Me: So, this chapter is the longest one yet. I cried while writing this...

Dipper: I hate you!

Me: I hate myself too. *burst into tears*

Bill: This human being is amazing!

Me: Bill, I'm not in the mood!

Mabel: So when is the wedding?

Dipper :T_T


"The door you want is right down here. It's under constant lock down and is to never be opened." She said sternly, she speaks as if there are more people that just her.

"Who do you think is going to open it? Isn't it only you and Pine Tree?" I asked, Luna chuckled.

"Don't you know anything about our mind?" Luna said unlocking the door. I thought I knew about all minds but what is going on with Pine Tree's?

"I thought I did."

"Well there are emotions like anger, sadness, depression, paranoia and the list goes on. There are others though like me and the boy next to you. We aren't emotions, I am just something that could have been. The boy next to you, he is all the scars and emotional problems but you knew that didn't you?" Luna explained, I know nothing about Pine Tree. The door creaked open and colors came into view. I watched it like a TV.

Pine Tree sat and watched as his sister skipped down the road to meet with her friends. He was probably around 6 years old. It looked as if he was making sure she didn't get hit while crossing. He smiled and waved at his sister then went back inside of his house. He stopped at the stairs when he heard screaming from his parents.

"Where were you last night!?"

"At the store woman! I swear on our twins lives!"

"Why didn't you answer your phone!"

"IT WAS DEAD!"

"IT WOULD HAVE GONE TO VOICE MAIL IF IT WERE DEAD!"

"Get off my back you hag!"

"Why don't you just leave me already?"

"Because I don't want to pay stupid child support for your kids!"

"You shut your mouth! Those kids are just as much yours as they are mine. Don't even try to tell me you don't love them!" Pine Tree looked down before stepping down a few steps and sitting. It was obvious that this was normal.

"That was one of the kids wasn't it?" a door slammed soon after, Pine Tree looked up happily.

"I could hear your arguing from outside! I thought I raised you better and that is no way to treat a woman!" an older voice scolded. Pine Tree popped up and ran into the room where the events were happening. He jumped into a mans arms and hid his face into his shoulder. The man lifted Pine Tree up.

"You scared the child half to death!" the man shouted, the woman came closer to Dipper to apologize only for Dipper to hide deeper into the mans shoulder. She pulled her hands back.

"I think me and Dipper need a little time, how does that sound?" the man asked the skinny child in his arms. Pine Tree's small hands gathered the fabric of the shirt in his hands and nodded.

"Grandpa Shermy can we go to the park?" Pine Tree whispered, Shermy nodded.

"We can go get some ice cream too. We'll even bring some back for your sister." Shermy spoke, he carried Pine Tree to his car and strapped him in.

"Isn't the front seat dangerous for a kid my age?" Pine Tree said, god the kid is a stick in the mud even as a child.

"Well you can trust me right? I'm not going to crash." Shermy said getting in and shutting the door. He started the car and took off.

"Grandpa Shermy slow down!" the kid yelled as he gripped onto the door for dear life, Shermy laughed.

"Relax, I'll make sure we don't crash!" Shermy purposely let go of the wheel for a second and let the car swerve. Pine Tree started to cry, Shermy stopped and laughed.

"You're so mean!" he cried.

"Sorry Dipper, will you stop crying if I let you hit me?" Shermy offered, Pine Tree crossed his arms and looked away.

"I wasn't crying, and yes." Pine Tree huffed and wiped the tears off his cheeks. He balled up his fist and hit Shermy, He smiled.

"It was supposed to hurt!" he whined.

"Oh, argg my arm!" Shermy faked, Pine Tree laughed.

"Can we make a deal?" Pine Tree asked, Shermy was interested.

"What type of deal are we talking about here?" he asked, Pine Tree thought for a second.

"Promise me you will always stay out of danger. I want you to stay with me as long as god will let me have you. Deal?" Pine Tree held out his hand, Shermy though carefully.

"What if I break our deal and I put myself in danger?" he asked, Pine Tree smiled.

"Then if you're still alive I own you, but if you're dead I own your soul and you can never leave me. You can't pass on without me!" Pine Tree kept his hand out, Shermy shook his hand firmly.

"I just made a deal with a devil haven't I?" He chuckled, They got out of the car and ordered ice cream. They took their sweet treats and sat down at the park.

"You know when I was little my parents used to fight all the time too. My brother moved out when I was really young and he never visited so I didn't have any siblings to help me through it." Shermy explained to his grandchild. Little did he know he had two brothers.

"Are you telling me this because I over herd mommy and daddy fight?" he asked, Shermy smiled.

"You are the brightest kid I have ever met. In the future when you are a world class detective you'll invite me to your mansion right?" Shermy asked the kid, Pine Tree gave him a thumb up.

"You can live with me and Mabel! You won't have to work because I'll take care of you!" Pine Tree tilted his head and took a lick of his chocolate ice cream. They dropped off ice cream to the group of girls having a sleepover then went back to the park.

"Grandpa! Swing with me!" Pine Tree smiled as he kicked his feet to get moving. Shermy took the swing next to his grandson and swung only little ways off the ground.

