Bill

I watched the others sleep. I wished I could be resting, too. Instead of staring into the inky darkness that stretched forever.

But I sensed that it was time to do something. And not just because I was itching with boredom. I felt like it was time. Time to wake the others.

Blake

I felt something stirring inside of me. At last, I was awake! My icy casing began to slip into the Void below. I stretched my sore, cramped muscles and warmth began to seep into me.

After being trapped in ice for several millennia, even the bland temperature of the Void felt hot. I wanted to surround myself in the cold again, maybe sleep for another thousand years, but since I was awake, I knew that wasn't an option.

Bill was floating in front of me. I looked to my left to see that Bryan was sitting upright and rubbing his head. Why did Bill wake us up? He probably just got bored. But demons like us were not just something to use for personal entertainment.

"So, what's up Bill?" Bryan questioned.

"The time to fulfill the prophecy approaches," Bill said in his weird deep voice.

"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked. It sounded vaguely familiar, but I guess I forgot whatever it was during the last few thousand years.

"How can you forget? The prophecy we've been expecting our entire lives!" he shouted. His high-pitched, annoying voice had returned, echoing into the nothingness we were trapped in. A glowing blue circle surrounded by symbols formed around him. A pine tree, a question mark, Pac-Man, a bag of ice, scarred heart, glasses, shooting star, llama, star, and a six-fingered hand. Then I remembered. It was the one to break Bill's curse.

"Oh! That one!" Bryan realized. "So does that mean the Ciphers are back in business?" he smirked.

"That's exactly what it means," I said, smiling at my brothers.

Bryan

I had to admit I was really excited to get out of my electric shell. My muscles were still pretty stiff from being trapped in lightning for what seemed like (and easily could've been) eternity. I glanced up at Bill, who was fixing his bow tie.

"What are we waiting for?" I inquired.

"Bill to shape-shift into human form," Blake replied. At those words, Bill morphed into his former self. "Also for you," he added.

"Oh, yeah! Heh heh, sorry..." I trailed off. "Where to?"

Bill groaned. "Gravity Falls!" he and Blake yelled in unison.

I searched my mind for the location of Gravity Falls. Once I found it, I opened the seldom used tunnel through the multiverse that led to our desired point in space.

"After you!" I joked, following my brothers through the dark, eery passageway.

Dipper

"Who's that?" Mabel squealed. Her eyes were lit up like when she saw a guy she liked. I rolled my eyes before following her finger with my vision. It was some tall, pale teenager wearing a white suit with a purple tie, collar, pockets, and buttons. His pants kept the same snow white color, but his black converse broke the trend. His hair was white, too. It kinda reminded me of Gideon, with the suit and the white hair. Except this guy's hung somewhat messily in his face, although it was still brushed neatly.

"Never talk to strangers. Now let's leave before something bad happens," Grunkle Stan stated. He looked a little nervous. It was weird.

Just then, two more guys came down the street and started talking to the one in white.

One of them had completely messy brown hair and a metallic silver suit with turquoise embellishments. The other had neck length blonde hair with small streaks of gold. He wore a black top hat, gold-ish bow tie, and a jet black suit with gold embroidery, along with an eyepatch.

Stan was twiddling his thumbs in anxiety, but Mabel was squeaking like a hyperventilating hamster. Even though they were across the street, I was able to hear them say something about finding Pine Tree and Shooting Star first.

"We should, uh, probably get out of here. Now!" Stan ordered. Then he hurriedly ran away. I wasn't sure what he was headed towards. Just away.

"Well that was weird," Mabel said.

"Yeah," I agreed. I couldn't help but feel suspicious. "Maybe we should get out of here." Seeing Stan so nervous worried me.

"No way! Are you seeing how hot those guys are?" she exclaimed.

"Mabel! Snap out of it! Have you realized a pattern?" I started. "All the guys you liked and 'dated' turned out being something weird and supernatural. The gnomes, Mermando, and I think it's fair to least call Gideon at abnormal." But she was already halfway across the street. Why did this always happen?

Just as Mabel reached the other side of the road, I realized something. When we first ran into Bill, didn't he mention something about a shooting star and a pine tree? I gulped. If this was set up by Bill, then we were in trouble...

Mabel

I was pretty sure my mouth was wide open, but I didn't care. I heard what Dipper said about all of those guys, but I didn't care about that, either.

They seemed like they were glowing. Maybe they were. All of a sudden, one turned around. The one in the black suit. I swear I almost fainted.

"Found Shooting Star!" he announced in a creepily familiar voice. "Now where's Pine Tree?"

The other two dashed over to Dipper, who was almost to this side of the road. He looked kind of confused. I'll admit, I was pretty confused too.

"Here he is!" the one in silver grinned.

The one standing next to me, the one who said something about a shooting star and a pine tree gripped my shoulder.

"Bryan?" he urged.

"Here we go!" the one in the silver exclaimed. I looked over at them. They were still with Dipper, and the one in white was holding his shoulder.

All of a sudden, we were somewhere in the middle of the woods.

Now I knew how I recognized the guy's voice. Vibe cause he wasn't there. In his place was Bill.
