You're Mine: A Monster Falls Fanfic

ChApTeR sEvEn

Dipper's POV

Gideon moved closer to me. I was cornered once again. Why was I always so weak? Always the one to get hurt. I couldn't even save Bill.

I bucked my unbroken hoof kicking him in the groin. I ran to Bill, and grabbed his body. I couldn't just leave him here, especially after he'd tried to save me.

I pulled him by his tailcoat and lifted him onto my back. I leapt off the stage and ran to the door, but Gideon beat me there.

He threw me to the ground, and threw Bill the other direction. On my last resort I grabbed the chair and broke off its leg. This would have to serve as a stake. Vampires do die from a stake to the heart, right? I mean technically anyone would.

Raising my hand I drove the stake at his chest. I wasn't fast enough. He caught it, and in turn stabbed it into my chest. My eyes widened in surprise and fear. It felt like someone lit a match in the middle of my body.

"DoNt ToUcH mY pInEtReE!!!"

I looked across the room to where Bill had been thrown. He didn't look like a human anymore, but rather an extremely angry 3D triangle. He wasn't dead!?

I smiled slightly. He hadn't died! Bill was alive! But I wouldn't be alive long enough to see it. Pulling the stake from my chest I threw it aside, and looked at my hand. It was covered in my blood, and some was seeping through my shirt and onto the floor.

A lone tear escaped my eye before I fell to the floor. My vision was terribly obscured, but I could still make out Bill's shape as he destroyed Gideon. I could still make out his triangular shape as he lifted me in his thin arms and carried me away.

"You're going to be alright, Pinetree. You're going to be alright."

If it weren't for my deer ears I wouldn't have picked up the sad tone of his voice. He almost sounded afraid. Why did he care for me this much? Why did a demon like him care for a petty Cervitaur like me?

•

It started with a dull pain in my legs. It wasn't terribly bad. But it spread to my chest and it felt like someone had relit a past fire.

I screamed out in pain. Bill was standing in front of me. He was still a triangle.

"Pinetree I'm almost done. Lie back down."

I fell back down on command, and soon the pain faded and I fell asleep.

•

"Pinetree? Are you awake yet? You've been sleeping for three days."

Three days!?

I opened my eyes quickly. The room was dimly lit and Bill sat beside me. He was in his human form again.

"H-how did you? I thought you were..?"

"I was testing you Pinetree. I was not actually dead. Thought I admit having my neck chewed on by that monstrous thing was very.." Bill shivered st his own words.

"But why did you test me?" I asked flabbergasted.

"I wanted to see what you would do in a situation like that. You surprised me Pinetree. I didn't expect to you to save me."
