Giving Into Your Demons - Bipper

-Chapter 3-

Where.. Where am I? I glance at my surroundings, taking in the open area. Trees. I can only see.. trees. I'm finally starting to put two and two together.

The forest. I'm in the forest. But why? Where?
My head turns in every direction, trying to comprehend what's happening. There's only trees, trees taller than any building I had ever seen. My breaths came out in puffs, it was cold... freezing actually. I knew what I had to do, but I was scared to do it... I had to walk into the forest, blindly, and try to find my way out.

After what had seemed like forever, it all started to look familiar. The way the trees bent, and the curves in the path... but I didn't know why. I couldn't even remember who I was.

I stumbled through the woods, the forest guiding me, in a way I couldn't explain. I could hear something whispering to me, speaking to me. Maybe the wind? I wasn't sure, but t was taking me somewhere. I hoped that it was somewhere safe.

'Mystery Shack'

I came face to face with an old building, it was worn out, and the 's' on the sign even started to fall off.. I found myself thinking that it could really hurt someone. But.. who?

I was drawn to it, I don't know if it was the sheer Mystery of it all, or I knew this place. But, the closer I got the more I started to remember.

Mable
Waddles
Gruncle Stan
Great Uncle Ford
Soos
Bill.

Then it hit me, like a blow to the chest, it left me breathless. Bill was with my family, and it's way too quiet for the Mystery Shack.

Everything went numb, and I was running fast. Faster than I knew I could run, my lungs burned and every breath felt like fire. My legs ached, and my palms were sweaty, but my mind was processing everything so fast I didn't care. I needed to get to my family, I needed to know that they were okay

I burst through the door full force, knocking the rest of what I had out of me, I tumbled to the floor, my knees weak and my lungs ablaze.

Mable?

Quiet.

G-gruncle Stan?

Nothing.

Great uncle Ford!

I was alone.

Soos!

I was only greeted by silence, a never ending silence. A silence I wish would stop.

Guys.. C'mon.. This isn't funny!

Please.

Haha! Laugh it up, you guys got me!

Please..

Guys?...

Please talk to me.

"Pinetree! You finally made it back!!" With a glare as fiery as the sun, I turned to be face to face with the one thing I hated most.

Bill Cipher.

"What took you so long? I've been waiting ages!" The anger inside me had built up for far too long and I tackled him to the ground, wresting for dominance. He pinned me to the ground, hands firmly around my neck.

What did you do to my family?!

I hissed and struggled to regain dominance, as he smirked and tightened his grip. "I got rid of them, there's no use for them anymore."

Bill! You piece of shit! What have you done?!

He smirked and leaned into my ear "Don't bother struggling." My breath hitched in my throat, a burning sensation spreading all over my body, the world was going black. I couldn't breath, he was going to kill me.

"Your mind is mine, Dipper."
