Chapter: 4, Cursed (Part Two)

Hello?… Where am I?

Deep in a fortress of stone, lies a gateway sealed with light.

Find the pathway on your own, and pray you don't forsake your sight.

*Bill's POV*

Jay's still asleep? Wow… he's usually up by now…

I go over to Jay, slightly shaking him.

Wait… feathers?…. Jay's curse! I need to wake him up!

"Jay! Get up!" I say, worried.

"W-What.. I'm tired…" Jay says, rolling over onto his back.

"Jay, you have feathers."

"I'm up. Give me an elixir." He says, instantly awake.

"Here." I say, handing him the glass bottle.

"Thanks— *drinks elixir*— needed that."

"All good?"

"Yep!"

"Jay!" King says, jumping into the bird nest-like bed that Jay made for himself.

"Hey, king." Jay says.

*10 minutes later, because Jay takes that long to get ready for the day.*

*Jay's POV*

Deep in a fortress of stone, lies a gateway sealed with light. Find the pathway on your own, and pray you don't forsake your sight.

What does that mean….

Fortress of stone is easy, it's got to be the underground labyrinth we found those crystals at…

Gateway sealed with light? We never saw a gateway, but we haven't fully explored the labyrinth.

The rest seems self-explanatory…

I should ask Dipper or Bill.. they are much better at this than me.

"Hey, Dipper!" I say grabbing my things. "You know riddles and puzzles, so can you help me?"

"Sure, what's the puzzle?"

I sit on the arm of the couch.

"Deep in a fortress of stone, lies a gateway sealed with light. Find the pathway on your own, and pray you don't forsake your sight."

"Hmm… I'll get back to you on that…"

"Ok.."

I decided to take Bill to visit my home. King came with us.

"This place is awesome!" Bill says, walking to the front door.

The door flies open, and Mom walks in. "Hey kid! You back so soon?"

"Not really. Bill wanted a tour of the boiling isles."

"Oh. How about I show you the best view of the isles you'll ever get?"

"Sure!" Bill says, very excited.

*5 minutes later*

"This is so cool!" Bill says, almost falling off the staff.

"You ok?" Mom says.

"Yeah.."

"Hey, Mom, I told Bill about our curses. He helped me out this morning."

"Ok, if you trust him then I will too."

"Also… do you think I could get my own staff?"

"Sure. I recently found a palisman, a wolf, black with red eyes."

"Can't wait to meet it!" I say.

*At The Owl House*

The red-eyed wolf slowly approached me.

"Hey little one. Don't worry I won't hurt you. Do you have a name?"

It nods.

"What is it?"

It grabs a pencil and paper, and writes the name: Lycan.

"Lycan.. I like that name.."

I now have a palisman.

We then go back to Gravity Falls.
