It's been a while since I updated hehehe… Sorry about that. ENJOY CHAPTER 10! I've been waiting to write this chapter ;)

Danny

"So all I have to do is give you a puppet." I asked confused.

"Yup, pretty simple right?" He answered. Bill had claimed that he would give me all the information I need to complete my assignment and stop whatever he and Dan are planning. This is what I've been searching for ever since I arrived here in Gravity Falls and my enemy was offering it to me at the cost of a puppet.

"Oh, It's just…"

"Yes, what is?

"Well why would you of all people give me information on how I should stop you, and all it would cost me is a puppet? It seems…"

"insane?" Bill completed my sentence.

"Yeah."

"Well, I could go into why I'm doing this but I'm sure all you need to know is the information I'm offering. Besides I'm the one with leverage in this conversation. I don't have to tell you anything I don't want to." Bill pointed out.

"Ok, how do I know you're not tricking me?" I inquired.

"You'll just have to trust me."

"Ha, as if I'd trust you."

"Well how would you know that I'm telling the truth then?"

"That's a good point." I admitted.

"Listen kid, the information that I'm offering to you may or may not be valuable, but consider the stakes. All I'm asking for is a puppet, even if the information I'll give you is fake, all you would lose is a puppet. This is the deal of a lifetime, if I were you I'd take it." He's right. I've tried so hard and I've failed to find information. A chance to know everything about them and a price of barely any importance. This opportunity will never come again.

"Ok, I accept your deal." I said my voice dripping with uncertainty. He held his hand out and engulfed it in bright blue flames. Even though he doesn't have a mouth I can see him with a maniacal smile plastered across his face. Slowly I brought my hand to his and hesitated to grip it. The fire grew even larger, I tried not to show that I was scared. "So what puppet do you want?"

"Hmmmm I think I'll choose… YOU" (when you try not to use the same lines the show does) His eye flash a blood red and his voice had an ominous echo.

"What?" I said before I felt his hand pull me with incredible force. I drifted into the air spinning out of control. When I finally control again I look back in the direction from which I came and was astonished to see me lying on the ground. I looked down at my hands to see that I could see through them, just like when I got intangible. "What's going on? What did you do to me?" Slowly my limp body began to rise from the ground. It's head slowly rose up and the eyelid opened to reveal bright yellow eyes.

"SORRY KID BT YOU'RE MY PUPPET NOW!" He said followed by a maniacal laugh. (I tried ok, don't judge me). "I've always wanted to inhabit this body." He said as he attempted to transform into Danny Phantom. The bright rings appeared around his waist and moved up to his head and down to his feet. "Wow, these are some pretty neat powers you got here kid. It's a shame you have to only use them for good."

"I would never my powers for evil, if this world needs a hero I'm that pers- "

"Ugh, see this is why I like Dan better." Bill interrupted. I let out a sigh of frustration.

"I don't know what your plan is but your plan is but you're not getting away with it!" I shouted.

"Haha you think you can stop me? I have control over your body, there's nothing you can do. I already won this fight." He said. "Now let's see what these powers can do." He said before turning intangible and flying through the roof.

"Come back here!" I yelled as I flew up after him. With the form I was in now, I was basically just a regular ghost. I didn't have any powers, I couldn't do anything, I couldn't even be seen by anyone else. I don't know what he did to me or how exactly he did it. He could do whatever he wanted with the body, it was basically his own puppet. I needed to get it back before he did anything crazy with it. Out of all the things he could do the thing that worried me the most was if he chose to expose my secret to Dipper and Mabel, if they found out, they would never trust me again.

"Well, I would love to learn more these powers but I've things to do. Bye kid, good luck trying to stop me." With that he flew off into the distance, an evil laugh echoing as he traveled.

It was still dark outside that day, Mabel and Dipper had been downstairs the entire time, oblivious to the current situation. I would like to keep it that way and handle this myself. I'm not going to risk them possibly of them finding out my secret. I'll have to act fast before they notice that gone. I flew after him to the furthest I could go. But he turned invisible while he was flying, he must have known that I was following him. I headed back to the Mystery Shack and thought of a way to get my body back. I didn't sleep that night, probably because I didn't have a body so I couldn't get tired. I'll have to find a way to convince Mabel and Dipper that nothing happened to me before they start looking for me. But how am I going to do that if I can't even communicate with them.

Dipper

"Dipper! Have you seen Danny? I want to show him that I'm completely healed." An excited Mabel yelled.

"I don't know where he went Mabel but I'm sure he'll show up." I reassured. Danny never showed up in the morning and we have no idea where he went. Mabel was especially worried about him since she's still love-struck by him. I however know he's going to fine, if he can handle the weirdness of Gravity Falls then he can handle anything. But still you help but be slightly worried about a friend as close a Danny.

"Hey Dipper, if Danny doesn't show up can we look for him?" Mabel asked.

"I guess so." I only said that so she wouldn't worry about where he is all the time. I thought it was a good idea, until she literally asked every ten minutes if we could go look for him.

"Hey Dipper can we go look for Danny?" Mabel asked with hopeful eyes.

"Mabel, you ask every ten minutes if we can go look for him." I complained.

"But he may be in danger." Mabel whined. I sighed in frustration.

"Ok fine." I looked at the clock. "If he isn't back by noon then we'll look for him."

"Can we look for him at ten instead?"

