"Mom!" Ciel laughed. His big smile lit up the room as he showed me his power. "Look! Look! I did it! I made a flame, it's just like daddy's!" 

I smiled softly," yeah, if daddy were here, he'd be so proud," I giggled lightly as I patted his head.

"Mom!" Kei yelled from the other room, turning my head, he was covered in blood.

"Kei, what happened to you!?" I asked, running over to him, pulling at his limd gently, just looking for a scratch on my baby.

"N-nothing, it's jam! Saoirse blew it up!" Kei stuttered.

"It's not my fault!" Saoirse panted as she entered the room out of breath. "He said that he wanted to fight, and I wanted lunch!" She yelled, giving Kei the evil eye.

"All right, cut it out, or I'll tell your father," I said with a smirk.

"Tell me what?" Bill asked, entertaining the room.

I looked down at my children with mischief," oh nothing, just the Ciel can make fire now," he said, walking over to him, kissing him on the cheek.

"And this?" He asked playfully pointing to Kie and Saoirse.

"Oh that?" I said sarcastically," that's lunch," I laughed. "Come, here yo— Bill!!" I trailed off.

"Bill!" I screamed, looking into the darkness. He was nowhere, he's gone— why?! Why did he leave me!? Tears filled my eyes, my breathing grew heavy.

"Dipper!" I turned to face... Mabel?

"Your pathetic! Falling in love with a demon!? I hate you!" She screamed at me. I could hear all their voices! Ford's, Stan's, Wendy's, my father and mother— I could hear it all. Them yelling, their screams of pain and hate.

"Pine tree?" I voice spoke to me, I turn to see Bill, the real Bill. "Are you ok? Don't cry, it's just a dream," his voice Soothed me.

I clung to him," Bill, Bill it's really you!" I cried in his chest.

"Not quite, but I'm coming, I swear you'll be safe in my arms soon," he cooed. I nodded as thing because darker.

"Bill?... Bill!" I screamed as he disappeared from my sight.
------------------------

"Bill!" I screamed, reaching for nothing in the air. My body was flooded in a cold sweat, wiping away the sweat, I took deep breaths," It was just a dream, it was just a dream," I sighed.

"Mommy?" Kei tugged on sleeve, he looked terrified.

Tears filled my eyes as I pull him into my embrace– stroking his hair softly," it's ok, it's ok. I'm fine, I'm fine, shhh," I whispered, rocking him back n' forth, "I'm fine, Really. Mommy's fine," I hummed.  It hurt so much to lie to him. I wasn't fine, I was falling apart at the scene, I don't know how much I can take of this– I'm going to lose it soon.

He was soon lulled to sleep," mommy, I'm scared," Saoirse whimpered, squeezing my arm.

"Oh no, not you too..." I whispered. Tears slipped down my face, both she, and Kie started to cry. "Oh no, stop, everything's going to be fine," I whisper, pulling them both close to my chest. "Your father is on his way. You two are so strong, just keep it up a little while longer, and I'm sure when we get home there'll be a 'welcome back' party for all of us," I hummed softly as they calmed down. "You'd like that right?" I asked, they both nodded before drifting off to sleep.

I sighed at the relief of them sleeping, but I wasn't sure. If I stay here any longer– I'll lose it, and only one person has ever seen me lose control, and that was Bill– back when I first turned into a demon.

Shutting my eyes, I let the sweet darkness cloud my mind as I slip into sleep.

------------------------------------

Waking thanks to the light, I moaned softly as I stretched my limbs. "Morning, kids," I yawn.

"Good morning mommy," they said with smiles. Looking at their sweet faces, I smile softly, but pain still pained my chest.

"You up?" A horribly familiar voice asked.

Gritting my teeth, I looked up at him with hate." Hello... father..." I huffed at him with hate.

"Mommy, who's that?" Saoirse asked,

My dad looked stunned," so you never once mentioned any of this?" He asked coldly.

Glaring up at him, I pulled my kids behind me. "They didn't need to know of horrible people I once called family," I said harshly.

"You brat!" He yelled, slamming his fist against the wall, Kie and Saoirse jumped," after all we did– you picked up and left," he yelled.

"Is that all?" I asked flatly.

"No!" He stomped towards me, grabbing the caller on my shirt," you grew up a disrespectful faggot!" His spit flew in my face.

I could feel my blood boil, my teeth sharpening– my eyes turn– "mommy! What's wrong?!" Kei asked, I could feel him shaking.

"Look away," I demanded. Both gasped, shutting their eyes tight. "Don't you dare call my anything like that in front of my kids," I ordered.

"Your not my son, I'll say what I want to scum like you," he scoffed.

"That's it!" I yell, pinning my father to his back, drawing back my claws I— "Dipper!" Mabel screamed, jumping on top of me. "What the hell is—" she was stunned. She finally saw the monster I kept hidden inside, the monster I chose to become.

"Get off me!" I ordered, her grip holding me down tightened.

"No," she said sternly.

"Don't hurt mom!" Saoirse yelled, sending a flame across the room, just barely grazing her.

"Shut it brat!" My father yelled. Saoirse had tears in her eyes as she clung to Kie.

"Don't talk about them like that!" I screamed as I threw Mable to the wall. Jumping to my feet, I scratched my father's face with my claws! His screams were music to my ears, his pleas for mercy were heaven. A smile tugged on my lips," that's it! Cry for me old man! You worthless piece of trash," I laughed, kicking his body as he thrashed on the ground in pain.

"Enough!" Ford yelled, pinning me to the wall." Dipper, you need to calm down!" He ordered, but my blood boiled, my heart raced, it was to much fun.

"Mom?" Kei whispered in fear as he and Saoirse shook in fear.

Pushing Ford of my with all my might, I shuffled over to my children," shhh, it's okay, it's okay. I'm fine, I'm still here," he hushed, patting their heads. They soon stopped shaking, and clung to me as they whaled into my shoulders. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry for scaring you," I held them tightly as everyone left.

"I'm sorry,"

--------------------------------------

"Did you see that?" Mabel asked impatiently." He  moved Ford easily!" She said, pacing back and forth as she chewed on the nail of her thumb.

"It was incredible!" Ford whispered," he moved me with little to nun effort," Ford said in shock, " it's like he actually turned into a demon, but that's not possible," said excitedly yet worriedly. "Unless..." he trailed off.

"Unless what poindexter?" Stan asked impatiently as he took a set in his chair.

"Well... it's not possible unless the human, and demon have a strong enough bond— to help the human survive drinking the devil's blood, but it's never been completely stable... something always go's wrong, and causes them to die soon after, the longest lifespan of one, is a year, but that's it?" Ford said.

The thought was puzzling to everyone.

"No matter how much they try or different ways they drink it, doesn't fully work, and causes the former human body, to have a breakdown," Ford muttered.

"Wait!" Mabel shouted," Dipper! Was that— Did have a— a breakdown?!" She stuttered.

Everyone's eyes widened, and looked to Ford, who the only one not surprised. "No. I don't think that was entirely it, it was more like a spas of hate," Ford spoke." But I can verify that it was a small mental breakdown," he sighed.

"Well then we have to do something!" Pacifica yelled. "He's still family, we can't just let him die!" Tears fell from her eyes.

"Yeah! He may be different now, but he's still my little brother!" Mabel said full of anger and worry.

--------------------------------------

"Mommy, are you ok?"

"Are you getting sick?" Kei and Saoirse asked Dipper over, and over again.

He held his head in his hands," I'm," he coughed," I'll be fine," he said. His face burned, a cold sweat fell over his body, and his sight had become blurred." I'm just a little sick," he chuckled softly.

"I'm going to be all right,"
