Chapter 4: Reflection
Dipper POV
I slowly open my eyes. My head pound. The last thing I remember was going pass an ally way then a sound of breaking glass to my skull and I was out. My vison started to clear up and I notice that I was in my room. I slowly sat up. My head felt like a rock. I gently touch the back of my head and wince. I could feel a bump, tinny pieces of glass, and some of my hair was sticky from dry blood.
I notice that I was in my clothes but my tie was off and the first few button of my shirt where undone. My shoes were off as well, and my suspenders were off my shoulders but hang by my side and my shirt was still tuck in but more baggy than usual.
It was morning. I look at the clock and it was 9:30. I slowly got to my feet with a huge weight still in my head. I walk toward the bathroom. I turn on the water and splash water on my face and even wash out some of the blood from my hair. Then I look at the mirror.
I cried out and backed away, knocking over a vase full of flowers. I share this bathroom with Mabel and she likes the flowers in the bathroom. The vase fell and crash on to the floor. I couldn't believe my eyes. In the mirror where my reflection is supposed to be was another fella. He had blond hair and these light yellow eyes and long gated pupils and he wore this very fancy suit.
"Whoa! Hey calm down!" The fella reply.
"How-how are you talking! How are you even here!" I cried out. "I'm I still dreaming?"
"No...this is real." The fella reply. Then he fixes his tie, "The name's Bill Cipher. This may sound really weird and crazy but right now I'm inside of you."
"W-what?" I stuttered. This was crazy and just plain not normal. "I know this is strange but this is for real life."
"Dry up! This can't be real." I muttered then I rub my eyes and hope that he wasn't there but he was still there.
"Hey, listen...I heard that you need some help. You want to protect your doll sister from nitwits that will just use her. Plus I heard you want to be a mobster to show that you are worth more than a doll piano player."
"How do you know?"
"It doesn't matter how I know the point is that I know and I want to help. Look, remember that little magic thing that Gideon was taking about well the point is that it worked and came true! That is why I'm here."
"How come I don't remember it?" I ask. Bill shrug, "Don't know. So what do you say?"
"What do you mean?"
"Well are you willing to work with me? I could make you the best mobster, the big shot of this city. You will be able to protect your sister and everything will be perfect. You get the protection, glory, fame, and the dolls."
I thought for a moment, "how?" Bill smiled, "Well I can talk to you through mirrors or through you mind. I could even take over your body."
"Whoa what?!?"
"I know a little too fast but don't worry. I'm not going to do nothing dumb and plus you will be able to watch and can jump back in when you need to. I can't jump in unless you let me. I'm too weak to just take over and there is no point of doing it in the first place."
I was feeling uncertain with this. Then Bill sigh, "Look, I want to help. You see I was a huge mobster. So I learn the tricks of how to be a mobster. I could help you. Remember about your sister. With me...you can protect her."
I thought for a moment. "How could you possess my body?" I ask. I wanted to know what I was getting into. Bill gave a smile, "Close your eyes and take a deep breath and relax your mind." I close my eyes and took a deep breath. Then I felt the weight from my head being lifted and pain stop. I felt really light. "Alright open your eyes." I heard Bill said. I open my eyes and I gasp. I was still in the bathroom but everything was reverse. It was like a reflection of the bathroom. Then at the mirror I could see me but my eyes had yellow eyes with long gated pupils. "Whoa, what is going on?" I gasp.
"Right now you are in the mirror, while I'm in your body. You could jump mirror to mirror but only I could see you." Bill explained, "I'm in the real world in your body. Your doll sister or anyone else will see you but it's really me. Now close your eyes again." I close my eyes. Then I felt the weight hit me hard on the head again and the pain came back. I open my eyes and I was back in my own body because I could see Bill in the mirror in his form.
"It is easy. I could talk through your mind and take over your body. You will become the mobster you always wanted and you will be able to protect your dear sister." Bill reply. I was feeling a bit uncertain with this but if it will protect Mabel then I will do anything and being a mobster is just an extra bonus.
"Alright...you got yourself a deal." I reply. Bill smile, "Great...see you around...partner."
Then Bill faded away and now it was my reflection. I raise my hand and my reflection copied me so I knew it was mine.
Oh, I forgot to say this but we should keep this as our little secret. Bill? Yes, it's me in your mind. So we need to keep this as our little secret. Don't tell your sister, family, friends or anyone. They won't believe you or take you seriously and you won't get to be a mobster and to help your sister. Got it? I understand.
