Chapter 15: Powers
Yay! Another Update!
-----Dipper's POV-----
"Ah ha! I got you again!" Nova exclaimed as she sent a small purple crystal into Luffy's back.
He groaned and pulled it out. "Yes.. Exactly like the 7 other times! Would you quit it! Those crystals are sharp!"
Sara led Nova away before any more damage could be done. I sighed and laned against a tree. Nova had been going at Luffy ever since she hit him when his back was turned. We already had a firn grasp on the fact that Luffy's Haki doesn't work unless he's paying attention.. Why he hasn't used it again is beyond my knowledge. Of course quite a bit with these freaks is beyond my knowledge. Nix and Robin were to the side talking about the possible places we were even going. None of us had any clue. Jack and Danny were talking about.. something, Chopper was talking to Luffy, so were Sara and Nova. Nobody noticed me slip away.
I walked a little ways before stopping and leaning against a tree and pulling out the #3 Journal. I started looking at all the pages again. About all the supernaturals of Gravity Falls.
"Why did I have that dream? There is nothing special about me!" I said to myself. I kicked a small stone and watched as it slowed to a stop in mid air. The rest of the world went grey around me.
"I'd beg to differ, Pinetree!" an all too familiar voice boomed.
"Bill." I closed the book and pushed it into my vest. "What do you want?"
"Calm down Pinetree." He said as he appeared, twirling his cane. "I simply came to help you."
"Help me?" How dumb does he think I am?"
"Not dumb at all.. Not dumb enough to pass up an offer to reveal some of the truth." Crap.. I can forget he can read minds... "Let's cut to the chase. You hate not being able to fit in. You're afraid that they'll toss you to the curb."
An image flashed in my mind of the others leaving me in the middle of the forest. When it went away the dream demon continued.
"The truth is that you hold incredible power, just waiting to be awoken! Why do you think I've tried to get the Journal away from you?"
"Power?"
"Yep! And I can show it to ya! All you have to do is read this!" A paper popped up in my hand.
"What does this do?" staring at the words that looked in a different language.
"I promise it won't affect you pr the others directly. And you can choose to say it. I won't force ya, I won't even bind you to your deal if you do agree! But that peice of paper can reveal quite a bit about you, Pinetree."
I stared down at the little scrap of paper in my hand. The words looked so tempting to say, especially if what Bill says is true. Then, my mouth acted before my mind.
"Demon somniorum verti solet , quando de nouo . Verum esto , limites." When I looked up, everything was in color. And instead of a floating yellow triangle, there was a tall blonde man. The man was in a yellow suit with tails. He had a top hat, bow tie, and an eyepatch covering one of his piercing yellow eyes. He was holding a black cane.
"Whoa-hoa-hoa!" The man said, looking at his hands. He created a blue flame in his right hand.
"Wait.. Bill!?" My mind finally making the connection.
He looked at me with his piercing gaze and started to float around me, keeping perfect posture. "Why thanks, Pinetree" His voice sounded slightly more normal than it used to. "Now I am able to exit the mindscape whenever I want!"
"What? You promised that it wouldn't affect me other than showing me the truth!"
"I said it wouldn't affect you directly, and it won't as long as you stay out of my way."
"But.. It still doesn't explain anything like you said it would!" My voice cracked in the middle of that.
He landed down in front of me again. "You really are dumb, aren't you Pinetree? Do you not realize what you just did? You just did something that not even I am capable of as of yet! And I've been a demon for as long as I can remember!"
"And that is what?" My voice was shaky as the tall human Bill loomed over me.
He straightened up, still looking down at me. "You just turned a dream demon into a human, or gave me a human form to become. Not only that, but you forced me out of the mindscape to turn me into a human form. There is very advanced demon abilities that lay underneath that human flesh of yours, Pinetree." At my confused and terrified face, he dressed his with a smirk before a bright light flashed, leaving me temporarily blind. He was gone.
Demon abilities... Was he a demon? What was going on!? I ran back through the forest towards the other. I was both excited that I had abilities stronger than Bill, but I was also terrified that I was anything like that monster... And the fact that I had just helped him enter my world.
