Author's Notes: So this chapter is more of a fluff than a smut, but I hope you like it all the same.

(Back with Mabel)

Stockholm syndrome,

She never though such a thing really existed. She always thought you had to be pretty mental to fall for your own attacker.

"More Tea my little Star?"

Mabel looked up from her teacup nervously at the purple floppy disc demon before her. "Why yes, I would love some." She told him, holding out her cup.

The demon pours her a glass, his eye squinted in an obvious smile. "You're getting really good at this my little Star." He said. "You make me so happy."

"Thank you." Mabel said with a smile, and began to sip her tea, her mind is deep in thought about the demon before her.

Tad Strange defiantly lived up to his name, in fact her time with him was so strange that sometimes she believed him to be the Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland. Of course that would make her Alice, which would explain the blue and white dress she was wearing.

"I am happy too." She admitted.

"Really?" Tad asked.

"It may be that all this sugar is going to my head." Mabel admitted. "But I think that as far as Demons go I could have been worse off."

Tad sighed; it sounds almost lovingly. "I am so happy to hear that my little Star, I dreamed of our time together, and I honestly feared you'd be too scared and stuck in your old ways to give me a chance."

"Oh don't get me wrong." Mabel said. "We will defeat you all, but as far as slavery goes, I've read of worse."

"I could be cruel." Tad admitted, ignoring her obvious declaration of war against his kind. "But I like you better this way." He admitted. "Joyous, hyper, like a loose cannon ready to fire."

Mable smiled, yes she had to be mental to think this demon of bad luck was anything but insane. 'Maybe the creep spiked my tea.' She thought.

"Now Star what have I told you about the C word?" Tad lectured.

'Right he can read my mind.' Mabel reminded herself. "It's not nice to call people names." She said. "I'm sorry Tad, you're just so-"

"Strange?" He asked.

Mabel nodded. "Exactly." She agreed. "I expected a demon to be cruel and mean. Not role playing the Tea Party from Alice in Wonderland."

"Yes! I knew you'd figure it out!" Tad exclaimed. "You see I'm the Mad Hatter, he's strange too! And your-"

"Alice I know." Mabel interrupted. "And if memory serves me well she too had no plans of going to a crazy tea party with a most strange character."

"Exactly! Don't you see these parts were meant for us?" Tad explained. "We are the perfect Alice and Mad Hatter the Multiverse has ever seen!"

"Well if the Mad Hatter had enslaved Alice and made her his pet I would agree with you." Mabel said.

"Oh Star I thought you loved being mine." Tad said in a pouting tone.

Mabel couldn't help but smile, it was strange, it was all so strange, but she guessed that's why strange was in the guy's name. He was completely opposite of what you'd expect a demon to be. Sure he was crazy, and rather mad, but in a childish way, instead of the insane Dorito sort of way.

A clock chimes behind them on the wall.

"Oh goody it's time!" Tad exclaims getting up from the table.

"Time?" Mabel asked.

"Yes it's been exactly five days." Tad said. "Do you remember what I promised would happen in five days."

DIPPER!

His name alone made her soul grow wings; she was going to see her brother today! "Are you really going to let me see him?" She asked.

"Of course my little Star." Tad said. "I am a demon of my word." He assured her.

Mabel ran up to him and hugged him tightly, too caught up in her excitement to care that she was hugging a creep. "Oh thank you Tad."

"Nonsense Star you earned it." Tad assured her, hugging her back. "And if you stay a good girl you can see him more often."

Mabel smiled, yeah he defiantly put something in that tea, but she could care less because she was finally going to see Dipper!

'I hope he's doing okay.' She thought to herself, as she allowed Tad to lead her out the door. 'Mmm I wonder what he's doing right now.'

(Back with Dipper)

"Bill I look ridiculous!" Dipper whined.

"Nonsense you look adorable!" Bill said laughing.

Dipper grit his teeth, the insane Dorito had him dressed up in a black and white maid costume, completed with a collar and a glowing pine tree as his name tag. "I look like a grade A slut!" he whined.

"I told you I'd make you the best slut the Multiverse has ever seen." Bill chuckled darkly.

"Can't I just wear some of my clothes back at the shack?" Dipper asked, hopefully.

"Nope they all mysteriously caught fire." Bill said with a suggestive squint in his demonic eye.

