Mable looked at Dippers door. The empty plate in font surprised her. It has been almost two weeks since Bill was taken away. And this was the first time he ate.

He never left his room and at first only cried. But then he stopped.

Ford says he's finally coming back to them. That Bills spell is warring off.

But Mable knew better now. She knew Dipper. Something broke in him. And he's coming up with a plan. And whatever it is she will be ready to help him.

She knew it would take time for him to trust her again but she knew that.

Each day she would leave and train herself. With her trusty graveling hook and with a few books on business.

She was not as smart as Dipper. But her personality covers what she has planed. She just needs a few more pieces.

Dipper looked around his room blandly. He knew that Bill was gone. But Demons can't die. At least, not forever.

He had to figure out where Ford sent Bill. And he's going to need to open a portal.

It will be hard to get everything he needed. The books had some answers. Over the years he even made a few of his own.

Ford has been trying to continue his research but with him and Stan leaving after each summer on their boat, and having to watch over him and Mable, he did not have the time.

Dipper knew things. But Demons were the hardest to get info on. But Bill did hint a lot of things about them.

Dipper will see Bill again.

At first he resisted Ford, tried to explain the truth. But he thinks he was put under a spell.

And Dipper can't get to work with Ford watching him like this.

So he's acting like he was in a trance.

Ford walks in look at Dipper with concern that was not needed.

"Dipper. It's me Ford."

Dipper looks up as if confused then eyes him.

"F-ford?"

Ford smiles. "Are you feeling better? You ate today."

Dipper sits up from his bed he was laying on and gives Ford a questiong look.

"I eat everyday. It's strange to find it outside my door, but whatever. More time to read. I figured you or Mable put it their because you knew I was trying to finish my book."

Dipper holds his book up. It was a book he's been working on. Hes re reading it because he was working on this one when Bill came around.

Any clue helps.

Ford checked his mark Dipper questions everything and looks confused each time Bill was mentioned.

Ford is starting to believe the trance. Soon Dipper can get to work.

Mable came back home and smiled jumping around. "Mable juice!" She yells pouring herself a glass.

Stan chuckled as he watched her walk up to him. "Want some?"

"No thanks. That stuff looks like crime for drinks everywhere."

"Oh well, more for me! Hey, Stan? Is Dipper better? I went to check on him and he looked so sad and said he was sorry to me."

Stan was interested in this. "He did?"

"Yeah." As if. He all he dose when she checks on him is glare.

"I'll tell Ford. I'm not supposed to tell you but he thinks the spells gone now."

Mable smiled.

"Dipper, I'm sorry about the pain you're going threw. I just hope you understand I did that to try and help you. But your better now. But don't go anywhere alone."

Dipper smiles. "Don't worry. I understand perfectly."
