Bill's P.O.V.

I curled my lips in annoyance at this kid. Who did he think he was? Some big-shot full of himself that could boss me around, that's who. Well, he is sorely mistaken and in for a rude awakening.

     "What would you like to discuss, my dashing little Pine Tree?" I asked innocently, already knowing the answer.

"You already know, Bill! Don't play dumb!" Pine Tree walked closer to me, getting in my personal space. Some nerve he had. "Stay away from (Y/N) or else!"

"Is this the part I say, or else what?" I questioned, unamused. I wasn't scared of him, what could be possibly do to me? Dork me out of existence? Shower me in fanboy knowledge?

"Listen up, Cipher! You won't lay a finger on (Y/N) if you know what's good for you!"

I raised my eyebrow. "What's good for me?" I chortled. Slamming Pinetree on a pine tree, I breathed, "How about what's good for you?"

Your P.O.V.

"Dipper, please be okay." You muttered. You and Mabel were walking around the woods, looking for Dipper.

     The atmosphere was quite creepy. There was eerie fog and strange crunching noises to accompany it. The trees stood tall, and the shadows played tricks. It felt like a slasher movie where someone-or something would jump out of the shadows to murder.

     Mabel shone the flashlight in all directions. "Dip-stick is fine. He does this all the time. Besides," she smiled knowingly at me. "You're worried about him, that must mean you LIKE HIM!"

     You were glad it was dark so Mabel wouldn't see you blushing. "D-don't be stupid! O-of course I don't!"

     "Okay, whatever you saaaayyy~" Mabel teased.

     A thud resounded through the forest. We looked at each other. "What was that?!?!" You squeaked.

Mabel looked towards the noise. "Sounds like trouble. And that means my brother is there." She grabbed your hand and started running toward the noise.

Dipper's P.O.V.

     I felt the tree connect with my body. I groaned in pain. "How about what's good for you?" Bill mimicked.

     Trying to stand up, Bill kept me pinned to the tree. He traced the outline of my face with his index finger. "Tsk, tsk. Don't you know lying is bad?" Bill suddenly looked up, looking alarmed. Growling, he begrudgingly let go. "This conversation isn't over."

Confused, I turned my attention to the crunching of branches. (Y/N) and Mabel came running to the site.

"Dipper!" They exclaimed as they ran toward me. They wind was knock out of me as they wrapped me in a bear hug.

Your P.O.V.

"Oh-my-gosh-Dipper-I'm-so-sorry-I'm-such-an-idiot!" You exclaimed. You weren't hugging anymore and took a second look at him. "Are you okay?!" You asked.

     He looked shaken-up. His hair was wild, and his back side seemed to be dirty. His warm smile wasn't fazed, though. "Yeah, I'm fine. Don't worry about it."

     Mabel had let go of Dipper and looked between both of us. She cracked a smile. "Dawwwww! You two were worried about each other, that's so cute!"

     "I don't find it cute." We all turned to the fourth voice, who's presence was forgotten until this point.

     "In fact, I find it revolting." Bill looked irritated. He did not look like the playful guy I saw at the amusement park only a few hours ago.

Not knowing how to react, everyone stood there for a moment. Mabel found her voice first. "What the heck did you do to my bro-bro?!"

Dipper stood in front of the both of us and simply gave Bill the death glare.

I hesitantly took a step forward. By this point the twins started shouting and threatening Bill. He did not look at them and kept his eyes locked on mine. It was difficult to meet them.

"Are you even listening to us?" Mabel shouted as she threw a twig at Bill. The twig missed its target by at least three feet.

Bill's brow twitched. "Enough! I don't care about your whimpering!" He yelled. Dipper and Mabel started floating in the air, surrounded in a deathly blue flame.

I finally summoned some courage. Walking straight up to Bill, I demanded "Put them down!"

He chuckled. "Why would I want to do that? They are simply unnecessary back ground noise." As he said this, they started floating higher to where the branches on the trees were thicker.

     Horrorstruck, I yelled, "Stop it! Your nothing but a bully and a liar! Let them down, I hate you!"

     Bill faltered for a brief moment. "Y-you hate me?" He looked distraught as he took a moment to stare at the ground. It was one of those moment where everything went in slow motion.

Dipper and Mabel fell to the ground. "This isn't over." Bill said angrily as he looked at Dipper. He disappeared in the shadows.

I stared at the shadows where he disappeared before running over to assist Dipper and Mabel.

Dipper's P.O.V.

     All of us were safely back at the shack. The clock read 10:00. In unison, we breathed a sigh of relief from the recent events.

     (Y/N) instructed us to sit down on our beds to rest so she could get first aid. We obeyed.

     Mabel and I weren't dropped from a high distance, so there won't any broken bones or severe damage. Sure a couple of medium size bruises and cuts, but we got lucky. Honestly, I would be happy to walk it off, but if (Y/N) wanted to treat me who was I to stop her?

     She went over to Mabel's bed first and starter patching her up. "You guys are probably going to have some bruises in the morning." She winced as she saw one of Mabel's bigger cuts. "And as your self-appointed doctor, my prescription is rest and many sweets."

     She started waking over to my side. Her expression however, wasn't as caring as when she was treating Mabel. She still carefully wrapped a few cuts, but she was silent until the end.

     "Thank you." I quietly said.

     She didn't return the smile. Mabel was also giving me a stern look from the other side of the room. They exchanged glances.

     "Look, Dipper. Me and Mabel want some answers. What exactly happened? And don't even think about leaving anything out. I can smell lies." She gave me a shrewd smile. "For I am the queen of them."