"Mysteriously?" Dipper asked not buying it for a second. "You jerk, you burned all my clothes!"

"Yep and believe me kid I did you a favor." Bill mused. "Now, stop your pouting or I'll make you stay." Bill warned.

Dipper sighed. "Fine, can we just go already?"

Bill shifted into his human form; his face sported a smirk. "Can't wait to show off your new outfit hu kid." He wraps his arms around him and grinds up against him.

"No I want to see Mabel." Dipper whined. "You promised Bill."

Bill sighed, "Fine, but what are you to do?"

"Behave." Dipper answered. "And address you properly."

Bill smiled. "Good boy, now let's go see your sister before I decide to rip you out of that dress and take you now."

Dipper nodded and allowed Bill to guide him back down into the throne room.

It was crowded, and as soon as they landed in the center of the room all eyes were on them.

Dipper turned cherry red, as thousands of demon eyes looked him over.

"Dipper?" a voice asked unsure.

He knew that voice, he knew that voice anywhere. "Mabel?" He turns and there she is, running towards him, and hugging him tight enough that it's suffocating.

"Oh thank goodness you're okay." Mabel exclaimed hugging him impossibly tighter. "But why are you wearing a dress?"

"Who cares?" Dipper cried. "Mabel I am so sorry about everything." He said holding her tight. "This is all my fault."

"Dipper what are you talking about?" Mabel asked.

"He killed you, I had to save you." Dipper said through tears. "I freed Bill, so he'd bring you back from the dead." He expected her to push him away, to tell him she hated him, but instead she held him closer.

"I love you." She said. "Besides I brought the end of the world too remember, at least your wish wasn't as selfish as mine."

Relief washed over him, so she didn't hate him that was good. It would be much easier for them to escape if they weren't arguing every five seconds. Escape, was it even possible? Dipper looked all around them, but he couldn't see Ford, or Stan anywhere.

However he did see Pyronica, she is laughing and cutting up with the 8ball demon, and the one with a lot of teeth. And without much thought he raced over to them. "Where's my uncle!" Dipper demanded.

"Mmm looks like this one hasn't been taught any manners." Teeth hissed.

"Where is he?!" he asked Pyronica.

"Oh old six fingers?" she asked. "I got bored of him and threw him into the dungeon with the other one. Not much fun that one, I can see why Bill threw him away. Now you on the other hand look like you'd be fun to play with."

Dipper backed away as she licked her lips, only to sigh in relief as Bill stepped in front of him almost protectively.

"Now Pyronica darling, must you always try and steal my things?" Bill asked kindly, however, venom laced in his voice.

"I was only teasing." Pyronica assured him. "Besides, now maybe next time he won't be so rude."

Dipper bit his lip as Bill gave him a knowing look. "Sorry Master." He mumbled.

"Nonsense, old habit die hard; besides you're too excited by seeing your sister." Bill mused, his eyes never leaving the female demon.

"Can I see-" Dipper began, but Bill cut him off.

"What? Bored of your sister already? Or perhaps you wish to take her down to the dungeon with you so the whole family can start planning my demise?"

"I just wanted to see them too." Dipper mumbled.

"You can." Bill assured him. "But only when they've earned it."

Dipper bit his lip harder; he hadn't expected Bill to throw him such a curve ball, but he guessed the demon just didn't want to take any chances.

"Now you go run along while your master discusses territories, and other boring stuff. Sound fair?" The Dorito asked.

"Yes, Master." Dipper answered and hurried off back towards Mabel.

"So I'm guessing we're not seeing our Grunkles today hu?" Mabel asked in defeat.

"He says they have to earn the privilege to see us." Dipper told her. "He's really not giving us any chances here Mabel."

"Grunkle Ford will figure out something, he always does." Mabel tried to assure him.

Dipper sighed, he wanted to believe her, but he felt like the longer they waited to take Bill out, the less likely it would happen.

And he was right, their window of opportunity was closing.

With every day Bill got stronger, and it wouldn't be much longer before he was unstoppable.

"So you threw Sixer into the dungeon already?" Bill mused once His sapling was out of ear sot.

Pyronica nodded. "I've had my fun with him, you can do as you please."

