Episode: 4, Cursed (Part One)

*3rd person POV*

Bill was tossing and turning in his sleep, and making a lot of noise. Enough noise to wake Jay who was in the room directly below Bill.

Jay, now a bit pissed to be woken in the middle of the night, slowly and tiredly climbs the stairs and walks to Bill. He wants to wake Bill up, and ask what's going on, but he notices that Bill is moving a lot. He remembered his plan with Ford, to help slowly remind Bill who he was.

*Jay's POV*

Bill's having a nightmare…Looks pretty bad…I'll help him out. Ford must have traumatized him… Doesn't he know to take it slow? I'm going to get my old plush, which mom conveniently packed for me.

I put the plush in his arms.

Didn't work

I decided to sleep next to him.

Why do you get the best mattress in the house, Bill, huh?

*that morning (aprox. 7:40 AM)*

*Bill's POV*

*waking up*

Why is there a plush in my arms?

*sees Jay sleeping next to him, with no shirt (it summer, and want some romance) and an empty glass bottle on the nightstand.*

*screams*

"Well so much for having a good night sleep. Hey Bill. You were having a bad nightmare last night. What was it about?" He asks, stretching.

"I was reliving every moment Ford told me about, from his perspective."

"Sounds rough."

"Yeah, also what's with the glass bottle?"

Instantly, Jay's mood becomes nervous, and he starts to stutter.

"I-I'd r-rather n-not say." He says, barely getting each word out.

"Also, Jay, while I get you're hot, please put a damn shirt on."

"Ooh~ you think I'm hot?" He says teasingly

"Maybe, maybe not!" I say, internally screaming.

"Ok. I'll leave."

Why am I blushing? What are these feelings? Why do I suddenly feel like that around him? Are these feelings… bad? Or good? I need answers. I know! I'll ask King!

*Jay's POV*

Why did I just flirt with Bill?! And he was blushing! Does that mean he likes me? I mean, he's nice, but I don't know? You know what, I'll ask mom. She'd know.

Witch kid: Mom… I need help.

TheOwlLady: With what kid?

Witch kid: I think Bill likes me.. and I know what to do.

TheOwlLady: Give him a chance to prove he's worth your time. If your not impressed, keep on looking, kid!

Witch kid: Thanks mom. You always know what to do .

TheOwlLady: No problem, kid! Well I got to go, hooty is being annoying agian.

Witch kid: Hooty better stay out of my nest!

TheOwlLady: He's not in yours. He's afraid of your room. Since you hit him with a broom. Now where did king leave the pan?

Witch kid: In the cabinet. Where it always is.

TheOwlLady: Oh…yeah…thanks.

She is hilarious.

"Hey Jay! How are you?" Dipper says.

"Good. I think Bill likes me."

"I heard. Bill was asking King for help with his emotions."

"Well that's good. At least he won't do something crazy."

*meanwhile*

"So you're saying I should fight him?!" I say, almost yelling.

"Yeah! Do you want to prove to Jay you love him?"

"Yes. Ok. I'm ready."

"No. You need to train. If you challenge him now, you will most likely die. Using his magic pumps adrenaline and dopamine through his veins. The longer you fight, the better he is. Also he is very observant. Don't be predictable at all. The moment he predicts your move, he catches you off guard. Teleport away if necessary. Then teleport back and strike. Try and turn his moves against him to try and catch him off guard."

*insert epic training montage here*

Ok… I'm ready.

"Jay, I challenge you!" I say, confidently.

"Challenge accepted!" He says.

Dipper decided that he would be the referee.

*Jay's POV*

I start off the battle with a fireball. Bill dodges, disappearing in an instant, then reappearing two feet to the right. Bill lights his hand on fire, and throws a blue fireball at me, hitting me on the shoulder.

Gah! That hurt! Is his fire hotter than mine? That's annoying.

I use my plant spell, growing a thorny whip, while using an ice spell to help heal my shoulder. Bill then teleports over, and lifts me with telekinesis. I use my whip to grab him.

He then continues to lift me, eventually flying into a cloud. As we enter the cloud, it starts to darken.

Well this cloud seems to have good dramatic timing.

I use my light spell to see better, and my body starts to feel staticy.

Electricity… Well, I was thinking about improving my arsenal of spells.

I take my light spell, combining it with a fire spell. Electricity starts bouncing between my fingers.

I did it! First try! Yes! Now how do I aim this?

I build up a large amount of energy, which becomes too much for me to handle. The energy becomes an explosion. A large one. The blast makes Bill drop me. I hold my whip tight. As we fall, I do a superhero landing. And pull the whip harder. Before he could slam into the ground, he teleports himself behind me, using the momentum from the fall to punch me harder than normal.

Hurt, I put up a shield spell. Learning from my previous mistake, I make the shield surround me, so that nothing could sneak behind me.

I make an illusion of myself, and Bill ends up attacking the wrong me. I sneak behind him and knock him out.

"That was fun. So why did you challenge me?"

"Because, King told me that I had to prove that I love you."

"Y-You love me? Bill, you don't have to prove anything to me."

"But King said—" He started.

"Don't ask King for advice. Ever. He doesn't know all that much about emotions."

"Hey! I do!" King says clearly mad, but to small and cute to do anything.

"Yeah, but not how to act on them." Dipper chimes in.

*squeal of rage*

"Go hang out with Waddles." I say, encouraging King to play with Waddles.

"Fine." He says.

*1 hour timeskip*

*Bill's POV*

Dear Diary,

Day 4

Today went well! I challenged Jay earlier, and he really beat me badly. I didn't know he could make explosions! Anyway, after our battle, Dipper and I went mystery hunting in the woods. It started raining so we went to a nearby area with these purple and blue crystals. Dipper wanted me to help him research them more. When you shine light through one, it can either shrink or grow anything! I took a few back for jay's bedroom. He loves shiny things! I had so much fun! We were out for an hour!

I talked to Jay, and he told me he wants to talk to me about something in private. I should probably go talk to him… I'll be back to finish writing this in a bit.

Once I was with Jay, he took me to the woods.

"This morning, when you asked about the glass bottle on the nightstand, you probably noticed I was… nervous. I was thinking about it, and I think you deserve to know why." Jay says, slightly nervous.

"You don't have to tell me." I say, trying to calm his nerves.

"No, I want you to know." He says.

"Ok, I'll listen."

"I was cursed. I was about ten. If I don't drink one every five days, I'll turn into a monster. My mother has a very similar curse. Her beast form resembles an owl, but mine resembles a crow. Mom's curse is the reason she's known as the Owl Lady."

"Oh…god. Are you ok? And what about your new werewolf powers?"

"I don't know what would happen if I missed one now, but I would rather not find out. I do have a weakness in that form though. Light. Shine a bright light in my eyes, and I will be able to be reverted using the elixir that was in that bottle. I have twenty more. I can always ask mom for more if I run out."

"Ok. I'll help remind you if you want."

"Thanks."

We go back to the shack, and I finish my diary entry.

Jay told me about his curse. I hope he's ok.

Well, not much left I want to write so I'll leave it for the day.

*that night, Jay's POV, in Jay's dream.*

Can anyone hear me?

*note: Cliffhangers are annoying huh? I'll post part 2 soon!*