"You know your mom and dad loves you and your sister very much, right?" he asked with a serious tone. Pine Tree stopped kicking and the swing slowed.

"Of course! Now can we go see the ducks in the pond?" Pine Tree asked changing the topic for the second time. Shermy agreed and walked with the hyperactive brunette holding his hand. They sat on the bench by the big pond in the park.

"Do they fight in front of you and Mabel?" he asked, Pine Tree glanced over at him.

"All the time but it doesn't bother us much. Woe! Look at those two, their fighting!" Pine Tree switched the subject. Shermy's eyebrows furrowed as he grabbed Pine Trees arm.

"Of course it bothers you! How could it not!" he shouted Pine Tree looked down.

"Can we just stop talking about this grandpa Shermy?" he asked, his cheeks were pink and his eyes watered. Shermy loosened his grip and then let go.

"You must be tired, do you want to stay and my house for the night?" he asked, the kid nodded. They went to the old man's house and by that time the sun had done set. Pine Tree was in a big shirt that was owned by Shermy and had a big blanket wrapped around him. He clutched a homemade stuffed bear and shut his eyes. Shermy kissed his forehead and shut out the lights to the living room where Pine Tree slept on the couch.

The night went on and Pine Tree wouldn't stop tossing and turning. The boy was stricken with nightmares. He popped up off the couch and wiped his eyes. He herd someone was awake probably Shermy getting a snack like he always did. He walked down the hall to the kitchen and peeked behind the wall. There was man he didn't recognize in his grandpas kitchen. Shermy was on the floor in pain. Pine Trees eyes widened at the sight of his grandpas distress.

"Your family owes us a lot of money! And the only Pines we can actually find is you!" the man said, his friends came in and searched the kitchen and other places in the house without seeing Pine Tree.

"P-please! I don't have any money just please take anything you want and go." He begged, Pine Tree back away to get help only to bump into a huge man. He grabbed him by the shirt and dragged Pine Tree out into sight of the man that was running the operation.

"I found a kid sir!" he spoke as Pine Tree struggled to get out of the man's grip.

"Shirt off." The man did as told and ripped the shirt away. The kid started to tear up and he collapsed in the man's grip.

"He's healthy, I know some people who would pay top dollar for the kid. Put him in the car." He dragged Pine Tree to the car and strapped him in. Shermy staggered to the car to retrieve him but was hit over the head by a bat. Blood splattered on the car window and Pine Tree looked down to see if his grandpa was alright. He was still conscious as he opened the car door to get his grandson out. The evil man scoffed and watched Shermy struggle to get him out.

"This is amusing, you know what. I'm not going to do anything yet." The man smiled and stood by the car. Pine Tree was unbuckled and out of the car but he refused to leave Shermy.

"Go run!" Shermy urged but he didn't listen.

"Why did you come to get me! You wouldn't have been hurt so bad if you just let them take me. You lied!" He cried, Shermy pushed him away.

"The kid is right, Pines." The man spoke.

"I'm sorry, you own my soul now ok. I promise I won't pass on without you just go!" Shermy shouted, the men cornered him to keep him from running and they grabbed him by the arms.

"You know what, lets beat him to death with the kid watching!" the man said as he gripped his bat.

"Let him go!" Pine Tree yanked to try to get his arms free.

"Shut up!" the man shouted, then he tried to look away from his grandfather being beaten but his head was roughly grabbed and he was forced to watch.

"Please! St-" The kid was trembling and would have collapse if the men weren't keeping him up.

"I told you to shut your mouth kid!" The bat swung once then twice ramming into the old man and splattering blood everywhere. You could hear bones braking and his screams of pain. Pine Tree was covered in his grandfathers blood. There were tears streaming down the kid's face making lines on his cheeks from the blood.

"STOP! STOP! Please stop! Please, let me go!" he screamed at the men, he squirmed out of their grasp and ran for his life.

"Shoot the police, let's get out of here. HEY KID! YOU'RE THE ONE WHO DID THIS! YOU SHOULD HAVE SHUT YOU MOUTH!" the man yelled. The police finally showed at the sight but Pine Tree was curled up in the ally. He was screaming and crying. His nails dug into his arms and he scratched. The poor boy witnessed something so horrific at such a young age.

"GRANDPA SHERMY! WE HAD A DEAL! You can't leave me! You have to stay with me! Please show me you're still here." He cried and gritted his teeth. He made sounds that sounded like a dog whimpering. The police looked around the area for the kid that was uncalled for. They ran into the ally and tried the pick him up only to get kicked and punched by the screaming child. The memory started to blacken, it was probably the point where Pine Tree passed out or something. It was dark for a short bit but then it started to flicker. There was light through the window of the car by the other passing cars. Pine Tree was wrapped up in a blanket in the back of a police car. He sat up and rubbed his eyes, he looked down at his hands to find blood. The realization hit him hard that it wasn't a dream. His eyes quickly watered and he started to wail. The car stopped and the police man got out of the car. He came around and got Pine Tree out of the car and held him. He looked fairly young.

