Chapter 13- Kareoke Night

-Dipper's Pov -It's around 7pm. Mabel and Wendy where in the kitchen making something. Whatever it is, it smells delicious. Soos and Stan are talking while I'm sitting with Ford, waiting for Bill. He said he needed to get changee because his clothes were covered in blood. It's taking him a long time...

"I'm going to check on Bill." I say to Ford as I stand up.

Ford nodded.

I walk upstairs. I heard a scream .I opened the door to see Bill lying on the floor. His back was covered with blood. He had the Cipher Wheel tattooed to his back. He has triangles on his arms too.

"Bill!" I cried. I ran towards him.

"Pine Tree...." Bill stared at me.

"Are you okay? !" I picked him up. He was cold.

Bill nodded. " My back...pain... cold..."

I grabbed some blankets from my bed and wrapped them around him. I put more bandages on him. Poor Bill...

"How did this happen?"

"Demon... deal... failed..." Bill breathed heavily. "Punish... journals... none..."

I was confused about what he said. Demon? Deal? Failed? Punishment for having none of the journals?!"It's okay Bill... I'll protect you from them."

Bill shook his head. He coughed up a bit of blood. " Too strong for you... I can't even..."

I held his closer to me. I don't want to lose you ever Bill... I love you.

Bill smiled. "I'm... I'm not going anywhere..." Flames bursted from around Bill. When they where gone, Bill was healed. "See?"

I sighed. " Thank God..."

We walked out of my room and saw that Mabel and Wendy had made biscuits that looked like... our signs. A Pine Tree. A Shooting Star. An ice bag. A question mark. Stan's hat. Ford's glasses. A llama. Robbie's stitched heart. A star. And Bill. I smiled. I have the best friends and family in the whole world.

"You do." Bill smiled.

I opened my arms. "Emotional sibling hug?"

Mabel nodded. "Sincere emotional sibling hug."

Mabel and I hugged.

"Pat pat." We said in time.

Bill and Wendy laughed.

"How long did that take to practice?" Wendy asked.

"Not long." Mabel smiled. She held the tray out to me and Bill, but Bill shook his head.

"Demons don't need to eat, but thanks anyway, Shooting Star." Bill said.

"Oh come on, Bill!" I insisted. "Just one bite?"

Bill sighed. " Oh, alright." He chose one from the tray. It was the Pine Tree. "Thank you." He took a bite, chewed it, then smiled. "Hey, this human stuff isn't that bad!"

I smiled. "I guess even demons like to eat." I chose the Bill one as you can guess.

Stan tapped the microphone. "Is this thing working?!"

"Yep!" Wendy yelled. "And now we can't hear anything!"

Stan ignored Wendy's smart comment. "Who's going first?"

"Wendy? You and me?" Mabel asked.

"Sure!"

The two ran up and grabbed a microphone. The music to 'Stronger Than You a Sans parody' started playing.

(Key: Mabel Wendy Both)

"Turn around kid, It'd be a crimeIf I had to go back on the promise that I made for you, so don't step over that lineOr else friend, you're gonna have a bad time.

But kids like you don't play by the rulesAnd guys like me aren't easy to be played for fools

Let's go, let the room get chillerLet's go DIRTY BROTHER KILLER

Go ahead try to hit me if you're ableGuess you've figured out that mercy's off the tableI can tell you're getting really sick of tryingBut I think you're just mad you keep dying

You're not gonna winWe'll be here togetherFighting in this judgment hall foreverI know you just reset each time I beat yaBut I'll always be right back here to meetcha

I know you're made of love love love love

This is where it stopsThis is where it endsIf you want to get past me well you better try againBut no matter how I stall youYou don't give up your attackDo you just like the feeling Of your sins crawling on your back?

Go ahead and try to hit me if you're able!You should know by now that mercy's off the table.Think you can spear me like some pawn?Well you didn't spear my brother so get dunked on!I know you made my friends all disappear.But everything they care about is why I'm here.I am their mercy.I am their vengeance.I am determination!

I know you're made of loveBut I think im stronger than you!"

Everyone started clapping, even Bill.

"Not bad." He said.

"I'm next," I say.

"Good luck, Pine Tree." Bill wished me.

"Thanks."

I selected a song, and as the music starts to play, I feel like nothing else mattered.

I thought that'd I've been hurt before.But no one's ever left me quite this sore.Your words cut deeper than I knife.Now I need someone to breathe me back to life.

Gotta feeling that I'm going underBut I know that I'll make it out alive. If I quit calling you my lover, and move on.

You watch me;Bleed until I can't breathe, shaking.Fighting onto my knees,And now that I'm without your kisses, I'll be needing stitches!Tripping over myself, achingBegging you to come help, and now that I'm without your kisses I'll be needing stitches!

Just like I'm marked onto a flameOh you let me in I couldn't sense the painYou're bitter heart cold to the touchNow I'm gonna reap what I sole I'm left seeing red on my own

Gotta feeling that I'm going underBut I know that I'll make it out alive. If I quit calling you my lover, and move on.

You watch me;Bleed until I can't breathe, shaking.Fighting onto my knees,And now that I'm without your kisses, I'll be needing stitches!Tripping over myself, achingBegging you to come help, and now that I'm without your kisses I'll be needing stitches!

Kneedle and the thread gotta get you out of my head.Kneedle and the thread gonna wind up dead.Kneedle and the thread gotta get you out of my head.Kneedle and the thread gonna wind up dead.Kneedle and the thread gotta get you out of my head.Kneedle and the thread gonna wind up dead.Kneedle ans the thread gotta get you outta my head get you outta my head!!

You watch me;Bleed until I can't breathe, shaking.Fighting onto my knees,And now that I'm without your kisses, I'll be needing stitches!Tripping over myself, achingBegging you to come help, and now that I'm without your kisses I'll be needing stitches!

I'm without your kisses, I'll be needing stitches!I'm without your kisses, I'll be needing stitches!I'm without your kisses, I'll be needing stitches!

I breathed in and sighed. I walked away from the Kareoke machine and smiled.

"That was... great!" Bill smiled at me.

"Thanks. Good luck."

Bill laughed. "Luck? Who needs it? Besides me."

I gazed at Bill as he held the microphone. I've only ever heard him sing once. But was that really him? Was it Will?

Look at what you've done.Standing still, falling away from me.When it takes so long.Fire's out, what do you want to be?

Now I'm holding on.Myself was never enough for me.Gotta be so strongThere's a power in whatcha doNow every other day I'll be watching you.

Oh. Oh

I'll show you what it feels like now I'm on the outsideOhWe did everything right, now I'm on the outsideI'll show you what it feels like now I'm on the outsideOhWe did everything right, now I'm on the outside

So you give me now a reasonFor me to stay close to you, tell me what lovers doHow are we still breathing? It's never for us to chooseI'll be the strength in you

Now I'm holding on.Myself was never enough for me.Gotta be so strongThere's a power in whatcha doNow every other day I'll be watching you.

Oh. Oh

I'll show you what it feels like now I'm on the outsideOhWe did everything right, now I'm on the outsideI'll show you what it feels like now I'm on the outsideOhWe did everything right, now I'm on the outside

I'll show you what it feels like now I'm on the outsideWe did everything right, now I'm on the outside

Bill bowed and walked to me.

"That was beautiful, Bill." I said, a tear falling down my face.

"Like you~" Bill kissed me.

I kissed him back. " I love you, my dorito~"

"I love you too, my Pine Tree~"
