~Silver P.O.V~

The book stopping was the last thing I noticed.

The same feeling of cold wire snapped around both my wrists and other ankle, as my back pressed against a tree and my limbs were dragged back around it. My left arm made a popping sound, causing me to scream.

I opened my mouth, I pushed out the air, but nothing came. I tried again, but still nothing came out except for a high squeak heard by no one. Without voice there wasn't a thing I could do, struggling was no longer an option either.

I saw him emerge from the woods, completely ignoring me and going straight to the book. He looked down into the hole before swiftly picking it up and dusting it off. "Knew it all along, what kind of idiot do you think I am. I waited until you made the same foolish mistake you do every time, and here my book is without me even having to look."

"You're the idiot!" Catherine screamed. "This could have been done a while ago but sure enough you know how to beat the dead horse!" Bill shrugged, huffing as he rolled his eyes.

"Sure I am. You really thought you could stop me? Seriously? And why in the first place? I finally have enough power and here you go, trying to destroy all our-"

"My work!" Catherine hissed. "You did nothing but sit around while I did our job! You would've been useless without me!"

"Useless? Really?" He chuckled. "Oh I am more powerful without you, you are nothing but something to hold me back."

"So what now!" Catherine yelled. "What are you going to do!" Bill chuckled again, avoiding a response, shoving in a mindless chuckle instead. I growled, just as a knife slipped off his fingers landing right next to my face.

"What I was meant to do, but now, there is no Catherine with me. I do this alone," He snapped his fingers while I fell aimlessly to the ground. I rubbed my head in pain.

"But I'm here to get in your way! You can't kill me! You know how this works!" The bars were lifted and an extremely hurt and dirty Catherine floated out. "I have to make a deal if you want my power, or if you want to go through with your little plans. We. Must. Agree"

Her eyes sharply went to me as Bill stood in a thinking position. They moved to the side, over and over again, signaling me to run away. Well at least I thought.

"You are quite stubborn, nothing you love, nothing you care about..."

Her eye movement rapidly increased to the side. Faster and more stressed with each movement. I don't know why, but my body didn't move. Running away would probably trigger something. Something that I did not want to get involved in.

A revelation occurred.

"Wait a second! I think I know..." Bill slowly turned with a glare.

I still wasn't moving like the idiot I was.

Catherine took a deep breath and just let everything out at once. "WILL YOU JUST GET OUT OF HERE! RUN YOU IDIOT!"

After the first word came out I sprinted, I don't know where I was going I merely sprinted. Brush was crushing behind me but I refused to look back. I pushed myself forward as long as my legs could take me. After bursting into a sprint I immediately began to tire. My legs were numbing and they were beginning to lose feeling to them. I spotted a clearing, one I hoped that would be filled with people. Instead, giving a final push past a tree, my legs gave up.

But that was fine.

There was nothing more to run on anyways.


Catherine gave a look of both anger and happiness. Sending a blue-flame animal after her was completely useless. Both water, and the sight of people, would be inaccessible. And just as she thought, it came back moments later with nothing.

"One job..." Bill muttered, snapping as the creature vanished. "One...damn...job.."

"To much for ya~" Catherine cockily responded. Her brother smirked,

"You realize your weakness is now visible to me, right? Do not even hesitate to think I wouldn't consider bartering off a human being, if that is unknown to you, pure foolishness." Catherine straightened her back, trying to free herself but was unable.

"How can you be so sure?" She smiled.

"Oh please, if you didn't any bond with that rat she would be dead, you would be happy, we would be dominating the world right now, and you would have no problem with that," He scoffed. "But instead here you are, unable to see what happens when this happens. You're a disgrace to the people we stand for. Do you realize that?"

"Course I do. But our parents our dead and it's not like I give one living crap about you," Catherine hissed. Bill blinked in response, a wave of confusion before the light blinked on.

"Oh I see what's going on here...you hate your family...and she doesn't have one..." He looked up. "Oh how cute~."

"That's not what's happening!"

"Then please, feel free to tell me what it is."

A wave of silence fell.

"Exactly what I thought," Bill smirked. "Now, I should be setting up now. Killing a few people, slaves, sending a team out for the girl, getting her, sealing a deal with you, breaking free from Gravity Falls, ruling the world, and yeah...I think that's about it~."

"I can find a few flaws..." Catherine hissed. But her brother simply waved her off in response, dropping her back in the cage, and flying off.

Minutes later orange and red painted the sky, and Catherine heard screams from inside the cell. Sounds of buildings exploding, shattering glass, and finally seeing two strange beings pull her and the mutt out of the cell. Flying them up to some strange castle in the sky.

The dog was thrown off somewhere else, while Catherine was brought to a large room, a throne sitting in the center with her brother as the appointed king. Not even enough respect to change out of his demon form. A small birdcage hung from the ceiling next to the chair is where Catherine was thrown inside. Right next to her brother who seemed to be smiling, although no one could tell.

"Welcome to the party, sis."

Catherine scoffed lightly before pulling her knees to her chest and looking away.

"Fine, be that way," Bill waved it off. "Hey you-" he pointed to a large werewolf looking creature. "You too-" pointing to a large, strange lizard creature doused in red. "Pick up the girl's scent, I'm sure my sister over here has got loads of it."

"Hey!" Catherine screamed before being bombarded with noses and large faces. Both creatures looked back before both hissing and barking.

"Then go! The sooner we get his done, the sooner we rule the world!"

Catherine felt something, something strange.

She felt like she had felt it before, but at the same time this feeling felt rare.

Catherine knew this feeling, the light bulb went on.

If time was sparred...this could work...

...that kid might actually be able to beat Bill...