Then there was a knock on the bathroom door. I open it and it was Mabel. Mabel came in and hugs me, "oh I'm glad that you are alright! You gave me a heart attack!" Then she backed away and hit me on the shoulder, "Don't you dare scare me like that again!" I rub my arm, "Alright! I won't. I promise." I reply.
"So what happened?" Mabel asks me. "Uh." I started,Just say that you went out for a walk and a couple of goons came up and jump you. "Uh goons came and jumped me. I guess they thought I had money. I was out on a walk to clear my mind. Then I was jumped and got knock out by a glass bottle." I explain. Thanks Bill. Of course!
Mabel gave me a hug, "Well I'm glad that you are alright."
Then Mabel backed away, "Oh Stan wants to talk to you when you have the chance to clean up." "What for?" I ask. Mabel shrug, "Don't know, maybe to see that you are alright."
"Mabel I'm 20 years old. I think I can handle on my own."
"Tell that the Sweeney Dipper. We all know that..."
"I can't take care of myself?"
Mabel got a little quiet, "Well you see Dipper, you can feed, dress, and cloth yourself yes but out in the real world, no you can't and neither can I. Stan and Ford are just here to help." Then Mabel kisses me on the cheek, "Listen I got to go. You clean up and see Stan, alright?" "Fine I got to see Mr. Big Shot." I mumble. "Good."
Then Mabel left.
Damn you baby vamp sister is a tight doll. Really she is very lucky to have those looks.
Yes with her tight looks and her singings all cake sniffers are on the loose and that mean Mabel is in danger because they would want to hurt her.
One of those dolls...Oh well, whoever she lands on he is the luckiest fella in the world and we are going to make sure that happens! Alright clean up so you can see your big shot great uncle. You look all balled up.
Thanks. (Sarcasm)
I did clean up. I took a shower and new clothes. I looked better already even though I still have bruises forming but I look better than before.
I headed to the bar part of our house, and there was Stan and Ford. They were talking. Ford was around, running the bar when Stan is out doing his things but everyone thinks that it is Stan running the show. This was actually Ford's place but then Stan used it and now claims it on his own. This is what you get to have an identical twin brother to cheat you in.
"Ah Dipper!" Stan called out. I gave a small smile as I walked over to them, "I'm glad that you are alright." "Thanks." I reply. "What happened Dipper? You look all balled up? More than a glass bottle did." Ford asks.
"Oh yeah that is what I forgot to also tell you." Stan said.
"You always forget." Ford grumbles.
"Don't worry, I'll explain later or Stan would." I reply. "So Stan what is it that you needed to see me for? Mabel said that you needed to see me and I don't think it is to see if I'm alright...at least not the whole story."
"You see Dipper tonight is going to be a big night. Early in the night you will playing for Mabel, Candy and Grenda. Candy and Grenda are in town and Mabel wants to perform with them before they leave. Of course you have to play for Mabel again and again. As for me there is going to be a big time game in the back with some very important big shots. So I want nobody to interrupt, Dipper." Stan looks at me.
Why does he give me that look? Ah it still gives me the heebie-jeebies. "Alright! Well what if...I know the game and I want to play?" I ask. Both Stan and Ford laugh.
*Don't worry about their laughs partner. I know every gambling game there is on a table.*
"Oh Dipper, you and your keen humor, always makes me smile." Stan laughs.
"But it isn't a joke to keen you Stan." I said strongly.
They stop laughing for a moment, "Oh yeah! I don't think so kid that you could play." Ford reply. "And how! Alright Dipper here is the deal. Whenever you are done playing the piano like a good kid you are, and you poke your head and if you can say what the game is...then you can play but we aren't going to go easy on you so once you are out of money then you are out. Got it?" Stan added. I nod my head, "I understand."
Stan pats me on the back, which really hurt, "Atta boy, now go do something." Then Stan left. Ford sighs, "What are we going to do with that man?"
"I don't know he's your brother." I reply. Ford gave a small smile, "you slay me, Stanley was right about your keen humor. It always brings a smile." Then Ford pats me on the back harder, which hurts even more, and he left. I rub my back.
Don't worry, soon they won't think like that. Soon they won't push you around like that. You won't be the jokester; you will be the big cheese of all of Gravity Falls.
For this is only the beginning.....Bwahaha!
