The Puppet Strings In The Dark (3)

Chapter 6, Dipper

Bill is still locked in his room. I'm eating dinner, kinda lonely and depressed. Mabel is down I the dumps as well.
"I need to talk to you two." Great unkle Ford says quietly. We both perk up.
"That siren was a demon siren. It scrambles their minds, makes them confused and out of control. be careful around those two for the next few days. Understood?" We both nod. I get what he's saying. If bill is out if control he could be dangerous. Or he could go back to his old ways. I look at Mabel. She looks like she is about to cry. I wrap my arm around her.
"I'm not hungry anymore" she mumbles and pushes her plate away.
"Lets just go to bed." I say. She gets up and walks off, leaving her food. I pick up both of our plates and put them away, then I run after her.
"Mabel!" I yell. She just keeps going. I find her upstairs, curled up on her bed, tucked into her sweater.
"Mabel?" I ask.
"Mabel's not here at the moment." She says. I sit next to her.
"Everything is going to be okay." I encourage her.
"They are in pain Dipper." She whines.
"Last time I checked, bill enjoyed it. Look Mabel, they are the strongest people we know. They'll be fine." I get up to get ready for bed. Mabel uncurls and does the same. She lays in my bed. I roll my eyes, turn off the lights, and lay behind her.
"I don't want to sleep alone." She mumbles.
"Why do you think I'm letting you lay hear?" She curls up. I quickly fall asleep.
.................
I wake up the next morning, with Mabel curled under my arm. I sit up.
"Mabel" I shake her. She groans.
"Do you want to find out if will is okay or not?" I ask. She bolts upright. We get out if bed and run downstairs. Everybody is at the table. Bill is looking into a cup of coffee that his hands are wrapped around. His eyes are glowing, and he looks Mad. Will, is just sitting there, staring off into space, his eyes are also glowing. I look at Mabel. She looks worried. Stan and Ford are up and about making food. Well, Stan is. Ford is just chatting quietly.
"Bill?" I ask. Everyone except for will looks at me. Bill slowly looks up.
"Yes pine tree?" Mabel grabs my hand.
"A-are you okay?" I ask. He sighs and looks back down at his cup. I look at will. He has snapped back into reality and is looking at bill. Bill tilts his head and looks at his brother. They have a silent conversation. bill looks back down.
"Sorry kid, just, not in the mood to talk today." I look down.
"Its okay." I say. I'm suddenly not hungry anymore. Mabel looks at me. I just walk off, i go outside, and i keep walking. Mabel doesn't follow me.
