Tale of The Cipher Twins

Chapter 6

Bill's POV

I was walked around the MindScape aimlessly. The forest that it was often seen to me as. I didn't know why, I guess it was because of my love for the woods or it was because of the fact it was so hard to navigate. I kept walking for what seemed to be hours when, I felt the cold of death and hate go threw my body. "Starlin!"

She laughed and showed herself, a woman with long flowing blue hair, stunning orange eyes, a purple magician's outfit with a longer back, red, what seemed like underwear, green shoes and a yellow bow tie. She was laughing at me.

"You've got a lot of nerve to come to me like this." I growled.

"You've got a lot of nerve to breath Cipher." She smirked. "I guess you'll have to die again." She threw a knife at me. Immediately, I summoned my cane sword after it made my cheek bleed.

She held a knife between each of her fingers and lunged at me, I blocked her. We struggled to keep her off me me but she disarmed me and started to slash at me. I kept backing up, but she kept hitting me. I had cuts all on my face, arms chest and some on my leg. She jabbed and only landed a few times. I was bleeding badly. I didn't think it could get worse until, something, happened.

A portal. But not any portal, FORD'S portal! "Oh shit!" With out seeing, she shoved me threw making my physical body become solid and something humans could now see. I was painting and short of breath here, my body was a REAL body now. I was bleeding to death. I could barely move. She stepped out.

"Who is this audience here to see you die brother?" She stepped on my ribs and I let out a blood curating scream of pain.

I looked to see who it was. "Bill!" PineTree!? Shooting Star, Sixer, and Crescent Symbol!?

"Oh!? So this is the family you keep out of my hands? So, how about I let you see your failures all over again, how does that sound Bill?" She started to walk over to them.

Something in me burned, I got up immediately and ran over in front of them. Ford had his gun at the ready. "You don't touch this family!" I screamed and my eye patch fell off, activating the power I had locked away.

She was casted into the MindScape threw this power and I cover my eye immediately. "Bill! What, was that?" Mable asked. I tied the patch as tight as I could.

"Oh... you know... stuff..." I painted and fell forward. I fell into someone. PineTree.

"You really did just prove yourself Bill." I smiled at him. Then it was dark.

Dipper's POV

I tried to pick Bill up myself but it was hard. Of all people, Grunkle Ford, came and helped me get Bill up the stairs. He looked awful, cloths ripped to shreds. Cuts all over, I felt bad for him but at the same time, I guess karma came around but in an awful way.

We laid him on the couch and changed him into something else so Mable could fix and wash the cloths. Just a yellow turtle neck and black yoga pants. He was out cold from the fight.

I sat with him and watch him, wondering why he would defend us the way he did. I wondered all night.
