~Dipper's POV~
I hugged my knees, rocking back and forth. You've gotta hold on to your sanity,man! It's the only thing you've got!
There was a lump in my throat that I couldn't swallow and tears constantly slipped down my cheeks.
The door to my room opened and Bill walked in with a smirk. "Time to test out your fire power."
"No," I said through gritted teeth.
Bill paused. "No?"
I glared at him. "You heard me. I said no. I'm got going to help you."
Bill was silent for a bit. Then, he slowly walked over to me. "If you were smart, you wouldn't disobey a direct order."
"Or what?" I snapped. "It's not like you're going to kill me."
Bill raised an eyebrow. "Killing you would be the cowardly thing to do."
I glared at him. "You can do anything you want to me. I don't care."
"You sound a lot like the Pine Tree from my dimention," Bill said. "And I don't like that attitude."
"So what? You gonna put me in time out or something?"
Bill shrugged with a smirk on his face. "Or something."

About an hour later, I was still sobbing on the floor. It felt like my back had been ripped entirely open and salt was rubbed in it. "I hope that will teach you a lesson in obedience, kid."
I tried to swallow the pain, but it didn't help. I heard Mabel yelling and crying the whole time, but I was too weak to even look up now.
For some reason, after about ten minutes or so laying there, it started to feel a little better. My breathing evened and I stopped crying. The pain was actually bearable. I put a hand tentatively to my back. The back of my shirt was pretty much soaked with blood. I grimaced. Then I stuck my hand under my shirt. All I could feel were scars, and even those were fading. I slowly stood up.
"D-dipper?"
I looked over at Mabel. She had tears slipping down her face. "I-I'm okay."
"Are you sure?" She asked.
I nodded, rubbing the part of my back just below the back of my neck. It hardly hurt now. "Yeah." I walked over to her. "I-I just wish that you didn't see that happen."
"Its okay," she said, as I sat down in front of her. She didn't meet my eyes. I looked around. Bill was nowhere to be seen. "I'm gonna get you out of here," I whispered to her."
"What? No!" Mabel said. "If you get caught-"
"I'll be fine," I said. "Get Stanley. Then you can come back for me." I moved to where Stan and Mabel's hands were tied together. Mabel's finger nails were chipped and there was dried blood on them. She'd tried to cut the ropes with them! I found the knot and untied it.
"Dipper," Stan said. "You can't-"
"Look out!" Mabel yelled.
I turned around just in time to see Bill grab me by the shirt. "I thought I made it clear that disobedience is not taken lightly with me."
I swallowed. "Y-you did."
"Then what's this?" He asked, his eye gleaming.
I tried to swallow my fear. "You never said anything about not letting them go."
Bill's eye grew red and he smacked me hard in the face. I let out a cry of pain and he threw me to the ground.
"Stop!" Mabel yelled.
