Everything happened so fast. You didn't know what happened until you realized you were on the floor and Bill was on top of you. You assumed that he had tackled you to the ground. He looked at you and sighed in relief. Ford looked down at him in disapproval. He spoke through clenched teeth.
"What are you doing here?"
Bill just slowly stood and looked at him. "I'm stopping you from hurting (y/n)."

"She attacked me!"

"For good reason" Bill looked at Ford sternly

"She was angry. That's no reason to harm someone"

"She was angry at you. Seems like a good reason to me" Bill examines his now gloved hands as if he was inspecting his nails. They continue to go back and fourth, Bill keeping his cool as Ford seemed to get angrier and angrier. After a while more of them arguing, Bill scooped you up and started heading up the stairs. "You need to think about why she might have done it, Sixer. Then you might want to never do that again" He slowly turned and grinned t Ford. "Or I will make sure it's the last thing you ever do..." he walked you upstairs and took you into the porch. He looked at you with worry. "You alright?"

"Yeah. I'm fine. Thanks"

There was a few seconds of silence before Bill spoke up again

"So, um, I noticed the little grave in the forest. Was that..." he didn't know if he should say or not, but you answer his question and slowly nod. "Sixer...?" You nod again. Tears welling up in your eyes. "I-I'm so sorry." He slowly reached over and hugged you tight, practically squeezing the sadness out. You started to cry into his chest as he did this. A few minutes pass and you're just sitting there hugging each other as the sun slowly sets. You sniffle as you turn slightly and you both watch the sun go down.

(Time skip because I'm lazy)

Bill had taken you up to your room and said goodnight. The twins were already asleep, so you just lie there in your bed looking at the ceiling. (Haha. Just like during sleepovers.... ha) You couldn't help but think about how this day went from you thinking it was going to be great to a best friend dying. Honestly, you didn't know how to feel about it. It was almost as if you were emotionless. You had so many mixed emotions that they cancelled out each other almost. So you didn't feel.... anything. You thought about this for a while before you gave up on going to sleep. You quietly got out of bed to not wake anyone and threw on a sweatshirt before heading out towards the most dangerous part of the forest. You knew Bill told you to stay away from there, but you never knew why. Which only fueled your curiosity more. You grabbed a bag with some supplies just in case you got lost or something were to happen to you. You slung the bag over your shoulder and walked out of the shack and into the forest. You were silent and listening for wolves or anything that could be a possible threat, which caused you to be a little jumpy since it was so eerily quiet. You passed (c/n)'a cave and it was so unfamiliar now that you couldn't even tell that it was. The crystals that used to give out that warm glow were off completely, like they never glowed in the first place. You continued forward refusing to stop until you got there. You stopped as you noticed the grass under your feet seemed to slowly switch to yellow. The dead grass crunched under your feet and you looked at the tall trees. They were now all birch trees. The spots on them all seemed to be like eyes. Staring right through you. You gulped as you continued forward. You noticed that the farther you went the darker it got, so you took out a flashlight and flipped it on. You had been in the dangerous part of the forest for half an hour now and nothing bad happens or even showed up. You started to feel like Bill was trying to hide something from you. You decided to wander instead of continuing in the same direction. It was risky and you could get lost, but it was going to be worth it. You were sure of it.

After a while of wandering. You saw what looked like a hand sticking out from behind a tree. It was outstretched with a hand out seeming to make a gesture to shake it. You shined your light in it and walked around the tree to see a statue of...... Bill? You stared at it for a bit before reaching out and touching the cold stone arm. You looked at the triangular shape and all the small details. You would have to ask Bill about this later. For now you decided to have some fun with it. You knew how much Bill loved to make deals so you laughed to yourself as you grabbed the stone hand and shook it. You didn't expect anything to happen, but you were surprised as it did do something. You let go of the hand and a song seemed to play from the inside of it. (Play song at beginning) It was..... nice actually. You sat down next to the statue and leaned against a nearby tree. After it played once you caught on and hummed with it. It seemed to carry all of your cares away. The music slowed to a stop and you heard a slight clicking sound. You ooked at it curiously and went to grab the outstretched hand again when you saw that the eye to the statue had seemed to crack on one side. You felt the crack with your fingers and it opened more. You realized it was a small door, almost like a vault. You were pretty sure you overheard Dipper talking about a statue like this and how he playfully shook its hand but he said nothing happened. You slowly open the door and inside was a small music box and a necklace with a "cipher wheel" on it. You noticed the music box had a key hole in it as well. Except it want a normal key hole, it was a where a circle seemed to belong. You looked at the medallion and thought that it was the key to open it. You didn't want to take the stuff now in fear that the Pines of Bill will find out. So you left the items in it and pushed the small door closed until you heard a click and it looked normal again. You looked at the statue and went to shake the hand again because you wanted to hear the melody again, but was afraid it would open again, so you didn't. You stood up and placed a hand on top of the statue before taking out a compass you had packed and heading back towards the shack. You were definitely happy with your finding, you're curiosity finally fulfilled after all that time.
