Chapter 1: The Beginning of all Demons
Most demons had a mortal life before this one. In my case, I didn't, but I'll explain about that later. All the other demons that appeared after my existence lived a mortal life. A human life. Amazing huh, how a mere meatsack can have the lifespan of a dayfly, but demonically change into a demon with (almost) everlasting life? Ever took a peek at those super thick, 'holy' books called bibles? Remember that one dude named Adam and his girl Eve? When they died, they turned into demons. There is no god, but ME. When those very first two mortals died, the Great Forces
of the Universe (I wasn't there, I was still getting used to my demonic form. Plus, their gatherings/meetings are so boring! They don't even serve food!) chose to create an alternative. That alternative was life after death. So as I was saying (writing if you wanna be precise), Adam and Eve turned into Greed Demons, with the help of the Great Forces, or GFU, for short. (Categories of demons will be explained later.)
Who are the GFU? No being knows for sure, but they are the creators of the universe, all celestial and mythical beings know this. We also know that there are quite a few of them, not just one big boss doin' all the work. Not much more is know about them, and I won't write about them much.
So how exactly do humans turn into demons, or a demon become a demon? A mortal lives a life following the ways of the Seven Deadly Sins, dies, then BOO-YA, you appear before the GFU on trial. No being, not even I, knows what the GFU physically looks like. On trial, you're in a dark room with only the voices of the judges to keep you (in)sane. I won't say much more than that. A human may become a demon and follow the ways of the SDS (Seven Deadly Sins) without trying or knowing. For example, I know a chap who was drowning in a world of porn ever since he was born. His mother was a slut and his father, well, had a porn addiction. He committed suicide when he was 16. Saw him floating off toward some other lust demons after his trial. Demons of the same category tend to stick together.
Now let's talk about how I became a demon. The GFU never created anything good, not even those lazy, good for nothing angels, who're just demons that came out wrong. The first thing the GFU ever made was, well, me. They wiped any knowledge of how I came to be; don't you dare ask me anything referring to that. So pretty much, the GFU was there, then POOF! Bill Cipher the Great came into 'existence ' .They also decided to give me two brothers who are know as Tad Strange and Will Cipher. For a millennium, Tad and I have argued about our age. Whoever was older would have more rights/ power. Will...Will is my reverse twin brother. Weird, huh? Completely different personality,but he copies my sense of style and looks exactly like me. (Guess I'm just too charming!) Will isn't a threat to my power, but Tad Strange can't be trusted...much like myself. But no more about those two nuisances, though.
Switching to your normal pov
Closing the book quietly because you didn't want to disturb Bill, you made your way back to the desk where the book had lain before.
Out of the corner of your eye, you saw Bill place his book down and float over to you.
-"Take a walk with me, y/n. There's much that we need to talk about."
With your back still turned, you mumbled, "Where to?"
You turned around and looked the demon in the eye as he thoughtfully said, "Someplace quiet..."
But was there any place quieter than the Mindscape?

Dipper's pov
-"Stop it! There's no way, I, Dipper Pines, will ever give you my soul, goddamit!"
Who knows for how long I'd been stuck in here with this weird demon?
The cramped room I was in seemed like a small cellar or prison cell, but with almost no source of light.
The only light in here was the glow coming off the demon's eyes...
-"You don't understand! I can get you outta here and find that female and old guy you're talkin' about! I just need your soul, literally, because there's a secret passageway that only demons can get through because they're soulless." The green, 8-balleyed
demon explained.
-"How do I know that I can trust you?" I asked, backing away from the demon who was quickly advancing toward me.
-"Just...follow...me." The demon whispered, as he receded into the shadows to the left of the dark room. Taking a glance at the damp, dreary place I was in, I moved my scraped, sore legs and ran toward the demon, and hopped down a trapdoor that I hadnot
seen before.
Ford's pov
I trailed my hand across the blood red moss on the wall as I paced around Bill's dungeon. The demon who had introduced himself as Kryptos told me that he could lead me to Dipper and y/n on one condition: that I would give him my soul. Was giving up,what,
only10-20 more years of my life worth it? Could I deal with being a soulless, mortal for the rest of my life, even if it saved Dipper and y/n from certain harm?
I snuck a glance at the grey/blue rhombus in the corner.
-"Oh, come ON, Ford! It's totally worth it! You'll save y/n and that other kid if ya do!"
Glaring, I growled, "Give me more time to think."
-"Ohhhh, no. You've had more than enough time, old man!" Kryptos laughed.
-"Fine, Fine! I'll make that deal with you, but don't call me 'old man'.
-"Follow me, old man." Kryptos snickered.
Bill's pov
-"Here, watch your step, doll." I warned.
-"Oh, God, I'm going to fall, I'm afraid of heights! BILL!" She yelped.
-"Heh, I know, sweetie." I smirked.
I led her along the ledge of the cliff, looking back and squeezing her hand every so often to make sure she wasn't slipping.
-"Here, sit down and enjoy the view; we need to talk." I said, sitting down and patting the space next to me.
-"Um...I don't think.."
With a sigh, I yanked her down next to me, and accidentally (I swear!) into my lap.
-"EEP!"
Both blushing terribly, I snapped my fingers so that she would be seated next to me, both our legs dangling off the ledge of the cliff.
-"Don't look down." I whispered into her ear.
But what do humans do? They instinctively look down. So that's exactly what I predicted for her to do. And that's what she did.
What I didn't expect was for her to wrap her arms around my neck and stare at me with wide, e/c eyes.
I raised an eyebrow and smirked at her.
-"Scared, aren't we?" I teased.
She immediately plastered an annoyed look on her face and snarled, "Well, if you're with an untrustworthy demon and are a fragile human that has organs that'll go SPLAT when you hit the ground from 300+ feet in the air then YES, I think I am scared. Scratch
that,
I KNOW I'm scared."
Chuckling at her response, I changed the topic.
-"Alright, alright, fine, let's get to the point. Tell me about your parents." I asked.
It was quite funny, watching her expression go from fear, to anger, to pure shock.
-"W-what about them?" She stuttered, looking away.
Putting my thumb and index finger under her chin and gently turning her face toward me, I whispered,"Tell me how...they died."
After that statement, the story of her parents, which I had not looked into before, started.