"It's ok, shh. Do you know where you live?" he asked, Pine Tree couldn't use his voice. It was like he couldn't speak so he just shook his head. The kid was only a little older than a toddler so you couldn't expect him to know. He kicked and cried but the officer was too strong for the kid.

"Do you want something to eat?" the officer asked, Pine Tree shook his head. He defiantly wouldn't be able to eat after that. He carried Pine Tree into the station and sat him down, he handed the kid his phone and put on a game thinking he if he got board he could play it. He set the game down and pulled on his hair.

"I'll be back, can you tell me your name buddy?" he asked, Pine Tree tried but hesitated. He tried again only to not have any sound come out.

"I understand." The officer said and went into the back room with another officer. He came back out around five minutes later. Pine Trees mind was unable to comprehend the fact his grandpa was ripped away from him in the matter of seconds. He stared at the floor unable to move.

"The man that died, you're his grandson right? (Again I do not know his real name) Anthony Pines?" He asked, Pine Tree slightly nodded but never made eye contact.

"Alright! Your parents are going to be picking you up." The officer said, Pine Tree did nothing but stare at the ground. The young officer looked at the depressed boy in sadness. About 10 minutes later his parents came in and carried him to the car. Pine Tree was still sour about their fight so he didn't dare hug them back. He lost everyone, he hates his parents and his only escape was his grandpa. Shooting Star is all he has now. And she is at her friend's house most of the time. When he got home he saw his sister crying on the floor. She popped up and hugged the death out of her brother.

"Dipper! Thank god you're ok!" she sobbed into his shoulder, he didn't hug back. He stared into nothingness with a black face. The girl cried her eyes out, Pine Tree slowly started to gain expressions back. His face went sad and his legs went limp. They both fell to the ground. He gripped onto his sister's shirt and cried with her. It went back again and changed to morning time. Pine Tree sat on his bed in the basement. Shooting Star hopped on his bed with him and faced him.

"So umm Dip? Are you ok? You haven't said a word since I last saw you yesterday." She asked, he didn't even bother to move.

"Can you please talk to me?" she asked, he still didn't move.

"Dipper! I need to know that you're alrig-"

"Can we make a deal?" Pine Tree asked, Shooting Star smiled. His voice was barely noticeable.

"What type of deal?" she asked, Pine Tree looked down and started to tear up.

"Promise me you will always stay out of danger. I want you to stay with me as long as god will let me have you. Deal?" Pine Tree held out his hand, Shooting Star looked at her brother with concern.

"What if I break it?" she asked, Pine Tree's lower lip started to tremble.

"Then if you're still alive I own you, but if you're dead I own your soul and you can never leave me. You can't pass on without me!" Pine Tree kept his hand out but it shook, Shooting Star took his hand in hers and held it close to her chest.

"Deal." They shook hands.

"Do you mind telling me what happened?" she asked, he nodded.

"He was killed in front of my face and I was almost kidnapped. That's what happened. I can't get it out of my head! The bat smashing into grandpa Shermy, every word I said only made it worse for him. T-that's why I would rather not speak to anyone but you." His voice was still barely a whisper, like he wanted to be able to speak louder but he just couldn't.

"What's that on your arm? H-have you been scratching yourself?" she asked, he looked down in shame.

"Here." She handed him some head phones and she turned on a song. She took his body in her arms and pulled the covers above them both.

"Are you hungry? You haven't eaten anything all day." She asked, Pine Tree shook his head.

"Well to bad, as your older sister I have to make sure my little brother eats properly." She hopped up and ran out of the room before he could say anything. Pine Tree smiled at his sister's up beat attitude. When she came back she had a bowl of frozen Grapes in her hand. He got back on the bed and held out a grape for Pine Tree to eat but he shook his head.

"Dipper, eat the grape!" she shouted, he shook his head again and looked away. Shooting Star tackled him down. His face went blank then he started to tear up.

"Let me go." He whined about to break out in tears. Shooting Star quickly got off.

"Sorry, but I will get you to eat!" she announced, she sat over her brother that was still lying down. She quickly popped a grape in his mouth and held his mouth shut. He groaned and tried to pull the hand away from his mouth. It didn't work.

"All you have to do is swallow it and I'll let you go." She said, he looked away and swallowed. She got up and covered him back up. She gave him another and he ate it without a fight. He already ate the first one so he just gave in. Shooting Star switched the song on the headphones and laid down next to Dipper. She could hear the music coming out of the head phones so she decided to sing along.

"Just close your eyes. The sun is going down. You'll be alright. No one can hurt you now. Come morning light. You and I'll be safe and sound." She began to hum to him. The vision began to get dark. I looked to Ash with wide eyes.

"What…" I had no words, Ash ignored me and turned around to get out of there before he would have to get locked up.

"If you think that was bad just keep walking down the hall till you find the door has 323 on it." Luna said, I didn't want to see anymore.

Ash said eager to get out. I lifted Ash up and started to walk out, Luna ran after us.

"Where do you think you're going with the prisoner?!" she yelled, I quickly raced out of his mind and found where Pine Tree was pounding on the bubble trying to get out. I popped the bubble and let him out. He dropped to the ground.
