave the unholy fruit of passion.' He was growling now, but he never lost his calm, prideful arrogance or his gentle touch.
I heard his tone go back to normal until he was basically purring. 'Those Twins can't say or do anything to you now though. So why are you fighting me my beloved? Even though they fill your head with hopeful lies. Even though they can never give you what I can give you. You resist me. Even though, deep inside, you want this. Even though you and I are made for each other.'
The passion in Bill's voice and his husky growl was enough to short-circuit my brain and cause my arms to twitch uncontrollably. I was so shocked and overwhelmed with what he was doing that I didn't even bother to come up with a retort. I suddenly let out a muffled yelp as I felt my own hands lift up involuntarily; one wrapping about his neck and the other getting tangled in his soft yellow hair, brushing through it and making him moan and growl louder. I felt involuntary moans and shudders leave me as well, though if I wasn't forced to do this there is no way I would've. My heart instinctively beat fast in my rib cage, but, (unsurprisingly), I could not feel anything from Cipher, because like I said before; he didn't have a heart... Or blood for that matter. (So he doesn't blush or anything either.)
I felt him grin as he claimed my mouth, as he kissed more fiercely and passionately, pushing up against me, becoming more and more possessive.
When he finally pulled away (after what seemed like hours), his tongue was still partially in my mouth. He licked the outside of my lips until it was covered in his saliva before retracting it back into his mouth with a slurp.
I inwardly gagged and started spitting.
I felt like hacking a hundred hairballs.
WHAT THE HECK-A-HEDRON WAS THAT?!
Is this what humans or demons do before they mate?!
GOD was that disgusting!
I would never get that stuff out of my mouth, and I think I accidentally swallowed some!
GROSS!
Bill licked his lips, trying to savor the rest of the taste, his eye never leaving my face. He was smiling like a deadly Cheshire Cat. I quickly turned away from him, but then silently gasped at what I saw. I hadn't been paying attention, because suddenly, I saw and felt more 'things' caressing my body. I looked to see that Cipher had four shadow-like tentacles coming from his back that wrapped around me like huge snakes; One was around my legs, one was under my shirt, around my stomach, one was around my neck, and the last one was caressing my cheek. They felt shadowy, but I had a feeling they could become much tighter if Bill allowed them to. His normal hands had moved back down to my hips, pushing them closer to his own.
Bill, (who was clearly un-phased by anything that just happened), brushed my cheek with his nose. He shifted slightly, now pressing light kisses across my cheek until his lips brushed my human ear. His lips breathed warmly on my skin, tickling me deliciously, and his tone full on suductive as he whispered:
"You are so terrifyingly gorgeous. You are everything I ever wanted. You shine brighter than the night sky in my eyes. You are my other half, and I'll always have you by my side. As the future ruler of the universe, you get to be my queen, arn't you lucky?"
I held in my breath as he cooed the next line.
"Which means you can't keep me out of your mind forever.~"
He then moved to take my earlobe between his fangs, nipping and nibbling it ever so gently with his sharp, but careful teeth, tongue once again flicking in and out to lick the sensitive skin.
Suddenly, there was a loud roar that startled both of us. Bill jerked away with a snarl, holding me protectively in his grasp. I found I was able to move and talk again. "Multi-Bear!" I yelled, distracting Bill by using all my leftover strength to push him off and grab him in a choke hold.
With a quick movement, Multi-Bear grabbed him by his collar and flung him away from me. I flashed a smile, but it quickly disappeared when I realized how much danger he was in. "Thank you for saving me, but you need to get out of here, he's more powerful than ever before, and if you stay he'll kill you!"
"Right you are kitten." Came his sinister voice.
I gasped and looked up to see a flying, bright burning red Bill approaching the two of us. He turned to Multi-Bear.
"I should end your pathetic existence right now, but that would make my kitten miserable, so instead I'll do this." With a wave of his hand, Multi-Bear was struck by blue lightning and fell over, roaring in pain.
"No!" I screamed and ran toward him, but Bill landed behind me and pulled me back. "You are forbidden to help him. If you go near him, I'll kill him. Do you understand?"
I would have snapped and yelled back, but I decided to play smart. I wasn't going to risk my friend's life over some irrationality. Breathing deeply, I nodded my head in defeat. If I could have cried, I think I would have at that moment, but my kind is unable to cry.
I could feel him relax and turn into his normal golden state. "That's a good kitty.~" He then lead me over to a tree and summoned a chain. He tied the chain around me and the tree. I didn't fight him, there was no point. When he finished, he looked at me sternly before flashing another evil smile. "I'm going to leave you here to think about what you've done. There is a lesson to be learned here after all. You must learn to submit to your master. If you defy me, your friends will get hurt or die. And that is not a threat my kitty," He leaned in close.
"It's a promise I intend to keep." He pulled back. "I'll be right back my kitten, I need to test my growing powers on some unsuspecting races from other dimensions, but when I get back...
We are going to continue what we started.~"
And with that, he disappeared.
Intense huh? I honestly think I overdid it… Jeez Im just shaking thinking about it. What's wrong with me? =^._.^=