Bill smiled darkly, "Perfect…"

(Back with Ford)

This was most definitely the worse scenario that he had ever been in, and that was including the time that he had been stuck in the portal.

"Is there really no way out of this?" Stan asked him.

"None that I can see." Ford admitted. "Even if Mabel hadn't destroyed the memory gun, Bill no longer needs to make deals with any of us."

"How could we have been so stupid!?" Stan cursed.

"No I'm the one at fault, we should have just used the Zodiac to banish his remains while we had the chance, but no I insisted on finding a permanent solution." Ford admitted regretfully.

"Yeah well we didn't try to stop you." Stan pointed out. "Damn we have to get out of here, there's no telling what those monsters are doing to the kid's."

Ford bit his lip, he knew what Bill was doing, for he had once been there, and it was filthy, and vile! And if this Tad was anything like his brother then Mabel was in the same boat. "I know, but there is no way out!" he didn't want to sound hopeless, but he could think of nothing.

"Come one Point Dexter, there has to be something you're not thinking of." Stan encouraged him.

"I'm telling you Stanley there is no way to stop Bill." Ford yelled. "Not this time."

"He's right you know." Bill said appearing before their cells.

"Bill you one-eyed demonic bastard." Stan yelled. "What have you done to the kids?"

"Oh they're fine." Bill assured them, leaning his human form against a wall.

"The hell they are!" Ford snapped.

"Oh but they are." Bill mused. "In fact they've even started to accept their new rolls."

"Lier!" Stan yelled. "Why would they ever agree to be your sex toys?"

"Simple, in exchange for being good slaves they get privileges." Bill explained. "For example, they get to spend the whole day together, right now; because they've behaved. I could let you join them you know."

"Why would you do that?" Ford snapped once more; he hated how Bill had to beat around the bush before getting to the point.

"Well, let's get realistic for a moment." Bill chuckled. "You two haven't been fed today have you?"

Ford shook his head.

"No and you won't get fed will he Stanley?" Bill looked to Stan.

"He's right, I've been surviving off some trail mix that I luckily had on me when Bill was freed." Stan admitted gravely.

"So that's it you're going to starve us until we give in?" Ford scoffed. "That won't work."

"No you won't give in because you're hungry." Bill agreed. "You'll give in because your starving, and once you starve to death you'll leave Shooting Star, and Pine Tree alone at our mercy; forever!"

Ford literally growled in distain; damn he hated when that triangle jerk was right! He shared a look with Stan, and it was obvious he was thinking the same thing, they couldn't afford to be stuck in their pride. The Kids needed them, emotionally, and physically. Besides they had a better chance at fighting Bill if they were all together.

"Tick, tock Sixer." Bill teased. "I'm getting impatient, it isn't wise to keep your god waiting."

Ford sighed and bowed his head in defeat. "Fine you win, we'll behave; just let us see them."

"Oh no, it's not that easy." Bill said. "You have to earn it. You see you two are outcasts, you must earn the right to continue living in this newfound order of mine. Otherwise you'll rot here and die."

"Okay fine." Stan answered. "What do we have to do?"

"Easy one last deal." Bill chuckled.

"What else could you possibly want from us?" For snapped.

"Why, Your undying loyalty of course." Bill said as if it was obvious. "Swear you'll never turn against me. That you'll never plot against my rule, and you may live here in the Fearamid with what's left of your family."

Ford bit his lip once more, the demon really had thought of everything this time around. 'No we'll find a way!' He swear. 'But for now...'

The Stan twins shared one last look before they both willingly offered the demon their hands.

Bill smiled, he had hoped they'd put up a fight, but then again he hadn't really gave the much room to do so. He took each of their hands in one of his own and they shook.

Ford shivered as the blue flames engulfed his hand, sealing their deal. He winced as he felt the new emotion of loyalty towards the monster, seeping into his bones.

Stan could feel it too! How were they going to stop Bill if they were now forced to be loyal to him?

Ford knew it seemed hopeless, but he had to stay optimistic, they would find a way; they had to believe that.

Bill released their hands, and with a snap of his fingers the cell doors opened. "Well come on out then, the twins have already started asking for you."

Ford forced a smile. "Then we best not be keeping them waiting." He stepped out of his cell and followed Bill as he led them out. Stan followed close behind his brother wondering what in the hell they were going to do now!
