I died. Well, technically, I'm alive, otherwise I can't write this but, I died.
I had a run-in with Bill today. Yes, the snazzy triangle who went inside of Grunkle Stan's mind. Bill Cipher. The guy the Journal told me to avoid. He came to me.
I'm getting ahead of myself. Let me start over.
When we went inside the Author's bunker, we found this broken down laptop. Soos fixed it just a few days ago and handed it back to me. I tried to get it open but I couldn't figure out the password. I was trying forever to get it open. SO long in fact that I barely got any sleep. I'm still tired writing this actually. I hope I don't fall asleep.
Anyway, I don't know if I fell asleep or not but Bill came up to me while I was sitting on the platform on the roof. He told me that he could help me get the password to the laptop if I helped him with something. I should have listened to the rest of it but I was too desperate (and tired) to even think about it.
I agreed and shook his flaming hand (how did my hand not catch on fire? Or even feel the fire? It was weird. The fire transferred to my wrist before it stopped and I didn't feel a thing...except Bill's hand). His hand was actually pretty cold. How was his hand cold? His hand was on fire!
I don't have enough time to think about that. As I was saying, when he shook my hand, he said 'eenie meenie miney you!' and yanked my spirit right out of my body. I just have bad luck when it comes to that 'eenie meenie miney mo' thing.
He cheered, slapped himself (me?) a few times, said he was going to Mabel's play for the Journal and threw himself down the stairs. As he fell, he said, and I couldn't make this up if I wanted to, "Swiggityy swournal. I'm coming for that Journal." Of course, none of that happened until after he threw the laptop on the floor and smashed it!
I followed him down the stairs, and, forgetting I was a ghost, tried to reach for the handle when my hand phased through it. So I just went through the door.
He shoved his hand inside the drawer of forks, when his arm came back out with a bunch of forks stabbed into his arm. Then he went outside after pouring soda in his eyes, UNFLINCHINGLY, and buckled up. Why did he buckle up if he wants to jump off of the water tower when he's done with my body anyway? That makes no sense.
Plus, his eyes were weird. (My eyes?) They were completely yellow with slitted pupils.
I followed him to the stage where Mabel was putting on her play. I think she was doing it because she wanted to impress some guy, from what I heard. It was super hard to keep up with the car since I can't float that fast. (It was also a little weird to get used to at first). Once I got there, I was trying to get Mabel's attention about how Bill was in my body and how he wanted the Journal. But of course, I was a ghost and she couldn't see me.
But then I remembered something Bill said. Something about a vessel. So I only had one option. Use one of Mabel's sock puppets. Ironically, it was one of me. I don't remember her making that one. Was I asleep when she made it? Or was I so tired I forgot? Either way, that one was conveniently placed there so I used it with no options left.
Mabel thought her sock puppet came to life but thankfully she believed me about Bill and decided to help. On one condition. If I helped her run her play while she got the Journal back.
I was just fine with it...until I saw the script. It was horrible. But this is the kind of sappy romance Mabel likes so I have to hold up my end of the deal for he while she helped me. Basically, it was about Mabel and her lonely romance life until she met this puppeteer, which must be who's she's doing this for. At the end, they get married but the priest's book is the Journal.
She did manage to get the Journal but Bill, who Mabel called 'Bipper' because she said it was Bill inside my body, tried to kill her. He almost got away with it too. Thankfully, Mabel managed to turn the tables on him and knock him onto the floor. He chased Mabel around a while until my body got too tired to keep up with her. Then he got kicked, or he left. One or the other. It was hard to tell.
Either way, he was out of my body and I went back in. It felt nice, for a minute. I was in so much pain. At least I know how Grunkle Stan feels every morning. I apologized to Mabel and thankfully, she was very quick to accept. She even told me that it wasn't my fault. I didn't feel like that was completely true. I was just happy she wasn't mad at me.
Bill, however, wasn't done. He tried to take Mabel's puppets. Mabel had to make a choice. Destroy the puppets or let Bill run free with them.
She destroyed the puppets. She blew them all up (I'm not sure why her stage had explosives but I wasn't one to question). She did ruin her chances with that puppeteer guy though. He ran out like a drama queen, saying that she didn't like puppets like he did. I don't think ANYONE will like puppets like he did. Except for maybe Candy, who chased him down after.
Note to self: DO NOT LISTEN TO BILL! The Journal was not lying when it said that he knows how to get into your head. HE WILL TRY, AND MOST LIKELY WIN!
Now let's get to slee
