Chapter 12
"Are you sure that what you saw?"Mabel asked, Dipper nodded vigorously "Yes! Look, i know Bill said not to get in his buisiness but-" "No Dipper, a deal is a deal, and you know whats gonna happen if-" "I KNOW MABEL! I just… i just dont know what to do, i dont want you, or mom, or dad to get hurt, and what if he goes and kills gruncle stan, or ford, or soos or wendy, or even grenda and candy, you dont want them to get hurt do you?" " NO! but…*sigh* i just dont know, you really think he's gonna hurt us?" " i dont know, you and i both know that if one of us is out of the picture, then the zodiac doesnt work, and now that hes not in Gravity Falls anymore, he could take over the universe whenever he wants," "IKNOW!" Mabel sighed, she didnt know what to do, but right now, she was scared, "You think bill really WILL kill you?" "Idont know, but what can we do? Bill is so much more powerful than us, he could kill us in an instant, *Dipper sighs deeply*, "look, i think we should just get some sleep, Bill hasnt tried anything yet, and he will soon, but tis been a long day, and neither of us now how what to do, i think we sould just wait for now." Mabel nodded, "But what if he tried to kill you in your sleep, or give you terrible nightmares," she gasped, a thought comming into her head, "what if he makes us re-live weirdmageddon?! Dipper i dont want to see the eyeball bats anymore?! THE MADNESS!," She grabbed Dippers shirt, shaking it vigorously as she worded her opinion, "I CANT HANDLE THE MADNESS ANYMORE!" "MABEL, MABEL CALM DOWN!" Dipper said, pulling her away and holding her at bay."Thats not going to happen, well,..i just dont know, and we cant say or do anything until we do, but for now, just go get some rest, this isnt something you can do anything about, and me as well for that matter, we cant do anything, now, just go to sleep ok?" "Promise Bill wont get us?" Dipper looked at Mabel, she looked helpless and a child again like she did before weirdmageddon, weirdmageddon had changed her a bit. "You know i cant promise what i dont know Mabel, Bill just came back from the dead, or, wherever he came from before, either way, if he has a way to come back who know what else hes capable of.?" Mabel nodded, Hugging Dipper tightly, "Night Dipper,'"she said going to her bed and laying down. Dipper did the same. And he lay there, time went on throughout the night, and it was 4 ,o,clock when he got up to go he made his wayback to his room, he saw a light from downstairs, and he followed it, as he went into the kichen, he realized, that Bill was sitting in his kichen! Dipper gasped, "Bill! What are you doing here?!" "Bill looked at him, "I came here for you Pine Tree," Dipper started to sweat, Look Bill, idont know what happened, and i didnt know you weregoing to meet someone, it was just some weird, 6th sence, and i dont know what i'd do in the first place, so, just go away Bill." "Cant Dipper, theres somethig i have to take care of first, how a bout a deal?" "NO!" Bill raised his eyebrows, "You sure Pine Tree? You might like this deal?" dipper looked at him, What iis it, i have to know detail first, or else i wont do it," "Ok, heres the deal,(Bill stood up, strolling towards Dipper,)I realy need you to stay awaywhile i try to figure suff out, Let me tell you something, im not as strong as you think am right now, and i need to get my streangth up if i want to take over this demension, what would you do if your demension was decaying and you hade the chance to do something? Im not strong enough, but i need to be, and i know you care for your family, so how about this, (Bill leaned in close,) Ill keep all your friends and family safe, if you just keep things the way they are right now, im starting to like the waty this demension is, and maybe your demension and mine could find a way to cooexsist, but i cant do that with out your help, i made my own deal, i was on your end and had to make a deal to come back, but the one a made a deal with want to have total control and kill anyone and eveyone on this planet, and if i just had your help, i could stop him, and not let him be the one to kill every living thing on this planet, so, will you help me Pine Tree?" "Whats with the sudden change of heart bill? I thought YOU want to kill evething on the planet," "I didnt, i just want to rule the 3rd dimension, oyu never really read between the lines the way you do with your silly journal do you? And besides, spending all that time i did in stans mind, i learn a lot about Bill hustling and liying, stan had a very colorful past, but i also learned about family, kind of whats its like, plus, im human right now so, stupid human feelings are getting to me, maybe i should leave and come back when im back to being the wayi was before, even so, i want to try something first, either way, do we have a deal? Ill protect the humans you care about, and you ll help me out with a few things?" Dipper hesitated, but he figure a few sacrifices should be made by him instead of anyone else for that kind of promise. Dipper nooded, Bill smiled, but a friendly-ish smile, and shook his hand blue flames engulfed dipper, an closed his eyes, and when he opened them again Bill was gone, he blinked, and went back upstairs falling asleep instantly.