"Mabel it'll be ten in ten minutes."

"Yeah?"

"Mabel no."

"Mabel yes."

"Mabel!"

"Fine, we'll look for him at noon." She said and went back up the stairs. It's been an hour since we woke up and of course Danny still hasn't shown up. I have to admit that I'm kind of worried about him, I hope he's ok. Then the doorbell rang. I walked to the door and answered it.

"Hey Dipper." Danny said with a smile.

"Hi Danny, where have you been? Mabel's worried sick."

"Yeah, sorry about that." He said.

"Anyways come in, I should probably tell Mabel to stop freaking out."

"Don't worry, I'll tell her."

"Ok, but she'll probably keep asking where you were, you know how stubborn she is." She's not the only one whose curious about where he went. I'd have to bring the answer out of him somehow.

"Yeah I know." He walked in and up the stairs. A couple seconds after he reached the top you could hear Mabel screaming Danny's name, at least she's not worried anymore.

I would ask Danny upfront where he was but he might lie. I trust Danny pretty well but he's still very mysterious. I'd have to find another way, one where I know for sure that h wouldn't lie. But what? I looked in the journal for a solution. After a couple minutes of searching I found a truth spell that might work. It said that I'd have to get a glass cup and place it on top of a circle with a curved symbol inside of it. Inside of the cup there has to be his DNA, a mushroom that could only be found in the forest in Gravity Falls, and exactly fifty grains of sugar. I set out to get the necessary ingredients.

The DNA was pretty simple, I just plucked one of his hairs when he wasn't looking, it was weird, he didn't even respond when I plucked it. The mushroom was surprisingly difficult to find; it was quite rare. But the fifty grains of sugar were the worst. Have you ever tried to count fifty small grains of sugar, it took a painstakingly long amount of time. I had to count it, recount it, and recount it again. Anyways after I got all the ingredients I drew the symbol on the table in the kitchen and placed the glass cup filled with water on it and carefully placed the ingredients in the cup. When I placed the final ingredient in the cup the ring and the symbol inside of it emitted a blinding light that lasted for a couple of seconds. Once it was done the items disappeared and the water looked like normal untouched water. I removed the glass from the ring and erased the ring and symbol from the table, no one needed to know about this. It was time to have a little chat. Danny was still watching TV from when I stole one of his hairs. Ever since he came back he's been sort of unresponsive.

"Hey Danny, how are you doing?" I asked hiding my intentions.

"Pretty good, and you?"

"I'm Good." I handed him the glass of what appeared to be just water. He accepted and drank all the water in only a couple gulps. "Anyways…" I said awkwardly responding to the unusual speed he drank the truth serum. "I have a question for you."

"What is it?"

"Where did you go this morning?" I inquired.

"Well, I wanted to find more information on this city, I thought that maybe if I knew a little more then I could be a little more useful to you guys." He sincerely said. I wasn't expecting him to have that kind of answer, and it's not like he could be lying.

"Oh, well why did you do it alone."

"Well… You know, you guys are only twelve and I'm fourteen and yet it seems like I'm the burden here. I just wanted to do something to prove that I could be just as good as you guys." He said awkwardly looking to the side.

"Danny you're not a burden, if it weren't for you we could have been in even more danger and possible even more injured." I said. It's true, if it weren't for him we could have sustained injuries that would have landed Mabel and I in the hospital, and of course Stan wouldn't spend his money on a doctor so he'd probably try to heal us himself, which would never end well. "Thank you for helping Mabel and I in our investigations. We really appreciate it."

"Thank you Dipper."

"No problem, I'm going to go see how Mabel's doing."

"Ok." He continued to watch TV and went back to the mindless state the he was in before. Something feels off about what he said. I mean it's normal to feel that you're not good enough especially compared to younger people. But I never expected for that to be his reason. Well I guess there's no point in worrying about it. I used a truth serum so he had to be telling the truth. With that in mind I went upstairs and checked up on Mabel who was knitting another one of her sweaters while listening to music and singing along.

"Hey Mabel."

"Sup Bro." she said in an overly happy mood. It's nice to have a sister who has such a positive personality. We talked about what we should do tomorrow, which was surprisingly simple since every day was a new adventure.

(TIME WARP)

Bill

The kid tried to use a truth serum on me, next time he tries to do something in secret he shouldn't do it in the kitchen. But it's not like I needed to know he was doing it anyway, I could taste it. Well it's more like I could feel it when I touched the glass. I was upstairs in one of the rooms no one else was in. This is where Danny usually stayed while I inhabited his body.

"Ugh, you have no idea how boring it is to pretend to be a fourteen-year-old." I complained. He looked up and glared at me.

"Why can't you just leave me alone." I said.

"Because you're just so fun to bother." I said playfully, he just rolled his eyes. "Can you believe how gullible humans are? I mean, I just wanted to do something to prove that I could be just as good as you guys. I'm such a burden." I said in a mocking tone followed by a laugh.

"You'll never get away with this Bill!" he yelled. I chuckled

"I've already won this battle and there's nothing you can do to stop me from winning the war."

I know I suck, I mean how many months has it been? Well as you could guess I didn't get a new laptop for Christmas but now allow myself to use my mom's laptop whenever I want. If she complains then I just remind her how this is only because you didn't get me a laptop. But it's fine and she doesn't really complain. Welp I'll see you wonderful people next time BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
