Dipper

Why did they want me? I wondered as the guards slowly opened the door, revealing a small room. I scanned it. It was pretty simple. Dull grey walls and three chairs in the middle of the room. One metal and the other two was wooden. There were no window. The only thing that lit the room was a lightbulb on the ceiling. The possible way to escape was through the door, but it was too risky.

The guards let me sit on a metal chair and locked my wrist and legs to the chair. I couldn't believe the fact that I wasn't able to move freely. I groaned, feeling uncomfortable. After finishing their job, the guards left the room, leaving me with the agents.

Silence filled the room.

I glanced at the agents. Agent Powers and Trigger were sitting calmly on their chairs, their face emotionless. They each had a notepad on their lap.

Agent Powers was the one to break the silence. He cleared his throat and said, "Ok, Dipper. We're going to ask you few questions and we want you to answer each of them honestly." I nodded.

The agent then flipped open his note, and asked, "How did you burn the Northwest Mansion and why?"

I shrugged. "I don't know. Why didn't you burn it? Wanna be possesed by a demon?"

The agent didn't answer back and continued writing on his notepad. I squinted my eyes to see and could only make out a few. "rude", "imagination" and "insane." None of them were good.

The next question was asked by Agent Trigger. "Any plans for world domination?"

"Want me to make one?" I asked back another question and thought for a moment.

If I try to make one, it might really turn out to be successful. I could really rule the world. I mean, with all my powers, I could be invincible! World domination would be a piece of cake! Wait, what was I thinking? I didn't want to rule the world. I don't need to. But ruling the world sounded so good ...

"Is there any need to wear contacts?" Agent Trigger asked.

Contacts? I was confused, but then I realised he was talking about my yellow eyes. "I don't know what you're talking about," I lied.

The agents wrote something more on their notepads and continued, "What's that on your arm?"

I looked at my arm where the cipher wheel was tattoed on. They would think I'm crazy if I tell them the truth. I would rather be in a jail than going to a mental hospital. I shrugged and replied, "Tattoo."

"What tattoo?"

A thought popped into my head and I blurted out without thinking. "Dorito."

"What dorito?"

"Uh ... cheese?"

"What cheese?"

"Cheddar." This was weird.

The agent then wrote something down on their notepad.

"Did you freakin' believe me?" I asked, surprised the agent really bought that.

Suddenly, Agent Trigger threw a punch at my face, leaving me with a black eye, and slightly bloodied mouth. Then my chair turned into a metal bed. What the hell was that? I struggled to escape, but the locks prevented my arm and leg to move freely. My whole body ached.

"ENOUGH!" yelled Agent Powers, coming up to me. "Stop fooling around and answer me HONESTLY!"

He slapped my face. I was shocked by the sudden force.

"Do you feel pain?" He shouted. I didn't answer, my face facing downwards.

"DO YOU FEEL PAIN?" He shouted again. His time even louder.

I raised my head slowly and replied, "What do you think, butthead?" I smiled.

I guess I reached his anger point, because his face reddened of anger and looked ready to burst. He raised his hand and pointed me with his watch. He was going to zap me with his electricity string from his watch, I realized in horror.

The agent then clicked a button and the electricity string came out zapping me. I screamed, glaring at the agents with pure hatred and anger.

Then I laughed.

"Did you think I was lying?

I said I'm evil without even trying,

Already dead so I'm not scared of dying.

You think you got me pegged

you must be kidding."

I started to levitate, my feet was not touching the ground anymore. My eyes glowed bright yellow and I felt the temperature dropping at an alarming rate. The agents stood there horrified. Trigger hurriedly ran to the corner of the room and hit the alarm.

"Bad little boy, yes I'm bad, but not little.

Tie me to this bed and think I'm brittle.

I'm hard, I'll crush you like a beetle"

Agent Powers pulled out his gun and pointed at me. I snapped my fingers and the gun disappeared into thin air.

"No puppet strings can hold me down

So patiently I watch this town

Abnormal soon will be thenorm

Enjoy the calm before the storm"

After that, I raised my hand and blasted the stupid agents away, making a giant hole in the wall. This was my chance! The alarms kept ringing as I stepped outside of the room and made an escape.

An escape without a trance.

No one can stop me now.

Thanks to Pixie again for helping me with the Dorito Tattoo part. And I do not own the lyrics, it's from Adventure Time, Marshall Lee's Bad Little Boy rap. The last two sentences were made by me and Pixie though.