The next day,
Bill plopped down next to Dipper, "Hey, Pine Tree, thanks for making a deal with me, its really going to help me!:)" , "Uh, ya, well, dont thank me yet, and now i want answers as to what it was i agreed to." " you dont need to know about aly of that pine tree." "ok, one, i told you not to call me that, two, i think i deserve a few details at least, dont you think, i mean, i could of said no, but i decided to trust you, so you should trust in me a few details at least, right?" "ok,ok your right, PINE TREEE!*wink*" dipper huffed. "So are you going to tell meanything or what?" "Ya, but lets go outside, during lunch, hows that?" "sure" ok..
*outside during lunch, underneath a tree…
"Ok, so whats going on bill?" "ok, heres the deal pine tree, i might be getting watched right now, or at least, not right now, its complicated, but if i suddenly change the subject, just go along with it ok?deal?" Dipper nodded, "ok, so heres the deal dipper, im being watched,not right now, by a demon, i had to make my own deal with another demon in order to come back here to the third in return, i would over the third demention, then hand it over to him, at first i said no, because i wanted to rule the third demention, but not just that, i learned a lot about family, enough to finally see the appeal, not that i truely care, but hes gonna kill everything on the planet if someone doesnt stop him, so, heres the deal, you know the zodiac?, the one used to destroy me right?" Dipper nodded, 'well, i made a deal that i would protect all of you, but i now realized that i would also kill one of you in order to keep that from hapeneing, so i dont know what to do pine tree, its eaither kill one of you, or protect all of you, so how am supposed to keep BOTH deals?! And, on top of all that, i ne-" "Bill?" " -Are you going?, to the party i mean?" "What? Oh no, i wasnt invited, i didnt even know there was a party, how did you know?" "Mabel asked if i was going, when i told her no, she asked me to tag along with her, said she would've taken michael but they broke up?" "Huh? Broke up?! Oh! Ya, well, he started cheating on her again so, she broke up with him, but hey, that pays the way for me!" "Heck no Bill, theres no way you are EVER dating my sister, you are SO just going to break her heart, and if you do im going to kill you!" Bill laughed at that, "KILL me? You cant even throw a punch right, let along KILL me, face it Dippster, youre not gonna do squat to me," "Well, as a brother and a twin, it is my job to protect her." "Shes not gonna get hurt dippster, honestly, you have no idea. It always makes me question your intelligence and makes me wonder how you defeated me and Gravity Falls, either way, theres no chance you'll ever beat me, wanna know why? " " what, uh, ...why?" "cause you wont be alive…" "wait WHAT?!" Dipper yelled, and there was a flash of light as dipper dissapeared. Bill laughed, and looked at the demon, nodding his head, the demon nodded back, dissapearing as looked around, with worry, in his eyes, he just violated the contract, but he didnt kill him, did he? He sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose, before going back to the school. He walked up, and saw Mabel at her locker. "Hey Bill, wheres Dipper,?" "Well, he's, not here, hey Mabel, i need to tell you something, maybe you should give Dipper his present next time you see him, just cuz, it could come in handy in a certine situation,and what i mean by that is, i need to tell you that somethings going to happen that i cant control, ..and you might think porrly of me when it happenes in the future, but so anyways, he'll need it and then theres something else, i….well i,..." Bill studdered, wondering why it was so hard for him to say the truth, it should be easy, and simple fact that could be easily stated, and yet, it was difficult, he squeezed his hands together, and breathed deeply, in, and then out, before finally deciding what to do. "I need you to trust me even if something happens with me cuz im gonna need your help, and i konw you'll know what to do, and forgive me and dont be mad im doing this for your own good, and one more thing, Mabel?" Mabel stood there, processing what he was saying, and she nodded, " i always thought youd be on the good side one day, so whats up?" "Well, I,...Uh…" Bill pilled his eyebrows together, his words werent working, so he grabbed her arm, and pulled her closer, and kissed felt so many things all at once, happiness, surprise, worry, and all in an instant, it was gone."Mabel trust me that its not me and i need your help k?" Bill said, he didnt give her timeto respond, he snapped his fingers, and in a flash, she dissapeared too. The bell rang, and when kids started crowding the hallways, no one was there.
