You Thought Wrong

Race you

*Bills Point of View

I knew Pinetree would come to his senses. It was only a matter of time. I pull back the spikes lowering down on Red. I might need her later.

"Whats you offer kid?" I ask. He's shaking. I wave my hand and cause his chains to fall away. I turn Red to an amber statue.

"Uh. I. Uh..." He stumbles on his words. Pathetic meatsack.

"Well? Spit it out already. I might have all day but Red's gonna start melting soon." I say. My eye becomes a clock. He staggers back. I haven't scared someone this bad in about 30 years but Sixer got over it in the multi-verse. It sure feels good to be feared. Like Fez said last summer. Something about love or appreciation but then that fear is priceless. I can actually relate with him quite often.

"Here is my deal. You can't hurt Mabel. You can't hurt Stan. You can't hurt Ford. You can hurt anyone on the list I scratched into the floor in here. It's most of Gravity Falls. All of our previous deals go null. They don't work. None. Zip. Nada. You cant torture anyone. You have to put back everything you did this summer including lil' Gideon. If you do, I'll give you the location of the grove." He says. He is pale and weak but still stands as if he's proud.

"No." I say. I intense the sunlight and melt Red. Her face frozen in relief. That's a new one I think, its usually terror. Then again, she thought she was just spared. She must have just thought wrong. Yeah, I'm staring at you 4th wall.

"I still get to keep you as a slave Pinetree. I'll agree to the rest." I say. He looks at the pile of melted amber.

"I'll fix Red too. Deal?" I ask him. He nods his agreement. Before I even extend my arm I search his brain for loopholes. They're fun if they work for me. Not so much if they don't. In his mind is just a string of sappy memories. I shut myself out as fast as possible. I hate those.

I dissolve the walls of the tank I've been keeping him in. My 23 senses are picking up a lot if fear. I realize he is about to pull back on the deal. But I'm getting that equation if it kills me. Which it won't. Might kill him though. I lunge forwards and grab his retreating hand.

Red melts but in reverse until she is a statue which glimmers in a way Shooting Star would love. Then shes normal again. She sees Pinetree and exclaims her opinion. To late! Gideon steps out of the basement, followed by a group of well earned prisoners. Everything looks normal. Except Gideons hair. Pinetree did that, partially. It is SOOO going to be permanent. I love it so much!

I'm sure Gideon will fix it, but untill then I get to enjoy it like this. A whole town left alone for the plant, then quickly the dimension. Pinetree sure doesn't drive a very hard bargain. This group will probably run for the hills and tell Sixer where I'm at. I'll have to make a deal with him so he doesn't try to stop me. Good thing I have Pinetree as leverage. Until then I have to get rid of all these meatsacks.

I teleport them all to the center of town. Hopefully those stupid Pines will not realize they can leave until its too late. I take Pinetree to the top of the dome, holding him by his collar. He screams in surprise. Might want to work on warning people before teleportation.

I set him down on a floating chair. He clutches it tightly. I mentally add his phobia of heights to my collection. He is scared of some weird Sh*t, let me tell ya. Don't even get me started on the thing with squirrels.

"Where is it Pinetree?" I ask him. A smile worthy of me spreads across his face. I don't like it.

"Its not in Gravity Falls. In fact, its in its antipode. If you dug a hole though the earth from the center of Gravity Falls you'd end up right in the grove. Not that you should care. After all. You should be heading back to hell where you came from. Admit it Bill. I bested you. You can't touch my friends or my family. I win. You loose!" He shouts over the wind. My 13th sense in basically a lie detector. He's telling the truth. You've seen me mad. This is beyond that.
