Zero Falls: Season One

Cipher's Reign-Part Two

Jill admired her face in a small hand mirror.

Well technically, it wasn't her face, but a cute face nevertheless.

Jill didn't expect Gideon to fight back against her mind control when she had possessed him, it appeared she had underestimated him. But in the end, the young psychic was finally her puppet.

Gideon's face smirked, when Jill thought about how easy it was to manipulate those fools. Mortals were predictable, as they were arrogant.

"So Jill, do you have them?"

Jill turned around, she hadn't noticed her brother just walked in. "We couldn't get Dipper or Mabel...But, we got the Day Guardian, as while as some earthbound Guardians and a raven girl."

Kill smiled wickedly. "Great, where are they?"

"Somewhere secure," Jill answered. "Don't even dare kill them, they're still of use to us."

"Yeah, yeah," The Red Demon dismissed. "Can you show me to them, sis?"

Jill sighed, vanishing the mirror in her hand, and beckoning her brother down the hall. They strolled forward, passing endless grey walls, and showered in the flickering dim lights in the ceiling.

"What is this place, anyway?" Kill questioned, looking around.

"It used to be an old asylum that was shut down," Jill replied. "By now, it was used for tours, but it's a surprise what a little renovating can do."

"I suspected that, I still hear the satanic screams of the convicts," Kill sighed, blissfully. "Music to my ears."

"You'll be hearing more screams, soon," Jill replied, calmly.

Kill raised a brow at her. "By the way, how long are you gonna possess that pipsqueak's body?"

"Until we get Bill on our side. Why do you ask?"

"I dunno, since you have a thing for him, I consider this to be pretty weird...and invading."

"Don't be gross," Jill shot back. "Also, I didn't complain when you possessed Robbie."

"Oh come on, we were having fun," Kill insisted. "I'm sure Cupid enjoyed it."

"We'll see about that, once I'll let him strangle you."

"Ooh, please do," Kill smiled.

Jill glared at him. "Again, super gross."

After a while of walking, they finally reached their destination. A heavy metal door. Jill snapped Gideon's fingers, and almost immediately, the door opened by itself. There was a deafening whine that emitted from the rusty hinges, and the two walked in without hesitance. They entered a room, and at the other side, were the captives bleeding from arrow wounds, separated from the Demons as a row of metal bars lined in front of them. The bars had glowing blue symbols on them, causing an electric current to swirl around them.

Kill sauntered towards them, before pausing a inch away from the bars, static brushed the tips of his hair. He regarded the trapped group with an amused smile.

"All powerful, huh?" Kill chuckled, mercilessly. "What a joke."

He directed his gaze to Robbie. "Nice to see you again, Cupid."

Robbie's gaze burned with hatred, and he pressed himself against the wall. Kill's eyes then darted to the side, where they landed on Pacifica.

"Just my luck, another pretty face," Kill said, flirtatiously. "I love the aesthetic you have here, Princess."
