Dipper's POV

"I can't believe you guys actually named the cat Banana," Mabel laughed.

"Is it so unbelievable? It sounds like something you would do."

Mabel laughed and scratched the cat underneath his chin. Mabel's tail swished inside the tank sending a splash of water on top of banana. The cat hissed and ran off quickly.

"Oops. I guess I really am a fish out of water." Mabel sighed.

"What do you mean?"

"Well for one, I'm literally a fish out of water, and two, I just don't seem to fit in around here anymore."

"Mabel take a look, no one fits in in this town and that's what makes us special. Though Banana may not like it, we like having your company."

"Thanks bro bro."

"Anytime," I smiled. "Anytime."

Bill's POV

"It's been over a week, so where's my food?" I asked the guard, trying to act weak.

"I've decided to extend the time you won't be receiving food. A dirty creature such as yourself doesn't deserve any."

I observed him again, noticing that he himself was a demon, but a much lower class at that. Not even deserving of powers.

"Why don't you come in here and say that to my face?" I asked, inwardly grinning.

The guard didn't seem to be the kind to deny a challenge, so he unhooked his keys from his belt and placed them in the lock. Turning the lock he opened the door before slamming it shut again, the keys still jingling in the lock.

"You know what? I'm not going to let myself get satisfied by beating you up."

A scowl fell across my face, as I searched for the right word choice to egg him on. I needed him to open the door. I need him to attack me, so I could end his life without remorse, not that  I felt any anyways.

"You really think you can beat me? Fat chance." I mocked.

Again, he opened the door to the cell, but this time he stepped inside leaving it agape behind him. I grinned, this time letting it spread across my face. Then I waited because I wanted him to make the first move. I wanted to feel a little pain.

He watched me for a moment. Contemplating whether or not he should actually go through with it. After another minute he finally drew back his arm, launching it forward, and smacking me hard in the cheek.

I rose from the floor, proudly distinguishing my healed wound. My hand snaked its way around his throat before he could register what I was doing. I lit my hand on fire, singeing the skin around his throat.

"K-King Cipher," he chocked out. "I-I beg you f-for your forgiveness."

"So now I'm your king?" I growled, chocking him further.

"Y-You were always m-my king."

"It didn't seem so," I spat.

He attempted to beg for his life again, but I didn't want to hear it. I pulled him into the air, his feet dangling inches above the ground. His hands rose to mine, and tried to pry them from around his neck. I only squeezed tighter, watching the life force drain out of him.

Finally dropping him, I let him hit the floor, but he did not rise because he was already dead. Stepping over his corpse, I walked through the open cell door, finding Pyronica and Ford standing on the other side.

"Well hello," I grinned.

Ford looked away from the dead body within the cell while Pyronica smiled proudly at me.

"Let's go," Ford finally said, most likely unable to look at the body anymore.

I followed Pyronica and Ford through the almost endless dungeons. It was a long series of lefts and rights, and you were lucky if you didn't get lost.

"This way," Ford motioned.

"I know the way through my own dungeons," I chuckled. "I created them."

Ford nodded, and motioned for me to take the lead. Walking through the halls, I saw the other guards were either knocked out or laying dead on the floor. I grinned at Pyronica's handiwork. She was a marvelous demon.

"Where will we go when we get out?" I questioned, hoping at least one of them had a plan.

"We're taking back your thrown and then we're getting you home to your family."

Through all this chaos, all these weeks stuck here, I'd forgotten the real reason why I wanted to escape. All this time in the Nightmare realm is reverting me to my old ways, the ways of a chaotic ruler. I was forgetting. I could barely remember his smell or the feel of his lips against my own. The more I thought about it, the more terrifying it became.

"We're here!"

Dipper's POV

"Stop kicking!" I yelled.

Orion, Clover and Banana looked over with surprised faces. I rubbed my stomach trying to sooth the kicking but it didn't stop.

"Why are you yelling at your tummy?" Clover asked.

"The baby keeps kicking me," I whined.

"Let me talk to him."

"You can try."

Clover galloped over to where I was sitting and put her deer ears against my stomach. After a few moments she drew back and stared at my stomach.

"STOP KICKING!" She screamed.

I covered my own deer ears, fairly sure they were now ringing.

"Clover keep your voice down. Why are you always yelling. I thought you were the calm child."

Clover only shrugged and rejoined Orion on the floor. Banana leapt up on the couch and settled down on my lap, his head resting against my stomach. Finally-- and thankfully-- the baby stopped kicking me. I sighed, and looked towards Banana who was watching me tentatively.

"When is Bill coming back?" I asked the cat.

Meow meow meow

"Wow more than one meow that's shocking. So what? Three days?"

Silence

"3 hours?" I asked hopefully.

Silence

"Three weeks?"

Meow

"Ugh tell Bill to hurry up. This baby doesn't want to wait much longer."

Meow

"Thanks cat," I chuckled.

Meow
