Just why? (Billdip)

Chapter 14

Mabel's POV:

I lay on my bed, staring at the ceiling. It's been two days since I shot Bill. I hope he died in a very painful way. Soon Dipper will come again... But what if he can't leave the Mindscape just like that? Maybe he needs to come through the portal. How can I help him to come back? I need to go down to Grunkle Ford's lab to be sure!

I stood up and went down to the vending machine without anyone noticing me. After all, it's 2 a.m. Even my two Grunkles were asleep. I put the code in the vending machine and went down to the portal room. And now what should I do? All this nerdy stuff is Dipper's speciality, not mine. Right! What would he do if he was here? Hum... I thought about it, pacing the room and suddenly an idea came to my mind. He would search into Grunkle Ford's stuff in his study!

I ran to his study and saw he had now a wall full of TV screens. I came nearer and on the TV screens were showed records from everywhere in the house. There are even records of the portal room! Maybe I can find some hints of how to open the portal thanks to it. I typed on the console trying to find the right record. I can't find the record where Grunkle Ford opens the portal... Hey isn't that when I shot Bill? I'm pretty cool! And is Dipper glowing yellow again? That's cute! And what's that under him? It's a pretty nice design, I should copy it!

I grabbed paper of Grunkle Ford's desk and a pencil. After I ended it, I looked at it fully. It looks pretty cool, especially with this pine tree in the middle. Wait a pine tree? Isn't that Dipper's symbol on Bill's wheel? That can mean only one thing! Dipper is really obsessed with his hat! Or maybe this is his summoning circle as a demon. That could be it too... I should try to summon him to see if it's that!

I went again upstairs to our room. Once there I took a piece of chalk and started drawing the circle on the floor. Once I finished I took some of my special pink candles I made not so long ago and lit them. Nothing happened. Why isn't something happening? I should have know that it's just a stupid design without any real meaning! Now how can Dipper come back?!

"Dipper..." I mumbled "Please come back! I need you! I'm even ready to make a deal!" I said on the brink of tears. Just as I said the word 'deal' the circle began to glow.

"Did I hear the word deal?" said a familiar voice. I looked at the blue thing that had appeared in the circle. Is that a Pinetree?

"Dipper?" I asked full of hope.

Dipper's POV:

Not too long ago I was with Bill in our house, sleeping and recovering from our wedding and now what do I see? My own overly selfish sister! How could my day be better? I looked down to see I was in my bright blue Pinetree form. Great, she won't see my dark eyes! It's perfect! Now let the show begin.

"Mabel? Is that really you?" I faked a voice full of surprise and sadness.

"Oh Dipper! I missed you so much!" My old me would have missed you too. But unfortunately for you, I'm not like that anymore.

"Me too Mabel!" I said and I went forward to her to hug her but I was stopped by the summoning circle. Right, I can't step out as long as a deal isn't made. She saw I couldn't come and spoke.

"Dipper? Why can't you come out of this circle? And why are even a blue floating Pinetree?" She asked with a little suspicion in her voice. Quick I need a lie.

"You know I was too long in the Mindscape. I lost my physical human body and now look at me" I said with sadness. She will buy it... unless Sixer told her about the Nightmare Realm.

"But Grunkle Ford said it only happens to bad demons who were in the Nightmare Realm" She said again suspicious.

"You know Grunkle Ford never was there so how could he know?"

"That's true... Maybe you're right! You can't be wrong, right? You are my brother after all!"

"That's right I'm your brother. But Mabel I can't come back at your side as long as I don't have a physical form you know..." I heard her think: 'So Bill is really dead! I did it!'. What an idiot.

"Can I help you?" said Mabel with concern in her voice. Concern about how she will get what she wants.

"You could open again the Portal so I could slip through" Her face seemed to brighten up but then again she was suspicious. Why are you always so suspicious about me? Oh right, she should be. I'm an evil demon! I laughed mentally.

"But I can't be sure that you will stay with me once I do that." She looked straight into my eyes with some hope.

"We could make a deal to be sure of it." I smirked mentally. Right where I wanted her.

"What kind of deal?"

"You open the portal for me without our Grunkles knowing it and in exchange, I stay with you until your death." I lit my hand with yellow fire and it could go through the barrier of the summoning circle. I looked at her and saw she was hesitating. "Don't worry it won't burn you. I would never hurt you, you know? I'm your brother after all." She looked at me, then my hand and finally she shook it. We will be freed sooner than I expected it! Thanks you stupid girl! Are you really 21 years old? Never mind let's go through this barrier. I went forward and I could float out of it. I went near her, she seemed to have some kind of problem.

"Hum Dipper?"

"Yes?" I said with fake concern about her.

"There might be a little problem with this deal."

"What?" I nearly had a heart attack. Did she find out what I want to do?

"Hum... I don't know how to open the portal." Don't make me worry like that!

"That's not a problem! I will guide you and you will open it! Nothing is easier than that!" I tried to be reassuring and full of happiness. Arf she is really dumb! Is she really my sister? Seems like I gained all neurons when we were born. "So shall we?" I indicated the door and she nodded.

We sneaked out of the room and everyone else was still asleep. In human time it would be 3 a.m. Maybe it's normal for them to sleep. Did I sleep so much when I was human? Right, I was a weakling. I laughed again mentally and we were in the portal room. I explained to her which levels she should put down, what coordinates to use and the portal opened.

"So I need to go to the Mindscape right now. Are you okay with it?" I hate to ask but I can't just leave like that because of the deal. But soon it will end.

"It's okay! But you will come back right?"

"Don't worry about it, sis! I will be here again very quickly before you even notice I'm gone!" I tried to wink but with one eye I'm not sure she got it. I quickly teleported to the Mindscape.

"Bill!" I yelled through the house.

"Yes Pinetree?" He yelled back from our bedroom.

"We need to go! The Pines opened again a portal!" I yelled again and this time Bill teleported right before me. He grabbed my hands and looked into my eyes.

"Are you sure you want to go there? I know you will be all-powerful and all, and this time nothing will stop us but are you sure of you?"

"I'm sure! So now let's go!" I dragged Bill behind our house where the portal opened. I still hold Bill's hand, we looked at each other and we went both through it.

"Finally! We are free again!"

A/ N: Again I want to thank you all amazing readers for all this. The story is nearing the end but I have a lot of ideas for other fanfictions and maybe a sequel if you want one. So thank you all!
