"Together As One"

Chapter 2

*Dream*

It was a bright sunny day, and I was lying down, staring at the sky on the roof of the Mystery Shack.  It was when I was around twelve its been the first peaceful dream I've had in years.

"Well well well look who's back in gravity falls. You've grown Pinetree" Pine...tree? The only person who's called me that is "Bill?" he yelled. "In the flesh Pinetree," Bill said, tipping his hat. "Ha, that's funny you don't have any flesh..." said Dipper, finally taking a look at Bill and realizing that he was in a human form. "H-how no When did you become human?!" asked Dipper taking in his appearance.

*Bill is human? And he doesn't look bad either. He has black hair, and his tips are blonde and perfect tanned skin and formal clothing. Why the hell does he look so good!?*

"I'm glad you think so, Pinetree," Bill said with a laugh. "D-did I say that out loud," Dipper said, covering his mouth and a flustered look appearing on his face. " No, but your thoughts were loud and clear to me, Pinetree," said Bill with a laugh.

"Gah, I'm off track. Why are you here, Bill!" Dipper yelled, "I came by to say hi, that's all. Seeing that not many greeted you today at all," Bill said, "Yeah, you only make it worse now scram I'm not making deals, so you have no purpose here," Dipper replied harshly.

"Why Pinetree such a sudden of choice," Bill said "At least hear me out Pinetree, "Bill asked "fine but be quick you Dorito," said Dipper in a snappy tone.

"Let me train you to use your Abilities and by doing so letting me live with you to learn how to be human" said Bill "What do you benefit from teaching me Bill" asked Dipper "I would want you to be my apprentice and not defy me in any way" Bill said "In turn Bill with whatever you do protect Gravity Falls from danger and all who enter Gravity Falls" said Dipper.

"Deal?" Dipper asked, placing his hand in the hand of the demon but not quite shaking it yet. Bill processed the information before bouncing on it "deal kid," Bill said with a broad grin.

When I awoke, I was greeted by Bill floating over me, smiling wickedly. "Morning Pinetree," Bill said. "And here I thought I'd have time before you arrived," said Dipper. "Aw Pinetree, I know you missed me and my looks," said Bill poking at Dipper's face.

"Yeah totally now hide or something I gotta get breakfast," said Dipper
"Sure, kid, I'll hide in your mindscape that way you take me with ya," said Bill "yeah, whatever," don't mess with me, Bill.

"Course not kid," Bill said. "God, this is just great," Dipper sighed.

I walk through the halls finding that Bill was silent to my surprise. And that everyone was already eating without me again. I walk in, grab some food, and say, "I'm heading out to the forest. I'll be back later," and with no response, I left.

"Tough crowd Pinetree makes me wonder why you even ask for there protection," Bill said with a laugh "There still my friends and family Bill even if they don't treat me like one of them, and it's only the second day back.." Dipper replied with a sigh.

I walk along the forest trail talking with Bill and eventually sitting down and taking in the scenery. "Say Pinetree, I've noticed that you got a tattoo of my wheel on your arm, and some runes," said Bill with an amused tone studying each rune and the wheel. "Yeah something to remember that summer by and runes I've memorized from Ford's journals," said Dipper

"Which reminds me, didn't you have a statue somewhere?" asked Dipper. "Yeah, but making that deal with me, Pinetree caused it to go away," Bill said, "it's like gone!?" Said dipper "yup," Bill said calmly "knowing Ford, he probably checks that thing and is gonna notice your missing," Dipper said, freaked out.

"Yeah, and I don't get your point, Pinetree" Bill chuckled "my point is he's gonna try and kill you again," I say, annoyed about how relaxed he is. "Tell me, Pinetree, you care why?" Bill asked

*Why do I care?*

"Because I wanna learn how to control abilities and stuff like that" Dipper said

Bill exits the mindscape appearing in his human form, stretching out his hand towards Dipper.

"Well, Pinetree, we can't train if you're just sitting there come on," Bill said with a grin. "R-right, let's get started," Dipper said, taking Bill's hand.

We practiced the basics, for instance, summoning a fire, flying, and defensive stuff. Bill said he was surprised about how fast I grasped the basics and everything that would usually take demons forever to master. Things like teleporting and mind reading. Bill and I got home around dinner time, but it was great to finally have some company all day I don't have that often and even if it's a crazed demon.

I entered the Shack and...

"Dipper, where have you been!? Everyone came over again to great us, and you weren't there to help me with my grand appearance," Mable whined. "Dipper, you made your sister cried the whole fucking time! How dare you leave her behind to worry as that" Stan yelled

"I was out mystery hunting in the forest updating my journal's. I'm sorry I wasn't here for you Mable I told everyone at breakfast I was leaving" Dipper said, "oh really? Guess your that invisible!  No one cared to notice you, god, you make everything about yourself! You are so selfish!" Mable screamed.

"You're calling me selfish!? I'm selfish!? You are more selfish than me! You are a bratty ass bitch that cares only about herself and what she wants to do or how she looks! While you treat me like some fucking slave, who should do everything for you! I'm your brother, and I'm done taking that shit from you. You probably have fun turning everyone against me again, don't you!?" Dipper yelled, hold his sister by the shirt so that there face to face.

Letting go of her, she dropped to the floor crying, and that's when Stan grabbed Dipper and shoved him away. "What the hell is wrong with you, kid," Stan yelled. "That's your sister, your yelling at!" he glared and spoke with anger.

Dipper looked at her on the floor, crying."That's not my sister anymore. Not ever since she first treated me like trash," Dipper said with poison dripping from his mouth then walking to his room. "Where do you think your going brat" Stan yelled
"My room where else," Dipper said

"Tough break kid," Bill said "Yeah, this family isn't the same as it was when you last saw us, Bill," Dipper said.

Time went on, and Ford came into my room.
